father-in-law of the nation

Chapter 530 Does He Have That Much Face?
Wang Shen took the mobile phone, opened the address book, found a number that he didn't contact often, paused, and dialed it immediately.

Although I don't communicate often, I have condolences every year.

This is because the other party is one of Wang Shen's rare friends after entering society.

However, as each of them started a family and set up a business to make a living, each had their own things to do, and they didn't live in the same city, so they gradually seldom contacted each other, and only kept the condolences that everyone understands.

After all, not everyone is always single like Wen Wanshu. Apart from some pressure at work, they live a comfortable life.

As for Wang Shen's male friend, what should he say?

Wang Shen can understand why the other party is unwilling to contact frequently.

It was not because Wang Shen offended someone and was excluded from the entertainment industry, but because of face.

It was because the other party couldn't save face, so I didn't want to contact my former friend just now.

Wang Shen's friend, not to mention that he doesn't get in touch with Wang Shen very much, even other friends don't get in touch very much.

What is the reason?
A sigh.

Wang Shen's friend is Xu Liang, who is two years older than Wang Shen.

Moreover, Wang Shen clearly remembered that when Xu Liang got married, the media spread overwhelming news about toads eating swan meat.

That's right, whether it is now or before, Xu Liang has always been an actor with little reputation.

However, his marriage partner is Liu Lu, a glamorous first-line star.

In addition, Xu Liang, like Wang Shen, was born in Weimo, and has always been a low-level actor, so of course he is not rich.

Therefore, at that time, all kinds of hot entries that ridiculed and ridiculed occupied the entire entertainment news section.

Who would have thought that Liu Lu, a popular first-line star, would be married by dick Xu Liang?

Why is he?
How can you?

One can imagine how much pressure Xu Liang felt as a man!
At that time, Xu Liang pretended to be dead and did not respond.

Wang Shen guessed that Xu Liang should be patient and respond to these when he wants to stand out.

But after a few years, not only did he fail to make his mark, he was also labeled as a soft eater.
It is acceptable to be ridiculed by one or two people for eating soft rice, but it is very uncomfortable to be regarded as eating soft rice by the entire entertainment circle and everyone in the country.

Therefore, Wang Shen can probably understand that it was for this reason that Xu Liang began to seldom contact his friends around him. After all, in such a situation, he could no longer hold his head up in the surrounding area.

To be honest, as Xu Liang's friend, Wang Shen was also confused when Xu Liang and Liu Lu suddenly came together.

This is because, since then, there have been no signs, as if it was a flash marriage.

However, in the entertainment industry, there is obviously no such thing as a flash marriage.

And the two of them are one in the sky and the other in the ground, as reported by the media, the toad eats swan meat.
This.
Of course, Liu Lu, a first-line female star, also had a lot of scandals before she became a first-line actress.

All in all, when Xu Liang and Liu Lu come together, it may really be a fateful encounter, the legendary true love.

"Why did you call?" When the phone was connected, Xu Liang's voice sounded, and he asked straight to the point.

Although the two have had very little contact in recent years, they were good friends before, so Wang Shen didn't beat around the bush and said, "You're recording a program in Jianghai, right? I'll go over to help you support the scene tomorrow."

There was a short silence, and then Xu Liang's voice sounded again, "Thank you!"

Wang Shen knew that with Xu Liang's strong character, if he had put it in the past, he would definitely have refused, but now, a simple thank you is completely helpless.

"Well, I will come to your place tomorrow afternoon. I still have something to do, so I won't say more." Wang Shen replied.

"You are busy. Goodbye!" Xu Liang replied.

call ended.

There is no false politeness, there is something to talk about, that's all.

Standing behind Wang Shen, Cheng Lu saw everything in her eyes, so she asked aloud, "Mr. Wang, should we contact the program team in advance?"

"No need!" Hearing the words, Wang Shen responded lightly, turned on the computer, and watched a variety show.

A variety show called "My Favorite Women".

Moreover, this is a program to observe how men handle the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and build a harmonious family.

All in all, the show will invite four brave husbands to spend three weeks of precious time living together with the two women (mother and wife) he loves the most in his life.The program will truly record the living conditions, family relationships, and ways of getting along with the four groups of families. Through the real records and observations of the daily life of different families, the audience will be inspired to think about marriage, family affection, and intergenerational communication. Social positive energy.

