Chapter 157

When I came out of the movie theater, it was time to get off work in the afternoon. Unlike the entertainment area, the lights in the movie building were still bright. There was a writing team busy in a meeting, an art team making props, and an editor who had just woken up.

The elevator in the movie building was also very interesting. It was transparent, and you could see the situation on each floor when you went up and down.

There were dark office areas, and there were also floors with lights on for meetings.

"If you take this elevator down in the early morning, wouldn't you be scared to death?" Just now, that floor was completely dark, and Jiangtang was scared to death, and he hasn't recovered yet.

Cheng Yuan, who stayed here every day, chuckled, "So they don't take this elevator after dark."

"This is suitable for shooting horror movies."

"Okay, let them shoot in our company next time."

Cheng Yuan and Jiang Tang chatted as they talked.

Jiang Juyu stood at the front of the elevator and looked ahead, listening to their conversation in her ears and Cong Lixia's chatter in her head.

"Are you afraid of this?"

"I don't think you are afraid."

"If you were afraid, you wouldn't have been able to sleep when you lived in the Galexi Stadium."

Jiang Juyu kept saying: "..."

Her daily life is like this, doing two things at the same time.

Jiang Juyou replied to Cong Lixia in her heart, "I was more terrifying than a ghost when I had no money at that time."

Cong Lixia recalled Jiang Juyou's hard work.

"..."

The elevator door opened, and Jiang Juyou said, "We're here, let's go."

"Ding--"

The sound of the elevator door opening rang out, and the other assistants sitting in front of the workstation stood up to greet them.

Seeing Jiang Juyou and the others coming over, one of them stepped forward and said, "Sister Chen Xi is already waiting inside." As he spoke, he pushed open the office door.

Jiang Juyou glanced at the three assistants, then at the time, "You guys can go off work. There's nothing to do later. We can go back by ourselves later."

"Okay." The three assistants replied. Cheng Yuan

said at this time, "You are jealous. Look at us. We are never on time."

"Come on, I know you guys. You sleep until you wake up naturally before coming to the company every day." Jiang Juyu turned her head and saw Chen Xi. She raised her hands and hugged her, "Sister Chen Xi, you are in good condition recently."

"Oh, little Chen Xi, you finally gained some weight!" Cheng Yuan also said loudly.

Chen Xi also sighed, "Hey, it's better to be busy. When you are busy, you can't think about random things. These days I have been writing my manuscript every day. I write when I wake up, eat when I am hungry, and sleep after eating."

"That's how it should be!" Jiang Tang also said at the right time.

Jiang Juyou urged the assistants to get off work quickly and asked them to take a taxi home, saying that she would reimburse them. Then she turned around and said, "Let's talk inside. Don't block the door. People who don't know would think that the four of us are door gods, standing here for a long time."

"Xiao Jiang, I find that you are getting more and more humorous recently." Cheng Yuan was always amused by Jiang Juyou.

After pushing and urging, Jiang Juyou finally brought them to the office.

The first sentence after sitting down was, "You haven't eaten yet, right? I'll order takeout. How about Haidilao takeout? Oh! By the way, Sister Cheng Yuan, you want to eat salad, right?" Cheng

Yuan curled her lips, "...Order one, order salad to eat after dinner."

"Hahahahahahaha!" Chen Xi was also amused and laughed out loud.

Jiang Tang, who was watching the scene, found it amazing. She had never seen a sister like this before.

Her sister at home was always taciturn. She was either sitting on the sofa or lying on the bed. She either had a book or a mobile phone in her hand. She seldom watched TV and seldom participated in the conversation between her and Jiang Liuxing. She would only say a word when they were about to quarrel.

Talking seemed to consume her health bar. She would not talk if she could avoid talking at home.

I didn't expect her to be so talkative outside.

The main reason why Jiang Tang was called this time was because of Chen Xi.

After the takeaway was delivered, they ate and talked. Jiang Juyu, as the middleman, told her sister about this.

