Fall in love with earthy and delicious boy

On the night of "Jianghu" broadcast, Zhang Qiang and Mr. Lu watched together on the sofa. Zhang Qiang huddled in Mr. Lu's arms, and Mr. Lu put a big blanket behind him, which could directly wrap the two of them together. Strictly.

Zhang Qiang leaned back, put his head on Mr. Lu's shoulder, tilted his head slightly and asked, "I'm afraid I can't act well."

When he spoke, he sprayed hot air on Mr. Lu's neck. Mr. Lu reached into the blanket and held his ankle, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Why are you not afraid when you are acting? I am afraid that it will be too late now."

Hearing this, Zhang Qiang bowed his head to Mr. Lu, and the two watched the screen together. After a while, he said, "Can I really eat like an actor?"

Xiao Lu always rubbed his chin against his cheek, and soon left a blush on his snow-white skin: "I can't say for sure, it depends on yourself and the audience's reaction."

"Hey, I said why don't you know how to encourage me!" Zhang Qiang was a little unhappy, struggling to jump off Mr. Lu.

President Xiao Lu put all his strength into his hands, wrapped his right hand around his waist to keep him from getting up, and held his ankle with his left to keep him still, and whispered in his ear: "I don't speak pretty words, I only do pretty things. "

Zhang Qiang's ears were itchy from his breathing, and he wriggled in his arms like a fish: "You are really dishonest, if your employees know that you are like this in private, they will probably be scared to death Big eyes, now when I think of Sister Mei's expression, I want to laugh."

Mr. Xiao Lu saw that he had a good smile, so he wanted to make him laugh even more. He bit Zhang Qiang's ear, bit and licked lightly, and slowly moved his left hand up along the ankle. , his right hand stretched in from the hem of his short sleeve. After a while, Zhang Qiang’s breathing became disordered. He licked his lips, and suddenly his mouth became dry, and the TV became the background sound. , spit out finely: "...Brother Lu, Brother Lu...."

The next day, Assistant An presented the data report of yesterday's premiere of "Jianghu" to Mr. Lu, and by the way, took another look at Zhang Qiang who seemed to be growing on the sofa in Mr. Lu's office.

Zhang Qiang smiled at him, and jumped over from the sofa very lively: "Brother An, how is it? I just checked Weibo, and everyone's feedback is pretty good!"

A trace of disgust flashed in Assistant An's heart, but there was no disturbance on his face. He reported to Mr. Lu solemnly: "The data is very good. The broadcast volume and click-through rate of the platform and satellite TV have exceeded [-] million." After a pause, he continued: " Jiang Xiaoxiao's popularity has increased significantly. Her Weibo fans have exceeded tens of millions. Several dealers have already invited Jiang Xiaoxiao to endorse through the company. The endorsement just echoes the current "Jiang Hu", and the popularity should increase again, and Jiang Xiaoxiao himself agrees."

President Xiao Lu looked at the document, nodded, signed the document, and handed it to Assistant An: "That's the arrangement, tell the brokerage department to carefully review the contract."

Assistant An took the document: "Okay, Mr. Lu, if there's nothing else, I'll go down and make arrangements."

"Go."

After Assistant An left, Mr. Lu looked at Zhang Qiang who was standing by the desk, and smiled: "I feel a little lost?"

"One thing," Zhang Qiang said with a wry smile, "But it should be. After all, Jiang Xiaoxiao is the protagonist of this TV series, so she should be more popular than me."

"It's good if you can figure this out," President Xiao Lu took a sip of water, stood up, turned around the desk, stopped behind him, put his hands on his shoulders, and said slowly: "But There is nothing in this world that should or should not be done, some people get a lot, but pay more behind the scenes."

Zhang Qiang smiled sideways at him: "Why have you finished all the good and bad things?" Then he got up, filled Mr. Lu's glass with water, hesitated, and said, "Director Chen An contacted me, he said He has a web drama production and wants to ask me to act in it."

President Xiao Lu looked at him: "Do you want to act?"

"Of course I do," Zhang Qiang nodded, "This time it's a school drama, and the role he gave me is the male lead."

