There aren't many people in the bookstore, which is very different from the hustle and bustle of Chinese bookstores, where at 7:15 p.m. there are only two or three customers choosing the books they are interested in.

Zhou Shaoming looked around, the youngest customers who appeared here were all in their twenties, and there was no beautiful and generous 16-year-old girl.

"Sir, do you need help? What kind of book do you want to buy? The beautiful salesman walked over with a smile, as if she was very interested in the black-haired Zhou Shaoming.

"Oh, I'm not going to buy books, I'm here to find someone, but it doesn't seem like she's here." Zhou Shaoming smiled, and then shrugged his shoulders regretfully.

"Oh, you're looking for someone? So who are you looking for? Maybe I know where her home is, but the town of Napani isn't big, and we all know each other well. The salesman was obviously very interested in Zhou Shaoming, and then asked.

"Uh, well! Do you know a girl named Avril Lavigny? I've heard that she often comes here to read, and occasionally sings a few lines when she's happy. Zhou Shaoming touched his head, which had grown short hair.

"You mean the little witch Averl? Haha, there's no one in town who knows her better than I do! Why, which record label are you a scout? Are you going to poach her to sing? It's definitely a great idea! Avril is a rare genius girl! The salesman opened his mouth in surprise, and then the expression on his face was that you had found the treasure.

"Little witch? Forgive me for taking the liberty of not being a scout for a record label. I'm Smith Chow, a Hollywood film director, and I'm looking for Avril because I want her to be part of my film. Zhou Shaoming pretended to be modest and said.

"Oh my God! Are you a film director in Hollywood? You're so young! You call me Shirley, everybody calls me that. Shirley, the salesperson, bared her snow-white teeth, and she was happy to meet a young Hollywood director today.

"Uh, Shirley, isn't Avril here today?" Zhou Shaoming was a little uncomfortable, and when the twenty nodding girls in front of him heard that she was a movie director, the light in her eyes seemed to be that a hungry wolf suddenly found food.

"Ahh She, she didn't come here today, I don't know where to play with the guitar! Smith Chow, what movies have you directed? Why don't you tell me about it? Also, do you think my appearance can go to Hollywood to be a movie star? ”

"Uh, you're beautiful, I'm sure you can!" Zhou Shaoming was stunned and lied knowingly.

But he still underestimated a girl's desire to become famous, and the startled Zhou Shaoming looked at the girl who was dancing with joy and almost jumped into his arms, and retreated again and again.

"Mr. Smith Zhou, I'm also good at acting! I often go to the community theater, do you think I can go to Hollywood? Or, you can test me with a performance question! Hey, sir, don't go! ”

Zhou Shaoming almost escaped from the bookstore, and he didn't want to be pestered by Shirley, who wanted to be a star.

In order to get rid of the girl who was extremely enthusiastic and her star dream suddenly exploded, Zhou Shaoming sped up his pace.

Just turned the corner, a girl with a wooden guitar on her back and a skateboard suddenly appeared, and the wind swept in front of her, startling Zhou Shaoming.

"Hey, girl! Beware! Zhou Shaoming said loudly angrily, raising his lonely middle finger.

The girl looked back, grimaced with her tongue out, shook her chestnut straight hair, and flew off the skateboard without saying a word.

"This little girl!" Zhou Shaoming scolded secretly, and just wanted to turn his head to go to the pizza shop to eat something, but suddenly stopped.

Maroon hair, guitar, skateboard! She can't be Averl!

Zhou Shaoming chased after him, and while chasing, he shouted: "Ai Weier!" My heroine! Wait for me! ”

The pedestrians on the street looked curiously at Zhou Shaoming, who was running wildly, as if this quiet, slow-paced town had not seen someone as anxious as him for a long time.

Zhou Shaoming, who was out of breath when he was running, finally stopped, and the skateboarding girl appeared in front of her like an angel, and it was like the morning mist blown away by the wind, and she disappeared like this.

Waking up from a wonderful dream, Zhou Shaoming turned over and got up, today is a big day, and he can't be lazy in bed.

After spending more than ten minutes washing, Zhou Shaoming picked out a jacket and the jeans that Christina bought for him, and went out happily.

Dressed like this because Ai Weier is a punk rock girl, if she wears a straight suit, it may make her feel that she is not the same kind of person, which is not good for inviting her to participate in the movie, Zhou Shaoming knows that the first image is very important.

Outside the hotel gates, it was already quite chilly at the end of November in Napani, and soon snow would cover this peaceful and simple town.

When he came to Ai Weier's middle school, Zhou Shaoming first met with the principal of the school and explained his identity and intentions, which would make his plan easier.

"Oh, I've never seen such a young director of yours!" Principal Louse Fiburne expressed his admiration and said, "You traveled all the way to Canada, to the small town of Napani, just to find Avril to make a movie?" How do you know there's such a girl? I beg your pardon, I don't have any doubts about your identity, but as her teacher and principal, I need to be serious. ”

"I knew from a friend that there was a very brilliant girl with a perfect voice and a beautiful appearance, and he only noticed her when he met her occasionally in a chain bookstore and heard her sing. This is my directing certificate, and my first film is now being screened in theaters called Chainsaw, and I think Mr. Chancellor will soon see it in the cinema in Napani. Zhou Shaoming nodded in understanding, took out his director card and handed it to Principal Laws.

And "Saw Horror" will land in Canada at the end of January 2000, so it's normal that Laws, the principal of Napani, Canada, hasn't seen it.

After receiving the certificate, Rouse looked at it carefully, although he didn't know what kind of proof Hollywood film directors would have, but the beautifully decorated certificate in front of him didn't look like a fake.

"Okay, Mr. Smith Zhou, wait a minute, I'll call someone to call Averl." Headmaster Rouse asked his teacher to call Averl who was in class, and then smiled and said, "Please be seated, sir." Can I ask what the film you want to make is about? Or a horror movie? Forgive me for being curious. ”

"It's an honor to tell you about my films, Mr. Rolls. My film is just about the school and the students, it is not a horror movie, it is a warm story about love, tolerance, salvation and change between teachers and students, there is no blood, no violence, not even swear words, it is a warm film work like a warm winter sun. Zhou Shaoming naturally would not let go of this opportunity to show off, and sat on the sofa and began to explain the content of "The Spring of the Cattle Herding Class".

"You are such a socially responsible director! It is true that the future of every country and every nation lies in children and education, and there are fewer and fewer directors who are willing to make this kind of film. Now movies have become a source of violence, a school for criminals, if you want to ask Averel to make that kind of film, to be honest, I don't approve of it, but this movie, I will go to the cinema to cheer you on! Principal Rouse listened carefully to Zhou Shaoming's brief explanation, and praised unfreely.

Zhou Shaoming smiled embarrassedly, and at this time, there was a knock on the office door.
