Become famous another day.

Chapter 520 Come and pick me up!

What kind of movie did Lu Yanhe act in abroad?
Why is it covered so tightly?
As Lu Yanhe's first foreign film, almost everyone who follows Lu Yanhe is curious about this film.

You know, this is the case for actors from almost any country. After becoming famous in their own country, they are recognized overseas, and as they get to know more and more outstanding directors and producers, they are gradually noticed by others and begin to receive opportunities to act in foreign films.

Some actors always insist on making movies in their own country and rarely go abroad to shoot, but some actors have embarked on a path of globalization, not just going to Hollywood, and not just the globalization of commercial films. Collaborating with famous directors from all over the world has become a common feature of them.

If an actor wants to win a reputation and gain a foothold in the global film industry, he or she will almost certainly have to take the latter path, especially those who are deeply involved in the field of art films.

Everyone subconsciously thought that Lu Yanhe had taken on a foreign art film.

Because everyone knows that with Lu Yanhe's current situation, it is almost impossible for him to get a commercial blockbuster above A level.

Except for certain types of commercial blockbusters, there are no cases of Asians playing leading roles.

No one thinks Lu Yanhe will take on an ordinary role.

This speculation made Lu Yanhe's fans very excited.

Because they think that Lu Yanhe might win an award! Art film! Lu Yanhe is making another art film!
Everyone is looking forward to this movie like a holiday.

At this time, Lu Yanhe's film has not been dug out yet. Jiang Yuqian, who became famous overseas with "Squid Game", was revealed to be starring in a Hollywood action movie "Mysterious Ghost".

A name that sounds like a horror movie. According to information provided by the American magazine "Variety", this is a serious action movie. It tells the story of a group of mercenaries who are attacked by an unknown force. Everyone is in danger and wants to find out the force that attacked them, but they suffer heavy casualties in the process of confrontation. In the end, they find that the attack is related to an action they took three years ago.

In addition to this movie, Variety also broke the news that Chinese actress Jiang Yuqian is in contact with French film director Donovan Mottovani to collaborate with Maxine on the series "Perfect Truth".

Once these two pieces of news came out, Jiang Yuqian, who had been popular for half a year with "Squid Game", finally had a new drama. Her fans were also excited.

Is their favorite idol Jiang Yuqian really going to become an international superstar?
-
As Jiang Yuqian's agent, He Heng has been very busy in the past six months, spinning like a top, as Jiang Yuqian's career has been on the rise again.

The movie "Mysterious Ghost" is starring Mam Valentine, a top American actor, and several well-known actors are invited to join. It is a serious A-level production that will be released globally.

To put it bluntly, they came to find Jiang Yuqian because of the popularity of "Squid Game" and the Chinese market behind her.

For an action blockbuster like this, there is no need to talk about art or the charm of the actors.

Those were all said on the surface, and He Heng and Jiang Yuqian knew it clearly in their hearts.

However, they have some needs for Jiang Yuqian, and Jiang Yuqian also needs this film to complete the first step of her next career plan.

He Heng had an in-depth discussion with Jiang Yuqian and planned Jiang Yuqian's future path after "Squid Game".

First of all, she needs to recognize the current situation. She can no longer take on two failed dramas just for the sake of transformation and awards, as she did after "The Golden Era".

Secondly, she should grasp the core competitiveness of her current competition with actresses of the same level, that is, international fame. "Squid Game" made her a hit, both domestically and abroad. As an actress, if she can use two to three years to consolidate the label of "international fame and influence" in the eyes of domestic media, it will be a golden step for her career.

"But there is one more thing, Yuqian. No matter what, we have to make a Chinese drama every year, whether it's a TV series or a movie. We can't lose the domestic film and television market." He Heng said, "Our internationalization is just a means. The ultimate way is to gain a firm foothold as an actor. There is no shortage of Asian actresses in Hollywood. Many people go to Hollywood. On the contrary, European and American art films are a relatively rare field. Now that streaming media is so developed, we can always find some big art film directors to make films for them."

