Lu Yuan was surprised by a call from Li Qi, the director of "Youth".

After the call, he immediately asked Wu Tingting to get the contract, and then he carefully read the issue of compensation.

Then……

Is this six million?

Six million!

Become rich!

When I saw the words "six million", I instantly felt like a pie in the sky fell right in front of me.

At this moment he was so excited that he couldn't breathe!

I picked up six million for free without stealing, cheating, robbing or deceiving anyone!

Um……

With these six million, I won't have to work so hard to make money anymore. Even if I save the money and earn interest, I can live a comfortable life every day. Or I can go back to my hometown and buy a few shops. I estimate that the housing prices in China will go up now, so I can live a good life in the future even if I rely on rent!

Being a landlord seems to be pretty good.

He even started to imagine what he would do with the six million dollars after he had it.

This is a kind of **.

An irresistible temptation for him.

However, when he calmed down, he closed his eyes.

Should he take the money?

He heard Li Qi's frustration and despair in the previous phone call.

A director suddenly announced that he would not shoot the movie he had already prepared.

Then he must have his own difficulties.

Six million ** is certainly important. If he had just traveled through time, Lu Yuan would have taken it without saying anything. If Li Qi hadn't said anything to him and hadn't shown this attitude, then he would have asked Li Qi for compensation...

But now...

He shook his head.

Although he was not a saint, he realized that it was not very rational for him to take the money in this way.

Lu Yuan understood Li Qi's attitude.

Then Lu Yuan made a decision in his mind.

"Director Li..."

"What's wrong, Ayuan?"

"No need to write the IOU."

"ah?"

"Director Li, I don't know why you don't want to film Youth. Maybe you have your own difficulties and I can't ask. I don't need compensation. I'm not so short of money for the time being... Well, just consider it as making a friend like you."

After saying this, Lu Yuan suddenly felt an unusual pain in his heart, as if he was pushing money away.

It's like cutting flesh from one's own body.

He wanted to go back on his word.

But in the end he held back.

"Ayuan, you...you..." Li Qi was so moved on the other end of the phone that he took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, but since both parties have signed the contract, both parties must abide by this agreement. You don't need me to write an IOU because you trust me. I am very moved. But I will always remember this compensation. When I earn the money myself, I will give it to you."

"Then why did you give up filming?"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to say it now, but I don't like making youth movies... I lied to you before. Although I prepared a lot for this movie, I don't like it."

"So what movies do you like?"

"I... Never mind. Maybe I'm really not qualified. I suddenly find it ridiculous to say what I like now."

"Although I don't know what caused you to become like this, I think if it's something you really like, you must stick to it... After all, it's not good to give up halfway."

"I……"

"Well, have you heard the song Salted Fish?"

“No.”

"Oh, open your phone and search for this song. It seems that this song has been uploaded to the Internet by a netizen."

“Which singer sang this?”

"For now, I'm singing."

“…”

“No matter which video website you find this song on, remember to like it.”

“…”

Standing under the small bridge on the other end of the phone, Li Qi looked up at the moon in the sky, then looked at the rippling river surface.

He actually thought deeply about it for a very long time.

He even felt that if he really didn't feel suited to being a director, he might as well just change careers.

After all, after persisting for so many years, it has always been tepid, and finally there is a representative work, but it was revealed that it was manipulated by the family...

When a person has lost his self-confidence, what else can he do?

He can't do anything well.

So he despaired.

Just when he really decided to give up, Lu Yuan called him.

The call was short.

What Lu Yuan said didn't make any great sense, let alone any profound meaning. It sounded very plain, without any adjectives, and mixed with a low-level pretentious taste. But at this moment, he felt warm in his heart...

"Salted fish?"

He opened his phone and searched for the word "salted fish".

Then a series of search video and song links popped up.

The song "Xianyu" is very popular on the Internet. Someone has even edited it and posted it on a music website. Of course, the copyright still belongs to Lu Yuan.

He clicked on a video at random.

He saw Lu Yuan holding a guitar and singing the song "Salted Fish"...

He listened over and over again.

This song seems to be an invisible encouragement.

At this moment, Li Qi seemed to see a ray of light in the darkness. That light was so warm and so beautiful.

At this moment, he felt that he was not someone completely abandoned by this world.

"Even if a salted fish turns over, it is still a salted fish and loses sincerely.

At least in the end I still have the self-esteem of a salted fish that has not rotted..."

I will persevere!

I will stick to it!

I can do it!

He closed his eyes.

After listening to the song, he prepared to save the video. When saving it, he accidentally saw the hot search video on the video website...

Then his eyes widened.

All five of the most clicked headlines have Lu Yuan's name on them.

As for the sixth place...

Well, although Lu Yuan is not in the title of the sixth place, it is actually a video of Lu Yuan giving a lecture at Yanying...

The first six are all Lu Yuan.

At this moment Li Qi suddenly fell into deep thought.

