coronation of stars

Chapter 5 The Pearl and Jade Controversy (2)
"No need." Qin Fei followed closely, her voice was clear and lingering, her brows were lightly furrowed as if she was not eating fireworks, but her slightly swollen red lips, especially with water, made the persuasiveness of her dusty demeanor greatly compromised.Her every move carried the arrogance and specialness that a popular front-line should have. She looked into Qiao Yan's eyes without any emotion, "It's you again, what a coincidence."

"It's better to be a coincidence." Qiao Yan rolled her eyes and replied with a smile, "Otherwise, Senior Sister Qin has to bother to trouble another innocent artist. It's not worth the effort, and it's better to turn it all on me. "

"Innocent..." Qin Fei smiled lightly, looked at Gu Zhaoming who was standing aside, "won't you say hello to your Junior Sister Qiao?"

"...Qiao Yan." Gu Zhaoming's expression was much more complicated than that of Qin Fei's. He looked at Qiao Yan and hesitated to speak, and finally only called her name dryly.Junior Sister Qiao couldn't say anything now, Qin Fei would be very angry, and Qiao Yan... I'm afraid she would be even more angry.

He is not like Qin Fei and Qiao Yan who have both stayed in Kaixing. Although there is actually no intersection, it is not abrupt to call senior sister Qiao Yan. The relationship was formed. Almost a year and a half ago, he served as the leading actor in an ancient martial arts film. He was very fond of the story.

At that time, he was not as famous as he is now. This male lead was hard-won, and he was full of ambition and cherished it very much. At this moment, just like the protagonist in the play he played, he met two people at the same time. Exciting girl.

Qin Fei is the heroine of that play, she is cold and noble, she is his unattainable goddess, Qiao Yan is his junior sister in the play, she is clever and interprets the language, and is the tenderness within his reach.He first met his junior sister in the play, enjoying her enthusiasm, but he still felt that there was something missing when he was satisfied. It was not until he met the goddess that he suddenly felt his heart beat. He couldn't help chasing after the goddess's back, but he hesitated a little because of the existence of the junior sister. .And after the junior sister sacrificed for him in the third episode, the young man learned from the pain and worked hard towards the goddess. Finally, he embraced the beauty and made a good story.

But the reality is just the opposite. At that time, Qin Fei, who was already in the front line, showed obvious affection for him, while the rookie Qiao Yan, who was playing a role, was always indifferent to his half-hearted overtures, as if she didn't understand his thoughts at all. .

He likes Qiao Yan's gentleness, and also likes Qin Fei's coldness, he hesitates but also knows that he can't hesitate for too long.He thought of his difficulties in climbing the entertainment industry, thought of the practical benefits of falling in love with Qin Fei, and also thought of Qiao Yan's polite but alienated attitude towards him, and finally made up his mind to pursue the one he was sure of and had many benefits. , and soon captured Qin Fei's heart, and the two came together secretly.

After being together, Gu Zhaoming discovered that although Qin Fei looked cold, she was very adventurous and enjoyed secretive and challenging things.They hugged and kissed secretly everywhere in the crew, and they were in love like glue. Gu Zhaoming felt very fresh, and also had a sense of satisfaction of conquering a high mountain.Not long after, when he hugged Qin Fei and planted a series of light kisses on her face in the prop room, Qiao Yan suddenly opened the door and walked in.

She looked very stunned, but her reaction was very quick, and she was about to close the door and leave immediately. Gu Zhaoming saw it, but somehow felt a tightness in her heart, a feeling of betraying Qiao Yan, and she subconsciously let go before her rationality caught up. He hugged Qin Fei's hand.

Qin Fei turned her face back to look at him coldly, his heart flustered suddenly, but he was a little tongue-tied because of guilty conscience.What happened afterward was something he will never forget. Qin Fei’s sudden attack and Qiao Yan’s sudden outburst caught him by surprise. The way Qiao Yan looked at them in the end still remains fresh in his memory——

The contempt and disdain are so frank that he can't lift his head every time he thinks about it.

