Salted Fish Doesn’t Want To Work Hard Anymore

The trending search with Hailin's name hung up for a long time before it came down.

But before it became popular, Fang Lin was discussing related matters with people from fashion brands.

The things Duan Changke gave were not simple. The brand that didn’t like to look at people in the first place called people to meet them in person. First, they instilled their brand philosophy, and then summarized their cooperation requirements. Because it is still in the stage of concept proofing, and there is still a long time before it is fully formed and launched, it will almost catch up with the time when the show will start broadcasting.

In general, although he only endorsed one of them, he showed more than that in the contract.

In the end, the two parties reached an agreement, and Fang Lin was still in a daze when he picked up the pen to sign.

Xia Qi is resigning recently. Fang Lin hasn't seen him for a while. Recently, Tao Le volunteered, saying that although he has no resources and connections, he can at least get someone to help.

Fang Lin mentioned Tao Le's matter to Duan Changke, and the other party had no objection, saying that such a trivial matter as being an assistant, he could just do as he liked.

When the person left, Tao Le followed him and poked him: "I didn't say, this is a fashion resource, right? Is Hailin such a coward, that he gave such a big meeting gift as soon as he came?"

Fang Lin didn't raise his head: "I don't know."

"Although I don't really trust you... But I really can't think of any other reasons, so I can only say that Hai Lin is really kind to the newcomers. Lin, we are finally out of the sea of suffering."

Tao Le said happily: "From now on, I will be the superstar's assistant!"

Fang Lin frowned, thinking that his voice was too loud and embarrassing: "Can you keep your voice down?"

"Oh, good," Tao Le nodded congenially, "You know, I even thought that you and Mr. Duan had reached some kind of ulterior and mysterious relationship..."

Hearing what he said, Fang Lin finally looked back at him: "Then why didn't you think so again later?"

Tao Le sighed: "Anyway, I've been with you for so long. I don't know your personality. You don't know what to say, but in fact, if you are willing, you won't be like before."

"...Oh." Fang Lin replied vaguely.

It seems that he did exactly what he told Tao Le a few years ago.

He turned his head back and stopped talking. He originally wanted to jokingly talk about the matter between himself and Duan Changke, but he couldn't speak anymore.

And... after she signed the contract with Hailin, Duan Changke never looked for her again.

Fang Lin also added the other party's WeChat, and once secretly clicked on research, but Duan Changke's WeChat had nothing, and the Moments were visible for three days without posting anything. The background was all black and the profile picture was all white, which looked extremely boring.

He couldn't understand the other party's mind, and he didn't know what the half hug that day was.

While enjoying the dividends he got because of this person, he was so pretentious that he couldn't feel completely at ease.

But he and Duan Changke really have nothing in common, and the other party is not considered an insider, so there is no need to deliberately avoid it, and the two will not have much intersection.

Fang Lin sighed, and couldn't help slowing down a bit, but Tao Le from behind bumped into his back with a "boom"—

"Ahhh!!"

"What's the name of the ghost?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuru

Fang Lin didn't know what he was talking incoherently. When he took out his phone, he heard Tao Le continue howling: "You're on the trending search!"

Tao Le quickly took a screenshot of the content on the hot search list, then returned the photo to the album and set it as a favorite, and even automatically backed it up to the network disk: "My God! My dream is to see your name's last hot search , neither bought nor brushed, we did it!"

Fang Lin had already read the hot search headlines, and his mood was complicated: "What you said is the truth, but it seems that there is nothing to be proud of..."

But it's not that he didn't hear the emotion in Tao Le's tone.

In his previous life, Tao Le always cheered him up. At that time, Hui Yao had already regarded him as an abandoned son, and he never tried to market him. Tao Le always said that we should work harder, and in the future we will be better than those who buy hot searches every day. He is all red, making those netizens annoyed when they open Weibo and see his name all day long.

It's a pity that he didn't go up once until he died.

In any case, for whatever reason, his name was beginning to appear in the sight of strangers.

"However, I think Meng Jinyu's fans are completely offended." Tao Le muttered, "It's amazing. It stands to reason that we really didn't have any issues with him. Why did the two people who had nothing to do with each other suddenly come to me once the topic fermented? Become a sworn enemy."

Fang Lin recalled the Meng Jinyu he met during the audition that day, and the other party frowned from time to time, as if he had a bad temper, but tried hard to pretend to be someone else, he didn't seem like a good person to get along with.

I don't know what he thinks of himself now.

After all, in essence, there doesn't seem to be much difference between the two.

He looked at the huge number of discussions on the phone, and belatedly realized that he dragged Duan Changke and said "I want it" on the first day, and signed the contract with the last one by mistake. How much he brought.

It doesn't make any sense for him to be hypocritical.

"Offend it if you offend it." Fang Lin quit Weibo and said lightly, "It seems that no one has it."

Not a nice guy himself, he thought.

Tao Le didn't hear the last sentence clearly, so he caught up and asked, "Lin, what did you just say?"

Fang Lin just said it out of emotion, but he didn't have the nerve to repeat it, so he left without hesitation.

The first few days before the opening ceremony was the first script reading, and the screenwriter also attached great importance to it. In order to help the actors better enter and understand the roles, the author of the original work was also invited.

All the actors were present, and Fang Lin also met several other leading actors who hadn't been able to see before the photoshoot.

The heroine is played by Lan Peirou, who was born as a child star. She is recognized as one of the new generation of Xiaohua with good acting skills. She has the face of a literary film, and she has won the best actress award for a film she participated in. Supporting roles are what many filmmakers and directors are interested in nowadays.

Her facial features are not amazing, but she is a type that becomes more interesting the more you look at it, and it just fits the personality of the heroine in the play.

