Logical Aesthetics Chapter 80

Chapter 80

<<"It was no exaggeration to say that Zhong Yi gave him his "Break"">>

    In the courtyard building, Zhang Xingzhi had just stepped into the Secretary's office, and the phone in his pocket started buzzing like crazy.

    Zhang Xingzhi knew it without seeing it. The fact that he was going to meet the Secretary had been leaked probably. The students from his class were texting in the group to ask about the situation.

    After gaining the Secretary's attention, Zhang Xingzhi sat down and took out his mobile phone to put his phone on mute but what he had not expected was that a red bubble was floating beside the message box set to the top.

    -"Did I drink too much wrong that night? It seemed that Teacher Zhang had said that he was would be the one to text me first"

    -"Why do I still have to take the initiative every time"

    The Secretary had a cup of chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea in his hand, and he looked at the person who took out his phone in front of him and was looking at it carefully.

    The Secretary lifted the glasses on his face and asked, "Seems like this isn’t the right time for me to find you? I feel like Teacher Zhang is a little busy?"

   Zhang Xingzhi while replying to Zhong Yi's message answered frankly: "Fortunately, I’m not too busy."

    The Secretary choked: "............"

    The most annoying thing was that he didn’t understand his underlying meaning. He just seemed to be answering the questions and telling him the truth basically.

    -" Sorry, I have been busy with school recently, "

    Zhong Yi smirked when he looked at the reply from the other person. He figured it out that although this person was not deceiving him, he was just downplaying everything.

    Zhong Yi did not break through him.

    -"Busy, let me apologize"

    -"I just remembered and texted you to ask why you haven’t dragged me into the group for so long?"

    Zhang Xingzhi hesitated for a moment, and then heard the Secretary speak.

    "Then let's make the long story short, it won't take up much of Teacher Zhang's time."

    Zhang Xingzhi was still wondering about what was appropriate to reply, while he said, "Okay."

    The Secretary felt awkward and coughed: "Cough ... well, Mr. Zhang so was it the dean who personally scouted you to our school. We have a policy to only recruit staff who have a PhD degree. Is Mr. Zhang aware of that?"

    Zhang Xingzhi: "I know."

    He only had a bachelor’s degree, and it was reasonable that he couldn't get in. His case was considered to be an exceptional admission to get in through the back door.

    "But it didn't matter. After all, the last teacher Hu had temporarily resigned to go abroad. There was an urgent requirement where no one could find a replacement in such a short time. Dean Jiang knew about Teacher Zhang's skills and he found him then and we can fill in the blanks, and we have no issues so far. I think our colleagues seem to like Teacher Zhang now. "

    "Ok."

    Zhang Xingzhi listened to the Secretary's words one by one, and his mind occupied with holding his phone and keeping it under the table. The posture and his expression were exactly the same as when he was in Zhong Yi class's and secretly playing with his phone.

    Secretary: "Well then Mr. Zhang do you know why I came to see you today?"

    Zhang Xingzhi: "Well, I know."

    It's just that he didn't think that he had enough qualifications and he got in through the back door to get a job. Now that he finally got an award. How could he not acknowledge that he wasn’t talented?

    Secretary:"…………"

   Comparing to the man who entered his office, he had talked so much whereas the other person was somewhat quiet.

    He had never met this teacher Zhang, who was scouted by Dean Jiang, he couldn’t figure out whether he was too candid or too clever to play dumb before him. How can he take him seriously when he didn't feel guilty and looked at him with eyes full of sincerity?

    Although Zhang Xingzhi was looking at the Secretary, but he was actually replying to Zhong Yi and he replied blindly without thinking much.

    -"Secretary had something to do with me, it’s about to be over"

    Zhong Yi sneered immediately and couldn’t believe how he could still be so sloppy and played innocent.

    Had it not been for Yang Youan who had tipped him off, he would certainly not have thought too much about.

    It was bitter for Liang Sili, who was sitting in the front row, however he did not look at Zhong Yi’s expressions but could not resist but listen.

