Chapter 25 "The Best of Us" starts airing (Part 1)
Wednesday, December 5, 2007
Zhao Xue said goodbye to her classmates, entered the lane where her home was located, greeted her neighbors, and returned to her home.
"Grandma, I'm back."
"I'm back, wash your hands and eat quickly."
Grandma Zhao's hair was gray, but she was dressed neatly. She was holding a plate of dishes in one hand and greeted her granddaughter who had just finished school to eat.
"Yeah, braised pork!"
Zhao Xue was a little surprised, and quickly washed her hands and sat down at the small dining table. The grandfather and grandson finished the meal talking and laughing.
After the meal, Zhao Xue helped her grandma clear the table and wash the dishes. Grandma Zhao told her to do her homework well, and then she went to the house next door to chat with her crutch.
Zhao Xue was the only one left at home. Zhao Xue put her homework on the sofa, then quietly turned on the TV and turned down the sound.
I took the remote control and played a few channels at random. At this point, they were basically broadcasting local news, and then I picked up the "News Lianbo" that followed.
Zhao Xue was not interested in current affairs and social news, so she finally found "Entertainment Star World" on Shanghai TV. She still preferred entertainment gossip.
Geng Geng, the heroine of Yang Rong, was the first to appear. She has short hair, a baby face, and a small stature. She mainly looks like a young and cute girl.
She is not good at studying, but she has teachers and classmates who are willing to help her. Although her parents are separated, they also care about her, keeping her in an environment that may not be so beautiful, but does not lack warmth.
"High school is the stage when everyone goes from youth to maturity. I want to use this drama to show and depict the best youth and the best of us at that time..."
When Zhao Xue saw the heroine Geng Geng in the play calling the Zhenhua elites academic masters and deriding herself as academic scum, she immediately felt the feeling of envy for good students and helplessness for not living up to her expectations.
In fact, in high school, many students feel that copying lyrics is childish, and they are no longer as enthusiastic about it as they were in junior high school.
Maybe some people are not interested in this setting, but there are also many people who love this one.
"Xueba, the overlord of learning? Xueba, the scumbag of study? Such an interesting title."
It is reported that Wei Yang is a sophomore acting student at Shanghai Opera University. During his freshman year, he combined some of his high school experiences and his own imagination to write a script, restoring the hazy and pure study life of high school students..."
Because SARS was encountered during the high school entrance examination, the difficulty of the examination was accordingly reduced. I performed exceptionally and was admitted to Zhenhua, becoming the lowest student in this key high school.
However, just when she was about to fall, Lu Xinghe, played by Wei Yang, appeared.
At 7:58, Zhao Xue, who was staring at her watch, switched the channel to the Magic City Video channel on time.
"It premieres at 8pm tonight. Do your homework quickly and watch the show later."
Different from the sunny and fresh route taken by Yu Huai, Lu Xinghe's handsomeness is the kind of unabashed publicity, unruly and cynical temperament.
This kind of heroine setting is not only plump but not missing points, but more importantly, it is very realistic.
After the theme song is played, different from the flashback segments of the original drama, the Blue Whale version of "The Best of Us" directly enters the plot.
"A few days ago, "The Signature" went to Thailand to promote, and the Thai princess met with the four main creators..."
The two were enemies at first, but after the military training incident, they established a certain friendship. Yu Huai also took the initiative to help Geng Geng and became his deskmate.
"The Best of Us" is currently mainly on the Magic City Video Channel, and being on "Entertainment Star World" is just a simple warm-up promotion.
She was once again lucky that her school did not have late self-study classes for her first year of high school, otherwise she would have had to wait until the weekend to relax.
Zhao Xue, who prided herself on having average grades, felt a little guilty, but her curiosity about the plot suppressed her guilt and she continued to read it carefully.
Blue and white school uniforms, messy and crowded classrooms, crowded playgrounds, and various familiar scenes instantly caught the attention of Zhao Xue, who is in his first year of high school.
