Chapter 144: Group Stage
It turned out that Ji Lingbai did have 200,000 yuan in that card at the beginning. It's just that later, when I saw the middle-aged man's performance, I thought that the middle-aged man said that 200,000 yuan was just the operation fee, so I asked my subordinates to pay another 30,000 yuan to the card.
It's not that Ji Lingbai is unwilling to give more, but she feels that 200,000 yuan is already a clear balance of money and goods. This 30,000 is already her sincerity, and if it is too much, it will be inappropriate.
The middle-aged man returned to the ward, and his wife was still waiting outside.
Seeing her husband coming over, she was still a little hesitant. "Did you really raise that money?"
It's really since their son got sick, the couple has experienced too much warmth and coldness, so although they heard their husband's words, they still didn't believe it.
The middle-aged man stepped forward and hugged his wife, "I really raised it, I have already gone to pay the money just now." ”
"That's really great. As she spoke, her wife unconsciously shed tears.
The middle-aged man also patted his wife on the shoulder, "Let's go see our son." ”
"Hmm. The two hugged each other and walked in.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it was the review month.
Ji Lingbai, who usually has a good foundation, is not so anxious to review his courses, so his life is still relatively easy, even the people in his group are the same.
When he was chatting with his subordinates, Ji Lingbai's phone suddenly rang.
"Qi Yayi?" How could he call him, Ji Lingbai was a little strange. The two haven't been in touch for a long time since they last met.
"What's wrong, is there something wrong with calling me?" Ji Lingbai has always been very direct in front of his friends.
Qi Yayi was obviously not very used to it, and was silent for a while before saying, "I heard that you are now reviewing for a month, and you shouldn't have many classes, are you interested in coming over to play?"
"Have fun, do you want to go to your school?" Ji Lingbai immediately understood what Qi Yayi meant.
Qi Yayi smiled, "That's right, the ranking of that movie should be coming out." ”
"Will your school still rank you?" Ji Lingbai is not a major after all, and he still doesn't know much about this.
"This should be a tradition in our school, and we will rank the students' graduation films. In fact, this can be regarded as a stepping stone for us to go out to work in the future. ”
As Qi Yayi said, students like him are also well-known in school. Went out, who knows who he is. However, with this movie with ranking significance as a stepping stone, it is different.
After all, the school where he works still provides a lot of talents for the entertainment industry every year, and the school's fame and strength are obvious to all.
"When you invite me now, you have a lot of confidence in this film. ”
Qi Yayi didn't expect Ji Lingbai to say his mind so easily, "Actually, it's not, after all, everyone's vision of things is different, and I can't guarantee that everyone likes my works." ”
Although Qi Yayi said it very modestly, how could Ji Lingbai not understand? "However, you are still very confident in your work, right?"
Qi Yayi didn't answer Ji Lingbai's words, "Just say if you come or not." ”
"Come, come. What time is it?" Ji Lingbai still gave an affirmative reply.
Qi Yayi was still very happy to hear Ji Lingbai's promise, after all, a large part of the success of this film is due to Ji Lingbai.
"Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, the same place as last time, you arrive to send me a message, I'll pick you up. ”
“OK。 Ji Lingbai hung up the phone after speaking.
Qi Yayi's phone call also reminded Ji Lingbai that Qi Yayi's time at school has been full for half a year......
Thinking of this, Ji Lingbai called the subordinate who helped him deal with things last time.
"Hey, Uncle Liang, is there any news about what I asked you about last time?"
They also quickly replied, "Now there is a little eyebrow, you want a big place, so I inquired about a new commercial building, because the place is relatively remote, so it is not very easy to sell, just buy one of the floors." ”
"I don't have to worry about you doing things, but how is the progress now?" This Ling Bai has long planned to open a company here, but there has been no suitable place.
"The project should be completed in two months. I expect the renovation to start after the year, and it will take about a month and a half to complete it. ”
Ji Lingbai secretly calculated the time in his heart, "Okay, where is that place?" I'll go and see it when I have time." ”
Hearing Ji Lingbai's words, he smiled, "I thought you still have to go to school, that place is quite close to your school." It's Chaoyang Road, if you're interested, go and see it. ”
Chaoyang Road is indeed quite close to his school, Ji Lingbai agreed. The two said something else, Ding Caixia walked in, and Ji Lingbai hung up the phone.
Ding Caixia was a little strange, even if she came back by herself, Ji Lingbai would not hang up the phone.
