The Emperor's Entertainment Journey [Rebirth]

Lu Mingwei was walking in the courtyard of his home, holding a birdcage in his hand, which contained a lively brown thrush.

"Grandpa, your thrush is getting longer and smarter like you are." Lu Jingcheng was wearing a casual white-gray v-neck shirt and black cotton pants.He had just finished jogging in the morning, and there were still traces of sweat on his handsome side face, which was shining in the morning light, and his fine, soft black hair clung to his ears obediently.On weekdays, Young Master Lu is elegant and calm. Even if he doesn't deliberately show off in every move, he still brings out a natural nobility in his behavior. Such a comfortable and natural style is rare now.

Since the business of the Lu family was handed over to Lu Zhijie and Lu Ting'an, Mr. Lu seldom manages the business of the Lu family. He spends his days leisurely, drinking tea and playing with birds, and the sharp majesty accumulated over the years is also quite peaceful.Of course, ignoring the affairs of the Lu family does not mean that Lu Mingwei's authority is absent.

Although Lu Mingwei's temples are turning white, he doesn't look old. After listening to Lu Jingcheng's joke, his eyes widened brightly: "Who bought this thrush back then, now it looks like whoever it is." The thrush sang in a very appropriate way It seemed to agree with Lu Mingwei's words.

Lu Jingcheng showed a bright smile: "I'm only in charge of buying it, and you are the one who raised it. Grandpa, you don't have to push the credit to me." Occasionally, the grandpa and grandson joked, but Lu Jingcheng still enjoyed this kind of getting along very much. He did not enjoy the care of his elders in his first life, and this life is regarded as making up for the regrets of his previous life.

He looked at Lu Jingcheng in front of him, and there seemed to be a gleam of brilliance in his eyes hidden in the vicissitudes of life: "Jingcheng, your personality is very similar to your father." The older people are, the more they miss the past. Lu Jingcheng's father also It is Lu Mingwei's youngest son, Lu Zhiyou, who is very intelligent and meticulous, and has an unusually stubborn personality...

This was the first time that Lu Mingwei talked about his parents in front of him since he woke up. He didn't dare to mention it easily, probably because he was afraid that he would be sad. After all, his parents traveled with him and caused the accident.Lu Jingcheng's expression darkened, he could recall many things but he couldn't remember the most important memory no matter what!

He hid his frustration and guilt very well, not wanting to be discovered by Mr. Lu, and replied with a smile: "I look like my mother, and my character is like my father. Outsiders praise the good genes of the Lu family."

Lu Jingcheng suddenly remembered something that needs to be verified. He just said, "Grandpa, does Zheng Kaibo have a good relationship with the Lu family? By the way, there is also Wei Ziren..." Before he could finish speaking, he was caught by a hurried voice. The bell interrupted.

"Young Master Lu, something happened now, and I want to discuss it with you." He Yuhang's tone was not urgent, and it seemed that it was not urgent.

"Jing Cheng, go get busy, I, the old man, continue to relax here." Lu Mingwei waved his hand indifferently, signaling him to hurry up and get busy with his own affairs.

Lu Jingcheng was urged by the other party, but he turned and left helplessly. He was too focused on the conversation with He Yuhang, so he failed to notice Lu Mingwei's surprise and panic when he heard his last question.

Lu Mingwei watched his grandson's figure drifting away. For the first time, the eyes of the fifty-year-old man showed confusion and tiredness, and he sighed at the thrush that was jumping up and down: "There are some things, should this kid Jing Cheng Know?" The deep lines on his brows haven't been relaxed for a long time.

"You mean someone recommended himself to get the chance to audition for "Homecoming"?" Lu Jingcheng was a little surprised. Such a person was either trying his best to give it a go or he was conceited and ignorant.

"Brother Yu, you and other managers should check each other's strength first, and I'll go over later." To be honest, Young Master Lu is still interested in this self-recommended actor, and he wants to know what kind of person the other party is to have such a great talent. courage.

He Chenhui sat quietly on the sofa with his body tensed. The female employee brought him a cup of tea, and he took it with his slender hands and politely said "thank you".

He Yuhang quietly observed the man in front of him on the other side. He Chenhui's appearance was not perfect, and he was already in his 30s. In the era of handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, he could even be said to be "average".Fortunately, his facial features are combined together, and it looks plain but also has a unique charm. It is obvious that the other party is sitting quietly on the side, reticent, but the edges and corners are particularly sharp and it looks like it is full of fierceness.

