    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    It’s been almost a month since the competition ended. Whether it’s chatting among friends or being interviewed on the show, one of the questions Meng Huo is asked the most is: How is life different after winning the championship?

    Meng Huo thought about it, but he really didn't think there was any difference.If he had to answer, Meng Huo could only say that he seemed to be more free than before.

    Let's say now.

    Meng Huo was lying on the soft carpet, and the wide and bright floor-to-ceiling windows cut off the summer heat outside. The air conditioner in the room was fully turned on, so that Meng Huo wrapped himself tightly in his little quilt while turning on the 18-degree air conditioner.

    He bit the fruit fork and turned another page of the script.

    During this period of time, in addition to occasionally filming commercials and magazines, and running a few business trips, reading scripts has become Meng Huo's main job.

    On the final night of "New Power of Actors", Ji Ming didn't invite any of them to play, whether it was Joan who came in second or Meng Huo who won the championship. Given Ji Ming's style of going his own way, everyone wasn't too surprised.

    But didn't even get the chance to audition, it would be a lie to say that didn't lose.

    But Meng Huo's ability to self-regulate his emotions has always been strong and rampant. After a brief regret, he not only comforted Joan, who failed in star chasing, but also persuaded Yu Yue in a friendly voice when he was about to kill him and ask Ji Ming directly.

    Meng Huo coaxed Yu Yue, and tried to analyze to him the many "benefits" of not making it into Ji Ming's movie.

    "Director Ji is full of procrastination, and a movie can be shot for several years! Just imagine, how much it will affect me to make money for you!"

    The smoothest movie directed by Ji Ming was starring Lu Xinghuai. Even so, it was filmed on and off for two years, halfway through. Ji Ming said that he was not in the mood and stopped filming immediately. Lu Xinghuai was taken by other big directors.I went to shoot "Back to the Sea", and won the Best Newcomer Award that year for this film.

    Yu Yue's expression softened slightly.

    Meng Huo struck while the iron was hot, and continued, "Three of the five director Ji's movies cannot be shown in the mainland!"

    For filmmakers, this is undoubtedly a pity, but from the perspective of a businessman, Meng Huo's words undoubtedly touched Yu Yue's heart.

    After a few days of hard work, Yu Yue thought about it, turned his anger into strength, and talked to Meng Huo about two important new endorsements: TK and a certain luxury brand's makeup.

    But when signing the contract, Yu Yue couldn't help but sighed.

    "...It's a pity that they are only the spokespersons for the Asia-Pacific region."

    Compared with the nice title of "Actor's New Power" championship, the work is the foundation and the best footnote for an actor to settle down.

    Looking at several TV dramas that Meng Huo has participated in before, the most important one is "Twenty Two", a small online drama with an unknown production team.

    The broadcast time coincided with the hot spots of the graduation season, coupled with the wonderful performances of the female lead and the male lead in "New Power of Actors" both reached the finals, "Twenty Two" became the most discussed in this early summer as a dark horsehot style.

    The spokesperson for the Asia-Pacific region is at this stage. With the joint efforts of Meng Huo and Yu Yue, they can get the top title.

    Meng Huo knew the importance of the work better than anyone else. Only by seizing the precious opportunity of rising and playing a few more good roles can he catch up with Lu Xinghuai as soon as possible!

    The goal he set for himself at the beginning of the year has been overfulfilled in less than half a year.

    Meng Huo has a new goal: by the end of this year, the number of fans will reach 1/2 of that of Lu Xinghuai.

    The further you go, the harder it is to achieve your goal.

    Meng Huo lowered his eyes, read the last page of the script intently and efficiently, then closed it, and opened a new one to continue reading.

    Although he didn't get an invitation from Director Ji, "The New Power of Actors" is a phenomenal variety show in the second season of Cool Audio, and the title of the championship, which is nice and loud, still has a lot of influence.The scripts given to Meng Huo recently, both in terms of quantity and quality, have been qualitatively improved compared to before.

