The middle-aged man who lost his temper, Li Zhao knew. At that time, his posters were posted in the streets, countless women were crazy for him, and some media even called him a peerless beauty.
But beauty will eventually grow old one day.
Shen Kang, who was once a smash hit, has gradually become bleak over the years. In recent years, he can only play the father of the hero and heroine in major idol dramas. Whenever a nostalgic clip video comes out, netizens will always sigh with emotion. At that time, Shen Kang was so good-looking, and time turned the handsome man into a middle-aged greasy uncle.
"Hello, Teacher Shen." Li Zhao said hello when he saw the scolded dancer, who was about to cry.
Shen Kang didn't expect someone to come from the small corner of the backstage, he turned his head to look at Li Zhao, and squeezed an unnatural smile on his face.
When Shen Kang turned around, Li Zhao realized that his performance costume had been splashed with a large amount of milk tea stains, which was sticky and sticky, and looked a little embarrassed.
"Hello." Shen Kang remembered what he said just now, afraid that Li Zhao would think too much, and hurriedly explained to Li Zhao: "These two little girls poured milk tea all over me, and the staff said that there is only one set of costumes, which is really not good. I can only cancel my show, so I'm a little anxious to get angry and make you laugh."
Asking a senior to say "you" to him, Li Zhao felt a little uncomfortable, so he spoke politely to Shen Kang and eased the atmosphere.
When he was a child, he liked watching Shen Kang's "Sword Hero", and he often argued with the friends in the orphanage over who is the real swordsman. Shen Kang's current appearance is far from that of the suave hero in "Excalibur", and even in his pleasing smile, there is a bit of shrinkage.
After the two dancers left, Li Zhao took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with Shen Kang: "I liked your performance of "Excalibur" when I was a child. After the performance, please sign my name for me."
Shen Kang was a little flattered, and he bowed slightly: "It's all a play from many years ago. I didn't expect a young man like you to watch it when he was a child."
"A classic is always a classic, and it will never go out of style."
"Mr. Li." The staff of Green Pepper Video greeted him politely when they saw Li Zhao. He glanced at the hands that Li Zhao and Shen Kang held together: "Mr. Shen is also here."
"Mr. Shen's costume was accidentally splashed with milk tea, so I'll come and see."
"These are all trivial matters." The staff said enthusiastically, "Mr. Shen, please come with me, there are spare costumes here."
Polite and polite attitude, a world of difference from before.
"That's really bothering you." Li Zhaochao thanked the staff, turned his head and bowed slightly to Shen Kang: "Mr. Shen, we'll see you later, don't forget my signature."
Shen Kang saw that Li Zhao was helping him, and his eyes were slightly warm: "I must not forget, I must not forget."
"Mr. Shen, please come this way." The staff took Shen Kang to the locker room, and the staff on the opposite side said, "Please change Mr. Shen into suitable performance clothes, Mr. Shen's show is relatively advanced, everyone hurry up."
Soon Shen Kang changed his clothes, and even a make-up artist came over to give him makeup and hair again, and no one mentioned the cancellation of the show again. Smiley, don't offend anyone.
In the backstage rest room, Da Ke unscrewed the thermos cup and handed it to Li Zhao: "Zhao Zhao, don't be nervous, your show is scheduled for prime time, and the traffic will definitely be at the top."
"I'm not nervous." Li Zhao took a sip from the cup: "It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Think about it." Zhang Xiaoyuan knew what Li Zhao was thinking, and reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "This circle is ups and downs, and those who can continue to thrive are those people. As for other people, they must learn to accept being watched by the audience. Forgotten fate."
"Shen Kang had a better life before. After he said in front of the media that a certain popular artist was lacking in acting skills, he was hated. In the past two years, the script has not been received, so he relied on going to counties and towns to earn some money. Tonight It's probably not an accident that he was splashed with milk tea."
"He is also unlucky. Not long after he offended this well-known artist, his wife fell ill and spent money like water every day. If it wasn't for his wife's illness, he probably wouldn't have to come out so lowly to make money."
"It's all a year or two ago. Even if the popular artist is angry, it should have been over long ago. Why are you still chasing after him?" Li Zhao frowned, no wonder Shen Kang took a sip to a newcomer like him Teacher, "you" one sentence at a time, it turned out to be afraid of being tossed.