"Sister Chen Xi wrote a script, and I think it's pretty good. She asked me if I had any recommendations, and I recommended you. She thinks you are indeed quite suitable, so she organized this event today to introduce you two to each other. You have been in the same company for such a long time, and you two haven't greeted each other much. Today is a good time to have a meal and chat, and talk about the script by the way."

Jiang Juyou said in one breath. Before Chen Xi and Jiang Tang could react, Cheng Yuan said, "What about me? What's my use today?"

"You play a role of enhancement." Jiang Juyou replied.

Chen Xi, who has a low sense of laughter, was amused again, and the bowl in her hand was almost overturned by her.

Cheng Yuan was far away from her, and if she could, she would definitely pat Jiang Juyou.

"I'm just kidding. I mainly want you to take a look at this script and see if you are interested in being a producer?" Jiang Juyou comforted her.

Chen Xi was from the acting department, so she should have been closer to Cheng Yuan, but because Jiang Juyou often came to accompany her during the time when she was in trouble, they contacted each other frequently, and they always had dinner together afterwards, so they became friends.

She hadn't shown her script to anyone else yet, and only Jiang Juyou had seen the versions she had recently revised.

Speaking of the script, Chen Xi also became a little shy. She took the script out of her bag and handed it to the three people around her.

"This is the latest version. You can take a look. Of course, read it after eating, otherwise it will drip onto your notebook."

Cheng Yuan put down his chopsticks and flipped through it a few times, looking at the outline. "Not bad, Chen Xi. I didn't expect you to have this talent."

"I'll ask Sister Chen Xi to pack up and prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination again, and let her go behind the scenes." Jiang Juyou said.

Seeing her mention this, Cheng Yuan looked at Chen Xi, "...Have you thought about it?"

"Yes." Chen Xi nodded.

"As long as you have thought about it, we all support you 100%. You just ran from my right pocket to my left pocket." Cheng Yuan said.

Chen Xi on the other side was obviously much better, and she even acted coquettishly, "Okay, then I'll be your left pocket girl from now on."

Random Entertainment has a very strong protection for artists. Just looking at the trainees and idols living in the apartment, you can see how much they value the privacy of artists.

Chen Xi's case is not as simple as the outside world says. What

netizens outside know is that Chen Xi was harassed by black fans and received a box of malicious cockroaches.

This is indeed the case, but this is only a small part.

There are also similar things like frequent phone harassment, pretending to be fans to PUA her, leaving malicious comments on her various social platforms, and spreading rumors about her by confusing right and wrong.

She has endured all the malicious comments and harassment, but the accusations did not make her get over that hurdle.

Before she decided to move behind the scenes, Chen Xi tried to cheer herself up and even tried to open up to her fans in the 1v1 chat room with Gailexi.

But the texts she posted in the chat room were reposted on the forum, misinterpreting her meaning and encouraging others to attack her.

Chen Xi just told her fans in the chat room that she was really tired and in pain recently.

That night, a post appeared in the forum.

"Title: Eat melons and argue/No, you, a 2.08w person who hasn't filmed for two years and still makes money from fans, how dare you say that you are in pain?"

"You say you haven't filmed for two years and are afraid to face the public, while you make money from fans by making money from fans."

"Do you know what pain is?"

"Have you ever had no income for half a year?"

"Selling for 900 is your blessing."

"I suggest that 2.08w people stop selling miserably, after all, you haven't experienced the suffering of the world."

The protagonist of this unnamed post was quickly exposed, and the small points matched one by one, and it was Chen Xi.

Those who didn't understand the post soon united with the host and accused Chen Xi, and there was a quarrel in the post, with more than 2,000 posts.

"The feeling of hatred comes inexplicably. Sometimes you just hate a person for no reason."

"Don't look for the problem in yourself. It just hates you for no reason and is full of malice towards you."

