Chapter 77
Zhu Longyi and his agent were also discussing on the way back.
"Brother, what do you think?" Zhu Longyi asked.
"Actually, when you are in the industry, it is definitely right to have many friends. There is no harm in being friends with someone with creative talent like Xia Haoyang. Today he writes songs and music, and maybe he can write a movie script tomorrow, or even work as a sponsor to do it. It’s been released. Of course it’s best if we can make good friends.”
"Ah."
"But, what about this job, a MV for a girl group's song, asking you to be the male lead? Tsk, to be honest, if it's just a cameo or two, we can just make a friend and help out for free. Now I want to be the leading actor in the MV of a girl group’s song! I always feel that this is not appropriate and it’s awkward to say it. How will my colleagues think about it?” The manager still felt that it lowered Zhu Longyi’s reputation.
"His script is really pretty good." Zhu Longyi thought the script was pretty good.
"But after all, it's just a MV for a song. Long Yi, it's hard to say how much money you'll make. With your popularity this year, I guess you'll have other film appointments before the year. It's such a waste of time to shoot this MV. I think the gain outweighs the loss, or so Come on, tell Xia Haoyang, we won’t ask for money anymore, I’ll help you with a few guest scenes, but I won’t be the protagonist, what do you think?”
"Okay, make friends, but don't be the protagonist." Zhu Longyi also approved of the agent's approach.

Fat Cat Studio
“Mr. They will cooperate, but the time can only be arranged within one day, but the cost is not mentioned." Xiao Liu, who worked hard at the front desk, conveyed the content of the phone call he just received to the bosses who were discussing in the office.
"It's expected, and it's a free guest appearance, which can be regarded as making us a friend. This is blameless." Xie Shujie recognized the attitude of Zhu Longyi Studio.
"Yes, they are all in the industry. They can make money by being harmonious and getting along well is the first priority. How can they be like those in the novel who are always mindless and ridicule and slap in the face." Xia Haoyang also laughed at himself.
"Okay, Fatty, you really think of yourself as the protagonist of the world. The world is going to revolve around you, so you don't have the brains to target you? Why should I target you? Who do you think you are?" Han Xiyu joked.
"The question is what does the male protagonist of our current MV say?" Zhou Yuanhong did not accept everyone's jokes, but turned to serious issues.
"I still think Lao Xie is fine. After all, it's just a MV. However, I unconditionally agree with Fatty's decision." Han Xiyu looked at Xia Haoyang.
"Fat man, tell me." Zhou Yuanhong also looked at Xia Haoyang.
Lao Xie did not express his position, but he also looked at Xia Haoyang. No one else was in the office.
"Well, if Zhu Longyi refuses, then let's watch it again. I think about it, this drama version of the MV will cause a sensation, but for this drama version of the MV to be shot well, there must be someone with excellent acting skills to lead the whole thing. Team. Lao Xie, just talking about acting skills, I think..."
"Fat man, don't worry about me. We have been classmates for four years in college and know each other well. I'm not an acting major. There is indeed a gap between me and professional actors. That's okay. It's just that you have such high requirements for this role. Can you find the right person? ? If you have good acting skills, are you willing to appear in the MV? I'd rather be a supporting actor for your girl group." Lao Xie didn't mind Fatty's doubts about his acting skills, but felt that Fatty had difficulty finding suitable actors.
"Well, let me think about it." The fat man thought for a while.
Xia Haoyang is very distressed, because among the actors he knows so far, he thinks Zhu Longyi is the most suitable for this plot. However, due to the salary and status of Chinese actors, they will not allow a hot actor like Zhu Longyi to shoot a MV. How did South Korea do it back then? Even the second male lead, Ji Chang Wook, has won awards such as Best Actor in TV Dramas and Best Newcomer in Movies. Why can an actor from South Korea be able to film a MV for a girl group?
How about looking for a drama actor? For example, the male protagonist who played Tang Wanqi in "Three Years of Life" wanted to sign him to his studio. However, although the male protagonist's acting skills were good, his style was not melancholic and profound, so it was not suitable for him. This MV. Should you try it forcefully? Or ask your teacher to recommend a suitable drama actor, or find a suitable teacher at the film school? Xia Haoyang mentally considered the candidates for the MV.
After buying groceries and returning to the rental house, I went to the kitchen to cook a tomato, an egg, and a stir-fried pork with pepper. Although I was just one person, I still cooked by myself. I usually made 2 meals, one in the evening, and the other in the evening. I ate half of it this morning.
As long as Tianci and others didn't come to him for drinks and late-night snacks, Xia Haoyang's life at night was very simple. He did exercise to lose weight, watched football games on weekends, read books, and occasionally wrote scripts. It was just such an ordinary life. His weight is still at the stage of 170. It can be said that from the time he started losing weight a year ago to mid-October, he only lost about 50 pounds.
Maybe many people don’t quite understand. Didn’t you go back in time and still be a dancer? Haven't you always lived a self-disciplined life? How come it took me ten months to lose less than 50 pounds? According to various weight loss news on the Internet, even if you eat McDonald's every day, you can lose 2 pounds in 3 to 50 months. It is too unprofessional for a professional dancer like you to lose pounds in ten months.
In fact, everyone has misunderstood. Just because he is a professional dancer, he knows the terrible effect of weight loss and rebound. Many people only notice the loss of weight and ignore the rebound after losing weight! The muscles or cells of the body actually have memory. No matter what method you adopt, you can lose 30 pounds in a month. In fact, many methods can do it, but as long as you relax or stop the current method of losing weight, your body will lose weight in a short time. Rebound to the beginning of your crazy weight loss in a short period of time! This kind of rebound hurts the body even more.
Therefore, the method adopted by Xia Haoyang is not a quick way to lose weight. With a body weight of more than 200 kilograms, losing 4-6 kilograms per month is the most effective way to deceive the body and have the least rebound effect. Even if he no longer insists on doing the strength exercises and bent-leg exercises he is doing now, his body will remain roughly at his non-exercise weight and will not rebound back to the 220 pounds he lost at the beginning of his weight loss. Therefore, in reality, when losing weight, everyone must pay attention to the secondary damage to the body caused by rebound. Losing a large amount of weight in a short period of time is not the best way to lose weight.
Suddenly the phone came to mind. Xia Haoyang, who was doing leg exercises, picked up the phone.
"Hey."
"Son, what are you doing? You're out of breath."
"I'm losing weight, Mom, what's the matter?"
"If you have nothing to do, you can't call my sweet son."
"Of course. Well, why do you hear the sound of mahjong?"
"Yeah, I'm playing mahjong with my friends now."
"Oh, then you fight, I won't disturb you anymore, hang up."
"Why are you so anxious? I'm bragging to my partner. My son is so good at writing songs. Can he write a song for my partner?"
"Your partner is a singer?"
"That's right. I've also sung songs, but I've done more filming."
"Oh, then who is your partner? Who should I write to?"
"Carina Lau!"
