The Whole Entertainment Industry Thought I Was an Alpha

Last New Year’s Eve, Lu Wei had been at the reception.

In Vanity Fair, Lu Wei drank all the wine in his glass, put the glass in the waiter’s wine tray, and turned to leave.

His father Lu Shaoming, with a beautiful Omega in his arms, just happened to pass by him and slurred his words a bit: “The media will take a group photo later, don’t forget to come out.

Lu Wei nodded expressionlessly, and then he suddenly smelled an Omega’s pheromones that smelled like greasy sugar water. He wrinkled his nose unhappily and quickly passed through them.

Two men were talking outside the toilet.

“See, Shengshi’s Lin Si posted a new update, and in less than ten minutes the number of likes had gone up to 100,000.”

“Shengshi these years is really relying on Lin Si to earn a lot of money, have you not seen outside, Lu Shaoming acting so proud. If it weren’t for the fact that Lin Si has a state-level party to perform tonight, he will not hesitate to bring Lin Si around”

“What will it look like when an Alpha like him bring an Alpha as a companion, and it’s like he’s not afraid of being a joke. “

“Anyhow, most of the assets was swallowed by the husband’s family, who knows that the style is still so petty, no wonder the media was saying that he was the benchmark of contemporary Phoenix men [1].”

“What did Lin Si posted that can get 100,000 likes in just ten minutes?”

“Nothing, just a selfie where you can’t even see a face.”

“Since the Omega equalization, there are more brain-dead people in the world.”

“That, Lin Si was so handsome, every day with a serious face, and a bunch of brain-dead fans talking about how handsome and young he is. But I think, he is Lu Shaoming’s ….”

The door of the cubicle was suddenly opened.

The man who came out was in a suit and leather shoes, his back was straight, and his pace was not fast nor slow as he swept past the two men, without paying attention to their panic and astonishment.

The water was flowing quietly from the automatic faucet. Lu Wei simply washed his hands, took out a paper, wiped his hands dry, and threw it into the trash can. The paper hit the trash can and made a light rustling sound, and it was evident in Lu Wei’s face that he didn’t feel bad about anything.

It was as if that the two of them were no different from that tissue.

They’re all rubbish.

Lu Wei opened the door and went out.

“Didn’t you look at the toilet and said no one was there?!”

“I also just glanced casually. He must be inside the cubicle. Maybe he didn’t hear what we’re talking about…”

Lu Wei opened the social platform and there was no need for him to search because Lin Si was already on the hot search.

It’s been a long time since Lin Si posted a selfie, and the fans were extremely excited while holding the “you can’t even see a face” selfie.

Lu Wei closed off the large picture of Lin Si and turned off his phone. Seemingly a little impatient, he put his phone in his pocket with extra effort to make sure it had fallen to the bottom.

Therefore, he remembered that the picture-

 [It’s Lin Si.]

Lin Si who was lying on the bed, looked at these three words without stopping. His heart cannot help but be pleased and he smiled pleasantly.

He turned over and asked 44: [Do you like Lin Si?]

After he asked this question, he waited for about ten minutes, but he didn’t receive a reply from 44.

Tiredness swept through his body at the same time. He squinted his eyes and left a message to 44 but fell asleep before he could finish the whole thing, sending out a message that was hard to understand.

[I’m sle-]    

Two days later, Lin Si sent another message to 44 but did not get a response. He was depressed for a while, and then indulged in the foot-soaking bucket Liao Ji bought him and forgot about it.

On the day of Script reading, Lin Si was forced to get up early, opened the closet, dressed in black, and stood in front of the mirror and sighed like an old man.

He actually doesn’t like black very much. Probably, because he wore it too often.

When he and Liao Ji arrived, there were already people in the conference room that he didn’t know very well, and then Qin Xiao, who came to him, was the Male lead of “Thinking of you Sixty-Six”.

“Sorry, I’m late.” Qin Xiao hooked the corner of his mouth and bent over slightly.

Lin Si didn’t stop near the door, pulled down his mask, and sat in his designated seat.

