Chapter 114: Good technique
When Ji Xincheng was thinking about staying for dinner at Tang Tang's house, he received a call from his assistant.
"Sister Cheng, have you set off?"
Ji Xincheng leaned against the kitchen counter and thought for a long time before he remembered, "Oh no, I forgot, okay if you don't go?" ”
Ji Xincheng had no intention of going to the dinner after the completion of the new drama, but she agreed to be bored at home two days ago, and the WeChat group has always been undisturbed, and she remembered it cleanly.
"No, I promised not to attend, sister, do you want to be special?"
When the little assistant said this, Ji Xincheng had already taken off the apron around his waist, and listened to him and said: "Sister, you can come here, although it is not our home field, it means something, don't let people say that we are not social." ”
"Okay, I see, it's over."
Before leaving Tang Tang's house, I wanted to talk to Gu Shaoze that I would return later, but I took the phone in my hand and thought about it for a while before throwing it back into my bag. He's been so busy for the past two days, he doesn't have time to take a good look at her, so let him busy with him.
Thinking like this, Ji Xincheng was a little annoyed and a little aggrieved.
But in fact, objectively speaking, Gu Shaoze didn't seem to treat her well, at least he was still lying next to her every night, although he didn't touch him. Maybe he was too busy, when she was waiting at the intersection of the red light, she saw a couple snuggling up and talking on the bus next door, and suddenly had the idea of excusing Gu Shaoze.
But it's just a fleeting thought.
The finale banquet was set up in the box of an entertainment club, and as soon as she entered the door, she was wrapped in all kinds of sounds and smells.
Frowning, Ji Xincheng cheered up and quickly found Xiao Song who came to pick her up.
After greeting various leaders, Ji Xincheng sat down in his not very conspicuous position, and saw that Qiu Shang and the director and producer were happily talking at the focal point of the crowd.
couldn't help but ask Xiao Song, "Why is he here?" ”
"Brother Shang? It doesn't seem to be from our side, maybe it happened to run into it! ”
Xiao Song said, handing Ji Xincheng the corn juice she liked.
"Thank you!"
Ji Xincheng looked at Xiao Song and said seriously: "Xiao Song, how long have you been with your boss?" ”
"It's been almost four years, why did Sister Cheng suddenly ask about this?"
"Have you always been an artist assistant? Who have you been with? ”
Xiao Song reported a few names, but none of them were very famous, and some Ji Xincheng hadn't even heard of them.
Ji Xincheng looked at Xiao Song with some sympathy, Si Qian would arrange him by his side, either Si Qian attached great importance to him and let him control Ji Xincheng better, or he didn't pay attention to it very much, and just made an arrangement at will.
Obviously, Xiao Song is the latter.
Just as he was about to say something, Qiu Shang's arrival interrupted Ji Xincheng.
"Don't say you're here to eat again."
Ji Xincheng stood up and took the initiative to greet Qiu Shang, her voice was not loud, she was naturally straightforward, like an ordinary old friend.
"I'm here to find you."
Qiu Shang put his hands in his pockets, his posture was leisurely, and his smile was gentle.
"Looking for me?"
"I'll show you someone."
Ji Xincheng tilted his head slightly, as if he was weighing how serious he was, and Xiao Song on the side had already stood up, his eyes shining, "Is it the director?" ”
Obviously, he was still thinking about calling Qiu Shang to introduce resources to Ji Xincheng before.
Qiu Shang smiled deeply, and looked at Ji Xincheng with his eyes:
"Just check it out?"
Ji Xincheng didn't nod immediately, Xiao Song had already urged her:
"Go, go, sister, I'm greeting you here!"
"Look at your excitement, people haven't said if they want to sell me!"
Hearing what Ji Xincheng said to Xiao Song, Qiu Shang smiled, took over and said, "The money from the sale is also yours." ”
This is a joke, Xiao Song excitedly moved the chair and gave up Ji Xincheng's position, wishing she could leave quickly.
Following Qiu Shang out of the box, about to pass by the director's position, the female director got up, nodded to Ji Xincheng, and said to Qiu Shang: "Don't leave when it's over, I still have something to talk to you about." ”
Qiu Shang smiled and said okay, obviously he and his senior sister are very familiar with each other.
Ji Xincheng followed Qiu Shang to the private room next door, different from the crew's final banquet, this private room is much smaller in layout, but the details are obviously higher, because of the good sound insulation, as soon as the door is closed, it is another world.
