Xiaoting took out all kinds of food from her bulging backpack, all of which were brought to her at home, and carefully wrapped them in three layers of plastic bags, and Tao Ye helped to open them one by one.

"What is this? Dumplings... Hey, there's also sauced beef, oops, and fried hairtail, what is this? ”

"This is also sauce beef, my mother has divided it, saying that she will put it in the refrigerator first, and then take it out when you eat it, for fear that it will spoil."

"What is this?" Seeing Xiaoting take out another glass jar from her bag, Tao Ye asked.

"Stir-fried shredded pork with mustard."

Tao Ye said with envy: "Your parents have brought you so much delicious food, which is enough for you to eat for a month." ”

"Envy."

"Sort of." Tao Ye couldn't stop nodding.

In the kitchen, Tao Ye fried dumplings on the stove, and the dumplings sizzled in the oil pot. Xiao Ting was holding a bowl next to her and stirring eggs with chopsticks, and chopped tomatoes were placed on the board.

"This is all brought to you by your parents, I can't eat it, I'll make a tomato and egg soup."

"That's right! I used to go to art school, and every weekend when I came home, my dad would fry a jar of mustard and shredded pork for me, fry a lot of fish and take it to school, saying that it was enough for me to eat for a week, but it turned out that it was robbed by the classmates in the dormitory within two days, and the dormitory next door smelled and came to grab it. ”

"Your dad did this, huh?" Tao Ye put the fried dumplings on an empty plate.

"Yes, my dad's cooking is delicious, but my mother's rice is so delicious that my dad can't learn anything."

"My daughter is my father's little lover in my last life, it's really true, your father is a daughter slave."

Xiaoting asked childishly: "Then if I treat you well, I will share all the delicious food with you." ”

"Okay, why not." Tao Ye deliberately learned the Jinzhou dialect.

"Then you call Sister Sheng, and Sister will cover you in the future."

"That's it, Sister Ting."

"It's quite sweet! You are not allowed to treat me badly in the future, let alone bully me, tell you that there are people over there now, if you bully me, let my grandma take you away. ”

"You think it's just you, and I have it."

Xiaoting asked tentatively, "Are you really an orphan?" ”

Tao Ye smiled indifferently and said, "That's right." ”

"I don't believe it."

Xiao Ting looked at Tao Ye suspiciously, observing her words. She never told Tao Ye about Tao Ye's father's visit, because Tao Ye's father repeatedly told her that she must keep it a secret for the time being.

The coffee table was full of delicious food, fried shredded pork with fish sauce, beef mustard, and freshly fried dumplings, Xiaoting was already sitting at the table, holding chopsticks in her hand and ready to eat. Tao Ye walked into the room with a small pot in his hand and put the pot on the coffee table, which was steaming with tomato and egg soup.

Xiaoting suddenly remembered something, "Ah, I almost forgot." ”

Xiao Ting got up and went over to open her suitcase, and took out a bottle of Moutai from it and happily handed it to Tao Ye.

"Dangdang..."

Tao Ye asked in surprise: "Moutai, where did you come from?" ”

Xiaoting opened the box of wine, "I asked my dad for it, I said I was going to give it away, and someone else gave it to him anyway." ”

"Give it away, who can you send, your father will believe it."

"Liar!"

Xiaoting was immersed in her own happiness, opened the package, took out two small wine cups first, and admired happily.

"Oh, there's such a delicate little wine cup, no wonder it's the national wine."

Tao Ye unscrewed the cap of the bottle, and Xiao Ting scrambled to pour the wine.

"I fall, I fall."

Xiao Ting trembled and filled the two small wine cups, unsteady in her grasp, and the wine spilled out a little.

"You drink too?"

"That's right, this shows that we are in love, and it's the New Year."

The two of them picked up the wine cup, and Xiaoting touched the glass with Tao Ye decently.

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Both of them said loudly at the same time.

