Become Famous Another Day

 With the help of the director team’s “great kindness”, they had a sumptuous hot pot meal.

 Eating can soothe the mind. This sentence is not deceptive.

 After eating and drinking, Lu Yanhe was ready to take a nap.

 He also wanted to send a message to Chen Ziyan and talk about what He Zhong said in the morning.

  Could it be He Zhong who implanted the Trojan horse into his computer? This idea pops up in Lu Yanhe's mind from time to time.

Even though Lu Yanhe felt that it shouldn't be the case, if it was him, why did he take the initiative to remind him?

Lu Yanhe couldn't think clearly about this matter, so he simply stopped thinking about it and discussed it with Chen Ziyan.

-

Because there were cameras all around, Lu Yanhe could only communicate with Chen Ziyan by typing.

Chen Ziyan asked: Did He Zhong tell you anything else?

 Lu Yanhe: No.

Chen Ziyan said: Then maybe he saw someone else doing this? He is a photographer. He is either following you or looking at your lens. He will see many things that you have not noticed yourself.

Lu Yanhe: Maybe, but because I have been recording the show, I can’t ask him about the situation privately.

This is what reality shows are like. Compared with ordinary program recordings, reality shows have almost no rest time. You can only briefly avoid the camera when going to the bathroom.

Chen Ziyan: But He Zhong’s reaction shows one thing. The person who implanted the Trojan horse into your computer is in the program group of "Young Days".

 Because the intersection between He Zhong and Lu Yanhe was in the program "Young Days", and there was no other intersection.

Chen Ziyan said: I will contact He Zhong to see if I can get some news.

 Lu Yanhe responded well.

Chen Ziyan added: In this way, you have to pay more attention to the "Young Days" program team. Before we find that person, you have to pay attention to every move and be cautious in your words and deeds.

 Lu Yanhe: Yes, I understand.

-

However, what neither Lu Yanhe nor Chen Ziyan expected was that He Zhong left the program crew thirty minutes later.

At this moment, Li Zhenzhen looked at He Zhong in disbelief and asked, "You want to leave?"

"Yes, sorry." He Zhong's expression also looked full of uneasiness, apology, and even guilt.

"He Zhong, do you know what you are talking about?" Li Zhenzhen asked, "Our program is in the process of recording. You said you are leaving at this time. What will happen to the recording? Who will film Lu Yanhe?"

"I will ask my friends to come over and make up for my shortcomings." He Zhong said, "I have an emergency at home. I really have no choice but to go back."

 Li Zhenzhen: "You signed a contract with us, He Zhong, you, you—"

When Li Zhenzhen thought about the fact that he had warmly invited He Zhong to join his next program two hours ago and expressed his appreciation for him, he felt like he had been slapped twice, and his face was filled with a stinging sensation.

 The look of guilt on He Zhong's face became even more intense, but he insisted on leaving without any hesitation or struggle.

"Director, I'm very sorry. I will fully bear the responsibility for the compensation caused to the program team." He Zhong said, "If it weren't for something really urgent at home, I would never have left at this time. There really was no such thing. The solution, photographer, don’t worry, as long as you are willing, I will contact my friend immediately and handle the handover with him, so that the shooting will not be delayed. "

Li Zhenzhen glanced at He Zhong helplessly. At this moment, she softened her heart again.

He Zhong's attitude was too sincere, and he was leaving because something urgent happened at home. What else could Li Zhenzhen say about this situation?

"Can't you wait for three days?" Li Zhenzhen softened his tone and tried one last time.

He Zhong said: "There is really no other way, director."

"What is the urgent matter that makes you have to leave immediately?" Li Zhenzhen said, "Our program will be completely recorded in three days. If you have any problems, please tell me and maybe I can help you solve them? He Zhong, You know, I really appreciate you. I admire you so much that I hope you can join my team and become my regular teammate. If you suddenly want to leave, I can't stop you, but at least you can tell the truth. Come out, maybe we can figure it out together?"

He Zhong shook his head, looked at Li Zhenzhen silently, and said, "This is a private matter in my family. It's really inconvenient to talk about it. I'm sorry."

Li Zhenzhen sighed and said, "Well, if that's the case, then there is absolutely no other way. This is the only way."

He Zhong asked: "Then I will contact my friend now and ask him to come over quickly."

 Li Zhenzhen nodded.

-

Then, thirty minutes later, Lu Yanhe heard from Chen Mo that He Zhong had left for some reason and that the filming crew had changed.

Lu Yanhe was a little at a loss at that moment.

 There was even a hairy feeling rising from the soles of my feet.

how so?

He Zhong only reminded him about the notebook in the morning, and He Zhong left suddenly in the afternoon? Without warning - a sudden emergency at home? Obviously two hours ago, there was nothing strange about He Zhong.

Lu Yanhe had a look of confusion on his face and asked, "What's the emergency at home? The show will be recorded soon, in just a few days. Is he in such a hurry to leave?"

Chen Mo explained: "We don't know either. He didn't tell us in detail what happened. However, please don't worry. We have arranged for another photographer to follow and it will not affect the normal shooting of the show. "

“Oh.” Lu Yanhe didn’t know what else to say and nodded.