Mr. Xiao Lu looked at him and said nothing.

Zhang Qiang continued to bite the bullet: "He said he still hopes that Qingbei Keyue can invest."

"Sister Mei taught you to tell me that?" Boss Xiao Lu looked down at him.

Zhang Qiang didn't speak, just lowered his head and nodded. After a while, he raised his head again with a dazed look on his face: "I feel like I don't know anything except acting and live broadcasting."

He wanted to tell Boss Xiao Lu that he was actually very envious of Assistant An, who was well-organized in everything he did, and seemed to have a well-thought-out plan, very purposeful, very purposeful, but he came to Qingbei City from a small fishing village and plunged headlong into this In the colorful world, there is nothing but daze in his heart. Sometimes he can see Assistant An's eyes clearly, and sometimes he can't. When he can see clearly, he knows that others look down on him. As the assistant's opponent, he didn't have to compete with Assistant An, but in his opinion, even he felt that only someone like Assistant An was a good match for Xiao Lu.

But he couldn't say these words to Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu would not necessarily laugh at him, but he just couldn't say it because he was ashamed in his heart, because as Mr. Lu told him, "some people get a lot, but Pay more behind the scenes", Assistant An is a student who graduated from a prestigious university, and someone who has not even completed nine years of compulsory education, naturally wants to be compared with Assistant An.

President Xiao Lu patted his head and nodded in agreement.

Jiang Xiaoxiao saw Zhang Qiang in the company's gym, smiled sweetly, and said to him, "Congratulations, I heard that you got the leading role in the new play directed by Chen An?"

Zhang Qiang stopped the treadmill, nodded and smiled embarrassingly: "Sister Xiaoxiao, didn't you catch up with the announcement today?"

Since "Jianghu" became popular, Jiang Xiaoxiao, the most popular heroine in "Jianghu", has started to fly around the country, doing promotions with the male protagonists in "Jianghu", occasionally bringing Zhang Qiang, but more The most important thing is that there is no Zhang Qiang, because Zhang Qiang's roles in the whole drama are not too many. After the editing, he only has one or two episodes. Of course, in the subsequent episodes, he also appeared as memories. But not many.

Netizens have a lot of discussions about this drama, and Zhang Qiang also had a lot of exposure at the beginning, but as the plot deepened, Jiang Xiaoxiao and the actor became more mature actors, and the audience was quickly attracted away. looked away.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was jogging on the treadmill. She tied a high ponytail and flicked it on the back of her forehead: "I can rest for an afternoon today, and I will go to shoot a commercial tomorrow, and then I will be busy again. By the way, Zhang Qiang , will you be free later? If you are free, let's have a meal together."

"Okay," Zhang Qiang replied, "I happen to have something I want to ask you about acting." He smiled shyly at this point: "You also know that I will probably join director Chen An's group in a short time. I want you to guide me again."

"No problem," Jiang Xiaoxiao agreed, and said with emotion: "Zhang Qiang, you are really lucky. Director Chen An is willing to use you again and again, which shows that your plays are good. You know, this will improve your reputation in the director circle. Famous, many directors are afraid that the actors' plays will not be good, and they are afraid that the actors will play big names and change the play according to their own temperament."

In fact, Jiang Xiaoxiao also understands that the reason why Chen An uses Zhang Qiang again is nothing more than liking Mr. Lu who is behind Zhang Qiang. Yes, with a little hard thinking, she can guess a lot, so she is very happy to exaggerate and build a good relationship with Zhang Qiang. Of course, she also likes Zhang Qiang from the bottom of her heart. This kind of thing, just looking at Zhang Qiang, she thinks it's pretty good.

Zhang Qiang listened silently on the side, remembering everything in his heart.

The two stayed in the gym all afternoon. Zhang Qiang told Mr. Lu on WeChat that he would have dinner with Jiang Xiaoxiao in the evening. Mr. Lu saw the WeChat, thought about it, and made a phone call.

Because Zhang Qiang didn't go home to eat at night, Mr. Lu didn't have much appetite. He stayed in the office to work overtime. Assistant An saw that Mr. Lu refused to leave, so he asked Wei Feng to leave, and he accompanied Mr. Lu to work overtime.

