Relying on love in the entertainment industry

On the reef by the sea, Fang Nan looked at the sea in the east and said to Gallo: "You know? Gallo, I always think that this country is the most beautiful country in the world."

Jia Luo was a little surprised that Fang Nan would say such a sentence suddenly, but he still said: "...I also think she is beautiful."

If there are no mountains and seas of people, garbage everywhere, and aunts and uncles who often start fighting in public places.

Well...the last item is not counted, this kind of thing is actually quite a lot in SN, it can only be regarded as the bad root shared by human beings.

Seeing his agreement, Fang Nan said, "You know, this country has a very long history, and it has given birth to a very extraordinary wisdom...History makes a nation beautiful, and I always feel...I was born in In one of the most beautiful countries."

Gallo said: "I don't know much about the history of CN, but just hearing you say that, I think this must be a very unusual country."

Fang Nan said: "The first emperor of Qin sent Xu Fu out of the East China Sea in pursuit of longevity; Zhang Liang plotted against Liu Bang, Yu Ji died with the overlord... and now they have all died for thousands of years."

Gallo said: "Qin Shihuang is a hero."

Fang Nan said: "Yes, he is a hero. But in the 5000-year history, our country actually has many heroes who have gone abroad. A hero, but no one remembers it long ago."

He sat on the reef with his chin in his hands, and said, "When I was very young, I often wondered how I would die in the end."

Gallo was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "Why do you want this!?"

But Fang Nan looked up, smiled at him, and said, "Because I'm afraid of death."

Gallo said: "If you are afraid of death, you think about death every day... What is this?"

Fang Nan said: "No matter how much I am afraid of death, I will die one day. Everyone will die, you and I are the same, but the difference is that some people die early and some people die later. I just want to Be brave yourself."

Gallo couldn't understand, so he was silent for a while.

Fang Nan also knew that not everyone could understand this matter.

He knows that everyone will die, but his life may be particularly short, and he may not be able to leave anything behind.Fang Nan has been trapped in such fear since he was a child, so he often thinks about life and death.

The time when he was in love with Chu Xiting was the bravest time in his life.At that time, he had enough courage to survive, and he was no longer afraid of death.Because whether he lives or dies, he has got what he wants.

But the fact is not the case.

Fang Nan spread her ten fingers, looked at the sky through the gaps between her fingers, and thought, there are actually only two things in this world that make people fearless - love or hate.

Ideals or beliefs can only generate the same motivation if they are attached to these two emotions. At least for Fang Nan, although he loves music, music is not the motivation for him to resist illness, nor can it give him the motivation to survive. eager.

No matter what kind of art, its motivation is always from emotion, it is attached to people, and it was born to shake the society.Music can make him happy, but it can't make him brave.

When Fang Nan was lying on the reef and thinking like this, Chu Xiting's voice came from behind him, asking, "What are you doing?"

He asked like this, and handed the drink bag in his hand to Gallo.

Gallo replied, "It's a matter of life and death."

Chu Xiting was taken aback for a moment, then asked with a smile: "So deep?"

Asking like this, his eyes turned to Fang Nan.Then he saw the young man lying on the rock, looking up at him, his eyes gave people an illusion, as if full of tenderness and affection, Chu Xiting was completely bewitched for a moment, and almost lost his voice.

Fang Nan looked at him in a daze, then smiled lightly, and said, "It's not very deep, just a moment of emotion. Probably because I'm a person who is particularly afraid of death, so I think more about it."

Chu Xiting said: "...You are still so young, what are you talking about?"

In the end, Fang Nan rolled over and sat up, and replied: "Death has nothing to do with being young or not." Then he turned around and took the milk from Gallo's hand.

Fang Nan usually looks very old-fashioned, but when he is used to drinking milk with his mouth in his mouth, his face shows a bit of childishness.

This way, he looks more like Fang Qingzhi.

But Chu Xiting felt that something was a little different - if it was Fang Qingzhi, he would never talk about the topic of death in such a calm manner, and even had an indescribable rejection of the word "death" itself. and taboo.

On the contrary, although Fang Nan verbally said that he was afraid of death, his expression and attitude were very calm—it was really calm, not an appearance that could be pretended.

If it's Qingzhi - Chu Xiting thought - he really has changed too much.

Probably because he thought the scenery was good, Fang Nan squatted on the beach with his handbag and Gallo all afternoon.Gallo himself had to complete the melody, while Fang Nan was writing lyrics.

