The room was silent again for several seconds.

Since he is an actor, it's not that everyone has seen the world, but he has never seen Xia Xi like this. He looks more elegant and polite than anyone else, but he looks high and high from head to toe, which can make people feel obvious cloud mud They looked at them as if they were looking at something inferior, and even didn't bother to argue with them, and went directly to the chief director.

Lu Kai can be regarded as a famous director, but Xia Xi's one sentence is life and death. More importantly, these words are not arrogant nonsense, and that kind of lofty attitude is not something that ordinary people can pretend, but is real in life. In the bones.

Ji Song, who came back to his senses, immediately dialed Director Lu's phone number according to his words. Others tried to call the assistant director or his assistant, and some tried to leave boldly. Most of them didn't dare to move anymore. Just try to minimize your presence as much as possible.

With the humanoid weapon Duan Junxiang standing there, naturally no one could successfully walk away. Instead, those who were frightened could not stand still, and just a bloodthirsty look like a beast almost made them pee their pants.At this moment when Duan Junxiang was 'scary', Ji Song's call was connected, and he put down the receiver not long after, and said to Xia Xi stutteringly: "Lu, director Lu said he will come soon. "

After hearing this, Xia Xi's expression was still very flat, and there was no sign of happiness or anger. There was no change from before. He only raised his hand and looked at his watch, then leaned on the back of the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

Duan Junxiang stood at the right back of the sofa and looked at Xia Xi silently. His drooping eyelashes concealed the concentration and depth in his eyes, and because of the position where he stood, most of his body was buried in the shadows, and he looked motionless like a A loyal dog that guards its master.

Others in the room did not dare to stare at Xia Xi like Duan Junxiang, let alone be as comfortable and indifferent as Xia Xi.Time passed quickly in the panic of everyone, until Lu Kai, who was also in panic, appeared.

Director is an industry that needs to be well-rounded. Lu Kai is not afraid of offending people, but he is afraid of offending those who cannot afford to offend.What's more, this movie was originally filmed by Hongye. To put it bluntly, he was just a hired director, and Xia Xi was the real boss.

Lu Kai had met Xia Xi before, but he didn't speak to Xia Xi. Liu Qixing was the one who met him throughout the whole process. He only saw Liu Qixing stop to discuss with Xia Xi in a low voice when talking about some key points.Liu Qixing is already considered a shrewd character, but when he talks to Xia Xi, he will unconsciously use flattery, so it is clear at a glance who is in charge and who is second.

So when he opened the door and saw Xia Xi, Lu Kai couldn't help showing a nervous expression, and then he walked towards Xia Xi.The assistant director and producer also arrived one after another, right behind Lu Kai.

At the same time, Jian Bai, who had just finished eating, happened to come out of his dressing room with Xiao Hu, and frowned slightly when he saw Lu Kai and the others rushing into the dressing room at the other end of the corridor from a distance.

Xiao Hu is the assistant that Liu Qixing transferred to Jian Bai from Hongye Film and Television. Compared with other actors who are always shouting and hugging, Jian Bai who only has one assistant by his side is indeed a bit shabby.The circle of filming is different from other circles. It has always been not short of money, background, and not afraid of trouble. Everyone has a background to some extent, and no one is convinced.Besides, Jian Bai's surname is Jian and not Xia, and he has never mentioned the Xia family's name, yet he has become the male lead of such a large high-cost and high-produced drama, and it is difficult for people not to exclude him.

"They can't be discussing the revised script, right?" Xiao Hu, who had been completely deceived by Jian Bai's disguised image of 'kindness and deceitfulness', felt sorry for Jian Bai, and immediately said, "Let's go, Ah Bai." , let's go and listen."

Lu Kai's footsteps were not light, but he didn't see Xia Xi open his eyes until he walked up to Xia Xi. His heart became more and more uncertain, so he could only forcefully smile and say, "Boss Xia, why are you here? Don't tell me before you come, so I can arrange someone to pick you up..."

