light and shadow [entertainment circle]

During dinner, Guan Shan carefully raised the issue of Xie Yuan's personality again.

Xia Zhi, who was asked about it, had a blank expression on his face: "Glasses? That's the director's request!" He obviously doesn't have astigmatism, but he had to wear a pair of flat glasses because of the script's requirements.To be honest, Xia Zhi himself is not used to it.

"Why is it gold?" Guan Shan asked again.

"It was given by the stylist." Xia Zhi replied.

"Why again..." Guan Shan stretched out his index finger and middle finger and made a motion to push the glasses, "Push the glasses like this?"

"Otherwise how to push?" Xia Zhi became more and more puzzled, and simply put down her chopsticks. "Brother Shan, what exactly do you want to say?"

Guan Shan always had trouble communicating with Xia Zhi when he came back this time, it was rare for the two brothers to have a peaceful meal, and he didn't want to spoil the atmosphere.Guan Shan casually picked up a spare rib and put it into Xia Zhi's bowl, and said softly, "It's nothing important, let's eat."

Unexpectedly, after three years of not seeing each other, Xia Zhi's temper is just like that child's face, changing as he says.Guan Shan's understatement didn't know which nerve touched him, and made him immediately put down the bowl with a sullen face: "Don't eat!"

It has been nearly two months since he returned to Jianghai, and Guan Shan has reached his limit even after suffering from the violent temper of the summer solstice for nearly two months.Seeing that Xia Zhi turned his face for no reason, Guan Shan finally couldn't bear it and slapped the dining table: "Stop!"

The always strict family education made Xia Zhi freeze in place immediately, not daring to move.

Guan Shan was still sitting in his seat, and said in a serious tone: "I can't control you now, you don't take my words seriously, and you don't take my brother Shan seriously, do you?"

Xia Zhi was silent for a long time, and finally burst out two words unwillingly: "No, yes."

"If you don't, just eat the food for me!" Guan Shanling said.Seeing Xia Zhi standing still and refusing to move, he frowned and added coldly. "Do you still want me to invite you in person?"

As an elder, Guan Shan has gained a lot of prestige after all, Xia Zhi pouted and sat back resignedly.Picking up the bowl, he raised his head and glanced at Guan Shan, Guan Shan's expression was serious; when he picked up the chopsticks, he looked at Guan Shan again, but Guan Shan didn't say a word.So, before a mouthful of rice was stuffed into his mouth, Xia Zhi's tears came down first.A bowl of rice is not enough for three mouthfuls, and the tears have already filled half the bowl.

Guan Shan helped his forehead helplessly, got up and sat next to Xia Zhi, and took the bowls and chopsticks away from his hands.He held Xia Zhi in his arms and remained silent for a long time, before he uttered helplessly: "Obviously you are the one who made Brother Shan angry, why are you crying?"

Xia Zhi refused to make a sound, but buried his head deep in Guan Shan's arms, crying and shaking his head.

Guan Shan couldn't help but laugh. He caressed Xia Zhi's vest and lowered his head to press a kiss on the top of his head. He sighed half helplessly and half fondly, "What a silly boy..."

"I'm not! I'm not!" Unexpectedly, Xia Zhi immediately raised his head when he heard the words. "Brother Shan, why do you always treat me like a child? You won't tell me anything, and won't let me make any decisions! I am no longer a child, I can take responsibility for my own life!"

Guan Shan instinctively wanted to frown, but when he remembered what Kou Jun had said to him, he couldn't help but sighed softly. "Xia Zhi, Brother Shan didn't hide anything from you anymore. Except for that matter, Brother Shan didn't hide anything from you, Brother Shan swears."

"Then just now?" Xia Zhi hurriedly asked.

Guan Shan sighed deeply in his heart, he felt like a reform-through-labourer with a criminal record, and if something bad happened, he would be the first to be suspected. "Brother Shan feels that Xie Yuan's character looks familiar... a bit, like your elder brother."

