Chapter 34 Extra Story 2 Previous Chapter: Window Paper
01 first encounter
"Tian Fei," senior manager Zhang Delong quickly knocked on the conference table twice, "it's you."
Tian Fei, who had been careless just now, laughed, sat up straight, crossed her legs, and twisted the necklace pendant hanging on her chest: "Brother Long, what's wrong with me?"
Zhang Delong was just putting on airs. He glanced at her finger and smiled: "You really dare to ask. You have signed several artists in the past few years. After signing and earning two votes, you throw it to others for agency rights. When I don't Know?"
This kind of thing is commonplace in Tianming, Zhang Delong has always turned a blind eye, but Kong Dongyue issued an ultimatum to the senior managers this morning, and cleared the chaos of brokerage rights within a week.The major brokers didn't dare to eat lunch, and immediately called their subordinates for a meeting.After Zhang Delong conveyed the meaning above, he pointed the finger at the most arrogant model.
Tian Fei knew that she was picked out to make an example of others, so she stroked her hair calmly: "I didn't find someone to act as an agent. I was too busy to take care of the little artist in my hand, so I asked others to help me so as not to waste resources , there is no need to be on the line."
Relying on her pretty face, she is frivolous and coquettish wrapped in spikes when she talks to anyone, and there is no battle that she can't win by playing hard and soft.Zhang Delong knew that she could stand up to it, so he used it to criticize and frighten others.
Zhang Delong looked around at the other small managers in the meeting room, and then returned to Tian Fei: "Wrong is wrong, take out the artists you don't want, and everyone will share. The administrative department has standardized the process. It has been confirmed in black and white this time, and it cannot be changed without my signature."
Tian Fei smiled softly: "Brother Long, those entertainers are all worth a lot, how can anyone be willing to be tied to them and be dragged down by them?"
What she said was true, but Kong Dongyue's determination to put an end to random signing artists was there, and he would definitely not take into account the interests of some managers.How could Zhang Delong have the courage to disobey, forcing the small managers to take out the materials of public artists in their hands and use the projector to show them one by one.
Most people were staring at the screen with disinterest, and the only sound in the meeting room was the hum of the projector and the click of the mouse.
"I want this."
The entire conference room was stunned, Zhang Delong turned his head to look at the person who made the sound, slowly let go of his frown, and gestured for the assistant to continue turning the page.
After all the documents were read, only Chen Moting got the attribution.
Zhang Delong simply and rudely divided the rest of the artists equally, and waved everyone out.Those involved in the littering of brokerage rights hurriedly escaped from the meeting room to clean up the aftermath, while Sun Jinghan lowered his head to pack up the documents unhurriedly, and a cigarette rolled from the table to his eyes.
Zhang Delong lit a cigarette by himself, walked around the conference table and walked towards him: "If you listen to my advice and don't get serious with Brother Dong about Chai Ke's matter, how can you be reduced to picking up trash?"
Sun Jinghan also lit a cigarette: "I didn't know Brother Dong's temper at that time."
"In two years, your contract with the company will expire. If you don't make some achievements, it's hard to change jobs."
"Yes."
The two were silent for a while, and Zhang Delong poked a cigarette butt into the ashtray: "It's too difficult to make money from Chen Moting, and it's easy to be dragged down by him. What you did today is unwise."
"In my current situation, it's almost a drag on him."
Due to Kong Dongyue's obscenity, Zhang Delong didn't dare to favor Sun Jinghan in terms of resources. He didn't know how to encourage his former proud student, so he patted him on the shoulder: "I brought you out by myself, don't embarrass the master."
"Do your best."
Chen Moting, who was wearing a basketball vest, got up from the ground, twisted his arms and glanced at the scratched arm, cursed with his mouth, stretched out his hand and shoved his opponent who was half a head taller than him.
"Is it great to be rich?!" The opponent pushed his chest back, but he grabbed the jersey and threw it on the player.
"It's great to be poor?" Chen Moting sneered from the corner of his mouth, and took a step forward, "Come on, I'll accompany you in all the games and fights."
The opponent broke free from his teammates who were blocking him, rushed forward and pushed Chen Moting out of the camera.
"Card!"
The director stood up from behind the monitor, scratched his head and turned around on the spot, and said with annoyed expression: "It still doesn't feel right, Chen Moting, look for the status by yourself."
Chen Moting trotted towards the chair.In the twelfth lunar month of winter, even if it is an indoor basketball court, the down jacket is too cold to put aside, and it is not warm to wear.He huddled in the chair and breathed on his hands, flipping through the script on his knees, a pair of leather shoes covered with slush came into view, and when he looked up, he saw an unfamiliar face.
The other party sighed silently, took off his long coat and handed it to him.
Chen Moting looked around, no one seemed to think that this person appeared abruptly, so he got up and took off his down jacket: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." The visitor took it and put it on his arm. After he got dressed, he handed out a business card, "My name is Sun Jinghan, and I'm your new manager."
Chen Moting paused while holding the business card: "Manager Xie doesn't plan to ask me anymore."
He signed with Tianming Culture for less than a year, and the agent who represented him changed like a lantern. Although he was used to it, he was still disappointed.He watched Sun Jinghan take out several documents from his briefcase: "Is this the next job?"
"No." Sun Jinghan showed him the cover of the document, "This is the brokerage contract between you and me. The company has standardized the process, and our cooperative relationship will be implemented in writing, and it will not be easily changed in the future."
Chen Moting is young after all, he can be warmed up quickly by wearing clothes with body temperature, and his fingers are not so stiff.After flipping through the contract roughly, there were already two signatures on it, one was Sun Jinghan, and the other was not Xie's agent but Tian Fei. He instantly realized that the so-called "replacement of agents" was actually borrowed by Tian Fei like a toy.
"In the future, I will make trouble for Brother Sun..."
"Chen Moting," the production manager ran over and interrupted him, "The director asked you to go over."
Sun Jinghan raised his hand to prevent Chen Moting from responding: "We are talking, don't you see?"
A winner of the Best Newcomer Award, which round will he be greeted by an unknown little director?Irresponsible managers randomly sign actors to bad teams in order to make money. Not to mention social status and status, even the basic respect has been worn down to such a point. Sun Jinghan really can't stand it.
"I have nothing else to do today, so I'll just stay here and watch over you." Sun Jinghan looked at the surprised Chen Moting, and took the contract from his hand, "I'll sign this after I see it clearly after work is over, don't worry."
"Brother Sun is causing trouble." Chen Moting turned his eyes to look at the director behind him, "The director is calling me, I'm sorry."
Sun Jinghan turned sideways to make way for him: "I should say I'm sorry, I just became your manager by talking to myself."
Chen Moting smiled.
Sun Jinghan followed him two steps behind, watching the director arrogantly criticizing Chen Moting's acting skills, the content of the criticism was pure venting without saying anything, even "fucking" popped out.Sun Jinghan frowned, took off his gloves, walked forward and handed them to Chen Moting, and nodded to the director: "Hello, I am Sun Jinghan, Moting's manager."
The young director bullied Chen Moting recklessly because he saw that Chen Moting had no one to back him up. He was caught off guard by the agent who suddenly appeared, and his arrogance faded away: "What's your business?"
"Come to visit the class and see if his work is going well. You two continue. I won't disturb you. Mo Ting put on gloves to keep warm."
The director wanted to reprimand the production manager for letting people in casually, but when he saw Sun Jinghan's crew pass hanging from somewhere around his neck, his eyelids twitched and told the production management to notify all departments to start filming.
This is a summer scene. In order to avoid exhaling white steam from affecting the shooting effect, Chen Moting put ice cubes in his mouth to cool down. He seemed to have something to say to Sun Jinghan, but he could only look at him and smile.
Sun Jinghan said in his heart that he could laugh out loud under such circumstances, which is simply too suitable for this hypocritical showbiz.
Chen Moting's acting skills are not perfect, but compared to the man and woman who acted with him, they are at least two grades higher.Sun Jinghan patiently watched from the sidelines, fully foreseeing that when this bad film is released next year, all indicators of Chen Moting's social status will drop again.
He accompanied Chen Moting to shoot for a whole day, and then drove him back to the hotel alone.Chen Moting has never had this kind of treatment before, and said with a smile that this is the benefit of having an exclusive agent.
