Chapter 25 I'm busy, but you can try

Pei Lang's dry smile turned into a bitter smile in Su Jia's ears. After letting Pei Lang go, he patted his shoulder to encourage him. "Come on, since you are so unhappy, I will reluctantly use my salary to treat you to a meal. But hurry up, the boss has something waiting for me to deal with."

Pei Lang held the folding fan and tapped Su Jia's head gently. "Who told you that I'm unhappy?"

"You've been brushed off by Director Jin, and you can still be happy?"

"Who told you that Director Jin rejected me?" Pei Lang's calm face finally showed a smile. Su Jia was stunned, staring with wide eyes and looking closer, looking left and right, but he couldn't tell that Pei Lang was joking. Seeing that he finally believed him a little, Pei Lang didn't beat around the bush. "Director Jin has decided to give this role to me."

"What!?" Su Jia was shocked. "Are you serious? Director Jin has really decided on the role?"

"Hmm~" Pei Lang was a little arrogant at this moment. He stepped out of the lounge first and prepared to leave. Su Jia followed closely behind him and kept chattering.

"It's actually been confirmed. Pei Lang, how did you get Director Jin to do it?"

"Did you use some magic? That's Director Jin. Many people in the entertainment industry have tried for this role. In other words, you defeated most of the actors in the entertainment industry today and were chosen by Director Jin!"

Su Jia was like a top fan, praising excitedly.

"That's not the case. Maybe I just fit the role. There's no such thing as winning or losing." Everyone has a different acting style. Pei Lang was chosen only because of his martial arts skills and acting skills.

This acting skill was honed over many years.

Su Jia was so excited that he ignored Pei Lang Qianxun's words. He called Yan Han to tell him the good news, but Yan Han didn't seem to show any surprise or joy.

How could he be happy? He deliberately gave Pei Lang a difficult question, so that he would give up and become a good little fox in his captivity. Who knew that this little fox was smarter than he thought.

Being selected means that the little fox will go out to film. Not only will he be exposed to the public, but he won't be able to see her. Who will give him a massage to help him sleep in the future? However, the words have been said, and he can't take them back. Yan Han is depressed.

Before Pei Lang met Su Jia, Director Jin called Yan Han and praised him for recommending him a good candidate. Therefore, Yan Han was not surprised when Su Jia called to announce the good news.

After Su Jia sent Pei Lang to the villa, he went back to the company.

After filming, there may not be much time to compose songs. Pei Lang posted a status on the platform, saying that he was not feeling well and his future creations would be updated slowly, but he would not stop.

It's a big step. A bunch of boys and girls in the comment section are concerned about me, saying that I am old and should rest well, have regular physical examinations, eat regularly, etc.

Facing this group of warm people, Pei Lang suddenly felt that he had deceived them and felt a little guilty. However, there was nothing he could do. Things had already started and there was no turning back. Instead of doing this, he might as well release a few more songs to make them happy.

Pei Lang spent the entire afternoon creating in his room, and only had dinner together when Yan Han came back in the evening.

Pei Lang was in a good mood, but he could clearly sense that Yan Han was unhappy. The little man on his shoulder looked reluctant to leave, and Pei Lang had an illusion...

Is he reluctant to leave me?

Pei Lang quickly rejected this idea.

They were friends, but not really. They were husband and wife… not even that. At most, they were partners. How could they be reluctant to part? Pei Lang felt that he and Yan Han were destined not to have much affection. In the original novel, they never liked each other, and it was even more impossible for him to travel through time.

After all, in his mind, he is a very upright man.

Yan Han ate little tonight, and as usual, he didn't say a word. He went upstairs directly after eating, and said something before leaving. "Come to my study after dinner."

Pei Lang hadn't eaten enough yet. Yan Han said so, so he couldn't keep anyone waiting any longer. He ate something else and walked upstairs. The door of the study was not closed, so Pei Lang knocked and walked in. "Mr. Yan."

"Congratulations." Yan Han lowered his head to organize the documents without raising his eyes, and a cold aura emanated from his body.

"Thank you Mr. Yan for helping me."

Yan Han regretted it.

"I've arranged an agent and an assistant for you. They will help you negotiate your salary. Take a look at the contract when the time comes and sign it if there's no problem." Although he regretted it, since Pei Lang wanted to act, Yan Han couldn't bear to see him isolated and helpless in the entertainment industry, so he arranged someone for him.

Pei Lang had such bad relationships with people before, so he would definitely have troubles if he were alone.

"Okay." Pei Lang nodded obediently and looked down at Yan Han in confusion.

Mr. Yan offered to help me?

"I'm just lending it to you. You have to pay it back. You can decide on their wages, and it will be deducted from your film pay." Yan Han explained with a cold face, seeming to be trying to cover up his mistake.

"It's my duty. Mr. Yan has helped me enough. I will act well after joining the crew and will not let you and Director Jin down. I will bring honor to you."

"This drama has been in preparation for a long time. The male and female lead roles are already being filmed. The second male lead has not been decided yet so we are still looking for one. There is not much time left for you. You will probably join the crew after signing the contract. You can find an assistant or agent if you have any questions."

"If they can't solve it, can we find Mr. Yan?" Pei Lang felt that he was being too demanding. Yan Han had helped him a lot, but he still said such things. However, he saw that Yan Han always had a stern face and stared at the little fox. He was not as lively as before. Pei Lang just wanted to tease him and make him feel more lively.

Sure enough, after hearing this, the little man on the shoulder jumped up and pounced on the little fox, hugging and caressing it.