Xiao Ting carefully brought the wine glass to her mouth and took a sip, and immediately stuck out her tongue spicily, Tao Ye tilted his neck and dried the wine. The two of them ate, and Tao Ye ate the dumplings with relish.

"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious, it's still delicious at home, my grandmother used to make dumplings at every turn, and said that it was better to lie down, and it was better to eat dumplings."

Xiao Ting looked at Tao Ye, and without waiting for Xiao Ting to ask, Tao Ye teased nonchalantly: "Now I'm in the same place with your grandmother." ”

Tao Ye always speaks with the kind of energy that doesn't care about anything, and dares to ridicule everything, and the tone of his speech is even transmitted to Xiao Ting, and Xiao Ting will be nonsensical from time to time. Tao Ye stuffed two large slices of sauced beef into his mouth, and his mouth was full of meat, and his cheeks were bulging, like the mouth of a squirrel with a lot of nuts hidden.

"Hey, I haven't asked you yet, why did you suddenly run back, didn't you say that you weren't going to come back, and you want to break up with me."

"I was driven back, my parents talked to me, let me hurry up and review, don't be affected by the family, my dad also said that this year should be a practice of hands, warm up and familiarize, and next year I will take the test well."

"Do you really want to take the test?"

Xiaoting was a little confused by Tao Ye's question, "Yes, otherwise why am I staying in Beijing?" ”

Tao Ye pretended to look at Xiao Ting with bad intentions and smiled evilly, "Huh? ”

Xiaoting hurriedly explained, "No, I didn't mean that, I mean that there is no reason to tell them to stay in Beijing." ”

"Then you have to take the test well, you can shoulder the hope of the whole village."

"Are you unwilling to let me take the test, I feel like you've been sneering all the time."

"Nope." Tao Ye denied it extremely insincerely.

"Come on, I've always felt this way, can you tell me the truth."

"Then I'll really say it."

"Say it quickly." Xiaoting urged.

Tao Ye drank another glass of wine, "I think your parents are trying to push you into the fire pit." ”

Xiaoting was even more stunned by Tao Ye's words, "Ah, what do you mean, is it so serious?" ”

"It's too difficult for actors to become famous, the elimination rate is particularly high, and many people who learn acting have changed careers later. Was this your parents' idea, or was it really your own ideal? ”

"No, they mainly look at what I like, and they have this specialty, and respect my choice." Xiaoting didn't say it reasonably enough.

"The goal is not firm enough! You have to think for yourself whether you really have this ideal, and you can't just like hobbies. I forgot which painter said, engaging in art is like watering flowers with boiling water, if you can't water it to death, it is possible to succeed, and if you don't go crazy, you can't live. ”

"I haven't thought about it so much, let's talk about it if I can be admitted first, my parents mean that I have to go to a bachelor's degree, I used to be a higher vocational school, and I am considered a junior college."

"It's reasonable to think like this, you are young, it should be the time to go to school, you come out to work too early, you are mixed in society at your age, it's too dangerous!"

"Yes, yes, that's what my parents said. Hey, how can you always be close to my parents? Xiaoting laughed happily.

"When you're old, we have a generation gap, and there will be a ditch in three years, count, how many are there between the two of us?"

"You are not old, you are not old, you are old-hearted, and the old cow eats tender grass."

Xiao Ting leaned back with a smile, Tao Ye looked at Xiao Ting's innocent appearance, pretended to pull down his face, and reminded Xiao Ting seriously.

"Be serious, don't forget that you're in the period of filial piety."

"Yes, you've taken it all down."

Xiao Ting stuck out her tongue, quickly stopped laughing, and forced herself to be solemn.

"You have analyzed me so thoroughly, what about yourself, do you like hobbies, or do you want ideals?"

"I'm just doing it for fun and enjoying it, but it's another thing to do photography, especially cinematography."

"I don't understand what you're trying to say."

"Let's talk about you, you like to dance, you also have this specialty, and you may also like to perform by the way, this is not the same thing as being an actor, the former is a hobby, the latter is a profession, this line is not easy to do."

