Recalcitrant

"Long Road" has been suppressed by Chen Zhuo for nearly four years. Once it was released, it swept away many nominations for the Flying Eagle Awards.

With Chen Zhuo's comeback, besides his works, there are also gossips flying all over the sky that have returned to the public eye.

On one side, Ding Lu performed unforgettable performances in various media interviews, while on the other side, the news of Zhang Luyu and Chen Zhuo's high-profile confession of love broke out.

The cause of the incident was that Zhang Luyu and the mysterious male secret meeting in the jewelry store were photographed, and an insider broke the news the next day that the mysterious man was Chen Zhuo.

The media with good deeds came to the door to verify, neither Chen Zhuo nor Zhang Luyu denied it.Within a few days, that large diamond ring of several carats appeared boldly on Zhang Luyu's ring finger, as if acknowledging the rumor that the two were about to get married in disguise.

On the night of the Flying Eagle Awards Ceremony, the rumored male and female protagonists did not avoid suspicion and appeared at the venue hand in hand.

There is still some time before the ceremony begins, and the guest actors who were invited to attend are all waiting to enter.In the rest area, the stars are shining brightly, celebrities and celebrities dressed up, sitting with their respective teams, all with indifferent expressions on their faces.

There is no camera here to magnify everyone's words and deeds. They don't need to work hard to show off their beauty, and they don't need to pinch their noses to perform superficial "brothers and sisters". The relationship between stars can be seen at a glance. It is clear, and there is no confusion in the media's writing.

"Why didn't you see people from Gathering Stars tonight? Aren't they always high-profile in the past?" In an inconspicuous corner, an undisguised discussion broke out.

Someone laughed softly: "Where is there any gathering of stars now, it's all in the past tense."

"You can't say that, isn't President Lu not implicated?" The person who spoke may have some friendship with Lu Shaoheng, and he didn't make his words too harsh: "Now that something like this happened to Juxing, I don't know if he will be involved in the future." What plan."

"Who knows, let's start a live broadcast to reveal the inside story of the entertainment industry, maybe there will be some traffic."

"Without the backing of Juxing, I don't know how long some people can last."

"Look at you, people have stopped hugging Pipa a long time ago, have you read the latest news?"

Afterwards, the voice gradually weakened, but the discussion did not stop, and malicious laughter came from the crowd from time to time.

The "certain people" they mentioned clearly pointed to Chen Zhuo.

Zhang Luyu withdrew her gaze from a few rows behind her. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Jiang Xiaobo's hair bristling with anger. In order to ease the atmosphere, she asked Chen Zhuo beside her, "Are you nervous?"

"It's okay." Without squinting, Chen Yao reached out and patted Jiang Xiaobo's thigh lightly, signaling him not to be impulsive.

It was the first time for Chen Zhuo to win the Flying Eagle Award after many years, and he is still the favorite to win the award tonight. Making negative news on the spot is not something smart people do.

Jiang Xiaobo gritted his teeth and held back his breath.

Chen Zhuo heard the discussion just now.People in the entertainment industry are full of eyes, and they dare not make mistakes in one step. What they are best at is superficial skills, so that they will not offend people easily.

These words fell into his ears so coincidentally, which shows that the speaker did it on purpose.

Chen Zhuo recognized those people, they were all the main creators of another movie. Not only were they going to compete for the Best Picture Award with "Long Road" tonight, but they had some feuds with Juxing, Lu Shaoheng, and even Chen Zhuo himself.

The actors at the beginning began to walk on the red carpet one after another, and soon it was the turn of the "Long Road" crew. At this moment, Chen Zhuo's cell phone vibrated in his jacket.

The appearance was about to start, and a string of unremarked numbers flashed on the screen. Chen Yao glanced at it and didn't want to answer it.

Zhang Luyu was attracted by the vibrating sound of reluctance to give up, and cast a concerned look at him.Chen Zhuo gestured "Sorry" to her, took the phone and left the seat, and came to the corner alone.

Just as the phone was picked up, a male voice rang out: "I'm Ling Xiao."

Chen Zhuo knew that the call was from Ling Xiao. At this time, he and Lu Shaoheng should be busy preparing to go abroad.Chen Zhuo was not interested in greeting him, and asked straight to the point: "What's the matter?"

