Zhou Langye didn't know that Bai Hui, who had always been emotionally stable, cried all the way in the taxi.

He said to the driver, after you spend all the [-] yuan, send me back to the community, and I will make up for the missing travel expenses.

The driver was a very honest northerner, and without asking any further questions, he drove on the street late at night without hindrance.Bai Hui sat in the back row, tears streaming down his face.

He clenched his hands into fists and pinched them on his legs, suppressing himself not to make a sound.

In his tearful eyes, he thought of the way Zhou Langye knelt down slowly, he thought of him bowing his head and kissing his ring finger, and felt that he would never forget this kneeling in his life.

For many months thereafter, Bai Hui would often have the same dream.I dreamed that the taxi took him away, dreamed that the two figures were drifting away, and both Bai Hui and Zhou Langye in the dream began to be displaced.

Summer is still going on, and it's been a long summer in the capital this year.Sweltering heat, humidity, or continuous days of rain or continuous high temperature, in short, compared with previous years, it is more painful.

In the first week of September, the Municipal Meteorological Bureau was still issuing an orange warning for high temperature. Bai Hui completed his 50th performance this weekend, which meant that his contract with the theater also expired.

It is not an exaggeration to describe his last performance as unprecedented. The 385-seat theater even sold unsuitable standing tickets, and even the aisles were full of people.As a stage play with a small audience, it is rare for such a hard-to-find scene to appear, which caused the theater party to lament repeatedly in the background. The failure to renew the contract with Bai Hui was their biggest loss.

At the curtain call, Bai Hui wore a sweaty costume, bowed twice to the protracted applause from the audience, got up and nodded with clasped hands, saying thank you with a sincere expression.

In the past, he didn't take movie fans very seriously. Although he never underestimated those pursuits, he never really took them to heart.After all, success comes too easily to him. He has both amazing skin, talent, and inexhaustible resources, including Zhou Langye who spends money like dirt on him.In short, even if Bai Hui leaves the entertainment circle, there will always be his legend in the entertainment industry.

Bai Hui also calmed down after experiencing climbing and falling, becoming nothing, and walking alone in the long night of silence.He understands that behind every theater ticket and every banner, there are others who cherish and yearn for him.

Bai Hui hopes that his efforts are worthy of these cherished and longing.

He wanted to break out of his comfort zone, and began to try again in various crews.Entering the arena under the surprised eyes of many people, and then completing a performance in front of the camera, when leaving, I was always asked to reconfirm the contact number without exception.

Bai Hui's aura of acting can silence all those who doubt him.Even though he was wearing the most common white shirt, plain makeup, and didn't even bring an assistant, when he said "ready", raised his hand and took off his baseball cap and stood up, the way he looked at people suddenly became unusual.

He kept a low profile a lot, not like a 23-year-old boy at all.If you look at him up close, you will find the scars on his cheeks and neck, which will inevitably lead to various speculations about what happened to him for more than a year without news.

And he didn't have any unnecessary explanations, he was very clear about his own position, as long as there was a play and the role attracted him, he was willing to try it.The current film production has a default money-making model. It often finds a few top-notch heroes and heroines to guarantee the box office, and then finds some powerful actors to support the play, so as to stabilize the confidence of ordinary audiences in the plot and quality. Make up for the lack of acting skills of the protagonist.

These supporting roles often have a lot of dramatic tension, either villainous villains, or characters with complicated inner dramas, all in line with Bai Hui's wishes.He doesn't care which male role he is auditioning for, he is someone who has seen the peak scenery, and has squandered his fanatical fame and wealth, but he has the calm confidence to face everything.

He will choose a team of big productions to prevent some dirty things from happening.Some auditions are more serious, they just shoot a piece of video material and show it to the director for screening; others are more casual, they sit down with the director and the producer coordinating the actors to discuss the understanding of the roles, but Bai Hui also handles them one by one. up.

At first he thought pessimistically, thinking that if he could get one or two chances in the ten groups of auditions, it would be considered good.In the end, he found that there were fewer actors in this circle who could replace Bai Hui than he had expected.

