later story

The Starchaser app on Shen Yue's phone pushes a new message: Chi Zao, who you follow, has a new social update.

She seldom reads these at ordinary times, but routinely installs one or two star chasing apps like everyone else in the company, and pays attention to Shang Bining and other artists related to him.I saw this push today, but it was accidentally opened.

It was Chi Zao who liked Shang Bining's Weibo.

Oh!Shen Yue almost didn't hold the phone steady.

At this moment, Shang Bining is filming a short public welfare short film on the theme of "Historic Building Protection", introducing the building he is in to the camera.It is the former residence of a cultural celebrity. Shang Bining added the story of himself and this building while using the official copy.

Shang Bining said: "Actually, when I am free, I like to visit various old buildings and former residences of celebrities. This is the third time I have come here. I remember that the second time I came here, it was with My good friend. It was summer, the grape trellis in the yard was growing lushly, and the grapes had just ripened..."

Shen Yue was secretly surprised - what kind of bullshit best friend is Chi Zao.

At that time, during group activities, the two of them sneaked out to play and visited this courtyard.The whereabouts of that time were well hidden, neither was photographed nor encountered by chance.Later, other teammates exposed the material in a chat session on a certain program.

In fact, during group activities, no photos or videos of their solo actions have ever been exposed.Things will be known to the outside world, basically from other people's mouths.Some of those who broke the news were just mentioning it casually or in line with the needs of the program, and some had ulterior motives.They themselves will basically not actively cue each other in front of any camera.

Therefore, the famous saying of CP fans, "Everything that will be put on the table is a business, and if it is true, you dare not use it for business", it is not unreasonable.

Shen Yue recalled, and she was sure that this section before him was the first time in six years that Shang Bining took the initiative to mention the past related to Chi Zao.She looked down at the notifications on her phone.It was the first time that Chi Zao liked this.

What is the reason for two people to come out at the same time?

Not long after, Shang Bining finished filming a set of scenes, took a break off camera, and came to drink water.

Shen Yue truthfully told him the news on Weibo, that the phone page had been switched to their CP Chaohua.Inside, there is a scene of celebrating the New Year happily.How many years have passed, the way people express their joy has not changed much, and the expressions of kneeling and crying are still the most marketable.Shang Bining turned a few screens and smiled.

Shen Yue tentatively asked: "You cue him just now, did you discuss this?"

Without raising his head, Shang Bining replied, "No."

Shen Yue exhaled and nodded: "That's quite a coincidence."

Shang Bining stopped and said, "No."

Shen Yue has been with him for many years, and after hearing this, she sorted it out and came up with an idea, saying, "When you released the new album preview, you knew he would like it, so you cue him just now?"

Shang Bining said, "Almost."

Shen Yue asked: "What if he didn't like you?"

Shang Bining said: "Comments and likes are the same."

Shen Yue: "..."

You are quite confident.

Shang Bining paused for a moment, and then said, "Even if he doesn't do anything, I'm just beginning, almost."

The implication is that it is his intention to interact publicly and remotely.

Of course, all of this was planned when the two works of "The World" and "White Tiger" were going on as usual.But now the situation is very different, the relationship between the two has changed, he withdrew from "White Tiger", and "The World" was suddenly put on the release schedule...

Thinking of this, Shen Yue was startled.

Shen Yue asked: "You said that the release of "The World" was strongly requested by New York. Are you trying to fool me?"

Most of Shang Bining's personal music is original. In terms of production, he has been cooperating with the American team, and every time he spends a lot of money on the final presentation of the music.He seemed to have thought that Shen Yue would ask this point a long time ago, and as soon as the voice fell over there, he answered.

He said: "Of course they made a strong request. This album is made with such care and investment. If it is not released, the loss will be too great. Don't you repeatedly use it to persuade me?"

Shang Bining initially formed a personal team, registered as a studio, and affiliated with the platform behind the draft at that time.At that time, the platform gave him an agent.But not long after, the studio was transformed into a joint-stock company, and Chi Zao also invested in the shares.The agent quit his team because he disagreed with his ideas and it was too difficult to manage him.

Afterwards, he never found a special manager. For so many years, Shen Yue was the assistant who had been with him for the longest time. It is customary to say that he was a life assistant, but in fact, he shouldered more of the responsibilities of a manager.

But Shang Bining has too much desire to control his career, and he is more and more used to making his own decisions.Therefore, her role as an agent was performed without embarrassment. The link of "If you don't persuade me repeatedly" does exist, but it is useless.

Now Shang Bining brings this point out to practice Tai Chi, which is extremely perfunctory.

Shen Yue knew in her heart that he just didn't want to admit that Chi Zao had something to do with releasing "The World" again.She had already learned not to uselessly argue with Monk Bining, so she pursed the corners of her lips, gave up asking, and only sighed in her heart, "It's too late."

Shen Yue said: "It's up to you. But it's better to stop before it's too late."

Shang Bining lowered his eyes, screwed on the lid of the cup, and said, "I have my plan, don't worry."

"Don't worry" said the three words gently, even slightly comforting tenderness, Shen Yue felt a little scared after hearing this.Shang Bining often makes unexpected decisions, and he often doesn't like to tell anyone about this part.The former manager thought he was difficult to manage, because he just couldn't stand the stimulation.

Shen Yue has been with him for several years, and she also feels that her psychological endurance has improved a lot.