Ling Xiao said flatly on the other end of the phone: "I want to talk to you."

"It's not necessary." Chen Yao smiled lightly, rubbed his fingers unconsciously, and suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette.

"It's about Shaoheng." Ling Xiao clarified his reason for coming.

The title "Shaoheng" made Chen Zhuo frowned.

"You don't need to tell me about him anymore, we have nothing to do with it."

Not far away, a staff member called Chen Zhuo’s name, reminding him that he was about to play, Chen Zhuo nodded to show that he knew, and ended the conversation with Ling Xiao with a polite sentence: “I heard that you are going to go abroad for further study, I wish you all the best .”

After speaking, he was about to hang up the phone.

"He won't go with me. It's not his ultimate goal to bring down the stars and send the executives to jail. His plan is not over yet, and he still has things to do." Grasping the last moment, Ling Xiao spoke quickly , finished what he wanted to say like pouring beans: "From the beginning to the end, he never thought of going with me, it was just a misunderstanding that day."

"What else does he want to do?" Chen Zhuo really stopped, and from Ling Xiao's tone, he noticed something unusual.

"Let's meet and talk." Ling Xiao lowered his voice a bit, this was the first time he showed weakness to Chen Zhuo: "Director Chen, please, this matter is very important."

Ling Xiao's words made Chen Zhuo suddenly have an ominous premonition. He thought that Lu Shaoheng's goal had been achieved, and he could live the life he liked in the future.But according to Ling Xiao's meaning, he still has the next move, and the current situation is not his ultimate goal.

So what else does he want to do?Now that Juxing has been seized, it is almost impossible to make a comeback.An Ran and other executives involved in the case were detained and awaiting sentencing.Lu Heping lay half dead on the bed, relying on several tubes to maintain his life.

Chen Zhuo stopped making unnecessary guesses, glanced at the watch on his wrist, and said, "After the awards show, come to the South Mansion to meet."

The South Mansion is where Chen Zhuo lived during this time.

"Okay." Seeing that Chen Zhuo let go, Ling Xiao quickly responded, for fear that he would go back on his word: "Thank you, see you tonight."

***

The venue of the Flying Eagle Awards this year went around and went back to the historic Republic of China Auditorium in the center of H.In order to ensure the smooth progress of the event, traffic control was implemented on several surrounding roads a few hours before the party started.

The road that Lu Shaoheng used to go home was within the scope of control. As soon as his car reached the intersection at night, he was stopped by the traffic police.

Who would have thought that people who were sitting in the auditorium to watch the ceremony last year would be blocked by the isolation line a few streets away this year, which is embarrassing enough to say.

However, Lu Shaoheng himself didn't feel that there was a big gap. He had just returned from visiting Lu Heping in the hospital, and he was in a very happy mood, humming an unknown tune all the way.

This year's Flying Eagle Award was sponsored by many local companies. The award ceremony was being broadcast live on the sky in the commercial square. Lu Shaoheng drove by and took a look at it while waiting for the red light.

The awards ceremony came to an end, Chen Zhuo stepped onto the stage amidst thunderous applause, and the green light was turned on at the same time, Lu Shaoheng was stunned for a few seconds, causing traffic to be blocked for hundreds of meters at the intersection.

A piercing horn sounded from behind, and Lu Shaoheng hurriedly pulled over and parked the car, sitting in the car and continuing to look at the people in the sky.

Chen Zhuo is probably the only director whose fan circle is comparable to that of an idol star, and the fans made the support to the extreme.Chen Zhuo's nomination of Flying Eagle this time means a lot to them. Not only are there a large number of fans gathered in the square at the moment, but the dozens of large screens on both sides of the sky are also simultaneously playing Chen Zhuo's photos and exciting movie clips in turn. Attracted a large number of passers-by to stop and watch the excitement.

When Zhang Luyu handed over the best director trophy to Chen Zhuo, earth-shattering screams erupted from the square, and thousands of drones that had been waiting by the side took off on time. A light show was performed in the sky.

The facades of the skyscrapers are combined with the patterns made by the drones, and the colors are constantly changing. The commercial plaza has been transformed into a grotesque small world full of cyberpunk technology.

