It is already September, and Nancheng has entered the rainy season. When they returned to Nancheng, it was an autumn rain.
This autumn rain is not very big. The drizzle has been falling for a day and a night, and the weather has cooled down. Bai Qingquan went to see Shen Jintai first.
The movie "Spring Night Like Rain" has been delayed for a long time. I missed Cannes at the beginning. Everyone thought that the movie would be released in the summer. As a result, the summer has passed, and the movie has not been officially announced, and then it was very sudden. way, shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival competition.
Tomorrow morning, Shen Jintai and the crew of "Spring Night and Rain" will go to Venice. As the boss of Sunshine Media, Yan Qiuchi will go with them.
"Have you seen the finished film?" Bai Qingquan asked Shen Jintai.
Shen Jintai nodded: "I just watched it a few days ago."
"How?" he asked.
Shen Jintai said: "I like it myself, but I don't know what the audience will think."
"If you like it, the quality is definitely not bad."
"The duration is two and a half hours, and the pace is relatively slow." Shen Jintai said.
It's a real piece of art. The film is so long, and when it is officially released, the film schedule may be affected, and the box office is not optimistic.
Seven points of awards are based on quality, and a few points are based on luck. This is something that can be met but not obtained. People from Shen Jintai Studio are actually more worried about the box office.
For male actors, the box office is more important than the awards, because winning the awards is the icing on the cake, and it doesn't hurt if you don't get them, but the box office is different. If you get good grades, someone will praise them. is great.
Everyone hopes that this movie will have a box office score of over 100 million.
"Is the Ming Palace going to hold a grand opening ceremony in the future?" Shen Jintai asked.
Bai Qingquan nodded.
"I've already recorded the VCR for you, and Si Qi seems to have recorded it too."
Zheng Siqi is currently filming a new movie in Thailand.
Seeing that he was about to go to Venice, Shen Jintai was under a bit of pressure, but Bai Qingquan's pressure was actually no less than his.
The official trailer of "Ming Palace Night Talk" has been released on the Internet, and the response has been extremely enthusiastic. Many people think that this drama will be the second "East Palace Comes". Relying on the reputation and popularity of Dong Palace, "Ming Palace Night Talk" "Whether it is on TV or on the webcast platform, it has sold sky-high prices, and investment promotion is even more popular. If this much-anticipated drama is not as good as expected, he may be ridiculed very much.
The biggest possibility is that he will be drawn to compare with Shen Jintai. Although he is the male protagonist of "Here Comes from the East Palace", his eyes are all on Shen Jintai. Now he is truly a man alone.
After coming out of Shen Jintai and returning to the hotel, Xiaofeng brought the Hanfu tailored for him.
This Hanfu is more exquisite than he expected. The material is also the softer material he wants. The pattern on top is more expensive. Xiaofeng said that it was hand-embroidered by the old master.
After Xiaofeng went out, Bai Qingquan took a shower, first wearing nothing inside, wearing the red robe and trying it on, then putting on his underwear and trying again.
Each has its own good, wear nothing inside, bare robes, bare feet, shoulders should not be exposed, romantic and enchanting, if the boots are all lined and the buttons are fully buttoned, it will become noble and abstinent.
Bai Qingquan thought about it, and decided to wear them all.
Such complicated clothes, Shi Lei unbuttoned one button at a time, and peeled off layer by layer, also felt very interesting.
After making up his mind, he called Shi Lei.
Shi Lei didn't know that he had returned to Nancheng. What he told him was that he was still filming in the crew today.
So when he received his call, Shi Lei asked, "Aren't we filming at this point? Still resting?"
"Rest, what are you doing now?"
"Still in the store, ready to get off work in half an hour."
Bai Qingquan said "um", chatted with him a few more times, and hung up.
After hanging up, he immediately put the Han clothing into his bag, carried it out, and went straight to Shi Lei's store.
It was still raining outside, and the sky was a little darker than before. The head office of Livable Decoration is right in the center of the new district, opposite to the shopping plaza. On the big screen of the plaza, the trailer of "Ming Palace Night Talk" is scrolling. This was not put by the TV station or the producer, but an advertisement bought by Moonlight Powder for Bai Qingquan.
This drama can be seen to the naked eye, and the moonlight powder is very bloody.
It was raining and it was almost time for get off work, so there were no more customers in the Yiju Decoration Store. Xiaofang and a few colleagues were sitting in the lobby on the first floor drinking coffee. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, they saw the advertisement on the opposite square. , Bai Qingquan's unparalleled face, matched with Zhou Jin's elegant dress, is really amazing.
