Chapter 87

She squatted there and watched the quarrel. When she saw Su Ning, she recognized him and knew his relationship with Mr. Shen. At that time, Yan Lu already had some preliminary ideas in her mind.

If anyone else in the entertainment industry had mentioned this to him, Yan Kai would never agree. But when it was Shen Mingzheng who brought it up, he became hesitant.

He has met so many people in the circle, and Yan Kai knows Mr. Shen's character well.

What's more, He Fan followed behind and also made a firm guarantee.

Many people in the circle know this person's background and situation. Now that he has separated and stood up, his words carry some weight.

Yan Kai thought for a long time, then turned to look at Yan Lu. She was no longer looking at the apricot blossom in her hand, but turned to look at him.

I've never seen her so focused before.

"Lulu," Yan Kai asked her, "Do you really want to go?"

When he asked this question, he actually had the answer in his heart. She was actually interested in being a screenwriter, and even wrote her first script so well. Should I say she is worthy of being his daughter?

Yan Lu nodded, and then said: "I, I want to give it a try."

She blinked and added, "You'll support me, right, Dad?"

She spoke word by word, and her stuttering was no longer so severe. Yan Kai felt as if he had been struck by something. Yan Lu didn't like to talk, and she hadn't called him "Dad" for a long time.

Although Yan Kai still had a lot of concerns, he still took this step, even just for this title.

Another person who was surprised by the development of this matter was Zhu Lan. She was already very satisfied with the breakup with He Fan.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain!

He's father has always hoped to have a good communication with his daughter who has owed him. From his point of view, he absolutely despises people like Han Weirong. He has always wanted to separate the two people in various ways, and he also hopes that He Fan will return home as soon as possible.

But I didn't expect He Fan to take the initiative to go back this time.

The talks between the two sides went well. Apart from the breakup, He Fan also suggested that her family give her some more time.

She will also take the next movie seriously. If it still doesn't work, He Fan will naturally go home.

She is confident this time.

These were all small matters, and Mr. He, who was in a good mood, naturally had no objection. And the small request that He Fan made for Yan Lu was naturally just a small matter of a few words.

He's father also asked her: "Didn't I hear that you were short of money some time ago? Do you want to get some money from home?"

It was easy for the He family to give her a few hundred or eighty million.

He Fan shook his head and said, "No need, I have already negotiated with Mr. Su from Guangying Entertainment."

Cooperation also has a first come first served basis, and Su Ning is very relieved.

Father He naturally did not force it. He seemed to be familiar with the name "Su Ning". After thinking for a while, he said, "The one Shen Mingzheng is going to marry, right? Tsk, when Shen Antang mentioned this, I thought he was crazy and found such an ordinary person for his only grandson. I didn't expect that she turned out to be extraordinary. Sigh, he still has good taste."

He looked at He Fan again and said casually: "When will you find a potential stock like this..."

Perhaps people of this age would pay more or less attention to the marriage and love of their offspring, but after meeting He Fan's eyes, they retreated and smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, no rush, no rush. Oh, I won't mention it."

But He's father's perception of Su Ning, to some extent, also represents the beginning of a change in the impression of the top fame and fortune circles on the two of them.

There are so many different industries and countless wealthy families.

But the entertainment industry is the outermost layer of the world of fame and fortune, or it can be said to be a kind of representative.

During this period, Su Ning and Shen Mingzheng did get to know a lot of people inside and outside the circle, and their social circles obviously became more and more extensive.

After the filming of "Jiushe Xue" was completed, Glory filmed a lot of endorsement commercials during the period when he joined the film crew. Glory also has many endorsements in various industries. The "Imperial Hospital Happy Events" co-produced with Nanjiang TV Station started smoothly, and their cooperation with Orange Film and Television has gradually deepened.

——The new season of Idol Star Chart has started recording, and the famous senior Glory was the special guest.

The two of them have been getting along with Zhu Lan, the giant Buddha who came down from the Shen family head's house. Although there are indeed some unpleasant things, that's how they got over it.

Zhu Lan also felt that the He Fan incident was an excellent result of their cooperation, so when "No Disease" officially started filming, she specially shook hands with Su Ning. Seeing that he seemed to be in a good mood, she also talked to him a lot.

There are three important characters in this movie: the female lead Ji Xue, and the male lead chosen by Shen Mingzheng, Zeng Xiuyuan, a new actor from Yan Kai Studio.

