You've passed the college entrance examination, but can't you make it in the entertainment

Before LeYan came to New York Fashion Week, the entire domestic entertainment industry's coverage of the fashion week was lukewarm, completely unlike the grand occasion of previous years.

The media are not stupid. If there are topics with more traffic, they will not waste time and energy on topics that are not so effective.

The current traffic password is LeYan!

What fashion week are you writing about?
But LeYan's unexpected appearance in New York brought the fire to the Fashion Week.

With acting skills, stories, good looks and fashion taste, the most popular artist in the domestic entertainment industry this year is none other than Le Yan!
It's not an exaggeration to call this year the 'Year of Le Yan', right?
How could such a popular artist not appear on the Spring Festival Gala stage?
Le Yan also has some Spring Festival Gala obsession.

When I went to Li Yiran's home to celebrate the New Year last year, he said that being able to perform on the Spring Festival Gala is the greatest affirmation of an artist's performance that year.

He also advised Li Yiran to let go of his obsession with singing live or not and to find a way to participate. It would be even better if he, a rookie, could take him along to show his face.

Unexpectedly, he became unexpectedly popular this year, shined at two international film festivals within a year, and also proved his worth in the fashion field. He received an invitation from the Spring Festival Gala program team before leaving Lens.

The theme and framework of this year's Spring Festival Gala have been finalized, and the program team has invited Le Yan and Li Yiran to participate in the singing program.

Li Yiran receives invitations every year, but she is rather indifferent to the Spring Festival Gala and doesn’t care whether she can perform on it or not. However, she couldn’t resist Le Yan’s constant persuasion and finally agreed to perform with him.

Friends who have watched the Spring Festival Gala should know that more than 95% of the singing programs in the Spring Festival Gala are choruses, and large choruses. Three people on the same stage are considered rare, and a group of 6 or 8 people is very common.

Artists have very little say in the program arrangements. Basically, they just follow the program team's arrangements, because it is already very difficult to get on the Spring Festival Gala.

There are many examples of performances that involved 5 or 6 rounds of rehearsals but were ultimately cut.

Le Yan and Li Yiran are both new faces in the Spring Festival Gala and are not that familiar with the program team, so they naturally dare not raise any opinions. After replying that they would participate, they waited obediently for arrangements.

But when Ye Xinchun found out about this, she was no longer so easy to talk to.

Le Yan returned to Kyoto and immediately went to the company to pay his respects to Mr. Buddha.

This time he left Kyoto for filming, attending a film festival, and going to a fashion week. He hadn't seen Ye Xinchun for almost four months. Although he knew that Ye Xinchun didn't like to receive gifts, he still came to the company with many gifts.

No matter whether you want it or not, I’ve sent you my friendship!
Le Yan was ready to engage in verbal battles and Tai Chi and Bagua with Ye Xinchun, but Ye Xinchun watched Le Yan put down the gifts one by one without saying anything.

After Le Yan had introduced each gift, she spoke:
"Come out for dinner with me tonight."

Le Yan was stunned.

He thought his boss was going to teach him a lesson again, but he didn't expect it to just pass like that?
However, not blocking is a good thing!

That means Ye Xinchun doesn't mind whether Le Yan is flattering her or not.

That night, Ye Xinchun brought Le Yan to a business restaurant with ordinary surroundings and met a few people of ordinary looks.

After a few pleasantries, Ye Xinchun began to get to the point:
"Le Yan and Li Yiran are very popular. Is it okay for them to sing a duet?"

A middle-aged man with a big belly at the table laughed and joked:

"Mr. Ye, do you have to worry about the program list? Don't worry about the following trivial matters. Come on, have a drink."

As he spoke he raised his glass.

Ye Xinchun stood motionless with her arms folded across her chest, staring at him:

"I can take care of other things."

She patted Le Yan's arm, who was sitting next to her, and said firmly:
"It's his business. I can't sleep no matter what."

The middle-aged man with a big belly laughed twice:
"Okay, okay, let's sing in chorus. That's it!"

After hearing the other side's agreement, Ye Xinchun raised his glass and clinked glasses with these people one by one:

"Thank you very much."

Ye Xinchun never introduced the identities of the people opposite to Le Yan, nor did he tell him what they did, but Le Yan had already guessed it.

These are Ye Xinchun’s “trump cards”!
Although it was just the tip of the iceberg, he finally touched it!!
Le Yan also stood up with his wine glass in hand and said respectfully:

"Thank you all for your hard work. "Comrades: Almost a Love Story" will be aired on TV in a few months. Thank you for your support."

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Ye Xinchun looked at Le Yan calmly with a smile on his face.

You can
Are you using the connection I just introduced to you now?

You really don't treat me as an outsider.

