Chapter 5 Regarding "sex", you have...
Two days later, Building 8 officially announced the second important actor of the film, Fang Zhi, who plays the role of "father".
A very legendary character.
Not only is he handsome and elegant, but he is also extremely talented. He became famous at a young age and had won three Best Actor trophies before he was 27 years old.
If it were today, he would be on par with Meng Qingyan.
Unfortunately, the good times didn’t last long.
When he was 25 years old, Fang Zhi fell into a relationship that was not favored by the outside world.
The other party came from a wealthy family, was extremely wealthy, and was a few years younger than him, only twenty-two years old at the time.
This relationship lasted until Fang Zhi was 27 years old and Zhou Xing was 24 years old.
Under tremendous pressure from public opinion and the Zhou family, the two announced their breakup after only two years.
At the age of 27, the best time of his life, Zhou Xing realized he had to retire. He gave up his studies, went abroad, and never came back.
Originally, it is normal for relationships to break up and get back together.
But this relationship still became a regret in the hearts of many people.
Even after all these years, people still bring it up from time to time.
Fang Zhi’s fans, in particular, can never get over the fact that he retired from the entertainment industry at his best years.
Now, fifteen years have passed, and I know that he is already forty-two years old, but he is back in business.
As soon as it came out, it was a movie of the magnitude of Building No. 8.
For a moment, some people were crying, some were laughing, and the love affair that ended in vain was once again blown away and reappeared in front of everyone.
Although it is not clear through the veil, it has aroused netizens' curiosity even more.
Both actors Lian Xuan are very popular.
All of a sudden, the popularity of Building No. 8 soared again, dominating the charts, giving people the illusion that it had become a hit before it was even filmed.
Amid the clamor of public opinion, time passed little by little and finally arrived at 1:30 in the afternoon.
In the hotel corridor where the main creators of Building 8 were, many artists were waiting quietly.
When we meet someone we know, we say hello. Occasionally, if we have a very good relationship with each other, we will get together and chat in a low voice.
Because of Building No. 8’s extreme popularity on the Internet, even though everyone was very self-restrained, there was still a slight sense of tension and excitement in the space.
Finally, people started to go in, one after another, but without exception, almost everyone who came out had a look of confusion and anxiety on their faces.
The excitement in the air gradually dissipated and was completely replaced by tension.
Bai You didn't like this atmosphere, so he took out his cell phone and opened the game.
"Tell me," noticing his movements, Liu Yanfei came over and asked, "What did they experience in there?"
"I don't know." Bai You said. He was not as respectful and fawning to Liu Yanfei as other people in the company, and his eyes were fixed on the screen from beginning to end.
He has seen through the ups and downs of life and friendship in the entertainment industry.
Even with artists from the same company, they are just nodding acquaintances to him.
The same goes for Liu Yanfei.
Although he was already very cold, Liu Yanfei seemed not to notice and moved closer to Bai You.
"That day," he suddenly asked, "did you really hit Wei Enquan?"
Hearing this, Bai You's rapidly sliding fingertips paused slightly, and the small fish hit other fish, and the game was declared OVER.
"Yeah." Liu Yanfei asked this, he must have known what happened, so there was no need for Bai You to deny it.
Hearing this, Liu Yanfei couldn't help but be shocked.
Over the years, he considered himself to be quite knowledgeable.
In daily life, most of the artists who make a living by their looks, like Bai You, package themselves as immortal little fairies.
Not to mention using violence, he would even try hard to hold back a single dirty word in front of outsiders.
Not to mention, Bai You is a senior executive of the company.
Zhu Zhijun and Wei Enquan's agent Gao Lan have a special relationship, and Xingyu Entertainment's resources are somewhat biased.
Moreover, Gao Lan has an extremely strong personality and she wants to show her presence even when she has nothing to do.
Liu Yanfei was really curious about how Bai You had managed to make Wei Enquan hide at home like a fool and not dare to see anyone, but not only was he not banned by the company, but he could also wait for the audition here with peace of mind.
