Chapter 30: Return to Beijing!
After the show, Ye Xuan returned to the hotel room. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. The more he thought about it, the more he felt he had been cheated.
Why did you agree to him?
This is too cheap for him...
Why do I, a great TVB actress and the number one female lead in "The Best in the World", be with a little-known supporting actor?
Is it just because he is handsome?
However, Ye Xuan had to admit that he did have a good impression of Cao Jun, especially when he thought of Cao Jun's anxiety and concern when he was carrying him.
9 pm.
Ye Xuan called Cao Jun and invited him to his room.
In the room, Ye Xuan looked foolishly, staring at Cao Jun in front of him, pursed his lips, raised the corners of his mouth, showing a smile, and asked softly: "Junjun, what do you like about me?"
It was rare to see Ye Xuan's tone be so gentle and his expression so affectionate. Cao Jun was almost moved. Fortunately, he was not an honest person, otherwise, he would really not be able to withstand it.
Cao Jun pretended to be affectionate and said: "Sister Xuan, I don't know why I like you. I only know that when I think about leaving Wuxi soon, I can't let you go."
However, Cao Jun's answer did not make Ye Xuan feel very happy, and he immediately asked with a smile: "Isn't it because I'm pretty, Sister Xuan, that you like me?"
Cao Jun smiled "haha" and said, "You can understand it this way. If you are not good-looking, I may not necessarily like you."
Ye Xuan was very satisfied with Cao Jun's answer and replied with a smile: "If you weren't handsome, I wouldn't like you!"
In fact, in Cao Jun's mind, the entertainment industry, a place where materialism prevails, is too pretentious to talk about love, and too extravagant to talk about love.
Therefore, Cao Jun's attitude towards Ye Xuan and Jiang Xin was rather perfunctory and cynical, or in other words, he had no intentions at all.
The experience of two lives made Cao Jun full of pessimism about love.
Especially in the entertainment industry, Cao Jun has always felt that it's just a matter of fun and don't take it seriously.
Unless one day, Cao Jun is unlucky and really falls in love with a woman who makes his heart beat, then that is a different story.
The night was getting darker. In order not to disturb other people's rest, Cao Jun returned to his room as soon as midnight.
In the next two days, Cao Jun and Ye Xuan were still very friendly working partners. They filmed together during the day and reviewed the script together at night. They were tired and happy at the same time.
Perhaps because of limited time, the two of them never had any quarrels or conflicts when they were together.
No one in the crew of "The Best in the World" knew that Cao Jun and Ye Xuan had a very good relationship in private.
Because they were inseparable in the movie, they often went out together after the movie. In order to cultivate their relationship, Guo Jinan and Chen Yirong often flirted and flirted with each other on the set, and even called each other "husband" and "wife".
In comparison, the relationship between Cao Jun and Ye Xuan as colleagues is nothing ordinary in the eyes of outsiders.
February 27, afternoon.
After filming the last scene, Cao Jun quietly left Wuxi Film and Television City with a salary of 22,000 yuan, waving his sleeves and not taking away a single cloud.
February 28, evening.
Cao Jun returned to the capital. Not long after he got off the plane, he received a call from Zhou Yiwei.
"Ajun, let's have dinner together tonight!"
"Okay, where to eat?"
"It's just near our college."
"Can!"
So Cao Jun and Yiwei ate at a restaurant near the Beijing Film Academy.
While pouring wine for Cao Jun, Zhou Yiwei said impatiently: "A Jun, I received a movie, and the screenwriter liked me very much and wanted me to play the male lead."
When Cao Jun heard this, he immediately became interested and asked in disbelief: "What kind of screenwriter is this? He's so awesome that he can choose the male lead by himself."
Because in Cao Jun's understanding, ordinary screenwriters do not have much say when choosing male and female protagonists, unless they are screenwriters like Jin Yong, Qiong Yao, or Yu Zheng, Wang Jing.
Zhou Yiwei didn't dare to say anything and said in a low voice: "My play is Teacher Haiyan's. Please don't tell anyone else. It's still under confidentiality."
Cao Jun nodded: "Don't worry, who can I talk to?"
Cao Jun thought for a while and then asked: "By the way, tell me how you fell in love with Teacher Haiyan?"
Zhou Yiwei told Cao Jun everything in detail.
It turned out that as early as a week ago, when Cao was still filming "The Best in the World" with Wu Xi, the crew of "Sunshine Blooms Like Flowers" happened to be casting actors in Beijing, and Yiwei Zhou also went there.
The director who was interviewing him at the time asked him directly: "Have you read any of Hai Yan's books?"
Zhou Yiwei was also always confused and answered directly: "No."
The director was a little angry at the time and said, "You haven't read Hai Yan's book, so what are you doing here?"
When Zhou Yiwei heard this tone, he thought, come on! There was still no chance, so he left without saying a word, but in the end, he unexpectedly won Hai Yan's favor.
Because Hai Yan felt that Zhou Yiwei's character was very suitable for the male protagonist of "Sunshine Blooms Like a Flower", so Zhou Yiwei got his first leading role in his life like this.
After understanding what happened, Cao Jun couldn't say anything else. After all, no one knew whether many things were true or false without seeing them with their own eyes.
Moreover, Cao Jun, as his senior and friend, was very happy for Yiwei to get such an opportunity to take charge alone.
So, Cao Jun raised his glass and said with a smile: "Yiwei, I won't say any more depressing words. This opportunity is rare. You must seize it. I wish you an instant success! Realize your dream of being an actor as soon as possible!"
"
Hearing Cao Jun's words, Zhou Yiwei was also very moved. After all, humble vocational college students like him and Zhang Songwen mostly had a bad life, and many of their classmates had already changed careers as soon as they graduated.
It is rare to have such an opportunity now, and Zhou Yiwei cherishes it very much. He also raised his glass and said with a choked voice: "Okay, Ah Jun, let's drink this glass!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two drank all the liquor in the trophy.
To be honest, Cao Jun was still envious of Zhou Yiwei. After working as an extra for two or three years, he suddenly got the lead role. It was like pie in the sky.
However, Cao Jun is not in a hurry. He feels that as long as his first album can carve a niche in the mainland music scene, everything will be fine.
