1. First encounter in the sky
In June, the weather in Beijing was hotter than usual, and even at the suburban capital airport, the air was uncomfortably irritating. The black Mercedes-Benz nanny car stopped in front of Terminal 3, Xia Wei put on his sunglasses, sighed quietly, and stepped out of the car with long legs.
In front of me is a huge poster of my endorsement mobile phone a while ago, the whole clear face is hanging on the giant screen, and the pure and ascetic apricot eyes are discharging at myself, which is a wonderful and embarrassing experience.
Zhu Qian, the agent and long-time friend, handed her the bag, and pulled a huge suitcase with her assistant, urging her not to be stunned and leave quickly.
"I'm a little sleepy."
"Sleep when you get on the plane." Zhu Qian looked at her big stride and coaxed with a smile.
Xia Wei created the impression of a goddess, beautiful, pure, and cold. So when one or two sentences like coquettish words pop up once in a while, it's unusually cute. However, this cuteness often lasts less than three seconds, and when you look at her again, there is no expression on her face, and the eyes behind the sunglasses must be cold, making you feel that the contrast of Fang Cai is just an illusion.
"There are no fans in the way this time." Xia Wei said faintly.
"You can't let them know everything about it." Zhu Qian quipped, "Do you still want to have it?" ”
Xia Wei pursed his lips.
This trip is to go to Zhejiang to participate in the filming of the MV of the popular little king Liao Yuan's new single "The One". Xia Wei has not yet graduated from Chinese opera, and she is a popular goddess, and her schedule is very tight. And Liao Yuan's side is similar, and it is really not easy for the two to get together to a common gap. Even so, the company still insisted that Xia Wei be the heroine of this MV.
Xia Wei and Liao Yuan are both artists of Zhongtang Entertainment. Zhongtang Entertainment is a very prosperous entertainment empire, including three branches of Tang Entertainment Film and Television, Tang Entertainment Music, and Zhongtang Economic Operation, and owns most of the entertainment industry in Chinese mainland. And Xia Wei's stepfather, Tang Zhongxing, is the chairman of Zhongtang Entertainment; Her mother, Xia Xiaohui, was a member of the board of directors and had injected the company's initial large sums of money. Praising Xia Wei is a natural behavior, but it is not the ultimate plan - Xia Wei will eventually get a piece of the pie at the top of this entertainment empire. As for when and how much, this is not a question that Xia Wei needs to consider at present, she is still too young after all.
As soon as the audition audio of "The One" was exposed on the Internet, it attracted a wave of hot comments. A few days ago, Liao Yuan and Xia Wei had a scandal of close personal relations. 25-year-old Liao Yuan is a hard-working singer-songwriter, there has been no peach news before, he and Xia Wei are both talented and beautiful, and their backgrounds are eye-catching.
As soon as the golden boy and girl had a relationship, it set off a huge CP boom on the Internet. What's even more poking at the G point is that Liao Yuan revealed during the promotion: "The song "The One" is a love song of great practical significance. ”
"Only", containing Xia Wei's name, "practical significance" is like window paper that is about to be pierced. Who else can this MV heroine be besides Xia Wei?
However, before the group reached the ticket gate, they learned the news: their flight was temporarily cancelled.
"Where's the closest?" Zhu Qian asked.
The assistant replied hesitantly: "I just asked, the nearest flight is an hour later, but...... Only economy class is available. If you want first class, you have to wait eight hours to ......"
"It's really weird, huh, the first class is full and the economy class is not satisfied?" Zhu Qian laughed angrily.
The assistant interjected: "People like to pretend to be forced now. ”
Xia Wei said again: "I have been pretending to be forced for twenty-two years." ”
Assistant: "......"
Eight hours, too much delay. But economy class......
Xia Wei's mouth was pursed into a line, obviously trying to accept the fact that "Miss Ben is about to take the economy class for the first time in her life". When making money for her own business, Miss Xia is still very dedicated.
"Brother Qian." The eldest lady made a request that was about to change her life, "I want a window seat." ”
An hour later, Xia and his entourage boarded the plane. To avoid being recognized, she covered her face so that all that was left was a slit between her sunglasses and her mask. But I didn't want to, in the economy class of this flight, I actually met an acquaintance.
"Sister Cui." She whispered hello to another experienced agent at her company.
Cui Mang was surprised when he saw them. Everyone knows that Xia Wei never takes economy class. Cui Mang was just about to stand up, but was pressed back by Zhu Qian.
"Sister Cui, what a coincidence. Our flight was cancelled. Zhu Qian explained in a whisper, and several people exchanged glances, and then completed the work of polite greetings. In public, they can communicate with little or less.
Cui Mang brought the newcomer idol group "Girl Revolution" whose popularity has been rising recently. The members of this group are three sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, who have been training trainees in Zhongtang since they were just in junior high school. This kind of Japanese and Korean idol trainee model is still a zero breakthrough in China, so since they officially debuted as a group in October last year, they have become popular on the Internet with their sweet looks, excellent idol su zhì and ingenious operation. The first single has swept the major Chinese charts not long ago.
It stands to reason that it's also on fire. But the hardware conditions for them have always been shabby. That's exactly what they're designed to do – sell badly. In this world, the more grassroots and close to the people, the more funny and popular it is. You see those out-of-fashion stars, as long as they become jokers, they will usher in the second spring one by one.