"Look at the comments posted on its homepage. It also understands that pain cannot be compared, but your pain does not count. You are just an actor. You should be entertained by others. How can you be painful? You make so much money easily, how can you be painful?"

"These words are wrong in themselves!"

Chen Xi broke down and cried at the time. She didn't leave the house for several days. Her boyfriend couldn't contact her, but he finally contacted her assistant, who then contacted the company and tried to find the person.

The situation was so dangerous that she had prepared the tools for charcoal burning, but because she had not eaten or drunk for several days and was dehydrated, she did not have the strength to go to the living room to get something, so she failed.

For those netizens outside, she made so much money, and all this pain was what Chen Xi deserved. If she couldn't bear it, it was her problem.

Chen Xi was also brainwashed by this strange theory, and felt that she shouldn't live in this world if she couldn't bear it.

Jiang Juyou was busy with the music festival at the time, and was so busy that she was exhausted. In the middle of the process, she suddenly received a call saying that Chen Xi committed suicide. She was so scared that her legs went weak. She rushed to her house and found out that it was an attempted suicide.

Later, Chen Xi was diagnosed with depression and panic disorder and was hospitalized for treatment. The company signed a confidentiality agreement with many medical staff, requiring them not to discuss privately or post to any social platforms. If there was a rumor on the Internet, it must have been spread by their medical staff.

In this way, Chen Xi stayed in the hospital for nearly two months.

These are all unknown to the outside world.

The outside world only knows that after Chen Xi received a box of cockroaches, she couldn't bear it and retired for two years.

The cockroach joke has also become a threatening word in the fan circle. When the fan circle fights, they say they will send a box of cockroaches to each other.

When the incident just happened, everyone thought it was serious, but after being entertained for a long time, everyone became indifferent and felt that it was no big deal.

It will only scare you for a while, not to the point of being like Chen Xi.

Some people on the Internet are saying that Chen Xi is hypocritical, saying that other artists have also been sent dead rats before, but why didn't they act like she did.

It seems that the one who is wrong is not the black fans who sent cockroaches, but Chen Xi.

"It's good to move behind the scenes. Give us three years to marry two people, a Cannes next year and an Oscar the year after, how about it?" Jiang Juyu said lively.

Cheng Yuan applauded on the side, "Oh my God, Xiao Jiang, how come your mouth is getting better and better now?"

"Thank you, thank you. I have been to too many dinner parties recently. I can't stand sitting there for an entire afternoon without talking too much." Jiang Juyu even clasped his fists and gestured.

Jiang Tang, who was sitting there quietly, read the script. He originally thought it would be a suspense mystery or a story written by Chen Xi, but it was actually a comedy.

"It's a bit unexpected..." Jiang Tang was more and more surprised. She had heard about Chen Xi's situation and knew more than those outside. She didn't expect that Chen Xi in this mental state would write a comedy.

Jiang Juyou explained, "You can tell who the muse is from the script. The brother-in-law is a chatterbox. He is a joke every time he touches her."

Chen Xi's boyfriend is a talk show actor. She has recovered so well now thanks to the sunflower by her side.

The main plot is suspense and reasoning, but the core is family affection. It tells a series of events that happened when Xiao Ma, an optimistic person who graduated from the art major, and his depressed sister returned to their hometown to investigate the cause of their mother's death.

"I think it's quite like you two sisters." Chen Xi glanced at Jiang Jueyou and Jiang Tang and said.

Cheng Yuan, who was holding the script, looked up and didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Jiang Tang became the one who was restless. She didn't dare to raise her head, and her eyes were rolling around.

Jiang Jueyou was calm. She sat there with her back straight. Seeing that Cheng Yuan didn't understand what she meant, she stretched out her finger and pointed at Jiang Tang and herself, "We are sisters."

Looking at Cheng Yuan's confused expression, it was obvious that he didn't understand yet.

"She is my biological sister." Jiang Juyou smiled, but quickly retracted her smile, fearing that Cheng Yuan would think she was joking again.

