My soul and I have interpenetrated [Entertainment Circle]

When Shi Zhou woke up, his head was still throbbing dizzily, and his eyes were terribly sore.

He subconsciously took a breath, and the hand that picked up the phone was a little detached, and it slammed on the floor with a thud.

The sound of footsteps outside the bedroom immediately sounded, and within a few seconds, Hanhan pushed the door open and entered, "Brother Zhou, you finally woke up!"

Shi Zhou squinted his eyes and reacted for a while before realizing that he was in his own home. His voice was dry and hoarse, "Hanhan, what time is it?"

"It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon."

Hanhan picked up Shi Zhou's cell phone and poured him another glass of warm water to moisten his throat, "Brother Zhou, I called you once at noon, but you were too drunk to wake up from a deep sleep."

After drinking half a glass of warm water, Shi Zhou felt his throat a little more comfortable.

He tried to drive away the pain of the hangover, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember much substantive content, "How did I get back last night?"

"Brother Wen probably sent you back, right? Anyway, I rushed here after receiving a call from Brother Wen. You were already sleeping. Brother Wen left me a note to explain the situation, and you have already left." Han Honestly tell the truth.

"..."

Shi Zhou was stunned for a while, "Yanwen sent me back?"

Hanhan continued to nod, not forgetting to worry, "Brother Zhou, you usually drink well and restrain yourself, why did you drink so much at someone's birthday party?"

Thanks to Sheng Yanwen's style, if he meets an old man with plans like Zhao Yanqing's, then things will get into trouble.

Birthday party?

He didn't go at all last night?Could it be that he went to find Sheng Yanwen after drinking?

Shi Zhou never expected that he could still have something to do with Sheng Yanwen last night, so he quickly called out the system.

It's just that the response from my own system was several seconds slower this time, [Zhoubao!I'm coming! 】

Shi Zhou immediately asked, [Fifteen, how did Yan Wen know that I was in the tavern last night?What happened next, you know? 】

The system chuckled twice, [Zhoubao, I was worried that you would be in danger if you were drunk, so I sent a location message to Sheng Yanwen in your name, and after confirming that he was looking for you, I automatically shut down the phone. 】

The system paused, and put on [Little Proud]'s voice pack, [Didn't you say that you need to learn to automatically shut down at certain 'critical times'?Am I doing well?How were you and Sheng Yanwen last night? 】

"..."

How about what?

He only vaguely remembered dreaming that Sheng Yanwen, five years later, was going to sign a divorce agreement with him, and then cried and hugged each other without letting go. .

Shi Zhou rubbed his swollen temples, [Fifteen, I have a hangover and headache, do you have any skill points to block it? 】

After the system heard this, it immediately used the appropriate skill points.

Seeing that Shi Zhou was dumbfounded and did not speak, Han Han waved his hand in front of him, "Brother Zhou? Brother Zhou!"

Shi Zhou came back to his senses, "Huh?"

Hanhan asked, "Do you still want to sleep? If you're drunk, I'm afraid you'll sleep more and more sleepy, why don't you take a shower first, then take a hangover medicine, and I'll get you some noodles to pad your stomach."

"The driver and I made an appointment to go back to Hengcheng at [-] o'clock. We will go back and take a rest. We will continue shooting tomorrow."

As a personal life assistant, Hanhan's performance can hardly be faulted.

Shi Zhou raised his lips slightly, "Well, good."

Hanhan glanced at the time, "Then I'll cut some side dishes and noodles for you, about 10 minutes or so."

Shi Zhou nodded, and only after the little assistant left the room door did he pick up his phone and send Sheng Yanwen a WeChat message——

"Last night, I drank too much to remember, but thank you for sending me back."

Shi Zhou clutched his phone and waited for four or five minutes, but temporarily failed to receive news from Sheng Yanwen. He thought of Hanhan who was still busy in the kitchen, so he had to get up first and hurry up to clean himself up.

After washing and coming out, there was also a WeChat notification on the screen of the phone, which was a reply from Sheng Yanwen——

"In the future, drink less alcohol when things happen, especially outside. Remember to take anti-alcohol medicine when you wake up and feel uncomfortable. I'm still a little busy here, so I won't talk to you more."

The concern between the lines is the same as usual.

A smile appeared on the corner of Shi Zhou's mouth, and he couldn't help replying in voice, "Yes, I see."

It seems like an ordinary answer, but there is a bit of dependence and coquettish hidden in the ending.

As soon as the news was sent out, there was a naive shout in the living room, "Brother Zhou, the noodles are almost ready!"

"coming."

