Fringe artists in the entertainment industry

Chapter 398 396. You don’t love me at all

"It's hard to go out and watch a movie now." Chen Li'an complained while letting Li Dabai dress him up.

Li Dabai straightened Chen Li'an's scarf and said, "Okay, this looks good."

Chen Li'an looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but complain: "You think it looks good, but you think I'm robbing a bank."

"Even if you rob a bank, you are still the most handsome one." Li Dabai pulled Chen Li'an out without giving him a chance to refute.

It was very cold in Beijing in early January, and the roads were covered with snow. Li Dabai pulled Chen Li'an, unwilling to drive to the cinema, so he had to walk.

"It's been a long time since you stayed with me for such a long time." Li Dabai put his hand in Chen Li'an's pocket and said with a smile: "I just want to walk slowly and make time pass slower."

Chen Li'an was silent for a while. He was indeed in no mood during this period.

However, after having a daughter and living with Jennifer and Li Dabai for a while, he obviously felt that his mental state was much better.

In Dabai's words, living is to please yourself.

Under the street lamp, Li Dabai rested his head on Chen Li'an's shoulder, looked at the slowly falling snowflakes, stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake, and the cold snowflake melted in his hand.

"You are like this snowflake, it melts in your hand and cannot be kept."

Chen Li'an put his arm around Li Dabai's shoulders and joked: "I'm not as short-lasting as snowflakes. No matter what, I have to be as hard as the ice in Jishuitan."

"Why are you so out of shape? It was so romantic just now."

Li Dabai was still immersed in the melancholy atmosphere he created just now, but Chen Li'an's words broke his guard. He couldn't help but bump into him while leaning into his arms.

Chen Li'an smiled and said, "What's romantic? You're just caught up in your own emotions. You feel like you are like the heroine in the novel."

"Ignore you!"

Li Dabai angrily took his hand out of Chen Li'an's pocket, took two steps forward, secretly grabbed a handful of snow, and turned back to throw it at Chen Li'an.

Bang, the soft snowballs fell on Chen Li'an and scattered, and his black coat was covered with snowflakes.

"Rebellion, you dare to throw me." Chen Li'an also took a snowball and threw it over.

Li Dabai laughed while avoiding Chen Li'an's snowball. His silver bell-like laughter was like an elf in the snow on this winter night.

The two of them laughed and laughed all the way to the cinema. Chen Li'an and Li Dabai sat at the back of the cinema, watching Ge You on the screen and couldn't help but laugh.

"It's pretty good. The box office is now high, and Director Feng is pretty good." Li Dabai whispered to Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an hummed and said, "It's okay, but I still went to the United States to shoot. It's a public trip."

"The movie will be done once it's finished." Li Dabai didn't feel comfortable saying anything. It was an extramarital affair, and he and Chen Li'an were not in any good shape.

The only difference is that Chen Li'an is not married and does not have an official girlfriend, but there is actually no difference.

The movie is quite funny, but in Chen Li'an's opinion the characters are too superficial, and he doesn't like this kind of script.

However, there will really be no market for artistic films in the next few years, and there will be more and more commercial films. This is the development trend of the film market, and Chen Li'an is also happy to see it happen.

After watching the movie, Li Dabai and Chen Li'an came out hand in hand. They stepped on the hard snow for a while before saying, "I haven't been to the company these days. Many people have guessed that you are back."

Chen Li'an said lazily: "I know, I know, it's almost the Chinese New Year, so I can't be lazy."

"Yes, you can find another place to be lazy, otherwise I will be wearing little shoes in the future."

"Drive me away?"

"How dare I."

"I see you are quite courageous. If you go back tonight, you will be finished."

"Play every day. If you've had enough, go find someone else to play with."

Find someone else, just find someone else. Chen Li'an left the next day. Li Dabai sat at home and looked at the empty house. She was still a little used to no one calling her to play ball.

At Meiren Chen's house, Chen Li'an was playing with her children. When he saw Meiren Chen, who had been busy on the phone, he asked, "Why are you so anxious?"

"What else could it be? There's something wrong with Daming Palace Ci again." Chen Meiren sighed, looked at Chen Li'an and said, "I've invested so much money, but it hasn't been filmed yet."

Chen Li'an let go of his hand holding his son's face and asked, "Hasn't it been a few months since the project was established? Why hasn't it been turned on yet?"

"The script has been revised over and over again, and there are always problems with casting. The actor Li Shaohong is interested in is not willing to act." Chen Meiren couldn't help complaining: "The setting problem is also very troublesome. Li Shaohong is too demanding. On the one hand, it demands restoration of history, but the plot is not in line with history. I really don’t know what to say.”

Chen Li'an glanced at her and said calmly: "Then divest the investment. It's just a TV series."

