Chapter 149: Guadai Qingyue sends Xu Qingye to...

Dai Qingyue sent Xu Qingye back to the hotel. Before leaving, he insisted on slipping a card into his hand, saying it was pocket money for him. Xu Qingye, at his age, felt a little mixed about receiving pocket money from his father, but he didn't want to make Dai Qingyue sad, so he had to accept it.

When I returned to the hotel room, Shen Que had already returned and was sitting on the sofa reading a script. He looked up when he heard the door open.

"I found my dad."

Xu Qingye was changing shoes at the entrance and spoke in a very calm tone. Shen Que didn't react much after hearing Xu Qingye's words. He just said "hmm" and congratulated him.

Xu Qingye looked at him suspiciously, then walked to Shen Que, reached out to take the script away, and leaned over to press Shen Que onto the sofa.

"You knew this a long time ago? What role did you play in this?"

Xu Qingye pinched Shen Que's chin and stared into his eyes. Shen Que was too calm, and it was obvious that he had known it for a long time.

"I guessed it. After all, you two look quite similar."

"If you guessed it, that's it. Didn't you tell him anything? He kept praising you today. You must have done something I don't know about, otherwise why would he keep praising you?"

Xu Qingye continued to ask, no one would praise others for no reason.

"It's nothing. He was very hesitant about whether to recognize you. I just advised him to tell you the truth based on my understanding of you." He reached out and grabbed Xu Qingye's hand that was pinching his chin.

"Tell me what you know about me, and I'll see if what you say is right."

Xu Qingye stood up and sat down next to Shen Que. He looked at Shen Que and waited for his next words.

"Say one thing and mean another, be tough on the outside but soft on the inside, act on impulse, be defenseless towards others, and be overly enthusiastic."

Shen Que started talking with a long string of words, and the more Xu Qingye listened the more he felt something was wrong. Why did it sound like he was talking about some nice words?

"Wait, there are no advantages? Why don't you say something I like to hear?"

"In my eyes, these are all your strengths. But I hope you will use your enthusiasm on me, otherwise I will be jealous."

Shen Que reached out and touched Xu Qingye's hair. Xu Qingye's enthusiasm was so charming that he wanted to keep it for himself.

"This is so corny. I'm going to take a shower."

Xu Qingye shook off the goosebumps on his body. It was quite unbearable for Shen Que to do this out of the blue occasionally.

Xu Qingye ran very fast. He soaked himself in hot water, took out his mobile phone and looked at the group photos taken today.

In the photo, Dai Qingyue smiled a little awkwardly, but when their faces were put together, they did look somewhat similar. The direction of their muscles when they smiled was almost the same. Xu Qingye suddenly found it very magical.

In the past, he had been asking for an answer, and when he couldn't give up, this person suddenly appeared in his life.

Xu Qingye waited for a while and posted a message on WeChat Moments.

After Xu Qingye finished posting, Dai Qingyue was the first to like it and also left him a message.

Dai Qingyue: Okay, Ono.

Xu Qingye found Dai Qingyue's message very interesting and couldn't help laughing. It was a happy thing for someone to pick up on his joke in this way.

Most of the others complimented him on how handsome he was, and some also complimented his father on how handsome he was. He said nothing, but just took a photo together. No one doubted their relationship at all.

Ms. Luo Baozhu saw it and immediately chatted with Xu Qingye privately. They naturally knew Xu Qingye's background, so when she suddenly saw him showing off his father, Luo Baozhu was shocked and hurriedly asked for details.

After the chat, Luo Baozhu was really happy for Xu Qingye, and she even said that she would invite Dai Qingyue to have dinner together during the New Year. It suddenly became very formal, and Xu Qingye couldn't refuse, so he could only ask Dai Qingyue for his opinion.

Dai Qingyue: Of course I have to go. Since you two are together, your two families should interact more. Give me his parents' contact information and we can talk privately first.

He didn't care what Xu Hong thought about their relationship. In his opinion, as long as the child liked it, it was fine. Shen Que's parents being so formal made him feel more relieved.

He didn't care whether Xu Qingye liked boys or girls, he just hoped that he could be happy. Of course, he also wanted his child's relationship to be blessed. Now it seems that Shen Que did a really good job, at least he didn't let Xu Qingye be embarrassed by his parents.

The elders got in touch with each other, and Xu Qingye suddenly had the illusion that he was going to get married.

When Xu Qingye came out of the shower, Shen Que was still reading the script. He looked very serious, and the script was densely marked with a lot of content.

Xu Qingye always likes to mention Shen Que's talent, but in fact this is a kind of neglect of his efforts.

"Now that you're done, do you want to take a break?"

"I don't want to sleep yet, why don't you chat with me? I'm a little uncomfortable with being a rich second generation all of a sudden. You've been a rich second generation for more than 20 years, so you can teach me how to be a rich second generation."

