Determined to bend the "school grass"

The filming of "The Empress" will take some time, and Xia Chuqing's role is in the middle and later, so apart from the variety show in hand, there is no other work, and the rest of the time is spent learning other artists in the company to deal with the media And how to do business, etc., or learn from the teacher, and occasionally be taken to some programs by the company's seniors to get acquainted.

While chatting with the teacher in the training room, Luo Nansheng opened the door and walked in: "I have a script for you to read."

Xia Chuqing jumped off the chair and took the script: "Isn't the Empress finished filming yet?"

"Then you plan to be idle for a while?"

The teacher left with a wink, Xia Chuqing smiled and said, "They seem to be afraid of you?"

Luo Nansheng hummed, and then went back to the script: "This is an idol drama. The heroine suddenly broke the contract a few days ago. I won it for you. She will join the group in a few days, which can just fill in the gap during this time. You see, if there is no problem, I will reply there."

Xia Chuqing put away the script: "I'll finish it tonight, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning."

The script Luo Nansheng brought over was a funny idol drama, which was adapted from an online novel called "True and False Girls". The heroine Xi Yuan and her twin sister Lan Yue both died of their parents when they were young. Adopted by a family, because of the influence of the adoptive family's environment, Xiyuan has a carefree personality, like a boy; Lanyue loves beauty and loves, and treats herself like a little princess all day long.Because of an accident, the identities of Xiyuan and Lanyue, who grew up, were exchanged. In order not to let others see their flaws, the two had to dutifully play each other, made a lot of ridiculous jokes, and gradually walked into each other In the end, the sisters finally recognized each other, and each reaped happiness.This script doesn't have a bloody love triangle, nor does it have a Mary Sue, it's just funny and tender.

Xia Chuqing angrily threw the script on the bed, poked at the script and muttered softly, "I think you did it on purpose, knowing that I just finished recording a scary variety show of twin sisters, and you actually gave me such a script... "

Xia's mother opened the door and came in: "What are you muttering about?"

Xia Chuqing quickly put away the script: "It's nothing, just practice acting."

Xia's mother put the fruit plate on the bedside, then sat on the bed and asked with a smile: "Little sister, how are you and Mingqi doing?"

Xia Chuqing curled her lips: "That's it."

Xia's mother was a little worried: "You are already engaged, but you can't be like before. You said that since you signed an entertainment company, you have been running to the company all day long. You don't even have a vacation, and you don't like Ming Qi at all. Heart, this is not going to work..."

"Oh, mom, stop nagging, I know what I know." Xia Chuqing interrupted impatiently: "I just entered the entertainment industry and haven't started my career yet, can you stop holding me back?"

Mama Xia sighed, "But love and career are equally important."

Xia Chuqing didn't care at all: "Career can't be restarted, relationship can be found again, I'm only 24, what are you worried about?"

Seeing that Mama Xia wanted to say more, Xia Chuqing covered her ears: "I'm going to read the script, good night, bye, Mom~~"

Mother Xia nodded her head helplessly, got up and went out.

Only then did Xia Chuqing put down her hands and sighed, lying on the bed in a daze: If I had been more careful that night six years ago, would I have noticed that she was saying goodbye?Is it possible to keep her?

The next day I deliberately got up early in the morning, warmed up a cup of milk, made two sandwiches, and took them to the company. I went straight to Luo Nansheng's office, and was about to open the door when I heard a somewhat aggrieved voice coming from inside. Female voice: "Mr. Luo, I have really prepared for this play for a long time. If it was a senior senior, I would have nothing to say, but this is obviously unfair. Just because I didn't want to agree to the investor's invitation, he replaced me." .”

Luo Nansheng's cold voice sounded: "The drama is invested by others, and they can use whoever they want."

The female voice seemed to be taken aback for a moment. Xia Chuqing looked in through the open door, and saw Jiang Yan, an artist from the same company, and her manager, Sister Wei, sitting inside. Jiang Yan's eyes were red, and she looked at Luo in disbelief. Nan Sheng took a long time before speaking again: "I just want to act cleanly, is it wrong?"

