endless city

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Paris, France——

"Such a big incident has happened, and it hasn't been settled yet. What do Huaan Group's crisis public relations do?! Where's Chen Xiao from the public relations department? Ask her to answer the phone!"

Zhou Bizhen was pacing back and forth in the living room with her mobile phone, her face with exquisite makeup was so tense and extremely angry, as if in the next second, she would turn into a wild beast and tear apart all creatures that approached her .

At five o'clock in the afternoon, China, Hua'an Group headquarters——

Chen Xiao from the public relations department picked up the phone tremblingly, and said, "Hey, Mr. Zhou, I have already checked the person who posted the post. He has just registered on the Entertainment World Forum for less than three days, and he is also using a proxy IP address. There is no way to find out his origin..."

"Who asked you to check his background?!" Zhou Bizhen's face became even more ugly, "Even if you are as stupid as a pig and dare to post a post to blackmail our artists under Hua'an, you will definitely wear a vest and use a proxy server—the important thing now How to deal with the aftermath!"

"Yes, yes, I have already contacted the administrators of the forum and asked them to delete the post as soon as possible, and..."

"No——" Zhou Bizhen interrupted her suddenly, and said coldly, "Entertainment World, that is the largest and freest non-governmental forum in China, deleting posts will only arouse public outrage. Besides, after such posts are published, already It spread all over the major websites, and now it’s useless to delete it. Don’t delete it, the post will be put there for everyone to watch with wide eyes. My family, An Yan, has a powerful mother, so what? My dear Zhou Bizhen Son, I am happy to spoil him to the sky!"

The public relations manager on the other end of the phone was so frightened by Mr. Zhou's terrifying aura that he couldn't speak a word.

Zhou Bizhen paused, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "Say hello to the TV station, An Yan will have a talk show tomorrow night, and ask the host to try to focus on family background. Now that it has been exposed, then Just expose it thoroughly! An Yan is not stupid, he should know how to deal with it."

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, I'll do it right away!"

Zhou Bizhen hung up the phone, turned around and sat back on the sofa.

An Yudong gently put his hand on his wife's shoulder, and comforted him in a low voice: "Okay, don't be angry. The matter may not be as serious as you think, and An's family is a well-known business family, so this is not a stain. I have already ordered Now that you have the ticket, you can go back to China tonight, and I will take care of my father."

This time, the couple went to Paris together because Zhou Bizhen's father suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized. Although there was only a small polyp in the stomach and the operation was completed safely, Zhou Bizhen was still worried, so she asked her husband to come to visit with her Father, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen in China after the two of them just left for three days.

"Okay." Zhou Bizhen nodded, took a few sips of cold water on the table, and then whispered: "I regret it now. When An Yan entered the entertainment circle at the age of 18, as a mother, I didn't help at all." Over him... If I had known this, I should have signed him to my own company and packaged him with the treatment of a superstar, instead of watching him start from a rookie, stumble and suffer..."

It was just to see how capable the "least promising" son in the eyes of outsiders would be. That's why when An Yan decided to become an actor, Zhou Bizhen left him alone without saying "Prove it to me". At a young age, An Yan started to work hard in a place like the entertainment industry where fish and dragons are mixed.

Zhou Bizhen still remembers that when An Yan was filming for the first time, he was just an unremarkable male supporting role in an idol drama who had a crush on the heroine.It was a scene where the heroine confessed to the hero in the rain. In the twelfth lunar month of winter, An Yan was wearing a thin shirt in the rain on the street.He stood in the rain and silently watched the girl he liked confess to another boy. He didn't even have a single line, so he just stood in the rain and filmed a few movements and expressions.When the filming was finally over, he happily ran to the director's side while shivering from the cold, and said with a smile: "Director, do you think my performance was okay? Hey, it's my first time acting, actually I... ... a little nervous."

At that time, An Yan was still a young boy, his body hadn't even fully grown. It was the first time he participated in a TV series, and he looked at the director sincerely and uneasy.

Zhou Bizhen didn't tell him that she went to visit the class secretly that day, and she didn't tell him that when she saw that scene, as a mother, she was so distressed that she almost suffocated.

However, she must be ruthless.

Among the An family's four brothers, An Luo is a prodigy in the business world, An Ze became a military commander at a young age, An Mo is extremely talented in painting, and is now a well-known painter.Only An Yan was the least sensible and incompetent since childhood.

Zhou Bizhen thought, this child can't just live a lifetime like this. When An Yan proposed to enter the entertainment industry, even though everyone strongly opposed it, Zhou Bizhen supported her from the bottom of her heart. She expected this son to achieve something. No matter in which field.

However, she won't help him.

People who have been supported by their parents will never walk by themselves.

