The bullet screen on the screen was flashing fast, Yu Nian was looking carefully, but his eyes suddenly stopped for a moment - he could see clearly, the bullet screen that just crossed over read, "Every year someone says you are competing with You You for a movie Theme song, is it real?"
And not only this one, but several similar comments appeared one after another. Yu Nian continued to chat with his usual face, without giving an answer.
Twenty minutes later, the live broadcast ended, and Yu Nian called Meng Yuan, "Brother Meng, is there something wrong with the promotion of the song?"
Meng Yuan was surprised, "You know?"
"Well, I saw it on the bullet screen during the live broadcast just now, and someone was asking me if I was competing with You You for resources." Yu Nian asked, "Isn't the crew yet to come up with the final result?"
"Yes, the final candidate should be announced tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. On our side, I just mentioned one thing to you. You may have to be mentally prepared that you won't be able to compete with Youyou. I haven't even mentioned the other things about Shirou. Don't Urgent, I'll check the situation and call you back later."
Yu Nian opened Weibo and took a look, and found that under his Weibo, fans of Youyou had already come to leave messages, and the words were not much different. His own fans responded, and quickly posted hundreds of replies.
Ten minutes later, Meng Yuan called back and cut straight to the point, "It's the news from Youyou."
Yu Nian didn't understand, "Is it because they have already obtained the definite result?"
"No, it should be like me, relying on the rumors heard from your contacts, I'm sure you haven't competed with Youyou. But for some reason, a few fans over there also know the news. After knowing it, you will join the support club The fan base of the company talked about it, and even told everyone not to spread it.”
Meng Yuan was a little speechless, "But as long as one person can't help spreading the word about this kind of thing, it's impossible to stop it later. But maybe Youyou also thinks that it's all settled, one day sooner or later, it doesn't make any difference. Just didn't stop it."
Yu Nian understood, and then recalled the contents of the barrage and some of the comments he saw, and said strangely, "So they are...pushing?"
"That's right." Meng Yuan affirmed, "I don't know if it was the instruction of You You's team, but his fans are indeed stepping on your hype, and even ignored He Junyu directly. Competing with Youyou for resources, if you don't survive a round, you will be crushed."
Yu Nian wasn't angry, but laughed instead, "Have I reached this level yet?"
Meng Yuan also laughed, "Hey, you are a little bit proud? But you have indeed reached this level. Among the newcomers, Youyou's fans don't even look up to He Junyu, and they don't mention him by name, they only bully you. It proves that you are popular."
The two laughed together, Meng Yuan stopped laughing, and then warned, "You don't need to do anything now, just pretend you don't know, just Youyou's fans are talking nonsense, if you come out and say something, you will be pulled Just give them heat for free."
Yu Nianying came down and hung up the phone. After knowing what was going on, he didn't take it to heart. He prepared a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote a few pages seriously.
However, the speed of development of things is much faster than they imagined.
Before Yu Nian went to sleep, Xia Mingxi sent several links, followed by a series of exclamation marks and a voice.
"What's wrong with this Youyou? Buying the manuscript to pull you down to imply that you are not as good as him? You almost put these words on it as a news headline! What the hell are you doing such a shameless thing?"
Yu Nian looked at the time, "Mingxi, are you just going to be in the show?" He remembered that Xia Mingxi only mentioned yesterday that he would be shooting night scenes in these two days.
"I haven't downloaded it yet, and it wasn't my turn to take pictures, so I found a corner to play with my phone, but as soon as I turned on my phone, I was so full of anger from Youyou's garbage operation! I can hardly eat supper!"
Hearing that he was very angry, Yu Nian smiled and comforted him, "It's true that I didn't fight, it's also a fact, don't be angry, if you get angry too much, you will become ugly."
Hearing Yu Nian's tone, Xia Mingxi calmed down a little, "Okay, then remember to talk to Brother Meng to see if you want to control the wind direction. It's good, his team's topic is very hot, and the fans are also fans. What is more is the sense of superiority of the gods, this time they even took aim at you!"
Realizing that Xia Mingxi was going to blow up again while talking, Yu Nian hurriedly said, "Hurry up to film, or memorize the script, and I won't play with my phone tonight."
Xia Mingxi snorted twice, "Okay, I will try my best to control my hands."
Two minutes after Xia Mingxi hung up, Meng Yuan called.
Yu Nian said first, "Brother Meng, I saw the news."
