When we got back to the apartment, it was only after three o'clock in the afternoon.
Qi Jin closed his eyes, not because the sun was dazzling, but because he almost didn't have the strength to open his eyes. For most of the residents here, it is still working time, the whole community is quiet, and the surrounding sounds seem to have been evaporated by the heat, attached to the body, and sweat dripping out all the time.
Qi Jin lived on the seventh floor and usually went straight up the stairs, but now she made an exception and pressed the elevator button.
When the elevator door dinged open, the phone rang at almost the same time, and the sound sounded ten times harsher than usual.
It is said that mentally debilitated people are particularly sensitive to voices, which seems to be true. What's more, there is a confined space in front of me, and the echo effect is very good.
Qi Jin glanced at the phone number and judged that if she didn't answer it now, the phone might keep ringing for the next half an hour and she couldn't make up for sleep when it rang. If it is turned off, the caller may come to the door in person within an hour, so that there is no need to sleep at all.
So pressing the answer key is the best and only option.
"Hey?"
"Senior brother! Senior brother, you really are back today! You never answer the phone when you are on a business trip, and I don't dare to disturb you, but when you come back, I can continue to harass you!"
Qi Jin felt that her mental weakness was getting worse.
"Please press 1 to invite me to dinner, press 2 to invite me to dinner, press 3 to complain about your boyfriend."
"Although I really want to press 2 and 3, but wait for these first... May I ask which one to press for the network configuration?"
"This service has not been opened yet, bye." He was about to remove the phone from his ear when an extremely tragic cry came from inside.
"Senior brother! I think I drank with you back then—"
Here comes the killer.
He sighed helplessly: "I see, let me sleep for a few hours first, wake up and read the message."
Netdubbing, short for online dubbing, is a circle of dubbing enthusiasts that exists on the Internet.
Everyone in the network distribution circle has a story, and every story has a beginning.
Qi Jin is no exception.
Qi Jin is a media person, and the nature of his work is destined to cover a wide range of fields in the two-dimensional world, from public forums to private blogs, from serious academic materials to bizarre gossip posts, he will browse them one by one whenever he has time. Happy to try new things.
When Weibo was just emerging, he already had a personal account and invited many friends around him to join. For the first two or three years, he just watched current events, followed some industry celebrities, and wrote about life anecdotes if he was interested. , until one day a junior sister in college @ him on Weibo.
When I opened it, it turned out to be a popular Weibo with a considerable amount of retweets. The title was "Please @ the person with the sexiest voice around you and let him record a wake-up bell~(≧▽≦)/~".
sexy? The moment Qi Jin swiped the title, the corners of his mouth couldn't help turning upwards.
He has been in the TV station for six years. Although his job is not a broadcast host, he has also been exposed to a lot of work related to voice. He is basically immune, and he has no ability to identify his own voice. No one had ever commented on him like this when he was studying before, I never thought that this little girl would think so.
"I saw your @My Weibo, you're not going to chase after me, right? Your boyfriend is an armed policeman, I don't want to die without a corpse." Half-jokingly dialed the phone, only to hear the client use his nose He snorted disdainfully.
"I don't want to break the curved into the straight."
Qi Jin is a calm person. He came out very early and calmly, and did not hide anything from his friends.
True friends don't need to hide, and those who need to hide can't become friends. In those days, the younger sister cried with snot and tears because of this sentence, accompanied him to drink all night, and vomited into darkness in her bedroom the next day, and she still accuses him of ruining the image of a lady she worked so hard to maintain.
Whenever the little girl asks for something, she will move out the classic opening remarks "I want to drink with you back then".
"Senior brother, I think I drank with you back then—"
"I'll record it for you."
"Hey Hey."
Qi Jin has always been faithful to her words. She recorded a wake-up bell for her junior sister that night. She originally wanted to join in the fun and have a good time. I didn't expect this girl to upload his recording to the Internet the next day, and it was still on the WeChat account. Blog published.
Bamboo shoots in March: ≧▽≦ Ah ah ah ah, brother @ I don’t know if you don’t answer, he really recorded the wake-up bell for me! Really sexy! Everyone, come and listen! ! @九女@iCookie @tumbling の meow meow ball @ plain clothes zhu embroidery @ convex convex no concave @ no procrastination can not survive
Su Yi Zhu Embroidery: Mark! In class now, go back and listen!
Rolling の Meow Meow Ball: ( ⊙o⊙) Wow wow wow wow, this voice... really sexy! (beat the ground)
Su Yi Zhu Embroidery: Really? ? People who can't access the computer at present are envious and jealous! ! ┭┮﹏┭┮
Ninth Girl: ... After listening to it... I just want to say - damn, this person's voice sounds like my destiny! !
