"I..." Fang Lin pinched the phone and made an unconscious voice.
Duan Changke was very considerate and gave him enough time to digest, adapt and think.
Looking back now, it seems to be the case, Fang Lin thought, when Duan Changke asked him to come up to get hangover soup, and mentioned Director Rong, it seemed that he deliberately wanted to bring the topic to this matter.
But I just finished my mental construction, and my whole body is still in a hot-headed state. I can’t listen to anything. I don’t drink hangover soup. I am stubborn and self-willed. Even though my earlobes turn red when I touch them due to nervousness, I still want to take the initiative. Leaned up to kiss him.
There was no suggestion in Duan Changke's tone at that time, and it even sounded a little cold.
just me, just me...
Kind of absurd, but also kind of reasonable.
He delivered it to the door himself, he has nothing in front of Duan Changke, and the other party doesn't need to be a good person all the time, after the sentence "you said it", he simply let him implement the relationship together.
"Fang Lin." After a while, he heard Duan Changke say, "Are you angry?"
"...No." Fang Lin said truthfully in a low voice, "It's just a little... accidental."
The other party responded noncommittally, and it seemed that he didn't intend to explain more after telling the truth.
It wasn't until Fang Lin thought he was going to hang up the phone that he heard the other party call his name again: "Fang Lin."
"You can be more confident."
Fang Lin was startled: "Yes."
"As for signing Hailin..." He heard Duan Changke say unhurriedly, "You got the role based on your ability, and I believe the follow-up development will not be too bad."
"... Mmm." Now he only knows how to respond mechanically.
He heard Duan Changke's background becoming noisy, but the other party's voice remained calm: "Is there anything else?"
Even if the other party couldn't see it, he subconsciously shook his head: "No more."
"Okay, then I'll hang up." Duan Changke responded very simply, and did not politely say to cheer up or work hard.
"President Duan." Fang Lin grabbed his phone and called him just before he heard the busy tone.
The other party didn't speak, but the call was on hold.
In the silence, Fang Lin suddenly felt a short-term uncontrollable sadness.
This emotion didn't stay for long, so he just blinked his eyes and suppressed it.
So what if Duan Changke said so.
Even if his ability is really recognized, he deserves the role, and the follow-up development will be bright... so what.
He wouldn't get better because of this reason in his previous life, and it's the same now.
Even if it's just a little bit, it's always a little bit.
Without Duan Changke's seemingly flirtatious words, everything would be the same as before. Meng Jinyu got the role and continued to become popular, but he would still be stuck in endless waiting without being known by anyone.
Duan Changke was not wrong at all, and even gave him enough dignity so that he would not be so humble even in this relationship of attachment and demand.
"Then our relationship..." His voice softened a little, "Can we continue?"
He heard Duan Changke smile: "Didn't you already sit down?"
"That's fine." Fang Lin slowly put his mind back, and said whatever came to mind, "I just want to see you all of a sudden."
"Why," he heard Duan Changke say, "want to develop some emotional relationship with the benefactor?"
"No." Fang Lin also said, "I just want to say thank you in person."
Although Duan Changke didn't need it.
"I won't bother you anymore," he took the initiative to end the topic, "this time I'm really dead."
He thought for a while and said, "Good night."
The other party said "hmm" and hung up the phone.
The next few days of filming went on as usual, Rong Jiu was still sharp, he should be strict and comforted, but everyone got used to it, so they were considerate and understood. Under the high-frequency and loud guidance of the other party, Jiao Ze, the second male lead, finally got into the play, and began to be able to catch the opponent's play without making frequent mistakes. Rong Jiu still likes Fang Lin very much, and he has stricter requirements on him. If he doesn't act well, he yells equally, and when he passes one, he praises him without hesitation.
After getting along for a long time, Fang Lin also became close to the actors in the same group. He would have supper with Chu Chen at night. Sometimes Jiao Ze came to ask him about the play and he would patiently analyze it together. The staff buy some water and snacks. However, Lan Peirou has some exceptions. Fang Lin always thought that the actors in this kind of literary and artistic films are goddess-level, and they are not easy to get close to, but Lan Peirou is not. Race against the clock to watch.
He hasn't contacted Duan Changke these days, and the other party basically doesn't look for him. There was only one time when his driver happened to pass by their crew when he was going out. Duan Changke called him and said he had something for him. Seeing his benefactor, he received a watch instead.
Duan Changke's secretary had a very formulaic expression: "It's a gift from the brand, and Mr. Duan said I'll give you a piece."
Fang Lin knew that Duan Changke would not accept this kind of thing if it was returned, so he accepted it without much burden, asked the secretary to say hello for him, and asked Duan Changke if he was busy recently.
When he asked, he felt that he had exceeded the rules again, and quickly explained that he had no other meaning.
His secretary smiled ambiguously, and the answer was the same: "Mr. Duan has been quite fulfilled recently."
Then he added something pointedly: "The main reason is that the set is too far from the urban area."
Fang Lin just smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
Duan Changke seemed to be very casual, and didn't deliberately conceal the relationship between the two of them from his subordinates and the driver, so these people also imagined Fang Lin as a little lover who took the initiative to climb the bed, revealing a little hint from time to time, but not many.
Fang Lin didn't want to make corrections, anyway, these NPCs didn't think wrongly.
Tao Le was taken aback as usual when he put on the watch given by Duan Changke, but since Fang Lin has been being praised recently, he has been surrounded by happiness, and he will not talk about Fang Lin spending money randomly—anyway, his artist is going to be popular, so how much Packing itself isn't a bad thing either.
