Chapter 53

Views:

After waiting downstairs in the hotel for almost an hour, Lu Ji finally arrived late.

The airport expressway was too congested, and it was the weekend again. Lu Ji hurry up, got out of the car, and found that Zhou Chenxi was squatting on the side of the road downstairs of the hotel. When he saw him coming over, he stood up and slapped before opening his mouth. sneeze.

Lu Ji quickly asked him, "Is it cold?"

It was already late autumn. Although Nanshi did not cool down as fast as H city, the temperature difference between day and night was also huge. Fortunately, Lu Ji came over just after the meeting, and didn't have time to change his autumn clothes.

Lu Ji took off his short trench coat and put it on Zhou Chenxi.

Lu Ji's coat was warm, with his body temperature and the faint fragrance unique to him.

Zhou Chenxi took a breath and felt that the temperature on his body had returned to its original position. He shook his head and said, "It's not cold."

Seeing that his face was gradually returning to blood, Lu Ji was relieved: "Why don't you sit inside and wait outside, fool."

Zhou Chenxi was embarrassed to say that she was too impatient and wanted to see Lu Ji soon, so she smiled at him silly.

Lu Ji had no choice but to ask him, "Is there any place you want to go? My car is still outside."

Zhou Chenxi had no particular place to go, so Lu Ji took him directly to the hotel he booked.

He has specially prepared a birthday present for Zhou Chenxi.

The hotel is next to the hot air balloon park. Although it is not particularly high-end, it was specially chosen by Lu Ji. When recording "Carp", Zhou Chenxi liked the hot air balloons very much, and kept looking up at the sky.

The hot air balloon park can't open at night, but he can find a way to get the hot air balloon into the air.

The driver drove them to the direction of the hot air balloon park. Zhou Chenxi saw the hot air balloon glowing in the night sky at a glance, and excitedly leaned on the window and said, "Wow! Lu Ji! The last time I came here. It's as if I heard them say that the park is closed at night, why is it so beautiful today!"

"Well," Lu Ji said, looking at him, "the park is opened just for you."

Zhou Chenxi was stunned, turned around to look at him, and looked out the window seriously, with the light of the hot air balloon in his eyes, making him extremely focused.

When he got to the hotel, he realized that the hot air balloon park wasn't really open, but Lu Ji and the staff negotiated to leave the venue and let them lift all the hot air balloons into the sky.

Half of the night sky in Nanshi was lit up, like giant kongming lanterns were put on them. Zhou Chenxi was super happy, cheering, and went to the restaurant on the top floor of the hotel with Lu Ji.

The restaurant has panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, which can directly see the night view outside.

Although Zhou Chenxi was full, he was very considerate not to make it difficult for Lu Ji, and sat down with him at the dining table.

Lu Ji didn't order first, but let the waiter serve a small birthday cake.

There was a candle on the cake, the lights dimmed, and Lu Ji said, "Make a wish."

The waiter quietly stepped back, and Zhou Chenxi then remembered that he was absent-minded before and didn't even remember a wish.

Birthdays only happen once a year, so don't waste the chance to make a wish.

Zhou Chenxi hurriedly closed her eyes and thought seriously: I hope Lu Ji's career goes well! Healthy parents! Brother, find the other half early! You'll be fine by yourself!

Filling him and the people he followed into the same wish, Zhou Chenxi was satisfied, opened his eyes, and blew out the candle.

The lights in the restaurant near them came back on again, and Lu Ji asked him, "What wish did you make?"

Of course not!

Zhou Chenxi smiled and said, "Secret!"

Lu Ji only had one meal on the plane, so he asked the waiter to serve a simple dinner. Zhou Chenxi watched him finish it, and the simple birthday party was over.

Zhou Chenxi could have stayed in Nanshi for a few more days, but he had a job in the future, and his brother didn't have that long to accompany him.

My brother's original intention was to ask Zhou Chenxi to call all his friends over and have a good time after the hotel opened, but obviously the ideal is very full, and the reality is very skinny. Zhou Chenxi doesn't have so many friends that he wants to see. The only thing he wants to see the most is Lu cum.