Xia Zhi blinked in confusion. "Even if it's really an allusion to Big Brother, so what?...In the entertainment industry, this kind of thing has always been very common." On the big screen, the emotions of ordinary people are extremely difficult to impress the audience. Eternal theme.And since "Immortal" is a commercial war film, it is said that art comes from life and is higher than life. How could Ma Jienan not consider drawing materials from real life when writing the script?

Guan Shan rubbed the top of Xia Zhi's hair, and said softly: "Your elder brother has always asked for anything from you, so of course you don't think it's a big deal. You can ask your elder brother's business opponents to see if they think it's no big deal, too?"

"Brother Shan, Big Brother is not asking for anything from me, he is obedient to you." Unexpectedly, Xia Zhi just shook his head calmly after hearing Guan Shan's words. "Big brother cares about me because you care about me. He wants to make you happy. Big brother cares so much about you as a younger brother. Even if this movie really alludes to him, he will not care about it for your sake." Comparable."

Guan Shan's eyebrows twitched, and he hurriedly asked, "Who taught you to say this?"

"No one taught me." Xia Zhi looked directly into Guan Shan's eyes without dodging or fearing, and repeated clearly. "I've grown up. Even if I'm not smart enough, after so many years, I know in my heart whether the people around me are good or bad, and what their purpose is."

Guan Shan's eyebrows twitched again, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother Shan hasn't been by your side these few years, and Brother Chi is busy, did someone make things difficult for you?" The logic of a bear parent who has no bottom line to spoil his children is usually very It's strange, and the specific manifestation is: if your child is sensible, it must not be that he has grown up and matured, but that this dark society has taught him to be a human being.

"I'm the first brother or the boss, who dares to embarrass me?" Xia Zhi squinted at Guan Shan, his eyes were a little complacent and conceited, shining like the stars in the sky, one couldn't look away.

Guan Shan understood, and said sadly: "Our Xia Zhi is very capable, acting can't trouble him. Brother Shan left you alone in the river and sea, making you unhappy all the time, right?"

Xia Zhi's eyes were reddish, she lowered her head and said nothing.

"Brother Shan is wrong. Brother Shan shouldn't ignore your feelings and leave you alone in Jianghai. Xia Zhi, it's Brother Shan who is wrong." Guan Shan grabbed Xia Zhi's hand and pressed it to his face, "Xia Zhi, hit me if you are angry, but don't be so indifferent to Brother Shan, okay? Do you know that Brother Shan's heart will be broken if you treat Brother Shan like this!"

Xia Zhi just shook his head, he put his arms around Guan Shan's neck, choked up and said, "As long as Brother Shan doesn't leave in the future, I won't be angry... Brother Shan, I only have you, don't leave me..."

Guan Shan was heartbroken by Xia Zhi's crying, and hurriedly tightened his arms to hug him even tighter, murmuring repeatedly. "Don't go! Brother Shan will never leave again!... Xia Zhi, Brother Shan is sorry, Brother Shan is sorry..."

After receiving Guan Shan's assurance, Xia Zhi was finally relieved, but tears welled up even more urgently.

Guan Shan couldn't help laughing when he saw it, and asked in a low voice while wiping away his tears: "So, we're reconciled and we don't quarrel anymore, right?"

Xia Zhi conveniently pulled Guan Shan's sleeves to cover his eyes, and after a long time, he gave a low "hmm".

This sound is like hearing the sounds of nature.Guan Shan's heart, which had been depressed for a long time, finally calmed down.

Half an hour later, Guan Shan regretted it. "Xia Zhi, this is not good, is it?"

"What's wrong? It's not like I haven't done it before!" Xia Zhi wondered.

Looking at Xia Zhi's calm and innocent face, Guan Shan really didn't know how to refuse the request to accompany Xia Zhi in the audition. ——So, it would be great if he didn't make peace just now, and he can refuse without any scruples! "Okay... okay," Guan Shan resigned himself to fulfilling his obligations as a "good brother", just like he had done before. "Which part to try?"

"This part! It's going to be filmed tomorrow!" The bright-eyed Xia Zhi hurriedly handed Guan Shan a few pages of the script, with an eager look as if he was afraid that Guan Shan would suddenly go back on his word.

