025

The temperature difference between day and night in Jiangcheng is too large. During the day, it is still sunny and sunny. At night, it is overcast and windy. All the crew members are wrapped in down jackets and padded jackets.

Lu Mengxin only wore a windbreaker when he went out in the morning. At night, the cold wind was howling. His teeth were chattering, and he hid in the car after a short time.

It was already ten o'clock at night after An Yuan finished filming, when he walked out of the set, he saw Lu Mengxin's car parked at the main entrance, he stepped forward and knocked on the car window.

Lu Mengxin rolled down the glass, and the two looked at each other. He asked, "Have you finished the filming?" He raised his wrist while speaking, "It's past ten o'clock?"

An Yuan responded, "I just finished filming, and I'm about to leave." Then, he looked at his compartment, "Is it convenient for you? Give me a ride?"

"Okay." Lu Mengxin unlocked the car, An Yuan walked around and got on the co-pilot.

"Ready to go home?" Lu Mengxin started the car, asked the people on the side for their opinions, and looked back at him, Anyuan looked tired and sleepy.

At that moment, he fought back his drowsiness and replied, "I'm a little hungry, how about going to have some supper?"

The car drove out of the set and passed a corner, and the figures of several actors and assistants flashed in front of the car.

Lu Mengxin recognized the heroine Mu Xinwei standing in the front, the car drove past Mu Xinwei, and a car parked beside the road caught his attention.

"What do you want to eat? Just right, I have some things to discuss with you." Lu Mengxin turned back and said to the person in the co-pilot.

An Yuan cheered up, "Why don't you go and have some barbecue, I'll trouble you to take me back to the hotel if it's late."

Lu Mengxin nodded, "It's a trivial matter." He turned his head and looked at the person beside him, "Are you tired? Why don't you take a rest first, and I'll call you when we arrive."

An Yuan fell on the passenger seat and squinted for a while, then Lu Mengxin drove the car to the night market in the center of Hengyang County.

It is always very lively at night, with night snack stalls and barbecue stalls lining the entire street.

Lu Mengxin parked the car and woke up An Yuan who was sleeping. The two got out of the car and found a vacant barbecue stall to sit down.

An Yuan wiped his face, he seemed not as sleepy as before, and asked him now: "Just now you said you had something serious to discuss with me, what's going on?"

After Lu Mengxin finished ordering, he handed over the menu to the stall owner, and turned around to discuss the business with An Yuan: "That's it... I will be in charge of your follow-up work for a while, this is the intention of the boss of our company..." He After a pause, he glanced at An Yuan's expression, seeing that he didn't say a word, he just said: "I've thought about it, if you think it's unacceptable, then I'll bring it up to him later, you know... you two For this new drama, the investors are Shenghui Media..."

An Yuan listened to his words in silence, and finally said with a smile: "It's just a small matter, it's easy to say... Actually, you don't need to explain, I understand that these are all gimmicks of the production company. If you want to stir up my news, take this opportunity I also understand the hot topic of the two dramas." At this point, he couldn't help sighing, "Unfortunately, with my current popularity, the news is not so hyped, after all, I am not the leading actor ..."

Lu Mengxin felt a stab in his heart, knowing that what he said was the truth, and he was powerless to refute it, so he could only comfort him: "Are you concerned about Yan Jiashan? Don't worry about this... He is a contracted artist under Junlan Film and Television, relatively speaking Not as tall as you..."

An Yuan smiled helplessly, "Xiao Lu... didn't you understand what I mean?" He said, "Why Yan Jiashan got this role, you and I know it well. You really think it's that simple ? I'm afraid this is just the beginning..."

After supper, it was almost early morning, Lu Mengxin was responsible for driving An Yuan back to the set.

After An Yuan said those words, he seemed unhappy, and then drank two more glasses. When he got into the car, he was slightly drunk, and said to the people beside him: "Ma, please take me home."

Lu Mengxin was puzzled, and asked: "You have a scene to shoot tomorrow morning, can you make it when you go home?"

An Yuan shook his head and ignored him, his face flushed bright red, he drank a lot, and was a little delirious.

Naturally, Lu Mengxin didn't dare to delay, since he had already spoken, he would be good to the end and drove back to his home in the neighboring city of Anyuan.

