under fame

Jiang Xiaoyu has been hiding from Lu Huai since the Jiangxian banquet that day, and Lu Huai also consciously visits the set occasionally, and leaves after chatting with Director Zhang, neither deliberately avoiding nor showing up too much.When he was free, he wandered around the small town, and at night he took Zhang Li for a walk in a nice place where he had stepped on. After a few days, he almost felt comfortable living in seclusion, as if the two of them belonged to this small town. permanent residents.As the filming draws to a close, Lu Huai actually develops an inseparable attachment to this small town, which is somewhat similar to Zhang Lipo's.

However, hallucinations are hallucinations after all. There are still 5 days before Lu Huai's scheduled return trip. Zhang Yu's phone call at one o'clock in the morning not only wakes him up from the hallucination, but also completely wakes him up.

Zhang Yu is a gold medal manager who never bothers her boss with trivial matters. She can take care of all the affairs of the studio with one hand. Lu Huai and her have been both artists and managers for many years, and they are also partners.Calling in the middle of the night is a very unusual thing. Lu Huai was awakened by the ringtone of the mobile phone. When he saw Zhang Yu, he frowned. However, seeing Zhang Li who slipped back every morning by his side was still sleeping, he immediately picked up the phone Hide in the toilet.

"Lu Huai, no matter where you are or what you are doing, come back right away." Zhang Yu's voice was extremely low, but he couldn't hide his mood swings, obviously anxious and nervous.

Lu Huai's heart almost tensed when he heard this sound. Zhang Yu has never been calm, and has never shown such a tone.

"what happened?"

"I bought you a plane ticket. Now go to the airport and take the 5:[-] a.m. flight back to Beijing." Zhang Yu on the other end took a long breath, "Go straight to the company when you come back, and I will call all the colleagues in public relations back for a meeting in the morning .”

"Sister Yu, what's the matter?" After hearing this, Lu Huai started to walk out, holding the phone in one hand and packing the luggage in the other.

"Someone took pictures of you and Zhang Li." Zhang Yu was silent for a while after speaking.

Lu Huai's hands and feet stopped immediately, and was chopped from head to toe by her words, leaving only a mess of brains that could not think, "How could it be..."

"I wanted to wait until you got back to Beijing. I was afraid that you would be in a hurry on the road. Editor Yu told me about it. At present, no one knows about it except for a few entertainment media editors. You must come back quickly and find a way to control it." The situation!" Zhang Yu lowered his voice again, "Is Zhang Li with you? Don't let him know."

Without Zhang Yu's confession, Lu Huai would not let Zhang Li know, for fear of affecting his filming status.Although Zhang Yu didn't want him to tell Zhang Li for a different reason than himself, there is no doubt that everyone agrees on this matter.

"I see, I'm going to the airport right away." Lu Huai put down the phone and spoke calmly, but his beating heart hadn't calmed down yet.He is usually very tidy and orderly, his daily necessities are sorted into categories, and his luggage is packed very quickly, and he packs everything into the suitcase in less than 5 minutes.However, Zhang Yu's bomb-like phone call made his whole body stand on end. In order to calm down and drive, he took a cigarette from the pocket of his coat, sat on the edge of the bed and smoked it, and looked at the sleeping Zhang Li.

What photos were taken?Who took it?How did you get it?How would the media know?What if the situation is out of control?

There are too many questions, and it is impossible to answer these questions on your own without seeing the photos.Lu Huai finished smoking a cigarette, calmed down, bent down and kissed the sleeping man.

In deep sleep, Zhang Li even smiled because of the kiss, then rolled over and continued to sleep without opening his eyelids.

The child-like sleeping face with a smile was so pretty, Lu Huai's heart skipped a beat, and at that moment he even felt that he didn't want to deal with such a big crisis, and really wanted to lie down and hug this person to finish the sleep.

However, he is not such a willful person.After pressing a hotel note by the bed, he took his luggage and set off.

In the early morning of December, the wind and humidity in the south invaded, and the wind in the north was chilly.

When Lu Huai landed, it was the morning rush hour for work, so Zhang Yu drove a car and waited for him at the airport early in the morning.When he got into Zhang Yu's car with the southern moisture that hadn't evaporated from his coat, the other party's expression made him quickly realize the difficulty of the accident.

Zhang Yu started the huge SUV slowly, and said in a low voice to the accompaniment of the engine sound, "Lu Huai, I have no idea about this matter."

Lu Huai didn't sit in the back seat, he sat in the passenger seat, stretched out his left hand and pressed Zhang Yu's hand holding the steering wheel heavily, "Sister Yu, do you want me to drive?"

"No. You need to tidy yourself up." Zhang Yu coughed, picked up the espresso coffee beside her and took a big sip. She obviously hadn't slept all night, but she was very nervous.

"Have you offended anyone?" Zhang Yu put down the coffee, put his hands on the steering wheel again, closed his eyes and took a deep breath.No matter where the capital is, it is red now, so you have to be prepared to restrain your road rage in extreme anxiety, otherwise you will be rear-ended at any time.She tried her best to keep a calm tone and said, "My intuition is that this is definitely done by my colleagues."

"Sister Yu, I can assure you that I didn't offend you intentionally. But I can't say anything about offending you unintentionally."

Zhang Yu glanced at him quickly, "There is a mask in the storage box in front of the car, take it out and apply one now."

Lu Huai: "..."

Zhang Yu: "You must be ready to face the media with a good image at any time. I can't guarantee how the situation will develop now."

Lu Huai was startled, but followed her advice and took out a mask, tearing open the package and saying, "Sister Yu, I've caused you trouble."

