A dreamless night.
Li Zhao opened the curtains and saw that the world outside was already covered in snow.
He opened the window, used the snow on the balcony to shape a short and plump little snowman, and took out his cell phone to take a picture.

When Li fans saw that their little one had finally come out to do business, they all came out to like, comment and repost the post. Some more mischievous fans even asked him what special feelings he had about his first appearance on the News Broadcast?
Li Zhao replied: I don’t have any feelings about it, I just saved the GIF, ready to brag about it fifty years later.
Pear fans: Hahahahaha.
It can be seen that their child is very happy to be an enthusiastic citizen in the news broadcast.
When Li Zhao was interacting with his fans on Weibo, Yan Ting posted a message on his Moments blocking only Li Zhao.
Yan Ting: My kids at home actually gave me red envelopes, that's ridiculous [Photo]
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, senior executives saw this post on WeChat Moments and gave it “likes”. Although they all knew that the "child" the boss was talking about was not a real child.
Anyway, since the boss wants to show off, they just cooperate with him and nothing else matters.
After breakfast, Li Zhao lazily leaned on the sofa, wondering whether to stay at home today or take Yan Ting out to play.
His cell phone vibrated, he picked up the phone, and found himself in a WeChat group.
The crew of "Storm Rises".
This movie is Li Zhao's first guest appearance after joining Strawberry Entertainment. Although he is just an 18th-tier actor, Strawberry Entertainment, relying on its status as an investor, made him a special guest star in this movie.
After joining the crew, he only filmed for about ten days in total. Although the director team politely called him Teacher Li, they did not invite him into the crew.
The filming has been over for several months, why did the crew think of adding him to the group?
"Welcome, Mr. Li."
"Welcome, welcome."
There were about twenty people in the group, and everyone was still enthusiastic about welcoming Li Zhao early in the morning.
"Thank you, teachers. You can just call me Xiao Li." Li Zhao noticed that those who came out to welcome him included Liu Fen and Zhao Yingnan, who had won Best Actress and Best Actor awards.
Although I don’t know why they are so enthusiastic, it’s definitely right to be humble.
"Teacher Li, our movie is released this morning, and the crew is planning to do an offline promotion in Beijing. I wonder if you have time tomorrow?"
"Storm Rises" has been promoting recently, but the promotion is not done by Strawberry Entertainment, and the crew has not contacted Li Zhao about promotional matters, so Li Zhao has no idea about the promotion of this movie.
Zhao Zhao has good luck: Congratulations, and I wish you a big box office success.
He looked at the time. The movie had been released for more than eight hours and he didn't know what the audience thought of the movie.
Director: Thanks to you for your good wishes, the pre-sale box office of this movie has exceeded 100 million. As long as everyone works harder on publicity, the box office will be even better.
Li Zhao didn't know why the crew suddenly brought him in for promotion. When he was thinking about how to respond to the director's invitation, Liu Fen sent a message.
Liu Fen: Xiao Li is a contracted artist of our company, and it is difficult for him to arrange his work. Director, instead of asking Xiao Li about this, you might as well ask his publicity agent.
Director: Hahahaha, Teacher Liu is right.
Everyone in the group could see that Liu Fen was protecting Li Zhao. This was not a very fair thing on their part. They thought Li Zhao was not a big enough star, so they never brought Li Zhao along when they went on promotional shows.
However, what the crew did not expect was that eight hours after "Storm Rises" was released, there were more and more discussions about Li Zhao on the Internet. Many film critics even said that the look in Li Zhao's eyes when he turned back at the end of the movie elevated the artistry of the entire film.
Some film critics said that if Li Zhao's eyes were any more exaggerated, it would be too much, and if they were any less, it would not achieve the effect the director wanted. His eyes are just right.
It’s like eating a delicious dish and then discovering a surprise prepared by the store at the bottom of the bowl, which makes you feel more favorable towards this store.
If the full score is ten, without Li Zhao's final look, this movie can only get eight points, but the director cleverly added this look, which increased the audience's imagination, so this movie deserves nine points.
