Chen Li was so angry that the purchase ratio was not reached, and she didn't plan to talk to them directly. Zhou Jinshen's status in Jindian is not just that of a popular star. The department Chen Li belongs to has little contact with the top management. She never thought that the first time she could speak to Zhou Jinshen would be this situation.
It was Xin Zimai who first called Chen Li. After she got through, she was a little surprised to hear the other party talk about the management of the company's artists. After all, this kind of thing has nothing to do with a trainee like her. . But Xin Zimai insisted that she go to the place where the trainees were training, and Chen Li, whose office was downstairs, also came to the dance studio. It's already the break time, the dance room should be empty by now, but she didn't expect that as soon as she entered this floor, she heard someone yelling and cursing loudly.
On the way, Chen Li met Han Ming who she had brought with her. Han Ming had just finished discussing the new song with the line dance teacher, and was going to say hello, but when he heard the news, he couldn't leave Chen Li alone. people, and followed them together.
Fortunately, this matter has involved two artists, and there is no way to deal with it in a low-key manner. Chen Li barely suppressed the depression in her chest, turned her head to An Xumo and said, "Xiao An, I remember you, are you not injured? Can you tell me, what's going on?"
An Xumo was looking down at his mobile phone. The call on the screen was still going on. He didn't know why the other party didn't hang up, but he was reluctant to take the initiative to disconnect the phone. He hadn't heard Zhou Jinchen's voice yet.
Hearing Chen Li's question, An Xumo looked up. He glanced at the seven people whose faces were ashen ashes. No one dared to look up and meet him.
"Thank you, Sister Chen," An Xumo thought for a while, "I don't know, they just came over and pushed me into this room after the training."
Chen Li frowned. She was also aware of An Xumo's situation. Apart from his own conditions, he had no other support. Who knew he would be saved by Xin Zimai directly today, which forced Chen Li to reassess An Xumo.
But no matter what, this treatment must satisfy them. Chen Li comforted An Xumo a few more words, and then dialed a phone number. She called the names of the seven people in front of her one by one, and said to the other side after she finished counting: "Pick out the contracts of the seven of them, and hand them over to them." To Director Xin."
As soon as she finished speaking, the hearts of several trainees who were waiting to be reprimanded fell directly into the ground.
This result is much more serious than being reprimanded by Chen Li. Although Chen Li is also an experienced agent, her authority cannot be compared with that of Xin Zimai who joined the top team early. Even if they are trainees, she does not have the power to expel them directly. But Xin Zimai is different, no matter what he wants to do with these trainees, he will not exceed his authority.
After sending the favors, Chen Li still ignored the trainees. Seeing that Han Ming was still there, she said to Han Ming, "By the way, you were going to choose a backup dancer for your new single last time, and Xiao An happened to be one of the candidates. Although today's Things are a bit messy, but it just so happens that you have known each other in advance. When we choreograph later, we have to work together."
She said this to appease An Xumo, but she inadvertently stabbed the seven trainees in the chest again. Mo has always been a loner, and his family has no background, so they are so unscrupulous. Unexpectedly, An Xumo not only secured the resources, but also moved in such a powerful rescuer.
The few people were already full of despair, but Chen Li didn't pay attention to them at all, so they didn't even have a chance to complain.
What the trainees didn't expect was that even Han Ming said, "Xiao'an is very capable, I noticed him before. Sister Chen, don't worry, our cooperation will definitely be fine."
The seven trainees felt more and more unbelievable, what is the origin of this An Xumo, that everyone wants to protect him
The trainees were upset, but An Xumo didn't notice this. He briefly thanked Chen Li and Han Ming, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I still have a call to finish."
Han Ming took the lead and said, "Let's fight first, how about I send you out?"
He gestured to Chen Li. Chen Li couldn't figure out the details of An Xumo, and she couldn't force her to stay, so she took advantage of the situation and said, "Go, go, you are frightened today, go back and have a good rest, I will take care of it here."
Han Ming and An Xumo left the dance studio together, and it was getting dark outside. An Xumo originally wanted to decline Han Ming's company, but the other party pushed that they would leave together, so An Xumo couldn't say anything more. He looked at the screen that was still on, took a shallow breath, and whispered: "... hello?"