"Our core concept is to take on roles that can add another layer of gold to your golden body. Action movies, suspense films, theatrical movies, streaming media, it doesn't matter. In the next two to three years, we will not go for the boutique route, but to make your name appear frequently in reports by major media around the world, such as the report on you by the American magazine Variety. This will attract much more attention than if we release the news ourselves."

Jiang Yuqian nodded.

"For a drama like 'A Perfect Mind', Donovan approached me to play a role that only has six scenes, and the total screen time may not exceed 20 minutes. Now it's causing such a fuss. What should I do if everyone is disappointed after watching it?" She was still a little worried.

He Heng: "Don't worry, we won't do any false publicity, saying that we are the main actors in this drama. It's definitely expected by everyone. But you also have to know that this is Donovan Motovani, the director who won the Best Director Award at the Cité International Film Festival. Do you know how many stars he attracted to act in the drama "A Perfect Truth" with Maxine? There are twelve well-known and famous actors, most of whom are not the protagonists. The fact that you can appear in such a cast is a symbol for us and the public - you are a Chinese actress who appears in Donovan's new film with these people."

Jiang Yuqian understood what He Heng meant.

She is not the only one who plays such a small role. There are many famous actors in the same situation as her.

"The only reason we took this role is because we want to work with Director Donovan. Remember this," He Heng said. "Don't say there are only two scenes. Even if there is only one scene, you are willing to act. We should show this attitude in front of the media. If you said that "Mysterious Ghost" is because it is a blockbuster and can be released worldwide, then "Perfect Truth" is because it is a new play directed by a director you like very much. As an actor, you can't give up an opportunity to work with a director you like."

Jiang Yuqian nodded suddenly.

"Remember to watch more of Donovan's past films during this period and be familiar with his creative resume. There will definitely be many occasions where you will need to be involved. If this cooperation can leave a good impression on Donovan, we may be able to cooperate on many projects in the future."
-
In fact, if Lu Yanhe were here, he would think that He Heng’s idea was really correct and right.

From what Lu Yanhe knew, there were actually two actors in the same situation.

One is the Irish actor Cillian Murphy, who just won the Oscar for Best Actor, and the other is the Korean actress Bae Doona.

The former actually started playing the leading actor very early, but for more than a decade, he has always played supporting roles in Nolan's films, and many times he has even played small supporting roles. He has never stopped acting in Nolan's films because of this, and he still responds whenever he is called and acts in any role.

So, in "Oppenheimer", Cillian Murphy finally got his leading role, and won the Oscar for Best Actor for this film, reaching the top in one fell swoop.

The latter is a very famous actress in South Korea. After collaborating with the director of "The Matrix" in the famous and star-studded bad movie "Cloud Atlas", she teamed up with the two brothers (sisters) who directed it and starred in many of their dramas. As a result, she was the first to catch the spring breeze of streaming media and became the first Korean actress since the millennium to be truly labeled as "internationally renowned actress".

This has allowed her to take a path that is completely different from that of most Korean actresses. She continues to act in Korean film and television dramas, but she does not beg for the capital of domestic chaebols. She can appear in Hollywood movies, is a frequent guest at top international film festivals, works with famous film director Hirokazu Koreeda, and has the support of Netflix to star in a series of hit dramas such as "Sense8", "The Forest", and "Kingdom".

In Lu Yanhe's eyes, Jiang Yuqian is indeed suitable for this path, because she has a starting point that other actresses don't have - "Squid Game". This means that she is not starting from scratch, she has a very good foundation.

If she can walk out of a path that others want to walk on but cannot, it means that she can still stand firm for the next ten years and not be squeezed out by others.
-
In comparison, it’s a pity for Jiang Jun, the male lead of "Squid Game".

There were also foreign producers who were interested in him and extended olive branches to him.

However, on the one hand, Jiang Jun's English was not very good, and there were great obstacles in communication, so he could only rely on translators. On the other hand, Jiang Jun himself had two series to shoot, "Seventeen Floors" and "Wulin Waijia", and his schedule was very tight.

But Jiang Jun himself didn't feel it was a pity.

He is the type of actor who wants to film in an environment that he is familiar with.

