The Eye of the Storm

Knowing that Liang Sizhe had hoped to agree to make up the auction, the other investors finally stopped for a few days.You know, if this film is not good enough to choose a re-shooter, I am afraid that it will lose everything.

Although the original male lead, Huang Qianshi, may not have much box office appeal, after all, he has appeared in many Hong Kong films, and he is also a best actor. For mainland audiences, he still has a certain screen appeal.

Box office appeal is a very mysterious thing. Some people are very successful in the TV industry, but once they appear on the big screen, they will lose all their charm. Not to mention their own shortcomings, the audience will not buy it.After all, screens are different from screens.

What kind of actor can make the audience willing to buy it?Best of all, once stunning the screen, always foolproof, always at ease.For example, someone like Liang Sizhe was amazing when he first appeared on the screen at the age of 17.

However, since Liang Sizhe asked for the script, there was no news for the next few days.

The one who was most anxious was Zhao Chengdong, who kept saying that Liang Sizhe was just an actor that day, and when he heard that he had the hope of agreeing to make up the filming, he wished he could call [-] times a day to ask questions, which annoyed Lin Yan so much.

Two days later, Lin Yan called and complained to Cao Ye: "This Zhao Chengdong always urges me to respond to Liang Sizhe, but it really annoys me. Why did you cooperate with Zhao Chengdong back then?"

Cao Ye and Lin Yan grew up together, and they never used to beat around the bush when they spoke. At this moment, they answered him bluntly: "The investment is straightforward, and he doesn't interfere with the film. This type of person in the circle is a fool with more money and less trouble." , you can find another one for me to see?"

Lin Yan was silent for a few seconds, and could only nod his head in agreement: "You are right."

"Besides, you caused this matter yourself. He urged you to ask, so you can ask."

"Of course I asked. Liang Sizhe was on vacation abroad recently. I sent a message from my side. He didn't reply to me until two days later. The reply was not painful. He didn't answer the call. How could I guess? What is he thinking now? Cao Ye, I beg you, you are the lead caster for this film, if you ask him yourself, he will always give you face."

Without saying a word, Cao Ye hung up the phone resolutely and continued with the matter at hand.

Cao Ye couldn't guess what Liang Sizhe was thinking, whether he had read the script, and whether he would accept the reshoot.As the main helmsman of Lomon Media, he couldn't put all his weight on the film "The Darkest Choice".

Besides, there is no rush for reshoots. The most important thing right now is that he has to consider the worst outcome and find a good movie in the current movie market that is going to be released. As long as he finds it, Yiluo With Meng's current publicity strength, it is very possible to realize a small investment with a large investment benefit-this is how Luo Meng started three years ago.

It's a pity that the film market is currently in a downturn. At a glance, there are huge investment, sub-quality, and bad movies appearing one after another, and there are no low-cost movies with a dark horse appearance.

Just as Cao Ye was about to click on another movie project book, Lin Yan called again.

He didn't answer at first, but Lin Yanqi called three times in a row, and then he picked up.

"Let me tell you, there is drama." Lin Yan cut to the chase.

Cao Ye said "Huh?", waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, Lin Yan's next sentence was: "But Cao Ye, you still need to come forward in this matter."

Cao Ye looked at the project letter and said casually, "It's enough for you to recruit me once.

"Don't rush to refuse. Liang Sizhe just called me back and said that he will be back in two days. I finally persuaded him to have a dinner with us. Cao Ye, this matter can't be turned around. Don't say that brother won't help you."

"How can you help me? Tell him that I will go, right?"

"Since you guessed it," Lin Yan said boldly, "then go."

Cao Ye didn't answer, kept silent, kept silent.

Lin Yan couldn't wait, and tried to persuade him: "I said that there is no big conflict between you, at best, it's just a small conflict, why make it look like old lovers dare not see each other?"

Cao Ye thought for a while, and felt that Lin Yan's words made sense, so he let go and said, "That's true, then go."

"Okay, then I'll call Liang Sizhe back and tell him to come over, that's the deal."

Daringly, Liang Sizhe hasn't decided at all whether he will come or not, Lin Yan is such a chicken thief that it is hard to guard against.

"By the way," Lin Yan rubbed his nose, "If you, Young Master Cao, are willing to condescend to pick up a plane for Liang Sizhe, our sincerity can be expressed more sincerely."

Before he could finish speaking, Cao Ye had already hung up the phone.

Cao Ye knew very well that Lin Yan's enthusiasm for this matter was not only due to the friendship between them, but more importantly, the Dongsheng Entertainment Company he controlled was second only to Luo Meng. The second largest investor in the media's "Darkest Choice".