After hearing the word Xia, everyone realized who Xia Xi was after all.The name of the richest man Xia's family is naturally known to everyone, but unfortunately most of them have only heard of it but never seen it.This is how things are in the world, some things are placed too high, but people will ignore their existence, feel that they are far away from themselves, and will not appear by their side, even if they see them with their own eyes, they will not believe it.

Only then did Xia Xi raise his eyelids and look at him, "If I don't come, won't I have to wait until the filming is over and not know that Director Lu changed the male lead behind my back?"

When Jian Bai walked to the door lightly, what he heard was Xia Xi's words.

"That's not the case," Lu Kai hurriedly explained seriously, "The male lead hasn't changed, it's just that the screenwriter has a new inspiration, which adds some conflict and suspense to the script, and the second male lead has a little more role to play. But setting up the plot in this way will It's more attractive, and Jian Bai is a newcomer after all, although his acting skills are good, it's still a bit flimsy to take the lead alone, Li Beiqing has a certain reputation, and the combination of the two will definitely make the movie more popular..."

What Lu Kai said is the truth. Whether it is the director or the investors behind the scenes, the most important thing is whether the movie can be a hit. "Boss Xia, what do you think?"

Xia Xi tapped the armrest with his knuckles, not only did not eat this set, but also showed a sarcastic smile, and asked, "What do you think?"

Lu Kai became even more nervous because of this smile, and he didn't dare to follow Xia Xi's words. Hearing Xia Xi continue: "You have already made up your mind and yet you come to ask me what I think--is Director Lu taking me for granted? Playing fools?"

The last sentence was very heavy, and the momentum was also released. Lu Kai's heart thumped, and he almost sank to the bottom.He was still taking chances, thinking that the revision of the script was for the prospects and interests of the entire movie. Even if the boss of Hongye found out, he would make concessions because of interests, not to mention that many scenes were filmed while filming. Changed to achieve the best results, but I didn't expect Xia Xi to attach so much importance to Jian Bai, and he didn't play cards according to common sense at all.

Little did he know that what Xia Xi valued was not Jian Bai, but Jian Bai's loyalty.The system's notification sound indicated that Jian Bai had come to the door at this moment, "Ding——, the loyalty value of target B Jian Bai has increased by 3 points, and the total loyalty value is 29."

Lu Kai could only bite the bullet and explain again: "You really misunderstood, I originally wanted to discuss with you or Boss Liu, but considering that the overall context has not changed, and you are busy, I am afraid to disturb you... "

"Oh? Are you blaming me?"

Lu Kai suddenly felt more and more wrong, and even Jian Bai, who was eavesdropping outside the door, couldn't help feeling sympathetic to him—there was another person who was helpless against Xia Xi's moody logic and poisonous tongue, He definitely understands Lu Kai's mood at the moment better than anyone else.

Lu Kai is also a wise man who knows the current affairs. Since he couldn't figure out Xia Xi's temper, he simply admitted his mistake: "I didn't handle this matter well. If Boss Xia thinks it's inappropriate, I'll ask the scriptwriter to change the script immediately." Change it back, and I hope you will forgive us this time, don't care about it."

This is very well said, normal people will come down the steps, but Xia Xi is the one in a thousand who insists on jumping down after you have paved the steps, "But I care very much."

The assistant director next to him was about to kneel when he heard it,——then what are you going to do, my lord!

Just after complaining, Xia Xi glanced over, as if he had been seen through, he hurriedly lowered his head, not even daring to complain silently.In fact, Xia Xi looked around at everyone in the room. They were obviously sitting, but they gave everyone the illusion of looking down, and finally turned back to Lu Kai, "Although there were many director candidates at the beginning, but the director of this film The whole play was given to Director Lu because I believed in Director Lu's ability, but I was very disappointed with Director Lu's casting level. You must know that an actor is not only good-looking, but also needs the most basic moral qualities. In the room, these actors are satirizing and insulting others behind their backs——Does Director Lu think such people can make good movies?"

