Male supporting role is not a stepping stone
Chapter 81 The Unlucky Movie Star 1 (1/2)
After instructing his assistant to inform his agent to reject the role, Yang Yan thought he would receive a call from her soon. However, his phone did not ring until he returned to the original owner's large flat. However, he soon understood the reason, because only an hour later, Sister Jiang came to visit him in person. It seemed that she took this matter more seriously than he thought.
"I heard from Le Shan that you suddenly changed your mind and did not plan to participate in Director Zhang's "Twins". What's the matter? Didn't you ask me to help you get this role before?"
Agent Sister Jiang is in her forties, with a neat short hair. She always has a stern face, giving people a sense of indifference. In fact, she is not a bad person. During the days when the original owner was down and out, she was one of the few people who were willing to help him.
"I'm just a little tired," Yang Yan said, leaning back on the sofa cushions in a relaxed posture, spreading his hands, "I've been running like a wheel for the past eight years, without even a day off. My contract with the company is about to expire, so I want to take this opportunity to take a break."
"Have you made up your mind? Don't you plan to renew the contract?" Sister Jiang keenly sensed his meaning from his words.
"Since Bai Jiang is not sincere, I don't think there is any need to talk about it anymore." Yang Yan didn't hide it from her and admitted it directly.
"Then what are your plans next?" Sister Jiang didn't persuade him. This time, Bai Jiang's people did too much. They just used the favor of making him famous to pressure him, but were unwilling to give up a little benefit.
In fact, Qu Yangyan's success today depends more on himself. The resources are basically because he is a person who takes the initiative to find him. The help provided by Bai Jiang is limited.
"I'll take a break for a while, but I should set up my own company by then. If Sister Jiang thinks highly of me, maybe we can continue to cooperate." Yang Yan threw an olive branch to her.
"Let me think about it." To be honest, Sister Jiang was a little tempted, but at her age, she had to weigh a lot of things and couldn't make a decision right away.
"Okay," Yang Yan said straightforwardly, "Then I'll wait for your reply, Sister Jiang. We'll still be friends no matter what."
"Of course," Sister Jiang smiled and reminded him, "But if the people in Baijiang find out your intentions, I'm afraid they won't let you do what you want easily."
She had been in this company longer than him, so she was naturally very clear about the nature of the company's managers. If they saw that there was no hope of renewing the contract, they would definitely try their best to squeeze out the last drop of surplus value from him.
"If the enemy comes, the general will fight, and if the water comes, the earth will cover it!" Yang Yan replied indifferently.
Although he had an agency contract with Baijiang, it was not impossible for him to terminate the contract in advance, but there were only three months left in the contract, and he didn't want to bother too much, but if some people treated him as a bully and went too far, he didn't mind letting them see his methods.
After sending Sister Jiang away, Yang Yan asked his assistant Yu Leshan to book him a flight to S City, intending to go back to visit the original owner's parents.
The thing that Qu Yangyan regretted most in his life was that he easily broke up with his parents when he was young and frivolous. Later, he never went back home because of his face. He only repented before the death, but it was too late.
This was the regret he wanted to make up for the most, so Yang Yan put it at the top of the list. However, although the matter was settled, he could not go immediately because the original owner had several notices.
Not wanting to ruin his reputation, Yang Yan used his free time in the afternoon and evening to carefully study his memory and integrate his acting skills. The next morning, he got into the car of his assistant Xiao Yu with full confidence and soon arrived at the set.
The original owner's position destined him to be the focus wherever he went. As soon as the two got off the car, they attracted a low cry. Yang Yan smiled lightly and decently as in his memory, nodded gently to the fans outside the set, and walked in quickly while they were stunned by his smile.
Seeing that he was not polite, the bearded director Lu waved his hand and said, "Xiao Qu is here, go put on makeup first!"
Yang Yan did not think that he was neglected. Director Lu was the director of the first play when the original owner just debuted. The two have always had a good relationship over the years. They have provided help to each other and have been friends in private for a long time. There is no need to be polite.
He nodded and followed the guidance of the stagehand to the dressing room.
This is a costume drama. The original owner is a guest star in it. He plays an emperor who is almost a backboard. He doesn't have much time to appear. Because the schedule can be arranged and the invitation is an old friend, he will take it.
It takes a lot of time to put on makeup for costume dramas. While the makeup artist was tossing on his head, Yang Yan closed his eyes and recalled the script. When he put on makeup and put on special clothes and walked out of the dressing room, the expression on his face changed, just like the emperor in the play.
