Chapter 4: Movies and Memories
Ji Qianyi's audition was not complicated, Chen Xin pointed out a short English line for him to perform. Fortunately, Xu Heyan was very effective in his English tutoring during this time, so the performance was quite smooth. Chen Xin was a little distracted when he listened to it, and the next audition for the other two people, he also looked like he was out of his body, and after it was over, He Jin, the screenwriter, and the producer had to discuss and make the final decision.
"Shang Yunze, who auditioned for the first time, feels pretty good, and idol singers will always have a lot of fans." Producer Sister Fang looked at Chen Xin's expression and expressed her opinion.
"I think the third Ji Qianyi is more suitable. He is a high school student, and his acting skills are very good as a child star, and today's table xiàn is also eye-catching. "Screenwriters have different opinions.
"I think so too. Ji Qianyi now has a drama on it, and his popularity is not inferior to the popular little fresh meat, and he is also very cost-effective. "He Jin is pushing Ji Qianyi.
Chen Xin didn't speak, carefully looked at Ji Qianyi's personal resume, which had the phone number of his agent Xu Heyan, he picked up his mobile phone and entered the string of numbers into his address book, and then hurriedly got up and left. The other three people were baffled by his behavior, and it was really abnormal to run away like this before they could discuss a result.
"Hey, Director Chen, I gave you an opinion before you left!" Sister Fang shouted.
"Ji Qianyi!" Chen Xin called out the name of the actor bluntly, without pausing at all.
When the audition ended, it was just after 4 o'clock, Xu Heyan promised to give him a holiday today, anyway, he would go back to school tomorrow, and his tutoring was officially over. She was going to send him home, so she said goodbye and left. Who knew that as soon as the car started, he said: "Xu Heyan, do me a favor!" ”
"What's the matter?" During the time he spent with him, Xu Heyan found that he didn't like to ask for help, and this was the first time he had spoken to himself.
"Accompany me to the movies and pick out a few gifts for me!" Ji Qianyi was in front of her, and she looked like an adult.
"Okay, just get some rest today. What style of gift you need, or who you want to give, I also need to have a prediction in advance! "Xu Heyan is okay today, accompany him to relax and relax, and he can relax himself.
"My sister's birthday is coming, and I want to give it to her." As he spoke, he began to play with his phone.
"Understood! Let's go to the movies first! What do you want to see? You can check it on your phone, I don't know about the movies that have been released recently. Xu Heyan's mind was spinning fast, she was thinking about what type of movie Ji Qianyi would like to watch, while thinking about which shopping mall to buy gifts, and driving at the same time, I don't know when, she practiced such a multitasking skill.
"I know of a small arthouse theater where you can choose which movies to play."
"Okay, let's go there!"
Xu Heyan didn't expect Ji Qianyi to choose a "Notting Hill" and a "Love Notebook", both of which are very classic romance films. Both movies are not a few years old with him, but she guesses that it should be because of this movie, this kid should take his work very seriously.
In the very small couple's box, a beam of light pierced the darkness and was projected onto the screen, and the classic "she" sounded, evoking Xu Heyan's long blurred memory.
In the second year of her parents' divorce, Xu Heyan was ten years old, and at that time, her father had already taken her sister who was three years older than her to France. She is also used to living with her mother, who is a small trader, at that time her mother was only 38 years old, and was laid off due to the poor efficiency of the store.
She is the quintessential key kid who learns to be lonely early. During the summer vacation of third grade, when she went downstairs to buy popsicles, she met a very fair-skinned and slender boy who looked like he was getting lost with a small suitcase. The little boy noticed a little girl biting a popsicle and looking at him with wide eyes, and although he was a little embarrassed, he reluctantly asked her.
This was the first time Xu Heyan and Chen Xin met, but Chen Xin at that time was not called by this name, but Tian Ruohan. Chen Xin came to her grandmother's house for the summer vacation, just a few floors away from her house, so they gradually became friends during that time, and "Notting Hill" was also the first movie he invited her to watch, but at that time she didn't understand the story very well. Later, when she went to college and attended a reading class, the teacher showed them this movie again, and it was then that she really understood the story, but the person who used to watch the movie with her had long since disappeared.
As the movie slowly draws to a close, an abrupt ringtone of her mobile phone pulls her back into the real world. As an agent, Xu Heyan's mobile phone is turned on 24 hours a day, although it is an unfamiliar number, she still has to answer it, and she gestured to Ji Qianyi and went out.
"Hello, I'm Xu Heyan, who are you?" Formulaic beginning, polite but ruthless.
"I'm Chen Xin, do you have time? How about a meal together? At this time, Chen Xin had already started the car.
"Today?" Xu Heyan looked at the door, "I already have an appointment today, next time." ”
"Alright then, here's my number, you remember. If you have anything, feel free to contact me. ”
"Okay, let's do it for now. Bye! ”
Hanging up the phone, Xu Heyan typed Chen Xin's name word by word, at the beginning, she almost typed Narita Ruohan, and set up a remarks to call - director!
When she first entered, "The Notebook of Love" just started: "Do you want to buy you something to eat?" This movie is more than two hours long! ”
"I've already bought it." Ji Qianyi pointed to a pile of things on the small coffee table and motioned for her to sit down quickly.
At the beginning, she was still a little distracted, she had also seen this movie, also with Chen Xin, at that time their main activity was to watch various movies, and it was probably influenced by this, so she chose English education as a major in college.
Probably because she was too tired during this time, her vision began to blur when she looked at her, and finally her consciousness fell into darkness completely. Ji Qianyi, who was watching with relish, had a heavy shoulder, Xu Heyan's head fell on his shoulder, looked sideways, his sleeping face was peaceful, and he also put his cheek against the top of her hair, as if against his mother. The strangest feeling he had for Xu Heyan was that he could always feel his mother's breath from her, and he was only a few years older than him.
It wasn't until the music sounded at the end of the movie that Xu Heyan slowly woke up, realized that she was leaning on his shoulder, and sat up all of a sudden.
"Sorry, I'm asleep!" Xu Heyan cleared her throat and sat up only to find that she was wearing a thin blanket on her body, which should have been coming from him and the waiter.
"Thankfully, it's over!" Ji Qianyi stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and had an indifferent expression, "Let's go eat first, and then pick out gifts later." ”
"Good!" Xu Heyan followed behind him, and when she woke up, she was still a little confused, so she had to follow him obediently.
It wasn't until more than ten o'clock in the evening that Xu Heyan sent him home and picked out a very strange gift for his sister, a couple watch, it is said that Ji Qianyi's sister Ji Tongxia has already been engaged, and the other party is her childhood sweetheart.
It was already more than 12 o'clock when Xu Heyan returned home, which was the earliest time she returned home during this time. She rented a small one-bedroom apartment in an urban village, and the furniture and electrical appliances in it were basically all things in her previous home, which were piled up, and the monthly rent of more than 1,000 yuan per month was still affordable. After taking a shower, she returned to her desk and continued to study Japanese seriously, she did not register for classes, she relied on self-study, and she had to draw an hour or two every day in this area.
