Cineworld Emperor Chapter 1

"I broke the contract first. I will accept any punishment the company wants to impose on me."

"Brother Geng... I can't help it this time." Lennox Jiang took a deep breath of cigarette, put the cigarette B*tt in the ashtray, and whispered, "After paying compensation for the company's breach of contract, my side Give you your part again."

Miles Geng just got off the plane at night. First he was bombarded with a bunch of information and was confused. Then he was called to the company and was scolded by several leaders. He was so angry that he didn't even bother to eat dinner. He just blocked the river. When the Chi family came, they originally wanted to lose their temper at Lennox Jiang. Who would have thought that before he could curse, Lennox Jiang unconditionally admitted his fault.

"I, I don't care about my share." These words were too false. Miles Geng was only angry because Lennox Jiang cut off his financial path. Now that he knew that Lennox Jiang would not pretend to be stupid and fool him, he felt a lot more comfortable and vague. He said, "Think about it for yourself, have you gone too far in this matter? You even hid it from me as an agent. After the company knew the news, could you not be anxious? What do you think this is?"

Thinking of Lennox Jiang accepting the movie behind his back, Miles Geng became angry again and said sternly: "It's not because you accepted the movie with zero pay! Does the company care about money?! The entire team has already planned your career! What about you? ? Accepting the role without authorization, or accepting this, this..."

Miles Geng was speechless when he thought of the movie Lennox Jiang was filming.

A few months ago, Lennox Jiang privately accepted a movie.

This is not a little-known small studio, the entire production of the film, from the director to the screenwriter, is top-notch, with a plot of two male protagonists and a second episode of Jiang Chiyu.

It has been more than a year since Lennox Jiang became famous, but he has never appeared on the big screen. Miles Geng has been paying attention to it for the past six months, trying to find some opportunity to insert him into a crew. He did not expect to be the male lead and be able to appear on the big screen. Just show your face.

Now I'm continuing to work in dramas. I made my big-screen debut by cooperating with a big director and resisting the banner of starring. It was like a huge piece of cake. It's a pity that this is a gay-themed literary film.

Lennox Jiang didn't even ask for a penny of pay just to squeeze into this crew.

He was originally the mainstay of making money for the company, but now he can't make any money for at least half a year, and several senior executives in charge of Lennox Jiang are in trouble.

"All the savings you worked so hard for last year! It doesn't matter if you lose it all now, and you have offended the company! Do you think it's worth it?" Miles Geng hated that iron can't make steel: "It has only been popular for less than a year! It’s a critical time. At this critical moment, you have more than half a year to make a film that cannot be released in mainland China! What’s going on in your mind..."

"Didn't you tell me that? After all, I have to make a movie to please the fans." Lennox Jiang remained calm and unhurried, "It's quite suitable for a movie that purely earns reputation."

"Stop fooling me with my words!" Miles Geng blurted out, "You are fighting for this film because the other starring role has already been decided to be Ronan Ye! I don't know what you are thinking?!"

Lennox Jiang was startled, with a flash of embarrassment in his eyes. He turned his head and coughed dryly, and unconsciously took out another cigarette.

Miles Geng regretted his words as soon as he spoke. Seeing this, he changed the topic and said dissatisfied: "I just wanted to ask you, why did you start smoking?!"

"The demand for filming." Lennox Jiang lit up his cigarette, took a puff, and choked, "I... I quit after I finished filming."

Miles Geng frowned: "Pay attention to the occasion and don't get caught smoking outside. You haven't transformed into a sportsman yet."

"I know." Lennox Jiang nodded, frowned slightly, and slowly smoked his cigarette.

Lennox Jiang is only twenty-three years old this year, and his face still has the youthful outline of a young man. Sitting on the sofa learning to smoke like this is inexplicably a bit unbearable. Thinking about the punishment from the company, Miles Geng softened a little, sat down again, and sighed: "Because you were injured last time filming, everyone sympathized with you, so they applied for these three months of leave for you. It's good for you." , while no one is watching you in private... Forget it, how is it over there? I've heard before that Ren Haichuan is quite difficult to get along with. "

"No, Director Cedric is very good." Lennox Jiang knew that he had passed the test and smiled, "I have been in the group for a month and learned a lot from Director Cedric."

"Then..." Miles Geng hesitated, "Where is Movie Emperor Ye, you and him..."

Lennox Jiang flicked the ashes from his cigarette, cleared his throat, and said slowly: "Ye Yingdi is a nice person, and he is quite polite to me."

Miles Geng was silent and automatically translated Lennox Jiang's words: After filming for a month, Lennox Jiang couldn't get to know Ronan Ye.

