Chapter 22 Villa Mr.
Pei Zhixun's trip was actually to New York to participate in the exchange activities of the Chinese and American Dramatists Association Council.
He and his wife Xu Qishang followed the official team and settled in several big cities on the east coast of the United States.
The two of them are also very busy at ordinary times.
They often travel for business or attend events at home and abroad.
These specific itineraries are generally not explained to their son.
Both parties are busy with their own affairs.
That’s why I rushed to San Diego in time to visit my son, and then took another flight back home together.
When Pei Yan returned to China, he walked through a special passage at the airport, used a stretcher truck and then moved it into a nanny car, leaving behind a group of movie fans who came to visit him with flowers and gifts, chasing after the car.
After that, he did take a truce for nearly a month, without starting work or showing up.
After he asked Wang Yuanling to put all his work aside, he wanted to take a break, relax himself, and think about some things carefully.
In fact, I got up from the hospital bed a long time ago.
I am active again and can go running and playing ball in Wang Jue's fitness club.
He spent every evening in his buddy's gym, playing squash with Wang Jue.
He didn't dare to drink too much, so he just chatted.
He leaned back on the rest chair and stretched out his long legs.
Hot sweat flowed down from the top of his head with his hot mood.
Wang Jue threw away his racket and came over to sit with him.
This man is also a tall, thick, muscular guy.
He looks heavy and heavy wherever he sits.
"It's not easy going out," Wang Jue patted his thigh and said, "Look at your virtue after being manipulated into a sallow complexion and a haggard appearance."
"Yes," Pei Yan looked forward, "I feel so haggard because of Yi."
"Is it true?"
Wang Jue looked incredulous, "You" "I miss you a lot."
Pei Yan confessed.
"Hurry up and buy a plane ticket and go back," Wang Jue said.
"After all, we're too far away and they didn't take the initiative to contact me.
They don't care about me, so it's no big deal."
Pei Yan said melancholy.
"I have never seen you like this."
Wang Jue stared at him, "If you are serious about it, then go ahead."
"I'll think about it again.
Is it better to retreat when faced with difficulties or to face them head on?"
Pei Yan stared at the solid and unbreakable wall opposite him.
That wall seems to be unbreakable.
If you hit it hard with bare hands, you will definitely get blood, but you can't be too rough and the guy on the ground will flatten it.
By the way, Uncle Johnny was very interesting.
He took the trouble to go through several bags of garbage packed and thrown in the corridor of the hospital emergency department that day, and found a hanging fragment of blood-stained clothes.
The clothes looked like unearthed cultural relics that had gone through vicissitudes of life, stained with ancient blood stains, dust and mud. , I think it should be this one.
Johnny Wu later told him that dry blood stains are difficult to test, but I checked for you and found that Mr.
Zhuang is type AB.
People with this blood type have weird personalities, so I guess they are quite difficult to deal with.
Pei Yan said, I am O-shaped, I am not weird, I am loved by everyone.
Johnny Wu shook his head, haha, you are the worst, you are a stupid kid.
"Hey, your figure is so attractive to you."

Wang Jue was amused at this moment, showing off the strong and dark muscles on his shoulders and arms, "How do you compare with me?"
"He's a nice guy.
He's very handsome and has a good figure.
He's very attractive to me."
Pei Yan rolled her eyes at the other person.
"You're too busy practicing.
You can't beat me in a single round.
I'm not going to play anymore."
"What kind of virtue?
Just practicing with you is enough for me.
I charge 600 an hour as a personal trainer, okay?"
Wang Jue glared at him.
"It's possible for someone like you to put it up for sale, but you can't sell it."
His buddy gave him a message.
Pei Yan always had his eyes set high above his head, and no one looked down on him.
It was rare for him to encounter a dish that suited his stomach.
If it were Zhuang Xiao, we could still have a fight.
Playing ball would be more interesting than practicing with others.
It's just that the other party's thoughts are unpredictable, and if he stays away from him, he doesn't have much chance.
A person with that kind of personality is not someone who can just pick up and mess around.
He doesn't dare to do anything disrespectful or dishonorable.
When he returned to the company, he listened attentively to the lectures and talks from the old godfathers and aunties, and worked out the next development plan for him.
Wang Yuanling touched this dazzling bald head, her eyes full of love: "I was injured and sick after going out.
We can't go out and wander around in vain.
Even if we have gained some fame this time, if we have the opportunity in the future, the company will still Get the project over there for you.”