Sun Jinghan glanced at him from the rearview mirror, feeling sorry for him and shameful for his former manager, picked up a cigarette, lit the lighter, and asked, "Do you mind?"
"do not mind."
Only then did Sun Jinghan light a cigarette: "I'm sorry."
"what?"
"I said this on behalf of the company." Sun Jinghan breathed out the smoke, holding the steering wheel with his hand holding the smoke, "I just said in private, the company failed you before, don't worry about it when it's over, let's start again from today .”
The smell of smoke slowly seeped into the air in the car, Chen Moting took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, is Brother Sun's catchphrase? I've said it twice today."
"Not found."
Chen Moting stopped talking deeply about it, leaned back on the car pillow and closed his eyes: "Brother Sun, do I still have hope?"
"Of course, that's why I won the opportunity to cooperate with you."
His calm voice sounded cold but unexpectedly sincere, Chen Moting silently raised the corners of his mouth.
The remuneration for each play is not as good as one, and the brands of endorsements and advertisements are lower than the other. Chen Moting himself does not believe that there is any future at all, but Sun Jinghan can open his eyes and talk nonsense without hesitation, which is a bit funny.
When the two returned to the hotel, Chen Moting read the contract from beginning to end, sat at the table and pulled out a pen.
"Aren't you going to discuss it with your family?"
Chen Moting had just written a pen at the signing place, when he heard Sun Jinghan's words: "What are you discussing?"
"Contract." Sun Jinghan said, "You have little social experience, so you should discuss it with your parents before making a decision."
Chen Moting lowered his eyes and smiled: "Brother Sun, you don't know yet. My family members object to my becoming an actor, and I still have severed relations with them, so I can't discuss with them." Okay, there's nothing wrong with the contract, you won't lie to me, and I have nothing to lie to."
He signed several documents, walked towards Sun Jinghan and handed them to him: "Thank you for the reminder."
Sun Jinghan only knew that he dropped out of school to enter the showbiz, and it was the first time he heard that he had no family support behind him, so he frowned slightly: "Where do you live now?"
"Over there in Tiantongyuan."
"How much is the rent?"
"Seven hundred."
This price can only be shared with others, Sun Jinghan took off his glasses and rubbed the bridge of his nose: "How many months are the rent due?"
"Two months."
"What are you going to do?"
"Renew the lease if there is no accident."
Sun Jinghan put on his glasses and looked at Chen Moting, who looked back at him calmly, as if he didn't think his situation was so pitiful.Sun Jinghan is very aware of how many jobs he has taken over in the past year, and knows that he still has 50 million yuan in his hands. He is living such a mediocre life. There is no other explanation except for a strong sense of crisis.
Let a child under the age of 20 worry about livelihood issues, and the relevant people can feel at ease.
"You can come to my house."
Chen Moting thought he was being polite: "It's fine for me to live by myself."
"Tiantongyuan's transportation is too inconvenient, and you don't know how to drive." Sun Jinghan put the documents in his briefcase, "If you want to get involved in the entertainment industry, you have to learn a lot, so you can't waste time on the road."
There was a crack in Chen Moting's smile, and he scratched the back of his head: "Brother Sun is serious?"
"Of course I'm serious." Sun Jinghan smiled, "I don't force it. If you are interested, you can go to my place to see the living conditions. It's not bad."
Chen Moting followed him to see off the guests: "It's quite inconvenient to take me home alone at my age."
"It's nothing inconvenient." Sun Jinghan opened the door, "I've always been single."
"That's not necessarily true." Chen Moting said with a smile, "I'm the love mascot, whoever gets close to me will fall in love and have children."
Sun Jinghan turned to look at him: "You worry too much, go to bed early, good night."
"Good night, Brother Sun."
02 improvement
Sun Jinghan turned off the alarm clock, sat on the bed and stroked his forehead to refresh himself for more than ten seconds, then put on warm clothes and a shirt.
When he lived alone, he could sleep through breakfast. Now that he has an adult cohabitant, he always feels obliged to set an example of healthy living, so he raises his wake-up time to 06:30, and finds something to eat when he can. Go to the table and wake up Chen Moting again.
Sun Jinghan walked out of the bedroom, and habitually glanced at Chen Moting on the sofa bed, only to see that the sofa had been folded and tidied up.There was an aroma of deep-fried dough sticks in the house, and there was a slight knocking sound from the direction of the dining room. Sun Jinghan followed the sound and saw Chen Moting filling tofu nao from a thermos bucket.
"morning."
"morning."
Sun Jinghan met his eyes, and his first thought was to go back to the bedroom and put on his outer pants, but this seemed even more strange, and he had to go to the bathroom in his boxers as if nothing had happened.
He slightly changed the layout of the living room to facilitate the display of the sofa bed, and used the study as Chen Moting's room, sharing the rest of the space.Chen Moting's sense of presence is extremely low, and after returning home, he just nestled in his room without making a sound, and occasionally went out to drink water or go to the bathroom. Most of the time Sun Jinghan saw him, he was sleeping soundly in the living room.
"You don't need to avoid me all the time. It's not about relying on others, it's about cooperation."
Chen Moting handed him the chopsticks: "I didn't hide from you, I was like this at home, and my dad thought I was avoiding him. I don't want to affect your original life, and you don't have to get up early to buy breakfast."
The last sentence is the truth.Sun Jinghan broke his chopsticks: "I didn't deliberately get up early."
"Come on, Brother Sun." Chen Moting said, "I'll make breakfast from now on, so you can sleep more."
If he is not allowed to do something, I am afraid he will not be able to live with peace of mind.Sun Jinghan didn't say anything, he acquiesced.
The two ate take-away breakfasts for a few days, and Chen Moting began to make enough food and clothing by himself, and gradually developed into even cooking dinner himself. As long as the courses and work were finished early, he would go to the market to buy vegetables and go home to cook for the two of them.Sun Jinghan had a lot of occasions and social occasions, often he was the only one eating at home, and he didn't mind, the leftovers were returned to the pot for breakfast the next morning.
Several times, Sun Jinghan got into the habit of reporting his whereabouts at night.
Chen Moting made dinner that day, picked up the kitchen garbage and carried them downstairs, opened the door of the unit and saw Sun Jinghan leaning on the railing and smoking, fascinated and turned a blind eye to the person in front of him.
"Brother Sun?"
Sun Jinghan was slightly stunned, and took off the cigarette between his teeth: "Moting."
"Why don't you go upstairs?"
"Think about something."
Chen Moting threw away the garbage first, and leaned on the railing when he walked to him: "You are hiding here to smoke."
Sun Jinghan was seen through by him, and he exhaled a puff of smoke: "I don't want to affect you."
"Actually, I don't mind. My dad also smokes." Chen Moting said, "I still want to learn, but no one taught me."
He always had a smile on his face, as if smiling was an instinct or a mask, and it was difficult to tell the real from the fake.Sun Jinghan asked him: "Why do you want to learn this?"
"Manly." Chen Moting flattered without changing his face, "My dad is very handsome when he smokes, and you are also very handsome when you smoke."
"It's an illusion."
Chen Moting turned to face him, with a serious face: "You teach me."
"Smoking is bad for your health."
"Working hard is also bad for your health."
"Work pays off."
"Smoking handsome."
Sun Jinghan was speechless and stubbed out the cigarette: "Eat first."
There is nothing to teach about smoking. For those who haven't watched movies and TV shows, as long as someone hands them a cigarette, they will naturally have an accent.Sun Jinghan didn't want to teach Chen Moting to smoke too much, it would do too much harm to his body, since he only wanted to be handsome, he just wanted to put on a show.
"Smoking can only show you how handsome you are, don't let anyone else know about it." Sun Jinghan watched him smoking a cigarette in a dignified manner, and lit one himself, "For an actor, image It’s a commodity, smoking will damage your commodity value, understand?”
Chen Moting nodded, and took a deep breath without a teacher. When he exhaled, the smoke was so thin that no lines could be seen. He looked down at the cigarette in his hand: "Smoking still makes you dizzy?"
Sun Jinghan knew that he had lung problems, and his face changed: "Don't smoke like this, it's easy to be addicted."
