unknown rumors

"He ran straight from home?" Chen Yuanwen rubbed Xu Wei's arm with his hands, "Is it cold, you, you wear so little."

"I'm in a hurry," Xu Wei grabbed his hand, "I'm so mad, do you know that?"

He laughed happily, glanced lightly at Xu Wei, and said, "Look at your temper, that's all right, I'll take you home, you haven't been back for a long time, stay with your family for two more days and then come back."

"Well," Xu Wei untied the knot in his heart, and he also relaxed, leaning on the seat behind him, pinching his earlobe with his hands.

"Don't make trouble, let's drive." He refused, but he didn't knock off Xu Wei's hand, but let Xu Wei rub his thin earlobe red.

When they drove downstairs to Xu Wei's house, the two hugged each other and kissed for a long time, his tongue was almost numb from the kiss, so Xu Wei reluctantly let him go.

Xu Wei raised his hand to wipe the water stains on his lips, and asked him in a low voice, "Go up and sit down?"

He shook his head without hesitation, "Let's forget it."

He didn't want to go up to meet Xu Wei's parents, how embarrassing it was.

Xu Wei didn't annoy him either, and got out of the car after he kissed him on the side of the cheek.

"Call me if you have anything to do." He said to Xu Wei's back.

"Can't you fight if you have nothing to do?" Xu Wei turned his head and looked at him with a smile.

He also smiled at Xu Wei, "You can hit if you want, and I won't stop you."

"Understood," Xu Wei turned his back to him, and waved his hand at him, "Go back, drive slowly on the road, I will find you in two days."

"It's cool again, you little guy." He smiled and glanced at Xu Wei, closed the window and left.

On the way back, he was humming with the wind blowing all the way, and he was in a surprisingly good mood.

Now that Xu Wei's matter has been resolved, he has also taken care of the matter that his brother told him, and the company's prospects are even brighter. He really can't think of any reason to be unhappy.

In the car, he called the fitness trainer to make an appointment, went to the gym to practice all afternoon, and then he returned home sweating profusely.

He slept in bed until the next afternoon, and when he woke up, he felt refreshed.

Affected by Xu Wei, he seldom ordered those junk foods recently. When Xu Wei was around, Xu Wei made them for him. When Xu Wei was not around, he went to the kitchen and made a random vegetable salad by himself.

He brought the salad to the dining table and was about to sit down and eat slowly when his cell phone rang suddenly.

He walked to the sofa and picked up his mobile phone. It was Shen Wen who called.

After pressing the answer button, he returned to the dining table with his mobile phone and asked lazily, "What's the matter?"

"Mr. Chen," Shen Wen's voice was full of anxiety, "something happened."

The hand holding the knife and fork paused, his expression became serious, and he said, "What's the matter? Tell me slowly."

"Mr. Chen, it's Wei Shuliu. He was arrested for taking drugs, and now the entire Internet news has exploded," Shen Wen said, "Now open Weibo and see that there are seven or eight hot searches on him. The server just now Got crushed."

"Fuck!" He threw the knife and fork into the plate vigorously, and opened Weibo with a gloomy face.

Sure enough, as Shen Wen said, the words "Wei Shuliu was arrested for taking drugs" firmly occupied the number one spot on the hot search list, followed by the word "explosive" in red.

Clicking on the entry, there was a lot of cursing in it, fans were disfollowing, the cooperation brand was canceling the contract, the whole weibo was in chaos.

"I'm fucking fucked!"

He raised his hand and threw the dinner plate to the ground. With the crisp and piercing clatter, the pieces of porcelain rolled all over the ground.

"Mr. Chen..." Shen Wen comforted in a low voice, "Do you think we should contact some marketing accounts to clear his name and divert the attention of fans first?"

"Wash it up for nothing," he scolded violently, "it's okay to talk about other things. There is no need to wash things like drug use, and even the king of heaven and I can't wash it away."

He stood up and kicked the chair behind him to the side, "I really don't understand what kind of crap is in his pig's brain, he takes drugs, he has a bright future, he will be famous and rich in his twenties , What is wrong with him, he went to take drugs, fuck, what will he do with my movie?! I invested hundreds of millions in it, and now it's all in vain!"

