Reunion [entertainment circle]

In the evening, Say called and told Ji Ran that a reporter he knew wanted to ask him to do an exclusive interview and tell about the psychological process of coming out. Yunyun, Ji Ran was watching TV in Xia Mo's arms, and refused without hesitation: "No."

"Your Weibo post was not clear, and there are all kinds of voices on the Internet now," Say persuaded him in embarrassment: "It's better to accept an interview and clarify the matter, so as to save some image."

"I don't want to," Ji Ran said unmoved, "I've said it clearly enough, that's what it is, just pay him more money and let him write according to your wishes, why bother me to waste my tongue again."

Hanging up the phone, Ji Ran went online to have a look, and sure enough, his long Weibo post caused a huge wave again, and the entire network was almost reposted like crazy. After all, the popular idol came out in front of the public so generously. This is the first time in the entertainment industry, and it also involves multiple love affairs, so naturally there is no shortage of spectators.

When Xia Mo retweeted his Weibo, there were only four words "Forward Weibo" automatically generated by the system, which simply and clearly expressed his one-hearted position with him. Several of his friends Shen Yaoxiang, Cui Lele, etc. all liked it. V forwarded the comments one after another, and there were different opinions on the Weibo forum, and the discussion was very lively. The attitudes of passers-by were nothing more than three types, one was blessing, the other was watching the excitement and making fun of it, and the other was cursing.

Among them, the most people watch the excitement and make fun of it. Chinese people have always been like this. Although most people cannot accept homosexuality, as long as it does not happen to their relatives and friends, most of them will not meddle in their own business. Their business is just to add to the public after dinner. It's just a topic, and the ridicule is mostly harmless.And the number of people who gave blessings was beyond their expectations. Not only were various gay organizations and groups came out to support, but many passers-by seemed to be moved by the emotional experience of the two childhood sweethearts described in his long Weibo. They all said that they would not discriminate and should be given tolerance and blessings.As for the malicious abuse, in addition to the extremists who hate homosexual behavior, there are also many Hei who already hate Ji Ran who are fishing in troubled waters, so don't worry about it.

There was also an earthquake among Ji Ran's fans. Some cried and wanted to take off their meals. After crying, some expressed their support as always. There were also those who were very happy that their idol found true love and someone took care of them. Of course, this was the least. In fact, the situation is already much better. There are professional fans arranged by Say to guide the public opinion, and there is no big trouble.

Ji Ran looked at it and burst out laughing, Xia Mo, who was watching TV, lowered his head: "What are you laughing at?"

"Look at this," Ji Ran showed him a newly posted post: "There are still many people supporting us."

Xia Mo glanced at the title of the post and flipped through it.

"My childhood sweetheart, who is infatuated and doesn't change anything, is so cute that his face is bloody, okay?"

0L: There are also amnesia dog blood stalks, broken mirrors and round stalks, I can’t make more novels

1L: I've been secretly cute for a long time, I didn't expect it to be so soul-stirring, and it's so annoying

2L: ls+1, me too...

3L: The domineering president fell in love with me or something →_→

4L: I forgot that Ji Xiaoshou is also a son of a wealthy family, alright, they are a natural match

5L: Meng Ji Xiaoshou and Shen Yingdi were dismantled so hard TAT

……

……

The building has already built thousands of floors, and all kinds of jokes and yellow texts came out later, Xia Mo nodded wordlessly, reminding Ji Ran: "Stop watching such messy things in the future."

Ji Ran turned around, wrapped his hands around his waist, and buried his head in his lower abdomen: "Actually, I'm quite happy, at least not everyone is scolding us."

******

Early the next morning, Say called again, telling him that he had suddenly received a notice from the crew, saying that the filming would not be filmed for the time being due to planned adjustments.

"...No more filming?"

"A bullshit adjustment plan," Say said angrily, "I heard that it's the investor's intention to replace you."

"Oh……"

Xia Mo answered the phone, asked about the situation, hung up the phone and called the director directly. He recommended Ji Ran's role to this director from Hong Kong. They have a good personal relationship, and the other party is trying to save his face. , helped persuade the investor to give Ji Ran the role, but now that the filming has started, he suddenly said that he wanted to change the role. The director at the other end explained vaguely that the heroine is the investor and now they are pushing for the top role. Yes, she and Ji Ran used to have a lot of intimate scenes in the play, because Ji Ran's trouble now, one is afraid of affecting the heroine's image, and the other is that after the final movie is released, she will lose all her money. It took less than a third of the filming of the film to stop the loss in time, and to adjust the follow-up filming plan, it is very likely that another actor will be replaced.