At the same time, this is also a variety show produced by Shonan TV, but considering various issues such as the itinerary of several groups of guests, the recording venue was put in Jianghai.

Besides, Jianghai, as an international metropolis, already has many variety shows that set up their recording venues here.

Having said that, although this is a program that theoretically spreads positive energy, the actual situation exposes many things.

For example, Xu Liang's living conditions can be judged through the program. He has no family status, and even his mother has to watch his daughter-in-law's face from time to time.

This also proves from the side that it is not so delicious for toads to eat swan meat.

Not to mention, the four groups of celebrity guests, each group of guests will invite some well-known stars in the entertainment circle to show off their social circle.

Of course, Liu Lu also invited famous friends in her circle, but this made Xu Liang even more embarrassed.

Because from the beginning to the end, only Xu Liang, a big man, did not invite his friends to come.

However, it doesn't matter.

Because everyone directly ignored Xu Liang.

After all, who doesn't know that Xu Liang is just an unpopular young artist, and the friends he contacts are of course young actors who can't make it to the stage. Shonan TV would not be willing to invite such young actors.

Besides, if Liu Lu didn't exist, who would know Xu Liang?
Although I don't want to admit it, it's so true.

……

Wang Shen roughly watched a few episodes of the program by fast-forwarding, and in a blink of an eye, he understood what he had seen on the entertainment news before.

I have to sigh, sometimes, it is really important to be right.

Xu Liang, for example, is not only looked down upon and despised for his soft food outside, but also has no status inside.

Wang Shen sighed when he thought that Xu Liang was once a very face-saving and self-respecting person.

And Wang Shen has another layer of feeling, that is, this program tells all the audience through the interaction between the four groups of star guest families that marriage is a major event in a lifetime, and how important it is to find a wife who is a good wife and a good mother .
No matter what this program is advocating, on the contrary, Wang Shen feels this way.

In fact, Wang Shen was willing to take the initiative to help Xu Liang increase his reputation, not only because the two parties were friends, but also mixed with a trace of sympathy for both men.

In short, it can be summarized in one sentence, life is not easy.

The next day, at the recording venue of "My Favorite Women", because it was recording a program, it was impossible to leave a bad impression in front of the audience, so the family got up early.

A few of them were the first to light up, and after getting up, they consciously went to buy breakfast and pack it back.

The family was sitting in the living room eating breakfast by themselves. Xu Liang secretly glanced at Liu Lu. After thinking for a long time, he finally had the courage to say, "Lulu, can you give me 100 yuan?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Liang's mother He Mengyun subconsciously looked up at him, and then focused her gaze on Liu Lu.

When Liu Lu heard the words, she stared and said, "The program team gave us a total of 200 yuan for a day, and we all have to go out for a stroll later, how can we give you half of the money?"

There was another woman sitting next to Liu Lu, who was Liu Lu's good friend and veteran first-line female artist Lin Yiling.

Lin Yiling came over yesterday afternoon, and will leave after recording today's itinerary.

Moreover, Liu Lu did not tell Xu Liang about Lin Yiling's coming, and Xu Liang received Wang Shen's call before Lin Yiling came.

Therefore, it became the situation at hand.

Seeing this, Xu Liang gritted his teeth and continued, "I have a friend over, and I plan to cook a light meal for him at home."

In fact, Xu Liang also wanted to take Wang Shen out to have a meal, but the program team only gave a total of two hundred yuan a day, so the idea of ​​having a meal was unrealistic.

"You have friends coming, so don't I have friends? Isn't sister Yiling my friend? You know that sister Yiling is here, why don't you just ask your friend to come again next time?" Liu Lu said angrily.

Liu Lu's position is obvious. Her good friend, who is also a well-known first-line artist in the entertainment industry, came all the way to stand for her on the show, but ended up accommodating others. How is this possible?

Furthermore, Liu Lu had arranged her itinerary last night and planned to take Lin Yiling out for a stroll, so 200 yuan could only be used to buy some cheap things, so how could there be any extra money to share with Xu Liang?

Therefore, when Liu Lu thought about it, Xu Liang was just looking for trouble and sincerely embarrassing her in front of her friends.

Moreover, in Liu Lu's mind, is Xu Liang's friend as important as Lin Yiling?

Veteran first-line star, has a big status in the circle.

Let me ask, if such a big name comes to be a guest at home, is it necessary to neglect him?

