It's May, when spring flowers are blooming in the Magic City. The weather is the most comfortable at this time. It's neither cold nor hot when walking outside. The occasional breeze blows, which makes people feel better.
The same is true for Qin Xiaobao, Friday is the weekend tomorrow.
After taking classes for a month, he has completely entered the student mode and thinking. Classes are held five days a week. It is actually not easy. It is special. There are so many textbooks and so many teachers are staring at him. He is too embarrassed to be lazy. He just listens to the class carefully.
After all, it would not sound good if it came out that he was half-hearted in class.
Several other students looked at it and said, hey, you are already a director and you are still working so hard, why don’t we have to work harder?
As a result, the teachers became much more relaxed, and the students of this year were very self-conscious.
When he arrived at his car, Qin Xiaobao shook his head helplessly. There was a small note taped to the car window.
"I'm Lu Qiaoqiao from the acting department. Let's get to know each other and be friends. Same WeChat number: 181***"
There is also a small heart at the back.
This is not the first time I have received it. He is young, wealthy, handsome, and has a bright future.
It's normal for girls to have heartbeats.
After a period of getting to know each other, everyone knew Qin Xiaobao's general schedule and route of action, and his license plate was no secret. Some proactive girls began to take action.
There will be love breakfasts and love letters in the classroom, and occasionally such friendship stickers will appear on the car windows.
Although Qin Xiaobao is about the same grade as them, he always feels like a child. What's more, with Wang Bingbing, why would he care about this?
He took the note off the car window, grabbed it, looked around, saw there was no trash can, and put it into his pocket.
When I came out just now, my classmates were going to KTV to sing in the evening. I heard that they were having a social gathering with the girls' dormitory and asked him to join them, but Qin Xiaobao refused.
It's a bit embarrassing to go alone, just a bit...the company organizes team building, and the leaders follow me, and everyone can't let go.
However, what he didn't know was that after he declined, those guys regretted it by about 5%. After staying together for a few months, they no longer cared about celebrities or not.
Fortunately, it accounted for more than 90%. There is no other reason. Qin Xiaobao is good-looking and can sing very well. Think about it, there are girls across the street. In the KTV, you can't hang around the good-looking guy.
Besides, there are his songs in it, so if he really goes there, no one else will have a chance.
So, it’s okay not to go, it’s okay not to go.
Qin Xiaobao drove the car and went to Chen He's hotpot restaurant without going home.
He received a call at noon and asked him to come over and invite him to dinner. He said that he had something to ask for. Qin Xiaobao agreed. This could not be a recording of a program.
He and Chen He got along quite well. They didn't meet often, but they hit it off immediately. He liked the other person's personality, he was carefree and humorous.
After saying that I had something to do, I should see if I could help. They didn't tell me whether it was a business matter or a private matter, so I told the company and drove there by myself.
On the way, Chen He called again.
"Where are you putting it? It's not here yet?"
"Why are you in a hurry? It's the weekend tomorrow and it's time to get off work again. We're stuck. We won't be there for a while." Qin Xiaobao stopped the car slowly, and there was another red light.
"Can't you leave earlier!"
"I'm a student. How dare you leave before get out of class is over? Don't you know the temper of the teachers in the school?" Qin Xiaobao asked back.
"That's true, there are some professors who are very enthusiastic!" Chen He felt the same way: "Okay, drive slowly and I won't disturb you. Let me know when you arrive and I will pick you up."
"become."
After driving for about an hour and a distance of ten kilometers, when we arrived, my stomach was already growling.
Chen He was waiting at the door. When he saw the car, he came over to greet him. The old friend didn't need to exchange greetings. He went directly to the store and turned into the private room.
"Are we just the two of us?" Qin Xiaobao looked at it. The hot pot was steaming in the middle, and the beef and mutton slices had been placed on the table.
"Yes, just the two of us." Chen He sat down and said, "What to drink, beer or red wine."
"No more drinking, I'm still driving." Qin Xiaobao took off his coat and hung it aside.
"Call the agent and ask him to come over."
"Forget it, it's hard for people to have a rest on the weekend. I don't know what to do now. No need to bother. If you want to drink, you can drink some. I will bring you a drink to accompany you."
"Okay, then I won't drink it either." Chen He didn't force it: "Then just drink coconut water."
"I can do it," Qin Xiaobao took the serving chopsticks and took down the slices of meat: "I think the business outside is pretty good. The weather is getting hotter now, and there are still so many people eating hot pot."
"There are more people this weekend, but there are still a lot less people than in winter." Chen He poured him a drink: "I can't help it, hot pot is like this, it's very seasonal, and it's not as exciting to eat when the weather is cold.
After a while, it will be summer, and it will be even worse, and I will have to lose money every month."
"It seems that doing business is not that easy." Qin Xiaobao stood up. His dipping sauce was still the same, sesame peanut butter, chili coriander and minced garlic. Once he was used to eating this, he would not change it easily.
Wang Bingbing eats hot pot with vinegar and chili. He tried it but couldn't accept it.
"Who says it's not the case?" Chen He was eating meat there.
"I said, the guests haven't eaten yet, why are you anxious?" Qin Xiaobao sat back: "Besides, don't you eat every day?"
"Are you tired of hot pot?" Chen He disagreed.
The two of them were not in a hurry. They ate and drank for a while until their stomachs were full, and then they slowed down.
Qin Xiaobao took out a piece of paper and wiped his mouth: "I've eaten my food, what else can I say? Don't tell me it's another six hundred thousand."
Chen He smiled: "Xiaobao, let's be honest among our friends, what do you think of my acting skills?"
"Hey, are you talking about such a serious topic?"
