Chapter 22: The Triumph

Aunt Fang hasn't come home from vacation yet, and the three of them are not good at cooking, and they are embarrassed to always ask Qiao's mother to bring them over, so they have to go out to buy or order takeout.

When they got up in the morning, they went to the market to buy a big bag of fruit, Jolene called and said that she wanted to come over for dinner, and Lulu smiled and said, "Sister Qiao will definitely bring food, I'll wash the fruit, and then cut a fruit bowl and wait for her to deliver the food!"

She watched helplessly as she happily washed the fruit, and rolled up her sleeves and followed.

When Jolene came, she brought a lot of food, including the dishes that Joe's mother had prepared early in the morning that was enough for them to eat for two days. Lulu leaned against the kitchen door with two navel oranges, "I know you're the best, Sister Joe! And Mama Joe! We also bought salad and yogurt, and I'll make fruit salad and platters later." ”

Jolene poured water to herself, smiling and shrugging, "I have to take some time to thank some of Joe's mothers, it's always troublesome for her." ”

"She likes to be eaten by her, but she's very happy if you go over and talk to her. ”

It's still early, Lulu and Juanxin are in the kitchen making fruit bowls and salads, and Jolene is starting to pack up the things she brought, and the three of them are chatting and doing their work.

"Sister Qiao, didn't you say that you were going home for the New Year this year, why did Qiao's father and Qiao's mother come to T City?" Lulu was almost washing grapes one by one.

"The work of the previous year was not finished, and I was ready to seize the time to continue to contact, so I asked them to come over, and the two of them were also bored at home, so they were coming to T City to play, and this is not today and the two of me went out shopping, anyway, as long as the family is together, it is the same wherever the New Year is spent. ”

Lulu and Jolene both kept their heads down and went about their own thing, not noticing the loss of the scarlet.

"It's a blessing that the old man can be like this, Sister Qiao, you can be content! What do you say you haven't finished talking about? Is it a new play? If you want to talk about it for so long, it seems to be a pretty good book, is it Xinyuan?"

"In the cooperation between China and South Korea, our company and Xinghui are involved, but the share is not large, it was originally Han Yu's role, but she has already confirmed that she can't come back after the postponement of filming abroad, so there is a change, let's talk about it when it's negotiated, it's indeed a good opportunity. ”

Lulu's eyes lit up when she heard Han Yu's words, but Qiao Lin didn't say much about work, so she didn't ask again.

When a friend gave Jolene the news a few years ago, she really didn't expect that an international star like Han Yu would have more than just an artist. Just like she didn't renew her contract with Chenhui Media after it expired and didn't sign any brokerage company, it's just the word Han Yu, and even some small and medium-sized companies can't resist her appeal with all their might, if she comes back, she really doesn't know what chance she can have.

Speaking of these well-known media brokerage companies in the industry, Xinyuan Media, where Xinyuan Media is located, is not the largest and most resourceful, but it is undoubtedly the best reputation and the most appealing, and its many popular Xiaosheng and Hua Dan, although there are few top first-line celebrities, but it is enough, the most important thing is that the relationship between Xinyuan and its artists is very good, there is almost no negative news, plus the several directors and screenwriters who signed are the guarantee of the box office and ratings, and were once evaluated by the audience as the most trustworthy production place of works.

Starlight International, which is almost the same as the strength of Xinyuan Media, was established far earlier than Xinyuan, but Gao Hongfei, the chairman of the board, is a very skillful and scheming person, and it is almost a miracle that he can make Starlight International a position that cannot be underestimated today when he is behind in the case of a backward start. But the fly in the ointment is that most of the popular artists under its umbrella are young artists who have become popular overnight, their foundation in the circle is still unstable, those who like them are crazy and impulsive, and those who don't like them are contemptuous and complaining, and the polarization is serious, but this does not hinder the overall development of Starlight International.

In recent years, Chenhui Media Media, the oldest and largest veteran media agency in the industry, has shifted its focus to production and film and television distribution, and has rarely signed new artists. The same is true in China, not to mention far away, Teacher Jiang Li, who cooperated with Zhu Zhuan Xin in "Guardian", is an artist under Xinghui, and Lin Su, who cooperated in "Three World Fireworks", is already a popular star in the industry, but Xinghui is also a small-character artist.

There have been a lot of changes in the circle in recent years, and the cooperation like the one in "Bihu Yuan" is almost out of print now. The Bi series is the representative work of Yuantang Media, and the overall strength of Yuantang in the first part cannot be compared with the other three major media companies, but Tang Shu and Wenxi are very popular in the circle, plus the first "Bishuitan" became an instant hit, and in the second "Bihu Yuan", in addition to the three artists of Yuantang himself, Chenhui, Xinyuan and Starlight International each have an artist to join, and now that the industry is turbulent, it is almost impossible to have such a cooperation opportunity.

Lulu put the washed grapes on the plate and asked, "Sister Qiao, I heard that Sun Kai is going to set up his own studio, is it true?"

Jolene smiled and said, "With his ambition, this is something to be done sooner or later, what's so unusual." ”

This is also true, although his plays are controversial, but it is undeniable that the ratings are high, and he loves to use newcomers, those who have just graduated and have not been famous or even filmed, but they like this profession and do everything they can to enter this circle, it is a good choice to cooperate with him, but whether it can be recognized by the public is another matter, maybe a work can become famous overnight, but maybe a work is not good, it will be scolded for being incomplete. ”

I don't know much about Sun Kai, and when I listen to Lulu's analysis, I have to admire that she really worked hard to study.

"It's also filming his scenes, Luo Jia is highly praised, but Zhong Jiaxi is a mess, in addition to his appearance and acting skills, the script is also very important!"

I don't know what scenes of Sun Kai were filmed by Luo Jia and Zhong Jiaxi, but she still agrees with the script as far as the script is concerned, a good script and a good role are very important. Compared with other actors who pick the scene, pick the director, pick the partner, pick the production lineup, etc., the only thing she picks is the role, what she likes, no matter what kind of production team will take it, what she doesn't like, no matter how luxurious the lineup is, she won't take a look. It's not that the other items aren't important, it's just that she is always willful in picking roles, and there must be something to attract her.

The popular Bi series is not only Yuan Tang's masterpiece, but also the representative work of its gold medal screenwriter Qi Shuang, in fact, she has a lot of popular works before the Bi series, but the Bi series is a work that really makes her familiar and recognized by people in the non-screenwriting industry.

Qi Shuang and Sun Kai are still half of the same class, but Qi Shuang has been engaged in this industry since he was born in a professional class, and Sun Kai is a monk halfway. At the beginning, the two were quite happy because of their cooperation at work, and they also had some intersections in private, but later Sun Kai was ambitious, and he wanted to pull Qishuang to do it alone but was refused, as for the later things, outsiders don't know.

In this line of work, the most well-known way is nothing more than a professional background, and then some people start to slowly boil up from playing small supporting roles, while some people are lucky enough to come out in one or two dramas and then have a smooth star journey. Some people are full of enthusiasm, no matter how hard and difficult it is, they always insist, they really love performance, most of them go to performing artists, of course, there are also people who change their careers early and stay away from this circle. There is also hearsay that if you have money, power and connections, you can get the protagonist all at once, and then even if you enter the industry and become famous, it is undeniable that there is, but the conditions are so favorable at the right time, place and people, not everyone has this ability, even if there is, some people just can't be popular no matter how they praise it, what a good role to take, and they work hard and seriously to do it, but the audience just doesn't buy it, in the words of an old-timer, this is fate.

Qiao Lin glanced at her seemingly casually, "Many artists say how accidental their success is, and it's good to coax fans, but everyone in the circle understands that it is really like Zhuan Lian, and the few are almost negligible, so even if it is true, few people are willing to believe it." ”

Lulu suddenly said indignantly: "That's why they are envious, jealous and hateful, and they are spreading rumors behind their backs, which is really hateful!"

How could you not understand, when I was in school in the past, Qu Fei said: "You have few professionals and so many performances, everyone recognizes your professional level, if you change our popular major, everyone is very sensitive, the teacher is kind to whom, who to give more opportunities, and I can't tell you what to say behind your back." ”

Although it is not an environment, she can understand and understand very well, and some facts are not believed, which is one of the reasons why she can deal with those unreasonable accusations and criticisms so indifferently after entering the industry.

In fact, in addition to feelings, whether it is her studies or career over the years, her luck has been quite good, but she is not a strong woman, what she wants has always been very simple, but she can't get it.

When she first signed the company, Xiao Xia was highly praised, and the media also held her high, but she didn't have any understanding of this completely unfamiliar circle, and the world she lived in before was completely different from it, but since she had decided to take this path, she had to do her best to understand and adapt to it in the fastest time.

The company has newcomer training, and she has a high starting point because of Xiaoxia, but after all, she is not from a professional class, and she knows very little about the art of acting. When she was on the set of "Trajectory", she didn't even know how to move at first, and some people in the group were not surprised why Zhao Jin thought she was Xiao Xia, and gossip was naturally indispensable behind her back, but Zhao Jin's temper was well-known in the circle, and no one dared to ask, so she could only work overtime to teach her some basic common sense of filming, fortunately, although she didn't like to talk and didn't care much about people in private, she had a high comprehension, learned things very quickly, and humbly asked for advice, so from the very beginning, she had to work overtime to teach her because of the director. It's not bad to have a student like that.'"

After signing with Xinyuan, Jolene first invited a senior acting teacher to teach her, and some of the survival rules and coping methods in the rookie training were selected by Jolene to teach her some of the content she might use. At that time, she went to the company on time every day, and Jolene and Lulu accompanied her almost every inseparable, which was a process of getting acquainted with each other.

