Our Virtual World Love Affair Chapter 10

Why choose him?

Murphy looked into Chen Anping's eyes and said nothing.

Chen Anping smiled and continued, "People who have been in the entertainment industry for a long time can handle all kinds of strange and bizarre roles. These are their abilities, but they can hardly act out the immaturity, shyness, and sensitivity of their youth. Because the more experienced people are, the harder it is for them to return to their original nature. Even if they act, they will always be uncontrollably affected. This is why relatively successful youth films often cast newcomers." He leaned back on the sofa and relaxed. "After I went back, I watched the videos of each audition actor. There are many who act better than you, but you are the only one who showed the feeling that Yu Ning should have at that age."

As he was talking, he suddenly laughed, "Especially when I was acting with Hayes, the nervous and uneasy feeling made me even doubt whether you two really had a relationship."

Murphy smiled awkwardly, "That was the first time we met."

"Just kidding." Chen Anping suppressed his smile. "When I saw you guys acting together, I was basically certain about it. Besides, Hayes later told me..."

Murphy was a little confused: "What?"

Chen Anping seemed to remember something and shook his head. "Nothing special. Anyway, after the audition, I felt that it was almost you. But there is one thing that I find strange. Later, I found a lot of TV series and movies you have filmed before. To be honest, they are really terrible."

"It's completely different from the feeling you had during your audition. I just want to ask you, what happened to you that suddenly opened your eyes?"

A series of ellipsis appeared in Murphy's heart...

It's not the same person at all.

"In fact, I do not know..."

Chen Anping used his usual sharp eyes to scan Murphy for a long time, and finally accepted the other party's vague explanation, "It doesn't matter. The main purpose of my conversation with you today is to make you relax. You can play Yu Ning not because of any additional conditions, but because you are indeed the most suitable candidate. So keep your current feeling, treat Yu Ning as yourself, and act well. Do you hear me?"

I see.

Murphy, who always took things as they came, felt the joy of being affirmed for the first time and nodded heavily.

Although his image is very suitable for Yu Ning, his hairstyle is still a little bit unsuitable. After joining the crew, the director deliberately had Carter's hair cut shorter to make him look younger. His facial features originally have a natural childishness, and his skin is whiter than that of ordinary girls. Although he is already 23 years old, he has no pressure to play a 17 or 18-year-old boy.

Murphy was busy all day and only returned to the hotel to rest at night. Although he joined the team, he couldn't find a chance to talk to Hayes at all. He was a little frustrated. At this rate, when would he be able to complete the task?

After taking a shower and lying on the bed in a daze, Murphy remembered that Sheldon's OST would be released today, and as a teammate, he should help promote it. So he opened Weibo, quickly forwarded Sheldon's new Weibo, and left a small love in the comments.

Soon his comment was picked up by sharp-eyed fans. Murphy really liked reading comments.

[Yi Yi Sheng Hui]: Look what I got! Catch a cute one alive!

[Daydreamer]: My daydreaming unpopular CP will also have a sweet day!

[Meng Meng is the best]: When our Meng Meng was on the hot search list, she was able to calmly help Baiyu advertise. She is so naturally cute...

[I am Carter's wife]: Is the team completely inactive? Carter Square has been slaughtered, what are they doing!

[Did Carter act cute today?]: Mengjia, calm down, this is not the place for quarrels...

How is this going?

Murphy found that the direction of the comments was not right.

Trending? Square?

He exited the Weibo post and went to the trending search page, only to find that his name was number one on the trending search list.

Not only that, [Carter Hayes], [Carter Nan Ke], [Yu Ning casting Carter] are all in the top ten of the hot search list.

Has it been officially announced? When Murphy clicked on the top trending search, he saw not the official Weibo of the Nan Ke crew, but the photos of the start of filming released by several marketing accounts. Each photo was not very clear, and only the figures of several leading actors could be barely seen.

[The Moonlight is Beautiful]: Did the paparazzi take the photo while pedaling the sewing machine? I am not a fan, but this is the first time I have appreciated Carter's looks, her beauty cannot be hidden even by the blurry images.

[Lovely Ben Ai]: Holy sh!t! This is Carter!! Carter and Hayes? ? Is this true or not? Who can wake me up?

[Mango Shaved Ice]: What's the point of having good looks? With Carter's acting skills, how could he have the nerve to be in the same crew with an actor of the movie star level like Hayes, and even play opposite him? This is a complete public execution.

[Xigua Xigua]: I’m just a passerby. I’ve always liked Director Chen’s movies. But now even Director Chen has begun to succumb to the market. I feel so sad.

[气增云梦泽]: Some fans please stop pretending to be strangers here. Director Chen has always been very strict in casting. Since he has confirmed that it is Carter, he must have his reasons. Don't bring up the rhythm of Director Chen's decline here. How shameless.