Therefore, Liu Lu subconsciously ignored Xu Liang's friend, and did not think that Xu Liang's friend was on the stage.

In other words, how could it be possible to neglect a big-name friend with status and status for the sake of someone who can't get on the stage?
"Then, is 50 yuan okay?" Xu Liang said for a while, in order not to embarrass the audience, he didn't explain much, but continued to discuss and ask.

"No!" Liu Lu straightened her face, refused directly, and then said, "And we will go out together later, so you call your friend and ask him to come again next time,"

After finishing speaking, the tone eased, and continued: "I am not the kind of unreasonable and unreasonable person, but sister Yiling came all the way here today, and she also arranged the itinerary, but on the way you said that your friend It’s coming again, what do you think this is? Besides, I also said, today, we will finish the scheduled itinerary properly, and let your friends come over next time? Do you want us to suddenly come here for your name? Changing the itinerary because of a friend who came over? Does he have such a big face?"

To be honest, Liu Lu was indeed a little angry, because Xu Liang's words made her lose face in front of her friend Lin Yiling.

In particular, there is a layer of meaning revealed in these words, which will make people mistakenly think that Lin Yiling has no cards.

This is a behavior that doesn't care about her friend at all.

Of course, this is just Liu Lu's own subjective feeling, but she didn't try to understand why Xu Liang asked such a question suddenly, nor did she think about the problem from Xu Liang's position, nor did she intend to measure Xu Liang in the slightest.

In the eyes of outsiders, this family is dominated by Liu Lu with her own will, and there is no room for negotiation.

For example, Xu Liang's several voices were all in a negotiating tone, but Liu Lu didn't mean to ask the specific reason at all. She only followed her own ideas, and Xu Liang had to agree with her ideas unconditionally.

In short, an episode that couldn't be more simple and ordinary, but it shows a situation that Xu Liang has no family status.

That being the case, does anyone sympathize with Xu Liang?

not at all!
Because in the eyes of many people, Xu Liang is a toad who ate swan meat, Xu Liang is not good enough for Liu Lu, and being able to marry Liu Lu is already a blessing he has cultivated all his life, and he has no qualifications to ask for anything else.

That is to say, if Xu Liang acts in a way that does not "understand" Liu Lu's feelings, he is equivalent to a scumbag, a scumbag who was born in a blessing and does not know his blessing.

In other words, Xu Liang is not qualified to make other demands.

Furthermore, according to the rumors from the media, the house Xu Liang lived in, the luxury car he drove, and other things were all spent on Liu Lu's money, so he was labeled as a soft rice man from the beginning to the end.

And people with this label will make many people underestimate them subconsciously.

Xu Liang, for example, has always been underestimated.

In fact, Xu Liang did plan to reveal that his friend was Wang Shen, but Liu Lu's words made him scrupled.

Xu Liang was not stupid. If he revealed the identity of his friend at this time, he would be slapping Liu Lu and Lin Yiling in the face in front of the camera.

Such actions are like stepping on a thunderstorm and looking for death.

Therefore, I wanted to say it several times, but in the end I didn't say it.

In short, at this moment, it must not be said.

Just when the atmosphere was a little awkward, there was a knock on the door.

Xu Liang got up and walked over to open the door. Seeing some members of other groups of guests, he invited them in.

After a brief greeting, he expressed his intention.

"Lulu, it's like this. We came here to say that since each group of guests has guests, how about we combine the money given by the program group to buy ingredients to make a meal, and then get together for dinner. From time to time, I can also make some games, such as truth or dare, etc." An artist with the same status as Liu Lu said aloud.

Liu Lu was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and then thought of the words "Truth or Dare", she had a clear understanding, and immediately smiled and asked: "I think it was suggested by the program team?"

Zhao Xinyue smiled and said: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. It was indeed proposed by the program group, saying it was for the effect of the program. And our three groups of families have already agreed, and you are the only one left."

Liu Lu listened and looked at Lin Yiling.

Obviously, Lin Yiling is also very emotionally intelligent, and she would not refuse under such circumstances, so she echoed with a smile: "It sounds interesting, and the program team will play it."

Therefore, Liu Lu also smiled and said, "OK, let's have a big family dinner today, and make enough food and clothing by ourselves."

In this way, a small episode changed the itinerary that Liu Lu had arranged before.

As for whether to ask Xu Liang's opinion during this process, it is not important, because all things are decided by Liu Lu.
