light and shadow [entertainment circle]

After leaving the restaurant, Guan Shan didn't go back to the company or contact Tang Chi, but drove all the way home instead.And Tang Chi also knew that no matter what the outcome of Guan Shan's discussion with Lou Yi was today, Guan Shan needed time to digest alone, so he thoughtfully did not harass him.

At home, the quiet and open space is like a tomb.Xia Zhi had already been sent by Guan Shan to the flight to Hawaii a week ago, and even the servants had fallen asleep near the middle of the night.After returning home, Guan Shan didn't turn on the light or take off his coat, but sat silently in the dark and finished a whole bottle of black cards.

Just when I was slightly drunk, the phone rang suddenly at this time.Guan Shan took out his phone in disgust, and was about to press the switch off button, but saw the words "Xia Zhi" clearly written on the caller ID.In the next second, Guan Shan's brows that were originally knit together softened suddenly, and he connected the phone.

"Good morning, Brother Shan!" As soon as the call was connected, Xia Zhi's energetic voice rushed out of the phone impatiently.

Guan Shan stared blankly at the dark house, then took the phone away from his ear to check the time.It took a few minutes before he realized that there was still an 18-hour time difference between Hawaii and Jianghai.The midnight of Jianghai City was exactly 6 am of the previous day in Hawaii. "Good morning." Even though he was preoccupied, the corners of Guan Shan's mouth would unconsciously raise when talking to Xia Zhi. "Why don't you get some more sleep?"

"Don't sleep anymore, the sun is about to rise. The sea breeze is very comfortable, I'm going out for a run." Xia Zhi's breathing was a little faster than usual when he spoke, obviously his morning run was still going on.

Xia Zhi was still shouting at the sky until the moment before boarding the plane, accusing Guan Shan of being domineering and ignoring human rights.But it's only been a week, and you can tell by the tone of his voice that he's no longer thinking of leaving.What a little kid!Guan Shan sighed secretly in his heart, and asked softly, "Where is this?"

"Diamond Mountain!" On the other end of the phone, Xia Zhi had already entered the underground tunnel of Diamond Mountain.After all, it was still early. Although there were tourists in the underground tunnel, the number of them was very small, and the tunnel was still empty.He casually pressed the light button on the watch and walked while running. "Brother Shan, I thought of how to play An Ning."

Guan Shan sent Xia Zhi away in order not to let him know about Lou Yi and dirty his ears.But at that time, Xia Zhi had the same thought as Kou Jun: since he offended the officials, he had to run away with a sense of loyalty, so he refused to leave desperately.In order to perfunctory him, Guan Shan randomly assigned him a homework, asking him to use this vacation to figure out how to play the role of An Ning.Guan Shan originally thought that when the summer solstice came to Hawaii to visit the mountains and rivers, he would have forgotten the homework he had given him.Unexpectedly, he still remembered. "How do you act?" Guan Shan laohuai comforted, and the question immediately softened by three points.

"I want to reduce the number of scenes!" Xia Zhi replied seriously, "I found that the focus of the script of "Family" was not stable, and too many weighty and deep plots were all given to An Ning alone, which is unscientific! Brother Shan said that human nature is Complicated, simply dividing by good and evil is not only simple and rude, but also inferior."

Based on Xia Zhi's two words, Guan Shan knew that Xia Zhi had indeed thought about the script of "Family" seriously, and he didn't just shout "I don't want to be miserable" just based on my simple feelings after reading the script.Although Guan Shan knew that the filming of "Family" would be a waste of time, he didn't want to easily dampen Xia Zhi's enthusiasm, so he asked patiently: "How to reduce it, do you have any ideas?"

"For example, An Ning's two older sisters resented their mother for sacrificing them for an unrelated son. It is understandable that they would like to go to the hospital to take care of their sick mother, but after all, it is the mother and daughter who always have feelings for each other. , so they should secretly pay the hospital for medical expenses.

