Become famous another day.

Liu Zhen and Zhong Benshuo were stunned at first, then Liu Zhen looked at Zhong Benshuo.

Zhong Benshuo said something to Liu Zhen, probably explaining what Lu Yanhe had just said.

After hearing this, Liu Zhen laughed, pointed at Lu Yanhe and said a few words.

Zhong Benshuo also laughed.

"Yan He, don't worry, what happened in this room will never be spread out."

Zhong Benshuo gave Lu Yanhe a look that said "relax", and then, as if to prove to Lu Yanhe that it was really safe here and there was no need to worry, he reached out and grabbed the hand of the woman who walked in front of him. With a gentle pull, the woman sat on his lap with a smile, and placed one hand gently and softly on his shoulder.

Lu Yanhe took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

"Mr. Zhong, I love my girlfriend very much, so thank you and Senior Liu for your kindness, I don't need it anymore." Lu Yanhe insisted, then looked at the woman standing in front of him somewhat at a loss, and said to her in English: "I don't know if you can understand English. If you can, I don't need you to come and accompany me."

The woman looked at Jong Ben-seok and Yoo Jin helplessly.

Zhong Benshuo looked at Lu Yanhe deeply, then turned and whispered something to Liu Zhen.

The smile on Liu Zhen's face paused slightly, then he made a casual gesture and gave the woman a look that said "go down".

In this environment, Lu Yanhe felt very uncomfortable.

Liu Zhen waited until the woman left before he looked at Lu Yanhe with a smile.

After that, it was just a normal chat, nothing of value. It was nothing more than finding a suitable opportunity to film together or work on a project together in the future. If Lu Yanhe needed Liu Zhen's help with anything, he could ask for it at any time, and so on.

Lu Yanhe barely maintained his social etiquette and did not get up and leave directly, but in his heart he had an attitude of "respectfully declined" towards Liu Zhen. Lu Yanhe actually didn't care about the flesh-and-blood relationship between the two of them. He was not a moral saint who could not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. However, he did not like to bring him to such an occasion when they met for the first time.

They didn't really understand him, nor did they sound out his opinion in advance. They just blatantly made arrangements for him with the attitude of "food, sex and human nature" without any explanation.

Lu Yanhe felt very disrespected - even though their attitude was so enthusiastic and they seemed to be very friendly to him, chatting in such a "private and frank" environment on their first meeting.

After staying for ten minutes, Lu Yanhe thanked him and left, saying that he had filming to do tomorrow morning.

Zhong Benshuo didn't expect Lu Yanhe to ask to leave so soon.

But Lu Yanhe was determined to leave, so Zhong Benshuo had no choice but to see him off.

Lu Yanhe walked out of the room and said to Zou Dong and Wang Biao who had been waiting outside, "Let's go."

Zou Dong and Wang Biao could see the dissatisfaction in Lu Yanhe's heart at a glance.

Without asking anything, he just nodded and followed.

Zhong Benshuo caught up.

"Yan He, are you really not going to play for a while? Why are you leaving so early?"

Lu Yanhe stopped and said to Zhong Benshuo very seriously, "Mr. Zhong, I hope you won't take me to a place like that and make some arrangements that I'm not aware of without informing me in advance next time."

Zhong Benshuo's face became somewhat stunned and ugly.

Lu Yanhe took a deep breath, nodded to him, and left.

When Lu Yanhe and the others returned to the hotel, Chen Ziyan's video conference was over.

When Lu Yanhe told Chen Ziyan what he had just experienced, Chen Ziyan became furious and almost wanted to roll up her sleeves and scold Zhong Benshuo.

Lu Yanhe said: "Sister Zi Yan, forget it, just don't have any more contact with him in the future."

Chen Ziyan's face turned pale and looked very ugly.

"I almost got tricked by him! If this kind of thing is seen by others and the news spreads, your career will be ruined!" Chen Ziyan said, "This is not a joke. In Korea, they can still act even if they take drugs. It's not the same in China. Once you get involved in this muddy water, do you think you can come out clean? You will never be able to be a high-quality artist with an open mind. Every day after that, you will live in worry about scandal exposure. The more successful you are, the more afraid you will be, because you know that the place you stand on is unstable and may collapse at any time."

Every word Chen Ziyan said was like a hammer hitting Lu Yanhe's heart.

A feeling of fear came over me.

What if my acting career is really ruined because of this? I feel a chill down my spine.

Chen Ziyan said: "I was also negligent this time. These things are very chaotic abroad. In the future, when I go abroad, I will not go anywhere unless I know someone I trust."