"Hiss——"
The people who happened to see this scene on the set made surprise noises one after another. Director Lu was attracted by the reactions of the crowd and turned his head. He was immediately happy: "Good job, Xiao Qu, your acting skills have improved a lot."
After saying that, he gave him a thumbs up.
Yang Yan didn't say anything, but glanced at him casually. A domineering aura rushed over him. Director Lu, who thought he had seen many big scenes, almost couldn't hold on and his legs softened and he knelt down.
He rubbed the goose bumps on his arms. Instead of being angry, he was happy. He said several "good" words and said happily: "Xiao Qu, keep this state. Let's shoot the scene where the hero returns to Beijing after being defeated and meets Emperor Tianrui first!"
Yang Yan, who had really been an emperor, did not need any guidance at all. He played the villain emperor in the movie vividly. At the beginning, he had to NG several times because he did not pay attention to the camera. After getting used to it, his scenes were basically passed in one go.
However, when it came to the rival scenes, various mistakes were inevitable. It took a whole day to finish the scenes of just a few minutes, and it was not until late at night that he could finish the work.
When he got on the car for the return trip, Yang Yan's mental and physical state was a bit overwhelmed, and he couldn't help but sigh that being an actor is not easy.
"Brother Yan, how about I notify them to go later for tomorrow's advertising shoot?" Yu Leshan saw him rubbing his eyebrows tiredly, and couldn't help asking worriedly.
"No need," Yang Yan shook his head, "finish the shooting early and go home early."
Yu Leshan knew that he had always been dedicated to his work, so he didn't persuade him anymore. He sent him all the way to the door of his house and left with peace of mind.
Yang Yan was not showing off. Although there was no spiritual energy in this world and it was impossible to practice internal strength, some Qi-nourishing skills could still be used.
After a night of breathing, he was full of energy again when another assistant came to pick him up at five in the morning of the next day.
The shooting of this advertisement was still very smooth. For him, who was born in a wealthy family and built his own business empire, playing the role of a wealthy tycoon was as easy as breathing and drinking water.
When he walked out of the extended back seat of the car with a slight lean, he instantly gave people a feeling that only such a car could match his status.
The public service advertisement on the third day was not difficult for him. From the ignorant teenager, to the young and energetic youth, to the middle-aged man who was bent by life, and finally returned to the peaceful old age.
He was able to do every period easily, and there was no sense of disobedience in the middle, as if these short shots had really recorded his life.
Not to mention the praise from his collaborators, after finishing the day's work, Yang Yan finally rushed to the airport and boarded the plane to S City.
Because he had made perfect preparations in advance, he was lucky enough not to be discovered. He followed the original owner's memory all the way back to the community where his home was, but he could not enter the gate of the community.
Qu Yangyan's parents are both middle school teachers. They live in a school-funded house. The facilities are not as complete as those in high-end communities, but the access control is very strict.
The security guard saw that he was wearing a baseball cap, a mask and sunglasses, and he was covered tightly, not looking like a good person, so he stopped him.
"Uncle, my home is inside, No. 1, Unit 1, Building 3, Floor 3, Qu Changhe's home, you can find out if you check it out, I'm not a bad person." Others were also serious and responsible, and Yang Yan had to patiently explain.
"I know the old Qu family, but I haven't seen you before," the security guard looked at him vigilantly, "Who are you and what is your purpose here?"
Since Yang Yan was back, he knew that his whereabouts would definitely not be hidden. After all, he couldn't stay at home all the time without going out to see people. Just as he was about to reveal his identity, the security guard was already excited.
"You are also a reporter, right? Great, you actually found out the name and address of our school teacher and tried to get in!" He yelled at the top of his voice, "I told you that Brother Wang was wrong to beat that little bastard, but you still scold him online all day long. What kind of immoral thing is this!"
Yang Yan was a little confused. He was just going home, why did he talk about Brother Wang and reporters?
It was almost five o'clock at this time, and people started to go home after work.
The security uncle's voice was too loud. Before he could react, a group of people had already surrounded him and pointed at him.
In the buzzing sound, only "beating", "teacher", "unlucky", "reporter", "rumor" and so on could be vaguely heard. What exactly happened was that there were too many people talking, so it was impossible to hear clearly.
However, the disgust in everyone's eyes was clearly visible. Yang Yan had no choice but to pull down his mask, sunglasses, and hat, and surrender: "I'm not a reporter. I just came here to go home today. Aunt Zhang, I'm Xiao Yan, don't you recognize me?"
The original owner was already 18 years old when he left home. Although his temperament has changed a lot over the years, his face has not changed much. Aunt Zhang, who was called by his name, was not old and had no blurred vision, and recognized him immediately.