-

"What's wrong?"

 Seeing Lu Yanhe come back with a bad look on his face, Li Zhibai asked.

"Oh, it's okay. My photographer has left because of something and I have to replace him temporarily." Lu Yanhe said simply, "I'm a little depressed."

 “What’s so frustrating about this?”

"Just..." Lu Yanhe also realized that his reaction was a bit excessive. In the eyes of others, it was just a matter of following the photographer, but it seemed as if something big had happened.

 Be cautious in your words and deeds.

The four words Chen Ziyan just explained emerged from Lu Yanhe's mind.

Lu Yanhe came to his senses and said, "I think the omen is not good."

He gave a wry smile and said, "I'm a bit superstitious in this regard. After all, it's the first reality show I've recorded, but the people were changed midway through the filming."

Li Zhibai showed a bewildered expression and looked at Lu Yanhe in disbelief.

 “You actually still have such superstition?”

"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "I didn't think of it myself."

“Then I really don’t understand.” Li Zhibai said, “You think too much.”

Lu Yanhe shrugged his shoulders and asked: "Are there any activities in the afternoon?"

"I didn't say, there are no group activities." Li Zhibai said, "I have an interview later, and I can't participate in the afternoon activities."

 “What interview?”

“I shot a magazine cover and had to do a supporting interview.” Li Zhibai said.

 “Are you going to do another cover shoot this afternoon?”

“I won’t be filming in the afternoon. The filming has already been completed. I will only do interviews today.” Li Zhibai explained, “This is not happening on the same day. Have you never filmed before?”

 Lu Yanhe shook his head and said: "I have only photographed the covers of the group of seven of us at that time."

After that, Lu Yanhe never shot a single cover.

　　Before, he was not popular, and Zhou Ping'an would not give him a cover. Now that he has just become popular, he came to Lu Yanhe's magazines. They were all average and did not conform to the "it is better to lack than to overdo" policy set by Chen Ziyan for Lu Yanhe. Li Zhibai said: "Aren't there any magazines looking for you to shoot covers now? There should be many brands that like artists with a good image like you, and they should be willing to pay for you."

 Many people think that the artists who shoot magazine covers are determined by the magazine. In fact, it is not that simple. Generally speaking, a magazine cover has to be paid for by the brand. Which artist will take the photo is not only a matter for the magazine, but also needs to be recognized by the brand.

Li Zhibai said that Lu Yanhe has a good image, which means that he has a good social image and is very positive in all aspects. Asking him to wear the cooperative brand for the cover shoot is also good for the brand image. Especially Lu Yanhe is still so popular now.

Lu Yanhe shook his head: "I don't know, it's Sister Ziyan who is taking care of it. However, it may be because I've been too busy recently, so Sister Ziyan didn't help me with other jobs."

-

Lu Yanhe and Li Zhibai rarely talk about work matters.

 Generally when the conversation reaches this point, we will chat together.

While chatting, Lu Yanhe took his mobile phone and sent Chen Ziyan a message about He Zhong’s sudden departure from the program team.

Chen Ziyan replied: It's okay. I will contact He Zhong. You should act normal and don't let others think you are affected by this matter. Regardless of whether he left because there is really something at home, I will talk to him. take it easy.

Chen Ziyan immediately understood Lu Yanhe's worry and nervousness and comforted him.

Lu Yanhe thought to himself, fortunately Chen Ziyan is here.

 When it comes to this kind of thing that may have a "mastermind" behind the scenes, Lu Yanhe found that his life experience was simply not enough.

How to find He Zhong, how to talk to him, and how to get the information you want from him.

Lu Yanhe had no idea at all and could only rely on Chen Ziyan.

"But when will your next drama "Phoenix Terrace" be filmed? Has the time been set?"

After Lu Yanhe sent the message to Chen Ziyan, he came to his senses, nodded, and said: "The specific time has not been determined yet, but it will probably be shot at the end of the year, just in time for my winter vacation."

"That's pretty good. I'm still thinking about how to film if you go to school." Li Zhibai said.

“In the past few years, I have only given priority to school.” Lu Yanhe said, “I haven’t been able to film many scenes.”

Li Zhibai nodded, "If you ask me, you might as well just take some supporting roles in big productions. This way you won't need a lot of filming time and you can also accumulate acting experience."

"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded, "That's an idea."

 In fact, this is also the way in which Chen Ziyan and Lu Yanhe reached a consensus.

 In the next few years, if there is a starring role that can be filmed during the winter or summer holidays, then of course it would be best. If not, then I will take a supporting role. The premise is that if the play is good and the character is good, the supporting role does not matter.

 Chen Ziyan said: "It would be a good experience to play a supporting role in a play by a major director, just like playing in "The Golden Age."

 For an actor of Lu Yanhe's age, it is difficult for him to receive a leading male role in a top-notch production.

One is a top-level production, and there are basically no male protagonists around the age of 20. The other is that Lu Yanhe’s current acting skills and experience are not able to get such a project in the industry - after all, there is no way to carry it, unless he is hired. The great director took a liking to it.