    After Yu Yue went through a simple preliminary screening, he fully handed over the right to choose to Meng Huo, letting him take a good look and choose by himself.

    Yu Yue also lived in the north city, and was afraid that Meng Huo would fish at home alone, and he had seen the house Meng Huo was renting now, and said mercilessly, "The fish in my house are better than where you live.

    Fang Da".

    Meng Huo: "..."

    Without further ado, Yu Yue simply packed up an empty room in his villa and let Meng Huo live in it.

    Having been a bachelor all his life, Yu Yue was used to having nothing to worry about and walking alone. He grew up with such a small entertainer, so he couldn't treat Meng Huo very well, it was almost as if he was raising him like a son.

    Auntie went upstairs with sliced seedless watermelon and chilled mung bean soup. Meng Huo bowed his eyes and raised his head to thank Auntie.

    Ever since Meng Huo moved into the villa, there was laughter and laughter in the usually deserted house, and it finally felt like home. My aunt has worked in this house for decades, and really like this well-behaved, polite,Loveable youth who make a difference.

    "There are freshly picked lychees downstairs, Xiao Meng, do you want to eat them?" Auntie said enthusiastically.

    Meng Huo smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie, no need, I don't like lychees."

    Meng Huo continued to read the script.

    He lived a fulfilling and comfortable life, and he even hummed a song subconsciously, the sound of which overwhelmed the sound of door opening and footsteps.

    It wasn't until a beautiful silhouette was reflected on the script in front of his eyes that Meng Huo raised his head slowly, his eyes lit up.

    This was the first time Meng Huo saw Lu Xinghuai in more than a month after the night of the finals.

    It is good to find someone in the circle to fall in love.

    It's good that won't see you for ten days and a half months.

    Xiao Biesheng was newlywed, Meng Huo threw Lu Xinghuai down on the carpet with his eyes wide open.

    "How did you come?"

    Because now is a precious period of career advancement, Yu Yue strictly forbids the two of them to be in close contact, in case the paparazzi will be photographed and leak the news. Meng Huo did not expect that Lu Xinghuai could persuade Yu Yue.

    Lu Xinghuai slightly bent the corners of his lips, and said softly, "Come give some housewarming gifts to the new neighbors."

    Meng Huo looked down at the plate of fresh and large lychees that Lu Xinghuai was holding, and was startled for a moment before realizing the amount of information in Lu Xinghuai's words.

    Lu Xinghuai looked down at the villa opposite the floor-to-ceiling windows.

    When the weather is good, he can see Meng Huo directly from his bedroom.

    Lu Xinghuai peeled a lychee slowly and fed him, making sure he didn't ask for his guess.

    "Well, I bought it."

    Meng Huo: "..."

    If you are a neighbor in a community, you are no longer afraid of what the paparazzi will say in the photos.

    Meng Huo said vaguely with a lychee in his mouth.

    "Then I...go to Cengfan."

    Lu Xinghuai continued to peel the lychees to feed him, and the white and plump lychees were placed on the porcelain plate.

    It's not that Meng Huo doesn't like eating lychees, he's just lazy and hates sticky things.

    Lu Xinghuai fed him one, and his thin white fingertips inadvertently rubbed against the tip of his soft tongue, stirred it casually, and teased him in a low voice.

    "Anything else is welcome."

    Meng Huo's face became hot, and he felt that the lychees in his mouth were not pure anymore.

    Lu Xinghuai applied the moisture from his fingertips to Meng Huo's lips, spread it carelessly, leaned over to kiss him, and tasted the sweetness of iced lychees.

    While kissing, Lu Xinghuai's hand caressed his heart casually.

    "...From now on, don't come out with only a bath towel on. There are many perverts in this world, you know?" Lu Xinghuai rubbed his ears.

    Meng Huo was stunned for a moment, looking at the bright and clean floor-to-ceiling windows, his ears burned.

    Then Lu Xinghuai must be the one closest to him!

