Rebirth of the fallen painter

The phone was finally hung up.The next day, Wei Zicheng went to Wang An.Wang An is about 40 years old, he has a gentle temperament, and his demeanor is naturally elegant.Walking on the street, he doesn't look like an unconventional and ostentatious film director, but has the temperament of a university professor.When Wei Zicheng found him, he was in a street cafe, using a laptop to revise the script of his next movie.

Wei Zicheng sat down next to him, "Why are you writing a script here? Wouldn't such a lively place distract you?"

Wang An smiled and said, "No. This place will make me concentrate instead. By the way, I sent someone to send the first draft of the script to you yesterday. Have you read it and what do you think? If you think it is not good, we will Modifications can also be discussed.”

Wei Zicheng nodded, "Just reading the script is already thrilling. I haven't seen a script with such a feeling for a long time."

"So, are you willing to act in this movie?" Wang An said with a smile, "Actually, when the script came out, the first actor I thought of was you. So in fact, you came to act in this movie. It couldn't be better."

Wei Zicheng was silent, just moving the coffee cup in his hand.

"Of course, the remuneration may not be too much. But if you have a request, I will try my best to negotiate with the investor."

Wei Zicheng smiled and said, "Director Wang, you still say such things. Everyone knows that after your film is shot, commercials will fly in like snowflakes. Even if you are paid for nothing, there are countless people who want to shoot you What's more, the salary you gave me is not low at all."

Wang An chuckled, "It's just that with your current fame, you don't need to increase your popularity and film appointments. More importantly, the leading actor in this film is very similar to your temperament, appearance and acting style." Cooperate. You are the best candidate."

Wei Zicheng suddenly said, "Director Wang, don't you remember the advice I gave you last time?"

"You mean to use that rookie named Ren Xi as the leading actor?"

"Correct."

"If you weren't so serious, I really thought you were joking with me. I began to wonder if there was something in that script that stimulated you and made you dissatisfied with me."

"Director Wang, I'm serious. He really has potential. Believe me, he will be very suitable for this movie."

Wang An looked at him, "If you don't want to act, you don't need to reject me in this way."

"Director Wang, I don't mean any offense. I like this movie very much. And I also think he is very suitable for this movie. That's why I recommend him to you."

Wang An frowned, "You know I've always been very stubborn in choosing actors. I don't use unfamiliar actors, nor do I use actors who don't suit the character's personality. This is my principle, and it hasn't changed over the years. Just For example, I chose you as the leading actor, because I am very familiar with your temperament, appearance and performance, and you are also very suitable for this role, so I came to you. You want me to use an actor I don’t know at all as the leading actor, It made it difficult for me.”

"Then besides the male lead, there must be other roles suitable for him. As for the unfamiliarity, I just let him meet you. If you are willing to let him play a role in the film, I am willing to perform without pay. Or let someone else You can also play the leading role.”

"You should have read the script, too. I have preliminarily decided on the candidates for the above roles. This is after some consideration on my part. Every role has been filled by an actor."

"Director Wang, the reason why you are so stubborn is that you are prejudiced against someone you haven't met. As soon as you meet him, you know that he will make a good movie. The reason why he is not famous is just that Bad luck. All he needs is a chance."

Wang An was stunned, and then smiled, "I just realized what it means to be in the eye of a true lover."

Wei Zicheng smiled and said, "Director Wang, you really should take a serious look at him."

Wang An chuckled, "Okay. I'll just see who it is, who can be praised as a god by you."

Wei Zicheng's eyes lit up, "So, you have already agreed."

"If he is as good as you say, I will naturally adopt this kind of actor. But, is he really so good?"

Wei Zicheng raised his eyebrows, "Of course."

Wang An had no choice but to say, "Forget it, we'll talk about it after meeting him. However, I still hope that you will play the male lead. After all, you are the more suitable person in all aspects. If you don't act, I really feel very sorry."

"Director Wang, I believe you know what I mean."

"It's clear. Isn't it because Ren Xi must play the role, so you will play the role. In this way, I really should meet this Ren Xi."