"It's okay, I'm very experienced with addiction recovery."
When he said this casually, Sun Jinghan frowned: "What addiction do you want to quit?"
"Nesomnia." Chen Moting raised his eyebrows, "Brother Sun, what kind of addiction do you think I have?"
This explanation came so frankly and naturally, Sun Jinghan was slightly taken aback, he only blamed himself for having too many complicated thoughts in society, what kind of addiction can a child have.
Chen Moting quietly breathed a sigh of relief while he was concentrating on emotion.
His addiction is Chen Shuwei, who has been with him day and night for six years. Hiding in the show business circle is the first step for him to actively quit his addiction. If he stays together for six or seven years, he may not be able to quit.
"Brother Sun."
"Ah."
"One day you get a girlfriend, you must tell me as soon as possible, I just move out, don't affect your relationship."
Sun Jinghan was confused: "Huh?"
"Going out on a date is different from going out for entertainment." Chen Moting leaned over to his shoulder, and sniffed it silently, "It smells like cigarettes when you come back from work, it smells like wine when you're out for entertainment, and it smells like body soap when you come back from a date."
Sun Jinghan used to pile the changed clothes on the washing machine, the smell of tobacco and alcohol was so strong that his nose was pungent, and the smell of body wash was a clear stream, it was hard not to be noticed.
Chen Moting is very familiar with this situation - as long as Chen Shuwei and Ling Jian work overtime at the same time, they will smell of this bath liquid and look different when they return home.
Sun Jinghan wiped out the cigarette butt: "I don't have a girlfriend, I just go out for one-night stands occasionally."
"One night stand?"
Sun Jinghan paused, thinking that he really wanted to teach the child badly: "It means not having a physical relationship with a fixed partner... It's too troublesome to make a girlfriend, and you need to maintain the relationship."
"It's not about me."
Sun Jinghan laughed, and rubbed his head casually: "I'm not that kind."
Chen Moting touched the back of his head: "That's right."
Sun Jinghan seldom had physical contact with people, so he patted his head by accident, awkwardly, and clenched his fists: "I let you move in to make your life more comfortable, so don't worry so much, let go."
"I didn't..." Chen Moting subconsciously denied, but Sun Jinghan stared at him, and changed his words, "Okay."
Sun Jinghan handed him another cigarette, and the two of them sat on the sofa watching meaningless TV programs, and chatted casually about work matters.Chen Moting looked at Sun Jinghan's finger holding the cigarette in a blink of an eye, seeing him put the cigarette in his mouth and hold it aside, he smiled without noticing it.
Before Sun Jinghan went home, he called Chen Moting, saying that the two had won the script for more than a month and would sign the contract tomorrow.Opening the door, Chen Moting was waiting at the entrance, took the coat he had taken off and hung it up.
"What are you doing so diligently?"
"I can't repay you. Only by being courteous can I show how much I appreciate Brother Sun."
Chen Moting has risen a lot in the past year, Sun Jinghan needs to look up at him now: "It's my own business, don't worry about it."
"Not all managers do their duties so well." Chen Moting led him to the dining room, "I bought a bottle of wine, let's celebrate in advance."
Sun Jinghan wiped the fog from his glasses and smiled: "You are too impatient."
It is no exaggeration to say that the two have eaten with casting directors all over the past year, just to get the right role.If it is a bad movie, even if it is the protagonist, even if the salary is too high, Sun Jinghan will never let Chen Moting take it.The roles he won for him were the protagonist's son, younger brother, colleague, and the so-called guest appearances. Although the salary was not high, Chen Moting had more opportunities to play against well-known actors, and more opportunities to show his face in front of the audience , will gradually be invited to participate in the programs promoted by the crew, and more and more will be taken care of by the camera.
His box-office appeal, which had been exhausted to pieces, was remedied little by little.
"Tomorrow I'm going to celebrate with my friends, is Brother Sun coming?"
"Your friends are all stars, it's not appropriate for me to get involved."
Chen Moting spread a napkin in front of him in a very professional manner, and brought out a steak from the kitchen: "I can get to know them mostly because of you."
"You make me sound like a matchmaker." Sun Jinghan watched him pour the wine for himself, and then he turned the bottle and raised the mouth of the bottle after he poured it for himself. He didn't know where he learned this trick, "I just happened to know Their managers create opportunities for you to meet, and the rest is your own communication. Managers and artists are in two circles, and the number of people on both sides is equal so it won’t be too embarrassing. If I’m the only one, it’s like a one-on-one fight.”
"Too."
Chen Moting poured himself half a glass, tapped the glass with the fork a few times, and cleared his throat: "Guests, movie fans, tomorrow I will sign the best role since my debut, and it's all thanks to my manager." , I’m here to thank him. And you all get on your knees and thank him.”
Sun Jinghan choked the red wine out of his nose.
Chen Moting hurriedly took out a tissue to wipe his shirt for him, while Sun Jinghan held his wine glass and continued to laugh, grabbed his wrist and took it away: "I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself."
Sun Jinghan took off his shirt and went to the bathroom to sprinkle washing powder: "If I attend tomorrow, are you going to say that?"
"How dare I." Chen Moting, who followed, leaned on the door frame and said, "I'll just talk about what's on my mind at home."
"You want them to kneel down for me?"
"Of course, I can't express my gratitude by kneeling alone."
Sun Jinghan glanced at him, smiled and threw the shirt into the washing machine, rinsed off the foam from his hands and went back to the dining room: "I thought it would take at least two years to get to this point, but now it's only been a year, I can only say that you are spiritual and talented." It doesn't matter much to me."
Chen Moting poured out the wine in his glass and refilled another glass for him: "Seriously, thank you for picking me up."
Sun Jinghan picked up the wine glass and touched him: "Thank you too."
"what?"
"Thank you for cooking for the past year."
Chen Moting's skill in frying steak was beyond expectation. While eating, Sun Jinghan explained some crew arrangements in advance, and said in his heart: Thank you for believing in me, thank you for being grateful to me, what you brought to me is far more than what I gave to you.
03 separated
Sun Jinghan walked out of the elevator looking at his mobile phone, turned right and took a step, and was hugged head-on.
"I am back."
Chen Moting followed the crew to other places to film for a few months, and seemed to have grown a few centimeters taller, and it was already difficult for Sun Jinghan to support him.
"A hug is enough." Sun Jinghan grabbed his shoulder and pushed him away, "Don't hug him casually in the future."
Chen Moting was still immersed in the excitement of finishing work, and when he poured a basin of cold water on his head, his face darkened: "Why?"
"I'm not used to hugging people."
"You didn't say anything when I hugged you before."
"I used to be taller than you." Sun Jinghan didn't know what to fight for this right, "Where is your key?"
Chen Moting followed him into the house unhappily: "Pocket, I haven't seen you for three months, I'm afraid you are not used to having outsiders at home, so I will wait for you to come back."
"You are not an outsider."
Relying on his own face in his blind spot, Chen Moting laughed presumptuously and silently: "Have you eaten, Brother Sun?"
"not yet."
"To wait for me?"
Sun Jinghan frowned: "Yes."
Chen Moting played the role of a supportive teacher who just graduated from university this time. Perhaps the good air and scenery in the mountains relieved his pressure, or he was too involved in the cheerful and sunny role. He seemed to be a lot looser when he returned to Beijing this time, unlike As restrictive as before.
It's a good thing, but Sun Jinghan is not good at dealing with frank people.
The two randomly found a home-cooked restaurant near the community to eat. Chen Moting gorged himself with a rough face exposed to the wind and sun. Sun Jinghan, who had no appetite, was starved by him and called the waiter for more food.
The waiter wrote down the name of the dish, and stood beside him babbling, unable to place an order. Just as Sun Jinghan was about to question her, he saw her staring straight at Chen Moting, who was absorbed in eating, and her head was almost tilted at a ninety-degree angle.
"Chen Moting."
"Huh?" Chen Moting raised his head with puffed cheeks, barely holding the food in his mouth, "What's wrong, you suddenly called me by my full name?"
Sun Jinghan pointed to the waiter beside him.
Chen Moting looked over in a daze, met the waiter's surprised eyes, and immediately showed a spotlight smile.