In my impression, this is the first time for Bai Qingquan to wear red. I always thought that the bright and flamboyant and beautiful man like Shen Jintai was suitable for wearing red, but I didn't expect that Bai Qingquan, who was dressed in fairy spirit, would look so good in red, which made his complexion whiter and his eyes and nose more delicate.
"Do you believe what Sister Wang said?" One of the girls said, "She said that Bai Qingquan has a difficult relationship with our boss."
"Bai Qingquan is our boss's idol... Although I really don't understand how a straight man like the boss can chase stars."
"It's still a bit related. The two of them are fellow villagers. They came from the same place, and they may have known each other before. Otherwise, how could the boss go to decorate his house in person. But Sister Wang's meaning seems to be that our boss and Bai Qingquan are in love. ? This is a bit of a joke."
Xiaofang had suspected it at first, but later she also thought it was ridiculous. It wasn't that their boss was not good enough, but they were in love with a big star like Bai Qingquan
TV shows don't dare to do that.
A colleague next to her suddenly straightened up and looked at the door. Xiaofang followed her gaze and saw a young man wearing a mask pushing the door in.
She was the receptionist at the front desk. Seeing this, she immediately got up and returned to the front desk. She smiled and bowed and said, "Welcome to Livable Decoration."
The young man asked with a smile, "I'm here to find your store manager Shi, is he there?"
"Yes, you are..."
The young man took off his mask and looked at her with a smile.
Xiaofang was stunned, and when she came back to her senses, her face flushed immediately: "Our store manager is in his office!"
Bai Qingquan nodded at her with a smile, and Xiaofang felt that she was about to faint.
My God, the big star Bai Qingquan, it was the first time in her life to see a star so closely, it was too good-looking!
Really shockingly beautiful.
Bai Qingquan had just entered, and all the colleagues next to him immediately surrounded him: "Is it Bai Qingquan, is it him, is it him!"
"It's him," Xiaofang said dully, "it's Bai Qingquan!"
Everyone was so excited that they didn't know what to do.
Bai Qingquan knocked on the door of the office and heard Shi Lei's voice from inside: "Come in."
He smiled and pushed the door in: "Deng deng deng, surprise!"
He was dumbfounded when he opened the door.
Because there is another man in the office.
The man was sitting opposite Shi Lei, and when he saw him, the teacup in his hand almost spilled water.
Shi Lei stood up immediately: "Why are you here!"
Bai Qingquan was a little embarrassed and smiled: "There are guests..."
"My friend, Liu Chuan."
Liu Chuan also stood up: "Bai Qingquan, you are Bai Qingquan!"
Bai Qingquan came back to his senses, immediately reached out his hand, walked over, and shook hands with Liu Chuan.
A few employees sneaked up to the door to take a peek. Shi Lei went over and said, "What to watch, just leave work early if you have nothing to do."
After saying that, he closed the door with a smile.
Everyone looked at each other, and after returning to the hall, who could sit still.
"His house wasn't renovated long ago, why is he here again?"
"It seems that he is really familiar with President Shi."
"What Sister Wang said isn't true, is it?"
You look at me, I look at you, but I still feel unbelievable.
Said to be friends, there is still a little possibility that Bai Qingquan is in love with their boss? It feels so unreal.
Everyone was gossiping, when they saw Shi Lei and the others coming out. Bai Qingquan had put on his mask again, and while whispering to Liu Chuan, he waved to Xiaofang and the others.
Liu Chuan stopped when he reached the door, watching Shi Lei and Bai Qingquan get into the car.
On the big screen outside, the trailer for "Ming Palace Night Talk" appeared again. This time, it was accompanied by a mix of Bai Qingquan's past screen roles. Liu Chuanchao watched it on the big screen, because he had just seen Bai Qingquan himself. Looking at him on the big screen again, it felt like a dream.
Bai Qingquan was in Shi Lei's car. As soon as he got in the car, Shi Lei asked, "Why did you come back suddenly."
Bai Qingquan asked with a smile, "Are you surprised?"
"Surprise." Shi Lei said and glanced outside. It was still raining lightly outside, and there was no one there, so he stretched out his arms, and Bai Qingquan rushed into his arms and said, "I miss you, I'll come and see you."
There was also a hint of coquettishness in his tone. Hearing Shi Lei's ears, his heart trembled.
He touched Bai Qingquan's earlobe and said, "How many days can you stay at home?"
"The Night Talk in the Ming Palace is about to start broadcasting. I'm here to participate in the broadcast ceremony of the TV station. By the way, I have two days off. I can stay in Nancheng for three and a half days in total!"