"I saw the news as soon as I went downstairs and got in the car that day. If the crew hadn't been on a tight schedule, I would have gone back to check it out." Liu Yanfei said.
After hearing what he said, Bai You finally turned his gaze.
Liu Yanfei coughed lightly, realizing that his character was exposed.
But Bai You just glanced at him and started the game again.
Well, Liu Yanfei thought, there was no need to pretend so hard in front of someone who didn't even have a personality.
"You're not afraid..."
Liu Yanfei originally wanted to ask, aren’t you afraid that the company will target you?
But before he could finish his words, Bai You raised his eyebrows impatiently.
"The stairwell surveillance is broken," he said. "Didn't you know that?"
It was precisely because the surveillance camera in the stairwell was broken that Wei Enquan provoked him there, so as to avoid leaving any handle and ruining his perfect image.
But it was also because the surveillance camera in the stairwell was broken that Bai You took action without saying a word.
He also understood that he couldn't leave any evidence to anyone.
He was also sure that Gao Lan didn't know what Wei Enquan had done.
She would definitely interrogate Wei Enquan that day, and his strong attitude at that time would definitely make her think that she had evidence that Wei Enquan had drugged her.
After watching a lot of movies, Bai You knows that the more unrealistic things are, the easier it is to fool people.
What artists value most is their face and image.
He was betting that Gao Lan was afraid of the "evidence" in his hands and would not dare to speak out.
Not only that, they should also be more restrained in Xingyu Entertainment and not cooperate with Feng Yu to deliberately target him as they did before.
Xingyu Entertainment still has more than a year to go, and he just wants to finish it without any trouble.
As for Zhu Zhijun...
He neither dared to support him nor let him go, and even did not hope that he could turn things around.
The simple thing is that if he leaves now, when the contract expires in the future, the initiative will no longer be in the hands of Xingyu Entertainment.
At that time, Xingyu Entertainment will not only lose a cash cow, but also gain a strongest competitor.
But if he signs with another company and takes off again, then Xingyu Entertainment is bound to become a laughing stock in the circle.
After all, it would be embarrassing to tell others about it if I could only hold the treasure for eight years and then keep it hidden for eight years.
Now, he should be pursuing a conciliatory policy.
If he wanted to continue staying in Xingyu Entertainment, he must not fall out now.
As for agreeing with Jiang Minyao's suggestion to let him come for an audition, it was only because of the association between him and Meng Qingyan on the Internet, which made Zhu Zhijun feel that Meng Qingyan would not want to stand on the same stage with him or appear in the same movie.
His fingertips slid rapidly, and the little fish on the screen grew longer and stronger. A hint of imperceptible irony appeared under Bai You's thick eyelashes.
Liu Yanfei was very close to him at this moment, and was inexplicably stabbed by the sharpness in his eyes.
To be honest, no one in the entire Xingyu Entertainment dared to be so impatient with him.
But strangely, he didn't feel disgusted.
On the contrary, he also saw something more attractive and charming in Bai You besides his appearance.
Subconsciously, he leaned towards Bai You again.
Liu Yanfei also disliked Wei Enquan and felt that he had no bottom line.
He was just about to lower his voice and complain a few words into Bai You's ear, but he suddenly felt a chill.
It was a very strange feeling, as if being stared at by some ferocious and dangerous beast, about to be killed in the next second.
Liu Yanfei shivered uncontrollably and instinctively turned his head, meeting a pair of cold and sharp eyes.
Liu Yanfei: “…”
"Damn it!" It was not until the tall figure disappeared into the door that Liu Yanfei couldn't help but hold Bai You's arm and shook it, "Meng Qingyan, Meng Qingyan is here."
The low pressure just passed, and the air in the quiet space finally began to flow again. Like Liu Yanfei, many people's faces were filled with excitement.
Bai You's hand shook, and the little fish hit the wall again, and the game was once again destroyed in Liu Yanfei's hands.
He pursed his lips patiently and looked at Liu Yanfei unfriendly.