Lu Yanhe asked Li Zhibai: "Are you planning to transform in the future?"

 “Transformation?”

 “Don’t you really like acting in idol dramas?”

"But I don't like acting in idol dramas, and there are no other dramas coming to me." Li Zhibai said, "Serious dramas can't give me some roles with room for development. I just watched it I find it boring.”

 Two people were sitting on the sofa chatting.

 In the workroom, the staff heard the two of them chatting and looked at each other.

Li Zhenzhen was also a little surprised, mainly because he didn't expect the two of them to suddenly talk about acting.

"Sometimes I can't help but be a little jealous of them." Assistant director Zheng Hesong suddenly said, "I debuted early. I am popular and famous when I am around 20 years old, and I can play the leading role. Think about this industry, there are many People in their 40s and 50s can’t play a role with a few lines.”

"Don't think they are so lucky." Li Zhenzhen said, "They also come from a **** road. They have to participate in competitions at the age of fifteen, and finally defeat the competitors and make their debut. This is just the beginning. They face all kinds of pressures, The problem is, don’t just look at the few of them who are still standing here in the end. Take a look at their group. Seven people made their way out of hundreds of people. Now there are only four people who are still in the entertainment industry. , If Lu Yanhe had not been admitted to Zhenhua on his own and fought his way out, he would have found this person long ago. "

Zheng Hesong nodded and said: "I didn't mean to belittle them, I just couldn't help but sigh at the cruelty of this industry."

"Cruelty is cruel, but reality is cruel. The audience doesn't owe anyone. They accuse idol artists of being incompetent and lacking strength, but they didn't steal or rob, and the fans are happy to pay." Chen Biqiu suddenly appeared, he smiled and said, "It's cruel, who can say it's not? But if you work in this industry, you have to follow the rules of this industry."

Zheng Hesong saw Chen Biqiu, laughed, and asked, "Director Chen, among the young people in our program, who do you like most?"

"Who am I optimistic about? It's meaningless for me to be optimistic about anyone." Chen Biqiu shook his head, "Anyway, who is popular and who is not, this is not something I can say, right? Whoever is popular, we will praise him, the audience The most important thing is that if the audience likes it, the sponsor dad will pay for it.”

 Chen Biqiu pointed at Li Zhibai and Lu Yanhe on the surveillance screen.

"What kind of transformation is not transformation? You can't just stay in the comfort zone. How many people will die if you have to toss and toss?" Chen Biqiu said, "If Li Zhibai dares to transform at this time, you think his popularity is enough for him to toss. How long? If his summer drama hadn’t brought him back, he would have shown signs of declining popularity.”

Zheng Hesong: "So this guy is lucky. He's so lucky. I don't know why he's popular, but he's only been popular for so long."

"Why can't the image of a rich young master not be popular for so long? Others have to rely on packaging. He was born with the image of a domineering president in idol dramas. The right time, place and people are right. Why do you ask him why he has been popular for so long?" Chen Biqiu said with disdain. He glanced at Zheng Hesong and said, "You might as well ask why so many female viewers like the bossy president."

Zheng and Song Dynasty became silent as soon as they were squeezed out by Chen Biqiu.

Chen Biqiu said: "If nothing else, let's just say that in terms of female fans, even if Lu Yanhe is admitted to Zhenhua, he is not as attractive as Li Zhibai. Does a child from a poor family want to be an idol? I am really not optimistic about it. He may be in the future. He can become an excellent singer or an excellent actor, but if a young idol wants to take this path, there is a high probability that it will not work.”

 Everyone in the workroom was quiet.

 What Chen Biqiu said was very straightforward, but if you think about it carefully, it does make sense.

 Idol, what kind of person can be an idol?

 No fan will weigh all kinds of things when they like an idol. They only have their first feeling and reaction.

Can’t Lu Yanhe be a high-quality idol?

 He can, but it is difficult for him to be an idol like Li Zhibai who is so enthusiastically loved by many people for no reason.

 Actually, what Chen Biqiu said is exactly what Chen Ziyan has thought about.

 Everyone has his or her own path.

Li Zhibai If Shen Xin transforms into an actor, of course he may succeed, but at least before the age of thirty, it will be difficult to achieve such an achievement as an idol artist.

If Lu Yanhe relied on the current popularity to become an idol artist, he would of course be able to continue to be popular and maintain the image of an artist with excellent grades and a good image, but he could only achieve 90% and not be the top one. Level - For idol artists, family background is not an original sin, but it can be a burden.

When an idol cannot provide fans with a perfect fantasy that is divorced from reality, the idol’s halo is destined to fade.

 While everyone was deep in thought, only Chen Mo raised the corners of his mouth lovingly, showing a disdainful smile.

Chen Mo took out his cell phone and sent a message to He Zhong: If you want to continue in this industry, just keep your mouth shut. You know, if he wants to ban you in the industry, it's just a matter of one sentence. ,Understand?

 He Zhong did not reply.

 But Chen Mo didn't care. It didn't matter that He Zhong didn't reply, as long as he saw it.

enough.

 Be it an idol or a fan, it has nothing to do with her.

 She only cares about herself. (End of chapter)
