Chapter 191 I Can’t Find My Heroine

Chapter 191 I Can’t Find My Heroine
In less than ten minutes, almost everyone who needed to take photos and be interviewed had arrived.

Lu Wenyuan, who came over first, looked at Bai Youlou sitting in his seat and his eyelids couldn't help but twitch twice.

But after hesitating for a few seconds, he finally greeted Bai Youlou first, "Director Bai~"

"Brother Wenyuan is here, please sit down."

Flattered!

Wow, this call of “Brother Wenyuan” made Lu Wenyuan feel so happy that he thought Bai Youlou’s words were so nice today.

However, Lu Wenyuan said that he wanted to sit, but why were there two name tags on his seat? This is different from others~
Fortunately, the artists in the second row were obviously eager to watch the fun and immediately started to move away.

This kind of seating arrangement for artists is already quite spacious, so it is easy to make room for them.

They were also "very bad" and deliberately left the space where Liu Manli's name tag was supposed to be left empty to make it particularly conspicuous.

I was afraid that when the camera turned around to shoot, the audience would not know what was going on.

Nanako finally found an organization, but unfortunately she sat in the third row and couldn't join in the fun with the "green tea sisters" in the second row.

After Lu Wenyuan sat down, he quickly learned what had happened from the chattering "whispers" around him.

By now, the people in the front rows all knew what was going on, and were waiting to watch the fun.

His evaluation was: Stupid!

That Yan Tingtian is really bold. How famous are you? Are you more famous than me, Lu? I don't even dare to mess with Bai Youlou.
However, everyone here is an insider, and except for a few who may not be very smart, everyone knows what the guy who changed the seat wants to do.

Isn't it just that he wants to promote himself and issue a press release to make others think that he is a big shot?

There is actually no big problem with doing this, as long as he is not afraid of offending others or being scolded.

But the problem is, before you do this, you have to make sure you can afford to offend him, right?

Just look, when Director Wang Guangfa and Yan Tingtian came over together, the artists in the front rows who were originally chatting animatedly all remained silent and saluted in tacit understanding.

Before Wang Guangfa could react to what was happening, Qiu Yanran pulled him to sit next to her, "Director Wang, your seat is here."

"Okay~"

Wang Guangfa was also confused, but when he sat down, he looked at the name tag on the seat next to him and was stunned.

Liu Manli?!

At this moment, many people are curious about Yan Tingtian's mental state.

This guy came over and took the lead. When he saw his name appear on the far left of the first row, he almost couldn't hold back his expression and showed a hint of joy.

Then he quickly put away that expression.

Pretending to know nothing, he sat down.

But after he sat down, he realized that the person sitting next to him was not Wang Guangfa as he had imagined.
When I turned around, I found Wang Guangfa and Qiu Yanran sitting in the back.

broken!

His heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Director Wang, is your seat in the front?"

Before Wang Guangfa could reply, Qiu Yanran said with a smile, "Director Wang is sitting here. His name is on the seat."

Scalp numbness.

Yan Tingtian suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

There were three people from a film crew, the female lead and the director sat at the back, and he, the male lead, sat at the front?

Is that true?
Oh yeah, the name of the location.

Only then did Yan Tingtian realize that the seat next to his was empty.

There is no name tag at all.

Seeing this, he was actually a little happy. Isn't this just right? Let Wang Guangfa move to the front.
Director Wang: Damn it!
You are blind! It's fine if you just do something tricky yourself, but you want to drag him down with you?

Didn’t this bastard notice that Bai Youlou was staring at him hungrily?
In fact, after Yan Tingtian sat down, Bai Youlou held his chin and looked at this guy.

The more I look at it, the more familiar it looks.
"Where have I seen him before? His name and appearance do seem familiar, but it seems we have never met before."

Otherwise, it still takes "off-field forces" to remind us~
Immediately, two "little green tea" girls couldn't wait to remind Bai Youlou in a low voice, "Director Bai, you forgot~The Golden Horse Award winner also imitated your acceptance speech at the Cannes Film Festival."

This reminder woke the dreamer up!

Oh, oh, oh! It turns out to be this flop!

"I was wondering why this guy looked so unlucky. It seems like we have a connection!" Bai Youlou was amused. It's you again!
The girl couldn't accept this. It was fine to watch the fun, but it was not good to make enemies for no reason.

Bai Youlou can ignore Yan Tingtian. They can just keep their distance from him. There is no benefit in offending him.

