Xia Yizhou

The press conference ended 15 minutes after Xia Yizhou appeared on the stage. The event ended at about two o'clock in the afternoon. The rest of the time was for Bai Ze, Xia Yizhou, Kang Xin and other leading actors and Ecstasy to sign autographs. This press conference Along with the admission ticket, there is also a redesigned and printed concept poster of "Those Years". Each of the [-] fans at the scene will get a copy, and all the main creators will sign on it as a souvenir.

After a half-hour break, the signing officially began, and the team moved forward in an orderly manner. After five o'clock in the evening, everyone's posters were signed and today's press conference was successfully concluded.

After the end, Wei Jing greeted her to go to dinner together. She had already booked a seat, and everyone walked out. After exiting the staff passage, everyone saw Barnes standing outside at a glance. This picture of Barnes in the social circle in the past two days The face is not too familiar.

At around [-]:[-] this afternoon, Barnes left to attend Mance's press conference. The press conference lasted for an hour. After announcing that he was officially acting as Xia Yizhou's manager, after the press conference, Barnes left the scene under the escort of his group of bodyguards and rushed back. Xia Yizhou and his party just came out when they arrived.

A group of people stopped in their tracks, and all looked at Xia Yizhou in unison. Barnes took the initiative to walk over, glanced at everyone, and then looked at Xia Yizhou.

"Mr. Barnes, do you want to have a meal with us?" Wei Jing saw that he was too embarrassed, so he said a polite word.

She said polite words, but Barnes didn't take it as polite words, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm here to pick Jeff up for dinner after get off work, so let's go together if that's the case."

Barnes took the backpack on Xia Yizhou's shoulders and asked where he was eating, and then walked towards his car. Xia Yizhou raised his foot to follow, but Bai Ze grabbed him and said, "Take my car, I have a lot to say to you."

Xia Yizhou looked in the direction of Barnes, and sure enough, Barnes was staring at him with the door open. Although there was a smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes at all.

Sighing silently, Xia Yizhou withdrew his hand and said, "No need, he is my manager now, I'd better take his car, if you have anything to say, let's chat at the dinner table."

After speaking, he walked over, and Barnes' sharp eyes relaxed. He glanced at Bai Ze provocatively, closed the door and got into the car.

Everyone else looked at Bai Ze, because they all felt that something was wrong. Screenwriter Wei Jing and Bai Ze got in a car. After getting in the car, Bai Ze asked Wei Jing: "Sister Wei, just now Zhouer said that the person is him. What happened to your agent?"

"You don't know that Mance held a press conference just now. The man just now is called Steve Barnes. He is the largest shareholder and CEO of Mance. I heard that the background is not simple. Mance is now the owner of "" One of the investors of "Those Years" is very willing to invest money, and he can be arrogant. The economic contract of Xiaozhou's movie is signed by Mance, and Barnes is his agent, and the most ridiculous thing is, The script I wrote actually had to be sent to him for reading first, and the filming could only start if there were no problems. I don’t know how Mr. Gao agreed to such a ridiculous condition, but she had a secretive expression on her face, so I couldn’t ask any more questions. .”

"Is he now Zhou'er's manager?"

"Yes, and I will follow the group, that is, follow Xia Yizhou the whole time. I said, is there any truth in what was released earlier on the Internet? Is there really something between him and Xiaozhou? I think he is very hostile to you. Heavy, there is something weird between him and Xiaozhou."

Bai Ze gritted his back molars and frowned tightly. Wei Jing knew what he looked like, sighed, and kept silent.

After arriving at the hotel, other people came up to pull Wei Jing to ask about the situation, Wei Jing only said to tell everyone to be careful, the matter between Xia Yizhou and Barnes is not easy.

Everyone has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, so they know how to behave.

After entering the private room, everyone ordered three or four dishes, so that there would be quite a lot of people at the table. Before the dishes were served, everyone chatted and laughed casually. Barnes and Baize sat on the left and right of Xia Yizhou.

Barnes took out a sterile paper towel and wiped the bowls and chopsticks in front of Xia Yizhou carefully, while Bai Ze looked aside and asked, "Does Mr. Barnes have a cleanliness?"

"I don't have any cleanliness, but it doesn't hurt to go out to eat and clean up."

Bai Ze looked at Xia Yizhou, Xia Yizhou was playing with his phone with his head down, Bai Ze leaned over to look at it for a while, and asked, "I'm going to take a makeup photo tomorrow, I'll pick you up at your home."

"No, I'm Jeff's agent now. The company will send a special car to take him there tomorrow."

Barnes told Bai Ze before Xia Yizhou that the time-killing game on Xia Yizhou's mobile phone showed that it was dead again, and Xia Yizhou clicked to continue playing.

"When did Mr. Barnes get involved in the entertainment industry?" Bai Zepi said with a half smile.

"There's no way, who told Jeff to make this movie life and death? He likes me even if he has to bite the bullet." Barnes looked at Xia Yizhou, his eyes were so gentle that water dripped from his eyes.

