Shadow for the Emperor

For the next year or so, everything seemed to go smoothly.

Xiao Zhe had an endless amount of films. Wen Sheng considered that he still had to deal with a company, so the films he received were not intensive, but the quality was quite high.

All in all, the two are no longer worried about their popularity, but what they worry about is how to date secretly.

Now that the date is mentioned, I have to say that the relationship between the two is not what Xiao Zhe was worried about at the beginning. Maybe it is because of the freshness of hiding from the paparazzi, or maybe it is because the relationship between the two is solid, so the relationship Always good.

As time went by, Xiao Zhe felt relieved, thinking that he might really be able to walk with this person forever, at least if he walked together for ten years, he wouldn't run away.

But one thing is certain, within ten years, Wen Sheng will definitely become the best actor.

Or the time frame should be narrowed down a bit, this year, he will become the Best Actor.

The nominated film was the film he and Miao Manman worked together at the beginning. When Miao Manman left, everyone was saying bad things in their hearts. Since the last little scenes were left in the filming, it would obviously cost a lot to reshoot it with a different heroine, but if they didn’t make it, How to change this ending, how to make it better, is another question.

Later, Wen Sheng went to find an investor, and I don't know how he discussed it. The other party agreed to convert this commercial film into a semi-literary film.

At the end, the part of the heroine was missing, so three or four actresses with very different looks were recruited to join. Each of them has more or less the characteristics of the one who left the woman at the beginning, plus the related monologue of the hero, with a special method to edit this part.

This kind of movie, if it is made well, it is art, but if it is not made well, it is mud.

It simply became art.

The movie became the best film, the director became the best director, the hero became the best actor, the heroine became the queen, and even the supporting role was nominated for the best supporting actor. Although the supporting actor award was taken away by Yang Jun, this is not a movie. Undoubtedly a great success.

Wen Sheng said that after winning Best Actor this time, he has reached the pinnacle of this field, and slowly he will start to transition to behind-the-scenes and seriously manage the company.

Xiao Zhe quite agrees. As Wen Sheng's fame grows, he takes on more and more roles, not to mention that the group grows bigger and handles more and more things.

Sometimes he suspects that the other party is a superman, so that he can keep teasing himself while dealing with so many things.

But after a year, he did look a bit haggard.

Xiao Zhe wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't persuade him all the time. Now that he has finally achieved half of his ambition, he can feel more at ease when he transforms in the future.

After all, he still wants to spend countless more ten years with Wen Sheng, and he doesn't want him to be defeated in front of the laws of nature.

But the awards ceremony that day, Xiao Zhe thought about it later, felt that it was a reincarnation.

Everything was the same, where he sat, the people beside him, the layout of the podium, Wen Sheng's speech, everything seemed to go back to the way his man won the Best Supporting Actor award a year ago.

The difference is that a year ago he was just a supporting role, stepping down with high spirits.

A year later, he became the film king, but when he stepped off the stage, he stumbled, fell to the ground, and fell into a coma on the spot.

This was the first time Xiao Zhe saw the other party in such a mess.

Wen Sheng, who was sent to the hospital, woke up quickly. The doctor gave him a diagnosis of overwork and asked him to rest more, but he couldn't give him anything specific. At most, he was asked to stay in the hospital for observation for a day .

Friends in this city will stop by to visit and express condolences.

Xiao Zhe is also one of them.

The difference is that most of the others are polite, just sit and go, or sincerely, but busy, just sit and go.

No matter how busy Xiao Zhe was, he still wanted to watch over him until he was discharged from the hospital.

But he can't.

The higher you stand, the more careful you have to be.Because there are more and more eyes watching them, with one careless move, the huge soap bubbles under the feet may be poked and burst, and then with a bang, the person falls from a high altitude, smashing to pieces.

"How did you fall down so well? You fell when you fell, did you hit your head or something, and you suddenly fell into a coma?"

"The doctor said it was overworked."

"Yeah, I think you're really overdoing it, no matter what it is." Xiao Zhe pointed out something, and received a supercilious stare without any surprise, but he has already achieved success in cultivation, so he is not afraid of a small supercilious stare. On the contrary, I couldn't help worrying, "I've been dreaming these two nights."

"Dream about what I look like today?"

"...I'm not a prophet." Xiao Zhe paused, "But it's almost the same. I dreamed about a year ago when we were getting takeaway at home."

"It's a strange memory."

