Romance of the Stars

Chapter 21

Views:

Many reporters and media came to the opening ceremony of "Snow Breaking", and the camera flashes were so bright that people's eyes were almost blinded. Fortunately, the sun is dazzling, so one more flash or one less flash did not make much difference.

Special staff led the fans of the actors to a fixed venue, and the fans gathered in groups according to their idols, shouting their idols' names. At first glance, the voices shouting for Lu Yinbing and Xia Yitong were evenly matched, and there was another wave of similar voices for the young actor Yu Qingyan. Then there were the names of other actors who tried their best not to be drowned out by the noisy voices. Even though they were more experienced, their status in the entertainment industry had long been unshakable.

It's a bit ironic, but that's the reality.

Xia Yitong was wearing a T-shirt and hot pants. Under the scorching sun of midsummer, she was covered in sweat and her whole body was sticky. She moved her arms and felt like she was soaked in water. She looked at Lu Yinbing who was standing next to her.

Lu Yinbing was also dressed in a cool summer outfit, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and her beautifully shaped thin lips moved slightly.

"Damn it."

A low national curse entered the ears of Xia Yitong, whose hearing was far better than that of ordinary people. She was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had heard it wrongly.

"How long will it take? I'm going to get heat stroke."

Xia Yitong tried hard to prick up her ears.

"Will I die if I move to a place with a pergola?"

"It's over, it's over. I'm going to get tanned again. I just did the maintenance yesterday."

"I hate turning on the TV in the summer."

"Didn't that old bastard Qin Hanlin tell me that it would be fine soon? He lied to me again!" He gritted his teeth.

"How long? It must have been an hour now."

Xia Yitong raised his hand and looked at his watch: only ten minutes had passed.

“It’s so hot, so hot.”

“I’m on fire.”

"I can't stand any longer."

"Fuck it, I quit!"

Xia Yitong thought that Lu Yinbing was going to Qin Hanlin and said that she needed to rest for a while. Qin Hanlin was on Xia Yitong's left side, and Lu Yinbing had to go around her to get there, so she took a step back to make way for Lu Yinbing.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yinbing had no intention of leaving. She looked at Lu Yinbing in surprise, and Lu Yinbing looked back at her in surprise. Normally, Xia Yitong would not hear her voice, and she did not expect that she would hear her complaints. The two looked at each other, Xia Yitong smiled at her, and Lu Yinbing responded politely, with a very beautiful smile. After laughing, she continued to look at the media reporters and fans below, and waved to the fans from time to time.

Xia Yitong's mind was no longer on the opening ceremony. She was trying hard to distinguish the sound she wanted to hear most from the sounds coming from all directions.

Qin Hanlin finished speaking.

Lu Yinbing said, "It's been two hours. You finally came down. Why don't you stand there until the end of time?"

Lu Yinbing was silently complaining on the side, while Xia Yitong was smiling particularly brightly beside him.

The fans once again burst into passionate confessions: "Lu Yinbing I love you ah ah ah!!!"

Lu Yinbing waved and muttered, "It seems that place is even hotter than here. The crew didn't even provide water for us to drink. They are too stingy. I'll ask Xiaoxi to ask someone to buy some."

Xia Yitong's body shook violently, and then a piece of her heart collapsed softly. She turned her head to look at her beautiful face again, and something sparkled in her eyes.

A long time ago, she was also one of the many fans below. When she was shouting until she was thirsty, a crew member happened to bring them water, saying "Teacher Lu asked us to buy it, for fear that you would be thirsty." Lu Yinbing was surrounded by people and walked away for a long distance, but she looked back at them worriedly and asked them to go back early. Many fans cried on the spot.

The scene at that time seemed to be still in front of her eyes. Xia Yitong looked at the enthusiastic fans in front of the stage and saw countless equally young and fanatical faces among them, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Lu Yinbing hooked his hand subtly at Xiaoxi in the audience. Xiaoxi, who was paying close attention, trotted over. Lu Yinbing whispered a few words into her ear, and Xiaoxi nodded and left.

Several large bags of mineral water and iced mung bean soup were carried by the crew members and sent to the fans. They whispered something, and the fans looked in the direction of Lu Yinbing on the stage one by one, with tears clearly flashing in their eyes.

After drinking the water, they seemed to have endless energy, and they shouted until their throats broke: "Lu Yinbing! I love you! Lu Yinbing! I love you!"

The other two core forces were so grateful that many of them defected to Lu Yinbing's fan camp. For a while, only Lu Yinbing's name could be heard in the audience, and finally they slowly redistributed.