Liu Yanfei: “…”
Since I'm not going to pretend anymore, I won't pretend at all.
"Sorry, I was a little excited just now." He lowered his voice and explained embarrassedly, "Actually, I'm a fan of Meng Qingyan."
The door opened and Zhou Lian's assistant appeared at the door again, holding a card.
But this time, her gaze went straight to Bai You.
"Teacher Bai," the assistant invited politely, "please come this way."
Bai You stood up and walked into the door under the gazes of everyone and Liu Yanfei's gentle encouragement.
There were no cameras in the suite's living room, just a few people sitting relaxedly on the sofa.
The tea was still steaming, and it didn't look like they were selecting actors, but more like they were just chatting.
"Teacher Bai," Zhou Lian raised his hand and gestured to the single sofa opposite him when he saw Bai You, "Sit down."
The assistant brought out another cup of hot tea and placed it on the round table in front of Bai You.
Bai You sat down and politely greeted the people opposite him.
The casting director of this film is Wei Yuan, who is also the film's assistant director.
After a few pleasantries, he was the one who asked the first question.
"Do you like watching movies?" Wei Yuan asked.
This question is not difficult for Bai You.
Over the years, most of the roles he got were minor or cameo appearances, and he had no chance to face the camera for a long time.
In order to improve his ability to control the rhythm of the story and his perception of the characters, movies are the tool that Bai You uses most in his daily life.
Watch movies, write film reviews, and compile biographies...
I even performed in front of the mirror over and over again until I could reproduce the classic scenes on the screen, and then think about whether there are better ways to perform and express...
It is boring and interesting at the same time.
But it is undeniable that Bai You likes it.
"I like it." He nodded.
"Have you seen the women of Moulin Rouge?" Wei Yuan asked again.
Bai You nodded.
"What do you think the movie expresses?" Wei Yuan asked.
"Love, self, or something else?" Zhou Lian prompted.
Hearing this, Xu Zhiyun smiled and leaned forward. Only Meng Qingyan was still leaning nonchalantly on the sofa, his pair of dark eyes fixed on Bai You with ambiguous expressions.
Bai You pursed his lips and recalled the details of the movie.
Moulin Rouge is a classic love movie. When most people hear this question, they will instinctively answer "love."
But Bai You didn't think so.
He paused for a moment and said, "Self."
"We can have a deeper chat." Xu Zhiyun encouraged.
"In the movie, the hero and heroine split up and get back together again and again. On the surface, it's all about worldliness and love." Bai You said slowly while thinking, "But in fact, every time they leave or run towards each other, it's because they can find and gain themselves more deeply."
There was a moment of silence, no one spoke.
Bai You pursed his lips and added, "Love is just a derivative of the self, a drop of the self, one ten-thousandth."
"One in ten thousand?" Wei Yuan was a little surprised. "Then how rich is a person's inner core?"
This time Bai You didn't say anything, but just answered with a decent smile.
"Then what do you think," Meng Qingyan, who had remained silent before, suddenly spoke slowly, "putting aside the movie and falling into the secular world, what is love?"
This was a very formal conversation.
Bai You was no longer affected by what happened that night and thought seriously.
He thought of Gan Wei and Jin Lai.
"It's endless nonsense." Putting aside the romance in the movies, his understanding of love is limited and shallow. "Is it the hands that hold together to build the Great Wall to resist the wind and waves?"
Hearing this, Meng Qingyan seemed to smile, and his dark eyes looked over dangerously.
"Baiyou," he called his name, "what do you think about 'sex'?"
Hearing this, Bai You's eyelashes twitched, and he finally couldn't help but look up at Meng Qingyan.
Meng Qingyan is only twenty-one years old. He has a pair of peach blossom eyes that can be affectionate or cold. At first glance, he looks quite boyish.
But even when asked such a naked question, he remained calm and composed, without changing his expression.
The room was quiet for a moment, and Bai You couldn't help but start to wonder.
This can't be a Category III movie, right?
