Miracle Nikki.
If he remembered correctly, it was a dress-up game where you paid to raise a daughter, and the clothes in it were all very beautifully designed. There seemed to be a new version of Shining Nikki out now.
Wen Xingze really doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with boys playing Miracle Nikki. If Chi Yan plays it - imagine the scene, it would actually be a bit cute.
He had downloaded it himself and hadn't deleted it yet, but he didn't log in often. There were several times when even a seasoned poor person like Wen Xingze was nearly scammed out of money, but luckily his bank card balance kept him sober.
“…”
Wen Xingze's thoughts quickly shifted from Miracle Nikki to other places.
It’s hard to believe that the person standing next to him is Chi Yan.
Wen Xingze would go to the cinema for every one of Chi Yan's films, then save up money to buy the videotapes. He even bought the second-hand TV at home for this purpose.
In the narrow and dim basement, Wen Xingze was reluctant to turn on the lights, and just watched the frames of the images pass by in the darkness.
He would interpret Chi Yan's body language, try to understand his eyes and emotions, and like a skilled detective, try to restore a complete Chi Yan from clues.
Wen Xingze's feelings towards Chi Yan were complex: he envied his talent, was jealous, and had a bit of a competitive streak and a reluctance to admit defeat. Of course, the main feeling was affection.
Chi Yan is his favorite actor.
The elevator descended silently.
Shengtian Entertainment's cleaners must really love their jobs; the elevator car's walls are so shiny they're practically mirror-proof. Wen Xingze stared at Chi Yan's reflection across from him. Perhaps his gaze had lingered too long, and the man turned his head and lowered his gaze.
Their eyes met in the mirror.
Suddenly, Chi Yan frowned slightly.
"Have we met somewhere before?"
Very rarely, he took the initiative to speak again.
Chi Yan's voice is just like him, low and cold, with no emotion in his voice, like holding frost and snow in his arms.
If Chi Yan hadn't said it, this sentence would have sounded like a clumsy pick-up line.
"Yeah?"
Wen Xingze had a problem: the more focused he was, the more he couldn't control his mouth. Almost without thinking, he said, "I've played... Miracle Nikki, too. I might have seen it in the matching arena. My profile picture is my ID photo."
"If we're in the same zone, we can add each other as friends—" Send each other energy or something. Wen Xingze paused in his wits' end.
“…”
Chi Yan's eyes froze and the corners of his lips curled up.
He showed an expression that seemed to be enduring something. Then he turned halfway, with his back to Wen Xingze.
Wen Xingze's words came to an abrupt end.
That's it. I shouldn't have said anything more.
Let me mention Miracle Nikki again, he is a dog.
The elevator went down from the 20th floor to the basement floor in a silent atmosphere.
The elevator door opened, and just as Wen Xingze was about to rush out to escape this embarrassment, Chi Yan suddenly said:
"OK."
Wen Xingze was about to take a step forward when he turned around with a confused look in his eyes: "......?"
"Add friend."
Chi Yan cherishes words like gold.
Without saying a word, he flipped the screen of his phone and showed the QR code to Wen Xingze.
Wen Xingze was confused. Although he didn't understand what Chi Yan was going to do, he subconsciously opened WeChat to scan.
Twenty seconds later.
Wen Xingze pondered for a long time before politely saying, "...what you showed seemed to be a payment code."
One minute later.
After finally getting through the most embarrassing minute of his life, Wen Xingze walked out of the elevator and the next second, the door closed behind him, carrying Chi Yan, who didn't have time to get out, back to the top floor.
Wen Xingze thought of the fat man blocking the door: "..." Forget it, he should have a way.
In the elevator.
Chi Yan got off the elevator on the 20th floor. He frowned and made a phone call.
“Brother, no, uncle,” partner Lin Binlin was about to cry, “If you don’t come back to the meeting, I’m going to sell myself to the board of directors.”
Chi Yan went straight to the point and asked, "Did the company sign any new people recently?"
Lin Binlin: "Newcomer? Oh, I just recently decided to acquire a small company. Their company is quite unusual, with only one artist."
Chi Yan: "What's your name?"
"Who remembers then?" Lin Binlin scratched his head.
Someone who looked like a secretary whispered, "Is his name Wen Xingze? He's a very good-looking kid."
Wen Xingze.
The speculation was confirmed.
Chi Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Lin Binlin: "Oh yes, the name is quite nice, so when will you come back to have a..." meeting.