"..."

"Really?" Cheng Yuan finally reacted at this time, his eyes widened.

She didn't even bother to read the script, but came forward to compare the two people's faces, trying to find similarities.

"Jiang Tang and Jiang Jueyou...hiss...they don't look alike!" Cheng Yuan tilted her head and said.

When Chinese people name their brothers and sisters, they like to give them similar names that can be seen at a glance as siblings.

But Jiang Tang and Jiang Jueyou have nothing to do with each other except that they both have the surname Jiang. There are so many people with the surname Jiang in the country, who would have thought that they are sisters.

Not only the names, but even their facial features look alike.

Cheng Yuan asked suspiciously, "Are you two lying to me? Are you teasing me?"

"Yeah, I'm lying to you." Jiang Jueyou said lazily and just went along with her.

"See! I knew it!" Cheng Yuan felt that he was smart this time and didn't fall for it.

Chen Xi fell on the sofa laughing, her giggles were irritating to the ears. Jiang Tang was a little surprised, wondering why her sister suddenly made their relationship public.

The four of them ate and chatted in Jiang Juyu's office until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening.

Cheng Yuan drove back by himself, Chen Xi was picked up by her boyfriend, and Jiang Tang and Jiang Juyu left in their own cars.

Jiang Tang sat in the passenger seat, and as soon as she got in the car, she couldn't wait to ask, "Why did you suddenly remember to tell them that we are sisters?"

At this moment, she was as surprised as if her underground relationship was suddenly made public. She was also happy in her heart, as if she had been recognized.

Jiang Juyou controlled the steering wheel and paid attention to the road ahead. "I didn't hide it on purpose. It was you who didn't want to make it public."

"Oh, it seems so."

Jiang Tang remembered that she was the one who suggested not to make it public at first. At that time, Jiang Juyou was already very famous in the industry, and she was still a little unknown. If the sisterhood was made public, Jiang Tang would be very burdened.

She asked again, "Then there is no need to say it suddenly like today."

"If you don't release some news to the outside world, the outside world will say that I support you." Jiang Juyou has been browsing the forum before going to bed recently, and she always sees some outrageous posts. The gossip in it is half true and half false. Some say that they are sisters, and some say that they are in a relationship.

Jiang Tang held the seat belt and thought for a while, "...They are indeed right. Jiang Liuxing and I are now eating and drinking your food."

The rent, utilities and property were paid by Jiang Juyu, and most of the household items were purchased by Jiang Juyu.

Jiang Juyu: "..."

There is a sister with a bad brain above, and a sister with a brain cramp below.

"It's true." Cong Lixia also analyzed it.

Jiang Juyu sneered, "Heh."

I almost forgot that there is a Fengchu here.

The car was speeding on the avenue in the early morning. There were only a few scattered cars on the viaduct, and the street lights shone lonely. Jiang Juyu had never been so eager to go home as at this moment.

The building of Random Entertainment had gone dark, with only the lights on in the practice rooms on the lower floors.

NiGHT finished its day's classes at 12:30 in the evening.

They were so exhausted from the dance class that they couldn't even stand up. Only Xia Simiao was still a little energetic. She supported them on both sides and helped them to the sofa.

"No, I really can't do it anymore. It's only been a few days and I feel like I'm not going to live anymore. How did you survive that year?" "

In the past, I didn't feel my legs separated from my body until the next day after running 800 meters. Now I don't have to wait until the next day. I can't feel it anymore."

"Me too. My legs became weak the first time I danced."

The weak ones were already paralyzed on the sofa and couldn't move. Not to mention moving their legs, they didn't even want to move a finger.

"Meow meow, can you find a cargo truck to take us back?"

"If not, let's sleep here tonight."

"That's good, that's good, we don't have to get up early tomorrow morning."

