Chapter 1615: Urban Strange Tales (The white prostitute cat has not appeared for several days)

"You're really awesome."

When Duanmuhuai saw MEM the next day, he also gave her a thumbs up.

"Oh, it's okay... Hahahaha, I just took a gamble and took a look."

MEM scratched his head in embarrassment.

"But now everything seems to be going well, which really makes me relieved."

"If people like you continue to stay in the entertainment industry, they will become Taishan-level seniors sooner or later. Come on, work hard."

"Wait a minute, even if my age is unknown now, this joke is too bad."

Faced with MEM's complaints, Duanmuhuai laughed.

"Ruby and the others are leaving it to you. If you encounter any trouble that can't be solved, you can come to me and the office."

"Is it really okay?"

"Of course, to be honest, I can't handle interpersonal relationships and sense of variety as smoothly as you do, but there are some things that just aren't enough for you. If you need my help, just mention it."

"Don't worry, I won't be polite until then."

Although he couldn't understand Duanmuhuai's words, MEM still smiled and stretched out his hand and patted Duanmuhuai on the shoulder.

At this moment, the door of the office opened with a bang, and then Magana, Akane Kurokawa, and Ruby walked in. In addition, Ms. Kyoko was also pushing a flatbed truck with a flatbed on it. There is a large cardboard box.

"Well………"

Duanmu Huai's expression changed slightly when he saw the cardboard box, but President Jingzi ignored it and pushed the cardboard box directly in front of him.

"Here, this is for you, this year's share."

"No, there are so many this year..."

Duanmuhuai wailed and collapsed on the sofa. Arima Kanae looked at the cardboard box curiously and asked.

"What is this? Fan letter?"

"It's not that cute. This guy has no interest in fans. The fan letters he sent before were all randomly found somewhere."

President Jingzi pointed at Duanmuhuai speechlessly.

"This is an invitation to invite Xiao Ai to star this year."

"so much!?"

Hearing this, Arimagana, Kurokawa Akane and others were all surprised.

"Because this guy is very lazy and only shoots one movie a year. So everyone is trying to be proactive. They want to book the schedule for Xiao Ai at the beginning of the year. Otherwise, they only shoot one movie and have to wait until it is finished. Next year.”

Jingzi looked at Duanmuhuai dumbfounded, and complained helplessly that there was such a lazy guy in her office, and she was speechless.

"There weren't many invitations before, but last year Xiao Ai starred as the leading actor in "Today's Sweetness". Everyone recognized his acting skills in this area, so there were more invitations. After all, as long as you film with Xiao Ai, Isn’t it easy to hire actresses who take the innocent route?”

"Ah, that's right."

Ruby nodded.

"After all, if I let my sister... Xiao Ai play the male lead, I don't have to worry about any scandals with the woman. It doesn't matter if the scale is bigger."

"Yes, that's it. At the end of the year, Xiao Ai also won the Best Actor Award. Coupled with that lazy acceptance speech, everyone knew that this guy still had no intention of working hard, so..."

"How should I put it... I feel really complicated..."

Staring at the invitations, Arima Kanae murmured in a low voice, with envy and jealousy in his tone. You must know that she takes notices and goes on stage constantly just to get more filming opportunities. But even if Magana is exhausted, the people who find her are only second-rate movies and TV shows, and the roles she plays are all supporting roles. .

How is it like Duan Muhuai, who lies on the sofa in the office all day long, browsing on his mobile phone and watching TV, but he is constantly invited, and they are always the protagonists or first-line characters...

It's really annoying to compare people to each other!

"Hey... bring these over and let me take a look at them slowly. Aunt Jingzi should have screened them all."

"Of course, these are first-line invitations, as well as morning slots."

"Woooooo!"

Arima Kana over there was about to cry. These were the opportunities she desperately wanted, but she didn't have any. On the contrary, Duanmu Huai had too many to choose from.

What does it mean that the bones are frozen to death on the road, and the wine and meat of the wealthy family are stinky?

That's it.

By the way, another very important point is that these scripts are actually from film companies affiliated to Duanmu Huai, or TV stations and other institutions that have holdings with him. It is because of this relationship that these scripts were sent to Duanmu Huai. Come. If it weren't for this relationship, Duanmu Huai wouldn't even look at it.

After all, making money for yourself is called making money, but making money for others is another matter.

"Actually, I would say you should take less drama."

Duanmuhuai glanced at Arima Kana and seemed to guess what she was going to say.

"Just because you take too many roles, many directors will have concerns about it."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, you also know that those who are in charge of the front line are all famous directors, and they are all the kind of people who strive for excellence in their works. If you take on so many dramas a year, it will really make them doubt whether you still have enough time and energy to play the role. The roles they want. From this point of view, it’s much easier for me. I only have to think about one role a year, so if those people want to play a role, they must come to me first.”

"is that so!?"

Hearing this, Arima Ganai screamed in despair, and Duanmu Huai also nodded. Last year, he also used his subordinate film companies to find resources and connections for Arima Kanae, but many people had doubts about her. The reason is that those directors are worried about whether Arima Ganay has enough energy to film according to their own requirements.

Not to mention them, even Duanmuhuai looked at Arima Ganai's schedule and felt that it would not be surprising if she died of overwork on the set.

"You're not a newcomer anymore. You don't need to work everywhere. Even if you need work, you can't just do it all."