[Xiaofeng Canyue]: I am not surprised that Hayes would star in a movie of this theme. What is surprising is that a celebrity like Carter would actually star in a gay movie? ! ! I can’t imagine it.

...

Murphy didn't scroll any further. His fans were also working hard to control the comments and promote the product. However, Murphy knew that from a passerby's perspective, no one wanted to see the fans' controlled comments.

It doesn’t matter. He has been aware of this since the day he chose to fight for this role.

Ava: "Mr. Xu, if you are unhappy, I suggest you don't use Weibo for the time being."

Murphy: "No, I'm not unhappy. They didn't scold me."

Ava: "...You have a point."

From Carter's perspective, these things on Weibo are very frustrating, but he can't let this happen. Behind these public opinions, there are people who are fanning the flames. He must dig deeper information from these superficial appearances to ensure the smooth progress of the main task.

Feeling a little hungry and was considering whether to go out for dinner, the doorbell of the room rang. Murphy put down his phone and opened the door, and saw Zhang Xiaoxiao standing at the door carrying two large bags.

"Brother Carter, I ordered takeout for you!"

Murphy quickly took the food from Xiao Xiao's hand, and said happily, "I'm just hungry. Come in and eat together."

Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head, "I've eaten, Brother Carter, you eat first. I still have things to do, so I'll leave first."

This little assistant seemed to be walking on Hot Wheels. He came and went quickly.

Murphy opened the takeaway bag and the aroma filled his face.

Well, it's a little angel riding on Hot Wheels.

There were a lot of fried chicken, French fries, hamburgers and the like in the takeout box, all of which were the junk food that Murphy liked to eat. At the beginning, he wrote about Carter's food preferences based on his own model, which now seems to be very wise.

Murphy held a chicken wing in his left hand and a glass of fat otaku happy water in his right hand, and completely forgot about the quarrel on Weibo just now.

Just as we were enjoying our meal, the doorbell rang again.

Zhang Xiaoxiao is here again?

Putting down the food in his hand, Murphy searched for a pair of slippers for a long time, but only saw one. He simply didn't wear them and went down barefoot to open the door.

The moment the door was opened, Hayes saw Murphy with wet hair, bare feet, a full mouth, and a pair of big eyes.

When Murphy saw Hayes, he subconsciously wanted to close the door, but the other party squeezed in first.

"Hey, we are partners after all. I don't think we should be so hospitable as you are."

Murphy realized that he shouldn't have closed the door, but his mind was a little confused and he didn't know what to say. Hayes found his look funny and cute.

"I'm eating."

Murphy nodded and swallowed hard, "Do you want to eat together?"

It was just a polite remark, but I didn't expect the other party to not hesitate for even half a second and said, "Okay."

Ava: "Mr. Xu, this opportunity is rare, please cherish it."

The sudden voice startled Murphy.

A single man and a single woman, staying in the same room.

This scene is full of the sense of crispy duck literature.

Ava: "Mr. Xu, this is the scene of crispy duck literature, and it is your crispy duck literature."

Murphy: ...It turns out you have a hidden nature of complaining.

Hayes was eating fries and watching the hotel TV. He didn't look like a celebrity at all. Seeing him so natural, Murphy also relaxed his guard and sat down. He picked up a chicken drumstick from the takeaway bucket after a long time. Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, he heard Hayes say, "It was just officially announced."

The other party was so nonchalant that Murphy almost bit his tongue.

"T-So fast."

Hayes smiled and turned his head to look at him: "Why, you still think you haven't been scolded enough?"

Although the official announcement is not a big deal, it is a reassurance for Carter's fans and a definite result for the spectators. Moreover, the official decision to make the announcement at this time also shows a bit of protection for the actor.

But Murphy didn't care, biting off a piece of chicken thigh meat: "I will still be scolded after the official announcement anyway, just get used to it."

Hayes was a little surprised: "I always see your fans online saying that you are a Buddhist idol, and I thought it was a deliberate persona."

Murphy smiled bitterly, "Is this considered a good persona?" He took a sip of the Coke on the side and said, "However, there is no point in being anxious in this situation. Netizens will only watch the excitement for a few days. Once a new hot topic emerges, this matter will soon be covered up."

"It's not that easy." Hayes quickly finished a bag of French fries and felt it was a bit dry, but his hands were greasy and he didn't want to touch anything else. He glanced at the drink in Murphy's hand, so he leaned over and put his head over, bit the straw on the Coke cup, took a big sip, and then stood up contentedly.

Murphy was shocked by this sudden action, and after a long while he managed to stammer out, "I drank this before."

Hayes nodded seriously.

"I know."

Then he showed an innocent smile.

"Didn't you drink from my cup the other day?"

After saying that, he simply took the cup from Murphy's hand, bit the straw, drank the rest of the Coke, looked calmly into Murphy's eyes, and then moved closer little by little.

It was almost touching Murphy’s nose.

"We're going to have a K!ssing scene in the future, are you scared now?"