Guan Shan, bathed in Xia Zhi's earnest gaze, read the script biting the bullet.Xia Zhi will start shooting tomorrow a rivalry scene between him and Zeng Yijing. The script says that Xie Yuan invites Jiang Jin to watch the progress of their research and development project and then proposes a joint research and development between the two companies.

Like this kind of business negotiation, Guan Shan has experienced countless times since he started his business at the age of 20, and he is definitely more familiar than any actor's performance.But the particularity of this scene lies in the fact that Xie Yuan and Jiang Jin are not ordinary potential business partners, and there is already a hidden love between them.Therefore, according to Ma Jienan's request, Xia Zhi and Zeng Yijing must deduce the ambiguous atmosphere of doubt and illusion in this absolutely serious business negotiation process.

Not an intimacy scene!After reading the script, Guan Shan's heart suddenly dropped, with mixed feelings for a while, and he didn't know whether he was lucky or disappointed.I saw him sitting on the sofa in the training room, reaching out to the other sofa behind Xia Zhi, and saying: "Since it is a serious business negotiation, with Xie Yuan's heart, he will not easily put his personal feelings on the table." The negotiating table. In this case, the eyes and body language are inappropriate. It must be difficult for the audience to see the ambiguity between them from this scene. From the perspective of the plot, this scene is Xie Yuan It's the first rivalry scene with Jiang Jin alone, just go to the end. Xia Zhi, this shouldn't be difficult for you."

Xia Zhi followed Guan Shan's instructions and sat down opposite him, nodded and said, "To reflect Xie Yuan's specialness towards Jiang Jin, I'm going to use some casual little actions to show it. This is really not difficult. What really makes me feel difficult to grasp is Xie Yuan The identity of the president. How can I make him look like a serious president instead of a president who is only in charge of dating? Brother Shan, if it were you, facing this kind of potential business partner who was once a close friend, what should you do? How to deal with it?"

"It will be more relaxed." Guan Shan said without hesitation, "Xiazhi, China has always been a society of personal affection. Although it is in the mall, sometimes talking about friendship is more effective than talking about interests."

"Is that so?" Before Guan Shan finished speaking, Xia Zhi had already slumped lazily on the sofa.

"Don't make trouble!" Guan Shan came forward angrily and amusedly, put one hand on Xia Zhi's shoulder, and the other on Xia Zhi's back. "Relax your shoulders and straighten your waist. Remember, you can't lose your momentum at any time in the mall, you have to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside."

Under Guan Shan's correction, Xia Zhi's shoulders sank slightly and her waist straightened, her eyes also changed instantly in line with her posture.Although he was still wearing an ordinary casual jacket, his shrewd and capable demeanor was already evident.

Guan Shan was obviously very satisfied with Xia Zhi's ability to get into the drama quickly, and reminded softly: "When friends meet, the tone must be friendly; but when inviting partners, you have to be careful. For those who are superior, the tone must be slow, and they will have confidence if they are not rushing or slowing down. Alright, let's get started!"

"I haven't seen you for three years since I graduated from university. How is it? How have you been all these years?" Leading Jiang Jin to visit the company's R&D department, Xie Yuan naturally brought him into his office.Since the group of subordinates who followed the two had been ordered to rest, Xie Yuan could only make a cup of coffee for Jiang Jin himself.

"Not bad!... Strictly speaking, it's like a fish in water." Jiang Jin took off his suit jacket and threw it on the sofa, and fell into the sofa with his whole body sprawled. "It's just that without you as an opponent, it is inevitable that I will feel a little lonely." Xie Yuan and Jiang Jin both studied computer science when they were in the United States, and both of them were talented in software research and development, which can be said to be bright for a while.

Xie Yuan, who was holding two cups of coffee and turned around, was taken aback when he heard the words, and after a while, Fang smiled and handed over the coffee cup. "Mandheling, I wonder if it suits your taste?"

Jiang Jin, who was frowning and wrestling with the tie knot, did not reach out to pick it up, but pointed carelessly at the coffee table in front of him.

