Chapter 50 Something Happened
Xu Xu is completely different from his brother in that he appears cold on the outside but is passionate on the inside. When I read the script, I thought this character was a very likable one.
Fang Xin ignored his words and chose to listen to Xu Xu without looking at him.
A few seconds later, I heard, "Do you like my brother?"
The surroundings were not particularly noisy, and the sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough for a few people to hear.
Fang Xin was dissatisfied, "This is a private matter."
Xu Xu looked nonchalant, a completely different person from the last time he saw her accepting an award. "If everyone knows about it, it's still considered a private matter?"
"So what do you want to say?" Fang Xin felt that this person was as unpleasant as his brother, and his words always hit people's sore spots.
Xu Xu looked him up and down, frowning thoughtfully, "It's not like the rumors say... Is my brother's vision that bad?"
It was like he was asking himself, which made Fang Xin a little confused, "What on earth do you want to say......"
The other person raised his lips, and his eyes and eyebrows, which looked like Xu Shi'an, were slightly frivolous. "I mean, my brother has no taste."
These words made people feel very comfortable. He had been suppressed by Xu Shi'an for a long time, so he couldn't help laughing when he heard others praising him and even belittling Xu Shi'an, not to mention that the other person was his cousin.
Just when Fang Xin was feeling complacent and had no intention of listening to what he said, Xu Xu asked something he dared not even think about.
"I have a movie that I need to collaborate on, "Ebb and Flow" directed by Director Lam, are you in?"
Fang Xin paused, his hands unconsciously wanting to pinch something to ease his slightly shocked mood.
He straightened his clothes nervously and said, "Why did you invite me? Since this movie is directed by Director Lin, there must be a lot of people who want to go."
"Of course there are many, but I can recommend that there is a role that must be played by you."
As if thinking of something, he added, "The character of Su Zhongxian is very different from you."
Fang Xin held his head high and chest out, and his little tail seemed to be slightly fluttering as if it could be seen.
Tonight's event was perfectly organized under Lin Hui's arrangement, including the program, speeches and donations. Although Fang Xin did not have much financial resources at the moment, she did her best to show her appreciation.
Therefore, Fang Xin's donation was widely publicized by fans on the Internet. Although many things do not need much publicity, this is a donation, which is the only thing that can bring good words to people.
Xu Xu's proposal lingered in his mind. For him, this was a good opportunity, but as a friend, he felt that this was not right.
The movie that made Lu Ziyan so popular cannot be snatched away just like that. Fang Xin had already made up her mind to refuse it, but then the news about Xu Xu came.
Xuyang: Lu Ziyan also starred in the film, but I think the other role must be played by you.
Fang Xin didn't know how to react after receiving the news. Xu Xu must know that Lu Ziyan and he are friends, otherwise what's the point of saying this.
And tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night. After Fang Xin fell asleep, something on the Internet was quietly fermenting.
Fang Xin was woken up by the alarm and the phone, and opened Weibo with a confused look on her face. It was full of his sexy photos, and it was ranked in the top three on the trending searches.
Naturally, there was a lot of criticism when something like this happened on the Internet. The reason was that Wang Shide took a few photos of him in dishevel. Although he didn't reveal anything key, his expression showed that he was reluctant but willing.
Fang Xin's hands were shaking as he slid up and down. They were all his photos, and the comments under each photo were full of dirty words.
He bit his lower lip and held the phone tightly, not noticing any pain.
The phone vibrated and it showed that it was Lu Ziyan's number. Fang Xin answered the call tremblingly and tried to control herself.
"What's going on? How come there are so many pictures! Were they released by Wang Shide's gang?" Lu Zi spoke angrily and wanted to rush to Wang Shide's company to make a scene.
Fang Xin shook her head and realized that Lu Ziyan was blind. His depression made him speechless. "It was just him at the time. I didn't know... I didn't know anything at the time. I didn't know when the photo was taken..."
Lu Ziyan was silent for a moment. He felt something was wrong when he saw the situation unfold this morning. How could it be released just when Fang Xin was filming "Cold Winter"?
This incident happened before the filming. If they wanted to stop Fang Xin from participating, they should have released the news long ago. Now that the news has been released and photographed by Reuters, it is released again, which means someone wants Fang Xin to suffer greater attacks.
Not only the haters, but also fans of all kinds of dramas will question whether Fang Xin can do a good job. By then, the movie will either have a new actor or a terrible box office. Even several other investors will have to consider whether this movie is worth it and withdraw their investment.
Fang Xin has been in the entertainment industry for so long and has never experienced anything like this. He tried his best to pretend that he was fine in front of Lu Ziyan. Director Chen would probably choose to postpone the filming in the next few days to give him a chance to turn things around.
But she was able to hold on despite receiving concern from her friends. Mo Chai also called her in time to comfort her, because he had not known before that Fang Xin was favored by Wang Shide, so he was extremely angry when he saw the photos on the Internet.
Fang Xin refused all visits from her friends. She didn't want to be seen in this state by others, nor did she want to worry those who cared about her.
He spent the whole day searching for loopholes on the Internet with red eyes. Even if he posted on Weibo that Wang Shide was plotting against him and framing him, netizens would not care about the source of these photos.
She only knows how to attack him, and he is indeed a man who needs to be loved by men.
However, the incident only happened until 10 a.m., and the photos could no longer be found. Chen Xian had already contacted the company to do public relations, asking everyone not to spread photos that would damage the artist's reputation.