The implication of these words is already obvious, Lu Kai nodded, "I understand, we will definitely give you an explanation."

"It's not me who was ridiculed and insulted, so why should you explain to me?"

In this short period of time, Lu Kai had already been blocked by Xia Xi many times, but he got used to it after being blocked too much, and immediately changed his words: "It is to give Jian Bai an explanation."

"Ding——, target B Jian Bai's loyal dog value increased by 8 points, and the total loyal dog value is 37."

"Well," Xia Xi was roughly satisfied, stood up and said to Lu Kai in an unprecedentedly gentle tone: "Whether this movie can be successfully filmed in the future will depend on Director Lu's hard work and hard work. If there are any financial problems, Just mention it to Qixing."

He obviously knew the essence of slapping a sweet date, so Lu Kai couldn't say anything other than nodding and saying thank you and walking slowly.Because what he said is not whether the film can be finished well, but whether you, the director, can finish the filming of the trick.It is not without precedent for other crews to change directors. Anyway, I am not short of funds and directors.

Mr. Xia didn't leave immediately, but watched another night show before leaving with Jian Bai, and then he was sullen all the way back.

So Jian Bai took the initiative to smile at him and asked, "Xiaoxi, why did you come here suddenly today..."

The moment he opened his mouth, he was cut off, and Xia Xi asked coldly, "Why didn't you tell me about the crew?"

"I don't want to cause you trouble, and it's not a big deal. I'm very satisfied to be able to participate..."

Normal people would buy this understanding and considerate image, but unexpectedly Mr. Xia's face became even colder, "It's not a big deal? I paid for the funds and equipment, and whoever I let be the protagonist gets to be the protagonist. The script was changed by someone, and the roles Someone robbed me, but you didn’t tell me——are you out of your mind, or do you want to unite with those outsiders to ignore me?”

Obviously being scolded, Jian Bai's heart is sweetened by the word "outsider". She also feels that she is really cheap, and she can feel warm when she is scolded.Then he shook his head and waved his hands and said, "No, I just thought that I am a newcomer, it doesn't matter if I am wronged, if it affects you or the Xia family's reputation, then..."

"Do you think backing down is to protect the reputation of the Xia family?" Xia Xi squinted over with beautiful and proud eyes, "Since you have entered the Xia family's door, you are a member of my Xia family——when did the Xia family come? It's someone else's turn to tell me what to do? Wouldn't it be more embarrassing for you to let others bully you?"

"Xiaoxi, I know I was wrong," Jian Bai felt his whole heart was filled with indescribable warmth, "Next time, I will tell you as soon as possible, okay?"

"Ding——, target B Jian Bai's loyal dog value increased by 5 points, and the total loyal dog value is 42."

"Ding——, the favorability of target B Jian Bai increases by 3 points, and the total favorability is 83."

"Yeah." Probably seeing that he had a good attitude in admitting his mistakes, Mr. Xia finally calmed down a little, and gave him a compliment for the first time, "Your acting is not bad, and Lu Kai also praised you for joining the play."

What Xia Xi was talking about was of course the night scene that was filmed just now. The content was that the hero was walking alone on the road after quarreling with his father.He stopped and sat on the side of the road, suddenly remembered the details of getting along with the heroine, and belatedly understood his feelings for her.

The inner drama is more of a test of acting skills, but Jian Bai's acting is very vivid, and the camera has a good sense, so he can be called a natural actor.

"Entering the drama?" Jian Bai looked at Xia Xi, but would never tell the other party that what he thought of at that moment was not the plot, but Xia Xi, and only said in a low voice: "I have already entered the drama."

He no longer wants to tell whether the other party is sincere or not, even if it's just a scene, he is willing to join in, thoroughly.

In a blink of an eye, it was ten o'clock in the evening.

After returning to the bedroom, Xia Xi smelled a distinct smell of cigarettes after opening the door, and then saw Jiang Zhanwei standing in front of the window holding a cigarette.

