No less publicity [entertainment circle]

"Okay, you boy, I'll just say what are we doing in such a big box for dinner? It's what happened after a long time," it sounded like blame, but Tang Shang said it with a smile.Anyone with a discerning eye could see how happy Tang Shang was.

The box that Zhang Jin decided is the largest box in the entire hotel, about 30 square meters, with two round tables that can accommodate more than 20 people. It is decorated in a traditional Chinese restaurant, and there is a pair of wooden chairs on the side as a rest area. It is very high-end. You can see the high-rise downtown.

When Tang Shang took his seat, he wondered if Zhang Jinan had money and no place to spend it, and there were only six of them, booking such a big box.

It's been like this for a long time,

"Consider this as my birthday present to Director Tang," Zhang Jinan took a sip of lemonade.

Before Tang Shang could say anything, Jiang Mengxin made a pause gesture.

"Hey wait, brother, how can this be considered a birthday gift? You didn't buy us," Jiang Mengxin put his hands on Tang Shang's shoulders, "On Director Tang's birthday, you can't miss a single gift, and you can't be small. Director Tang, do you think so?"

Jiang Mengxin looked younger than everyone present here. He was wearing a sweater and a plaid skirt. He was very trendy, and in Tang Shang's eyes, he was very energetic.

Zhang Jinan snorted: "Crazy girl."

Jiang Mengxin hid behind Tang Shang, smiled and said, "Director Tang, brother wants to beat me up."

Hearing the name "Crazy Girl", Tang Shang suddenly felt a sore nose. Looking at the lively scene again, it seemed that he had returned to the time when "Plum Blossom Bone" was filmed.

"Plum Blossom Bone" is a costume drama, and the post-production technology at that time was not as good as it is now, so it was shot in real scenes, mainly in the suburbs.Sometimes it's too late to go to the hotel all night, so we all live in tents and sleep together. I don't want to say much about the twists and turns, anyway, it's all over.On the day when Zhang Jinan finished filming, that is, the day when the whole show ended, all the crew members arrived and went to barbecue together, and Haifeng stored their five months of experience.

This Jiang Mengxin was the youngest in the crew. She was still in her sophomore year of high school when the filming took place. She was not very smart. Everyone raised her as a younger sister, but Tang Shang treated her like a daughter.Jiang Mengxin's favorite thing to cling to is Zhang Jinan, she bickers with Zhang Jinan every day, and Zhang Jinan is responsive to her requests, making trouble with her, but everyone doesn't persuade them, they just watch them having fun.Every time at the end, Zhang Jinan would call her a crazy girl.

"Three years have passed, and the crazy girl has grown up," Tang Shang sniffed, and patted the back of Jiang Mengxin's hand in relief, "How is college recently?"

"It's just studying and stealing tricks. When I graduate, I will come to Director Tang," Jiang Mengxin said with a smile, and the two balls on his head shook, "Welcome me!"

"Okay, I welcome you anytime, but you still have to look at your acting skills."

Jiang Mengxin sat down on the chair next to Tang Shang, looked up to the sky and said: "Ah - I still have to audition -"

Seeing her like this, everyone laughed. After laughing for a while, Tang Shang waved his hand: "Okay, okay, my place looks like it's so busy, sit down soon."

Everyone naturally obeyed and took their seats.

They were all people they hadn't seen for a long time, so they naturally had a lot to talk about, and the box was never quiet for a moment.

Su Zhiyang sat down next to Zhang Jinan, and greeted Li Qiang by the way: "Hi, Brother Qiang."

Li Qiang asked: "It's July now, you wear long sleeves? Are you not hot?"

Zhang Jinan picked up the glass and glanced at him while drinking water. He looked really hot—a long-sleeved red and yellow striped shirt with high-waisted pants.

Zhang Jinan knew Su Zhiyang well. He pursued fashion in his clothes, and he would wear whatever was trendy, no matter the temperature outside was 29 degrees.

Sure enough, Su Zhiyang said: "It's not hot, this is Hong Kong style, which is popular recently. The most important thing about this style is to tuck the clothes into the trousers, and even if they can't fall off, you need to add a belt."

Zhang Jinan put down the water glass and asked, "Did you drive here by yourself? Where's Sister Peng?"