    He felt uncomfortable: "Can you calm down a little bit? Are you that happy to flirt with Mr. Zhang?"

    "Was it this week, last week, or the week before?" Zhong Yi felt too lazy to talk to this person, "You think and tell me from when you want to start listening, just pick a good day and tell me, I promise I will read out every word to you."

    Liang Sili: "........."

    OK, okay, you guys are great.

    Zhong Yi held his phone and thought about it again although Yang Youan didn't give him the specific details but with his knowledge of the group of children in 19 photography he thought he could figure out the ins and outs of the whole situation. He used to think that Zhang Xingzhi’ s temperament was probably not too big. If he wanted to deal with this kind of thing, he would have to take the initiative to make him talk about it. This person estimated that he could do nothing with him at all.

    As a result, Zhong Yi typed out half of a sentence, and a message was about to be sent out from his phone.

    He didn't know if he had interacted with Zhou Rui recently but Sina had somehow recommended Zhou Rui's latest tweet as a special notification to him.

    After a while, Zhong Yi, went back to Zhang Xingzhi chat box, first of all deleted the words he had typed in the chat box and changed his reply and sent out the text.

    -"Okay, don't be so polite when you need me, let’s just talk and sleep."

    -"Otherwise, I am going to have a lot of trouble with you (wink.jpg)"

    After he sent the message, Zhong Yi opened Zhou Rui's chat box, and texted.

    -"Can I meet you?"

    Zhou Rui was shocked for a moment.

    -"? Do you want to sleep with me??"

    -"Didn’t you say on Weibo that you wanted to drink alcohol, but couldn't find the right person to talk about emotional issues, I will let you consult"

    -"Tomorrow night?"

    Zhou Rui was shocked.

    Before he changed his mind, he would have surely accepted the pie falling from the sky, but he still had a little dark past while drinking with Zhong Yi. Very cautiously, he subconsciously wanted to ask Zhang Xingzhi.

    But when he thought about where his buddy was now, he quickly realized the purpose and he replied.

    -"For Lao Zhang?"

    -"Yeah. 1977?"

    Zhou Rui was going to say whether he could change the venue. He would be considered shameless if he went to 1977 again when he saw that another bubble appeared on the opposite side.

    -"I’ll pay for you"

    Zhou Rui fell for it in a second and even without changing the sentence pattern he replied.

    -"Holy shit!! I’ll come. Thank you, boss, !!!"

    Zhong Yi's idea was very simple. Since Zhang Xingzhi felt that this was a trivial matter and didn't want to worry him, then he would simply play along, but only after he got to the bottom of the truth.

    Zhong Yi’s obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) compelled him to know everything he couldn’t fall asleep without finding out.

    Plus, what could Zhou Rui ask about? Zhong Yi knew with his eyes closed eyes that his suggestions were prepared in advance, only to meet tomorrow night.

    Liang Sili in the front row was still talking about the circle.

    "Those Western Film people; I have made the money back." He shook his head. "With them, this is the first time several of them have paid directly. There is still a little interest left in the bank, what do I put in this movie?"

    Zhong Yi said: "I think that the batch after the announcement will be able to catch up."

    "Now the market is not as good as before, and they still consider the money as improper money." Liang Sili watched him speak and continue at the same time he secretly sent the money inwards, fearing that he would miss this cake. Singing on his face was like losing money, he said, "The final decision is in your hands teacher Zhong."

    "In the past few days, he had been called wrong and now the film and television couldn't make a few dollars, saying that the film and television was making money by fooling their laymen." Zhong Yi shook his head, "The audience's awareness of watching movies has increased, basically I can understand the audio-visual rules. Previously, things that had been organized step by step could not satisfy the market. It was better to have a few screenwriters with this kind of money. "

    Money can't be spent on the edge of the knife. If the person who made the money doesn't make it, it will inevitably fail to produce good things.

   The money they made was invested by Zhong Yi, and Zhong Yi didn't spend it all, but the amount was too large, and the unnecessary share of the investors naturally reduced the profits earned.