Jiang Jun felt that he had been lucky enough in the past two years. He had gone from being an unknown actor to suddenly becoming a candidate for the leading actor in major dramas. Moreover, because of his age and image, his market in the field of TV dramas was even bigger than that of young actors like Lu Yanhe and Yan Liang. Whether it was a life drama or a spy drama, he had more than a dozen scripts every month, which was very exaggerated.

Even if he cannot enter the international market in one fell swoop, he will be very satisfied.

Of course, in the eyes of many people, Jiang Jun wasted a very important opportunity.
-
"Jiang Jun's situation is different from Jiang Yuqian's. Jiang Jun doesn't need to take the risk of going abroad right now. He has just become famous in China and has not yet established a firm foothold in the country."

When analyzing Jiang Jun's situation, Chen Ziyan seemed to have an idea in mind.

"If he were to accept foreign dramas now, first of all, it would be difficult for foreign countries to give him any good projects. One "Squid Game" is not enough for him to get a big-budget A-level drama abroad, but this would take up his best time. In China, he still has three series to shoot: "Seventeenth Floor", "Wulin Wai Zhuan" and "Squid Game", which means he has no time to shoot other domestic dramas. At his best time, all domestic producers wanted to cooperate with him, but they couldn't cooperate, which meant they missed a very critical time. He can't shoot these three dramas for a lifetime."

Lu Qingzhen said: "But for an actor, whether or not he has participated in international productions makes a big difference to his resume."

"You are looking at Jiang Jun with a celebrity mindset. Do you think Jiang Jun can become a celebrity?" Chen Ziyan smiled and shook her head. "For Jiang Jun, even if he has no experience in international productions, it will not affect his current development in China. For an actor with acting skills like him, as long as he stands out, his future development will not be bad."

Lu Qingzhen pondered for a moment and said, "But if that's the case, Jiang Jun has only succeeded in becoming a top player, right?"

"Just made it to the first-tier?" Chen Ziyan looked at Lu Qingzhen in surprise.

Lu Qingzhen: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not so arrogant as to think that being a first-tier star isn't enough. I just think that Squid Game is our first series to have such a big impact around the world, and Jiang Jun is the absolute leading actor. If he only becomes a first-tier star in China, wouldn't that be a waste of all the opportunities this series has brought him? Jiang Yuqian doesn't need to be mentioned, Liu Zefan has also started to receive scripts from Maxine."

"I know what you mean, but I don't agree with your point of view." Chen Ziyan said, "Not every actor must seize the opportunity to film internationally. Jiang Yuqian and Liu Zefan can do it because they have a basic fan base in China and have been popular for several years. Another reason is that they are very young and can play supporting roles in foreign dramas, but for Jiang Jun, do you want him to play a supporting role in a foreign project? In "Squid Game", he is undoubtedly the protagonist and the focus of the whole drama. After starring in such a globally popular drama, what do you think if he plays a supporting role in a non-big director and non-big production project? This is called low status. Their different situations have different ranges of choices. Jiang Jun is now a person who became famous overnight. He is unstable inside and not strong outside. In this case, he must first stabilize the inside."

Lu Qingzhen was thoughtful after hearing this.

She gradually accepted Chen Ziyan's idea.

"Now that you've said it, I'm starting to understand."

"Because you must first understand a very crucial truth. Overseas is overseas after all. Their mainstream will always be actors who look like them, not Asian actors. Even if an Asian actor wins the Oscar for Best Actor or Best Actress one day, that is just one person. It will never change the reality that white people in Europe and America are the mainstream in Hollywood."

Chen Ziyan said to Lu Qingzhen: "The internationalization route is a means for actors to have better career development. To put it in a more vulgar way, it is a means to raise their status and status. But if you really intend to achieve global fame through the internationalization route, to be honest, it is almost impossible, because people will not give you mainstream roles that are truly global and can create superstars. For Europe and the United States, Asians are always supporting roles and embellishments. This is a fact that cannot be changed. When can Chinese actors really go international on a large scale? Only when China has established distribution channels around the world and has achieved the dominance of Hollywood in the film industry and the influence of the four major international film festivals in reputation and honor, can Chinese actors go international on a large scale. Otherwise, there will always be only a few actors who stand at that vent who can go international."