The grievances between them are as simple as that, but it is a pity that there is no way to clear up the past.After the initial hypocritical politeness, the three of them had no intention of continuing to talk nonsense, Qin Fei and Gu Zhaoming left in a hurry, Qiao Yan watched them disappear under the stairs and was about to go in, but the phone suddenly rang.

It was a text message from an unknown number, with only one sentence in it.

"How did you become enmity with Qin Fei and Gu Zhaoming?"

Qiao Yan thought for a while, pressed the phone, and replied four words to the other party.

"It's hard to say."

The other party's text message came back quickly. This time, he clearly expressed his dissatisfaction, and there were several more punctuation marks.

"I asked you about the content of a whole novel, but you just answered me with a title?!"

Take the initiative to jump out and gossip and pick and choose?Qiao Yan almost laughed out of anger, walked to the door of the next room, opened the door and went in.As expected, the door was unlocked. Qiao Yan stood by the door and looked at the young man with cross-legged legs in the lounge, raising his brows lightly.

"Before I tell you the whole novel, let me ask you a question."

"Mr. Mu, why do you have my mobile phone number?"

"I thought you would be a little more surprised when you saw me." Mu Ting carefully observed Qiao Yan's expression, and found that the other party was indeed calm from head to toe, as if there was something in the conversation with Qin Fei and Gu Zhaoming just now. It's not like she is.He clicked tut twice, feeling quite bored, the conversation outside just now had only a few words, which made people hear it in a cloud, he is not a gossip person, but since things happened right under their noses, no one likes to watch dramas You missed the beginning and the end, didn't you?

However, Qiao Yan obviously didn't intend to start over with him carefully, so he could only correct his attitude a little bit disappointed, and nodded to Qiao Yan: "Miss Qiao, we meet again."

"Actually, I was quite surprised." Qiao Yan replied with a straight face, "It's just that I don't have the nerve to reflect on my face the mental activity of "My God, why did I meet Prince Mu from Fengchen?" "

Mu Ting laughed out loud immediately, his angular jaw was raised upwards, and his whole body was full of confident and arrogant beauty.

His facial features tend to be exquisite and good-looking, but he has a pair of standard phoenix eyes. His eyes are sharp and sharp when they are not smiling. He also looks handsome, bright and vigorous, handsome and dazzling, like a young knight in fresh clothes and angry horses walking in the rivers and lakes in ancient times, who doesn't know how to feel sad. When you look at it, you can't help but smile along with it.Qiao Yan also pursed the corners of her lips lightly, softly closing her eyelashes slightly.

Every time she met Mu Ting, the other party left her with a different impression. The first time she saw Mu Ting, she felt that he was cold and straightforward. When she heard him from the makeup artist for the second time, she put him in her heart. label, and now the other party's name flashed in my mind for the third time, and the feeling was quite different from the previous two times.

It wasn't even the first time she broke Qin Fei and Gu Zhaoming's relationship, and she still felt embarrassed at this time, and the other party was forced to witness a little secret just now, but he chose to voluntarily declare his identity to make her feel happy Countless, surprisingly clever and honest.

Looking at the vicious and hard-to-communicate appearance, I didn't expect him to be a good person.Qiao Yan issued the card to the other party silently in her heart, and after the issuance, she still didn't forget to continue to ask the question just now: "Is there a backup of my personal information at Fengchen? If that's the case, I will go online and sneak into the navy team to black Kaixing Already, our company is about to end."

"I do have your information here, but it wasn't leaked from your company. You can let your company go, Keyboard Man." Mu Ting beckoned her to come and sit down. There were no assistant managers in the room, no I wonder if Prince Mu usually has this habit of being alone.

Qiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but Mu Ting keenly noticed, picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to her.She walked over and took it. It was her own information, and the contact information was clearly written on it. Mu Ting really didn't lie to her.

