Choose a day to become famous

"The main role in an S-class production, as long as it's not Ichiban, you choose."

The man who sat in front of Chen Ziyan at nine o'clock in the morning had some white hair on his temples, but he was still energetic and had a sense of majesty and calmness that had been on top for a long time.

The tone of his speech felt like the strong wind, and no emotion or attitude could be heard.

Chen Ziyan silently listened to the other party's words and at the same time looked at him. She came to the conclusion that the father and son were very different from each other.

If Xu Handian is an impulsive, irritable, simple and superficial idiot, Xu Bin is a middle-aged man who is as hard as iron and has a temperament that he has experienced in the army.

Chen Ziyan smiled slightly and said, "Why is Xu Tai so polite?"

"Young people don't speak secretly, Miss Zi Yan." Xu Bin said, "That's the end of the matter, how about it?"

Chen Ziyan: "Xutai, I think you also know that the key to whether the matter ends here is not me, but your son's attitude and behavior."

Xu Bin nodded, tapped his fingers on the armrests of the chair, and said, "Miss Ziyan, he won't bother you again. Don't worry about this. I have already taught him a lesson."

Chen Ziyan nodded, "In that case, I'll wait for Xu Tai to send me the script."

After sending Xu Bin away, Chen Ziyan put away the smile on her face.

As a result, before I even sat down, someone knocked on the door.

The person who came turned out to be Hong Qi.

As the executive CEO, Hong Qi basically does not appear in the company. The person in charge is Vice President Ma. Chen Ziyan has not seen Hong Qi much in the past six months.

"How come Mr. Hong is free to come to my place today?" Chen Ziyan joked with a smile.

Hong Qi smiled and said, "Director Xu Bin came to see you just now?"

"Mr. Hong is very well-informed."

"I met him at the elevator entrance." Hong Qi asked, "Is it because of the recent incident with Xu Handian?"

Chen Ziyan nodded.

"Your methods are as sharp as ever. You can hit a snake even before it's too late." Hong Qi raised his lips, "I came here today because I have something to ask you for help. I have a friend whose son wants to become a star. People have heard about it. Your name, I would like to ask you to help me. If you are willing, I would like to pay you an annual salary of 10 million, how about it? "

When Chen Ziyan heard this, she rolled her eyes and shook her head, "Not interested."

"I knew what you meant." Hong Qi said, and sat directly on the chair, put his hands on the back of the chair, looked at Chen Ziyan, and said: "After so many years, your temper has not changed at all, nor has it changed at all. Ask who he is? He can pay you tens of millions of dollars per year as soon as he opens his mouth, but he doesn’t lack money at all. He’s just such a son.”

"It's none of my business." Chen Ziyan said, "Although I don't have an annual salary of tens of millions, I don't need money that much. It's rare to stand free in life."

"Okay." Hong Qi shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "You would rather take care of Tu Song, a person with no talent, than make some money. I really don't understand, but there is nothing I can do. I can’t understand your behavior.”

"Since you know everything, why are you asking?"

"You always have to walk during cutscenes." Hong Qi smiled, "After all, the other party's surname is also Chen."

Chen Ziyan's eyes suddenly became sharper and she looked at Hong Qi.

"What did you say?"

"Chen Shen." Hong Qi waved his hand, "You should know him, Lan Yuan's boss."

Hearing this name, Chen Ziyan's sharp eyes disappeared again.

"Not interested." Chen Ziyan regained her indifferent expression, "Isn't his son studying in the United States? If he doesn't take over his family's business when he comes back, why is he in the entertainment industry?"

Hong Qi: "Young people are attracted by the colorful entertainment circle and want to have some fun. With such a son, Chen Shen is happy to make his son happy."

"When did you and Chen Shen become so familiar?"

"I bought a piece of land with him a year ago, and I just changed hands and made a fortune not long ago." Hong Qi said, "If you are not familiar with it, you can make some money together."

