"Zixing, after the short film is finished, when will you come back?"

On Monday morning, when Xin Zixing opened her eyes tiredly, she saw the message Liu Qiao sent her an hour ago.

It's only half past eight in the morning.

It was equivalent to the message Liu Qiao sent her at 7:30.

The short film was shot last night at 3am.

In order to meet the deadline, I had to stay up late to complete the filming.

After the filming, Lu Yanhe left by car late at night because he had to catch up with today's class.

She stopped paying attention to the follow-up and finishing work. She was really exhausted and went back to the hotel to sleep.

It takes almost an hour to drive from the set back to the hotel.

She fell asleep deeply as soon as she returned to the room. She didn't know how long it took before Huang Kairen, who came back in another car, took the room card she gave him and swiped in.

Both of them were too tired and did nothing, so they just fell asleep holding each other.

As a result, this damn biological clock still made her wake up in a daze, and then she saw such a message.

"..."

Huang Kairen was still asleep, with no sign of waking up at all.

Xin Zixing sent a message back to Liu Qiao and asked, "What's wrong? We didn't finish work until three o'clock in the morning yesterday."

Liu Qiao's call came the next second.

The cell phone rings.

Xin Zixing hung up the phone for a second and looked back at Huang Kairen.

Huang Kairen seemed not to hear anything, and the sound did not disturb his sleep.

Xin Zixing breathed a sigh of relief.

She gently lifted the quilt, got out of bed, went outside, and passed it to Liu Qiao.

"Mr. Liu, what's so urgent?"

Liu Qiao said: "Zixing, let me ask you, have you ever thought about leaving the Ye Vein Network?"

Xin Zixing had just woken up from her sleep, and she was still a little confused. She was suddenly asked by Liu Qiao, and was stunned for a while. She didn't come back to her senses for a long time - mainly because she was wondering, why did the news spread so quickly? She hasn't told many people about this matter yet. All she knows are her closest people, so it's impossible for them to leak it.

"No, who said I was leaving Yemai.com?" Fortunately, Xin Zixing had already anticipated such a situation when she was thinking about leaving. She had only thought about how to face it, and it only took her one second. I sorted out my thoughts and said, "Who is spreading rumors about me behind my back?"

When Liu Qiao heard what Xin Zixing said, he took a deep breath and said, "That's good. I thought you were really mad at some of the things that happened before."

Getting carried away?

A question came to Xin Zixin's mind: Why did she think Liu Qiao was a pretty good superior who understood and supported her?

"You should come back quickly. This news has spread like wildfire. The company's senior executives are also asking me what's going on. Some people say they want to investigate you."

"Investigation?" Xin Zixing asked in disbelief, "Mr. Liu, you mean to investigate me just because of such a rumor and rumor?"

"Of course I don't agree. Don't worry, can I still watch you being bullied like this?" Liu Qiao said.

"This is not a matter of bullying or not. I think maybe the company really wants me to leave as soon as possible." Xin Zixin sneered and said.

Liu Qiao: "How could that happen? You are our great hero, who wants you to leave? I will let him go!"

Liu Qiao's tone seemed to be a little angry.

"Maybe I want to do too many things, which makes some people dissatisfied." , I have learned this skill more or less under the influence of my ears and my eyes, "To be honest, I have been hitting a wall in the past six months, and I can't do anything I want to do. It is completely different from what it was a year ago or two years ago. No matter what I did before, You will support me in whatever I want to do, now..."

Xin Zixing sneered softly and sighed.

"Zixing, you have to understand that a big tree attracts wind." Liu Qiao said, "The achievements you have made now have threatened many people? It is normal for many people to want to suppress you, but no one can take away your achievements. Let’s go, as long as you hold on, no one will be able to block your light.”

Xin Zixing only heard a voice deep in her heart asking softly: So, my grades also threaten you, right? -

The moment he heard the bell ringing, Lu Yanhe felt a sense of relief.

He was really too sleepy. He felt drowsy after listening to the lecture. To be honest, his efforts to stay energetic later only prevented him from closing his eyes and falling asleep immediately. In fact, he couldn't listen to what the teacher was saying at all.