"I didn't sleep well yesterday, thinking about you." Shi Lei said.
This is the truth. He dreamed of Bai Qingquan last night. He was half awake from the dream. He couldn't think of it. He sent a message to Bai Qingquan early in the morning, but Bai Qingquan lied to him that he was still on the set.
Xiaofang and the others secretly looked at Shi Lei's Audi through the glass, but the car never moved.
Damn, what are you two doing in the car, chatting
It feels... so ambiguous.
It was almost dinner time, Shi Lei started the car and said, "Let's eat first."
He was going to take Bai Qingquan to the restaurant for dinner, Bai Qingquan said, "Let's order takeout today, instead of eating out, go to your house, I haven't been to your house yet."
Shi Lei knew that Bai Qingquan wanted to spend more time alone.
He is also happy.
So he drove Bai Qingquan home.
It was still raining lightly outside, and it was raining heavily. Bai Qingquan was a little nervous, so he turned on the music and played a song.
The normalized "The Beauty of the World is Interlocked with You".
"At this time, the grass has grown
The one I love is on the way, I
Know that he has gone through trials and hardships
The way is not rewarding in the evening,
Cross the sea of people, just to hug you. "
A very rhythmic song, Bai Qingquan shook his head gently with the music, one hand was attached to the cold car window, and his white fingers stretched slightly.
The car entered the community and stopped in front of a white villa. Bai Qingquan got out of the car, looked inside the community, and said, "You can buy such a good house at such a young age."
Shi Lei was a little nervous.
He didn't expect that Bai Qingquan would suddenly come to him, and he was not prepared at all. As soon as he entered the door, he immediately bent down and started to clean up. Bai Qingquan stood at the door, staring at the messy living room.
There were several cans of beer on the table and half a barrel of instant noodles left over from eating. Pants, jackets, and even a pair of black underwear were scattered on the sofa. The shoe rack at the entrance was also a little messy.
Shi Lei hurriedly packed up. He quickly piled all the clothes together, and then packed up all the bottles and jars on the table. He said a little embarrassedly, "It's a little messy."
It's messy, but there is a breath of life, what a standard bachelor like Shi Lei would look like.
Bai Qingquan put down his bag and helped him pack up. Shi Lei hurriedly said, "Sit down, I'll come."
Bai Qingquan didn't listen, and smiled and helped him clean up: "You just live such a life."
"One person, I've gotten used to it over the years."
Fortunately, the floor is still clean, Shi Lei said: "I'm not very good at cleaning, and I will ask the cleaner to do a big cleaning every week."
Bai Qingquan put his hands behind his back and asked with a smile, "Can I visit casually? Do I need to give you some time to hide the things that should be hidden first, and the people who should hide should also hide."
Shi Lei said: "The bedroom may also be messy."
When Bai Qingquan heard the words, he went straight to the bedroom first. The door of the bedroom was not closed. When he entered, the quilt on the bed was a little messy, and there were a few clothes on the chair. It was a little messy, but it was okay, similar to the living room. But he didn't pay attention to these, because his attention was directly attracted by a few posters posted in the bedroom.
One is a poster he took during the "pickme" audition. He was wearing a uniform, and it was a little green. At that time, the clothing couldn't keep up. Looking at it now, it's actually a bit dirty, and he hasn't seen it for a long time.
The other one is nearly two years old, probably after he took pictures of the East Palace.
He glanced back, and saw Shi Lei standing behind him, smiling slightly, a little shy, and said, "It's all posted before."
Bai Qingquan looked at them one by one, and finally saw a photo frame by the bedside. The photos in it seemed to be Shi Lei's class photos when he was in school.
He immediately picked it up curiously, looked at it with a smile, and wanted to find Shi Lei inside, but after looking at it for a while, he found that there were a lot of familiar faces to him, and he also saw their head teacher.
He was stunned for a moment, his smile gradually solidified, and then he saw himself in a school uniform among the young and tender junior high school students.
Standing on the right in the penultimate row, looking at the camera quietly.
He only felt that his heart was slightly warm, but his nose was inexplicably sour, and he looked back at Shi Lei.
This situation is really very emotional.
Even Shi Lei felt a little damp in his heart. Thinking about that year, he dropped out of school and embarked on a journey of part-time work with this photo in his hand. With a rough and angular personality, he was a newcomer to society, and he was hard, tired and hopeless. , supporting him along the way, and some of them are some fantasies about Bai Qingquan.
At that time, the fantasy was more like drawing cakes to satisfy one's hunger. In fact, I didn't expect this moment to come. God treats him very well.
