Eat this toad [Entertainment]

In the encirclement circle formed by countless microphones, Su Jinjiang kept smiling as before when facing the media.But it is not difficult to find that there is a bit of anxiety that cannot be concealed in his expression.

Before the reporters started asking questions, Su Jinjiang waved his hand, "Please allow me to say a few words first."

The reporters fell silent.

In the impression of most media, Su Jinjiang is not a proactive person.He seems to always be used to cooperating with other people's questions step by step, and sometimes skillfully avoids some traps, but he almost never acts as a guide.

It seemed to be the first time that he directly took the initiative as soon as he came up like this.

"Some things happened in my family today, maybe everyone already knows about it." Su Jinjiang sighed, "Maybe everyone wants to know more about the specific situation out of concern for me, I can understand. But this kind of housework , it is difficult for me to speak clearly, and it is not convenient for me to express my opinion publicly on such an occasion. Every family has difficult scriptures, and mine is no exception. I don’t want my family to increase their troubles because of me, so I hope everyone will not Let’s raise this issue again. Let’s focus on today’s topic and talk about film works. Thank you for your understanding, thank you.”

He stood up and bowed slightly to the many reporters around him.

Su Jinjiang's relationship with the media has always been good, especially among the traffic niches who have become popular in the past two or three years, he is the most unassuming.Most of the reporters present didn't mind giving him face, not to mention that his words had already reached this point, and it would seem a little unreasonable if he persisted in asking questions.

Among the group interview reporters, there were also several people who had been arranged by Xinxing Culture in advance. Seeing this situation, they immediately took the opportunity to take over the topic and asked some questions about the movie first.

With this beginning, the focus of other people's attention is naturally gathered on the film, and they start to ask questions one after another.In this way, even if someone is still interested in Su Jinjiang's private topics, they will not be able to intervene.

The other reporters were fine, only the two people arranged by Fei Changhuai were secretly worried.The benefits that Fei Changhuai gave were not for nothing, if they didn't say a word that should be said, it would be difficult for them to explain.

At this time, a reporter asked: "Compared with your previous works, what do you think is the biggest challenge of this film?"

Su Jinjiang thought for a while, "I think it's about the character. Part of this character's personality fits very well with me, but the type of this film is something I have never been exposed to. The way of acting will definitely be different. It's a lot different than before. So for me, it's kind of a breakthrough."

So far, Su Jinjiang has never performed a typical character in a typical environment, and has always lacked an irreplaceable character image that can be integrated with himself and is irreplaceable in the audience's memory.

Among the critics, there are not a few people who recognize Su Jinjiang's acting skills, but almost no one really regards him as an acting school. This is a large part of the reason.

This is not a problem with the work, nor is it a problem with Su Jinjiang himself, but that he has not waited for the role that allows him to enter his inner world.

The reporter arranged by Fei Changhuai heard the word "self-breakthrough", and felt that he had found a breakthrough in an instant, so he quickly seized the opportunity to interject: "Does self-breakthrough mean that the image you have been shaping before will be subverted?" ?”

He blurred the concept in the second half of the sentence, and did not clearly say whether he was referring to the screen image or the public image.If Su Jinjiang answered in the affirmative, he planned to seize this point and dig deeper, secretly diverting the topic, trying to bring Su Jinjiang into the pit within a few questions.

This method of digging a hole was very blunt, but he just took the opportunity to show Fei Changhuai that he really worked hard to complete the mission.

Off the court, Wan Jin scolded that reporter more than 800 times in one second.Isn't this "inducing a confession"?

Su Jinjiang glanced in the direction of the reporter.

The reporters had a premonition that there would probably be an explosive point ahead, and they all clenched their microphones and waited with bated breath.Some people guess that Su Jinjiang may ask, what exactly does "the image that has been shaped before" refer to.According to Su Jinjiang's character, he should not be serious with the other party on the spot, but today's situation is special, maybe Su Jinjiang can't hold back his temper.

Unexpectedly, Su Jinjiang's next answer was very light: "I do have a lot of costume dramas, but I think it's normal for actors to try different ways of acting. Even if they play a new type of role this time, they won't How does it affect previous roles?"