This happened so suddenly, Shen Wen was also at a loss, so he had to listen to him get angry silently on the other end of the phone.

He walked to the French window of the balcony, lit a cigarette, and asked darkly, "What did the director say?"

"The director said that there are only two options now, either to reshoot all of Wei Shuliu's scenes, or to use AI to change his face. Either way, the cost is very high. He has stopped the post-production now and is waiting for our producer's instructions. .”

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with a sullen face, the anger in his eyes was getting hotter and hotter, and the cigarette in his hand was about to be crushed by him.

For Wei Shuliu's movie, he signed a VAM agreement with others, and invested several hundred million yuan in it. He must get the proceeds before November, so that he can explain to the investors.

Originally, this movie was scheduled to be released during the National Day, but now it’s September, and the movie has entered the fucking post-production stage. He spent millions of dollars just to buy popular searches for this movie. Now it’s good, the movie The male lead was exposed to taking drugs, and the whole movie had to suffer accordingly!

Whether it is re-shooting scenes or AI face-changing, it will require huge costs and a lot of time. It is impossible to release it during the National Day. What will he use to fill the shortfall of several hundred million? !

"Send Wei Shuliu a lawyer's letter, sue him directly, and ask him to pay me money," he threw the cigarette butt on the ground, crushed it with his feet, and shouted at Shen Wen: "Go now, sue that bastard, I can't spare him!"

"Okay," Shen Wen said, "I'll go now."

After hanging up Shen Wen's phone call, the anger in his chest was not extinguished at all. He has never been a kind-hearted person. When he signed the gambling agreement with others, he hoped that this movie could make a comeback. Double your net worth again.

He has always been bold in doing business, and he would not hesitate to make a move when he saw the right time. Even if it was an investment of several hundred million yuan, he didn't think about it for too long. He was confident in himself, and his vision was never wrong.

And the first few months after the establishment of the project did confirm his vision of candidates, but he never thought that Wei Shuliu was a waste of gold and jade, occupying so many good resources and earning so much money from fans , don't learn good things, but do things that violate the law and discipline, bastards who can't support the wall with mud, waste!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wished he could stab Wei Shuliu twice to relieve his anger.

With hundreds of millions of money and hundreds of millions of working capital, how can he get together in a short time? !

He gritted his teeth and lay down on the sofa, thinking of a solution, when the damn cell phone rang again.

He answered without even looking at it, and said in a bad tone: "What the hell is wrong?"

The other end of the phone was silent for a while, and after two or three seconds, Jiang Yingfeng's voice came over, "Yuanwen, it's me."

He closed his eyes irritably, pinched the center of his brows with his hands, "I'm not in the mood to treat you to dinner right now, can I talk about it later?"

"Yuanwen, you misunderstood, I saw the news, are you bothered about Wei Shuliu now? I have a solution here, are you free, let's come out and talk?"

His tone slowed down, "What can you do? The matter of taking drugs is a certainty. It's my bad luck."

"Don't worry." Jiang Yingfeng's voice was calm and gentle, comforting him gently, "You know Zhou Yuan, right?"

Zhou Yuan.

He thought about it, and he did have some impression of this person.

Zhou Yuan is a filmmaker, a film director.Although his profession is different from Chen Yuanwen's, but speaking of it, this Zhou Yuan is somewhat similar to Chen Yuanwen.

Chen Yuanwen invests in movies with a single style, and they are all brainless sweet pet dramas that are easy to make money. The same is true for Zhou Yuan. He has made seven or eight movies since his debut, and almost all of them have been called bad movies by film critics, without exception. Yes, the box office of each film is extremely high, and the box office and word of mouth show a huge polarization.

The reason is that Zhou Yuan is good at hype. In every one of his movies, the male and female protagonists are almost all popular little fresh meats. Whoever is popular will be hired. It doesn't matter whether the person has acting skills or not. As long as he has fans and traffic, he will Let them be the protagonists, and then use methods such as asking the male and female protagonists to fry CP, buy popular searches, etc. to increase the popularity of the topic and achieve the goal of high box office.