On the way, Gallo leaned over to take a look, and found that what he was filling out was still a song praising the motherland... In a sense, Gallo felt that Fang Nan was enough.Why does he want to immigrate if he loves CN so much?

But he had to admit that even such a politically charged song, as long as it was created by Fang Nan, it was still beautiful, no matter the tune or the lyrics.

Although he is not very good at composing in Chinese, at least he has the ability to read and appreciate, so he can somewhat appreciate the artistic conception in the music.

—— Strings of pearls turn into islands/Sounds call to urge the waves/Winds and waves from thousands of years ago beat rocky reefs/Leave a smile from the vicissitudes of life/Only time is not old/Proclaim wisdom...

And when composing music and lyrics, it is generally unavoidable to try humming.Although Fang Nan himself has never released an album, and rarely sing K with others, his singing skills and level are visible to the naked eye.

Jia Luo once felt that if Fang Nan insisted that he was not in good health and could not be a singer, a profession that required high-intensity physical strength, he might have become popular on SN by now.

Even if Fang Nan is a CN person.

Some people's talent and charm are destined to break down cultural barriers.

But unfortunately, Fang Nan is indeed in poor health.Gallo still sees him taking medicine in the morning and evening every day, so he only feels it is a pity.

Chu Xiting also saw Fang Nan taking the medicine when he was at the hotel that night.It's just that Fang Nan didn't take the medicine in front of him. When Chu Xiting went to find him, he found that the other party was putting something similar to medicine in the luggage bag, and there was a water glass beside him, so he paid attention.

The next day, Fang Nan and Jia Luo continued to find work in a place with few people and good scenery. Chu Xiting went back to the hotel halfway to pick up things and bring Chinese food to others.In the end, when he returned to the hotel, he couldn't hold back. He took the key and stole the door of Fang Nan's room, and rummaged through his luggage.

After he checked the medicine bottle turned out carefully, he found that it was aspirin.

This is also a common medicine with a wide range of uses.But Chu Xiting didn't know much about its other uses. There was only one thing that was very clear - aspirin was one of the commonly used drugs after congenital heart disease surgery.

In the end, did Fang Nan have congenital heart disease?

Chu Xiting thought...he should find a chance to test the other party.

Because of this, he found a chance to be alone with Fang Nan that night.

At this time, Gallo was frowning and struggling with the music score again, while Fang Nan squatted on the side of the terrace, staring at the stars in a daze.

The stars here on Wangsha Island are much brighter and clearer than the stars above City A. Although the geographical distance is not very far, the starry sky over the sea looks very different.

Although Fang Nan spent most of his time writing songs and lyrics, he learned about the topography of Wangsha Island through the travel brochure.Wangsha Island has its own fruit forest farm, even if there is no inland resource transportation, it can be self-sufficient for a long time.In addition, the film and television city on the island is also very distinctive and targeted. The east and west sides are sea fortresses with two styles of ancient and modern styles... It can't help but make people have some weird guesses.

When Chu Xiting approached, Fang Nan asked suddenly: "The 'film and television city' here..." He hesitated for a moment, and almost instinctively added the accent to these three words, "Is it open to the outside world?"

Chu Xiting didn't expect Fang Nan to ask this question, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied: "If you don't open it to the outside world, what will you do if you build it?" Then he explained to Fang Nan, "The film and television city is a year-round open to the major domestic film and television companies. Not only that, but also rent out some obsolete military equipment, which can be said to be a very convenient policy for us. However, there are restrictions on tourists, and they are not open for sightseeing at all times.”

Fang Nan blinked after hearing this, and asked, "...is the army on the island participating in military exercises?"

This issue is too sensitive.

Chu Xiting coughed a few times before replying, "This one, probably."

Fang Nan was silent for a moment.

He had some vague thoughts in his mind—at first, he thought it was very strange to set up a film and television city on the artificial island at the border of this territory, but after seeing the planning and design of the island, he had a very bold idea in his mind.

It's just that such an idea, even if you guess it, it's hard to say it clearly.

Then Fang Nan turned around and changed the subject: "Mr. Chu has been here with us for two days, is the matter over there okay?"

Chu Xiting replied: "...It doesn't matter. I don't have anything to deal with recently."

Fang Nan said, "...wouldn't it be boring?"

Chu Xiting: "...No."

Fang Nan said: "But I would feel very embarrassed... After all, a big man like Mr. Chu always feels very busy, but he feels wronged that you have been doing boring things with us..."