"Who knows." Zhang Xiaoyuan sighed: "There is a lot of pressure in this circle, there are so many things, and everyone has a temper."
It's not that he put gold on the faces of his artists. If Li Zhao wasn't there tonight, Qingjiao Video might have canceled Shen Kang's show. Anyway, it's normal to temporarily cancel one or two shows like this kind of large-scale party. Shen Kang is an old actor with little attention.
At the beginning of the party, Li Zhao went to the guest viewing area. Sitting on his left was a signed artist of Qingjiao Video. Because of his popularity on the Internet, he could be regarded as the first brother of Qingjiao. Sitting on his right is a second-tier female artist with an abnormally stiff chin.
The live broadcast camera swept across the guest area from time to time. When the camera swept over again, Li Zhao noticed the artist on the right and suddenly leaned towards him, and he moved to the left subconsciously.
Pear fans saw this scene online.
"The invincible straight man is really hammered."
"I made an emoji that doesn't touch me, does anyone need it?"
Li Zhao didn't know that his actions made the pear fans laugh. He watched the performance on the stage seriously, and sometimes he laughed even happier than the ordinary audience at the scene. He had long forgotten that he had idol baggage. thing.
The performers were throwing stalks on the stage, and Li Zhao was very happy to receive them off the stage.
Liu Jiaojiao felt that Li Zhao, who was sitting beside her, was a strange person. The live broadcast of this kind of webcast evening show was even more devoted than ordinary audiences. It was like... like a village gun that had never seen the world.
As a small traffic that is becoming popular, can't you be more reserved and dignified
Which fans can stand such a righteous master
The pear fans open the green pepper video just to watch their cubs. The green pepper video camera is also very understandable. I give Zhaozhao a shot from time to time. In each shot, their family's Zhaozhao is watching the stage attentively, looking very happy.
"I suspect that the cub has forgotten that he is still a guest performer."
"Cubs are very happy to see."
"Hahahaha, cub, wake up, it's time for your show!"
When the Lin Lizhao show started, the staff took Li Zhao to the backstage, and the hair and makeup artist gave him another make-up.
"Mr. Li, everything is according to the rehearsal, come on." The staff took Li Zhao to the elevator and gave Li Zhao a high-five.
"Thank you." Li Zhao bowed and squatted, showing a bright smile to the staff.
The staff was dazzled by this smile. After Li Zhao took the stage, he covered his chest and said to his colleagues, "My eldest sister, who is in her thirties, was fascinated by the smile of a child."
"Calm down, you're not a sister, you're an auntie." Colleagues ruthlessly exposed.
Li Zhao sang an episode of "The Domineering Girl" on the stage. This song was not difficult, and Li Zhao finished the song smoothly, which attracted shouts from the audience.
The host stepped onto the stage: "Zhao Zhao, the audience at the scene is so enthusiastic, shouldn't you perform another show for us?"
Immediately, the scene shouted loudly.
"Everyone knows that I don't have any other specialties." Li Zhao looked down at the stage: "I am thick-skinned enough to stay on stage for a while, and I will never leave."
"That's not good. If you don't leave, if the director sees you as handsome and asks you to be the host of the show, wouldn't I be unemployed?" Li: "Let's go after the performance, I won't leave you."
After talking and laughing, Li Zhao performed an auspicious tune on the pan flute and returned to the backstage.
"Mr. Li has worked hard." Several staff members came up to him and helped him remove his ears: "Your performance just now was great."
"Thank you, I wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year."
"Thank you, Teacher Li, and I wish you prosperity and good luck."
After chatting with the staff, Li Zhao found Shen Kang backstage who had removed his makeup and changed into his performance clothes: "Mr. Shen."
"Mr. Li." Shen Kang didn't expect Li Zhao to actually come to him, and was a little surprised.
"Don't you forget the signature you just said?"
Shen Kang's heart is unspeakably sour. In the past two years, this is probably the most enthusiastic popular actor for him. From the bag he brought with him, he took out a still photo of himself when he was young, and signed his name on it seriously: "I didn't forget, I didn't forget."
"Thank you." Taking the autographed photo with both hands, Li Zhao smiled happily: "When I was a child, my friends and I were all vying to be the Excalibur Heroes. Now, am I certified as the master?"
Shen Kang's eyes were hot, and he nodded: "Forget it."