Convex and no concave: ￢＿￢
Nine Girls: You know me, Tutu! ! ┭┮﹏┭┮
Convex, not concave: ￢_￢ You have been out of the circle for many years, wake up.
Nine girls: Grave egg, don't remind me! ! ┭┮﹏┭┮
Bamboo Shoots in March: Pfft, touch Ah Jiu. Ah Jiu doesn't cry, just stand up and jerk off! ≧ω≦
Nine Girls: Grab the bamboo shoots! ! I want to hook up with your senior brother ah ah ah, please ah ah ah! Is he in the circle? A drama? It's okay to sing it, damn it! It's so much like my life, isn't it
Because the original Weibo @ him, he clicked a comment out of curiosity and couldn't help laughing when he saw this. It seems that it is quite unwise to continue drinking coffee in front of the computer screen.
I met my sister-in-law in a media class at the university. At that time, I already knew that she was very keen on broadcasting and dubbing, and it seemed that she was also in this circle on the Internet. After graduation, several of their alumni from the same city would get together occasionally, and they would always hear her talk about various experiences in the online distribution circle, and related vocabulary was also a little familiar.
Although I generally knew what they were talking about, it was the first time that I had become the center of the topic.
So he put the coffee aside and replied with a small smile.
If you don't know, don't answer: Haha, thank you for the comment, I'm really sorry to be called sexy.
March Bamboo Shoots: Senior Brother! ! ≧0≦
Nine girls: ! ! Damn, it was answered! ! Brother, please hook up! ! ! !
Convex and no concave: ￢＿￢
iCookie: I just came back from going out, it seems that I missed some good show ⊙▽⊙... Who are you going to hook up with, Jiujiu
March Bamboo Shoot: Ah Jiu wants to hook up with my senior brother, hehe. Xiaobinger, go and listen! The connection is on top! Go and listen!
iCookie: Listening... It means the sexiness is MAX! I understand Jiujiu's mood a little bit, poof...
Suyi Zhuxiu: I read your comments and scratched the wall. I can't hear it. I can't hear it. The claw machine party can't be hurt ┭┮﹏┭┮
Don't procrastinate, don't survive: Claw machine party can't afford to hurt +1
Rolling の Meow Meow Ball: I have looped many times, and the more I listen, the more I feel like a young adult Qingqiu (￣▽￣)～*
Nine Girls: Right! ! Meow meow you think so too! !
Rolling の Meow Meow Ball: Mmmm, but Senior Brother Bamboo Shoot's voice is clearer, and Lord Qingqiu is thicker.
Ninth Girl: It's a pity that it was too early to retire from the circle... (cry loudly)
Don't procrastinate, don't survive: Nine girls' life is to be fast and light? ? So you like that sound.
Convex without concave: ￢＿￢ Her life is not too much.
Nine girls: Concave, are you going to be thick? (continues to cry)
If you don't know, don't answer: Haha, you guys are so interesting, so I want to play dubbing too.
It took less than two minutes for this reply to be sent, and the phone on the table immediately rang. When I picked it up, it turned out to be Ning Xiaoxiao, the junior sister with the ID of March Bamboo Shoot on Weibo.
"Senior brother, aren't you joking?" The little girl had a serious tone, but couldn't hide the faint excitement in her voice.
"I'm not joking, it's quite interesting to watch your friends chat."
"Senior brother, please refresh and take a look. Your reply almost made Ah Jiu... Ah, the girl named Jiu on Weibo, she almost went crazy with excitement. She just poked me hard on QQ, be sure to I'll drag you into the water."
"I don't care." Qi Wei smiled.
When he was a student, he took the history of Western drama and script writing as electives, and he often watched movies and wrote movie reviews. He was more or less interested in acting.
"Then... I'll sell you?"
If you can draw a person's voice state with a pen, Ning Xiaoxiao's appearance is definitely a beast with bright eyes, staring at its prey and swallowing saliva. But this beast still wanted to disguise as a little white rabbit, and it was a particularly innocent one.
"You sell it, I'm billed by the minute anyway." It's a pity that her opponent is a person who has never lost in such matters as verbal molestation.
"Senior brother..." Ning Xiaoxiao's voice that was about to cry without tears was particularly beautiful on the other end of the phone.
"Don't cry, don't cry, turn grief and anger into appetite, and then you can sell it by weight, and you will make a profit." Qi Jin is also a master at repairing knives.
