The newcomer who signed the contract will be able to get the role of the second male lead in this show as soon as he signs the contract, so it can be seen that he is quite powerful.Even though he is a newcomer, he is not stage fright, no matter what the occasion, he is like a fish in water.

The head table belongs to Wen Yan, who has the highest level, but several members of the crew are the core of the entire TV series. It can be said that without them, this drama would not exist, so Sui Cheng respected the colleagues of the crew first.

From the director, to the producer, to the lead actor, after a few people it was Gu Jiaran's turn.Facing the buddies in the play, Sui Cheng smiled sincerely: "Brother Gu, my younger brother is a rookie who loves to act and doesn't know anything. You have to teach me after suffering. If I do something wrong, you can directly Say, don't take care of my face."

Gu Jiaran pursed his lips, and drank the wine in the glass: "You are too modest, you are much better than me when I debuted, so I don't need me to teach you."

After everyone in the production team paid their respects, the next step was warm words.Sui Cheng held up his wine glass, smiled, and said seriously: "Mr. Wen, I can't speak, but there is one thing I have to say today. There are so many film and television companies in the circle, I am most convinced by our Blue Ocean——Wen Dong started from scratch. , Mr. Wen, you are the icing on the cake. It's really amazing."

These words made Ji Xu look at him twice more.

Wen Yan smiled, but couldn't see anything: "Thank you. Who are you playing in the play?"

Sui Cheng didn't expect the other party to actually notice him, so he hurriedly said, "The second male lead, Jian Minghuan, is Brother Gu's best friend.

Wen Yan nodded: "I see."

Ji Xu laughed when he heard this: "Can you see that too?"

Wen Yan: "Of course, a perfect supporting role face."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the table suddenly turned three points cold, and the director and producer looked at each other in blank dismay.

The protagonist and the supporting role, in this line, are a distinct line.Every actor who just entered the industry, who doesn't want to be popular, who doesn't have the heart of a protagonist?The perfect supporting role face, these words come from the mouth of the big boss of the film and television company, no matter how you hear it, it feels like a curse.

Gu Jiaran couldn't help but glance at Wen Yan.

Wen Yan didn't seem to notice it, and continued: "Don't say it, it's even the voice."

Sui Cheng's face was ugly.If he didn't react a little at the first sentence, then this sentence can basically be sure that Wen Yan is targeting him--just pointing his nose and saying that he is the life of a supporting role from skin to bone, from inside to outside, I can't be red for a lifetime.He was sure that he had nothing to do with the general manager, and he didn't know where his malice came from, but the scene of toasting had to go on.He bit the bullet and drank the wine in the glass, mocking himself: "The leaders are laughing at you." After speaking, he toasted the other people's wine in a hurry, and then returned to his seat as if fleeing.

The atmosphere on the table was a little awkward, and no one spoke for a while.Wen Yan didn't take it seriously, Ji Xu was thoughtful, only Song Xiaoxiao seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, there is a protagonist's face on our table, and the fans on Weibo have been shouting for him to debut! "

Song Xiaoxiao was talking about Ji Xu.

After Wen Yan took over Lan Hai, the company has undergone many changes.Probably because the team is young, one of which is that it is much more down-to-earth.For example, Vice President Ji Xuji, in the industry, his style of conduct is recognized as comprehensive and extremely smooth; but outside of work, the Weibo, which was originally opened for social needs, is humorous and handsome, which makes people bear it. I couldn't help but feel good about it, and actually won over a large number of fans.

When Ji Xu heard this, his face turned pale: "My career fan said that although I have good looks and own resources, my energy is limited at present, so I should concentrate on doing my job first."

The words made everyone at the table laugh, and the atmosphere finally became lively again.

After dinner, Wen Yan and Gu Jiaran returned home one after the other.Gu Jiaran has been a little preoccupied since Sui Cheng finished toasting the wine. He waited until he stood in front of the sofa in the living room before he hesitated to say: "Boss Wen, today..."

Wen Yan took off his suit and threw it on the sofa: "What happened today?"