The waiter suppressed the screaming, clenched his fists and jumped on the spot, rushed to the kitchen to place an order, and then rushed to the cashier to ask for paper. As a result, even the proprietress ran away from her post and rushed to take a photo with Chen Moting to avoid the order.
Chen Moting said that there is no problem with taking a group photo, as long as it is free.
Sun Jinghan on the opposite side didn't say a word, just stood by and watched him being besieged by two people, taking pictures and asking for more than a dozen autographs.When everything was over, Chen Moting heaved a sigh of relief in embarrassment, and smiled secretly.
"Do you feel like a star?"
Chen Moting picked up the water glass, and pressed down the food that had been choking on his chest from just now: "Don't embarrass me, Brother Sun."
Sun Jinghan smiled smugly: "Next Thursday, I will be shooting a magazine. In the past few days, I will focus on cleaning up your face. It's too rustic."
"It's called health."
Sun Jinghan took out a cigarette: "There is a big difference between health and village children. It can only be regarded as a miracle that Tucheng can be recognized like this."
Chen Moting covered his chest: "It's too hurtful."
"The acting skills are not in place."
Chen Moting adjusted his expression, covered it again: "It's too hurtful."
Sun Jinghan laughed: "Okay, I'm sorry."
"Give me a sip."
"There are people all around." Sun Jinghan pinched out his cigarette, "Before the transformation, you honestly became the top ten youths for me in public."
Chen Moting looked at his fingers twisting the cigarette: "Brother Sun is very handsome when he teaches people."
"so so."
Sun Jinghan has no brothers and sisters, and his parents are not qualified. He has no habit of getting close to others since he was a child, and no matter how good his relationship is with his peers at work, they will not take their compliments seriously.Only Chen Moting, I don't know if his acting skills are in place, or his private life is too intertwined, but Sun Jinghan listens to his flattery with peace of mind.
Chen Moting protested, but he still did enough skin remedial work, coupled with the skills of the on-site makeup artist, he has already got rid of the image of a village boy under the camera.
Sun Jinghan suspended his other work that day, and concentrated on staying with him in the studio, taking a few behind-the-scenes photos and uploading them on Weibo with Chen Moting's account.With no budget and no team, Chen Moting not only needs to build his personal image, but also saves some of his savings for emergencies, so he doesn't even want to hire an assistant—this is the kind of treatment for a person who is left out in the cold.
"Congratulations." The editor who was on the scene for this shoot was also present, and said in a low voice, "Finally found a treasure after being aggrieved for so many years."
Sun Jinghan looked at Chen Moting under the spotlight, he moved his hands and gestures well, and his expressiveness was good, it was almost impossible to tell that he was a novice: "Let's take a step and see."
"I have Chai Ke's gossip, do you want to hear it?"
Sun Jinghan was not interested in Chai Ke's matter, but the editor was very interested, obviously he shouldn't refuse: "Listen."
"I heard that he uttered nonsense at a private dinner and offended..."
Sun Jinghan made a gesture of listening, but still focused on Chen Moting.In the past six months, the praise of Chen Moting has been spread to his ears one after another - he can act, learn quickly, is sensible and considerate, hardworking and humble, and full of charm.Sun Jinghan has lived for more than 30 years, and there are only three times when he feels that God has treated him well. The first time is from a precarious artist assistant to a formal manager. The second time is when Chai Ke in his hand becomes a blockbuster. To Chen Moting, a good seed with potential and talent.
Fortunately, others don't have this vision, or they don't have to put all their eggs in one basket like Sun Jinghan.
"Are you going to write this gossip into a magazine?"
The editor snorted coldly: "How is that possible? I publish a high-end magazine, and I'm not a street gossip tabloid. I just want to make you happy in private."
Sun Jinghan smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble."
Many people know the truth that Chai Keen accused Sun Jinghan of sexual harassment.As a good friend of Sun Jinghan, the editor would step on firewood whenever he had the opportunity, but he didn't have enough authority to prevent the popular singer from appearing in the magazine every time, so he felt even more resentful than the person concerned.
"Actually, I don't have any feelings for Chai Ke. Brother Dong taught him those words. How dare he not say them." Sun Jinghan turned to comfort him, "It's a lost cause. Maybe one day I have to thank him for letting me meet Chen Moting."
"Stop talking about such bad things." The editor draped his shoulders and leaned into his ear, "Have you introduced any good men recently?"
Sun Jinghan covered his face and pushed away: "There are so many delivered to your door every day, isn't it enough for you to choose?"
"I'll tell you a secret." The editor raised his left hand and used his index finger and thumb to draw out the length. "Models are all like this. Once they take off their pants, I have to carry a gun in the end."
"Aren't you happy in the end?"
"The cool way before and after is different, otherwise you feel wronged, and I... eh?"
"I don't sleep with acquaintances, it's a matter of principle."
"Yes yes yes." The editor let him go, "Brother Sun never violated the principles."
Sun Jinghan looked at Chen Moting in a blink of an eye: "Principles are to be followed, and sooner or later you have to clean up the mess after eating grass."
Qin Hao is the best example. He was originally a straight male co-tenant who lived in peace, but because of a drunken sex, he slipped inch by inch into the quagmire of entanglement.To be fair, it wasn't Qin Hao's fault alone, and he was also to blame for not refusing.At that time, the two of them were too lonely and fought alone.
In the final analysis, self-inflicted crimes cannot live.
In a blink of an eye, the magazine's publication date came, and Sun Jinghan filed the finished products sent by the magazine, and bought two copies by himself on the side of the road.Xiao Zao was away for Chen Moting's acting class that day, so Sun Jinghan turned to the page with his interview and put it on the coffee table, and sent a message to Chen Moting to say he would be home later.
Chen Moting knew that he probably had a one-night stand, so he had dinner outside, and when he came home and saw the magazines on the coffee table, he thought to himself that before the one-night stand, he was still thinking about work, and his dedication was a bit weird.
He took a few steps closer, a smile froze on his face.
Addiction, even if you quit it temporarily, is just lurking in the corner waiting for a small stimulus.Chen Moting wanted to retreat, but picked up the magazine and walked into the bathroom by accident.
A few years ago, he started to have sensual urges towards Chen Shuwei, and every time he had sex, he forced to replace the person in his mind with Qiao Zheng, otherwise he would not be able to forgive himself for such nasty thoughts.After escaping into the showbiz, his desire gradually became pure, and he no longer thought of a specific person to masturbate, so he quit Chen Shuwei, at least that's what he suggested to himself.
Chen Moting sat on the toilet seat and stared at the magazine cover, took a dozen deep breaths, wiped his face, unbuttoned his pants and began to masturbate.
His avatar was congested and stiff, and the pixels of the portrait in his mind were extremely low. He wanted to turn into Chen Shuwei a few times, but he forced him back to Qiao Zheng.Chen Moting was hot-headed, dizzy and tinnitus, and his palms were full of sweat. He looked at Sun Jinghan who pushed the door and came in with a hideous look.
"...Sorry for you to continue."
The magazine fell to the floor, Chen Moting was stunned for another two seconds, stuffed his pants and rushed out of the bathroom.Sun Jinghan's figure flashed at the corner of the entrance, followed by the sound of the door opening and closing.
Chen Moting rushed to the door in three steps at a time, and almost bumped into Sun Jinghan who changed his mind and turned back as soon as he opened the door.
Sun Jinghan raised the corners of his mouth and faked a smile: "Have you had dinner yet?"
"……ate."
Sun Jinghan bypassed him and entered the room: "You should be tired after a day of class, take a shower and go to sleep."
Chen Moting's mind went blank, and he stood still: "I'm gay."
"I see."
"and then?"
Sun Jinghan took off his coat and hung it in the closet: "No, you are not the only actor who is gay, so there is no need to make a fuss."
"Those people don't live in your house."
"They are stars, how could they condescend to live in my house."
He bluntly avoided the topic, Chen Moting became furious, and laughed angrily: "I'm masturbating in front of a man's picture at your house, do you think it doesn't matter?"
"It doesn't matter." Sun Jinghan left the entrance, "Just don't bring the man home."
"How do you know that I haven't brought it?" Chen Moting's suppressed negative emotions all these years burst out, "Where else would I dare to sleep with someone except you?!"