"Did I disturb you?"
Ji Lingbai was still thinking about things, but he still heard Ding Caixia's words for the first time, "Uh, no, it's just that the conversation is over." ”
"Oh. Ding Caixia responded and didn't speak.
"We shouldn't have anything to do tomorrow, right?" asked Ji Lingbai after a while.
Ding Caixia thought for a while, "It seems that there is not, Ling Bai, do you have something?"
"Yes, Qi Yayi asked me to go to their school tomorrow. Ji Lingbai gave the answer directly.
Ding Caixia frowned, "You and Qi Yayi?"
"Yes, that film will be ranked in their school tomorrow, and you know, it has my investment in it, so he invited me to see it tomorrow. ”
Knowing that it was not two people dating alone, Ding Caixia was much less worried. "What time is it?"
Ji Lingbai didn't know what Ding Caixia was thinking, but just gave the answer, "It seems to start at two o'clock, and I don't know when it will end." ”
"Well, come back early and tell us about it. Ding Caixia said.
Ji Lingbai is a little strange, Ding Caixia doesn't seem to be a person who is interested in this kind of thing.
"Good. But for his friend's request, Ji Lingbai still agreed.
The time soon came to the next day, Ji Lingbai came to the place where he watched the movie last time on time, there were a lot of people, and many of them were not simple students when they saw it.
Ji Lingbai called Qi Yayi directly, "I'm at the door, when are you coming." ”
"Stand there, I'll be there right away. Qi Yayi also quickly replied.
Ji Lingbai turned around the door and found a sign erected at the door, which said that the works that would be exhibited and selected today were written.
The selection of Qi Yayi's school will be held for a month, and there will be a centralized display every week, and ten of the films will be selected for the ranking within the group, and then the final competition will be held at the end of the month.
Now in the second month, it is the time for Qi Yayi's group to rank. Ji Lingbai took a look at the introduction of these movies and found that he had never heard of them. It shouldn't be a very famous film, Ji Lingbai guessed.
It's just that one of the names still attracted Ji Lingbai's attention, "Shi Mengqing?" Ji Lingbai whispered.
"She has the strength. A voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Ji Lingbai looked back and found that it was Qi Yayi. "When did you come?"
"I've been here for a while, and I didn't bother you when I saw you looking at this. Qi Yayi replied to Ji Lingbai.
Ji Lingbai looked at the time, "Let's go in now?"
"Hmm. Qi Yayi agreed, and led the way in front. No one intends to continue the topic just now.
When the two of them entered, most of the seats inside were already occupied. Qi Yayi casually found a place and let Ji Lingbai sit down.
At two o'clock, the event started on time.
At this time, Ji Lingbai knew that the ten selected films would not be broadcast in their entirety today, but the most exciting part of the whole drama would be broadcast.
But on second thought, after all, time is limited, and if every film is played in its entirety, it will definitely be too late.
After a brief introduction by the host, the screening of the film began. is different from the last time, at the end of each screening, the host will ask the main creator to go up and say a few words, in fact, this is also to give them the opportunity to appear in front of those people outside the school.
Qi Yayi's work happens to be ranked fourth, which is a good position. No matter how many times you see this film, you will have a different experience.
Qi Yayi walked up, "When I first saw this script, I had an idea that I had to shoot it. Although I encountered some difficulties later, I was fortunate to meet a very supportive Bole who gave me the opportunity to present this work to everyone......"
Qi Yayi said his true words, he has always been a very real person. There is a big difference between them and those who go up and thank the teachers, the school, and the sponsors. It also attracted the attention of some people at the first time.
Ji Lingbai had already heard someone around him whispering about Qi Yayi's information, although he knew that when Qi Yayi was still more than half a year away from graduation, his company would definitely be ready by that time. But in fact, Ji Lingbai already had a sense of crisis at this moment.
After Qi Yayi came down, she still sat directly beside Ji Lingbai.
The people in front were still talking about the next film, but Ji Lingbai felt that the characters on the podium were about to move.
Sure enough, when the film began to play, someone slowly sat down next to the two. For a large-scale event like this, the classrooms arranged are relatively large, so the crowd is more dispersed, and there are no people who change seats in the middle of the event.
Therefore, the man's performance is still quite obvious, but he doesn't seem to be aware of it, or rather, he is aware of it, but he doesn't care.
When that person sat down, Ji Lingbai glanced at it and found that that person was one of the people who had just inquired about Qi Yayi's situation with the others.