    Not to mention, he, Liang Sili, Ding Runnian and Hua An took a large share in the name of individuals. If they lost money in the end, they would be the first lose a lot of it themselves- and it was precisely because of this that it was given to the people behind. They had the courage to waste money regardless of life and death.

"There are a few more actors who want to get into the rigor. "More often than money, Liang Sili received calls from Cypriots, " and after the lunch, there is a gathering. "

    Zhong Yiyi: "Huh?"

    In general, he would not show his face at such a crowded occasion, not to mention only when a few investors gathered together?

    "The new generation of Rica has good actors, and their acting skills are good. Just a few of them are his fans. So, they brought him along." It was not Liang Sili who deliberately concealed it from Zhong Yi, it was mainly because he himself had just found out, "It was estimated that he was afraid that he would not show up, so he didn’t tell us until now. "

    Zhong Yi: "Main role?"

    To get this kind of treatment meant they really want to force him. Which younger generation actor was it who wanted the role so badly?

    Liang Sili smiled wryly and said, "It's for the main role, and he’s an old acquaintance of yours."

    Zhong Yi raised an eyebrow.

    Liang Sili raised his eyebrows and said: "Yu Jin."

    In the private room, one woman and five men were waiting, Zhong Yi and Liang Sili arrived late.

    Everyone stood up when they saw the two open the door and enter. Among them, the one closest to Zhong Yi was the youngest of the six.

    "Mr. Zhong." As soon as Yu Jin bowed, he helped Zhong Yi pull his chair to sit.

    He was the youngest on the scene, but he was physically the strongest. He was a little taller than Zhong Yi and had a handsome physique. When he smiled, he had little shallow dimples on both sides of his cheeks. He was handsome, high spirited and looked vibrant.

    Of course, Zhong Yi had seen this child's hormones in bed.

    "I haven't seen you for a long time." Yu Jin's words rushed towards Zhong Yi, and there was also a bright smile, no shame, no curiosity. On the contrary, his front teeth were exposed full of confidence and were lingering on Zhong Yi. Straight forward but not too annoying.

    Zhong Yi was polite, he simply sat back with a nod, and Liang Sili was on the other side.

    Everyone laughed and said: "I thought Xiao Yu was bragging when he said that he knew Mr. Zhong but it turns out to be true."

    "Yeah, too low-key haha."

    "Of course who wouldn’t dare to like the child Mr. Zhong has fancy on, it makes sense that Xiao Yu has been able to mingle so well for many years."

    "Hey, what you said it isn’t the same Yu Jin who didn't work hard."

    "Haha, yes, I just wanted to highlight the young guy's root, Miao Hong, who was born to eat this bowl of rice."

    Listening to the politely round field speech in his ears, Yu Jin sat beside Zhong Yi on the waist board and waited for the show to begin.

    Zhong was called by their partnership. The food at the gathering was not the right board, and his face was not too bad, but it was not good, especially when compared to Liang Sili ’s old churros.

    Without further delay, the crowd simply opened the door and hit a few words ​​and then got to the point...

    It was just now that "Aesthetics 2" began to cast roles, they wanted Yu Jin to pick the bigger role and act as the main role.

    Yu Jin had always known about the double plug. There were a few people at the table, even if the woman and the few rough masters who were obviously not bribed had helped him to say good things.

    The main idea was that he had acted for so many years. Although the child was only twenty-three, but the acting skills were not that necessary, the resources were not bad, the fans would still watch the movie and the coffee was lined with "Aesthetics 2".

    But Zhong Yi said that this child's resources were not only "not bad", he was simply too good, all the way like sitting on a rocket, taking Zhang Haopixiang's line of acting strength, all cooperation was old bones. He has won countless fashion contests and now he was still endorsed by several luxury brands.

    To put it simply, it meant that the rules in the circle had been turned around, the budget could be flexed and stretched, and it was good to outsource people.

    The public would easily buy this kind of actor. He had played a few positive roles similar to a cop etc.. The drafts were easy to write, and the coffee was naturally quick.

