Chapter 100: The Last Train
(The two chapters are combined, and there is another chapter in the evening, which will be restored from tomorrow and updated at nine o'clock every night)
When Su Qing came to the publishing house to see Alice, before she could say a word, she was pulled by Alice to the conference room, pushed the door and went in to see that Li Zerui was sitting in the center of the conference room, waving to herself.
"Li Zerui?"
Su Qing stared at Li Zerui and read out his name blankly, only to find that Li Zerui was followed by a few people, all of whom looked like senior managers of large companies.
"You're late!" When Li Zerui heard Su Qing's words, he raised his hand and pointed to the gold watch on his wrist and said, "One minute!" ”
"......" Su Qing lowered her head a little embarrassed when she heard this, and said in her heart that it was not the middle school students who were discussing ghost stories on the subway, so she sat directly at the station, and she was late.
"Our Su Qing is a newcomer, and we are a little nervous for the first time to come to this kind of occasion, so we prepared a little time outside the door before coming in, and I am really sorry for delaying Mr. Li's time!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Alice hurriedly stepped forward to play a round, she didn't expect that the takeover party would be the big actor Li Zerui, but now she knows that she must not talk about things because of this little thing, which is not only bad for Su Qing, but also a great loss to herself.
Hearing Alice's words, Li Zerui didn't say anything, but when he saw Su Qing standing in place with some anxiety and rubbing his hands, he felt that he had just gone too far.
"The ......"
Li Zerui suddenly got up and startled several people in the conference room, and even Su Qing was shocked by his sudden move to come to him.
"I'm sorry, ...... Just now, I just wanted to play a joke with you, but don't take it personally! Li Zerui gestured as he spoke, wanting to comfort Su Qing but didn't know where to start, so he could only stare at him in a hurry.
"I ...... I'm fine. Seeing Li Zerui, who was too enthusiastic, Su Qing, who was originally fine, had something to do, and Yu Guang noticed that several people present were looking at him. Su Qing's face, which was originally a little ruddy because of nervousness, is now even redder.
"You ...... Know? ”
Seeing the interaction between Li Zerui and Su Qing, if someone like Alice can't see that there is a cat between the two, they have lived in vain for so many years.
I thought it was pie in the sky, and the blind cat met a dead mouse, it was all luck. But now it seems that it is not just luck. Shengtian Group's investment in this book is probably due to Su Qing.
Who doesn't know the surname of Shengtian Group Li? This new actor superstar is the owner of Shengtian Group, but Li Zerui can become an actor not only because of his identity background, but also because of his acting talent that can directly kill many actors from professional classes, and even some directors have commented that Li Zerui is a natural actor under the camera. In other words, he was born to eat this bowl of rice, coupled with the escort of the Li family, he naturally became prosperous in the entertainment industry.
"Why are you here?" Su Qing lowered her voice and asked the elated Li Zerui beside her, although Alice was very vague on the phone, Su Qing could hear what she meant that someone should have taken a fancy to this book and wanted to make it into an online drama, as for why it is an online drama, it is just because of the limitations of the subject matter.
"The director said let me come and see the author of the book, so I came." After Li Zerui finished speaking, he winked at Su Qing, "I didn't expect the author of the original book to be Su Qing, this is very unexpected." ”
Director Huang is a very famous director under Shengtian Group. As long as a certain theme has made a TV series or movie with high popularity, high reputation, and high evaluation, Director Huang will not repeat that type of theme, saying that it is a classic, and only waiting for future generations to innovate and surpass the classics.
As for themes like supernatural, Director Huang has guided once before. However, the effect is not too good, and it has not caught up with the expected effect of Director Huang, after all, this kind of theme is not popular, and if you don't pay attention to it, you may fall to the bottom of the pit.
Li Zerui and Huang Dao have also cooperated several times before. is very pleasant, compared to those stars who like to play big names when they become famous, Li Zerui is relatively modest, he has a good temper in the group, and he will not embarrass the assistant at will, etc., even if it is a cold day. In order to shoot, I will also travel lightly, without complaints.
Based on these, if it weren't for the controversy caused by Li Zerui when he debuted, I'm afraid no one would believe that he would be the son of Shengtian Group.