Sister Peng is Su Zhiyang's manager. Sister Peng is different from Li Qiang, probably because she has two children, her temper has been smoothed out, and she has never lost her temper. She can't be gentle.Zhang Jinan thought Su Zhiyang was her son several times.

Su Zhiyang: "Oh, Sister Peng said she has something to do, just call her when I'm almost done eating, she will pick me up."

Li Qiang said bluntly, "Why make her so troublesome? Why don't you come with us?"

"That's right, it's only two streets away," Zhang Jinan said.

When Su Zhiyang heard this, he was overjoyed: "Damn, I didn't want to bother you at first. Since you are so enthusiastic, I'd rather be obedient than respectful."

Zhang Jinan narrowed his eyes, turned his head and said to Li Qiang, "Actually, when you think about it, the two streets are quite troublesome."

Su Zhiyang: "?"

Li Qiang nodded and turned his wrist: "Yes, I'm tired from driving all day, and I want to go home early and rest."

Su Zhiyang pulled Zhang Jin's head over: "Don't don't, brother, I was wrong, I'm not going anywhere."

At this time, the waiter came in and put a few side dishes on glass plates.

"The food is here, everyone can eat it," Tang Shang said happily.

"Of course I want to eat, today is our actor's treat—" Jiang Mengxin held up a glass filled with boiled water and held it up to Zhang Jinan, "Thank you, brother, I'll do it first as a respect—" As he spoke, he gave the water to I'm bored.

Su Zhiyang stood up immediately: "Come on, come on, let's do it together. Today's meal can be said to be a reunion for the crew of "Plum Blossom Bone." He said and raised his glass, "Except for those who drive, you are not allowed to drink. Take a few sips!"

"Cheers!" Everyone stood up in unison, touched each other in the air, took a few sips and then sat down.

Zhang Jinan was about to sit down when he was stopped again.

At first glance, it was the senior who played his eldest sister in the play calling him: "Oh, don't you drink too much? This is not like you."

Just as Zhang Jinan wanted to go back, Su Zhiyang next to him said first: "Yes, you invited everyone to come today. You are the boss and the film king. Are you so ridiculous?"

Everyone looked at Zhang Jin'an, booed with Su Zhiyang together, and began to persuade him to drink.

Zhang Jinan kept smiling, but he was already thinking in his heart whether he should put this guy on the road and let him walk back alone.

Su Zhiyang had no idea that his fate was about to be rewritten, and he was still eager to drag Zhang Jinan into the water: "Is it at least one drink? Have a drink, drink a drink, drink a drink."

"Forget it, I'm happy today," Zhang Jin'an grabbed the cup and drank it down, "Let's go down."

"I think one cup is still a bit small," Su Zhiyang said.

Zhang Jinan smiled slightly, leaned close to Su Zhiyang's ear and said, "I think you want to taste the feeling of walking home."

Su Zhiyang's smile gradually froze: "...I was wrong, I'll help you drink, I'll help you drink."

Only then did Zhang Jinan pick up the vegetables and eat with satisfaction.

The others didn't know what Zhang Jinan said, and they kept urging Su Zhiyang to make a fuss again, asking Zhang Jinan to drink a few sips.

Su Zhiyang shook his head again and again, frantically peeking at Zhang Jinan, only he knew how much cold sweat he was shedding: "Forget it, forget it, it's not good to drink too much, he has something to do tomorrow, we have to eat vegetables."

After all, everyone is a sensible person, so they didn't continue to persuade them, and they all ate their dishes happily.

"Am I doing well?" Su Zhiyang whispered.

"It's okay," Zhang Jinyan ate a piece of beef.

Everyone chatted and ate like this. After eating for about half an hour, a few busy people left first, and many people stopped their chopsticks and couldn't move much.

Then it was time for chatting again, Li Qiang went out to smoke a cigarette, and as soon as he left, Jiang Mengxin took a seat.

Jiang Mengxin smiled and said, "Brother, you are very popular now. My roommates all know you, and one of them is still your fan."

Su Zhiyang interrupted: "Damn, what's so strange? When will this brother not be popular?"

Zhang Jinan glanced at Su Zhiyang: "Stop talking nonsense and eat more, play less games and read more."

Jiang Mengxin was happy, and then asked: "Brother, I heard from your interview that the next play will be with Sister Gu?"