At this moment, Yan Tingtian finally discovered Bai Youlou who was "hiding" in the second row.

His performance was hilarious!
He was stunned for a moment, a look of disbelief on his face, then he quickly forced a smile and subconsciously tried to get up again, but halfway through he remembered something and didn't get up completely.
This scene was seen by many people, and they thought that this guy should be bolder and go against Bai Youlou, saying that he just didn't like Bai Youlou and wanted to step on him, and even step on Liu Manli "by the way", then everyone would still respect him as a man!

Now this kind of hesitation and hesitancy makes people look down on you.

Yan Tingtian was very emotional at this moment.

He was indeed very courageous when he won the Golden Horse Awards. Not only did he win the Best Actor award by stepping over Bai Youlou, but he also put on an "imitation show" on the stage.

The behavior of riding on the popularity and pulling down others is quite obvious, and the purpose is actually similar to this time.

Of course, the fact that Bai Youlou did not go to the scene that time also gave him more courage.

If the real boss really went there, Yan Tingtian might not dare to "go all the way".

The person who is most involved in this level of operations in the entertainment industry is Bai Youlou himself.

Playing a big sword in front of Guan Gong?

Too clownish.

As a result, Bai Youlou himself did not go, but Long Ziqiang and Lao Zhou did not let him go either. They took his place on the spot and made some weird remarks to him.

As a result, no one thought it was so great that he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor over Bai Youlou, and instead he was ridiculed by everyone.

It was a very loss-making transaction.

I have offended Bai Youlou but haven't gained much benefit from it.

Fortunately, he has the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and that is why he is able to act in a movie with Qiu Yanran.

As a result, he wanted to play it again this time. He was also very bold and felt that he could afford to offend Qiu Yanran. Besides, the circle he mixed in in the mainland film and television industry had nothing to do with Huaxing.

Isn't it normal for different circles to step on each other?

However, this time, Bai Youlou, who was not supposed to appear, showed up at the scene.

And he sat behind him.

Yan Tingtian didn't have the slightest idea that he could use this press release to suppress Bai Youlou.

This is crazy.

The media predicted that today, "The Dreamers" will break 2 billion, after 47 days in theaters.

The popularity of the college entrance examination did attract many students to the cinema, and this gimmick made the box office performance of "The Dreamers" rise against the wind.

Although it may not be another box office hit, it is basically certain to break 2 billion.

Some media and marketing accounts have already helped shout out the slogan in advance: the sixth movie in mainland China to break the 2 billion box office mark!
This level of box office revenue would have already allowed Bai Youlou to soar to fame, but he also has various awards to his name. He has achieved success in both art and business.

Bai Youlou is no longer the same person as when he only had one album, "Whiplash".

Can't afford it!
A bold word "danger" seemed to appear on Yan Tingtian's forehead.

Especially, Bai Youlou was looking at him with a half-smile, and that expression made him feel like he was about to be beaten.

I wanted to give in, but there were too many people here.

If you admit you're a coward, you can improve your relationship with Bai Youlou. There are a lot of people outside. I'll give you
"Your name is Yan Tingtian?"

"Hey, Director Zhang, it's me"

"The boy is quite good."

"Uh, Director Zhang, you're too kind."

Although Yan Tingtian is a bit of a green tea girl, he is not a fool.

The tone of the big director next door was ambiguous and weird, the people around him looked gloating, and the worst thing was, Bai Youlou was actually sitting in the second row?
This is so unreasonable!
In addition, there is also the vacant seat of Liu Manli in the second row.
At this moment, Yan Tingtian, who was sitting in the first row and even "monopolizing" two seats, felt his blood run cold.

Liu Manli just didn't show up, so Bai Youlou sat in the back and had an awkward chat with Lu Wenyuan.

Yan Tingtian wanted to talk to Director Zhang, who had just greeted him, but the other person either laughed it off or pretended not to hear him.

Even when he looked back at Director Wang from his crew with a pleading look, the other party just gave him a look that said "May you be lucky".

Obviously he doesn't want to get involved in this mess at all.

Of course, at this moment, he actually had another choice.

That is to take the initiative to act like a "clown" in front of so many people.

Liu Manli's name tag was just stuck there, so he went over and tore it off and stuck it in the front, then rolled to the back, which was a manageable solution.

But he hesitated for a long time and finally couldn't bear to move the position under his butt.

First row!

