"So coincidentally?"

After the eyes of the two met, Zheng Xiujing brushed her hair and took the initiative to speak, her tone sounded calm, but it seemed that something else was brewing when she listened.

And Chi Jingyuan, who raised his head, although his expression was not abnormal when he saw her, he also froze slightly, and he suddenly felt some emotion in his heart.

Wow, it feels like we haven't seen each other in a while.

Since last year, when Zheng Xiuyan withdrew from Girls' Generation and SM, because Ji Jingyuan did not intervene in Zheng Xiuyan's matter, even if the two talked seriously once, it was not alleviated, and there was still some estrangement in the middle, since then, Zheng Xiujing doesn't know whether she is angry, or if she looks away or something, anyway, she hasn't contacted him again in the next time.

And Chi Jingyuan was actually a little awkward in his heart, so he didn't say anything, and he wasn't the kind of person who took the initiative.

I am so busy at work every day, I am in contact with so many people and things, and after a period of no contact, I feel that I am slowly surging a lot, and then everything is very calm and everything returns to normal, although Ji Jingyuan did ask Park Jae-hyun to arrange for someone to take care of Zheng Xiujing in some aspects in the company, but he really never took the initiative to contact him again.

Even if you are in the same company, you will accidentally bump into each other, but there is something special in the few chance encounters, that is, you look at each other calmly, say hello and pass by.

I don't know what Zheng Xiujing thinks, but for Chi Jingyuan, this kind of thing is actually quite normal, the purpose of the origin of the story itself is not very simple, plus there is not enough emotional precipitation, after the passion retreats, the feeling slowly disappears, and finally slowly returns to the widow, this kind of thing and experience he has encountered many times.

The same is true of many stories of men and women in the entertainment industry.

But today, Zheng Xiujing took the initiative to come over to say hello, and when she came, Chi Jingyuan knew at a glance that she must have been observing for a while, although he didn't know what her intentions were, but he didn't think too much about it, but seeing the 'old friend' still made his mood better.

After saying hello, Zheng Xiujing didn't seem to know what to say, obviously she took the initiative to come over, but at this time, she was standing next to her and was a little stuck, and an embarrassing and tangled atmosphere began to slowly form around the two.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan laughed, and the sunny face didn't have the slightly rusty feeling of the other party at all, looking at Zheng Xiujing's nose bridge and eyebrows, he waved his hand casually: "What a coincidence, are you filming?" Sit. ”

“……”

The slightly stagnant atmosphere just now was dispelled at once, and Zheng Xiujing, who was a little stiff after saying hello, also let it go, and after seeing Chi Jingyuan's smiling eyes, she also chuckled, lifted her skirt and sat down politely.

This boy really feels so good......

"Why do you call me Krystal?" She looked at it with a smile in her eyes, but it was a little rusty in her mood and expression, but she seemed to be trying to find some of the previous feelings.

"In public, so many people around are of course called stage names, right, Xiujing." Chi Jingyuan replied with a smile, and then looked down very naturally, looked at the other party's calves and asked casually: "Why do you wear high heels with such high soles?" It's more than a dozen centimeters, aren't you tired of wearing it? ”

"SM asked for it, and said that it was very promising to win the award today......

Speaking of this, she pursed her lips, not knowing whether she was disdainful or happy, but at the same time she glanced down and moved her toes with bright red nail polish.

There is not too much sentimentality and pain, after all, so much time has passed, and it has been eight or nine months since September and October last year.

Of course, it may also be buried in the heart, after all, it is a public social occasion now, and the words and expressions that need to be controlled.

The atmosphere gradually became relaxed after a few words from Chi Jingyuan, and the two chatted for a while like ordinary friends, as if two seniors in the same company were sitting together and talking and socializing very often.

It's just that compared to Chi Jingyuan's nature, Zheng Xiujing obviously still has some other ideas, after chatting for a few minutes, when the time is almost up, her eyes suddenly hesitated, and after two seconds of silence, she looked over, and asked tentatively: "Do you have time in the evening after the dinner of "Baekxiang" today...... Talk? ”

In fact, I had thought that she would say this before, but Chi Jingyuan didn't mean to refuse, and after thinking about his itinerary for a while, he nodded with a smile: "Okay...... A little later. ”

"Hmm."

…………

Because of today's awards ceremony, there is naturally no time for dinner, in order to make the beautiful and tight-fitting dresses look good, many female actors can even start dieting and plasticity long in advance, trying to make themselves more photogenic on today's important occasion of "Baeksang", which has a lot of exposure.