Tao Ye wanted to divert the topic away from himself and dig deeper into Xiao Ting's problem again, but Xiao Ting grabbed him and didn't let go.

"Don't interrupt, it's about you now. I ask you, if you don't think it's easy to do, why do you do it, and I think you're doing it quite well. ”

"I followed the crew purely to be able to travel for free, and the crew took care of food and housing and paid wages, what a good thing."

As soon as he mentioned himself, Tao Ye wanted to make a perfunctory thing and make a big thing small.

"Actually, sometimes I don't like the atmosphere of the crew at all, and I even feel very annoyed, I feel like the sky is going to fall on me, especially the director, and those little stars. Of course, Wen Hao is not like this now, but there is already this trend. ”

Xiaoting looked at Tao Ye in puzzlement, "Is the crew really like you said?" ”

"Don't be influenced by me, I don't have the right outlook, and the whole thing is angry."

Tao Ye was a little aggressive, and he realized it himself, so he hurriedly went back to make up for it.

"Are you insincere, or do you do one line of resentment, to put it bluntly, it's hypocrisy."

Xiao Ting began to be able to keep up with Tao Ye's rhythm in her thoughts, and she was already able to carry out local counterattacks.

"I'm the kind of person who is hypocritical! I wanted to sell the house, buy a very awesome Harley, and wander around the world, where to go, have you watched "Easy Rider"? ”

Xiaoting shook her head, "No! ”

"An American movie, I'll find you."

Tao Ye stood up impulsively and rummaged through the shelves where the DVD was placed, and Xiaoting watched it with him.

Xiaoting suddenly asked, "Are you really going to sell the house?" ”

"Well, I've been hanging with the agent for several months, and a group of people came to see the house yesterday, and they wanted to transfer the property immediately, and I drove them away."

"Why?"

"Where do you live after the house is sold? When you are admitted, let's move to a school, maybe the house price can go up a little more. ”

Xiaoting looked at Tao Ye gratefully, "Why are you so good." ”

"Who let me eat your dumplings and hairtail, the key is that I'm afraid of your grandma."

"Are you serious, how can it taste bad when it comes out of your mouth."

Tao Ye finally found the disc of "Easy Knight", pulled it out and handed it to Xiaoting.

"That's it."

Xiaoting took the DVD and watched it, and the cover showed two foreigners riding on a Harley locomotive.

"You have to watch more films, and think about how those awesome actors act, the film school has a special film pulling class."

Xiaoting asked puzzledly: "What does it mean to pull the tab?" ”

"It's just a movie that you watch back and forth repeatedly, learn other people's skills, and I'll find out all the award-winning films at the film festival for you when I go back."

Xiaoting said excitedly: "Okay, good! You're supporting me to take the exam again? ”

Tao Ye was stopped by Xiao Ting's question, and his contradictory statement could not be justified. He walked back and sat down, filled his mouth with another dumpling, and Xiaoting sat back next to him.

"Did I object to it?"

"Didn't you say my parents pushed me into the fire pit?"

"Didn't I pour boiling water on you, and see if I could water the flower of your dreams to death."

"I see, you actually hate and love this business, love and hate entanglement."

Tao Ye didn't expect Xiao Ting to point out his heart knot, looked at Xiao Ting in surprise, didn't pick up, and poured another glass of wine.

"Am I right, right to the point, isn't it?"

Tao Ye was thinking about how to answer Xiao Ting, Xiao Ting's mobile phone rang suddenly, Xiao Ting took the phone and looked at it, it was her mother calling, Xiao Ting made a gesture to tell Tao Ye not to speak, and then picked up the phone, but turned on the speakerphone.

"Hey, Mom, why did you call me again."

On the phone, Xiaoting's mother said, "Wait a minute, your dad has something to tell you." ”

Xiao Ting's father took the phone and said, "Tingting, I want to emphasize to you again about the principles of your participation in this year's art examination." ”

turned on the speakerphone, Tao Ye could hear it, Xiao Ting's father's wording and tone were deliberately made very formal and official, Xiao Ting stuck out her tongue at Tao Ye while listening, and made a grimace.

