For the sake of my life, I might even be able to dominate the entertainment industry

"When you really remember to invite me."

The wrap-up banquet lasted until midnight, and Yan Shutong returned to the hotel with the smell of hot pot all over his body.After filming an action scene for a day, and making a fuss all night, Yan Shutong was in a daze when he finally took a shower, and fell asleep as soon as he hit the pillow on the bed.

While he was asleep, he didn't realize that the system released a new task for him after it was finished.

[Intermediate task: Win the newcomer award of domestic TV series and movie awards, and if you succeed, you can get the reward special skill "Drawing from the Bottom". If you fail, there is no task penalty. 】

Yan Shutong slept until dawn the next day. He opened his eyes and saw the task released by the system. Before he had time to complain about the new task of the system, he saw Xu Yanqiu's phone call to his mobile phone.

He quickly connected: "Sister Qiu, what's the matter?"

"Shutong, do you still remember the endorsement of the famous lipstick I told you last time?" Xu Yanqiu's tone was a little excited, "The endorsement has been completed. They called me just now and they will sign a contract soon!"

"Where are you now, the hotel? I'll call Tang Yuan first, and then I'll go over and talk to you in detail!"

Twenty minutes later, Xu Yanqiu came to the hotel room with Tang Yuan.

The good news she brought is not just the lipstick endorsement.Because the endorser is quite satisfied with him and has high expectations, so I hope that Yan Shutong can also sing a commercial song in addition to shooting commercials this time.

"I reported the commercial song to the company, and if there are no accidents, the company should be able to pick one from the song library for you." Xu Yanqiu looked at him with a smile, "Didn't you just say that you wanted to try singing? "

"Shutong, how do you sing?" Without waiting for Yan Shutong to answer, she said again, "But the requirements for commercial songs are not high, I will pay attention to choosing a simpler song for you. We don't want to develop in the music world, as long as we don't go out of tune we should It will be all right."

Yan Shutong thought that the task rewards given by the system were all courses related to music theory, and thought to himself that the system would not be happy if he didn't develop into the three habitats of film and television.

Maybe one day he will be dissatisfied with releasing his solo single, and he will be given the task of releasing an album.

system:【? 】;

Yan Shutong continued to beep softly.What's the matter, is there something wrong with what he said?The system has already issued him the task to win the prize, and now he feels that any task will not be surprised.

system:"……"

[I see, so you like to release albums.I remember. 】

After speaking, it disappeared.

Only then did Yan Shutong realize that something was wrong, and began to confess to the system, "I'm just kidding, please don't send me another task."

The system didn't answer, but after waiting for a while, Yan Shutong was silently relieved that no new tasks were reminded.

The interval between Yan Shutong's two plays "Chasing" and "Amnesia" was not long, only two weeks in total.He simply asked Xu Yanqiu to help him arrange commercials and song recording within these two weeks.

Shang Qi's development in the past few years has focused on idol singers, and he has a large reserve of songs.After Xu Yanqiu decided on the theme of the lipstick advertisement, she began to choose songs.

However, not long after the news spread that she was going to pick a song for Yan Shutong, someone recommended himself.

And not just one or two.Probably because of Yan Shutong's rising popularity recently, many well-known lyricists even sent their own demos.Xu Yanqiu couldn't choose anymore, so she simply picked a few that fit the theme of the advertisement, and sent them all to Yan Shutong.

The first thing Yan Shutong noticed was not the demo sent by a famous producer, but an old acquaintance of his.

Feng Ye, the captain of Shang Qixin's boy group Eternity.

Because he knew it by himself, Yan Shutong opened the demo written by Feng Ye first, and the first tone at the beginning completely captured his heart.The atmosphere of the whole song is like the mysterious whisper of a siren, covered with a thin and soft veil, which makes people want to stop.

Afterwards, he listened to other songs, but found that none of them were as good as this song by Feng Ye.

Yan Shutong's lipstick advertisement this time is aimed at the new lipstick of the big brand K&L, called "Song of the Mermaid".Therefore, the theme of the entire advertisement is also fit for the mysterious feeling of the sea and mermaids.

Feng Ye's demo is almost made for this commercial, it fits so well.

Yan Shutong quickly made a decision, told Xu Yanqiu that he wanted to choose Feng Ye's song, and opened the latter's WeChat in a blink of an eye.

He was a little curious that Feng Ye sent such a good song, why didn't he mention it to him at all?Wouldn't it be a pity if he and sister Qiu didn't see this song?

It can't be because they think the two of them know each other, and they are afraid that he will choose him because of favors, so they don't say anything, right?