Luo Nansheng continued to sit behind the desk and busy, without raising his head when he heard the words: "People invested in this drama, and they want to use their favorite actors, is it wrong?"

Sister Wei grabbed Jiang Yan and said, "Ms. Luo, the key is that the actress who is changing now didn't come through a serious way at all. If everyone acquiesces to this unspoken rule, who will be able to act with peace of mind in the future? This kind of The atmosphere should not be encouraged."

"I'm not the discipline inspection committee of the entertainment industry, and I'm not responsible for cleaning up the atmosphere in the entertainment industry."

Luo Nansheng stopped writing and raised his head, with a serious and indifferent expression: "Sister Wei, I didn't expect you to be so naive after staying in the industry for so long. He invested his own money and didn't care if he paid it or not. He just wanted to praise his favorite actor. Boss, if you are not convinced, you can invest your own money in the shoot, but why do you have to? Do you want others to use you?"

Then he looked at Jiang Yan: "Your acting skills are good? But there are too many people with good acting skills in this circle. Others voted for the drama, and the rules require it to be clearly stated there. You can accept ok, but you can't accept leaving. That's it. Simple, what are you unconvinced about?"

Jiang Yan's lips trembled: "But they are not serious rules."

"I said, you don't have to accept it."

"Just because they invested money, can they do whatever they want?"

Luo Nansheng still said: "You don't have to accept it."

Sister Wei said, "Then what about Jiang Yan?"

"Go to another crew for an interview."

Jiang Yan wiped her tears: "Isn't that the case with other crews?"

Luo Nansheng looked at her indifferently: "Jiang Yan, you have ambitions, and if you want to be a front-line player, you must have the ability and sacrifice to match this ambition; or you must have luck, but if you don't have both, then Make up your mind to accept the script given to you by the company in a down-to-earth manner, this is the rule of the game, understand?"

Jiang Yan didn't speak for a long time, and after a while, she cried and went out with her manager.

Xia Chuqing stared blankly at Luo Nansheng's indifferent figure for a while, then went in with her things: "Why did you say those things to Jiang Yan?"

Luo Nansheng asked back: "Is what I said wrong?"

Xia Chuqing raised her head, her eyes were a little strange: "Are you going to ask your actors to accept those so-called rules of the game?"

"It's luck to be able to sign under my hands."

Xia Chuqing put down her things and said angrily: "Luo Nansheng, you were not like this before, why are you so distorted now?"

Luo Nansheng laughed ironically, stood up and pointed at the bustling crowd under the window: "Do you know how many people step into the entertainment circle every year? How many people can stand out? Do you know what these people are stepping on? It's the bones, including not only other people's bones, but also their own. You feel that Jiang Yan is wronged, that others should not treat her like this, but whoever enters the entertainment industry is not full of blood and tears? Why do you think you should If you are successful, others have given everything, why should you sink? You are arrogant? If there is a choice, who would want to make himself inhuman and ghost?"

Xia Chuqing was stunned, Luo Nansheng took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and sighed in a low voice: "This is just a price tag, what is it? What? In the corner you can't see, that is the real price." hell!"

Xia Chuqing felt pain in her heart, and lowered her head to apologize: "I'm sorry." I haven't participated in your life for the past six years, so I shouldn't accuse you casually.

Luo Nansheng rubbed his forehead, eased his attitude, pointed to something she put on the table and asked, "What is that?"

Xia Chuqing thought of her breakfast, and whispered angrily, "My breakfast!"

He opened the lunch box, touched it, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's still hot."

Then handed it to Luo Nansheng: "I called your assistant last night, and he said that you were too busy last night and didn't go back, so I made breakfast for you. I was afraid that the milk would be hot, so I tried to drink some."

Luo Nansheng was a little surprised, and said after a while: "You don't need to be so troublesome in the future, there will be breakfast downstairs."

Xia Chuqing didn't answer, and said instead: "I read the script, it's very interesting, but will it bump into the Empress?"

"No, I've already discussed it with the director of the Empress. Later, he will concentrate your scenes and put them all in the later stages."

After Luo Nansheng finished speaking, he made a phone call, and then asked Xia Chuqing, "Are you busy now?"

