Chapter 740: Love Letter (1)
Weng Yao carried the kettle and watered the potted plants inside and outside the house one by one.
Watering is not just a matter of pouring water into it as soon as the time comes. It is necessary to water according to the type of plant, and then depending on the dryness and wetness of the soil. Dust has accumulated on the leaves, and you have to wipe it with a damp cloth.
It is delicate work.
The living creatures in the family are basically taken care of by Weng Yao.
In the past, she sometimes left a note to inform her cousin of how to take care of each pot of flowers, but her cousin turned a blind eye, causing her to often return home after a few days to find that the plants were almost dead and had to be remedied in a hurry. Last summer, after a quarrel with my cousin, I moved out of the house completely, and only hugged a pot of orchids. Expecting my cousin to take care of those flowers and plants is tantamount to watching them die. Every time he thought about it, Weng Yao felt sorry.
When I returned to my cousin's house after more than half a year, I found that not only had not all the plants in the house died, but there were more than before she left. It's inconceivable that this kind of thing happened to her cousin, who disliked plants and grabbed oxygen from her.
Weng Yao knew that something must have gone wrong. However, at that time, my cousin was caught in the whirlpool of public opinion, and the experience of true and false, and adulterated in truth was circulating everywhere, and groups attacked it on the Internet, and Weng Yao did not have the opportunity and mood to ask the reason why his cousin suddenly raised flowers. All she could do was to take care of the plants in the house and place them in the right place, so that the house would look vibrant and not make people fall into depression.
Her thoughtfulness didn't last long before she realized that her cousin was worthy of being a cousin. This kind of crisis, which is enough to cut off the acting career, was quickly shaken and exposed by my cousin, turning the danger into a safe one.
My cousin then began to be busy with the publicity and diffusion of [Me Too], receiving a lot of interviews, attending many events, seizing the opportunity, not only making herself from a second-tier actor to a world-famous public figure, but also pushing her career to the next few stages, and the scale and scope of the business have expanded several times. Once my cousin came back drunk, as before, Weng Yao hurriedly went to help, but my cousin was not drunk, and walked into the house steadily, with bright eyes and said that she would never have to get drunk again.
When she was busy, my cousin came home almost just to take a shower and change clothes, slept very little, and often had meetings on the phone or TV video late at night. The people who attended the meeting were all featured on news channels and on the news pages of newspapers. Many people found Weng Yao here, saying that they wanted to make a documentary for Weng Nanxi, wanted to publish a book for Weng Nanxi, wanted Weng Nanxi to be the producer of a certain movie, and wanted to ask Weng Nanxi to stand up for a public welfare activity...... Witnessing the people his cousin was in contact with and what he was doing, Weng Yao only felt that he was too small, where did he dare to use such a trivial thing as "why do you raise plants" to occupy his cousin's precious time in racing against time. Don't dare.
Just when Weng Yao thought that the question of raising flowers would exist in her heart for a long time, so long that she forgot the question or her cousin forgot the answer, one day, her cousin took the initiative to say one of the reasons for raising flowers.
In order to receive a letter.
The cousin instructed the assistant and the driver to place a pot of happiness trees outside the door of the house. He said that this kind of tree is very easy to keep, so that she will not miss the time to receive the letter again.
Weng Yao felt inexplicable, and didn't understand what was going on with receiving the letter and raising flowers. My cousin didn't care or explain, she just said that if you raise a happiness tree, you will be happy. This kind of coaxing children's rhetoric, Weng Yao didn't believe it even more. She had never heard of the Happiness Tree having this strange flower language and tree language similar to "eating the whole family bucket is a family" and "eating the wife cake I made, you are my wife".
Weng Yao didn't ask any more questions.
Since the cousin didn't want to say more, her curiosity ended there.
In the past, because of her excessive curiosity, she speculated about her cousin's life indiscriminately, and self-righteously believed in a lot of imaginary things, which brought trouble to many people. Now she has wandered the society, tasted the consequences of doing wrong things, seen the complexity of people's hearts, the repetition of public opinion, has matured much more, put away her restless curiosity and desire to perform, and will no longer easily express opinions on things she does not understand;
Last summer, those words he said to his cousin before moving away, Weng Yao felt ashamed just as he thought about it. She thought that her cousin's feelings for Han Jue were just pure use when she was in love, and she regretted not being able to see the other party after breaking up, so she arrogantly said a lot of hurtful remarks.
After she moved back home, the two sisters didn't talk about it. The two of them are like parents and children who have made an awkward noise, sitting down to eat and talk, which is equivalent to tacitly exposing the unhappiness and getting back together. But all the topics related to Han Jue, the two sides have always tacitly agreed not to mention them.
......
Weng Yao finished watering the potted plants in the living room and went into the study with the kettle. There was a pot of peace lilies on the desk, and the white flowers hung down and waited for water to shower.