Feng Ye was probably busy with work, Yan Shutong waited for a while and didn't see him replying to the message, so he temporarily put down the phone.

K&L's commercial script was delivered to him yesterday, and Yan Shutong roughly read it. He has no problems with the plot, but the character design is a bit confusing.In the script, he is going to play a mermaid who lives in the deep sea, and for the first time, he paddles his fish tail into legs and lands.

Yan Shutong didn't know how to act like a mermaid, so he took out many domestic and foreign videos about mermaids and started to learn.

While searching, he also discovered that there was still a place dedicated to mermaid performances.

Yan Shutong just wanted to take some time to take a look in these two days, and then mentioned this matter to Xu Yanqiu.

Xu Yanqiu agreed to his request and said to book a ticket for him.It's just that she doesn't have much time recently, so she can only let Tang Yuan go with him.

Yan Shutong had no opinion on who would accompany him, but seeing that Xu Yanqiu had been so busy since the second half of the year that he didn't even have time to rest, he asked with concern, "How about Miss Qiu? Come with us too? You haven't had much time off lately."

"I'll forget it. Now is the time for you to develop, so you don't have time to rest." Xu Yanqiu laughed, "You don't have to feel embarrassed, just have fun with Yuanyuan. That's how I am, I feel fulfilled only when I'm busy. , so the job is more suitable for me."

Yan Shutong couldn't persuade him, so he could only temporarily listen to Xu Yanqiu's words.He thought that Song Ruiyan was Xu Yanqiu's senior brother, and wondered if what the former said could make his sister Qiu obedient and go to rest for a while.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Shutong found out that Feng Ye had replied to his message.

Feng Ye's thinking was exactly what he thought, he didn't want to have an extra relationship because the two of them knew each other, and he didn't want him to be concerned about this reason. In the end, there was a more promising song but he didn't choose.

Fortunately, it was his song that Yan Shutong fell in love with, and Hei liked it very much.

So Feng Ye's worries did not come true.

Yan Shutong: [By the way, there is one more thing.I want to record the song as soon as possible, when can I meet you? 】

Feng Ye answered quickly this time: 【Tomorrow.I have something to go back to the company tomorrow, we can meet at the company, can you tomorrow? 】

Yan Shutong: [Okay, then tomorrow. 】;

The next day, Yan Shutong packed up and went to the company.He hasn't been to Shang Qi's building for a long time since he debuted in filming, and this time he feels like he's gone from another world.

Unlike the last time when he left when no one cared about him, this time Yan Shutong was greeted by people as soon as he stepped into the company.Some people even hugged them, and asked Yan Shutong to sign them while they were free from fishing at work.

Yan Shutong and Feng Ye made an appointment at 10:30 in the morning, and he came half an hour earlier, just because he had nothing to do, so he started to sign for people.

As a personal assistant, Tang Yuan, of course, has been closely following him.

But right now, he was signing autographs inside the company, so he didn't need to be as vigilant as he was outside.

After more than ten minutes of excitement, the staff who surrounded Yan Shutong were taken away by the supervisor of their own department.Finally, Yan Shutong was free, and hurriedly took Tang Yuan to the conference room on the third floor.

What he didn't know was that after he left, someone happened to see the scene before and after, and then sneered, "Isn't it just a little bit hotter? What's there to be proud of. There are not many short-lived stars these days. Let's see what he looks like after a few years. Don't you think so, Ziming?"

Standing next to the sour-tongued person was Lin Ziming who had been a trainee with Yan Shu before.

Both of them were transferred to the agent's hands at the same time, ready to debut.Now that half a year has passed, the gap in status is like a natural moat.

Lin Ziming took a deep look at Yan Shutong's back, and responded to his companion, "Yes."

"By the way, where is Chen Xin? Where did he go?" The companion cursed in a low voice, "I don't know what's going on with this kid. I haven't seen him several times in the past six months, and he seems to avoid us. !"

"Who knows, maybe they think we're worthless, so we shouldn't be friends." Lin Ziming guessed casually.

"He dares to think like that!" The companion angrily said, "Don't forget that when he came from the countryside and didn't know anything, we accepted him!"

"It was at the beginning, but now I don't like it anymore. It's no surprise to avoid me." Lin Ziming sneered.

On the other side, Yan Shutong had already met Feng Ye.

The two haven't seen each other for a long time, and they exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting to the point.