Gu Jiaran sighed: "It's not that I'm not angry when he said this behind my back, but Mr. Wen, there's really no need for you—"

"happy?"

Gu Jiaran was stunned: "What?"

Wen Yan unbuttoned the cuff buttons and rolled up the shirt: "Do you feel happy when I say that about him today?"

Gu Jiaran understood: "Boss Wen, I—"

"I asked you if you are happy?"

Gu Jiaran closed her eyes, and it took a long time before she said softly, "Happy."

Since his debut, he has faced various personal attacks every day.It's not uncommon for people like Sui Cheng to be on the same crew, and it's not uncommon for them to do one thing in person and one behind the scenes.After a long time, even he himself felt that this matter was nothing, and everyone came here like this.However, today Wen Yan stood up for him because of such a trivial matter, Gu Jiaran had an indescribable feeling.

Wen Yan couldn't help laughing: "Look, it's better to be a human being."

"That's because Mr. Wen, you have everything." Gu Jiaran lowered her eyes.

Wen Yan didn't refute him, but changed the subject: "You are too stingy. I was just joking with you before, but you still avoided me."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jiaran was a little unconvinced: "Boss Wen, some jokes are not allowed to be played indiscriminately."

Wen Yan stopped what he was doing, glanced at him, and smiled half-smile: "Oh?"

Gu Jiaran: "..."

As if admitting defeat, Gu Jiaran said angrily, "Boss Wen, you are eloquent, I can't beat you." After speaking, he turned his face away and stopped looking at him.

Gu Jiaran, who has a little temper, looks much more lively.While Wen Yan couldn't help staring at him, he didn't know what to think, and laughed again.

This is not a peaceful day, and it is finally over.For Gu Jiaran, he unexpectedly slept soundly and even had a dream.In his dream, he went back to the day when he came to the villa on Qinghe Road: there was no one around him, and he stood in the middle of the empty living room, looking at a boy coming down the stairs in a daze: his The body emerged from the shadows, and the sunlight passed over his immature and slightly handsome face bit by bit, like a painting, slowly unveiling the long-awaited canvas——

"Are you my younger brother? Hello, I'm Fang Xingyuan."

Nine, friends

Skinning King V: A lot of people have sent private messages to the king to ask the king to pick up Gu Jiaran, but actually this one doesn't need me to pick it up anymore.Let’s answer in unison: It’s true that it’s Fang Gu’s illegitimate son, Nenghong is indeed operated by Fang Yuan, the feud between father and son is fake, it needs hype; the scandal with the actress surnamed L is fake; A proud person basically doesn't talk to others.

Rose has a bad temper: the marketing account has been hacked again! Didn't you hint at the actress surnamed L at the beginning? ! !

Minnie from CQ: I have never liked him, his acting skills are poor and he loves hype. [curling lips]

Did you buy today's Amway: I'm the only one who wonders if Fang Yuan and Gu Anyang still had their original love triangle?The last time I saw a photo of the two of them, they matched their faces!

Liu Qishan V: It seems that the entertainment industry cannot survive without hype.

Die Wu Feng Ya: I feel that Gu Jiaran's team has a good vision, and all the scenes they choose are quite good, I like it.

……

"What do you think?" Wen Yan pointed to the Weibo on the screen with a high retweet rate.

Ji Xu tilted his head and took a look, then sneered and said, "It's not that you don't know that the materials of this marketing account are for laymen to read, you might as well look at me. Speaking of which, you have paid a lot of attention to Gu Jiaran recently. .”

Wen Yan nodded: "I want to sign him to Blue Ocean."

Ji Xu sat up straight and asked in surprise, "Aren't you kidding me?"

Wen Yan: "I look like I'm joking?"

Ji Xu thought about it for a while: "Actually, I have thought about it before. Gu Jiaran is in good condition in all aspects, and his only shortcoming is his acting skills. To be honest, some of his plays are good, but some of them are not. I don't feel very good. Stable. Director Fang Yuan's idea is that he signed AT Entertainment, with this relationship, I guess I can't get it out."