Anyuan whimpered and whimpered along the way, and seemed to be in a bad mood. When he reached his destination, before anyone could stop the car, he hurriedly opened the car door and ran down, bent down hugging a tree trunk at the corner of the street, and vomited.

Lu Mengxin hurriedly stepped forward and said with concern: "Are you okay? I really shouldn't have made you drink so much, come... I'll help you go back."

After An Yuan vomited cleanly, he felt much more comfortable, and said to Lu Mengxin, "No need, we're at the door." He pushed the man back a few steps, "Thank you for today, let's go back."

Lu Mengxin's hand that was raised in the air had no choice but to retract, then turned to An Yuan and said: "Then be careful, I'll see you go in before leaving."

An Yuan only left him a back view, waved his hand without looking back, and walked towards the gate of his house.

Lu Mengxin got into the car, seeing that he had arrived home safely, his heart was settled, he started the car again, lightly stepped on the accelerator, and drove away.

After being baptized by the cold wind all night and vomiting profusely afterwards, An Yuan failed the test and fell ill the next day.

It was dawn in the morning, and he felt dizzy. Subconsciously, he knew that he might have a fever, so he reached out to touch the phone next to the bed and opened the address book.

The first text message was sent to the agent, expressing that he was sick, and today’s scene might be delayed, so he could not shoot as scheduled; the text message sent to Lai Songcheng the next day also explained the situation, and only expressed his apology at the end; the last text message, He sent it to Lu Mengxin and asked him for help.

Lu Mengxin only slept for more than four hours a night, and was still asleep when he received the text message. "Ding Dong——" a notification sound woke him up from his dream.

In a daze, he turned on the phone and took a look, then got up and woke up Chen Fei who was beside him.

"Brother Meng... What time is it, are you going on a mission?" Fade Chen looked at him sleepily, rubbed his cheeks, trying to drive away his drowsiness.

Lu Mengxin had already gotten up to change clothes, and at this moment he only replied: "An Yuan is ill, you should get up quickly... let's go to his house to see the situation."

Fade Chen slowly got up, the basement was damp and cold, and there was another cold air this morning. As soon as he lifted the quilt, he felt goosebumps stand on end, and he muttered to himself: "Why is Anyuan You have to take care of big and small things... It's not his nanny..."

Lu Mengxin didn't have time to explain to him, so after hastily washing up, he dragged Fade Chen out the door.

The car sped all the way to Anyuan's home.

Fade Chen had never seen him drive so fast. At this moment, he grabbed the doorknob beside him with both hands, and said tremblingly: "Meng, brother Meng...you drive slowly, there is a speed test ahead, and six points will be deducted for a ticket..."

Having said that, Lu Mengxin didn't intend to slow down at all.

The car soon arrived at the gate of the community. Lu Mengxin suddenly remembered an important matter, and turned around to tell the people beside him, "Get out of the car first, this is Anyuan's address, follow this address to find it... I want to go back to the company... ..."

Fade Chen was driven down holding the note. He watched the car drive out of sight with a dazed expression. He stood there and took a big mouthful of car exhaust, and his face was distorted with anger.

Lu Mengxin drove the car to Shenghui, it was still early.

He ran back to the office in a hurry, took the recording pen and the micro camera and didn't dare to delay any longer, rushed out the door non-stop, ready to walk to the underground parking lot.

He waited at the elevator entrance for a while, only to hear a "ding—" and the elevator door opened slowly. He didn't have time to take a closer look, and rushed in.

As soon as I entered the door, I realized that something was wrong. There were two Bodhisattvas standing inside.

Gao Jinyang looked at him with a cold face, and Chen Mingjie seemed to have not recovered from his recklessness, with a surprised expression on his face, he silently observed Gao Jinyang's expression again.

Lu Mengxin has already stepped into the door with both feet, so naturally there is no reason to back out.At this time, the door was slowly closed, and he dared to say hello to the two of them, "Mr. Gao, Mr. Chen."

Chen Mingjie is a smart person, and he guessed Gao Jinyang's thoughts at a glance, and then raised a smile and asked him: "Xiao Lu... What are you doing at the company early in the morning? I asked you to follow An Yuan to run the news, what's the situation?" How is it?"

Lu Mengxin replied honestly: "An Yuan is sick, so I can't film today, I have to go to his house to see later."