"Senior brother..." Ning Xiaoxiao was stabbed in the sore spot, and the level of grief in his voice rose sharply, "Senior brother, please let me go..."
Qi Jin was about to continue to make a few more jokes. QQ suddenly came up with a prompt to add a friend. When he clicked it, the applicant was the "Nine Girls" he had seen on Weibo.
"Ajiu asked me for your QQ, I gave it to her, she should add you."
"You're really efficient." He smiled and shook his head. This girl moves her fingers faster than her lips, so she is very skilled at cutting first and then playing.
Nine girls was the first planner Qi Jin met in the circle, and the first person to ask him what ID he used for the internet.
"I don't want to ask about the return date." Qi Jin thought for a while and answered like this.
In the following years, Jiu girls often talk about two things when they meet people.
The first thing she has done is the least regretful thing she has done since she entered the circle, that is, she successfully hooked up the CV of "Don't Ask the Return Date".
The second thing is the most regretful thing she has done since she entered the circle, that is, she agreed with him to use the ID of "no return date".
If the newcomer planners are fortunate enough to meet the senior of Nine Girls and listen to her babble, they will be deeply abused by the true meaning of this ID and their glass hearts will be shattered.
"Do not ask the return date" is a veritable ID, because the owner of this ID has been missing for more than six months in a year.
Originally, seeing this ID has already made the planners feel a little cold, and the rest of them are also cold when they see the QQ signature "1. .
"I regret it." Jiu girl's catchphrase when chatting with Qi Jin gradually became these four words.
"Three-dimensional is very abusive." Qi Jin's ability to adapt to the language of the circle is very good, and her own explanation has changed from the honest "too busy with work" at the beginning to this.
In fact, these words are not excuses, just facts.
Provincial TV stations have wider coverage than local TV stations, and their workload naturally increases accordingly. Every time there is a non-local breaking news, the unit has to send someone on an emergency business trip to the scene. Single men like Qi Jin who have no family and no children are especially vulnerable.
In July, in addition to the rising temperature, there is also the rainfall.
The heavy rainfall in the province has caused traffic jams in some areas, and many accidents have occurred. For example, a large-scale landslide occurred at the place of business trip this time. He and several colleagues of the interview team followed the troops' vehicles for 12 hours. Just arrived at the place, not to mention the muddy water, the accommodation conditions are still quite bad, after half a month of tossing, I can finally go home.
I was in a hurry when I went out, and the curtains in the bedroom were not drawn. In the afternoon, the direct sunlight came in, and a few white scorching light grids were branded on the solid wood floor. When I walked over barefoot, my toes were scalded.
"So hot… "
Qi Jin threw the briefcase on the computer chair, closed the curtains, and yearned for a little coolness in the shadows. Helpless, the place where the shirt was stuck to his back was soaked with sweat, and he felt sticky and uncomfortable. He had no choice but to fumble for the air conditioner remote control on the bedside table, unbuttoned his clothes, and changed into a set of clean clothes. The man was paralyzed on the bed.
When I first entered the industry, the seniors once said that when a person is the most tired, he can't sleep. Qi Jin has often experienced this first-hand over the past few years.
To quote a sentence on his Weibo, his sleep quality is almost on par with the domestic food hygiene quality.
On the way back, he was dozing off in the car intermittently. At this time, he had been lying down for ten minutes without sleepiness, so Qi Jin turned over and turned on the computer first.
Due to work needs, he usually carries the computer configured by the unit with him when he travels on business, and only uses his personal computer when he returns home.
He has been out for more than two weeks, and I am afraid there are many messages.
As expected, just after logging in to QQ, the penguin in the lower right corner of the screen was immediately captured by more than a dozen different avatars, and the prompt sound beeped for a while, and he could even feel that the computer crashed for ten seconds.
The people who leave a message, almost without exception, come from the "planning" column in the friend group.
The content of the message, almost without exception, contains a QQ emoji related to crying.
Rouge: Don't ask the return date SAMA! ! What I want to ask is your return date, don't tell me not to ask! ! TAT
MEE: You have the ability to play and disappear, and you have the ability to communicate with each other! Don't QQ invisible, I know you are online! Reply a sentence will SHI, will SHI! (sorrowful tears)
Bai Yiqing:... big... people... beg... pay... sound... (crying)
Pancake: If you don't show up again on the return date, I will return to the west! ╥﹏╥
…
…
…
There are 35 unread QQ emails, 128 unread messages, and 999+ unread group chat records... Seeing this, he doesn't even want to log in to his Weibo account.
In contrast, Junior Sister's ferocious image of a ghost just now became a lot more friendly.