He has been beautiful in his life, and he has fallen to this point, and there are still people who are rare in the roles he has played, and it is not a waste of time in the entertainment industry.
After getting the autograph, Li Zhao took a photo with Shen Kang before returning to his dressing room to remove his makeup and change his clothes.
"Don't wait until the party is over?" Zhang Xiaoyuan asked, "I think you were very interested in the party just now."
"Don't watch it, there are still people waiting for me to go back for a late night snack." Li Zhao hurriedly walked to the elevator: "I went back late last night, so he didn't sleep until the middle of the night."
"Zhaozhao, your friend is so kind to you." Da Ke sighed with emotion: "My brothers are like this at most."
"So we're not brothers, we're better than brothers." Li Zhao walked into the elevator and found that the female artist who was sitting with him just now was also inside.
Li Zhao, who had taken off her stage makeup, had fair and tender skin, with the sunshine and vitality unique to a big boy of this age, which made the female artist take a second look.
Wei Hua is a bit strange, but she does look good without makeup, and her skin is so good that it doesn't look like an actor who often needs to wear makeup.
Dake and Zhang Xiaoyuan stood in the middle, separating Li Zhao from the female artist. Their family Zhaozhao is still a child, if they casually have scandals with other actresses, it will affect their commercial value.
The elevator door opened, and the people on both sides said goodbye politely and then parted ways, vividly showing what "we are not familiar with".
After Li Zhao's show ended, Qingjiao Entertainment found that the traffic of their show began to drop slightly, and even the comments in the barrage area also decreased significantly.
The program director shook his head and sighed: "If you can come to a few popular artists and arrange them in different time periods, the traffic of this show tonight will be stable."
After he finished speaking, he laughed first. As the New Year is approaching, many young people accompany their families, watching TV or visiting relatives. For celebrities, going to the TV station to attend the party is the best choice.
Li Zhao's quota was set early. Later, "The Domineering Girl" continued to become popular, and Li Zhao became a newcomer to Strawberry Entertainment recently. They thought that Li Zhao's team would find an excuse to push their live webcast party. I didn't expect Li Zhao to come under the pressure of being laughed at by others.
With Strawberry Entertainment's public relations ability, it wouldn't be too difficult to help Li Zhao decide on a satellite TV Spring Festival Gala show, so Li Zhao's choice to come to Green Pepper Video was a pleasant surprise.
Probably reading "Domineering Female President" is the incense love broadcast on the green pepper video.
It is rare to be able to miss the old love.
After Li Zhao's performance, he harvested a lot of rainbow farts on the Internet. Just when the pear fans were happily licking their screens, their cubs finally updated Weibo again!
Li Zhao V: I used to always follow my friends to become the Swordsman. Today I am finally the Swordsman recognized by the master. Thank you Mr. Shen for his signature. I will keep it well and show it to my friends. [picture].
The photo of Li Zhao and Shen Kang quickly brought back memories of countless young people when they were young, and even began to argue about which female hero the Swordsman would prefer.
"Zhaozhao, do you want to help Shen Kang increase his exposure?" Zhang Xiaoyuan saw Li Zhao's Weibo.
"Didn't you say that it would cost a lot of money for Mr. Shen's wife to get sick?" Li Zhao was sending a message to Yan Ting, so he didn't raise his head: "With the exposure, it would be good for Mr. Shen to get more cooperation."
He understands the sense of helplessness waiting for money to save his life. Last year, in order to collect the surgery fee for Sister Xia, a few of their friends in the welfare home worked so hard to make money that they were about to sell blood and kidneys.
"You." Zhang Xiaoyuan brushed a handful of Li Zhao's hair: "Sword Hero, he is indeed a chivalrous man."
"Hehe." Li Zhao put the phone in his jacket pocket: "I have prepared a lot of late-night snacks at home. You can go back after you have eaten your late-night snacks."
"No, no, no." Zhang Xiaoyuan and Dake shook their heads in unison, with a little... rejection about staying at Yan Ting's house for dinner.
It's not that they have a problem with Zhaozhao's friends, but they are really uncomfortable staying in that house. The indescribable feeling of depression seemed to divide them and the owner into two worlds, making them feel timid unconsciously.