On the other side of the phone, Zhou Jinshen, who had witnessed the whole accident, didn't look very good.
After handing over the reservation of the restaurant to Xin Zimai, he originally wanted to call this brother who had been estranged for a long time. But An Xumo's class was tight, and when he called, An Xumo had already gone to class. However, the restaurant is not far from Jindian. After the interview, Zhou Jinshen simply went to the restaurant first, planning to call An Xumo over when the time came.
However, after arriving at the restaurant, Zhou Jinshen's mood became less pleasant. Xin Zimai, who was traveling with her, was dragged into the restaurant together before she had time to leave.
Putting the prepared meal order in front of the other party, Zhou Jinshen's voice was tinged with obvious gloom: "Oil-free chicken breast chowder, avocado salad, and skim yogurt. Is this the dinner you chose?"
Xin Zimai touched his nose: "Isn't this very healthy?"
Zhou Jinshen's fingertips slid across the row of numbers following the meal, leaving obvious gray marks on the pure white paper slip. The slowed down voice was even more oppressive: "Yes, so healthy that all the calories are clearly marked."
Xin Zimai coughed lightly: "Actually, I also find it strange, but Xiao An's manager did say so. I have seen Xiao An's contract, and he signed a composite contract. The company will only provide him with resources to become an idol." You also know that idols and actors are different in nature, maybe he is trying to maintain his figure?"
Zhou Jin glanced at him expressionlessly, took out his mobile phone and dialed An Xumo's number. He originally planned to ask An Xumo's opinion directly, and if the other party had other choices, he would change to another restaurant, but he didn't expect that there was a strange banging sound from the opposite side just after the call was connected.
Afterwards, the voice became more and more wrong, Zhou Jin frowned heavily, and he took the phone a little far away to prevent his movements from being noticed by the other side. He lowered his voice and said to Xin Zimai: "Call the person in charge of the trainees, just say Something happened over there."
Xin Zimai, who was lowering his head to seriously study the calorie and pretended not to be there, was also taken aback for a moment, but Zhou Jinshen's expression did not seem to be fake. He hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed Chen Li directly.
Although Chen Li on the phone was a little confused, she still agreed to go, but she still needed time to go there. Seeing that the voice on the phone was getting more and more wrong, Zhou Jinshen picked up the pre-dinner plate that was just brought by the waiter and snapped. He dropped the snow-white plate to the ground.
"Bang!"
The environment of a high-end restaurant is elegant and extremely private, but the furnishings here are still semi-open. A loud bang exploded amidst the elegant music, and the eyes of the entire restaurant were instantly focused.
Xin Zimai couldn't help but stretch out his hand to hold his forehead, and tried to maintain a calm facial expression under the eyes of everyone. While urging Chen Li on the other side of the phone, he painfully pulled this restaurant into the blacklist in his heart.
… I will definitely, definitely never come to this store again.
Others naturally don't know, but An Xumo vaguely feels that there is a reason for him to bring up this matter alone. Sure enough, Zhang Zhiwei said: "I learned this from Xiao Mo's mother."
"Our family's conditions were not good back then. You young people may have never experienced this situation, but Xiang Shen should know that the tuition fees for college at that time were hard to come by, let alone living expenses. Later, I was able to take jobs in school. Earn some extra money and things will get better."
There was emotion in Zhang Zhiwei's voice.
"When I was a freshman, my senior sister was our teaching assistant. I was one of the poorest in our class. There was a mistake at home for a while, and the living expenses were not delivered. I couldn't afford it in the cafeteria. For food, I only need a steamed bun, and I eat it with the big package of pickles in the canteen. After a long time, the senior sister found out, and said that this way of eating is not good, so she gave it to me. There is another female student with very poor conditions, They gave each of us a large box of fried rice."
Zhang Zhiwei told the story slowly, and the attention of the people next to him was also attracted.
"Senior sister's conditions are not very good, but she is skillful. Not only did she fry a lot of rice for us, she also gave us two full cans of pickled vegetables and salty sauce made by herself. It's the two cans of side dishes. I survived the hardest days. Alas, I still sigh when I think about it now. Telling you young people these things feels like telling stories, but they are actually things that we really experienced at that time."