The Marshal's usually neat military uniform shirt is a little wrinkled, and the three-buttoned skirt is also a little crooked. His deep eyes look at the bustling night outside the glass, with an indescribable sense of dejection.I don't know how long I've been smoking, but even though the windows are wide open, the smell of smoke is still so strong that I can't blow it away.

The first thing Xia Xi did was to go forward and pinch Jiang Zhanwei's cigarette. Jiang Zhanwei, who was thinking about something, didn't notice that Xia Xi had come back. He turned his head and looked over with innocent and confused eyes, which made Xia Xi Xi Xi couldn't get angry for a while.The hand was held tightly by Jiang Zhanwei in the next second. Although the man's brain did not react, this movement seemed to be born instinctively.

Seeing his appearance, Xia Xi felt indescribably pitiful, so he didn't care about the fact that he climbed over the wall without permission, and didn't withdraw his hand, just asked: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Zhanwei pursed his lips and said nothing, Xia Xi couldn't help but asked again: "When did you come? How many cigarettes did you smoke?"

Xia Xi knew that Jiang Zhanwei's addiction to cigarettes could be big or small, it all depended on his level of annoyance, and he also knew that Jiang Zhanwei was a boring gourd, if he didn't ask, he could hold back no matter how big it was.However, the other party still did not speak, making Xia Xi frown slightly, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Zhanwei finally spoke out, his voice was so hoarse, it must have been damaged by the smoke, "...I'm sick."

"Ah?" Xia Xi hastily raised his left hand, which was not held by him, to touch his forehead, "What's wrong?"

Lifted halfway but was held like his right hand, Jiang Zhanwei looked straight at Xia Xi and replied: "It's lovesickness."

Xia Xi was a little speechless, "Didn't we just meet yesterday?"

Jiang Zhanwei pursed his lips again and stopped talking, with a bit of grievance on the corners of his lips, he looked at Xia Xi for a long time with a paralyzed face, and then said: "But I haven't found you all day today."

Xia Xi was speechless again, but his heart moved slightly, and then he said half-jokingly: "Because of this, you made it look like a war or the sky is falling, you came to my place in the middle of the night in a daze, and you smoked so much? "

I saw the Marshal nodded seriously, and added: "Even if there is a war, it doesn't matter, I can always protect you well."

"Ding——, the loyalty value of target A Jiang Zhanwei is increased by 1, and the total loyalty value is 81."

Jiang Zhanwei seems to have learned to restrain his temper to be gentle and loving, just like a warlike lion, carefully put away its fangs and claws, and use the softest fur to care for the most important baby.In the end, the lion hugged his little hedgehog and fell asleep on the bed like a big cat protecting a kitten. In the dark, Xia Xi could feel the other's hand caressing his cheek and the kiss on the corner of his lips.

So he turned his head and gave Jiang Zhanwei a kiss back.The closed eyes formed extremely beautiful eyeliner, and the trembling eyelashes fluttered like a butterfly about to fly.

The feeling of being able to fly is not very good for Xia Xi, because he is a little airsick.Next to the student, there was Angus, who liked to talk about Rory, and he kept babbling and urging him to eat something.

It is said that changes are worse than plans, and Xia Xi, who was going to H City with Jiang Zhanwei to attend the wedding banquet, went there with Angus first.His secret energy mining with the help of the Chengbei Machinery Factory has achieved initial success, and finding a buyer has become the first thing to do now, and the meeting place agreed by the industrial tycoon of the Grand Empire contacted by Angus It was City H.

No one forced Xia Xi, even if it was in the name of being good for him, Angus's persuasion was of course ineffective, so he wisely changed another battle plan, that is, the method of seduction, and opened his mouth to drink a mouthful of chicken soup And drank without image, chattering.

Xia Xi couldn't bear it anymore and threw all the food in front of Angus into the trash bag, "I've decided to prohibit you from eating anything until you hit the ground."

Angus immediately pouted in protest, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with such a motherly action for a big man, so Xia Xi didn't soften his heart, and directly covered the blanket with closed eyes and rested.

