Chapter 78



Yu Xin brought a large stack of scripts, most of which were produced by famous directors and screenwriters, all of which starred male protagonists, without even a supporting male role.

"This drama is good," Yu Xin picked up a youth romance film and waved it in front of Yu Qinghuan.

Last time he tried to persuade Yu Qinghuan to take on a light urban comedy but failed. This time he was determined to get his artist to take on a more normal drama!

"Youth dramas are very popular right now, and you're at the right age," he pointed at the name on the script and carefully analyzed it for Yu Qinghuan: "This is adapted from a very popular novel recently, which already has a huge readership. You're a good actor, and you look good, so the final result will definitely be good."

Yu Qinghuan has risen to his current status within just one year of entering the industry, but Yu Xin actually feels a little unreal in his heart. He has been trembling with fear, fearing that his next movie will flop.

Therefore, the path he set for Yu Qinghuan was to try his best to maintain the current achievements rather than to boldly explore new areas.

"No, I don't want to take on a romance drama." Yu Qinghuan thanked Yu Xin for his kindness and put the script aside.

If nothing goes wrong, he will come out soon, which would be inappropriate in a romance film. What's more, Huo Qu always felt insecure. Although he felt much better during this period, it was the result of his careful maintenance. If he hugged the actress at this time, Huo Qu's situation would probably return to the starting point.

Compared with box office guarantees, Huo Qu is much more important to him.

"You are so stubborn!" Yu Xin was stunned at first, but soon understood Yu Qinghuan's intention and said to him angrily, "Married actors are still acting in sex scenes! It's not real, it's just acting."

Yu Qinghuan still shook his head and picked out all the scripts that had love as the main plot, saying, "They are them, I am me, and Huo Qu's situation is different from that of others."

"I really can't control you anymore!" Yu Xin turned his head away angrily, out of sight out of mind.

"No, brother." Yu Qinghuan poked him with his elbow and smiled, holding a script and said, "I think this one is good."

Yu Xin wanted to pretend to be angry, but when he heard what he said, he immediately turned his head and looked at the cover. He was stunned for a moment, "You want to take this one?"

He paused, his expression somewhat complicated, "This drama will not start filming until next year, so you will have at least four months free in between."

Yu Xin knew Yu Qinghuan well and knew that he would definitely not use these four months to take on another role, so he could only persuade him again: "Even though you are quite popular now, if you disappear for four months, how will the audience remember you!"

According to his style, he would never bring this drama to Yu Qinghuan. But Huo Rong directly gave it to him, saying that it was recommended by Cen Feng.

He thought it would be a hot topic nowadays, but after reading the script several times, he couldn't see a single point that could make it popular!

The movie is called "Revenge" and is adapted from a novel by Pujiang Literature City.

Pujiang Literature City is the world's largest literary website, and countless novels sell their film and television copyrights every day.

Because of the reader base, most novels have a strong ability to create stars after being adapted into movies. This is also the reason why Yu Xin persuaded Yu Qinghuan to take on that youth film just now.

But this "Revenge" is different. The data was very cold during the serialization period and there were almost no readers. In Yu Xin's opinion, selling the film and television copyrights was pure luck. He didn't know whether the investors were stupid and had a lot of money, as they actually spent a huge amount of money to shoot the film.

Cen Feng and Huo Rong might have been blinded by lard and tried their best to recommend it to Qing Huan!

"No," Yu Qinghuan multitasked, continuing to flip through the pages while talking to Yu Xin: "How to Love You will be released during the Spring Festival."

He didn't deliberately choose "Revenge" because he was really interested in the script, not because he was afraid that Yu Xin would persuade him to take a romance film.

"Revenge" tells the story of a young man's revenge for his wife.

Li Yue and his wife Feng Ying have been married for a year and are in their honeymoon period. On the wedding anniversary, when Zhao Yue was preparing to give Feng Ying a surprise, he found Feng Ying dead at home.

The police ruled that Feng Ying committed suicide, but Li Yue refused to accept this fact. They were happy and nothing had happened in their family. How could Feng Ying commit suicide without any warning?

So he decided to investigate on his own. After a series of investigations, the cause of Feng Ying's death gradually came to light.

Feng Ying was raped when she was in college. This matter has been deeply buried in her heart, and even her parents don't know about it.

But just a few days ago, a reporter claiming to be from Cutting Edge News contacted her. Tell her that they exposed a vicious rapist a while ago, and the rapist confessed that she was one of the women he had raped.