He is no longer considered to be the golden age to enter the industry, but after coming into contact with this unfamiliar field, he is unusually serious and hardworking, and his understanding is high, and the teacher also likes this student very much. At the same time, the company also had several newly signed artists, they were collectively trained on the first floor, and she was taking classes alone, she didn't know that they were talking about herself behind their backs.

Later, when Lulu was gossiping with Jolene, she also asked about some companies that specialize in cultivating artists, especially for the cultivation of idol stars, and their newcomer training courses not only include courses on how to deal with the media and how to dress up, but also how to interact with fans and create effects on the show to increase popularity. Lulu wondered if this was really the case, Jolene didn't answer directly, but joked and coaxed her to do something else, in Jolene's eyes, she was actually just a big child who had not been completely contaminated by the world, and there was really no need to know something that was useless to her.

For an outsider who was originally not involved in the actor industry, the opportunity she got was indeed eye-catching, and Lulu was a quick temper, every time something happened, she was more anxious and angry than Zhuan Xin.

But as the saying goes, people in the rivers and lakes can't help themselves, and many things are beyond the control of individuals.

If Aunt Fang hadn't gone through the cupboard to find the dishes herself, neither she nor Lulu would have known that Aunt Fang had even put a lot of effort into selecting the dishes.

The doorbell rang, and Lulu turned around and said, "Hey, could it be that Aunt Fang came back early?"

Qiao Lin was closest to the door, walked over to open the door, and was greeted by Zhang Liyou's assistant Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao carried a big bag, "I'll send my favorite taro crisp!"

Jolene let her in, and put the freshly laid fruit plate on the coffee table in the living room, and Lulu came out with her hands wet, "Just yourself?"

Xiaoxiao put down the bag and said: "Youyou is filming, I took two days off for the New Year and went around the neighborhood with my friends in the group, taro crisp can't be bought elsewhere, she said that she likes to eat, so she bought a lot, and originally said that when the logistics company went to work, the express came back, and the company asked me to come back to get something, so I brought it back." ”

He laughed and said, "Thank you for me." ”

Lulu shouted on the side, "Youyou is too caring, it's rare for Lian Lian to have something she likes to eat, she still remembers it, she should give her a best girlfriend award!"

Xiaoxiao stayed for a while, because he was in a hurry, so he left.

Lulu opened the package and handed it to Wei Zhuanxin, this was still when filming "Three Worlds Fireworks", Zhang Liyou and Chen Xi always liked to go around looking for things to eat, and Lu Zhuan Xin said lightly every time that it was okay, but she ate a lot of this taro crisp, but she didn't expect her to remember it.

I tasted a piece, as always.

Listening to this name, it will always make people think that it is just a shortbread made of taro, what is special, but there is no other place, but I just can't find that taste.

When she ate it for the first time, she inexplicably thought of the crystal cheese made by Grandma Cheng in the small town, whether it was the appearance or the taste, the two snacks had no similarities, but she just thought of them together.

I haven't seen Zhang Liyou for a while, I don't know what kind of scene she is filming, and it is the Spring Festival spent in the crew. She went to call Zhang Liyou but no one answered, thinking that she had already started filming and was filming, so she sent her a text message.

There will always be some friends in life, you may not meet often or even contact each other, but there will always be a place in your heart for each other, whenever you think of it, your chest will be warm, and that's enough.

Such a non-grudging but always present feeling makes the person adapt and moved.

Lulu and Jolene were already preparing for dinner, the TV was playing music, and at the end of each year, there would be various types of programs on the TV to review the year's works, whether it was music or theater.

She heard a familiar voice with her back to the TV, even if it was a completely different song, even if it was a completely different style, she could still tell at once that it was him.

The TV show is introducing Cheng Shuo's return album "Dawn".

As the host said, Cheng Shuo, who came back after baptism and professional training, changed not only his external image, but also changes in his personal style and style.

His "Origin" is being broadcast on TV: after going around in a circle, or returning to the original place, it doesn't matter, just start over.

Looking at the past, she has always liked him to sing slow songs, and his feelings are delicately interpreted in place, even if it is a cover, he has his own taste.

In the past, when he knew that he was not sleeping well, he smiled and said that he would sing a lullaby to hypnotize her, which was funny, and the days with him were the only time in her life when she could sleep peacefully, so the lullaby he said was not used once.

Fate played tricks, she had heard him sing so many other people's love songs, heard him sing love songs to everyone in many scenes, and heard him sing love songs to himself, but she never heard him stand on the stage, so she concentrated on singing slow love songs that belonged to his style for only one person.

"I went around in a circle or returned to the original place, time changes, the years go by, are you all okay, I have gone through detours and crossed the mountains and rivers and finally come back, it doesn't matter, just start over. ”

She looked at the face in the picture, the origin, and started over?

But even if you go back to square one, the scenery around you will change.

Who can predict whether it will be a moment or a lifetime that will be missed.
