Chapter 52

Originally, when Pei Xiuran called to stop, he was waiting for Chen Kong, whose name was called, but he had not heard the familiar shout for a long time. He couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He walked slowly to his seat by the sidelines of the set.

Although the costumes on his body were not too thick, they were still in ancient wide robe and big sleeves. The flexible and thick fabric wrapped him in airtight, making him look quite stuffy under the current weather conditions.

Chenkong put the iced soda bottle on his face, and the cold and moist metal bottle body lowered the hot temperature on his cheeks a lot.

The noisy and chaotic sound on the set twisted into a torrent, wrapping the entire venue under the airflow, like some kind of viscous gum wrapping everyone around it.

Chen Kong closed his eyes and breathed slowly.

In fact, the working hours under Pei Xiuran did not make him feel too troubled. After all, in the past world, he had undergone more rigorous devil training, and the workload of filming on the set was simply not difficult for him. What was more difficult for him was that the time after joining the group was too unfree. He didn't have many shots, and he thought he could leave the crew soon, but he didn't expect that Pei Xiuran would extend his shooting time more than once and forever. He also used various courses to occupy all his rest time, and the remaining scraps of time was watched by the agent and assistant.

Being a public figure is really hard.

Especially for those who are used to acting in the shadows, this kind of life under the high-bright spotlight is really unbearable.

However, in order to maintain the temporary identity, he had to accept it without giving any substantial evidence to Han Li, who had already become suspicious.

The main task this time is like the shaking sword of Damocles hanging on his head. I don’t know when it will fall. Especially now, it has basically deviated from the main plot. The original time of occurrence is no longer reference. He doesn’t know when Han Li is going to take action, and there is no possibility of stopping it. The plan to approach Han Li by "being kept" has now basically declared a miscarriage - after all, he is trapped in the crew every day, so there is really no condition to approach Han Li.

In addition... I don't know if it was the illusion of Shen Kong, he always felt that Han Li seemed to be hiding from him for a while?

There has been no news for so many days, but the resources and treatments that should be provided are still sent to the crew one after another. Chen Kong began to wonder if the maintenance in this world represents a different meaning - perhaps this is actually another statement of unconditional funding?

In any case, leaving the drama group is his first priority.

It doesn't matter whether he hides his weakness or not. What's important is that he must get rid of the current state of strict control. After all, the production cycle of this drama is very long, especially under Pei Xiuran's neurotic obsessive-compulsive disorder, it may take longer to go from post-record to official broadcasting. If the mission of Shenkong went smoothly, he would probably have left at that time.

Chen Kong opened his eyes, pulled the pull ring of the soda bottle, and the metal outer wall wet his palms.

He raised his neck and took a few sips. The liquid inside was still so cold and harsh, and it cut into his stomach along his throat, temporarily relieving the sluggish heat in the set.

At this moment, a harsh sound came from beside him, passing through the noisy background sound, as if deliberately drilling into his ears.

"Isn't it? Because he reshoots so many times by himself, he is at the level of filming online dramas. Even if he goes through the back door and enters the crew, he will not meet the director's requirements, and he is too self-aware."

The protagonist in their words paused and looked in the direction where the sound came.

I saw three or five supporting actors with little status gathered not far away and chatting. Their eyes seemed to be staring at the seat of Chen Kong, with a faint contempt in their expression. Chen Kong recognized several of them. Although they were not very famous, they were much better than Meng Mingxuan who had almost no such person before joining the crew. Many of them were reduced to their own identities and played small supporting actors who appeared in the group with few appearances. After all, "Guiyuan Tower" is very popular, and even if they play a small role, they can get some traffic bonuses.

Shenkong is quite understandable.

After all, he was given a coveted role by an unknown online drama actor, and the other party was probably obtained through inequality methods. He was repeatedly angrily during filming, which slowed down the progress of the entire crew. It was impossible for him to be without resentment. Chen Kong even had a deep sense of the same. If he knew that there were so many troubles after joining the crew, he would probably not even attend the audition. After all, the opportunity to meet can be created, but the time is gone, he will not be able to come back.

His eyes swept across those people, and then he withdrew his gaze without any concern.

The actors who gathered together were provocative and deliberately let Chen Kong hear his conversation, but he didn't expect that he had such an attitude, as if his fist hit the cotton. His originally full of anger had nowhere to vent his anger for a moment, and it was particularly uncomfortable to get stuck in his throat. One of them raised his voice and sarcastically said:

"But no one cares about this. After all, you can have everything you need as long as you act coquettishly with the financial owner..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by another familiar voice, and his pretended tone was ashamed tone:

"What are you saying? Don't spread these unfounded words casually, otherwise what if someone hears them?"

Chen Kong turned his face slightly, and saw Qi Yi walking from behind him, with a formatted smile on his handsome face:

"Mingxuan, don't take what they say to heart, they are also unintentional."