There were some papers left on the table, all of which were other artist's materials, Mu Ting casually gathered the papers, looked at Qiao Yan who was sitting on the side: "Do you know who your company sent these materials for? "

Qiao Yan is no stranger to such an actor's resume. In addition to the scripts that the crew took the initiative to send to the company's agent during filming, there are also some roles that the actors need to fight for themselves. In these cases, handing over a resume to the director is also a necessary process.

Qiao Yan's drama appointment for next year has not been settled yet, the company put her in the position of first sister, so it is naturally impossible for her to go to various crews to audition and polish like this year.So everything is still under discussion, everything has not yet been decided, but according to the principle of Kaixing expensive and fine not expensive, the resume did not put too much, but the ones that can be obtained by Mu Ting...

"Director Cao Rui." The sure-fire answer Qiao Yan said calmly, and put the paper back on the table that Mu Ting had tidied up, "The role has already been decided, so the resumes of other people have arrived. In your hand?"

Cao Rui is also a well-known director in the drama circle, roughly as famous as Zhang Jian. Both of them are good at remakes and adaptations of literary masterpieces and novels, but their personal styles are different.

Zhang Jian has a good grasp of the tone, context and emotional details of the original work, and is quite popular with book fans, but except for the special case of "The Confession of Beauty", it is mostly well-received but the ratings are average. After all, book fans are only a minority. He is in the sample Not very popular there.

Cao Rui is almost the opposite. He has a vicious vision and only remakes fast-paced novels with tight and intense plots. His grasp of delicate emotions is average, but he has a very precise grasp of market tastes. Acting in his plays is almost the most effective accumulation of popularity. The springboard, it is said that "The Beauty of Beauty" was originally intended to be directed by Cao Rui, but his schedule at that time was really not available, and Zhang Jian was later fulfilled.

Therefore, the protagonist in Cao Rui’s play has always been the focus of competition among various families. Although Kaixing is considered hardworking, he is not very competitive. Qiao Yan is not surprised after guessing the result now, it is reasonable and the standard ending is taken for granted. I don't even feel lost.

"It's tentatively decided, didn't your company tell you?" Mu Ting stared at Qiao Yan with interest, not letting go of her expression, "Shu Li won the role, and I will definitely arrange you in a few days Met with Cao Rui."

Qiao Yan was solidly taken aback.

She reacted for a few seconds before turning her head to look at Mu Ting, and there was even a hint of hesitation on her face: "...Sister Li?"

"Yes, Shu Li. You didn't know because you entered the industry late. Shu Li is actually a very powerful person. She was Xuan Ting's best manager when she left from Xuan Ting without following Luo Ming. Her methods and contacts were first-class. One is good, Xuan Ting regretted losing her for a long time, in fact, there are still many people in the industry who are surprised that Shu Li can stay in Kaixing with peace of mind."

Although Mu Ting was even a little later than Qiao Yan according to the time when he entered the entertainment industry, but as Mu Ting, he would know what he should know.When he talked about Shu Li's glorious past, he was quite admirable in his words. It seemed that anyone with ability would be favored by him.

He picked up Qiao Yan's form and flicked it with his fingers playfully: "Shu Li and Cao Rui probably had some friendship before, so they caught up with Cao Rui's new drama. At that time, Cao Rui had several candidates-of course you It's the weakest one among them - it makes him a little hesitant, you know that Cao Rui is a relatively smooth director, always trying to take care of everything."

"All the related accounts were left by him to the second round. After excluding the considerations of human relations and sophistication, he returned to the TV series itself. Instead, he was confused. He asked the opinions of two very important people, and these two people-both recommended it. you."

"Which two..." Qiao Yan realized halfway through the question, "...Thank you."

"No need." Mu Ting replied to her, but he didn't make any hypocritical excuses for her thanks.Both of them knew how important his recommendation had affected the result, and they knew each other's heart, and neither of them was more polite after a word of thanks.