Xia Wei naturally pays attention to his company's cash cow. She knew these three girls, the captain was called Tang Feifei, and the other two were Sun Keren and Shen Bingqing.
The two girls sitting next to Cui Mang were Tang Feifei and Sun Keren, Tang Feifei was calmer when she saw her, Sun Keren blushed directly, and did not hide his admiration for Xia Wei. Another member, Shen Bingqing, sat in the window position in the row behind them, the child had his face facing out of the window, and he never turned back, ignoring their arrival.
Xia Wei's gaze swept to the side of her face, and thought: This attitude, no wonder it is the least popular among the three, and she has a good face blind. Xia Wei's seat was behind Shen Bingqing, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Shen Bingqing's face crooked to the seat and the window. She has closed eyes, her eyes are deep and narrow, her eyelashes are like curtains, and her nose is also good-looking, but her chin is not sharp enough, and she is a little baby fat.
It turned out that he was asleep, Xia Wei thought.
After surviving the take-off stage, Xia Wei finally felt more comfortable. She could never adapt to the pressure difference between take-off and landing, and this time she was still in a crowded economy class, and her mood was even worse. There was a baby crying intermittently in the back, and the noise made her upset. Zhu Qian knew her best, and knew that she couldn't sleep, so he took out a stack of thick scripts from his handbag and gave it to her, "This is what Xiang Zhou told you last time, the new script directed by Wang Chuan." Take a look. ”
The so-called "Xiang Zhou" is the son of Xia Wei's stepfather, that is, her current brother, Tang Xiangzhou. He was in charge of Tang Entertainment Film and Television Company in Zhongtang.
Xia Wei took the script and turned two pages, and his mood quickly calmed down. She is a natural film and television practitioner, and she has a precise aesthetic for everything in film and television, especially after studying directing in Chinese opera for three years. A good script can make her mood precipitate, and an excellent script will let her feelings be at the mercy of it. This "Legend of Ingenuity" is the latter.
Xia Wei finished the script in two hours, and was so moved by the story that he couldn't calm down for a long time, but his eyes were tired and sore. She took off her sunglasses and rubbed the bridge of her nose, closed her eyes and wanted to sleep for a while, but found that there was a bright hall in front of her, and she couldn't sleep.
It turned out that the small window next to Shen Bingqing was open, and the sun was shining in the current direction.
"Hey-" In fact, Xia Wei didn't even spit out the word "hey". She found that Shen Bing was awake, and her beautiful and bright eyes contained rolling sadness. Xia Wei was calmed by this kind of forbearance and thin-haired sadness.
Shen Bingqing's lips trembled slightly, his eyes were slightly red, and tears were piling up in his eyes little by little, but they never fell. But suddenly, the corners of her eyebrows widened, and the corners of her mouth were crooked, revealing a small evil dimple. Xia Wei's left eye, which Xia Wei could see, changed from extreme sadness to extreme bad in an instant. Shen Bingqing's face is relatively three-dimensional, and he is like a vampire when he makes a bad smile.
Xia Wei watched her freely switch between various expressions in fascination, and it took a while to understand that Shen Bingqing was reading a novel on her phone. Because she is too engrossed, these expressions are completely the natural expression of her automatic splitting into various characters in the novel after she entered the play.
In just this half of the effort, Xia Wei is not sleepy.
"What are you looking at?"
Xia Wei was patted by Zhu Qian, but fortunately, she didn't talk much, so she didn't have to explain anything at this time. Reluctantly interrupting the girl, she poked the back of the seat in front of her.
Shen Bingqing was obviously frightened. The original angry little daughter-in-law's expression froze on her face for a moment, and then immediately reverted to her standard expressionlessness. She looked back at Xia Wei, as if she had struggled for a short time in her heart, and then gave up, her expression relaxed, and her eyes bent.
Xia Wei said, "Help me close your window." ”
"Good!" Bang, the light is gone.
"Don't you know how to turn off the plane on the plane?" Xia Wei straightened his face.
"I'm not online." Shen Bingqing shook his phone, "Airplane mode." Then he grinned, showed two pointed tiger teeth, and turned back. Half of Xia Wei's face, which could be seen, disappeared on the other side of the back of the chair.
Xia Wei just closed her eyes, and heard a soft voice calling her from the front, "Goddess!" ”
Zhu Qian booed Shen Bingqing and motioned for her not to disturb Xia Wei's sleep, but Xia Wei rarely opened his eyes with a good temper.
Shen Bingqing smiled again, "Goddess, can you sign for me?" ”
Xia Wei didn't look very happy on his face, but nodded.
Shen Bingqing got the amnesty, took out the photo of Xia Wei in six chapters, and a marker, and respectfully offered it, "Trouble, six!" My mom and dad and my girlfriend love you! ”
"It doesn't take six, either."
"And the two of them!" Shen Bingqing pointed to Tang Feifei and Sun Keren in front.
Zhu Qian's face was full of black lines, and Xia Wei was even more unhappy, "Are you helping them ask for autographs?" ”
Shen Bingqing was stunned for a moment, righteous and awe-inspiring, "Yes, but I still count what I like you the most." ”
Xia Wei nodded, printed six copies of his signature as quickly as a printer, closed his eyes, and accepted a cheap "thank you, goddess" from the front seat.
