Gao Lang's manager Yang Ming and Mu Ning took time to meet.To put it bluntly, an agent is a businessman. Actors think that their own will comes first, but agents generally believe that everyone's interests come first.

Yang Ming told Mu Ning as soon as he came up, "Love You For Long" is a good script, but the subject matter is sensitive, and there is little hope of going to theaters.Moreover, it is unknown whether he can win the prize.Judging from the expected dividends, this drama may not greatly improve Gao Lang's commercial value and artistic value.Moreover, Gao Lang didn't make a match.

"But the role of Shao Feizhou," Mu Ning argued, "he is not the protagonist, but he will be very good. The script is well written, and we don't want to change the character."

Yang Ming smiled: "Of course, we are not drama bullies, and we will not ask to change this script."

Mu Ning heard Yang Ming's subtext, and said, "Don't worry, I'm here today on behalf of Director Guo. If you have any concerns, just tell us, and we will try our best to satisfy you."

Yang Ming: "Gao Lang must be the number one male in name. It must be reflected in the contract."

Mu Ning: "No problem. I don't care about the rank."

Yang Ming also said: "The salary must be the highest. We understand that this project is a small production and the budget will not be too high. But you know Gao Lang's current film salary in the market. We ask for the highest percentage of film salary."

Mu Ning: "Of course."

Yang Ming said: "If there are any political issues in this film, we will not come forward."

Mu Ning: "Okay. If there is any political problem, you can't solve it by coming forward."

Yang Ming: "..."

After several days of hard work, Gao Lang's joining was finally finalized.There was only one role of Lacey's best friend left, so Mu Ning simply asked Wu Chao to play it.

Wu Chao is still in a tepid state at present, but he has a good attitude and is happy to be at ease.Of course, Wu Chao readily agreed to Mu Ning's invitation.

After Zhuang Yao returned to Beijing, he learned from Guo Chengwei that Shao Feizhou had actually booked Gao Lang.Especially when he learned that Mu Ning had completed the entire persuasion and negotiation work by himself, he was even more surprised.If it was in the past, if Zhuang Yao didn't show up, it would be basically impossible.

On Christmas Day, Zhuang Yao brought some gifts to visit Chang Yanyun.The dealer does not celebrate Foreigner's Day, but Zhuang Yao, who has lived overseas for more than ten years, likes this festival very much.

"Merry Christmas, Mom." Zhuang Yao took apart the bouquet, trimmed it slowly, and inserted them into the vase by the bed one by one.

Chang Yanyun leaned on the hospital bed, and asked with concern: "Didn't you just come back from the United States? Have you rested, it seems that you are not very energetic."

"It's fine," Zhuang Yao said, "how's your health recently?"

"It's all good." Chang Yanyun coughed twice, but quickly suppressed it: "You also have to remember to go home and see your father."

Zhuang Yao's hand paused, and then he responded with a normal expression: "Of course."

The second day happened to be a family feast.The table was filled with ordinary home-cooked dishes. Since the last time he came home, Chen Zhen had successively changed a few aunts. When he came back this time, Zhuang Zhongyi finally didn't scold his aunts for not being able to cook well.Chen Zhen was also very satisfied to see him feasting.

After dinner, Zhuang Zhongqi said he still had something to do, so he left first.Several people sat in the main hall, looking at their mobile phones for a while, and watching TV for a while.Don't talk much.

"Zhong Yao."

"Dad." Zhuang Yao responded quickly.

"Has work been going well recently?"

"Thanks to you, everything went well." Zhuang Yao said.

"From next year, you have to pay attention."

Zhuang Yao immediately recognized the unusualness in the words, and looked up at his father in surprise.

But Zhuang Zhong didn't say another word, he calmly picked up the ceramic teacup at hand, and took a sip.

Zhuang Yao has been able to go smoothly until now, without the help of his family, he really wouldn't be able to get to where he is today.No matter how much Zhuang Yao doesn't like this family, he has to admit that what this family has brought him is the advantage of being able to fight half his life less than others, and the vigilance of being able to stand on the shore ahead of time in everything.

Zhuang Yao has also been in the circle for nearly 20 years, and he has never heard any rumors.But the old man of his family just sits in the alley to practice calligraphy, walks the birds, and takes a walk with Chen Zhen every day, but right now, as an elder, he can lightly remind him to be careful about the future.

Zhuang Yao suddenly felt that the crisis was approaching.

Today or tomorrow, even if he relies on his family to get out of danger again and again, his career is somewhat inexplicably connected with this family.Nothing lasts forever, including power.Could this family be invincible forever?

Mu Ning woke up that day, opened Weibo and checked the homepage.Now that he is popular, many people on WeChat who didn't even give him a like have sent messages: "Muning, my new play, can you help me promote it? Thank you so much~", "Muning, this Please give me a like for the promotion of the movie, just like it!", "Muning..."

Mu Ning is not the kind of person who always gives back, and usually likes when he can help.Those who can publicize also cooperate.Just because Mu Ning always likes something messy, some fans put a hat on him as an internet addict.Weibo also catches up with hot spots, and on the hot search in three days, I saw "Muning liked the movie xxx", "Muning suspected of slipping", "Muning liked the team xxx"...

Mu Ning swiped over expressionlessly, and clicked on a trending search related to the Spring Festival Gala.Lin Jiayang had already decided to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala in September, and Mu Ning was very concerned about it.I clicked in and found that Zheng Duan and Lin Jiayang's fans were arguing.

"The stupid program was hacked and blamed on my brother? I can qnmd"

"Today I want to say that ljy and his team are all Sima, what can I have for three thousand yxh? I really feel sorry for my brother"

"The summary for everyone is that Zheng Duan's show was suddenly cut, and Zheng Duan's fans blamed the innocent ljy and his team. You must know that Lin Jiayang's show is not the same as Zheng Duan's. What's the point of fans arguing?"