After hanging up the phone, Xia Mo saw that Ji Ran was a little unhappy, and reached out to rub his hair: "Don't worry, I'll ask the director to help invite the boss of the investor to come out for an interview."

Ji Ran snorted, and fell back on the bed: "It's just right that you don't need to film, so you don't have to get up early."

No filming, no other announcements, and fear of being filmed when going out, Ji Ran was bored at home for two days. It was not until the third night that he went out to the agreed dinner with Xia Mo to meet the investor.

In fact, Ji Ran doesn't have to make this movie, but after all, he has spent more than a month on this role. He also likes this role very much, and before the filming started, fans and the public have high expectations. So lost.

The film investor is a joint venture company from Hong Kong. It is quite well-known in Hong Kong and the Mainland. The big boss behind it is engaged in real estate. The film company is only a side business and is managed by his nephew, who is sitting opposite them now. A man with a serious face and a decent airs, his surname is Liu Mingzheng, and Ji Ran has only met him twice before, once when he attended a banquet with the crew before the filming started, and once at the opening ceremony of the crew.

There were seven people at the table, Ji Ran, Xia Mo, Say, the director, Liu Zheng, and two who should be his assistants.

Say smiled and handed a circle of cigarettes over, but the boss Liu didn't pick it up. Say smiled a little awkwardly, and sat back unhappily. The director was entrusted by Xia Mo to speak first: "Boss Liu, we will all shoot this scene." It's almost halfway through, look at the sudden call to stop at this moment, isn't it a bit..."

Liu Zheng didn't answer, but asked Xia Mo: "Isn't Ji Ran from Boss Xia's company? Why did Boss Xia get involved in this matter? He asked Director Chen to invite me out for dinner?"

"Xiao Ran was recommended to Director Chen by me, and I have to be responsible to the end." Xia Mo replied calmly.

"May I ask, what is the relationship between Boss Xia and Ji Ran?"

Asking knowingly, Ji Ran simply answered him for Xia Mo: "Love."

The other party narrowed his eyes slightly, undisguisedly looking back and forth between the two of them, Ji Ran was a little upset, but for the time being, he endured it.

Say also took the opportunity to intervene, and analyzed to the boss Liu the various advantages that allowed Ji Ran to continue filming and his forecast for the future box office. Liu Zheng interrupted him impatiently: "Our company will have professionals to help me Analysis, we also have our own assessment and consideration.”

Say smiled stiffly, wanting to say something else, Xia Mo answered, "I wonder if your company has any intention of cooperating with Yaoxing?"

As soon as the words came out, Ji Ran and Say were a little surprised. Xia Mo had thrown a lot of bait. Yaoxing is one of the best film distribution companies in the mainland, and being able to cooperate with them is undoubtedly a share in the mainland film market. The fastest and most effective way to get a piece of the pie, especially for a film and television company like the other party, which has not entered the mainland market much, wants to gain a foothold quickly, and the conditions proposed by Xia Mo can be regarded as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.

But Liu Zheng's reaction was not what they expected. He didn't seem to be very interested, and said: "My company has a predetermined development direction, and I won't choose a partner rashly. I didn't have to come to today's dinner. It's just to give Director Chen this face, but in Director Chen's play, the male lead must be replaced."

Xia Mo frowned slightly: "What's the reason?"

"I think Boss Xia should know that I am a devout believer." When the other party said this, his eyes were full of inexplicable pride, and when he looked at Xia Mo and Ji Ran, there was some imperceptible contempt : "Homosexuality is an act that violates the morals of the Bible. Although I have no right to interfere with you, I am sorry, and I will not choose to cooperate with you."

This guy is a Christian, and Xia Mo has heard of the Bible's morality and God's principles, but he didn't expect to be so obsessed.

Some of his friends are religious, but they all get along very well with him. Even knowing that he has a homosexual, they didn’t discriminate against him, but blessed him one after another. I don’t know why this guy is so paranoid and full of superiority. .

"Crazy!" Ji Ran finally couldn't bear it anymore, stood up abruptly, and raised her voice: "Go and play while holding your Bible, what's wrong!"

Then he pulled Xia Mo up with one hand, and said angrily: "Xiao Mo, let's go! Stop talking nonsense with him!"