Neither the film crew nor the team was top-notch, but Liao Ji’s idea was that if Lin Si wants to move from the stage to the big screen, he can try the water first by taking on a moderate movie to prep him up.

In fact, following Lin Si’s popularity, he does not need to go to the point of lowering himself by playing a supporting role for others.

Originally, they had negotiated with the producer and director, and they just need to sign a contract.

But, Lu Shaoming, the old president of Shengshi, was rushed to the hospital and his son Lu Wei took over Shengshi Entertainment and directly refused the contract of “Thinking of you Sixty-Six”.

At that time, Liao Ji went directly to the top floor of the Shengshi Group for this matter. After suppressing his anger while waiting outside Lu Wei’s office for nearly half an hour, he had gotten a reply from Lu Wei’s Secretary.

“Mr. Lu had been recently busy and he just took over the group with ten to twenty large and small companies under him, he really had no time, but he said, Lin Si was not suitable for the lead role of that film. Later, Lin Si will be given other arrangements.”

Liao Ji was not a fool. Lu Shaoming knows how to value Shengshi Entertainment and Lin Si and his artists.

Now that the new president and staffs are in the company, Lu Wei obviously did not focus on entertainment companies.

Liao Ji retracted his breath and went back without speaking for a few days. On the contrary, Lin Si was happy, lying comfortably and touching his belly, while persuading him: “To be honest, I think the hero of this movie has some problems, quite indecisive. I prefer male supporting characters.”

Liao Ji retracted his breath and went back without speaking for a few days. On the contrary, Lin Si was happy, lying comfortably and touching his belly, while persuading him: “To be honest, I think the hero of this movie has some problems, quite indecisive. I prefer male supporting characters.”

These words reminded Liao Ji, that the protagonist can’t play around, but playing a supporting role would not affect anything. So, he can first put one foot in the film and television industry, and then see what happens later as he goes.

He told Duan Yang his idea and let him convey it. He didn’t want Lu Wei to talk a lot this time, so he quickly agreed.

Therefore, Lin Si took over the role of a supporting character for this film.

In the meeting room, Qin Xiao’s voice was very friendly, but there’s something about it that made it sound untrue.

Lin Si sat at the table and turned his phone up and down. After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he greeted several co-actors present: “Hello. I’m Lin Si, this is my first time acting in a film, I hope you can give me more advice. “

Perhaps because his voice was cold, that’s why people can’t say anything to “advice” for a while. Most of them just smiled and echoed: “Dare not, we often listen to your songs.”

“Thank you.”

He tilted his head and lowered his eyes and did not look very enthusiastic. He was used to saying words that were fit for “Lin Si” on such occasions.

It took two days for the script to be read. It was a week after entering the group. One-third of the film was shot before the year, and the rest was shot after the year. The management hopes for the film to be released in the summer.

The rest of the time before Lin Si entered the group was spent almost on various music awards and award nights. He received the music popularity award, and his speeches about the awards and other speeches flowed back and forth. He was dizzy every day that he can’t wait to sleep at home and let Liao Ji receive the awards on his behalf.

“You can be more relaxed at the annual meeting in the evening ” Liao Ji flipped through the script in his hand without raising his head. “At least you don’t have to walk the red carpet holding the hand of an old man this year.”

In previous years, when Lu Shaoming hosted the annual meeting of the Shengshi Group, he would like to drag Lin Si around.

This year was not necessary, Lu Shaoming should only be able to recall the past in the hospital.

Lin Si laid face down on the bed, his mouth pouted and moved: “It’s been so boring lately. When the annual meeting is over, you can accompany me to play video games.”

“No time, I have only made one-tenth of your schedule for next year and there is a schedule to start work in the next year. Also, the script for the next film…”

“Okay, don’t talk about it, Father Liao Ji, you really are becoming a high school class teacher.” Lin Si wrapped himself in a small blanket, ” The evening dress code is not black anymore, right? “

“Dark.”

Lin Si closed his eyes reluctantly: “You can wake me up when you’re going to do the styling.”

As a result, when doing the styling, Lin Si was not happy. As long as he smelled the wax, he felt sick, would frown, and would refuse to speak.

