Tianshui District and Xinghe District are the most densely populated places for actors in City B, but the two places are different——

Xinghe District was a well-known wealthy area a hundred years ago. It is a long-flowing river that runs through the map of Xinghe District from west to east.

Some historians have analyzed the origin of this rich area: water resources are relatively scarce in City B, an inland city. In the past, there was no tap water to use, and the rich families built their mansions along the river to facilitate production and living.At that time, inland shipping was also more important, coupled with the pursuit of scenery, so most of the rich gathered here.

Unlike Tianshui District, where young actors from outside the third and fourth tiers gather, Xinghe District is mostly populated by celebrities and superstars.

When the actor Zhong Yicheng is not filming, he mostly lives here.

Zhong Yicheng, 30 years old, was born in a major, has superb acting skills, and has worked steadily all the way. Before the age of 25, he won various domestic film and television awards.

Later, because of being slandered and slandered, he was attacked by the whole network on a large scale, and he was dormant for half a year before he came forward to clarify with evidence.

A year later, at the age of 26, he and the well-known director Liu Zhongnian rushed into the main competition unit of the Berlin International Film Festival with their carefully crafted work "Evil Monk", and successfully won the Best Film and Best Leading Actor awards. title, took home a golden bear and a silver bear.

Since that large-scale hack, he has changed his usual high-profile style and completely kept a low profile. He only accepts one movie a year, and does not accept interviews except for movie promotion. Weibo is also run by a team.

Even if he is not active in business, with his admirable acting skills and good looks, he has become a legend at a young age, harvesting generations of fans.

Two days ago, in order to prepare for the company, Zhong Yicheng, who had postponed his work arrangement for a year, was sweating profusely in the gymnasium on the basement floor, when his former assistant Zhou Song suddenly called.

Zhou Song was his assistant when he first debuted. After accumulating a few years of experience, he switched careers and became an agent. Now he brings artists by himself.

"Brother Zhong, can you do me a favor?" On the other end of the phone, Zhou Song asked agitatedly.

After Zhong Yicheng tried his best to calm the fluctuating breathing after exercising, he said, "Well, tell me."

"There's a variety show...for public welfare, with a good theme and concept, caring for left-behind children, and a good format, so I accepted this show.

But because the filming location was in a mountainous area, the artist I brought was a girl who suddenly fell ill due to acclimatization.The subsequent filming can't be carried out, neither the program crew nor I can find an artist who is willing to come with a schedule..."

"So, you want me to help you take over this variety show?" Before Zhou Song could ask, Zhong Yicheng spoke out for him.

Zhou Song begged, "Brother Zhong, I really can't find anyone..."

"This kind of unexpected situation is force majeure, and the program team should find a guest to replace it. How can you help me?"

Zhong Yicheng, who had just finished strenuous activities, was thinking quickly, and he immediately understood that this was definitely not Zhou Song's intention.

He threw away the drawer dumbbell in his hand, and pulled the towel to wipe off the sweat from his body.During the movement, the shark line on the side is clearly visible.

Usually, Zhou Song and him have a good relationship, but after all, it used to be the relationship between the boss and the employees. He would not speak rashly about work matters, and besides, he was blocked by his agent Lu Qi, so it was impossible to get around this matter. Pass Lu Qi.

Unless, Lu Qi instructed Zhou Song to call herself and begged him to help with a bitter trick.

Zhou Song on the other end is still hesitating to find a reason.

"Sister Qi's meaning?" Zhong Yicheng didn't beat around the bush at all, and killed with a straight ball.

"Ah..." Zhou Song on the other end of the phone sighed in frustration, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, but Sister Qi insisted on asking me to ask you for help." Now that Zhong Yicheng guessed it, Zhou Song no longer Beat around the bush, "Sister Qi said, the intention of this variety show is good. You haven't arranged any arrangements for this year, and it's not too much to promote public welfare. The environment there is also good, so it's a vacation. Of course, the most important thing is to help Do me a favor!"

