19. Back to Beijing (for the sky blue and other misty rains
It was less than three months since I left the imperial capital, and it was almost May when I returned to the imperial capital, more than a month earlier than June as originally expected.
Along the way, Xia Yu wore a mask and sunglasses. She was more cautious than when she was most popular, and she was fully armed.
After getting off the plane, he pushed his luggage and walked quickly through the terminal. It wasn't until a huge poster came into view that Xia Yu suddenly stopped and slowed down.
Xia Yu's eyes immediately focused on the actress in the black and white poster. She was sitting quietly at the table, her slender palm supporting her delicate chin, and her classic straight short hair, showing her coolness and elegance.
The actress's name instantly lingered in Xia Yu's mind.
Senior sister Cheng Yun.
The second glance was the watch she was wearing——
donner(Donner).
One of the top ten famous watches in the world.
Cheng Yun is donner’s latest Asian spokesperson and the only oriental face among donner’s global spokespersons.
This was the endorsement that Tao Tang had been fighting for for Cheng Yun, but because of another big star in Shengtang Film and Television, he had never been able to officially sign it. Unexpectedly, he got it within a few days of joining the new company.
You must know that a spokesperson is not a brand ambassador, but a close friend of the brand.
This endorsement is undoubtedly a monumental step for Cheng Yun who has just stepped into the fashion industry!
Knowing that Xia Yu had finalized the project in advance, Tao Tang booked a flight for her, confirmed the time, and came to the airport early to wait.
Waiting for the tightly wrapped Xia Yu to come out, she immediately recognized Tao Tang, who was also wearing a mask and wearing sunglasses as tall as her. The latter took the cat carrier with one hand and looked at the slightly fatter one.
Yuan Bao stretched out his hand to tease the little guy, and the little guy hissed and bared his teeth.
"You little heartless thing, you are so cruel!"
He turned around and said with a smile: "I have been tired for more than a month. I can take a good rest for two days after returning from this trip."
Don't you have to take a good rest?
This incident broke out again, and the contract with Shengtang was terminated. Even if Tao Tang gets the resources, he is afraid that it will be almost useless.
Without thinking, I just got into the little Chery that Tao Tang got from somewhere, fastened my seat belt, and heard her say, "Two days off, there will be an audition in the afternoon the day after tomorrow, a new movie directed by Zhao Qianxin, a spy movie, a third female
No., the chance is not very great, but I still go and have a look and try for it.”
Tao Tang said it casually. Xia Yu guessed that in order to get the chance to audition for the role, which was almost impossible to get, she had to face a lot of eye-rolls and ridicule behind her back, and how many relationships she had lost. The so-called "little chance" was just a self-comfort.
words.
However, even if he knew the result, Xia Yu nodded, "I listen to Sister Tang."
On the way, the two of them talked about Xia Yu's work on the set these days. There are some things that actors need to discuss with their agents, such as their interpersonal relationships on the set. If they get along well, they may become resources in the future.
Not good, let’s talk about it another time.
Most of the people mentioned were director Chi Chong and martial arts instructor Liang Quanzhen. Not to mention their lack of resources here, these two people are owed favors and need to be remembered. Cheng Zhiqing was also mentioned in the end. However,
Xia Yu didn't say those words.
"Teacher Cheng Zhiqing?"
This person is nearly fifty years old. He has good acting and good reviews. He has been tepid for more than 20 years. Until he won awards for several works in the past few years, he is a representative of a late bloomer. In the past two years, he has taken a back seat.
Second tier, but in this three-acre field of drama, she has quite a status.
He turned around and told Tao Tang about Meng Dong, "The little girl has good working ability, is very down-to-earth, and has a good mouth."
Tao Tang nodded, "Well, OK, then I don't have to worry about helping you find her, but I will definitely have to train her as an assistant by then."
Xia Yu didn't mention Cheng Yun's new endorsement. To be an agent, one must have both ears and eyesight. He must have known about it a long time ago.
After returning from a few games in the capital, I took a detour and had lunch. It was already past six in the afternoon when I returned to the new residence arranged by Tao Tang.
