Hey, your overlord is broken

001

At eight o'clock in the evening, City B was brightly lit.

Chu Yuanxiao parked the car, picked up the white scarf on the passenger seat and wrapped it around his neck twice.

Get out of the car, close the door.

At the beginning of March, the evening wind carried a distinct chill. He lifted the edge of his scarf to cover his mouth and nose, put his hands in his pockets, and walked into the gate of Junhao's private restaurant in a leisurely manner, and found Chunliu Hall by familiar ways.

The waiter standing at the door saw his eyes light up.

Obviously, even though the scarf covered most of his face, the waiter recognized him at a glance.

"Mr. Chu, your friend has already arrived, let you come and go in directly."

Chu Yuanxiao nodded slightly, pushed the door open and entered the room.

Qi Xiang, who was reading a novel on his mobile phone, raised his head when he heard the voice, and laughed when he saw Chu Yuanxiao.

He put his phone on the table, stood up and said hello: "Brother Chu, I've already ordered a few dishes, what do you want?"

There was heating in the room, Chu Yuanxiao tore off the scarf, didn't look at the menu, just asked Qi Xiang what he ordered, and casually added a piece of chicken soup.

"That's it."

Looking up and seeing the dark circles under Qi Xiang's eyes that couldn't be covered by thick-rimmed glasses, he frowned slightly: "Have you not slept for a few days?"

"So obvious?" Qi Xiang took out his phone and switched it to selfie mode, took off his glasses and looked at it carefully, and sighed, "It's also my fault for being too white. Director Fu is staring at me to change the script these days. If you don't sleep much, just rest for a few days."

Qi Xiang is indeed very white, but it is the kind of white that is stuffy from not going out for a long time without seeing the sun. He doesn't have much blood color. Looking at him, he feels weak and unhealthy.

Chu Yuanxiao showed disapproval: "I know you value "Cheng Xian" very much, but you should also pay attention to your body."

"I know." Qi Xiang agreed positively, "The body is the capital of the revolution. I will definitely pay attention to it."

He sighed again: "It's just "Cheng Xian". No matter which novel is adapted in the future, I will not be the screenwriter, at least not the lead screenwriter. I almost scratched myself bald. It’s still comfortable to write novels, and I can write whatever I want.”

Qi Xiang's pseudonym is Qi Tian Da Sheng, he is a well-known fantasy god, "Cheng Xian" is his masterpiece, has countless fans, and has been rated as the most valuable super ip.

Now "Cheng Xian" is going to be made into a TV series, and Qi Xiang, as the main screenwriter, has been busy with the script for a long time.

The waiter quickly served a dish, and the two chatted while eating.

Qi Xiang said: "The script has basically been finalized, and Director Fu decided to start casting roles in a week. Although Mr. Yan said when selling the copyright, he said that the main role candidates would consider my ideas, but the copyright is in the hands of Tangyuan Films, and he is As the main investor, the hero and heroine must be his artistes, at most I can only fight for the role of the second female or second male."

President Yan, that is, Yan Hao, the president of Tangyuan Films, personally came forward five years ago and bought the film and television copyright of "Cheng Xian" from Qi Xiang.

Chu Yuanxiao and Qi Xiang have known each other for a long time, and they have always been very optimistic about the value of "Cheng Xian". As soon as the book was finished, he proposed to the company to buy the copyright, but the company rejected it. It didn't take long for Qi Xiang to say that the copyright had been sold.

When he heard the news, Qi Xiang hadn't signed the contract yet, but had just negotiated the price. If he knew that he wanted to buy the copyright, Qi Xiang would definitely give him priority.

But he didn't say anything.

Tangyuan Films offered 800 million—a price that was quite high a few years ago, and even 500 million was too much for the company, so it’s useless to say more.

"Thank you," Chu Yuanxiao knew that Qi Xiang was not chasing stars, and fighting for the role was ultimately to help him gain resources, "I will take Shan Shuiling to the audition then."

Shan Shuiling is the only artist he brings with him now.

Qi Xiang nodded when he heard the words: "Okay, I will greet Director Fu in advance."

He believed in Chu Yuanxiao, and he also knew that Shan Shuiling had good looks and acting skills, so he wasn't afraid that she would play the second female lead.

The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and more than an hour passed after chatting casually.

Qi Xiang looked at the time and said, "Let's stop here today. I'm going to the pet store to pick up the little white dragon. I haven't seen him for a week. I made a video call with him yesterday. He only cares about the owner and doesn't even look at it." Me, I have to get in touch with it when I have time, otherwise it might not recognize me as its master."

When it comes to the back, with a bitter face and a guilty conscience, I am still a little apprehensive.

Xiaobailong is a dog raised by Qi Xiang, a lively and smart golden retriever, who has a temper when he is unhappy, even Qi Xiang is afraid of losing his temper.

Chu Yuanxiao didn't have the slightest bit of sympathy: "Why don't you just go home and pick up the dog? This matter can be explained clearly on the phone, or it's the same when we go to your house for a gathering."