Meng Yuan was also not in a good mood, "I'll tell you how his fans knew about it. Most likely he revealed it 'accidentally' on purpose, and then the fans guided him, and when the fans got excited, they jumped around. Seeing that the heat got a little better, he hurried to leave Bringing up the topic, I’ve seen four of the press releases! They really don’t miss any chance to mess with it!”
Yu Nian's smile faded a little, "They should be ready for hot searches, right?"
"Ninety-nine percent! There must be more than one position!"
Lying on the bed, Yu Nian stared at the white ceiling in a daze for two seconds, and said, "I will become very powerful in the future."
Meng Yuan understood, "Yeah, if you become very powerful, you won't be trampled on again."
Meng Yuan immediately changed his tone again, "Don't be burdened, sleep well, I'll check the situation later, don't worry."
Yu Nian should have agreed, but he couldn't fall asleep, so he just continued to read the news on his phone.
Click on the link Xia Mingxi sent him. It's a building built in a forum.
"—Disgusting! Anyone in your family who wants to publicize it should publicize it well. Can you stop bringing Niannian? Are you sick?"
"—Pure passer-by, I didn't say it, Yu Nian was just a few days ago when Tian Lai was popular, and once the show ended, it was completely cold! How many people still know who he is? Besides Youyou, at least my mother knows that there is this number people."
"—It's very fun to pretend to be a passer-by upstairs? Can you be more professional and change your profile picture first? It's almost like writing in red pen that I'm squid shreds! Don't make me feel like you have x in your head!"
"Take away Niannian, who did we provoke by singing Niannian quietly? And, Youyou Company has ended, there is nothing to wash! I believe in the return of evil forces! You are not afraid of falling to death by pulling and stepping?"
"—I know that you, You Youhong, are out of the solar system, you just have to entertain yourself, don't get involved with our family, understand?"
The heat of this matter did not reach the level of explosion, but it continued until noon the next day.
When Meng Yuan and Yu Nian had lunch together, their faces were still dark. But after answering a phone call, Meng Yuan sat on the chair for a few seconds and suddenly laughed out loud.
Yu Nian put down his chopsticks, "Brother Meng, what's wrong?"
Shi Rou held the spoon and looked at it strangely.
Meng Yuan threw the phone on the table with a "snap" sound, with a cheerful expression on his face, "Their father Meng is dying of laughter! Director Xu called just now, saying that their promotional song will be sung by you."
"Ah?" Yu Nian was also surprised, "Didn't you say you were chosen?"
"The internal information said so, but there is no official announcement. No one can be sure which one they will choose in the end. I looked at it at the time, and it seemed that Producer Ning was optimistic about Youyou, and Director Xu was even more optimistic about you." Meng Yuan continued. Remind Yu Nian, "Remember to call Director Xu later."
After lunch, Yu Nian was in Meng Yuan's office, and according to his business card, he called Xu Xianglan.
Xu Xianglan answered quickly, "Yu Nian?"
Yu Nian smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother Director Xu."
Xu Xianglan found a quieter place, and said in a relaxed voice, "I know what you're after. You really have to thank me for promoting the song. Lao Ning wanted Youyou to sing wholeheartedly, but I didn't agree."
He seemed to take a puff of cigarette, and then said, "I bet you four months later, Biyouhong."
Yu Nian's eyes moved slightly, and he couldn't answer the words for a while.
"I made a bet," Xu Xianglan said with a smile, "So, Yu Nian, work hard and don't let me lose the bet."
Yu Nian's eyes glowed a little, and his tone was firm, "I will definitely not let you lose."
"Okay, young man, you just need to have this spirit!" Xu Xianglan changed the subject, "By the way, is your manager by your side?"
Yu Nian glanced at Meng Yuan, saw Meng Yuan made a gesture before responding, "Yes."
"Then turn on the speakerphone, let's all talk."
Yu Nian opened as he said.
"I just want to ask, Yu Nian, are you interested in filming?"
"Filming?"
As soon as he asked this question, Yu Nian and Meng Yuan were beyond their expectations. They looked at each other, and Meng Yuan answered, "Director Xu, what do you mean?"
Xu Xianglan said it very lightly, "There is a character in my play, a young nobleman from an aristocratic family who came from the imperial city to the frontier, with a white horse and light fur, with a relaxed attitude.
On the day of the audition, Producer Ning and I felt that Yu Nian was very suitable for this role, both in temperament and appearance. But I didn't dare not make a decision right away, I've been thinking about it for the past few days.
There are not many shots of this role, and the shooting time is short. It is actually quite easy, but it is really difficult to find actors if you want to perform something real. So, today I directly ask, do you have this intention? "
Meng Yuan didn't make a decision right away, but said that he needed time to think about it.