After Baiyu's "Replay of the Song Dynasty" became popular, some artists joined Baiyu during that period, and He Chenhui was one of the group of people who took the initiative to join Baiyu.However, there were a lot of artists at that time, and most of the artists were assigned to other managers of Baiyu, and those who could be selected by He Yuhang were all artists with excellent qualifications.After all, Baiyu provides more opportunities for popular actors, and there are opportunities for second- and third-tier stars, and they are actively expanding the channels for appearances, but overall it is still not enough.Thinking of this, He Yuhang's round and smooth forehead wrinkled. He wanted to find a suitable time to make some changes to this shortcoming.

When Lu Jingcheng arrived, he noticed He Chenhui at the first sight. The other party gave him an aura of breaking the boat, but he was stubborn and refused to turn around.

He Yuhang looked at Young Master Lu, and Lu Jingcheng nodded to him. He Chenhui keenly noticed the movement of the visitor, and raised his eyes to find Lu Jingcheng's appearance. He knew Young Master Lu's identity, but he was a little surprised to see him here.Although he didn't quite understand the reason for Lu Jingcheng's visit, he still looked at Lu Shao politely and smiled.

Lu Jingcheng randomly found an inconspicuous place to sit down, and nodded slightly to indicate that He Yuhang could continue to ask He Chenhui some questions. After receiving the instructions from Young Master Lu, He Yuhang cleared his throat and asked bluntly and sharply: "It must be Mr. He knows that the opportunity to audition for "Homecoming" is very rare, what ability do you think you have to let us choose you?" After all, He Chenhui is not famous, and He Yuhang has not even seen the play played by the other party.

"The characters in it gave me a strong attraction. If I didn't have this desire, I think I would have kept quiet and waited for the opportunity, instead of directly recommending myself in front of Director He. I knew that I was just a clueless person. Being a well-known actor does not mean that my acting skills are not good enough."

He Yuhang put on a straight face, more serious than ever: "Even if I promised you a chance, why would the crew of "Homecoming" waste their time on a completely unknown actor?"

"I can't guarantee anything, but I know that I have to have a chance first. If there is a chance, there will always be various possibilities. "Homecoming" is a work that Director Li has been preparing for a long time. I think Director Li is willing to spend more patience. I'm choosing a role actor." He Chenhui described calmly, if he didn't even have the chance to start, then what's the point.He took the initiative to attack just to get a chance.

Lu Jingcheng has been watching He Chenhui's actions from the sidelines. The sharp edges and corners of the other party seem to be very calm, but his shaking hands from time to time and slightly stiff movements show that there is actually a sense of tension in his heart.

He Chenhui raised his eyes, and said in a very serious tone: "I can make a bigger step back, as long as Director He gives me a chance to try, no matter whether I succeed or not, [-]% of my income from now on will belong to Baiyu, I just need to [-]%." His serious tone made He Yuhang involuntarily look at each other a few times.

At this time, Young Master Lu knew that this person was giving it a go.There are some actors who have struggled for more than ten years. They have the strength and can endure hardships, but they just lack an opportunity to turn the supposedly bright and gorgeous pearl into an inconspicuous black stone.

"Guan Yuyun can bring He Chenhui with him on the day of the audition. As for whether he has the chance to audition, it depends on his own luck." Lu Jingcheng turned his back to He Chenhui, and softly explained his point of view to He Yuhang.

Young Master Lu can't promise everything, what he can do is to give others a chance.What's more, he has a good impression of He Chenhui, and he deserves a chance to try.

On the day of the second audition, Lu Jingcheng went directly with Zhou Yuan and the others.

When Lu Jingcheng walked into the venue, he found Zheng Kaibo. Today he was wearing a dark blue suit with dark patterns. He was gentlemanly and steady. Zheng Kaibo's face was smooth and fair, with soft lines on the side of his face. He didn't look like a man in his 40s at all. Look young.He was talking with the assistant beside him, and there was no unnecessary expression on his face. This was one of the few times Lu Jingcheng could see the other party's stern face. Normally, Zheng Kaibo always smiled elegantly with a sense of alienation.

Zheng Kaibo paid a little attention to his surroundings and saw Lu Jingcheng's arrival. Lu Jingcheng thought about it for a while, then took the initiative to walk forward, and naturally greeted Zheng Kaibo with respect: "Uncle Zheng, I didn't expect to see you here."