The reporter hopes that Feng Ying can come forward as a victim and cooperate with them in reporting this news.

Feng Ying naturally refused in panic and begged the reporter not to contact her again, saying that she would not show up in the matter no matter what.

But the reporter did not give up. He would look for her in various ways every day, and even went to her home for the last time.

That experience had already caused Feng Ying psychological problems. If she hadn't met Li Yue, she probably would never have gotten married in her life. But just as she was slowly healing, the deepest scar in her heart was suddenly revealed.

Feng Ying collapsed. She was afraid that people around her would look at her with prejudice after knowing this, and she was even more afraid that Li Yue would no longer love her.

But she didn't dare show it or tell anyone. I just kept it in my heart and endured it silently.

This explosive emotion completely collapsed when I saw the first news report on this rapist on Cutting Edge News.

Feng Ying finally chose to commit suicide.

Li Yue, who finally learned the truth, was in great pain. When the law was unable to sentence the reporter, he chose to avenge his wife himself.

"Brother, can you help me contact them?" Yu Qinghuan finished reading "Revenge" at a glance, and said to Xin: "I want to take this."

"Why did you all agree?" Yu Xin muttered in confusion, but finally took the script hesitantly.

"Who else has your eyes on her?" Yu Qinghuan didn't understand what he meant for a moment, so she asked.

"No one, I just complained casually." Yu Xin didn't want him to know about Cen Feng's affairs. He was afraid that he would think too much, so he didn't tell the truth. He left a hurried message and went out.

The director of "Revenge" is Sun Wu, an evergreen director in the entertainment industry with a very transcendent status. In recent years, he has been old and has rarely made movies. I don’t know why he would take on such an unpopular drama this time.

Yu Xin had never been able to win over Yu Qinghuan, and since "Revenge" was recommended by Cen Feng and Huo Rong together, he contacted Sun Wu.

The two sides contacted each other for a while, and finally, Yu Qinghuan took on "Revenge" for a salary of 24 million.

Shortly after Yu Qinghuan signed the contract for "Revenge", "Life and Death" also came to an end, with a total box office of 6.1 billion, topping the Chinese film box office list.

Liu Jiaan, a person who never posts on Weibo, happily posted three Weibo posts in a row this time, and tagged everyone in the crew group, saying that he would treat everyone to a meal and give everyone a big red envelope.

Actors have very little free time, and it is difficult to get everyone together for a dinner after filming, so Liu Jiaan asked Yu Qinghuan and the others to first confirm their free time and then report to him, and he would coordinate it.

It just so happened that Yu Qinghuan had just finished filming a small climax during this period, so her schedule was not tight. After thinking about it, he took out his phone and called Zhao Qingyuan, wanting to ask him when he could make time so they could go together.

Zhao Qingyuan recently took on a public welfare film about firefighting on the national TV station. When Yu Qinghuan called him, he had just sneaked into the filming site to eat when no one was paying attention.

The next scene he was going to shoot was that a happy and harmonious family was sitting at home eating, when a ruthless fire suddenly fell from the sky.

The props team had already set up the food at the venue in advance, and they were just waiting to test the props and start shooting after they had no problems.

Zhao Qingyuan has a physique that is prone to obesity, and he ate too much recently. I have been ordered by my agent to lose weight recently, so I can't control myself when I see delicious food.

While everyone was busy, I secretly ate bite after bite.

He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but Zhao Qingyuan always felt that after eating, his whole body became hot, as if he was being roasted by fire!

He couldn't help but fan his face with his hands, but as he did so, a thick smoke suddenly wafted over and almost choked him to death.

This prop team is really too dedicated, even the smoke is made so realistic. As he was thinking, he suddenly heard shouting from outside -

"Oh no! It's on fire!"

"Quick! Put out the fire!"

This isn't right. He hasn't even left yet, so why are these people already shouting out their lines in advance?

Zhao Qingyuan scratched his hair in confusion and looked at the chopsticks in his hand. Just as he was about to hurry up and eat a few more bites, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Yu Qinghuan. He quickly pressed the answer button, "Qinghuan,"

"You've seen that Director Liu is going to have a party, right? When do you plan to go?"

"When did you... cough cough," he started coughing because of the thick black smoke before he could finish his sentence.

"What's wrong with you?" Yu Qinghuan asked with concern, "Are you catching a cold?"

"No," Zhao Qingyuan said, "I was just about to shoot a fire scene, and the props team made the smoke too realistic, it choked me." Then he walked out, planning to find a quiet place to have a good chat with Yu Qinghuan.