"What bastard talk?" Zhang Yu dissatisfied, "How many years have I worked with you, what relationship do I have with you? Do you want to say such things?"

Lu Huai smiled lightly, "I still have to say it."

Zhang Yu waited for him to put on the mask, and said slowly, "This matter is very complicated. Yu Bian received an email yesterday, and the other party said that they had definite evidence that you and Zhang Li were a couple. It was a photo, but what exactly was photographed?" No. The other party said that if their magazine wanted an exclusive, they would pay him 500 million to buy it."

Lu Huai gasped, "What!"

After being shocked, Lu Huai immediately felt that something was wrong, "You said it was done by my peers? My peers would not do this. If I want to do it, I can directly post it on Weibo and gossip forums. Why do I need a magazine to sell it? This is a wild paparazzi. "

Zhang Yu said coldly, "That's right. But the place where you filmed, a small county-level city, where can you find a full-time paparazzi? You may not get a star in ten years."

Lu Huai immediately patted the armrest of the seat heavily, "The fuck is looking for paparazzi to follow me!"

"That's right." Zhang Yu replied quickly, "There is only one explanation for this matter. The colleague hired someone to follow you, but the photos he took exceeded his imagination. The paparazzi demanded a high price from the person who hired him, but the other party couldn't afford it. So the paparazzi switched targets."

Lu Huai grasped the armrest tightly, and the leather chair made an unpleasant rubbing sound.

"Lu Huai, it's probably not a paparazzi." Zhang Yu sighed.

Lu Huai immediately understood what she meant. In the past few years, the media has been impacted by various new communication methods. It is very unrealistic to buy a photo for 500 million yuan.It is impossible for paparazzi to be unaware of this business. In general, a sneak photo will only cost a few thousand, at most tens of thousands.So who is it that does not hesitate to use illegal channels to follow and secretly film him?

"I/fuck his grandpa!" Lu Huai was furious.

"Calm down." Zhang Yu's hands on the steering wheel are steady, "I don't know who the other party is, probably a private detective, but he certainly doesn't know the media situation. He contacted several media, but until now This photo has not been exposed yet, which shows that no editor-in-chief dares to make a decision to spend this money immediately."

Zhang Yu paused, and then said, "I've made it this far, this person will definitely not give up easily, what kind of stars are you and Zhang Li? How much economic value is this photo? He should have a judgment, otherwise he won't Kick out his employer."

Lu Huai snorted coldly, "If the media doesn't buy it, they will definitely blackmail Xingchen and me."

"According to common sense, he will start from the big to the small." Zhang Yu said, "Xingchen must be next."

"You..." Lu Huai suddenly understood why Zhang Yu asked him not to tell Zhang Li yet.

"Xingchen will never pay this money." Zhang Yu almost gritted his teeth and said, "I know them very well, and they will not set this precedent. First, people who do this kind of thing cannot talk to him about professional ethics. Now that he has left behind his original employer, how can he guarantee that he will not renege on his promise and sell the photos again after buying them. Second, Xingchen has too many artists, and Zhang Li’s contract is about to expire, will he renew his contract? It’s all a problem, they won’t make uncertain deals. Third, the Star PR team is very powerful, if they find out about this, they will sort out a PR draft as soon as possible.”

Lu Huai already knew what she was going to say next, so he sighed.

"Lu Huai, Xingchen's public relations draft will only protect its own artists. They have done countless public relations crises over the years, black can be said to be white, and the public opinion resources are not comparable to ours. If they take the lead..." Zhang Yu Speaking of this, the mood was already quite calm, but he paused, "How much do you...love him?"

Lu Huai put on the mask and closed his eyes. At this moment, he felt that he was more ridiculous than ever before.Zhang Yu didn't continue to speak, but he heard Zhang Yu's implication.

How much do you love him, do you love him so much that you wait for the caliber of the stars to be released first, and put yourself in a passive position?

How much do you love him, do you love him so much that you don’t care about your future, years of hard work, the pressure of public opinion, or your favorite acting career?

how much do you love him

Lu Huai smiled lightly, and said firmly, "Sister Yu, wait for the caliber of the stars."

Zhang Yu's driving hand patted the steering wheel imperceptibly. Although it was expected, it was still beyond reason. She couldn't help but speak louder, "Lu Huai, there are nearly twenty employees in our studio. Your personal income is The backbone of the studio."

"I'm sorry, Sister Yu." Lu Huai's voice was steady, "I will do my best to protect them, but Zhang Li, I must protect them."

"Lu Huai, you wanted to be an actor back then, and your father almost kicked you out of your home. Now this incident is likely to ruin your career for the rest of your life, and you will never be able to act. And how will your family react when they find out about this? , don’t you care? What kind of family is your family and what impact will it have, do you have any idea?”

"It's my fault for not being careful. I lost my vigilance after staying in a small city for a few days. I deserve it, and I should pay the price." Lu Huai said coldly, "Sister Yu, I know the seriousness of this matter, but, Please wait for the caliber of the stars."

After Lu Huai finished speaking, there was silence in the car, Zhang Yu stopped talking, and the breathing of the two intertwined.After a while, Lu Huai's cell phone rang.Zhang Yu glanced at it, and there were three large characters on the screen of the phone, "Little Pear".

Zhang Yu: "..."

Lu Huai pulled off the mask, as if ready, quickly changed his voice, "Are you awake?"

The other party paused before saying, "I woke up at five o'clock, and I called you after you landed. Why did you leave in the middle of the night? What happened?"

"The company has something to do." Lu Huai said calmly, "There was a mistake in a film contract, and I had to rush back to deal with it."

Zhang Li on the other end asked nervously, "Is it a big problem?"
