Chapter 133 Missed Opportunity
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Qian's expression changed, and he said with an unhappy look: "Isn't it just jumping from a two-story building? This is a piece of cake for me, how could I fail?
?”
"Master Shi, what you said is absolutely true. As long as you are here, nothing will happen to him without him."
The assistant director hurriedly spoke in a smooth tone. Even if he didn't like Shi Qian, for Lu Hao's sake, Shi Qian still couldn't offend him.
This time, Shi Qian smiled happily.
Zhang Fan was also delighted because he had long disliked Jiang Xiaoxuan.
If the latter could rise to prominence, wouldn't it be a blow to him?
Then his girlfriend Bai Li will look down on him even more.
Only Liu Jingyue sighed secretly, finally having such a chance.
Liu Jingyue couldn't help but feel sorry for Jiang Xiaoxuan because he missed the opportunity.
"The scene of being chased by an enemy and being cornered has a more tragic feel when shot in the rain. I think the effect will be better. What do you think, Lu Hao?"
Lu Hao was slightly startled. In the past, when he was filming under a well-known director, it was other directors who had the final say on how the film should be shot.
He didn't even have the capital to discuss the plot, and this was the first time a director discussed with him how to film.
This made Lu Hao feel a little flattered. She had never dared to think about this kind of treatment before!
After a moment of silence, Lu Hao said seriously: "Assistant Director Tu, you have more experience than me, so you have the final say."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Hao tilted his head slightly and fixed his gaze on Shi Qian, "Master Shi, you will be my stand-in. We originally planned to start filming tomorrow."
"But tomorrow the wind will be light and the clouds will be light, and the sun will be bright, so we won't be able to capture that tragic and heavy effect."
"If you shoot on a rainy day, the effect will be much better, but it will be a big challenge for you. Master Shi, are you sure?"
"I'm quite confident."
Shi Qian spoke in an understatement, but everyone could tell that his tone was no longer confident.
In fact, this was indeed the case. On a sunny day, he believed that he would not miss even if he closed his eyes.
It was his first time to jump from a tall building several meters high on a rainy day.
The floor was slippery on a rainy day. Even standing on the edge of the floor, I felt a little unsteady, let alone jumping.
If the rain is accompanied by wind, the body's balance will be even more difficult to control.
This is the reason why Shi Qian lacks confidence, but he has already agreed, even if there is danger, he has to bite the bullet.
Next, Shi Qian stayed to discuss signing the contract, and no one else had anything to do.
Liu Jingyue walked out of the assistant director's office with Jiang Xiaoxuan. This time, Liu Jingyue was also lucky enough to play a female supporting role and had a few lines, which made her feel extremely happy.
Liu Jingyue comforted him and said: "Xiao Xuan, it's not your turn this time, but you will have a chance next time. As long as it is gold, it will shine."
"I'm optimistic about you. One day, you will become famous."
"Look at Lu Hao. Just like you and me, we were just a small sidekick. After staying in obscurity for many years, we finally rose to prominence."
Jiang Xiaoxuan didn't say anything when he heard this, he just smiled shyly.
This made Liu Jingyue feel a little surprised. Logically speaking, she should be depressed after receiving such a big blow, but Jiang Xiaoxuan could still laugh.
While Liu Jingyue was stunned, Jiang Xiaoxuan walked away.
After leaving the film and television city and walking forward for a while, Jiang Xiaoxuan subconsciously slowed down when passing by a low-rise building.
Compared with the prosperity of the film and television city, this is a different world.
The low-rise houses in this area are all old houses from more than ten years ago. Most of them are one-story bungalows, and the tallest ones are two-story houses.
It is also in a dilapidated state, and there is even a big word "DEMOIL" written on the wall.
This area is commonly known as the slums by city residents.
Most of the people living here are migrant workers with poor conditions and migrant workers in the city. My second uncle's home is here.
The family has been working hard in the city for several years.
Because brothers Jiang Chen and Jiang Hu were studying in the past few years, the family had a lot of expenses.
Even though the second uncle is hard-working and works as a plasterer with a relatively high salary, he can't save much money throughout the year. His family still cannot afford to buy a house, and the family still rents in a slum area.
As Jiang Xiaoxuan walked along this slum area, when he was almost at the end, he saw many people gathered around the door of the house in front of him.
Through the swaying crowd, he saw a few familiar figures, and suddenly they were his cousin Jiang Chen, his younger brother Jiang Hu, his second aunt and Cheng Qian.
The sounds of talking and quarreling came out, and it was obvious that something had happened. Jiang Xiaoxuan quickened his pace and walked over.
Then, he squeezed in like a thread, and saw his cousin Jiang Chen and his second aunt with sad faces.
Cheng Qian stood aside with a sad expression on her face. In front of her stood two middle-aged men and women.
At this moment, the middle-aged woman was scolding Cheng Qian: "Qian'er, come back with me quickly, and don't associate with him in the future."
"Mom, you go back first. I have something else to do. I will go back after I finish it."
Cheng Qian stood stubbornly motionless. Cheng's mother's cheeks suddenly changed color when she heard this, and her eyes widened, "You...you kid, why don't you listen to my advice?"
If you don’t want to go back, do you still want to be with this poor boy?”
"Mom, what's wrong with Brother Jiang Chen? Why do you oppose our marriage?"
After listening to her daughter's words, Cheng's mother turned pale with anger. She scolded: "Okay? What's so good about him?"
"If you want money but don't have money, if you want a house but don't have a house, what can he give you to make you happy?"
"Qian'er, it's not like I'm a heartless mother. Look at his house. It's a low-rise bungalow. It can't shelter from the wind and rain in winter, and it can't block the sun in summer."
"You can't even come up with a bride price of 80,000 yuan, and you still have to bargain. You can't afford a house. Are you going to live in such a shabby old building after getting married?"
"Qian'er, you are the apple of my mother's eye, how could I just watch you suffer."
As soon as Cheng's mother finished speaking, Cheng's father continued to comfort him: "Qian'er, you should also understand your mother's good intentions. How many mothers in the world don't want to see their daughters have no worries about food and clothing?
Live a wonderful life!"
When these words reached Cheng Qian's ears, her face was filled with sadness, and sparkling tears flashed in her bright eyes.
If she hadn't raised her head slightly, tears would have rolled out of her eyes.
She bit her lower lip hard with her silver teeth, almost bleeding.
After hearing what her parents said, Cheng Qian was so aggrieved that she almost cried, but she held it back forcefully.
Cheng Qian only felt that she was isolated and helpless, as if she was facing an entire indifferent world.
She didn't speak for a while, until she took a long breath, Cheng Qian said faintly: "Mom, no matter what you say, I will never marry anyone other than Brother Jiang Chen in this life. I will be his when I am born, and I will be his when I die."