Lu Qingzhen: "What about Yan He? He starred in "The Mist" for the first time he went abroad. To be honest, I have a hunch that Yan He will be able to achieve great success even in Europe and the United States."

"If it wasn't Yan He, but another actor who has achieved the same success as Yan He, I would be skeptical." Chen Ziyan directly expressed her disapproval. "I believe that we Chinese actors do have the opportunity to star in one or two European and American movies, or even genre films like "The Mist" directed by famous directors, but how many projects with Asian characters as the protagonists can there be in Europe and the United States every year? It's not that we didn't have Chinese actors in Hollywood in the past, but why is it that in the last era, there may be only one or two people who can leave a mark? Again, the projects over there are not built with Asians as the protagonists. Only when you really reach a certain level, it is possible for the film companies over there to tailor a role for you. Otherwise, no matter how popular you are, no matter how good the box office of your last movie is, and no matter how much the audience appreciates your performance, there will be no roles for you to play in the future, and you can only pick your feet at home."

Chen Ziyan shrugged her shoulders. "You said Yan He can do it, and I agree, but that's because Yan He has the ability to write his own scripts. He has two streaming media, HP and Maxine, watching his every project behind the scenes. His starting point is a height that many Asian actors will never reach in their lifetime. After filming The Mist, if Yan He wants to continue to make English, French or even Spanish films, he can, because he has the creative ability and can tailor it for himself. But besides him, is there another actor with this ability? I'm not talking about the ability to write and create, I'm talking about the ability of writing and creating to be chased and paid for by overseas capital."

Lu Qingzhen was silent.

Chen Ziyan is absolutely right.

Films written and starred by Lu Yanhe are, apart from other things, watched by the four major international film festivals. For example, "Love Letter" has almost been shortlisted for next year's Jose Antonio Film Festival.

As long as it is not a drama like "Wulin Waijiao" with an obvious Chinese cultural background that foreigners will definitely not understand, HP and Maxine will scramble for it.

The award has both commercial benefits and there is no shortage of influence and money.

This is the core confidence that enables Lu Yanhe to pursue internationalization.

Even without Chen Ziyan's explanation, Lu Qingzhen knew that if Jiang Yuqian and Liu Zefan failed in one or two international projects, they would basically be abandoned by foreign producers and would no longer be given opportunities. They would be considered to have left "Squid Game" and were not liked by overseas audiences.

They don't have a deeper foundation to continue their opportunities to try.

This is even more true for Jiang Jun.

While Jiang Yuqian and Liu Zefan would still have their domestic positions at that time, Jiang Jun would most likely lose even his domestic positions as a result.

Because he never defended it in the first place.
-
On the set of "The Mist", Lu Yanhe is finally going to shoot his first scene.

The special effects makeup alone took almost two hours.

According to Director Muken's idea, every time Lu Yanhe appears, he will be surrounded by thick fog, and his image is no longer the same as usual. Special effects makeup is needed. There is a burn mark on the left side of his cheek, and then a layer of cement-textured paint is applied on this mark.

Through the storyboards made by Muken himself, Lu Yanhe basically understood what kind of effect Muken wanted. In fact, it was very similar to the effect of Voldemort's appearance, with a strong sense of atmosphere, and his image itself was also part of this atmosphere of hatred and gloom.

What’s amazing is that Lu Yanhe originally thought that after such special effects makeup, he would be hard to recognize in his current appearance, but the result of the makeup was not the case, and it could still be seen at a glance that it was him.

Lu Yanhe's image in the movie will continue to change as his revenge progresses, and he will gradually recover his appearance before his death, until the last person dies. Then he will completely recover to his appearance before his death, that is, a handsome and delicate boy.

Therefore, Lu Yanhe was originally looking forward to having an image that he could not even recognize after the special effects makeup.

Lu Yanhe's first scene was at Albert Bogut's house.

There was a sudden power outage in Albert Bogut's house. Lu Yanhe appeared at this time and took the first step of his revenge.

