On February 2th, the second day of the Lunar New Year, at 20:9 p.m., Fan Cheng and Xie Yunzhi sat side by side in the business class of the flight from the capital to Shanghai. Fell asleep.For some reason, the business class of this flight was very empty, and there were no other passengers around Fan Cheng and Xie Yunzhi.

Five minutes passed, and Xie Yunzhi didn't turn a page of the book, and her mind was churning.After a while, she sighed and simply closed the e-book device.She turned her head to look at Fan Cheng, and said softly:

"Ah Cheng, are you asleep?"

Fan Cheng opened his eyes in response, shook his head, and then asked, "What's wrong?"

"You're not happy." Xie Yunzhi said, "I haven't spoken all the time."

Fan Cheng also sighed, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Is this the same way you participated in such public-facing activities before?"

"No, I've never hyped up like this with anyone else..." Xie Yunzhi replied nervously.

"I know, that's not what I meant." Fan Cheng held her hand reassuringly, "I just feel that this press conference was a bit of a failure. It seems that everyone's focus is not on the work. We keep saying that we should pay attention to the work, Don't let the audience's attention be distracted by the speculation of CP, but this press conference is obviously contrary to the concept of our drama. Today I can feel the feeling of being manipulated by capital. What the sponsor said to do, we I really have to do it. Did the dramas you participated in before have this kind of manipulation by capital?"

A helpless smile appeared on the corner of Xie Yunzhi's lips, and instead he held Fan Cheng's hand, leaning against her body, and said softly:

"Of course there are, there are countless. What I can do is to let myself get used to these things. Even if I see them, encounter them, and feel uncomfortable, I still try to ignore my feelings. Our industry, this circle, itself It is a complex circle in which a large amount of capital is exchanged with intangible products. The products we produce are cultural products, not physical manufacturing industries, which can be seen and touched. The value of cultural products depends entirely on the attention of the public. High attention This is the simplest and most intuitive measure. Furthermore, even the producers must be divided into high and low levels. The most obvious thing is that stars are divided into three or six or nine grades, which are distinguished by red and not red. , The concept of red and not red has been replaced by whether the traffic is large, whether it can bring goods, and the fig leaf is no longer needed. Such a situation was gradually created under compromise. But fortunately, this is not absolute. The value of a real artist does not apply to this kind of measurement, in other words, it does not apply to business. It belongs to culture and The core property of the spirit with the richest handed down value. In today’s rapid development, too many people are blinded by money, and they can no longer see the purest artist behind this kind of business.”

Fan Cheng sighed again and did not speak.

"Ah Cheng, don't you want to attend this kind of event in the future?" Xie Yunzhi asked worriedly. She wanted to ask Fan Cheng this question as soon as she withdrew from the conference stage in the afternoon.In fact, what she was more worried about was not that Fan Cheng didn't want to attend this kind of event, but that Fan Cheng was tired of this circle.This circle is the battlefield that Xie Yunzhi has been fighting for, and she doesn't want to leave this circle so early. If Fan Cheng leaves the circle, it may even affect their relationship.

Fan Cheng smiled wryly and said, "I feel like I have no choice. Whether I want to or not, I've already been tied to a chariot. Believe it or not, when we get off the plane and turn on our phones, Weibo may have gone viral."

Fan Cheng was right. The press conference was broadcast live on the Penguin video website. Within a few hours after the press conference ended, the entire live video was uploaded and updated simultaneously with the first and second episodes of "Shadow Chaser".According to the monitoring data of the video website, the number of views of "Shadow Chaser" has shown an exponential increase, and the video of the press conference has not lost the content of the main episode.In the evening of that day, all major media, mainly on Weibo, collectively sent "Shadow Chaser" to the top of the trending searches, and almost all the Internet was swiped by "Shadow Chaser".In fact, neither Penguin Video nor Central Film has invested so much in publicity. This is entirely the tap water effect.This drama won a good reputation before it went online, and once it went live, it ignited the entire online world.Netizens have said that it is like watching a movie, and the excellent production is completely the texture of the movie.