Pei Yan's heart moved and she agreed happily: "Okay."
Zhang Huan said: "Old Pei, you are very capable.
You are another kung fu star after Zhuang Xiao who has successfully landed in Hollywood and been recognized by big productions."
"Don't."
Pei Yan knew that Zhang Huan was going to tell him another long story to harden him, so he quickly blocked the other party's train of thought, "Don't compare me with Zhuang Xiao.
I'm far behind others.
Are you trying to take advantage of others?"
"Whoever takes advantage of someone else's popularity" Zhang Huan smiled, "You are more famous and popular than him in China now.
If you don't make news for a few days, the popularity will drop; if you don't show up in the country for a few months, the audience will have long forgotten about this person.
This If you don’t fill in the position, who can?”
Zhang Huan had already explained and apologized to him about what happened last time, and the hyped press release was quietly withdrawn, and all activities ceased.
But Pei Yan found that he didn't like listening to Zhang Huan's speech, especially when he mentioned Zhuang Xiao, which made him feel unhappy every time.
"This is also true."
Wang Yuanling said tactfully, "With your image and positioning, there are not many newcomers who can compete with you.
Others have this face, but they can't beat you.
You can definitely fill this position.
You can keep going up.”
Pei Yan understood that the old aunt and Zhang Huan were on the right track and were working hard to pave the way for him.
No one had any ill intentions towards him.
If there was money, we could all make money together.

But, he was thinking about other things Wang Yuanling also said: "It will also give you the opportunity to star in a cooperation drama with a major TV station, such as the role of a Chinese actor in Knights of the Distant Star."
Pei Yan opened her sleepy eyes as soon as she heard this: "Isn't it the TV series that Zhuang Xiao participated in?"
This is Fox TV's signature drama, a science fiction hero action film that has been in production for several years.
Zhuang Xiao has starred in it for at least three seasons.
This drama was popular in the United States, and then moved to China.
Both the original English version and the subtitled translated version are very popular on the Internet.
Pei Yan has been quietly following this drama without missing an episode.
Pei Yan said: "Are you kidding?"
Zhang Huan and the others said to him seriously: "I'm not joking with you.
We are looking for an opportunity to talk and ask you to join us."
Pei Yan's thoughts, which had cooled down, were stirred up with a faint flame again.
The company's late-night snacks, Ma Xiao and Chuan Chuan Xiang, were placed on the table in the conference room.
The aroma filled the room, which was hot and enticing.
"The movie Dragon Wars has also been postponed for some reason.
There is a quarrel online over the issue of another leading role.
The postponement is just right in line with your schedule.
It's a coincidence.
Baby, please prepare to join the cast next month."
Wang Yuanling said in In front of him, he pulled the crayfish on the big plate with two fingers.
A group of people gathered around the table and began to eat with their fingers.
Pei Yan ate quickly, and soon he had a pile of shells.
"Master, is there anything else you don't like?"
The assistant's fingers were too slow to grab it.
"My physical strength is exhausted."
Pei Yan kept chewing in his mouth, peeling the shells with his fingers like a squirrel.
"It's too much sneaking around at night," the assistant said.
"You should also let the chicken rest for a while." "" "Get out of here!"
Pei Yan picked up a skewer and was about to throw it out.
The assistant boy ran away with a "ouch" and out of the range of the shooting, so he didn't get nailed to the wall with a bamboo pick.
The base of my ears felt a little hot, and the ear with the earring suddenly turned red.
He felt that he was the one who felt uncomfortable being nailed to the wall.
He felt uncomfortable with being poked at because he secretly masturbated too much at night, and he was still thinking about masturbating to a certain person.
It was still some time before the Dragon Battle Tianguan crew started filming.
Pei Yan contacted Zhuang Xiao that day.
Instead of calling, he sent a WeChat message.
That's how people are, the longer it brews, the fuller their emotions become, but they don't know what to say, and the two of them just go back and forth.
Pei Yan said: Are you in Los Angeles?
I'll come over.
Zhuang Xiao replied: On the set, not far from home, what's going on?
Pei Yan: I'm just going to stay for two days, come here to relax, and take a look at you, don't you mind?
Zhuang Xiao: Whatever you mind, you can do it.
Pei Yan: I will contact you tomorrow and treat you to dinner.
Pei Yan couldn't help but smile, stared at the screen, and typed an extremely childish emoticon, not expecting someone like Zhuang Xiao to reply with his emoticon.
