Zhaoyang searched for a long time, but found nothing. He was about to turn around and go back to try his luck in another area, when suddenly a person stopped him.

Zhaoyang was taken aback, and looked up carefully. He saw a strange man in his 20s and 30s in a white suit, whom he didn't recognize.

Zhaoyang thought he was just in the way of others, so he smiled apologetically and wanted to go around.

The man stopped him, "Hello?"

Zhaoyang stopped, turned to look at the other party, "... hello."

Wait for the other party to say that they have admitted the wrong person.

Seeing Zhaoyang stop, the man leaned over, "I seem to have seen you somewhere?" He said, took out a business card holder from the inner pocket of the suit, took out one with two fingers and handed it to Zhaoyang, "This is my business card. "

Zhao Yang took it with both hands, earnestly paying attention to the glittering titles on the business card—Marketing Director of Shengshi Cultural Group, and CEO of Golden Year Films, Shengnian.

Zhaoyang put away the business card and said politely, "Mr. Sheng, my name is Zhaoyang. I'm sorry, I didn't bring my business card today."

If it wasn't today, he wouldn't have prepared a business card.

"Zhaoyang?" Sheng Nian glanced at Zhaoyang meaningfully. He seems to have heard the name recently, but there are too many such tepid little stars, how can he remember them all, "Tonight alone Come?"

Zhaoyang felt that the question was a bit abrupt, but he couldn't answer it. He was about to say that he came to meet a friend, but when the words came to his lips, he changed his words, "Yes."

One-sided peeking cannot be counted as seeing.

"Don't be in a hurry," Sheng Nian asked, "have a drink?"

Zhaoyang faintly realized something, and still smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I...I still have something to do..."

"What's the matter?" Sheng Nian took it easy, "Tell me, maybe I can solve it for you."

The tone is casual and very natural, as if this is not a discussion, but an order.

Zhaoyang: "..."

You can't solve it.

"...I'm allergic to alcohol, so I can't drink alcohol." Zhaoyang had to put it another way.

Sheng Nian laughed, he has heard this sentence before, if it is not a thousand, it will be eight hundred, you can't drink, come to this kind of occasion?Why do you need to set up a memorial archway?

"It's fine to drink low-alcohol fruit wine, just like a drink." Sheng Nian said.

Zhaoyang: "..."

Zhaoyang wanted to be ugly and refused directly, but he was afraid that the scene would be too ugly. It was really not in line with the rules of the world to still hold it like this when everyone else came.But now he only has Jian Xing in his heart, and he doesn't want to talk to anyone.

What's more, it was such a person he didn't know.

The two were in an imperceptible stalemate, when a person suddenly came over and grabbed Zhaoyang, "Zhaoyang, are you here too?"

Zhaoyang was stunned, why is there another one?

It was a very young male artist named Bai Jia. They had only met a few times, and they were not familiar at all.

It was the year before last, when Zhaoyang went to audition for a film crew, and that's where he met Bai Jia. At that time, Bai Jia had just debuted and was very tender.

After the audition, the chief director expressed on the spot that he was very satisfied with Zhaoyang's performance. Zhaoyang thought that the role was stable, but later received a call from the assistant director of casting, saying that the role had already been decided by someone else.

Lin Xigu inquired about some gossip, saying that Bai Jia's company cut off Hu, and snatched that role as the first resource for Bai Jia's debut.Zhaoyang didn't pay much attention to it, and only after the TV series aired did he realize that it was indeed Bai Jia who played that role.

It's okay, audition failure is a common thing, casting must take into account various factors, only look at the strength of the cast, it is an ideal in the world, it is hard to come by.

Zhaoyang and Bai Jia didn't even add WeChat. They were just acquaintances at the time. It was amazing that he could remember Bai Jia's name. Just now, the two met each other from a distance, but they both tacitly did not greet each other.

Now, Bo Jia grabbed his arm as soon as he came up, with that affectionate look, those who didn't know it thought they had become sworn brothers in Taoyuan.

Of course Zhao Yang would not slap Bai Jia in the face on the spot, so he could only laugh along with him and perform as best he could.

"You know each other?" Sheng Nian asked knowingly.

"I met my brother before~" Bai Jia smiled brightly.

Bai Jia was 16 years old when he debuted, and now he is 18 years old. He pretends to be a younger brother to almost everyone. What can Zhaoyang do? He is indeed a round faster than others.