Although the halo of that genius boy fell for a while, even if Bai Hui carried black material, without the gold master, and walked around with bare hands, the brilliance all over his body still could not be blocked.

The first group he interviewed, confirmed with him the time of the audition with makeup on the next day, and soon received two replies from the two groups, both of which invited him to join the group, which was far older than him. The staff politely called him "Teacher Bai".

The circle is so big, and Bai Hui's low-key return is not really as low-key as he expected.

He didn't know how much market impact he would have on other actors of the same type once he really became popular, and he didn't know that he would soon be targeted by people with ulterior motives.

But before that, he received a call from Qiao Zhen.

Because it was a new number, Bai Hui didn't save Qiao Zhen's cell phone number. After he connected, he politely said, "Hi, hello."——Thought it was a staff member of a certain crew.

"Xiaobai, I'm Miss Qiao." Qiao Zhen's voice came unexpectedly, and Bai Hui was taken aback.

"My studio withdrew from Huaxun Films and went it alone. I heard that you are auditioning recently? How about it, consider signing back to me?"

Bai Hui has always admired Qiao Zhen's character.No matter what worldly wisdom, talk about things straight to the point.

But once Bai Hui was bitten, he didn't dare to take it lightly.Holding the mobile phone, he thought about it and said, "Sister Qiao, you don't lack newcomers, so I'll let it go."

Qiao Zhen laughed, "What are you worried about? I have nothing to do with Zhou Langye."

Bai Hui also smiled, and didn't rush to deny it, "If it's okay, then it's not just me."

Qiao Zhen was serious about signing him, and it had nothing to do with Zhou Langye, so she persuaded him with emotion and reason.For example, it's too shabby for Bai Hui to work solo, and he can't always negotiate the salary and treatment by himself; for example, Qiao Zhen's studio also signed several experienced old actors, one of whom Bai Hui has always wanted The seniors who worked together, because of Zhou Langye's reasons, they missed a play.

Finally, Bai Hui said, "Then let me think about it, Miss Qiao."

Qiao Zhen didn't force him, "Call me back when you've made up your mind."

Bai Hui hung up the phone and sat in the small apartment for a while, his first reaction was that he didn't have enough courage to face those people from the past, they would easily remind him of Zhou Langye.

But after about an hour, he called Qiao Zhen back.Qiao Zhen answered quickly, and Bai Hui said to her, "Sister Qiao, if you sign me, how long will it take at the shortest?"

Qiao Zhen was very sincere, and gave an agent in the circle the shortest time to make an appointment, "Five years, I won't force you to take the role."

Bai Hui on the other end of the phone was silent, and then said, "I tend to accept it, but I have to look at the details again for the specific content."

Qiao Zhen said "OK" in a little surprise, and made an appointment to have an interview with Bai Hui. Before hanging up the phone, she couldn't help asking Bai Hui, "Why did you figure it out so quickly?"

Bai Hui answered very smoothly this time, as if he had already had an answer beforehand, "You have to face it."

He said so with a calm tone.

Before ending the call, Qiao Zhen sighed to Bai Hui, "There are very few entertainers as powerful as you who are not a monster. Sister Qiao will treat you well after you come back."—as if Bai Hui had been wronged in the past.

Bai Hui didn't bother to delve into the meaning of her words, and said lightly, "Thank you, sister Qiao." He heard Qiao Zhen say a few more words, and then hung up the phone.

One evening a few days later, Bai Hui signed himself to the independent Qiao Zhen Film and Television Studio, and his acting career slowly returned to the right track.Qiao Zhen arranged for the teacher to accompany him to choose a suitable book, and after half a month, he brought an assistant into the group to provide supporting roles for some popular actors who have been in the limelight recently.

Many people thought that he should feel embarrassed. After all, with such a change of identity, it was inevitable that anyone would have a psychological gap, but Bai Hui did not.He interacts normally with other actors, accepts interviews, cooperates with business, and does not fight or grab.He is the actor with the least NG in the whole group, and the director feels at ease when he shoots his clips.

