A dedicated cannon fodder

He Chengyun's eyes gradually calmed down, and Ye Suyan saw his own reflection in those blue eyes.

He believed that He Chengyun could also see his shadow in his own eyes.

The room became very quiet again.

Ye Suyan slightly hooked the corners of his lips, let go of the restraint on He Chengyun and stood up.

He Chengyun maintained his original posture and did not move, but Ye Suyan didn't look at him anymore, he just turned around and walked towards the door.

As soon as he put his hand on the doorknob, he heard a muffled "boom", and the black box containing the watch was thrown to his feet, on the floor covered with warm and soft woolen carpet.

The box flicked, and the well-made and expensive watch fell out of the open box, lying pitifully on the gray carpet like trash thrown away by someone.

It fell out together with a thin, golden little card.

Ye Suyan hesitated for a moment, after all, he only glanced at the watch and the small card on the ground, opened the door and walked out.

The room became quiet again, only He Chengyun's slightly heavy breathing sounded rhythmically.

After a long time, he finally sat up from the bed and walked slowly to the door.

A small card made of golden metal was lying at his feet, reflecting a few rays of light under the light of the room, as if mocking him.

With the inscription, there are exactly seven characters on the card.

happy Birthday.

——Ye Suyan.

==================

As soon as Ye Suyan went out, he received a urging call from Ji Hannan.

I greeted Wei Xuan again, and when I returned to the Brilliant Headquarters with Ji Hannan, it was almost eleven o'clock.

After twelve o'clock, the box office of the movie's first day will be known.Although Wang Yan and Qin Ya looked the same as usual, Ye Suyan knew that they must also be looking forward to it, just like himself.

Because when no one pays, they don't expect anything in return.

The atmosphere in the lounge was not much different from when he left, except that Wang Yan no longer chatted with the assistant director, but chatted and laughed with Qin Ya while drinking red wine.

Ye Suyan greeted them, and then sat with Ji Hannan in the same seat by the window where he had sat before.

Time passed quickly, talking and laughing, the bell finally rang at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.

At the same time, their mobile phones rang.

Almost at the same time, the main creators of the crew all received congratulatory calls or text messages——

The box office of "Dark War" exceeded [-] million on the first day!

Even Wang Yan was a little surprised. After all, the cost of feature films is not as high as those sci-fi and fantasy blockbusters with eye-catching visual effects.As a director with great box office appeal, he is brilliant and willing to praise him, and the investor is generous, only 8000 million.

Qin Ya was the first to applaud, and the staff of Brilliance were very winking. The champagne had already been prepared, and it was already past midnight. Knowing that the box office was good, they immediately arranged it cheerfully.

Ye Suyan also laughed. After half a year of hard work, it was the first time he participated in a movie as a leading actor. He was really happy to achieve such a result.

Naturally, Ji Hannan was also happy, basically he was also happy when Ye Suyan was happy.

Besides, he has a deep affection for this movie. After all, it is because of this movie that he noticed Ye Suyan, knew him, and...

The living room was full of laughter for a while.

Ye Suyan took a glass of wine, walked up to Wang Yan, and sincerely congratulated: "Director Wang, congratulations."

Wang Yan clinked glasses with him, and made no secret of his joy: "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts!"

Qin Ya also picked up the wine glass.

The door of the lounge was kept being opened, and many people came in to celebrate with them one after another.

There are brilliant new and old artists, as well as the staff here, and some brilliant high-level executives.

By the time Wei Xuan also opened the door and entered, the atmosphere in the lounge had already reached a peak.

Wei Xuan first paid respects to Wang Yan, Qin Ya and others one by one, and said congratulations.When facing Ye Suyan, he suddenly gave him a big hug. Although it was just a touch of the shoulders and they were separated, but there are many people present, and a small movement and wink can make them smell different.

"Congratulations, Su Yan." After Wei Xuan and Ye Suyan separated, he took the wine glass handed over by the person around him, raised his glass to him, and said with a smile, "I knew you could do it."

Ye Suyan smiled: "It's also thanks to Director Wang, sister Qin Ya, and the help of everyone in the crew. They taught me a lot."

At this time, no one would say anything to spoil the fun, and the entire lounge was full of compliments and congratulations.

Of course, today is not a formal celebration banquet. The formal celebration banquet will be about a week after the movie is released.But everyone still had a good time. Not only did they fully recover the cost on the first day, but they also made a profit of 2000 million. This is a very happy thing for the entire crew and investors.

Just when Huihui and the crew of "Dark War" were happily celebrating the box office success of the movie, He Chengyun was hanging up the phone call to announce the good news to him.

He's is the biggest investor in "Dark War". The more money the movie makes, the happier he should be as the president of He's.

But sitting on the back seat of the car driving steadily towards He's mansion, He Chengyun closed his eyes wearily.

