double promise

Because Zhang Heshan lost his mind at a critical moment, Xie Guan failed to escape after the meeting, and instead was pulled away from the dinner by Director Bai.

And the location of the dinner was actually a familiar old place: Lanyue Club.

Xie Guan walked in with a bitter face, thinking: "All the restaurants in City B have closed down, is this the only one left?"

This meal was not as embarrassing as the afternoon meeting. After the executives were seated, Yao Jing called and called all the actors who had already been booked.The first female has not been found yet, and not long after, the male first Qinglan and the second female Jiang Yingying arrived one after another.A few actresses from Xinghui came later, and they had nothing to do with filming. It was probably Yao Jing who called them to accompany the wine to make a familiar face.

Surrounded by Yingying and Yanyan, the room suddenly became noisy.Xie Guan was stunned by the demons and goblins, just when he heard Director Bai sneered, and sneered in a low voice: "Oh, this bustle is almost as busy as Pansi Cave."

The corner of Xie Guan's mouth twitched, and he reminded him softly: "You are sitting here yourself."

Bailuzhou squinted at him: "Wukong, you're a little self-conscious."

The two looked at each other with a smile, picked up their wine glasses and clinked each other, and drank it all in one gulp.

Bai Luzhou was bored, his eyes wandered around the banquet, and he lowered his voice to complain to Xie Guan: "Why is Zhang so honest today?"

Xie Guan was casually playing with the cup, and when he heard this, he glanced at Zhang Heshan.Mr. Zhang was drinking with a little beauty in his arms. When he saw him looking up, he immediately let go of his hand like a conditioned reflex. His whole body went into a state of alert in an instant as if he had been electrified.

Xie Guan hurriedly bowed his head and said awkwardly: "He may be...cough, I dare not."

Bai Luzhou: "Huh?"

Xie Guandao: "Actually, the matter that Mr. Yao told you today is such a situation..."

He withdrew Yin Lisha's name, and explained the situation to Bai Luzhou. Director Bai was angry and funny when he heard it, but he didn't dare to speak out, for fear of being heard by others, he almost choked with laughter.

Xie Guan was very helpless: "Still laughing... Isn't this a sad story?"

Bai Luzhou: "I said why those little girls stared at you as soon as they entered the door. It turned out that they saw a new generation of women's friends hahahahaha..."

Xie Guan sighed: "You old man, please be kind..."

Before Bai Luzhou heard Yao Jing's words, even though he stood by Xie Guan's side without hesitation at that time, it was inevitable that he would have doubts in his heart.At this time, after hearing Xie Guan's explanation and looking at Mr. Zhang's reaction, he knew that he was not lying.Although Director Bai has a manly temperament, he still has a female perspective in his heart, so he appreciates and appreciates him even more, and drinks with him again.

Ladies at the banquet drank Margaux Red Pavilion, while men all drank Wuliangye made in China for ten years.Xie Guan originally had an average drinking capacity, but his condition has not been good recently, after two drinks, he became a little over the top.Director Bai couldn't believe it when he saw him rubbing his temples: "It's only a few cups, I haven't tasted it yet, are you dizzy?"

Xie Guan has convinced her.Director Bai chatted murderously with Yao and Zhang for the whole afternoon, and he never lost the wind during the whole process. Now he is still in high spirits, talking and laughing happily, not showing any fatigue, and he doesn't know what she ate to grow up.

"In your current state, if you go out with me to film a movie, you will have to get down in less than three days," Bailuzhou said flatly, "Is your movie about to wrap up? Take advantage of this time to exercise well, otherwise you won't be able to bear it when you get into the group." .”

Xie Guanjiu woke up for three minutes in an instant: "Okay, I will pay attention later." He paused for half a second, and asked again: "Director Bai, I have always wanted to ask you, I am only a male supporting role in TV dramas, and this role is not good. Important, why do you..."

"Why do you have to be asked to act?" Bai Luzhou took over the conversation, but didn't answer him immediately.She took a sip of the red wine and said after deliberation: "This is just my idea, and I have to discuss it with the screenwriter again. I can give you a thorough explanation first, but there is no guarantee that it will be changed like this."

Xie Guansu Rong said: "You say."

Bailuzhou: "I want to turn Yue Qinglu into a villainous boss."

"Cough, cough, cough...!" Xie Guan choked on the wine all of a sudden. "Yue Qinglu" is the demon guardian he played before.But that's just cannon fodder. If it is really changed like this, it will probably be sprayed into a watering can by the original book party and the TV drama party.

Bai Luzhou was eager to do something, but he didn't expect this kind of reaction from him, so he was disappointed: "You are so young, why are you so conservative and boring."

Xie Guan finally stopped coughing, cleared his throat, and apologized in a good voice: "I didn't mean to spoil your interest, it's just that this change will be too... so what, it's surprising?"

"The vitality of art lies in continuous innovation," Bai Luzhou said. "This is how IP speculation is now. It sticks to a plot mode. After filming a TV series and making a movie, it will be remade after ten years. If two popular artists dare to call it "" You see, even a newcomer like you believes in this model. But in fact, this way of making quick money is extremely harmful to art that needs to be created with great concentration. If the novel is written in any way, the director will How to shoot, then what do screenwriters do?"

"To put it another way, since there are TV dramas, if there is another movie with the same plot, are you still interested in watching it as an ordinary viewer? It's not good to buy something with those tens of dollars, why do you have to watch the same thing over and over again? Three times, right?"

Xie Guan nodded humbly, but Bai Dao didn't continue talking, raised his glass and took a sip of wine silently, with a look of loneliness flashing across his eyes.