He nodded: "Let me tell you the truth. Although I have often appeared on the screen in the past two years, most of them have been in variety shows. The audience and fans are also used to my image of making jokes. Now I am more like a comedian than an actor."
Star, of course, there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Chen He took a sip of the drink and looked like he was drinking.
"It's just that people's words are scary."
"What do you care about the comments on the Internet? Some of them are impossible to study." Qin Xiaobao comforted.
"I will definitely ignore those who slander maliciously. After all, I have been debuting for so many years and I have never seen any big storms." Chen He shook his head and stirred his chopsticks in the bowl: "Many people said that even though they have good resources,
But if you can’t produce excellent works and don’t do your job all day long, are you still not an actor?”
Qin Xiaobao didn't interrupt, knowing that he had more to say.
"Actually, when I enter the entertainment industry, I have nothing to do with my uncle. We are all distant relatives and rarely move around... But on the Internet, it feels like I have gained so much glory and gone through so many backdoors." Chen He
Somewhat angry.
"Wait a minute, your uncle? Who is it?" Qin Xiaobao looked curious.
"You don't know?" Chen He was surprised.
"Should I know?"
"Okay, it's director Chen Kaige."
"Fuck!"
"Look, look, all the netizens are just like you." Chen He pointed at him and said.
"I'm just expressing surprise."
"Forget it, I'm used to it too." Chen He put down his hand: "You know that movie at the beginning of last year, right?"
"The one with a Korean female star?"
"Yes, it's a complete mess and we've lost money."
"What do you mean, you were affected and no director wanted to film with you?" It's normal for Qin Xiaobao to think this way.
Chen He waved his hand: "There are still some, and there are quite a few. The key is that almost all the films have the same characters."
"Laughing and cursing is not serious?"
"That's about it." Chen He didn't care what words he used, as long as the meaning was clear: "I've made it clear that I don't want to act. To be honest, the script is very ordinary. It's funny for the sake of being funny.
Didn't you say some time ago that you had prepared a script, and I just wanted to ask if it would suit me?"
"Not suitable!" Qin Xiaobao said directly.
"Eh?!" Chen He was stunned: "Can you give me some face? You should think about it before denying it. I will be very embarrassed if you do this!"
Qin Xiao laughed: "I just said it directly because I treat you as a friend, without being pretentious or blindly giving hope.
I'll tell you the truth, first of all, this movie was made for Hu Ge's voice."
Chen He opened his mouth and understood instantly: "I understand."
"Bu, you don't understand. Even if it's not for Hu Ge, you're not suitable for that role." Qin Xiaobao continued: "The main atmosphere of the film is scary and depressing. It's true as you said. When the audience sees you, the first reaction is to think...
Le, it’s easy to get into trouble even if you reluctantly play a very decent role, which is why most of your works are mainly comedy.
Think about it, in a dark room, a girl is holding a knife and hiding in the corner in fear. The music is very exciting, but as soon as the door opens, you, Chen He, come out..."
"Oh no, are you praising me or hurting me?" Chen He was not happy.
"I'm just stating the facts."
"The truth is the most hurtful." Chen He sighed. He must understand his situation better than Qin Xiaobao, and the transformation will not be so easy.
For a moment, the two of them were relatively speechless.
After a while, Qin Xiaobao asked carefully: "Then...can I still eat it?"
Chen He waved his hand: "No!!!"
"Oh, then I'll continue," Qin Xiaobao ignored him: "It's actually easy, just find a funny and profound movie, the kind that brings tears while laughing."
"It's easy to say, you have to find it." Chen He patted the table: "In the past year, I have read no less than thirty scripts...It's hard to describe in one sentence, hey, forget it, I'm sorry.
, to make you laugh, my brother will give you a toast with water instead of wine."
It's just that Qin Xiaobao didn't react at all after holding the cup for a long time.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Respect me." Chen He shouted twice.
"I'm sorry, I got distracted." Qin Xiaobao raised his head: "Brother He, actually, I have a script here, no, to be precise, it's an idea. I haven't talked to anyone about it yet. It fits what I just said, with a smile.
Tears, both funny and meaningful, are simply tailor-made for you."
"Really!" Chen He's eyes were as big as a copper bell, and it was hard for him: "Why don't you comfort me?"
"How could it be? It's true, and I think the audience will also like it." Qin Xiaobao said firmly.
"That's OK, I'll take it."
"You're the one to take it. There's no script yet. Why are you so anxious?"
"That doesn't matter, let's make a reservation first." Chen He was happy again: "When you say when to shoot, tell me in advance, and immediately free up the schedule, don't take any work, and concentrate on making movies."
Qin Xiaobao thought about it for a while: "I have a bold idea."
"What do you think?"
"Nothing goes wrong with Lao Hu's movie. It will start next month and the cycle will be about half a month. If there is a rush during this period, can it be seamlessly connected?"
"It takes more than a month to prepare a film. Is it too much to rush? Is it a small budget?" Chen He also knows about movies, so he raised the question.
"No, the cost this time is indispensable. Whether it is actors, venues or other things, we have to spend time to find and contact them," Qin Xiaobao said, shaking his head: "I am a little anxious. It has been more than a month and it is really too late."
"It's okay. If you need any help, you can bring money to join the team."
Qin Xiaobao smiled: "No, let's do this. During this period, I will finish the script first, and you can take a look at it. The rest must be done step by step."
"Okay," Chen He rubbed his hands: "What, Xiaobao, no, Director Qin, thank you so much, thank you so much!"
"Don't thank me so early. Let's wait until the movie is released and becomes a hit. Then we can say thank you."