Wen Yan: "No wonder, I remembered that Fang Yuan and Mr. Zhao over there have been friends for a long time. He seems to have made very few films in the past few years. What impressed me deeply is that he helped the higher up to shoot a national promotional film. There is a public welfare film, and then it is teaching at the film academy, film festival reviewing films."

"Yes, I'm also quite strange. It is said that he and Gu Anyang were national couples back then, but in the end he married someone else. There are many reasons for the breakup, and I don't know which one is true. I guess the reason for the discord between the father and son is related to Gu Anyang. related."

Wen Yan remembered another thing: "Does Fang Yuan and his original partner have a son?"

"He died in a car accident." Ji Xu glanced at Wen Yan, "There is a widely circulated saying that Gu Jiaran was also at the scene of the car accident, but he escaped by himself and failed to save him. rupture."

Wen Yan didn't respond for a long time.After a while, he closed the computer and patted Ji Xu on the shoulder: "Let's go, I asked Gu Jiaran to have dinner, let's go together."

Gu Jiaran's filming location today is in the suburbs, and there is a private restaurant called "Shanfeng" that is very famous.Wen Yan thought that he hadn't eaten for a long time, and still missed it a little, so he called Gu Jiaran and Ji Xu together.

What Shanfeng is famous for is that it eats wild food. This "wild" is not wild game, but wild wild.This place used to be a wasteland with many flowers and trees. After buying the land, the owner of the hotel carried out a semi-open design on the basis of the original, trying to integrate plants into the hotel.For example, the private room they booked today, upon entering the door, the wild roses blooming bustlingly by the window sill made people couldn't help but feel happy.

After the three of them sat down and ordered some dishes, they chatted.Because Gu Jiaran rushed here from the set, he didn't have time to change his clothes, plus Wen Yan and Ji Xu, the three of them wore suits, shirts and ties.Ji Xu looked around and couldn't help laughing out loud: "It feels like we're about to debut, the general manager team."

Gu Jiaran was a little embarrassed: "I am at most a vase general manager, how dare I compare with you."

Wen Yan frowned: "You are not a vase."

When he said this, his voice was not loud, like a drop of water silently melting into the vast ocean.But there were layers of ripples in Gu Jiaran's heart.He gripped the water glass tighter and tighter.

Ji Xu glanced at Wen Yan, then at Gu Jiaran, pretending not to notice the delicate atmosphere between the two, and lowered his head to play with his phone.Wen Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.He always felt that Gu Jiaran was not confident enough, as an actor, this was not a problem.

After a while, the dishes came up one after another. There is a signature dish in "Mountain Breeze" called Hibiscus Shrimp. Wen Yan was about to invite Gu Jiaran to have a taste when he heard a "snap" and the door opened——

"The crystal curtain moves and the breeze blows, and the whole frame is full of rose fragrance." The speaker's tone was unusually lazy, but he had exaggerated short blond hair on his head, half of his face was covered by sunglasses, and only his well-shaped chin and a pair of eyes were exposed. Zhang chattered, "I just saw the writing on the wall outside. Jiaran, why do I think you've turned dark... Oh, I forgot to take off my sunglasses."

Before Wen Yan and Ji Xu could react, Gu Jiaran had already stood up, with surprise and joy on his face: "Ruizhi?!"

The man's beautiful peach blossom eyes curled up, and he opened his arms: "Yes, I'm back."

The person who came was none other than Gu Jiaran's good friend in England, He Ruizhi.

After Gu Jiaran gave a brief introduction, Wen Yan and Ji Xu exchanged glances.Ji Xu considered it for a while, then smiled and said, "What? I suddenly remembered that Dong Yu from Tongyu Industry—"

"That's right, He Hongyu is my father, and he gave birth to me outside, the third son, He Ruizhi." When he said this, he picked up Gu Jiaran's chopsticks and picked up a shrimp, eating and admiring, "Jiaran , let me tell you, this shrimp is really delicious, ummmm."

