Self-cultivation of third-rate stars

Zhan Shuduan didn't intend to tell Ye Mu what Guan Wei told him that day. He didn't know what Qi Shi's purpose was when he came back this time, but he didn't want Ye Mu to get worried, so he just asked the other party to make peace with him. It's better not to contact Qi Shi.

The attitude between the words was short of telling Ye Mu to block Qi Shi's number directly. Although he did have this idea, if he really said it, wouldn't it appear that he was narrow-minded?

He is very dignified as the CEO of Nachuan Entertainment, could he be this kind of person?

--Will do.

Fortunately, although Ye Mu didn't understand why, he still agreed without hesitation. Although he didn't ask much, he still couldn't help but secretly wondered if the other party was jealous.

"This is the information you asked me to look up." The secretary put a document on the president's desk, moved his hand away from the computer to look at it, the secretary turned and left with great interest, and closed the door silently.

In order to confirm what Guan Wei said, he asked his secretary to investigate Qi Shi, and even asked his brother to borrow someone to come over.

Putting down the work in his hands and flipping through the documents, what was written on it was still a name. He skipped the useless things like name, height and weight, and went directly to the key points, and found that the major at Qishi University had nothing to do with acting or drama.

He read it intently for about half an hour, frowning more and more as he flipped through the pages, until finally he almost took a deep breath to force himself to calm down, and then resisted the desire to tear up this document directly impulse.

When the secretary was called in again, she couldn't help being surprised, after all, it was the first time she saw Zhan Shuduan's face so gloomy.

I don't know how infuriating things were written in that document, which made the president black face regardless of his image.

Ye Mu, who is far away on the other side, naturally doesn't know about Zhan Shuduan's anger because of the information here. At this time, he is shooting a MV on the set, of course, in the form of a cameo.

The inviter is a singer who has participated in variety shows together before, Zhou Yunjing.

Singers who concentrate on making music these days have a hard life. A good song is like a good movie. It is lucky to be able to create one song in a lifetime. If ordinary singers don’t dabble in other things, they will not be far away from starving .

The golden age of records has long passed, and in the era of the information explosion, there are basically no one who spends money on albums except fans.

Zhou Yunjing happened to be one of the people who concentrated on making music at the beginning. His first album was rated as a ghost. Afterwards, the sales of two consecutive albums were very good. He thought that he was one of the few who was favored by God. One of the lucky ones, but he didn't expect that one day he would face the embarrassment of exhaustion.

Under the pressure of life, he finally compromised with the reality and followed the old path of many predecessors - transformation.

However, he doesn't know how to film and doesn't have much interest in filming, so the first direction of transformation has become variety shows.Variety shows are still very popular these days. Once the show becomes popular, it is not without precedent that it will become popular overnight on the Internet.

It's a pity that Zhou Yunjing was not lucky, and Ye Mu happened to know each other at this time, and they were on the same show.

Zhou Yunjing, who had just transformed at the beginning, actually still had the pride of a musician in his bones. He had no interest in variety shows that sold jokes, but his audience was high. The popular people were the center of the stage and the topic was hot. The cold people I couldn't touch the microphone a few times during the whole process.

After that episode, he and Ye Mu, who were two young [-]th-line artists on the stage, had no accidents as a cold bench. The two stood by and stared blankly, only being called out once or twice during games or question-and-answer sessions. .

Ye Mu's mind is calm, and he doesn't feel like being left behind, but Zhou Yunjing can't stand it, especially the experience of being called around during the game, which really made him feel humiliated.

So he didn't understand Ye Mu's calm attitude, and even asked after stepping down why he didn't mind the 'discriminatory' attitude of the entertainment industry.

At that time, Ye Mu was sweating hotly, so he said without thinking: "This is work, just do your job well, if you have to say something, I'm not good at being as eloquent as a host, It’s good to have few lines.” After speaking, he handed the unboiled water to Zhou Yunjing, and said with a light smile, “Drink?”

This passage was like enlightenment, and Zhou Yunjing was completely awakened. He realized that he came to do variety shows to earn a living, and earning a living inevitably depends on people's faces. What's more, he still has a musical dream in his heart that he still refuses to give up.

It was also fortunate that Zhou Yunjing was the one who complained about Ye Mu at that time, if it was someone else, and such a complaint was exposed, he would be like walking on the tip of a knife in the circle.

This truth was only gradually realized after learning about it later, so now, Zhou Yunjing is also very grateful to Ye Mu for keeping his mouth shut.

The variety show effect has brought him a lot of popularity, but Zhou Yunjing still has a longing and hope for music, so when his popularity is rising, he finally decided to release an album again, and he is responsible for the lyrics and music production of the entire album.

The MV for the title song needed to be filmed, so he found Ye Mu without hesitation.

Ye Mu almost forgot that he and Zhou Yunjing still had friendship, and after receiving the invitation from the other party, he looked through the diary in the drawer, only to remember that he had indeed been on a show with the other party when he first entered the entertainment circle.

I never imagined that one day I would be invited by someone I have known for so long. Today, Zhou Yunjing can be regarded as having a three-acre land in the variety show circle, and he has a large fan base. It was reported a few years ago The matter of finally releasing another album was once so noisy that it became a trending search.

After all, he was also rated as a ghost back then, and he won several related music awards.

Ye Mu, who was invited, was flattered and accepted after some judgment.

At first I thought it was just an ordinary cameo appearance, but when I received the script, I realized that he was actually one of the male leads in the MV.