Lin Si opened his eyes when Duan Yang came over and knocked on the door, asking if the styling could be done faster.

Liao Ji asked, “Isn’t it still early, the event will start in an hour.”

“But President Lu had already arrived.”

Lin Si squinted his eyes with his head held down, and asked Duan Yang in a daze, “President Lu is cured? “

Duan Yang froze and smiled awkwardly, “It’s Chief Lu.”

” Oh. “

It turned out to be Lu Wei.

When Duan Yang left, Liao Ji looked at Lin Si. He wanted to say something to him, but Lin Si didn’t care much. He closed his eyes to make up for his sleep, so he didn’t say anything.

The stylist went to get the suit, Lin Si finally cheered up, seriously playing Dream Town on his mobile phone, collecting, and growing vegetables, and feeding chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep.

“I think… Mr. Lu’s illness may not get better,” Liao Ji said.

Lin Si blinked: “Yeah.”

Liao Ji wanted to say something but thought better of it, “Go back and talk about it.”

“Hmmm.” Lin Si perfunctorily replied to him.

After putting on his suit, Lin Si turned off the game, his eyes fell on the blue icon in his phone, he hesitated, and clicked in.

“44” is still under the red heart column in the contact list.

It was almost ten days, 44 still did not come to him, Lin Si’s mind was a little blank, and sent 44 a [Good evening].

Knowing that there would be no response, he closed the application and gave his phone to Liao Ji.

Together they knocked on the door of Lu Wei’s lounge.

The one who came out was Duan Yang. After confirming that it was the two of them, he gave way and let them in.

Lin Si saw Lu Wei briefly when his vision gradually expanded.

He was sitting on the sofa, wearing a black suit, and because his head was down, a part of his silhouette was slightly shadowed, which makes his facial features deep, like the deep water in a quiet winter night, bone-chilling and bitter cold.

Lin Si thought, Lu Wei is much more handsome than four years ago, but that does not stop Lu Wei from being a b*stard.

“President Lu.” Lin Si called out to him.

Lu Wei raised his head and looked at him.

After looking at him, he didn’t look again.

Lin Si knew that Lu Wei hated him, but he didn’t know why he would dislike him for no reason.

Lu Wei shouldn’t have smelled his pheromone.

“Is it necessary for Lin Si to accompany Mr. Lu on the red carpet later?” Liao Ji asked.

Duan Yang nodded. Lu Wei signed the document and said, “Just follow the previous annual meeting.”

In fact, two Alpha holding hands together on the red carpet is something that only Lu Shaoming can do. Again, Lin Si was a bit confused.

Why would Lu Wei also follow that foolish old father of his to disgrace?

Lin Si thought badly, it is true that the son inherited his father’s business, the stupid and bad egg gene can be also inherited.

The lounge was not very big. There were four people which makes it a little cramped. Duan Yang went out. After five minutes, Liao Ji picked up his phone and went out.

Lin Si had nothing to do, and his phone was taken by Liao Ji a while ago. He had sat upright for too long, now he felt a little sluggish, he then simply leaned back.

After a while, when no one came in, he spread his legs, put his hands on his stomach from his side, crossed his fingers in a mess, and squeezed his thumbs against each other.

Lu Wei suddenly raised his head.

Lin Si’s left thumb struck off the nail cover of his right thumb without warning.

“Are you nervous?” Lu Wei asked him, his expression still cold.

“No.” Lin Si also replied indifferently, treating Lu Wei with the attitude of the star “Lin Si”.

Lu Wei closed the document, did not speak anymore, and Lin Si returned to his restrained sitting posture before.

At about the same time, Liao Ji and Duan Yang knocked on the door. Lin Si got up and tidied his suit. He glanced at Liao Ji. After Liao Ji nodded to make sure there was nothing wrong, he stood by the door and waited for Lu Wei.

When Lu Wei’s right hand appeared next to him, there was a gap in his arm. Lin Si frowned and said to him, “Mr. Lu, we don’t have to hold hands, right?”