She wanted to see if this son had the ability to make a living.If there is, that is the best.If not, she wouldn't mind calling him back to An's house to help his brother. He will eat and drink all his life, and An's family can't afford to raise a rice bug.

Unexpectedly, An Yan surprised her very much.

He was 18 years old that year, and after failing the college entrance examination, he went to an unknown art school, and he took the supporting role in that drama, and he rushed to participate in the audition by himself and happened to be chosen by the director.That TV series had very little investment, a poor lineup, and it was filming a vulgar college campus romance. An Yan was very suitable in terms of age and image, so he had the opportunity to play a supporting role, and he cherished it very much. this opportunity.

That was his screen debut. He didn't have a single line. He just stood beside him as the background for the male and female protagonists to confess and embrace each other.

In the winter, the cold wind was biting, he was soaked by the water sprinkled by the prop master on the set, and he ran to the director with a smile and looked forward to asking: "Director, look at my performance just now. ?"

On his face was the most dazzling smile.

At that moment, Zhou Bizhen knew that this son had finally chosen a path that suited him.I also know that An Yan has truly grown up from that moment on.

What a relief for a mother...

Of the An family's four brothers, An Guangyao loves An Luo the most, and looks down on An Yan the most. Every time he hears him scolding An Yan, "You worthless boy", "You unworthy fellow", "You can't compare to your brother's One tenth"... Seeing his hard crutch hitting little An Yan one after another... As a biological mother, how much better can she feel in her heart?

Fortunately, An Yan, her beloved son, did not disappoint her.

Without anyone's help, An Yan took one step at a time and became a hit.

It took a full six years.

Thinking of this, Zhou Bizhen's eyes suddenly became hot.If I had known this before, I shouldn't have let my son fight alone because of his too strong personality... If he used his power and contacts to help him secretly, he would not be as simple as winning the best newcomer award now.Perhaps, her son, who is now an international superstar, won various awards, so he won't be overly excited because of a best newcomer award, and call his elder brother and younger brother to the scene, thus causing such a thing.

Zhou Bizhen closed her eyes lightly, resisting the soreness in her heart, looked at her husband, and said calmly and firmly: "Since they all said that my powerful mother made An Yan popular—then let them see Look, how much I, Zhou Bizhen, can make my son popular!"

-

When An Yan received her mother's call, she was looking through the replies on the forum pretending to be nonchalant.

That post was reputed to be one of the top ten hot topics of the day, and it was reposted everywhere on Weibo. An Yan became the target of public criticism for a while, not to mention the cynicism of various vicious commentators, and many onlookers who were completely ignorant of the truth also followed suit. .An Yan didn't know how to explain it. At this time, it would be wrong to say too much. As an artist, he could only keep silent until the agency came up with a solution.

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly, and it was Zhou Bizhen calling.

Probably going to be scolded again...

An Yan was silent for a while, picked up the phone, and admitted his mistake with a hippie smile: "Mom, I was wrong, don't be angry, international long distance is very expensive, if you want to scold me, don't scold me now, and scold me in person when you come back... ..."

Hearing her son's obviously flattering voice, Zhou Bizhen's heart suddenly softened. She wanted to say a few words to him, but instead said, "Did your grandfather beat you?"

"..." An Yan was a little embarrassed. It is not an honor to be slapped by an elder, but he was used to being beaten since he was a child, and his recovery ability is relatively strong.I couldn't help but reached out and touched the cheek that was beaten by my grandfather. Under Xu Shaoqian's massage, the redness and swelling there had subsided a lot, and the cool temperature that Xu Shaoqian's fingertips slid across the skin seemed to still be comfortable on the face.

An Yan pretended to be relaxed and smiled, and said: "Fortunately, grandpa was teaching me a lesson. Shaoqian suddenly appeared, and my brother called him to come to the rescue in time. Grandpa had to stop and didn't hit me much..."

Listening to her son's duplicity and smiling voice, Zhou Bizhen endured her sadness and said, "It's good that I'm fine. I'm at the airport and I'm going to board the plane soon, so let's not talk about it. You will wait for me in my office tomorrow morning."

"Ah...?" Office?Mom is coming back?

An Yan said "Come back and scold in person", because An Yan felt that his mother would not be able to come back in France for the time being, but in the end, her mother rushed back quickly? !

Zhou Bizhen quickly hung up the phone.An Yan felt a little tight in his chest.My mother was really ruthless and said one thing, this is the rhythm of scolding him face to face, right?Her eloquence is much better than her grandfather's. She can scold people so much that you wish you were never born.Finding someone to save the scene this time...is it still useful?

An Yan thought and thought, and finally, brazenly sent a text message to Xu Shaoqian——

"Shaoqian, are you going back to the company tomorrow to confirm the movie schedule for next year? Our boss Zhou is coming back, if it's convenient for you, come to her office to save my life...^_^"