Only Duanmuhuai can say these things. After all, although this is a matter that Maganai's manager has to take care of, if the artist works hard, the manager will certainly not be able to throw cold water on her. If the agent had followed his own ideas and rejected the announcement that Arima Ganai wanted to participate in the show, then Arima Ganai would have definitely quarreled with the agent.

And it is impossible for other artists to say this to Arima Ganai, otherwise they will be suspected of stealing jobs.

But Duanmu Huai doesn't have to worry about that. After all, he only shoots one movie a year. With Maganai having less work, it doesn't mean that Duanmu Huai has more work. In addition, Duanmu Huai's own gold content is here, and Ma Ganai will still listen carefully to what he says.

"Ugh...that's it. I really didn't expect it. Maybe I should think about this issue carefully..." Arima Ganai crossed his arms, frowned and went to the side to think hard. Kurokawa Akane, who passed by her, came over, sat next to Duanmuhuai, and looked at him curiously.

"So Xiao Ai, what kind of invitation are you going to accept?"

"Let me think about it...it's best if the role is relatively relaxed, can go to scenic spots, doesn't have many lines, takes a long time to shoot, and is more profitable..."

"......Ahhhhhhhhh stop talking, I don't want to hear it!"

The howl of a defeated dog could be heard in the distance, just pretend you didn't hear it.

After all, most actors can do well if they have some, and it's really rare to see people like Duanmu Huai who are qualified to be picky.

Of course, this is also because he is an investor in the film. In the Japanese film industry, he has the biggest financial backer in the world.

In fact, many of the jobs that Magana and Kurokawa Akane are taking now are related to this kind of relationship - the investment in movies or TV series and variety shows comes from Duanmu Huai's company, and then people will say, please pay more attention to our company's Berry. An artist from PRO Office.

Well, that's enough. There's no need to name names, but any crew member who has a little bit of insight will know what to do.

The work that Kurokawa Akane takes is relatively normal, but with Magana, the work she takes is too much, so Duanmu Huai also needs to give her a good wake-up call.

After all, she is an artist under her own banner anyway, and an actor is not an idol. She can be exploited for a lifetime if she can keep it flowing, but she cannot be let go like this.

"Xiao Ai, I will finish work at about seven o'clock today. Would you like the two of us to have dinner together?"

At this time, Kurokawa Akane came over with bright eyes and asked.

"Let's forget about these two days. I want to solve this problem first."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he pointed at the cardboard box in front of him. He is not opposed to going out to eat with Kurokawa Akane. After all, eating out here and there is quite fun. However, Duanmu Huai is the kind of person who will solve the current troubles first and then slowly enjoy himself. Now that he is working Invitations are coming to my door, so I have to make a decision first.

"Okay, let's wait two days before we talk."

Kurokawa Akane also obeyed, then packed up and left. Soon, everyone walked out of the office again and started their work for the day. Duanmu Huai, on the other hand, was lying on the sofa, eating tea and started flipping through the invitations.

At this moment, the door of the office opened again.

"Good morning."

"Hey, Mai, you're here."

Duanmuhuai raised his hand and waved to Mai Sakurajima.

"You came a little late today."

"Because I have a day off today and I just wanted to come over and have a look."

As Sakurajima Mai said this, she walked into the office and looked around.

"Where are the others?"

"They are all busy at work."

"That's just right."

Mai Sakurajima walked to Duanmuhuai and sat down, then took out her mobile phone and thrust it in front of Duanmuhuai.

"Look at this."

"What the hell? Is there any scandal or rumor about anyone?"

Duanmuhuai curiously looked at the content on his phone. However, to his surprise, what Mai showed him was not some rumor or scandal, but an urban legend.

"...Puberty syndrome?"

"That's right."

"Are you interested in urban legends?"

"no."

Mai Sakurajima shook her head.

"Take a closer look."

"Well, let's see... Puberty Syndrome refers to a mysterious and special event that happens to men and women during puberty... huh?"

Having said this, Duanmuhuai was stunned for a moment and looked at Sakurajima Mai.

"Are you saying that the weird situation you had before was puberty syndrome?"

"That's right."

Mai Sakurajima nodded.

"Although my symptoms have disappeared thanks to your blessing, in the final analysis, I still don't understand why I have such a strange situation. Indeed, I was troubled, and I even wished I could disappear from the world. But I’m not the only one who has similar troubles. Why is this happening to me only?”

"Indeed, this is also a very interesting question."

Duanmu Huai put down the invitation in his hand and squinted his eyes at the message board on his phone. This was the section for "Adolescent Syndrome". There were various cases on it, including "hearing other people's voices" and "seeing someone." Cases such as "someone's future" or "someone's personality swapped with someone else" can be seen everywhere.

What Mai Sakurajima said is right. There are countless people in this world who have similar troubles to her, so why is she the only one who has this symptom?

Or...

"Others had symptoms, but because I didn't observe them, they literally disappeared from the world."

"………………"

Mai Sakurajima trembled slightly.

"If that were the case, the world would be a terrible place."

For Mai Sakurajima, this is not a fantasy story on the Internet, but a real reality. If Duanmuhuai hadn't noticed her, I'm afraid Sakurajima Mai would have completely disappeared from this world. By then, she wouldn't even be on the missing persons list, because Sakurajima Mai had never existed in this world.

Just thinking about this made Mai Sakurajima shudder.

"interesting."

Contrary to Sakurajima Mai, Duanmu Huai's eyes were shining at this moment.

"It seems that this thing is worthy of investigation."