"Mr. Barnes has learned Mandarin for a few years? He doesn't have an accent at all, it's pretty standard." Wei Jing interjected in a timely manner, and Bai Ze looked at Barnes with eyes that could almost eat people.

"It's not long, maybe a few months."

"Are you able to learn so well in such a short time?" Kang Xin also joined the topic.

"The main reason is that Jeff teaches well. Oh, by the way, Jeffery is his foreign name. I usually call him Jeff."

Gradually, the topic began to revolve around Barnes. Everyone was an old man in the entertainment industry. Everyone knew how to use stereotypes and where to speak. The atmosphere of the conversation at the table was very good for a while.

After destroying the last little monster, Xia Yizhou got up, and Barnes immediately turned his head and asked, "Where are you going?" He put his hand on the armrest of the chair and pushed down as if he wanted to stand up.

After Barnes asked, he knew that he had crossed the line again, and his performance must have made Xia Yizhou feel that he was being watched by him all the time. He was secretly annoyed, and carefully observed Xia Yizhou's expression.

Xia Yizhou frowned as expected, and said coldly, "Washroom, do you want to come together?"

Barnes loosened his hand holding the chair, shook his head and gave Xia Yizhou a smile, Xia Yizhou walked out with a cold face, but instead of going to the bathroom, he went to the open-air balcony and stood there in the wind.

After Xia Yizhou left for a while, Bai Ze also went out with excuses, Barnes didn't stop him, so what if you go, Xia Yizhou must be his own in the end.

After Bai Ze asked the waiter, he found Xia Yizhou on the balcony. Xia Yizhou was leaning on the balcony railing and lowered his head. Bai Ze went over and said, "Why did you come here to blow air?"

When Xia Yizhou turned his head, Bai Ze had already walked up to him, took off his coat and put it on Xia Yizhou's body, saying, "Wear it better, don't catch cold."

Xia Yizhou gathered the clothes on his body and said, "I'm actually not cold at all, but thanks anyway."

After standing with Xia Yizhou for a while, Bai Ze finally couldn't help asking: "Did Barnes force you to do this when you signed the film economic contract of "Those Years" to Mance?"

"No, this is a bet between us, and I just lost the bet."

"Is he going to follow the whole movie?"

"Correct."

"It's your bet too?"

"Correct."

Xia Yizhou answered neatly, but Bai Ze felt that there was a fire in his heart and there was no way to release it. Barnes's hands were too long. For an established entertainment company like Mance, he would buy it if he said it was acquired, and he would buy it if he wanted to intervene in their movies. Joining their movie, he had worked so hard in the entertainment industry for so many years to achieve such an achievement, but in front of Barnes, it was so insignificant.

Xia Yizhou turned his head and walked over, Bai Ze frowned, with a sad face, so he asked: "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly have a bitter face?"

"I just suddenly felt how small I was and couldn't protect you."

Xia Yizhou straightened up while supporting the armrest, and said, "You don't need to worry about these things, in fact, these things have nothing to do with you."

"How could it be okay? Isn't your business my business?"

Xia Yizhou stared at the lights in the distance for a while, then made up his mind and said: "Bai Ze, go and like someone else."

Bai Ze's heart seemed to have suddenly fallen into an ice cellar, the cold was so unsuspecting.

"I've thought a lot these days, and it's impossible for me and you."

"Why is it impossible? Why is it impossible?"

Xia Yizhou took off the clothes on his body and carried them on his arms, and said, "Do you think there is still a possibility for us? Do you think what happened in the past seven years is really as simple as what I said?"

"Of course I know it's not simple, how could it be simple? If you have any concerns, tell us, maybe we can find a solution?"

People who have been living in the sun and never really experienced what despair is has no way to understand you now.

This sentence popped into Xia Yizhou's mind, he didn't want to explain, he didn't want to argue, he thought he could go back to the past, but in fact everything changed from the day he left.

Xia Yizhou sometimes wondered what he and Bai Ze would be like now if the incident was exposed at that time. He might lose his acting career, but he might not be a soldier, so he would never meet Bane Si, maybe I can still hold hands with you as Bai Zezhen said in that line, and stay together until the end of life.

Passed the clothes over, but Bai Ze didn't pick them up, Xia Yizhou could only put them on the armrest and said, "Don't be naive, just leave it like this, don't waste time on me."

Turning his head, Barnes stood not far away and looked at them. He didn't know how long he stood there. He leaned on the pillar and looked at this side leisurely. When Xia Yizhou turned his head to look over, he stood up straight The body walked over here.

"Finished talking?" Barnes said to Xia Yizhou with a smile without looking at Bai Ze.

"How did you come?"

"Oh, the dishes are all served. If you don't come back, everyone, I will volunteer to come to you first. Let's go, there is a table full of dishes. If you are not hungry, I am hungry!" Barnes turned sideways body.

Xia Yizhou walked forward, Barnes looked back at Bai Ze, said with a sneer, "Does Mr. Bai still want to blow the cold wind here?" After he finished speaking, he left without paying attention to Bai Ze.

Bai Ze gritted his teeth, picked up his clothes and followed.

On the opposite building, a foreign man in his 30s put away his high-powered binoculars and left with a backpack.
