4. Chapter IV
Half a month later. Zhixi went to the United States to recuperate with the help of Yin Zhenghe, and asked an excellent psychiatrist to accompany him. Yin Zhenghe returned to China, Zhixi stayed in the United States to slowly put his life on the right track, and published a book in the United States under the English name May, and four months later quickly entered the top ten of the New York Times bestseller list with the book "The Sound of the Heartbeat".
A year later, the book was made into a movie by a well-known director, and it went straight to the top five of the annual champion of the North American box office list that year. After that, May did not rush to publish a second novel, but published various novels in large and small magazines, thoroughly gaining a firm foothold in the circle. The following year, she borrowed the model of the Count of Monte Cristo to write an American drama, which won an Emmy Award for Best Screenplay while achieving good ratings.
The jaws of the crowd were shocked by the sudden speed of the attack.
If it weren't for Yin Zhenghe, he used his former connections to make "The Voice of the Heartbeat" published and vigorously promoted. I'm afraid it will take a few years for May's upward trajectory. And Zhixi is no longer as stubborn as before that he must use his strength to conquer readers, in fact, the strength is there, and those who should like it will still like it~
Especially since she has never appeared in public, even if she wins an award, she is collected by her agent, and there are countless speculations about her identity by the public. Some people say that she is too ugly to see people, and some people say that she is a beautiful girl raised in a deep boudoir and does not like the complicated world outside the text. These controversies have made her popularity rise again and again, and her novels have sold better.
At this time, a black and white profile photo called 'May' suddenly leaked out.
The person above lowered her head slightly, her long straight hair was braided into two braids and fell on her shoulders, she wore a garland on her head, and the small side face that was exposed glowed softly in the light, she sat barefoot on a wicker chair in a long skirt, quiet and soft, like an elf coming out of the forest. It's not clear how you can see the face, but it's unexpectedly impressive.
Everyone who sees this photo can't help but stop their eyes. The person who posted the photo claimed to be a waiter at a hotel and had accidentally taken the photo, claiming that there was no photoshop except for a black and white photo. After this point was recognized by many PS gods, it set off a big wave on the Internet in an instant.
Even newspapers such as The Washington Post and USA Today have reported on the photo, confirming that the person in the photo is the writer 'May', who has never appeared in public.
"Elf-like words, elf-like temperament", "Fresh and natural like oxygen in the forest", "The girl who lives in the words and the elves in her heart", "The young aura writer, you can hear the sound of the elves dancing between the words" and other praises have made May's fame rise to a new level, the novel is good-looking, the writing is beautiful, and even the people are good-looking. The number of admirers has skyrocketed, and it is comparable to the top stars for a while.
In South Korea, when some reporters announced that May was Korean, the name became even more pronounced, and was called an international discovery by the public, and affectionately called 'May' a 'word elf'. In some of the relevant disclosures, this elf was born at the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League university in the United States, and this excitement became even more enthusiastic, and the fans formed without any organization called themselves 'forest fans'.
Looking at the praise inside and out, Zhixi's heart is very peaceful, just like a windless wheat field in the afternoon, without a trace of wheat waves, every wheat stalk stands quietly, as if waiting for something.
"Miss Zhixi. There are also people on the Internet who offer a reward for your address and want to chase you. The nurse next to Zhixi smiled happily, her face flushing. This nurse is Zhixi's agent Song Xiujing, who specially recruited an international student from South Korea, named 'Kwon Eun Ha', and has been with her for almost five months.
Hearing her say this, Zhixi just smiled lightly and silently and didn't say much. Zhixi doesn't care much about the evaluation of the outside world, after experiencing the praise of the whole people and then the scolding of the whole people, how can she not know the people's temperament? What is that thing? Can I eat it? Especially the media's. They are the ones who like you, they are the ones who hold you, they hate you or them, and they are still the ones who step on you in the back.
In this world, if you live seriously, and others are too serious, you will be easily hurt~
"You're in a good mood today~" Zhixi said with a smile.