Sun Jinghan wrinkled violently
"Tian Fei," senior manager Zhang Delong quickly knocked on the conference table twice, "it's you."
Tian Fei, who had been careless just now, laughed, sat up straight, crossed her legs, and twisted the necklace pendant hanging on her chest: "Brother Long, what's wrong with me?"
Zhang Delong was just putting on airs. He glanced at her finger and smiled: "You really dare to ask. You have signed several artists in the past few years. After signing and earning two votes, you throw it to others for agency rights. When I don't Know?"
This kind of thing is commonplace in Tianming, Zhang Delong has always turned a blind eye, but Kong Dongyue issued an ultimatum to the senior managers this morning, and cleared the chaos of brokerage rights within a week.The major brokers didn't dare to eat lunch, and immediately called their subordinates for a meeting.After Zhang Delong conveyed the meaning above, he pointed the finger at the most arrogant model.
Tian Fei knew that she was picked out to make an example of others, so she stroked her hair calmly: "I didn't find someone to act as an agent. I was too busy to take care of the little artist in my hand, so I asked others to help me so as not to waste resources , there is no need to be on the line."
Relying on her pretty face, she is frivolous and coquettish wrapped in spikes when she talks to anyone, and there is no battle that she can't win by playing hard and soft.Zhang Delong knew that she could stand up to it, so he used it to criticize and frighten others.
Zhang Delong looked around at the other small managers in the meeting room, and then returned to Tian Fei: "Wrong is wrong, take out the artists you don't want, and everyone will share. The administrative department has standardized the process. It has been confirmed in black and white this time, and it cannot be changed without my signature."
Tian Fei smiled softly: "Brother Long, those entertainers are all worth a lot, how can anyone be willing to be tied to them and be dragged down by them?"
What she said was true, but Kong Dongyue's determination to put an end to random signing artists was there, and he would definitely not take into account the interests of some managers.How could Zhang Delong have the courage to disobey, forcing the small managers to take out the materials of public artists in their hands and use the projector to show them one by one.
Most people were staring at the screen with disinterest, and the only sound in the meeting room was the hum of the projector and the click of the mouse.
"I want this."
The entire conference room was stunned, Zhang Delong turned his head to look at the person who made the sound, slowly let go of his frown, and gestured for the assistant to continue turning the page.
After all the documents were read, only Chen Moting got the attribution.
Zhang Delong simply and rudely divided the rest of the artists equally, and waved everyone out.Those involved in the littering of brokerage rights hurriedly escaped from the meeting room to clean up the aftermath, while Sun Jinghan lowered his head to pack up the documents unhurriedly, and a cigarette rolled from the table to his eyes.
Zhang Delong lit a cigarette by himself, walked around the conference table and walked towards him: "If you listen to my advice and don't get serious with Brother Dong about Chai Ke's matter, how can you be reduced to picking up trash?"
Sun Jinghan also lit a cigarette: "I didn't know Brother Dong's temper at that time."
"In two years, your contract with the company will expire. If you don't make some achievements, it's hard to change jobs."
"Yes."
The two were silent for a while, and Zhang Delong poked a cigarette butt into the ashtray: "It's too difficult to make money from Chen Moting, and it's easy to be dragged down by him. What you did today is unwise."
"In my current situation, it's almost a drag on him."
Due to Kong Dongyue's obscenity, Zhang Delong didn't dare to favor Sun Jinghan in terms of resources. He didn't know how to encourage his former proud student, so he patted him on the shoulder: "I brought you out by myself, don't embarrass the master."
"Do your best."
Chen Moting, who was wearing a basketball vest, got up from the ground, twisted his arms and glanced at the scratched arm, cursed with his mouth, stretched out his hand and shoved his opponent who was half a head taller than him.
"Is it great to be rich?!" The opponent pushed his chest back, but he grabbed the jersey and threw it on the player.
"It's great to be poor?" Chen Moting sneered from the corner of his mouth, and took a step forward, "Come on, I'll accompany you in all the games and fights."
The opponent broke free from his teammates who were blocking him, rushed forward and pushed Chen Moting out of the camera.
"Card!"
The director stood up from behind the monitor, scratched his head and turned around on the spot, and said with annoyed expression: "It still doesn't feel right, Chen Moting, look for the status by yourself."
Chen Moting trotted towards the chair.In the twelfth lunar month of winter, even if it is an indoor basketball court, the down jacket is too cold to put aside, and it is not warm to wear.He huddled in the chair and breathed on his hands, flipping through the script on his knees, a pair of leather shoes covered with slush came into view, and when he looked up, he saw an unfamiliar face.
The other party sighed silently, took off his long coat and handed it to him.
Chen Moting looked around, no one seemed to think that this person appeared abruptly, so he got up and took off his down jacket: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." The visitor took it and put it on his arm. After he got dressed, he handed out a business card, "My name is Sun Jinghan, and I'm your new manager."
Chen Moting paused while holding the business card: "Manager Xie doesn't plan to ask me anymore."
He signed with Tianming Culture for less than a year, and the agent who represented him changed like a lantern. Although he was used to it, he was still disappointed.He watched Sun Jinghan take out several documents from his briefcase: "Is this the next job?"
"No." Sun Jinghan showed him the cover of the document, "This is the brokerage contract between you and me. The company has standardized the process, and our cooperative relationship will be implemented in writing, and it will not be easily changed in the future."
Chen Moting is young after all, he can be warmed up quickly by wearing clothes with body temperature, and his fingers are not so stiff.After flipping through the contract roughly, there were already two signatures on it, one was Sun Jinghan, and the other was not Xie's agent but Tian Fei. He instantly realized that the so-called "replacement of agents" was actually borrowed by Tian Fei like a toy.
"In the future, I will make trouble for Brother Sun..."
"Chen Moting," the production manager ran over and interrupted him, "The director asked you to go over."
Sun Jinghan raised his hand to prevent Chen Moting from responding: "We are talking, don't you see?"
A winner of the Best Newcomer Award, which round will he be greeted by an unknown little director?Irresponsible managers randomly sign actors to bad teams in order to make money. Not to mention social status and status, even the basic respect has been worn down to such a point. Sun Jinghan really can't stand it.
"I have nothing else to do today, so I'll just stay here and watch over you." Sun Jinghan looked at the surprised Chen Moting, and took the contract from his hand, "I'll sign this after I see it clearly after work is over, don't worry."
"Brother Sun is causing trouble." Chen Moting turned his eyes to look at the director behind him, "The director is calling me, I'm sorry."
Sun Jinghan turned sideways to make way for him: "I should say I'm sorry, I just became your manager by talking to myself."
Chen Moting smiled.
Sun Jinghan followed him two steps behind, watching the director arrogantly criticizing Chen Moting's acting skills, the content of the criticism was pure venting without saying anything, even "fucking" popped out.Sun Jinghan frowned, took off his gloves, walked forward and handed them to Chen Moting, and nodded to the director: "Hello, I am Sun Jinghan, Moting's manager."
The young director bullied Chen Moting recklessly because he saw that Chen Moting had no one to back him up. He was caught off guard by the agent who suddenly appeared, and his arrogance faded away: "What's your business?"
"Come to visit the class and see if his work is going well. You two continue. I won't disturb you. Mo Ting put on gloves to keep warm."
The director wanted to reprimand the production manager for letting people in casually, but when he saw Sun Jinghan's crew pass hanging from somewhere around his neck, his eyelids twitched and told the production management to notify all departments to start filming.
This is a summer scene. In order to avoid exhaling white steam from affecting the shooting effect, Chen Moting put ice cubes in his mouth to cool down. He seemed to have something to say to Sun Jinghan, but he could only look at him and smile.
Sun Jinghan said in his heart that he could laugh out loud under such circumstances, which is simply too suitable for this hypocritical showbiz.
Chen Moting's acting skills are not perfect, but compared to the man and woman who acted with him, they are at least two grades higher.Sun Jinghan patiently watched from the sidelines, fully foreseeing that when this bad film is released next year, all indicators of Chen Moting's social status will drop again.
He accompanied Chen Moting to shoot for a whole day, and then drove him back to the hotel alone.Chen Moting has never had this kind of treatment before, and said with a smile that this is the benefit of having an exclusive agent.
Sun Jinghan glanced at him from the rearview mirror, feeling sorry for him and shameful for his former manager, picked up a cigarette, lit the lighter, and asked, "Do you mind?"
"do not mind."
Only then did Sun Jinghan light a cigarette: "I'm sorry."
"what?"
"I said this on behalf of the company." Sun Jinghan breathed out the smoke, holding the steering wheel with his hand holding the smoke, "I just said in private, the company failed you before, don't worry about it when it's over, let's start again from today .”
The smell of smoke slowly seeped into the air in the car, Chen Moting took a deep breath, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, is Brother Sun's catchphrase? I've said it twice today."
"Not found."
Chen Moting stopped talking deeply about it, leaned back on the car pillow and closed his eyes: "Brother Sun, do I still have hope?"
"Of course, that's why I won the opportunity to cooperate with you."
His calm voice sounded cold but unexpectedly sincere, Chen Moting silently raised the corners of his mouth.
The remuneration for each play is not as good as one, and the brands of endorsements and advertisements are lower than the other. Chen Moting himself does not believe that there is any future at all, but Sun Jinghan can open his eyes and talk nonsense without hesitation, which is a bit funny.
When the two returned to the hotel, Chen Moting read the contract from beginning to end, sat at the table and pulled out a pen.
"Aren't you going to discuss it with your family?"
Chen Moting had just written a pen at the signing place, when he heard Sun Jinghan's words: "What are you discussing?"
"Contract." Sun Jinghan said, "You have little social experience, so you should discuss it with your parents before making a decision."
Chen Moting lowered his eyes and smiled: "Brother Sun, you don't know yet. My family members object to my becoming an actor, and I still have severed relations with them, so I can't discuss with them." Okay, there's nothing wrong with the contract, you won't lie to me, and I have nothing to lie to."
He signed several documents, walked towards Sun Jinghan and handed them to him: "Thank you for the reminder."
Sun Jinghan only knew that he dropped out of school to enter the showbiz, and it was the first time he heard that he had no family support behind him, so he frowned slightly: "Where do you live now?"
"Over there in Tiantongyuan."
"How much is the rent?"
"Seven hundred."
This price can only be shared with others, Sun Jinghan took off his glasses and rubbed the bridge of his nose: "How many months are the rent due?"
"Two months."
"What are you going to do?"
"Renew the lease if there is no accident."
Sun Jinghan put on his glasses and looked at Chen Moting, who looked back at him calmly, as if he didn't think his situation was so pitiful.Sun Jinghan is very aware of how many jobs he has taken over in the past year, and knows that he still has 50 million yuan in his hands. He is living such a mediocre life. There is no other explanation except for a strong sense of crisis.
Let a child under the age of 20 worry about livelihood issues, and the relevant people can feel at ease.
"You can come to my house."
Chen Moting thought he was being polite: "It's fine for me to live by myself."
"Tiantongyuan's transportation is too inconvenient, and you don't know how to drive." Sun Jinghan put the documents in his briefcase, "If you want to get involved in the entertainment industry, you have to learn a lot, so you can't waste time on the road."
There was a crack in Chen Moting's smile, and he scratched the back of his head: "Brother Sun is serious?"
"Of course I'm serious." Sun Jinghan smiled, "I don't force it. If you are interested, you can go to my place to see the living conditions. It's not bad."
Chen Moting followed him to see off the guests: "It's quite inconvenient to take me home alone at my age."
"It's nothing inconvenient." Sun Jinghan opened the door, "I've always been single."
"That's not necessarily true." Chen Moting said with a smile, "I'm the love mascot, whoever gets close to me will fall in love and have children."
Sun Jinghan turned to look at him: "You worry too much, go to bed early, good night."
"Good night, Brother Sun."
02 improvement
Sun Jinghan turned off the alarm clock, sat on the bed and stroked his forehead to refresh himself for more than ten seconds, then put on warm clothes and a shirt.
When he lived alone, he could sleep through breakfast. Now that he has an adult cohabitant, he always feels obliged to set an example of healthy living, so he raises his wake-up time to 06:30, and finds something to eat when he can. Go to the table and wake up Chen Moting again.
Sun Jinghan walked out of the bedroom, and habitually glanced at Chen Moting on the sofa bed, only to see that the sofa had been folded and tidied up.There was an aroma of deep-fried dough sticks in the house, and there was a slight knocking sound from the direction of the dining room. Sun Jinghan followed the sound and saw Chen Moting filling tofu nao from a thermos bucket.
"morning."
"morning."
Sun Jinghan met his eyes, and his first thought was to go back to the bedroom and put on his outer pants, but this seemed even more strange, and he had to go to the bathroom in his boxers as if nothing had happened.
He slightly changed the layout of the living room to facilitate the display of the sofa bed, and used the study as Chen Moting's room, sharing the rest of the space.Chen Moting's sense of presence is extremely low, and after returning home, he just nestled in his room without making a sound, and occasionally went out to drink water or go to the bathroom. Most of the time Sun Jinghan saw him, he was sleeping soundly in the living room.
"You don't need to avoid me all the time. It's not about relying on others, it's about cooperation."
Chen Moting handed him the chopsticks: "I didn't hide from you, I was like this at home, and my dad thought I was avoiding him. I don't want to affect your original life, and you don't have to get up early to buy breakfast."
The last sentence is the truth.Sun Jinghan broke his chopsticks: "I didn't deliberately get up early."
"Come on, Brother Sun." Chen Moting said, "I'll make breakfast from now on, so you can sleep more."
If he is not allowed to do something, I am afraid he will not be able to live with peace of mind.Sun Jinghan didn't say anything, he acquiesced.
The two ate take-away breakfasts for a few days, and Chen Moting began to make enough food and clothing by himself, and gradually developed into even cooking dinner himself. As long as the courses and work were finished early, he would go to the market to buy vegetables and go home to cook for the two of them.Sun Jinghan had a lot of occasions and social occasions, often he was the only one eating at home, and he didn't mind, the leftovers were returned to the pot for breakfast the next morning.
Several times, Sun Jinghan got into the habit of reporting his whereabouts at night.
Chen Moting made dinner that day, picked up the kitchen garbage and carried them downstairs, opened the door of the unit and saw Sun Jinghan leaning on the railing and smoking, fascinated and turned a blind eye to the person in front of him.
"Brother Sun?"
Sun Jinghan was slightly stunned, and took off the cigarette between his teeth: "Moting."
"Why don't you go upstairs?"
"Think about something."
Chen Moting threw away the garbage first, and leaned on the railing when he walked to him: "You are hiding here to smoke."
Sun Jinghan was seen through by him, and he exhaled a puff of smoke: "I don't want to affect you."
"Actually, I don't mind. My dad also smokes." Chen Moting said, "I still want to learn, but no one taught me."
He always had a smile on his face, as if smiling was an instinct or a mask, and it was difficult to tell the real from the fake.Sun Jinghan asked him: "Why do you want to learn this?"
"Manly." Chen Moting flattered without changing his face, "My dad is very handsome when he smokes, and you are also very handsome when you smoke."
"It's an illusion."
Chen Moting turned to face him, with a serious face: "You teach me."
"Smoking is bad for your health."
"Working hard is also bad for your health."
"Work pays off."
"Smoking handsome."
Sun Jinghan was speechless and stubbed out the cigarette: "Eat first."
There is nothing to teach about smoking. For those who haven't watched movies and TV shows, as long as someone hands them a cigarette, they will naturally have an accent.Sun Jinghan didn't want to teach Chen Moting to smoke too much, it would do too much harm to his body, since he only wanted to be handsome, he just wanted to put on a show.
"Smoking can only show you how handsome you are, don't let anyone else know about it." Sun Jinghan watched him smoking a cigarette in a dignified manner, and lit one himself, "For an actor, image It’s a commodity, smoking will damage your commodity value, understand?”
Chen Moting nodded, and took a deep breath without a teacher. When he exhaled, the smoke was so thin that no lines could be seen. He looked down at the cigarette in his hand: "Smoking still makes you dizzy?"
Sun Jinghan knew that he had lung problems, and his face changed: "Don't smoke like this, it's easy to be addicted."
"It's okay, I'm very experienced with addiction recovery."
When he said this casually, Sun Jinghan frowned: "What addiction do you want to quit?"
"Nesomnia." Chen Moting raised his eyebrows, "Brother Sun, what kind of addiction do you think I have?"
This explanation came so frankly and naturally, Sun Jinghan was slightly taken aback, he only blamed himself for having too many complicated thoughts in society, what kind of addiction can a child have.
Chen Moting quietly breathed a sigh of relief while he was concentrating on emotion.
His addiction is Chen Shuwei, who has been with him day and night for six years. Hiding in the show business circle is the first step for him to actively quit his addiction. If he stays together for six or seven years, he may not be able to quit.
"Brother Sun."
"Ah."
"One day you get a girlfriend, you must tell me as soon as possible, I just move out, don't affect your relationship."
Sun Jinghan was confused: "Huh?"
"Going out on a date is different from going out for entertainment." Chen Moting leaned over to his shoulder, and sniffed it silently, "It smells like cigarettes when you come back from work, it smells like wine when you're out for entertainment, and it smells like body soap when you come back from a date."
Sun Jinghan used to pile the changed clothes on the washing machine, the smell of tobacco and alcohol was so strong that his nose was pungent, and the smell of body wash was a clear stream, it was hard not to be noticed.
Chen Moting is very familiar with this situation - as long as Chen Shuwei and Ling Jian work overtime at the same time, they will smell of this bath liquid and look different when they return home.
Sun Jinghan wiped out the cigarette butt: "I don't have a girlfriend, I just go out for one-night stands occasionally."
"One night stand?"
Sun Jinghan paused, thinking that he really wanted to teach the child badly: "It means not having a physical relationship with a fixed partner... It's too troublesome to make a girlfriend, and you need to maintain the relationship."
"It's not about me."
Sun Jinghan laughed, and rubbed his head casually: "I'm not that kind."
Chen Moting touched the back of his head: "That's right."
Sun Jinghan seldom had physical contact with people, so he patted his head by accident, awkwardly, and clenched his fists: "I let you move in to make your life more comfortable, so don't worry so much, let go."
"I didn't..." Chen Moting subconsciously denied, but Sun Jinghan stared at him, and changed his words, "Okay."
Sun Jinghan handed him another cigarette, and the two of them sat on the sofa watching meaningless TV programs, and chatted casually about work matters.Chen Moting looked at Sun Jinghan's finger holding the cigarette in a blink of an eye, seeing him put the cigarette in his mouth and hold it aside, he smiled without noticing it.
Before Sun Jinghan went home, he called Chen Moting, saying that the two had won the script for more than a month and would sign the contract tomorrow.Opening the door, Chen Moting was waiting at the entrance, took the coat he had taken off and hung it up.
"What are you doing so diligently?"
"I can't repay you. Only by being courteous can I show how much I appreciate Brother Sun."
Chen Moting has risen a lot in the past year, Sun Jinghan needs to look up at him now: "It's my own business, don't worry about it."
"Not all managers do their duties so well." Chen Moting led him to the dining room, "I bought a bottle of wine, let's celebrate in advance."
Sun Jinghan wiped the fog from his glasses and smiled: "You are too impatient."
It is no exaggeration to say that the two have eaten with casting directors all over the past year, just to get the right role.If it is a bad movie, even if it is the protagonist, even if the salary is too high, Sun Jinghan will never let Chen Moting take it.The roles he won for him were the protagonist's son, younger brother, colleague, and the so-called guest appearances. Although the salary was not high, Chen Moting had more opportunities to play against well-known actors, and more opportunities to show his face in front of the audience , will gradually be invited to participate in the programs promoted by the crew, and more and more will be taken care of by the camera.
His box-office appeal, which had been exhausted to pieces, was remedied little by little.
"Tomorrow I'm going to celebrate with my friends, is Brother Sun coming?"
"Your friends are all stars, it's not appropriate for me to get involved."
Chen Moting spread a napkin in front of him in a very professional manner, and brought out a steak from the kitchen: "I can get to know them mostly because of you."
"You make me sound like a matchmaker." Sun Jinghan watched him pour the wine for himself, and then he turned the bottle and raised the mouth of the bottle after he poured it for himself. He didn't know where he learned this trick, "I just happened to know Their managers create opportunities for you to meet, and the rest is your own communication. Managers and artists are in two circles, and the number of people on both sides is equal so it won’t be too embarrassing. If I’m the only one, it’s like a one-on-one fight.”
"Too."
Chen Moting poured himself half a glass, tapped the glass with the fork a few times, and cleared his throat: "Guests, movie fans, tomorrow I will sign the best role since my debut, and it's all thanks to my manager." , I’m here to thank him. And you all get on your knees and thank him.”
Sun Jinghan choked the red wine out of his nose.
Chen Moting hurriedly took out a tissue to wipe his shirt for him, while Sun Jinghan held his wine glass and continued to laugh, grabbed his wrist and took it away: "I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself."
Sun Jinghan took off his shirt and went to the bathroom to sprinkle washing powder: "If I attend tomorrow, are you going to say that?"
"How dare I." Chen Moting, who followed, leaned on the door frame and said, "I'll just talk about what's on my mind at home."
"You want them to kneel down for me?"
"Of course, I can't express my gratitude by kneeling alone."
Sun Jinghan glanced at him, smiled and threw the shirt into the washing machine, rinsed off the foam from his hands and went back to the dining room: "I thought it would take at least two years to get to this point, but now it's only been a year, I can only say that you are spiritual and talented." It doesn't matter much to me."
Chen Moting poured out the wine in his glass and refilled another glass for him: "Seriously, thank you for picking me up."
Sun Jinghan picked up the wine glass and touched him: "Thank you too."
"what?"
"Thank you for cooking for the past year."
Chen Moting's skill in frying steak was beyond expectation. While eating, Sun Jinghan explained some crew arrangements in advance, and said in his heart: Thank you for believing in me, thank you for being grateful to me, what you brought to me is far more than what I gave to you.
03 separated
Sun Jinghan walked out of the elevator looking at his mobile phone, turned right and took a step, and was hugged head-on.
"I am back."
Chen Moting followed the crew to other places to film for a few months, and seemed to have grown a few centimeters taller, and it was already difficult for Sun Jinghan to support him.
"A hug is enough." Sun Jinghan grabbed his shoulder and pushed him away, "Don't hug him casually in the future."
Chen Moting was still immersed in the excitement of finishing work, and when he poured a basin of cold water on his head, his face darkened: "Why?"
"I'm not used to hugging people."
"You didn't say anything when I hugged you before."
"I used to be taller than you." Sun Jinghan didn't know what to fight for this right, "Where is your key?"
Chen Moting followed him into the house unhappily: "Pocket, I haven't seen you for three months, I'm afraid you are not used to having outsiders at home, so I will wait for you to come back."
"You are not an outsider."
Relying on his own face in his blind spot, Chen Moting laughed presumptuously and silently: "Have you eaten, Brother Sun?"
"not yet."
"To wait for me?"
Sun Jinghan frowned: "Yes."
Chen Moting played the role of a supportive teacher who just graduated from university this time. Perhaps the good air and scenery in the mountains relieved his pressure, or he was too involved in the cheerful and sunny role. He seemed to be a lot looser when he returned to Beijing this time, unlike As restrictive as before.
It's a good thing, but Sun Jinghan is not good at dealing with frank people.
The two randomly found a home-cooked restaurant near the community to eat. Chen Moting gorged himself with a rough face exposed to the wind and sun. Sun Jinghan, who had no appetite, was starved by him and called the waiter for more food.
The waiter wrote down the name of the dish, and stood beside him babbling, unable to place an order. Just as Sun Jinghan was about to question her, he saw her staring straight at Chen Moting, who was absorbed in eating, and her head was almost tilted at a ninety-degree angle.
"Chen Moting."
"Huh?" Chen Moting raised his head with puffed cheeks, barely holding the food in his mouth, "What's wrong, you suddenly called me by my full name?"
Sun Jinghan pointed to the waiter beside him.
Chen Moting looked over in a daze, met the waiter's surprised eyes, and immediately showed a spotlight smile.