What really embarrassed Bai Hui was that he began to receive hints of ill intentions from time to time.

This circle is like this, there is a set of tacit rules of the game.Many people in the circle know that Bai Hui was taken care of. No matter what Bai Hui thinks about that period of time, in the eyes of others, this means that Bai Hui can be a person with a very low bottom line.Moreover, he is still young, and it is entirely possible for him to be seen by others.

Bai Hui had done some psychological training for himself, and once thought that as long as he had a firm attitude, he would eventually pass it.But he didn't expect that he was so favored by the powerful and the elders, which made him hard to guard against.

Some hints are more subtle, and they can be stopped after Bai Hui expresses his refusal.Some of them were obviously insulting, probably thinking that an actor like Bai Hui could spread his legs for anyone, and the reason for refusing was just to sell more.

Even if she was as strong as Bai Hui, she still couldn't completely get rid of the shadow of humiliation after what happened to Zhou Weichen.Once, after the wrap-up banquet, he was blocked by a well-established producer in the corner of the hotel trying to do something wrong. Fortunately, someone passed by suddenly and was able to escape.At that moment, Bai Hui really had the idea of ​​retiring from the circle.

He felt that the label on his body could not be washed away. No matter how hard he tried or how low-key he acted, the things Zhou Langye had done to him in public would forever nail him to the pillar of shame.

That night he had a nightmare all night, and when he woke up in the morning, he covered his head with the quilt, trying to seek a little shelter that didn't exist, and hid like a little beast to lick those old wounds on his body.

At five o'clock in the morning, Bai Hui called his sister.

Bai Ling set his number as a special reminder, and answered it after a few rings, probably because he didn't expect Bai Hui to contact him at this time, so he asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

It was only after hearing Bai Ling's voice that Bai Hui calmed down a little. He said to Bai Ling as calmly as possible, "It's okay, sister, the production team starts early today. I miss you a little, so I'll give you a call."

Bai Ling knew that Bai Hui was not a character who would say that he misses for no reason, so he patiently chatted with him for half an hour, until he heard Bai Hui laugh a little cheerfully, and promised to return to Pingzhou during the Chinese New Year.Only then did Bai Ling hang up the phone with some relief.

The reassurance from his relatives was only short-lived, Bai Hui knew that he had to rely on himself in everything, and he even thought about some ways that he would not hesitate to destroy his future if he was entangled again next time.

But it was amazing, since that day, those hints of malicious intentions suddenly disappeared from him.

He no longer receives strange calls and text messages, and he can go out to have dinner with crew colleagues with peace of mind.It seemed that there was a pair of hands protecting him in the dark, which relieved him of walking on thin ice and fear, allowing him to integrate into a normal social state, and he could sleep peacefully after work every night.

Bai Hui didn't want to think about it.His work schedule is very full, and being able to focus on filming is what he wants most in life right now.

However, just like Qiao Zhen, who has seen countless people, she believed that when she saw Bai Hui for the first time many years ago, Bai Hui had a face that was born to blush.

It has only been three or four months since the re-opened Baihui studio reposted the movie trailer with the text "Baibai is going to challenge the white-cut black psychological expert this time", and the Reuters photos of Baihui's filming have risen to the price of major scalpers At the top of the table, as long as there is an airport where he appeared in the near future, the last hot search will be available.

On the day of Bai Hui's 24th birthday, he was invited to sweep the building of a well-known video website, and who knows who was behind the scenes went so far as to buy the entire LED screen of another high-rise building across the river from the video company. Played "Hui, happy birthday" for a whole night.Afterwards, no website or fan club came forward to claim the birthday blessing.

It's just that many sharp-eyed fans discovered that during the live broadcast that day, Bai Hui was surrounded by cheering crowds and led to the terrace, and turned his head to look at the giant birthday celebration screen for a while in astonishment.Bai Hui, who came into the mirror again, seemed to have a little red eyelids, and his lips were slightly pursed. His usual indifferent face had disappeared recently, replaced by a gentle and charming expression that he did not know who was showing off.