It's not just actresses, but also male actors, a few handsome people in various suits and leather shoes, some of them are a little older and have done very professional skin care, and many people have no flaws and wrinkles on their faces with the help of technology and makeup, which looks oily and shiny, and they are very conspicuous in front of the camera.

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but care too much about this because of his youth and physique, he hadn't eaten much since the morning, and when it was five or six o'clock in the evening, he was really hungry, so he asked the assistant to get some biscuits and pad them a little.

The red carpet of "Baeksang" also officially started on 6.20, and the artists who were arranged in the auditorium of this hotel went to the auditorium of Kyung University in the order of one by one, in the nanny car arranged by the organizer, and went to the auditorium of Kyung University to start the catwalk.

Every actor who gets off the nanny car and steps on the red carpet will be cheered and cheered by the audience, and the voices are naturally big and small according to the coffee position and popularity.

"Ahhh......h

When Chi Jingyuan's figure stepped down from the nanny car, a wave of feverish cheers broke out all around, and the screaming sound was obviously more than a notch higher than just now, so that the previous male artist who walked the red carpet and was still posing in front of the billboard for photos was startled, and forcibly resisted the desire to look back curiously, and accelerated and walked off the photo booth under the guidance of the staff.

At the same time, VN, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly rushed to the door of the car with the camera, and carefully filmed all the processes of Chi Jingyuan getting out of the car, and the signal was transmitted back to the rear in time for live broadcast.

Ji Jingyuan did not come alone, and he was in the same car as the two main actors of the "Unborn" crew, Li Xingmin and Kim Daming.

Among them, Jin Daming was nominated for the best male newcomer like him, although the chance of winning the award because of a crash is actually not high, but for Jin Daming, who has always had a bad road in drama, it is already a very lucky thing to be nominated.

As for Lee Sung-min, he was also nominated for 'Best Actor' with Ji Jingyuan, and both of them were nominated for Best Actor for a drama, which really caused a lot of discussion when the list came out last month.

But few people feel that there is anything wrong, after all, this is "Unborn", as long as the audience experienced that period last year, they will know how popular it is, and it can really affect the law in reality with a TV series, so that the government can revise the regulations in order to ensure the treatment of contract workers, and this influence is beyond the scope of the TV series.

According to the plan in the script, Wu Shangzhi, the section chief played by Li Xingming, should actually be the second male, but he relies on his strong acting skills and appeal, and also because of the setting of the characters and the role that does not lose to the protagonist, although he did not overpower Chi Jingyuan, he still forcibly raised himself to the position of the protagonist, and it has long been a good story that all the two protagonists of "Unborn" were nominated for "Emperor Shi".

After cooperating and getting along with the crew, in fact, Chi Jingyuan also admires this brother's acting strength and professional attitude, to be honest, it was really stressful when he partnered with him, and he was pressed if he didn't pay attention to it, thanks to him Chi Jingyuan, otherwise a young actor about twenty years old to be the actor is estimated to be able to be pressed by Li Xingming without any sense of existence, and the male protagonist will become a male partner.

Even Chi Jingyuan has stolen a lot of limelight, and it can only be said that this brother is indeed very powerful.

Compared with Jin Daming who bumped into himself in the best newcomer and basically had no possibility of winning the award, Ji Jingyuan also crashed into the 'Best Actor' among the two, and felt that Li Xingming's probability of winning the award was much higher than that of himself.

A senior born in 68, he debuted as a drama actor in 85, and he performed extremely well in "Unborn" and became a double protagonist, and it has not been very smooth before, he has no popularity and can only silently hone his acting skills.

and another born in 94, although his performance is also very good, he is very prominent among the young generation, and the Zhang Kelai he played also left a deep impression, but he only made a short three years of debut, and most of them were singing, and every play was very popular, which can be called smooth sailing, and more importantly, idol turned actor.

You are the judge, who do you choose?

So Ji Jingyuan actually didn't want to compete for this award, and being able to nominate it was already a great recognition for him.

Because of the extremely high ratings and popularity, and at the same time, it has far exceeded the influence of the TV series, so that the drama "Unborn" has received a lot of nominations, and almost every award nomination in the TV category has a trace of this drama, so this year's "Baeksang" is almost a reunion of the crew of "Unborn", and just now Ji Jingyuan has been chatting with director Kim Won-seok for a while.

Because of his excellent performance and dedicated attitude during filming, as well as the great success of "Unborn", director Kim Won-seok is very optimistic about Ji Kyung-won, and his personal relationship has been maintained after filming.

