"Why am I overthinking?" Fang Yan said angrily. "Others can do it, why can't I?"
"Sir, King Tang is an outlier, a legend in our entertainment industry. The records he created have not been broken or surpassed until now-----"
"I think I can do it too." Fang Yan said. "Find me a beautiful girl group for me to join-----"
"gentlemen-----"
"I'm also very good-looking, and it's no problem for me to dress up as a woman-----"
"gentlemen-------"
"Are you really a talent scout?"
"right."
"So you didn't see that I had potential in this area?"
"Sir, to be honest-----" The middle-aged man was a little upset. "I didn't see it."
"You insulted me like this and you still want to borrow a step from me?"
"I have something important to discuss with you."
"Isn't it just a movie? You still have the nerve to ask me to star in a movie that won't make 1 billion at the box office?"
"Sir, we're not looking for you to star in the film. We want to work with you on some details."
"How detailed is it?"
"Shoot some music video footage."
"--------"
Fang Yan shook his head and said, "No. First, I won't take a movie unless it's a big investment. Second, I can't trust you. The talent scouts I know hang out on the street and when they see a pretty girl, they rush up to her and say, "Miss, I think you have great potential, are you willing to come back with me to make a movie?" Then they take her to a remote and shabby room for an interview and say they want to test your acting skills and understanding, and then they make the girl take off her clothes - you guys are not trying to take advantage of me, are you?"
"Sir, we have no such considerations. We are a large company, Huasheng Entertainment, and it is impossible for us to do such a thing-----"
"Who knows?" Fang Yan sneered. "If I'm really deceived by you, I won't be able to get anything from you. How can I guarantee my innocence?"
The middle-aged man knew that he had to tell the truth. He glanced around and said in a low voice: "Sir, I'm not a talent scout. I'm Miss Xia Tian's agent. I want to talk to you about-----"
"Xia Tian?" Fang Yan thought the name sounded familiar. "I don't know her either."
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed and said, "You really don't know Miss Xia Tian? Stop joking, okay? How is it possible that someone doesn't know Miss Xia Tian? Sir, I personally think that this is a good thing for you and a great opportunity for many people. If you can get Miss Xia Tian's appreciation-----"
"I still don't understand what you mean." Fang Yan said. "You just said you were a talent scout, and now you're saying you're a woman's agent. What do you want to do?"
"------"
"People should be honest and trustworthy." Fang Yan said. "You lied to me once, and you want me to believe your lie a second time? Well, I'm busy, so let's end this conversation."
The middle-aged man was anxious. He took out a business card from his pocket and said, "Sir, look, I am really Miss Xia Tian's agent. My name is Zhang Wei. It's like this. Miss Xia Tian happened to be shooting in Xixia Mountain today. She just saw you performing Tai Chi in the morning light. She is very interested in you and wants to talk to you about using this set of shots in her new song."
"Okay, okay." Fang Yan waved his hand and said, "We are all so busy, let's not waste each other's time. If you want to continue to cheat, I still have to take my students to have breakfast - I accept your business card, let's talk next time."
Fang Yan waved his hand and said, "That's all. Bye."
"---------"
Zhang Wei looked regretful and said, "If you change your mind, you can call me anytime."
"You think too much." Fang Yan said. Zhang Wei just said that he thought too much, and he was very angry. Now, he finally has the chance to avenge this "cheap" thing.
---------
"What?" Qingmei's voice was full of doubt. A beautiful woman in a white ancient dress asked in surprise, "He doesn't want to?"
"Yes." Zhang Wei said helplessly. "I extended the most sincere invitation to him, but he still refused."
"Zhang Wei, you don't have a problem with your attitude, do you?" Xia Tian knew that as her fame grew, the tempers of the people around her also grew. Because she was kind-hearted and cherished the old friendship, she was unwilling to reprimand them easily, let alone fire them, so sometimes the attitudes of the people around her would make some people have some prejudices against her.
"Miss, how could I do such a thing? Don't I know your temper?" Zhang Wei said innocently. "I know Miss wants to cooperate with him, and my attitude is really good. But he just doesn't want to."
"Why not? What right does he have?" The assistant who was busy putting makeup on Xia Tian said angrily. "Our sister Xia Tian can work with anyone? Sister Xia Tian took the initiative to invite him, but he still didn't want to do it. He really doesn't know what's good for him. If I go, I will definitely scold him to death."
"Manman-----" Xia Tian comforted softly. "Don't say such things next time. Everyone has their own aspirations, and we can't force others."
"I'm just angry about that person's arrogant attitude-----" the assistant said very aggrievedly.
