Chapter 229: Coming and Going
A new year, a new year of busyness.
On the evening of 13 February, Li Yichen flew to Quang Pu City in Amber Province to stay there for one night, preparing to attend the opening ceremony of the crew of "You from the Star" to be held at the Guangpu Film and Television Base tomorrow morning, and then he had to rush back to Donghua City before the 15th to participate in the recording of "The Masked Singer" and "Please Give Me a Meal".
At the beginning of this year, Li Yichen's life rhythm has changed dramatically, he had already planned to wait for "You from the Star" to start filming, and try not to appear in the crew, originally he didn't even want to participate in the start-up ceremony, but he couldn't stand the persuasion of Qian Haoyan and Jiang Xingteng, so he had to reluctantly agree.
Who made Li Yichen popular now, although he still often eats closed-door soup when recording "Please Give Me a Meal", but on the Internet, Li Yichen's popularity is really no worse than that of ordinary traffic stars, please come to participate in the opening ceremony of the TV series, and it can also help the TV series increase some exposure.
Although "You from the Star" has Wang Muyao and Xu Yuankai joining, it already has a huge exposure, but this kind of thing, which crew will be too little.
"Sir, do you need water?"
On the plane, Li Yichen was accidentally recognized by a flight attendant, who was hindered by the company's rules and couldn't talk to him more, so she could only come over every now and then to care about Li Yichen.
"No, thank you."
Li Yichen politely refused.
He sat in economy class, in the aisle, there was a pair of grandchildren sitting in it, the little girl was about three or four years old, after seeing this situation a few times, she asked her grandmother curiously: "Grandma, grandma, why didn't my sister ask me if I was thirsty?" ”
"Then Xiaoci, are you thirsty?"
"Not thirsty ......"
"That airplane sister knew that Xiaoci was not thirsty, so she didn't ask you."
"But that brother isn't thirsty either, why doesn't Sister Airplane know?"
"Because ......"
The grandmother was a little stunned, thought about it, and then replied, "Because that brother is a star." ”
"What is a star?"
The little girl asked.
"Star ......"
The grandmother thought about it again and replied, "A star is someone who has a lot of people who like him, just like Princess Elsa, whom Xiaoci likes." ”
"Then why doesn't my brother wear a skirt?"
“……”
The grandmother was lost in thought again.
"Because Princess Elsa can tell stories, my brother can't."
Li Yichen replied with a smile.
"Then you don't know how to tell stories, what's the use of growing up so big?"
The little girl asked innocently again.
Li Yichen was stunned and fell into thought.
"Sorry for the trouble."
Seeing this, the grandmother hurriedly apologized to Li Yichen.
"It's okay, the kids are cute."
Li Yichen smiled, recalling that Li Shiyao and Li Xuefei were like this for a period of time when they were children, asking mad demons, there are 100,000 whys every day.
"My two younger sisters used to ask questions like this when they were younger, and now they are grown up and they are both smart and beautiful."
Li Yichen recalled.
"Haha, look at you are very handsome, and your sisters must be almost beautiful."
The grandmother originally thought that Li Yichen was just perfunctory when he said that her granddaughter was cute, after all, many young people now have no feelings for children, but when she heard Li Yichen's doting tone when she mentioned her sister, she knew that he really liked children, and she was quite happy.
After getting off the plane, Li Yichen found the crew staff sent by Qian Haoyan to pick him up, got into the crew car, and drove to the hotel where the crew stayed.
"It's not easy to invite a big star like you to run now."
Qian Haoyan stood at the door of the hotel and picked up Li Yichen and gave him a hug, but the two hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"It's hard to meet you, a well-known producer."
Li Yichen said with a smile.
"Where's our great director?"
"In the room, we ordered a supper, and we waited for you to eat together, let's go up."
"I don't drink bars, I don't drink."
"I ordered you a bottle of milk!"
"That's not going to ...... Regular drinks are fine. ”
Li Yichen and Qian Haoyan arrived at Jiang Xingteng's room noisily all the way, and also hugged Jiang Xingteng.
"Anyway, it's also the screenwriter of the crew, it's too much to shake your hands."
Jiang Xingteng didn't know if he had colluded with Qian Haoyan again, so he counted Li Yichen first when they met.
The three of them ate supper and chatted until the early hours of the morning, but they didn't feel the slightest sleep, but the more they talked, the more energetic they became.
After all, tomorrow's boot-up ceremony is a major event in the lives of the three of them.
simply chatted all night, and the next day, Li Yichen went back to the room to take a shower, changed into a suit, fiddled under the makeup artist of the crew for a while, covered the dark circles under his eyes, and went to the backstage waiting room at the start-up ceremony with Qian Haoyan and Jiang Xingteng.
Li Yichen first met Qin Xiaoyue there and exchanged a few words, and then the actors of the crew kept coming over to say hello to Li Yichen, hoping to be familiar in front of Li Yichen.
"Hey, isn't this our Teacher Li? What kind of wind is blowing you today? ”
Wang Muyao was the last to go to the backstage waiting room, and began to tease Li Yichen when they met.
"Northwest wind, I've seen the weather forecast."
Li Yichen stretched out his hand and hugged Wang Muyao virtually.
Wang Muyao smiled: "Watching the news that you are going to open a restaurant?" Remember to invite me to dinner when the time comes. ”
"I only found out about it by watching the news......"
Li Yichen sighed.
"We don't have a dishwasher in the restaurant, will you come?"
"Haha...... Hey, Director Jiang, you're here too......"
Wang Muyao walked away quietly.
At the start-up ceremony, the main creators of the crew all took the stage to accept interviews with the media, and Li Yichen was no exception, and was asked a few questions such as the origin of the inspiration for "You from the Star" and how he met Wang Muyao, Li Yichen was a little nervous, and his answer was decent.
After the long start-up ceremony, Li Yichen hurried back to Donghua City by plane.
Today is Valentine's Day, Li Yixuan hasn't gone to school yet, and told Li Yichen to go home early.
Li Yichen agreed as a matter of course, because in the past 20 years, he has spent Valentine's Day with his sisters, and it has long become a habit.
Besides, on the night of Valentine's Day, it is unnecessary for a person to wander around outside, and it is easy to be injured by mistake.
And Li Yichen hasn't slept all night, and he wants to go to bed early tonight to recover his energy, and then he has to record variety shows for two days in a row.
He now has a vague feeling that he is running out of time, and that he has more free time to spend with his family on Sundays every week.
Once "Li Restaurant" started recording and occupied two weekends a week, Li Yichen really had no free time at all.