"Didn't you say it all at home?"

"I just want to tell you this, what I said before was a little ill-considered, and now I officially take it back."

"What do you mean, that means I don't have to take the test this year?"

"Of course not, it wasn't said that you should just try your hands this year, warm up, and get acquainted, this strategy is not right. Since you have to take the test, you must go all out, you can't leave yourself a way back, and you must have the confidence to win. And the accident of the art examination is relatively large, and there are many examples that show that the unintentional willow has become... Xiaoting's father said that the central idea was a little floating.

"Dad, do I want to prepare seriously?"

"If you want it, you must take it seriously, the art examination is like a war, and the brave wins when you meet on a narrow road."

Xiao Ting looked at Tao Ye helplessly, Tao Ye chewed meat in his mouth, drank wine, and smiled evilly, holding back his laughter.

When Xiaoting hung up the phone, Tao Ye said to Xiaoting: "It is estimated that your father also drank it, and his speech is a bit contradictory." ”

。。。

In the room of the resident director of the crew, Wen Hao was sitting at the table and was revising the script, racking his brains to add a few scenes to Kiki. There can't be too many scenes, and he has to satisfy the management, but he has no ideas, and he doesn't know how to write it when he looks at the script document on his laptop.

Wen Hao muttered to himself: "Oops, how can this thing be changed, it's really." ”

At this time, the mobile phone on the table rang, and a call came in, Wen Hao took a look, it was Xiaoyun, the producer of the management, called, and Wen Hao quickly picked up the phone.

"Hey, Xiaoyun."

On the phone, Xiaoyun politely asked, "Hello director, have you arrived in Luzhou?" ”

"It's here, I just arrived in the afternoon, and I'm in the group now."

"You've done a great job, Director."

"It should be, it should be."

"I want to ask, can you send me the latest script, Kiki hasn't seen the latest script yet, she wants to familiarize herself with the character in advance." Xiaoyun cut to the chase.

Although Xiaoyun spoke very politely, his tone still exuded a condescending momentum.

"I'm still changing the script, trying to get it as soon as possible, and I'll send it to you as soon as I change it."

"Thank you, Director."

"You're welcome!"

Wen Hao hung up the phone, looked at the computer screen helplessly, he suddenly remembered something, stood up, closed the computer, and walked out of the room.

In the co-ordinator's room, the shooting plan printed out on A4 paper is plastered all over the wall, the latest script is being printed in the printer, and the co-ordinator Zhou Jing is pagination binding. Wen Hao walked in and looked around the room.

"Yo, it's fast enough, it's all arranged"

"That's, it has to be." Zhou Jing spoke quickly and loudly.

Wen Hao saw that Zhou Jing was printing and binding the script, and hurriedly asked, "Have you started printing the script?" ”

"All departments are urging me! Director, this script is the final draft, so I'll send it to them, and hurry up and start preparing. ”

"The script still has to be adjusted a little, a new character has been added, an actress has been added, and the script is still being changed."

Wen Hao said slowly, hearing what the director said, Zhou Jing's face immediately showed helpless sadness.

"Ah, it's going to be revised again, and the big plan has to be redone again!"

"Don't be nervous, there aren't many plays, it's estimated that there will be only two or three small scenes."

Wen Hao hurriedly reassured Zhou Jing, Zhou Jing is a stubborn Shandong girl, if the director does not do it professionally, she will also speak against it.

"Do you want to add new scenes?"

"I haven't figured it out yet."

Zhou Jing was very experienced and reminded Wen Hao.

"It's best not to add new scenes, otherwise you have to find the scene again, and the art has to have one more scene, and it's been a few days since I left the machine, and I'm afraid that the art won't be able to hand over the scene by then."

Wen Hao listened to Zhou Jing's suggestion and nodded thoughtfully.

"Okay, I'm going to try to add it all to these existing scenes."