Xu Xianglan was not in such a hurry, and hung up the phone after exchanging a few more pleasantries.
Meng Yuan knocked the corner of the phone on the table and asked Yu Nian, "What do you think?"
Yu Nian turned to ask, "Brother Meng, what do you think?"
Meng Yuan analyzed, "Director Xu has a high position in the circle. He has been famous for 20 or 30 years. His movies are several layers, let alone a movie like this one, where money and energy are invested. There are many."
"So this film, even if it doesn't become popular, it can't catch on, right?"
"Yes, Yu Qingdan's heroine is popular anyway, and she still has some appeal." Meng Yuan was uncertain about Yu Nian's attitude and didn't directly make a decision. "My suggestion is to act. Anyway, the shooting time is short and the camera Not much, you can still sing the promotion song justifiably.
And director Xu's movie, even if it's a small supporting role, can outshine the others by a few blocks if it's so forceful. "
Yu Nian gave the bottom line, "I prefer to sing."
Meng Yuan smiled and said, "I know, I won't push you to the road of acting. It's a pity not to sing because of your talent."
Yu Nian responded with a smile, "Well, let's act."
In the afternoon, the official blog of the crew of "Ancient Road" updated the new news about the singing of the promotional song, which directly circled Yu Nian.
Youyou's fans were already ready to celebrate the official announcement. Youyou got good resources, but they didn't expect to take a closer look, and the circle was not Youyou.
"—Fucking hahaha! I suddenly feel sorry for Squid Shredded. After working for so long and dancing for so long, I was slapped in the face by the official blog in a blink of an eye! This capitalized ignorance!"
"—Wow, I can't believe it! Aren't we trampled on the ground and crushed twice every year?"
"—I'm not a fan of the two, but I just wanted to say that yesterday I saw squid shreds jumping so happily that I thought it had been officially announced, so it didn't? But you guys are pulling the protagonist to step on it like this, it's also a very awesome operation! Yes! Blow for half a year."
"—I burst into tears! Fuck, why should Niannian be trampled on by you who despise and slander? I feel sorry for Niannian!"
For a while, Youyou's fans were ridiculed by the crowd.
After scrolling through Weibo, Shi Rou was refreshed, with a smile all over her face, "In order to save their dignity, Youyou's fans have gone to the official blog of the film crew to swipe the screen, claiming that the official must give an explanation, temporarily Changing one's mind and changing people, is there a shady scene behind it?"
She couldn't say a word, "How can I give an explanation? If the official announcement was Youyou at the beginning, and then forced to change it to Niannian, it would make sense to ask for an explanation in this situation. They are messing around like this now, it's quite touching Demeanor."
Meng Yuan sneered from the sidelines, "It's really big face to be a shady man, so they're so sure it's a temporary change of mind? Have you opened your eyes?"
At this time, a news feed suddenly came into his eyes, Shi Rou didn't pay attention, but Yu Nian who was sitting next to him said, "Sister Rourou, can you show me your phone?"
Shi Rou handed over the phone, changed to a tablet and continued to scan.
Yu Nian clicked on the news that was just pushed out, and after only reading the first two lines, he subconsciously suppressed the relaxed smile on his face.
Shi Rou swiped the homepage, and glanced sideways, "... Song Ke, director of the board of directors, a car accident... the rescue failed, and he died at the scene?"
Seeing that the lines of Yu Nian's side face were tense, and even showing a little coldness, she asked cautiously, "Niannian, is this someone you know?"
Yu Nian bent his lips and shook his head, "I don't know."
He returned the phone to Shi Rou, took out his own phone, and searched for relevant news.
Just this afternoon, Song Ke's brakes failed, he broke the guardrail and drove into the river. None of the car, including the driver and assistant, could escape. When they were rescued, they were already dead bodies.
Yu Nian stared at the screen, tightening his fingers.
At the same time, Qu Xiaoran rushed into Xie You's office, closed the door with a "bang", and shut the assistant out.
Standing behind the door, he looked at Xie You who was sitting straight behind the desk, the tip of his nose was sore, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and he asked cautiously, "Xie Xiaoyou, are you... all right?"
At the same time as he asked this sentence, his heart seemed to be jumping out of his chest.
He couldn't remember clearly that Xie You's brother was like this back then, when it rained, the brakes failed, broke the guardrail, and the whole car fell into the river. Including the driver and secretary, they are all dead, and there is no possibility of rescue.
But because no evidence was found, it could only be judged as an accident.