This kind of answer, which was close to being silly, made the reporter who asked the question feel uncomfortable for a while.The concept he put forward is inherently vague. There is nothing wrong with Su Jinjiang's narrow definition of the word "image" as a role in a costume drama.

The reporters on Xin Xing's side immediately asked questions again, and quickly rescued the scene.Until the end, the two reporters arranged by Fei Changhuai did not find a chance to speak again, so they had to leave in a huff.

Back in the lounge, Wan Jin heaved a sigh of relief.The press conference was a success, Su Jinjiang's performance was flawless, and Wei Tan's presence also achieved the expected results.

Although Wei Tan didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but he accompanied Su Jinjiang to attend the event is the best statement.

When Su Jinjiang was interviewed by the group, Wan Jin noticed that there were many media cameras in the front row capturing Wei Tan's expression.Wei Tan was still the same as usual, without much expression on his face, but his eyes on Su Jinjiang were full of love, and he didn't hide it at all.

Wan Jin originally thought that when he left the stage, some media might come to interview Wei Tan and ask him his views on Su Jinjiang's family problems.For this reason, Wan Jin also specially instructed the security personnel on the scene, asking them to protect Wei Tan and leave the scene first.As a result, this did not happen, and Wei Tan escaped without a hitch.It is probably because Wei Tan's reaction throughout the whole process has been seen by the media. Everyone knows his attitude at a glance, and the interview does not make much sense.

The current hurdle has been passed, and then it is time to call the company's public relations team to issue a draft.

Su Jinjiang and Wei Tan also returned to this lounge. Su Jinjiang sat on the sofa without saying a word, checking the news on his mobile phone.

Under the hot topic of "Su Jinjiang's family dispute", there have been a lot of comments.Some people think that Su Jinjiang should completely break with the Forced Family, and never be controlled by them again.Some people think that Su Jinjiang and his stepmother Pan Yulan are actually using each other, and he cannot unilaterally get rid of each other.Some people also questioned that the film propaganda department was using Su Jinjiang's private life to make hype. It won't be long before a public relations team will jump out and say that this is all a misunderstanding.

The report of the media interviewing Pan Yulan two years ago was also rediscovered, and online Sherlock Holmes conducted various analyses.From an outsider's point of view, each has its own truth.From the point of view of the parties involved, it is basically nonsense.

Su Jinjiang looked at it casually for a while, then put down the phone.

Wan Jin asked with an expression: "?"

"Let's follow the company's public relations process." Su Jinjiang said, "I don't think there is any need to do anything special. It's not good to make people mobilize teachers. The foothold should be based on the shortcomings of the parents, entertaining and satisfying appropriately. Everyone's desire to gossip."

Wan Jin didn't speak.

Su Jinjiang's plan is indeed Wan Jin's idea.The matter of Su Jinjiang's family is not a matter of principle, but in the era of entertainment, all things that are not matters of principle follow a law: if you are serious, you will lose.If you take it too seriously, the effect may be counterproductive.

When many artists encounter revelations that are not serious in nature, they will choose to be the first to speculate or even blackmail themselves.When a potentially explosive event becomes a public joke for all to laugh at, it loses its punch and can no longer be used as a weapon.

The truth is this, but Wan Jin was somewhat surprised when Su Jinjiang himself said such a thing.

In Wan Jin's feeling, Su Jinjiang's first choice would definitely be to calm things down, appease the relatives of Pan's family, and strive to make things trivial.Su Jinjiang may not care about his relationship with the Pan family, but he does care about how fans think of him.To hype up his own family affairs has exceeded the bottom line that Su Jinjiang could accept in the past.

"Is this okay?" Wan Jin couldn't help asking.

"Do we have any other way?" Su Jinjiang raised his chin at the phone, "How things will end today, I have already guessed everything on the Internet. No matter what we do next, it is within their expectations Medium. Since this is the case, why not go in the direction they expected. If you lose all your face, you won’t be afraid of losing face in the future.”

Wan Jin nodded, but had nothing to say for a while.

"There is one more thing." Su Jinjiang said again, "What the reporter said today, I think it is a problem. My image now is not the same as before. It may not be good to follow the previous route."

"What?" Wan Jin was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized, "You mean, you want to reposition your character design?"