Although the situation was under control, his desperate mentality had not recovered much. The dark room enveloped him. He didn't know what time it was, but he knew that the time was long and difficult to pass.
He was startled when he heard the door open. He guessed it was Xiao Huai or Chen Xian. He buried his tired face in his knees and said, "I'm fine. Did the company say how to deal with it?"
Fang Xin only heard the other person's footsteps but not his voice. He waited for a long time before looking up. The person turned on the light, illuminating the entire room.
Xu Shi'an stood under the lamp and looked at him from afar. His coat was covered in dust and still stained with a slight chill. He put his hands in his pockets and his eyes were calm and cold.
"All the things on the Internet have been deleted by Jazz Yuexing, and all those with photos have been blocked."
Fang Xin's rabbit-like eyes were filled with anxiety and worry. He twisted his fingers and said, "Thank you. Do you need me to make a statement next?"
Xu Shi'an slowly walked over and sat on the other side. He glanced at the table full of electronic products and made a guess based on Fang Xin's red eyes.
"This is something your company needs to resolve. Just wait."
He sent a message to his assistant who was still waiting downstairs before putting down his phone. "The crew is still waiting to start work tomorrow. How can you shoot in this state? Every day of delay means that our investment will be less secure."
Fang Xin's voice was a little unclear due to her slight nasal tone. "Director Chen asked me to take a break first, and we will start filming after a few days when the situation is better."
Xu Shian disagreed, "How can we achieve great things if we back down from such a small matter?"
Fang Xin thought to herself that this was true, but Xu Shi'an knew about this.
Although I felt wronged in my heart, I said obediently, "I know, but I need to adjust my mentality now."
"It's obvious that someone did this on purpose. You just act like a shrunken turtle at home and let the person who hurt you do it."
These words were like a bright light that illuminated the foggy road ahead. Fang Xin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
"Brother, you are right. Will this matter affect my filming in the crew?"
Xu Shi'an stood up and glanced down at him, "Attitude determines everything."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left. Fang Xin thought over and over again about the pros and cons of this matter. In fact, sometimes it can be used in the opposite way.
Fang Xin, who finally thought of this, was not very grateful to Xu Shi'an in his heart. Fortunately, Xu Shi'an took the time to come and find him, otherwise he would have been stuck in this fog and unable to get out.
After sending a message to Director Chen, he packed up and prepared to rest. He still had to be in the best condition to film tomorrow.
There was a doorbell ring outside. Fang Xin was puzzled and alert. He moved closer and saw a girl standing outside the door. He asked through the door what she was doing.
The other person put the food in his hand on the door handle and said, "I brought you food, you can't not eat it."
After saying that, he left, with his phone in his hand, sending a message to someone.
Fang Xin was completely confused this time. She thought it was a black fan, but the little girl's innocent smile made her look harmless. Fang Xin somehow opened the door and took the food.
It wasn’t too late, but I hadn’t eaten anything all day so I couldn’t resist seeing food.
He opened it and took a look, and saw that all of them were his favorite dishes. Who would bring him food at this time?
The phone beeped and a message came in. Xu Shian sent a message, "Remember to eat."
Fang Xin felt a pang of sadness in his heart as the memories of the original owner resurfaced. At that time, he wanted to commit suicide but was rescued by Xu Shi'an. Now, he was the one who pulled him out of the quagmire of self-blame.
He finished the takeaway that Xu Shi'an brought him, sat down to rest for a while, and then fell asleep.
He went to film on time the next day, but received a lot of strange looks. Things on the Internet fermented quickly. Although no one said anything in the same crew, there were still some gossips behind his back.
Just after he finished filming his scenes with Lu Ziyan, he heard someone talking in the corner on his way back to the dressing room.
"He actually dared to come to the crew. The company didn't do any PR for him in time after this happened. If it were me, I would hide at home and not go out to see anyone."
"Yeah, you know you'll be laughed at but you still come out, isn't that embarrassing? Hahahaha..."
"I heard that he liked Mr. Xu before, but Mr. Xu didn't like him, so he rushed to find another man?"
Fang Xin stood aside without moving. Xiao Huai beside him couldn't help but rush out to argue, but was stopped by him. He heard the voice gradually fade away before he slowly returned to the dressing room.
Xiao Huai held back her tears of grievance and remained silent until she saw that there was no one in the dressing room.
Fang Xin turned around to comfort her, but her eyes were blurred with tears and her words were unclear. "Don't cry, don't cry, no matter what they say."
Xiao Huai burst into tears, "I just think they are too much! Everyone pushes the wall down, and it hasn't fallen yet! Brother Xin, you are the victim, how can this be justified!"
Fang Xin understood Xiao Huai's feelings because he felt the same way, but he was now the backbone.
"But if we go out and discuss this now, someone with ulterior motives will record it, and the situation might get even worse. When the day comes when they can turn things around, they will shut up."
Fang Xin patted the little girl's head, which was twitching from crying, and said, "Do you believe me?"
Xiao Huai nodded. She really felt sorry for Brother Xin. He had finally made a name for himself, but now people were spreading rumors to suppress him. He was once blackened by the entire Internet because of a Mr. Xu. At that time, he was not famous enough to be known to everyone. Now, Brother Xin is taking advantage of his popularity to do such a thing. He is really too popular and attracts jealousy.