Some viewers even felt that there were many points in the movie that they had not noticed because of Li Zhao's eyes, so they decided to watch it a second time.
After the movie was released, the crew kept paying attention to online reviews. After finding that many critics praised Li Zhao's shots, they thought of a new promotional point.
But they were too embarrassed to say it directly to Li Zhao. We looked down on you at first, but now we find you are quite useful, so we would like to take you with us to play. After much deliberation, the director shamelessly pulled Li Zhao into the crew.
The director thought that Li Zhao was young and shy, and as long as he proposed, Li Zhao would definitely not refuse. But he didn't expect that Liu Fen would stand up to protect Li Zhao.
Although Liu Fen and Li Zhao are both artists under Strawberry Entertainment, one is a double-awarded film queen and the other is a newcomer with no real achievements, it doesn't seem like they have much friendship.
Liu Fen is a smooth person and should not have stepped forward to protect Li Zhao at this time.
When Liu Fen spoke up, Li Zhao took the opportunity to put the blame on his agent.
After dealing with the director's enthusiasm, Li Zhao was about to quit WeChat when Liu Fen's friend request popped up. He accepted Liu Fen's friend request without thinking twice.
Zhao Zhao has good luck: Hello, Teacher Liu.
Liu Fen: Calling me teacher is too polite. We are all artists from the same company, just call me sister.
Zhao Zhao is lucky: Hello, Sister Fenfen.
Liu Fen has never liked her name, thinking it is too vulgar, but a fortune teller said that with her fate, she must use this name in order to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry. In order to become famous, she endured it.
But every time someone calls her Sister Liu or Sister Fen, I always feel like she is an old lady dancing square dance on the street.
Before, she and Li Zhao had only exchanged politeness on the set of "Storm Rises" and had never communicated in private. Her impression of him was neither good nor bad. She only knew that he was a new star that Strawberry Entertainment was promoting and she must not offend him.
After attending Cang Huan's annual meeting, her opinion of Li Zhao has changed from not being able to offend him to trying to make friends with him.
It was not until she heard the three words "Sister Fenfen" that she finally developed a real liking for Li Zhao.
Boys who can talk are always more likable.
She was happy and talked a few more words to Li Zhaoduo.
Liu Fen: Although "Storm Rises" has only been released for more than eight hours, it has received very high reviews. Many film critics praised your acting skills, and some viewers even bought tickets to watch the movie twice because of your performance, so the crew wanted to bring you along for the promotion. You are a special guest star and publicity work is not within the scope of your contract. In this circle, being easy to talk to will turn into being easy to bully. If the crew requires your cooperation, let them talk to your agent and get the compensation you deserve.
Zhao Zhao has good luck: Thank you Sister Fenfen, I understand.
After receiving the invitation from the crew, Li Zhao's work team did not agree, but asked Li Zhao what he thought.
"I'm going to your house to visit your uncle and aunt at noon tomorrow. The one at 10 pm is fine." Li Zhao glanced at Yan Ting, who was working next to him, and walked to the balcony of the living room with the phone. He lowered his voice and said, "Not today. Today is the first day of the new year. I have to stay at home with my friends."
"More money?" Li Zhao swallowed and turned to look at Yan Ting, who happened to look up at him.
"You can't pay more." Li Zhao said stubbornly, "I promised to spend the first day of the new year with my friends. I can't break my promise."
"Li Xiaozhao, you are no longer the Li Xiaozhao who worked hard for money." Zhang Xiaoyuan sighed, "Son, Dad is very disappointed in you."
"Brother Xiaoyuan, I will tell my uncle and aunt tomorrow at noon that you want to get married and have children, and you can't wait to be a father."
Zhang Xiaoyuan: “…”
Okay, pretend he didn't say anything.
After hanging up the phone, Li Zhao turned around and saw Yan Ting still staring at him. He put away his phone and walked over to him: "What's wrong?"
"Someone asked you out?"
"No, there was a job at the company, but I turned it down." Li Zhao's eyes fell on Yan Ting's temples. Yan Ting's hair was very black and looked very good to touch.
But he just thought about it and didn't do anything.