Shi Zhou put down his phone to charge it, and walked out in a pretty good mood.

After being hungry for almost a day, Shi Zhou has a good appetite for noodles.

Seeing him sucking noodles, Hanhan happily shared with him what he had seen and heard in the past two days, "Brother Zhou, do you know that the national ratings of the latest two episodes of "Ghost Times" have exceeded 2.5%?"

"It's 2.5% so soon?" Shi Zhou raised his eyes in surprise.

Hanhan nodded hurriedly.

You must know that because of the rise of the Internet, the ratings of popular TV dramas these years have begun to decline, and it is already the threshold for a hit drama to reach 2%.

"A Troubled Times" has only been aired for 1/3 of the time. As long as the follow-up episodes don't delay, the major awards ceremonies at the end of the year will definitely be on the list.

The update of the latest episode is stuck in Ren Wang riding a horse and leading Yan to chase back. This famous scene has attracted countless new fans.

In the past, he was afraid of being scolded by Wei fans for the "prosperity" CP, but now the number of CP fans is so large that he can already be on an equal footing with Wei fans.

Shi Zhou took a sip of the noodle soup, "No matter what the fans are, as long as they don't fight like before."

After all, if he and Sheng Yanwen can really get together as they did in the past, sooner or later there will be an open day, and it would be nice for fans to have a smooth transition to accept it.

Hanhan answered, "Brother Zhou, don't worry, the families are all in peace now."

Right now, the ratings of "Troubled Times" are rising steadily, and the popularity of Shi Zhou and Sheng Yanwen are also soaring at a high speed. It is uncertain how many opponents will be secretly jealous.

Fans are all for their own masters, and no one is willing to make troubles on this level of 'cooperation and win-win', lest someone who cares will look at the screenshots and make a fuss.

Shi Zhou pursed his lips and felt relieved.

Hanhan continued, "Brother Zhou, guess what happened to the drama "Drunken Country"?"

"what happened?"

Since the counterattack of 'Resource Leakage' ended, Shi Zhou ignored the drama.

"The ratings were affected by Luo Yicheng's slander, and the lowest period even plummeted to 0.6%, which was terrible. After the second week of broadcasting, the TV station directly returned the product."

"I see that Qin Meng's team has published drafts openly and secretly to express their dissatisfaction with Luo Yicheng several times."

"Drunken Country" is also filming and broadcasting at the same time. The cost of marketing investment is more than that of "Troubled Times", and the production cost is also high.

In addition, if the TV station returns the products, it may also affect the profits of advertisers such as intermediaries. Now Zhao Yanqing and other investors have lost all their money.

"The last star drama has been withdrawn and turned into a webcast, and the number of broadcasts still can't increase." Hanhan told all the news he knew, "I heard from the gossip that the crew temporarily promoted the male lead as the male lead. The plot line has to be cut a lot.”

Forced to be anticlimactic, this not only ruined the original author's portrayal, but also wasted the efforts of the crew.

Therefore, the burden on an actor is very heavy, and a person with a weak sense of morality will be in this mixed entertainment circle, and it will be a matter of time before he overturns.

Shi Zhou cleaned up the last bit of pasta, "Please ask the driver to come an hour earlier, and return to Hengcheng earlier, so we can rest earlier at night."

"it is good."

The ratings of the TV series have gone up, and the crew has become more rigorous in filming.

The story in the script is still progressing——

The foreign enemy troops who originally planned to break through the two major barriers of the West Territory and North Ridge in the cold winter did not succeed, but suffered heavy losses.The good news of the frontier army spread along the road back to the capital of Dazong.

The common people cheered happily, and all the officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Only the Empress Dowager and a group of relatives praised on the surface, but their teeth itched with anger in their hearts.

This battle was fought hard and beautifully, which will only make the two families of generals in the West Territory and North Ridge more popular, and it will be even more difficult to regain military power.

After the fighting stopped for a while, the Empress Dowager began to turn her eyes back to the palace.

It just so happened that an eyeliner came to report that three months ago, the eunuch Li Wenxing had secretly left the palace to meet the Cao family, one of the aristocratic families, and had a long conversation with Cao Keqing, Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

When the army in the western region was defeated midway, it was Cao Keqing who led the Yang and Song families to protect them, so that the empress dowager could not seize the military power under the pretext of 'defeat'.

Later, it was Emperor Yan Zhui who forced the Xiao family to bring military rations to aid the West Territory and North Ridge on the grounds of 'preserving the great power', which turned defeat into victory for the latter.

Li Wenxing and the Cao family, the emperor and empress Xiao Ronger and the Xiao family!