Holding the coffee, Xie Yuan stared at Jiang Jin strangely for a while, since he took the position of president of Sixun, few people dare to order him like that.But in the end, Xie Yuan just smiled helplessly, and obediently placed the cup of coffee on the coffee table in front of Jiang Jin.

"Phew! Finally tore it off! Almost strangled me!" Jiang Jin, who finally tore off the tie, frowned and threw the outrageously expensive tie aside in a ball, casually as if Throw a piece of worthless rotten twine. "If it wasn't for Sister Ai's insistence, I wouldn't be wearing this thing!" Jiang Jin's critical eyes fell on Xie Yuan, who was still well-dressed. After a while, he suddenly "tsk" and asked inconceivably. "Xie Yuan, how can you bear it?"

Xie Yuan laughed dumbfounded, and said gently: "This is Huaxia, not the country of America. I am the president of Sixun, and I always have to be decent when I go out. Wearing a T-shirt and denim is to make people laugh."

"Decent..." Jiang Jin repeated these two words lightly, and suddenly smiled unpredictablely. "You've always been a decent person."

Xie Yuan was suffocated for some reason, he looked up at Jiang Jin.Jiang Jin also looked back at Xie Yuan without fear.The four eyes met, and the eyes of both of them were calm and calm.

A few seconds later, Xie Yuan was the first to look away. "Ajin..."

"Okay!" Unexpectedly, before Xie Yuan could say anything, Jiang Jin had already spoken out. "I've seen your history too. If you're a brother, let's get straight to the point! What's the purpose of coming to me today?"

Being interrupted by Jiang Jin again, Xie Yuan couldn't help being startled again, his flustered eyes fell unconsciously on the cup of coffee in front of Jiang Jin. ——Jiang Jin never touched this cup of coffee.Realizing this, Xie Yuan's right index finger suddenly trembled slightly, and when he raised his head again, he had already returned to his usual immobility. "That's right, there is a problem with the 'Tianji' smartphone operating system that Sixun is developing recently..."

Jiang Jin asked with a strange expression: "You don't mean to hire me, do you? ... to work for the company that is my enemy, my father will kill me!"

"Cooperation is cooperation." Xie Yuan smiled and said every word. "Sixun cooperates with Centec."

Jiang Jin was dazed for a long time, and after a while he managed to force out a sentence: "Xie Yuan, how dare you think about it!" After a pause, he added another sentence with a helpless expression. "I can't be the master of this kind of thing."

Xie Yuan grabbed a document from his desk and threw it at Jiang Jin, and said angrily: "I know you can't make the decision, so please be the messenger."

"Understood!" Jiang Jin took the document and stood up.

"Leave now?" Behind Jiang Jin, Xie Yuan asked quietly.

"It's rare for Sir Xie to honor me and ask me for help. Can I not do something special?" Sir Xie, this is the nickname Xie Yuan was given to him by his classmates when he was studying in the United States.It means that no matter when and where, no matter what the circumstances are, Xie Yuan will always keep the aristocratic personality perfectly intact, as if he has passed down hundreds of generations and even a salted fish in his family contains the supreme glory of his ancestors .The previous sentence seemed to be a joke, but Jiang Jin's voice in the latter sentence obviously cooled down. "Besides, isn't that why you came to me?"

Xie Yuan nodded, but responded politely and coldly: "Thank you."

"You're welcome!" Jiang Jin opened the door and walked out without looking back.

Until there was no more sound outside the door, Xie Yuanfang rubbed his eyebrows and sighed wearily.The coffee on the coffee table was already slightly cold, but he still leaned over and took the cup of coffee that belonged to Jiang Jin and sipped slowly.For some reason, this lonely posture makes people feel... a bit pitiful.

"Okay! Card! This one is over!"

Following the order of director Ma Jienan, the audience applauded to celebrate the successful completion of today's shooting task.Only Guan Shan, who was sitting on the sidelines, had complicated emotions, as if he was ashamed and a little unspeakably throbbing.

The author has something to say:

Jiang Jin: Isn't that why you came to me?

Director Ma: Actually, it can be for other things.

Xie Yuan: ...