"And An Ning's adoptive father, after all, a husband and wife, although he can't save face and forgive his wife, but maybe he will secretly go to the hospital to work as a nurse, taking the opportunity of taking care of others to take care of his wife?

"The most difficult thing is An Ning's grandma. She is stubborn and difficult to persuade. But she is so old and has been so stimulated. Where does she have the energy to curse every day? She should fall ill? Maybe life and death At this time, let her see more.

"...And An Ning's biological father, there are too few scenes! After revealing An Ning's life experience, he disappears. It feels like an NPC. How is that possible? Since An Ning is a good and filial child, he will definitely not ignore his biological father. Ah. If it were me, I would try every means to get in touch with him, even if it was email or an anonymous netizen, at least ask what kind of person my biological mother is. And..."

"Stop, stop! Stop!" Xia Zhi still had more to say, Guan Shan couldn't help shouting to stop. "Xia Zhi, if you continue to change like this, you will change from a leading role to a supporting role!"

"But this is just a group portrait show!" Xia Zhi answered him as a matter of course.

Guan Shan's heart was surging, and he was speechless for a while.After a long time, he said quietly: "Xia Zhi, everyone in this circle only wants to be the protagonist, not a supporting role."

"My god Kang Nan said that this kind of people only want to show off and make money, but don't think about acting well, so I don't want to imitate them."

"Really... do you like acting so much?" Guan Shan was silent for a while, his voice almost sighed.

"En!" Although Guan Shan couldn't see it, Xia Zhi still nodded firmly. "Acting is my dream."

"Aren't you afraid of hard work?"

"Don't be afraid! Those who can persist are called dreams, and those who cannot persist are called fantasy." Xia Zhi said firmly.After a while, he screamed excitedly again. "Ahh! I'm here! I've reached the top of the mountain! You can really see the sea here! The sea is so blue! The scenery is so beautiful! Brother Shan, why aren't you by my side?"

When Guan Shan heard the words, the apex of his heart melted into a puddle of water.He couldn't help closing his eyes, slowly recalling what he saw and heard when he traveled to Hawaii in college.Diamond Mountain is a famous scenic spot in Hawaii. It is rumored that Captain Cook, who was the first to discover the Hawaiian Islands in history, saw a sapphire-like blue light from the entire top of the mountain at night. He thought it was a diamond, so he named it. For Diamond Hill.When Guanshan went on a trip, he chose to climb the mountain at night to verify the veracity of the rumors, and he missed the invincible sea view on the top of Diamond Mountain, which has been praised by countless tourists.And now, when he heard Xia Zhi yelling "The coastline is so beautiful!" and "Look! I saw shells! There are corals!" on the phone, Guan Shan seemed to be in the beautiful Diamond Mountain, Overlooking the beautiful scenery of the entire Ouhu Island.Before he knew it, his whole body relaxed, his muscles were no longer tense, and his expression was no longer anxious. He slowly took off his tie, loosened his neckline, and found a comfortable position on the sofa to lie down. Whispering. "Xia Zhi, Brother Shan will always be by your side..."

This sigh was really too light, Xia Zhi didn't hear it.At this moment, he was watching obsessively the red sun breaking through the sea surface, getting out of the clouds, and rising slowly.That round of red sun is like a bright and full flawless red diamond, generously sprinkled thousands of golden rays, illuminating the blue waves and reflecting the morning glow. The lush vegetation was dyed golden.So warm and gorgeous, and so magnificent and quiet, the world suddenly opened up.Xia Zhi was completely conquered, he stared blankly at the rising sun, and whispered in a sleepy voice: "Brother Shan, the sun has risen..."

"Is it beautiful?" Guan Shan asked.

"Beautiful..." Xia Zhi sighed.

"louder please!"

"gorgeous!!"

"Louder!"

"It's so beautiful!!!" Xia Zhi put her hands to her mouth and shouted loudly.