After more than half a year, it is not just potted plants that have changed in this home.
After pouring water, Weng Yao glanced at the corner of the desk.
Between a pile of books and scripts, a picture frame stands.
In the frame is a photo of Han Jue holding his cousin's hand and teaching her to swim. Han Jue's face was nervous, and he observed his cousin's movements as seriously as if he were doing research. The cousin was laughing, as if laughing at Han Jue's nervousness and seriousness.
Weng Yao looked at the photo carefully.
It's not the first time she's seen this photo, during the days when her cousin went out to film, every time she came to water it, every time she saw the photo, she would quietly look at it for a long time.
Before she moved, this photo, along with other photos taken by Han Jue and her cousin on the beach in Qiong Province, was locked in a safe by her cousin, and she only occasionally took it out to look at it, and looked at it alone.
In fact, Weng Yao had secretly seen all the photos as early as the day Li Zebin came to the door, in a hurry, but he was impressed, so Weng Yao knew that this photo on the table was the only one in the stack of photos in which she looked at him.
Now this photo is generously placed on the desk, and it does not shy away from people. Is it nostalgia? Or is it some kind of vigilance? Weng Yao didn't know, but she only knew that in the six months since she left home, her cousin's life had indeed undergone some changes.
become more "weak" and more "willing to waste time"...... It's more humane.
It's like Zhang Yiman came to talk about things a few months ago. If in the past, it would have been polite for my cousin to appreciate Zhang Yiman's cup of tea, and she would never have been moved by Zhang Yiman's clumsy words, and she would not have said bluntly later when Han Jue fell into the [hacking incident], "This is someone who wants to stigmatize [me too]", and did not cut it.
Weng Yao is a little unfamiliar with such a cousin and needs time to get used to, but she is also happy to see this change happen. Although the reason for the change, it is not yet known.
"Ding-dong-"
The doorbell rang.
Weng Yao was like a thief who was awakened, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze from the photo, and the next second it would not be his cousin. So he held the kettle, walked to the entrance, and looked at who it was through the video phone.
It's her agent.
Weng Yao turned and opened the door.
"It's time to go. "The agent gets straight to the point.
"So early?" Weng Yao remembered that he had only finished lunch not long ago.
The agent explained: "It's better to arrive early, even if you sit there and play on your phone, than to be late." ”
"How can you still be in the mood to play with your mobile phone when you get there......" Weng Yao muttered, but he didn't resist leaving early.
The place where she is going to be there is the script reading of "Love Letter", where the members of the entire crew will meet for the first time, and she is a person with little seniority and a role that she has set to get, so it is necessary to arrive early and be humble.
"I'm going to change my clothes. After Weng Yao finished speaking, he let go of his body and asked the agent, "Do you want to come in and wait?"
The agent quickly shook his head and even took two steps back.
Like any employee in the company, the agent did not dare to step into the space belonging to Weng Nanxi when Weng Nanxi was not present. Not only because the other party is the majority shareholder of the company, but also because of a kind of personality awe.
Weng Yao knew that the company's employees were actually more afraid of their cousins than their bosses, so they were not reluctant.
After entering the house and changing his clothes and dressing up a little, Weng Yao went out and went downstairs and got into the nanny car, ready to go to [Tinder Film and Television].
On the way, the agent held the steering wheel and said to Weng Yao: "When we get over there, let's go say hello to Director Han first and thank you." ”
Weng Yao responded, "Okay." ”
Greeting the director is the right thing to do, not to mention that Han Jue has decided that she will play the second female lead, and if her career as an actor improves after that, this is a grace of support, and she will come to the door to pay New Year's greetings and gifts every spring. Weng Yao was looking forward to meeting Han Jue later, and felt extremely nervous.
This is inevitable, she hasn't seen Han Jue for a long time.
Now Han Jue is already a legend.
That is, the person is not in the rivers and lakes, but the rivers and lakes still circulate his legend.
More than two months ago, in the [Golden Melody Awards], Han Jue suppressed a number of nominees with his terrifying domination-level strength, and won a number of large and small awards, breaking the record for the number of awards won by a single person in a single session. What's even more powerful is that he also made his acceptance speech into a serialization like never before, thanking his relatives and friends in recent years, making the audience laugh and tear.
Later, there were records showing that Guan Yi's ratings on stage were higher than the moment when the lottery was announced, and this year's [Golden Melody Awards] was selected as the most memorable in the past two decades.
After the award ceremony, the online calls for Han Jue's comeback rose again and again. But Han Jue's team, represented by Guan Yi, stood up and made it clear that Han Jue would not have any plans to make a comeback in the past two years, as if it was not uncommon. It was a big disappointment for everyone.
sang "The Sea and the Sky" at the fans' college banquet, but it took advantage of this to spread. probably knows that if you want Han Jue to release a new song, you can only rely on these crooked ways. For a while, I don't know how many people participated in the topic, saying that they were about to take the university entrance examination/graduate school entrance examination/get married/fall in love, and wanted to bet with Han Jue.
Han Jue's speech at the college entrance banquet was also bought by an insurance company and made into an advertisement. The content is a large group of people running a marathon, you chase me, gritting your teeth, competing for position, everyone is sweating profusely and crying bitterly. With Han Jue's narration "Who said that life is a marathon?", everyone running on the track dispersed in a hurry, some jumped into the river to swim, some climbed the mountain to camp, some got married, and some fell into bed to sleep...... It shows the thousands of possibilities of life. As soon as the advertisement came out, it became popular on social platforms and became another classic case, making people in the advertising circle jealous and admiring Han Jue.
In the following July and August, the two variety shows in which Han Jue made cameo appearances also came out one after another under the watchful eye of the public.
In "Street Dance", the mysterious man reappeared in the rivers and lakes, wearing a cartoon tiger head hat, and played with a group of dancers provocatively, and at the moment of crisis, Tang Ye stood up. The clown of the past, now he has learned divine skills, facing the same opponent, Tang Ye washed away the past embarrassment with the results of hard practice, and provoked people inside and outside the screen, and sighed. This season's "Hip-hop" instantly set the tone - the biggest opponent is actually yourself. Hot-blooded, positive. Compared with the choking smell of gunpowder in the rap next door, there is too much love and peace here.
On the side of "I Love", this show is again and ...... With Han Jue and Zhang Yiman, he rebrushed his station's ratings record. is obviously a special session of [Sanqi Couple], but Zhang Zishang and Jiang Qi can only play the role of an introduction, what to look for Teacher Zhang, what to look for Teacher Han, to say it nicely, just coax them, after introducing Zhang Yiman and Han Jue, there is actually nothing to do with these two people in the back. The audience is not the slightest dissatisfied, after all, everyone is an adult, and adults can better understand the mood of adults who want to watch [Working Couple]. Even the fans of Zhang Zishang and Jiang Qi, after the initial anger, will only suddenly wonder "Hey, why is my brother/sister still there......?"
"My Love" has been broadcast for four consecutive episodes of [Working Couple], on the one hand, there is a suspicion of excessive consumption, on the other hand, it also confirms that Han Jue and Zhang Yiman participated in the filming content, the program effect is too good, the quality is too high, and one shooting is enough for a month. By analogy, "Mr. Zhang's B&B Cabin" only uses a quarter of the material. Netizens ran to Director Wang's Weite, pleading and threatening him to hand over the unaired clips of "B&B Cabin". It was also on the hot search for a while.
"My Love" and the influence of [Working Couple] are so great that there will be hot searches without buying them, and even Jalens can get a hot search.
On the show, Jalens told Zhang Zishang that Han Jue is a person who can't do without movies, and he will not completely withdraw from the circle, which made Han Jue's fans and fans feel a lot more relieved. Although it can be seen from the show that Jalens is a strange person and he can't believe what he says, Han Jue's spokesperson Guan Yi has not come out to refute the rumors, which shows that everyone really doesn't have to worry about Han Jue's complete retirement. Later, Han Jue invited Gu Fan to play the role of the new movie, which also confirmed this.
Everyone is curious about what kind of work Han Jue will come out of after quitting the music circle and concentrating on the film and television industry.
Weng Yao looked at the scenery that quickly passed by outside the car window, and squeezed the script in his hand.
The cover of this book wrote the script of "Love Letter", and she read it no less than ten times in more than two months.
Jupiter Girls is about to expire and the group is disbanding, and in the last month or two, each member of the group has also started their own itinerary and sought development. Weng Yao signed with her cousin's economic company, and the company's resources focused on film and television, so it was natural for her to transform into an actor.
Under the company's arrangement, she started taking acting classes a year in advance. In the first half of this year, he played a supporting role in a TV series, and the response was good. According to the original plan, in the second half of the year, she will play the role of the supporting actress of a larger production TV series, or the heroine of an online drama. Transform step by step.
But the script that Jiang Qi handed over for Han Jue directly disrupted the whole plan. Because what Han Jue handed over was not just a matter of script, it was related to the re-planning of Weng Yao's career plan.
idols have turned into actors, and there has been a path that countless predecessors have stepped on. The process is similar to that of a pass, musicals, dramas, TV series, and movies. The difficulty goes up in order. Every time you break through a level, you will be recognized by a part of the market. There are also those who go to the sky and act directly in movies, but the results are not very gratifying. After all, the acting skills have not arrived, and taking the liberty of participating in the movie is tantamount to self-inflicted humiliation, and it is easy to sit on the title of [vase], which is extremely risky. The more frustrated and courageous, the more courageous it is, it will not be appreciated, but it will be burdened with [box office poison], which will affect the hard work of the entire crew, and will be said to be "a work of circle money", "if there is him/she not watched", he was disliked both inside and outside the circle.