Are you sure you want to use this song to encourage me instead of just showing off in front of me?

…

"Damn it, I knew this guy was using the trick of suppressing first and then praising! Xiao Zhang, in the next few months, you should find a way to send someone to monitor Lu Yuanzhi and see what tricks he wants to play! If he wants to play, I will play with him!"

"Boss Zheng, it's not that exaggerated. He is just making headlines temporarily!"

"To be on the headlines temporarily? Haha."

"Boss Zheng, am I wrong? I don't think Lu Yuan is worth your worry."

"Not worth worrying about? Haha, just open a web page, any news page!"

"this……"

After finishing his cigarette, Zheng Tianlong stared towards the distant direction of Hengdian.

His expression gradually turned cold.

For some reason, he hated Lu Yuan more and more!

This person is simply poisonous!

In fact, Lu Yuan is not only a hot topic on major video websites, but also on Tieba, Weibo, and the headlines of some portal websites.

It seemed that Lu Yuan was like a hateful virus, exploding on the Internet in an instant!

Don't you believe it?

You open your browser...

The top trending search on the browser is "Lu Yuan creates another classic!"

You open the music software...

The music software is full of songs like "Love Until Death", "Lilac", and "Old Boy".

Open the video software?

Not to mention, basically all the gossips about Lu Yuan singing and Lu Yuan doing advertisements are on the charts.

Do you want to see a movie?

Well, the first place on the word-of-mouth list of Tomato.com is "Buried", which is very eye-catching and you can't help but see it even if you don't want to.

You want to be classy and listen to some concert piano music?

Sorry, nowadays you can hear "Für Elise" and "Lullaby" in any concert...

At this moment, it seems that only the TV series has not been eroded by the bastard Lu Yuan and is still relatively clean.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zheng Tianlong will be disgusted by Lu Yuan all day tomorrow.

This person!

Can't you just calm down?

…

Lu Yuan doesn’t care how popular or powerful he is on the Internet, and he won’t show off complacently.

After all, these cannot be directly converted into tangible money for him to use.

Going to Yanying to give lectures was something Lu Yuan had always been worried about. Now that this matter was finally over and Li Qi from "Youth" had completely given up, Lu Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling that the heavy burden on his shoulders was instantly lifted.

In fact, it’s better to keep everything simple.

After returning to Hengdian, Lu Yuan immediately started filming the second half of "The Wanderer".

Lu Yuan planned to finish filming and editing "The Wanderer" before December 25th, so that he could return to his hometown before the New Year to have a good New Year.

It has been a while since Lu Yuan came to this world, and he found that he really didn't know what the Chinese New Year was like.

Well, before the Chinese New Year, we have to prepare some New Year goods. Now that we are making money, we must be more generous with the goods.

By the way, no matter whether I will be in the entertainment industry in the future, I can’t miss gifts from some people.

For example, Zheng Jianguo, Zheng Guolong, Chen Guanxiong and others...

Oh, and there’s Wang Yaohua from Tianhe Cinemas…

Forget it, let Wang Jinxue deliver this gift for Wang Yaohua?

No, I still have to go visit him in person. Although Wang Jinxue and I are friends, friends are friends, and other relationships still need to be distinguished. After all, Brother Wang is a nice person.

etc!

Why does something feel wrong?

Why does it feel weird?

Is there something wrong?

It seems not.

Forget it, I won’t think about it. It’s too early to think about these things. Let’s just focus on filming “The Wanderer” first and talk about it after it’s finished.

Lu Yuan nodded.

…

On the evening of the third day, the sun set.

Crew.

"Card!"

"Not bad, Ayuan, you're in great form today!"

"Haha, it's OK, but I'm not satisfied with a few details!"

"That's great. Even veteran actors are not as good as you. By the way, it seems that Old Lu wants to see you. He has been waiting outside the crew for more than an hour."

"Looking for me? Didn't he pass the audition for the TV series and was ready to shoot? Why did he suddenly come back?"

"I don't know...just go and have a look."

"Okay, I'll go take a look."

After Lu Yuan removed her makeup and walked out of the crew, she saw Lu Yihong standing alone under the big locust tree outside the crew, walking back and forth. He seemed to be hesitating about something and looked quite helpless.

"Old Lu, what's wrong? Aren't you in Xiangxi?"

"Um, Ayuan... I passed the audition for "The Qin Empire", but my role hasn't started yet... Ahem... Mr. Lu, are you doing well lately?"

"I'm fine, what's wrong?"

"Director Zhou said he wanted to meet you..."

"To see me?"

"Yes, he wanted to ask you to write a song for him, but he is not familiar with you and can't get in touch with you for the time being... I happened to have something to do and came back, so he asked me to ask you..."

"Invite a song?"

"Yes, in addition to inviting you to sing, I also want to ask you if you are interested in playing the role of Prince Fusu..."

"????"