The moment I held the door handle, I almost jumped up because of the heat.

"Fuck! Why is it so hot!" He hissed, endured the pain, opened the door, and ran out in one breath.

Then, he saw that the people who were busy outside suddenly stopped what they were doing and stared at him in disbelief, and then -

"Teacher Zhao, why are you in there? The props just caught fire!"

"Teacher Zhao, are you burned? Fortunately, we tried the props in advance."

"Teacher Zhao, are you going in there to practice? You are really dedicated."

………………

Zhao Qingyuan: "..."

Is the relationship really on fire?

A group of people hurriedly dragged the confused Zhao Qingyuan into the lounge, checked him from head to toe, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they found no injuries.

Although the fire just now was not big, the actors' bodies are everything and must not be burned by fire. When they found Zhao Qingyuan coming out of the fire, they were almost scared to death.

Zhao Qingyuan didn't hang up the phone, so Yu Qinghuan also heard what happened outside.

"Qing Yuan, I'll give you some ginkgo and walnuts." He sighed helplessly, "You really need to fix your brain." He paused and said in disbelief, "How stupid do you have to be to think a real fire is a pre-drill?"

"That, that's just a coincidence." Zhao Qingyuan tried to save face, "It's not my fault. If it were you, you wouldn't be able to react in time."

Yu Qinghuan was too lazy to listen to his excuses. After she set a time for the dinner, she bought 20 kilograms of walnuts and ginkgo nuts online and sent them to him.

A fire broke out on the set of a national TV station's public welfare film. This was a big deal. The director originally wanted to suppress the news, but then he thought again that it just fit in with their theme of promoting awareness of fire, so he let the news leak out.

No one could have imagined that Zhao Qingyuan would be so stupid that he couldn't even tell the difference between real fire and fake fire, so when the media narrated this incident, they beautified Zhao Qingyuan's image a hundred times. It was said that he was so absorbed in his practice that he didn't even notice the fire on the set. If Yu Qinghuan hadn't called him, he probably wouldn't have known how badly he would have been injured.

Nowadays, any star with a little bit of popularity is more or less stylish, and there are many who find all kinds of excuses to use stand-ins.

Zhao Qingyuan is so famous that he is willing to risk his life to shoot a charity promotional video that doesn't cost much. He is truly a role model in the industry!

After this incident, Zhao Qingyuan's popularity instantly reached its peak. Many people followed his Weibo, liked his posts, and praised him as one of the few positive energy stars in the entertainment industry. Not only that, Yu Qinghuan also became a hot topic because of a phone call.

There were so many people present, but no one knew Zhao Qingyuan was inside. Only Yu Qinghuan saved Zhao Qingyuan from danger with just one phone call.

This is simply a living koi!

Originally, after the release of "Life and Death Line", because Ye Sheng's ending was too tragic, netizens subconsciously stopped forwarding koi, but after this time, this activity began to continue vigorously on Weibo.

While Yu Qinghuan was filming, she casually checked Weibo and saw that she had appeared in the hot topics again. She exited the app helplessly and sent a message to Huo Qu.

During this period of time, the two of them were separated and busy with their own things. It is very inconvenient to make phone calls, so we basically communicate through text messages.

Every night before going to bed, Yu Qinghuan would send a message to Huo Qu, telling him what had happened throughout the day and urging him to go to bed.

He accidentally discovered a few days ago that Huo Qu would not go to bed until he heard from him every day. So no matter how busy Yu Qinghuan was filming, she would always find time to contact Huo Qu before nine o'clock to prevent him from waiting foolishly.

Huo Qu replied almost immediately, his words were full of happiness, and he kept talking to Yu Qinghuan while sticking to her. If Yu Qinghuan hadn't hardened her heart and urged him, he probably wouldn't have gone to bed.

Yu Qinghuan had another scene to perform, so she needed to wait outside the set. He read through all the messages Huo Qu had sent him in the past few days, and finally understood how Huo Qu felt when he lost his phone.

At that time, when he realized that all the messages they had ever communicated with were gone, although he felt regretful, he was not as sad as Huo Qu.

However, when he was truly separated from Huo Qu this time and could only rely on reading the messages he sent over and over again every day to ease his longing, he finally realized the meaning of these text messages.

After carefully backing up all the information, Yu Qinghuan put down his phone.

The next morning, as Yu Qinghuan did not have any scenes to watch, he did not wait outside the set for the first time, but followed Yu Xin to the parking lot.