Xia Simiao, who was drinking water, glanced at them, "Hurry up, we have to go back to take a shower. We are sweating all over, and our clothes are soaked. If we don't take a shower, they will stink." "

I was wondering why the tarot reading told me to be careful with water this month. It turns out that I am going to drown in the bathroom today." "I

don't ask to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but I ask to die on the same day of the same month of the same year, sisters--"

"Sisters!!!"

"You guys can't even stand up, but your mouths are still alive."

There were also people from several other groups who came out of the practice room at the same time.

Their practice rooms happened to be on this floor, and they met each other's eyes as soon as the door opened.

Pei Luming hadn't seen his sister for a long time, but he didn't expect to run into her tonight.

"How did you guys practice until this point?" They had to practice a lot of dances for the recording, which dragged them to this point.

"Eh?"

Pei Zhiping and the other four were still wearing makeup when they came out, and they bumped into each other in the hallway. The two groups greeted each other politely.

She explained, "We had a costume fitting today. We tried it for the whole afternoon, and my skin was rubbed off." Pei Zhiping showed him the red spots on her arms after she finished speaking.

Speaking of costume fittings, it brought back their unpleasant memories. Yao Shu next to them sighed, "Ah... we also tried hundreds of sets a few days ago."

As they were talking, the doors of several more practice rooms were opened.

"What's up!" Jiang Wangran seemed to be in good spirits. Not only him, but the two people behind him also didn't look tired.

Gao Xiayu took a look inside, "What are you practicing?"

"We have several classes today, and we practiced together for a while in the afternoon." Jiang Wangran replied.

He was about to say something when another door was opened. This time the aisle was really blocked.

Jiang Wangran, who was a little too tired, relied on his body to support himself. Seeing so many people, he began to get excited again.

"Happy New Year!" Jiang Wangran suddenly shouted this.

Pei Luming, who was in a similar mental state, quickly got in touch with him and shouted, "Happy New Year!"

"Congratulations on your prosperity!"

"Who's sending a red envelope?"

"Whoever is the oldest will be the most successful."

"Brother, he'll pick on you!"

Jiang Wangran and Pei Luming were arguing and the anger turned to Gao Xiayu.

Gao Xiayu: "..."

It's tiring enough to take care of his own children, and he has to take care of other children too.

He glanced at Chen Wu, who shook his head at him, "Don't even think about it, I can't control them at all."

The girls were all very quiet, and after coming out, they all walked back quietly through another road. Pei Zhiping even said hello to Pei Luming before leaving, but Pei Luming, who was busy arguing with Jiang Wangran, didn't notice his sister at all, and walked away with his arm around Ye Xing's injured shoulder.

Pei Zhiping: "..."

She turned around and said to the others, "Stay away from them in the future, they're all a bunch of psychopaths."

"I see." Han Lemi looked back and commented.

The boys over there were making a lot of noise. Among the seven people from Frositin, some had practiced with Timetrain at the same time, and some had practiced with Equals3 at the same time, so most of them knew each other.

Jiang Wangran glanced at the time, "Do you want to play basketball?"

"Why, do you want to die suddenly?"

"Tsk, can you say something nice?"

The guys from Frositin haven't debuted yet, and they are told by their agents to be obedient every day, so they are relatively well-behaved.

"... Didn't you tell the agents that you can't go out?"

"No, we can play basketball on the rooftop." Jiang Wangran said.

"Huh?"

"Really?"

"Can we go up to the rooftop?"

Even the people from Timetrain didn't know that the rooftop could be reached, and only Jiang Wangran and the other three had been there.

Judging from their reactions, none of them had been to the rooftop.

Jiang Wangran encouraged them, "Let's go, let's play a game. You can go to the basketball court on the rooftop. You don't need to report. We have asked. You haven't left the dormitory building, so what's the point of reporting?"

No one believed him. Everyone looked at Chen Wu and Sang Mo behind him.

Seeing them nod, everyone relaxed.

"Let's go, let's play a game!"

--------------------

Jiang Wangran: What do you mean?
