Chapter 4 chapter04
The hangover was still lingering, so Miko hung up the phone and drank the oat milk in one sip. After one cup, the sourness in his stomach finally stopped.
After looking at the time, it was estimated that Han Yang would be arriving soon. Miko didn't have time to clean up the room. After washing the cups, he went inside to pack his luggage.
Before the luggage was packed, Han Yang had already arrived.
Hearing the doorbell ring, Miko went to open the door.
Today is still the late spring cold, and the cold wind rushes in as soon as the door is opened. Han Yang is in his forties, a bit middle-aged and fat, and he wears thick clothes, and he looks like a bear that can move.
He looks kind-hearted, but his behavior is completely opposite to his appearance - shrewd, retributive, focused on interests, self-interested, and insidious.
"What's your relationship with Lu Yansheng?" Han Yang stared at Mi Ke and asked after entering the door.
"We know each other," Miko saw his plan at a glance and denied it directly, "We are not familiar with each other, and our relationship is not very good. It is best to give up all the hype methods you are thinking of."
He half-smiled, "Maybe you can try and see if Lu Yansheng can expose your old ways."
Han Yang's eyebrows jumped heavily and he quickly calmed down. Thinking of Lu Yansheng's family background and methods, all the ideas he had made from last night to today were suppressed in his heart.
There is no need to offend Lu Yansheng now.
After Han Yang thought about it, he stopped delving into this issue and instead urged Mi Ke, "Have you packed your luggage? Remember to bring more. I have picked up two endorsements and two magazine shoots for you. You don't have time to run back and forth.
.”
Miko had already expected this, and responded calmly without any reaction.
Leaving Han Yang in the living room, Mi Ke went back to the room and continued to pack his luggage. After packing, he looked back at the countdown calendar on the bedside table before going out.
It's coming soon, there's only half a year left before his contract expires.
Just hold on for another half year.
"The Lin Family Has Happiness" is a light comedy costume drama, not a star-studded, low-budget online drama. He plays the hero's master, and his image of a good guy and peerless master from beginning to end is very flat.
To be honest, the script is quite good and suitable for supporting the male and female protagonists. However, the role he wants to play is just like a flower vase. It has no impact on the story if it is removed. It happens to be the one he is least willing to take again.
He wants to act, but he also wants to play a good role that will allow him to grow and improve.
What's more, Han Yang asked him to participate in "The Lin Family" just to borrow his traffic, so his name will definitely be used to create focus in the promotion of this drama.
Han Yang is very accustomed to manipulating public opinion. In his mind, black and red are also red. If there is no way to truly become popular, then he will create black spots and ridicule the whole network, so that people will remember the name first, and then arrange to clear his name later.
This is how half of Miko's black powder sticks to her face.
After getting in the car, Mi Ke and Han Yang had nothing to say, so they found a comfortable position and prepared to catch up on their sleep.
Just as his eyes closed, he heard Han Yang speak again: "Xu Lin and Zhou Heya are the people that the company will support next. If you stay with them more, I will arrange for someone to take photos."
"Oh." Miko closed his eyes and responded perfunctorily.
Hearing Mi Ke's perfunctory tone, Han Yang didn't care. He just wanted to know that Mi Ke would be obedient. He added, "Next week, you will bring Zhou Heya to Hualin Entertainment's dinner party."
Miko heard the voice of his words and opened his eyes, "What are you going to do? I don't remember that I have any project dealings with Hualin."
Hualin Entertainment is a new entertainment company in recent years. Because there is no shortage of funds, it has grown rapidly. However, the senior management behind it is a fun-loving person, and there is no taboo between men and women. Han Yang's request is more like sending the other person away
To that one.
Han Yang laughed and said sarcastically: "Do you think everyone is the same as you? There is no shortcut."
Miko pursed his lips.
"I dont go."
Han Yang narrowed his eyes and threatened with words, "Don't forget, I can make you rise to the clouds, and I can also make you fall to the ground."
Mico will never compromise on the bottom line issue. Even if the other party agrees to sell it, he will not be the one to help. "I am currently receiving an advertising company's quotation of 5 million, a reality show of 30 million, and short-term endorsements are at least 1 million each.
...According to the brokerage contract, the company can take 90% of the commission. There is no one else in the company who is worth as much as me and the company can take so much of the commission, not to mention how many famous artists and talents the company has?"
After speaking in an orderly manner, Miko finally concluded: "At least until my contract expires, you and the company will still rely on me to make money."
As for after the contract is terminated.
Anyway, Han Yang wouldn't let him have an easy time after the contract was terminated.
If he had not been able to bring benefits to the company, and the company had not been able to cultivate artists who could compete with him, he would have been banned as early as when he refused to attend cocktail parties, refused to take shortcuts, and then ruined their good deeds several times.
The name disappeared from public view.
Han Yang's face sank, and the muscles around his cheeks trembled, obviously he was out of breath.
However, what Miko said is true. Miko is indeed his most popular artist, and one of the few very profitable artists in the company.
He can't move him at the moment.
The car became quiet, and Lexia drove conscientiously, breathing lightly. She quietly glanced at Miko in the rearview mirror, and then quickly looked back.