In this scene, he only appears in one shot, a flash past Albert Bogut's eyes.

But because this shot is Lu Yanhe's first appearance in the movie, it is very important.

He arrived at the scene.

Today is studio shooting.

Albert Bogut's home in the movie was a makeshift one.

Almost all the indoor scenes with Lu Yanhe's appearance were basically shot in a studio. This was to make it easier for Lu Yanhe to use wires to maintain the thrilling feeling of a ghost suddenly appearing in mid-air.

Like today's scene, Lu Yanhe suddenly flew out from behind the curtains of Albert Bogut's house and attacked him like a ball of black air.

If it is in a normal house, there is not enough space to set up the wire.

When Albert Bogut came out of his lounge, he showed a surprised expression when he saw Lu Yanhe.

This was the first time he saw Lu Yanhe in a movie.

"Wow! You look so cool!" Albert Bogut, a handsome blond and blue-eyed guy, looked at Lu Yanhe with admiration.

Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "Don't talk to me now, I'm going to scare you later."

Albert Bogut was still looking at Lu Yanhe, marveling at him.

He crossed his arms and said, "I was a little confused. You are so handsome, how can you play a vengeful ghost? Now I see you like this, I am really surprised." Albert Bogut is a very proud and confident person. Lu Yanhe has felt this in the past few days of dealing with him.

At first, Lu Yanhe thought that Albert Bogut really looked down on him, because Lu Yanhe could clearly feel that although Albert Bogut did not say it, he always had some doubts about him. He could even occasionally notice that Albert Bogut looked at him with a puzzled look from time to time.

Later, it was Muken Sorge who told him that Albert thought he was too handsome and was worried that he would not be able to scare the audience if he played the Asian ghost.

Today, Albert Bogut finally spoke out to him for the first time.

Lu Yanhe smiled slightly and said nothing.

When it comes to acting, there is no point in saying so much. You just have to act it out to see the real thing. That works better than anything else.
-
Albert Bogut can really act.

The critics' praise for him is well-founded.

As he held up the flashlight on his mobile phone and walked carefully in the dark room, the monitor showed that his eyes were filled with nervousness, caution and uneasiness.

He is an actor who acts with his eyes.

The scene was silent, creating a terrifying atmosphere for Albert Bogut.

Suddenly there was a sound of something falling to the ground.

That was the "clang" sound arranged by Muken. Albert Bogut didn't know there would be such a sound at the scene. He was really scared and looked towards the source of the sound. At that moment, the tension as if his teeth were clenched clenched, seeped out from the camera.

Muken Sorge's horror films are always known for their atmosphere and rhythm.

Lu Yanhe has seen the two films he directed before, and it is easy to understand why the two films achieved such good box office results.

When Muken makes films, he doesn't use pretentious methods to make horror films - this has always been the most criticized and disgusting aspect among horror film fans.

Just like this film, this clip, Muken's script uses a structure with three turning points.

Albert was alone at home when there was a sudden power outage. He carefully went to find the circuit breaker to check what was going on. Suddenly, some inexplicable noises were heard in the house, which gradually brought out the sense of uneasiness and crisis with the "clang" of things falling and the "click" of mechanisms turning.

Then, Albert looked in the direction of the sound and found that the reason for the noise was that the window was not closed. An alarm clock on the windowsill fell to the ground due to the curtains blown up by the wind, causing a "clang" sound and subsequent clicking sounds.

Albert breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and the atmosphere of the film also eased a little at this time.

But suddenly at this moment, a flash of white lightning appeared, and he suddenly saw a blurry figure behind him in the reflection of the window glass.

Albert's scalp suddenly went numb. He turned around and looked. When he shone the light of his mobile phone, he found that it was not a human figure, but a piece of clothing he had hung behind the door.

He let out a long sigh, and in this heavy rain, he went to close the window and draw the curtains.

The ghost that had been hiding behind the curtain was exposed in the camera.

This shot was carefully designed by Muken.

Thanks to the power outage and dark design, in the scene where Albella draws the curtains, in the very dark shot, as the curtains move, a pair of very old canvas shoes actually appear under the curtains.

