Chef God who doesn't want to be an actor is not a good idol

Not long after New Year's Eve, Du Ruo, who was resting at home, suddenly received a call from Song Zhengqing, saying that he had arrived in Haicheng and asked him to meet at a Chinese restaurant.

The Chinese restaurant that Song Zhengqing invited was an old-fashioned restaurant in Haicheng, and it had a good reputation in Haicheng. When Du Ruo came to the restaurant, it was full of people.He was wearing a baseball cap and a camel coat. After asking the waiter in a low voice, he quickly found the box reserved by Song Zhengqing.

The air conditioner was turned on in the box, and there were only Du Ruo and Song Zhengqing, there was nothing to be polite between them.Du Ruo relaxed as soon as he entered the box, took off his coat, and put his baseball cap on the small table next to him.

"Happy New Year." Song Zhengqing raised his head with a smile, and pushed another order form in front of Du Ruo, "This restaurant's crystal shrimp dumplings are very famous, and the crab roe soup dumplings are also good."

Du Ruo was very familiar with the place, so the order was delivered quickly and early.When he saw Du Ruo in the box, the waiter brother looked a little surprised, but he didn't make a sound, but quickly exited the door after delivering breakfast.

Du Ruo and Song Zhengqing haven't seen each other for a while.

Speaking of which, Du Ruo's big-screen debut was also Song Zhengqing's debut film, but when they first filmed "I Heard", neither of them could have imagined that the film would achieve such a huge success.

After "I Heard" was released, Du Ruo's salary went up a whole notch, and even with the film resources he could get access to, he went straight up several steps. Song Zhengqing also officially stepped into the director's industry, and used After that, two consecutive films proved his directing ability.

But also because of this, when both of them are busy, although they still keep in touch, there are really not many opportunities to meet later.

This time Song Zhengqing came to Haicheng suddenly and invited Du Ruo to dinner, Du Ruo already had a vague guess in his heart.When Song Zhengqing took out a script from his bag and handed it to Du Ruo when he was almost used up earlier, he was not surprised.

But after receiving the script and seeing the name on the cover, Du Ruo still had a hint of surprise in his eyes.

""404"?" Du Ruo didn't open the script, and whispered a monologue, "The story between me and him was buried forever in the cold 404."

"Have you seen it?" Song Zhengqing was a little surprised when he heard Du Ruo's words.

"404" is a short story in Chinese that has won many international awards. It has been published 20 years ago, but it is still a good story that many people talk about. This novel will be included in the year-end voting of "The Novel You Most Want to Be Adapted into a Movie" by Starlight.com in [-].

And the sentence that Du Ruo uttered was a classic monologue uttered by the protagonist at the end of the original novel.

And for so many years, "404" has been a novel that many directors and screenwriters are eager to try but dare not take it lightly. One of the important reasons is that the two protagonists of this novel are both men.

Although same-sex marriage has been legalized all over the world, for actors, after appearing in this type of movie, it will definitely bring some controversy about sexual orientation. The unbinding of CP will be more difficult and more difficult to clarify.Therefore, when facing this kind of subject matter, actors still feel somewhat hesitant.

"I saw it by chance." Despite all kinds of concerns, Du Ruo didn't have any need to deny it when faced with Song Zhengqing's question, and easily admitted it.

It's just that Du Ruo hesitated about Song Zhengqing's next invitation.

No one spoke in the box for a long time, only the sound of flipping papers could be heard.

"404" is a good enough short story, and the adapted script in front of me is also enough to touch people's hearts, but what makes Du Ruo daunted is not entirely the subject matter of this movie, but also the personal reasons surrounding him.

"I need to think about it carefully." After a long silence, Du Ruo still gave this tentative answer. He didn't reject it outright, but he didn't immediately agree either.

"If you don't mind, I'd like to take this script home and read it carefully."