At this moment, Bai Jia acted like a baby, "Brother, come and play with us~ Long time no see, I want to talk to you~"

Baijia came out of the deck in his prime.

Zhaoyang: "..."

If he insisted on refusing, he could only leave by force.But he can't go yet.

The so-called low-alcohol fruit wine is not low-alcohol at all, and it may be that Zhaoyang's physique that does not touch alcohol is too much to bear, and he does not remember being half-persuaded and half-filled. Zhaoyang used the excuse of going to the bathroom to escape out.

I want to vomit but can't get it out, a nausea lingers in my stomach, up and down.My head is also dizzy.Zhaoyang had no choice but to wash his face, and stayed in front of the sink for a long time, until someone came in, he quickly took a tissue to wipe his hands, opened the door and went out.

But I don't want to go back to the banquet hall, I don't want to see those people again.Just now, Sheng Nian frantically hinted that he has several projects ready to start filming, and the protagonist is still being selected. Bai Jia couldn't wait to answer the conversation, asking if he was suitable, Sheng Nian smiled without saying a word, and his eyes wandered around Zhaoyang.

Zhaoyang felt sick again.

Seeing that there seemed to be a corner at the end of the corridor, it was a bit dark, and no one was there, Zhaoyang hesitated for a moment, and walked over.

I just want to be alone and clean.By the way, think about how to get out completely when you go out later.

Footsteps sounded behind him.

Zhaoyang was startled, and looking back, it was the prime of life.

Sheng Nian strode up to him, Zhao Yang backed away subconsciously, not hiding the astonishment in his eyes.Sheng Nian's hypocritical smile reveals the indifference of not really caring, "Seeing that you haven't come out for so long, I'm afraid that something will happen to you."

Zhaoyang: "...I'm fine."

As he said that, Zhaoyang wanted to bypass Shengnian who was standing in front of him and walk back to the banquet hall.

It's too secluded here, and he doesn't feel comfortable being alone with this person.

Sheng Nian reached for his arm, "You are drunk, I will support you."

Zhaoyang shrank back abruptly, "No need...!"

The tone suddenly became cold, and there were short impacts in the empty corridor.

Sheng Nian was a little stunned, and then grabbed Zhaoyang's left wrist, "This watch is not bad."

Zhao Yang opened his eyes wide.

Sheng Nian quickly let go, chuckled, "It's worth 200 million."

Zhaoyang clenched his fists tightly.

"If you want, I'll give you 1000 million." Sheng Nian continued, "Or the male number one of those dramas just now, you can choose whatever you want." He looked at Zhaoyang with a smile on his lips, "I still want to What else? You say."

A businessman cherishes time like gold, and he has no time for flirting.

"I don't need anything." Zhaoyang tried his best to stabilize, his voice was still trembling, "Can you let it go?"

Sheng Nian sneered, and continued to pretend, "Have you always liked to play like this? Is that why you got dumped?"

Zhaoyang's face turned pale.

Seeing Zhaoyang's reaction, Shengnian felt that he guessed right.The first time he saw Zhaoyang, he decided that he was sure of this person.

He said that it is true that Zhaoyang looks familiar, but he did not see his play, but saw the poster hanging in the lobby when he went to the "Times" headquarters to discuss cooperation a while ago.

The hall of "Time Chronicles" is the cover exhibition hall, and every new cover will be replaced.When Sheng Nian saw Zhaoyang's photo, he was attracted.

with a sense.

He didn't bother to inquire, and was soon too busy to forget about it.He didn't expect to meet here tonight. After chatting with Zhaoyang for a while, he remembered that it was this person.

The solemn and lustful face in the black and white photo left a deep impression on him.

Then he notices that Zhaoyang's watch doesn't match his clothes.

To be honest, that watch is not low in style. Although the current market price is around 200 million, it is an anniversary limited edition. In the field of famous watches, rare things are always the most expensive. Whether it looks good or not is practical. In a few years , Chopard's Sun, Moon and Star series is likely to appreciate in value, and it will be more than 200 million by then.

In the concept of prime years, as long as it is not high-end, it is cheap.So Zhaoyang in his eyes is dressed poorly, but wearing a famous watch that he can't afford.

Came here alone, ignored, looked around, anxious and disappointed.

Sheng Nian came to the conclusion that a starlet was dumped by the financial backer.