But Albert took no notice of it.

The only difference was that because his cell phone was hanging by his leg, the light just happened to hit his canvas shoes.

The pair of canvas shoes were obviously floating in the air and belonged to someone.

This is the first seriously scary scene.

Muken's treatment is - there is no scary music, nor the protagonist's horrified expression, but it suddenly appears in front of the audience in a moment that no one notices in the movie.

Therefore, after this shot, the audience's tension and fear were one step ahead of the protagonists in the movie.

The fear changed from uneasiness about the unknown to when the protagonist would discover the existence of the ghost and when the ghost would unexpectedly attack the protagonist.

This kind of nervous and uneasy feeling of fear is just like when you see a person standing under a shaky light board. That person doesn't know that he might be hit by the light board above his head in the next second, and you see it. At this moment, you put yourself in his shoes, feel nervous and uneasy for him, and may even shout out to remind him.

But in the cinema, you have no way to remind him, you can only watch nervously and anxiously, not knowing how the plot will develop next.
-
In an ordinary horror movie, the scare point of this scene would definitely be set at the moment when the ghost suddenly rushes out from behind the curtain, scaring everyone.

But in this movie, it is not the kind of scare that gives you a sudden shock. Instead, it is like a Grim Reaper wielding a scythe falling from the sky and slowly appearing in front of you. You turn around and run, and the Grim Reaper is slowly chasing you from behind. The faster you run, but he is always behind you. Your fear slowly accumulates in the process and becomes a huge fear that permeates your whole body and finally makes your limbs stiff.

So, when Arne Bogut did not notice the ghost hiding in the curtains at all and turned around to go to the basement to check the switch, the ghost played by Lu Yanhe gently lifted the curtains and floated towards Arne Bogut like a cloud of mist. Arne Bogut finally realized that something seemed to be wrong. He held the door handle, wanting to open the door, but did not dare to move.

Lu Yanhe landed lightly behind Arne Bogut, as if invisible, and whispered in his ear, as if with some regret and a bit of resentment, and sighed softly: "Have you found me?"

At this moment, Arne Bogut let out a sharp roar, turned around and punched forward, but he hit nothing and went straight through Lu Yanhe's body - this scene requires post-production special effects.
-
Arne Bogut turned pale.

The lights on the set have been turned back on.

All the staff members are busy with their own things.

Arne Bogut turned around and said to Lu Yanhe: "I'm sorry."

The punch he threw just now almost hit Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe reacted quickly and dodged immediately.

He smiled, "It's okay, I understand."

He was standing behind Arne Bogut just now, and the distance between the two was less than a fingernail.

He could clearly feel the hairs on Arne Bogut's body standing up.

He was really frightened, and threw a punch out of stress, forgetting his sense of proportion. Lu Yanhe himself is an actor, and he understands this state very well.

On the one hand, Muken created a very immersive and one-to-one performance environment for the actors. During the filming just now, there was almost no light on the scene, only cold light, and all the staff were hiding in the darkness outside the room.

Including the wire used by Lu Yanhe to float over from the window, all were controlled by technicians outside the room, which meant that there were really only him and Arne Bogut in the room.

On the other hand, Arne Bogut is an experientialist. He was completely immersed in the situation just now, so much so that even though he was acting, his emotions at that moment made him forget that he was acting.

Lu Yanhe didn't even see Arne Bogut's performance from the front. Just from his back and the feeling at that moment behind him, he knew that Arne Bogut's emotions must have been very good.

He was just about to praise Arne.

When he turned around, he found that the way Arne Bogut looked at him had completely changed.

Arne looked as if he was looking at an incredible monster.

Lu Yanhe: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Arne said: "When you said that in my ear just now, I felt like my heart stopped beating."

Lu Yanhe showed a surprised expression.

"Lu, you scared me."
-
"You said that Lu Yanhe went abroad to act in a horror movie?"

Chen Ziliang looked at Ma Zhiyuan in disbelief, shocked by the news he brought.

Ma Zhiyuan said: "Yes, I overheard someone in the company say it by chance, it's absolutely true."