Yan Han glanced at Pei Lang nonchalantly. "I'm busy, but you can try."

This was considered an agreement. Pei Lang raised his eyelids and smiled without saying anything. Yan Han gave Pei Lang the information of the male and female actors and asked him to take a good look. It would never hurt to know more about people in the entertainment industry.

The next day, the so-called agent and assistant called and got to know each other. Pei Lang organized a group, and the three of them chatted enthusiastically in the group without any airs. The three of them were of similar age and had a lot of common topics, so they were able to chat well.

Afterwards, the agent negotiated the contract and asked Pei Lang to meet him to review the contract before signing. Because of Yan Han's relationship, the contract was fine. The pay was already high for Pei Lang now, and there was nothing that needed to be modified, so Pei Lang signed.

The makeup, hair, clothes, etc. of the male second role had already been drawn, and the only thing missing was an actor. After the actor was confirmed, some modifications would be made based on the actor's appearance, which didn't take much time. As for the costumes, because the height and weight of the male second actor were unknown, only Pei Lang's costumes were left to be made. The production team was very capable, and they only made the costumes for one person, and they could catch up if they made them while filming.

The crew said that he could join the crew in half a month, and gave Pei Lang a complete script for him to read first. During this period, he was taken to take a set of makeup photos. The character's name is Wen Yan. In the early stage, he is a gentle and elegant doctor in the rivers and lakes, and in the later stage, he becomes a black and crazy leader of the demon sect. The makeup photos are one black picture and one picture of the doctor.

This set of pictures was released on the official Weibo account and sparked a lot of discussion.

Most of the comments praised the casting. Fans of the original novel are satisfied, and so are casual fans. The two photos show enough eye drama. The young master after turning evil no longer has seductive clothes or exaggerated smoky makeup, and the character's personality is revealed with just one look and expression.

The actor has a handsome face and good performance, so naturally there are many people praising him. This face is unfamiliar and familiar, so many people thought he was a newcomer, but when they saw the actor's name @ed on the official blog, they were confused and horrified. The netizens who had just praised him immediately rushed out with a large number of angry curses.

[——Pei Lang!? Is this the Pei Lang I know?]

[——You know what, he really looks like Pei Lang, but he’s better looking than before. Are the crew blind to cast him to play my pitiful and lovable Wen Yan husband!?]

[——Maybe she hooked up with that rich guy and brought money into the group! ! Wuwuwu~~ My gentle face is going to be ruined.]

[——I do believe in the director’s vision. You can question Pei Lang’s acting skills, but you can’t question the director’s casting standards. He’s Director Jin. Who can get someone into Director Jin’s crew?]

[——Pei Lang has been quiet for a while, has the Internet forgotten about him? You don’t even remember how he seduced your brother’s boyfriend? The vile things he did, I’m about to vomit my bile when I think about it now.]

[——Please change the actor, crew, and save our eyes. If I turn on the TV and see him, I would rather be born blind. If I am guilty, please punish me according to the law instead of letting him ruin my favorite character.]

[——Fuck! I thought this guy was banned, but now he ruins the original novel and the characters as soon as he comes out. Damn it!! Are there any lawyers here? Is there any law to protect novel characters? If there is, I will sue him until he loses everything! Characters also have human rights and reputations!!]

[——My brother is so pitiful. He was tricked into becoming the male lead. Such a good play is going to be ruined by this Pei Lang. My brother is so miserable.]

[——The guy above, my goddess, when I think about this jerk having a fight with a girl like me, I want to dig his eyes out!]

Pei Lang read these comments, his heart as calm as still water, without a single ripple. He had anticipated such a situation a long time ago, and he believed that this was just the beginning.

Of course, there are occasionally a few "unsound" comments among the negative reviews.

[——Didn’t you realize that Pei Lang’s role was well interpreted? His eye acting was great. (Don’t criticize me for being weak and pitiful…)]

[——Yeah, I think it’s quite consistent with the original work, and didn’t you guys just praise it? Anyway, I’m looking forward to it. You guys are so excited just by the makeup photos. Maybe he can really act. Otherwise, why would Director Jin take so long to choose him?]

[——I don’t believe Pei Lang, but I believe Director Jin. Director Jin’s interpretation of the work is obvious to all. Even if Pei Lang is a piece of scrap metal, he can be acceptable under Director Jin’s training. What’s more, the male and female protagonists are both good actors. So many people can’t lead a loser? Come on, Pei Lang. If you can act well, I will be your fan for the rest of my life. No matter how rotten you are, you can shine like gold in my eyes!! *]

"Pfft——" Pei Lang couldn't help but sneer when he saw this comment, and almost spit out his milk tea. This netizen was really too cute.

"Brother Lang, what's wrong?" In the milk tea room, Pei Lang and Lu Lu sat opposite each other, each with a cup of milk tea, and there were a few cakes in the middle of the table.

Lu Lu was Pei Lang's assistant. In order to make work go smoothly in the future, they got to know each other better and increased their tacit understanding, so they made an appointment to go shopping.

"Nothing much, I just saw an interesting comment. By the way, is there anything else delicious? Please give me more recommendations." Pei Lang took a sip of milk tea and stared at Lu Lu with blinking eyes.

Milk tea, hmm~ This thing only became popular when Pei Lang was in junior high school, but his father was very strict at that time, so he had only had it a few times in his life. Today, Lu Lu took him to buy a cup, and it tasted very good, he liked it.
