Chapter 266 The world is awake
Suning did not have his own company, nor did he need to deliberately reveal his whereabouts to the outside world for the sake of hype. He did not notify his classmates in Beijing and just casually flew back to Beijing in economy class.

Therefore, Suning does not need to wrap himself up like a "dumpling" and disgust others and himself in the way of covering his ears and stealing the bell. Suning just blends in with ordinary passengers and is leisurely like an ordinary amateur.

Although today's fans are not as crazy as those in later generations, some of them still like to hang out in major international airports, waiting for their idols.

"Hey! Look, is that stupid fat guy Suning?" A girl looked at an "ordinary" looking man with shining eyes.

"Huh? No way! Could Suning be that fat?

Didn’t the newspaper say that he had successfully lost weight?
But do you think this person can be considered successful in losing weight?
And look at this person, how does she look like a celebrity?" He looked in the direction of the girl's finger and immediately said nonchalantly.

“That’s right too!
If he is a star, I can be a star too!
Besides, Suning is an internationally renowned director, so he should at least wrap himself up like a dumpling!

And with so many security guards and assistants accompanying her, it's impossible for her to show up at the airport leisurely!" Hearing her companion's doubts and rebuttals, the girl also thought she had recognized the wrong person.

When Suning reached the exit, he saw some children and reporters waiting there who looked like fans. Suning asked other passengers around him in confusion, "Friend, let me ask you something!
Which big star is being received by fans? "

"Huh? Looks like a singer, director or something!

His name is Su What, and the movies he shot have won many awards!"

"Oh? That's amazing!"

"Oh! It's amazing!

Because he has so many fans waiting at the airport every day, it really has a bad influence!"

"Huh? I don't think they are real fans!
I suspect they wouldn't even recognize the person they're waiting for, even if he were standing right in front of them!"

"Oh no!"

"Haha, I'm talking about the difference between celebrities before and after makeup!"

"Yeah! That's true!"

Turning around and looking at the "fans" who were still searching carefully there, Suning shook his head helplessly. He had an ordinary face, and it seemed that he really was not destined to be a star!

Suning guessed that these so-called fans had spontaneously looked up information about the Goya Awards and knew that the Goya Awards would end in the next few days, and then they were waiting for Suning at the airport exit. It was just very embarrassing that Suning was standing in front of them, and reporters and fans were unwilling to believe that Suning was really Suning.

He took a taxi directly back to his residence, but saw many reporters waiting at the gate of the community. This surprised Suning a little, after all, very few people knew his address.

"Hey! These reporters are like flies!
It seems like some big shot is living in this neighborhood again! "The driver was also an old Beijinger, so he wasn't surprised.

"Haha, look at this noisy scene!

I'd better stay in a hotel today!
Master, please take me to the Jingcheng Hotel."

"Hey! What's going on?

It's not necessarily a good thing if a famous star lives in someone's neighborhood!" The driver thought Suning was annoyed by the noise from the reporters.

After arriving at the Beijing Hotel and settling in, Suning first called Zhu Yawen, Huang Lei and others, and then made an appointment for dinner in the evening. He took a nice bath and fell into a deep sleep. Only then did he feel that the jet lag was much better.

He slept until dark, and when he looked at the time, it was already the appointed time. So he got up, found some casual clothes and went downstairs. As soon as he arrived at the lobby of the Beijing Hotel, he saw Huang Lei, Zhu Yawen and the other three already waiting there.

"Haha, Brother Lei, you're already here!"

"Suning, we just arrived too!

Why don't you go back to your own home and have to go to a hotel to get a room?"

"There are so many reporters gathered at the entrance of the community. I don't want to be disturbed by them!"

"Suning, this is not right!
Since you have chosen to enter this world of fame and fortune, you must adapt to its particularities!"

"Brother Lei, I know everything you said!
But I really don’t want to force myself to do things I don’t like!
Besides, I just want to be a hen that lays eggs peacefully, as long as everyone likes to eat eggs!
As for me, a hen, I don't need to be disturbed by the outside world!"

"Haha, Suning, your idea has a bit of Qian Zhongshu's flavor!"

"Haha, Brother Lei, stop flattering me!

I'm starving!

Let’s go to the restaurant and have dinner!”

"Alright! I've always heard that the food at the Capital Hotel is delicious, so today is a good opportunity for me to try it thanks to you!"

The five of them came to the restaurant of the Capital Hotel, chatting and laughing. Just after they ordered the food, Su Ning saw that Lu Fangsheng looked worried.

"Lu Fangsheng, is there something wrong with you?
Why do I see you look so distracted? "

"Suning, several film crews have recently invited me to audition!" Lu Fangsheng looked at the puzzled Suning with some embarrassment.

