Deng Chao gave Lin Yuan a very warm feeling, not at all condescending, but more of a childhood kindness.
We chatted for a while.
Deng Chao suddenly changed the subject: "Yuan, I heard your parents said before that you went to Hengdian to be an actor?"
"Yeah." Lin Yuan didn't know why the other party suddenly asked this, but he still nodded and answered.
"How's it going? How are you doing?" Deng Chao didn't mock or show any disdain. Instead, he asked with a serious look, just like an older brother caring about his younger brother.
"It's just okay." Lin Yuan answered matter-of-factly. His current condition is just okay, neither better nor worse.
"Yuan, do you need help?" What seemed like a passable solution turned out to be a failure in Deng Chao's ears. He didn't think much about it and immediately threw out a surprise that Lin Yuan didn't expect.
If it had been a few months ago, he would have been hesitant at this moment.
But now he no longer has this idea.
His relationship with Deng Chao was that of an elder brother and a younger brother when they were children. There was no interest involved. He did not want the relationship between the two to change because of the other party's actions.
With almost no hesitation, Lin Yuan answered seriously and confidently: "Brother Chao, I accept your wishes, but my brother wants to work hard on his own to make a difference."
These words fell.
Deng Chao's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Lin Yuan.
Ever since he became famous, countless people have come to ask for help every day, and relatives who are beyond their reach have been looking for him like crazy.
After experiencing this phenomenon, he believed that it was impossible for anyone to refuse his kindness.
But he didn't expect that Lin Yuan would reject him with such a determined look.
Faced with the rejection, Deng Chaofeng was not angry at all. On the contrary, he regarded Lin Yuan even more highly.
At the same time, after hearing the conversation between the two, several people sitting in the back row couldn't help but glance at Lin Yuan.
They all know who Deng Chao is.
When people at this level talk about mentoring, they are at the level where they will rise to great heights.
But they still refused.
In their view, this situation can be explained in two ways.
High emotional intelligence: Ambitious!
Low EQ: Smelly idiot!
Of course, this is from their perspective. From Lin Yuan's perspective, it's not that he doesn't want Deng Chao's help, but he knows that the other party is a top-tier artist in the country. If an artist of this level needs help from the other party now, it will be more or less the same as before.
Kill the chicken with a butcher's knife.
Keep this friendship and get help from others when you really make a name for yourself in the future. This is the best way to maximize your benefits.
"Okay, I'm very happy that you have such ambition, so I won't say anything more. But in the future, if you need anything, you can always come to me. The one who can help me will definitely not include Hu."
Speaking of Deng Chao, his eyes were filled with relief and he patted Lin Yuan heavily on the shoulder.
From Deng Chao's perspective, it was very good that Lin Yuan had this ambition, especially his confidence in conversation which he admired even more.
Whether it was out of childhood brotherhood or an investment, Deng Chao had already taken Lin Yuan's name to heart and would definitely lend a hand when he had the opportunity in the future.
"Okay Brother Chao, I need you to take care of my younger brother when I have the opportunity in the future." Lin Yuan was naturally happy when he heard Deng Chao's words. He has many friends and many paths, not to mention a top-notch brother. He replied
After that, he did not continue the topic, but took the initiative to change the topic: "Brother Chao, why are you going to Hangzhou this time?"
"What else can we do? It's just filming. Let's not talk about work. Let's talk about other things. You have changed a lot. My memory of you is still when I was a child. You kept talking to me with a snot in your nose.
Behind me, in order to play video games, I asked you to stand guard at the door. Several times, you were late and I was beaten when I got home!"
When he was a child, his parents had to go to work, so he became a left-behind child.
At that time, Deng Chao was studying in an art school. When he came home on weekends, his parents would leave Lin Yuan to Deng Chao's house. Deng Chao would help take Lin Yuan with him every time he went back and forth.
This relationship was not interrupted until Deng Chao went to other provinces.
Now I hear Deng Chao recalling what he said back then.
Lin Yuan couldn't help but complained: "Brother Chao, it's meaningless for you to say this. How did you forget how you got the money for playing games back then?"
"Forehead..."
"I remember very clearly that my mother gave me a dime to buy snacks. When I arrived at your house, you defrauded me of the money in just three sentences, saying you were buying me food, but you ended up using it to play games.
Damn it, Brother Chao, you are not authentic..."
"Ah hahaha, how come you remember the past so clearly..." Hearing Lin Yuan reveal his embarrassing story, Brother Chao immediately laughed awkwardly.
In this way, during the flight that lasted more than an hour, the two of them chatted with each other. They couldn't help laughing when they talked about interesting things, and they couldn't help but sigh when they talked about their former friends.
Wait until the plane lands.
The two hugged each other at the airport. After Deng Chao left his personal phone number, he left surrounded by security guards.
Watching Brother Chao leave, Lin Yuan felt very happy.