All his impressions of this movie are Ye Suyan sitting on the small stage of the bar full of affection, but full of despair playing the cello.

He also knew that no matter whether Wang Yan's movie made money or not, as long as he wanted to make it, the He family would definitely invest in him, making him happy and free from worries.

Of course, Wang Yan never let them lose money once.

Whether it was before or after he took over the He family, Wang Yan was actually maximizing their return on their investment.

As expected, He Huaizhang hadn't slept yet. He was sitting on the sofa in the living room, and "Dark War" was playing on the big rear-projection TV again.This time, with the addition of a full soundtrack and special effects, it can arouse people's emotions even more.

This time, He Huaizhang did not ignore He Chengyun's arrival. When he came to his side, he pressed the pause button and signaled him to sit down.

He Chengyun didn't sit down immediately, his eyes were already attracted by the still TV screen, the scene happened to be the scene of Ye Suyan rescuing the heroine played by Qin Ya, the two of them embraced and danced together, they looked like a perfect match.

Such a gentleman Ye Suyan...

He Chengyun looked at the gentle smile on his lips, and the alcohol in his body seemed to rush into his mind again, making him a little dazed again.

After a while, he finally came back to his senses, turned his attention to He Huaizhang, and greeted him politely: "Father."

He didn't sit next to his father, and there was never a scene between them in an ordinary family where the father was kind and the son was filial, enjoying the family happiness.

"Just say what you have to say." He Huaizhang also knew his son very well, and he would never take the initiative to go back to the mansion if there was nothing wrong.

Sure enough, He Chengyun was only silent for a few seconds, and then took the initiative to say: "Uncle Wang's movie made a lot of money this time."

He knew that He Huaizhang must have known the news, but he took the initiative to repeat the news again.

As expected, He Huaizhang's calm and calm expression had changed. He was proud and somewhat contradictory. He nodded, put the remote control in his hand aside, and said, "I know, he has never let you down before. .”

"So what about you, father?" He Chengyun asked, "Are you also satisfied with this result?"

He Chengyun never thought that one day he would ask such a question to this father who was never close to him.But he had already asked, and he didn't know if it was because the alcohol in his body hadn't been metabolized, or because of other reasons.In front of this father whom he had always respected, hated and alienated from, it was the first time he asked such a question, which was somewhat private and also somewhat intimate.

"Me?" He Huaizhang leaned on the sofa, smiled a rare self-deprecating smile, and said, "Of course I am satisfied."

"Father." He Chengyun's gaze met his father's gaze, and he expressed his thoughts: "Actually, I have always felt that if Uncle Wang had a film invested by the He family that had a poor box office, or even lost tens of millions, you Might be happier."

He Huaizhang's expression remained unchanged, and he even looked as relaxed as before.He just asked lightly: "Oh?"

He Chengyun didn't answer this question, maybe he didn't want to get an answer from his father at all.He was silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Father, have you ever regretted it?"

"Regret?" He Huaizhang seemed to have heard some funny words, he laughed several times, and then said: "I don't believe in regret." He paused, and then said lightly: "Life is the most bitter, what you can't get and what you have lost , I have it all, and I still say that I regret it or not."

Although his tone was flat, this question still made him lose interest in continuing to chat with his only son, who was also the successor of the He family cultivated under his harsh and indifferent elite education. He stood up from the sofa and said yes He Chengyun said: "I'm going to rest, you can go."

After he finished speaking, he ignored his son, even though he could guess his son's current mood and the conflict in his heart.

But for every gain, you always lose something.

There is no absolute balance between gains and losses, it depends on personal choice.

In the dictionary of the He family, a weak emotion like "regret" is absolutely not allowed to appear.

"Father!" When he stepped on the stairs leading to the second floor, He Chengyun, who was sitting on the sofa with his back to him, suddenly spoke again. He suddenly mentioned the previous question again, as if he must step on his father's sore foot In order to relieve his irritable and painful mood tonight, he even raised his voice a little and continued to his father: "Perhaps you won't believe it. If Uncle Wang's movie really loses money, then you will completely lose all opportunities." when!"

He stood up and turned to look at He Huaizhang who stopped because of his words.His back is still tall and straight, with broad shoulders. Even in middle age, he is still full of masculine charm and fascinates people.

It's just such a person who can clearly see the admiration of himself when he was a child, but he is never willing to give him a little warmth.

He Huaizhang slowly turned around and looked down at his son, as if seeing this man for the first time, and asked coldly, "Do you know what you're talking about?"

He Chengyun's gaze was also very cold, and he just stared at his stern father.He has grown up, and is no longer the boy who followed behind him, desperately trying to make himself better, just longing for his father to give him a smile: "This time I went to H City and met Mrs. Wang." He said slowly, he knew that He Huaizhang knew who Mrs. Wang was, and sure enough, the other party frowned slightly, "She told me that you never actually married her, you just gave birth to me with her."