Naturally, Chu Chen also came, and bought coffee for the whole group.

Because there are many points that need to be dealt with and paid attention to, it took almost a whole morning just to reorganize the character design, not to mention that the screenwriter had to find out every detail one by one.

The official start was in the afternoon, the indoor air conditioner was fully turned on, and with Chu Chen's coffee, everyone was trying to get rid of the laziness brought about by summer.

Lan Peirou deserves to be born in a literary film. She is very good at dealing with Ji Haiyao's bland and quiet characters. The lines and rhythm are very good, which can make the people who accept the show quickly follow into the state.

Needless to say, Chu Chen was chosen out of thousands of people anyway, so naturally he couldn't make much difference.

The only problem is probably the male number two.

He was a rookie actor named Jiao Ze, and he didn't have much acting experience. The reason why he passed the audition was because the casting director liked his temperament.

It's just that no one expected that the first script reading would be like this.

The director saw that his lines were not fluent, so he endured it twice and finally said: "Xiao Jiao."

"Didn't you read the script carefully before coming here?"

Jiao Ze himself was also very guilty, apologizing repeatedly, saying that he would definitely pay attention next time.

After all, you can't always waste time on one point. After a while, it's the scene between Chu Chen and Fang Lin.

Fang Lin played Chu Chen's younger brother, so after knowing the relationship between his brother and the heroine, he kept it a secret for them, while silently hiding all his emotions so that no one would find out.

Probably because of Jiao Ze's stumbling block, the assistant director took a look at Fang Lin's resume. He was also a young actor with little experience, so he couldn't help but turn his head and say something to the director.

The expression of the director on the side didn't change, he said a few words, probably to reassure the assistant director.

But after all, it's only the male number three, as long as it doesn't break down, it's not a big problem.

As a result, Fang Lin's performance exceeded everyone's expectations in all Jing Chuan's scenes that needed attention.

It's not just that the lines are fluent and error-free, he seems to be able to enter the role by picking up the script. Although he just read around, but in some places where there are few lines, his expression and speech speed can reflect the turning and changing of emotions.

All in all, the reading was not satisfactory, and the assistant director's worried expression was better.

The opening ceremony was the next day. People in the film and television industry are very superstitious. It is essential to worship gods. All the cast and crew were present. This time, Jiao Ze made everyone's afternoon tea, saying that he was apologizing for his performance yesterday. .

The production crew was very efficient, and the accommodation was arranged in a nearby hotel, and the rooms were divided into AB groups. After the opening ceremony, they were ready to start filming.

Fang Lin actually doesn't like this kind of occasion very much. In his opinion, it's better to just sit in the assigned room and memorize the script more.

But he also knew that it was not good to be out of group all the time, so he arrived at the ceremony on time.

The weather was hot and the location was outdoors. Fang Lin started to feel hot after walking a few steps. Just as he asked Tao Le to bring him a small fan, he handed him a glass of chilled mineral water.

"Thank you." Fang Lin was taken aback, and took it from Chu Chen.

"No need." The other party smiled, "I see that your room is very close to mine. I originally wanted to ask you to go out with me, but it seems that you came first, so I'll bring you some ice by the way."

I have to say that Chu Chen is really likable and has no airs. Fang Lin walked and chatted with him casually.

"You performed really well yesterday." Chu Chen raised his face to look at him, "To be honest, I am impressed."

Fang Lin smiled in his heart. After all, he valued this role too much in his previous life. Even though it has been a long time, he has studied it thoroughly and feels that he can easily get it back.

"You are also very good." He took a sip of water and said, "I will take care of you later."

Chu Chen smiled brightly, and called Fang Lin's character name: "It's easy to say, brother Jingchuan."

After the opening ceremony, Fang Lin and Chu Chen chatted speculatively, so that they both reached the hotel entrance, and Chu Chen received a call saying that the whole group had a dinner tonight, so why did the two of them disappear.

"Ah, I'm sorry," Chu Chen said into the phone, "I really didn't pay attention to this matter. I thought we didn't need to attend, so... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we will come soon."

Fang Lin watched Chu Chen hang up the phone, and saw his helpless expression, suddenly Fuzhi understood it in his heart.

"So you don't want to go either..." he said.

Chu Chen sighed: "I didn't mean that when I looked at you. I thought we could just sneak back to the room without reminding either of us, but it didn't work out."

"They said that the director and the producer are here, and the phone calls have come, so I can't go."

Chu Chen smiled like a big boy, and he looked back at Fang Lin: "Let's go, together? I heard that there are investors, so why not offend the money owner's father."

Probably because of his recent relationship with Duan Changke, Fang Lin was particularly sensitive to the word "funder", even though he knew that Chu Chen was only describing the investor of the show.

Wait, the investor of this show...

He frowned.

It was already dark when Chu Chen and Fang Lin arrived.

This is a restaurant with a strong Chinese flavor, exquisite and elegant. It doesn't look very eye-catching from the outside, and it's only when you walk in that you can find something special.

Probably in order not to be disturbed by others, the crew temporarily booked the restaurant, and all the people who came in and out were related personnel.

"I don't want to come, mainly because I don't really want to drink." When he was about to enter the door, Chu Chen whispered to Fang Lin, "I hope I won't drink too much tonight."

As soon as the carved wooden door was opened, an eager atmosphere rushed over.

The decoration of the box is elegant, and the lighting is also in warm tones with charm. There are already people sitting on the main table in the middle.

Because you have just entered the door, everyone will naturally welcome you politely.

Fang Lin raised his head—

really.

As an investor, Duan Changke sat in the most conspicuous position in the box.

He couldn't avoid it, and in everyone's eyes, he collided with Duan Changke's indifferent gaze.