Ji Xu: "..."

I don't know if this Mr. He San is too careless or too unscrupulous, but this kind of private matter is said so loudly.Wen Yan's forehead twitched, and he beckoned the waiter to bring another set of bowls and chopsticks.

Gu Jiaran felt helpless: "Ruizhi, why didn't you tell me when you came back, and how did you know I was here?"

He Ruizhi turned his chopsticks to the eggplant pot again: "I called Yoyo and wanted to surprise you."

He was even familiar with Gu Jiaran's assistant, Wen Yan couldn't help but glance at him again.

Probably the three of them stared at him eating alone too enthusiastically. After a while, He Ruizhi finally put down his chopsticks.He wiped his mouth slowly and asked, "Who are these two?"

Did you eat for a long time before remembering to ask? !Ji Xu slandered in his heart.

Gu Jiaran was also a little embarrassed: "It's my fault. This is Mr. Wen from Blue Ocean Media, and this is Mr. Ji." Then he apologized to the two of them: "Ruizhi has been living abroad and is more... informal. If something is wrong, I apologize to the two on his behalf."

Ji Xuyan laughed at Yanyan: "Where, Mr. He San has a real temperament, which is popular now."

He Ruizhi was a little moved: "As expected of a film and television professional, you really have a vision."

Ji Xu: "..."

Before leaving after dinner, Wen Yan specifically asked if he wanted to take He Rui for a ride, Gu Jiaran shook his head: "No, Boss Wen, he's probably going to the set, and then he'll wait for me for dinner."

After a gentle meal: "You two have such a good relationship."

Gu Jiaran smiled: "Friends for many years, you and Mr. Ji are the same."

Wen Yan nodded and said no more.

In the afternoon, Wen Yan received a call from Gu Jiaran. He asked Wen Yanjie if he would mind if he took He Ruizhi to Emerald Cloud Mountain, because the other party said he wanted to eat dumplings, and he didn't have anything at home, only Wen Yan's family had all the ingredients.

Wen Yan thought for a while and said, "It's okay, you can treat it as your own home. Just bring me a copy of the dumplings."

When I got home at night, I saw Gu Jiaran and He Ruizhi rolling out dumpling wrappers and making dumplings at the dining table, chatting with each other.He walked over and looked, and there were quite a few.

Gu Jiaran smiled and said, "Boss Wen, what kind of stuffing do you like? There are cabbage pork and leek eggs."

Gu Jiaran's eyes were shining, and there was a small white patch on his face, which should have been covered with flour.It happened that He Ruizhi went to the kitchen to get something, Wen Yan's heart moved, and he couldn't help but bent his fingers and scraped his face.Gu Jiaran was taken aback for a moment, only feeling that the place on his face that he touched was faintly hot.His heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head.Wen Yan stared at his reddened ears, and tried to hide it: "It's stuck with flour. I ate cabbage and pork." Then he went back to the living room and flipped through the magazine.

He said he was reading a magazine, but Wen Yan had been secretly listening to the chat between the two of them.Originally, I thought that He Ruizhi said more and Gu Jiaran said less, but I didn't expect that it was Gu Jiaran who asked and He Ruizhi answered.

Sure enough, they are old friends for many years, but they are different in front of new friends.Wen Yan couldn't help thinking.

"I thought you weren't coming back."

"I don't know why the old man went crazy and called me back again. It's not like you don't know my big brother. Guarding against me is like guarding against thieves."

"Are you still going?"

"Don't leave. He asked me to enter the company to experience it. God, I don't understand anything. Do you want to serve tea?" He Ruizhi seemed a little irritable.

"take it easy."

"En. By the way, have you found your things? Do you want me to find my dad—"

"Not yet. Don't worry about it."

"Ok."

……

The next two said something, but Wen Yan couldn't catch it.

When it was time to eat dinner, Wen Yan pretended to mention it casually: "I just heard what Shao He said, are you going to work in the company?"