At this moment, Guan Shan also laughed out loud without any scruples.It seemed that the bright fireball far away in Hawaii had traveled through the vast space and time, and descended forcefully and gently on the room where he was.The red is as bright as a flame; the light is as dazzling as a torch; the heat is as vigorous as a volcano.In an instant, the darkness faded, and the light was brilliant.

On the top of Diamond Mountain, Xia Zhi stood alone on the edge of the cliff, facing the long waves of sea wind, blue sky and white clouds, stretching his waist.In mid-air, thousands of golden threads descended, as if they had put on a golden battle armor on him, and he was extraordinarily handsome and handsome like a god.

Xiao Jian, the little assistant who has been following Xia Zhi like an invisible person, endured and endured and finally couldn't bear it anymore. She quietly raised her mobile phone to take a picture of this scene, screaming in her heart: ah ah ah!God!I would almost die for him!

Saying goodbye to the reluctant Xia Zhi, Guan Shan got up and sat down on the sofa again, crossed his hands in front of his lips and remained silent for a while.A few minutes later, he picked up the phone again and dialed the number hidden in the phone, but he had never made it for many years.It was nearly one o'clock in the morning, and Guan Shan didn't know if the call could still be made.But he knew that he would not hesitate any longer, he would persevere to the end for his own dream, for Xia Zhi's dream!

Mo Yue waited for more than ten seconds before the call finally connected.On the other end of the phone, a gentle and sleepy male voice came over: "Xiaoshan?"

"...Brother." Guan Shan took two deep breaths and finally spoke out. "I have encountered a little problem in the business field, and I want to ask you to help me."

Hearing this sentence, Guan Hai, Guan Shan's elder brother and the current president of Guan's Digital Industry Group, immediately asked, "About Torch Newspaper Group?"

Guan Shan laughed, it was no surprise that Guan Hai knew his current situation like the palm of his hand. "Brother has been waiting for my call?"

"Yes." Guan Hai didn't hide it, he got off the bed, went to the kitchen and made himself a cup of coffee to refresh himself. "Xiaoshan, you are my younger brother. My father is gone, and my eldest brother is like a father. Of course I will look after you. If you don't call me tonight, I will contact you tomorrow morning."

Guan Shan was quiet for a while without speaking.He knew that what Guan Hai said was from the bottom of his heart, and he had always been a good brother.However, the complex interpersonal relationship of the Guan family and Guan Shan's own special identity made it impossible for him to truly rely on Guan Hai as his big brother. "I know that asking Guan to help Guangying is a loss-making business. But I will definitely work hard, and in the future, all shareholders of Guan will be glad that they didn't make a wrong choice. Now Guangying under my name holds shares..."

"Xiao Shan!" Guan Hai was not happy when he heard that Guan Shan was going to use light and shadow to do his own thing. "Do you have to be so clear with your elder brother?"

Guan Shan didn't answer at first, after a while Fang said in a deep voice, "Brother, we are talking about business."

Guan Hai on the other end of the phone took a deep breath.But after all, he has lived in the world for a long time, and he is very good at nourishing his energy, so he quickly calmed down again. "...Forget it, we can talk about the compensation later. But my brother Guan Hai has no turn to be bullied by Lou."

Although Guan Shan asked Guan Hai to take action, he knew that this was indeed a difficult problem. "Brother, the Torch Newspaper should not be underestimated, and the Lou family also has some connections with the government."

When it comes to business matters, with Guan Hai's status, he is no longer afraid of anyone. "Severe and soft inside! The Guan family has always had a close cooperative relationship with the government. How much the Lou family is worth is better than your elder brother. Lou Yi is indeed a bit capable, but it is a pity that Lou's parents are too conservative and have missed the best opportunity for network development." Timing. If the Torch Newspaper hadn’t been in full decline, Lou Yi would not have taken the initiative to acquire Guangying. Torch Newspaper looks like a giant, but in fact it’s already rotten inside.” Speaking of this, Guan Hai couldn’t help but point it out. One sentence. "Xiaoshan, don't let your own feelings affect your judgment. A mere summer solstice can't affect Lou Yi's decision-making, nor should it determine the life and death of light and shadow."