"At that time you were doing well, but suddenly you knelt down on one knee, did you forget?"

"It seems that what happened today is enough for you to remember for ten years."

"I'm not that bad. I think it's strange for you to be embarrassed once in a while, but if you are too embarrassed and sent to the hospital... don't you think I'm so heartless?" Xiao Zhe clenched his fists, "I'm just panicking for no reason."

"Since there is no reason, then there is no need to think about it." Wen Sheng replied, his eyes suddenly turned outward.

Another colleague came to offer condolences.

Xiao Zhe also knows this actor, isn't it just Wen Jing who sat next to him twice, she and Wen Sheng collaborated in a play a while ago, and now it's natural to come to visit him.

Since someone came, he couldn't stay any longer, so he could only get up and say, "Wait for you to be discharged from the hospital."

"Ah."

Xiao Zhe left, Wen Jing sat down where he was just now, and slowly took off the earphones, "Have you figured it out yet?"

Wen Sheng's eyes traced the path of Xiao Zhe's departure until he was completely invisible, and then he uttered the syllable, "I won't go back."

"Although this is your own choice, I still have to ask procedurally." Wen Jing took out a notebook from her small bag, "If you go back now, you can go back to the time when you traveled, and That is to say, the country you worked so hard to conquer will not change in any way, and you are still its emperor. But if you don’t go back, the world’s repulsion against you will increase day by day, which will cause you to gradually lose the ability to act, five senses, Even life. Are you sure?"

"determine."

Wen Jing has been doing this for many years, and this is the first time she has seen someone who answered so simply.

In fact, just a year ago, she had approached him, asked exactly the same questions, and got exactly the same answers, but because of procedures, in order to prevent these people from being impulsive, she gave him a year to think about it.

Now a year later, he answered the same as before, even the expression on his face was the same - the same determination.

But for this person, the contrast between the two endings caused by the two choices is the most stark.

What's more, this is a man, a creature whose reason is often greater than emotion in everyone's opinion.

The pen that was supposed to write in the notebook paused, and she couldn't help but ask, "Is it worth it?"

Although he has never worked with Xiao Zhe, this person is not difficult to understand. He has an average personality and wrist skills. Acting skills are his only characteristic. However, seeing Wen Sheng like this, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who especially appreciates acting skills.So is it worth giving up a country for one person?

Wen Sheng scratched the place where he used to wear the ring with his nails, and the ring marks had long since disappeared, as if he had never worn this ring before.

Wen Jing waited patiently for his answer, but after waiting for a long time, she only got one sentence, "What does it have to do with you?"

She froze for a moment, then plugged in the earphones again. Indeed, she was only responsible for confirming the wishes of these people. As for whether they thought it was worth it or whether they would regret it in the future, it had nothing to do with her.

"This is your last chance, as long as you are sure."

She left the ward and was stopped by a white car in the garage.

The window of the car that was about to come down caused the smoke inside to drift out, Wen Jing stood a little to the side, with a look of surprise on her face, she didn't expect Xiao Zhe to be waiting here all this time.

"What's the matter with him?"

Wen Jing shook her head, "I'm not a doctor."

"The doctor couldn't find out the cause." Xiao Zhe was extremely irritable, and took out the last cigarette in the cigarette case, "Do you mind?"

She shook her head again.

He lit it and took a deep breath, as if it was a sedative, "How did Sister Manman fall? They said she fell from one floor to the next in the stairwell. Later I asked a doctor My friend, he said that her spine was not actually injured, and the paralysis is difficult to explain medically."

Wen Jing took off one earplug and listened quietly.

"He fell down today. He didn't actually stumble. He fell ill suddenly, right?" A cigarette was consumed extremely quickly, and Xiao Zhe wanted to smoke another one, but there was no stock left, so his tone became impatient, " Does he have the same problem as Sister Manman? I thought about it, and the biggest thing they have in common is that they come from ancient times."

Wen Jing suddenly felt that Xiao Zhe was much smarter than she imagined, "How did you know you found me?"

"I checked, you appeared frequently in Sister Manman's life one year before her death, and during this year, your appearance rate was quite high. What's more, when I went back to the ward just now, I saw you holding A notebook is keeping things in mind. How many visiting friends will take notes there? It’s not a doctor.”

"You are very smart."

"I have to be smart in this matter." Xiao Zhe didn't want to get entangled in the question of whether he was smart or not, "What's going on? Can he still recover?"