"I really appreciate your acting skills. You didn't tell a lie. This kind of one-sentence thing is effortless and has no effect on me. I'm also curious how far a person like you can go, and you don't need to have a psychological burden , I seem to be passionate about helping the poor, now you don’t need to say hundreds of words of thanks, come to me to repay your favor after you get ahead.”

"Okay, then you wait." Qiao Yan smiled, and followed his tone, "Who is the other person? I will write it down first, and I will make a pennant for each of you and send it to the company."

"You shouldn't be able to guess the other person, but you deserve his praise."

"It's Cao Rui's male lead, Wei Ze."

Qiao Yan really didn't expect it to be this name, and he was full of emotion and mixed feelings for a moment.

She has almost no interaction with Wei Ze, and she can't usually act in Wei Ze's new film. The two met on the set of "The Confession of Beauty". Apart from acting with Mu Xueqing, Wei Ze and Li Shana played the most opposite roles. Li Shana At that time, it seemed that she had other thoughts about Wei Ze. When Mu Xueqing and Gu Zhaoming got together, she often followed Wei Ze, and she used the name to seek advice from Shidi. Even the blind knew what she was thinking.

However, Wei Ze's refusal was gentle and firm. He is a family man, and he didn't seem to have any intention of having an affair on the set. Li Shana tried hard in vain. Perhaps this also strengthened her determination to leave Kaixing.

In short, Qiao Yan never had a role in the same frame as Wei Ze on the set. She is also a knowledgeable and wise person who protects herself. With Li Shana's thoughts, she is usually three meters away from Wei Ze almost all the time. Above, after joining the same crew together, the two can only barely know each other.It is such a person who has no intersection, as the heroine, suggested to the director to let her be the heroine of this drama...

I knew how deep and muddy the water in this circle is, how long and dangerous the road is, but no matter where you are, no matter what the situation is, there will always be some people like that who are willing to lend a helping hand to others, willing to help those who really work hard People move forward.

This is the kind of person Luo Ming who chose to sign her when she was still unknown after three years of acting, this is the kind of person in front of Mu Ting who reminded her to pay attention to Gu Zhaoming, and Wei Wei who is willing to say something for her in front of the director Ze is also such a person.These people are noble people in her life, facing their generous help——

She is very grateful.

She looked at Mu Ting, and Mu Ting also looked at her, and they didn't speak for a while.The sound of the door opening in the lounge next door interrupted their gaze. Qiao Yan leaned against the door to listen, and vaguely heard the voices of Shi Rui and Shu Li.She smiled apologetically at Mu Ting, opened the door a crack, and planned to leave when no one was there, and go to the lounge next door to be with Shi Rui.She was looking at the situation outside the door when Mu Ting suddenly asked her:
"Last question." Mu Ting said, "I accidentally found out that someone from Xuan Ting wanted to poach you. Send Li Shana to mention it to you, why didn't you leave? Don't you like Xuan Ting?"

"No." Shi Rui came early, and after a little bustle outside, it became quiet again.Qiao Yan opened the door and looked back at Mu Ting with clear eyes.

"Because I know that I will definitely be popular one day, so there is no need to be so anxious that I will do whatever it takes."

"What's more..." Qiao Yan thought for a while, then smiled and shook her head.

"Since Prince Mu knows that Li Shana told me that she wanted to drag me away, he must also know that the person Xuan Ting really wants to dig me over is Qin Fei, right?"

"What kind of person she is... I know much better than Li Shana."

The Pearl and Jade Awards went well that night.

Li Shana sat very far in front, with an excellent view, and directly in front of her was Qin Fei and Mu Xueqing who were sitting side by side.The cameras in the field frequently scanned the area where they were. She raised her face upright and smiled, and her calm and calm image had appeared on the screen several times. This experience was fresh and satisfying, which made her feel Very satisfied.