Lu Yanhe thought to himself, how do the people he saw in movies, TV series, and novels who were as good as chickens after staying up all day and night still show up energetic the next day?

There is no such thing as having the best of both worlds. Human energy is limited, and if you take care of one end, you will lose the other end.

Lu Yanhe sighed.

Zhou Mukai asked Lu Yanhe if he wanted to go to the cafeteria to eat.

Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "I'm too sleepy. I'm going back to the dormitory to sleep."

There were classes in the afternoon, so he could only use the time at noon to catch up on some sleep.

Zhou Mukai nodded when he heard this, knowing that Lu Yanhe rushed back early yesterday morning.

"Would you like to bring you a lunch?"

"If you have any bread or steamed buns, bring me one. You don't have to bring food. I can sleep a little longer." Lu Yanhe said, "If I can't get up, you must wake me up."

Zhou Mukai smiled and nodded, "Okay."

-

Xiao Jing and Mao Jiayang rarely saw Lu Yanhe taking a nap in the dormitory. This scene shocked them.

Lu Yanhe rarely sleeps in the dormitory. Secondly, Lu Yanhe rarely takes a nap in the dormitory.

Usually at noon, Lu Yanhe would study by himself in the library or in an outside classroom.

Mao Jiayang and Xiao Jing also talked about this in private, saying that it was no wonder Lu Yanhe was successful. Successful people are very energetic, and those who lack energy have long been eliminated.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Yanhe was woken up by Zhou Mukai.

Lu Yanhe sat up with a troubled face and looked under the bed at a loss.

The lights in the dormitory were dark, and everyone just turned on their desk lamps in their respective seats.

"I have to go to class. I'm at Zijiao in the afternoon. It's a bit far. I have to leave early." Zhou Mukai said.

Lu Yanhe let out a long yawn and let out an ooh.

Mao Jiayang asked: "Boss, what time did you go to bed last night?"

"I...I finished shooting at three o'clock, and then I slept all the way in the car. I woke up and down. I don't know how long I slept." Lu Yanhe said.

"It's hard work, tsk tsk, you are a role model for our generation." Mao Jiayang sighed jokingly, "It's too easy to get involved as a roommate with you. Every time I want to be lazy, I don't dare to stop when I think of you. ”

"But don't. I want to stop but I don't have time. I don't dare to stop because I'm afraid that if I don't seize the opportunity now, I won't get any opportunities in the future." Lu Yanhe said, "If I didn't have those little indulgences, I would If the opportunity is lost, I will not trouble myself with so many things and find fault. How good is the balance between work and rest. "

Mao Jiayang: "Damn, I thought you really liked to be busy, and couldn't stand that every minute of your time was wasted. I was still thinking, bosses are bosses, and we are all fighting against our own laziness. At that time, you completely overcame the weaknesses of human nature and rushed forward every day like a chicken.

"Please don't create such an image of me outside."

Mao Jiayang laughed.

Mao Jiayang asked: "Do you still have a job in the future?"

"Not yet." Lu Yanhe said, "Originally, I didn't take on too many jobs this semester. This short film was taken on temporarily. I will still be very busy later, but there are not so many things to go to other places."

Mao Jiayang nodded.

"I also want to ask you, when will you go to my hometown to film your program "City Travels"?" Mao Jiayang asked, "My parents really want you to come there, and they keep asking me when you will be together. Go play.”

"Do you want this show to be filmed at your place, or do you want Yan He to go to your place to play?" Xiao Jing asked.

Mao Jiayang said: "Of course I hope you all, and it's not just him, my parents have always wanted you all to come and play at our place."

Lu Yanhe said: "I have told the program team about your place a long time ago, but I don't know if it is a scheduling problem. I have never had any plans to shoot in Dongbin. I will ask again. However, if you have time, We can go to Dongbin by ourselves first."

Mao Jiayang said: "Our place doesn't look good in winter. Let's go next summer. There will be things to eat, see and play."

Xiao Jing: "Next summer, we will finish our junior year and will be our senior year. Do you have time? We won't all go for internships, right?"

Mao Jiayang said: "I've thought about it, and I decided to go to graduate school. My grades should be preserved by the school. What about you?"

"Me too." Xiao Jing said, "I am also planning to go to graduate school, but I may decide to go to Yuming. I have cooperated more with Yuming teacher Zhang Ting and I want to do it with him."