He Ruizhi looked at him suspiciously and nodded: "Yes, Mr. Wen, what's the matter?"

Wen Yan laughed: "Sure enough, the elders are the same all over the world. If you want to train an heir, you have to go to the grassroots to train first."

He Ruizhi pouted: "I'm not an heir."

Wen Yan nodded: "But speaking of it, I can't let go of going to my own company. Do you want to come to Lanhai?"

Gu Jiaran looked at Wen Yan.

Wen Yan: "The last time you met Ji Xu was the vice president of our company. You can tell Gu Jiaran about his ability. You can learn a lot from him, such as business negotiation, social etiquette and so on. Our company is not as good as your family Your company has nothing to do with the horse and the cow, and there is no business secret involved, and you are very free, how about it?"

He Ruizhi's heart was moved: Anyway, what the old man meant was to exercise first, who should he not follow?The most important thing is that following Ji Xu must be much more comfortable than following his elder brother.

"Is it really possible?" He Ruizhi was still a little skeptical.

Wen Yan smiled slightly: "Of course."

That's it.Wen Yan asked him to come to Lan Hai directly after confirming the date and take up the post of Ji Xu's assistant.The three of them drank some tea after eating, and then sent away the joyous He Ruizhi. Gu Jiaran was a little worried: "Is this okay, Mr. Wen? Ruizhi really doesn't know anything."

Wen Yan helped him clean up the dishes: "Don't worry about it, if you don't know it, you won't, Ji Xu will teach him."

"I'm afraid of delaying Mr. Ji's serious business."

"No." Wen Yan seemed to think of something, and then asked, "I heard you chatting just now, what are you looking for? Do you need my help?"

Gu Jiaran paused for a moment.

"Yes, Mr. Wen, I'm looking for something."

"What is it?"

Gu Jiaran sat on the chair.After a long time, he said:

"A necklace in the shape of a dragonfly."

[-]. Necklace

The light from the chandelier above the dining table fell on Gu Jiaran, casting a lonely shadow.

"After my mother passed away, she left a will. One of them is that all her jewelry is entrusted to a trust company for auction, and then all the auction proceeds are donated to the orphanage."

"One piece of jewelry is a necklace in the shape of a dragonfly."

"I want to find a buyer and buy it back with him. But the auction is private, and all information is kept strictly confidential. After so many years, I haven't found out until now."

"This necklace is very important to me."

Wen Yan wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

Gu Jiaran raised her head: "You know my mother, Gu Anyang."

Wen Yan nodded: "My mother likes her very much. I have discs of all your mother's movies at home."

Gu Jiaran smiled, and her expression became gentle: "Yes, she is very good at acting. It's a pity that I didn't inherit her talent."

Wen Yan looked at him and said nothing.

"You may not believe it, but we actually get along very little. Or a lot, I'm too young to remember."

Gu Anyang in the movie is magnificent, like a flower that never fades, as long as she stands there and does nothing, it is also a painting.But for Gu Jiaran, his deepest memory of Gu Anyang was after she fell ill - she finally stayed at home every day, even though she was only lying in bed.Gu Jiaran was brought up by a nanny since he was a child, he was actually more than curious about this mother, but not enough intimacy.

Those were probably the fastest three months of his life.During those three months, Gu Anyang played games with him, told him stories, and she even peeled apples for him to eat, just like a most ordinary mother, even though she could only do it in bed.She likes to listen to a song repeatedly, a female voice sings softly, Gu Jiaran can't understand the lyrics, so she asks what she is singing.Gu Anyang smiled and said, "It's the most gentle thing in the world." She also likes to touch a necklace around her neck, which is a dragonfly-shaped necklace.He was very curious: "Why do you keep touching it?" How did Gu Anyang answer?She said: "Because, if you find it, you will find yourself."

She was so frail and yet so beautiful.

At that time, Gu Jiaran was only 6 years old. At the age of 6, he suddenly understood what a mother is during that month.He has a lot of things he wants to say to his mother, he still has a lot of toys he wants to show his mother to play with, and he wants to knead plasticine with his mother.