"It's really Xiao Yan!" Aunt Zhang came up excitedly, "Aren't you a big star in Beijing? I heard you were very busy, why did you suddenly come back?"
Before he answered, she turned around and shouted to everyone: "Don't make a fuss here, Xiao Yan is not a reporter, she is a big star, the one from the old Qu family, do you remember?"
Qu Yangyan has been famous all over the country in recent years. That face appears on the TV screen every once in a while, and almost everyone present has seen it.
When he first showed his face, everyone just thought he looked familiar, and didn't think about it in that direction. They were immediately excited by her saying this.
"Remember, remember, Qu Yangyan from the old Qu family! It's rare for a big star to come out of our place, how could I not remember him?"
"Xiao Yan, please sign for me, my granddaughter loves you so much!"
"Sign for me too, my daughter likes watching your dramas the most!"
"And me, and me, you played the teacher so well, it touched my heart!"
...
In the end, Yang Yan was unable to enter the community and was pushed by the guard to the sidewalk outside the gate to sign autographs for everyone. She thought that this place was not located in a busy city and there were not many residents around it, so it would not take long for her to finish signing. .
But he soon realized that he had misjudged the influence of the original owner. After getting his signature, many people called their relatives and friends. They heard that a large group of people were on the way, and their skills were already a little bit... He was so sore that his eyes suddenly turned dark.
If this continues, I'm afraid I will have to cross the road tonight. Yang Yan feels bitter in his heart, but who told him to be overconfident and refuse the assistant's proposal to accompany them and give them a big holiday?
Just when he was feeling a little desperate, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure. Although he hadn't seen her in nearly ten years and her face had become weathered, Yang Yan still matched her with the person in the original owner's memory. Number.
Qu's mother didn't know that her son was back yet. She glanced curiously at the crowd at the gate. When someone said he was a celebrity, she shook her head uninterestedly and walked into the gate of the community.
There is also a big star in her family, what's so surprising?
"mom!"
While Qu's mother was thinking this, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind her. She froze for a moment before turning back and looking at that very familiar face in disbelief.
A wave of heat suddenly rushed to her eyes. She watched her son running towards her with tears in her eyes. She subconsciously opened her arms. She didn't want to wait for someone to run up to her, but instead of hugging her, she held her hand. The hand fell and fled.
Until the two of them ran back to the house hand in hand and closed the door again, Qu's mother was still a little confused.
At this time, Yang Yan suddenly leaned over, hugged her with open hands, and whispered in her ear: "Mom, I'm back, I'm sorry."
I'm sorry, I was too willful and didn't understand your hard work; I'm sorry, I didn't dare to go home for so many years.
This is what the original owner has always wanted to say to his parents and what he has always wanted to do, but because he could not lose face and was timid about being close to home, he finally put it off again and again until he died unexpectedly, regretting it for the rest of his life.
Yang Yan doesn't have that much psychological baggage, so he can easily express what's in his heart, and he can barely make up for some regrets!
Qu's mother froze immediately, the tears in her eyes welled up again, her lips were trembling and she couldn't speak. She could only hold his back with her backhand and pat him gently.
Yang Yan stood quietly waiting for her to calm down. It didn't take long. Qu's mother wiped away her tears and avoided his sight with some embarrassment, then turned and walked into the kitchen.
In order to cover up the embarrassment of crying in front of her child, she complained: "You kid, you don't even know to call in advance when you come back. There is nothing at home. It's already dinner time. You must be starving, right?" "
Then he started to wash the pot and collect water, "Mom, let's cook you a bowl of noodles first, and let's buy delicious food for you tomorrow!"
"I just want to eat the noodles cooked by my mother. They are more delicious than any delicacies from the mountains and seas." Yang Yan was not shy about sweet words.
"Glib tongue!" Qu's mother cursed, but the smile on her face revealed her inner feelings.
"By the way, where's dad? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Qu's mother had already put the pot on the stove and lit the fire. Her fingers trembled slightly when she heard his words. She looked back at him with some anxiety in her eyes: "Well, Xiao Yan! Mom wants to tell you something, don't be angry. !”
"Are you divorced?" Yang Yan was suddenly shocked.
"You kid, why don't you want to be better?" Qu's mother was a little helpless, "Your dad and I are getting along well! That's it, isn't this great, so..."
She coughed lightly, and finally said her heart out quickly: "We have given you a little sister, who is already eight years old!"
This news did surprise Yang Yan, but he was only surprised and did not find it difficult to accept it as Qu's mother feared.
Qu's father and Qu's mother got married early. Qu's mother is only 49 years old this year, and Qu's father is only 52 years old. Some children who give birth late may have their first child no more than two years older than his sister.