Xia Mo glanced at the arrogant man, shook his head and stood up.

On the way back, Say sat in the backseat and kept cursing, apparently also very angry. Ji Ran didn't speak, but turned her face to the side and stared at the receding urban neon night scene outside the window in a daze. Xia Mo stretched out a hand to shake it. She took his hand and comforted him softly: "Don't be angry because of that kind of person, it's not worth it."

"Not angry," Ji Ran curled her lips: "Forget it, if you don't shoot, then don't shoot, I just take a break."

"Damn it, those film appointments that came to me before are all hemmed and blocked when I call them. What kind of virtue?"

Hearing Say's complaint, Ji Ran was actually amused, and laughed at himself: "After all, I'm also the first legitimate celebrity in the mainland entertainment circle to come out voluntarily. No one knows what the consequences will be. Who dares to come out on the cusp of this crisis?" Take the risk of throwing money on me, in case there is no return."

"Yaoxing still has a few films to film this year. I'll ask someone to send you the information when I get back later. You can just choose what you want to act in."

After Xia Mo finished speaking, Ji Ran turned his head to look at him in surprise: "Is it true? Didn't you say before that you don't want to throw money into the bottomless pit?"

"That's just a joke. If you want to act, I have no reason not to help you."

"Forget it," Ji Ran shook his head: "You are not afraid of rebellion by other shareholders of your company, I will rest for a while and wait for the turmoil to pass."

******

Although he said he didn't care, Ji Ran was obviously a little unhappy, and it was annoying to be bored at home all day long, so when Xia Mo proposed to accompany him to visit his parents and grandfather in Spain one day, Ji Ran readily agreed, When he regained his energy, he urged Xia Mo to arrange an itinerary and book a flight ticket, wishing he could leave on the same day.

He hasn't been home for seven years. Although he only met his parents in Beijing not long ago, he also wants to go back to see his grandfather. After telling Xu Cheng his plan, the other party was silent for a while, and finally said that he would delay the family. Taking her back together, Ji Ran excitedly notified her parents, and then began to pack her luggage.

Xia Mo was relieved to see that Ji Ran's mood improved a lot, but at the same time he was a little nervous. He had met Ji Ran's parents before, but the legendary grandfather whom he had no memory of could be so ruthless. A person who has made up his mind to sever ties with his own son for 20 years is probably very difficult to deal with. Although Ji Ran is trying to persuade him to relax, his grandfather is getting older now, and his temper has softened a lot, so he won't make things difficult for him.

The day before departure, Xia Mo still dragged Ji Ran out to the shopping mall to buy a gift for his grandfather. In fact, he didn’t know what to buy. Ran reminded him: "My grandfather usually likes to practice Tai Chi, you can buy a set of exercise clothes for him."

When Xia Mo bought something and walked out of the store, Ji Ran was staring at the opposite billboard in a daze, Xia Mo patted him and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Ji Ran stretched out her finger: "Special offer at the cinema, buy couple tickets and get free food."

"...Do you still want to take advantage of this?"

"I want to buy couple tickets with you." Ji Ran said honestly.

Xia Mo smiled, walked in with his arms around his shoulders.

When buying tickets, the little girl who sold the tickets thought she had heard them wrong when she heard that they wanted to buy couple tickets. She looked at them suspiciously, and after a long time hesitated to remind them: "Couple tickets... are only sold to couples..."

"Can't two men be lovers?" Ji Ran asked her back.

The little girl blushed a little: "No...just..."

"Don't believe it?" Ji Ran took off his sunglasses, blinked at the little girl, and asked with a smile, "Do you know me?"

The little girl was stunned: "...Ji Ran?"

Ji Ran raised his eyebrows at the helpless Xia Mo beside him: "I'm really popular."

Then he turned to the little girl again: "Do you believe me now?"

The little girl took a look at Xia Mo, and nodded quickly. As long as Ji Xiaotian came out of the closet, almost everyone who can surf the Internet has watched it. Of course, she also knows it. I'm sorry to say it again. After the ticket is issued, I hand it to Ji Ran. hand.

Ji Ran accepted it with a smile, thanked him and turned to leave. The little girl called him again, picked up her notebook hesitantly, and asked him, "Can you sign it?"

Ji Ran took it generously, signed her name and handed it to her. The little girl also smiled, and said to him and Xia Mo: "Come on, I support you."

Ji Ran was happy: "Thank you." He turned around and took Xia Mo's hand and walked into the screening room graciously.