But where are there so many surprises
Xie You felt that the air in the airway had been drawn away, and he felt a sense of suffocation that he didn't know whether it was real or not. He drooped his eyelashes, his eyes fell on the specimen made of rose petals, and he spoke after a long time, with a slightly hoarse voice, "He is warning me."
"What?" Qu Xiaoran took a few steps closer, licked his dry lips, and clenched his fists, "You mean... Ding Zhaoxian?"
"Yeah." Xie You's expression was like a deep pool, without the slightest ripple, and his tone was extremely calm, "I'm starting to do it here. Song Ke's department was cut to pieces by me before, and the older he is The older you are, the less courageous you become. You are afraid and don’t want to help Ding Zhaoxian anymore. Ding Zhaoxian didn’t let him go, and the two had conflicts, and even quarreled at the dinner.”
Qu Xiaoran didn't know that there was something else going on here, goosebumps appeared on his arms, "Well... then what?"
"Song Ke was afraid of me and Ding Zhaoxian, so he wanted to get out of this muddy water. While expressing his attitude and drawing a clear line with Ding Zhaoxian, he transferred assets and prepared to go abroad. It's just obvious that he failed to hide the truth from Ding Zhaoxian, and Ding Zhaoxian I'm not going to let him go."
"So... there was this car accident today?"
"Um."
Xie You's eyes were so cold that he spoke slowly, "He copied my brother's death method to warn me. He wanted to tell me that it wouldn't be difficult for him to kill me. .”
Qu Xiaoran didn't dare to speak.
He suddenly felt that Xie You at this moment was like a bow full of chills.
It is familiar, but also unfamiliar.
Xie You clenched his five fingers until they turned white, then loosened them little by little, and closed his eyes.
After opening it a few seconds later, all the hatred and coldness were hidden in the deepest part, invisible to prying eyes. He looked up at Qu Xiaoran who was at a loss, "I'm fine."
Qu Xiaoran nodded hesitantly, "Yes." He said softly again, "If—"
"I'm fine." Xie You emphasized again, "I'm really fine."
Qu Xiaoran knew that Xie You was suffering, but he knew even more that the Xie You now was no longer the sad one in the past, who would practice the piano for twelve hours straight, and then go to see the stars in a daze.
He didn't come any closer, and said hoarsely, "Call me if you need anything."
Xie You lowered his tone, "Okay."
Yu Nian has always been a little restless. Rejecting Meng Yuan's suggestion to eat supper, he went home directly, sat on the sofa, couldn't help but searched for news related to the Xie family in recent years.
Some hidden and unknown contexts are faintly emerging.
After posting for a while, Yu Nian put the phone aside, took out the ingredients from the refrigerator, cleaned them up, and stewed a pot of soup.
It was nearly eleven o'clock when the doorbell rang.
He almost walked to the door quickly, grabbed the cold doorknob, and opened the door.
He Shan was still standing outside the door.
He Shan repeated the words clearly, "He said, sorry, food delivery is temporarily not available during this time." After speaking, he handed over the small box in his hand.
Yu Nian took the box, and at the same time his guess was confirmed by this sentence, his heart hung high again.
He wanted to ask, is Xie You safe? Will something happen? But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed again.
"Please wait a moment."
While walking inside, Yu Nian opened the box and found a few egg tarts inside. The meringue was slightly burnt, but the smell was very fragrant.
Put down the box, take out the brand-new thermos bucket from the cupboard, fill the chicken soup in Yu Nian, and tighten the lid. After thinking about it, I went to the study again, found a piece of plain paper, dipped a pen into the ink, and wrote four words.
After drying the ink, he folded the paper and hurried to the door again.
Passing the thermos bucket and paper to the visitor, Yu Young said, "I'm sorry."
He Shan nodded and left with his things.
In the study room, the curtains were closed, and only a small lamp on the table was turned on.
In the silent air, Yu Nian's youthful but extremely clear voice circulated. Xie You sat at the table, the dim light created a dark silhouette for his outline, his expression was unclear.
He Shan entered the study, the carpet sucked in the sound of unnecessary footsteps.
Xie You didn't look up, "Did you bring the words?"
"Here we are." He Shan put the thermos and paper on the table, "This is what he asked me to bring back for you."
"understood."
The door of the study room was closed again, Xie You stared at the gray thermos bucket for a long time, then slightly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
After a while, he raised his hand, took the thin paper, and opened it carefully.
There are four words written in ink on it, which are flexible and flowing.
"May you be safe."
Xie You didn't know how long it took him to look at it before he folded it carefully and carefully put it into the inner pocket - the position closest to the heart.