He auditioned on his own and was a contracted actor of Yan Kai Studio. He also played a role in "The Imperial Hospital's Wedding" and appeared in several episodes. He was a drama actor and his acting skills were indeed good. At the age of 25, he looked like a pure and stupid college student and had a lively personality, so He Fan chose him.

There is also an important role of a doctor, and this person is the one chosen by the investor Zhu Lan. She didn't attract much traffic this time, and a stable middle-aged role can't attract much popular traffic.

The person she found was an actor from Hong Kong Island, who was considered a golden supporting actor and had won many awards. His acting skills were naturally impeccable and he was a familiar face in the entertainment industry. Su Ning could not find any fault with him.

The other roles were played by three veteran actors who were originally contracted by Guangying Entertainment. The villains were cast by people from Gaoshan Pictures. Su Ning had a good cooperation with them, and they were able to share their strengths and weaknesses.

Moreover, Su Ning got along well with every company or platform he had worked with before. Even Xie Fangmin, who now has abundant resources, was willing to make a guest appearance for a few minutes after hearing about it, becoming a special guest star in this movie.

Therefore, when it was launched this time, it received a lot of attention.

But Su Ning was looking at the Hong Kong Island performers at the opening ceremony and asked Zhu Lan, who was standing next to him, a question: "Does this mean that the master has reached an agreement with the Hong Kong Island side?"

Shen Mingzheng was aware of the old man's movements. Shen Antang was somewhat suspicious. Now that he was planning to reconcile with Hong Kong Island, there would inevitably be some intermittent cooperation.

Zhu Lan didn't hide it and nodded.

When it comes to matters concerning film and television resources, the Shen family would turn to her first. As expected, she is the old man's confidante. This actor who starred in He Fan's movie is probably the first sentinel.

If it were before, she would not have said so much to Shen Mingzheng and Su Ning. Zhu Lan did not want to participate in the struggle for heirs, even though she was the adopted daughter of the old man and the daughter-in-law of Shen Anlin. Even her two children who were currently studying abroad and in junior high school were also, in a strict sense, reserve heirs.

But she seemed to feel that Su Ning and Shen Mingzheng really had some prospects for making money, more profitable than what she had done before, so she didn't mind talking to them more at this time.

"There will be more cooperation between my family and Hong Kong Island in the future," she said. "Yuedong has suffered a lot of losses recently. The turnaround was too slow and the rate of return was not good. Mr. Sheng was also eager to find other projects and contacted me."

Furthermore, the fact that Glory didn't win the Best New Artist Award has been mentioned over and over again since their second album came out, and it's almost become a meme.

The behind-the-scenes operations of capital have always existed, but it is very embarrassing to expose them in public and be repeatedly criticized.

Zhu Lan looked at Su Ning and said, "If President Su has time, you can pay attention to this matter."

What she meant was that she wanted to persuade Su Ning and Yuedong to try to cooperate again. After all, this is still one of the largest platforms in the circle, and the relationship with the Shen family has always been good.

The film and television cooperation plan with Hong Kong was proposed in accordance with the old man's idea. This time, they chose to cooperate with Yuedong. However, Yuedong only provided investment and some actors, and Hong Kong provided another part of the actors and a part of the team. The overall leadership was still the Shen family.

Many people on Shen Anlin's side wanted to fight for the leadership, but Zhu Lan also reminded Shen Mingzheng at this time.

——The cooperation with Hong Kong Island is something that the family attaches great importance to, and it is also an opportunity to show off in front of my father.

Moreover, unlike those idol dramas produced by Yuedong that are obviously for the purpose of earning traffic money, Hong Kong film and television were once very popular more than ten years ago. There have been many world-famous classic works and many experienced and famous actors, so the quality is online.

It's just that it's not as good as before. The entertainment industry changes so quickly that it's inevitable that some of it is outdated, but it still has influence.

Hong Kong Island has some specialties, such as crime dramas and gangster films.

The Shen family didn't like small fights, so they immediately brought in Yuedong and planned to make two police and gangster movies. In particular, they hired the top actors that both sides could find.

Zhu Lan did not keep anything to herself and told Su Ning everything. Besides, she knew that even if she didn't say it, Shen Mingzheng would know it soon, so she might as well do him a favor.

She wanted to test Su Ning's attitude and see if he also wanted to fight for it.

The configuration given this time is already so high, and the family attaches so much importance to it, this project is a hot commodity, and whoever takes it will feel like it’s a godsend.