Zhou Mukai: "I haven't decided yet."

Lu Yanhe said: "Me too, I haven't thought about it well."

As a top-student dormitory, the four people in their dormitory all maintain pretty good grades. Of course, Lu Yanhe's grades are slightly weaker, and it's still unclear whether he can get a place for graduate school - his grade point ranking can only be considered average in the college, which is on the fringe of graduate school.

In fact, Lu Yanhe has been repeatedly struggling with the question of whether to go to graduate school.

He has basically made it clear that he will definitely develop in the entertainment industry in the future. For him, getting a master's degree is optional. However, Lu Yanhe felt that there was no harm in reading more books. If conditions allowed, the more books he read, the more he would accumulate, and he would have a more solid understanding of culture, literature, art, aesthetics, and characters. basis of understanding.

However, going to graduate school means that classes will continue to affect his work in acting, which means that problems like last night and today will appear frequently. Should learning influence acting, or should acting influence learning?

It’s hard to get the best of both worlds.

At this time, an unexpected phone rang.

It turned out to be Liu Qiao, the content editor of Yemai.com.

No, it’s Mr. Liu now.

Lu Yanhe was really confused about this sudden call.

Xin Zixing usually contacts him on Yemai.com. Although Liu Qiao has contact information, they usually only greet each other during holidays and have no more communication.

"Hello, Mr. Liu?" Lu Yanhe answered the phone and greeted somewhat unexpectedly.

Liu Qiao smiled and said, "Yan He, are you at school?"

Lu Yanhe: "Yes."

"I'm here to visit a professor in your school. Would you like to have dinner together later tonight? With Professor Zhao Dezhong."

Zhao Dezhong is a highly respected professor in the School of Liberal Arts. He is also very influential in the industry and has a high academic status.

Lu Yanhe was surprised and didn't know why Liu Qiao came to visit Professor Zhao Dezhong.

However, after all, he is a professor in his own college, and Lu Yanhe also admires Professor Zhao Dezhong. If he has the opportunity to have dinner with him, Lu Yanhe will certainly agree.

-

In the evening, Lu Yanhe arrived at the restaurant where he was going to eat ten minutes early.

The hotel is in the school, and it is a hotel contracted by someone else.

When he arrived, Professor Zhao Dezhong had not arrived yet, and Liu Qiao was the only one in the private room.

"Mr. Liu." Lu Yanhe smiled and said hello.

Liu Qiao stood up to greet Lu Yanhe enthusiastically and said, "Why are you so young? Just call me Brother Qiao."

Lu Yanhe smiled and called Brother Qiao calmly.

For this kind of face-related matter, Lu Yanhe doesn't have any mental disorder and refuses to shout or anything. It's just a matter of title. If others want to show closeness by calling him, then just get close to him.

Anyway, what is true cannot be false, and what is false cannot be true.

Liu Qiao said: "I have told Zi Xing a long time ago that I want to invite you out to talk about cooperation, but you are also very busy and it is difficult to find time. This time I came to Zhenhua to visit Professor Zhao. I heard from Zi Xing that you will come back today. It’s time for class, so I’ll try to make an appointment with you to see if you can come.”

Lu Yanhe smiled and said: "Brother Qiao, I have been working with Yemai.com for such a long time, and Sister Zi Xing has also helped me a lot, so there is no need to be so polite between us."

Liu Qiao nodded, "Zixing and you have indeed maintained a very good relationship. Our Yemai Network has achieved such results thanks to your unremitting efforts in publicity and in-depth cooperation. I know this very well in my heart. I took you last time I am also very angry about not being a spokesperson for marketing, but you have to believe that Zi Xing and I are firmly opposed to this matter. After this incident happened, we both raised serious issues in the company about this matter. ’s opposition and this will never happen again.”