Bypassing the screen, a middle-aged man sat alone on the sofa to answer the phone, and when he saw Qiu Shang and Ji Xincheng coming in, he hurriedly got up, asked them to sit first, and then walked to the window, and quickly ended the call in a low voice.
"Hello, you're Ji Xincheng, right?"
When the man put away his phone and turned it back, he stretched out his hand directly to Ji Xincheng.
He had slightly longer hair, his eyebrows and eyes were very tough under the cover of his long hair, his eyes were very bright, and he said to Ji Xincheng, "I'm Shen Fu." ”
Ji Xincheng felt that this name was familiar, not Shen Fu who wrote "Six Tales of Floating Life", but he couldn't find an impression among young directors for a while.
"Hello!"
Qiu Shang sat on the side, waiting for Ji Xincheng and Shen Fu to take a seat before introducing her:
"My good buddy, the screenwriter of the movie "Li".
turned out to be a screenwriter, Ji Xincheng likes that film very much, and is a highly rated and talented screenwriter in the industry.
"Ah, it turns out that you are the screenwriter Shen, I didn't expect the screenwriter who wrote such an excellent work as "Li" to be so young!"
Ji Xincheng was surprised and said truthfully.
"There's an old man living in me."
After Shen Fu finished speaking, he laughed, suddenly cheerful, without the gloomy atmosphere common to some literati today.
Ji Xincheng knew that this was a very good person.
"That's-"
Shen Fu poured tea for Ji Xincheng and got straight to the point, "I recently completed a new book, it can be said that I thought of you when I confirmed the hostess's design, but I never found a chance to meet you, I didn't expect this guy Qiu Shang to be so familiar with you, if I knew earlier, what would I do with those things!" ”
"You mean, you want me to play the heroine?"
"Right!"
Ji Xincheng cautiously confirmed, and Shen Fu readily agreed.
She was naturally pleasantly surprised, but she still glanced back at Qiu Shang, who had also been looking at her, as if she was not convinced, and nodded: "Do you want to read the book first before deciding?" ”
Ji Xincheng said busily:
"I didn't mean that, I was just worried, can I do it?"
"You don't need to worry about this at all, I think you can, it's up to you to play, I believe this heroine will be more exciting!"
Shen Fu looked at Ji Xincheng excitedly with an expectant gaze, and said with great certainty.
At the same time, he took out the printed script from his bag and handed it to Ji Xincheng:
"Don't worry, the other matters of this film haven't been implemented so quickly, you can take it back and see it first, and then give me an answer after thinking about it, is it okay?"
Ji Xincheng was indeed a little flattered in his heart, Shen Fu's "Li" became the hottest topic of the year when it was released, and Shen Fu, who won several awards and became famous in one fell swoop, was so unattainable in everyone's discussions, Ji Xincheng didn't expect him to be so sure of himself.
Take the script and nod your head.
The eyes unconsciously fell on Qiu Shang again, wouldn't it be the favor he secretly sold for her again?
"Are you going back? Then I'll send you there. ”
Qiu Shang took the lead in getting up, Ji Xincheng didn't mean this, so he had to stand up with his notebook.
"Screenwriter Shen, shall I add your WeChat?"
Ji Xincheng took out his mobile phone, Shen Fu remembered it, and also took out his mobile phone:
"Yes, I almost forgot about it!"
Seeing that they had added each other's contact information, Qiu Shang took Ji Xincheng and left Shen Fu's private room.
Ji Xincheng always intended to keep a distance from Qiu Shang, because of the scandal between the two of them last time.
Qiu Shang could naturally see that he was very cooperative throughout the whole process, and stood a little away from her, "Don't think about it, I did hear him mention you when he talked about the selection of the hostess, so I said that I knew you and introduced him to him." His affirmation of you has nothing to do with me. ”
Ji Xincheng looked at Qiu Shang seriously, he explained it like this, what else could she say.
"Anyway, Screenwriter Shen was able to find me because you were his friend, I still have to say, thank you!"
"Okay, then I'll accept this thank you for the time being, you read the book first, and then make a decision."
Ji Xincheng nodded, and the two of them entered the private room of Ji Xincheng's crew.
The banquet is already halfway through, and those who can drink have drunk a lot of wine, and some actors are very concerned about Ji Xincheng on weekdays, and when they see her, they all want to have a drink, despite Xiao Song's best efforts, they are still quickly surrounded by everyone.
Ji Xincheng didn't want to drink too much on an empty stomach, so he made an excuse to go to the bathroom and left the box.