Xia Chuqing shook her head, Luo Nansheng said, "Then follow me to meet the director and finalize the play."

Xia Chuqing hurriedly stopped her: "You eat your breakfast first."

Luo Nansheng walked while holding the lunch box and said: "Eat on the road, I have something to do later."

The two arrived at the agreed place, and saw that the director was accompanied by a handsome boy, who was one of the male protagonists in this play, because Luo Nansheng knew the director very well, so not long after the two sat down, the director asked with a smile Luo Nansheng's opinion: "How about... let's try for a while first?"

The director of "True and False Girl" is named Wen. Although he only made an idol drama, he is very dedicated. The previous dramas were also very good in word of mouth, so even if Luo Nansheng invested in this drama, and the relationship between the two That's fine, but hers, too, have to audition first.

Luo Nansheng nodded irresolutely, then looked at Xia Chuqing, motioning for her to go up and try for a while.

Xia Chuqing was a little ashamed, the audition venue for "The Empress" was fine that day, there were so many people supporting her, but sitting in the private room today, especially in front of Luo Nansheng, made her feel very embarrassed and nervous.

Seeing her not moving, Luo Nansheng raised his eyebrows in confusion: "Go up!"

Xia Chuqing quietly pushed her: "You go out first."

Luo Nansheng: ...

Seeing Director Wen looking this way, she had no choice but to stand up and make an excuse: "I'll go to the bathroom, let them start first."

After going out and wandering outside for a while, Luo Nansheng guessed that it was about the same time before he opened the door and walked in: "Are you done with the trial?"

Director Wen smiled casually and nodded: "Okay, you have a good vision, and these people under your command have potential."

Luo Nansheng also pulled out a smile: "I'm overwhelmed, and I still need everyone to take care of me in the future."

Director Wen's eyes turned back and forth between the two of them for a few times, and suddenly approached Luo Nansheng mysteriously, and she gave her a cold look, then quickly backed away with a smile: "Xiao Luo, I heard that you have recently moved Fanxin , I made a good girlfriend, wouldn't it be the one next to me?"

"Cough..." Xia Chuqing choked, Luo Nansheng glanced at her lightly, and said in a dull tone, "Tao? Hearsay."

Director Wen's gossip laughed straight: "We're so familiar, why are you still hiding it from me?"

Luo Nansheng put down his chopsticks, and raised his head with a kind smile: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will withdraw the investment!"

Director Wen hurriedly raised his hands in surrender, lowered his head and ate the food seriously, Xia Chuqing looked at the director who became serious in a second in surprise, a little admired: this person is not an actor, he is really inferior.

Luo Nansheng turned his head and said, "Don't pay attention to him, except on set, he is with Two Hundred Five in life."

Director Wen raised his head to protest: "It hurts my feelings to say that. If it weren't for my ability, you could have succeeded so casually? I'm still half the man behind you..."

"Cough..." Xia Chuqing choked again.

Luo Nansheng couldn't eat anymore after he said a word, so he simply wiped his mouth and stood up: "Let's go!"

Director Wen didn't care, and greeted the dumbfounded actor beside him: "Eat vegetables."

Then he raised his head and raised his voice: "The funds are a little tight, how about adding more?"

Luo Nansheng beckoned without looking back, as a promise.

Xia Chuqing got into the car, fastened her seat belt, and muttered in confusion, "Why does everyone know, who told them?"

Luo Nansheng glanced at her with a half-smile, and Xia Chuqing hurriedly crossed her hands to cover her chest: "It's none of my business."

Luo Nansheng shook his head, started the car and said, "I'll put you on the side of the road later, can you take a taxi yourself?"

Xia Chuqing turned her head and asked, "Where are you going? I'll go with you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the phone rang. It was Xia's mother calling. She was worried that Xia Chuqing and Song Mingqi would not see each other all day, so she asked Song Mingqi to come home for dinner at night, and called to urge Xia Chuqing to go back early.

Because the phone was a bit loud, Luo Nansheng sat next to her and listened to it completely. Xia Chuqing was embarrassed while dealing with Xia's mother while looking at her. Feelings are going to break up..."

