At the end of February, colleges and universities start school.
In the evening, in a small restaurant near Beijing University of Science and Technology, Zhang Yin and Dai Hanhan were reminiscing about the past.
"Let me tell you, the pressure cooker is really in Maiwo. I just added a classmate yesterday. I chatted with her on QQ for a while. She is doing well and has a boyfriend."
"Really, when she said she was leaving, I thought I wouldn't see her anymore, but I didn't expect that she was also lurking."
"And so and so, the boy you blocked was also added. Hehe, you were not online at the time, so you asked me. I said you have a boyfriend, he is tall and handsome, just like Li Ming."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Zhang Yin was annoyed and said: "He is much more handsome than Li Ming."
"Yin Yin!"
Dai Hanhan opened her eyes wide, as if she had seen something incredible, and said: "You were not like this before, you are vulgar and superficial now, and you only care about the skin of men!"
"..."
Zhang Yin didn't want to answer the conversation, so she took out the disposable chopsticks and separated them, and took a sip of the dry stir-fried beans that had just been served: "Well, I don't want to do anything else during the holiday, I just want this. Nothing is as authentic as what is made here."
"Hey, wait a minute!"
Dai Hanhan interrupted her picking up the food and took out her camera from her bag - today it was her turn to use it. She clicked on the food and started taking pictures.
"What are you doing?"
"It's a space to take photos and post them. My followers haven't increased for a long time, but since I posted photos, they started to increase again."
Zhang Yin had no choice but to wait for her to finish taking pictures, taking pictures of each dish, and then the whole picture, which took about ten minutes. Inexplicably, she felt the weird habit of modern people of "letting friends eat first before eating".
Dai Hanhan put away the camera and said: "You are not bad, you have hundreds of fans, and they all watch you lose weight."
"I have finished losing weight and am just over 120 pounds. There is someone who keeps commenting that I am fat. He doesn't know how tall I am..."
Zhang Yin took a bite of the dish and said, "But I think it's quite interesting. I'll continue to post it in the future."
"send what?"
"Anything can be done. Unlike you, we only give out food."
"What's wrong with the food? Food is the only thing that's popular."
The two of them had a meal and missed the taste of campus.
The tastiest and cheapest food must be near the school, the cheapest inn that doesn't require an ID card must be near the school, and the canteen with the most complete products selling condoms and dry noodles must be near the school.
After eating and going out, Zhang Yin said: "I'm going to his place and I won't go back with you."
"It's only the first day of school, are you so hungry and thirsty?"
"Don't talk nonsense. There is an event tonight. It's interesting and I want to participate."
"Hum hum!"
Dai Hanhan rolled her eyes and hummed: "Anyway, you are asking for it. I have read the newspaper. He has a fortune of hundreds of millions, he is handsome, and he is involved in the entertainment industry. Female stars don't have a thousand or even eight hundred. Don't be cheated!"
"
"oops!"
Before she was beaten to death, her short legs spread out and she ran away.
Zhang Yin was a little depressed and didn't think much about it at first, but since the financing news was made public, her mother said, and her best friend also said, "This man is too deep, I'm worried that you won't be able to grasp it."
With this mood, she silently got on a bus and arrived at the newspaper building.
It was already past the off-duty time, but the 13th floor was bustling with activity. I happened to bump into Yu Jiajia and grabbed her: "Yin Yin, you're just in time, I'll take you in."
Uh, I know the way...
Zhang Yin was forcibly brought in. There were more than a hundred people in the largest conference room, all of whom were the group's management and business backbones.
Like a pyramid scheme leader, Yao Yuan stood at the front, holding a microphone, and said: "Are there any more from the mainland? Are there any more?"
"Gong Xue! Gong Xue!"
"I already told you!"
"Hey, little Li Lin!"
"Who is Xiao Li Lin?"
""Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair" Du Bingyan!"
"Isn't that too niche?"
"Why is it so small? Have you never seen "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair"?"
"Okay, okay, let's count one first and then filter them later."
Zhang Yin sat down and found that there was a large blackboard hanging in front of her, an extra-large and long one. Yao Yuan took a piece of chalk and wrote the words "Xiao Li Lin" on it.
The blackboard is divided into three areas: Mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, South Korea and Japan
Starting from the Mainland Group, there were densely packed names of female celebrities. Yao Yuan counted them and said: "Let's start with the Mainland Group. All the famous ones are on top, 76 in total."
"The following is the Hong Kong and Taiwan team!"
Buzz!
The passion that was several times more intense than before appeared crazily. Both men and women called out for the person they wanted.
"Michelle Xue, Zhou Haimei, Wan Qiwen, Yang Christine!"
"Ye Zimei, Ye Yuqing, Li Lizhen, Shu Qi, Wen Bixia, Vivian Hsu, Weng Hong, Yang Simin, Zheng Yanli, Wu Xuewen!"
Um???
A guy who couldn't help himself attracted everyone's attention. I've been watching this movie for a long time!
The Hong Kong and Taiwan group moved very quickly, and in a blink of an eye there were 48 people gathered, most of whom were familiar to each other. Yao Yuan looked at the list and said: "The Hong Kong group has a huge advantage. The people who voted all grew up watching Hong Kong movies. They are invincible!"
"Who did the brand choose?" Yu Jiajia asked.
"this person!"
Yao Yuan drew a circle on a name, and there were "eh" sounds underneath.
"You deserve the title, I'm convinced!"
"The first champion can do it and convince the public!"
"Just a little bit old."
"Go away, you are still old at the age of 34? This is the most mature stage for a woman to defeat the Chinese entertainment industry."
"Yes, yes, I want to have sex with my girl..."
"Stop yelling! You can't even hear what you say."
Yu Jiajia got up and cursed, then asked: "Where's the second one?"
"Other brands are waiting and watching. They have prepared candidates. We just take this opportunity to see how popular they are. There may be more than two by then, and the top four may also have resources."
"Then at least choose one from the mainland, otherwise we won't be able to bring it to the charity night."
"Well, I think so too... Let's continue with the Japanese and Korean groups!"
This one is relatively niche. It is not as familiar to many people as it was in later generations. Only some people are shouting about it. After Yao Yuan counted it, there were only 22.
"There are 146 people in total, which is too many, 100 people are left!"
So I started deleting again, deleting the less popular and less well-known female stars. Some of them were discussed over and over again, and finally there were only 100 people left.
"..."
Zhang Yin watched it for a long time and realized what she was doing. This was an audition for the goddess Maiwo.
She was born in 1984. In terms of her movie-watching career, like most people, she also prefers the Hong Kong group, and her favorite is Vivian Chow.
This thing is called feelings in later generations, but it was not called feelings in 2004. Hong Kong and Taiwan stars were still very good at fighting.