Han Yang shut up, and Mi Ke began to catch up on his sleep.
The car passed through the city center and onto the viaduct. There were no more traffic lights, the car drove more smoothly, and Mico gradually fell asleep.
After the plane landed, we transferred to another train and arrived at the film and television city. It was already evening.
It was also a cold spring here, with light rain pattering down, making it wet and cold. When Miko got out of the car, he was faced with a gust of wind that forced him to wrap up his coat tightly.
Han Yang gathered his clothes and said, "Please follow me to meet the director first."
Han Yang will stay with the group for a few days this time, not because of Mi Ke, but because of Zhou Heya and Xu Lin. They are Han Yang's new recruits. They are both from majors and are excellent in appearance and figure.
Plan to focus on training.
Moreover, Mi Ke refused to bring Zhou Heya to the Hualin Entertainment dinner, so he had to make other plans.
"The Lin Family" started filming two weeks ago. Due to the short shooting period and the tight schedule, the crew and actors filmed until very late every day.
Because of the rain, the evening performances were all indoor performances.
What we were filming at the moment was actually a daytime scene. All the lights on the set were turned on, and the outside was brightly decorated. The artificial light sources perfectly imitated the sun's rays.
Director Chen Yichuan is relatively young. He has just celebrated his thirtieth birthday. He is a bit fat and very gentle. He is a director who turned from photography. This "The Lin Family Happiness" is his first independently directed work.
Seeing Mi Ke and Han Yang, Chen Yichuan left the monitor and stretched out his hand, "Teacher Mi."
When Chen Yichuan heard that Mi Ke was going to join, he was actually filled with mixed feelings. He was happy because of the traffic, but worried about his acting skills. When he was a photographer, he had worked with Mi Ke, and Mi Ke's acting skills were really bad.
The simple confession scene was filmed nearly twenty times, and he still remembers it fresh.
"Director Chen." Mi Ke shook hands with him and asked, "Do you have any drama planned for me tonight?"
"No, you need to rest for the night first."
Mi Ke nodded. He knew that Han Yang had something to say to Chen Yichuan. After a brief chat with Chen Yichuan, he left with an excuse and found a place to stay and watch the filming.
He didn't have enough time and couldn't hire anyone to teach him, so he had to catch up on extra lessons every time he had free time during filming - watching other people acting, asking some veteran actors for tips on filming, and developing the habit of observation every day and recording them.
Mico carried a notebook for recording material with him. He asked the staff for a stool and sat quietly in the corner, reading and writing down.
Miko sat down for four hours.
Even though she was indoors, the heating was not turned on and the temperature was still very low. Lexia was still shivering from the cold even when she was running and jumping. She wanted to roll herself into a ball. She looked at Miko's frozen red hands and his focused eyes.
I feel so awesome.
Lexia used to dislike Mico, until she became Mico's assistant and understood Mico's real situation, and now she has become a fan.
It was almost early in the morning when Miko finally moved. He stretched and put away his notebook.
"what time is it?"
"Ten thirty." Lexia stopped jumping around, stretched out her hand from her pocket with difficulty, and took out her mobile phone to look at it.
"So late?" Mi Ke was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, "Has Han Yang left?"
"Well, I left long ago."
Miko thought, it's good not to have to face him.
After standing up and returning the chair, Miko asked the logistics staff for a warm baby and handed it to Lexia, "You can use it first so it won't be cold when you get back to the hotel."
Lexia was so moved that she said, "Thank you, brother."
Mico shook his head and smiled, "Let's go."
The hotel booked by the crew is not far away, a ten-minute drive away. Mico is considered the biggest actor in the crew, so the room arranged for him is the best, a one-bedroom suite with a western kitchen.
After Mico took a shower, put on his pajamas, he leaned on the bedside with a script and read it. It wasn't until early in the morning that he rubbed his eyes and turned off the lights to go to sleep.
—
City B was still lively in the early morning.
After coming out of the hotel, Gu Xiangxing supported the drunk Lin Hang and looked back at Lu Yansheng, feeling uneasy and asking, "Then I'll leave first?"
There is another person standing next to Lu Yansheng, who is half a head shorter than Lu Yansheng, has round eyes and a round face, and looks very cute and lovable. He is Lu Yansheng's cousin Wei Ningyuan, who is studying in the first year of graduate school at University B.
"Come on, hurry up, you are so long-winded." Wei Ningyuan drank wine, his cheeks were very red.
Gu Xiangxing looked at Lu Yansheng, who said, "Let's go."
Only then did Gu Xiangxing leave.
As soon as they left, Lu Yansheng also took Wei Ningyuan into the car.
Wei Ningyuan slumped in the co-pilot, turned his head to look at his cousin, and finally asked the doubts he had been holding in all night, "Why did you invest in Lin Hang's movie in my name?"
Lu Yansheng's words were concise and to the point, and he said two words: "Make money."
It sounded fake at first sight. Wei Ningyuan curled his lips and didn't believe it at all, "Do I look so easy to fool?"
He remembered something, sat up straight and exclaimed: "Brother, do you have someone you like?"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was right, otherwise he really couldn't figure out why his brother would suddenly invest in a TV series on a whim and use his name mysteriously.