They are in good health, have stable jobs, and have a decent income. Their son has grown up and they don’t need to worry about it. If they have another child under such circumstances, even the original owner has no reason to be angry, not to mention that his son is still a fake. Woolen cloth!
The only thing that can be said is that they didn't tell the original owner about this, but it has been ten years since he left. Over the years, he has been holding his breath and rarely made a phone call, let alone returned home.
He himself did something wrong first, and he really has no position to accuse him.
Yang Yan was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly softened when he saw Qu's mother standing there at a loss. She was obviously a majestic teacher in the eyes of the children, but at this moment, she was like a child who had done something wrong.
"I thought you and dad were having a conflict over me!" He laughed, "Fortunately not, it turns out I already have a sister. Does she look like me?"
"Like, like!" Qu's mother saw that he reacted well, and the anxiety in her heart immediately disappeared. "Everyone said that he looked very much like you when you were a child!"
"If you look like me, she must be very beautiful." Yang Yan showed a narcissistic expression.
Qu's mother was amused by him: "Yes, she is as beautiful as you. In a while, Mengmeng will leave the hobby class. Go and see for yourself!"
"My sister's name is Mengmeng," Yang Yan said exaggeratedly, "This name is really cute, but I didn't know before. If I didn't prepare a gift for her, would she not like me as a brother?"
Qu's mother smiled from ear to ear: "Don't worry, she has been talking about you, the big star brother, for a long time. She must be very happy to see you and can't think of any gifts at all."
The noodles were soon served on the table. The mother and son sat opposite each other with a bowl each. Yang Yan suddenly remembered what happened at the gate of the community before, so he asked the security guard what the "Brother Wang" and "Reporter" were.
Speaking of this, Qu's mother sighed: "Xiao Wang is the husband of Teacher Zuo in our school. They are both unlucky."
It turned out that just a few days ago, Teacher Zuo and her husband went to the swimming pool to swim, where they met a little boy in his teens. The child didn't know whether it was out of curiosity or something, but he actually touched her buttocks.
Teacher Zuo was very angry at the time, and immediately reprimanded him loudly and asked him to apologize, but the boy not only refused to apologize, but also spit at her and insulted her.
Her husband was so angry that he rushed up and pressed the boy into the water and slapped him.
Soon the boy's parents heard the news and beat Xiao Wang.
Later, the incident was brought to the police station. After the police mediated, Xiao Wang apologized to the little boy. After all, he had done something wrong, and as an adult, he would always be criticized more.
It stands to reason that the matter should have ended here, but the boy's family felt that he was still wronged, so they went to the two people's units and asked them to punish them.
They also cut off the beginning and end of the video recording what happened in the swimming pool, leaving only the part where Xiao Wang beat the little boy and posted it online, guiding public opinion to attack the two.
Xiao Wang is a civil servant, and Teacher Zuo works at the school. Their real names, work units, photos and even phone numbers were posted online, and there were labels such as "civil servants" and "teachers", which attracted a lot of attention.
This matter has been a hot topic online in the past few days. The two have been harassed frequently, and they can't go to class for the time being, so they can only stay at home to avoid disaster.
But even so, some people who do good things can't escape. Before, reporters ran to their house to try to interview them, so the security uncle would check the people coming and going more strictly.
It turned out to be a cyberbullying incident!
Yang Yan had just finished listening to the whole story and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a scream from outside: "Teacher Zuo committed suicide! Call an ambulance!"
The mother and son looked at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes. They put down their bowls and chopsticks and hurried out together.
There is no underground parking lot in the community. All the cars of each family are parked in the parking spaces marked next to the green belt. At this time, a large group of people were surrounding a car, and the heart-wrenching cries of a man and a child came from inside.
"Why are you so depressed?"
"So pitiful!"
"It's all an unprovoked disaster."
"You can get through any hurdle. Why doesn't Xiao Zuo think about the child?"
"The child's parents are too much. They act like this and they are not afraid of corrupting their children!"
...
People around were talking about it and expressed sympathy for the family of three, but they could do nothing to help. They had also left a message under the post to explain the truth, but they were instead questioned about the whole family and were finally sprayed so hard that they dared not show their heads.
Fortunately, this place is not far from the hospital, and the ambulance came quickly. Teacher Zuo was lifted into the car and taken to the hospital for emergency treatment, but it is still unknown whether he can be saved.
"Teacher Zuo's family is really miserable," watching the ambulance go away, Qu's mother sighed and suddenly asked, "Xiao Yan, you are a big star, is there any way to help them?"
