rebirth rivalry

An Junqian hadn't seen Meng Jiaxiu since then. Although the woman lived in the villa, she really didn't have any sense of existence, and couldn't even hear a sound.

After resting for two days, An Junqian went back to prepare to continue filming.Although the progress of the crew is very slow, the daily shooting content is very tense.Many people complained behind their backs that the director was too serious. Some young actors had negotiated the price in advance, so of course they were not happy about the delay.

He Xun seems to have been used to such behind-the-scenes discussions for a long time, and there is no change. The places that should be NG are still repeated one by one, and each shot is taken seriously.

After nearly another month of filming like this, the crew's expenses exceeded the budget in everything, and the funds were obviously not enough.He Xun gave everyone a day off in the middle, and then went to discuss the funding issue with the investor himself.

Recently, Xia Yichen started to get busy again, and he didn't come back to the villa for a few days in a week. It seemed that there was a big cooperation to be discussed.However, the two still talk on the phone every day, two or three are often.

On the rest day, An Junqian stayed in the crew. Many young actors came from other places, so they won't go back during the holidays, so they don't feel deserted.

Lei Zongyou happened to have nothing to do that day, so he came to visit the class blatantly.By the way, it also added a lot of popularity and attention to the crew.Because the subject matter of the filming crew is relatively sensitive, but An Junqian has Lei Zong visiting the set, the paparazzi of course will not let go of these opportunities to hype.

But there was no shooting task that day, and the paparazzi did not take any essential photos. The headline was just empty, with no content or evidence.

When Lei Zong arrived at the set, of course there were many young actors watching, many of them asked for autographs and group photos, and then the two went back to the hotel.

Lei Zongyou asked An Junqian, "I heard that Boss Xia tricked Mr. Xia? There have been rumors in the circle these days that Mr. Xia is going to have a grandson. He is very happy."

An Junqian said: "If Mr. Xia finds out, I don't know how angry he will be."

Lei Zongyou just shook his head with a smile, and said: "It's better that no one is in charge of it. It's bullshit for any family and status. After getting married, it's not just that they live their own lives and play their own games. It's all superficial. Don't worry." Speaking of the Xia family, the Luo family still has few illegitimate children? They are very confident. I really don’t know if I was lucky or unlucky to be picked up.”

Although An Junqian was in a rich family in her previous life, Newmoney cannot be compared with a wealthy family like the Xia family at all, even if ten of them are stacked together, they may not be half as good as others.Moreover, An is just a form of marriage, so there is no illegitimate child, and An Junqian has never experienced this.

An Junqian comforted him and said, "You must be lucky, otherwise how would you meet Boss Luo?"

Lei Zong smiled and said, "Maybe it's fate." He seemed to be thinking of the past, feeling a lot of emotion, and said: "At the beginning, when I knew that I had a different mind for Luo Zhenghui, I felt that I was really crazy. At that time I didn't go home for a year, but I still couldn't help asking about him. And Luo Zhenghui took people home for the night every day, and the people below told me every day which lady and young master he was looking for."

He said and wiped his face, "I was really sad at the beginning. I just entered the entertainment industry and was bullied everywhere. It was not good at all. Later, I thought about it and comforted myself. Although we are not mothers Born, but a father, just two men can’t talk forever, let alone brothers.”

An Junqian couldn't get in the way, sometimes he felt that he and Xia Yichen were torn between each other, but thinking about Lei Zongyou and Luo Zhenghui, it might be even more difficult for the two of them, after all they are brothers.

"Guess what Luo Zhenghui told me?" Lei Zong said with a smile, "I have struggled with this problem for many years. Guess what Luo Zhenghui said? At that time, I really wanted to slap him in the face."

An Jun raised his eyebrows shallowly, motioning for him to continue saying not to play charades.

Lei Zongyou said: "He told me very calmly at the time that he didn't ask me to give birth to him, nor would he give birth to a carrier of a recessive genetic disease."

An Junqian laughed out of embarrassment, and said, "I really admire Boss Luo more and more."

Lei Zongyou said again: "How is that woman surnamed Meng?"

"Xia Yichen arranged her in the villa, but I haven't seen her before."

"That's fine." Lei Zongyou said: "It's definitely not safe to stay with Mr. Xia, and all previous efforts will be wasted if the trap is leaked. After the child is born, women must not be able to keep it. Just send it abroad. Let's just say that the delivery was not smooth and died. At that time, Mr. Xia will look at the face of the child and give the Meng family some benefits. Those people probably only have to be grateful, and no one will care about Meng Jiaxiu, who is originally ready to abandon. "

Lei Zongyou stopped talking in the middle, and suddenly stopped, seeming to frown, and said: "I said, what if Meng Jiaxiu gave birth to a girl, what should I do? Wouldn't all previous efforts be for naught."