The pace of autumn is approaching a little bit.The temperature dropped little by little.Ren Xi would visit Deng Weiqi every two days.She has recovered a lot these days.In the past, when she was ill, she could always hold a pillow and mutter to herself all day without any reaction to the outside world.But now she also started to ask Deng Weiting to buy a lot of delicious and fun things, and when the things were sent to the hospital, she guarded carefully beside the gift mountain, and when Ren Xi came, she stuffed all these into Ren Xi's arms, and waited helplessly for Ren Xi to eat Light hill-like snacks.After that day, Ren Xi rarely met Deng Weiting.Almost always after Ren Xi left, Deng Weiting came over.Just once again, when Ren Xi was playing with Deng Weiqi in the ward, he suddenly looked up and saw Deng Weiting standing in the garden of the nursing home, looking at this side.At that time, there were scattered raindrops falling, and passers-by hid in the room, only he stood there, as if he didn't notice the rain.

Just that once, and it never happened again.After that, Deng Weiting only appeared as a brother who dotes on his younger sister and a senior executive of an entertainment company.

Ren Xi frequently talked on the phone with Wei Zicheng, talking on the phone for two or three hours almost every day.In the end, the phone that was attached to the ear started to get hot.He really suspected that the phone was going to explode, but neither of them wanted to hang up.It's just that the director often snatches Wei Zicheng's phone and yells, and then drags Wei Zicheng over to film.

One morning, Wei Zicheng called and said, "I'm going back to China this afternoon."

Ren Xi said, "But isn't the filming over yet?"

"Just go back for two days. Come back later."

"Then I'll pick you up at the airport."

"No, you go to Honglin Cafe and wait for me, and I will take you to meet someone."

"Who?"

"You will know when the time comes." Wei Zicheng chuckled, "When we meet, I will definitely show you a French kiss. I have learned and observed it."

Ren Xi blushed and said angrily, "You can't learn something else in France."

Wei Zicheng said with a smile, "This is the essence of Paris. Walking along the road, you can meet a few couples performing live. It's a pity that you are not here, otherwise I can practice on the spot."

Ren Xi snorted, "Practice with yourself."

Ren Xi went to the cafe in the afternoon.

Ren Xi was sitting in the cafe, checking the time on his phone from time to time, and it was almost the appointed time.He was afraid of missing the appointment, so he arrived here early.

He kept looking out the window, but suddenly a person sat opposite him.The man was about 40 years old, with a sharp and sinister light in his eyes, although he still had the same handsome and extraordinary face as when he was young, but his handsomeness was greatly compromised by the passage of time.Ren Xi had seen that dress before.A few days ago, when Wei Zicheng went to a fashion exhibition, he used his mobile phone to send back the men's clothing show on the catwalk.One of the sets was worn on the middle-aged man opposite.

Ren Xizheng felt that this person looked familiar, so that person took the initiative to smile and said, "Ren Xi, do you still remember me?"

Ren Xi was still searching for this person's name in his mind.Although the middle-aged man looked handsome, he instinctively disliked him.

The man said, "I really forgot, the last film awards ceremony, you and Wei Zicheng went to the awards ceremony together, and I happened to be sitting next to you."

Ren Xi hesitated for a while before saying calmly, "It's you, Lu Guan, President Lu."

Lu Guan is the president of Huayi Entertainment.Today, Huayi Entertainment and Deng Weiting's Starlight Entertainment are two high mountains standing side by side in the Chinese entertainment circle.Only last time, Ren Xi hated Lu Guan extremely.Seeing this person at this moment, he only spoke to Lu Guan with a feigned calmness according to the impatience in his heart, "Mr. Lu, are you waiting for someone here?"

Lu Guan smiled brightly, "I was bored at first, so I planned to come here to drink coffee to pass the time. I didn't expect to meet Ren Xi just in time. This is just right, and the two can get together."

This man was going to have a long talk.Impatient, Ren Xi checked the time on his phone again, hoping that Wei Zicheng would come over soon.But there was still a rush of people outside the window, and there was no sign of Wei Zicheng.Ren Xi only said with a hypocritical smile, "It's just that I have to talk to someone later, so I may not be able to have a long chat with you, Mr. Lu."

"Huh, is that so?" Lu Guan narrowed his eyes, "It's just that I think, Ren Xi, you seem to hate my existence very much."

"Mr. Lu was joking."

