The security door rose slowly, Huang Ying walked over and pushed the door open, letting Liang Sizhe go in first.
Huang Ying walked into the room and turned on the light, while Liang Sizhe stood at the door and looked at the space. The two-storey low-rise building is invisible from the outside, but once you go in, you will find that there is something special. The LOFT layout, the first floor and the second floor are connected, the glass rooms are independent of each other, and the internal mechanical equipment is at a glance, like a sophisticated and complex The movie studio looks very designed at a glance.
"Anyone upstairs?" Liang Sizhe raised his head and glanced. The glass room on the second floor near the stairs had shutters drawn on all sides, and only faint light could be seen inside.
"Oh," Huang Ying also looked up, "Recently, a crew was in the post-production stage and came to stay up late to cut the film."
"A movie cast by Cao Ye?"
"Yes, a student crew had an idea, so Cao Ye voted."
Liang Sizhe walked inside and asked, "Who thought of the design of the all-glass room?"
"It's also Cao Ye," Huang Ying followed and introduced to him, "they all use sound-insulating glass, which has a good sound-insulating effect. If you want privacy, just pull up the shutters on all sides, just like upstairs... Isn't it special?"
"It's quite Cao Ye's style."
"However, there are also a few rooms that are not glass rooms, such as the dubbing room and the film room, which require relatively high airtightness, all on the second floor."
"What is this place mainly used for?" Liang Sizhe pushed open the door of a glass room and went in for a stroll. "Rent to the crew and film production team?"
"It's not wrong to say renting, but the rent is very cheap. Most of the time, it is equivalent to lending to the crew who have the idea to make a good movie. Do you know what the students named this place? Uto, Utopia of Utopia, they It feels like a pure land here, as long as you have an idea for a movie, everything can be realized here.”
Liang Sizhe repeated in a low voice, "Uto..."
"The director of "The Darkest Choice", Zeng Ran, went out from here. At that time, he made a CULT film. Cao Ye liked it very much, so he chatted with him for a long time, and then "The Darkest Choice" came out, so Zeng Ye liked it very much. Ran is a rookie director discovered by Cao Ye."
"Zeng Ran and the people in his team are pretty good," Liang Sizhe nodded, "with ideas and execution."
"Cao Ye also said the same. You don't know, many film companies came to recruit Zeng Ran's team at that time, and the conditions they gave were tempting, but after chatting with Cao Ye that afternoon, Zeng Ran didn't hesitate at all. Just signed a contract with Lomon."
Huang Ying talked endlessly about what happened in Uto, and Liang Sizhe listened intently, occasionally asking a few questions.
"Everyone who came to Utuo liked Cao Ye very much. When they saw him for the first time, they were all surprised. They didn't expect him to be so young. When "The Darkest Choice" happened, those students were worried about Cao Ye. I was afraid that Lomon would really be acquired by Janis, and their pure land would cease to exist. Thinking about it, Janis would not allow such a money-burning place to exist, so Cao Ye was very anxious at the time, and for this reason exist."
Liang Sizhe said "um", he could understand the thoughts of those students - there would never be another company that would support new directors like Lomon, and even if there were, there would be no boss like Cao Ye. , to give them such freedom, tolerance, and do whatever they want. He was obviously doing something amazing, but he was drunk last night and said he was nothing without Cao Xiuyuan. This person is really... Liang Sizhe shook his head almost imperceptibly, and he was so arrogant about himself.
After talking to the end of the space, Huang Ying raised her hand and gestured: "Come on, this is the small theater where Cao Ye often comes to sleep.
The iron door was pushed open, and Huang Ying fumbled to turn on the chandelier above her head, and the dim light illuminated the confined space on this side. There is not much space. There are three rows of leather seats. Huang Ying sat on it and demonstrated: "But the seats are very comfortable. You can sit or lie down." She pressed the button on the side of the seat, and the back of the seat slowly moved. Put it down and become a reclining chair.
"The first time I saw this kind of seat was ten years ago." Liang Sizhe smiled, "The principle is similar, you can sit or lie down, but the structure is much simpler than this one."
"Cao Ye also said this," Huang Ying said with a smile, "Did you two see it together ten years ago?"
"Really." Liang Sizhe walked to the square table against the wall, where a dozen Blu-ray discs were piled up in a mess. On the CD of "Thirteen Days", looking at Xiaoman with a violin on the cover, he asked Huang Ying, "Who brought these discs?"
"Oh, those students from the crew brought them here," Huang Ying explained. "They are your fans, but they like you. As long as they talk about the movies you acted in, they won't stop talking for a long time."
"What about Cao Ye, what kind of movies does he like to watch?"
"He, the movies he came to watch in this theater were mainly for hypnosis, some monster-fighting movies. He would fall asleep easily watching those kinds of movies, but the movies were so good that he couldn't sleep."
Liang Sizhe gave a "hmm" and put the CD in his hand back on the table.
Huang Ying put the CDs together and looked at Liang Sizhe, she seemed a little hesitant to say anything.
Liang Sizhe looked up at her: "What do you want to ask?"
She had already swallowed the question, but she didn't expect Liang Sizhe to see through it so easily. Huang Ying asked hesitantly, "It's nothing, I'm just curious... Are you guys reconciled?"
"Huh?" Liang Sizhe looked up at her, "Cao Ye told you that we are not in harmony?"
"No," Huang Ying hurriedly denied, "I guess, he didn't tell me this."
"Really?" Liang Sizhe smiled, found a seat in the first row and sat down, his elbows were bent on his thighs, and he raised his chin slightly to look at Huang Ying, "Since you guess like this, there must be a basis, say Say?"
Huang Ying was a little confused: "I'm not sure if Cao Ye wants me to say..."
"Why not sure
Being watched by Liang Sizhe with such eyes, it is really difficult to firm up her original position. Huang Ying feels that compared to the silent and sharp boy ten years ago, today's Liang Sizhe is gentler but more powerful, giving her a full-blown aura. The feeling, obviously in a normal tone, but unprovoked gives a sense of oppression.
Huang Ying said hesitantly: "How should I put it, he is a little resistant to the topic of you, and sometimes I will mention you to him, but he always turns to other topics very quickly, so I seldom talk to him later. I mentioned you in front of me."
Liang Sizhe nodded thoughtfully.
The phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated, Liang Sizhe took out the phone and looked down, looking at Lai Xian on the screen and said, "It's dawn, my manager is calling, it seems that those photos have indeed been posted online. "
Huang Ying was a little nervous for him: "Then what should I do now?"
"It's okay," Liang Sizhe's tone sounded unchanged, "Just make a clarification, I'll answer the phone."
Liang Sizhe answered the phone, Xu Yunchu's tone seemed to be deliberately suppressing his emotions: "Sizhe, where are you now?"
—
Splitting headache. It was as if an electric drill was humming inward against the temple.
Cao Ye frowned and opened his eyes in pain. The feeling of a hangover was too uncomfortable.
The curtains were drawn so tightly that no light could get in, so that he couldn't tell whether it was morning or afternoon for a moment. The top is taken off, the shoes are also taken off, but the lower body is still fully dressed, what's the situation? Who brought him back? Cheng Duan or Lin Yan
Forget it, don't think about it, it's a headache when you think about it.
The room was pitch black, and the time on the watch could not be read clearly. Cao Ye wanted to take out the phone from his pocket, but he didn't feel it. He had no choice but to sit up on the bed, get out of the bed and walk to the bed with bare feet, slamming the curtains open.
The sun was so dazzling that he squinted his eyes subconsciously - looking at the bright sky, it should be noon.
After looking around the room, Cao Ye saw that his mobile phone was on the head of the bed, and it was turned off. He couldn't remember when his phone was last turned off.
Cao Ye turned on his phone, and at 19:19, he really slept for a long time.
The messages in the notification bar jumped out one by one, Cao Ye just glanced at it, and immediately woke up.
— "Liang Sizhe appeared in a bar in the early morning and was taken away by the police for investigation, suspected of being involved in drugs"
—"The reshoot of "The Darkest Choice" is in crisis again! Liang Sizhe was arrested on suspicion of drug use on the night of the finale banquet"
Cao Ye was completely drowsy, and he clicked on a message and glanced at it quickly.
The message is terse, but accompanied by several pictures. In the dim light in the middle of the night, Liang Sizhe followed the two policemen to the police car. Although he only took a side view from a distance, he could clearly identify that the protagonist of the photo was indeed Liang Sizhe.
Scroll down further, and on the far left of the picture, a flamboyant blue Aston Martin looks very familiar. Cao Ye was sure that the car was his own, because he had modified the headlights, and there would not be a second sports car that was exactly the same.
I remembered that it was Liang Sizhe who sent me back last night.
He was also splashed with milk by Liang Sizhe, so he was naked now, it should be the shirt that Liang Sizhe helped him take off.
—Liang Sizhe takes drugs? how is this possible
Cao Ye took a closer look at the accompanying picture, the background was a little familiar, it looked like Yin Si. The underground bar mentioned in the news is not "burning", is it? !
He called Huang Ying and the call was connected. Before Huang Ying could speak, he asked, "What happened to the bar? Why is Liang Sizhe there?"
"You finally turned it on," Huang Ying sounded a little anxious, "I called you all morning to tell you about this, but you have been turned off."
"Liang Sizhe turned off my phone, let's talk about what's going on."
"Yesterday, someone in the bar was carrying drugs, and I don't know who reported it. The police suddenly came to do a search and took everyone out. They had to ask you to come and cooperate with the investigation, so I had to call you, but I didn't expect to answer the phone. It was Liang Sizhe, when he heard about this, he said he would come over immediately..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Cao Ye frowned and interrupted: "He said he wanted to pass, so you really let him pass? With his identity, there are so many people, and the police are there, you don't need to think about it and know that you will definitely be photographed. Why didn't you stop him on the phone?"
"Yes yes yes," Huang Ying confessed consciously, "I was also stunned at the time. He said he was Liang Sizhe and I didn't respond. I was surprised when I patronized. After I reacted, he hung up the phone. He didn't come over, but the phone called, your phone was turned off, and I don't know his number..."
Cao Ye felt his head hurt even more, raised his hand and pinched his brows: "I know, I can't blame you for this."
"I looked at Weibo this morning, God, you don't even know what the public opinion is now, I couldn't bear to look down after a few glances... By the way, Cao Ye, go to the police station as soon as possible to cooperate with the investigation, Although Liang Sizhe helped fix the bar yesterday and only needed to close the business for ten days to rectify it, the police still need you to make a record."
"Well, I see." Cao Ye said.
After hanging up the phone, Cao Ye looked at the relevant comments on his mobile phone. Just like Huang Ying said, the public opinion is now unsightly, and some fake materials are actually made up with noses and eyes:
— "After hearing about Cannes, Liang Sizhe pushed all the film contracts. In name, he wanted to be a director himself, but in fact he wanted to get rid of drugs, because Cao Xiuyuan was banned for five years and could not develop in China after that. He would definitely cooperate with other directors, no Detoxification will definitely reveal its secrets, and there is really no way to be forced by the agent to detoxify." This post has already exceeded 10,000 retweets and comments.
"The movie "The Darkest Choice" is enough to memorize, even two movie stars have been arrested for taking drugs, who would dare to take it..."
- "Liang Sizhe has been taking drugs, how did you know? He beat people at the press conference because of drug addicts, right?"
- "Liang Yingdi is really a nightclub coffee, and he was photographed going to a nightclub. If he was skating, he would have to come to a NP after the event, so it matched the previous revelations. It was said before that his private life was messed up, but there were people who cleaned it up. Don't have to wash it again."
What's the matter... Cao Ye turned off his phone and threw it on the bed without looking down.
I was angry, upset, anxious for no reason, and my head hurt even more - why didn't Xu Yunchu clarify
Unable to hold back, he leaned over and picked up the phone again, looking for clarification, and he really found it, it was posted at 9:00 in the morning.
"The reporter contacted Liang Sizhe's agent Xu Yunchu. The other party said that Liang Sizhe appeared at the bar in the early morning to help friends deal with related matters. Liang Sizhe himself has never been involved in drugs..."
But the comments below the clarification report don't seem to buy it:
- "It's too unconvincing, I don't even have a picture, is it because it's still in the police station and hasn't been released?"
- "Why did the police take me away to help my friend deal with things for investigation, I must have a problem with myself."
- "So Liang Sizhe's friends are all friends who run bars like this, and the club coffee is a real hammer."
- "What important friend, to show up in the middle of the night to help deal with it, didn't Liang Yingdi know that he would be photographed? It is estimated that Xu Yunchu could not contact Liang Sizhe, so he made up a pretense to fool reporters and waited for the police announcement."
Another push message popped up at this time: "The producer of "Darkest Choice" said that there is no reshoot plan for the time being."
Cao Ye took a few glances: "Cheng Duan, the person in charge of the announcement of "The Darkest Choice" and the vice president of Lomon, said that he had contacted Liang Sizhe himself. He walked out of the police station at about 4 in the morning. At present, "The Darkest Choice" has been completed, and the reshoots have not been affected. But when asked if he had met Liang Sizhe himself, Cheng Duan said that he has not. "
After reading a few lines quickly, Cao Ye called Cheng Duan: "What does this title mean?"
"You finally turned it on," Cheng Duan breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone. "Have you seen the news? The reporter called for an interview just now, and I made a simple clarification."
"It's alright to clarify the content, but the title is too vague. People who clicked in knew that Liang Sizhe was okay, so if they didn't click on it and just read the title, they thought we were discouraged and didn't want to make another reshoot."
"Yes, I also realized this problem when I saw the push. The media wants to attract attention and earn clicks. This is something that can't be done... Everyone is paying attention to this matter now, and they should be patient to click in and read the content."
"The content doesn't seem to be any better," Cao Ye said in a bad tone. "The last sentence I haven't met with me makes it clear that you don't know if Liang Sizhe is still being detained."
"This is really unkind to the media. I clearly said that I didn't meet each other but made a phone call. They deleted the second half of the sentence. I just wanted to call their editor-in-chief to scold him, and you called."
"The news has already been pushed, and it's useless to scold you."
"Yes," Cheng Duan reassured him in a good-natured manner, "the next time I have exclusive news, I won't give it to this company, and I will cancel the in-depth cooperation with them... How is Si Zhe now? I can't hear his mood on the phone. Good or bad, but I always feel that this kind of thing is quite bad. He sent you home and helped you handle the bar. He should have slept all night. It was already 8:00 in the morning when I called him, and he seemed to be still Didn't sleep, do you want to go see him?"
"I..." Cao Ye paused, "he might have fallen asleep. Besides, I don't even have his address."
"Just ask him on WeChat, he will come back to you when he wakes up," Cheng Duan laughed, "You are willing to go over and stare at the filming in the middle of the night in the rain, Liang Sizhe, because of such a big thing happened to you, I don't believe you will I can't bear to look at him."
Being guessed by Cheng Duan, Cao Ye really couldn't bear his temper. He was not someone who could stand his temper originally, but now Liang Sizhe has this kind of thing because of him.
After leaving the bedroom, Cao Ye saw half a glass of milk on the coffee table in the living room. Across the glass door of the kitchen, he saw a small pot sitting on the induction cooker. Liang Sizhe helped him heat the milk last night.
Cao Ye stared at the glass of milk for a while, then walked back to the bedroom, picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Liang Sizhe: "Where do you live? Send me the address."
There was no immediate return. Cao Ye held the phone and stared at the screen for a while.
what are you doing? asleep
Forget it, let's take a shower first, and wait for the other party to reply. What's the matter
While taking a shower in the bathroom, he thought of the scene at the banquet last night. Liang Sizhe held a wine glass and stood upright in the banquet hall, soberly and calmly listening to Lin Yan's accusations of right or wrong.
Why didn't he justify it? It is said that "Red Boy and Red Girl" is due to Cao Ye's youth and ignorance causing trouble, not to help him out of kindness for no reason.
He was so annoying to Liang Sizhe at that time, how could he help him find resources for no reason
After taking a shower, Cao Ye walked out around the bath towel, picked up the phone and glanced at it again, Liang Sizhe replied, "Are you going to come to the house to thank you?"
It's still that kind of joking tone as if nothing happened, and he can use these few words to make up the half-smiley look on his face when he said this.
There is also a positioning message below, and a "Come on, your car is still with me".
Cao Ye didn't reply. He called the driver and called the driver. Then he went to the bedroom to get dressed, put on his mobile phone and went out.
The address given by Liang Sizhe was in a secluded villa area on the outskirts of the city.
On the way, Cao Ye turned out last night's news and read it several times. I have to say that the photos were taken quite well. Liang Sizhe, who was next to the policeman, had broad shoulders and long legs, and the angle was a little far. The two long legs were very conspicuous. . The profile of the face looks clear, and the line of the lower jaw is somewhat sharply outlined by the night. Although there is no expression on his face, Liang Sizhe in the photo looks upright and magnanimous - how can anyone suspect that he is taking drugs
In the summer of July, the trees are thick and shaded. After entering the villa area, you have to turn around to find the house number given by Liang Sizhe. The driver almost lost his way and went back to the exit.
It was like a maze, Cao Ye thought while looking at the villa area. It was estimated that Liang Sizhe also had the consideration of hiding from the paparazzi when he chose this residence.
When the driver went around the path to find the house number, the phone in Cao Ye's hand vibrated again, he looked down, and another push popped up—
"Liang Sizhe appeared on the street to pick up the dog's head and confirmed that he was not detained for drug-related charges"
Cao Ye touched the screen with his finger and clicked into this tweet: "Around 1:50 in the afternoon, the reporters who were squatting near Yunchu Media finally waited for Liang Sizhe, the protagonist of the drug-related incident. After Liang Sizhe got out of the car, The agent Xu Yunchu, who had been waiting by the roadside, gave the dog to Liang Sizhe..."
In the photo, Liang Sizhe was wearing a simple white T, gray sweatpants, a baseball bat, and half squatted down to touch the dog's head. The dog was also very close to him, so he leaned over and put his head on his shoulder superior.
Liang Sizhe seemed to be in a good mood. There were rumors about his drug use outside, but the protagonist of this incident did not seem to be affected by public opinion at all, and he still remembered coming out to pick up the dog.
This dog... is Xiao Xiaobai? Cao Ye stared at the photo. In fact, he didn't look like Xiaobai, but more like Caesar. He had a similar body shape, similar hair color, and a similar posture that liked to jump on people.
For a while, he thought of Liang Sizhe walking down the stairs of Lan Yan, and being thrown back by Caesar, he still remembered that scene, it was a rare Liang Sizhe that was very happy.
"Mr. Cao, here we are." The driver said in front.
Cao Ye came back to his senses, responded, pushed open the door and got out of the car. Stepping up a few stairs, he walked to the door of Liang Sizhe's house. When he rang the doorbell, he suddenly wondered if he should find an excuse to come.
I don't know why, but I don't want to say that I came to see him out of fear.
The door opened, and Liang Sizhe was wearing the same clothes as in the photo just now: "Here you come? Very fast."
The dog in the house probably noticed that a stranger was coming, stood at the entrance behind him, and barked at him.
Cao Ye took advantage of the situation and made an excuse: "Well, that... I'll take a look at the dog."
Liang Sizhe leaned against the door frame and hugged his chest, looking at him, half-smiling.
Cao Ye was a little hairy when he looked at him. Just as he was about to say something, Liang Sizhe asked leisurely, "What about scolding people?"
Cao Ye was caught off guard and laughed at him.