He dug out the past of the original owner and Qi Yi from the information given by the system. It turned out that Meng Mingxuan and Qi Yi had signed a contract with the same company. The two were a little quarrel at that time. Qi Yi was jealous of Meng Mingxuan's appearance, and Meng Mingxuan could not stand Qi Yi's hypocrisy. The gap became deeper and deeper as time went by. Later, Qi Yi snatched the resources that originally belonged to Meng Mingxuan and gained some traffic. He found the right opportunity to leave the small company. Meng Mingxuan was not a good person. He found an opportunity to cheat Qi Yi hard, and the two of them had formed a bond.

There are also very obvious signs of being incited in the past few days.

But Chen Kong not only doesn't care about other people's comments, but also doesn't bother paying attention to the past of the original owner and others.

He nodded coldly at Qi Yi and withdrew his gaze.

This almost indifferent attitude made Qi Yi's forehead jump involuntarily, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

His disgust towards Meng Mingxuan actually has a deep connection. It is mixed with the jealousy when he first entered the circle and the resentment of being framed later, and eventually deposited into complex and dark mud. Even if he gradually gained exposure and popularity in the later period, he still missed this same period. In fact, Meng Mingxuan became more and more confused in the later period and had his work, so when he saw Meng Mingxuan when he auditioned, he did not keep his mind tight, but he did not expect that he could win the casting of Shen Guiyuan in one fell swoop and directly suppress him in the play.

He couldn't swallow this, so he used all his connections to check it out.

Unexpectedly, Meng Mingxuan actually climbed up to Mr. Han, and those continuous resources and announcements made Qi Yi very jealous.

However, it is said that Mr. Han is not concerned about Meng Mingxuan, and he is just a plaything.

Looking at Meng Mingxuan and a popular star's eyes, Qi Yi couldn't help but have a bold idea, and the expression in his eyes was even more disdainful.

The bigger the smile on his face, he shouted, pinching the Taiwanese computer and stood up, and was about to walk towards Chen Kong, who was walking towards the director, and said:

"By the way, I wonder if you have heard of it. Ye Jinghuan will join the group in a few days."

Chen Kong paused, turned his head to look at him: "Hmm?"

Seeing that the other party finally looked at him, a hint of pride flashed in Qi Yi's eyes and added: "The actor who played the second male lead had an accident and needed to recast the role. Director Pei chose Ye Jinghuan. The seniors had good acting skills and character. We will definitely learn a lot from him."

I thought my words could stimulate the other party, but I didn't expect that Chen Kong didn't even move his eyebrows, and said "oh" lightly, then turned around and left.

——It’s just a substitute, what awesome?

Qi Yi's heart suddenly became angry. He subconsciously reached out and pulled at the wide-sleeved robe that Chen Kong was wearing. However, before his fingers touched the corner of the other party's clothes, Chen Kong suddenly turned sideways as if there were eyes behind his head, which made Qi Yi swoosh.

Qi Yi couldn't help but feel angry. Before he could say something, the man in front of him looked coldly and glanced backwards. The amber eyes were faintly and almost transparent under the lights on the set. It was just a moment of staring at Qi Yi, which made Qi Yi feel chill all over and fixed in place.

Chen Kong closed his robe sleeves with his fingers, and his slender fingertips looked more whiter and more jade-like against the backdrop of the black fabric. He symbolically patted the dust on his clothes and suddenly smiled:

"It's really a bit dirty, thank you."

After saying that, he lowered his hand lightly and turned around and walked towards the set.

The next filming was being prepared in full swing. The relevant props, cameramen and makeup artists were running in a hurry on the scene, but Qi Yi stood there as if he was hit by a curse. The set was as hot as the midsummer, but he seemed to fall into an ice cave, and the moment he had just passed through his mind.

The inhuman pupils swept over indifferently and coldly, staring at him from a high point, as if he was just a lifeless object.

That kind of physiological fear from the heart made Qi Yi’s scalp numb and he felt a cold sweat.

Chen Kong continued to start the next shooting just like nothing happened.

During the next shooting time, Pei Xiuran was unexpectedly easy to talk. There were almost all of them. The entire crew seemed to be full of energy and pursued the victory. The progress was rapid. Qi Yi seemed to be out of control, and his condition was so bad that he was dragged his shot to the next day by Pei Xiuran.

It was soon time to finish work, Chen Kong walked off the set, took the handkerchief handed by his assistant and wiped his face, and then walked towards the locker room.

The background sound was filled with the sound of rolling and impact of instruments and the bustling conversations of the staff.

Chen Kong raised his head, glanced inadvertently into the distance, and then freezes the shadows cast by beams and pillars on the edge of the set.

He couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

I saw a man with straight figure standing in the darkness, wearing a pitch-black suit almost blending with the darkness, his facial features were covered by shadows, and only a little scarlet cigarette butt appeared and shone lightly and lightly. In the place illuminated by the light, the man's slender and pale knuckles were slightly kicked back, and he was leaning on a long cane loosely under his palm.

...Han Li?

How could he come here?

And...how long has he been watching there?

Countless questions surged in Chen Kong's heart, but the next second, his eyes stopped on the cane that Han Li was leaning on.

The dark staff was shining with a faint light in the light, and the light wood grain wrapped around the straight staff like a snake, and the tip of the staff was flashing with a little metal reflection.