"How can it be the same?" Qi Xiang rubbed his full stomach, and walked out together with Chu Yuanxiao, "If I go back directly, I definitely won't have a chance to eat, and if I don't eat enough, how can I have the energy to fight wits and courage with Xiao Bailong? "

Chu Yuanxiao was speechless.

He wrapped the scarf around his neck, because his body was very warm after eating, so he didn't wrap it around, but lowered his head and pulled it so that both ends hung down by the same length.

When the two were still five or six meters away from the gate, a group of people came in from outside the gate.

There are four people in total, all of whom are acquaintances.

Walking in the front was Yan Hao, the president of Tangyuan Films, whom Qi Xiang had mentioned during the meal.

The other three are Tian Guangting, President of Youshi Video, Wan Dafa, President of Wantong Cinemas, and Fu Meng, a well-known director.

The investor and chief director of the TV series "Cheng Xian".

Obviously, they got together to discuss matters related to "Cheng Xian".

When we met head on, we couldn't even avoid it.

Chu Yuanxiao was slightly startled, then put on a decent smile, and was about to lift his foot, when Qi Xiang on the other side had already rushed in front of him, and extended his hand to greet them with a smile.

"Mr. Yan, Mr. Tian, ​​Mr. Wan, Director Fu, good evening."

Several people shook hands with him, Director Fu said: "Xiao Qi, there is a plot that I am wondering if I can change it, and I will discuss it with you tomorrow."

Qi Xiang's smile stiffened slightly, and he nodded in response.

Chu Yuanxiao also greeted several people.

He has been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years. Although he is not a star, he is well-known as a gold medal manager and recognized as the "No. [-] Beauty" in the entertainment industry. Even if he has not cooperated with these people, he has met them many times.

"Isn't this Chu Mei...Young Master Chu? It's a pleasure to meet you."

Tian Guangting said that Chu Meiren shrank back in fright at Yan Hao's cold eyes.

The rumors of Xindao are true, Mr. Yan is the most rigid and old-fashioned, he hates handsome men, especially men and men.

Thinking of this, even the outstretched hand immediately retracted.

Wan Dafa was not so sensitive, he stretched out his hand directly, and said with a smile, "Master Chu hasn't brought any new people in these few years, and there are few new faces in the circle."

Chu Yuanxiao shook hands with him with a natural expression: "Mr. Wan was joking. I think the girl signed by Yan's head office not long ago is very spiritual and has a bright future."

Tangyuan Films signed a girl not long ago. Hu Xiaoxiao is Wan Dafa’s niece. She is only 19 years old and is still studying at the Film Academy. Because of the beautiful photos that flow out from time to time, she is called the campus goddess. She has no works yet, but she is quite popular. .

Hearing this, the smile on Wan Dafa's face deepened, his eyes were squeezed into slits due to his fat face.

Yan Hao looked coldly at the hands they held.

The dull Wan Dafa also felt the chill, and quickly let go of his hand.

He smiled and looked at Qi Xiang: "Xiaoxiao, that girl likes to read your novels very much. I heard that "Cheng Xian" is about to start filming, and I really hope to have the opportunity to play a role. I think her image is similar to the girl described by director Fu. No. [-] is very suitable. I heard Director Fu said that you want to choose the female No. [-] yourself, but Xiao Xiaofu doesn't meet your requirements?"

It's no secret that Qi Xiang and Chu Yuanxiao have a good relationship. Qi Xiang worked hard to get a No. [-] role, and then met Chu Yuanxiao. Everyone can guess who he won that role for.

Wan Dafa heard that his niece said that he wanted to play the second female role, and he thought that he was an investor, and his niece was also a signed artist of Yan's head office.

Unexpectedly, in the car just now, Mr. Yan and Director Fu both said that the second female lead was chosen by the lead screenwriter. He wanted to find a time to meet the lead screenwriter Qi Xiang, but he didn't expect to meet so soon.

Realizing that Qi Xiang was going to give the second female lead to Chu Yuanxiao, Wan Dafa couldn't calm down. Looking at the attitudes of Mr. Yan and Director Fu before, it was obvious that he was not going to help him with the second female lead, so it was best to let Qi Xiang Xiang made a statement in front of everyone.

Since the chief screenwriter is asked to choose, let him choose. Wan Dafa still doesn't believe that he can not give investors face.

Chu Yuanxiao's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes were slightly cold. It was obvious that Wan Dafa wanted to compete with him for the second female role.

"Xiaoxiao...who is it?" Qi Xiang was confused, scratched his hair, and smiled embarrassedly under Wanda's slightly stiff face, "I usually seldom pay attention to entertainment news, but she can like me I am very honored to write novels, and I will try my best to write better novels in the future."

Never mention anything about the female second.

Wan Dafa refused to give up: "The second female..."

"I know how to write stories, so how can I choose roles? I handed over the second female lead to Brother Chu to help me find it." Qi Xiang said seriously, "Brother Chu helped me a lot when I wrote "Cheng Xian". He Knowing each role, as well as actors in the entertainment industry, I believe he will definitely help me find the most suitable female second actor."