Click.
The call was cut off on the other end.
"Fuck!" Lin Binlin was so angry that he gave the phone the middle finger.
Wen Xingze wandered around the parking lot, unable to find his bike for a long time, the scene in the elevator still playing in his mind.
It's embarrassing overall, but...
He actually added Chi Yan’s WeChat. Is this true?
"I've been verified as your friend, now we can start chatting."
A new chat box appeared in the WeChat message list, and the other party's username was just 'y'. Wen Xingze couldn't help but open it to take a look, then quit WeChat, reopen it, and repeat the process.
And at this time, the Muse Empire.
Kuma Kuma: Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Wake up!
[Strawberry Pudding: As an elderly mother, I personally think premature love is not good. Although the other party is very handsome, I do not agree with this marriage.]
Douglas: Puppy love? First, we need to clarify the definition of puppy love. Your Majesty, this can't be considered 'love'; at most, it's a bit of 'liking'. There's a significant difference in hormone levels between a fan's liking for an idol and being in love.
[Bizun Xia: Damn dragon clan! ]
Now the main task is only half completed. Because of the emoticon package that was widely circulated in the circle of friends last night, Zaizai's popularity value has successfully increased from '8' to the current '1072'.
Although in the eyes of parents, this popularity value is still too low, after all, their king is so cute and lovable, not to mention a thousand, even ten million would be too little. But compared to the previous 7 fans that lasted for a long time, the current situation is already very good.
As for the favor of industry seniors, we only need one more to complete the task, so it should not be difficult.
There is another point that everyone is concerned about.
It can be clearly seen from the game background that the information card of Zaizai Zaizai is marked with a dragon filter mode in brackets at the end.
Generally speaking, filters can only be enabled by parents, but the dragons probably got there first. This makes it seem like His Majesty is very close to them. Such scheming dragons, so childish!
As for the text message Your Majesty received from Guangta Logistics.
Anyone could guess that this private jet for His Majesty was one of the three conditions the Dragon Clan had put forward yesterday. But the burly Dragon Clan only cared about giving the plane, not considering the other details—which was no surprise, since they had wings and could simply fly wherever they went.
Therefore, the hotel was reserved by other parents.
On Lanser, the main planet of the mermaids, the young interstellar superstar and mermaid leader is soaking in an infinity pool.
She was a shark-like mermaid with long red hair. At this moment, the smoky blue tail, which was voted as the most beautiful and dangerous tail fin in the universe, was flapping violently in the water, causing small tsunamis in the pool.
The reason lies in the light screen in front of her.
There were three light screens in front of Xia. One was showing the "Cub Development Plan", another was showing the Star Network Forum, and the third was connected to the communication with Aster, the acting patriarch of the Dragon Clan.
"Will His Majesty like the 'plane' we gave him?" the big, silly golden dragon said with longing. Behind him stood the snow-capped mountains where the dragon race had lived for years, and in the background came the excited roars of other dragons. "I originally wanted to give him a starship and a spaceship, but the old red dragon said they were inappropriate. I didn't expect Blue Star's technology to be so backward."
I don't know Xia Suanliu sneered: "Ha, it's quite inappropriate."
Aster didn't care about the sarcasm in the mermaid's tone, but remained immersed in his own world.
"You know, His Majesty lived on Dragon Star for four years. He loved flying, and I even gave him a ride there!" The golden dragon showed off his back to the camera. He had tattooed the scales there with a special pattern, a lifelong pride. "His Majesty was sitting right here at the time."
Is it really that great? What are you showing off?
What the hell are dragons?!
"..." It hurt. Unknowingly, Xia broke a piece of the pool's edge with his bare hands.
"Shh, I'm telling you this in secret, don't tell anyone else. The Light Tower has agreed that we can talk to His Majesty tonight. Only our dragon clan can do this. This is incredible, it's like a dream—"
"Shut up, I don't want to listen anymore!" Wu Zhixia finally couldn't stand it anymore, raised his hand and cut off the communication with the strength of strangling his enemy's neck.
"Threatening the Light Tower through energy cores was something the Dragons could do, and the Mermen could do it, too, but they were a step behind. The Light Tower must be on high alert now; the same method won't work anymore."
Now, the chance to get in touch with the cubs and become the most trusted parent of the cubs all fell into the hands of the dragon clan. Astor even called to show off. How could she not be angry!