In Yaofeng's era, ever since Su Jinjiang became popular with the role of "Jinjiang Immortal", the company has always asked him to follow this route, presenting himself as a gentle gentleman with a classical temperament.

After arriving at Xin Xing's side, Wan Jin also thought about taking this opportunity to make Su Jinjiang change his personality and repackage him.However, Xin Xing's business department was hesitant about Wan Jin's proposal and did not make a final conclusion.

Wan Jin could understand the company's hesitation.Su Jinjiang's classic gentleman persona is perfectly combined with his personal temperament. It can be said to be unique among the current popular niche, and it can completely become Su Jinjiang's personal brand.

But the shortcomings of this kind of personality are also obvious.A gentle gentleman, as gentle as jade.Such an image can naturally attract fans for a long time, but the price is that all flaws must be covered up.Because it is perfect, it is fragile.

The Fund Gate incident is a huge lesson.If Su Jinjiang's character design is Ding Ziyan's type who is outspoken and not afraid of being blackmailed, the impact on his personal image will be much smaller, and it will not be difficult to deal with the plummet.

Su Jinjiang's comeback has become popular this time, and many people have the same question in their hearts: Can he still rebuild the past character design?If it is rebuilt, how long can it last this time?

Today's reporter's question actually hides such intentions.

Wan Jin couldn't understand Su Jinjiang's real worry.His character can't stand the second collapse, because he doesn't have enough time to rebuild.From now to his birthday next year, he only has more than half a year to work hard to expand his chances of winning.He didn't have many chips in the first place, so he couldn't bear greater risks.Although there are risks in changing the character design, it is always safer than the collapse of the character design.

Wan Jin thought about it, "It's certain to repackage your image, but it's not the time yet. Since you joined the group, you haven't been exposed or promoted for more than half a year, and you can't package it if you want to. Wait for your film to come out. , the company combined with the works to do a wave of promotional planning, and it justified its transformation.”

"I know." Su Jinjiang said, "The official transformation must wait until the work is released, but I want to start laying the groundwork from now on."

Regarding his future image positioning, Su Jinjiang already had a rough plan in mind.The less external packaging, the closer to the real self, the better.

Because only the most authentic things can withstand repeated tempering and subversion.

Under the operation of Xinxing's public relations team, the news of the Su family's fight began to gradually develop in the direction of entertaining the public.Not only did it appear on the front pages of some gossip websites in various popular forms, but it was also broadcast by the host in a relaxed and funny entertainment news program.

But all these jokes were not meant to embarrass Su Jinjiang.At the end of every report, the same argument will be thrown out: it is difficult for an honest official to decide on housework, and public figures are human beings and not gods.A family is supposed to help each other and share difficulties and risks. If you have any problems, you can sit down and talk about them. Why do you have to add trouble to each other and make it difficult for each other?

After this publicity, the Su family's fight incident became the same trivial matter as quarrels in ordinary people, just a little condiment in daily life.

With such a tone set, those arguments that questioned Su Jinjiang's hypocrisy based on his family problems were subtly tinged with conspiracy theories.The general opinion of the public is: Who can have nothing to do at home, so it is said to be hypocritical, and some people should be black for black's sake.

On the Su family's side, Pan Yulan's response was also very timely.She soon accepted an interview and revealed that the cause of the farce was Su Jinxi's studies.

In this way, not only did family disputes further narrow down to the educational problems of rebellious teenagers, but also Su Jinjiang completely disregarded the relationship.

Su Jinjiang himself never expressed any opinion on this matter and kept a decent silence.

When this incident first hit the news, Pan Yulan's relatives guessed that in order to maintain their public image, Su Jinjiang and Pan Yulan could only smash their teeth and swallow their blood, and they must soften their bodies to beg them for reconciliation.

The result was far beyond their expectations.No matter how the trend of public opinion develops, it is more unfavorable to them. Pan Yulan also keeps hinting to them that she is very familiar with the media and has the right to speak. How about we go on the news a few more times to see who is more embarrassing in the end.

After Pan Yulan sang the bad face, Su Jinjiang came forward and sang the red face again. In Pan Yulan's name, he invited these relatives to have a meal at the most high-end hotel in the area, which also saved Pan Yulan a little face.