"Yes," Yan Xiangshen picked up a chopsticks of shrimp eggs and put them in the bowl, "My conditions were slightly better than Zhiwei at that time, but not much worse. Now the conditions are better, let alone young people, it is us Thinking about it myself, I also feel that those days are like a dream, for a while I feel that they are far away, and for a while I feel that it just happened yesterday.”
Zhang Zhiwei smiled, and patted An Xumo on the shoulder: "Xiao Mo, is the taste similar to what your mother made?"
An Xumo smiled, but felt stuffy in his chest, and his stomach was empty, as if everything he had just eaten had disappeared. The ferocious hunger hit him like a shower that fell on the coast in the morning. He was so hungry, but he didn't dare to stare directly at Zhou Jinchen, so he could only say in a low voice: "Well, it's delicious. .” Then he picked up the rice sullenly.
An Xumo felt that he was cold and hungry, not only his stomach was empty, but his whole body was empty. He had never thought about his parents, maybe he had, but that was a long, long time ago. He lived quietly by himself, and didn't care about anything except food and Zhou Jinshen. But now someone told him that he/mother is like this, that illusory dream showed a little outline, but the temperature left behind made An Xumo, who had returned to the darkness, feel even colder.
Mother…
It turns out that my mother not only has the image of a "shameless, cuckolded, shameless vixen", she can also cook delicious fried rice.
The lunch ended in a lively atmosphere. After chatting for a while, several people began to prepare the big meal for the evening. Originally, the program group also arranged outdoor activities. After all, the seaside in Sanya is so beautiful and the scenery is intoxicating enough. It's a pity that the weather outside is still gloomy, so it's not suitable for lighting. Zhang Zhiwei, who was full of food and drink, laughed at the director team, and then slowly continued to make dinner.
The crabs had to be steamed in a pot, and the chicken soup had to be boiled slowly. Zhang Zhiwei directed Yi Tianming to help, while Yan Xiangshen called Han Ming to clean up the bedroom. Han Ming originally wanted to be with Zhou Jinchen, but he couldn't refuse when the senior asked, so he had to watch An Xumo and Zhou Jinchen stay in the same room.
The two are guests, and they don't actually have much work to do, but if they don't do activities, they won't have any chance to be photographed, so they still need to find a way to do something. An Xumo's lunch was not very comfortable, and he didn't know if he was full or not. After eating, the tableware should be washed out, so he moved the basin to the sink in the living room, ready to wash out the dishes.
An Xumo hadn't done this kind of work much, and he usually washed a plastic lunch box at most. He was clumsy and made a lot of noise, even Zhang Zhiwei who was preparing to cook at the other end of the room looked over. twice.
The more nervous you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. When An Xumo was scrambling to deal with a pot and spoon, Zhou Jinchen, who had tied up his apron, came over and pushed him away from the pool.
An Xumo stood on the side obediently, like a student who was detained and criticized by the teacher. He watched Zhou Jinshen, who had rolled up his cuffs, stretch out his hands. His slender and powerful hands, which had been drawn close-up by countless cameras, soaked into the sink, methodically sorted the dishes, and cleaned them skillfully.
Zhou Jinshen wears an apron with the sponsor's logo on it. The style is the most common one, but he is tall and has long legs and good proportions, so he insists on wearing the apron as a design. Although he vaguely understood the other party's intentions, An Xumo still felt that Zhou Jinchen's two temperaments, homely and non-human, had reached a very perfect fusion.
I also want to know that this kind of contrast will definitely attract a lot of goodwill when it is put on the screen. And Zhou Jinshen is not just putting on a pose, he is much more proficient in washing dishes than An Xumo who is in a hurry, so that reliable sense of home can be perfectly presented in him.
For this kind of excellent material obtained by accident, the program team will naturally not let go of any shot. After Zhou Jinshen finished washing, he handed over the bowls, and An Xumo dried them one by one and put them away. The two of them didn't communicate much, but the results were absolutely satisfactory.
