After the filming was over, Qi Cong didn't need to worry about the makeup on his face. After entering the bathroom, Qi Cong immediately took off his mask, walked to the washbasin, turned on the faucet, and poured water on his face.
Touching the hot and swollen eyes with cool water relieves the discomfort of the eyes, and also provides an environment where some uncontrollable liquids can be released freely.
After a while, Qi Cong threw the water on his face again, and waited until his emotions had calmed down before he straightened up. Looking at himself in the mirror with red eyes, he evaded his gaze and wiped off the water stains on his face with a tissue. Pick up the mask and put it back on.
When walking out of the bathroom, Qi Cong was stopped by someone who was unexpected but not unexpected. He turned sideways, looked at Lian Pengxing, who had been waiting outside the bathroom for a long time, instinctively raised his hand to adjust his mask, and asked, "Senior called me?"
Lian Pengxing nodded, gestured to a corner of the garden, and invited, "Can I say a few words alone? I want to tell you something about Xiao Liu."
Xiao Liu.
Qi Cong's heart moved, looked at Lian Pengxing's gentle and sincere attitude at this time, and walked over.
The two walked to a corner with few people. After confirming that there was no one around, Lian Pengxing looked at Qi Cong and said, "You fell into the water this time... Maybe it was caused by Xiao Liu."
Qi Cong was surprised and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Even Peng Xing was silent for two seconds before replying: "Xiao Liu also came to the crew yesterday, and my new assistant saw him sneak into the prop room. After you were rescued yesterday, the crew immediately checked the wheelchair you were sitting in. , found it to be a bit oddly broken, like it had been broken on purpose."
So the person the little actor saw outside the prop room that day was really Xiao Liu
Qi Cong gathered his thoughts, his eyes fell on Lian Pengxing's face, and said, "Senior suspects that Xiao Liu broke the wheelchair I'm sitting on? But what good will it do to him? I don't think there is any grudge with Xiao Liu. "
Lian Pengxing looked embarrassed and replied: "He probably did this to make me happy and keep his job. I wanted to quit him before. Maybe he just wanted to prank you at first, but he didn't expect it to be troublesome. Da, he made you fall into the water, so he hurried to save you... Anyway, sorry, I didn't take care of the assistant. If you want to make amends, I can do it, you can mention it. "
Really honest.
Qi Cong probably understood Lian Pengxing's intention.
The wheelchair damage is suspected to be artificial, and the crew is unlikely to be able to hide it from Zhao Zhenxun. With Zhao Zhenxun's character, if he was told that the damage to the wheelchair was related to Xiao Liu, then he would definitely suspect that Xiao Liu was instructed by Lian Pengxing, and then take the opportunity to clean up Lian Pengxing secretly. Or, Zhao Zhenxun may think of some of the previous things to Lian Pengxing.
And Xiao Liu's amnesia. Xiao Liu's amnesia made Lian Pengxing no way to know the specific situation of the day, in case his client found something when he fell into the water that day, or something else happened when he fell into the water... So in order to avoid unknowing situations After being caught and set on fire, even Peng Xinglai confessed and offered to compensate.
All in all, Lian Pengxing wanted to trade things for him, and didn't want to make a big fuss about the incident.
A wise man who knows the times.
Qi Cong didn't answer the words of compensation, but asked: "Why does Xiao Liu think that you will be happy if you prank me?"
Lian Peng Xing's expression was stiff, and he was silent for more than ten seconds before raising his eyes to look at Qi Cong and reply: "Because I have been comparing our appearances and acting skills in private, I am afraid that you will compare me after the show airs. It has developed better than me. My gentleness is just a character, and you... I can feel it, but you are not. Qi Cong, you may not realize that your temperament is really hard for those who are emotionally cold inside. It's so attractive."
Qi Cong was stunned for a rare moment because Lian Pengxing was too honest and commented on his temperament.
It was the first time he had heard people say that about him.
He looked at Lian Pengxing, examined all of Lian Pengxing's expressions, and then said, "I have a question for you."
Lian Pengxing hurriedly said, "You ask."