As for Su Jinxi himself, let alone.He has been overprotected since he was a child, and he only dares to walk sideways in his own safe zone, and he will be cowarded as soon as he leaves the safe zone.Besides, the incident this time was indeed caused by him, and he was not wronged if he was blamed.Therefore, he only muttered a few words in front of Pan Yulan, and kept silent to the outside world.

After a few more days, the heat of public opinion gradually subsided, and the turmoil finally subsided.

The day before Su Jinjiang joined the crew, Wan Jin came to look for him again.This time, it brought news about He Xu.

Wan Jin found the agent Su Jinxi had met, and dug along this line. After a lot of trouble, he finally found He Haoxu.

This result was both within Wan Jin's expectations and beyond his expectations.

Many people suspected that He Ruo had a well-hidden backer, but no one had found anything.In any case, he was still his backer, and he was very cautious in doing things, not revealing any traces.It wasn't until this time that Wan Jin finally found a small detail, and found the traces of Fei Changhuai's threading in the middle.Open a hole, and more things underneath are exposed.

"He Ruxu has done quite a few things for Fei Changhuai, and he hasn't left anything behind." Wan Jin casually said a series of things, "Fei Changhuai, who entrusted all the dirty things to others, Pretend that my hands are clean. I said this is strange, how can such a person, how could he really work for Fei Changhuai, how could Fei Changhuai really trust him. Probably because of this relationship, They have each other's handles in each other's hands, so they can't split up."

Wan Jin's mouth was dry as he spoke, and he picked up his teacup to moisten his throat.

Su Jinjiang asked: "What is our plan for him?"

"There is no need to move your hand to move him." Wan Jin said, "Once Fei Changhuai is finished, he will be finished too. You still don't know what kind of person Fei Changhuai is? How could he be bitten out? It's impossible for his backer to protect him."

Su Jinjiang thought for a while, "I think, when the time is right, we might be able to use him. He may not be willing to go down with Fei Changhuai himself. This time, maybe he deliberately left an opening for him. Us, sell us a good deal. Otherwise, he can do it more covertly as before."

In such a way, there are many ways to provoke Su Jinxi.Getting close to Su Jinxi through a broker is really not the first choice. Su Jinxi must tell his family, and Su Jinjiang can easily get news.

In fact, things did develop like this.If it wasn't for Su Jinjiang and Wan Jin who got the news immediately and made some countermeasures in time, the incident this time would definitely be bigger and uglier.

He Ruxu doing this is probably trying to leave a way out for himself and send a signal of goodwill to Xin Xing, but it is not easy to make it too obvious.When it was impossible for Fei Changhuai to get up again, Xin Xing only had to hand out a branch, and He Ruxu would grab it, because he had no other choice.

Wan Jin sighed, "To be honest, I have always felt that He Ruxu is very pitiful. I heard that his family's conditions are not good, and his life was very difficult in the past. But he chose the road by himself. When he got to where he is today, he has only He can take care of himself."

Su Jinjiang was silent for a while, "When I have a chance, I want to talk to him."

Wan Jin looked at him, "I remember when you two first joined the company, it seemed that you had a good relationship for a while."

"Yes." Su Jinjiang nodded, "At that time, he was the only friend I had."

Thinking back then, and now, Su Jinjiang couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.Perhaps some changes are contained in the beginning, just like a story, all subsequent developments and final endings are first revealed at the beginning.

They talked about some more things, and seeing that it was getting late, Wan Jin rejected Su Jinjiang's invitation to stay with him for dinner, and ran away in a hurry.He is not an ignorant person, this time Su Jinjiang joined the group, and he has not seen Wei Tan for several months, the two of them will definitely live together tonight, Wan Jin does not want to be a light bulb here.

After seeing off Wan Jin, Su Jinjiang returned to the restaurant, poured red wine, and served the dishes on the table.He cooked all these dishes today, not too many, but enough to express his heart.

He wants to do one thing today.

It's not that he didn't think of doing it until today, but it wasn't until today that he felt that he was almost ready.

The two ate peacefully for a while as usual, Su Jinjiang was thinking about how to speak, when Wei Tan suddenly put down his chopsticks.