Lin Yan has always put profit first, and obviously he will not easily give up this opportunity to use Liang Sizhe to turn himself around.

Not long after the phone call was over, an unknown person posted the news on the Internet, saying that Liang Sizhe was considering replacing Huang Qianshi in the filming of "The Darkest Choice".After the news was reposted by several Weibo big Vs in turn, it gradually became difficult to tell whether it was true or false from the initial unbelief, and for a while there were different opinions on the Internet.

——"Sneaking into Liang Sizhe's head, the film crew really has an unbelievably big face."

——"Liang Sizhe is willing to accept this film appointment, and I will live broadcast the live washing machine, and I will do what I say."

——"Wake up, stop dreaming."

——"According to Liang Yingdi's unreasonable temperament, I was not sure whether I should believe this revelation..."

——"A ten-year-old fan like me, crying and saying that I think it is really possible for him to do such a thing..."

——"Liang Sizhe can do this kind of self-degrading thing, but Xu Yunchu will agree?"

——"Just kidding, if Xu Yunchu can control Liang Sizhe, will he expose so many rumored girlfriends?"

In a word, regarding the fact that Liang Sizhe will participate in the supplementary filming of "The Darkest Choice", the opinions on the Internet can be roughly divided into three groups: don't believe it, don't like it, and don't agree.

Three days later, Liang Sizhe really came back as promised.

At 03:30 in the morning, at the Capital Airport, dedicated entertainment journalists pulled the disgraced Liang Sizhe out of the crowd with sharp eyes.

Looking at his face alone, Liang Sizhe was still good-looking, but he didn't look like he was on vacation abroad, but rather returned from scavenging -- he was wearing a half-worn white shirt, with fresh mud spots splashed on his trousers somewhere.

Xu had spent enough time in the sparsely populated deserted villages abroad. When the entertainment reporters rushed over, Liang Sizhe seemed to be frightened and took a small step back: "Hey, such a big battle," and then his tone was a little bit Hesitant, with some innocence in his eyes, "I haven't been photographed lately, have I?"

"It's filmed, it's filmed!" The surrounding Yu Ji joked at him.

Liang Sizhe obviously knew that they were joking, so he raised three fingers to his ear in a non-serious way: "As God testifies, I've been really ascetic lately."

This caused a burst of laughter.

"I don't believe it!" someone shouted first, with a high voice.

There was a lot of commotion, and the crowd of onlookers soon gathered more and more. When the unexplained passengers waiting for the flight heard that Liang Sizhe was coming, they gathered around to watch the excitement.Fortunately, there were not many passengers in the early morning, so it would not cause chaos at the airport.

Song Qingyan, Liang Sizhe's executive manager and assistant, brought an airport security guard over, carefully protecting him to prevent him from being pushed by people around him.

"Hush, someone is sleeping," Liang Sizhe gestured to silence the people around him, "Tell me, what do you want to ask when you wait here in the middle of the night? Let's talk while walking."

As soon as he moved, more than a dozen reporters followed quickly.A reporter immediately asked: "Si Zhe, there is news that you are considering taking over Huang Qianshi's remake of "The Darkest Choice". Is it true?"

"It's because of this..." Liang Sizhe paused thoughtfully, and then smiled, "You guys are very well informed, yes, I have received an invitation, and I am indeed reading the script."

"Then came back this time to talk about this matter?"

"Guess." Liang Sizhe turned his face away and looked at the person who asked the question with a smile.This is one of his usual tricks in interviews. When he doesn’t want to answer, he just says “guess”. However, when he said this, his eyes were full of ridicule and jokes, which makes people can’t bear to be serious with him.

It was the same this time, the person who asked the question was a young female reporter, she was at a loss for words for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, someone quickly seized the opportunity and asked, "Mr. Liang, why are you considering this re-shooting invitation?"

Liang Sizhe's eyes also moved to the face of the person who asked the question, and instead of answering the question directly, Gu Zuo said to him: "You did an exclusive interview for me, didn't you?"

"Ah... yes, you still remember." The reporter was obviously a little surprised.

"Because you got that title, it's kind of... How should I put it, tricky?" He really started chatting with the reporter, unhurriedly, having some conversations with each other.

"Your campaign later dropped that headline."

"It wasn't him. I rejected it. I happened to see it that time. Do you want to know why?" Liang Sizhe said casually, as if joking with an old friend, "You just see through me and try to expose me. I'm not being kind."