Therefore, although the outside world keeps scolding Zhou Yuan, there are still many investors who are willing to invest in him. Who would not want to make a sure profit deal?

Chen Yuanwen also had contact with Zhou Yuan once before, but at that time, Chen Yuanwen felt that the book was really boring, so he didn't invest money in it.

He didn't quite understand what Jiang Yingfeng meant by mentioning Zhou Yuan to him now.

"What does it matter to him?" he asked, his voice still low.

Jiang Yingfeng didn't reply him directly, but said: "Come out and chat, Yuanwen, I promise I won't let you go for nothing." "

He didn't think of any other way for the time being, he hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing to Jiang Yingfeng.

The two made an appointment to meet in a well-concealed hotel. Jiang Yingfeng made an appointment for a box in advance. When Chen Yuan heard it, Jiang Yingfeng had already made tea and was sitting on the seat waiting for Chen Yuanwen.

"Yuanwen, come and sit down."

Chen Yuanwen took off his coat and threw it aside, and sat down opposite Jiang Yingfeng with an indifferent expression.

He was in a bad mood, and he used to dress up carefully when he went out, but today he just put on a coat and went out, with Xu Wei's old T-shirt inside.

Jiang Yingfeng, on the other hand, should have been well dressed, her hair combed back meticulously, revealing her handsome features, and her clothes were carefully selected, a simple sky blue shirt, paired with milky white long sleeves. The trousers set off the temperament of the whole person very warmly.

"Have you eaten yet? Are you hungry? I'll order you something to eat first." Jiang Yingfeng looked at him with a smile.

"I'm not in the mood, don't play tricks, let's talk about Zhou Yuan." He leaned on the seat, pursing his lips, and the air pressure around him was very low.

"Okay," Jiang Yingfeng nodded, "Zhou Yuan is preparing a movie. I have collaborated with him on a variety show before. He may have heard that I have some friendship with you, so he found me and said he wanted to To cooperate with you, I inquired carefully, and the heroine of his movie has already been decided. She is a draft female idol. She is not very popular and cannot get any investment. She may have some unclear relationship with him. He wanted to support that person, so he planned to make a movie and let that person play the lead actress, that's why he wanted to invest in you."

After Jiang Yingfeng finished speaking, he snorted coldly and did not express his opinion.

Jiang Yingfeng went on to say: "He handed me the book, I looked at it, and it is indeed the type you like to vote for, but I saw that you have Wei Shuliu's movie before, I guess you also watched it I didn't tell you if I didn't go to him, but now that Wei Shu has leaked this kind of thing, I thought about it, and I still think it's better to tell you."

"A female lead who can't even get investment, who has no name or surname, why should I vote for him? How many millions can he earn me?" He sneered, "Actor Jiang, are you kidding me?"

Jiang Yingfeng moved her body forward, put her hand on the back of his hand, and said, "How can I tease you? Zhou Yuan said that as long as you are willing to invest, he is willing to sign a betting agreement with you to ensure your stability." Make money or lose money."

Hearing this, his eyes flickered slightly, and he first took his hand away from Jiang Yingfeng's, and then he calmed down and said, "That's what he said?"

"That's right," Jiang Yingfeng looked at his movements, his expression changed, but soon he smiled again, "He said that the movies he made have never been compensated, and he has his own way to make movies To be popular with male and female leading actors, as long as the investors are willing to listen to him and cooperate with him in the hype."

Chen Yuanwen carefully recalled the box office of Zhou Yuan's films, and Zhou Yuan did not boast.

The most important thing is that Zhou Yuan is willing to sign a betting agreement with himself. In this way, even if the box office of the film is not high, the risk is on Zhou Yuan, and Chen Yuanwen has directly grafted the risk to the past.

This is indeed the best news Chen Yuanwen heard today.

Chen Yuanwen's expression was finally no longer tense. He raised his hand and touched the center of his brow, and said to Jiang Yingfeng, "I don't have his contact information. If you have any, give me."

Jiang Yingfeng said: "No problem, I will push it to you later, but he still has a condition, I forgot to tell you just now."

"What conditions?"