Chu Xiting quickly interrupted him with a smile, and said, "Why is it a boring thing? After all, Mr. Fang is also working for Nanjixing. Since it is work, I should accompany him for a while. After all, he has made an excellent album. It is also extremely beneficial to our Nanjixing, and it is a matter of mutual benefit, how can we say that we are wronged."

After Fang Nan heard this, she didn't speak for a while.After a while, he laughed and asked, "...Mr. Chu...is he so considerate and patient with his employees?"

When he asked the question like this, there was a deep smile in his tone, which seemed to be a bit toned down.

But when he asked, there was a vague sense of probing, as if he was forcing Chu Xiting to reveal his true thoughts about himself.

Almost like flirting.

Chu Xiting paused for a long time before saying, "...No, because you are different, Mr. Fang."

Fang Nan was silent for a while after hearing his answer, and then said: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang, it sounds a bit unfamiliar. From now on, Mr. Chu can just call me Fang Nan or Xiao Fang."

That night, when Chu Xiting fell asleep, he sighed and gave up the idea of ​​testing Fang Nan that he had thought about before.

After waking up the next morning, Chu Xiting was still thinking about what to say first after seeing Fang Nan, and what tone to use to speak to Fang Nan, but unexpectedly the phone rang at this moment.

He picked it up casually and glanced at the caller ID, only to realize that it was the investigator he had hired earlier.He picked it up, listened to the other party's report on the latest progress, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "...let's stop here for the entrusted work. I'll call you the balance later, and this work will be over here."

The other party was taken aback for a moment, obviously a little surprised, and then said: "Mr. Chu, I think our investigation has begun to make some progress, and if we follow the current line, we will soon have a conclusion—"

In the end, I heard Chu Xiting say: "I will pay the full amount of the final payment, and there is no need to continue the investigation. I made a mistake. Nolan Fang himself has nothing to do with Fang Qingzhi, so you don't need to waste any more time on it. "

Chu Xiting's conclusion was obviously completely different from their expectations, so after the other party was taken aback for a moment, they suddenly started to argue: "Mr. Chu, I think you may have received some wrong information—"

When Chu Xiting heard this, he sighed and said, "Let Miss Zhanfrey come and talk to me."

The operator had no choice but to transfer the call to another female colleague.

After changing people, Chu Xiting's request was finally fulfilled readily, and after they each clarified their remuneration, the two parties happily hung up the phone.

The previous operator was a little puzzled and asked, "Miss Jeffery, why..."

As a result, Miss Zhanfrey smiled and said to him: "Carol, I think you should learn to look at people's eyes and speak."

Carroll said: "His conclusions run counter to the truth. We don't allow false information."

"We didn't give any false news." Miss Zhanfrey turned around while sitting and said, "We didn't give any news that didn't match the facts, but sometimes guests really don't want to get the truth from us."

"At the end of the day our job is not to seek the truth. There is only one situation in our profession where every truth needs to be known - on a TV show. Other times, learn to stop and keep yourself and both sides on a safe line is very important."

After Chu Xiting hung up the phone, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The next morning they drove the yacht back to City A, and when they were sending Fang Nan home, Chu Xiting tentatively made an appointment for Fang Nan to meet alone next time, but Fang Nan just gave in and agreed with a smile.

Jia Luo looked back and saw the two talking intimately. He just showed a little displeased expression when he saw Fang Nan and Chu Xiting turn their heads after they finished talking, and then turned their backs to Chu Xiting and suddenly suppressed all smiles. , became expressionless in an instant, and that instant change made Gallo swallow all the words that had reached his throat, but he felt a strange chill for a while.

Sitting in the car, Chu Xiting still had a smile on his face. He didn't know anything about Fang Nan's expression after his back was turned to him. The smile even looked a little stupid.But Fang Nan, who was walking straight towards Jia Luo, didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all. When he and Jia Luo took the elevator back to the apartment, he had already returned to his usual appearance, and he gently asked Jia Luo to come with him. Study room test record.

Gallo couldn't get into the state as usual.

The look in Fang Nan's eyes before was really scary, but that wasn't the reason why Jia Luo was frightened.What surprised him was that when Fang Nan faced Chu Xiting at Wangsha Island, he was full of joy and intimacy, which made Gallo unable to help but feel the sour atmosphere, and the fact that Fang Nan faced Chu Xiting with his back. The gloomy expression that quickly changed after the court - the rapid change between the two, and no matter which attitude, it makes people feel very sincere, without the slightest falsehood and pretense.