Speaking of this, Wan Dafa didn't have the nerve to pester him endlessly, but his face was very ugly.

At this time, Yan Hao suddenly stepped forward and walked in the direction of Chu Yuanxiao.

His face was expressionless, his dark eyes were cold and cold, and he stared at Chu Yuanxiao closely. He was over 1.9 meters tall, while Chu Yuanxiao was only 1.7 meters eight. The height difference made him feel more oppressive as he got closer. feel.

A faint smell of tobacco that did not belong to her came, and Chu Yuanxiao's face and body froze slightly. Just as she was thinking about where she had offended this person, she only heard Yan Hao speak lightly.

"Give Way."

Chu Yuanxiao: "..."

There was clearly a large space next to him, so could this person only walk in a straight line?

No matter what he thought, he immediately took a few steps to the side.

As he walked, the scarf around his neck slipped to one side, and he hurriedly grabbed it with his left hand, only to find that the other end was in the hand of Yan Hao who had just passed him.

"Eh……"

His eyelids twitched, why did Yan Hao pull his scarf...

Oh, in fact, Yan Hao didn't do anything, but the scarf was wrapped around his cufflinks.

He just said, how could Yan Hao, who was not pleasing to the eye but serious and serious, make such a move?

Yan Hao stood still, looked down at the cuff buttons, and frowned with sharp eyebrows.

The cufflinks are a cat's head, the head is made of pure gold, and the eyes are two blue diamonds, which is very valuable at first glance.

Chu Yuanxiao noticed that his woolen scarf was scratched by the cufflinks, and the filaments were entangled with the cufflinks.

The cufflinks were a little loose due to his pulling action, and the cat's head that was originally facing upwards was tilted to one side. He persisted, but he didn't dare to pull any more, and took a step towards Yan Hao.

Only one step, no closer.

Yan Hao turned his head to look at him with deep eyes.

Too close?

Chu Yuanxiao took half a step back.

Yan Hao glanced at his feet, his eyes sank, he lowered his head, took off the cat's cuff button, and quickly and meticulously cleaned up the filaments from the scarf.

Chu Yuanxiao said: "Don't bother, just tear it off."

Yan Hao ignored him, and quickly straightened the filaments wrapped around the cuff buttons, holding the cuff buttons in one hand and the scarf in the other, and raised his head.

Chu Yuanxiao secretly tugged hard, but she didn't. She looked at Yan Hao suspiciously and frowned slightly.

Yan Hao's eyes flickered, and with a little force on his wrist, he threw the scarf as if it was light, and the scarf flew towards Chu Yuanxiao, flew directly over Chu Yuanxiao's shoulder, and put it on his shoulder.

"If you scratch your scarf, I will pay for it."

Chu Yuanxiao subconsciously refused: "No need..."

Yan Hao didn't wait for his response, turned around and left.

Mr. Tian, ​​Mr. Wan, and Director Fu looked at Chu Yuanxiao sympathetically, and immediately followed Yan Hao.

Mr. Yan must be so displeased with this beauty from Chu, he doesn't even want to return the scarf when he comes closer, so he wants to throw it away, tsk tsk.

Qi Xiang didn't think much about it, he knew that Chu Yuanxiao didn't like to get too close to unfamiliar men, and as for other people's attitudes, as long as they weren't too close, they wouldn't take cold talk or even hate Chu Yuanxiao to heart.

So he only mentioned the matter of the second daughter.

"Brother Chu, don't worry, since I promised you the role of the second female lead, I will never break my promise. President Yan and Director Fu are on my side, and President Wan can't change anything."

"I won't make it difficult for you either. If Shan Shuiling can't meet the requirements of Director Fu and you, you can choose someone else."

Qi Xiang waved his hand: "If you want to choose another one, you have to choose another one. Didn't I say it before? I've given you the role of the second female lead. Shan Shuiling can't do it. You can just find another one for me. Anyway, I'll take the role of the second female lead in your hands." I don't care."

Chu Yuanxiao smiled slightly, and didn't say any more words of thanks.

Turning his head to see the fountain not far away, Chu Yuanxiao turned his footsteps: "Wait for a while, my hands are dry, and I need some water to moisten them."

Qi Xiang nodded in favor, watched him go to the fountain, stretched out the right hand that he had shaken with Mr. Wan before, took a handful of water, and then took out a handkerchief to dry the water stains on his hands carefully.

Seeing this, Qi Xiang sighed secretly, with Brother Chu's character, staying in the spotlight of the entertainment industry is really a bit of a crime.

On the second floor of the restaurant, by the floor-to-ceiling windows of a private room, Yan Hao rubbed the cufflinks of the cat's head, his eyes locked on the slender figure next to the fountain downstairs, and a fiery light gushed out from the depths of his usually cold eyes.

He didn't turn around until the figure disappeared from his eyes, and his cold eyes swept over Wan Dafa's hands.

Wan Dafa shivered for no reason, and subconsciously rubbed his hands.

It was a bit cold at night in early March.
