Yi Lin's vacation was almost over after Christmas, and the arrival of the plane in the port city also represented the beginning of busy work. Richard's nanny car was already waiting for him at the airport, and he was taken directly to the scene of a trendy brand launch event.

Although he had been on the plane for more than ten hours, Yi Lin was obviously in a good mood.The reunion with Yu Qing and the vacation during this period made his body and mind adjusted for a long time, and his whole person looked a little bit brand new.

After getting in the car, Yi Lin took off his sunglasses and earphones and said hello to the staff he hadn't seen for a few days. Richard touched the cigarette from his pocket and handed it to the pressure. Yi Lin was just about to reach out to take it, but withdrew his hand in the air and said:

"I quit."

Richard glanced at Yi Lin, and he didn't seem to be surprised, so he lit a cigarette and started smoking.After taking a few breaths, I heard Yi Lin say:

"Richard, I made up with him."

Yi Lin's sudden words made the whole nanny car suddenly fall into silence. Finny glanced at Richard nervously, only to see that he just exhaled the smoke slowly and said:

"understood."

Richard finished smoking a cigarette, then dropped the butt in the water bottle.The car was very quiet, and the sound of the water in the bottle extinguishing the cigarette butt could be heard.

"Are you going to go public?" Richard asked.

Yi Lin was a little surprised by Richard's words, he turned his eyes back from the window, looked at Richard and said:

"There is no such plan yet, what's the matter?"

Richard handed the phone to Yi Lin, and continued: "There are a lot of photos of you taken by the street, but fortunately, they were all taken by passers-by instead of paparazzi."

Yi Lin looked at the photos on Richard's phone. Although they were not clear, he could vaguely see himself and Yu Qing holding hands, and there were many photos of entering and leaving the hotel together.

"You have to thank Yu Zhen for cheating. This incident caused a lot of trouble in the circle. Otherwise, the photo of you and him in London would be an entertainment headline."

Richard looked at Yi Lin who was flipping through the phone photos and said:

"After you replied to his Weibo, I used your account to reply to a few other fans' messages. Otherwise, combining these photos and your message, what we are going to today is not a new product launch conference, but your news Press release."

Yi Lin returned the phone to Richard and said, "I have troubled you these few days."

Richard took the phone, looked at Yi Lin and said:

"The vampire-themed movie invested by the US recently needs an Asian actor, and I will fight for you."

"Vampire?" This is obviously a topic that young people like very much, and Yi Lin seems very interested.

Ignoring Yi Lin's expectations at this time, Richard patted him on the shoulder and said with some seriousness:

"Nick, if your affairs are made public. Whether you take the initiative to come out or get exposed, the ending will not be too bad. The Hong Kong city may be fine, but the circle in the mainland will definitely not be able to get along.

Even if your fans support you, even if it looks like a bunch of rotten girls on the Internet.But in China, this matter is not mainstream after all.

The reason why so many artists have not officially announced that they are gay even though the industry knows that they are gay is because the Ministry of Culture will never allow a gay to be a star, let alone an idol of young people.Coming out of the closet is the same as taking drugs. Being exposed is a matter of losing one's job.

As long as the Cultural Affairs Bureau wants you to disappear, it is impossible for you to appear in public. "

After Richard finished speaking, Yi Lin didn't say anything.The only thing that was quiet in the car was the occasional shaking of the liquid in the mineral water bottle.

Yi Lin knows that even if he doesn't miss fame and fortune, it's actually not his business to do it or not.

If he left the company, it would be even more difficult for him to protect Yu Qing with his own strength. He had seen too many people who made trouble.But if he continues to do so, he is doomed to be with Yu Qing secretly.In that case, it would be impossible to give him a sense of stability, and it would be impossible to give Yu Qing the sense of security that he wanted most.

"The Lys commercial you shot has received a good response abroad. If you can accept this role this time, it will open up some international markets."

Richard sat closer to Yi Lin, put his arm around his shoulder and asked:

"Does my little Nick have the confidence to be an International Idol?"

Richard's words made Yi Lin not know how to answer for a while, it turned out that he had already started to pave the way for himself.He didn't say anything, but he knew that Richard was really on his side in this moment.And the effort he put in for this was hard work that Yi Lin could foresee.

Yi Lin looked at Richard and was silent for a long time before saying: "Thank you".

Yi Lin's eyes have always been the most valuable thing in Richard's eyes. His eyes gradually became darker, but the original cleanliness never disappeared.It seems so precious in this circle.

Feeling a little embarrassed by his thank you, Richard quickly said:

"Come less, come less! Do you think I'm thinking? I haven't seen anyone who is more suitable than you. If I meet a talented young man someday, I will definitely praise him. Now there is no way!"