"Has Xiao Liu's personality changed since he moved into Dingli? I hope you can answer this question honestly and earnestly."
Lian Peng Xing was stunned. He looked at Qi Cong, although he didn't understand why Qi Cong asked this, but he still thought about it carefully, and then thought of something, his brows slowly wrinkled, and replied: "One thing, he talks more and his taste for food also changes. And... and always mentioning you in front of me. I thought he became your fan at one point."
really.
The last doubt in Qi Cong's heart disappeared. He took a step closer to Lian Pengxing and lowered his voice: "From the time I joined the group to the present, I will not go back to the source of everything that happened to me, to find out who is the real mastermind behind me."
He specifically bites the word "true" harder. Lian Pengxing received the hint and his expression changed.
"I don't know which one you participated in, but... there is no next time." Qi Cong clicked, and stepped back to restore the volume to normal, "I am very grateful to Xiao Liu for saving me, I will tell Zhao Zhenxun about our conversation today. What to do, he will contact you." After speaking, he stopped looking at Lian Pengxing and turned to leave.
After a quarter of two in the afternoon, Qi Cong bid farewell to the crew, took Xiao Han and Zhao Zhenxun back to the hotel in advance to help him pack up, and set off from the crew to the airport directly, preparing to participate in tonight's new song promotion program as originally planned.
On the way, he told Zhao Zhenxun about his previous conversation with Lian Pengxing. After hearing this, Zhao Zhenxun darkened his face, pondered for a few seconds, and said, "I will contact him. It's private rules, what do you want? I I can help you talk."
Qi Cong remembered how Xiao Liu looked dazed and shy when he left the hospital when he was discharged from the hospital, touched the wound on the palm of his hand that was scratched by the glass, and replied, "I only have one request, don't implicate Xiao Liu, he did nothing wrong. What... if you can, please send him back to his original trajectory, and don't let what happened during his amnesia affect his life."
Zhao Zhenxun was surprised, and then remembered Qi Cong's life beyond recognition due to an amnesia. He understood why Qi Cong made this request, sighed in his heart, nodded and replied, "Okay, I'll help you talk."
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Qi Cong got on the plane back to Beishi. Two and a half hours later, the plane landed, and Qi Cong, accompanied by Zhao Zhenxun, got into the nanny car that Manju had driven to pick him up in advance.
The makeup artist and stylist who were waiting in the car stepped forward immediately after Qi Cong got into the car, and worked together to help Qi Cong change clothes and style.
Zhao Zhenxun sat opposite Qi Cong, took the tablet and said to Qi Cong: "Your new song was originally scheduled to be released at 6 o'clock today, but because of a day's delay yesterday, you couldn't come back at 6 o'clock today to participate in the music interview of Penguin Music, so I decided to change the release time of your new song to 8:00 pm. It is ten past 6:00. We can be in the interview hall of Penguin Music in about an hour and a half. After arriving, you will start preparing immediately, and the live broadcast will start at 8:00 pm Do the interview. This is the interview process and interview outline, so you should read it.”
Qi Cong took the tablet that Zhao Zhenxun handed over and looked down.
"Mr. Qi Cong, keep this posture and don't move, I'll sweep your eyeshadow for you."
Qi Cong didn't move after hearing the words, and quickly scanned the interview outline on the tablet. Out of the corner of the eye, he looked at the people in the car who were busy for him, and tightened the hand holding the tablet without a trace.
I really want to be an artist.
It's a pity... but it's destined to never get close to anyone.
…
At 7:30 p.m., a promotional image with the theme "Rebirth" was hung on the homepage of Penguin Music.
A few users of Penguin Music noticed the promotional image that suddenly appeared, and wondered about the mysterious guest with a question mark on it. They clicked in and took a look, and found that it was actually a custom interview room that Penguin Music rarely opened, and it showed I was preparing for the arrival of the guests. I was surprised. Some of the users who were idle and curious simply stayed in the live broadcast room. When the live broadcast started, they wanted to see who the mysterious guest in position C of the airborne homepage promotion picture was.