Even though he was annoyed that Lennox Jiang had made his own decisions, Miles Geng felt a little sympathetic to Lennox Jiang after hearing this. He had to pay so much money and time just to get in touch with Ronan Ye. Unfortunately, it seemed that Ronan Ye had no intention of having a close relationship with Lennox Jiang.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to be "polite" after filming a rivalry scene for such a long time.

But this is not surprising.

Who is Actor Ye?

Ronan Ye was born in a major and became famous at a young age. He made his first movie when he was a junior in college. With his good looks and excellent acting skills, he won the Best Actor Award on the eve of his graduation from college. He graduated with two trophies in his hands, and his stardom has been bright ever since. From the time he left school to now, Actor Ye has been famous for ten years and has dominated the big screen for ten years.

Over the years, whether it is film resources or business resources, Actor Ye has been at the top, win-win reputation and popularity, steady and popular, and popular.

Where is Lennox Jiang?

Two years after graduation and four years into the industry, he has participated in more than 20 TV series and starred in three. Most of the TV series he starred in were rejected. The company originally had no hope for him. A period drama in which Lennox Jiang played a supporting role became a hit last year. The villain played by Lennox Jiang in the drama unexpectedly attracted fans. With this role , Lennox Jiang quickly became famous, and his popularity once surpassed that of many young talents in the entertainment industry. Taking advantage of this stock style, Lennox Jiang took on a reality show. With his lovable personality, he won a lot of fans, and he became one of the top stars in one fell swoop.

The red is really red, but everyone knows that filmmakers like Actor Ye who live at the top of the entertainment industry pyramid all year round will not take Lennox Jiang seriously.

The two are not on the same level at all.

If it weren't for Lennox Jiang who was fortunate enough to have a professional background and was willing to endure hardships if he had acting skills, he wouldn't have been able to get into Ronan Ye's crew even if he gave him extra money, not to mention that he didn't want to be paid.

Lennox Jiang himself knew these very well.

"I didn't expect anything to happen." Lennox Jiang was very optimistic and said with a helpless smile, "How is that possible... But when I heard that there was such an opportunity, I was unwilling not to fight for it, and I also didn't want to Sorry, I learned a lot, and..."

He can still get along with Ronan Ye day and night. Although Ronan Ye has always been lukewarm towards him, at least Ronan Ye will always look at him while filming.

The scenes in the first month were mostly conflicts, and there were very few scenes with rivals, mostly on location. The two of them often filmed their own things, but in the next few months, they would have a "honeymoon period", and Lennox Jiang had already memorized the script by heart. He could speak Ronan Ye's lines right away. Thinking of Ronan Ye speaking those sweet words to him affectionately in the play, Lennox Jiang felt that it was worth all the breach of contract.

Miles Geng looked at the slight blush on Lennox Jiang's face and felt a little sad. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll take care of it for you at the company. Come back and give me a copy of your crew's schedule. I'll take a look..."

Lennox Jiang said sternly: "Brother Geng, Director Cedric can't possibly let me get involved in the show, and I don't agree with it myself."

Miles Geng said angrily: "Isn't it just for you to get your money back? Okay, I understand... Is there a show tomorrow?"

Lennox Jiang nodded: "Yes."

...

"It's an outdoor scene and a night scene. If the old man is even slightly dissatisfied, it will cost him another day." In the box, the corners of Ronan Ye's eyes were already red. He blocked the wine glass handed to him by the visitor and sneered, "There will be several scenes tomorrow." I didn’t say it at all, but you came here to play with me...and you dared to tease me."

The people in the box laughed, and an actress who was familiar with Ronan Ye smiled like a flower: "I'm sorry, I didn't know you would have a show tomorrow. If I had known, I wouldn't have tricked you. It's my fault, Fletcher Yu, his boss doesn't Tell us."

Ronan Ye was good-looking, and his demeanor was even more charming when he was drunk. Almost all eyes in the box were focused on him. An actress next to him couldn't help but put down her body, poured a glass of water for Ronan Ye and handed it to her. Ronan Ye raised her eyebrows. , took the wine glass filled with water, raised the glass to the actress in a gentlemanly manner, and smiled: "This glass is for you."

The actress' face instantly turned red.

The person who served Ronan Ye drinks was Fletcher Yu. He debuted a few years earlier than Ronan Ye, and he also won the Best Actor that year. The two have collaborated several times, and their relationship in the industry is considered good. When Fletcher Yu heard this, he raised his head and drained the wine in his glass. He leaned next to Ronan Ye and said, "What's the show tomorrow? Is it the glass one?"

"Yeah." Ronan Ye rubbed his eyebrows, "Fortunately, there is nothing to do in the morning... Otherwise, if I go there smelling of alcohol tomorrow, I will be scolded by Ren Haichuan."

Fletcher Yu also drank a lot. He rubbed his face, struggled to recall, and asked, "How long have you been filming? A month, right?"