Hearing what he said, Yi Lin laughed.There is a kind of hard-talking and soft-heartedness that should probably be called "Richard".It's good that Yi Lin didn't smile, he stared at Richard with a smile like this, which made him even more uncomfortable.

"Why are you looking at me! By the way, remember to go to Canada to see my idol when you have time, and don't keep thinking about dating. If I didn't look at him for his sake, I wouldn't bother to care about you."

"I'm planning to go, but he has invited friends to Switzerland. Uncle Qi is very busy, so he said he would come to Hong Kong City to see me when he was free."

"If he wants to come back, tell me in advance, and I will help you arrange rest."

"Hey, your treatment is too bad. It's so troublesome for me to take a vacation. Is it OK if Uncle Qi comes?"

"Of course, remember to let me have a meal!"

"Okay! What are you talking about!"

The dignified atmosphere just now dissipated without a trace in the two people's chatting and laughing. Finny looked at the two people who were joking, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Richard can see the changes in Yi Lin during this period, from the anxiety of knowing the beginning of his relationship to the secret joy when he broke up, and later worry.And the moment he saw their composite photo on Weibo, Finny's expression at that time will never be forgotten.

The manager, who seemed to outsiders to be mercenary and unscrupulous, said to himself:

"I have ruined the feelings and reputations of many people. I used the most powerful way for them to make choices and make decisions for them. But in the end, no one will thank me."

He personally contacted the website and the photographer of the photo, after dealing with a series of things.He closed the computer and leaned on the boss chair, looked at the ceiling leisurely and said:

"Is my previous failures because I treated them as commodities? If that's the case, this time, I want to help him. Just try again and see if it will succeed."

It didn't take long for the nanny car to send Yi Lin to the event venue. For Yi Lin, answering this kind of announcement was actually a very easy task.It's nothing more than standing on the stage, walking around the catwalk and being handsome.

But the highlight of this press conference is Yi Lin's low-necked sweater.The sweater revealed a tiny tattoo just below his collarbone, making journalists and fans alike curious.

After being asked a lot of things that had nothing to do with them, such as: their views on Zhen's cheating; their congratulatory speeches for Li Tianqi and Sun Lei's announcement of their marriage; and their wishes for Zhang Qier's successful birth of a child, the reporters finally You don't need to deduct key words from his answer to make the title.

"Nick, is the tattoo under your collarbone new?" A female reporter asked, and the sound of flashing lights and shutters was endless.

"Ah."

After hearing Yi Lin's affirmative answer, the reporters swarmed with questions.

"Can you show us?"

"It seems to be English letters, what is written?"

"Suddenly got a tattoo, does it have any special meaning?"

"You are still a student, will the company have any objections to your tattoo? Will it affect your good image?"

Richard had actually seen the tattoo long before he came on stage.He didn't ask Yi Lin to change his clothes, but explained to him how to answer.From this moment on, they are about to start paving the way for the future.

Every sentence of the artist is recorded by the reporter like a testimonial in court, and one day it may be dug up and re-hyped.No one knows when the relationship will be exposed, so before that, every little detail is an important link.

Yi Lin was not in a hurry to answer the reporter's question, but waited for them to finish asking, and then he answered calmly:

"My company respects my personal life very much and has no objection to this matter."

Just as Yi Lin finished speaking, another question came up.

"Your fans have many younger groups, if they imitate your behavior out of admiration, what will you think?"

This question is very sharp. If Yi Lin doesn't answer well, he will be crowned with the title of encouraging teenagers to get tattoos. This title can be big or small.

"Tattoos are likely to follow a person's life, so if they don't like it, I don't encourage people who like me to intentionally imitate my behavior."

Yi Lin answered objectively, he would not offend people who like tattoos, and made it clear that he does not encourage them.

"Then you mean, you still think tattoos will give you some bad impression?" The reporter chased after him.

"I don't think my tattoo will have a negative impact. Because the tattoo itself is a very neutral thing, just like a glass of plain water, in fact, there is no definition of good or bad, positive or negative. These are people based on His own values ​​are set for him.

Whether you agree or not is actually very personal, but no matter whether you agree with it or not, as long as it does not touch morality and law, I think it should be respected.

Not using my own values ​​to define the right, wrong and happiness of others has always been a way for me to deal with problems.So, I won't think about it. "

At this point in the answer to the question, Finny stepped forward appropriately and prevented the reporter from continuing to ask questions about tattoos.In the meantime, she put on a bad face with a blank face, and asked their questions to return to the brand endorsed this time, otherwise the interview time will be cancelled.

But obviously, Yi Lin's answer let everyone see the maturity and rationality of his thinking, and also laid the groundwork for the future.

This is just the beginning.