This time, I received a call from Director Huang and found a very good supernatural script, but it was just an online drama, and I asked him if he would like to come.
Originally, Li Zerui just ended the filming of a movie, not the protagonist but the second male, but Li Zerui liked the character and story of the second male very much, so he took the time to take over the play. I just returned to China and wanted to relax, but the words of refusal came to my lips, but when I heard Director Huang say the name and subject matter of the book, I always felt that I had heard it somewhere, so I followed. Who knew God would give him such a big surprise!
"Surprise?" Su Qing blinked at Li Zerui, and after confirming that he was not lying, she turned to look at the other man who was walking towards them.
"Let me introduce, this is Director Huang, Director Huang, she is the Su Qing I mentioned to you."
Seeing Director Huang coming over, Li Zerui warmly introduced himself to Director Huang, listening to Li Zerui's tone, it seemed that he had mentioned himself to Director Huang before, and it seemed that the relationship between Director Huang and Li Zerui was not bad.
"Hello, Miss Su."
"You're so polite, Director Huang."
"Zeri often mentions you, saying that if you can enter the entertainment industry, your achievements will not be worse than his."
After listening to Director Huang's words, Su Qing suddenly had a sense of surprise as to whether she was hallucinating, or if her illness had not yet recovered, and her mind was still in the mirror world.
What level is Li Zerui, and what level is himself, Su Qing thinks that he is not a natural actor, let alone a professional class, and his status is not inferior to Li Zerui, isn't it the queen of the circle?
Tut-tut, this thing is something that Su Qing didn't dare to think about and never thought of, let alone the actress, Su Qing never thought that she would enter the entertainment industry since she was born.
"This ...... How can this be, how dare I compare with Li Zerui, this is not a level. Su Qing didn't even think about it and said what was in her heart directly, who knew that Director Huang didn't laugh angrily after hearing this, and even nodded, "I believe in Zerui's vision, and ......"
Director Huang suddenly paused as he spoke, looked at Su Qing with some concern, and sometimes discussed something in a low voice with a few other people, and then those people nodded in agreement. It should be that I agreed with Huang Dao's suggestion.
"And?"
"Before I came, I was still on the road thinking about who would play the heroine's position, but now that I see the original book of this book, Huang feels that I don't need to think about it anymore."
Although Director Huang's words were not very straightforward, Su Qing was not. But the people present are not stupid, they can still understand the words, and they are not telling Su Qing that the heroine of this book you wrote yourself, let the author do it himself.
"Nope. No, I can't! Su Qing waved her hand and shook her head, she couldn't do this kind of thing, so it was better to leave it to a professional actor.
"Hey, what's wrong with that." Li Zerui looked at Su Qing with stars in his eyes, Director Huang's words were right in his heart, Li Zerui was worried that he hadn't gone to the old house since he came back from filming, and he was uncomfortable, so he gave the excuse back to him.
I went to live in the old house again through filming, hehe. Li Zerui patted his forehead and said that he was so smart, it was amazing!
"Miss Su, don't worry, this book was written by you, and your understanding of the role of the heroine is naturally closer to the original than others, as for acting skills and the like, I believe that with Zerui's help, it is not difficult."
"But ......"
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and no one wants to see the book they worked so hard to write be photographed in a different way, right?"
Seeing this, Alice persuaded a few words on the side in a timely manner, which made Su Qing a little shaken.
Yes, Alice was right. This book is her experience, what she has really experienced and written, not the product of nonsense and grandstanding. Not to mention shooting, it was already unexpected for Su Qing to be published, the heroine in the book was originally a character based on herself, and now listening to Alice say this, Su Qing really began to think about this problem.
"That'...... Okay, I'll try to act first. If it really doesn't work, please guide Huang ......"
"Don't try to act, since you have decided, you have to do your best!" Immediately interrupted Su Qing's words, Director Huang looked at Su Qing with a stern expression, "As long as you try your best, you will always gain something." ”
"Well, I will!"
For the first time, Su Qing felt that she was needed by others, this feeling was very amazing, listening to Director Huang's words, Su Qing decided to live up to Director Huang's expectations.