When Song Zhengqing saw Du Ruo's decision, a trace of regret flashed across his face, but he also agreed to Du Ruo's taking the script back.He was able to find Du Ruo so eagerly, because he put Du Ruo at the top of the list.Although Du Ruo didn't agree for the time being, as long as he didn't refuse, there was still a chance.

The two separated at the entrance of the Chinese restaurant, but they didn't notice the flashing lights on the side of the road.

***

Before Du Ruo arrived home, the photo of him and Song Zhengqing parting at the entrance of the Chinese restaurant was uploaded by Yuji to Xingguang.com with a shocking headline, which made the netizens who clicked on it speechless for the first time.

【...Looking at the title, I thought there was a new love affair exposed 23333】

[Hahahahaha——I laughed so loudly, yes, they are together, everyone in the circle knows (狗头.JPG)]

Netizens couldn't help laughing out loud because of the contrast between the news and the headline after being teased speechless by the headline at first.

But other details were also noticed.

【Is no one curious, what are Du Ruo and Song Zhengqing talking about when they meet?Do you cooperate? 】

[Or the two just haven't seen each other for a long time, and want to have a meal or something? 】

[Speaking of which, Du Ruo hasn't joined the group yet, and Song Zhengqing hasn't moved for a while since his last film was finished...]

【I have a bold guess...】

【Me too……】

[! ! !Could it be possible to see the director and leading actor of "I Heard" reunite? (Rub your little hands.JPG)]

[Same request!I pay ten catties! 】

News spread wildly on the Internet, and when public opinion was frying, Du Ruo also received a series of fatal calls from Chen Mo.

After all, he and Song Zhengqing met in private and were photographed, which caused Chen Mo, who was still on vacation, to work extra overtime. Du Ruo had no choice but to express his apology to Chen Mo consciously.

Not to mention that he still holds the script of "404" in his hand.

After finishing the call with Chen Mo, Du Ruo continued to read the script of "404", but became more and more entangled with it, couldn't help sighing, and rubbed the space between his brows.

The adaptation of "404" that Song Zhengqing handed to Du Ruo is undoubtedly an excellent work, and the issue of the subject matter will not be a constraint on his choice before he confirms the relationship with Wen Qi.

But it was precisely because of the current relationship between Du Ruo and Wen Qi that he was shaken about whether to accept the script.

Until the night of the video call with Wen Qi, Du Ruo was still thinking about the script. Although he was only distracted for a short period of time, Wen Qi, who had been paying attention to him, noticed that something was wrong with him.

"What happened?"

"Get a new script..."

"Did Song Zhengqing give it to you when we met during the day?" There was so much news on the Internet, so Wen Qi naturally knew about it.

Seeing Du Ruo on the other side of the video nodding, with a hesitant look on his brows, Wen Qi asked calmly, "How's the script?"

"The script is good, but..." Du Ruo slightly sighed, "This is an adaptation of "404"."

"404" is a well-known short story, so naturally Wen Qi is not unaware of it.

In all fairness, judging from Du Ruo's perspective of choosing scripts, the script that can make Du Ruo say "good" must not be bad.

But Wen Qi also understood the reason for Du Ruo's hesitation.

Song Zhengqing took the initiative to hand over the script to Du Ruo. It is impossible to just play a cameo role, so there are only two options left.

"Which role do you want to audition for? Zhou Lixin? Or Tan Jia?"

"Zhou Lixin."

Wen Qi looked at the person exposed in the video call. He was completely bare-faced, with a touch of fatigue in the corners of his eyes. He was wearing a light blue sweater and sitting on the bed, with a half-read script spread out in his hand. He had never shown himself in front of others. A lazy and natural look.

Wen Qi's fingers curled up slightly, restraining his urge to immediately rush to the person on the other side of the screen and hug him into his arms.

"Since you think the script is good, then accept it."

Hearing Wen Qi's words, Du Ruo frowned a little, with surprise in his eyes.

Wen Qi kept Du Ruo's reaction in his eyes, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly: "Actually, I think..."

"I can try the role of Tan Jia."
