Qianying Entertainment

Du Yuanzhe stayed at home for more than half a month, and the first time he went out was to come to the company.

There was no other way, he had to come. If he didn't come, Liu Xu would have to go find him. He couldn't even imagine Liu Xu's expression when he knew he was living in Xia Ningmi's house.

Office

Xiaopang handed Du Yuanzhe a cup of coffee.

Liu Xu asked: "Xiao Pang said your house is under renovation, what's going on?"

Du Yuanzhe knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he said, "I felt that the house was too small, so I bought the upstairs and converted it into a duplex apartment."

Xiaopang was envious. This is the life of rich people.

Liu Xu just asked casually, and then he got to the point: "The casting for "Legend of Yunlan" has been completed. You will join the crew in early September and shoot at the Jiangcheng Film and Television Base. The crew will book a hotel for you all, so don't try to get special treatment."

The opening ceremony was scheduled for early September, which had been decided long ago.

In the past, the original actor always played small roles, and the crew could not book a good place for him. The original owner was unwilling to compromise himself, so he always booked high-end hotels for himself.

Wang Ligang is a famous director in China. He is outspoken and hates actors who seek special treatment or backdoor treatment. If Du Yuanzhe seeks special treatment in his crew, he will be kicked out directly.

Du Yuanzhe nodded: "Don't worry, Brother Liu, I have finally secured this role, and I will definitely not lose the big picture for the small."

"I'm glad you understand."

Liu Xu continued, "The crew will open an official Weibo account in a few days, but your role is still confidential for the time being, so don't rush to follow the official Weibo account."

"Keep it a secret?" Du Yuanzhe said, "I've seen several marketing accounts mention that I will play Luo Xun."

There is very little information in the entertainment industry that can be kept completely confidential unless capital pays to block the news.

"As long as the production team doesn't make an official announcement, these are just speculations. You're not the only one mentioned, just pretend you didn't see it."

Before the filming of each drama begins, as long as the roles have not been officially announced, there will be marketing accounts speculating on the possible actors who may appear in the drama.

There are generally two possibilities for this situation. One is that the production team wants to take advantage of the popularity of the work and pull in famous actors to show off their talents and use public opinion to increase the popularity of the work. The other is that the work has become popular before it is filmed, and the marketing accounts want to take advantage of the popularity and will post on Weibo to speculate on the casting.

"The Legend of Yun Lan" obviously belongs to the latter.

The original novel already has many fans, and the fact that it is directed by Wang Ligang and produced by Qianying Entertainment has caused a lot of discussion as soon as the news of the adaptation came out. After such a long time, the popularity has not diminished, and it can definitely be said that it became popular before it was even filmed.

However——

Du Yuanzhe said thoughtfully: "After the official announcement, I may have to uninstall Weibo for a while."

The original owner always gave people the impression of a sunny young man, which cannot be said to be exactly the same as Luo Xun's image. It can only be said that they are completely unrelated. Fans of the original novel will definitely not be satisfied.

Liu Xu understood what Du Yuanzhe meant and said, "That's nothing. When your fame grows, you will be questioned more and more. People who dislike you will always like to criticize you. You have to learn to get used to it."

Du Yuanzhe was an unknown person in his previous life and had never been the subject of any negative information fabricated about him, but he had read a lot of negative information about celebrities. Some of it was so well-founded that netizens could even get the celebrities’ household registration information as evidence. If the truth had not come to light later, Du Yuanzhe would have really thought it was true.

Since then, Du Yuanzhe no longer believed the so-called negative information on the Internet.

Once you become a public figure, you are bound to be criticized by others, and there is nothing you can do about it.

Du Yuanzhe suddenly had an idea and asked, "Brother Liu, did you take photos of the look for the charity gala?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Send it to me and I'll post a Weibo with that photo."

Liu Xu had a puzzled look on his face.

Du Yuanzhe explained: "I will definitely be scolded anyway. With that photo, some people can't pretend to be blind and scold me for being ugly."

Du Yuanzhe is not just worrying about nothing. Some fans are dissatisfied with the casting because they think the actors are not as good-looking as the characters.

Du Yuanzhe is not bragging, he is definitely not ugly. Although he is not the type of flower boy, his face shape and facial features are impeccable. If he wants, he can let the company create a perfect male god image for him.

Liu Xu thought this made sense, and sent more than ten photos to Du Yuanzhe, all of which had been retouched.

Du Yuanzhe looked through all the photos and finally selected the one that he was most satisfied with.

In the photo, Du Yuanzhe is standing on the stairs with one hand on the handrail. The sunlight outside shines on him through the window. The white suit perfectly sets off his figure. He looks at the camera with no expression on his face, which is completely different from his previous image. He has a sense of abstinence.

Du Yuanzhe didn't bother to think about the content of the article and just posted a photo.

As soon as he posted it, several fans commented below, praising him for being handsome and asking him when he would join the crew to film.

He has more than one million fans on Weibo, but only a few of them are true fans. The original owner was passive even in acting, let alone operating on Weibo. His Weibo is always overgrown with weeds, and you can hardly see him except when he is promoting a drama.

This time, he posted a private photo for the first time, and his clever fans were all guessing whether he was going to join a group.

Du Yuanzhe did not reply. This was a Weibo post he left for netizens to vent their insults at him. If he replied now, those people would definitely insult him under his comments. He is not that magnanimous.

Xiaopang exclaimed in surprise and said happily: "Brother Zhe, the number of likes has exceeded 2,000."

Du Yuanzhe held his forehead and said, "I am a star after all. Your reaction is a bit insulting."