Luo Nansheng parked the car near the subway station: "You can take a taxi from here."

Xia Chuqing hung up the phone and sat in the car for a long time, just about to explain: "I..."

"For some things, the past is the past." Luo Nansheng interrupted softly, with a serious tone: "I am no longer the Luo Nansheng I used to be, Xia Chuqing, people must learn to look forward."

There was a moment of silence in the car, Xia Chuqing slammed the door and left, Luo Nansheng leaned on the back of the chair for a long time, then sighed and started the car, and walked to the cemetery: The interval between them was more than six years?How can anyone come back from hell and still bask in the sun?

Xia Chuqing got on the subway angrily, and gradually calmed down after a while, and slowly realized something was wrong: human transformation always needs a process, why did Luo Nansheng become what he is today?

She thought of Director Wen whom she met today, got off the subway in a hurry, and called Director Wen. It happened that Director Wen was fine at the moment, and the two made an appointment to meet in a cafe.

Director Wen smiled and said, "What do you want to know?"

Xia Chuqing first took out her mobile phone and showed him a few photos: "I was with her when I was in high school, and we separated for a few years, I just want to know what happened to her in the past six years? "

Director Wen took the phone and looked at it carefully: "It's true, I didn't expect that ice bump to fall in love early."

Xia Chuqing said seriously: "So I hope you can tell me what happened to her in the past few years?"

Director Wen said: "Actually, I don't know about the previous ones. When I met her, it was four years ago. Their family affairs were over. At that time, she had serious psychological problems, and she couldn't sleep all night. At that time, I also hit a wall because of my graduation, so I couldn’t sleep so badly, I sat in the park every night, and then I sat on the bench and watched her run around the park. I sat for one night and she ran for one night. "

As he spoke, he couldn't help laughing: "About half a month later, I couldn't help but ask her: Are you tired from running like this every night? She also asked me: Isn't it boring to sit like this every night?"

Xia Chuqing couldn't help laughing, "It's really her style."

Director Wen sighed, his tone stunned, and he seemed to have returned to that time: "I remember she asked me: Why can't I sleep? I said I couldn't find a job, and no one appreciated my works. She actually sighed with envy One sentence: What a happy trouble!"

Xia Chuqing couldn't help but clenched her hands. Director Wen looked at her and smiled and said, "Do you think this person deserves a beating? She said she was happy when she was unemployed? I really thought she was mocking me on purpose. Suddenly, she said again: "Let me invest in you. I really thought I met a lunatic at the time, so I ran away in fright. After a few days, I hit a wall again, so I went to the park again by accident, and saw that she was still there." I ran there, and then we cooperated like this, and I realized that her psychological problems were really serious, not only insomnia, but she couldn’t accept anyone’s touch. Once an actress touched her with an excuse, and she even The bile was vomited out; moreover, she would lose control of her emotions inexplicably, smash things, and hit her head against the wall. The first time I saw her like that, I was shocked by the bloodthirsty and madness in her eyes. "

Xia Chuqing asked anxiously, "Then what happened next?"

"Later... when we met for only three months, her psychological problems became more serious. She began to have hallucinations and couldn't eat. Then her family forced her to go abroad for treatment. About a year later, she When I came back, she said she was cured. I observed her a few times. Although she still doesn’t like being touched by others, she won’t react anymore. Although she still suffers from insomnia, it can be controlled by medication, and all other symptoms seem to be cured. , apart from becoming cold, there is no problem."

"Then...she didn't mention why it happened like that?" Xia Chuqing's tone trembled.

Director Wen shook his head: "She never talked about the past, but I have also heard some details from others: I heard that when she first entered the entertainment circle, she was bullied terribly, was splashed with boiling water; Kneeling down; being slapped; being thrown into a stinky ditch as a prank; being choked and poured alcohol; even almost being... but I think she is quite tough, these things will not force her Gotta break down, there must be something else? I don't know."

Xia Chuqing asked eagerly, "Don't their family care?"

Director Wen stared wide-eyed: "Didn't you know that something happened to their family? It was only found out four years ago, and those who bullied her before, except for one named Han Ying, basically disappeared in the entertainment circle. "

Xia Chuqing sat down on the sofa: That's how it is!