Chen Ziyan rolled her eyes at Hong Qi speechlessly, "When will you be able to do your job properly and take more care of this company?"

"Isn't Ma Zhongquan in good control? He doesn't dare to go against you, does he?"

"This has nothing to do with whether he is going against me or not. He has almost turned Star Entertainment into a training center for idol artists. In the future, our company is going to transform and go into idol artists, right?" Chen Ziyan said , "Now most of the artists in the company are idol artists, actors and singers all stand back, and not long ago we signed several Internet celebrities."

"What does it matter? As long as you can make money." Hong Qi said, "This era is changing, and the entertainment industry is also changing. I know that there is a chain of contempt in the entertainment industry, and idol artists are at the lower end of the chain. Now there is another network. Being popular is not as popular as an idol artist. However, we are here to run a company and do business. We want high-end people who can make money while standing up, as well as lower-class people who bend down or even kneel to make money. Your thinking is too old-school and needs to be changed. change."

Chen Ziyan: "I don't care what kind of company you want to make Star Entertainment into. I don't care whether this company lives or dies. I just want to advise you. Some people think they have caught the next trend and can take off with it. , so raise a lot of pigs, but the pigs that have not caught up with the wind will not be able to fly. Don’t end up with a situation where the tail is too big to fall off.”

Chen Ziyan has been with Xingyu for several years, but she did not join Xingyu from the beginning.

She has a superior status in Star Entertainment because she is one of the veterans of this company and because of her legendary personal relationship with the boss of the company.

She said that she didn't care whether this company lived or died. Of course, she was just talking here. It was impossible for her to not care at all.

But to be honest, Chen Ziyan's career and life were not tied to this company. If the company really collapsed, she would only feel a little sad because a company related to her life ended.

Whether Hong Qi listened or not, she just said these words.

During the daytime in Jiangzhi, Lu Yanhe followed Xin Zixing and others to eat, drink and go shopping in this city all day, and checked in many places.

But the news that he was recording a program in Jiangzhi did spread, and many people came after hearing the news. Almost every place Lu Yanhe went, there were many people following him.

Xin Zixing and his team were originally a small team, unlike the large variety show crew, who had strict security along the way.

In the end, more and more people were watching the filming.

There was no way, and several filming points had to temporarily adjust the filming plan.

"All the outdoor scenes will be shot in empty shots, and your part, Yanhe, will be shot indoors." Xin Zixing made the decision quickly.

Because of the lack of experience, everyone spent a lot of time on things like transitions.

Lu Yanhe himself felt that the schedule was a bit rushed.

In his understanding, this program should be a leisurely stroll through a city, rather than introducing various things to everyone by checking in at various places.

It's not a travel channel program.

In the afternoon, Lu Yanhe found Xin Zixing and raised his doubts.

Xin Zixing also knew that Lu Yanhe was right.

They were in a hurry along the way, and were always disturbed by onlookers. During the entire filming, she and Lu Yanhe were very disturbed, including when they were having lunch at noon, they felt deeply tired and didn't even want to talk, but they had to force themselves to talk and chat, so as not to make this meal too silent and quiet, and seem boring.

Lu Yanhe said: "Take a break first, don't worry about recording. I also feel that my state is not good. This is not acting. There is no script for me to mobilize my emotions. I need to force my spirit and state to appear on camera. I think this state is not good, and people will not want to watch it."

The reason why the first episode of Langhua has a good reputation is that they filmed the most interesting places in Langhua?

No, but everyone likes the style of leisurely wandering and exploring in the city presented in the program.

So, they didn't even make much preparations at all. Basically, they didn't know what to shoot, what to encounter, and what would happen. The film shot under this situation is liked by everyone because it is vivid, natural and real.

When shooting at that time, Lu Yanhe did not have any psychological pressure or burden. He just treated it as a very ordinary trip. He walked around wherever he went. There was no task, and he didn't think about visiting all the interesting places. He rested when he was tired, sat quietly for a while when he didn't want to talk, and talked and laughed with Xin Zixing and others when he was in the mood.