Zhaoyang's original attraction to him was immediately removed from the filter, the desire was still there, and the fantasy was gone.It seems that there is not much difference from others. Anyway, it can be bought with money. To save trouble, it doesn't matter how many times the price he pays.

It turned out that Zhaoyang didn't seem to cooperate very much.This touched his scales.

They are all nurturing, other benefactors can do it, but he can't?

"Be direct." Seeing Zhaoyang's lips trembling slightly, Sheng Nian said, "Everyone gets what they need, don't be so pretentious."

"Okay." Zhaoyang said.

"Huh?" Zhaoyang answered the words without warning, Sheng Nian was stunned for a moment, waiting for him to raise conditions.

Zhaoyang raised his hand and punched.

Is it direct enough?

With a bang, Sheng Nian felt a pain in the left side of his face, and took a few steps back, staring at Zhao Yang who was half a head shorter than him in astonishment.

No matter what, he was a man, and he punched him with all his strength. As long as it wasn't made of iron, it was impossible for him to be unscathed.

Zhaoyang brushed past him and ran away.

The punch just now was purely a sneak attack, and Zhaoyang knew very well that if he really got up, he would not be an opponent in his prime.

He didn't know what Shengnian would do when he was angry.He doesn't have a single friend he can trust here. To put it bluntly, even if Sheng Nian forces him into the car, no one may dare to stop him.

"How dare you fucking hit me—" Sheng Nian also reacted quickly, turning around and chasing after him.His legs were longer than Zhaoyang's, and within a few steps he drew closer and grabbed his clothes.Zhaoyang was jerked violently, staggered, and stood firm while leaning on the wall. Sheng Nian took advantage of the situation, grabbed Zhaoyang by the collar and pushed him against the wall, "How dare you fucking hit me? I'll kill you Believe it or not—"

Zhaoyang pushed him away desperately, and the two began to fight in an unseemly manner. There was a sound of footsteps rumbling from far and near. Zhaoyang wanted to call for help, but he couldn't. , "Quickly hold him down—"

Then there was another bang.

Zhaoyang was startled, and this time he watched Shengnian fall to the ground.

Sheng Nian was also shocked.

He had just been slapped on the left cheek by Zhaoyang.

Now he was slapped on the right cheek again.

He's going to blow up.

Zhaoyang stood with his back against the wall, gasped for breath, and looked at the person coming.

Jian Xing flicked his left hand that had been exerted too much force just now, and regardless of whether Zhaoyang reacted or not, he pulled him up and ran out.

People rushed from behind Jian Xing, and he led Zhaoyang to break out of the siege. Although Xiao Zhao didn't know it, he dutifully opened the way for them. Jian Xing held Zhaoyang's hand tightly, shook off the chaotic banquet behind him, and rushed After entering the freight elevator, the world became quiet again.

Zhao Yang's heart was pounding.

Jian Xing's hands were as hot as before.It has already come out, but Jian Xing doesn't let go, and he doesn't break free.

"Senior, you..."

"sorry--"

The two spoke at the same time.

Zhaoyang continued, "The one I hit first..."

"Oh." Jian Xing said, "Anyone who can make seniors take action must be the one to fight."

Zhao Yang couldn't help laughing.

Although laughing a bit miserably.His mouth seemed to be scratched by the ring on Shengnian's hand just now, and now it hurts when he pulls it.

Some of the buttons of the suit were also missing.Her hair was probably all messed up, too.He didn't know how embarrassed Jian Xing saw himself now.

Jian Xing wanted to wipe Zhaoyang with a tissue, but realized that they were still holding hands.I didn't have time to think about anything when I pulled it, but now I suddenly realized that I was holding the switch of the nuclear weapon in my hand.

The scalps of both of them were numb, but neither of them was ashamed to let go.

When the passenger elevator was about to reach the negative floor, Jian Xing's cell phone rang.

Zhaoyang took the initiative to withdraw his hand.

When Jian Xing answered the phone, it was Brother Ji's voice, "Where's the person?"

"Come right back." After Jian Xing said these four words, she hung up the phone calmly.

Then he called Xiao Zhao and told him to come to the parking lot and drive Zhaoyang home in his car.

"I can't go." Zhaoyang was anxious.

If he left, who would Shengnian turn to to vent his anger?

He just ran because he wanted to go to a crowded place first, in case Sheng Nian would be lynched, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he would not be so out of line.

"Aren't you going to stay here for the New Year?" Jian Xing said, "Don't worry, I can handle it well."

Zhaoyang shook his head, "I'll go find him."