"I see."

Zhong Yicheng didn't agree exactly, and Zhou Song wasn't sure what he meant, so he could only relay the conversation to Lu Qi.

After Zhong Yicheng hung up the phone, he sent Lu Qi a WeChat message to talk about work later, then took off his clothes and went into the bathroom.

Lu Qi, who just got the news from Zhou Song and wanted to call Zhong Yicheng to confirm:  …

She knew that Zhong Yicheng would definitely guess what she meant, but she thought Zhong Yicheng would pretend that he didn't know the inside story, and directly refused to help.

But Zhong Yicheng chose to make it clear.

Lu Qi thought a little excitedly, this is what it means to agree!Then this show is Zhong Yicheng's first variety show.

"The two of you have made such a big circle, if I don't agree again, wouldn't it seem too unkind?" Zhong Yicheng sat on the sofa and watched the program plan that Lu Qi brought over.

Behind him, assistant Lu Da held a blower to help him dry his hair.

After receiving the WeChat message, Lu Qi didn't call Zhong Yicheng again, and drove over directly with Zhong Yicheng's assistant.

Lu Qi sat on the sofa opposite, brushed the hair around her ears, and explained to herself, "Don't blame me for going around in circles, if I didn't bring it to you directly, you would definitely not even look at it, otherwise I wouldn't have to spend so much time Strength. Nowadays, more and more attention is paid to the commercial appeal of artists, and you also need to properly manage your business and appease your fans, right?"

"Oh?" Zhong Yicheng disagreed, "I thought the more low-key I was, the higher my commercial value would be."

"You are already at the top, and you should be close to the people. Fans will also change, and the current fan group is relatively young. You have many small fans who have been following you for a long time, but have never seen you alive .

In this circle, that is, you have this capital.It is a last resort for others to disappear, and your refusal to do business is entirely up to you.

Now that you are at the top of the ecological chain, you naturally don’t care what the excitement is like below. Those traffic stars are like leeks, crop after crop, and there are very few who can stay in the public eye.Many newcomers only heard a name today, but they won't see anyone tomorrow.

If one day you really face off against a popular little fresh meat company, your fans really may not be able to match against them. "

Zhong Yicheng listened to Lu Qi telling him these things with great interest. He was not passive in business, but there were some things that were no longer necessary for him now, so why bother competing for attention with newcomers who were not in their prime.He is also selfish and doesn't want to expose himself too much.

"Little Fresh Meat? Are they me? Excuse me, Sister Qi, do I seem to have passed the expiration date?" Zhong Yicheng looked at Lu Qi with a smile.

Lu Qi stared seriously at Zhong Yicheng's face that couldn't find any regrets, the smile on this man's face was really alluring.

She couldn't help sighing, "No, it's still within the shelf life. If you don't look at your temperament, with your current appearance and state, it's not against your will to play a high school student!"

Being with Zhong Yicheng, the boss, is too worry-free. She is good-looking, powerful, and low-key. She doesn't mess around or fall in love. She almost wants to change her career from a manager to an administrative assistant. She can only help him take care of the company's affairs every day. thing.

"I understand my fans. They don't want to rub sand in their eyes. For my first variety show, you asked me to replace other guests. Aren't you afraid that my fans will scold you?"

"Of course I thought about it. It's my fault that I didn't make it clear to you. You are not a substitute. His artist has quit filming. You have to re-sign the contract with the program team."

"Sign one phase first, and I'll see the effect first." Zhong Yicheng was habitually cautious.

Lu Qi nodded readily, "No problem, that's what I thought about it too, I'll negotiate with the program team."

"A reality show is no better than making a movie. There are too many unexpected events. Don't let me see scandals related to me."

"Of course." Lu Qi assured, "As your manager, I only have such a small amount of work throughout the year, so I naturally have to do well."

Work is work, but Lu Qi is still a little puzzled.