Zhang Jinyan shook his cup, and answered very officially: "The show is finished, it's just going to be broadcast soon, and it's expected to be broadcast in the second half of the year."

Su Zhiyang became curious: "I said, are you really not with Gu Yirou?"

"She and I have a pure window relationship," Zhang Jin'an clicked his tongue, "Aside from other things, Mr. Gu is really the strongest teammate. If there is a chance, the four of us will play double button."

Jiang Mengxin: "?"

Zhang Jinan: "Xiaxiaole is also fine."

Su Zhiyang waved his hand and refused: "No, no."

Jiang Mengxin laughed a few times and then sighed: "Oh... I'm not old enough, otherwise I will definitely audition for the second female role in "Darkness"."

Zhang Jinan raised his eyebrows: "Do you know that "Darkness" is looking for someone?"

Jiang Mengxin nodded: "Yes, Director Tang asked me. I thought the subject matter was interesting, so I bought a physical book, and then I wanted to act. Oh, what a pity."

"Director Tang also asked me, I have a time conflict and I can't go," Su Zhiyang asked again, "Have the actors been decided yet?"

"Except for the male second, everything is settled." Zhang Jinan said.

"The second male, Cui Chi!" Jiang Mengxin became serious again when he heard the exciting male guest, "Cui Chi is hard to choose, he has to be handsome, he has to have acting skills, and the most important actor has to be able to accept the low salary. But Generally, those who can meet the requirements of Cui Chi are idols... but idols' acting skills..."

The three of them were silent together. When Li Qiang came in, seeing the three of them bowed their heads and said nothing, he wondered, "Are you three here in a daze?"

"Brother Qiang, you are back," Jiang Mengxin stood up and was about to give up his seat.

"It's okay, sit down, I'll go to the mall downstairs to buy something, you guys continue talking," Li Qiang picked up his wallet and left.

"Forget it, I'll look at it when the time comes, let's not talk about this, let's talk about it," Zhang Jinan said.

Su Zhiyang moved closer and pricked up his ears: "Whose melons are we talking about?"

Jiang Mengxin snapped his fingers: "Is it because of that celebrity A going to the nightclub privately?"

Su Zhiyang: "I also read the news, it's too strong, even dare to go to nightclubs if you have a partner."

Jiang Mengxin snorted: "What a scumbag."

The two looked at Zhang Jinan with expectant eyes, hoping that he would tell an inside story, but Zhang Jinan took out his mobile phone: "Are you playing Xiaoxiaole?"

Su Zhiyang: "?"

Jiang Mengxin: "?"

By the time we finished eating, it was almost eight o'clock.

Everyone went back to their respective homes, piggybacking on the same road and walking together.

Jiang Mengxin had to go to school later, she was a girl after all, Zhang Jinan picked her up without her manager accompanying her, Su Zhiyang and Jiang Mengxin sat in the back row, there were more than enough four people in the car.

Su Zhiyang patted the chair: "Although why don't you change your car, this car has been around for several years?"

"No money," Zhang Jinan said.

"You have no money? Are you kidding me?" Su Zhiyang said.

Zhang Jinan turned his head and said to the back: "I really have no money, the balance is only 3 yuan, if you can't, you can ask Brother Qiang."

Li Qiang nodded: "I will testify."

Jiang Mengxin was surprised: "No way? You are the actor, how much is the salary for a movie? Where is the money? Why did you go?"

Zhang Jinan closed his eyes and meditated: "I bought a car I drove, I bought a house, and I have no money."

"Wait," Su Zhiyang was puzzled again, "It's fine to buy a car, why do you buy a house? Your two-story building is not enough for you to live in?"

Jiang Mengxin smirked: "Isn't it because I want to have a sister-in-law? Isn't that right, brother."

Su Zhiyang understood immediately, and patted the back of the co-pilot: "It's ok, Zhang Jinan, underground romance?"

"What a fart," Zhang Jin'an was laughed at by these two people, "I bought it so that I can collect rent and make money when I retire."

"Retirement?" These words surprised Su Zhiyang even more than announcing their relationship, "You, you have been thinking about this for too long, right?"

"Who knows about the entertainment industry, it changes rapidly," Zhang Jin'an said with a faint smile, "Maybe it's someone else's news today, but it will be on your head tomorrow, and you will quit the circle the day after tomorrow."

"Oh...that's true," Su Zhiyang scratched his head.

"Why?" Jiang Mengxin was puzzled, "As long as you don't do the things that are said, it will be fine?"

Zhang Jinan raised one eyelid, looked at the rearview mirror, and then closed it again.

Su Zhiyang explained to Jiang Mengxin: "Girl, the reason why you think so now is because your current social circle is only people from our film crew, and you haven't met anyone else. When you come out of college in the future, you can take movies or TV shows. Either way, you have to go through diplomacy, in addition to wanting diplomacy yourself, it is more of a last resort to communicate. And not everyone in the entertainment industry has a correct attitude like us, and will teach you the truth, the water in the entertainment industry is very deep."

"Then just ignore those people?" Jiang Mengxin was still puzzled.

Then Zhang Jinan said slowly: "If that person is the director of your next play? Is it the actor of the opposite play? If you don't get in touch with them, they won't talk about you, but if they are seen by outsiders, they will say you didn't Big or small, netizens will scold you to death."

"Yes." Su Zhiyang nodded in agreement.

Jiang Mengxin frowned: "Then what should I do?"

"What can I do? You still have to talk to people when you meet them, just don't make friends easily," Su Zhiyang patted Jiang Mengxin on the shoulder, "I have seen several people who set up their own persona at the expense of others in order to be popular. Sigh... People setting is really troublesome, you have to get in touch with it to see it, but if you get in touch with it deeply, if you make friends carelessly, you will be out of the circle tomorrow."

Jiang Mengxin asked: "Brother Su, do you have someone to set it up?"

"My character design... Hey, Zhang Jinan, do you remember the time when I became popular?" Su Zhiyang patted Zhang Jinan's shoulder.

Zhang Jinan closed his eyes and smiled a little: "How could I forget, I almost died at that time."

"Sorry," Su Zhiyang rubbed his hands.

Jiang Mengxin was curious: "What's wrong?"

Su Zhiyang began to say: "That's a long, long story..."

Jiang Mengxin nodded: "Oh, forget it, I don't like to listen to long stories."

Su Zhiyang: "?"

"puff……"

Su Zhiyang didn't care about the two people who were secretly having fun in front of him, he didn't give up: "Don't tell me, sister, listen to what my brother told you..."

Jiang Mengxin turned her head away: "No need."

Su Zhiyang: "Listen, little sister...this is something that will not be revealed to the public..."

Zhang Jinan: "Su Zhiyang, you look like a pervert right now."

After driving for a while, I arrived at Jiang Mengxin's college. After watching Jiang Mengxin go in, the car continued to drive, making a circle, and then arrived at Su Zhiyang's community.

"Then I'll go first," Su Zhiyang waved to Zhang Jinan in the car, "Thank you."

"Goodbye." Zhang Jinan also waved his hand and closed the car window.

Zhang Jinan likes the night very much. He seems to have his own Bluetooth speaker at night. He can hear the sound of cars running over the road very clearly. He also likes the dim lights, because he can’t see people’s faces clearly. He can do what he wants .

For example, while listening to music while walking slowly on the street, I came across a barbecue stall and ordered several skewers to eat him up.

Zhang Jinan looked at the pedestrians walking on the road outside the window. He knew in his heart that every gain must be lost. If he wants to be famous, his freedom must be lost. The road he chose is his own, and he has nothing to regret.

However, how long has it been since the last time he took to the streets alone without any cover, maybe six or seven years?

"There is an event in the mall tomorrow, are you interested in going to see it?" Li Qiang's voice pulled Zhang Jinan back.

"Which shopping mall?" Zhang Jinan turned his head.

"Do you know Peter?" Li Qiang asked.

Zhang Jinan had the impression: "I know, my house is only ten minutes away. What activities do they have?"

"It seems to be an offline event organized by a perfume brand, and several artists and actors were invited," Li Qiang glanced at Zhang Jinan, "Going? If you want to go, I'll talk to the person in charge and reserve a seat for you gone."

Zhang Jinan scratched the corner of his eyes, and hummed: "Yes, anyway, I have nothing to do tomorrow."

"Then I'll tell them," Li Qiang said, "You really should go out more often, don't stay at home."