Kwon Eun Xia's eyes lit up immediately, "Hmm~ I listened to the concert of the Dragon Puppet Bar yesterday, and there are signed photos!! As she spoke, she hummed softly, "In the cold water, you are beautiful and free...... Wow!! It's the daughter of the mermaid sea!! ”
"That's good~ It's YG's one. Did they come to the United States for a concert? It's really rare this time, and I haven't released a new album for three years. That's what he asked, but how could Zhixi not know about their arrival. The boy group that played as the ace of YG Company back then has suffered many grievances and hardships along the way, and now it is finally standing at the highest point in Korea. The captain became a key executive in the company, and the other members also showed their skills in the fields they were familiar with. As long as an album is released, it will inevitably sweep all the charts. A.N.JELL is on fire now, but it doesn't seem to affect them at all.
And the man who came up step by step in his own group is really powerful, and in the whole of South Korea, there are almost no young people walking on the street who don't know him, even if they don't know, they must know. Na~ It seems that Park Sun-young also likes the object. Of course...... What's more, what about the girl in front of her~ Kwon Eun Ha...... Isn't it?
"Uh-huh. They are the best!! Seeing Zhixi, I also know that Quan Enxia is very proud, and besides, he is a writer that he has always admired, but he ...... Kwon Eun-mi glanced at Zhixi's legs vaguely, and a slight pity burned in her heart. Earlier, she learned something from Zhixi's agent Song Xiujing, such as the reason why this writer, who became famous in the United States, did not appear in public was partly because of the inconvenience of her legs and feet, which seemed to be the root of the illness she fell when she was a child. Another example is that she has been living abroad all the year round because of her health, and she has no friends. It may be that Zhixi does not have the arrogance she imagined at all, and her health is not good, so Quan Enxia still likes Zhixi very much.
Looking at Quan Enxia's very complacent expression when talking about Quan Zhilong's group, there was a sense of pride that my family had just grown up, and Zhixi smiled even more happily, she looked out the window leisurely, and her mood was as clear as the sky outside.
Korea. MCT's actors' practice room.
Park Sun-young, who has always been remembered by Zhixi, has already started to walk on the big screen by filming the movie "Father" at this time, and won the Blue Dragon Award for Best Newcomer. She looked at the newspaper that the assistant had brought over, and the side face on it made her feel inexplicably familiar.
"What's wrong??" Assistant Li Zhina asked in a whisper.
Park Sunyoung shook her head, "I just feel that this person is a little familiar." I think I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it. ”
Li Zhina smiled, "May is very popular now, you may have seen her photos in that magazine before." ”
Seeing him say this, Park Sun-young also put the newspaper aside.
"But I heard that May will return to China in the near future, and "The Sound of the Heartbeat" will also remake the Korean version, Brother Wan He said that if you can win the heroine, maybe you can catch up with May." Seeing Park Sunyoung's unconcerned look, Lee Ji Na carefully squatted down and said in a low voice, "It's better for you to keep your distance from A.N.JELL recently." I've already taken a photo of you eating together, saying that it's a family member, but it's not good if it's misunderstood. Sister Shanying, you are now on the rise of movies, and it is best not to break the scandal. ”
Park Sunyoung smiled and said clearly, patted the other party's shoulder, and got up and left in the other party's admiring little eyes. Hehe. How can this kind of fool understand, what is a mere Jiang Xinyu, what she wants is that man~Only that man is worthy of her~
She looked down at a photo on her phone. The above is a photo of Quan Zhilong standing on the stage, which makes her fascinated.
Only such a man is worthy of being her prey, isn't he~
And her fingers slid slightly, and the next one was a handsome-looking man with a slightly flowery smile. Everyone in the circle knows about him, everyone knows about him. Playboy Song Woo-bin.
Then. The phone number named 'Xinyu' lit up, and Park Sun-young immediately picked up the phone, her voice was gentle and soft, and it was very good.