Chen Ziliang curled his lips and said, "I thought he was going abroad to make a good movie, but I didn't expect it to be a horror movie."

"Horror movies are cheap. If it were a high-budget movie, Lu Yanhe wouldn't be cast. He's just popular in China. Do you think he's as famous as they say he is internationally? If he was that famous, why would he stay in China? Wouldn't it be better for him to go to Hollywood and make dollars?"

Chen Ziliang smiled, then suddenly reacted and looked at Ma Zhiyuan.

"But why are you suddenly telling me this? Do you want me to expose this news?"

"I didn't mean that. I just wanted to share it with you. I think you would definitely like to hear this news." Ma Zhiyuan shrugged. "Anyway, I can't compete with him now. It's nothing more than eating melon and gossiping a little."

Chen Ziliang looked at him suspiciously.

Chen Ziliang said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Give it a couple of years. With your previous popularity, it will be easy to get back on your feet. But, are you becoming more and more self-indulgent now? I see you seem to have gained a lot of weight."

Ma Zhiyuan: "I don't have any stage work now, so why should I keep in shape? I can get a little fatter if I want."

"You must be so disappointing to your fans," Chen Ziliang said. "So many fans online are calling on you to work more."

"Whenever I come out to work, Xu Qinyin's fans come to the scene and cause trouble like crazy. As a result, no event organizer is willing to invite me, and my work is basically at a standstill." Ma Zhiyuan sighed.

"You haven't reconciled with Xu Qinyin yet?"

"What reconciliation? If it weren't for her, would I have ended up like this?" Ma Zhiyuan's face revealed hatred and disgust.

Seeing this, Chen Ziliang sighed in his heart, "If I had known this would happen, I would not have done it in the first place."

"Does Zhou Ping'an have any plans for you?"

"His mind is completely focused on Yan Liang, how could he still remember me?" Ma Zhiyuan sneered.

Chen Ziliang: "You...you don't really have no life at all, do you?"

"Forget it." Ma Zhiyuan still looked nonchalant, "It would be better for me to quit the circle almost like this than to humble myself and take part in those low-level and embarrassing jobs."

Chen Ziliang wanted to say something, but when he saw Ma Zhiyuan's look, he gave up.

Actually, it is true. Ma Zhiyuan has been a top star for so many years, and he must have earned a lot. Even if something went wrong at that time, he terminated many contracts and paid a lot of liquidated damages, but the remaining money is enough for him to be a rich and idle person for the rest of his life.

If Ma Zhiyuan really didn't have the determination to make a comeback, there would be no need for him to start all over again.

How can a person who is used to being the center of attention wherever he goes accept his own downfall?

When Chen Ziliang looked at Ma Zhiyuan now, he thought of himself.

Although his popularity is no longer what it used to be, at least he can still make a living in this industry with the connections, fans and works he has accumulated in the past. Besides, he is just not as good as Lu Yanhe, Li Zhibai, Yan Liang and others. In the entertainment industry, he is not as good as the best, but better than the worst.

"I don't know if I can see Lu Yanhe fall from the altar one day." Ma Zhiyuan suddenly said again.

Chen Ziliang smiled nonchalantly and said, "Who wouldn't want to see that?"

Ma Zhiyuan: "If Lu Yanhe really fell from grace, he should have a lot of resources to allocate, right?"

He looked at Chen Ziliang meaningfully and smiled.

"Ziliang, have you ever thought about replacing Lu Yanhe?"

Chen Ziliang: “…”

He really didn't expect that one day he would have such a feeling——

Was Ma Zhiyuan driven insane by the blow?

Replace Lu Yanhe?
He dares to say that!

Who can take it, who can replace it?

Chen Ziliang thought that he would have to draw a clear line between himself and Ma Zhiyuan in the future. It is not terrible for a person to be out of fashion or no longer popular. What is terrible is that this person has a muddled mind and the words he says are like being fried in a frying pan, which will break into pieces with a slight bite.

While smiling, Chen Ziliang secretly took out his cell phone and sent a message to his agent Yan Wei: Come and pick me up quickly!