——"Youth actor Liang Sizhe: Arrogance is his protective color", Liang Sizhe still remembers the original title of that magazine article very clearly.

Liang Sizhe was tall and had long legs, and his steps were fast. When he interrupted, the reporters present followed him to the airport exit before they had time to ask why.

At the exit, an imposing black commercial vehicle was parked there, and the driver had already opened the rear door and waited.

With airport security guarding him, Liang Sizhe got into the car safely and unharmed.As soon as the car door was closed, the reporters were stopped outside, and one after another of questions came in vaguely through the thick car door.

Song Qingyan got on the bus from the other side and sat in the last row.

The driver sat up immediately, put on the seat belt, let go of the handbrake, and turned on the ignition. He moved neatly, and then asked Liang Sizhe routinely: "Mr. Liang, let's go now?"

Liang Sizhe was turning his face to look out of the car window. Through the black shading film on the car glass, he saw a bright and round moon hanging in the sky not far away.The moon on the fifteenth is sixteen round, and today happens to be the middle of the month, the sixteenth.

If he didn't speak, the driver could not drive the car away on his own initiative.

The reporters outside the car still refused to give up. Someone came up and tried to open the car door. From inside the car, it looked like they were watching an old black and white silent movie.The background was the dim tone of the street lights. Everyone looked anxious, their lips kept moving, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.

"Brother Sizhe, shall we go?" Song Qingyan thought he was in a trance, and reminded him aloud.

"Wait." Liang Sizhe said suddenly, and then stretched out his hand to press the button of the car window, and the car window fell down immediately. He lay on the window sill and looked at the people outside the car, "I still have a question that I didn't answer just now, right?"

A reporter didn't hear him, and continued to ask questions loudly: "Mr. Liang, what do you think about Huang Qianshi's drug use?"

Liang Sizhe ignored the question, and didn't care whether anyone was listening, and said in a neither high nor low voice, "Why should I consider accepting this re-shooting invitation... because this film is related to an old friend of mine. , he is kind to me, so I am thinking about repaying the kindness."

After finishing speaking, regardless of the reaction outside the car, he raised the window, leaned on the back of the seat in a relaxed posture, and said to the driver in the front row: "Brother Chen, let's go."

Song Qingyan in the back row was not so calm. As soon as the car window was closed, she leaned over the car seat and asked, "Brother Sizhe, why are you repaying your favor? This movie is related to Director Cao Xiuyuan?"

"It's also related, and it's also irrelevant." Liang Sizhe is the best at showing off.

"I can't understand you more and more... It's over, I think sister Yunchu will be angry again tomorrow." Song Qingyan rested her chin on the front seat, her voice revealing a hint of despair, "She wouldn't let you If you accept this film, it's good for you, first let the news go to Yuji, and even take the initiative to break the news, it's not at all..." His voice became weaker and weaker, and he dared not continue.

Liang Sizhe didn't hear the following words clearly, so he closed his eyes and asked, "It's nothing at all?"

"Reserved, you are not reserved at all!" Song Qingyan said boldly.

Liang Sizhe couldn't help laughing: "When did you see me being reserved?"

"It doesn't matter if you are not reserved," Song Qingyan muttered in a low voice, keeping the volume at just the right decibel—if she judged that there was a hint of displeasure on Liang Sizhe's face, she could rein in it at any time, "but this This time...it's really not good, you don't even know how to say it on the Internet, saying that this is a substitute, picking up the leftovers, it's ugly."

"Let them talk." Liang Sizhe opened his eyes and turned his head to look at her. "Believe it or not, I will definitely be on the headlines in a few hours. Why this expression? I haven't been on the headlines for a few months, you You should be happy."

Song Qingyan looked sad: "It's okay if it doesn't make the headlines, but now that it's on the headlines, Miss Yunchu will be blown up...Brother Sizhe, are you really planning to accept this film?"

"Let's see and talk." Liang Sizhe said in a relaxed tone.

"Huh? Did you say that to Yuji before you made up your mind?"

Song Qingyan sat back in his seat dumbfounded.

She was really worried about Xu Yunchu.If Liang Sizhe accepted this film, he would be accused of being a substitute, leftovers, and lose his value; if Liang Sizhe did not accept this film, once his answer was broadcast today, he would be scolded again.

She, a little assistant who has only been in the industry for two years, can think of this level. Liang Sizhe has struggled in this industry for ten years, and has received more scolding than she has drunk. Can this result not be expected?

Thinking of this, she quickly took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Xu Yunchu.