In the evening, the weather finally cleared up, the setting sun revealed half of its silhouette from the clouds in the sky, and the fiery red color burned most of the sea surface. The aroma of food wafted in the warm stone house, and the jingling wind chimes swayed gently on the eaves. Although he knew all along that he was recording a program, this warm home atmosphere still gave An Xumo a lot of comfort.
It was starlight when dinner was ready, and the table was filled with five servings of steamed crab and six servings of coconut chicken. Because An Xumo can't eat seafood, Zhang Zhiwei dug up his crab and made crab powder, and his portion of coconut chicken was full, enough for him to slowly fill up.
Dinner is the main content of the program group's filming. Several people chatted while eating. Finally, after eating, they didn't have enough time to talk, so they moved to the beach to chat at Yan Xiangshen's suggestion. The dark clouds dissipated, the sky was full of stars, the sea breeze blew away the heat of the day, and the waves gently lapped the coast. Food and clothing are abundant, and the scenery is superb. This slow and comfortable pace of life really makes people feel very comfortable.
A bonfire was lit by the beach, and the flames reflected everyone's faces, making the most gentle fill light. Zhou Jinshen, who hadn't spoken much since he was on the show, also chatted with Zhang Zhiwei. An Xumo listened with his head on his knees, and they were chatting about Zhou Jinshen's movie.
"It is true that literary films do not have an advantage in the market, but be careful, you will definitely not suffer from this film you made." Zhang Zhiwei said, "Lin Rui talked to me, and he said that he did not expect to meet such a young and explosive filmmaker." Your partner, Lin Rui has been praising you to me, saying that your performance is better than his performance in "The Vanishing Train" back then."
Lin Rui is also a well-recognized actor in acting, and "The Vanishing Train" is his best actor movie. Zhou Jinshen collaborated with Lin Rui in the last movie, and the two have a lot of intersections in the plot.
Zhou Jin smiled faintly, his handsome face showed a different kind of gentleness against the firelight, Han Ming beside him was always looking sideways at him, but An Xumo only looked at him for a while, then turned Look away.
Just one look fills the stomach, it's warm and sweet.
Zhou Jin said solemnly: "Brother Rui took care of me, made this movie, and he also taught me a lot."
Zhang Zhiwei shook his head, and said: "Lin Rui also had the opportunity of "The Vanishing Train" back then to achieve that achievement. Sincerely, I won't be polite, your opportunity is indeed coming soon."
Zhang Zhiwei's words were indeed heart-to-heart, and there was still a camera shooting beside him. He must have spotted Zhou Jinchen when he said that. Yan Xiangshen smiled and said: "It's rare to see Zhiwei boasting so much, be careful, if you really win the award, don't forget to invite Zhiwei to dinner."
"According to the auspicious words of the two teachers," Zhou Jin said with a deep smile, "I am waiting to invite everyone to dinner."
The atmosphere was good for a while, and the few people watched the night scene at the beach for a while, and did not start preparing to go back to the house until the wind gradually cooled down.
The camera was put away, the bonfire was extinguished, and the beach without natural and artificial lights gradually dimmed. An Xumo went to the beach to pick up two shells and came back. He saw that the others had almost cleaned up and was about to go back. Not far away, there was A slender figure stood alone, facing the sea alone.
An Xumo stepped on the beach and walked over. When he was not far from the man, his footsteps slowly stopped.
The man facing the sea was looking up at the calm and deep sea in the distance, and the faint starlight fell on the corners of his eyebrows and eyes. The light on the coast has long since dimmed, but the man's body is like a solid field, cold and heavy.
The current Zhou Jinshen is completely different from the man who handles shrimp threads and washes dishes skillfully during the day, even the smile and warmth from the chat by the campfire just now have completely disappeared.
The camera moves away, the mask peels off. An Xumo suddenly felt for no reason that this was the real appearance of the other party.
After finally getting his life back, the Zhou family no longer had any demands on Zhou Jinshen, they only wanted him to live in peace. So when the seventeen-year-old Zhou Jinshen proposed to become an entertainer in the entertainment industry, the Zhou family did not express any objection. Instead, they helped him pave the way ahead of time. The amount of investment in Jindian alone was enough to shock.