Whenever the brain is occupied by one person, the capacity is not enough, and the IQ starts to fall short.
What a fool.

Unexpectedly, Zhuang Xiao responded to him with a one-second video, which stunned him with her beauty.
Shit, that workaholic is on set, and it’s the action stunt crew working late into the night.
The set looks like the crew of Knights of the Distant Stars.
A simulated space capsule model stand dozens of meters high has been erected on the empty field.
Stuntmen in black armor uniforms are wandering around in the camera, as if the set is haunted.
The lights were brilliant everywhere.
Pei Yan stared at it several times: Which one is you?
Zhuang Xiao said: I was shooting videos Pei Yan said in her heart, if you let someone else take the picture, I just want to look at you.
Why should I look at others?
After typing out half a line, I silently deleted it.
When they met again, it was the evening of the next day.
Zhuang Xiao was driving home after the show and happened to pick up Mr.
Pei who had come all the way.
"Why didn't you tell me the flight time?"
Zhuang Xiao poked his head out of the car window, snuffed out his cigarette, and combed his hair neatly.
The smile is still so calm and charming, making people unable to see through the heart at a glance, but it always makes people want to look deeply into those eyes and touch the heart.
"I don't want you to pick me up at the airport, and I don't want to delay your filming."
Pei Yan was alone, carrying a bag, wearing an ordinary shirt and jeans, dusty with travel.
He showed his trademark careless smile: "I'm out here for a few days, sorry to bother you, thank you for taking me in."
Zhuang Xiao said, "Come and disturb me at will."
Pei Yan was not polite: "I don't know anyone in this unfamiliar place.
I really have no other place to go."
The location of the Los Angeles studio makes it easy for actors in the industry to come and go.
They get off work at a certain time and go home after get off work.
They all live in a satellite city that is an hour or two drive away.
Those celebrities who are particular about ostentation may take a private plane back directly.
Zhuang Xiao doesn't have much ostentation and just drives his own car.
"Why don't you come over to do something when you have time?"
Zhuang Xiao asked him: "Lao Wu asked me to come over again for a screen test and to meet the director," Pei Yan said vaguely, "If you don't have a single character, you may not be able to negotiate."
He asked the other party: "Are you still going to the set tomorrow?
Can I go visit the crew and observe the big production scenes?
I have nothing to do anyway."
Zhuang Xiao said: "I've moved this week's work break to tomorrow to treat you."
"That's interesting."
Pei Yan covered half of his face with a baseball cap and said with a smile, "Hurry up and have a cigarette.
I allow you to smoke one.
Don't hold it in and open the window."
He turned his head and stared at Zhuang Xiao's handsome profile against the setting sun, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you tired?
I can drive."
Zhuang Xiao said: "I'm not tired."
"Oh, you can't borrow someone else's hand to drive a car, forget about that."
Pei Yan joked, "You can't lend out two things.
You can't lend someone else to drive a car, and you can't lend someone else to use your wife."
"If you say that, I can't let you drive it."
Zhuang Xiao snorted, "Without a wife, I would only have this broken car."

The evening sun shines through the car window, casting an ordinary yet vivid luster in front of me.
It is obviously the same temperature as the setting sun every evening, and it has been like this for more than 20 years, but it happens to be at a turning corner on the road ahead, making people feel that it is different from before.
Far away from the edge of the flowery Vanity Fair, this place is closer to the peaceful and real life of ordinary people.
There is a sharp contrast between the grand entertainment plans and career ambitions in the company and the dullness of wandering on the way home.
When Pei Yan tried to break into Hollywood and desperately wanted to get to know Zhuang Xiao, his mentality at that time had quietly deviated from the track compared to now.
However, now he still desperately wants to "get to know" the other person, and his mentality and purpose are completely different. , but they also reach the same destination by different routes.
The infinite glory of Hollywood stars that ordinary people imagine, but for actors like him and Zhuang Xiao, it is just a matter of greatness on the surface, but this road is actually extremely hard.
Pei Yan settled the matter for herself.
She worked hard on the set for several months and got seriously ill.
The US dollars she earned were not as good as returning to China to take part in a few variety shows and fake performances.
If he comes back, it won't be for fame and fortune, and he feels that Zhuang Xiao doesn't come for money either.
In a big production, the leading actor takes away tens of millions of dollars, while the supporting actors only get a few hundred thousand dollars each.
Whoever came here just to make money would have died long ago.