Lu Yanhe smiled and said: "Brother Qiao, my problem is on the one hand. What I didn't expect is that even the relationship between Sister Zi Xing and Brother Kai Ren can be used for marketing. We are artists, and we are used I am here to entertain everyone. Although I don’t want to, I must accept it. Sister Zi Let me tell you, I'm a bit wary of you. Although interests are important in the business world, ethics are also important. If we only care about interests and not ethics, why should I continue to put the electronic version of "Jump Up" on your Yemai website? , our cooperation is for a one-year contract. Is there no other platform that offers a higher price? I believe you know it, not to mention various cooperations, such as "City Travels". Like this short film with director Wang Zhong, to put it bluntly, we trust you because we have had happy cooperation before. When it comes to business, Yemai.com is not the most sincere business."

Lu Yanhe's words were hard and soft, and he put heart-wrenching words into Liu Qiao's ears inch by inch.

Liu Qiao had a bitter smile on his face.

"Oh, I also know that I really have a hard time talking about this matter."

Lu Yanhe blinked in surprise and looked at him with a puzzled look on his face, as if asking: "What are you trying to say?"

Liu Qiao was stunned.

He didn't expect that Lu Yanhe would act out of common sense.

At this time, shouldn't we add a sentence or two to express our sympathy for his "suffering" situation?

Alas, he is still a child after all.

Liu Qiao sighed silently in his heart.

Lu Yanhe didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. If he knew, he would only sigh, he is only 21 years old, how can he still be an adult?

Well, he is considered an adult. But it’s not an exaggeration to pretend to be a college student who has no experience in the world.

Liu Qiao smiled, still smiling a little bitterly, and added, "Although I am also in charge of the content business now, the company's strategic deployment is not just mine, nor is everything controlled by me. I have the final say."

Lu Yanhe frowned slightly and said, "Is that so? I thought all I needed to do at Yemai.com was to have a good relationship with Mr. Liu. No matter what happens, Mr. Liu, you can handle it. There is no need to contact others. In fact, I am. Because I am familiar with Yemai.com, I am a bit lazy and don’t want to establish new cooperative relationships with other platforms.”

Liu Qiao was so choked by Lu Yanhe's words that he didn't know what to say.

"Of course your matter is different, Yan He. What you have with our Yemai.com goes beyond an ordinary cooperative relationship. To the users of Yemai.com, you are almost intertwined with Yemai.com over the years. Your There is a great overlap between fans and users of Yemai.com. On our website, your support rate and user favorability are unparalleled," Liu Qiao said. "Besides our Yemai.com, it is difficult to find anyone else. This is the second website that has such a high degree of overlap with your fan base.”

In fact, what Liu Qiao said was not wrong.

Indeed.

For Lu Yanhe, his cooperation with Yemai.com is almost impossible to replicate.

When the two parties began to cooperate, it was when the wind started to rise, and each other was integrated into each other's development route, until where it is now.

This experience cannot be replicated.

Just like an artist, when does his fans become the most enthusiastic?

When your career is on the rise, it's like working hard and struggling with your idol - watching him fight monsters and upgrade all the way to the top.

That was a period of time.

Today, Lu Yanhe has reached a certain height, and he can no longer gain a group of fans who watched him step by step from the live broadcast room to today and participated in the entire rise.

They are different from other fans after all.

Therefore, the core meaning of Liu Qiao's words is here.

Of course, the leaf vein network requires Lu Yanhe. But doesn’t Lu Yanhe need a leaf vein net? Don't they have a symbiotic relationship?

If Lu Yanhe loses the platform of Yemai.com, it does not mean that he will lose many fans, but it means that he will lose a large gathering place for fans, and it is a long-term and fixed gathering place.

Lu Yanhe smiled slightly at Liu Qiao and said: "Brother Qiao, Sister Ziyan said to me that good cooperation must be mutual recognition, mutual respect and mutual promotion. Yemai.com and I have indeed achieved this before, Right? But can we continue to do this in the future? I believe that if you have the final say on Yemai.com, there will never be anything like using me to be a spokesperson for marketing, because you respect me, but Qiao Brother, if Yemai.com is made by someone who doesn’t respect me, I think I can’t just swallow it because you respect me, what do you think?”

At this time, Liu Qiao completely put away the impression that Lu Yanhe was just a child.

"I heard Zi Xing say before that you were hesitant about going to graduate school." Liu Qiao immediately changed the topic with a smile, "Professor Zhao actually plans to bring a graduate student this year. Maybe you can have a good discussion with Professor Zhao. There is gain.”