Under the brilliant lights, amidst the cheers one after another, there is a small black sports car standing quietly. The dark heat-insulating film on the glass blocks the light from the outside world. Lu Shaoheng sits in the darkness, like an lonely person passing by by chance. Ghosts.

The award ceremony is still going on. In Lu Shaoheng's eyes, Chen Zhuo and Zhang Luyu in the camera are more dazzling than everything around them. One of them is a promising newcomer, and the other is an internationally renowned director. The two met when they were young, and now they are in See you at the top.

Finally getting married soon.

Such two talents should stand side by side in the sun, Lu Shaoheng thought so, looking at a small medicine bottle on the windshield.

An award presenter teased Director Chen that good things were coming soon, double happiness was coming, and the on-site director cut the scene to Zhang Luyu in time.

Zhang Luyu lowered his head and smiled, his brows and eyes were full of joy immersed in happiness.She didn't answer directly, but leaned closer to the microphone and said, "Congratulations to Director Chen Zhuo, next I invite Director Chen to deliver his acceptance speech."

Zhang Luyu's voice was like a hand, pulling Lu Shaoheng out of the abyss of consciousness. The restless fans in the square also fell silent. They were all waiting with bated breath. position, and won the Eagle Award again, will say something.

Chen Zhuo was thoughtful and rigorous in his work, and his speech was even and steady. This acceptance speech was quite satisfactory, with no bright spots or faults.He thanked everyone who participated in the film, even those whose names did not appear at the end of the film.

In the end, he looked at the camera calmly, said a word of thanks in a low voice, shook the trophy in his hand, and left the stage without looking back.

Chen Zhuo himself was a few kilometers away, but his eyes passed through the camera as if they had substance, and fell on Lu Shaoheng off the screen.

Lu Shaoheng's eyes were suddenly ignited by the person in the sky, and the lingering black water was entwined with blazing flames, rampaging in his eyes, brewing into an extremely dangerous small storm.

It seems that if you just look at him, you will be swallowed into the endless eye of the storm, and there will be no bones left.

This is a dangerous message.

A motorcycle, flashing red and blue lights, stopped beside Lu Shaoheng's car.The patrolling traffic police got out of the car and knocked on Lu Shaoheng's car window.

Lu Shaoheng's profile paused slightly, and within a few seconds of turning his head, the madness and paranoia in his eyes had been cleaned up.

Lu Shaoheng lowered the car window and saw a heroic female traffic policeman outside the car, her smile was brighter than before: "Is there anything I can do to help?"

The policewoman was used to seeing these lawless rich second generations, so she wasn't confused by this boyish face, and didn't bother to chat with him, so she said in a business-like way: "Parking is prohibited here."

"I'm so sorry." Lu Shaoheng's attitude was very cooperative, just like a citizen who was active and enthusiastic in TV interviews, but his "enthusiasm" also contained a bit of frivolity, and it seemed that his motives were not pure.

Lu Shaoheng said: "I will move the car away immediately, which will cause trouble to your work. Do you need me to go to the traffic police brigade to cooperate?"

"No need." The female policeman didn't accept this trick, "I'm not going to make an example."

After leaving the central square, turn to the left again, and you will arrive at one of Lu Shaoheng's residences in the "Three Caves of the Rabbit".As soon as he walked out of the elevator with the car keys in hand, he met Ling Xiao head-on.

Seeing Lu Shaoheng coming back, a look of panic flashed across Ling Xiao's face, but he quickly returned to normal.

"I went to the company today, and I brought back all your personal belongings, and put them on the shelf in the study." Ling Xiao avoided Lu Shaoheng's gaze, noticed that his face was abnormally white, and then One more question: "Are you okay?"

Lu Shaoheng didn't answer, but looked at Ling Xiao calmly: "Where are you going in such a hurry?"

Ling Xiao replied: "Go out for a while."

This is a standard nonsense, Ling Xiao is not good at lying in front of Lu Shaoheng, his eyes dodge, his words flicker, it is obvious that he is hiding something from Lu Shaoheng.

Lu Shaoheng didn't mean to delve into it, so he let him go easily, and even confessed in the mood: "Go, you have to prepare for the TOEFL test recently, and go back to review as soon as you are done."