"Are you going to seek justice for that woman?" He Huaizhang's voice became colder.

"She is very happy now, and her current husband loves her very much, and she doesn't need anyone to seek justice for her." He Chengyun mocked.

"You drank too much." He Huaizhang frowned even tighter, "You actually spoke to your father in such a tone."

"Father? Huh..." He Chengyun did drink a lot, but if it wasn't for the effect of alcohol, he probably wouldn't be able to say these words in front of his father who respects, fears and hates, "I used to think that , It's because I haven't done well enough, that's why you don't love me. You can be right... Su Yan," he hasn't called Ye Suyan by name like this for a long time, and he called Ye Suyan like this without disappointment, hatred and rejection The name made the corners of his lips twitch, and then he continued, "Obviously I can smile at him, care about him, treat him like a father, why can't I treat me like this?"

He Huaizhang's gaze became deep. He looked deeply at his son, who had always been under his control. He only needed to be the successor of the He family, and his son would have such a side.

"What do you want to say?" He asked coldly.

"Father..." He Chengyun persistently called out this title, but his tone became more and more cold, "Actually, from the very beginning, there was a purpose in facing Su Yanhao in front of me, right? It made me hate him , made me always feel that he would betray, made me unable to trust even the closest people, and could only be the heir of the He family who no one loves and will never love anyone!"

"Heh..." He Huaizhang sneered, "Don't you love Chu Chen? Even Su Yan can see clearly, that's why he retreated so resolutely."

He Chengyun's hands were tightly clenched, and his eyes were flushed red.He stared at He Huaizhang who was standing there with a sneer, as if it was not his father but a devil who wanted to eat people.

"...Why?" After a long time, he asked slowly.

"Why?" He Huaizhang repeated these three words playfully, and said with a cold smile: "Because of your appearance, the person I love has refused to say a word to me for 20 years. Tell me, what am I doing for?"

"Heh...hehehehe...hehe..." He Chengyun suddenly lowered his head and laughed out loud when he heard the words, the self-deprecating and sarcastic laugh made He Huaizhang frowned again.

But he just looked at him coldly, and repeated what he had said just now: "You are drunk, go back."

"Do you know why if Uncle Wang fails at the box office, you will lose the only chance to connect with him?" He Chengyun stopped laughing, but looked at his father with contempt, and even sympathized with him. "Because to him, you're just an investor, nothing more," he said.

After he finished speaking, he turned around and strode towards the door, not looking at the expression on He Huaizhang's face anymore.

The heirs cultivated by the He family always have excellent working ability, but they never know how to love someone.

His father was, and so was he.

That time when he met Ye Suyan at the airport, he was afraid of being in the same room with him, but in fact it was just because he didn't want to dream of him again at night.

Every night, Ye Suyan who appeared in his dream would say "I love you" to him affectionately and firmly.

But in the next second, he turned around and left resolutely.

Just like this night, he just looked at him coldly, as if there had never been anything between them, the past.

==================

Ye Suyan was completely red.

"Dark War" was a hit at the box office, and it made headlines on major entertainment websites and newspapers the next day.The name mentioned repeatedly must be Ye Suyan's name.His nimble skills, his sudden transformation from "Prince of Piano" to "Affectionate Tough Guy", his eye-catching cello, and playing opposite Qin Ya, he was not at all overwhelmed by the opponent... Let him play at Christmas Afterwards, it became a new favorite frequently appearing on websites, forums and Weibo.

There are many people who are happy for Ye Suyan, but there are also many people who hate him.But now everyone in Brilliant knows that at the small celebration banquet on the first day of the release of "Dark War", Wei Xuan not only rushed back to participate in the celebration, but also hugged Ye Suyan in public.

No one dared to offend the popular people in Mr. Wei's eyes, unless they didn't want to hang out in this circle anymore.

So Ye Suyan had a very happy time these few days.

Among the people who are happy for him, Xiang Wei is definitely the first one, and Xiang Wei is the most sincere one.

From the second day on, Ye Suyan's film and commercial appointments have not been broken. Xiang Wei answered the phone softly, but the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.

She also knew that Wei Xuan specially paved the way for Ye Suyan, but when she took those scripts and made an appointment to find Ye Suyan, her face was still full of joy.

Ye Suyan listened to Xiang Wei excitedly introducing these things to herself, and said to her with a smile, "Weiwei, you will give me the illusion that I am a new artist who was hidden by the snow."

He felt that his agent was a little too excited. Although Xiang Wei was usually enthusiastic and generous, it was not like this.

"Don't make fun of me!" Xiang Wei was still enthusiastic, but her expression was a little disturbed, but she still showed the last advertisement to Ye Suyan, "Here, He's is in the prosperous area of ​​City A. The newly developed high-end Apartment. Do you... want to pick it up?"