Zhuang Xiao took him back to his home in Irvine, and then called a small group of local acquaintances and friends to have a meal together.
We are all a group of Chinese people, we are all locals, and we will become familiar with each other after just a few words.
I found a Japanese tavern, where sake goes with sushi and seafood, and the atmosphere is very comfortable.
Pei Yan actually only wanted to see Zhuang Xiao and had no interest in the people around him, but she understood Mr.
Zhuang's good intentions and was afraid that he would be lonely and bored, so she took him out to make friends.
Pei Yan can drink.
Anyone with a bold temperament at the wine table can easily make friends with others.
"Aren't you unfamiliar with this place?
Now that you know the people, you won't be homeless and have no place to stay next time you come back."
Zhuang Xiao told him.
"I just came to settle down, and you just want to throw away the burden?"
Pei Yan looked at the other party.
"No, we don't have wine at home."
Zhuang Xiao said, "We don't even have half a bottle of wine.
You go to my house and pry open the floor and hollow it out, but you can't dig out what you want to drink."
Pei Yan lowered her eyelashes and smiled.
I came all the way to your house.
Is it the floor of your house that I want to "pry"?
Among the friends we had dinner with, there was this fair-skinned, big-eyed young man who was quite good-looking, named Liang Youhui.
Zhuang Xiao pointed to that person and introduced to Pei Yan: "Go find him.
If nothing else, he has all kinds of wine."
Liang Youhui is a local wine businessman in California.
He has a cheerful and fun-loving personality and speaks loudly.
The two parties became familiar with each other after chatting all night.
Mr.
Liang was well-dressed and wore a diamond earring on his left ear.
Pei Yan quietly looked at him from head to toe for several rounds.
He realized that the other person had also looked at his chest and lower body as if he was secretly watching Chen Cang, and he knew it.
She's good-looking, has a nice butt, and looks very sexy at first glance, but it's not his taste.
He was confused, why did Zhuang Xiao introduce him to such a friend?
Did Zhuang Xiao see it?
Liang Youhui brought a few bottles of good wine with him.

He was so drunk that he said: "Dating with you makes me feel very frustrated.
Brother Xiao, I can't even offer you a bribe or give you a good thing.
Why don't you give me a drop of it?"
Don’t touch it” Zhuang Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at the other person: "I'm not interested, that's not good."
Liang Youhui smiled and said: "Which one is your best, I really want to know."
Zhuang Xiao: "I haven't seen it before."
Liang Youhui shook his head: "I've never seen you so good.
We've never seen you."
Zhuang Xiao showed him the way to Pei Yan: "Drinking at the same table with Lao Pei will give you a special sense of accomplishment.
When you return home, you can do his business and make his money."
Mr.
Pei drank all the bottles of good wine that Liang Youhui brought, and he could handle any brand or quality of wine.
Liang Youhui picked a bottle that was expensive and tasted the best, poured a glass specially and pushed it in front of Zhuang Xiao.
"Brother Xiao, this wine is really good.
I'm in this business, and I don't want to be a friend.
"Those who have never drunk it, who have never tasted this, are at a loss and have lived in vain."
Liang Youhui looked at Zhuang Xiao and tempted him with wine.
Zhuang Xiao didn't answer the question.
He didn't even move his fingers and flirting was useless.
He said he didn't want to drink, so he just didn't drink.
Brother Xiao.
Pei Yan recited these two words silently in his heart, dozens of times in one night.
He unceremoniously took the glass of red wine off the table, drank it for Zhuang Xiao, and drank it all in one gulp.
The two of them sat on the same sofa, right next to each other.
Needless to say, they just felt closer than other people, even though there was no real closeness.
When he went to the bathroom to relieve himself, Zhuang Xiao said to him: "Liang Youhui usually hangs out in Chaoyang District, very close to you.
He is a good person, and his business is reliable."
Pei Yan adjusted the waistband of his trousers, raised his head and stared at Zhuang Xiao: "He looks curvy, right?"
"That may be the case.
I haven't asked in detail and I haven't met any of his friends."
Zhuang Xiao had no expression on his lips.
"His partner seems to be from Tianjin.
I count you as half a fellow countryman."
Pei Yan raised and lowered his breath, rising and falling for several rounds, and then thought that Zhuang Xiao probably didn't notice and was just introducing a friend at the wine table as usual.
Zhuang Xiao didn't care much about other people's private lives, nor did he dig in and out.
It was because he thought too much and worried about gains and losses that it almost killed him. gd1806102:
