"Is it settled?"
The artists had no time to keep quiet, and the shock in their eyes was revealed without reservation.
"Lu Wenxing's life has taken a turn for the better. One moment he lost the endorsement, and the next moment he was spotted by Mr. Gu."
"This is called a counterattack, right? I envy you so much."
“When Wen Yu intercepted Lu Wenxing’s endorsement, did he ever think that he would be intercepted by Lu Wenxing in the same way?”
"What nonsense. The endorsement was given by the agent, not by Brother Wen himself. We are all small-time 18-tier players, so don't we all have to listen to our agents?"
"Anyway, the magazine endorsement that Wen Yu shot today was indeed for Lu Wenxing. Lu Wenxing had already signed the contract, but was temporarily replaced by the agent."
"Now Lu Wenxing has been selected in the interview to replace Wen Yu. Holy shit!!! It's pretty cool to bring Lu Wenxing in."
"In fact, if Wen Yu came on his own, he might not be selected."
“That’s right.”
The person involved, Lu Wenxing, felt neither happy nor pleased. Compared to the excitement of the artists present, his brain had gone into a state of shutdown.
How could this plot deviation be even more outrageous than he thought? What was he doing? Did he accidentally become a cannon fodder?
etc.
Does this mean that no matter how the plot changes, he can't escape the fate of being cannon fodder?
If there really is a butterfly effect, wouldn't the script in his hand become a waste?
"Congratulations, Lu Wenxing."
Director Xu smiled and felt that letting Lu Wenxing take over was the right decision. It seemed that Gu Yanshen was very satisfied with Lu Wenxing.
"Why don't you hurry up and thank Teacher Gu."
"Thank you, Teacher Gu." Lu Wenxing smiled, but Gu Yanshen somehow saw some reluctance in him.
He raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised. Just as he was about to investigate further, Lu Wenxing was hugged by Wei Ze who came in.
"Congratulations! Xingxing."
Wei Ze put his arm around Lu Wenxing's shoulders and was happy for Lu Wenxing. "You have to treat me to a meal."
Lu Wenxing looked at him expressionlessly, "I'm not going to treat you to a meal."
Wei Ze: “…”
What are you doing? So fierce, huh.
After Gu Yanshen was invited to the lounge, the artists left one after another. Lu Wenxing turned around to leave but was stopped by Wang Man.
"etc."
Seeing Wei Ze and Lu Wenxing stop together, Wang Man said to him with a cold face, "Wei Ze, you go out first."
Wei Ze paused, turned to look at Lu Wenxing, and when he saw Lu Wenxing nod, he reluctantly walked out of the practice room.
After Wei Ze left, Wang Man's face became even more sour, and she didn't even bother to cover it up. She sneered, "Okay, Lu Wenxing, no wonder you look down on Director Jiang, it turns out you have a bigger goal. With such a big appetite, can you eat it?"
"I don't mind giving you some general information. Those little celebrities who used Gu Yanshen for hype have been unable to get any resources since they received the lawyer's letter."
"You don't think you are special in Gu Yanshen's eyes, do you?"
Lu Wenxing thought Wang Man would talk to him about the recording, but she had to know that she kept him just to talk about these boring things. Lu Wenxing wouldn't even give her a glance. It was a waste of time.
Being ignored, Wang Man had no idea what Lu Wenxing was thinking. She just thought that Lu Wenxing was being fearless because he was trying to curry favor with Gu Yanshen, and the anger in her heart became even worse.
"Don't be so complacent. Regardless of Gu Yanshen's attitude towards you, if you dare to make any unnecessary moves, Gu Yanshen's fans will tear you apart."
"What do you want to say?"
After hearing this, Lu Wenxing understood that Wang Man was not trying to pressure him to gain attention. She wanted Lu Wenxing to give up and give up participating in the variety show.
But Wang Man could never have imagined that Lu Wenxing himself was even more averse to participating in variety show recordings than she was.
Seeing Wang Man's furious look, Lu Wenxing suddenly felt relaxed physically and mentally. He curled his lips and smiled, his tone full of provocation.
"Do you think the person chosen today should be Wen Yu? Then I really disappoint you. The person chosen by Gu Yanshen... is me."
"Lu Wenxing, the contract hasn't been signed yet, aren't you too happy too soon?"
"So what? Just because you can replace my endorsement doesn't mean you can influence Gu Yanshen's decision. It doesn't matter who you have your eyes on. What matters is that the person Gu Yanshen has his eyes on right now is me."
Lu Wenxing spoke in an arrogant tone and attitude. Without giving Wang Man a chance to react, he turned around and left.