"Then I will send them the script and let all departments prepare according to this draft first."

Wen Hao hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, send it, hey, Qiqi, don't send it to her first, I'm still writing her play." ”

"I know, Sister Ning told me." Zhou Jing smiled understandingly, and his tone was intimate with the director and producer's confidant, "I sent the scripts of other actors to them by email." ”

"Amazing, really good work." Wen Hao praised from the bottom of his heart.

"It should be the director, work, this is what we do." Zhou Jing handed Wen Hao a printed big plan, "Then you wait for me, I'll match the big plan with you." ”

"Okay, you go, I'll take a look first."

Zhou Jing walked to the door, and just as Orange came in.

"Hey, the script is printed, give me a copy!"

"I was just about to send it to you, I see you're in a hurry." Zhou Jing handed Juzi two copies of the script.

"Don't worry, I have to go shopping for clothes tomorrow, and I have to buy clothes for special and group performances here. Yo, the director is here. Director, please confirm with Fan Lina again, and ask her to bring all the clothes she should bring according to the requirements of the script. ”

"Did you tell her?"

"Yes, but she seems to be a little reluctant and not very happy, you can confirm with her again."

Wen Hao agreed, Juzi and Zhou Jing left together, Wen Hao took out his mobile phone and dialed Fan Lina's number.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Pack your clothes, there's too much to bring." Fan Lina's tone was really angry, "You guys are too disagreeable, doesn't the costume team have a purchase fee, why do I have to bring all the costumes myself." ”

Fan Lina lives in an open room, with a large sofa in the middle of the living room, and there are three open large suitcases on the floor of the living room.

Wen Hao hurriedly explained: "It's not that the budget is small, Orange told me, it's not easy to buy clothes of your height, and besides, they just bought them for you, are you willing to wear them?" It's all a lot of stalls, and it doesn't work. You are playing a white rich and beautiful model, and the clothes can't be too low, otherwise it will be fake. ”

Fan Lina was sorting out her clothes with one hand and holding the phone with the other.

"Okay, okay, don't say it, anyway, I'll be willing to post it, right?"

Wen Hao laughed awkwardly on the phone.

"These clothes of mine are quite expensive, and some of them are limited editions, do you want to stain and damage the crew?"

"Don't worry, I'll let them be careful. Hey, the script was sent to you, did you get it? ”

"Received, printed out"

"You draw out all the places where you have your play with a highlighter, and go through it several times from beginning to end, and you can eat the character you played thoroughly. When I got to the group, I had to read the script when the actors got together.

"Got it."

"You were ordered a plane early the day after tomorrow, right?"

"Hmm...

"Then maybe you can meet Tao Ye."

"He's not on the train, he's already gone."

"He suddenly got off the bus halfway and went back, saying that he forgot to burn incense, who knows what happened to him."

Fan Lina hit the nail on the head and said: "You were blinded by him, he must have run home and accompanied the little beauty." ”

Fan Lina has rich emotional experience, and she can see through Tao Ye's cattiness at a glance. I don't know when, Fan Lina gave Xiaoting the nickname "Little Beauty".

"No, the little beautiful grandmother has passed away and returned to her hometown."

"That's not back, it's New Year's Day again, the two of them have a surprise."

Wen Hao suddenly realized: "I see, I was really deceived by this grandson!" By the way, do you have a lot of luggage? A couple of boxes. ”

Fan Lina glanced at the three large suitcases spread out on the ground, "Many, there are only three large suitcases, you have to find someone to pick up the plane." ”

"It's no problem to pick up the airport, then how do you get to the airport, let Tao Ye help you."

"Forget it, let him have a good "Valentine's Day", maybe people still want to play a farewell scene at the airport, I don't want to make trouble for others. ”

"Then how do you move it yourself, there are several large boxes!"

"Oh, don't worry about it, I'll find a friend to help deliver it."

Fan Lina looked at a large photo of herself hanging on the wall, which was an art photo taken by Tao Ye for her, she sighed softly and shook her head.