Lu Yanhe was stunned for a moment, and then he felt relieved——

It turns out that this meal is waiting for him here tonight.

-

Xin Zixin sneered and raised the corners of his mouth.

Huang Kairen is sitting opposite her.

They had dinner together tonight and found a new restaurant to try something new.

When I first sat down, a camera flash that I forgot to turn off flashed from time to time next to me.

Huang Kairen and Xin Zixin were used to it, so they pretended not to see it.

Anyway, it has been made public, so everyone can take pictures of it.

Huang Kairen and Xin Zixin are not too shy about this.

Of course, the service in the restaurant is still quite good. Especially since Huang Kairen's visit to this restaurant is a big drawcard, they certainly don't want Huang Kairen to have a bad dining experience here. Therefore, without Huang Kairen's request, the restaurant manager took the initiative to ask two waiters to carry a screen over, creating a relatively independent and closed space for them to isolate them from the surrounding eyes.

Thanks to this screen, Huang Kairen didn't have to worry too much when talking to Xin Zixing.

After all, nowadays, many people even take videos and have someone analyze their mouth movements to see what they say.

"What's wrong?" Seeing the sneer on Xin Zixing's lips, he asked.

Xin Zixing put down her phone and said, "Liu Qiao went to see Yan He tonight. Yan He just complained to me."

Huang Kairen frowned slightly.

"What do you mean? Is Liu Qiao overstepping your reach and wanting to contact Lu Yanhe directly?"

"Maybe, after all, Yemai.com can accept my leaving, but it can't accept Lu Yanhe's leaving." Xin Zixing said, "That's the bad thing about being behind the scenes. The explicit value is not highlighted, and the ability is strong. At the top, In the eyes, it is still just a replaceable mule. No matter how capable a mule is, it is still a mule. People will only hope that it will work more and longer, rather than letting the mule take over. "

Huang Kairen asked: "Is Liu Qiao sure that you will leave Yemai Network?"

"Whether I leave the leaf vein network or not, he has already begun to weaken my sense of existence." Xin Zixing said, "If it weren't for what he said to me, I still haven't figured it out. I always feel that it's Zuo Yu was targeting me, but it was Zuo Yu who blocked my way. Now think about it, without Liu Qiao's acquiescence, how could I have completely failed in my career in the past six months, without any support? There was a threat. He said so many things to me that day, but the most crucial ones were these two sentences. "

Huang Kairen: "It's okay. Losing you is his loss and also the loss of Yemai."

"Believe it or not, the day I leave Yemai.com will be the beginning of Yemai.com using your and me's stories to promote marketing."

"Since they want us to do marketing to attract traffic, why should we let his family take advantage of this?" Huang Kairen said, "Then we will interview him in 17 or 18 media outlets and see where he starts with marketing."

Xin Zixing looked at him in shock.

"Then you must die from exhaustion?"

"It's better than you dying of suffocation." Huang Kairen said, "They will take advantage by then. With your character, it would be strange if you are not so upset that you can't sleep at night."

Huang Kairen hit the mark.

Xin Zixing was too embarrassed to refute.

It's true.

Xin Zixing said: "Do you know what bad tricks Liu Qiao used?"

"What bad move?"

"I mentioned to him before that Yan He had not yet decided whether he wanted to go to graduate school. He invited a great professor from Yan He College and expressed his willingness to recruit Yan He as a graduate student." Xin Zixing said, "Originally Yan He was still He was hesitating whether to go to graduate school, because after tonight's interview, he declined the professor directly, saying that he was not considering going to graduate school for the time being, and would focus on acting in the future. "

Huang Kairen was stunned.

"You just refused?"

Xin Zixing said: "Yan He's personality is like this. You should never provoke him. Don't be fooled by his friendly appearance and his sincerity and kindness. If you really provoke him, he will not care about your interests and will rather die with you than live in disgrace."

Huang Kairen realized that Xin Zixing knew Lu Yan He much better than he did.

Huang Kairen was inexplicably jealous.

"You...know Yan He so well?"

"Look at how many projects I have cooperated with him. Different jobs have different experiences. Of course I know him well." Xin Zixing stared at Huang Kairen, "Don't be jealous of me like this."