"It's not as simple as you said." Chen Meiren's eyes flashed and she sat next to Chen Li'an and asked tentatively: "Do you have any plans to film recently?"

"Didn't you set your sights on me?" Chen Li'an looked at her with a strange expression and said, "I don't want to act in a TV series, it's time-consuming and labor-intensive, and as you said, I won't act in this drama because the plot doesn't fit with history. "

Chen Meiren sighed and said, "Okay, I just know it won't work."

"Li Shaohong asked you to ask me?" Chen Li'an asked curiously.

Chen Meiren nodded and explained in detail: "She originally came to see Jia Hongsheng, but he didn't like it, so she wanted to find you to play the role."

"I'm still a substitute."

Chen Li'an couldn't help but shook his head, but he had acted in several Jia Hongsheng movies, so it didn't matter if he was a stand-in for someone else.

"Actually, I quite want to act in this drama." Chen Meiren said with some pity: "If you want to act in it, I will act in it."

"Didn't you say you would quit acting?" Chen Li'an pinched his son's little face and said with a smile, "Son, look at your mother, she's been setting traps for me all day long."

Chen Meiren pursed her lips. She liked this role very much. She looked at Chen Li'an and rolled her eyes and said, "Li Shaohong said, if you act, the artists in our company can fill in as many roles as they want."

Chen Li'an snorted and said, "If she doesn't give me a try, she really thinks it's a joke to invest millions."

Chen Meiren said helplessly: "Okay, I know you don't want to, but the script is really good, don't you read it?"

"Don't seduce me with the script, you might as well wear black stockings."

Beauty Chen lifted up her pants, exposed her ankles, stretched them out in front of Chen Li'an and said, "What about this?"

Chen Li'an glanced at his son with his little hands open, and finally sighed and said to him: "Son, it's not that dad doesn't love you, it's that your mom is too good at it, and dad will play with you later. "

Chen Zhiyu, who was sitting in the stroller, watched helplessly as his father carried his mother into the bedroom, babbling several times but no one could make Chen Li'an look back.

I forgot about my son when I had a wife.

In the bedroom, Meiren Chen was lying on her side on the bed. She raised her legs and slowly lifted her trousers up a little. She hooked her little feet and said in a seductive voice: "There is also a passionate scene between you and me in the script. We are dressed in ancient costumes. Don’t you want to try it?”

Chen Li'an chuckled and said, "Then I'll give it a try first and see how the script goes."

Chen Meiren raised her fingers at Chen Li'an and said, "Come on, let me see what you can do."

"I guarantee that the princess will be satisfied!" Chen Li'an shook off his clothes and walked over.

Beauty Chen let out a sweet cry, and before she could react, Chen Li'an placed her legs in the shape of a golden arch.

The long night was long, it was freezing and snowing outside the window, but there was a lot of passion in the bedroom.

When he woke up the next morning, Chen Li'an looked at the clothes and broken stockings thrown on the ground, and he got up and tidied them up honestly.

How happy I was to tear it apart last night, but how embarrassing it is to clean it up now.

After packing up, Chen Li'an also went to the study to read the script. Last night, he promised Chen Meiren to read the script. If he liked it, he would accept it. If he didn't, he would reject it.

Chen Li'an has never watched Daming Palace Ci. He doesn't like watching TV series very much. If it's a movie, he knows what the script is by just hearing the name. But for TV series, he basically only hears the name.

Even for such a popular TV series as Huanzhu, he only knew the name, but didn't know anything about the plot.

Chen Li'an read the script for half an hour in his study and felt that the lyrics of Daming Palace were quite interesting and a representative of feminist dramas.

Even if it takes more than ten years, few dramas can surpass it.

It was indeed an interesting script, but Chen Li'an wasn't very interested in it. He threw it aside after reading half of the script. What's the point of all the female dramas?

He would definitely be interested in playing Ming Dynasty 1556. This kind of drama is only interesting if it's all about men.

At noon, Chen Meiren called back and asked Chen Li'an if he had read the script. Chen Li'an said that he was not very interested, which made Chen Mei's teeth itch.

Meiren Chen really liked this drama, otherwise she wouldn't have invested so much money in Li Shaohong. In the end, the company ran out of money and asked Chen Li'an for the money.

Sitting in the office, Chen Meiren looked at the script of Daming Palace Ci, and after a while she made up her mind to call Mr. Zhou.

"Do you have time to meet?" Chen Meiren said straight to the point.

Mr. Zhou was very curious about what Beauty Chen wanted to do with him. He put down the script he was reading and said, "If you have time, where can we meet."

"Where are you? I'll go find you."

"at home."

After Mr. Zhou told Mei Chen his address, he was a little confused as to why Chen Meiren suddenly came to see him.