"What?" Su Jinjiang looked at him, "Is this enough?"

"No." Wei Tan took a sip of red wine, and slowly wiped his mouth with a napkin, "On December 12 of the year before last, each of us wrote a wish, put it in a bottle, and haven't opened it yet. Do you remember? "

"That goes without saying, I must remember." Su Jinjiang didn't know why Wei Tan mentioned this suddenly.

Of course he remembered the wishing bottle.It was the first time the two of them spent New Year's Eve together, and during dinner, Su Jinjiang suggested that each of them make a wish, fold it into a lucky star and put it in a bottle for preservation.

Originally, the two made an appointment to open it together on New Year's Eve next year to see each other's wishes.If anyone's wish is not fulfilled, it means that this year is not hard enough, and you have to punish yourself with a glass of wine.

Unfortunately, during the Chinese New Year of the second year, Wei Tan went out to film a movie, and this small agreement was temporarily put on hold.

"Do you want to watch it now?" Su Jinjiang asked.Although today is not New Year's Eve, the atmosphere is very similar to the time when I made my wish, so there is nothing wrong with treating it as New Year's Day.

"Well, let's watch it now." Wei Tan said, "Where did you put it?"

"I'll get it." Su Jinjiang ran away for a while, and then came back quickly, holding the small jar in his hand.

"Which one to look at first?" Su Jinjiang shook the jar, looking through the glass at the two little lucky stars inside, "I remember the smaller one should be yours."

"Look at yours first." Wei Tan said.

Su Jinjiang took out his own star and opened it carefully.

It said on the paper: [I hope my baby sandalwood will like me more next year. 】

On the back is a cartoon villain with magical expressions and movements.

Wei Tan smiled, and put the note back into the glass jar, "Has your wish come true?"

"Wait for me to ask." Su Jinjiang kissed his face, "My baby sandalwood, has my wish come true?"

"What do you think?" Wei Tan looked at him.

"I think it should be realized." Su Jinjiang said.

Wei Tan leaned towards him and answered the question with a long and deep kiss.

"It's up to you." Su Jinjiang scratched the tip of Wei Tan's nose, "Do you remember what we made an appointment at that time? Whoever's wish is not fulfilled, he will punish himself with a glass of wine."

Wei Tan pursed his lips and handed the lucky star to Su Jinjiang, "Then you open it. Come and tell me whether my wish has come true."

Su Jinjiang opened it, and it read: 【Hope this time next year, we will get married. 】

On the back there are two hearts connected hand in hand, with identical smiling faces.

Su Jinjiang was stunned.

He immediately understood why Wei Tan suddenly asked to see the wish at this time, because Wei Tan felt what Su Jinjiang wanted to do today.

A scene from a certain morning suddenly appeared before Su Jinjiang's eyes.That day, Wei Tan picked out the coriander in the bowl for him and said, I will agree to your marriage proposal in advance, because I am very good at calculating the amount in advance.

This is really... not bad at all.

Across the table, Wei Tan had a calm face, but his eyes were secretly asking: Am I right?

Su Jinjiang wanted to tease him habitually, but when he met the other's eyes, his heart softened and he lost his strength.

"Wait for me." Su Jinjiang ran into the bedroom, took out a box from his bedside table, and ran back.

"It took me a long time to choose this style." Su Jinjiang opened the box, revealing a pair of shiny metal rings inside, "Look, do you like it?"

Su Jinjiang slowly pushed the box towards Wei Tan.He had rehearsed this action in his imagination and thought it should be extremely romantic.As a result, when I actually did it, I felt that my actions did not look like giving a ring to propose marriage, but like passing a note secretly to the front seat during an exam.

Wei Tan picked up the ring box and looked at it, frowning slightly.

Seven out "..." Su Jinjiang's heart tightened.This time, it feels like the note is not passed to the front seat, but passed directly to the invigilator.

"Not good-looking?" Su Jinjiang asked tentatively.

Wei Tan didn't speak, but also took out a box and handed it over.

"Damn!" Su Jinjiang was depressed when he saw it, "You bought the same one too?" Then there is a woolen surprise!