Lu Ji has come today, and the birthday he thought of is over.

The hour hand moved minute by minute, and it was about twelve o'clock. Zhou Chenxi asked Lu Ji, "Lu Ji, what gift do you want?"

Lu Ji rolled his eyes and smiled: "To let me spend your birthday with you is the best gift you can give me."

Zhou Chenxi opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Lu Ji's eyes suddenly glanced at his soft and moist lips, and said, "You can owe the rest first, and I will ask you for it later when I find a suitable time."

Zhou Chenxi: "Well..."

It's okay, since Lu Ji said he has received the best gift, he doesn't need to bother so much!

After twelve o'clock, Zhou Chenxi's actual birthday arrived, and Lu Ji said "Happy Birthday" to him again and sent him back to the hotel.

Because Lu Ji didn't have much time, Zhou Chenxi kindly canceled the follow-up trip, and was going to go home with his parents and brother tomorrow.

That night, Zhou Mingxuan finished the video conference and recalled that he didn't seem to have time to accompany his brother to finish the birthday cake, so he tried to find him, but after looking around, he was told by the security guard downstairs of the hotel: "Little Master a few hours ago It was picked up by Mr. Lu of the Lu family."

"..." With a "cluck" sound, Zhou Mingxuan pinched his knuckles.

This guy, Lu Ji, didn't say hello when he arrived in Nanshi, and sneakily tricked his brother away.

Zhou Mingxuan sighed with emotion that his brother was wrong to stay, sighed, and decided that Zhou Chenxi would let him go on a rare birthday, and then continued to work on the company.

After returning from Nanshi after his birthday, Zhou Chenxi started a series of rounds. He rushed several announcements one after another, including advertising endorsements, follow-up media interviews related to "Xianyou Ji", and several variety shows that Zhuang Jingle participated in calling him to be As a temporary guest, he went to support Zhuang Jingle with loyalty and moved Zhuang Jingle to the point of calling him a little angel.

In fact, it is because Zhou Chenxi is in an embarrassing period right now. A script that is not very good is not suitable for him, and a script that is too good doesn't like him, so he can only carefully select the ones that don't look mediocre. I couldn't be idle, so I went to participate in those temporary variety shows.

Until one day, Zhi Qi suddenly said to him: "Director Cabot sent an assistant to contact me some time ago, and it seems that he intends to let you star in his new movie."

"What new movie?"

Zhou Chenxi was shocked when he heard the name "Cabot", and blurted out, "It won't be "Battle of the Peak", right?!"

Zhi Qi said in surprise: "How do you know? Few people in the industry have heard of this news."

This week Chenxi is too familiar. In "Koi Conquers the Entertainment Circle", Luo Xinghe won the Golden Flower Award for Best Actor in one fell swoop by relying on the male lead who appeared in this movie.

Because the film was a Sino-foreign joint venture, it was later sent to the Rose International Film Festival in Country J by Cabot. As the new face of the film festival, Luo Xinghe won the Best Newcomer Award that year.

These two awards are no less than double grand slams in China.

The Golden Flower Award is the top film award in the circle. Both the judges and the review process are very professional. As a Sino-foreign joint venture film, "Battle of the Peak" can break through the siege at the awards ceremony, and let Luo Xinghe be among the powerful seniors It is not easy to get out of the middle.

In addition to the blessing of koi luck, it also proves that this movie is really good.

Zhou Chenxi had a phone call with Lu Ji during his break.

He has no confidence in some things recently and always likes to chat with Lu Ji.

After listening to him, Lu Ji said, "Battle of the Peak? I haven't watched it, but I have heard it."

"You haven't seen it..." Zhou Chenxi was a little disappointed, "I also thought that you might be the only person in the world who has seen this movie other than Luo Xinghe, I hope you can give me some spoilers. "

Lu Ji explained: "At that time, a lot of things in the company made me so overwhelmed that I didn't have time to watch movies, and I wasn't interested in Luo Xinghe's movies. Are you going to audition?"