Zhang Qiang and Jiang Xiaoxiao ate hot pot, and Jiang Xiaoxiao asked a few colleagues from the company to accompany him. Jiang Xiaoxiao restrained herself very much, and put a basin of clear water in front of her to rinse the dishes. Chat, the atmosphere is quite harmonious.

Zhang Qiang knew that people in this industry shouldn't eat too much, because the camera would make them look fat, but he didn't expect Jiang Xiaoxiao to look like this, so he couldn't help asking: "What can you eat like this?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao slowly ate a piece of blanched cabbage leaf: "I really want to eat hot pot, but unfortunately I have to shoot an advertisement tomorrow, logically speaking, I shouldn't eat tonight, but I haven't eaten all day, so I just smell it , appetizer, eat a few leaves to satisfy your mouth addiction."

He didn't eat all day, and he was still exercising in the gym for three hours in the afternoon. Zhang Qiang was immediately in awe: "I admire it!"

He asked Jiang Xiaoxiao seriously about how to act in a school play. Jiang Xiaoxiao told him at first, but seeing how serious he was, he couldn't help but tease: "Actually, it's not that serious! You put your face into the camera , the school play has already succeeded more than half."

Zhang Qiang didn't know why.

Jiang Xiaoxiao chuckled: "Because you are young, the school dramas filmed on the Internet before were always complained by the audience saying that they don't want to watch a group of people in their 40s and [-]s forcefully pretend to be young, so most of the campus dramas now choose some immature faces. Yes, the audience is comfortable watching it when they are young, even if the actor's acting skills are not perfect, the audience still buys it."

Zhang Qiang thought it made sense, and he said to Jiang Xiaoxiao: "How does my Mandarin sound to you? Director Chen An said that he wants to use the original voice..."

When filming "Jianghu" before, Director Chen An wanted to use the original voice for the whole show, but Zhang Qiang's Mandarin is too touching. Director Chen An had no choice but to hire a voice actor to dub him. Fortunately, he doesn't have many roles , not too abrupt in the whole play.

Jiang Xiaoxiao comforted him: "It's much better than before. Don't be afraid. The worse your Mandarin is, the more you need to speak. When I was admitted to the acting academy, I was scolded by the teacher because of my accent. You know, I'm a child star." Origin, before this, no crew has ever responded to my Mandarin problem. Of course, it is also because most of the roles I played before are biased toward daughters, sisters, etc. My hometown is south, and NL sometimes does not distinguish. To correct this problem, I get up at five o'clock every morning and read lines in the school playground, a long paragraph, not only to read correctly, but also to read with emotion, you can try, the teacher scolded me for my accent When there was a problem, the more I went to the teacher, I insisted on reading it to him, and then it gradually got better."

Zhang Qiang doesn't have many celebrities, Jiang Xiaoxiao is the one he is most familiar with, the more he listens to Jiang Xiaoxiao's own experience, the more he feels lucky, he faintly feels that sometimes it is not hard work if it is not from a good family background, Jiang Xiaoxiao The family background must not be bad, but she must have suffered more and sweated more than herself. He has no father and no mother, and his only grandmother is still lying awake all day in the hospital, but he has never felt bitter. Fishing is not bitter, and playing a clown singing and dancing in front of the camera is not bitter. The real suffering begins when you know that you are not as good as others.

The group of them ate from five o'clock to eight o'clock. Because Jiang Xiaoxiao had to shoot commercials, Jiang Xiaoxiao's manager Zhang Luo wanted to leave and send Jiang Xiaoxiao home.

The rest of the people did not agree, saying that Jiang Xiaoxiao could go back, but Zhang Qiang had nothing to do, why not go singing together, Jiang Xiaoxiao patted him on the shoulder before leaving, and whispered: "Go, get to know more friends, and get to know more friends." Expand your network.”

Because in Jiang Xiaoxiao's view, the children of wealthy families like Mr. Lu are unreliable. If someone like Zhang Qiang takes Mr. Lu as his reliance, the consequences will be very tragic.