But Ye Xinchun thought about it soon. She didn't seem to treat Le Yan as an outsider anymore. She drank the tea delivered in the morning in the afternoon.

She smiled and shook her head.

Why ponder these things?
Is the work not tiring enough or what?
With the support of Ye Xinchun, Le Yan and Li Yiran had their own chorus program on the Spring Festival Gala.

This made the whole team very excited, this is a very significant endorsement!

While preparing for the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal, Le Yan also did another important thing.

After returning to Kyoto, he joined the preparations for Peng Yiwei's new film. Together with Bao Bin, Ge Man and others, after many rounds of study and discussion, they finally determined the time range for the start of the film.

"Then the filming will tentatively start in April next year?"

Peng Yiwei has no temper at all now.

In the past, it took at least a year, and at most two or three years, to prepare a movie.

He was only given two months to prepare for the last movie, and this time the preparation time is only half a year at most. He is really going backwards as he gets older.

"You are finally on the right path!" Le Yan raised his arms and shouted, "It has been proven that the more time you are given, the further you are from success. Believe me, you will succeed again this time!"

Ge Man also smiled and comforted:

"Too much is as bad as too little. Having aspirations but not pursuing them to the extreme may be the best. I think the time to start shooting is very good, and it gives you enough time to prepare."

She coaxed Peng Yiwei in an encouraging tone and continued:
"The shooting cycle must also maintain this style, and strive for the top four. Although we will give you four months, you should try to compress it to three months. The previous state of shooting for more than a year is really too tiring. You should consider me. I am old and cannot accept such high-intensity work."

In this movie, Ge Man is here to 'accompany the prince to study'.

From planning to implementation, the entire movie was arranged by the superstar around Le Yan. She didn't want to and couldn't steal the limelight from Le Yan, so she played a supporting role with more lines.

"You are still young, don't say that." Bao Bin couldn't bear to hear Ge Man say that he was old.

He is several years older than Ge Man. You are old, so what am I?
Ge Man used her mouth to point in Le Yan's direction:
"It's his world from now on."

This kid is amazing!
He became Peng Yiwei's leading man in his early twenties.

She was already over 30 when she first played the leading lady of Peng Yiwei.
Bao Bin smiled kindly at Le Yan, then suddenly frowned and asked, "What did you think of?"
"Old Deng still doesn't agree to come?"

They also sent invitations to Deng Xuefeng for several recent internal study sessions, but he never came once.

They are all getting older and have fewer opportunities to work with friends.

There are so many people here this time, why can't Deng Xuefeng put aside his prejudices and give it a try?

Were all the thanks at the award ceremony fake?

Le Yan sighed helplessly: "I have advised him many times, but he just won't come."

Geman asked:

"Is he still available during that time period?"

Everyone here has reserved their schedule in advance for this movie.

Deng Xuefeng is now a hot commodity in the film industry and receives no shortage of invitations.

Could it be that his schedule has been released?
Le Yan shook his head:

"After winning the award, Teacher Deng has become more cautious in choosing scripts. We are discussing a few good ones, but we haven't confirmed any yet."

Le Yan is Deng Xuefeng's "boss" and he knows everything about his employee Xiao Deng.

He is picking his feet at home!
Deng Xuefeng's more rigorous script selection is only one of the reasons why his schedule is vacant. The second reason is that his previous pay was too low. Ni Zhen and Zhang Yan are re-evaluating the most appropriate quotation range for him and need to be exposed to several projects before they can decide.

He is now the "uncle circle's favorite" in the entertainment industry. Scarcity makes things valuable, and it is not excessive to ask for 18 million for a movie. Le Yan even thinks that he can ask for 20 million.

Deng Xuefeng knew that the team wanted to raise his price but he did not stop them.

Before the money even entered his pocket, his lavish spending habits came back. He told Le Yan that he would pay for the wedding house with Li Yiran.

Le Yan told him, you should think about your wedding house first, don’t think about me. Old Deng was so angry that he didn’t talk to him for three days.

The thoughts were pulled back.

Everyone knows Deng Xuefeng's character very well, and it seems that it will be difficult to get him to join the group this time.

Only Peng Yiwei scratched his ear with his little finger indifferently:

"Don't worry, he will come."

"Are you sure? We've been trying to persuade him for so long but he still hasn't come."

"He doesn't seem to be joking. Now he won't answer my calls."

Peng Yiwei blew on his fingers, grinned obscenely and said:
"Just wait. By the Spring Festival at the latest, he will definitely find a 'reason' to join the group."

There are still some days before the Spring Festival, and it will take some time to verify whether Peng Yiwei can maintain the title of "the first person who understands Deng Xuefeng".