After Fan Cheng and Xie Yunzhi's plane arrived in Shanghai, as soon as they got off the plane, they called their family members to report that they were safe, and then opened Weibo to check the news.As soon as the two opened Weibo, their eyes were full of 99+. A large number of people posted comments on their Weibo. The promotional Weibo they posted after the press conference had been reposted a lot.At the same time, "Shadow Chaser" directly soared to the first place in the hot search list, while "Orange Juice CP" unexpectedly appeared in the second place.And in the comments on their Weibo, there are a large number of people who use CP, as if overnight, the whole Weibo knows the existence of their brand new Lily CP.

Fan Cheng made an astonishing move at this time. She directly turned off her mobile phone and stuffed it into the bottom pocket of her backpack.Xie Yunzhi looked at her in surprise, and heard her say:

"We've finished our publicity mission. It's the Spring Festival holiday now, so don't read those news. I just told the publishing house and Sister Lu that they won't come to us during this time."

Xie Yunzhi laughed when she heard the words. She simply opened WeChat and left a message to her manager Chen Danran, saying that she would completely disappear in the next few days. After Chen Danran replied OK, she also followed Fan Cheng's example and turned off her phone up.

Fan Cheng took out an elderly mobile phone from nowhere, the kind with super-large buttons and the phone that would report the number when calling, and said with a smile:

"In the next few days, you will follow me every step of the way. Let's use this mobile phone to contact my parents."

"Pfft, you actually used grandpa's phone..." Xie Yunzhi burst out laughing.

This mobile phone for the elderly is the old mobile phone of Mr. Fan Jinxi Fan.On New Year's Eve, Fan Cheng gave the old man a brand new smartphone, and spent a lot of time teaching the old man how to use the smartphone.After Fan Cheng and Xie Yunzhi returned to the capital on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the task of teaching the elderly to use a smartphone was taken over by the Fan family who stayed at home with the elderly.This old machine that was eliminated somehow ended up in Fan Cheng's hands.Xie Yunzhi thought that this guy must have done it on purpose, and she had planned it long ago.

The time to leave the airport was past 11:[-] p.m., which was very late, so Fan Cheng simply took a taxi with Xie Yunzhi and went to the hotel where his parents had been staying for the past few days.When the two arrived at the hotel drowsily in the night, it was almost twelve o'clock at night.The two got out of the car to pick up their luggage, entered the hotel lobby, and saw Xie Sheng sitting in the lobby smoking a cigarette.

"Dad?" Xie Yunzhi was surprised, "Why are you waiting here and staying up so late? Didn't I tell you that we have arrived?" After getting off the plane, Xie Yunzhi called her parents to tell them they were safe, telling them to go to bed early and not wait. .

"I can't sleep, so I might as well go downstairs and wait for you to come back." Xie Sheng smiled kindly, and pinched out the cigarette in the ashtray by the way.

Uncle Xie, didn't you sleep well?Fan Cheng thought to himself.

Dad, who fell asleep like this, can't fall asleep?Xie Yunzhi thought.

Xie Sheng seemed to have something to say, but probably because it was inconvenient for Fan Cheng to be there, he didn't say it in the end.The three of them took the elevator back to the room together.

"Dad, Fan Cheng and I have turned off our mobile phones. If you need anything in the next few days, you can call us on Grandpa Fan's old phone number." When he reached the door of the room, Xie Yunzhi said to his father.

"Did something happen at the press conference?" Xie Sheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"No, it's just that the new drama is a bit too popular, and I'm afraid people will disturb it. We don't take vacations and travels here, how annoying it is to have people come to bother you all the time." Xie Yunzhi smiled.