"He has the female number one here, and he asked the investor to choose the male number one. He said that it doesn't matter whether he is famous or not. He can make him famous. The only requirement is that he should be good-looking and tall. He said that he should be tall. You have to be handsome and fry CP to make a spark.”

Of course it would be better for the male number one to come out from Chen Yuanwen, but Chen Yuanwen was just a little puzzled, "Why does he insist that the investor be the first male number? Wouldn't it be better for him to put another one of his own in?"

Jiang Yingfeng smiled and said: "You don't understand this. Speculating on CP is a risky thing. There are many things involved in the later stage. How to hype, how to untie, how to buy popular searches, these are all very particular. Yes, he must deepen the involvement of the male number one and the investors with his own interests, so that he will not be afraid of problems in the middle, in other words, everyone is in the same boat, so that the boat will not capsize."

"Oh, it's really serious." Chen Yuanwen had time to take a sip of tea at this moment.

"Actually, this is also an opportunity. Take a look at the movies he made before. Which one is not popular?" Jiang Yingfeng added some tea to Chen Yuanwen, "Many people want such an opportunity. Well, especially for those rookie actors, it is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Well," Chen Yuanwen nodded, "It is indeed an opportunity."

A sly smile appeared in Jiang Yingfeng's eyes, and he said, "Well, I'll push his WeChat to you right now."

"Okay." Chen Yuanwen took out his phone.

At this moment, a WeChat message suddenly popped up from Chen Yuanwen's mobile phone screen. Jiang Yingfeng glanced at it unintentionally, and saw Ye Wei's name.

Chen Yuanwen clicked on Ye Wei's WeChat, glanced at it, replied a few words casually, and quickly deleted it.

Jiang Yingfeng pushed Zhou Yuan's WeChat to Chen Yuanwen, and closed the phone.

"Mr. Chen, do I do you a big favor? Are you in the mood to have dinner with me now?"

A smile finally appeared on Chen Yuanwen's lips, "You really did me a big favor. I was planning to sell the house to pay off the debt, but today you can order whatever you want, and choose the expensive one."

After finishing speaking, Chen Yuanwen put away his joking tone, and looked at Jiang Yingfeng seriously, "I will remember this favor, you can come to me if you need anything in the future, and I will definitely repay you this favor."

"It's enough to have you," Jiang Yingfeng summoned the waiter, and said with a smile: "Then I'm really looking for something expensive."

"Order, order, I can't eat enough." Chen Yuanwen was also amused.

After eating a meal for nearly an hour, Jiang Yingfeng didn't take the initiative to talk about other topics other than work, which made Chen Yuanwen heave a sigh of relief.

After eating, Jiang Yingfeng and Chen Yuanwen walked out of the hotel lobby together. Chen Yuanwen came by car. Jiang Yingfeng did him such a big favor. Chen Yuanwen didn't just leave like before, and asked symbolically: " Did you drive? Do you want me to drive you?"

Jiang Yingfeng shook her head and said, "No need, I drove by myself, but I seem to have forgotten my car key in the box, I'll go back and get it, you go first, slow down on the road."

"Okay," Chen Yuanwen nodded, "Then I'll go first."

"okay."

After watching Chen Yuanwen go away, Jiang Yingfeng put away the smile on his face and turned back to the box just now.

There was already a person standing there waiting for him in the box, it was the waiter who served them just now.

"Send me." He took out his mobile phone and said to the waiter.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang." The waiter lowered his head and sent a photo to Jiang Yingfeng's phone.

Jiang Yingfeng took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to the waiter, "Go."

The waiter took the envelope and turned and walked out of the room.

Jiang Yingfeng saved the photo, and found Xu Wei's WeChat in the contacts.

The two of them added WeChat when they were on the set of "Shen Fog", and they didn't say a word after adding it.

Opening Xu Wei's chat box, Jiang Yingfeng looked at the photo quietly.

The photo was taken secretly when the waiter came in to deliver the food. The picture is not very clear, but the faces of him and Chen Yuanwen can still be distinguished. In the picture, he and Chen Yuanwen have no intimate behavior, just sitting on both sides of the table, Eat and talk while laughing.

But these are enough.

After pressing the send button, after the photo was sent, he sent another sentence.

He said, "Come out and talk."