"Can you do it?" Before getting in the car, Yu Xin looked at him with a worried look on his face, "Qing Huan, you don't need to learn how to drive, really. Anyway, you are my only artist, and I will definitely be there whenever I call. It's no big deal to send one more Huo Qu."

"It's okay," Yu Qinghuan stretched out his hand and opened the door on the driver's side, his expression relatively calm, "It's just driving a car, there's no way I can't learn it, don't worry, brother."

"You really are..." Yu Xin sighed, thought about it, and finally reached out to hold his arm before he sat down, and said, "Tell me if you can't stand it."

Yu Qinghuan nodded, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and sat in the driver's seat.

After his salary increased, Yu Xin successfully changed his car. Now he no longer drives that second-hand Audi, but a brand new Mercedes-Benz.

Although the seat was comfortable and ergonomically designed, Yu Qinghuan felt uncomfortable. His body was shaking uncontrollably, the color on his face began to fade, and even his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

"Qinghuan." Yu Xin called him worriedly.

Yu Qinghuan gritted his teeth and did not answer.

Yu Xin was so anxious that he was running around in circles, but he didn't dare to reach out and pull him out rashly. He could only stand by and worry.

After finally overcoming the psychological barrier, Yu Qinghuan sat in the driver's seat for the first time in two lives and wanted to stay longer. But it was impossible. Every second at this moment became extremely difficult. His breathing was rapid and he could hardly breathe.

"Okay, okay, I'm not afraid anymore." Yu Xin finally couldn't help himself, and stretched out his hand to pull him out, patting his back to comfort him, "You are not in the car anymore, Qinghuan is not afraid anymore."

Yu Qinghuan curled up against him, her body shaking constantly. No matter what Yu Xin said, he didn't recover.

Yu Xin was afraid that something might go wrong if he continued like this, and he didn't know what to do. After hesitating for a moment, he took out his phone and called Huo Qu.

Fortunately, Huo Qu answered the phone quickly.

"Huo Qu, come and talk to Qinghuan," Yu Xin turned on the speakerphone and said loudly into the receiver, "Qinghuan wants to hear your voice."

Huo Qu didn't notice anything unusual. Hearing this, he smiled shyly and said to the phone, "Qing Huan, do you miss me? I miss you too, but there are still two days until Saturday."

Huo Qu's voice finally brought back some consciousness to Yu Qinghuan. He took two quick breaths and tried to make his voice sound calmer. "Yeah, I missed you."

But Huo Qu immediately sensed something was wrong. He suddenly stood up and asked anxiously, "Qing Huan, what's wrong with you?"

"No, nothing." Yu Qinghuan gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down. "I just finished filming and I'm a little tired."

"So..." Huo Qu lowered his eyes and responded softly.

Yu Qinghuan only managed to say these two sentences before he could speak no more. He gestured to Yu Xin and collapsed on him. Upon seeing this, Yu Xin quickly picked up the phone and talked to Huo Qu for a long time before he let him hang up.

"Don't push yourself. Your condition is too serious." Yu Xin helped him back to the hotel and frowned, saying, "If you really want to learn how to drive, go see a psychiatrist first."

At this moment, Yu Qinghuan also recovered a lot. Hearing this, he nodded, lowered his eyes and said, "I understand."

Yu Qinghuan definitely couldn't go to lunch in this state, so after Yu Xin had arranged everything for him, he went downstairs to help him pack.

He had been walking for a while when there was a hurried knock on the door. Yu Qinghuan thought that Yu Xin had forgotten to bring the room card, so he walked over with difficulty and opened the door. Unexpectedly, when he looked outside, he was stunned. The person standing outside was actually Huo Qu.

"Why...are you here?"

"Qinghuan, are you sick?" Huo Qu asked instead of answering, reaching out and touching his forehead.

Yu Qinghuan wanted to say no, but she was afraid that if she didn't say it, she would be more worried, so she nodded and said, "Yeah, a little bit, but it doesn't matter."

After a pause, he asked him again: "Why are you here? Is everything okay in the yard?"

Huo Qu shook his head and said, "I came here because you were sick. It doesn't matter if it's lunch time."

He explained it in a halting manner, but Yu Qinghuan understood it immediately. He leaned on Huo Qu, using his strength to support his body, his eyes burning with heat, "Huo Qu, why are you so nice to me?"

Huo Qu was stunned for a moment, then shyly revealed the dimples on his face, blushed and whispered: "I like you."