"Huh? That's a good thing!

But why do you look so worried?"

"Suning, do you also support me to go out and take on acting roles?" Lu Fangsheng was surprised.

"Haha, of course!
We are all good brothers.

If you guys become successful, it will be good for me too!"

"Suning, Lu Fangsheng means to focus on you first!" Seeing that Suning did not understand Lu Fangsheng's concerns, Zhu Yawen on the side helped to explain.

"Uh? My side?

Oh! So that's how it is!

I won’t start filming a new drama for the time being!

Although this first shoot was quite fruitful, I still discovered many shortcomings!
So I'm ready to calm down and continue to settle down!"

"Suning, I didn't expect you to be so clear-headed!
I thought you would continue to invest in new filming plans after winning four international awards! "After hearing Suning's explanation, the four of them were very surprised, even Huang Lei was surprised.

"Haha, my trip to Spain this time was really a stroke of luck!

If I hadn't met Cameron Diaz by chance, I might still have run back in disgrace!"

In the evening, Suning and his five companions had a very happy meal and a very enjoyable chat. After everyone left that night, Suning called Gao Dayuan.

"Hello! Where are you?" As soon as the call was connected, Gao Dayuan's anxious voice was heard on the other end of the phone.

"I'm in room 8808 of Beijing Hotel!" Suning smiled silently and then said his room number.

Gao Dayuan didn't ask any other questions, but understood and hung up the phone. Then Suning waited impatiently. Sure enough, half an hour later, Gao Dayuan, wrapped tightly in clothes, appeared at 8808.

In order to pass the review, the following 100,000 words are omitted
Gao Dayuan personally lit a cigarette for Suning, and only after Suning blew out a puff of smoke comfortably did Gao Dayuan smile with satisfaction.

“I’ve been wanting to go back to Beiyuan Home these past few days.

But I found that there were a large number of reporters waiting at the entrance of the community.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I have been hiding!"

"Yeah! I just returned to the neighborhood from the airport and saw the reporters waiting there!
I just ran here and booked a room!"

"Haha, Suning, you are a very popular director in China now!

I already have some regrets.

If I had known that, I would have taken on this role!

There's no need to prepare wedding clothes for Jiang Yan now!"

Su Ning found it difficult to respond to Gao Dayuan's words, so she could only smoke quietly. In fact, Gao Dayuan rejected her at the beginning mainly because he did not think highly of her abilities. In addition, the role in "Elevator" was indeed quite exciting, which made her think it was not worthwhile to contribute too much for it, so she pushed Jiang Yan out.

This made Gao Dayuan appear particularly loyal and righteous, and she also gave an explanation to Suning. It was really a good plan that killed two birds with one stone. Suning had a lot of opinions, but he had no place to express them.

Thinking of this, Suning felt a little helpless, because the two women he had come into contact with consecutively were both scheming women with deep thoughts. Although this was their own freedom, Suning still couldn't accept it.

"Yeah! There will be plenty of opportunities in the future! After all, this is just my first movie!"

"Suning, do you mean you have any filming plans in the near future?" Gao Dayuan suddenly sat up excitedly, and then a large area of white appeared in Suning's eyes.

"Filming plan? I don't have any!

I want to calm down for a while!"

"Ah? 'Elevator' has already grossed 72 million in China!
Why don’t you take advantage of the buzz and make more movies?”

"Yuanyuan, I want to take a picture too!

But I don’t have enough ability!
This time, while filming 'Elevator', I discovered a lot of my own shortcomings! "After all, she is his woman, Su Ning tried his best to explain the reason.

"Humph! I think you are just too nosy!

There are many directors out there who are of low quality.

I've never seen anyone talk about wanting to settle down all the time!" Gao Dayuan disagreed with Suning's statement.

This was the first disagreement between the two, but Suning didn't take it to heart. After all, their relationship was very strange now, and there was always a weird feeling about it.

Suning knew that Gao Dayuan was really upset. Although the movie "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" she filmed had become a hit across the country, she had also become a household name and a beautiful superstar, and was more famous than Suning.

But when Gao Dayuan thought about how she had missed out on a film that had won four international awards, she felt like her heart was bleeding and she wanted to buy a piece of tofu and commit suicide immediately.

In fact, this is also the general mentality of celebrities in the entertainment industry. The big screen is always the goal that most of them pursue. It is possible that they would rather choose to shoot a movie than accept a TV drama notice, but in reality, this choice is often not in their own hands.

Although Suning has always been a warm-hearted man, he had no good solution for the regretful Gao Dayuan. Anyway, he couldn't deliberately and hastily start a new drama just to make a beautiful woman smile.