Jian Xing knew who this "he" was referring to, and turned cold, "What can you do if you find him?"

"Apologize to him, or... do whatever you want." As long as Sheng Nian can not pursue Jian Xing.

Jian Xing frowned, "I can do anything?"

Zhaoyang was speechless: "..."

Zhaoyang: "I...not..."

that is not what I meant.

"Senior," Jian Xing said, "do you know what I admire most about you?"

"Huh?" Zhaoyang didn't know why.

"You've been defying the rules."

Zhaoyang's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to cry.

After a moment, he shook his head, "I didn't."

He has been obedient for so long.Impossible to disobey.

Jian Xing also shook her head, "There are many things that you have never approved in your heart, and you have never compromised."

He can lower his expectations in life, but his beliefs never back down.

When spiritual freedom is deprived, it is the time of real depravity.

"So," Jian Xing said, "if you apologize to him today, isn't it just to admit that what he did is not wrong?"

Zhaoyang was startled.

Some things, wrong is wrong, why there is always a reason to misinterpret it as right?

"Senior, don't do this."

Don't do this for me.Don't do it for anyone.

"Yeah." Zhaoyang nodded with difficulty, his nose sore.

Jian Xing waited for Xiao Zhao to come, and watched Xiao Zhao drive Zhaoyang out of the parking lot, then turned around and entered the elevator, and went upstairs to face the storm.

It's been a long time since Brother Ji has given someone a smile like this. Sheng Nian was furious and left the stage angrily. Before leaving, he sent a message to Brother Ji, waiting for him to block those two people.

While appeasing the scene, Brother Ji used both hard and soft tactics to tell the witnesses not to spread today's events to the outside world, while at the same time notifying the company team to prepare for public relations work.

As soon as Jian Xing came back, the first thing she did was to go to the hotel manager and ask to check the surveillance video.

The monitoring screen in the bathroom corridor was a bit blurry due to poor lighting, but they could probably see the movements of the two clearly. Sheng Nian followed Zhaoyang from a distance, stopped him, and suddenly grabbed his hand, and then the two did not know what to say. After a few words, Zhaoyang punched him.

Jian Xing couldn't help raising her eyebrows.Usually, I always feel that Zhaoyang's grandma is fierce and has no deterrent effect at all, but he is really ruthless...

It's quite sassy.

But it's more stuffy.Especially seeing the part in the banquet hall, Sheng Nian suddenly dragged Zhaoyang over to drink, and poured wine to Zhaoyang one cup after another. Every time Zhaoyang was forced to take a sip, Jian Xing felt that the day he beat Shengnian The punch was too light.

Zhaoyang has worked so hard to stay away from the filth in the circle, why not let him go?

Zhou Ran heard that someone was going to block him, so he rushed over in half an hour and took a look at the surveillance.In the guest room, Jian Xing and Zhou Ran sat opposite each other, and Brother Ji paced back and forth restlessly.

He was about to be blown up by Jian Xing, and there were a hundred thousand reasons in his mind. He had been looking at the line of Shengshi Group for a long time, and wanted to find an opportunity to promote their cooperation with Jian Xing. What kind of brain damage did Jian Xing have? Why do such stupid things as beating the management?

But there are outsiders, and the focus now is to solve the problem. Ji Gesheng swallowed his rant to Jian Xing and began to think rationally, "If this surveillance is exposed and Shengnian goes through legal procedures, then there is no need to fight. We full responsibility."

It is a fact that Zhaoyang made the first move, and then Jian Xing came, regardless of 21, and punched Shengnian again.

A punch is not a serious crime, it is a civil case at most, but the key point is that this kind of negative news also involves the two parties involved in "Stars and Sunshine". The influence of word-of-mouth is very bad. If the other party fights a large-scale public opinion war, it may cause the whole network to boycott Jian Xing and Zhaoyang.

This is really blocked.

"Don't worry," Zhou Ran said, "you don't have to wait until tomorrow, he will let the hotel delete the surveillance."

Jian Xing glanced at Zhou Ran, and was not surprised by what he said, and obviously thought of something with him a long time ago.

Brother Ji is skeptical.

Zhou Ran pushed the butt of the cigarette into the ashtray, "If I were him, I wouldn't sue. It's impossible for this matter to get out."

Brother Ji understood a little bit.

He was too nervous about Jian Xing's future. He just thought about this issue purely from the perspective of an artist. If Shengnian is also an artist, this is a very good marketing opportunity for Shengnian.