Yan Shutong didn't know anything about music, but he could give some advice from the perspective of advertising, and Feng Ye wrote them down in his notebook one by one, "The elements you mentioned are easy to do, and I will find a way to add them. In the song. I finished writing this song a long time ago, and I should be able to help you arrange it in the past two days. It's just..."

He paused, and then said, "If you trust me, can you entrust me with the recording of this song including the post-production?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely not take over the work that I don't know. I am familiar with the team that produced our album, and I can invite them to come and help me make this song."

"I just want to develop in the direction of a singer-songwriter in the future, so I'm trying to accumulate some experience."

Yan Shutong was worrying about how to record songs. Xu Yanqiu had never brought artists like idol singers before, nor did he have the resources to do so.

Unexpectedly, Feng Ye dozed off and brought the pillow.

"Of course I'm fine, so I'll have to trouble you." Eternity is a boy group that Shang Qi has put a lot of effort into, and the production team responsible for their album must be top-notch.Yan Shutong couldn't wish for this opportunity to cooperate.

"By the way, Tongtong." Feng Ye suddenly thought of something, and asked casually, "How is your singing? Don't you get out of tune?"

His requirements for Yan Shutong are the same as Xu Yanqiu's, he doesn't need to have outstanding talent, as long as he doesn't go out of tune.But even if it's a little out of tune, it doesn't matter, everyone can sing by repairing the tone these days.

However, Feng Ye has always disliked this kind of atmosphere, but if Yan Shutong really can't sing, he won't force it.

Yan Shutong first replied subconsciously: "I don't sing very well, maybe I'm a little tone deaf..."

After finishing speaking, he realized that he still had a task reward given by the system that was useless, so he went back and added a sentence, "But if you are in a better state that day, you can sing well..."

Feng Ye only thought that what he said later was comforting himself, so he said with a serious expression, "Okay, I understand."

It seems that on the day of the recording, he also invited an experienced producer to come.If he is not capable, at least someone else can escort his good friend.

The song recording time was tentatively set for a week later, and Yan Shutong began to prepare for the shooting of the commercial with one heart and one heart.

Before filming, he also needed to take a trip to the aquarium to see what a professional mermaid show was like.The day after tomorrow is the shooting time, Yan Shutong asked Tang Yuan to help him book tickets for tomorrow, and Tang Yuan readily agreed.

Unexpectedly, after a while, he came to Yan Shutong with a distressed face, "Tongtong, I can't accompany you to the aquarium tomorrow."

The grandfather in Tang Yuan's hometown had a serious illness and is now in the hospital.His parents didn't want to disturb his work, but the doctor said that the old man's work was done in the past few days, and asked the family to see if the old man still had any unfinished wishes, and help them complete them quickly.

Grandpa Tang Yuan wanted to see him again, so his parents called him.

Tangtuan got the news and immediately booked the nearest ticket to go home.It wasn't until I had paid all the money that I remembered that there was still something about the aquarium tomorrow.

"It's such a big deal, brother Yuanyuan, you should hurry home!" Yan Shutong took out his mobile phone as he said that, "Do you still have enough money in your hand? I'll transfer some emergency money to you first."

"There's no need for this, Tongtong, I'm rich!" Tang Yuan quickly stopped his action, "I guess I won't be able to come back to work for a while, and you may have to shoot the advertisement the day after tomorrow by yourself..."

"These are trivial things. I'm not a child anymore. I can handle them all. You can go home without worry!" Yan Shutong patted him, "If it really doesn't work, isn't Sister Qiu still here? I Just tie up sister Qiu to shoot commercials with me, just let her have a good rest for a few days!"

Tang Yuan felt relieved: "Then I'll go home and have a look. If you have anything to do, call me anytime, and I'll definitely be back!"

Yan Shutong sent him to the taxi: "Okay, okay, go quickly. Remember to be safe on the road."

Tang Yuan hurriedly left the company and went to the high-speed rail station.

His hometown is near the capital, and he can go home faster by high-speed rail than by plane.

Yan Shutong also turned around and returned to the company. Xu Yanqiu ordered him not to take a taxi by himself, fearing that something would happen to him alone.

He obediently obeyed, didn't leave the company by himself, and took a taxi home.

After sending a message to Xu Yanqiu to explain Tang Yuan's matter, Yan Shutong randomly found an empty meeting room and sat down, waiting for his sister Qiu to arrange someone for him to take him home.

However, not knowing how to drive would be a problem after all. It seemed that when he was an adult, he had to put the driver's license test on the agenda quickly.

Without Yuyuan, Yan Shutong's planned trip to the aquarium would be in vain.