The theme of this song is chasing dreams, and the main line of the MV plot is quite old-fashioned, that is, Zhou Yunjing plays a boy who pursues music dreams, and Ye Mu plays his best friend who has supported him since high school.

MV shooting is actually more difficult than TV dramas, because there is no dialogue throughout the whole process, and the progress is short. The rhythm of the plot must be accurately grasped, and it also tests the ability of the actors. What a story.

This made it difficult for Ye Mu, whose acting skills were poor, after all, it was Zhou Yunjing's important album, if it was ruined by his poor acting skills, the other party didn't mind, and he couldn't bear it either.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yunjing was not worried about this at all, and thanked Ye Mu with a smile after accepting the invitation, and acted like he trusted Ye Mu very much.

So Ye Mu became even more worried.

There is no way, since I have accepted it, I can’t go back on my word, what I should think about is how to work hard to make a good shot.So Ye Mu stayed up with the script for three nights to study how to act.

Because the progress was not long, the shooting cycle was also short. Perhaps the dark circles under the eye sockets did not appear in vain. Under the guidance of the director, the shooting effect was actually not bad.

Ye Mu was wearing a thick padded jacket and sitting on a chair to touch up her makeup, thinking about how to perform the next last scene in order to best interpret it.

It so happened that Zhou Yunjing came over at this time, "You have worked hard these few days, thank you for accepting my invitation."

Ye Mu couldn't move, he could only glance at Zhou Yunjing, and replied politely: "Nothing, I should thank you for inviting me to shoot your comeback album."

Zhou Yunjing smiled, "It's the last scene, I'll treat you to dinner after filming."

Ye Mu thought for a while, but still didn't refuse.

The last scene is the end of the MV. In the MV, Zhou Yunjing finally realized his music dream and successfully opened his first national tour.As for the last concert, he came to the city where he went to high school with Ye Mu in the MV.

Ye Mu received the ticket sent by his best friend for many years, but he didn't expect to encounter a traffic jam on the way. He didn't come in a hurry until the end. At this time, Zhou Yunjing had finished singing the last song, and he was standing on the stage with an audience of [-] people. Above, I told the story along the way, as well as the only friend who supported him when everyone denied him and thought he was impossible.

Zhou Yunjing's eyes seemed to be shining with vast sea of ​​stars, and when he raised his head, he met Ye Mu who hurried over from the audience.

The two looked at each other and smiled in an instant, as if they were back in high school, one was standing on the fountain with a Coke bottle, and the other was sitting cross-legged on the grass not far away, accompanied by an old mobile phone with extremely poor sound quality, A smile brighter than a sunny day.

The moment the filming ended, there were murmurs of discussion on the set.

For some reason, a strange atmosphere began to permeate the set, but Ye Mu didn't notice something was wrong. He was blown by the wind and sneezed several times, took a sip of the hot water sent by Shi Zhao, and breathed comfortably. Take a breath.

"Did I shoot that part badly just now?" Ye Mu couldn't help asking.

Shi Zhao shook his head, "I think it's pretty good, it's just..."

Ye Mu's heart tightened, "That's it?"

I saw Shi Zhao blinking his eyes, and he didn't need to speak at all, he could hear someone next to him discussing the matter just now in twos and threes, unfortunately the discussion was not about acting skills, but——

"Oh my god, this is so gay, I can't help but want to stand on CP!"

"The two male protagonists definitely have an affair, how can the relationship between the boys' best friends be so ambiguous!"

"It's not a problem to kneel down and propose marriage in the stage of laughing at each other! Thinking about it, it's too romantic!"

Ye Mu: "..."

Although it is rare that he was not criticized for his poor acting skills, the discussion about the plot has been going on for a long time, and it is not a serious discussion.By the time they finished work and left, the group of people had already rushed all the way from the original MV plot to Tongren Avenue, and they didn't know where YY had gone. Before leaving, Ye Mu even heard some words about sadomasochism and forced separation.

It can be seen how big the brains of this group of people are.

He touched his nose feeling helpless, Zhou Yunjing walked up and talked about the matter of treating him to dinner just before the filming.

Ye Mu glanced at the phone, there was still some distance before the evening, and it was just right for a meal, so he accepted the invitation.

Although Ye Mu likes spicy food, Zhou Yunjing must protect his throat as a singer, so his diet is light. When the two came to a western restaurant, Ye Mu refused the red wine and ordered a glass of juice instead.

"Thank you for your help this time." Zhou Yunjing spoke first.

Ye Mu shook his head, and after saying no thanks, he couldn't help asking, "Why did you invite me to be a guest star in your MV?" It's no wonder he was at a loss, after all, apart from the one-time relationship between the two in the variety show back then, I haven't had too much contact with him, and it is a recognized fact that his acting skills are not good. It is really not a wise move to invite him to shoot such a difficult MV.

Zhou Yunjing took a deep look at Ye Mu and said, "I've always wanted to say thank you for what happened back then. If you hadn't woken me up, I might not have released another album so smoothly." Ye Mo was even more grateful. Mu is tight-lipped about his ignorance back then.

Ye Mu turned his head and thought for a while, but he didn't remember what he did to make the other party thank him so much, so he didn't ask any more, and acquiesced to this matter, bowed his head and ate the steak silently.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the meal, they bumped into Qi Shi who also came to eat, and the two of them stared at each other with surprise on their faces.