At 7:40 p.m., a blogger named "Qi Cong" quietly appeared on Weibo and Lewan, two mainstream social software. In a few minutes, Manju Entertainment, Manju Music Studio, Manju Meizhao and other Manju official blog accounts, work accounts, and publicity accounts have successively followed these two accounts.
Fans of Manju artists who are following Manju's accounts noticed this movement, and followed their attention, and then they were shocked when they saw Qi Cong, a new verified account, and immediately understood what was going on. Excitedly, the topic of "Qi Cong Opens a Blog | Entering Lewan" was brought up.
At 7:50 p.m., Shen Jia's Weibo and Lewan accounts went online one after another and followed Qi Cong. In the next few minutes, even Peng Xing and other leading actors of "The Legend of Qinggu" also followed Qi Cong's account one after another, and finally even the official blog of "The Legend of Qinggu" also followed Qi Cong's Weibo account.
Actor fans, book fans, and passers-by who are following the show have noticed this change. The number of fans of Qi Cong's account has begun to increase rapidly. At the same time, #qicongkaibo# and #qicong entered Lewan# These two topics appeared on Weibo and Lewan's hot search tail respectively.
At 7:55 p.m., the opening advertisements on Weibo and Lewan suddenly changed into a progress bar with a five-minute countdown of "new students in progress".
At the same time, the C-position promotional image of Penguin Music also turned into a five-minute countdown bar, and the countdown was also hung in the live broadcast room connected to the promotional image.
At this time, sensitive netizens have realized something. During this time, the name "Qi Cong" has been shaken countless times on Weibo, and again because of the name "Qi Cong".
At 7:58, Qi Cong's blank Weibo changed the background of Weibo. It was a vast fog. In the depths of the fog, there was a cold figure with his back to the camera, his head slightly sideways, his face was blocked by the fog, and he could not see clearly.
At 7:59, Qi Cong's custom avatar changed to a watercolor bird rushing out of the fog.
At 7:59:50, the Penguin Music promotional image, Weibo, and the opening image of LePlay changed synchronously, and a bird egg with a beautiful pattern appeared. As the countdown gradually approached zero, cracks gradually appeared on the bird egg. Then the cracks got bigger a little bit.
There is a soft piano sound, the rhythm is slow and fast, like a baby bird pecking and hitting the eggshell inside the egg.
Countless netizens who were impatient to watch the opening screen and advertisements were attracted by this picture and unconsciously cast their attention.
The second hand moves a little bit, and the countdown jumps to the single digit... Eight... Seven... Six...
…
In Hengcheng, in a hotel room with no lights on, Gu Xun sat on the bay window, leaning against the big cat doll behind him, his face was illuminated by the light from the phone screen, his eyebrows were quiet.
The sound of the piano piece became lower, and the sound of the cracked eggshell became louder.
"Four..." Gu Xun suddenly said in a low voice, holding the phone in both hands, he lifted it slightly, and looked up at the screen, as if looking up at someone he placed on the top of his heart.
"three… "
The shells were loose, and the fluffy critters showed a little feather.
"two… "
pat.
The eggshell was lifted, and a young bird with beautiful feathers appeared, and spread its wings with a cheerful chirping.
Gu Xun reached out and touched it, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "One."
The beautiful colorful bird circled around the screen flexibly, and then flew towards the screen with the sudden changing rhythm of the music.
call.
The soft-colored petals filled the screen, and then gradually changed, forming the four swash characters "Rebirth".
The screen disappears.
On the small table not far away, in the open live broadcast room, after the four swash characters "Rebirth" disappeared, the picture suddenly brightened, and colorful birds flew over the forest against the rising sun, accompanied by the sound of music. Below the forest, a line of small characters appeared—
"reborn"
Singer: Qi Cong.
Gu Xun still held his mobile phone, looked at the Weibo page revealed after the screen disappeared and Qi Cong's homepage searched earlier on it, clicked Follow, and then looked at the little bird who was happily playing with his parents in the woods in the live broadcast room. , the voice is soft and gentle.
"Congratulations, the new song is online... fly well."