Regardless of whether she had the funds or not, she would never indulge the other party like this. Soon Gao Dayuan saw that Suning had no response, and realized that she was too impatient just now, and then she stopped arguing about it, but this matter was still deeply buried in her heart.

The next day, Suning returned to Beijing Film Academy to continue his studies, but he could easily notice that other people's attitudes towards him had changed a lot. He was no longer the fat boy who was "hated by everyone".

Suning inexplicably remembered a sentence Huang Bo said in the original time and space: When you become famous, everyone around you will become a good person.

The situation he is facing now perfectly illustrates this sentence, but Suning is not a cynical "angry young man" and does not have much aversion to the hypocrisy of the entertainment industry.

"Brother Bo, what are you doing sneaking around?"

"Huh? Suning, you're back!

I'm just about to go to the cafeteria to eat!"

"Oh! I'm hungry too!
Then let’s go together!”

Because Huang Bo is also a classmate of Beijing Film Academy in 02, although he is only a vocational student majoring in dubbing, the two of them have a very good relationship because they are both from Qingdao, Shandong.

"Brother Bo, why do I feel like you're going to run away after seeing me?
"Did you do something bad again?" Suning couldn't possibly not understand Huang Bo's mentality at the moment, so he deliberately smiled and joked.

"Hey! You're already an internationally renowned director!
I don’t need to go up there anymore!”

“Haha, have you ever seen an international director as weak as me?

Besides, we are from the same hometown of Qingdao, you can't be too realistic! "

"Tsk! You're a serious college student!

Now he has become a new director who has won international awards!

I'm just a student in the vocational class of Beijing Film Academy, how can I compare with you! "

Su Ning pretended to be angry and hugged Huang Bo's neck, saying angrily, "Brother Bo, your sour tone is wrong!"

"Suning, I don't mean anything else!
I just feel like the gap between us brothers is getting bigger and bigger! "How could he not feel Suning's sincerity? Huang Bo still explained with a wry smile.

"Brother Bo, you said it too!

We are brothers!
Is it necessary to make such a clear distinction between brothers?

Is it necessary to engage in such boring comparisons?" Suning shook his head helplessly.

"This"

"Now that I'm actually doing a little better, you're deliberately distancing yourself from me!

If you become the best actor one day, will you be too lazy to even look at me?"

"Huh? How is that possible!

I, Huang Bo, am not that kind of person!"

“That’s it!

I, Suning, am not a mean person who flatters the powerful and looks down on the weak!

No! You insulted me today!

You have to treat me to a meal!"

"Huh? You're not losing weight!"

"Why are you still trying to lose weight? I'll eat you first!"

“Haha, sure!

I'll treat you, you pay!
Now everyone in Beijing Film Academy knows that you, Suning, are rich! "

"Hmph! No way!

You are the one who made the mistake today!

I won't let you go easily!

Don’t cry poor to me, I know you used to be in a band!

If you really have no money to spend, I will give you a guitar and let you go out to the square to sing!"

"Ah? Suning, so you are so cruel!"

In fact, when having dinner at the Beijing Hotel last night, Suning noticed the awkwardness in the conversation between Zhu Yawen and the others. He suddenly became cautious and no longer had the freedom as before.

As for Huang Bo, whom I met at the Beijing Film Academy today, he also had this complicated mentality. You know, Huang Bo has always been a clear-headed person, and Suning certainly doesn't want to be excluded by his former good friend.

"Suning, Mr. Wang from Huayi just called me. He wants to invite you to be a director at Huayi!" Professor Zhou from the Directing Department of Beijing Film Academy looked at Suning in front of him and explained with some pride.

"Professor Zhou, this time filming 'Elevator' made me realize many of my own shortcomings!

Therefore, my next focus will return to school studies.

As for Huayi’s invitation, I can only decline it politely!"

"Yeah! That's fine too!
After all, you are just a freshman now.

I believe you also know that the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!

Don’t worry about Huayi!

I will help you turn it down!"

Suning knew that Professor Zhou didn't want to offend the Wang brothers of Huayi for no reason, so he was willing to directly reject their invitation on Suning's behalf, which invisibly saved Suning a lot of trouble.

In the past, Professor Zhou seldom paid attention to Su Ning in front of him. There were too many students in Beijing Film Academy. Although Su Ning's grades were always among the best, it was difficult for him to focus too much on Su Ning alone.

But now, Suning suddenly became famous, and coupled with the first formal conversation between the teacher and the student today, Professor Zhou was really satisfied with this student, and began to really take Su Ning seriously.

After all, it is easy for a person to achieve success, but being able to maintain his original intention and composure after success is a very rare quality.