Xia Tian smiled and asked, "Why doesn't he agree?"
"At first I didn't want to expose the young lady's whereabouts, so I said I was a talent scout and wanted to invite him to film a movie."
"He refused?"
"That's not the case. But what he asked was too much -"
"What request? If we can discuss it, we can also make some appropriate compensation-----"
"He said he only takes on movies with big investments, so don't look for him if the movie won't make over 1 billion at the box office." Zhang Wei said with a sense of revenge.
"What? A billion box office? Does he think he's the King of Tang?"
"That's right, isn't it too much?"
"Sister Xia Tian, is he a lunatic? He must be-----"
-------
Zhang Wei's words caused the group of people around Xia Tian to explode. They attacked and condemned Fang Yan, the guy who spoke so arrogantly.
Feng Yuancheng, a famous male star in China and the male lead of the ancient myth drama "Shenlu" co-starring with Xia Tian, sneered and said, "I've been in this circle for five or six years, and I can only say that I'm familiar with it. This guy wants a billion box office as soon as he opens his mouth - does he think he is a superstar? Sister Xia Tian, don't you just want to choose a male lead for your new song MTV? If you think it's suitable, I will go over to play with you - I don't want to pay a penny, and I will pay for the plane ticket myself."
It's no secret that Feng Yuancheng has always admired Xia Tian, and it's not surprising that he wants to act in Xia Tian's new song MTV.
Xia Tian smiled silently and said, "Thank you Yuancheng. If it's appropriate, I will definitely invite you to help me----But, that guy is really good. The scene of him doing Tai Chi on the top of the mountain just now is really unforgettable. You also know that I want to try a classical style for my new song-----"
"It's just a show of fancy moves," Feng Yuancheng said. "Give me a few days of training, and I can fight as well as him. I'll go visit the famous Tai Chi master Mr. Zheng Longjian and learn a few moves from him. I'll definitely be better than that guy."
Xia Tian smiled and said, "It's too much trouble to do it remotely. Let's put this matter aside for now. Since there is no chance, let's talk about it later."
Everyone saw that Xia Tian was unwilling to talk about this topic any more. They thought that the man's rejection made Xia Tian very embarrassed and annoyed her. So the director immediately came over and said, "Xia Tian, let me show you this scene again. Actually, this scene is very simple. You and Yuan Cheng meet on the top of a mountain where the sun is rising. Then the two sides fight because of a misunderstanding. Yuan Cheng pretends to be defeated by you and falls off a cliff. You are very anxious."

Zhang Wei left, and Jiang Qin came over and asked, "Teacher Fang, who is that person? What does he want from you?"
"First he said he was a scout looking for me to film a movie, then he told me he was Xia Tian's agent-----I sent him away." Fang Yan said.
Jiang Qin took the business card and looked at it, then said, "It seems that it really says that Xia Tian is his agent. It would be great if it were true. I like Xia Tian very much. However, this person must be a liar. How could Xia Tian be here?"
"That summer is very famous?" Fang Yan asked.
"She's so famous." Jiang Qin said excitedly. "She's the most popular star in China. I like every drama she's in. She sings really well, too. She's nicknamed the Queen of Golden Melody. That's why I said it couldn't be her."
"Forget about her. Let's go eat. After dinner, you can go back down the mountain with our car. I will take them back to school, and you can go home directly to say hello to your parents-----"
"No." Jiang Qin said with a pout.
"why not?"
"I'm going to see where you live. I'll come visit you when I have time. You're still my tutor. Don't you want to fulfill your responsibilities now?"
"Next time." Fang Yan refused. "I have a lot of things to do today. I have to bring the students out and bring them back safely. I also have to report to the school leaders, and I have friends waiting for me to entertain them. Next time, I will definitely invite you to my home."
"Okay." Jiang Qin said helplessly. "I'm telling you, I will definitely go."
"Of course, of course." Fang Yan said as if to assure.
At this moment, a strong smell of alcohol came.
Burn the knife!
Even though Fang Yan hadn't tasted this kind of liquor for a long time, he could still smell the familiar flavor of the liquor at once.
In this early morning when the sun is rising and the air is filled with dew, on the top of Xixia Mountain a thousand meters above the sky, how could there be the smell of burning knives
Fang Yan followed the smell of alcohol and saw a long-haired man drinking from a huge bronze wine gourd on a large rock about ten meters away.
The big man sat cross-legged on the rock, took a sip of liquor, and watched the sunrise.
The posture is arrogant and the expression is freehand, which makes people feel weird but also gives people a sense of grandeur and heroism. (To be continued)