If it's just an overly realistic acting skill, as far as Gallo knows, Fang Nan has never been a person who is good at disguising and lying.

He really didn't think it was acting.

However, aside from acting skills, what's up with Fang Nan's attitude and personality that seemed to be cut apart at a certain moment?Gallo didn't even dare to think deeply for a moment.

He observed Fang Nan repeatedly, trying to figure out what kind of attitude the other party had towards Chu Xiting, but the more he observed, the more confused he became. In the end, he felt that just looking at the other party would cause him to split his mind.

Sometimes he even had the illusion that what he was facing was not Fang Nan, but three people with completely different personalities. Besides Fang Nan he knew, there seemed to be two other people hidden in the shadow of the other party. He will only appear when the court is present, always with a gentle and harmless expression, and a gentle and soft smile that is easy to believe.The other is a ghost hiding in the shadow of the former. Gallo seldom sees the other party appear, but every time he appears, it makes Gallo feel terrified and feels strange.

This made Gallo anxious.

Obviously, all these changes in Fang Nan were caused by Chu Xiting.

He doesn't like this kind of change, and feels that this kind of change will only hurt Fang Nan, but not beneficial, but Fang Nan has his own ideas, and he will not listen to Gallo's persuasion in this regard, and will never be persuaded by him .

For the first time in his life, Gallo felt clumsy.

After the recording of the album in October is completed, it is time for post-production.Halfway through, Gallo also wanted to shoot the MV, which was a love song "Sleepless Stars Tonight" with a not-so-famous actress from another company.

On the morning of the first day of filming the MV, Fang Nan had been communicating with the MV director, so Gallo didn't care too much, so he went to make up and change clothes to prepare for shooting.

As a result, after the shooting in the morning was over, he couldn't find Fang Nan again.Although the other party didn't say goodbye without saying goodbye, at least sent a text message telling him that he went to have dinner with someone, but Gallo didn't feel happy at all because of such a text message.

He kept calling Fang Nan.After the phone rang for a long time, Fang Nan finally picked it up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Gallo lied to him and said: "Something went wrong with the filming of the MV, where are you now? Can you come back?"

Fang Nan listened, but said "wait a minute", and then hung up the phone.Gallo waited for a while with his mobile phone, and Fang Nan's number reappeared in his caller list.

Jia Luo picked it up, and Fang Nan said, "The director said that the filming went well... what do you mean by something went wrong?"

Jia Luo was exposed by Fang Nan's lies, and suddenly became irritable and unreasonable, and finally hung up Fang Nan's call on his own initiative.

On the opposite side, Chu Xiting asked Fang Nan: "What's wrong?"

Fang Nan shook his head and replied with a smile, "It's nothing."

Fang Nan should have breathed a sigh of relief that Gallo stopped making trouble.But in fact, he didn't feel relaxed and happy. Instead, he felt somewhat guilty—he didn't know where the guilt came from. After struggling for a while, he decided to buy some delicious snacks when he went back. Coax Gallo.

But that's for later.

Seeing that Fang Nan didn't speak, Chu Xiting took the initiative to find a topic, and said, "Fang Nan, your appetite is really small... mental work consumes a lot of energy, you should eat more."

Fang Nan said: "Mr. Chu, you're welcome, I just don't have much appetite... Probably the seasickness effect has not passed, so I can't cheer up."

After hearing this, Chu Xiting paused for a while, as if he was considering his words, and then said: "Since I have already called you by my name, Fang Nan, you don't have to call me by my name directly, or Just call Big Brother Chu."

Fang Nan had never called Chu Xiting by his first name directly, but Big Brother Chu was the standard address when Fang Qingzhi used to be.

After a pause, he laughed and said, "Then I'm not going to be polite, and I'll just call Mr. Chu by your name——Xiting."

This address can be said to be unfamiliar, but it seems somewhat intimate.When Fang Nan called out with a smile, Chu Xiting's expression was in a daze involuntarily, and he replied: "Qing...Fang Nan."

Fang Nan's eyes flickered, and after a while, they slowly bent into two crescent moons, so sweet that people felt that they were about to lose the ability to think.

The author has something to say: I cut off the plot about Cai Xinshen.Originally, a lot of characters and plot extensions were needed if the plot was followed, but because I tried to compress the full text to a little more than 20 words, I cut off a lot of plots.