The waiter suppressed the screaming, clenched his fists and jumped on the spot, rushed to the kitchen to place an order, and then rushed to the cashier to ask for paper. As a result, even the proprietress ran away from her post and rushed to take a photo with Chen Moting to avoid the order.
Chen Moting said that there is no problem with taking a group photo, as long as it is free.
Sun Jinghan on the opposite side didn't say a word, just stood by and watched him being besieged by two people, taking pictures and asking for more than a dozen autographs.When everything was over, Chen Moting heaved a sigh of relief in embarrassment, and smiled secretly.
"Do you feel like a star?"
Chen Moting picked up the water glass, and pressed down the food that had been choking on his chest from just now: "Don't embarrass me, Brother Sun."
Sun Jinghan smiled smugly: "Next Thursday, I will be shooting a magazine. In the past few days, I will focus on cleaning up your face. It's too rustic."
"It's called health."
Sun Jinghan took out a cigarette: "There is a big difference between health and village children. It can only be regarded as a miracle that Tucheng can be recognized like this."
Chen Moting covered his chest: "It's too hurtful."
"The acting skills are not in place."
Chen Moting adjusted his expression, covered it again: "It's too hurtful."
Sun Jinghan laughed: "Okay, I'm sorry."
"Give me a sip."
"There are people all around." Sun Jinghan pinched out his cigarette, "Before the transformation, you honestly became the top ten youths for me in public."
Chen Moting looked at his fingers twisting the cigarette: "Brother Sun is very handsome when he teaches people."
"so so."
Sun Jinghan has no brothers and sisters, and his parents are not qualified. He has no habit of getting close to others since he was a child, and no matter how good his relationship is with his peers at work, they will not take their compliments seriously.Only Chen Moting, I don't know if his acting skills are in place, or his private life is too intertwined, but Sun Jinghan listens to his flattery with peace of mind.
Chen Moting protested, but he still did enough skin remedial work, coupled with the skills of the on-site makeup artist, he has already got rid of the image of a village boy under the camera.
Sun Jinghan suspended his other work that day, and concentrated on staying with him in the studio, taking a few behind-the-scenes photos and uploading them on Weibo with Chen Moting's account.With no budget and no team, Chen Moting not only needs to build his personal image, but also saves some of his savings for emergencies, so he doesn't even want to hire an assistant—this is the kind of treatment for a person who is left out in the cold.
"Congratulations." The editor who was on the scene for this shoot was also present, and said in a low voice, "Finally found a treasure after being aggrieved for so many years."
Sun Jinghan looked at Chen Moting under the spotlight, he moved his hands and gestures well, and his expressiveness was good, it was almost impossible to tell that he was a novice: "Let's take a step and see."
"I have Chai Ke's gossip, do you want to hear it?"
Sun Jinghan was not interested in Chai Ke's matter, but the editor was very interested, obviously he shouldn't refuse: "Listen."
"I heard that he uttered nonsense at a private dinner and offended..."
Sun Jinghan made a gesture of listening, but still focused on Chen Moting.In the past six months, the praise of Chen Moting has been spread to his ears one after another - he can act, learn quickly, is sensible and considerate, hardworking and humble, and full of charm.Sun Jinghan has lived for more than 30 years, and there are only three times when he feels that God has treated him well. The first time is from a precarious artist assistant to a formal manager. The second time is when Chai Ke in his hand becomes a blockbuster. To Chen Moting, a good seed with potential and talent.
Fortunately, others don't have this vision, or they don't have to put all their eggs in one basket like Sun Jinghan.
"Are you going to write this gossip into a magazine?"
The editor snorted coldly: "How is that possible? I publish a high-end magazine, and I'm not a street gossip tabloid. I just want to make you happy in private."
Sun Jinghan smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble."
Many people know the truth that Chai Keen accused Sun Jinghan of sexual harassment.As a good friend of Sun Jinghan, the editor would step on firewood whenever he had the opportunity, but he didn't have enough authority to prevent the popular singer from appearing in the magazine every time, so he felt even more resentful than the person concerned.
"Actually, I don't have any feelings for Chai Ke. Brother Dong taught him those words. How dare he not say them." Sun Jinghan turned to comfort him, "It's a lost cause. Maybe one day I have to thank him for letting me meet Chen Moting."
"Stop talking about such bad things." The editor draped his shoulders and leaned into his ear, "Have you introduced any good men recently?"
Sun Jinghan covered his face and pushed away: "There are so many delivered to your door every day, isn't it enough for you to choose?"
"I'll tell you a secret." The editor raised his left hand and used his index finger and thumb to draw out the length. "Models are all like this. Once they take off their pants, I have to carry a gun in the end."
"Aren't you happy in the end?"
"The cool way before and after is different, otherwise you feel wronged, and I... eh?"
"I don't sleep with acquaintances, it's a matter of principle."
"Yes yes yes." The editor let him go, "Brother Sun never violated the principles."
Sun Jinghan looked at Chen Moting in a blink of an eye: "Principles are to be followed, and sooner or later you have to clean up the mess after eating grass."
Qin Hao is the best example. He was originally a straight male co-tenant who lived in peace, but because of a drunken sex, he slipped inch by inch into the quagmire of entanglement.To be fair, it wasn't Qin Hao's fault alone, and he was also to blame for not refusing.At that time, the two of them were too lonely and fought alone.
In the final analysis, self-inflicted crimes cannot live.
In a blink of an eye, the magazine's publication date came, and Sun Jinghan filed the finished products sent by the magazine, and bought two copies by himself on the side of the road.Xiao Zao was away for Chen Moting's acting class that day, so Sun Jinghan turned to the page with his interview and put it on the coffee table, and sent a message to Chen Moting to say he would be home later.
Chen Moting knew that he probably had a one-night stand, so he had dinner outside, and when he came home and saw the magazines on the coffee table, he thought to himself that before the one-night stand, he was still thinking about work, and his dedication was a bit weird.
He took a few steps closer, a smile froze on his face.
Addiction, even if you quit it temporarily, is just lurking in the corner waiting for a small stimulus.Chen Moting wanted to retreat, but picked up the magazine and walked into the bathroom by accident.
A few years ago, he started to have sensual urges towards Chen Shuwei, and every time he had sex, he forced to replace the person in his mind with Qiao Zheng, otherwise he would not be able to forgive himself for such nasty thoughts.After escaping into the showbiz, his desire gradually became pure, and he no longer thought of a specific person to masturbate, so he quit Chen Shuwei, at least that's what he suggested to himself.
Chen Moting sat on the toilet seat and stared at the magazine cover, took a dozen deep breaths, wiped his face, unbuttoned his pants and began to masturbate.
His avatar was congested and stiff, and the pixels of the portrait in his mind were extremely low. He wanted to turn into Chen Shuwei a few times, but he forced him back to Qiao Zheng.Chen Moting was hot-headed, dizzy and tinnitus, and his palms were full of sweat. He looked at Sun Jinghan who pushed the door and came in with a hideous look.
"...Sorry for you to continue."
The magazine fell to the floor, Chen Moting was stunned for another two seconds, stuffed his pants and rushed out of the bathroom.Sun Jinghan's figure flashed at the corner of the entrance, followed by the sound of the door opening and closing.
Chen Moting rushed to the door in three steps at a time, and almost bumped into Sun Jinghan who changed his mind and turned back as soon as he opened the door.
Sun Jinghan raised the corners of his mouth and faked a smile: "Have you had dinner yet?"
"……ate."
Sun Jinghan bypassed him and entered the room: "You should be tired after a day of class, take a shower and go to sleep."
Chen Moting's mind went blank, and he stood still: "I'm gay."
"I see."
"and then?"
Sun Jinghan took off his coat and hung it in the closet: "No, you are not the only actor who is gay, so there is no need to make a fuss."
"Those people don't live in your house."
"They are stars, how could they condescend to live in my house."
He bluntly avoided the topic, Chen Moting became furious, and laughed angrily: "I'm masturbating in front of a man's picture at your house, do you think it doesn't matter?"
"It doesn't matter." Sun Jinghan left the entrance, "Just don't bring the man home."
"How do you know that I haven't brought it?" Chen Moting's suppressed negative emotions all these years burst out, "Where else would I dare to sleep with someone except you?!"
Sun Jinghan wrinkled violently