He was still a little disappointed. After all, since he entered the entertainment circle, oh no, it should be that he hasn't had the experience of going out with friends for a long time since he was in the second year of junior high school.

I used to work for money, but now I work for my life.Anyway, there was something behind Yan Shutong urging him all the time, so that he didn't dare to have the slightest thought of stopping and running forward.

After returning home, enter the system space and let the system see if it can simulate an aquarium scene for him.

Yan Shu thought about it.

Waiting and waiting, Yan Shutong's phone on the table lit up by itself.

He opened it and saw that it was a message from Duan Tou.

The message is short, but the content is shocking.

Duan Bao: 【Come to the company basement, I'll take you back. 】;

Yan Shutong:? ?

What does this mean?Sister Qiu found a driver for him to take him home, but she found the big boss?

His pupils quake.

Maybe because he didn't see Yan Shutong's reply message, after 5 minutes, Duan Tou's voice call came directly.

Yan Shutong frantically connected, and almost dropped the phone on his foot during the process, "Hello...Brother Duan?"

"Hmm." Duan Bao's deep voice came, "Where are you now? I'll pick you up."

"Ah, no need." Yan Shu was stunned, and then jumped up from the chair, "Didn't you say to wait for me in the basement? Let's meet in the basement!"

Hearing this, the man on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows, "Did you see the message? Then why didn't you reply to me?"

Yan Shutong: "..."

For some reason, he found that the recent Duan Tou seemed particularly difficult to deal with.

By saying this, I didn't mean that the previous Duan Pao was easy to deal with, but when I was with Duan Pao before, Yan Shutong had never been in a situation where he was always speechless like these two times.

In the end, Yan Shutong could only chuckle, and then pretended to be stupid, "I just saw it, I just saw it. I just happened to be busy with something!"

He rushed to the basement floor in the elevator, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Duan Bao standing at the entrance of the elevator.

The man leaned sideways on the wall, but his casual movements were particularly charming, full of the charm of a mature man.Duan Tou held the mobile phone, he didn't know what he saw, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

This hint of a smile made his already attractive appearance even more eye-catching.

Hearing the sound of the elevator door opening, Duan raised his head, and said with Yan Shutong with his usual expression, "Are you done with your work?"

"Yeah." I'm sure, the recent brother Duan is indeed particularly difficult to deal with.

"Then get in the car." Duan Bao took him into his low-key luxury car.

Yan Shutong hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't help asking, "Brother Duan... why did you come to pick me up? Sister Qiu didn't tell me in advance."

"Xu Yanqiu is looking for Song Ruiyan, let him find someone in the company who is okay to take you off." Duan Bao motioned him to put on his seat belt, and then started the car, "It happens that I am fine, so I came to see you off. Is there a problem?"

Yes, and it's a big problem!

But Yan Shutong didn't dare to question it, so he accepted Duan Tou's argument.

Duan Diao was very stable in the car, just like he gave people a mature and stable feeling.Yan Shutong looked at the scenery lined up outside the car window, and couldn't help but think of the experience of live broadcasting with Duan Tou last time.He rubbed his ears, feeling burned.

Yan Shutong was about to say something, but when the silence in the car was broken, Duan Bao in the driver's seat spoke first.

"I heard from Xu Yanqiu that you're going to shoot a K&L commercial the day after tomorrow, so what about today and tomorrow? No job?"

"I originally planned to go to the aquarium with my assistant tomorrow, but the assistant has something to do temporarily, so forget it." Yan Shutong sighed, "I should stay at home for the next two days."

Duan Bao's expression moved slightly: "You and your assistant go to the aquarium? The two of you?"

He paused for a second, then asked again, "What are you going to do?"

"Tomorrow there will be a mermaid show in the Capital Aquarium, and I want to go see it." Yan Shutong rested his chin, "The theme of K&L's advertisement is related to mermaids, and I want to watch a show by professionals."

It turned out to be the case.

Duan Tou loosened his grip on the steering wheel: "Have you bought the ticket? What time is it?"

"It starts at two o'clock in the afternoon. Tickets are already bought, but if I go out alone, sister Qiu is worried, and sister Qiu will not be able to accompany me tomorrow..." Yan Shutong suddenly stopped, then tilted his head, and looked around the man next to him.

"Brother Duan, do you have time tomorrow? The ticket price for this performance is quite expensive, so don't waste it."

However, after speaking, Yan Shutong regretted it.Duan Bao is such a busy person, how can he have time to go to some aquarium with him.

Besides, he thinks the fare is expensive, but others don't necessarily think it's expensive.

With Duan Tou's worth, I don't know how much I can earn back in the two hours of going to the show with him.