I don't know why Xia could only stare at Zai Zai to calm down his anger.
Fortunately, this trick worked remarkably well. Looking at the confused and innocent cub on the screen, after only two seconds, the mermaid's urge to kill the dragon slowly subsided.
"What a cute cub," Wuzhi Xia stared at the game interface in ecstasy, "Huh? Jiang Ye's favor?"
"The favor of industry veterans" was one of the indicators for completing the main quest, but she hadn't expected that these "favors" could also be aura skills. For example, right now, the system was asking her if she wanted to use them.
Wu Zhixia immediately clicked on it and charged two more energy stones into it. This is a rare ore that can only be mined on the Mermaid Star, and each piece is worth millions.
She only discovered by chance that energy stones could be recharged and were not limited to 10 million star coins. This must be a bug that the Light Tower had not discovered yet.
Suddenly, Xia came up with a plan.
Who said that only dragons can buff His Majesty?
Wuzhi Xia summoned his servants, brought a cart of energy stones, and then said to the system:
"Take my aura skills to the maximum. By the way, I want to give my son a little gift."
…
Before Wen Xingze could find his bicycle, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.
"What are you looking for? You didn't even answer my calls," Jiang Ye shook the car keys in his hand. "What's wrong? Are you lost?"
Wen Xingze: “Ah?”
When he checked his phone, he saw that there were indeed two missed calls, but he was so lost in his memories that he didn't hear them.
"I'm so sorry, I forgot to turn off Do Not Disturb on my phone. What do you want to talk to me about?"
He had just said goodbye to Jiang Ye ten minutes ago.
Jiang Ye told him to go home today and take advantage of the popularity of last night's emojis to do a promotional live broadcast for "Treasure Hunt Adventure." As for the next arrangements, he would start actor training classes at the company the next day and the day after tomorrow, and then arrange auditions and other announcements.
The female agent brushed her curly hair.
He said, "Forget it this time. From now on, keep your phone open at all times. Get in the car and say - don't look for it anymore. Your bike is in my trunk."
She couldn't get through to Wen Xingze on the phone, and was afraid that he had run away on his bike, so she simply asked the security guard to hijack Wen Xingze's bike.
Jiang Ye asked Wen Xingze to get on the passenger seat and explained while setting up the navigation:
"I originally wanted to let you go home. It's also a coincidence that Director Zheng of 'Encountering the Dragon Night' is at the nearby Manly Hotel today. I'll take you to meet him."
Agents at her level rarely bring artists to meet directors in person. There is neither obligation nor need to do so.
But she really did like Wen Xingze, and the more she thought about him, the more she liked him. It was strange. Plus, it was quite a coincidence, so she decided to make an extra trip.
Furthermore, the production team hadn't planned to hold open auditions for the role she was trying to secure for Wen Xingze in "Meeting the Dragon Night." It was rumored that the role was being internally chosen for Xu Baijing, but Director Zheng himself was still hesitant.
If you want to get it, you have to do it now, otherwise it will be too late.
"Xu Baijing?" The name startled Wen Xingze. He was actually a bit concerned about the Manly Hotel, even though he didn't take it seriously. They'd even suggested booking the entire hotel and asking him to go to the helipad to find a private jet.
Jiang Ye glanced at him and said, "His family has quite a strong background. What? Are you scared?"
Wen Xingze told the truth: "Not bad."
Xu Baijing is the protagonist of "The Rich Koi." In the original novel, he antagonizes the protagonist and ultimately suffers a tragic end. Since his debut, Wen Xingze has tried his best to avoid any plot related to him.
From the moment he got the script of "Meeting the Dragon Night", Wen Xingze knew that he would have to face Xu Baijing, but this time he was more open-minded.
——The worst that could happen is he can just go and repair cars. He has collected junk before, so being a mechanic would be an upgrade, right?
and.
In fact, Wen Xingze had a dream last night.
He dreamed of a parallel universe in the game, where there were a group of parents who were like old mothers, calling him "baby" and "Your Majesty", worrying about his food, clothing, housing, transportation and his career... The dream was very real, and he still felt it was true.
Doesn’t Xu Baijing have five wealthy fathers?
We are all protected by our parents, so why should we look down on others?
In another universe.
Wen Xingze's thoughts were presented on the game interface in the form of an inner monologue.
After a long silence, the barrage of comments exploded.