Ke Shengnian is a businessman.

He is also the third son of the Sheng family.The Sheng family is the major shareholder of Shengshi Group.

If this scandal really gets out, the public will have one opinion, and the industry will have another opinion.

Before the prime year, he had taken care of a few starlets, and men and women killed each other. This story is not widely spread, but the circles overlap after all, and Zhou Ran has heard of it to some extent.

The Sheng family is famous and well-known. The three sons of the Sheng family are playing around in private. Everyone just turns a blind eye. If the unspoken rules failed and he was beaten up, it was tantamount to humiliating the Sheng family's face all at once.

According to Zhou Ran's own experience, Sheng Nian would die in his father's hands if he did this.

Even if he spared some life, he would have no face in this business anymore.

This is the same as if a gangster loses a fight, it is impossible to report to the police station.Children are the only ones who talk about fairness and justice seriously, and adults have adult solutions.

"If I were him," Zhou Ran said again, "I'd be private."

"Why is it private?" Brother Ji was puzzled. Does this mean that they should go to Sheng Nian to ask for peace in private?

"Use the means I can use to kill you." Zhou Ran said, "The Sheng family will probably help him." He looked at Jian Xing, "You hit him in the face, isn't that the Sheng family's face?"

"He wants to block me, he thinks too much." Jian Xing raised his legs and smiled nonchalantly, "Can he withdraw all my resources?"

The network of relationships in the entertainment circle is intricate and intertwined. Jian Xing is not a small bean, and his contacts and resources cannot be cut off by just cutting off all of them.

"He can't block you alone," Ji Ge said, "but if your behavior spreads in the industry, which employer would dare to use you?"

The management likes obedient artists, and negative news will also have a great impact on high-end endorsements.

Jian Xing pointed at Zhou Ran, "He."

Brother Ji: "..."

Brother Ji: "Are you still in the mood to joke?"

"Don't joke, don't joke," Zhou Ran got excited and took advantage of the situation, "You mean you're coming to act in my project?"

"No acting." Jian Xing said.

Zhou Ran: "? And the male lead doesn't act either?"

Jian Xing squinted at him, "As far as your stupid scripts are concerned, the male characters don't act."

Zhou Ran's business philosophy is straightforward, making quick money.He is now in the initial stage, unlike those big groups with a long history, they can't spend hundreds of millions to build a national-level IP at once, so they can only speed up the speed of capital accumulation, and making commercial dramas is the most feasible.

"Then which book do you like?" Zhou Ran didn't give up, "Say, I'll buy it."

"Xing'er," seeing the two getting further and further apart, Brother Ji couldn't hold back, and wanted to say something in front of Zhou Ran, "You were very sensible before, and you were never so impulsive."

He has seen employers who are much more disgusting than those in his prime, especially when he first debuted. He is outstanding, but he is not well-known. Others bully him for his low qualifications. Jian Xing could not bear to get mad on the spot when a greasy uncle in his 50s touched his thigh under the dining table.

Brother Ji just appreciates his good self-control, he is much more stable than the average frizzy young man, he knows how to talk to people, he talks nonsense, he is capable of great things.

Jian Xing leaned back in the chair, "Because I knew exactly what I wanted before."

No matter how disgusting those people are, he doesn't care.

"Brother Ji," Jian Xing smiled, "I haven't changed now. I still know what I want."

Brother Ji: "..." I fucking believe in your evil.

As Zhou Ran expected, Sheng Nian sent someone to the hotel to delete the surveillance within an hour after leaving.Since both parties have no objection, the hotel dare not refuse.

Without monitoring, there were very few people who witnessed the beating scene that night, and the scandal was suppressed in time without any rumors. However, Jian Xing and Liang Zi of the Shengshi Group were thus concluded.Brother Ji took the initiative to attack, and for the few scripts he was waiting to see, all those related to Shengshi Group should be eliminated.Several advertisements in which Shengshi Group holds shares, and variety shows in which it participates in investment or sponsorship are also listed according to the proportion of holdings and the size of the investment, but projects that Shengshi Group has the right to speak are not considered.

Even if they use Jian Xing, they have to prevent them from wearing Jian Xing's small shoes.

Shengshi Group really can't represent the entire entertainment industry, and Jian Xing still has no shortage of resources if he doesn't cooperate with them.

He was worried about Zhaoyang.