During this period, Le Yan and Li Yiran were preparing for the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala, while "writing" new songs based on the melody in their heads. When they had time, they also remembered Deng Xuefeng's important life event.

We are all gathered in Kyoto again!

Can blind dating start again?
It’s not Le Yan’s fault that he is so stubborn. There are only a few women around him who are about the same age as Deng Xuefeng.

It is definitely impossible for Zhang Yan to do that. She has recently fallen in love with a foreign old man and they are in a hot relationship.

Can’t we assign the cleaning lady to Deng Xuefeng?

The wealthy woman Ye Xinchun is the only choice!

Le Yan found out that Ye Xinchun is 6 years older than Deng Xuefeng. A woman who is three years older than a man will bring him gold bricks, a woman who is thirty years older than a man will give him the kingdom, a woman who is three hundred years older than a man will give him elixirs, and a woman who is three thousand years older than a man will be among the immortals.

Six years old!

Two big gold bricks, one fifth of the country!
Perfect match!!
Le Yan would go to the company whenever he had nothing to do to ask about Ye Xinchun's well-being. On days when she didn't have to go out for social events, he would "filially" invite her out for dinner.

It would be boring for just two people to eat together, so it would be natural to bring Li Yiran and Deng Xuefeng along, it would be more lively with more people!
Ye Xinchun also gave face to Le Yan.

I can get your face two or three times out of ten, and this creates several more opportunities to meet.

The honest Deng Xuefeng could not see Le Yan's good intentions, and the shrewd Ye Xinchun could not imagine that Le Yan was so bold as to set his sights on her.

At every dinner party, Deng Xuefeng ate and drank by himself, while Ye Xinchun and Li Yiran got together. After meeting several times, the two were still just acquaintances.

Le Yan is anxious.

This won't work. The progress is too slow.

Wait a minute, he and Li Yiran's son will call Deng Xuefeng and Ye Xinchun's son "brother", wouldn't that be a mess?

"You can hold your liquor well, so cooperate with me tonight, let's get them drunk and make it a done deal."

Le Yan only drinks a handful of times a year, and each time he drinks on the edge of a knife.

Tonight is the day when the sword is unsheathed!
Li Yiran didn't understand Le Yan's idea of ​​bringing Deng Xuefeng and Ye Xinchun together, but she chose to support him. In addition to supporting him, she also expressed some opinions:
“They are simply not suitable.”

"Inappropriate? What's inappropriate?" asked Mu Mu Da in confusion.

Both of them are elders, Li Yiran tried hard to choose his words carefully:
"Mr. Deng is a bit introverted, so he's suitable for someone who can tolerate his stubbornness and has a sense of humor; Ms. Ye is very strong, so she's suitable for a 'little man'. Your pairing is a bit off."

Li Yiran simply couldn't imagine these two people together.

Sorry, that's too abstract.

But Le Yan was very dismissive of this:
"How will you know if you don't try?"

Just give it a try, it’s free anyway.

Deng Xuefeng had never been on guard against Le Yan and Li Yiran, and Ye Xinchun also felt the existence of family affection after many private contacts with Le Yan.

Taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, Le Yan and Li Yiran teamed up to get them both drunk.

However, the reactions of these two people after drinking too much made the planner Le Yan feel a little amused and helpless.

Deng Xuefeng held Le Yan tightly in his arms and was reluctant to let go.

One moment she said she would give him money, the next moment she said she would give him a house, and she was just short of hugging his neck and calling him baby and giving him a kiss.

On the other side, Ye Xinchun also showed an attitude of "I regret that we met too late" towards Li Yiran. He patted the back of Li Yiran's hand and kept saying, "I wish I had met you earlier."

These two people are like like poles repelling each other, they are not attracted to each other at all, and instead they stick to people they shouldn't stick to.

Le Yan and Li Yiran had no choice but to temporarily stop their plan and send them both away.

Deng Xuefeng was sent back by Ni Zhen. Since he didn't know Ye Xinchun's home address, he had to wait for someone to pick her up.

Soon, a luxury nanny car stopped in front of Ye Xinchun.

Ye Xinchun said goodbye to the two of them, opened the door and got into the car.

Le Yan vaguely saw that there seemed to be a person sitting in the dark backlight of the back seat of the vehicle.

He drank quite a bit tonight and rubbed his eyes to see more clearly, but the car door was already closed.

"Let's go." Li Yiran pulled Le Yan and walked towards their nanny car.

As soon as Le Yan touched Li Yiran's hand, he felt a tingling sensation on his spine, a feeling of oppression as if he was being targeted by a predator.

He turned around suddenly, and there was nothing behind him except Ye Xinchun's nanny car which was gradually driving away.
Le Yan protected his neck vigilantly.

Does this feeling of being watched seem familiar? (End of this chapter)