The other party was also out of sight, and the sharp blade-like sharpness was already hidden under the gold-rimmed glasses, and when he really faced Lu Jingcheng, he had the friendly look of an elder, and his thin lips curled up: "So it's Jing Cheng, don't you? Interested in director Ming Zheng's play, plan to start investing?" Zheng Kaibo intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the people around Lu Jingcheng, and smiled politely back.Except for Zhou Yuan, everyone present was surprised by Zheng Kaibo's gentleness.

"Uncle Zheng, even if I wanted to invest in "Homecoming", I probably won't be able to do so. Director Li's drama is too popular, and the people who want to invest are probably lined up from the south of the city to the north of the city. I don't have my share. I'm here today to celebrate my friends." The venue." Lu Jingcheng simply explained the purpose of coming, he didn't know how much Zheng Kaibo would believe.

"If you have money to make money, the production team will not be too much. If Jing Cheng wants to invest, he will start boldly." Zheng Kaibo stretched out his hand to support the lower eye frame, and said very humorously.

The appearance of Li Mingzheng interrupted Lu Jingcheng's reply. Li Mingzheng's square face was full of smiles. He walked to Zheng Kaibo's side and said with joy and excitement: "Kaibo, I haven't seen you for many years, why am I getting more and more serious?" The older you get, the younger you become!"

"Director Li Da is busy. If I want to ask you out, I have to wait in line for several years." Judging from the conversation and relationship between Zheng Kaibo and Li Mingzheng, the relationship between the two seems to be good.

"You still like to confuse right and wrong as always. Zheng Daqi said that I invited you out for a gathering years ago. How did you reply to me?" Li Mingzheng's eyes widened.He asked Zheng Kaibo to give him some advice when he was choosing actors.And Zheng Kaibo approached him because he also wanted to invest in the crew of "Return".

At this time, He Yuhang and his group had already gone behind the scenes to make preparations, and it was not appropriate for them to stay any longer.Lu Jingcheng planned to talk to Zheng Kaibo and sit in the auditorium to wait for the performance.

At this time, Li Mingzheng finally had time to ask the people standing aside. He looked at Zheng Kaibo: "Kaibo, what is this?" Li Mingzheng had spent more time abroad than in China these years, and he didn't know much about the situation in City A.

"This is my nephew, Jing Cheng, he will sit with us later. Didn't you say something important to discuss investment with Ming Zheng? Director Li Da wants to save me." Zheng Kaibo did not hesitate at all when introducing Lu Jingcheng. He was leading him the way, which puzzled Lu Jingcheng.

Now that the other party has paved the way, Lu Jingcheng will naturally not waste the great opportunity. He has a suitable attitude, neither too eager nor arrogant, and calmly and politely said: "Hi Director Li, Uncle Zheng just joked, I really want to invest in "" "The Journey Home", but I probably don't have much money to invest."

Lu Jingcheng's handsome and delicate appearance, and his gentle and modest smile made people feel comfortable.Li Mingzheng's first impression of him was good, not to mention that Zheng Kaibo obviously admired and loved Lu Jingcheng, and intended to recommend him to him. Although the other party could not really be Zheng Kaibo's nephew, Li Mingzheng would still pay a little attention to Lu Jingcheng for Zheng Kaibo's sake.

Lu Jingcheng and Zheng Kaibo sat together, he listened quietly to the conversation between the two of them, he would not rush into the conversation between the two, as if he was in a hurry to show that he wanted to win the limelight; when some topics involved himself or Zheng Kaibo deliberately guided Only on himself, Lu Jingcheng would express his own point of view.Li Mingzheng's impression of him is getting better and better.

They didn't stop talking until the audition officially started. Both Li Mingzheng and Zheng Kaibo paid close attention to the performance on stage.This audition was not limited to Guan Yuyun and Li Suqing, there were other actors competing for the role.

The first audition was Zhou Yuan, and Lu Jingcheng focused his eyes.

Li Mingzheng flipped through the information in his hand, and said strangely: "It seems that this actor is not on the list..."

Zheng Kaibo said to Lu Jingcheng, "Jingcheng, that's your friend Zhou Yuan, he's a very good young man." He always helped Lu Jingcheng intentionally or unintentionally.