Soon everyone got along with each other for half a month. During this half month, the crew's announcements were not idle. First, they cut out some of the actors' shooting highlights these days and put them on the official blog to attract a wave of attention. Because of this Every script comes with its own traffic, and you don't need to buy hot searches to get to the back row.
"I'm dying of laughter, why is Xiaolan so cute! I watch it every day!"
"Help, are all of you literature and art cafes so cute? I'm in love."
"It's so serious, I want to ask for a sister's book list."
"I want to know the book list +1"
"Xiao Lan, do you want to see the crispy duck? I think..."
"No, you don't want to go upstairs."
"Chu Chen is so handsome! Ah, just watching the tidbits makes my heart flutter, and I'm looking forward to it crazily."
"When I think of Jinghe, I feel distressed. I believe that Chu Chen can perform well."
"Does anyone think that Jingchuan is also very good-looking! Although he is not well-known, he just looks very comfortable. Fans of this book agree."
"Me too!! I hope my little brother can become popular with this drama, and I'm going to start cultivating new artists."
"It's just around the corner to develop, I haven't felt this way for a long time, I'm a little excited."
"That's it? There are a lot of looks in the entertainment industry, and I don't know which rich uncle or aunt has found a position, tsk tsk."
"It's good to choose a vase role."
"They're here, they're here, but they've just taken a character that your brother doesn't have and have been biting until now, so the hatred won't disappear, right?"
"Run, Meng Jinyu fans have arrived at the battlefield."
"? Meng Jinyu is filming in the group, don't cue and don't bring rhythm, thank you."
The more discussions on the Internet, the more everyone looks forward to the finished product. Naturally, the crew will not let go of such an opportunity. Soon there will be news that "Gentle Moonlight" will open its first fan tour.
Chu Chen and Lan Peirou have always been very popular, so they are used to it, so they didn't take it to heart, and just asked the assistant to buy gifts and snacks, and distribute them when fans come. Seeing that they were so calm, Fang Lin thought it was just arranging for a few big fans of each family to come and take pictures and go through the motions.
Tao Le is very conscious of being the assistant of "Future Popular Artist". He is even more excited than Fang Lin, and keeps asking "Why don't I go shopping too, in case we have a share too".
Fang Lin looked at the gifts prepared by the other companies with peace of mind, and only focused on the script.
As a result, when he saw a group of fans holding banners in line for several hours the next day, he realized that he was not as calm as he thought.
The fans who came to visit the class were very young and very excited, holding gifts in their hands, taking pictures and punching cards in groups, and then waiting in line for autographs.
The autograph session is not mandatory. Lan Peirou only asked his assistant to prepare gifts, but he has no plans to sign autographs for fans. Chu Chen and Jiao Ze are willing to sit down for business and sign autographs for fans who came to line up. Jiao Ze will also write to fans to sign, trying his best to satisfy the wishes of the girls.
Fang Lin looked at it for a while, thinking that he would have a transition scene later, so he planned to prepare first.
Just as he was about to talk to Tao Le, he heard several voices calling him not far away.
He turned around following the sound and found that it was some girls who saw him coming and waved to him, calling his name enthusiastically: "Can you give us two minutes?"
Fang Lin pointed to himself, as if he didn't quite believe it: "Me?"
"Yeah yeah," one of the girls asked, "can you sign us?"
"Because the crew didn't tell you that you can't sign, so I came to ask you," the other party took out a small notebook, "I'm very sorry if you don't want to!"
"Oh, yes." Fang Lin took a pen to sign for them, and when they returned the notebook, the other party wanted to take a photo with them, and he nodded and agreed.
The girl who wanted to sign just now looked very happy: "I, I want to say..."
"Actually, I followed you when you first debuted, but your drama was not finished at that time, and I didn't see your name very often..." Her face turned a little red because she was a little nervous, " At that time, I really hoped that you would become popular, and I even left you a message on Weibo."
The other girls were very straightforward: "We are not, we saw it on Weibo, and we have a good impression of you!"
The first girl continued: "But we like you a lot anyway!"
Hearing this, Fang Lin stood for a while, looking a little dazed, and after a few seconds, he tugged on Tao Le's sleeve, and asked uncomfortably, "Have you prepared any presents?"
He didn't expect that he would have...
Tao Le coughed triumphantly, and actually took out a few gadgets and distributed them to these girls: "Thank you for supporting us Fang Lin! I will continue to like him in the future!"
Several girls took it happily: "Yes! You will get better and better! We will always support you, come on!"
After the girls left, Fang Lin seemed to come back to his senses and continued walking towards the venue.
Tao Le said: "You still told me not to prepare, luckily I didn't listen to you, otherwise the little girl would go back empty-handed."
He looked at Fang Lin and continued, "Although there are only a few people this time, it doesn't matter. Let's take our time and there will be more in the future... Lin, what's wrong with you?"
After being called out by him, Fang Lin recovered from his dazed state, and said "ah", "it's nothing."
He just suddenly remembered what Duan Changke had said when he called Duan Changke half a month ago.
Duan Changke is not a person who can pour chicken soup, and the other party's attitude is not very warm.
He accepts all his love and hugs, and does not intend to give up his desires, and maintains such a relationship that outsiders see as somewhat disgraceful.
But he respects him enough.
He also said, Fang Lin, you can be more confident.