The Empress Dowager was an old fox, she could understand the clue after a little thought, and she, who was filled with anger in her heart, found all this on Li Wenxing.

Behind Yan Zhui's back, she had the eunuch Li Wenxing captured and executed in secret. By the time Yan Zhui realized something was wrong and arrived, Li Wenxing's body had already completely cooled down in the darkroom of the prison.

The shooting scene fell into a desolate silence, and the staff members who followed the film crew step by step into the scene were immersed in the despair and grief of the death of the great eunuch Li Wenxing.

In the real-time footage from the monitor, Yan Zhui, played by Shi Zhou, is stepping down the steps step by step.The blood on the stairs stained the hem of his clothes, like red plums and snow falling, the beauty was extraordinarily bleak.

The apprentice brought out by Li Wenxing fought back tears and followed Yan Zhui, "Your Majesty, the dark room of the prison is too cold today, and your blood is heavy, your body will not be able to bear it, you should listen to the advice of the servant and go back earlier. "

"Master, master, the servant will collect the corpse for him."

Yan Zhui numbly pushed away the hand that the little eunuch wanted to support, and walked to the corpse facing the ground while breathing heavily.

Li Wenxing's white undershirt was completely stained with blood, congealed into black and frightening blood stains.

Yan Zhui disregarded the mess and bloody collision, squatted down, and turned Li Wenxing over, his eyes, which could be regarded as cloudy, were wide open, but there was no anger in them.

——I will die with my eyes closed.

The camera zooms in.

When the staff at the scene saw the picture on the monitor, they showed shock and admiration at the same time——

Teacher Chi Yuanshan is indeed an old drama player!

This 'post-death' demeanor and vision is not something ordinary people can easily show!

Yan Zhui's breathing was slightly stagnant, and his trembling eyelashes projected the despair in his heart. After all, his remaining hope was completely shattered.

To him, Li Wenxing was not just a personal eunuch in charge.

He is the person left to Yan Zhui by the late emperor, and his status in Yan Zhui's heart has already surpassed that of a so-called master and servant, but a completely trustworthy elder.

Yan Zhui had struggled in the palace in the past, at least Li Wenxing could understand his pressure and take care of all the things he couldn't do.

Li Wenxing must have used the death penalty to interrogate him before he was alive, otherwise he would not have left so many scars and blood on his body. The empress dowager's manipulation of him meant she had indirectly shown her attitude towards the new emperor.

Suddenly, the little eunuch took out a piece of bloody cloth from the slit inside the trouser leg.

He said in a voice that was hoarse from crying, "Your Majesty, this, this is the blood book left by Master?"

"The old man told the servant a long time ago that if something happens to him one day, if his body can be found, he must... must remember to search this place."

The little eunuch is not very literate, so he can only present the blood book to Yan Zhui.

Yan Zhui hurriedly snatched the blood book to check, the font on it was blurred due to the blood sticking together, only a few words could be vaguely discerned——

It's cold, I hope the emperor will take care of himself and cherish it.

Even if he was caught suddenly, even if he knew that there was no way out for him, the last words written in blood before he died were still a confession of worry about Emperor Yan Zhui's health.

The camera slowly zoomed in, Shi Zhou's calm to numb expression finally broke through a crack, and in an instant, the two-way calm and restrained eyes were filled with water.

pat.

A bean-sized tear fell on the blood book, blurring the word cherish.When the little eunuch looked up again in astonishment, the emperor still had the same look on his face.

He is the emperor, no matter how sad or painful he has to endure it completely.

With Li Wenxing gone, the empress dowager's monitoring of him will only intensify. From now on, his journey in the palace will be even more difficult.

Yan Zhui held the blood book tightly in his hand, and raised his hand to close Li Wenxing's eyes.

——Uncle Xing, rest in peace, go to the Nine Springs and spend good time with my father, the old man.

Yan Zhui withdrew his hand, but said to the little eunuch lightly, "Give your master a good burial, and if the empress dowager dares to stop her, say it's my order."

He came regardless of the emperor's status, so he was worthy of Li Wenxing's loyalty.

...

"Card! It's over!"

It can be regarded as a heavy scene successfully completed.

Shi Zhou took over immediately and walked back, together with the actor who played the little eunuch, helped Chi Yuanshan up, "Teacher Chi, are you okay?"

Seeing that it's winter, wearing a thin layer of costumes and lying in a damp dungeon, getting old, if you are not careful, you will get sick from the cold.