In fact, Zhong Benshuo can't be considered a stranger in any way. It is precisely because Zhong Benshuo arranged this trip very carefully, so Chen Ziyan and others didn't expect that Zhong Benshuo would encounter such a thing when he took Lu Yanhe to meet an actor like Liu Zhen at night.

Lu Yanhe sighed.

"Actually, I felt something was wrong after I went in, but I thought at the time that since it was Liu Zhen, this shouldn't be the case. I didn't expect..." This may sound a bit hindsight, but it is indeed the true situation.

Chen Ziyan said, "It's okay. Luckily you held your ground and didn't fall for the temptation. You should learn from your mistakes. You should take a rest first. We still have filming tomorrow morning."

Lu Yanhe nodded.

"it is good."

Chen Ziyan waited for him to leave, and the expression on her face, which had just relaxed a little, became gloomy again.

You have to be prepared -

If the fact that Lu Yanhe entered that room tonight is exposed, there would be no way to explain it, not even if I jumped into the river. I have to make a public relations plan in advance.

Besides, she also had to have a serious negotiation with Zhong Benshuo.

Things can't just pass by like this without a sound. Don't use those rubbish to corrupt Yan He!
Chen Ziyan has been in the entertainment industry for too many years and has seen many people being dragged into trouble because of accidents like this.

Lu Yanhe is still young and easy to be targeted.

Chen Ziyan sounded the alarm for herself.

The next morning, Zhong Benshuo did not show up. Of course, they did not expect him to show up, and the morning work had nothing to do with Maxine. Lu Yanhe finished shooting a Korean fashion magazine - this was the cover that his endorsement brand Math bought for him.

This is also the first time that Lu Yanhe has shot the cover of a Korean fashion magazine. Male artists appear on the cover of fashion magazines much less than female artists, and Lu Yanhe himself doesn't shoot very many. Basically, the endorsement brands pay for it, and he acts as a spokesperson to promote the brand.

He didn't enjoy shooting for magazines that much, because he had to strike various poses, which was not his forte. He was very comfortable with the camera, but he was not comfortable with posing. Fortunately, he had some experience and managed to finish the shoot.

It wasn't until the end of the filming that Zhong Benshuo suddenly appeared.

There was still a bright smile on his face, as if the unpleasantness when Lu Yanhe parted with him last night did not exist, or had disappeared.

After Lu Yanhe said goodbye to the photography team, he said in a very exaggerated tone: "As expected of you, even when shooting for a magazine, you have such a cinematic feel! When I watched from afar, it was as if I was seeing a scene from a movie! Your eyes are full of stories."

After Zhong Benshuo's exaggerated praise, Lu Yanhe could no longer keep a serious expression.

He looked at Zhong Benshuo and sighed.

"Mr. Zhong, the fan meeting doesn't start until the afternoon, you don't have to come and accompany me in the morning."

"I'm your biggest fan, and I really want to see how you work on the magazine shoot," Zhong Benshuo said. "After you left yesterday, Brother Liu Zhen praised your acting skills highly, saying that you have top-notch potential among the younger generation of actors, and that you will definitely become a superstar in the future."

Lu Yanhe was not very receptive to being praised, let alone praised so harshly by someone like Zhong Benshuo. He shook his head and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhong, stop praising me. It's not true. It's getting late. We are going to have lunch. Will you go with us at noon? Or do you have other plans?"

Zhong Benshuo said: "I have already made arrangements for lunch and came to pick you up for lunch."

"Arrange? Thank you for your kindness, but we saw a hot pot restaurant online that we really want to go to, and we have already planned to eat there." Lu Yanhe said.

Zhong Benshuo: "Ah? I have already booked the restaurant."

"I'm so sorry, you didn't tell us in advance, and we have already reserved a seat." Lu Yanhe said directly.

At this time, Chen Ziyan finished chatting with the people from the magazine and came over.

"Mr. Zhong is here." Chen Ziyan played to her gender and professional advantages. At this time, she was not polite at all and directly wrote the four words "yin and yang" into the pronunciation of every word.

Zhong Benshuo was stunned for just a moment before he immediately realized why Chen Ziyan had such an attitude towards him.

He didn't rush to explain anything, he just smiled and played dumb.

In the end, Zhong Benshuo still shamelessly followed them to the hot pot restaurant, as if he couldn't understand Chen Ziyan's expression. He didn't mention what happened last night at all, and only found other topics to talk to them.

Lu Yanhe was also amazed at the end. How could one person be completely unaffected by the other person's attitude and sing a big opera for several hours in a lively manner?

I can only say, no wonder he is doing well in Maxine, he must be good at something.
-
A total of five hundred people managed to grab tickets for the fan meeting in the afternoon and attended the event.