Yeah, mom.

He was so happy that he couldn't sleep at night.

Then one day, Gu Anyang passed away.

Gu Jiaran stood outside the door, looking at the empty room with nothing in it.

There are no songs played repeatedly, no racks with bottles hanging on them, no Gu Anyang looking at him and smiling, no Gu Anyang.

Nothing at all.

What is the cruelest thing in this world?

Have never owned?

No, it is to have and then lose.

""I Happily Like You", a very old song."

Wen Yan was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he was talking about the song that Gu Anyang listened to repeatedly before his death.

"She listened to the version of a very small female singer. I searched for a long time before I found it."

"Such a sad song, but she told me that it was about the tenderness of the world, I don't understand."

But Wen Yan seemed to understand.

After a while, Gu Jiaran let out a long breath and smiled: "I'm sorry, I've heard so many boring things. Go and do your work, and I'll just clean it up." He stood Get up and prepare to clear the table.

Wen Yan grabbed his hand.

Gu Jiaran raised his face to look at him.

Gu Jiaran talked a lot that night.He was always calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.Wen Yan didn't know how much turmoil was hidden under those eyes, and even, there might be more, he hasn't said yet.He looked very lonely, his figure was very faint, and he seemed to disappear from this world in the next second.If he could, he wished—

Wen Yan's hand slowly and forcefully pulled Gu Jiaran in front of him.The two faced each other, separated by a table, but their breaths intertwined.In Gu Jiaran's surprised dilated pupils, Wen Yan kissed him on the forehead.

"You—is this—?"

"This is the tenderness that the world bestows upon you."

——If there is something in this world, let him stay.

[-]. Movies

Gu Jiaran no longer remembers how he returned to the room.The chat at night had exhausted all his energy, and he didn't even have the energy to think about that feather-light kiss.

He lay on the bed with his eyes open, his head was drowsy, his heart was soft, and he was inexplicably happy.

He never thought that one day he would chat with Wen Yan about Gu Anyang.Before that, he had only mentioned her to two people: one was He Ruizhi, and the other was a psychologist.

He didn't know how to define Wen Yan. Even though they were friends now, he did get close to him for some reason in the beginning.He had already thought about it a long time ago, just give himself the time for one movie, he wants to spend a period of time with Wen Yan under the same roof: friends, tenants, or just strangers staying overnight, no matter what It's fine in any capacity.It's like fulfilling one of your wishes.

However, he didn't know that Wen Yan was such a person.

I will cook with him, chat with him about many interesting things, joke around, comfort him, help him get ahead, and seriously say that I am his friend.However, originally, he just wanted to see him from a distance, and didn't really want to have too much contact with the general manager.

Wen Yan is great.

He couldn't help thinking: Is he being this nice to all his friends?

With him, you will always be comfortable, relaxed and safe.He really wanted to let himself indulge in it, but he couldn't.

Gu Jiaran slowly closed his eyes, he was already too greedy.

=======================================

Wen Yan dug out Gu Anyang's famous movie, "The Story of a Boat".

The story is not new. A group of young people with different identities and their own masters gathered together because of a certain incident, and started a treacherous and magnificent journey in the rivers and lakes. "Starting a boat" means "sailing a boat", and the huge rivers and lakes are waiting for them to set sail.

After all, it is an old film, and the picture quality is not clear now, but the costumes of the characters are still beautiful.In the movie, Gu Anyang plays two roles, a pair of twin sisters.The two are killers, they have no names, only code names, one is called Dragonfly and the other is called Butterfly.

Dragonflies and butterflies look exactly alike and have almost the same personalities. "Almost" means that Gu Anyang needs to perform that slight difference—to make it invisible to the audience, but also to make it visible to the audience.

The mischievous sisters especially enjoy playing the "guess who I am" game when confronted by the male lead, who never gets it right.Then one day when he guessed wrong again and the twins looked at him and laughed, the eyes of the dragonfly swept the butterfly slightly.

What a brief scene.