【Buri Xia: Ahhhhhhh】
[Feibai11: Ahhhhhhhhhhhh]
[Marry His Majesty Team: Ahhhhh, I cried. I don’t know why, maybe because my little one is so sweet. Anyway, ahhhhhhh]
...Parents across the galaxy covered their hearts at the same time.
Manly Hotel.
A morning tea social gathering of wealthy ladies had just concluded, and the waiter was seeing them off at the door. The valet opened the car door, and one of the ladies tilted her head and whispered, "What's the good news?"
"Who on earth is so generous?" the secretary beside her said, slipping a business card and a tip into the waiter's hand. "Could you introduce me to someone?"
During their morning tea, the people they were socializing with were all from the upper echelons of the pyramid, but no one present had that qualification - booking the entire Manli just to use the helipad was considered state guest-level treatment.
Even that arrogant little star Xu Baijing, whose adoptive father had shares in Manli, which was enough for him to walk all over the capital, couldn't do such a thing.
Even though they are already an unimaginably wealthy family in the eyes of ordinary people, they are still some distance away from being the real top wealthy families.
in the country, she only thought of the Chi family, but this time it was obviously not the Chi family's work.
The waiters were all trained, lowering their eyebrows and speaking in a very strict tone: "Mrs. Ye, I'm really sorry, please don't embarrass me."
The rich lady sighed, stopped insisting, and got into the car.
Not far away.
A young man, seemingly in his twenties, stood in the doorway, flanked by an awkwardly-looking assistant. He was acting coquettishly on the phone, "Dad, I already told you I have an appointment with Director Zheng at Manli to discuss the script today... Private the theater? I don't want to hear this, and you can't even tell me?"
His facial features are very delicate and handsome, and his every move and gesture is like that of a spoiled young master.
It was Xu Baijing.
"Bai Jing, don't be willful." The man on the other end of the phone had a very calm and magnetic voice, a standard male voice, but his tone was a little irritable. "I'll take you skiing in Zurich next week. Doesn't your favorite designer have new styles?"
"I already told you, I don't want to hear this!"
Xu Baijing had always had smooth sailing since childhood and had never suffered such grievances, let alone in front of other people - Zheng Xiaoke, the director of "Meeting the Dragon Night", was standing next to him, making Xu Baijing feel even more embarrassed.
The two argued for a moment longer, before finally giving in. A moment later, the waiter wiped his sweat and said, "Mr. Xu, you may use the area around the outdoor pool, but please make sure you finish before midnight."
The outdoor swimming pool was the farthest area from the helipad in the entire Manli. Even so, it was obtained with great difficulty by Xu Baijing's adoptive father, who had used all his power, and it could only be used until that person arrived.
"We can go somewhere else to talk." Zheng Xiao is a middle-aged man wearing round glasses. He looks a bit like a scholar from the Republic of China and has a good temper.
Xu Baijing said: "It's okay, my dad always agrees with me, so this is not a problem for him."
Zheng Xiao frowned slightly, but ultimately said nothing.
The waiter took them to the outdoor swimming pool.
The once bustling Manli was now deserted. String musicians sat in the center of the lobby, which covered an area of tens of thousands of square meters, tuning their instruments, while fountains rose regularly in the Baroque-style pool.
Zheng Xiao went out to answer a phone call midway through the meeting. When he came back, he said, "Sorry, two of my friends will be coming over later. Will it affect you?"
Xu Baijing was lying under the parasol. He was actually a little unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face: "Well, whatever you want."
A friend of Zheng Xiao's soon arrived. He was a man with medium-length hair and a somewhat scruffy appearance. Xu Baijing had heard that Zheng Xiao loved making friends with these eccentric people, and would even drink with beggars if they got along.
The man with medium-length hair wanted to come over and shake hands with him. Xu Baijing chewed the ice cubes in his juice and lowered his head to play with his mobile phone attentively.
The man smiled knowingly and stopped talking.
Zheng Xiao saw everything.
"Director Zheng, our time is precious, so let's not beat around the bush," Xu Baijing spread out the script for "Meeting the Dragon Night." "I personally love this role, and I've read it many times since I got home. To be a bit arrogant, this role feels like it was tailor-made for me. What do you think?"
The timeline of the fantasy drama "Meeting the Dragon Night" is designed to be very compact. The world is in turmoil, and the male and female protagonists from different forces embark on a journey of search in the long night.