Some people may think it is exaggerated, but when the staff said, "This is xxx because he was afraid you would be thirsty, so he bought it specially," only xxx's fans can understand this feeling. Emotions are contagious, one person can often lead another person, and these two people can lead a group of people.

It felt like you carefully prepared a gift for someone who was very far away from you, so far away that you could never talk to her face to face in this life and could only admire her from afar. You had no hope from beginning to end. But she not only saw it, but also took it gently and said, "It looks good, I like it very much, thank you."

It is not just a bottle of water or a bowl of mung bean soup, but it represents the acceptance and appreciation of your thoughts.

Xia Yitong lowered her eyes, holding back the tears that suddenly welled up in her eyes, and silently said in her heart along with the fans in the audience: "Lu Yinbing, I love you."

The protagonist, who is loved by many people, is unaware of this and is still madly complaining about why this boring opening ceremony has not ended yet.

The roasted pig had already been placed on the incense table. After worshiping the gods, the crew members stood in the order of their roles in the movie. Qin Hanlin stood in the middle, and the two beautiful male and female protagonists stood on his left and right, smiling brightly. The man in his forties had happy wrinkles on his face.

Praying to gods before starting filming is an unwritten custom in the entertainment industry. Not everyone is superstitious. A large number of people would rather believe it than not. Praying to gods may not necessarily lead to smooth sailing, but if you don't pray to gods and filming doesn't go smoothly, people will definitely blame the gods in the end.

Therefore, every time a movie or TV series starts filming, they have to pray to the gods. As for roasted pigs? Most of the time, the crew will eat them themselves after praying to the gods. However, this one probably can't be eaten. It was left outside in the sun for so long in the hot summer that it was damaged by the sun.

Next is the media interview time, um, indoors.

Lu Yinbing flashed into the room as fast as a dehydrated fish. The assistants brought water and wiped her sweat... She was not sweating, so the one who was wiping her sweat brought her a wet towel to wipe her arms to cool her down. Xiaoxi showed her if there was any important news on her phone.

Xia Yitong had already gone to the side and accepted an interview in advance in front of the media.

Xia Yitong was already a hot topic on Weibo every other day, and she was even more popular recently. Reporters all hoped to pry something out of her mouth, and they all rushed to ask questions that made Xia Yitong laugh. She made a temporary stop gesture, pushed away the microphone and recorder that were almost against her face, and said with a smile: "Come one by one, I can't hear you clearly if you ask me like this."

She glanced at the faces of the reporters, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She said, "You go first."

The person she picked out happened to be the female reporter who had her eyes fixed at the airport a while ago. The female reporter was fully prepared, thinking that she would not fall for the beauty trap this time, so she calmly said, "I'm a reporter from Supernova Entertainment. May I ask Yi Tong, as a newcomer on the big screen, what do you think about the online rumors that you are 'marrying up' the crew of Snow Breaker?"

"Is it too high to marry?" Xia Yitong saw her short figure struggling to lift the recorder from the crowd, so she took it and thought about it carefully. She said to the camera, "I think what the netizens said is quite pertinent. Thank you for finding a way out for me. As a newcomer, I can star in Director Qin's movie for the first time and work with so many veteran actors. It is indeed too high to marry. To be honest, it has been a long time since I passed Director Qin's audition. Now I feel like I am dreaming and I don't think I am qualified. Anyway, I will work hard and will not let those who support me down."

This statement is very effective and avoids the main point. It not only expresses her modesty, but also inadvertently reveals that she passed Qin Hanlin's audition. Scolding her is equivalent to scolding Qin Hanlin for being blind.

The female reporter wanted to continue asking questions, but was pushed away by others.

I asked some questions about movies one after another, but Xia Yitong fooled me by saying, "Director Qin won't let me talk about it, I'll be in trouble if I do." As for the gossip, don't even think about getting any information out of her. She played dumb, acted cute, did Tai Chi, and occasionally flirted with honey traps. After the interview, the reporter was exhausted. But I still had to ask, and I had to keep competing with her. What if

Lu Yinbing came over here, because according to convention, the male and female protagonists had to accept media interviews together. Xia Yitong had been accepting interviews alone for quite some time, and it would be rude if she didn't come.

Lu Yinbing drank a bowl of iced mung bean soup and was in a good mood.

Who would have thought that the reporters and media, who were so enthusiastic just now, were all speechless when they saw her, as if they had been mute. They rolled their eyes around, looking at each other, wondering who would be the first to risk their lives and step on the landmine.

A second later, everyone turned their eyes to the reporter from "Entertainment Star Seven Days" who was in the corner and wanted to hide himself in the ground.

Reporter from "Entertainment Star Seven Days": "..."