Su Ning replied: "Ming Zheng and I will consider it."

He acted so calm that Zhu Lan seemed more anxious than him and asked, "Is Mr. Su still thinking about the unpleasant incident with Yuedong? Actually, that award..."

Su Ning shook his head and said, "The Audience Choice Award is a thing of the past. President Zhu, let's look forward to it."

He now has the confidence to say this.

There is not only the Audience Choice Award in this circle, Glory's album even won this year's "Golden Record" award, which was won by many heavyweight singers.

Compared with the previous ones, the audience's choice of the Newcomer Award at that time was naturally nothing.

According to the group's current development trend, if they can't win the Best Group Award in this year's Audience Choice Awards, they will probably be criticized by everyone for their involvement.

This is the real word of mouth.

Su Ning had no control over how Mr. Shen arranged the internal affairs of the Shen family, or what everyone was thinking. Their philosophy was just like the company's theme this year - rooting in the work.

The example of Glory proves that in this circle, it is the work that speaks in the end.

Moreover, before Zhu Lan said this, Shen Mingzheng had actually received the news. He also knew that Hong Kong Island still preferred Shen Anlin's heir reserve for the big cooperation, and did not consider him and Su Ning much.

After all, many of their works have not yet been released, and they are far less famous than the other. They both need to produce enough achievements before they can really gain a foothold.

Zhu Lan sighed and said, "You guys have to go meet the people from Hong Kong Island, right?"

The easing of relations between the Shen family and the Hong Kong branch is a big deal. Since the filming of "No Disease" started, it is obvious that many celebrities there have started to come here.

Not long after, the Shen family held a large banquet, which was also held on the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The full moon brings family reunion, which symbolizes harmony and beauty.

This was Su Ning's first time to visit the Shen family in the capital. He said that the old man had specifically asked for him, so he and Shen Mingzheng went together.

But the main characters of this banquet were people from Hong Kong Island, and the two of them just went there to join in the fun and get to know some people.

Shen Mingzheng originally didn't want Su Ning to worry too much about the Shen family's stall, but Zhu Lan came to him directly and told him about it. Since Su Ning knew about this, he naturally didn't want to let him be alone.

And he had good reasons.

"How can I let you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival alone?"

In the past six months, no matter what festival it was, the two of them had never been apart.

Although it was the Shen family's moon-viewing dinner, there were too many messy relatives and friends in the big family. Many of them were not directly involved in the affairs of the entertainment industry and had few interactions with Su Ning. However, when he stood next to Shen Mingzheng, many people knew him, called his name, and came over to shake his hand politely.

Some people are more important, and Shen Mingzheng would tell Su Ning who they are in his ear, and Su Ning would remember them.

Nowadays, these people no longer dare to look down on these two.

The Shen family does have a lot of young people, including many talented young people, but after the banquet started, most of them crowded in the middle because their old man was there, and they wanted to get close to the person in power in Hong Kong, Shen Zhaolan, and discuss the so-called big cooperation projects. They all wanted to get involved.

Zhu Lan also went to the front to say hello, but she looked left and right and didn't see Shen Mingzheng and the others. She didn't know where they had gone.

These two people are really unique in the Shen family.

Shen Mingzheng and Su Ning really didn't like this kind of flattering occasion. Zhu Lan searched for a long time before she found the two of them huddled together at a small dining table at the edge, talking about something.

No one comes here to eat, nor does anyone care about the true meaning of the so-called "Mid-Autumn Festival" of reunion and beauty.

But these two seem to be.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner, so naturally, there are moon cakes on the table, very delicately placed on the plate. Shen Mingzheng cut a small piece, and then naturally fed it to Su Ning, then looked at him and asked: "Is this delicious?"

"Well, it's OK. The filling is made of five nuts," Su Ning chewed, "It's a little cold."

The baked nut filling was no longer crispy when it cooled down, and it was a bit greasy. Su Ning had to drink several sips of water before he could get it down.

Shen Mingzheng smiled: "Then let's find a chance to go first, and I'll take you to eat the freshly cooked food."

Su Ning: "Is it okay to leave halfway?"

"It's okay," Shen Mingzheng said, "We've met everyone we need to meet, and we've already done our best to be polite. Besides, they may not notice us even if we leave."

Su Ning thought about it and felt that it made sense.

This wasn't the first time he attended a dinner like this, so it wasn't surprising that he found an excuse to leave.

Zhu Lan: ...

Seeing this scene, she felt a little toothache.