"I'm here today with Zhou Yuan. Director Li wasn't present at the previous audition. He wants to challenge his favorite role again." Lu Jingcheng's eyes flashed imperceptible thoughts, Zheng Kaibo always helped him out, he didn't understand the other party's intentions.

Li Mingzheng's square face didn't show any displeasure, he didn't care about such a small matter, and it was very difficult for Zheng Kaibo to praise others, so the people who could get his praise must be the same.

"Which role do you want to try?" It's hard for other judges to see such a handsome and handsome actor, and it's because of his too dazzling appearance that the judges feel very suspenseful, because the male characters in "Homecoming" don't need to be too beautiful appearance.

"Anecdotes from my youth." Zhou Yuan replied generously.

Surprise appeared on Li Mingzheng's serious face. The role of Yu Wen was not very competitive when he was young, because he didn't have many roles.

Before the official start, Zhou Yuan has already entered the play.His eyes became red, with panic and anger: "It's not me! It's not me! I didn't kill someone! How could I kill someone!" He struggled desperately, his hands crossed his chest, his whole body was trembling, and his face was pale.

But no one believed him, they sent Yu Wen into the prison car, and Yu Wen slammed on the door of the car inside, his voice was hoarse: "I really didn't do anything against the law... I didn't!" He shouted Dao couldn't make a sound, his confused and young face changed from unruly at the beginning to gray and frustrated.

Suddenly thought of something, he jumped up suddenly, his eyes were red as if they were about to ooze blood: "I didn't kill the man! Why don't you believe me!" Zhou Yuan's roar penetrated the eardrums of the people present, and they stared at him closely. Looking at Zhou Yuan, the anger in his eyes gradually extinguished, and then he became confused and panicked, until finally he buried his head in his knees little by little, and a sense of despair and emptiness instantly drowned out the remaining information.Everyone present could feel his desperation and loneliness. Hope was like firewood fading away.

Li Mingzheng stared at Zhou Yuan's performance intently. The other party played the scene of Yu Wen being framed and imprisoned when he was young. Yu Wen had the vigor and energy that young people should have when he was young. No one would believe it until he was framed and imprisoned. He, his youth and enthusiasm were obliterated bit by bit.

After the scene was over, everyone remained silent, as if infected by Zhou Yuan's despair.Zheng Kaibo admired the first applause, and the people present gradually came to their senses and applauded like a wave.

"How? Not bad..." Zheng Kaibo seemed to be showing off to Li Mingzheng.

Li Mingzheng nodded in satisfaction, and after nodding to him, he said to Lu Jingcheng: "Jing Cheng, your friend is good at acting, young and promising! But he is too pretty, I'm afraid he will overwhelm others by then limelight."

Seeing his own actors being recognized, Lu Jingcheng was also happy and satisfied in his heart, and the corners of his slender eyes revealed a pleasant style. This was just the beginning, and he looked forward to the exciting things to come.

The auditions of the others were all good, but after Zhou Yuan's extraordinary audition, they seemed a little dull.

There was a commotion at the door, Lu Jingcheng looked back and saw that many people surrounded the elegant woman in the long white dress.This kind of ostentation must be Li Suqing.

The audition on Lu Jingcheng's side gradually reached a fever pitch, while that on Wei Jianing's side dropped to freezing point.

"You mean to ask me to transfer all Huaxing's power to Wei Jiaze!" Wei Jianing gritted his teeth with green eyes, and asked his father who sat in front of him with a calm and indifferent face. He even forgot his honorific title The other party called father.

Wei Ziren raised his eyelids, and persuaded him earnestly: "It's the first time your elder brother has made such a request in so many years. Jianing, Huaxing is just an entertainment company with little prospect of development. I'll arrange for you to come to Wei's house Headquarters executives..."

Wei Jianing forcibly suppressed his anger, his voice hoarse: "Father, is it useless for me to say anything?" Wei Ziren's eyes were oppressive, noncommittal.

He couldn't get an answer, so he laughed wildly: "Father, you obviously hate and even resent that crippled Wei Jiaze, but you still want to watch him crawl on your head, isn't it uncomfortable..."

……

"Wei Jiaze, why do you insist on forcing me?" Wei Jianing looked into the phone with a gloomy expression on his face.

A suppressed chuckle came from the other side, and Wei Jiaze's voice was a little distant: "Forcing you? I'm just taking back what belongs to me."