Lu Wenxing could imagine Wang Man's face as dark as the bottom of a pot without even looking back.
Lu Wenxing was originally a little worried about how to refuse the variety show recording. Due to Gu Yanshen's status as a movie emperor, he, a small unknown, really couldn't refuse in public, which would be embarrassing for Gu Yanshen.
As for privately, it is even more difficult for him to contact Gu Yanshen as it is easy for him to be misunderstood as being too friendly or having ulterior motives, although Lu Wenxing doesn't care what others think.
But Gu Yanshen is the top protagonist, so of course he would avoid any contact if possible.
While Wang Man was talking a lot just now, Lu Wenxing suddenly understood.
Wang Man is a person who holds grudges. She said in front of several artists, "As long as Lu Wenxing doesn't apologize to Jiang Zhengqin, he won't get any resources."
When Lu Wenxing first heard this, he didn't take it seriously.
Ever since he knew he was a cannon fodder, he didn't care about any resources at all, but now...
Lu Wenxing hoped that Wang Man would do what she said.
It would be better not to give him any resources, and it would be even better if he could snatch the variety show together. Lu Wenxing said that deliberately just to anger Wang Man.
After spending some time together, Lu Wenxing also understood Wang Man's character.
Wang Man has a strong desire for control. For an artist like Lu Wenxing who is unruly and has great potential, for Wang Man, a cash cow is far less important than a tool who is obedient and allows her to manipulate him.
Lu Wenxing couldn't help but praise his ability to adapt to circumstances just now. Now with Wang Man's help, he didn't have to think of reasons to refuse, Wang Man would think more carefully for him.

"Don't you want to explain?"
Sheng Chao stood in front of Gu Yanshen, looking at Gu Yanshen who was concentrating on the game with a headache.
Who the hell would have thought that the movie star, who usually gives people the impression of being cool and steady, actually has a little-known hobby in private - raising pets online.
Still large and furry.
Looking at the tiger cubs on the screen and Gu Yanshen who was busy feeding them, Sheng Chao's eyebrows were throbbing.
"Are you listening to me?"
"Explain what?"
Gu Yanshen replied nonchalantly, but his eyes did not move away from the phone.
Sheng Chao took a deep breath and comforted himself to stay calm.
"You just chose the person too casually."
"I came here according to Director Chen's request."
Sheng Chao asked in surprise, "When did Director Chen make this request? How come I didn't know about it?"
"Choose someone who makes a deep impression on you or someone you like," Gu Yanshen repeated.
Sheng Chao: ???
"Are you kidding me? Lu Wenxing's self-introduction is just three words. How can it leave a deep impression on you?"
He was answered by silence.
Sheng Chao couldn't stand it any longer and snatched Gu Yanshen's phone away. "Don't even think about playing if you don't explain clearly."
"Tsk." Gu Yanshen looked away regretfully, "I can't name the other artists."
Sheng Chao: “…”
He almost forgot that, except when he was filming, Gu Yanshen mostly had memories of fish.
Most of the artists at Mango Entertainment are trainees, and their specialties are inseparable from singing and dancing. They just excel in different types of dance, but in Gu Yanshen's eyes, there is no difference.
Putting aside his special talents, Lu Wenxing is definitely the most dazzling one, whether in appearance, temperament or personality.
"If Lu Wenxing was not the last one, but in the middle, would you still remember him after listening to the self-introductions of the people behind him?" Sheng Chao asked curiously.
"Remember."
Sheng Chao looked at Gu Yanshen in surprise. For a moment, he wondered whether he really couldn't remember people's names or was just selecting them because of Lu Wenxing.
“His name is easy to remember.”
Sheng Chao: “…”
Well, he was overthinking it.
"I have no objection to you choosing Lu Wenxing, but you should at least make a rough understanding of her. Don't ask any questions and just hastily decide on her..."
Gu Yanshen didn't want to listen to Sheng Chao's chattering, so he interrupted him.
"Lu Wenxing is different from them."
Speaking of this point, Sheng Chao agreed. Lu Wenxing was indeed different from the other artists who participated in the interview. He did not look like he was here for an interview. Instead, he looked like he was just there to make up the numbers.
At the interview, Lu Wenxing appeared surprisingly calm, and it wasn't like he was pretending.
Compared with the eager, passionate, yearning and admiring eyes of other artists, it was almost as if the words "choose me" were engraved on their faces. Some of the artists were fans of Gu Yanshen, and the love in their eyes was hard to conceal.