She basically had no contact with Chen Li'an's women. The only ones she had close contact with were Gong Li and Ning Jing.

She was not familiar with Chen Meiren's circle. She only said hello occasionally when she went to the company. As far as she knew, Chen Meiren always had a fierce fight with Gong Li, and Chen Li'an would compete even if she bought a gift for her child.

Mr. Zhou thought for a while and then stopped thinking about it. Let's wait until Beauty Chen comes.

After a while, Chen Meiren arrived. She didn't have any reaction when she looked at Mr. Zhou's villa. It was about the same size as her own.

However, after Young Master Zhou opened the door for her to come in and showed her around, Chen Meiren's expression became unhappy.

"Who painted that painting for you?" Chen Meiren looked at Mr. Zhou and asked.

Mr. Zhou said doubtfully: "Li'an painted it, you should have it too, right?"

Chen Meiren's eyes dimmed for a moment, then she raised a smile and said, "Yes, but I don't think it's Li An's style. I'm curious to ask."

"Oh, this is Li'an's early style." Mr. Zhou explained casually, not taking it to heart.

In Mr. Zhou's opinion, Chen Li'an must have painted for Chen Meiren. Isn't this his basic operation, just like collecting trophies.

Chen Meiren glanced at Mr. Zhou's painting hanging by his bedside, then turned around and followed Mr. Zhou out.

"What brings you to see me today?" Mr. Zhou asked curiously as he poured a cup of tea for Chen Meiren.

Chen Meiren was thinking about the painting now. After hearing Mr. Zhou's words, she said: "Didn't you take the role of Taiping? Li Shaohong wanted to ask Li An to play it, but he was unwilling and wanted you to persuade him. "

Mr. Zhou frowned and said, "Why should I force him if he doesn't want to? I don't care about this matter. Let him decide for himself."

Chen Meiren looked at Mr. Zhou intently, as if she suddenly understood why Chen Li'an loved her so much.

Chen Meiren, who was in a bad mood, had no intention of chatting with Mr. Zhou now. She just took a sip of tea and left on the pretext that something happened in the company.

Looking at Chen Meiren's leaving figure, Mr. Zhou muttered: "It's weird."

On the way back, Chen Meiren felt her chest was congested. She had given birth to Chen Li'an's child, but she couldn't compare to Mr. Zhou.

Why does Chen Li'an paint for others but not himself? And judging from Mr. Zhou's previous reaction, it seemed that only people who Chen Li'an valued would have the same reaction.

Don't you have a place in Chen Li'an's heart?

Chen Meiren suddenly thought of Gong Li and became even more irritated. She parked the car on the side of the road and wanted to call Gong Li, but the phone stopped halfway.

No need to ask, Gong Li must have it.

Chen Meiren was filled with frustration. She had always thought that she was a very important woman in Chen Li'an's heart, at least as important as Gong Li and Mr. Zhou, but now it seemed that she was not.

"Who else did he paint for?" Chen Meiren was suddenly afraid that everyone else had it but she didn't.

Chen Meiren sat in the car for a while before she came back to her senses and said to herself: "No, no one else should have either."

Chen Meiren dug out a pack of cigarettes in the car and lit them quietly. The half-opened window allowed cold wind to blow into the car.

After a long time, Mrs. Chen calmed down, threw away the cigarette butt, started the car and headed home.

When Chen Meiren returned home and opened the door, she looked at Chen Li'an, who was lying on the sofa watching TV with her son in her arms. She suddenly felt so wronged, and tears rolled around in her eyes and then she was held back.

After Chen Meiren took two deep breaths, she changed her shoes and went in. She smiled, sat down next to Chen Li'an, reached out and hugged her son, and said, "Did you have fun with dad today?"

"Happy~"

The sound of her son's cuteness almost made Chen Meiren's emotions well up again.

Today's unexpected discovery made Chen Meiren feel that everything she had done before was fake, and all her efforts for Chen Li'an were useless. She had never entered his heart.

The only thing she got was her son. Looking at her son who opened her arms to hug him, Chen Meiren held him in her arms tenderly and couldn't help but shed a tear from the corner of her eyes.

Chen Li'an looked at the tears on the back of his hand, raised his head and looked at Chen Meiren's red eyes, and fell into deep thought.

Does she really want to act with her?

Chen Li'an remembered that Meiren Chen had said that she wanted to act in a play with her a long time ago. She still remembered it after so long, but she had long forgotten it.

Chen Li'an felt his heart soften when he saw Beauty Chen, hugged her and said, "Stop crying, I will act and act in a play with you."

I was so focused on writing that I forgot to send it, and I still have to exchange the leave request slip! I'm so stupid, let me forget it. There's another chapter to wait for twenty minutes.