"I don't know!" Zhou Chenxi said dejectedly, "Director Cabot just contacted Zhi Qi, and he didn't know what he meant. Maybe he just asked, if he really wanted me to audition, I would do not go?"

Lu Ji said naturally, "Why not go?"

Zhou Chenxi touched the tip of his nose: "What if I'm not as good as Luo Xinghe? What if I fail..."

"You have," Lu Ji took over his words, "be confident in yourself, you're not that bad."

Zhou Chenxi paused.

He understood that Lu Ji actually knew what he was thinking.

For Zhou Chenxi, in fact, he has never faced Luo Xinghe since his rebirth.

From the very beginning, he quit the show "Acting School" and said that he wanted to leave the entertainment industry. Later, he participated in "Carp" and came into contact with "Xianyou Ji" and Luo Dao's crew, all because he felt that it was not Luo Xinghe. Road, perhaps avoiding that story line, he can find some sense of security in it.

If he really took the place of Luo Xinghe and embarked on the main line of the story, what kind of ending would he face

It wasn't his...

Zhou Chenxi thought to himself.

Lu Ji asked him, "Chen Xi, why did you stay in the entertainment industry, or why did you decide to audition in our company and participate in the show "Carp"?"

Zhou Chenxi was stunned, and said, "In order to turn the salted fish over, in order to realize his dream, in order to prove... that fate is not invincible?"

Lu Ji said, "Don't hesitate, yes, so what are you worried about?"

Zhou Chen giggled.

Lu Ji added: "Efforts may not necessarily succeed, and if you don't work hard, you will certainly fail."

Zhou Chenxi was suddenly pressed by Lu Ji and poured a mouthful of chicken soup, and the whole person was shocked.

Lu Ji said slowly: "You have seen the second half of the story of the world, and you should know that Luo Xinghe didn't want to get rid of Zhou Xin because of you, nor because of me."

"We are not that important, but our existence itself is something he doesn't want to see, or on the contrary, it is because of your departure and failure that Luo Xinghe first eradicated your Zhou family, right?"

Zhou Chenxi's breathing stagnated.

In that book, the Zhou family really doesn't take up half a page, and even the content about the elder brother is only a few lines. In this small space, which may only be a few hundred words, the Zhou family building collapsed, and the elder brother devoted his life to Zhou Xin. His hard work was ruined, his parents were getting worse and worse, his brother was unhappy, and what happened next is not written in the book.

Because it's miserable enough, it's not worth wasting ink for them.

But Zhou Chenxi knew that they were all alive. He didn't want to see this ending, and it was precisely because of this that he shouted that he didn't want to work hard and just wanted to avoid Luo Xinghe.

If running away is not the solution, maybe he can only protect his family from harm by standing in front

Efforts may not be successful, but no efforts will certainly not be successful.

Lu Ji was right, he couldn't lose without a fight, and he couldn't give up his qualifications for the competition before he entered the battlefield.

Zhou Chenxi decided, "Okay, I'll try."

Lu Ji smiled: "Some people can be successful just casually, but who of us supporting roles didn't come all the way down?"

Lu Ji is really good at stewing chicken soup, no wonder he is so good at cooking.

Zhou Chenxi finished the bowl of chicken soup, burst into arrogance, clenched his fists, and said, "Okay, Lu Ji, wait for me to show you a winner of the Rose Film Festival!"

Who knew that when Zhi Qi heard about Zhou Chenxi's lofty ambitions, he said strangely: "When did I say that Director Cabot wanted you to play the leading role, you think so beautifully! He took a few books for supporting roles. I'm here for you to choose. If you choose, you have to go to the audition. This time, it's not only the domestic best actor, but also the foreign best actor and actress. Dozens of people are vying for a role with you. It's hard to say whether you can win or not. What spring and autumn dreams are you doing?"

Zhou Chenxi: "..."

The hardest part is not making up your mind to work hard, but finding out that you are on the road before you even set off.

Lu Ji's Golden Chicken Soup is not good, Zhou Chenxi thought, I should change a bowl of poisonous chicken soup to dry it!

The author has something to say: Xi: I have not yet succeeded in my apprenticeship!