The corners of An Junqian's mouth twitched, and he said, "Crow's mouth..."

"Also, I heard that your filming progress here is not satisfactory, and the funds have run out, so it won't be yellow?" Lei Zongyou said: "You still pick and choose this kind of small film in the future. Wouldn't it be a waste of money if it turns yellow?" months."

"I like this script, that's why I accepted it. Although it's a small production, I have worked with Director He a few times, and I am very responsible and serious. It may not be a hit in the end, but I think I should try it." An Junqian said .

Lei Zongyou originally planned to stay until the evening, but He Xun came to An Junqian in the afternoon, saying that the investor wanted to meet him, and the appointment was tonight, so I don't know if he is free.

Lei Zong frowned instinctively. Most of the people who were appointed to accompany him for dinner were taken in by them. There must be no good things. After dinner, he should go to sleep with him.

He Xun also knew what he meant, and just said: "I will go with you at night."

An Junqian is more at ease. He has worked with He Xun several times, so he still knows him well. If He Xun is a director who is willing to take jobs for his artists, he would have become famous five years ago, and he doesn't have to wait until now. He was still underestimated by others, so he said: "It just so happens that I was still curious about investing before, and I'm fine tonight, so I'll go meet you."

Lei Zong had something to do at night and couldn't go with him, so he gave some instructions and left early.

An Junqian thought for a while, then sent Xia Yichen a text message, telling him that he had dinner tonight, and he would not call him when the time came.

Xia Yichen quickly called back: "Are you going to have dinner with the crew's investment?"

"Well, 06:30 in the evening." An Junqian didn't hide anything from him, and told him the address as well as the time.The investment is not a high-end place, but a western restaurant, not too far from the crew.

Xia Yichen said: "I'm busy today and I will rest for two days. I will pick you up at the restaurant in the evening."

Xia Yichen has been busy with acquisitions again these two days. Ever since Lu Yuan left the Lu family without leaving the house, the strength of the Lu family has been severely damaged. Although there is a new person in charge to manage the Lu family, it cannot be relieved for a while. You can't argue with the Xia family.

Except for such a strong opponent as the Lu family, it stands to reason that Xia Yichen should be much more relaxed, but people are always greedy, and there will be other business families who take advantage of the opportunity to climb up, such as Anze.

Mr. Anzheng recognized Anze as his adopted son, which meant that he wanted to hand over the inheritance of the Anzheng family.However, because Mr. Anzheng is still in good health, he will not retreat to the second line for a while, but there is also a tendency to overdo Anze's side.

An Ze used to please and attach himself to the Xia family, this is obvious to anyone in the circle with a discerning eye.Neither Xia Yichen nor Luo Zhenghui showed any displeasure. After all, they could take advantage of them, so there was no need to refuse.

But now Anze's wings are hardened, he is getting more and more unstable, and he starts to do some small tricks secretly.Originally, the project that I worked with the Xia family would secretly treat the partner to a meal, or send some gifts to make arrangements in advance, to get closer to the relationship, and so on.

Xia Yichen turned a blind eye at the beginning, Anze thought he did it cleanly, but he would always be found out if he did it too often, and Xia Yichen, who was harmless, didn't want to bother.But Anze's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, so he has to be careful.

Luo Zhenghui said that Anze must not be kept, the more he keeps it, the greater the hidden danger.Anjia, or it will be completely ruined, or it will be put away.

Xia Yichen also meant the same thing.

Not long ago, he asked Luo Zhenghui to help him find out about the An family. Naturally, there was a lot of information about An Junqian's young master An.Xia Yichen had known for a long time that An Junqian was not a child of the An family, so he would not be surprised by some of the descriptions in the materials.For example, Anzheng actually didn't like the Crown Prince of the An family, he often scolded him when he was a child, but he didn't care about him when he was older.Also, Mrs. An often cried when she saw An Junqian, and she had never formally brought An Junqian to any event.

Xia Yichen read the documents carefully, and was stunned for a moment.Last time at the party, An Junqian drank a little too much, and muttered a lot of things, although they were a little vague, but they were generally understandable.He thought it was drunken nonsense before, but he didn't think about it seriously, but now he remembered it when he looked at the information in his hand.

This kind of matter of being reborn in someone else's body after death, if someone hadn't said it himself, I'm afraid no one would go there to think about it. After all, it's not a supernatural show.

Xia Yichen's focus was not on this, but it suddenly occurred to him that Mr. Xia disagreed with An Junqian's affairs with himself. It was always because of the heir issue, and because An Junqian lost a status, so he always used these words to block him. them.