"Zhao." Zhang Xiaoyuan hesitated for a moment, but then asked, "Are you used to living at a friend's house? If you are not used to it, come to my house for a few days."
"Brother Xiaoyuan, you have asked this question several times." Li Zhao said happily: "I live very comfortably in the family home, the bed is very soft, the food is delicious, and even the uncle, the housekeeper, takes special care of me."
"It's good to get used to it. It's good to get used to it." Zhang Xiaoyuan thought, the uncomfortable feeling in his heart was probably caused by his being too poor.
"Brother Xiaoyuan, when I went back last night, the house was brightly lit, and Tingting was waiting for me to come home." Li Zhao smiled until his eyes became crescent moons: "I have lived for 20 years, and this is the first time someone is so serious. wait for me to go back..."
Zhang Xiaoyuan's lips moved, but he didn't know what to say.
Yes, for a child who was abused by his adoptive parents after birth, only to know that he was not his biological child after the age of ten, and was sent to a welfare home to be raised, even someone waiting for him to go home is a luxury.
The car drove into the gate of the villa, and Li Zhao warmly invited the two of them into the house again: "Are you really going to leave without eating? The family chef is very good at cooking."
The two shook their heads again.
"Okay then." Li Zhao shook his head regretfully, "Then we'll see you later in the year."
"Mr. Li." The housekeeper heard the sound of the car and knew that Li Zhao had returned. He walked over to Li Zhao and took out two red envelopes: "Thank you for taking care of Mr. Li, and I wish you a prosperous New Year. This is our husband's heart."
Zhang Xiaoyuan and Dake shook their heads, how could they be so embarrassed to accept this red envelope.
"It's just for auspiciousness, and I don't have much money." The housekeeper smiled and persuaded them, and they quickly accepted the red envelope.
After leaving Yan Ting's house, Zhang Xiaoyuan and Dake reacted in a daze, why did they accept the red envelope
This is not scientific, are they so shameless and greedy for money
Why did others just say a few words, and they have the cheek to accept the red envelope
"You're back?" Yan Ting sat on the sofa with the tablet in front of him. When Li Zhao came in, he turned off the tablet.
"Are you watching the live broadcast of Green Pepper's video?" Li Zhao put on his slippers and hurried to Yan Ting's side: "Did you watch my performance?"
Li Zhao was so close, Yan Ting could even feel the heat on his body.
"just looking around."
"How did I behave?" Li Zhao sat down: "Isn't he particularly handsome and calm?"
"Well..." Yan Ting was silent.
"Isn't it bad?" The smile on Li Zhao's face began to collapse.
"Very good." Yan Ting couldn't see Li Zhao's frustration, got up and walked to the dining table to sit down: "Take off your coat and eat here."
"Tingting, I didn't expect you to learn to be funny." Li Zhao took off his coat, walked to the dining table, and dragged his chair closer to Yan Ting: "Actually, when I came on stage, I was quite nervous, thinking that there might be Many fans are watching, and they mustered up their courage. If I lose the chain, those little girls who follow me will lose face."
"Also, I got the autograph of the Swordsman." Li Zhao said, "When I was a child, I especially wished that I could fly over the eaves like the Swordsman, but I was relatively young in the courtyard, and most of the time I could only play the role of a god. Swordsman's friend or villain."
Listening to Li Zhao's talk, Yan Ting ate a small bowl of wontons. Before going to bed at night, his mind was full of Li Zhao's chatter.
In the middle of the night, Yan Ting woke up again.
His mother stood by the bed, looking at him sadly. Suddenly, she turned around and walked out the door. There were women's crying and the man's impatient scolding from the corridor.
Yan Ting walked out.
He saw the man in the suit lying in a pool of blood, twitching all over.
Bang!
Looking back, he saw the woman in red lying on the cold floor, and she jumped down from the top of the stairs.
A man with convulsions, a woman in a red dress whose limbs were twisted.
The cold wind came in through the gap in the window, bringing a chill.
Suddenly, a warm hand rested on the back of his hand.
"Tingting, what are you doing standing here barefoot?"
"Why don't you turn on the lights?"
The dark room turned into light in an instant.
"Put your coat on now."
There was a thick coat on him.
He looked back and saw bright, concerned eyes.
The author has something to say: Zhao Baobao held Ting Baobao's hand and said solemnly: Children can't run around, there will be bad people to take you away.