In the past, Zhong Yicheng just turned a blind eye to scandals.Ever since he came back from practicing in Dadu Temple five years ago, for some reason, there is no more sand in his eyes, and no scandals related to him.

Thinking of this, Lu Qi couldn't help but sighed, "The more others practice, the more compassionate they become. I think you've become more cold-hearted and indifferent after you came back from Dadu Temple. Occasionally you were hyped by a small artist, and you didn't take it seriously before." , isn’t it too serious now?”

When Zhong Yicheng heard Lu Qi mentioning "Dadu Temple", his back straightened subconsciously, and the idleness all over his body just now disappeared immediately.

He spoke very seriously, with an imperceptible coldness in his voice, "Sister Qi, have you forgotten why I went to Dadu Temple five years ago?"

Lu Qi was taken aback when she heard his words, and realized that she had said something wrong.

Five years ago, Zhong Yicheng was hacked on a large scale. For Zhong Yicheng during that time, when he woke up and opened his eyes, there was still a nightmare in front of him.

Too tormented.

Zhong Yicheng also recalled five years ago, if it wasn't for his bad reputation and scandals, he would not have kept his name and identity from the child from the beginning to the end.

At that time, children didn't like watching movies or surfing the Internet, otherwise it would be impossible not to recognize themselves.

Zhong Yicheng recalled that the 16-year-old boy raised his voice, leaned on the not-so-low wall of the temple and shouted to him with a smile, "Master!"

At that time, I often sat under the bodhi tree in the courtyard and pretended to meditate, but actually figured out the characters in the script.Every time he was just immersed in the character, he would be interrupted by his startled voice soon after.

However, the voice of the young Qingyue was full of joy, which made him, who had tasted all the bitterness, reluctant to stop it, let alone blame it.

If he hadn't been comprehending the core principles of Buddhism in the temple for several months in advance for meditation - precepts, samadhi, and wisdom, he would really be unable to restrain the ever-spreading desire in his heart, and abducted him involuntarily. Come in your arms.

But he couldn't do that, and luckily he didn't.

I hope he can also maintain good habits now, don't watch movies and surf the Internet less, and never know who he is, so he will never know that he has lied to him.

However, it is more likely that the kid back then already knew who he was, and he would probably be very angry, or dismissive, mocking himself for taking himself too seriously and keeping him from him for so long.

Anyway, on the day he left, he decided not to bother him anymore. No matter how the other party blamed him, it was his own fault.

Lu Qi looked at Zhong Yicheng and fell into memories again, with a bitter expression on his face, thinking that he still couldn't let go of what happened back then.

She was full of apology in her heart, "I'm sorry, I've lived with you for so long, I forgot the hardships you have suffered before."

"Don't say that, I went there for half a year at that time, and you didn't leave after many companies poached you. I have to thank you." Zhong Yicheng heard Lu Qi's apology, and comforted him in disguise.

"That's what you said, it's not that you didn't pay me my salary." Hearing this, Lu Qi felt a little better.

Zhong Yicheng flicked through the planner's hands for a moment, he suddenly thought of something, put aside the plan he saw half in his hand, and looked at Lu Qi questioningly.

"I remember that Zhou Song brought a female artist?"

"Yes, my name is Cheng Jia. She has debuted for a long time but she has never been very popular." Lu Qi knew what Zhong Yicheng wanted to say when she heard Zhong Yicheng's opening, so she explained in advance, "Since I said that I am not a replacement, of course you are." They don't know each other, and Zhou Song is also staring at her, so she won't mess around."

"En." Zhong Yicheng didn't say much.

Caring for left-behind children is a good theme.

He didn't agree to participate in this show because of Zhou Song and Lu Qi's painstaking efforts. He knew that public welfare programs would definitely not be entertaining to attract audiences.

He is unwilling to abuse his influence, but if these influences are used for meaningful things, there is no need to stick to his principles.