Lu Yanhe never thought that there would be 500 people in Korea coming to see him offline.

It was not until he stood in front of these 500 fans and saw that almost every one of them was holding a light board or a poster in their hands and making excited, wave-like shouts that Lu Yanhe felt a sense of reality.

He and Chen Ziyan have never managed fans or trending searches here. It can be said that their popularity and fame have basically grown wildly. Because of this, they are surprised by the current situation.

When facing his fans, Lu Yanhe is still very enthusiastic and very grateful to them.

One fan said that she drove for several hours to get here, and she was very happy to see him in person in her lifetime, and was very moved. Lu Yanhe was frightened by the word "in her lifetime", and smiled and shook his hands, saying: "Not really, not really, seeing me is not worth becoming a wish in your lifetime, which puts a lot of pressure on me, but thank you for liking me."

One fan said excitedly that she liked Friends very much, but she was upset when she heard that he would not be in the second season. She even cried for a week. Lu Yanhe said inwardly, "Huh?" A week? He could only comfort her, saying, "As an actor, Lu Yanhe, I will continue to have works to accompany you. There is a long time to come. You don't have to cry for a week. You are very beautiful. If your eyes are swollen, it will affect your appearance."

The fans sat down happily.

This face-to-face communication allowed Lu Yanhe to directly feel what Zhong Benshuo had been emphasizing.

Streaming media can allow a play to go from a relatively closed place to the whole world.

When we were filming "Friends" and "The 17th Floor", we never thought that the dramas would have such a big impact in Japan and South Korea and have so many viewers.

Before Lu Yanhe came, he was still a little proud of himself. He was already liked by many people in China and was already a big star with many fans. Korea and Japan were not his strongholds. It was good if some people liked him, but it was not something that needed to be overcome urgently if no one liked him or knew him.

However, from the moment he met the fans who came to pick him up at the airport to this moment, standing on the stage and hearing every fan express their love for him in person, Lu Yanhe had to admit that he was greedy, even greedy.

He just wants more people to know him, pay attention to him, like him, and recognize him. This is also a kind of spiritual opium, which is addictive. His so-called calmness and self-control are just a cross-section. In the final analysis, he is not a hermit who lives in seclusion. Whether he admits it or not, he is a person who is essentially a bit vulgar and still pursues fame and fortune.

Lu Yanhe didn't expect that when he stood on the stage of this fan meeting, he would suddenly have a better understanding of himself.
-
This fan meeting was also broadcast live on Maxine.

Zhong Benshuo received data from his colleagues that this fan meeting had nearly 70,000 viewers, with the highest number of simultaneous viewers reaching more than 40,000.

This is a very impressive figure considering the nature of this activity.

As the data model calculated, many users on Maxine are his fans. When they see his face, they will click in to take a look. Lu Yanhe's event was not recommended on the big picture, but only emails and reminders were sent to subscribers of "The Seventeenth Floor" and "Friends" to tell them that there is such a live broadcast of the fan meeting. In addition, it was promoted on small channels and social media. With such promotional resources, such a number of viewers were obtained.

Looking at the data, Zhong Benshuo became more convinced that he had made the right decision to invite Lu Yanhe over this time.

Inviting Lu Yanhe to come over, from his labor fee to his and his team's food, clothing, housing and transportation, the cost is not small. But it is worth it. Maintaining a good relationship with Lu Yanhe is secondary. The number of viewers of these two live broadcasts and the publicity effect generated can easily earn back the cost.

Zhong Benshuo thought of the magazine that Lu Yanhe had shot this morning.

Korean fashion magazines have always been very exclusive, especially when it comes to celebrities from other Asian countries. The cover resources are either reserved for their own people or given to those from Europe and the United States. The fashion magazine that Lu Yanhe shot today is not one of the top ones, but it is also a first-tier magazine, and it is still difficult to get on. But Math threw money at the editor-in-chief's office, urgently formed a shooting team, and prepared a shooting plan overnight, and jumped the queue to get the April issue schedule.

What Zhong Benshuo saw from this incident was nothing but Math's emphasis on Lu Yanhe. The importance a brand attaches to a spokesperson is not determined by the fancy titles or commercial flattery it gives to a spokesperson, but by how much money it is willing to spend on this person and what kind of treatment it is willing to give him at critical moments.

From this point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that Lu Yanhe is Math’s own son in Asia.

Anyway, according to the news from the fashion circle, Math has never spent so much money on a cover for any of its Korean spokespersons.

Zhong Benshuo is determined to further cooperate with Lu Yanhe. (End of this chapter)