Thinking of this, Yan Shutong was rather embarrassed, "I'm sorry, Brother Duan, just pretend that I didn't..."

"I have time." Duan Tou cut off his words, "Is the opening performance at two o'clock? How about it, I'll pick you up at noon tomorrow, let's have lunch first, and then go to the performance together, okay?"

Yan Shutong was silent: "Brother Duan, aren't you busy with work?"

Duan Tou's tone was relaxed, without any regard for Song Ruiyan who was reading documents in the company at the moment, "I've been busy recently."

A few minutes later, Duan Bao parked the car downstairs in Yan Shutong's community, "I will pick you up at [-]:[-] noon tomorrow, and you can call me in advance if you need anything."

"Okay." Yan Shutong was inexplicably arranged like this.

He got out of the car, and before he left, he felt that it was not natural to let Duan leave after he had worked so hard to send him home, so he turned around and knocked on his car window, "Brother Duan, do you want to go upstairs for a drink?"

Duan Pao paused, and his sexy Adam's apple slid up and down.

"Forget it." He chuckled, "Let's wait until next time, when you really remember that you want to invite me to your house for a drink of water."

Yan Shutong is unknown, so isn't he inviting him now?But before he could ask his question, Duan Bao waved to him and drove away.

Yan Shutong went upstairs, and it happened that Pei Yang, who hadn't seen him for a long time, also came home today.The two of them ate hot pot together, Yuanyang hot pot, and they shared Yanshutong's ordinary spicy and Pei Yang's super spicy.Just sitting opposite, Yan Shutong sneezed several times because of Pei Yang's pot bottom.

Pei Yang has been very busy recently. The movie he will be starring in is scheduled for this summer, and he has been traveling with the crew to various parts of the country to promote it.Because of the top-notch production team and Pei Yang's good reputation, the pre-sale box office is quite impressive, ranking first in the summer file.

The premiere was at the beginning of August, and it was only a few days away, so Pei Yang hurried back to the capital today to rest for two days before starting preparations for the premiere.

The two also talked about this movie during their chat. The day of the premiere happened to be the opening ceremony of "Amnesia".It is impossible for Yan Shutong not to go willfully on the auspicious day chosen by the crew, so he has no way to support Pei Yang.

I had to wait for the movie to be released in theaters, and go to the movie theater to watch a show to support it.

"But the promotion on Weibo, I will definitely not let you down." Yan Shutong ate the high-grade wagyu beef that Master Pei brought from home with relish, and said vaguely, "I will count the time I will give you a three-day countdown."

Since Yan Shutong's debut half a year ago, he has had constant ups and downs on Weibo, and his fan attraction has also surpassed other people who debuted at the same time by a large margin.Nowadays, every move on Weibo will be noticed by others.Pei Yang knew that he was trying to create momentum for himself, so he showed him a glass of wine.

Yan Shutong rewarded him with orange juice and wine.

At noon the next day, Yan Shutong was ready an hour in advance and was sitting in the living room.

As soon as Duan Tou's message came, he immediately replied hello, and then went downstairs with his bag.Because it was a private trip, Yan Shutong made a special disguise.

He wears a fisherman's hat that can cover his eyes, a pair of large-frame flat glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a mask to keep others from recognizing him.

Duan put aside the car that brought Shutong back from the banquet yesterday, and changed into a champagne-colored niche car.

The two went to the private restaurant that had been booked in advance together.

"This restaurant is opened by an acquaintance of mine. The dishes are not bad. You can try their specialties later." When he arrived at the place, Duan Tou handed over the car keys to the waiter at the door, and then led them to the box he often went to. .

Duan Tou ordered a few special dishes, and handed the menu to Yan Shutong, "See if there is anything you like."

Yan Shutong opened it and took a look. He was surprised by the unit price of the above dishes, and then began to silently calculate how much he would lose in his small wallet after eating this meal today.

Duan Tou knew what he was thinking at a glance: "Let's eat freely, you don't need to pay for this meal. Didn't you invite me to watch the show? Reciprocity, I will treat you to lunch."

Yan Shutong was embarrassed: "The ticket price for the performance is not as good as your meal."

"Didn't you tell me that this restaurant is opened by an acquaintance of mine, and it doesn't cost much." Duan Tou helped him open the menu, "Order. I'm really sorry, you can invite back next time."

Yan Shutong always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell.

The author says:

Chen Xin appeared in chapter 16, it doesn't matter if you don't remember, as long as you know that he is one of the trainees who have gossiped about it before.