It was not until after landing that Xia Xi felt a little more comfortable, and then went to the Sixth Congress Hall with Angus.He always pays attention to efficiency when he is not working, and he will not waste a minute or a second when he is working.

Angus didn't contact the industrial tycoon directly, there was an introducer named Dean in the middle, and the relationship between Dean and Angus was a bit like that of Xia Xi and Liu Qixing. We have known each other since we were in the Grand Empire, and we have been friends since we were young.Although Dean himself is mediocre, his family is very powerful, and recently he is also looking for business opportunities in the Chenguang Empire.

Because Angus had heard Xia Xi's name many times, Dean still had some expectations for Xia Xi in his heart. He ordered dinner early and waited, and then he was dumbfounded the first time he saw Xia Xi. In place.

Dean claims to be well-informed, but he has never seen such a beautiful woman with both appearance and temperament. Men are carnivores, even if he doesn't like the same sex, he is stunned by accident.What's worse is that Angus not only didn't help him to introduce, but just started to eat first, and he devoured the food so much that people couldn't bear to look directly at it.

Fortunately, Xia Xi took the initiative to introduce himself to Dean in standard Gran, and extended his hand.Looking at the slender and perfect hand, Dean hurriedly shook it back slightly cautiously, and even felt a little trepidation inexplicably.

"Finally alive again!!"

Angus sighed after eating a piece of fish roll and toast respectively, and tried his best to look at Xia Xi with eyes like a resentful woman.It's a pity that Xia Xi had already chatted seriously with Dean in a blink of an eye, and didn't even raise his eyes back.

Angus, who was ignored, was depressed for a long time, and turned to call Liu Qixing to complain, "...do you know that I was abused by Xiaoxi. He not only refused my breakfast, but also didn't allow me to eat. Hungry enough to bite the blanket on the aircraft!"

Liu Qixing didn't help his relatives, and said immediately: "If it was Xiaoxi who threw it away, then of course he has his reasons. What's more, if you still throw it away, won't you ask the flight attendant again?"

"Since Xiaoxi said that I was not allowed to eat, what's the use of the flight attendant giving it to me?" Angus retorted bluntly: "Think about it yourself, if Xiaoxi said that you are not allowed to eat, you Dare to eat it?"

Liu Qixing was silent for a moment, - he didn't seem to dare to do anything.

Dean, who was listening, naturally didn't expect that Xia Meiren would have such a heavy "power", and only thought that Angus was too stupid.Xia Xi had already finished her dinner gracefully, and got the information she wanted from Dean, so she went upstairs without wasting time, causing Angus to leave the cake that he only gnawed in a hurry and follow.

The first and second floors of the Wuhui House are restaurants, and the third floor and above are various forms of casinos. The industrial tycoon Abel Brown played a poker game on the top floor today.Those who can come and go here are either rich or expensive, and the network of relationships is more intricate, and since it is called the Sixth Congress Hall, there are people from any country, or the entire H City is a magical place, and the concessions of various countries are as sticky as dog skin plaster There is one piece on the left and one piece on the right, which cannot be torn off.

It happened to be Abel's turn to play a game of cards, and the two people from the left and the first from the right lost so much that they got up and stopped playing, which made him a little unhappy.Dean took the opportunity to bring Xia Xi and Angus forward, and introduced them respectively.

From the appearance alone, Abel does not look like a person in his 40s, but slightly younger than his actual age.With a hooked nose and a pair of sharp green eyes, when he saw Xia Xi, he showed the same astonishment as Dean, but it was fleeting.His addiction to poker hadn't gone away, so he invited Xia Xi to play two games, obviously he didn't want to talk about business matters tonight.

Xia Xi immediately nodded in response, and not long after she sat down, she heard another voice, "...Mr. Brown, long time no see."

An indescribable sense of familiarity surged into Xia Xi's brain, which made him feel inexplicably tense.Then he turned his head and saw Sato Takakawa's face coming into his sight from far to near.