Chen Mingjie screamed in his heart that something was wrong, and just as he was about to speak to stop him, Gao Jinyang said abruptly: "Why didn't you come that day?"

Lu Mengxin's face froze, and seeing Chen Mingjie's smile deepened, he was flustered, scratched the back of his head and hesitated: "I, I'm busy..."

During the conversation, the elevator arrived at the underground parking lot. Gao Jinyang looked at him coldly, and as always did not expose his lies. He lifted his long legs and stepped out of the elevator room.

Naturally, Chen Mingjie couldn't care less about watching a good show, so he followed Gao Jinyang out of the house in a hurry.

Seeing people walking away, Lu Mengxin felt a lot more relaxed, heaved a sigh of relief, did not dare to go out, and stayed in the elevator for a while.

Gao Jinyang got into the car, and Chen Mingjie opened the passenger's door and sat in very sensibly.

Lao Li drove the car out of the parking lot, and the light inside the car gradually became brighter.

Chen Mingjie sat on the co-pilot's seat, feeling uneasy, thinking about how to speak to Gao Jinyang about work, when he heard the person behind him speak, but what he said was not about work.

"The kid's work with the crew every day is arranged by you?" When Gao Jinyang said this, his tone was the same as before.

Chen Mingjie was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that the kid he was talking about was Lu Mengxin.He immediately responded, "Yeah, I think Xiao Lu likes to run... He used to be a paparazzi, and he's quite famous in the circle..." He couldn't stop the car as soon as he opened his mouth, and he said a few more words He said, "I've met this guy An Yuan, he's a nice guy, he has no scandals or dates, he's clean...Xiao Lu follows him around, so he won't be dealt with maliciously in the first place, and in the second place...An Yuan Both new dramas are in the process of preparation, and I'm doing this to keep the fat from leaking to outsiders..."

Gao Jinyang sat in the back seat and listened to his explanation without saying a word, neither saying yes nor bad.

Chen Mingjie talked fast for a while, not sure whether Gao Jinyang wanted to inquire about him, or he felt bored, so he asked a few more questions deliberately as if it was funny.

After that, Gao Jinyang didn't speak any more along the way, and Chen Mingjie didn't dare to talk too much.

When the car arrived at Phoenix Mountain, Gao Jinyang got out of the car and walked in the door familiarly, while Chen Mingjie followed him all the way up the stairs.

Gao Jinyang called him over today to discuss the work that Chen Mingjie will be responsible for next year.

Chen Mingjie expressed his difficulties. Now everyone in the entertainment circle is full of people with background and wealth. Among other things, the actress Mu Xinwei who has just become popular recently is backed by Mr. Zhao from Junlan Film and Television. The shot helped her win the role of the leading actress in the new drama.

Chen Mingjie wiped the sweat stains on his forehead, wondering why: "Mr. Gao, the situation is like this, you see...it's not that we don't want to report, it's just that some people can't be offended. I, Old Chen, have been in the circle for most of my life. It should be said...the atmosphere in the current entertainment industry is not as good as before."

Gao Jinyang couldn't bear to listen to his trivial matters, and he had a set of conclusions about how the entertainment media would develop next year.

"You don't need to discuss this matter with me. I paid you to come here to let you serve the company, not to listen to your complaints about difficulties." Gao Jinyang thought for a while and said, "Starting next week, you will work on the entertainment section on a regular basis. Report to me, if you have time, watch a few new dramas signed under the company's name, and find someone who is capable to come up with ideas, and if you want to fire, you have to fire me a hit."

Seeing that he was angry, Chen Mingjie hurriedly responded, not talking about anything else.

The work report is almost finished, and Gao Jinyang also feels a little tired.

Overnight work yesterday, the heads of several departments discussed the work goals for the new year.

After Chen Mingjie finished expressing his opinion, Gao Jinyang looked tired, "Mr. Gao, are you tired? Why don't you come here today?"

Gao Jinyang raised his head and lowered his head repeatedly, moved his cervical spine for a while, and felt that it was really difficult, "Okay, you can go back."

Chen Mingjie turned around and walked towards the door, but was stopped by someone halfway, "Wait a minute—"

Gao Jinyang squinted his eyes, as if hesitating, "That kid's job...you change it for him, what's the matter with An Yuan."