Of course, Geng Geng is the heroine of a TV series after all, so she cannot be completely ordinary.
If you are good at it, first memorize the lyrics at the end, then go back to the second episode and then memorize the previous ones, and then copy them completely into your notebook.
In her narration, the background of the TV series was also revealed.
The ethereal and soothing song sounded, and Zhao Xue sighed: "This song is so nice."
This "ordinary girl" status made Zhao Xue quickly develop a strong sense of intimacy and empathy for Geng Geng.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Yang's figure appeared on the TV screen, talking to the camera and telling his creative ideas.
Frankly speaking, Lu Xinghe's appearance was not pleasant. He was careless and had no integrity. He even deliberately went against the teacher. He was a typical thorny student.
Zhao Xue watched the series of celebrity gossip with great interest, and even jotted down a few of them, intending to share them with his classmates tomorrow, and then he saw a very interesting piece of news.
"The day before yesterday, our reporter interviewed Wei Yang, the screenwriter and star of "The Best of Us".
But I can’t stand how handsome he is!
Along with the introduction, several clips from "The Best of Us" were also played on the screen.
High school students like Zhao Xue have almost no resistance to such a sunny and handsome school bully.
In class, she met a handsome boy named Yu Huai, a top student with a sunny personality and a carefree attitude.
"..."
"Yuanquan music album won the award, avoid falling in love..."
The main perspective of "The Best of Us" is the heroine Geng Geng, and the first episode also revolves around her.
"So handsome."
Geng Geng has an ordinary appearance (as set in the play) and is at the bottom of the school list. Coupled with family discord and her parents' divorce, she has a low self-esteem and a sensitive state of mind.
…
Zhao Xue didn't care what Wei Yang was saying at all, she just stared at the fair and handsome face and murmured to herself.
Zhao Xue looked at the brief news with some regret, but still remembered the name of "The Best of Us", as well as the final broadcast time and channel.
Not as good as those above, but more than below, having many of its own troubles and many of its own happiness.
"I shouldn't be considered a bad student."
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhao Xue even saw her own shadow in Geng Geng.
Zhenhua Middle School, a key high school in BH City, is home to countless academic elites, and the heroine Geng Geng was born in an ordinary junior high school.
But at the same time, she is optimistic, sincere and kind, and has no self-pity.
"This Yu Huai is so good. He studies well, is handsome, and knows how to care about Geng Geng."
The total length of the film is less than two minutes, and Wei Yang's personal shot only lasts for 30 seconds.
"The start-up time of "New Dream of Red Mansions" will be delayed again, and it is planned to start in May next year..."
However, Zhao Xue has never given up this hobby. She also likes to write in it some analysis and reflections on the lyrics. She has almost filled up two notebooks so far.
Zhao Xue was very energetic and finished the important homework before 8 o'clock. There was still some left, but she didn't delay watching the drama.
My parents are divorced, my father is away from home all the time because of work, and I live with my grandma. I feel a little low on self-esteem occasionally, but I don't do anything wrong, and I am silly and happy every day.
"The best of us at that time
Have bright and firm eyes
You told me what happened
Ordinary yet profound
…”
Zhao Xue rummaged through her school bag and took out her lyrics book. Zhao Xue found a piece of draft paper.
Especially at the end of the second episode, the intersection between Lu Xinghe and Geng Geng made the characters more three-dimensional.
Let the audience know that Lu Xinghe's unruly and rebellious appearance is more out of his opposition to the misfortune of his original family.
Lu Xinghe is like a hedgehog, with prickly thorns on the outside, but very gentle on the inside. He will comfort Geng Geng when his father remarries, relax him who is depressed due to poor study, and encourage and praise Geng Geng.
This contrast is very poignant, and it also makes the audience feel a little heartbroken for this character, and they feel more deeply about the kindness he shows to Geng Geng.
At least Zhao Xue abandoned Yu Huai without hesitation and became Lu Xinghe's crush...