It's just that Su Qing still doesn't know what kind of achievements the TV series starring her has achieved, and she became famous overnight, which is probably the case.
After that, several people talked about it very happily, the heroes and heroines were decided, and the rest of the roles were checked by Director Huang, so naturally they would not be bad, and with the support of Shengtian Group, there were strong funds, and there was nothing that could not be discussed.
Afterwards, Alice said that she would invite Director Huang to dinner, but Director Huang told Alice that he had an appointment, and the other party was a producer and also wanted to invest in this TV series, so he asked Alice and Su Qing if they would like to follow him to see it.
Su Qing is not very good at these communicative things, and she doesn't know much about the rules on the wine table, not to mention that she still has a little thing to improve, so she naturally declined Director Huang's invitation, as for Alice, Su Qing doesn't go to this kind of thing, she, the representative of Su Qing, naturally has to take a look, not to mention taking this opportunity to be close to Director Huang, why not.
It's just that Li Zerui, who was waiting for Su Qing, was called home halfway by a phone call, and by the time Su Qing stretched out after being busy, it was already past nine o'clock.
"It's so late." Su Qing stared at the wall clock for two or three seconds, and then immediately picked up her bag and ran towards the subway station with a scream.
Although there will be a part of the salary for the adaptation of the TV series and his own appearance, Su Qing, who is used to frugality, still has some difficulties because she is generous all of a sudden, and the last train of the subway is after ten o'clock, and there is still a chance to rush there now.
"Whew, whew." Su Qing, who was standing on the subway platform, took a few breaths, and said in her heart that she had run too much these days, which was longer than the previous twenty years of sports running.
But fortunately, I caught up, otherwise some of the long-distance buses may have closed this big night, and I really can't go back?
After a while, Su Qing heard the low sound of the subway and the flickering of the arrows under her feet, thinking that it was the last subway, and she would get off at the nearest station to the old house, and when she walked up, it would be two hours away, and she should be able to go home before twelve o'clock.
Touching her chest, Su Qing stepped onto the last train, plugged in the headphones and found a place to sit down, flipping through her mobile phone to listen to music.
This is a habit that Su Qing has developed since she was a child, there may be no one at home on weekdays, Su Qing is afraid, she has always relied on listening to music to fall asleep.
The carriage, which was originally crowded during the day, looked exceptionally empty in the last train, with only a few passengers, all sitting separately, flipping through their mobile phones.
Thinking that she still had more than an hour left, Su Qing, who was sitting on the chair and relaxing, actually fell asleep leaning on the armrest.
I don't know how long I drove, and when Su Qing woke up, several other passengers in this carriage had disappeared, maybe they got off the train before, rubbing their eyes, Su Qing stared at the small screen above the subway in a daze, to see where she was.
"Little River Bridge?"
Su Qing muttered the name, and then blinked a little suspiciously, rubbed her eyes in disbelief, and opened her eyes vigorously to stare at the name of the station, it was indeed Xiaohe Bridge!
How...... How so! Su Qing suddenly felt agitated, and she didn't feel sleepy. This station is obviously the station where I got on the train, it is impossible to sit at this station for so long, is it possible that this car has finished the whole journey, and now it is back to Xiaohe Bridge?
Thinking of this, Su Qing hurriedly clicked on her mobile phone, and the time on it showed that only half an hour had passed, and half an hour was definitely not enough time for the train to open the entire line and then go back backwards.
It's weird, could it be that you've seen the hell?
Thinking of this, Su Qing suddenly remembered the conversation of the middle school students she heard on the subway today, and suddenly shuddered, stood up with some anxiety, and looked around.
In the empty carriage, she couldn't see anyone except her, and took off a headset, Su Qing listened to the sound of the subway speeding by, and her heart rose to her throat.
According to the normal speed of the subway, the distance between one station and the other station is impossible to drive for a few minutes or even ten minutes on a top day.
Su Qing listened to the music in the headphones, which didn't add up to ten minutes but at least ten minutes, not to mention that Su Qing had sat on this line, and the distance between it and the next station was only about a minute, but now the subway has no intention of stopping, and it is still running ahead of speed.
Could it really be that she met an urban legend? (To be continued.) )
