Whoever is missing from the earth still rotates the same.
The angry departure of the Duan family, apart from giving people new topics, did not affect the progress of the auction dinner.
The three of the Luo family also walked away and continued to entertain the guests.
Ye Tang and Zhao Zhenfang still sat down at the 5th table. Before they arrived, the other seats at this table were already full of guests. They all witnessed the good show of Luo and Duan at close range.
Next to Ye Tang is a middle-aged man with a big beard. She heard this man say to his female partner, an elegant lady, "Just now it was the part that troubled me the most when filming. No actor could perform well. Even the so-called old drama bones are not in good shape, temperament, demeanor... these invisible and intangible things are difficult to imitate."
The lady covered her mouth and smiled, "If there is a drama with President Ba next time, please invite Mr. Luo (Luo Rongcheng) to appear as a guest."
"That would have to be a sky-high remuneration. It is feasible to ask him to invest in my film."
They didn't evade anyone when they spoke. Ye Tang found out that the middle-aged man was the great director Shang Guanjian, and the woman was his third wife Qiu Xia.
Seven years ago, Shangguanjian was nominated for an Oscar with his leading film "Sheng Shi". Although he did not win the award, it was the only film in mainland China that broke into the Oscar in these years. Shangguanjian's career as a director also reached its peak that year, and "Sheng Shi" established his authoritative position in the Chinese director circle.
Ye Tang didn’t pay attention to the entertainment industry before, and she had never watched "Sheng Shi". The reason she remembered so clearly was because the event of "Sheng Shi" competing for Oscar and her parents' death happened almost at the same time, and they appeared at the same time. News headlines, one joy and one sadness, have become common people’s after-dinner talks.
Obviously, Shangguanjian's value has doubled in recent years, and he has successfully made it into the upper circle. Only when he meets Luo Rongcheng is he qualified to sit here.
As for Qiu Xia, she is also a well-known figure. Before marrying Shangguanjian, she was a domestic first-line actress, and the pay was higher than many first-line male stars. After becoming the wife of Shangguan, she transformed into a producer and screenwriter, and produced a lot of products. excellent work.
When Ye Tang was a teenager, he liked watching movies starring Qiu Xia, so he looked at her more.
In the end, Qiu Xia found out. She turned her head to look at the little girl and smiled, "Do you want my signature?"
Ye Tang:? ? ?
"Um...no," she shook her head repeatedly.
"Don't be shy, I know you kids like duplicity," Qiu Xia blinked, "Did you bring pen and paper?"
"Did not bring."
Ye Tang said she didn't bring it. She was really not interested in chasing stars or signing autographs.
Qiu Xia glanced at the Chanel beige handbag she was holding, and smiled and said, "It's okay, I brought a pen, so I'll sign it on your bag."
Ye Tang: "..."
She really couldn't resist Qiu Xia's enthusiasm, got up and walked to Qiu Xia, and handed her her handbag.
Qiu Xia took out the marker from her bag and asked her, "Your name is Ye Tang, right?"
"Do you know me?!" Ye Tang pretended to be surprised, but she was indeed surprised that Qiu Xia knew her name.
"You are very brave. You dare to challenge big companies and the Education Bureau. When I was your age, the teacher didn't dare to say a word of criticism."
Qiu Xia didn't seem to be polite, and Ye Tang saw the smile in her eyes.
The handbag area is not large, so she only wrote Ye Tang and her name on the bag, and she returned the bag to her, "I look forward to your online exam and hope you can get good results."
"Thank you!" Ye Tang took it with both hands. The marker pen did not dry, she could only hold the edge of the bag carefully, and returned to her seat. Before she was seated, she heard Teacher Lu's voice, "Sister Zhao, Ye Tang , Come, come, I will introduce you my good friends."
Lucy was standing in the aisle next to them, and beside her was an old lady of the same age, Shen Yi, Luo Xingchuan's grandmother.
Educational positions are present, and frequent appearances in Vanity Fair have a bad influence on reputation. Gu Lianyu did not attend the banquet and Shen Yi did not sit in the front row. Both her and Lucy's seats were in the corner.
Zhao Zhenfang got up immediately. This is the purpose of her coming here tonight. No big director or star, there is no title of professor or principal to attract her!
The grandparents walked towards them.
As soon as they left, Shangguanjian whispered to his wife, "People don't want your signature at all, you still forced to give it to her!"
Qiu Xia covered her mouth and smiled, "This little girl is very cute, isn't she?"
Shangguanjian and Qiu Xia have been in the entertainment industry for decades. They have seen so many actors and actresses. Everyone in this circle works and lives wearing masks. The couple's sharp eyes can screen the appearance and distinguish the acting skills. Ye Tang's pretense is too clumsy.
Qiu Xia has seen too many hypocritical girls, and finally meets one who is not artificial, of course, she has to tease.
On the other side, Lucy, acting as an intermediary, gave brief introductions to both parties. She pointed to Zhao Zhenfang and said, “She is Yelaoshr’s wife, a very good old sister.” She pointed to Ye Tang again, “She is Ye Tang. ."
"Mrs. Gu, hello," Ye Tang greeted the elderly with a strange name.
Zhao Zhenfang also followed her and said,
Shen Yi smiled, "You don't need to be so restrained, you can call me Lily, just like you call Lucy."
When she was speaking, she was also watching Ye Tang. In fact, she didn't like this social occasion very much. If it weren't for meeting Ye Tang, she wouldn't come today.
"Your English is very good, can you have a simple conversation with me?" Shen Yi said this sentence in English, speaking very fast.
"Of course it can, it's my honor," Ye Tang reacted quickly, perfectly connected.
The smile on Shen Yi's face deepened. Shen Yi was good at British English. When Ye Tang was translating for Kevin in the live broadcast room, she spoke American English. She naturally thought she was learning American English. Unexpectedly, facing each other now, what she blurted out was also a British accent, and she couldn't hear a single accent.
Is she so talented in language? Can you switch accents at will? !
Shen Yi continued to communicate in-depth with Ye Tang in English. Lucy did not participate, but nodded repeatedly; Zhao Zhenfang could not understand, but she was very proud of her granddaughter talking with the old professor!
At this time, a ridiculous voice came in, "What are you talking about so happy? I wonder if I can join in the fun?" He was also fluent in English.
Shen Yi looked at him and said in surprise, "Dean Dong, why are you here?"
"Your grandson called me and asked me to come and eat. I really want to eat meat every day. Don't call me the dean. I have retired long ago. I am nothing but a bad old man."
Ye Tang heard this familiar tone of speech, and she didn't need to look back to know that behind her was Professor Dong Qianqiu, her former university tutor.