Xie Sheng seemed a little unexpected, just when Fan Cheng and Xie Yunzhi said goodnight to him and was about to enter the door, he quietly patted Fan Cheng who was behind Xie Yunzhi, and said softly at a volume that only Fan Cheng could hear:

"Xiao Fan, come to my room later when you have a chance."

After he quickly finished speaking, he smiled and watched Fan Cheng enter the room.Fan Cheng was surprised, she thought Xie Sheng wanted to talk to Xie Yunzhi, but she didn't expect that he was actually looking for her.She tried her best to keep her expression tight, not showing her secrets in front of Xie Yunzhi.

About 10 minutes later, while Xie Yunzhi was taking a shower, Fan Cheng slipped out of the room and came to the door of Xie Sheng and Liang Yun's room, and saw that the door was ajar.She quietly opened the door, and saw that the lights in the room were dim, only the porch light was on, and Xie Sheng sat quietly on the porch with his arms folded, obviously waiting for Fan Cheng.Liang Yun in the house probably fell asleep and did not appear.

Seeing Fan Cheng coming to him, Xie Sheng gestured for them to go out and talk.Then the two quietly left the room, Xie Shengxu closed the door, and went to the stairwell at the end of the corridor with Fan Cheng.

"Uncle Xie?" Fan Cheng was a little puzzled, it was so late, why did Xie Sheng need to tell him so urgently.

"Xiao Fan, Uncle watched the live broadcast of your new drama launch conference today." Xie Sheng said something amazing when he came up, which scared Fan Cheng.Fan Cheng didn't know how to respond for a while, so he froze on the spot.

"Don't worry, it's just my uncle secretly watching it alone. Sigh... I really wronged you for doing this kind of thing with me. Our family, Zhizhi, is good at everything, but the job I chose is not good. In fact, I have never hoped She entered the entertainment industry, I hope she can live a peaceful and happy life. But this is the path she wants to take. As a father, I choose to support her. But now she has involved you again, it is really... I never I have been very worried and worried since the afternoon.”

Fan Cheng didn't know what to say, so he could only shake his head and said, "What are you talking about, there's nothing wrong with it."

Xie Sheng pondered for a while, and seemed to have finally considered his wording, and then he spoke carefully and said:

"If, I mean, if in the future, Zhizhi's career brings bad influence to her, or even to you, so that it seriously affects the scope of private life. I hope you can accompany her by her side...Of course this It is up to you to decide, and I will not force you. But as a father, I have been worried about whether she can survive in this circle all these years. To be honest, I always hope that she can give up as soon as possible, and I can too Take a sigh of relief as soon as possible. She is with you these days, and she looks much happier and more cheerful. If there is such a day, maybe she will need your company and support more."

Xie Sheng's words were very tactful, but Fan Cheng quickly understood his subtext.It seems that Uncle Xie already knew about her relationship with Xie Yunzhi, otherwise he wouldn't have said such things to her.Xie Sheng said this with two meanings, one is to hope that Fan Cheng can help persuade Xie Yunzhi to fade out of the entertainment circle as soon as possible, and the other is to hope that Fan Cheng can always be by Xie Yunzhi's side to support her career.These two wishes seem to be contradictory, but they are actually unified. This is his most sincere entrustment to Fan Cheng as a father for his beloved daughter.Fan Cheng can understand the reason why he sneakily said these words to himself tonight. I am afraid that the Xie family sincerely hopes that Xie Sheng will be the only one who quits the circle of Xie Yunzhi. Whether it is Liang Yun or Xie Yunzhi, their strong mentality makes their lives always focus on hard work, which is difficult. Will back down or admit defeat.Xie Sheng's attitude towards Fan Cheng was somewhat resistant before, with the meaning of testing, but during the two days of contact, he did not know when he accepted Fan Cheng, so that now he even thought of entrusting his daughter for life.Fan Cheng's heart stirred up waves, and she couldn't help being moved. She pursed her lips, and then seriously replied:

"Don't worry, no matter what happens in the future, I will never leave!"