If the An family suddenly made an announcement on the media, saying that An Junqian was the young master of the An family who had been lost for many years, then An Junqian would not only be an artist, but also be a wealthy man.Although the An family can't compare with the Xia family, at least it can stop Mr. Xia's mouth.

Xia Yichen had an idea, so he approached Luo Zhenghui to discuss countermeasures.Luo Zhenghui was quite surprised when he heard that, and said, "You want to give Xiao Qian'an an identity?"

Xia Yichen nodded and said: "I think the An family is very suitable, and their surnames also happen to be the same. The main reason is that the status of the An family is not exaggerated, it can make Xiaoqian stand out, but it won't push him to the limelight."

"That's good, but," Luo Zhenghui said, "If Anzheng recognizes a son for no reason, he will definitely not let it go easily. He must set a trap for the An family. This is not a matter of short-term effort."

"I also know that this kind of thing can't be rushed." Xia Yichen said: "Recently, Xiaoqian has been filming. There can't be any problems with the woman surnamed Meng, and I'm almost too busy. Let it go and wait until I've been busy for a while." Think slowly."

Luo Zhenghui nodded, and said, "Speaking of the drama that Xiaoqian accepted. Xiaoyou called me just now and mentioned something. Do you know who invested in this drama? Who is the screenwriter? This is all It’s an old friend, but the world is still too small.”

An Junqian followed He Xun to the western restaurant.The restaurant looks small and not classy.They asked for a private room, and there was only a table and four chairs in the private room. It was difficult to stand up and turn around in such a small space.

When they arrived, the investor hadn't come yet, so An Junqian and He Xun sat down first.They had only said a few words before they heard a waiter leading someone over from outside.Glancing at the time, it was exactly 27:[-], which seemed to be very punctual.

The only person who came in was a man in his 30s, in a black suit.An Junqian had a feeling that she guessed right, but felt very surprised. It was very conflicting but not against harmony. It really made people wonder what it was like.The person who came in was Lu Yuan who had left the Lu family.

Lu Yuan called An Junqian, as if he had been prepared for a long time, saw him greeted with a smile, and said, "We meet again, Mr. An."

He Xun didn't expect them to know each other.When Lu Yuan proposed to meet An Junqian, He Xun disagreed at first. He hated the unspoken rules about his artists, so he flatly refused.At that time, Lu Yuan also knew what he was thinking, so he assured him that it was absolutely simple to eat and ask for advice, and had no other thoughts.

An Junqian shook hands with him, and said, "When I saw the script, I wondered who was going to shoot this movie, but I didn't expect it was really Mr. Lu."

Lu Yuan sat down, didn't get into the topic directly, called the waiter very politely, ordered dinner for the three of them first, and said: "Don't be disgusted, you two, I am starting from nothing now, and I have made a little money and invested in making movies, so treat me I can’t afford to invite you for a meal. This kind of place is something I never thought about before, but now I look at it and it still tastes a little bit.”

The three of them ordered, and waited for the waiter to serve the dinner, and then the door of the private room was closed tightly.

Lu Yuan said: "I heard Director He say that the progress of the crew is relatively slow, and here is my reason. I asked Director He to show me a little bit after filming. Of course, what I got was unedited footage. Many places felt that it was not correct. If it is suitable, I will send it back, and I will trouble you to re-shoot. So I am also very responsible for your slow filming."

He paused, and continued: "This film must not be abandoned halfway, nor can it be finished casually. I will continue to provide funds and try my best to meet the needs of the crew."

After hearing this, He Xun finally felt relieved. After all, not all investors would be so generous in such a drama that was destined to not be a hit.Investors mainly look at profits, and no one wants to lose money if they have no money to make.

Lu Yuan's eyes fell on An Junqian, and said: "Mr. An may know that this drama is not only fun and a whim for me, but also has great meaning....Maybe you think it's too late to do anything now..."

An Junqian didn't speak, and the private room was quiet for 2 minutes before he said: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I like the script very much, so I won't just finish it."

Lu Yuan said: "To tell you the truth, I also saw this novel on the Internet and felt very emotional. It seemed to overlap a lot, so I was excited and wanted to make it into a movie. Then I found a screenwriter and then processed this novel. , I really didn’t expect it, and I was shocked to find the script written by this screenwriter.”

An Jun understood what he meant.He read the novel in general, but the novel and the script are not very big, and the screenwriter has adapted many places.Originally, the novel could only be said to have some faint similarities, but after reading the script, he felt that the protagonist was Rong Yan.

Lu Yuan said: "After reading the script, I felt that I was not just impulsive. I really wanted to record these things. Even if no one cheered, I would lose money if I didn't sell the show. I also wanted to keep something."