"It will be two months soon." Ronan Ye squinted slightly due to the dazzling lights in the box, "It will be about four or five months..."

Fletcher Yu raised his eyebrows: "Didn't you say it was a small-production, low-budget movie? Did it take so long?"

There was a bit of comfortable pride in Ronan Ye's eyes, and he laughed softly: "The film that won awards based on it will be filmed in two or three months. Who are you fooling?"

Fletcher Yu smiled: "Awesome."

"Hey! The kid you're playing with is named Lennox Jiang." Fletcher Yu asked, "How's it going?"

Ronan Ye said: "Very good."

Fletcher Yu teased: "Little fresh meat..."

"No." Ronan Ye shook his head, "He's not the kind of person who won't be confused when he's praised. He has a good temper, is quite humble, and has good acting skills. That old guy Ren Haichuan likes him and says he's attentive... "

"Okay, okay...there have been too many interviews recently? Why are you talking to me in such a bureaucratic tone?" Fletcher Yu lowered his voice, "I also heard about it two days ago. His contract with the original company seems to be next year. It's due. I want to ask how your kid is doing. If the opportunity is right, I would like someone to contact us to see if he is willing to come to our place for development. "

Fletcher Yu jointly founded Time Media a few years ago with his old employer. It was tepid before, but its resources have gotten better and better in the past two years, and many artists have been signed in a year.

"There's nothing wrong with me." Ronan Ye said, "Why don't you come back to visit my class and see for yourself."

Fletcher Yu smiled: "Isn't it enough to look at photos? I need to see him in person. I just want to ask about his temperament. I'm old and can't stand those crazy people."

"Not crazy." Ronan Ye squinted his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "The temperament is okay, the face and frame are okay, he is the kind of person who is not crippled, and will last you a few years. His figure..."

Ronan Ye didn't know what he thought of and smiled.

"Ouch." Fletcher Yu handed Ronan Ye a cigarette with a smile, and took one himself. He lit a cigarette and said with a vague smile, "Don't listen to you praising a male artist like this. What's wrong with your figure?"

Ronan Ye took a puff of cigarette, bit the cigarette holder gently, and said with a smile: "My little B*tt is very perky."

Fletcher Yu laughed in a muffled voice: "Is that okay, Movie King Ye? After all, he is also the number one male idol in the film and television industry. Is it appropriate to look at someone's young B*tt all day long?"

"Filming needs." Ronan Ye leaned on the sofa and said lazily, "Sign it. If you sign it, I can watch it every day."

Fletcher Yu glanced at him: "Real or false? You quite like him?"

Ronan Ye blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Generally, the person who is joking with you is not familiar with him."

Fletcher Yu guessed the same. When he saw Ronan Ye leaning on the backrest with eyes closed, he knew that he was really drunk. He looked at the time and said, "Don't you have a show tomorrow? Why don't you go back early? I'll see you off."

"No need." Ronan Ye opened his eyes, "I asked Lao Jin to come pick me up."

Fletcher Yu was helpless. He thought he had a good relationship with Ronan Ye, but Ronan Ye was like this. As long as he drank alcohol, he would definitely not get into anyone else's car, including him.

Ronan Ye looked at him carelessly. People in the same circle could be friendly with everyone, but there were some things about him that he could always distinguish clearly, as if these friendships were just a necessary part of his work. No matter how good the external relationship seemed to be, It will also be clearly divided by him outside the private sphere. After so many years, Fletcher Yu didn't know the specific location of Ronan Ye's family.

Ronan Ye smoothed his hair, picked up the phone with drunken eyes, opened the address book, slid to the list starting with J, blinked drowsily, and reluctantly sent a message: In the prime of life, come and pick me up.

Ronan Ye threw the phone aside and laughed amidst the cheers of the crowd: "Come on... let dad sing the last song for you."

At the same time at Lennox Jiang's house, Miles Geng stood up and said, "I don't know about your filming these days, so I haven't given you any more assistants. I'll mention it to the company tomorrow..."

"No, no, no." Lennox Jiang hurriedly shook his head, "It's enough for Xiao Li to follow me. It's useless to have more. Ronan Ye just brought two assistants there, and I dragged Wu Yangyang along to let the others on the crew see what they wanted. "

Geng Tianyi thought about it and sighed: "Okay, you have asked for mercy and got mercy. If nothing else, just shoot well. From now on..."

After the drama is finished and filmed, it will be almost impossible to have the opportunity to contact Ronan Ye again.

Miles Geng swallowed the second half of the sentence and was about to turn around when he heard Lennox Jiang's cell phone buzzing.

Lennox Jiang's mobile phone was placed on the table, and with a burst of vibration, the screen lit up:

[In my prime, come and pick me up]