Director Han Jue's works have a 100% success rate so far, and none of them have missed. Some directors shoot works with a strong style, and the last hit is the director himself, and the works directed by Han Jue, whoever plays can become popular, and Gu Yu and Millie are popular alone, so Han Jue's project is particularly sought after by actors.
For actors, entering Han Jue's crew is equivalent to getting a notice of "this matter is stable". The value can rise, the popularity can rise, and there will be one more work with a [vine] score of more than 8 points in the representative work.
If Weng Yao can participate in Han Jue's new project, it is equivalent to having a masterpiece of movies with good results as a start, and it is a great thing to save several years of hard work in the middle. After reading the script, I was even more sure that Weng Yao had good luck. A role that is not very difficult, and at the same time can give the audience a good impression, it is too suitable for the fledgling Weng Yao.
The company immediately overturned the film and television plan for the second half of the year, and hurriedly called [Tinder], saying that Weng Yao was willing to play this role. Then let Weng Yao focus on "Love Letter" and invite the teacher of the acting class to prepare for the role in advance.
In fact, there is not much to prepare, the role she wants to play is a female high school student, and she can only analyze the character's personality and supplement the details. The specific acting method has to meet the director at the reading meeting to know how to act. The lines are only familiar, not memorized. Because reading the script is to let everyone discuss together, exchange ideas, find out some problems with the script, and then adjust. Some lines are likely to be changed, so there is no need to memorize them in advance.
The reason why I was able to turn the script more than ten times is because I like this story. In her early twenties, she was attracted by this kind of youthful past.
A team of three friends has entered society from college, and two of them are about to get married. But the marriage failed to work out in the end, and the fiancé met with an accident and died. Left behind a fiancée and a dead friend who was at a loss. The fiancée could not recover from the grief of her lover's death for a long time, and one day she was so longing for it that she wrote a letter to the old place where her lover once lived. I thought the letter was sinking into the sea, but unexpectedly there was a reply. The person who replied to her turned out to be a person with the same name and surname as her dead fiancé......
Suddenly it darkened outside the window, and it turned out to be the underground garage of [Tinder].
"It's here. The assistant stopped the car.
Weng Yao straightened his collar and hairstyle, and followed the agent to get out of the car.
From the moment he entered the elevator, Weng Yao began to look around curiously. It was her first time to visit the headquarters building of [Tinder], but through the last few issues of "I Love", she already seemed to have visited it and knew a lot of the layout and furnishings.
"Ding-" got out of the elevator, turned around, and Weng Yao prepared to face the nine-square grid painting facing the door.
Watching in front of the screen and watching it live is really different.
Today is not a day for tourists to visit, there is no group of people taking pictures in front of the painting, Weng Yao solemnly looked at the nine different colors of Zhang Yiman corresponding to the Jiugong grid, and only felt that each Zhang Yiman above was looking at her with a smile.
Mortals can only see that this painting embodies a certain artistic concept of Han Jue and a certain romance, while Weng Yao has half of his sister's true biography, and through the painting, he can see the more far-reaching true meaning behind it. understands that this behavior is similar to the marking of wild animals, but in fact, Zhang Yiman is warning all those who enter here not to be presumptuous.
In this year's list of the world's most glamorous actresses, Zhang Yiman and Weng Nanxi are one first and one second. And Han Jue, as a man who has been in love with these two men successively, was crowned with saving the galaxy in his last life. Men are envious, and women's eyes are hot. The people who wanted to dig the foot of the wall openly and secretly rushed to Han Jue one after another. After all, if you want to prove that you are more attractive than Zhang Yiman and Weng Nanxi, the most direct way is to snatch Han Jue from Zhang Yiman's hands. Even if Han Jue and Zhang Yiman get married, those people will not stop, and even find it more exciting and challenging.
For these women, Weng Yao just wants to praise them for their courage, but it's a pity that their efforts are in vain and a waste of time.
Dozens of episodes of "My Love" and a whole season of "B&B Cabin" and countless side programs have clearly told the world that the relationship between Han Jue and Zhang Yiman cannot be intervened by anyone.
[My cousin couldn't dig the foot of the wall, I don't believe anyone else can do it. 】
Weng Yao sighed so emotionally in his heart, so he followed his agent and walked to Han Jue's office.
Standing in front of the door, before he opened it, he heard a faint voice from inside:
"Eh~~ The two of us are traveling, why does Zhang Yiman want to come along? No, no!"
Weng Yao was shocked.
Could it be that there is someone else at the top of the list of the most glamorous actresses in the world?!
Who exactly?
I did what my cousin couldn't do!