The new residence is outside the third ring road. It is a small courtyard house. It is not obvious in an alley, but the inside has been renovated and it is quite artistic. The yard is not big. I have planted some flowers and plants, and made a pottery jar.
On the lotus leaves that have just sprouted, I can’t tell what species they are.
There are also two jujube trees.
The top writer of the Republic of China, who owned one hundred and eighty vests, described in "Autumn Night" that there are two jujube trees outside the wall, one is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree, but
Not outside the wall, but in the courtyard.
There are two rooms on the east and one on the west, with a hall and a kitchen and bathroom in the middle. Although the area is not large, in the imperial capital where land is at a premium, this courtyard house is probably more than the total salary she earned in the previous two years.
Seeing Xia Yu's surprised look, Tao Tang looked helpless, "After I terminated the contract with the company, I had no place to live, so I had to find someone to borrow this house. But the rent is quite reasonable, six thousand a month, three thousand for you and three for me."
Qian, I have already recorded this amount in your account book."
Xia Yu looked like he was picking up a bargain, and said with a smile, "Six thousand? It's more than fair. In the imperial capital, this house, the location, and the decoration are equivalent to a jump price, right? Why don't you discuss with the owner of the household whether you can buy it out, and we'll give it to you
He rents it for thirty to fifty years?"
"Small sample!" Tao Tang patted Xia Yu's face to wake her up and poured her a glass of water. "I thought you would find it too expensive. You little girl has become completely sensible after you wake up. Apart from food, there is nothing else
I wish I could break one dollar into two and spend it quickly.”
Xia Yu took a sip and didn't bother to pack her luggage. She leaned on the wicker chair and said, "Why, Sister Tang is still worried that I want to live in the basement? It's not safe. Isn't there nothing I can do about it? Who says debts can't weigh you down?
I don’t want to pay them back, so I’m so embarrassed.”
There were some things that Tao Tang had to say before she had organized them. Xia Yu was very sensible and didn't ask in detail. Now that Tao Tang was her boss, she could just listen to whatever the boss arranged.
The east room where Tao Tang lives and the west room where Xia Yu lives have obviously been tidied up and very clean. Xia Yu's luggage that he left in the company dormitory has also been packed and he is waiting for Xia Yu to come back and pack it himself.
After tidying up the house and making room for Yuanbao, it was already after eight o'clock. After eating and drinking, the little guy ran to the wicker chair in the yard and stared.
The two of them had a simple dinner, eating leftovers from lunch.
"In this situation, every meal you can save is worth it!"
This is Tao Tang's original joke, and it is also Xia Yu's heartfelt voice.
After eating and drinking, the two of them collapsed on the sofa and chatted. In the days from going to Huliang to when Xia Yu just returned to the imperial capital, Tao Tang endured it again and again.
Until just now in the car, Tao Tang finally couldn't hold back and smoked his first cigarette in front of Xia Yu.
The two of them are tied together now and will definitely continue to cooperate in the future. This kind of thing can be avoided even if it is avoided for fifteen years, so there is no need to hide it.
Xia Yu didn't think that women couldn't smoke, but he still asked, "When did Sister Tang start smoking?"
"Hey!"
Tao Tang finished smoking one cigarette and threw the cigarette butt into the mineral water bottle with a small section left, his eyes a little vacant.
She thought for a moment and said, "I forgot the specifics. It was probably during the time you were undergoing psychotherapy."
Xia Yu blew a puff of smoke that just floated up, pondered for a moment, and joked, "It will be a little later than I expected."
Both of them have a secret.
Xia Yu couldn't say it, and Tao Tang didn't dare to say it, unless she waited until the day she died.
Because Xia Yu had been tired for a day and it was her menstrual period, Tao Tang asked her to rest after a short chat.
It was said that he was resting, but in fact, as soon as he woke up, Xia Yu devoted himself to his career again.
Even Tao Tang doesn't have much hope for the new drama, he just wants Xia Yu to show his face again.