The character Xu Baijing mentioned is named Hengzhi, who is the soul figure in "Meeting the Dragon Night".
He is the last descendant of the dragon clan left in the human world, and is the 'dragon' in Yulong Night.
This is a very profound character. He was spoiled by the elders of the clan in the first half of his life, and was displaced and his family fell into poverty in the second half of his life. He has the youthful spirit and also has some resentment in his heart. He is a young man who carries flowers and wine, and he is also the final boss who is the most hidden in the whole play.
Zheng Xiao's only requirement for Hengzhi's actors is spiritual energy.
It’s neither difficult nor easy.
But at least he knew that Xu Baijing did not meet this requirement.
Xu Baijing will ruin this role, and even this drama, turning it into a commercial scumbag that is simply a money-making and homosexuality-selling work. This is not an exaggeration. Just look at the dramas that Xu Baijing has participated in, or even ruined, you will know.
This is also the reason why Zheng Xiao has been unable to give in, even though the capital behind Xu Baijing has put pressure on him again and again.
"I know you're a director who pays close attention to visuals and the expressiveness of the shots," Xu Baijing said. He had done his homework, after all. "You can go and see my previous works... How did he get in?"
Xu Baijing looked towards the entrance and suddenly frowned.
Zheng Xiao followed his gaze, pushed up his glasses, and said, "The Jiang Ye I'm dating might be her artist. Do you know him?"
Xu Baijing replied casually:
"Know him? I guess I do. His name is Wen Xingze. I often heard him complain about his family's financial difficulties on variety shows." His complaints were fake. It was true that Xu Baijing was always outshined by him every time they were in the same frame. At that time, Xu Baijing had a unilateral grudge against him:
"I saw the meme of him collecting scrap on a tricycle yesterday, and I thought he'd changed his career. It's quite pitiful. I heard he's played a lot of odd jobs and errand boys in those homemade web series and low-budget micro-films, which really suits him."
Zheng Xiao didn't answer.
Jiang Ye led Wen Xingze over. Wen Xingze didn't have the petty airs that Xu Baijing had described him as. Even a simple, inexpensive shirt gave him a high-end look. He had an ochre teardrop mole at the corner of his eye, but his eyes looked a little sleepy.
On the contrary, he is even more noble than Xu Baijing.
Xu Baijing is not ugly. His facial features are in accordance with the most standard of human aesthetics, with big eyes and a high nose bridge. But compared with the one over there, he looks like a deliberately carved vulgar object.
The sloppy man with medium-length hair next to Zheng Xiao also said "Yo" and turned around with interest.
Xu Baijing gritted his teeth secretly.
Sudden.
The faucet of the automatic watering device in the green belt next to him suddenly turned on, facing Wen Xingze: "Sizzle——"
Everyone was stunned.
The water only poured on Wen Xingze, while Jiang Ye next to him was unharmed.
At this moment, Xu Baijing suddenly remembered that Wen Xingze had extremely bad luck. It was common for the microphone to be silent and the BGM tape to be leaked when he was on stage.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, he is still so unlucky." Xu Baijing couldn't help but gloat.
No one answered.
Zheng Xiao, the man with medium-length hair, and Xu Baijing's own assistant all stared at that direction intently. Zheng Xiao even stood up and hurriedly took two steps forward.
Wen Xingze was drenched in water from head to toe, and he was obviously a little confused. He was saying something to Jiang Ye who had already walked down the stairs.
He stood beneath a clear blue sky. The pool shimmered, a few rays of light glimmering into the young man's eyes, tinging those pale eyes with a hint of a faint blue. A sudden, sharp midsummer breeze blew. Wen Xingze stood alone at the top of the long staircase, his eyelashes drooping, enveloped in the sunlight.
Words cannot describe the shocking feeling of the whole picture.
Wen Xingze just stood there, and his presence itself seemed to be telling a story.
Lonely, mysterious, wandering outside the whole world, carrying the burden of all the lonely kings and the last descendants of their clan who walk alone without any subjects.
He seemed to be favored by streams, rivers, and everything related to the ocean. Drops of water slid down his cheeks, dancing with all the light and shadows.
Make the viewer lose their mind.
Zheng Xiao even subconsciously looked for the camera, but after a long time, he remembered that this was not the time for filming.
Not being able to record that moment in time remains one of the biggest regrets in director Zheng Xiao's career many years later.