Desperately returning home, Xia's mother had already prepared the dishes, and while taking her bag, she complained: "I asked you to come back early, but you just returned to the dark!"

Xia Chuqing glanced at Song Mingqi who was sitting on the sofa: "Come out, I have something to tell you."

The Xia family looked at each other with some doubts, and Song Mingqi followed Xia Chuqing out the door with a gentle attitude: "What's wrong?"

"I can't pretend to be a couple with you anymore."

"What do you mean?" Song Mingqi frowned.

"I found her!"

Song Mingqi said earnestly: "Miss Xia, don't forget the agreement between us. Your problem has been solved, but mine hasn't been solved yet. Let's reciprocate and benefit each other. You can't use it up and just keep it?"

Xia Chuqing rolled his eyes at him: "You are too slow, what can I do?"

Song Mingqi smiled and said, "You haven't chased him yet, have you?"

"What's the meaning?"

"You help me? At home, I'll help you? Her!"

Xia Chuqing snorted, "How do you know I missed it?"

Song Mingqi sneered: "If you catch up, will you care about other people's lives?" Xia Chuqing has no principles at all, she is the most selfish woman he has ever seen.

Xia Chuqing asked a little awkwardly: "Then how are you going to help me chase?"

"You tell me who it is first?"

"You met, my agent."

"Luo Nansheng!" Song Mingqi widened his eyes and screamed.

Xia Chuqing nodded, and Song Mingqi stretched out his thumb in admiration: "I heard that this man is not close to men and women."

"That's because I didn't meet me. I promise to cover her with an ice cube and be so enthusiastic."

"Then it will turn into water."

Xia Chuqing was annoyed: "I've never heard of tenderness like water? Come on, what? What can I do?"

Song Mingqi smirked: "You may not know that in order to force us to get married early, your family and my family not only forced us at home, but also invested money in your film crew, asking me to live with you in the film crew."

Xia Chuqing's face changed, and Song Mingqi hurriedly comforted her: "This is a good thing. Think about it: If she really likes you, won't she be jealous? Then you can test her sincerity."

Xia Chuqing twitched her lips ironically: "What? What a bad idea, you think she is you?"

But... Xia Chuqing suddenly clapped her hands excitedly: "I have an idea!"

Song Mingqi: "Don't forget to help me."

Xia Chuqing waved her hand absently: "Don't worry!"

As soon as Luo Nansheng entered the office the next day, she saw the familiar lunch box on the table again. She turned to her assistant and asked, "Can I enter my office casually now?"

Before the assistant could speak, Xia Chuqing came over with a glass of milk: "I asked him to open the door."

Then he turned his head and gave the assistant a wink: "Get out!"

The assistant flashed away quickly, and Xia Chuqing approached her with a full smile, holding the milk: "Come, drink a glass of milk, you can grow taller."

Luo Nansheng: "Thank you, I have grown up."

Xia Chuqing opened the lunch box again: "I made chicken rolls for you."

"Ate."

"Are you tired from working all day? Shall I help you squeeze your shoulders?"

"It's only morning."

Xia Chuqing glared at her: No oil or salt!

Luo Nansheng raised his eyes: "Xia Chuqing, what exactly do you want to do?"

"To curry favor with you."

Luo Nansheng raised her eyebrows, Xia Chuqing sat down and sighed: "It's my first time joining the crew, I'm so nervous, you can go with me."

Luo Nansheng nodded to a pile of documents under his hand: "You want me to leave everyone behind to accompany you?"

"But I just came, shouldn't you accompany me?"

"You can ask several other seniors, have they ever been treated this way? I have already arranged for you an agent who will be in charge of you, and she will accompany you."

Xia Chuqing muttered in dissatisfaction: "The emperor still has three days to favor you, you heartless person, you put me in limbo the moment I came here!"

Luo Nansheng: "You have been here for a month, and the newcomer has long since become the old one."

Xia Chuqing: "I trade the old for the new, can't I?"

Luo Nansheng raised his eyes: "You mean you want me to cash you out?"

Xia Chuqing: ...