    After moving here, Lu Xinghuai often came across to read scripts with him. Yu Yue would always blow his beard and stare at his visits, but he turned a blind eye. Meng Huo often felt that he was a rebellious teenager in adolescence.The déjà vu of bringing home a boyfriend that the old father didn’t like madly.

    After reading the script for half a month, Meng Huo finally fell in love with a TV series with a good production team and a theme he liked.

    In the chain of discrimination in the entertainment industry, movie actors who act in TV dramas are called Xiafan, which shows their status.

    Yu Yue didn't agree with it at first, but he found Meng Huo's movie script. Literary and artistic films don't quite fit Meng Huo's screen image, and commercial films are also useful for promoting coffee.

    Not much, after a few days of entanglement, Yu Yue let go and let Meng Huo make his own choice.

    The night before they were about to sign the contract, Meng Huo and Joan received an email almost at the same time.

    File name: "The Bucket List".

    At first, Meng Huo thought it was some prank or a wrong email, but when he opened it, he found that it was a script, and the author's name was An Lan.

    As a book traveler, Meng Huo, who is a big boss of all kinds in this world, needs to search the Internet before he can find out.

    Meng Huo entered An Lan's name in the encyclopedia, and slowly scrolled down. When he saw the person in the photo of his spouse, Meng Huo said, "...".

    An Lan, Ji Ming's senior sister, wife, muse and golden partner when he was in film school.

    So far, the scripts of every movie Ji Ming has made come from An Lan.

    In Ji Ming's crew, the operating mode is more biased towards the foreign "scriptwriting position", and everything serves the screenwriter and script.

    An Lan was writing the script for Ji Ming's next movie, but unfortunately encountered a bottleneck. On the final night of "Actor's New Power", she was sitting in the auditorium.Come and have a look around and relax for some inspiration.

    Who would have thought that An Lan only watched the first round of the four contestants' cooperation stage, and broke through the bottleneck when she saw Meng Huo and Joan playing against each other.

    Evans springs up.

    An Lan didn't even watch the second round of the game, so she just slipped back to the hotel, turned off her phone, ruled out all outside interference, and overturned and rewritten all the original scripts.

    An Lan also knows that there are very few young actors nowadays who can withstand the temptation of rising in the sky, not to make quick money, and make a lot of money every day, not to mention Meng Huo and Joan's appearance conditions, they already have the capital to take the idol route.Before she actually wrote the script, An Lan didn't know how long it would take her to finish writing the script, so before the dust of the first draft was settled, she didn't dare to draw a cake rashly and let Meng Huo and Joan wait for a cake.

    It's not that the family doesn't enter the house, the couple both have severe procrastination.An Lan was in a hurry, and it took nearly two months to finally finalize the outline of the first draft of the script. Once the script was written, it was sent directly to Meng Huo and Joan before it was printed and bound into a book.

    Meng Huo only read the first page of the script, and there were four typos on one page. It could be seen that the screenwriter was really in a hurry.

    The timing of An Lan's email was just right, and Meng Huo and Joan were ready to sign contracts with other crews in less than 24 hours.

    Meng Huo was a little confused. At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, he went downstairs with his laptop and knocked on the manager's door.

    Yu Yue squinted his eyes, glanced roughly at the outline of the script, and made sure of one thing first: it can be played in China.

    Then there is no problem.

    Seeing Yu Yue's unusually calm expression, Meng Huo gradually calmed down.

    With very few exceptions, the protagonists of Ji Ming's films usually require years of training, screening and competition.

    Now the screenwriter sent him the script directly, Meng Huo thought, this might mean that although Director Ji didn't like him, the screenwriter did!

    In order to leave a good impression on the director, Meng Huo decided: "Uncle Yu, don't worry, I will definitely prepare for the audition!"

    Yu Yue raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Did you not read the email?"

    Yu Yue manually scrolled down the email sent to him by An Lan to the end.

    Artists always have an unconditional preference for muses.

    "As long as you want, this role is yours."

    Meng Huo looked at the small line of words at the end of the email, which was easily overlooked, and fell silent.

    "It's the boss who insists on supporting me".