"The second generation of rich people have no money, they only have a little pocket money given by their parents. You have much more money than the second generation of rich people, so you don't need to get used to anything."

Shen Que put the script aside and packed it up. For most of the second-generation rich, the term "rich" only sounds good to them. They do not have family power in their hands, but they have slightly more pocket money than ordinary children. Some of them even drive luxury cars but cannot afford to fill up the gas tank.

Xu Qingye's wealth was all earned by himself, so he has full control over it. This makes him better than many second-generation rich people. After all, life is not easy when you have to ask for money.

"Oh, it's too late for Dad to recognize me."

Xu Qingye made a joke and pulled Shen Que aside to talk about his business plan.

"Nightfall" was released, and because the pre-sale box office was very hot, the screening schedule was much better than expected. Xu Qingye invited everyone in the studio to watch it, and he also watched it with Shen Que's parents.

Shen Que's performance in the play was so vivid that Ms. Luo Baozhu couldn't help crying after watching it. However, the reason why she cried was different from others. She said that when she saw Shen Que's mature appearance, she thought about how old she would be when Shen Que really reached that age.

Shen Que in the play is around 36 years old, 9 years older than he actually is. 9 years is indeed a very long time, and it counts as a long time for anyone.

Before the broadcast of "The Dark Knight", there were a lot of negative voices online. Influenced by the previous blogger, many people felt that this was a movie that relied on borderline themes to gain popularity. But after actually watching it, they found that the theme of this drama has nothing to do with homosexuality. It is just a mutual healing between two victims.

After its release, the reputation of "Nightfall" continued to improve, Shen Que's acting skills were also improving, and all kinds of business came to him.

As soon as Shen Que got busy, Xu Qingye also became busy. Not only did he boast about the various accounts, he also had to work hard to collect data. "Nightfall" registered for all three major film awards, hoping to win something.

Although foreign awards sound impressive, apart from a few recognized major awards, domestic awards are generally more recognized.

The ultimate compliment for an actor is the Grand Slam Award.

Of course, the crew didn't have the greed to think that if everyone signed up, they would win. They just cast a wide net. The three major film awards have different emphases, so it's difficult for a movie to win the favor of everyone.

In addition to the three major awards, there are many other second-category awards, and the crews have also registered seriously, and the more awards they can win, the better.

Originally, the box office of art films would not be very high, so naturally they would have to win more awards to make up for it.

Shen Que didn't really care about it, but Xu Qingye had always hoped that he could become a movie emperor, so he could only work towards this goal.

The box office of "Midnight Diaries" was not particularly high. After the initial curiosity, the box office gradually stabilized. Although it was much better than expected, it looked ugly when compared with the data of other movies.

Shen Que's haters seized on the box office issue to attack Shen Que, repeating the same old things over and over again, saying that no matter how good Shen Que's acting is, it's useless if it can't carry the box office.

There were too many comments like this, which had some impact on Shen Que's popularity. Xu Qingye reported them all day long, but these people were like locusts and could not be killed.

Xu Qingye could only buy the navy to hedge against them, and finally suppressed these people a lot.

Unfortunately, we have not found out who bought the navy.

"Hey, Director Xin Yan wrote a post praising Shen Que, and even said that he would let Shen Que be the male lead in his next new film."

Cao Muan was chewing an apple at her workstation when she suddenly rushed to Xu Qingye's office with a notebook in her arms. She had been helping to suppress the navy recently and had been working so hard lately that her eyes were dark. When she saw someone coming out, she immediately felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Besides Director Xin, are there other people in the industry who praised it?"

"Many artists who have worked with Shen Que helped promote the film, and many wrote film reviews, including Zhuang Yang, Jiang Yang, Shen Qing, Zhuang Qibei, etc. They all praised the film in various ways."

Cao Muan listed a series of names, all of whom had worked with Shen Que. When Xu Qingye heard Zhuang Qibei's name, he frowned. He really disliked this person. Others probably praised Shen Que sincerely, but he praised Shen Que mostly to gain popularity.

"That should be enough. No need to continue to buy trolls. Just write a post praising Shen Que's good relationships, and the matter will be almost over. When Shen Que wins the award, all these people's comments will be just jealousy."

Xu Qingye calculated the investment and found that it was basically enough. If the navy bought more, it would lose money.

"Is it true that you said you wanted to open an artist studio? Can I recommend someone?"

After talking about work, Cao Muan sat down opposite Xu Qingye. He had mentioned in the group about opening an artist studio, but because no one had thought of anything specific yet, he didn't go into the topic in depth. Unexpectedly, Cao Muan was still interested in it.

Just thinking about Cao Muan's physique gave Xu Qingye a headache.

"Who are you following again?"

"No, no, I'm not a fan. I don't chase stars anymore. I just love my work, so I just observed carefully."

Cao Muan quickly waved her hands. She didn't want Xu Qingye to miss out on a good opportunity because of his prejudice.