But a variety show is not a fan meeting. Sheng Chao wants an artist who is not afraid of the camera, can perform freely and does not hype himself up.
Lu Wenxing indeed meets all the requirements because he doesn't look like someone who would participate in a variety show at all.
Sheng Chao didn't say it so bluntly, but said tactfully, "Do you think...I personally think that Lu Wenxing doesn't seem to be very interested in participating in variety shows."
Unexpectedly, Gu Yanshen raised his eyelids and suddenly became serious, "I thought I saw it wrong."
Sheng Chao: “…” So, you also saw it?
grass.
Sheng Chao couldn't help but swear, it turned out that it wasn't his illusion.
But since Gu Yanshen had noticed it, why did he still choose Lu Wenxing?
Is it because Lu Wenxing is attractive to you, or is it because Lu Wenxing is unwilling, so you choose Lu Wenxing?
In just a few minutes, Sheng Chao had fallen into all kinds of ridiculous speculations.
And the more I think about it, the weirder it gets.
After Gu Yanshen discovered his hobby of raising pets, he seemed to have discovered another incredible secret of Gu Yanshen.
The bloody plot of 'The Domineering CEO Falls in Love with Me and Marries Me by Force' from the TV series began to replay in Sheng Chao's mind.
The heroine is a tenacious little white flower. Facing power, she speaks her mind boldly.
"I don't want to."
"Oh, woman, you dare to reject me?"
The male protagonist is a domineering president and everyone admires him, except the female protagonist.
"No, let me go." The little white flower was angry.
"I won't let go. You've successfully caught my attention."
Immediately afterwards, the faces of the male and female protagonists somehow turned into Gu Yanshen and Lu Wenxing.
"You are dressed like this, aren't you just trying to seduce me?" Gu Yanshen's eyes revealed three parts of arrogance and two parts of disdain.
Lu Wenxing rolled his eyes and ignored him.
The interest in Gu Yanshen's eyes deepened. He lifted Lu Wenxing's chin and smiled evilly.
"Man, don't you want to do it?"
…
Then, Sheng Chao was kicked by Gu Yanshen.
"Your smile is a bit vulgar."
There were only the two of them in the lounge, and Gu Yanshen looked at him with disdain.
Sheng Chao quickly shook his head, trying to get rid of the terrible thoughts from his mind.
He shouldn't have watched this kind of TV series from a certain country with his girlfriend. It completely opened the door to a new world.
In order to hide his embarrassment, Sheng Chao coughed lightly and said, "Then I will go and make the final confirmation with Director Xu of Mango Orange Entertainment."
Without waiting for Gu Yanshen to answer, Sheng Chao had already fled.
As soon as Sheng Chao left, Gu Yanshen remembered that his cell phone was still with him.
Communication and negotiation would take a lot of time. After thinking it over, Gu Yanshen decided to chase after him and let Sheng Chao return his phone to him first.
His cubs must be howling with hunger.
"How can Lu Wenxing be so hypocritical? He told Sister Man in the conference room that he wanted to terminate the contract, but then he turned around and went to participate in a variety show interview. He is so hypocritical."
Hearing the word "termination of contract", Gu Yanshen stopped.
The conversation between several people at the corner of the corridor continued.
"Who says it's not true? Only those who really want to terminate the contract will not talk about it. Just like someone who wants to jump off a building will jump directly down instead of standing on the roof and scaring people."
"I really underestimated Lu Wenxing before. No wonder he didn't want to sleep with Director Jiang. Do you think there was some inside story behind Gu Yanshen's choice of him?"
"What inside story? You don't want to say that he and Mr. Gu..."
"What are you thinking? How could Mr. Gu be interested in Lu Wenxing? I mean, Mr. Gu has a lot of experience and knows so many people in the industry. Maybe he knows Lu Wenxing's sponsor."
"I heard from Cheng Yuan this afternoon that the pair of shoes on Lu Wenxing's feet cost less than 10,000 yuan. His clothes usually cost no more than 1,000 yuan. Where did he get the money to buy shoes? It must have been a gift from a sponsor."
"A pair of shoes worth less than 10,000 yuan, isn't this sponsor too stingy?"
"Hahaha, so Lu Wenxing is stupid. He doesn't think he is unique, does he? I heard that big guys in the circle keep mistresses like raising fish. They don't just keep one or two, they keep a whole fish..."
The man suddenly stopped talking. The other artist looked at him in confusion, and when he raised his eyes, he met Gu Yanshen's cold eyes. His heart skipped a beat and he immediately started stuttering.
"Gu, Teacher Gu."