With a happy mood, he also embarked on his own life path.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, he came to the place where Hengdian lived and simply packed some things.
After sorting everything out, he took out his cell phone and called Sister Zhao and some of his former extras friends one by one.
On the phone, he informed everyone to get together and treat them to dinner in the evening.
Someone was having a treat and everyone said there was no problem and they would come as soon as they were done. Only Sister Zhao's voice suddenly dropped and she quickly asked where he was.
After informing me of the address, Sister Zhao rushed over in less than half an hour.
"Xiao Lin, what happened? You've been treating me to dinner, are you leaving here?"
"Well, I'm leaving." Looking at Sister Zhao with a worried face, Lin Yuan could not help but feel warm in his heart.
"Where... where are you going? You... are you out of money? If you don't have any money, I'll lend you some money. You've persisted for two years, will you give up now..."
Sister Zhao thought Lin Yuan was giving up on his dream. Being a neighbor for many years made her know better than anyone how much the man in front of her had suffered for his dream, so she couldn't help but feel pity for him and immediately tried to dissuade him.
But she stopped again after she said it. She suddenly realized that Lin Yuan's character was not the kind to give up casually. Since the other party chose to give up, there must be a reason for giving up. Therefore, she fell silent and didn't know how to comfort her for a moment.
.
"Sister Zhao, where are you thinking? I have been signed by the company. I will spend a lot of time in Shanghai from now on. I may not come here often."
In Sister Zhao's depressed mood, Lin Yuan immediately told the truth.
"Signed by a company?"
"You...why didn't you tell me earlier? You scared me to death!!!"
Upon hearing the truth, Sister Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then she choked and punched Lin Yuan's chest.
After spending many years together, she had long regarded Lin Yuan as a younger brother, and it was reasonable for her to reveal her true feelings.
"Okay, okay, Sister Zhao, then you can eat and cook as much as you want tonight to make amends to you."
Lin Yuan answered with a smile, but his eyes were moved.
"That's necessary!!" Sister Zhao was in a very good mood at the moment, and shouted with tears in her eyes. In this scene, those who knew that Lin Yuan was signed, but those who didn't knew thought that it was her who was signed.
…
"Come, let's wish Lin Yuan a bright star and great achievements in the future. Let's have a drink!"
"Lin Yuan, you must give credit to our Hengdian extras and prove to everyone that extras can produce big stars and movie kings!"
In the hotel box, more than a dozen people held up cups to bless Lin Yuan.
When they heard that he had been signed, everyone's first reaction was envy, and then they were happy for him from the bottom of their hearts. In their eyes, to a certain extent, Lin Yuan represented them and the entire Hengdian extras.
His high promotion also proves that extra performers also have the opportunity to succeed.
Facing everyone's blessings, Lin Yuan refused to refuse anyone who came, drinking one cup after another. After the whole banquet, he felt very relaxed.
There is no intrigue, no need to think calmly, and no need to please anyone, just speak freely and relax as much as you want!
After drinking until ten o'clock in the evening, Lin Yuan paid the bill. The total was 1,344 yuan, and the boss deducted 1,300 yuan.
After paying the money, Lin Yuan returned home in a hazy state of drunkenness. He fell asleep and did not wake up until ten in the morning. He washed briefly and walked downstairs with the luggage he had packed yesterday, planning to take a taxi to the station.
But when she was going downstairs, Sister Zhao had been waiting for her for a long time in a domestic car.
"Get in the car!" With a tone that could not be refused, Lin Yuan was not polite. He threw away his things and got into the passenger seat.
It seems that parting requires a sense of ceremony. There was no conversation along the way. When we arrived at the station and sent him to the platform, we waited for the train to arrive and looked at Lin Yuan as he was about to get on the train. Suddenly Sister Zhao spoke.
: "Xiao Lin, if you want to stand out and give your sister a voice, you must succeed, okay?"
"Yeah!!!" Lin Yuan nodded heavily and answered sonorously.
Hearing this voice, Sister Zhao waved goodbye with a slight smile.
Just when the train was whining and moving, Sister Zhao suddenly shouted to Lin Yuan who was sitting by the window.
"You must take good care of your health and don't work too hard. It doesn't matter if you don't get out. If you come to me, I will definitely take care of you!!"
The whine of the train was so loud that Lin Yuan did not hear it clearly and shouted outside: "What? Sister, what did you say??"
Seeing that Lin Yuan didn't hear clearly, Sister Zhao's impulse just now gradually dissipated a lot. After thinking about it, she still didn't have the courage to say it a second time, so she changed her sentence: "I say, you have to believe in yourself, you will definitely succeed.
of!!!!"
Along with this blessing, the train started moving, with a clanging sound, as it rushed to the next stop.
But the moving train didn't know that besides taking away the people on the train, it also took away the countless people on the platform without leaving any trace.
