24 Lies

The days passed by in a hurry.

Afterwards, Zheng Guanyu seldom mentioned things related to Mingzheng to others.

He felt like he was forgetting.Because when he went back to the room drunk again and met a half-naked boy waiting on the bed...he didn't tell the story of his heart, but drove them out tiredly.

He didn't want to talk about it, and he didn't want to recall it.Reinforcement is easy to forget, and that's not a good sign.The correct choice is to put it aside and wait for the next heartbeat to cover the previous one. People should not be trapped forever, and they must find a way to save themselves.

It's May.

Zheng Guanyu received a call from director Li Zhiyuan one day, inviting him to a celebration banquet to celebrate his new movie "Flower, Wind, Rain" winning overseas awards.At the end, I reminded him that it would be more formal, because it was his wife's birthday that day.

Li Zhiyuan made the first movie in his life, he is his bole, the relationship between the two has always been very good, they must go, there is no reason to refuse.

On that day, Zheng Guanyu tidied up and set off with presents for Li Zhiyuan and his wife.After handing the gift to Mrs. Li at the door, he met an actress Gao Zhi, who came over with a smile and called him, "Guanyu!"

Zheng Guanyu had collaborated with Gao Zhi on a spy film before, and they kept in touch intermittently. Zheng Guanyu liked Gao Zhi's bright personality, so he hurried over to say hello to her.

It happened that they all came alone, so they simply went to the self-service area together to get something to eat, and chatted about gossip while eating.

The venue was too big, and Zheng Guanyu was too lazy to run around. He planned to stay with Gao Zhi to eat, drink and chat, so he just came here for a soy sauce.

After all, the female star didn't dare to eat too much, she watched Zheng Guanyu eating snacks with a glass of champagne, and teased him: "I'm not afraid of getting fat!"

"The assistant isn't here." Zheng Guanyu said, "I'll sneak some food quickly."

Gao Zhi nodded: "I'll cover for you." After speaking, she lowered her voice, "Do you know who's coming tonight?"

Zheng Guanyu still had something stuffed in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Which investor?"

"No, it's Director Yan Mao!" Gao Zhi said, "I saw him just now, a group of people were gossiping about him, and he was accompanied by a little lover... a man! He seems to be a young actor, he looks good. "

Zheng Guanyu was also a little surprised: "...Really."

"It's just strange why Yan Mao came back. Isn't he staying abroad now? It feels like he hasn't been back for a long time."

Yan Mao, this is also a very important name.

Zheng Guanyu has never had the opportunity to cooperate with this director Yan, because Yan Mao's battlefields have been abroad all these years.Zheng Guanyu occasionally met Yan Mao a few times at the film festival, but only heard that he had a bad temper, was addicted to cigarettes, and liked to smoke cigars.

After eating, Gao Zhi said to touch up her makeup, Zheng Guanyu felt full and planned to smoke a cigarette.After the two separated, he walked through the main hall and went straight to the lounge.

If Zheng Guanyu knew that there were a group of directors smoking in the lounge, he would definitely not go in.

Li Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the right side, saw him stand up quickly and greeted him, "Guan Yu, come—"

Zheng Guanyu had no choice but to put away the cigarette, and walked over to say hello with a smile.

There are actually not many people, but they are all very prestigious people who need to socialize well.

He knew all these directors, except Yan Mao who was sitting in the middle smoking a cigar.Among all the people present, Yan Mao was dressed the most formally and had the most handsome appearance.

Zheng Guanyu sat and chatted with these big directors for a while, and listened to Li Zhiyuan talk about his new film plan. It turned out to be a same-sex film, and Li Zhiyuan hadn't actually made this kind of film.

Zheng Guanyu asked him if he planned to rest for a while.

Li Zhiyuan said that his film has actually been planned for several years, but the funds have not been in place.Now that he has investment and his condition is very good, he wants to finish shooting this film as soon as he has energy. This will be his last film.

In fact, there are not many directors who are so obsessed with film.The cost is high and the error tolerance rate is low. Although the film has that unique aesthetic feeling, it is a bit troublesome to shoot.

However, there are always some directors who have film feelings, such as Li Zhiyuan.

Zheng Guanyu listened to him for a while, and couldn't help feeling a little nostalgic for the past.

That "Day and Night" was also shot by Li Zhiyuan on film.

Li Zhiyuan looked very anxious: "It's not easy to find an actor, I haven't been able to find a suitable one..."

Zheng Guanyu was thinking of saying something to comfort Li Zhiyuan and take his time, but Yan Mao who was sitting in the corner suddenly said: "Old Li, why don't you let the one in front of you try? I think he is good, he can act now Among the actors, you are the best-looking student."

Li Zhiyuan glanced at Zheng Guanyu, smiled and said, "I want him to come, but I probably can't invite him now!"

As the words were pushed back and forth, several directors looked at him one after another.

Zheng Guanyu quickly answered, "Don't make fun of me, why can't I invite you?"

Li Zhiyuan smiled: "I did consider you at the beginning, but I know you must have concerns."

This movie can't pass the review in China, even the dragon label can't get it.For Zheng Guanyu now, the risk outweighs the benefit for him to make this kind of film, and it is not very cost-effective.

Although he is gay, he doesn't really want to accept gay movies. It is not difficult for him to play a gay character. Zheng Guanyu has no interest. His only regret now is the martial arts movie he has been thinking about.

At first, he wanted to pass the topic vaguely, but Yan Mao asked again: "What concerns?"

Zheng Guanyu smiled apologetically, "Director Yan, I may not be able to handle this kind of subject right now."

"Don't be burdened." Yan Mao slowly took a puff on his cigar, "Movies and actors are mutually successful. If you give up a role that suits you because of concerns about image and reputation, then..."

Before he finished speaking, someone walked in from the lounge.

Zheng Guanyu was still waiting for Yan Mao to finish speaking, but soon he couldn't hear anything.

The person who walked in passed by him, went straight to Yan Mao, and sat down.

The directors around were very calm, and they must have seen it a long time ago.Zheng Guanyu seemed to be the only one in the room who was not calm. He was so shocked that he lost his composure and almost stood up.

In the first few seconds, Zheng Guanyu almost thought he was dreaming.

Sitting next to him, Li Zhiyuan came up to him and patted his shoulder in some puzzlement, and asked in a low voice, "Guan Yu, what's wrong?"

Zheng Guanyu stared fixedly at Ming Zheng who was sitting next to Yan Mao with downcast eyes, and it took him a long time to think of saying, "He..."

How could he be here!

How could he come on such an occasion?

And why is he sitting beside Yan Mao?

Li Zhiyuan followed his line of sight and then suddenly realized, and replied in a low voice and vaguely: "Oh, that's Yan Mao's... who is it?"

Zheng Guanyu's expression changed instantly: "What?"

Yanmao?

He quickly recalled whether Yan Mao was married, and whether there had been rumors about raising a starlet... But Yan Mao hadn't been in the country these years, so he didn't know.

"What's the surprise? We shouldn't ask, let's not ask too much." Li Zhiyuan said, "Why, do you know him?"

Zheng Guanyu closed his eyes.This kind of thing is not uncommon in the entertainment industry. If he really followed Yan Mao, it was indeed much better than being with himself.

He lowered his head and smiled wryly, and replied Li Zhiyuan: "No, I just saw it in a movie..."