Xie Guan sighed, picked up the glass and touched her crisply, draining the white wine at the bottom of the glass.

They sat in a glamorous luxury, and they saw the most prosperous side of the entertainment industry.The capital is having a carnival, drinking wine, singing and dancing, and the real creator is hiding in a dark corner, full of worries, but no one can say anything, no one is willing to listen, and can only talk to a small artist who doesn't know if he can make it.

Changing the script is only a difficult first step.Bai Luzhou wanted to choose an actor by himself, and even if he had to fight with the management all afternoon, he would be constrained by all parties in the future, and when this work actually came out, he didn't know what it would be like.

"Hey, you can't think too deeply about this matter. It's easy to be pessimistic if you think too much." Bailuzhou quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile, "The road is made by people, and there are always more ways than difficulties. The burden of art inheritance is temporarily If it doesn’t fall on you yet, don’t be afraid.”

Xie Guan also smiled, and poured a glass of wine for her. Bai Luzhou had a Chinese root in his mouth, and was about to light the fire. Suddenly, a man sat beside Xie Guan, holding a wine glass and greeted him familiarly: "Mr. Xie, Director Bai, talk to me." What are you so happy about?"

Bailuzhou didn't recognize who this person was for a while, Xie Guan saw that this was embarrassing, and hurriedly reminded Director Bai deliberately by saying hello: "Qinglan, long time no see."

Qinglan ignored Xie Guan's greetings, first greeted Director Bai, offered a round of wine, and showed enough respect, then turned to Xie Guan and said hypocritically: "Mr. Xie, hello."

Because Qinglan has a close relationship with Yang Rong, the president of Xinghui, she currently sits firmly in the position of Xinghui's first brother.This time, it's the male protagonist who forced his way in through investment.Xie Guan had almost no interaction with him, it was because the gap between the two was too big at that time, and Qing Lan was usually defiant, so Xie Guan never expected that he would take the initiative to come to him, and he was not sure for a while How should we treat him.

He said "Mr. Xie" one by one, listening to the yin and yang, Xie Guan didn't want to cause trouble, and said with a smile: "Brother Qinglan, you are being polite, and you are my senior, so I would never dare to call you "Mr. Xie". "

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, Mr. Xie is too modest," Qinglan said with a fake smile, "What happened this afternoon has spread throughout the company, and I heard that even Mr. Yao has to give you three points, Congratulations to Mr. Xie for reaching the sky in one step."

He passed the cup forward in his hand, as if he wanted to clink glasses with Xie Guan: "I would like to thank the teacher for a glass, we are considered colleagues, and we will be filming director Bai's scenes together in the future, will Teacher Xie give me this face?"

Xie Guan glanced in the direction of Director Bai calmly.Qinglan obviously came to provoke trouble, but now Bailuzhou is here, and the two will be actors in the same crew in the future. Of course, he can simply reject Qinglan, but he has to think for Director Bai.

China's wine table culture is like this. It is etiquette to go forward to toast. No matter whether you like it or not, you must drink it. If you don't drink it, you will lose face.This afternoon, the conflict between Xie Guan and the management was enough to give Bailuzhou a headache. Now, if there is another disagreement with the cast and crew, then the film should not be filmed at all.

He can no longer trouble Director Bai.

Xie Guan gave himself a full compliment, and politely touched Qinglan: "Brother Qinglan is a popular artist, unlike me, even though he signed a big company, he still has no masterpiece." He threatened without revealing: "There are a lot of people who are popular, and the entertainment circle is deep. If something happens in the future, I have to ask Brother Qinglan to raise it."

Qinglan felt annoyed after he hit him with a "needle hidden in the cotton", but Xie Guan's reputation is there, he even dared to hit investors, so it's no problem to attack artists.Qinglan obeyed Yao Jing's instructions and came to find fault, but in the end she still felt sorry for her life, so she had to drink the wine in her glass, and left angrily after a few words of cynicism.

Yao Jing has been stealthily observing the situation here, and seeing that Qinglan is unfavorable, she secretly scolds the trash.After a while, she thought of another way, and beckoned to find a female artist from Xinghui, and asked them to take turns to toast Xie Guan.

Since Qinglan can't do it alone, let's fight with wheels.

Yao Jing had a strong desire for revenge, Xie Guan didn't want to cause trouble, even though he had a splitting headache from drinking, he finally gritted his teeth and endured it.By the time the drinking session was over, he had already gone to the bathroom to vomit twice.

Everyone at the scene was drunk, and those with assistants called someone to pick them up, and those who came by car had the club find a driver to send them back.Xie Guan didn't drive, and didn't bring an assistant with him. He barely kept upright and walked out of the club. He was so dizzy that he couldn't tell the difference between east, west, and north. He wanted to go to the side of the road to hail a taxi, but for some reason, he turned into the open-air parking lot on the west side of the club.

Counting nine cold days, the cold and alcohol are numbing.Xie Guan circled around like a headless fly for a few times, finally gave up on looking for an exit, staggered to find a corner sheltered from the wind with his hands on his forehead, and sat down motionless.

After an unknown amount of time, the lights of a Porsche in the parking lot flickered twice, a man wrapped in a coat hurried towards the car, and accidentally tripped over Xie Guan who was sitting at the base of the wall.

"Damn it!" The man was startled, and he stood still cursing. He was about to ask if that bastard who wanted to die was squatting here in the way, when he turned his head, he happened to see a pale and familiar face under the dim light of the street lamp. s face.

Huo Zhikuan's voice suddenly changed from the crack in his throat: "Fuck?!"

Trembling, he took out his mobile phone and quickly found a number: "Brother! Are you ashamed?"