Besides, according to the arrangement of the scenes, Chi Yuanshan has to maintain a state of 'open eyes but not blinking' for a period of time, which is an extreme test of physiological instinct.

Chi Yuanshan patted the wrinkled costume with a smile, "It's okay, didn't you give me a few before the filming... What's it called?"

Shi Zhou responded, "Warm baby stickers."

"Yes, yes, good stuff." Chi Yuanshan revealed with a smile, "I put it between the costume and my own underwear, so that it doesn't show the stuffing and keep warm."

Shi Zhou said with a smile, "If you think this thing is useful, I will ask my assistant to send you a few more boxes later, and you can also ask your family to help you buy it in the future."

"That's a good relationship. I'm getting old, and my body is not as cold as when I was young."

Chi Yuanshan patted Shi Zhou's hand kindly. After getting along with him for this period of time, he liked this young actor who was hard-working and talented.

The assistant director and the scene manager came up with a shocking red envelope and a flower bouquet, "Mr. Chi, thank you for your dedication to this drama and the role. Director Sun should have come in person today, but the scenes in Group B are too heavy. If you really can’t leave, he still asks you not to be offended.”

Chi Yuanshan is easy to speak, "What's this? Everything is important in the play."

The crew took turns to take a group photo with Chi Yuanshan, who was finished, before finishing today's work.

The assistant director raised his voice and said, "Our group A has worked hard for half a month, we will have a day off tomorrow, and we will start filming on time at noon the day after tomorrow."

"Yes! Thank you assistant director."

Shi Zhou heard cheers behind him, but his emotions were stuck in his role and he couldn't get out.

He quickly returned to the lounge, and took back the phone from Hanhan.

The top chat interface still stays at two hours ago, and he sent it to Sheng Yanwen, "I will be filming with Mr. Chi later, and he is going to wrap up today."

The other party's reply did not appear.

Shi Zhou's eyes dimmed, and he couldn't help scrolling through the recent chat records.

Since the night of getting drunk, the frequency of Sheng Yanwen's replies is obviously much slower than before, and sometimes the filming is used as an excuse, and the conversation between the two of them can't talk at all.

This feeling inexplicably reminded Shi Zhou of the two years when he lived in a foreign country.

In the last six months, Sheng Yanwen also became more and more busy because of the filming of "Wen Feng", and because of the time difference, the number of chats between the two became less and less, and the interval between replies became longer and longer.

Distance creates uneasiness, and uneasiness gradually creates estrangement.

It's just that Shi Zhou didn't expect that even if they are filming on the same crew now, the two of them can change their tastes because they are on different sets.

"..."

What the hell is going on?

Did I say something I shouldn't have said that night?

While Shi Zhou was hesitating secretly, there was a knock on the door, and he looked up, only to find Chi Yuanshan standing at the door.

Shi Zhou hurriedly got up to greet him, "Teacher Chi."

After hearing his answer, Chi Yuanshan carried him into the lounge, "Xiaozhou, I didn't bother you, did I?"

"Of course not." Shi Zhou approached, "Mr. Chi, what do you want to drink? I'll ask my assistant to prepare it for you."

"Do not bother."

Chi Yuanshan waved his hand, and passed the small box in his hand, "Xiaozhou, I'm giving you a small gift, just treat it as your return gift to my warm baby, open it and have a look?"

Shi Zhou's heart moved, and when he opened the small box, it really contained the thin wooden bookmark with hand-carved orchids.

"I don't understand young people's novelties. This is what I made with my friends when I had nothing to do in the past two years. Four gentlemen of 'Plum Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum', this orchid stick is given to you. It can be used in filming and rewriting scripts in the future. superior."

Back then, Chi Yuanshan also gave this bookmark to Guo Shizhou when he finished the project.

It's a pity that Shizhou only used it to film a suspense drama that ended without a problem, and then it was never used again.

Shi Zhou was afraid of delaying the old man's expectations, "Mr. Chi, that warm baby is worthless, this item is too expensive."

"Hey, there is no distinction between gifts. It is said that orchids and jade bones are beautiful. Even a gentleman is also known as a beauty. I heard from my granddaughter that you still have the title of beauty in the circle. This gift should be given to you. "

Facing Chi Yuanshan's praise, Shi Zhou's face turned hot slightly, "Thank you, Teacher Chi."

The more Chi Yuanshan looked at Shi Zhou, the more satisfied he became. He always felt that this young actor had a maturity and stability that didn't match his age.

He asked with a smile, "Teacher Chi sounds weird. If you want, you can call me Teacher."

"I heard from director Sun Cong that you are not from a major, if you encounter any problems in acting that you can't study, you can come to me."