Now, even Guan Shan is not happy. "Brother, Xia Zhi is my younger brother!"

"Lele is also your younger brother!" Guan Hai retorted without thinking.

"It is enough for him to have a big brother." Few people know that Guan Shan and Guan Le are not related by blood.And Guan Le is younger than Xia Zhi, and the age difference between the two is too big, so of course they don't have any feelings for each other.In Guan Shan's heart, Guan Lingxi is really not a good father.First, he betrayed his wife and cheated easily, and then he refused to divorce for the sake of money and power.Guan Lingxi wanted to enjoy the blessings of Qi people, but he underestimated his wife too much.

Lin Kangxian, who was once a college classmate with Guan Lingxi, is not only Guan Lingxi's good wife in life, but also Guan Lingxi's most loyal and capable partner in career.Guan's Digital Industry Group can have the status of today's Jianghu, Lin Kangxian has made great contributions.Even after the Kwan Group's business was on the right track, Lin Kangxian did not return to the family to take care of his husband and children, but struggled with his husband for decades at the forefront of his career.How could such an independent and capable woman be willing to endure her husband's betrayal?

Not long after she learned of Guan Shan's existence, she hooked up with someone and gave Guan Lingxi a big green hat.Even Guan Le is not Guan Lingxi's own flesh and blood.Lin Kangxian used such a decisive method to force Guan Lingxi back to the family with the shares in his hand and the face of the couple.Guan Shan didn't care how miserable Guan Lingxi's life was after returning to the family, but he always felt sorry for Guan Hai.As for the existence of him and Guan Le, the person who was hurt the most should also be Guan Hai.

Guan Hai couldn't help sighing again when he heard the words, thinking that he was born in a wealthy family with extraordinary abilities, who in the shopping mall would not stand down when seeing him, and respectfully call "Mr. Guan"?Only two stubborn younger brothers can make him sigh in vain. "Sometimes, elder brother really envies Xia Zhi. He is so stupid that he doesn't understand anything. He still doesn't know what happened, right?"

"Xia Zhi's innocent heart is not without responsibility. It's just that I, as an older brother, don't want to stain his eyes with these dirty things." Guan Shan said softly.

"But my big brother is different from your Shan brother!" Guan Hai's tone suddenly became serious, "The first condition, Xiao Shan, big brother hopes that you will expand the territory of light and shadow to the capital within two years." After a pause, he added two more sentences. "No matter how good the commercial development of Jianghai City is, it is not the capital city after all. The capital city is the place where wind and clouds meet. You can only see the distance from a high ground, and you will not be easily frightened by others."

"I will, big brother." Guan Shan knew that this was Guan Hai's request and encouragement to him, so he readily agreed. "I have another unfeeling request. I hope Lou Yi can keep quiet and don't say anything that shouldn't be said, involving Xia Zhi.... For a star in the entertainment industry, reputation is really the most important thing."

"What do you mean...to make him suffer failure, to prevent him from committing another crime, and to shut him up obediently...tell me, Xiao Shan, do you know what this means?" Guan Hai asked with a smile.

Guan Shan's eyes flashed, and his eyes were cold like never before. "I just learned it from Lou Yi today. To deal with the enemy, those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me perish, or don't do it, and do it absolutely!" And this is also the reason why Guan Shan didn't look for Shen Lv to find Guan Hai.Only because Shen Lv, who was still inexperienced in his methods, Guan Hai, who had already dominated the business and government for many years, was able to put Lou Yi to death!

"Very good! I promise you." Guan Hai gently hung up the phone.

The author has something to say:

Guan Hai: You don't know anything about power!

Lou Yi: ...