After thinking about it, I felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the reaction of the two of them. When ordinary people encounter such a tacit understanding, shouldn't it be surprise × 2 romance × 2?

Wei Tan carefully compared the two pairs of rings again, and nodded: "It is indeed the same."

Only then did Su Jinjiang realize the bigger mistake, "No, wait a moment. Why didn't you express your surprise and touch at all?"

"Do I need surprises?" Wei Tan looked at him, "Surprises are needed for unexpected things. It is not unexpected that you will propose, and I have already agreed in advance."

Su Jinjiang thought about it, and it seemed to make sense, "Then you can always be moved, right?"

"Don't dare to move." Wei Tan smiled, "I have you on my head, I dare not move at all."

"Hold me on the head?" Su Jinjiang immediately understood what Wei Tan meant, as the saying goes, if you put it on your head, you might be hit, and if you hold it in your mouth, you might melt.

Su Jinjiang was immediately flattered by the earthy love words, and wanted to take advantage of it, "Why didn't you include it in your mouth?"

Wei Tan warned him with his eyes: I advise you to lose face.

Su Jinjiang also considered that today is not a good day to be shameless, so he quickly sat up straight and stretched out his hand to Wei Tan, "Give me your hand, and I will put it on for you."

The pair of rings that Su Jinjiang bought were worn on their ring fingers.

For the pair that Wei Tan bought, Su Jinjiang planned to find a nice chain to hang up and wear around his neck.When encountering occasions where rings are not suitable, such as filming, wear a necklace with a ring pendant.

"At such a memorable moment, let's take a photo." Su Jinjiang cleaned up a clean place on the dining table, spread out the two small wishing notes written by Wei Tan and himself, and put them on the table as the background plate.

"Do you want to compare your heart?" Wei Tan asked.

"I don't care, here's something a little more special." Su Jinjiang grabbed Wei Tan's hand and fiddled with it for a while, and quickly made a shape for the two hands: Wei Tan's index finger is in front, and Su Jinjiang's index finger At the back, slightly staggered, Su Jinjiang's thumb and middle finger circled from behind, hugging Wei Tan's index finger.

Both have small smiley faces drawn on their fingertips, and the gesture looks as if one is hugging the other from behind.

However, the photo was taken from the front of the hand. Because the fingers cover each other, the rings on the ring fingers of the two cannot be seen.

Wei Tan took the other pair of rings and the box, and put them aside.The phone lens focused on the fingers, and the pair of rings blurred into a blurred background, which looked quite special.

"Look, our hands don't look like the shape of the bow in "Titanic"?" Su Jinjiang adjusted the angle of the phone camera, "I can also use a piece of paper to make two arms for your index finger, that way It's more like that."

"The ship sank." Wei Tan reminded him.

"Oh oh oh." Su Jinjiang changed his words hastily, "Then change to something else." After thinking for a few seconds, he couldn't think of any other similar looks, "We don't resemble anyone, just like ourselves."

"Yeah." Wei Tan's index finger turned around, and the little smiling face on the pad of the finger stuck to Su Jinjiang's pad, "Boer one."

Su Jinjiang took these two finger figurines who were shamelessly kissing in public into the camera, and added a pink heart-shaped border.The border just covered the other words on the wishing note, leaving only the sentence "We will get married".Su Jinjiang added another decoration to block the word "会" in the middle, and it became "We get married".

"Neng, does it look good?" Su Jinjiang asked Wei Tan to look at the phone screen, "When we have a wedding, this photo must be placed in the projector."

"Pass it to me." Wei Tan picked up his mobile phone.

"No." Su Jinjiang took the phone away, "Just a real Bo'er."

Before the words finished, Wei Tan's lips pressed against him, and it was another long kiss.

Su Jinjiang felt sweet and melancholy in his heart.As soon as we leave tomorrow, we will be separated from each other for several months. The crew of "Infinite Game" has a strict confidentiality system, and Wei Tan himself is very busy, so he can no longer visit the set frequently.

"It's okay, in fact, a few months will pass quickly." Wei Tan saw his melancholy, and comforted him softly.

"Yeah." Su Jinjiang closed his eyes and leaned against him, "Hold me for a while, let me recharge."