"But your Weibo likes never grew as fast as this time."

Du Yuanzhe clicked on the comments again and found some new comments.

*: "Sha, so cool, but the belt is too troublesome, I want to untie it"

**: "Hey, man, are you trying to seduce me?"

***: "You are worthy of being my husband. Please give me a kiss, a hug and a lift up high."

Well, it’s confirmed, they are all a bunch of perverts who are after him.

Du Yuanzhe turned off his phone and asked, "Brother Liu, is there anything else?"

Liu Xu said: "You have to start exercising from now on, and you can't stop even after you join the crew."

"fitness?"

"You won't forget the scene where Luo Xun is healing in a pool of blood, right? You definitely had to be topless in that scene."

Du Yuanzhe was only focused on studying the character's emotions and really didn't pay attention to these things. The original owner basically didn't exercise, and although he didn't have much fat on his body, his body lines weren't good-looking either. You could tell at first glance that he was a weakling.

"Okay, I understand."

Liu Xu emphasized: "It's best to train your abdominal muscles before filming this scene."

Du Yuanzhe nodded: "I understand."

Actors are supposed to gain or lose weight for a role, and Du Yuanzhe has no objection to this.

Afterwards, Liu Xu said some more things to pay attention to and let Du Yuanzhe leave.

Xiao Pang asked in confusion: "Why didn't Brother Liu mention anything about the variety show?"

Liu Xu originally planned to have Du Yuanzhe appear on a variety show to make his presence felt before joining the group.

Liu Xu shook his head and said, "I thought about it and decided to forget it. For Yuanzhe, as long as he can film Luo Xun well, it is more important than anything else. Let him prepare for this month."

bite--

Du Yuanzhe waited for the elevator to open, and when he looked up he saw Xia Ningmi and Cheng Yu in the elevator.

[This is the nth time I have run into Xia Ningmi in the elevator]

Seeing Du Yuanzhe, Cheng Yu was the first to greet him: "Second Young Master Du."

Du Yuanzhe nodded.

As the elevator door closed, silence fell in the elevator and no one spoke.

[Should I say something? Never mind, we are not familiar with each other, I don’t know what to say]

Xia Ning raised her eyes and glanced at Du Yuanzhe.

Cheng Yu kept an eye on the two of them, secretly wondering if it was because of her being a third wheel that the two didn't want to talk.

After a while, the elevator reached the first floor. Du Yuanzhe strode out of the elevator. After taking a few steps, he heard the staff greeting Xia Ningmi.

Xia Ningmi is too ambitious in the company, so he'd better stay away from her in the future.

squeak--

As Du Yuanzhe walked out of the company, a white van slammed on the brakes and stopped in front of him. Then two burly men got out of the car and carried Du Yuanzhe directly into the car.

"Second Master, the boss wants to see you."

Oh no, they are Du Yuanwen’s people!

Du Yuanzhe struggled hard: "Let me go quickly, you are kidnapping, do you know that I will sue you..."

Xia Ningmi saw this scene as soon as she came out, and watched Du Yuanzhe being taken away by the van.

Cheng Yu's face changed drastically: "President, do we need to call the police?"

It is really bold that someone dared to kidnap someone at the company gate in broad daylight.

Xia Ningmi watched the van disappear and said, "No, he will be fine."

Du Yuanzhe's expression just now was not one of fear, but a bitter face. It seemed that he knew who was the mastermind behind the scenes.

In fact, Xia Ningmi could guess who it was.

......

Taekwondo gym

Du Yuanwen threw a pair of boxing gloves to Du Yuanzhe and said with narrowed eyes: "If you want to leave here, either beat me or be beaten by me!"

Du Yuanzhe looked bitter: "Brother, it's been half a month. You are too vindictive."

Du Yuanwen sneered: "Then did you know that my mother placed the fertility-giving Guanyin in the living room and worshipped it every day?"

Du Yuanzhe smiled awkwardly: "Mom can only pray to Guanyin, she won't really urge you."

Chen Rongshan is actually a pretty good mother-in-law. Although she really wants to have grandchildren, she doesn't force them and she isn't weird either.

"If not, do you think a beating would be enough?"

Seeing that Du Yuanzhe still didn't move, Du Yuanwen said, "I'm kindly reminding you that if you let me handle it, the beating will be over. If you let your sister-in-law handle it, she has a lot of photos of celebrities in her hands..."

Du Yuanzhe shuddered and raised his hand to interrupt, "Brother, stop talking!"

Du Yuanzhe smiled slightly, tightened his gloves, and hooked his fingers, saying, "Come on!"

......

At night, Jincheng Garden

As soon as Xia Ningmi returned home, she saw Du Yuanzhe applying medicine to himself with his upper body naked, and his chest and arms were covered with bruises.

The only thing to be thankful for is that his face was fine. It seems that Du Yuanwen still remembers that his brother has to rely on his face to make a living.

Du Yuanzhe saw Xia Ning was stunned, he looked up at the clock on the wall, it was only six o'clock in the afternoon.

"Why are you back so early?"

Xia Ning glanced at the scars on his body and said calmly, "It's time to get off work."

[It’s amazing, you even have the word “get off work” in your dictionary]

In the past half month, Xia Ningmi would not go home before eleven o'clock. To her, home was just a place to sleep.

Xia Ning ignored his inner complaints and went back to her room to change clothes.

Du Yuanzhe looked at her back and had an inexplicable feeling.

[Why do I feel like she came back just to laugh at me?]

Xia Ning paused for a moment before opening the door and walking in.