"Actually, Ren Xi, you think so, and I can understand it. What I did last time may have really offended you. It was my impulse. But you believe me, I am sincerely making friends with Ren Xi. "

Ren Xi half smiled, "It's really an honor for me to be friends with Mr. Lu." He turned his eyes to the window again, looking for the figure of Wei Zicheng.

Lu Guan didn't seem to notice Ren Xi's impatience, and smiled, "Look at you, you still call me Mr. Lu, why don't you call me Lu Guan, or you can call me Big Brother Lu Guan."

Ren Xi only felt that he swallowed a fly abruptly.

Lu Guan smiled without realizing it, "It is normal for me to be so much older than you, so it is natural for me to be your big brother."

Ren Xi couldn't sit still any longer and stood up abruptly, "Sorry, I'll go over and make a phone call."

Lu Guan smiled and nodded.

Ren Xi walked out of the coffee shop and dialed Wei Zicheng's cell phone.A mechanical answer came from the receiver, "Hello, the number you dialed is not in the service area."

Are you still on the plane?But Wei Zicheng clearly said that they met in a coffee shop at this point.It is impossible for Wei Zicheng to lie to him.Could it be that the plane was delayed, or was something delayed on the way.

Now it's only 10 minutes past the scheduled time.Maybe there is a traffic jam on the road.He still waited another half an hour in the coffee shop, Wei Zicheng should come over in a while.

He had to go back to his seat and deal with Lu Guan.

Lu Guan raised his head and smiled, "Did you finish the phone call?"

Ren Xi answered absently.Feeling irritable when he saw Lu Guan, he picked up the coffee and drank a couple of sips.

Lu Guan smiled and said, "It's for Wei Zicheng."

Ren Xi glanced at Lu Guan, "Yes." He was wary of what Lu Guan was about to say, but Lu Guan just smiled strangely.After a while of silence, Lu Guan drank his coffee slowly.

Lu Guan asked, "How are you doing in Starlight? If Deng Weiting insists on hiding you, why not come to my side."

This person suddenly became so refined and gentle, and if it was Brother Lu Guan who wanted to praise him, he had some shady intentions in his heart.Someone once said that this person lured artists from rival companies to join his company, but in the end, none of those seduced ended well.Ren Xi said lightly, "No need. I'm fine now."

Lu Guan narrowed his eyes, "You don't believe me?"

Ren Xi said lightly, "That's not the case, it's just that my condition is very good now. I don't think there is any need to change. Probably because I don't want to make progress."

Lu Guan suddenly smiled.The smile looked obscene on his face.

Ren Xi looked at him coldly and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Lu Guan suddenly asked, "Is the coffee good?"

Ren Xi glanced at the brown-black liquid, his whole body turned cold, "Have you taken the medicine?" After speaking, he realized that his voice was almost a whisper.

Lu Guan smiled and said, "You are really sharp. Indeed, I advised you to join my company because I was not optimistic about your potential. In my eyes, you are just a vase without any potential." His eyes were full of lust color, "However, vases are also as good as vases."

Ren Xi's eyes were cold.

Lu Guan's gaze lingered on Ren Xi, "You know, vases are very attractive on the bed."

Ren Xi suddenly wanted to stand up, but found that his whole body was limp and weak.Suddenly, he didn't even have the strength to stand up, instead he could only look at Lu Guan panting.

Lu Guan smiled obscenely, "You know, from the beginning to the end, I just wanted to strip you naked, rape you with rough movements, and watch you cry and beg for mercy."

Ren Xi felt sick for a while, "You pervert." What he said with all his strength was just like a whisper.The sense of powerlessness made him panic, and he panted on the table, "What are you going to do?"

"Why are you so nervous." Lu Guan smiled, "Besides, I think you are more suitable as a pet than a star."

Ren Xi glanced at the cup of brown-black liquid, feeling cold all over his body.His voice was hoarse, "If you dare to touch me with a finger, I won't let you go."

Lu Guan smiled softly.He sat down and put his arms around Ren Xi's waist.From outsiders, he looks like an elder who cares about young people.It was just his hand, stroking Ren Xi's private place.He whispered in Ren Xi's ear, "Don't worry, I will make you very comfortable."

"roll……"

"Don't make trouble, wait until I take you to another place to make out."

That hand seemed to exude a foul stench.Ren Xi tried his best, but only felt that the strength dissipated from his body.He became more and more exhausted until his consciousness completely fell into darkness.