The implication is that he intends to treat Shizhou as a student.

Shi Zhou couldn't help but clenched the small box tightly, enduring the soreness on the tip of his nose, "Thank you teacher, I will definitely keep it safe."

Chi Yuanshan patted his hand, "Then I'll go first? This time, I'm done. Your wife is still waiting for me to go home for dinner. If you have a chance, you will come to visit me some other day."

"Ah."

Shi Zhou responded with a low voice.

He looked at Chi Yuanshan's back, and all the things that happened in the past two years suddenly flashed in his mind, "Teacher, wait a minute! I, I have a question I want to ask you."

Chi Yuanshan turned to look at him, and responded with a smile, "What's the problem?"

Shi Zhou considered his wording, "If, I mean if."

"Because of some special reasons, I have to temporarily leave the entertainment industry. This choice will affect my career, love and even change my life plan. If it were you, would you regret it or start over?"

Chi Yuanshan looked at Shi Zhou with complicated eyes, and didn't ask him too much where the question came from.

He stood up straight with his hands behind his back, and said from the experience of those who have experienced it, "Xiaozhou, there is no shortcut in life, and there is no chance to overthrow it and start over."

"Instead of thinking about how to go back and change, it's better to cherish all the experience that the years have brought you, and continue to grasp everything in the present. As long as you make a choice according to your own heart, no matter what the result is, it is not a regret."

"As for love..."

Chi Yuanshan chuckled, "When you reach my age, you will find that as long as you have each other in your heart, he (she) will respect your choice and support your decision."

"If you feel owed to someone, then respond boldly when you can. The one you love is not afraid that you are late."

Shi Zhou stood where he was, silently remembering Chi Yuanshan's words in his heart, "...the one you love is not afraid of being late?"

Chi Yuanshan didn't break the casserole and asked the end, but just smiled and hoped, "When you meet someone you like in the future, remember to come and show it to the teacher."

Shi Zhou pursed his lips, "Thank you teacher."

Chi Yuanshan waved to him, and then left slowly.

When Shi Zhou returned to the lounge, he looked at the still unanswered WeChat message, and suddenly made a decision in his heart.

--

Xiangshan film and television base, the sky is getting dark.

Sheng Yanwen, who was wearing a shirt, had just finished filming a scene, and before he could recover from the character's ruthless emotions, he heard a commotion outside the set.

Sheng Yanwen looked back, only to find a familiar figure walking out from the gathered staff, and Shi Zhou, who was supposed to be filming at Hengcheng Film and Television Base, actually appeared here!

"..."

The eyes of the two collided in mid-air, and Sheng Yanwen felt that his heart, which had been suppressed for half a month, started beating strongly again.

Sun Cong, the director, was also a little surprised, and got up to greet the leading actor Shi Zhou, "Xiao Zhou, why don't you stay in Hengcheng well, why did you come here in a blink of an eye?"

"Director, our group A is progressing faster than your group B, and the assistant director was given a short vacation for a day." When Shi Zhou and Sun Cong said this, they couldn't help but glance at Sheng Yanwen, " I'm free to visit the class."

He listened to Chi Yuanshan's persuasion and came here temporarily.

"I contacted two western-style food trucks in advance, and prepared about [-] sets of food. When the crew has a meal, if you need it, you can go get it yourself."

The listening staff cheered without exception.

How could Sun Cong fail to see Shi Zhou's look looking back, turned his head and saw Sheng Yanwen who was still stupidly standing by the tent door, and teased without saying anything, "You are the only one who can make trouble."

With such a high-intensity shooting, I wanted to meet the person in my heart even if I had an extra day.

Shi Zhou chuckled, "I'll say hello to Yan Wen."

As he spoke, he ignored Sun Cong who was using him as a 'cover', and walked quickly towards the tent door.

Xiaocheng winked at the makeup and other staff, and everyone exited the shooting camp tactfully.

Sheng Yanwen looked at Shi Zhou standing in front of him, and rarely could not react, "You, why did you come here suddenly?"

"Come to visit the class."

It might not be easy to meet in a foreign country back then, but now that he has the opportunity, Shi Zhou doesn't want to let go of the time to meet and get along.

Even if there was a estrangement and misunderstanding again between the rumors and rumors this time, he would have to ask them face to face before resolving it.

Shi Zhou made up his mind, and before everyone could react, he closed the thick blanket door of the tent, instantly turning the tent into a space for two people.

He boldly approached Sheng Yanwen, whispered in his ear, and said in the most gentle and coquettish words——

"Yanwen, I miss you, so I'm here."