"The zd universe is the worst. The fake news from 8 years ago was picked up as a new news, ljynmsl, I wish you the best of luck."

"Zd and ljy are too xfxy, eat melons and melons"

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr..."

Mu Ning was dizzy, and all kinds of strange abbreviations in his mind swirled in front of his eyes like stars.

"What does NMSL mean?" Mu Ning sent a screenshot to Amy.

"Your mother is dead," Amy replied.

"???"

"It's an abbreviation for your mother's death. It doesn't mean your mother is really dead." Amy said, "What kind of Weibo do you use? Don't use a large size again? Be careful and like it."

Mu Ning quickly said, "Oh oh oh, I thought you scolded me just now."

"So what are the fans arguing about?"

"Probably because Zheng Duan's show was already in the final review, and then a marketing account from somewhere suddenly pulled out his driving violations many years ago. It was confirmed that the show was taken down within two days, which is also miserable."

"Ah..." Mu Ning finally figured out the ins and outs.

"In short, it has nothing to do with us. Let's sweep the snow in front of the door. Wait, why are you still checking Weibo? Get up quickly. There is an announcement at 11 o'clock today. Did you forget that we are going to shoot the cover? The driver will arrive soon, and I will directly Go to the shed."

Mu Ning: "I know, I know..."

On the day "Love You Forever" was launched, Zhuang Yao appeared after a long absence.

Mu Ning and a group of creators stood in front of the banner of "Auspicious Startup", burning incense and worshiping Emperor Guan, with a dignified roast suckling pig in front of them.

Mu Ning looked at Zhuang Yao, then at the pig's head, and then at Zhuang Yao.It wasn't until Zhuang Yao was stunned that he approached him and asked, "Why are you staring at me all the time?"

"I didn't stare at you." Mu Ning said angrily, "I think you look a lot like that pig's head."

Zhuang Yao frowned, and said slowly: "I offended Emperor Guan, be careful that the incense is broken."

Mu Ning thought so too, this roasted suckling pig was enshrined to Emperor Guan, how could it be compared with Zhuang Yao's pig head, he quickly raised his hands to pray to the sky, and murmured: "Good luck, good luck..."

Zhuang Yao couldn't help laughing.

After burning the incense, they took a group photo. After the end, the photographer saw Zhuang Yao and Mu Ning standing together, seeming to be having a good conversation, and found it very novel.There are really not many people in this circle who can break up peacefully with their old club and continue to cooperate.He came over with the camera and asked softly, "Do you want to take a group photo?"

Mu Ning was about to refuse immediately, but Zhuang Yao couldn't help but grab his shoulders.

"Hey, let me go." Mu Ning whispered.

Zhuang Yao restrained Mu Ning's thin shoulders with one hand, and only looked at the camera lens: "Come on, have a smile."

There was no filming on the day of the opening ceremony.After exchanging greetings for a while, everyone wanted to disperse.

"A cigarette?" Zhuang Yao asked.

"Mr. Zhuang, can we have a relationship where we can chat while smoking?" Mu Ning asked back.

Zhuang Yao smiled, took Mu Ning to a place where there were few people, and said, "I don't want to chat with you. It's just about that day. I owe you an apology."

Mu Ning froze in place.

Zhuang Yao turned around strangely: "What's wrong?"

"What did you just say?" Mu Ning asked in disbelief.

"I said," Zhuang Yao patiently repeated, "I owe you an apology for what happened that day."

Mu Ning couldn't help pinching his own cheeks: "I'm afraid I'm dreaming, right? —— You're still going to apologize!"

Zhuang Yao was ashamed, he had been with Mu Ning for ten years, even if he went too far, he wouldn't even say sorry.What Mu Ning said now made him feel a dull pain in his heart.

Seeing that Zhuang Yao's expression was worried, Mu Ning took out a cigarette from his pocket and said, "Forget it, it's over. Is there a fire?"

The two of them sat in Zhuang Yao's car, rolled down the window a little, and swallowed the clouds.

Xu Ping lowered his head in the driver's seat to browse Moments, and quietly closed the partition.

Zhuang Yao remained silent for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.Mu Ning remembered the last time he sat in Zhuang Yao's car. At that time, he had just left Zhuang Yao. Even though he hinted countless times that they had separated, his dependence on this man was deep-rooted.Until Zhuang Yao said: "Unless you are dying, don't come to me."

It was then that Mu Ning really realized that if he wanted to find himself, he had to not only leave Zhuang Yao, but also completely destroy the dependence in his heart.

"That day..." Zhuang Yao finally spoke: "I drank too much. I scared you."

"Yeah." Mu Ning was a little embarrassed, after all that night, for a moment, he was not prepared to resist.

"Next Saturday is my birthday." Zhuang Yao said.

Mu Ning turned his head to look at him, but the man just watched the tobacco in his hand being burned to ashes by the flames.

"Happy birthday to you in advance." Mu Ning said cautiously.

"Come and have a meal with me, Mu Ning." Zhuang Yao stubbed out the cigarette butt and looked directly at him calmly: "I don't want to live alone."

Mu Ning was stunned. During this meeting, he found that Zhuang Yao's demeanor had become very gentle, even a little bit on eggshells, unlike the self-confident and majestic appearance in his impression.

"Next Saturday, I have something to do next Saturday..." Mu Ning made a nonsense.

"At the Soho branch, eight o'clock on Saturday night." Zhuang Yao turned a deaf ear and said, "Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes are what you like."

"..."

It really is an illusion, Mu Ning thought, it is clearly the original domineering and unreasonable Zhuang Yao.