The two stayed at home for a day. After dinner, Li Zhao really didn't want to waste their precious vacation time: "Tingting, shall we go to the movies?"
"Okay." Yan Ting put down the laptop in his hand: "What do you want to watch? I'll arrange it."
"Whatever, just pick today's box office champion." Li Zhao had been hanging around in the crew all day and had no idea which movies were being released during the Spring Festival.
Yan Ting nodded slightly and handed the ticket booking matter over to Special Assistant Qin.
Movie?
Sir, do you want to go to the movies with others?
Assistant Qin, who is usually calm, was so excited after hearing the news that he didn't even have time to put on his glasses. He called the movie theater chain under Cang Huan and asked them to arrange a supreme VIP seat for Yan Ting.
The cinema quickly provided Qin Xiao with many options.
Considering that Yan Ting didn’t like crowded environments, he chose...the couple’s box.
A private room is called a couple's box if it's used by couples, a family box if it's used by family members, and a friendship box if it's used by friends.
Li Zhao and Yan Ting took a car to the cinema, only to find out that the movie ticket Yan Ting had booked was for "Storm Rises". He secretly looked at Yan Ting, and Ting Ting probably didn't know that he also appeared in this movie.
The movie was about to start, and Li Zhao found that he and Tingting were taken to a small room separately by the staff.
The room comes with drinks and snacks, as well as a comfortable reclining chair.
He looked at all this in a daze. He had never seen the world before. He didn't know that there were such VIP rooms in movie theaters?
"Don't think too much." Yan Ting sat down on the sofa. Even though he was sitting on a lazy sofa, his sitting posture was elegant and noble: "I have money."
Li Zhao: “…”
Yes, you have two buildings and dozens of shops.
Wearing 3D movie glasses, Yan Ting held a large bucket of popcorn in his arms, waiting for the movie to start.
The director of "Storm Rises" is a very successful commercial director. As soon as the movie opens, the scene is extremely dazzling, making the audience focus all their attention on the movie.
There are many handsome men and beautiful women in the movie, and the plot is closely linked. It is humorous where it should be humorous and sentimental where it should be sentimental, and the rhythm is well controlled. Even Li Zhao, who has read the script, was trapped in the plot.
The handsome young man he played only appeared halfway through the movie.
The figures in white and red walked gracefully on the moon, as beautiful as if they were immortals from the Moon Palace who had descended to earth. But when he tripped over the grass on the ground, it became a funny thing.
Until the end of the movie, Li Zhao's character seemed like a vase role that was accidentally cast, and all his actions were to highlight the greatness of the male protagonist.
Until the end of the movie, the hero and heroine ride side by side on horseback, the wind blows up the fallen spring flowers, everything seems like the beginning of a beautiful dream, foreshadowing the beginning of a bright future for the hero and heroine.
The young man in brocade clothes reached out to catch a fallen flower and slowly turned around.
He smiled.
It was clearly spring when flowers were in full bloom, but his smile brought a creepy amusement to the audience.
The camera moves down, and the young man in brocade clothes loosens his hand, letting the flower in his palm fall into the mud. The entire picture fell into darkness.
The movie is over.
From the beginning to the end of the movie, Yan Ting's expression never changed.
"That's what the plot requires." Seeing Yan Ting didn't say anything, Li Zhao thought that he was frightened by his eyes in the movie, so he stuffed the bucket of popcorn into his hand and said, "Eat some popcorn to calm your nerves."
"You acted very well." Yan Ting turned to look at Li Zhao: "You are a great actor."
Li Zhao blushed a little: "Actually, I didn't think it was so amazing when I was acting. The post-production and editing created a very good atmosphere."
"You are the highlight of this movie." Yan Ting said it with certainty, not allowing anyone to refute.
After saying that, he took out his cell phone and prepared to post on WeChat Moments.
His child is so great, he must be praised.
The author has something to say: Teacher: Children, who do you think is the best kid in the class?
Baby Ting raised his hand: Zhao Zhao! Only Zhao Zhao!
After saying this, he glared at the other children, not allowing any objections.