Moreover, if the company behind him can invest enough resources in press releases, it can create a lot of hype.
As the so-called, seek wealth and risk!
Bai Youlou was involved in such a huge scandal, but he was able to turn the situation around. There’s no reason why he can’t do the same when faced with “this little” thing!
As I thought about it, I sat there more and more steadily, and even wanted to move to the middle. After all, it was too strange to leave an empty seat in the middle, and it would be better if it was a little bit at the edge.

As a result, at this moment, Director Zhang's wife suddenly put the bag she brought on that spot.

The meaning is clear: Don't come over here.

Director Zhang's wife: Do you think you only offended Bai Youlou? Auntie, I watched Liu Manli grow up. Young man, before you do something bad, you should ask more questions.

Until now, this kid feels that offending Bai Youlou is the biggest risk for him.

But in fact, Liu Manli, who has been staying in the lounge until now, is the one who really wants to "kill him".

Bai Youlou's circle is relatively small. He is just a big shot, awesome and capable, and he has a very sharp tongue and dares to make trouble for others in public.

The entertainment industry is glamorous and everyone is decent, but Bai Youlou has the ability to make you lose your dignity.

The consequences at most are being scolded or ridiculed, and your image will be ruined.

But if you offend Liu Manli, you will really be in trouble. Lin Juntao didn't dare to speak loudly to Liu Manli, and he was polite every time they met.

If Bai Youlou hadn't risen so quickly, he would have really become a gigolo.

"Sister, are we really not going over there?"

"Let Director Bai handle it. Tell the people on Weibo that this matter will be on the hot search list tonight."

At this time, Liu Manli was doing her manicure in the backstage lounge.

Since you have nothing to do, you might as well get a manicure.

In just a few words, the intention to punish Yan Tingtian was fully expressed. The assistant lady agreed and did nothing. Sure enough, there was more to come.

"Please help me find out what acting offers this kid has recently. It seems that he mainly hangs out with directors from Hong Kong, right? Go say hello to him, too."

"Okay, but we're not very familiar with the Hong Kong community."

"Hey, please move our dear Director Bai out."

Liu Manli looked like she was saying "I have a man protecting me behind me", which made her assistant speechless. So, did she want Director Bai to scold people?

However, I feel that it is possible to have Bai Youlou's movie released at the same time as the other party's movie. But that seems a bit too trifling.

Such a huge investment in a movie is not meant to be used for show.

Looking at the "wooden-headed" assistant, Liu Manli had to explain it more clearly, "Although our Director Bai's network of contacts is not wide, he knows some 'very important' people, such as the leaders of the optoelectronics department. Isn't that scary?"

assistant:? ? ?
Huh? That's not it.
Liu Manli: Yes, they are my parents. He has a very good relationship with my parents, so how can they not be considered as his connections?
If you have to count more, there are all kinds of aunts and uncles. Oh yes, the retired old man and woman dancing in the small square are not just her parents.

Otherwise, Liu Manli would not have suspected that Bai Youlou was just trying to build relationships.

In short, the person who wants to deal with Yan Tingtian is Bai Youlou.

She, Liu Manli, is just a pitiful "little woman" behind Bai Youlou.

Assistant: Your play is getting more and more fancy.

She doesn't understand, but she respects any tricks her boss comes up with.
-
"It's started, it's started. Let me take a look. Wow! Sister Yanran is dressed so beautifully today! She's like a flower fairy."

"I'm really envious of the looks in that row, they must all be the top stars in the industry! Hey? What is Bai Youlou talking about with Lu Wenyuan? The two of them are so close to each other and whispering? I'm really going to ship you two as a couple!"

"Why is there an empty seat in the first row? Is there no one next to Yan Tingtian?"

"Wow, that's interesting! Yan Tingtian is sitting in the first row, and Bai Youlou is sitting in the second row?"

"No, isn't Yan Tingtian a high-ranking figure? Why should our Xiao Lu sit behind him?"

"He's the Golden Horse Award winner, but your Lu Wenyuan is a jerk."

"."

It’s started! It’s started!

Weibo is the ancestor of playing with popularity and traffic. Bai Youlou just "plotted loudly", it would be strange if Weibo didn't know about this.

Moreover, Liu Manli didn't show up at all, and people had already noticed something was wrong.

But their choice is to let the situation develop, or even push it further.

Look, tonight’s Weibo Movie Night has already created such a huge buzz right from the start.

Weibo itself is well aware that no one cares about their crappy awards, and the audience watching the live broadcast are also here for the fame and fortune.

The fans of the top stars are also concerned about whether their stars are handsome or beautiful today.