The relaxation at that time was completely different from the shooting experience today-even completely different from the shooting experience yesterday.

Lu Yanhe felt that the main reason was that they were all filming with a mission today.

Lu Yanhe found a small shop nearby and sat down, bought a popsicle, and ate it quietly.

Many people gathered around and greeted him.

Lu Yanhe responded to them with a smile.

There were still cameras filming him, but they were quite far away.

Xu Chao stood beside Chen Liang and watched Lu Yanhe with Chen Liang.

He whispered, "Brother Liang, do you want to ask those fans to leave?"

Chen Liang: "It's okay, we will be responsible for photography."

Xu Chao said.

Xin Zixing was thinking about how to proceed with the subsequent filming alone, and when he looked up, he saw that Lu Yanhe had already started chatting with the fans around him.

The sun was shining freely.

Lu Yanhe was surrounded by some people, but it didn't seem crowded or noisy, but rather harmonious.

Some people took pictures of him with their mobile phones, and some just looked at him.

Lu Yanhe didn't resist, and chatted with everyone with a smile.

"How old are you?" Lu Yanhe asked a girl with a ponytail.

"Seventeen." The girl said.

"Senior year?"

"Yes, I'll be in senior year as soon as school starts." The girl smiled, her eyes curved like a crescent moon. She looked very ordinary, but the bright smile on her face was as clear as a stream.

Lu Yanhe asked: "Why don't you study hard? Why do you keep following me?"

The girl said: "I like you very much. It's rare for you to come to Jiangzhi. I want to see you today. I usually work hard."

"You'd better not lie to me." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.

"I didn't lie to you. I'm serious." The girl said seriously.

...

Lu Yanhe rested for more than 20 minutes.

Xin Zixing came to him at this time.

The two got in the car and talked in the car.

Chen Liang asked if he wanted to take the camera in the car.

He heard the whole conversation between Lu Yanhe and Xin Zixing just now, and knew that the two of them were talking about how to shoot later.

Xin Zixing thought about it and said: "No need."

There were only two of them in the car.

Xin Zixing said: "Yanhe, I just thought about it carefully, I think what you said is right, I plan to take my time for the rest of the trip, you can see where you want to go, we will follow you according to your wishes, you can do whatever you feel comfortable with."

Lu Yanhe: "That's not necessary, I have no objection to your arrangement, I just think we should not do it like before, just follow the schedule and take classes at the same time, I felt very comfortable in the half hour break just now, especially when chatting with everyone, I think that kind of content will be put into the program, because it is not arranged in advance, it just happens naturally."

Just now, when Xin Zixing saw Lu Yanhe talking and laughing with the fans around him, she actually felt that scene was what "City Travel Notes" hoped to show.

"City Travel Notes" is not only about the city, but also about the relationship between people and cities, and cities and people. The city will eventually fall on people.

Xin Zixing suddenly realized at that moment why both she and Lu Yanhe were not good at shooting before, because the previous shooting only had locations and tasks, no interaction between people, and no feelings behind humanities.

-

The lantern-stepping activity is held at night.

After Lu Yanhe talked with Xin Zixing, the filming of the program changed.

Their subsequent itinerary routes were cancelled, and they decided to wait slowly until the evening came.

It's also good to be a little leisurely.

Lu Yanhe invited everyone to go to a nearby teahouse for tea. One person was in a fixed position, and one was carried by the photographer. Everyone sat together.

There were locals all around.

Lu Yanhe and Xin Zixing sat together.

Xin Zixing was the only person who often appeared on camera with Lu Yanhe.

Many people came into the teahouse to watch the people taking pictures. The owner of the teahouse was stunned, and a happy expression appeared on his face. He was excited and happy about the sudden good business.

Lu Yanhe looked at the young men and women around him, and suddenly remembered the "lantern stepping" tonight, and asked curiously: "Will you participate in the "lantern stepping" activity tonight?"