    Everyone tried sweet talking Zhong Yi and Liang Sili that this role was suitable for Xiao Yu, but Zhong Yi didn't responded. Liang Sili was alone, but his response was very neutral.

    It seems that you have talked with him kindly, and the final decision will always fall into his hands for this matter. He did not count, and the variable was strictly controlled by Zhong Yi.

    It caused Yu Jin's eyes to roll several times at the two of them. It was only after he heard the bosses' greetings that he had a little convergence, when he was asked to serve tea to Zhong Yi, he knowingly poured wine to Zhong Yi. The meaning of "sell" could not be more obvious.

    He did as he did, looking at the sensible and obedient child only Zhong Yi knew that this man's other big hand touched his leg boldly under the table.

    Yu Jin caught Zhong Yi's attention under Liang Sili's eyes and whispered and did not seem to be annoying: "After so many years, Teacher Zhong is still so beautiful."

    In response to this, Zhong Yi only hummed inexplicably, and the chopsticks eating seriously while holding the bowl didn't even stop.

    The same was true of Liang Sili, who also heard the content on the side. The smile on his face did not change at all. The child and Zhong Yi were meandering at the same point before, and he naturally knew it.

    At that time, the two of them were on a business trip with the group. They didn't know how the boy heard Zhong Yi's brand name. In the name of room service, he knocked on the door and opened a door-to-door posture.

    At that time, Yu Jin was an adolescent and his figure was long, and his big boyishness had not faded. The smile was sunny and handsome. It didn't seem to be unspoken of at all.

    Zhong Yi knew what the child wanted to do, but he didn't care, he just thought he was quite pleasing to the eye. Before undressing, he casually asked two question before only to probably know if the child had experience, but if he had less experience, he would fall asleep. No promise was made, and Yu Jin didn't think there was any problem with that.

    But this was obviously not because he was stupid and had no social experience in this respect, but because he was smart.

    Regardless of the conditions, he said that he would be happy to accompany people without saying a word, and then asked Zhong Yi, who later asked him, even if he could not change anything, if he could go to bed with Teacher Zhong, it would be profitable. .

    The child was indeed a smart child, knowing the situation. Later, Zhong Yi glanced at his audition tape on the bed and found that he was not bad. He gave him what he wanted.

    The truth was that most of the time it was not because you were not good enough, but it was because you would miss an opportunity.

    Since then, Yu Jin always had a little red flavor.

    He looked for Zhong Yi later and did not ask for anything. Zhong Yi nodded and promised nothing. It was simple, rude and pure.

    However, the first few times Zhong threw some opportunities at him and never called him again.

    But it was precisely that resource that gave him a firm foothold in the circle, saying that Zhong gave him his "Break". It would not be an exaggeration, otherwise he would never have the opportunity to win the best newcomer award at those festivals.

    After dinner at noon that day, everyone drank a lot. When they were about to take a taxi, one of them smiled ambiguously. He said that Zhong Yi had worked hard recently and he had just borrowed Mr. Liang to renew his booth and asked Yu Jin to escort Zhong Yi to rest.

    Although everyone knew the relationship between Liang Sili and Zhong Yi, the two of them were also famous in the circle.

    Right now, they were cramming into Zhong Yi's bed. Liang Sili was standing on the side without any dissent, and he looked as happy as Zhong Yi.

    Zhong Yi pulled the door and said, "You go."

    Even when the bosses gave Yu Jin a wink, Yu Jin opened the taxi door on the other side and he sat next to Zhong Yi.

    Saying goodbye to the people through the window while the driver asked where the destination was.

    Before Yu Jin could speak, he heard Zhong Yi leaning against the window and the old god answered, "Ask him."

    Yu Jin's heart was full, and he did not struggle, he honestly gave his hotel address.

    Zhong Yi rubbed his temples: "If you want to come, you can audition directly."

    This time it was different from the past. In his current position, there was no need to pretend to be the unknown young man.

    After all, he had never made a firm deal, saying that it was an opportunity, he really wanted to give him an opportunity. In the end, how he would perform depended on his own skills.

    But Yu Jin looked at him deeply and said, "I just missed you."