So the pace actually started with Lu Wenyuan.

As the current "top star", his number of fans and attention is terrifying. With a large group, there are naturally many people who want to cause trouble.

Just look, when someone who was not so convincing appeared in the first row, someone immediately said that he was not worthy, saying that the other party’s status was not as good as Lu Wenyuan and so on.

Then Lu Wenyuan’s haters will naturally come on stage and argue with the fans. No matter who is sitting there today, they, the haters must help save the situation.

Yan Tingtian? I don’t know him. I just searched on Baidu.

Baidu released a Golden Horse Award for Best Actor and immediately used it to mock Lu Wenyuan’s fans.

But~
When the camera on the scene turned to Bai Youlou and the empty seat of Liu Manli, the group of people who have been in the fan circle for many years immediately tasted the taste.

"Liu Manli and Bai Youlou are sitting in the second row? Is this true? Isn't there an empty seat in the first row? Has Weibo gone crazy?"

"Is Yan Tingtian a relative of a Weibo executive? Or is he some female executive's little puppy? Why are you praising him like this?"

"A small fire depends on support, a big fire depends on fate, if you force it, it will turn into ashes."

"That's not right. Why does the camera keep focusing on that empty seat? And is there an extra person in the second row?"

At this time, someone who seemed to be a fan of Bai Youlou suddenly jumped out and pointed out the truth: "Fuck, Brother Lou is definitely up to something. I don't know what he is going to do today."

Here comes the job!

When the movie night was halfway through, Bai Youlou's name was called out for some award, but the award wasn't very important.

The audience watching the live broadcast and the artists on the scene are all looking forward to what he will say!

Lu Wenyuan took the lead and laughed. In the past, when he was "bullied" by Bai Youlou, he always felt very powerless.

Now when I see others being bullied by Bai Youlou, I actually feel a different kind of satisfaction!
I don’t know why, but I felt very fortunate in my heart: Fortunately, my buddy did not continue to go against him.

Of course, repairing the relationship is one thing, but An Luning still has to be fought for.

After Bai Youlou came on stage, the Weibo executive who was sitting in the center of the audience personally presented him with the award.

After receiving the trophy, the host asked a question on behalf of the executive, "Director Bai, you have a strong affinity with Weibo. Here are the statistics. You are one of the people with the most hot searches on Weibo. What kind of relationship do you think you have with Weibo?"

The standard answer here is of course something like "they complement each other" or "thank you for your support".

But Bai Youlou thought about it and said directly: "I am a member."

"what?"

"688 a year as a VVIP, isn't this a strong enough relationship?"

The answer was unexpected, but the executive seemed pleased.

Bai Youlou: It’s too early for you to be happy.

"But there is one thing I don't think is right. Don't you have much experience in organizing this kind of activities?"

Everyone in the audience: Here they come! Brother Lou! Awesome!
It’s too powerful. It turns out that you still have to get close to the face and use the full power!
Of course, the executive knew what Bai Youlou wanted to say. Coincidentally, they also wanted to hype it up on Weibo to increase traffic.

So, please start your performance!
"Then please correct me, Director Bai."

"Although I haven't attended many award ceremonies, there is one thing in common. Normally, people from the same crew will sit together. But your arrangement this time was not very good. I couldn't even find my leading actress."

"The heroine, Miss Liu Manli?"

"Yeah, if you lose it, do you have to compensate me?"

"I will definitely give Director Bai an explanation!"

This answer is very powerful!

The two looked at each other, as if a tacit understanding was born out of thin air.

I've confirmed through eye contact that they are all people who want to cause trouble!
Explain? What kind of explanation?
Of course, the solution is to "slaughter" an unlucky guy as a "sacrifice to heaven" so that everyone can share the traffic.

Liu Manli in the backstage was so happy that she was beaming with joy. She knew it!
Bai Youlou's words, "I can't find my heroine," really made her feel sad.

Apart from anything else, regardless of whether he is fickle or dissolute, Bai Youlou does give people a sense of security.

Liu Manli suddenly understood why Lao Zhou and his group, including Zhen Dongjun and others, called him "Brother Lou".

There was no sense of incongruity in his shouting, and he didn't seem to feel weird or uncomfortable at all because of Bai Youlou's age.

Because if something happens, he will definitely step forward.

Regardless of whether fighting can win or not, just fight first.

Just like the conflict with Feng Dazai, he always stood at the forefront.

The dissolute and chivalrous spirit.

She loves it!