The young people next to him looked at each other when asked by Lu Yanhe. The extroverted one had already answered, saying: "The person I like doesn't like me, what's the point of participating."

"That's right." Another person also sighed, "Last year I gave a lantern to the boy I liked, but he refused to accept it. It was so embarrassing."

"Now only those who like each other but are embarrassed to express their feelings will go out with lanterns on this day."

Several people talked to each other, and their words showed that they didn't intend to participate in this activity.

Lu Yanhe was surprised and said: "Don't you say that most young people in Jiangzhi will participate?"

"That's those who haven't been in love yet. I'm 27 years old, how can I expect this." A woman with sunglasses pushed up on her head and delicate makeup said.

"Then why did you ask for leave today?" A girl next to her who seemed to be her friend asked immediately.

"I, I haven't come back to see my parents for a while, so I came back to see them."

"You're kidding, you must have heard that Liu Ziyang came back from abroad, so you came back specifically, right?"

The sunglasses sister's expression instantly lost control, she looked at her friend in disbelief, and directly reached out to cover her mouth.

This scene made everyone around laugh.

Lu Yanhe also laughed.

OK, this is simply saying one thing and thinking another.

At this moment, Xin Zixing said with surprise: "He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi agreed to come together tonight."

Lu Yanhe heard this and laughed in surprise.

"Are they willing?"

"Yes." Xin Zixing nodded, "We have also prepared a few lanterns, and we will carry lanterns together when the time comes, just in time."

Lu Yanhe imagined the scene that would appear in the evening and said, "I am looking forward to Jiang Zhi tonight."

-

In the evening, it was another dusk with dusk and sunset clouds like satin.

He Yunlan and Liu Yiyi met everyone at a restaurant.

He Yunlan was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, and looked like he had just finished work and rushed here.

But Xiao Mei immediately sighed: "Oh my god, men in white shirts are indeed much more handsome than usual."

Lu Yanhe turned his head and looked at Xiao Mei, a little surprised that she dared to say anything, without the reserve of ordinary girls.

Everyone sat together to eat again.

"Where did you go in Jiangzhi today?" He Yunlan asked with a smile.

Xin Zixing said: "We went to Baigan Tower and Mother and Child Bridge, had lunch at Dongzi Street, and walked around Chunxi Road in the afternoon."

Lu Yanhe said: "It's very livable here, the food is delicious, and the city feels very leisurely. Everyone is not in a hurry."

He Yunlan nodded and said: "Indeed, we have a lot of delicious food here. We originally wanted to invite you to our house and we would cook a table of authentic Jiangzhi home-cooked dishes for you, but your schedule is quite busy. Please come again next time if you have a chance."

Lu Yanhe's eyes lit up instantly when he heard this.

"Ah? I want to eat!"

Liu Yiyi asked: "When are you leaving tomorrow? I heard from Yunlan that you are leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, I have another job the day after tomorrow, so I have to hurry back." Lu Yanhe said helplessly.

"I can only find a chance next time." He Yunlan said.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

-

At eight o'clock in the evening, Lu Yanhe went out with the lanterns prepared by Xin Zixing and others.

When he went out, Lu Yanhe found that the whole city had changed greatly from the daytime.

Under the cover of night, people walking on the road with lanterns in their hands can be seen everywhere, and they are basically young people.

Not only that, many people changed into ancient costumes, some were ethnic minority costumes, and some were Hanfu. In an instant, looking up, they were graceful.

When everyone saw the camera, they waved and greeted the camera happily.

Compared with traveling alone, more people went in pairs, a few people in a group, talking and laughing, looking like classmates or friends.

Lu Yanhe walked among them, silent for a long time.

He was shocked by the scenes in front of him.

Especially the expressions on everyone's faces that were intertwined with tension and expectation, so immature, and so clear.

Lu Yanhe wondered if his face also showed the same immaturity? (End of this chapter)