Shang Bining screwed on the lid of the cup, put down the cup, and went to take another shot.Shen Yue looked at his back feeling a little helpless, and secretly sighed that this person might not be lonely and become a demon, who could come and drag him and drag him back to the bustling world.

Maybe, not nobody can.

After the day's short film shots were all finished, Shang Bining finished his work, and on the way back to Rongxi Garden, he asked the driver to drive the car to the entrance of the alley near the Dance Academy.Shen Yue knew at a glance that he was going to a Chinese medicine shop in the alley to buy medicine for Chi Zao.

When he was looking at his phone on the set in the afternoon, he probably swiped Chi Zao's repost.

When others looked at that photo, they could only see that Chi Zao was thin and haggard.But he knew that Chi Zao was ill.Even though they had been married for three years with less gathering and more separation, they had spent time together day and night. He knew better than anyone else what Chi Zao was like every time he got sick.

Let's go, Shang. Qingsheng himself. Bining.

Shen Yue shook her head, got out of the car and followed him.

The two walked to the small pharmacy together.It's been cold these days, and the thick curtains at the door of the shop were drawn down to cover them tightly.Before Shang Bining could go in, he heard Shu Xiaoxiao's voice coming from inside.

Shu Xiaoxiao was probably ordering medicine with the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine at the pharmacy, and she couldn't explain clearly, entangled in whether she wanted black pearls or white pearls for pearl powder.Shang Bining opened the curtain and went in, and the scene was roughly as he had imagined.It's just that the person guarding the shop is not an old man, but only a young apprentice, so it's no wonder that he can't judge what Shu Xiaoxiao wants.

The curtain was lifted to let in the light, Shu Xiaoxiao subconsciously glanced at the door, saw that it was Shang Bining, she was startled at first, then overjoyed, she came over with her hands clasped for help.

Shu Xiaoxiao said: "Mr. Ning, you came just in time. Brother Zao started coughing after the show today, and the pearl powder at home is all used up. I'm not familiar with this. I didn't know whether it was black pearls or white pearls. You Let's make sure."

Shang Bining directly said to the little apprentice behind the medicine cabinet: "Grind Hainan white pearl powder for 2000 yuan, and take two bottles of dried snake gallbladder, the older ones."

Shu Xiaoxiao immediately urged the apprentice: "Please hurry up, the patient needs it urgently."

Hearing this, Shang Bining frowned unconsciously.The alley was narrow and small, and there were few people there. In addition, it was already late, so he was not wearing a hat, and the expression on his face was clearly visible.Shu Xiaoxiao is usually a bit stupid, but she has a pretty good ability to read faces.

She quickly explained and comforted her: "Actually, it's not that serious, Mr. Ning, you don't have to worry so much. Brother Zao said that this is his old problem, and it can be cured with the medicine."

Shang Bining nodded: "I know."

He knew Chi Zao's body very well.From the look on his face in the photo, he knew that he was not ill. He looked fine when he was struggling, but he would start coughing when he relaxed, which was the result of long-term accumulation of internal heat.Old snake gallbladder with pearl powder is a folk recipe taught by Shang Bining's grandfather.Every time you get sick, you will be alive and well after taking it three times.

He also remembered that there was not much medicine at home, and it might not be enough this time, so he came here to get some medicine.

Grinding pearl powder takes some time.Shang Bining stood silently in the pharmacy for a while, then turned his head and gestured to Shen Yue.Shen Yue took out thousands of dollars in cash from her bag and put them on the counter.

Shang Bining asked Shu Xiaoxiao: "Does he have any plans for the future?"

Shu Xiaoxiao quickly replied: "In "Evening Fragrance", his part is basically gone, only some corners and corners. The director said that he can shoot together when he shoots the supplementary recording. Mr. He means to let him kill him. Qing rested for a while... But, isn't there a platform for IN's house tomorrow night? Right now, the itinerary is relatively close, and he wants to hurry up, just for this platform."

Shang Bining said, "Yes."

Shu Xiaoxiao wasn't sure what he meant by "um", so she didn't dare to say more.

Seeing that Shen Yue had finished paying the bill, Shang Bining turned around and walked outside.

Shen Yue left a word of concern for the boss: "Let Brother Zao have a good rest, if you don't want to go to the platform, you can push it."

Shu Xiaoxiao asked: "Ah? Then who will go?"

Shen Yue had a "what do you say" expression.

Shu Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and couldn't believe it, so she leaned closer to Shen Yue and whispered, "Although this is their shared resource, but this time the platform official has announced it, he pushes it, and the fans will tear him apart..."

Shang Bining and Chi Zao shared many resources, and this started before their group disbanded.This is not a secret in the industry, and there are many people in the fan circle who can see it, but it is not something that has been clearly announced.The fan circle is huge and complicated, and the most sensitive resource competition is almost inevitable.

Shen Yue snorted softly and said, "Do you think Mr. Ning cares about this?"

Shu Xiaoxiao: "...Oh."

Only fans are tearing up, but everyday.Six long years, more than a hundred battles.Even if you care, how can you care.

Shang Bining and Shen Yue left the alley and got into the car.The car that was going in the direction of Rongxi Garden turned around.While telling the driver to find a road with less traffic and rush to the CBD as soon as possible, Shen Yue called the person in charge of the event at IN's house.