He Xun didn't know much about Lu Yuan and Rong Yan's affairs, and the two people's troubles at that time were known to the world, but He Xun was a bit dull and rigid, and he didn't really believe in these gossip news, so he didn't pay much attention to them.I haven't spoken all the time, but now I understand that this drama may be about a real story.

"I want to meet the screenwriter." An Junqian said suddenly.After Lu Yuan said this, he became more interested in screenwriting.

Lu Yuan shook his head and said: "This screenwriter has not been contacted for several months. I handed in the script before, but I didn't show up. I have never met him. I have sent several emails to contact, but there is no reply recently. "

They talked about some questions about the script, and then Lu Yuan talked to He Xun about the future arrangements.He will transfer the funds as soon as possible, and then go to other places for a period of time. When he comes back, he will be invited to talk with him. If there are still problems, let him raise them.

It was past nine o'clock when they were talking about the same thing.He Xun looked at the time, and then said: "It's getting late, the crew will start working as usual tomorrow, and Mr. Lu should be busy too, so I won't disturb your rest time."

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "I have to catch a plane tomorrow morning, so I can't be late."

He stood up as he spoke, and the three of them planned to leave the restaurant.

An Junqian took out his phone and checked the time. At [-]:[-], Xia Yichen sent him a text message. It was [-]:[-], saying that he was already waiting for him outside the restaurant.

"By the way, Mr. An." Lu Yuan called An Junqian to stop, and seemed to remember something, took out a piece of paper from the pocket of the windbreaker, handed it over, and said, "There are still important matters, and I would like to ask Mr. An for help."

An Junqian took the paper, feeling a little thick, not ordinary printing paper. When he picked it up, it turned out to be a photo, of course it was him.What shocked him was that the background in the photo was in front of the hotel of Tang Xuan's crew, and there was another man inside, wearing sunglasses, a windbreaker and a hat, covering him tightly.

But An Junqian could tell at a glance that it was herself and Rong Yan.Because Rong Yan wanted to teach himself some acting knowledge, he stayed with him in the crew hotel for a long time.

An Junqian was a little stunned. He didn't expect to be secretly photographed, and Lu Yuan got the photo. He didn't know how to answer for a while.

Lu Yuan said, "If Mr. An knows anything, please tell me."

An Junqian still didn't speak, and Lu Yuan said again: "I can guarantee that I won't be impulsive, and won't appear in front of him suddenly. But I still want to know his current news very much..."

"Sorry, Mr. Lu." An Junqian quickly regained his composure, smiled and returned the photo to Lu Yuan, then turned around and left the door of the private room.

When he went out, he saw Xia Yichen's car in the parking space on the side of the road. The window of the man in the car was half open, smoking a cigarette, and he saw him waving.

An Junqian got into the co-pilot and said, "Aren't you afraid of being photographed by the paparazzi? You're so swaggering."

"No," Xia Yichen said, "The place Lu Yuan chose is already very cheap, and there are usually no paparazzi around here."

An Jun raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "You already knew that Lu Yuan was the investment in this drama?"

Xia Yichen shook his head, "No, Luo Zhenghui just told me today."

An Junqian said: "I also found out just now." He frowned as he spoke, "Lu Yuan showed me a photo before leaving, Brother Rong and I were secretly photographed, it was in the last time the crew I don’t know if there are other photos leaked out. It will be troublesome if others know about this matter. Everyone thought Brother Rong passed away, but now he suddenly reappeared, there will definitely be a lot of trouble.”

"I'll ask someone to inquire about this matter, don't worry." Xia Yichen said: "Just because Lu Yuan got the photo, it should be easy to handle. It's been a while since this matter has not been exposed, so it shouldn't be a big problem Rong Yan should be safe now, and if Lu Yuan finds him, he won't need to show you the photos again."

An Jun sighed lightly and could only nod his head.

Xia Yichen went to check the photos, and the results were available the next day.At that time, An Junqian was filming in the crew, and it happened to be a break.

Xia Yichen told him that there was indeed a small magazine that took pictures of them.But because Rong Yan covered her tightly, she didn't realize it was him.I just want to write news about An Junqian, saying that An Junqian has a close relationship with a mysterious man and so on.But before the report was published, Lu Yuan saw it and bought it at a high price, so the report was suppressed and never exposed.

Lu Yuan was very excited when he saw the photo.He and Rong Yan have known each other for so many years, and he can tell at a glance that the person in the photo is him.But after getting the photo for a long time, he only knew that Rong Yan was still alive, but he couldn't find the person, so he thought of An Junqian, taking He Xun's opportunity to ask him out, just to ask about Rong Yan's whereabouts matter.