After coming out of the women's bathroom, Ji Xincheng walked to the side of the rest area and flipped through her mobile phone, there was still no news from Gu Shaoze, she was looking at other unread messages, and heard two girls smoking next to her, gossiping:
“…… is so swaggering, who believes it when he says it doesn't matter! ”
"That's right, you didn't see his eyes, but he was affectionate!"
"I probably really like it, I can even make up such words as idols, otherwise I will lose so many fans, and I will pay several endorsements, who can stand it......"
"It can't be the endorsement of that watch, right? That brand has never found an Asian endorsement, but he is the first! ”
"That's why I said people really like it!"
"What's so good about her, she can still make him worry so much when she is married!"
"The technology is good! Otherwise, President Gu can ......"
With a "snap", Ji Xincheng accidentally dropped the mobile phone on the ground, and asked the two girls to look back, when they saw that it was Ji Xincheng, they couldn't help but be taken aback, and then when she lowered her head to pick up the phone, she ran away without a trace.
If Ji Xincheng wasn't sure that they were talking about her, he would have been convinced at this time.
I didn't expect Qiu Shang to sacrifice so much for her......
Tightly, the phone shattered the screen on the floor, and he didn't care, he held it in his hand, until he found that it was wrong to take his hand away, only to find that the tiger's mouth was cut by screen fragments, and small strands of blood flowed out.
I didn't even feel pain.
went to the front desk and asked for disinfectant pads and band-aids, Ji Xincheng dealt with them silently, and then called Xiao Song and asked him to send her bag to the hall.
"What's wrong, Sister Cheng?"
"I have something to go back first, can you tell the director for me?"
"Okay, then you wait for me, I'll go talk to the director and send you back."
"No, I'm driving."
"But you're drinking!"
"I'll call a substitute driver, it's fine."
Seeing that she insisted, Xiao Song had no choice but to nod and turn around and enter the box.
Ji Xincheng was a little frustrated, she was not used to calling a substitute driver, so she wanted to go out and take a taxi home.
Passing through the roundabout, before reaching the side of the road, on a path leading to the garden on the side, a group of young figures attracted Ji Xincheng's attention.
She saw the only little girl among the young people in the middle, and the boys were drinking and doing things to the girl, and the girl seemed unwilling.
"What are you doing?"
Ji Xincheng didn't hesitate, stepped forward, pulled away a boy who was shorter than her, and stood beside the girl.
The girl lowered her head at first, but when she heard the sound and raised it, Ji Xincheng couldn't help but be stunned: "Gu Tingting? ”
"Where did you come from, it's really good!"
Like the leading boy among the boys, he brushed everyone away and walked to Ji Xincheng, with a ruffian smile on his face, and he raised his hand to raise Ji Xincheng's chin, but she retreated and dodged.
"What are you doing?"
This time, her tone was a little more stern than before, Gu Tingting glanced at her, her eyes were blank, and she was obviously very drunk.
"I'm her aunt, what are you going to do to her?"
"Auntie? Auntie so young? ”
"Auntie play together!"
The crowd burst into laughter, Ji Xincheng pulled Gu Tingting to leave, but the latter threw his hand away: "Who are you?!" What a bullshit aunt, it's just my uncle's bedside! A little self-aware, okay? ”
Ji Xincheng thought that Gu Tingting was very drunk, but she was stunned by her sarcastic clear eyes, like a slap in the face.
"Do you know these people?"
"I don't know what your is! What qualifications do you have to control me! ”
As she spoke, Gu Tingting casually grabbed a boy with tattoos on his neck next to her, leaned on his shoulder, and didn't forget to give Ji Xincheng a roll of her eyes:
"Stay away from me! It's dirty! ”
She shook her hand, not knowing if it was the sweat on her hand that rubbed against the boy's neck, or Ji Xincheng.
Ji Xincheng took a deep breath, didn't get angry immediately, and wanted to step forward to pull her, when two girls came from the shadows.
knew Gu Tingting, they stepped forward to stand beside Gu Tingting and asked her who Ji Xincheng was.
Gu Tingting didn't reply to them, but took the girl's hand, turned around with the group of boys and walked towards the back door of the clubhouse, which was the parking lot.
Ji Xincheng, who was left alone in place, smelled the smell of various perfumes on the young boys and girls, endured it, and finally turned around and went back to his home.
She has the obligation to take care of Gu Tingting for Gu Shaoze, but she has to be willing to let Ji Xincheng take care of her.
Ji Xincheng returned home, Gu Shaoze was already in the study, he seemed to hear her voice, and specially walked out of the study and blocked her at the bedroom door, "Where have you been?" This whole day. ”