After the fire of "Unborn" and the successful end, Kim Won-seok has not had any action and news about the new drama, but just now at the hotel, he mentioned to Ji Jingyuan that he is planning to prepare a new drama, which is a suspenseful script, which is very good and is being improved.

and revealed to him that this drama is a multi-protagonist model, in which there is a young male protagonist, and he thinks that Chi Jingyuan's appearance, especially in terms of acting skills, is very suitable.

In the end, Jin Yuanxi also said quite seriously that if the crew is determined by then, I hope Ji Jingyuan can try it.

For the optimism and love of the directors who have worked with him, although he still has to prepare for a while, and he hasn't seen the script, of course Ji Jingyuan is full of promises, and of course he can't say anything like 'I want to ask the company's opinion' and 'I want to see the schedule at that time'.

Hearing Kim Won-seok say this, he actually became a little interested in this 'very good' script, and he has not acted in a suspense drama until now.

The red carpet was lackluster, and the audience was actually not very crowded, although they were all very enthusiastic and screaming, but Ji Jingyuan was already familiar with this kind of scene.

smiled and waved his hand, bowed gently to express his gratitude, and ended the red carpet session after accepting a few interviews with the live MC.

This year's "Baeksang Art Awards" also officially started at 8 o'clock in the evening at the Peace Hall of Kyung Hee University, with the appearance of three MCs, Shin Dong-yeol, Kim Ya-jung and Zhou Yuan.

】

The guest seats of this year's "Baeksang" are very interesting, the actors present did not sit in the audience seat in front of them, but directly placed ten round tables on the left side of the stage, and the actors sat directly on the stage to watch the MC and the actors' testimonial performances at a super close range.

Compared with some award ceremonies in the music industry that pay more attention to the size of the stage and lighting design, the award design in the film and television industry is simpler, but the actors and actresses in suits and leather shoes and dresses are not affected at all, and they still show gentle but self-contained smiles and expressions on their faces, which seem to indicate their level and status.

Chi Jingyuan sat at a round table slightly in front of him, and in addition to the crew of "Unborn", there were several young actors at the same table.

And a few familiar friends, Park Shin Hye and Jung so-jing, sat at the table behind him.

After the opening performance of a funny group and the opening words of the three MCs, the first award, the Newcomer Award in the TV department, was announced after last year's winners Jung Woo and Baek Jin-hee walked up to the stage holding hands, said some introductory words, and made a few small jokes.

At the same time, the big screen on the stage also began to show VCRs of the candidates playing roles.

"The new actor in the TV department will be a candidate for ......"

"Unborn, Jin Daming."

"It's okay to be in love", all of them are showy."

"Why should there be such a thing between families", Park Hyung-sik.

"Hearing the Rumors, Lee Joon."

"Unborn, Chi Jingyuan."

Seeing that there were two EXO members among the candidates, many Ellie who were watching the live broadcast couldn't help but show pride on their faces, and some fans of other families couldn't help but pout, with some envy in their hearts.

"Then now I'll announce ......" Zheng Yu took the teleprompter, cleared his throat and began to read: "The 51st, Baeksang Arts Awards TV Department Newcomer Actor Award ......"

After a slight pause, Bai Zhenxi, who had already discussed smoothly before, took the opportunity to answer: "Ji Jingyuan xi of "Unborn", rough Kamida ......"

"Ahhh......h

The camera was given to the artist's seat, Chi Jingyuan stood up from his seat, with a happy smile on his face, and several young actors who were sitting at the same table also stood up, clapping their hands with him with a very good relationship, and Li Xingming, the senior next to him, also stood up with a lot of face, and shook hands with Chi Jingyuan vigorously.

Chi Jingyuan smiled and thanked the seniors around him who congratulated him, and then walked forward, and when he passed by the table in front of him, he also specially rubbed the shoulder of Du Junxiu, who had been smiling and applauding, and made countless fans cheer in their hearts.

"As an acting idol who is gradually maturing, Ji Jingyuan played the role of Zhang Kelai, a social rookie who has entered the cruel reality in TVN's "Unborn", and realistically performed ......"

On his way to the stage, the narrator also began to introduce his achievements and roles from last year.

"Hello everyone, I'm Ikejingyuan from EXO."

When Chi Jingyuan and the award presenter shook hands with each other and saluted, took the trophy and stood in front of the microphone to make a speech and introduce themselves, the camera also took the opportunity to give a close-up of the close-up.

In the picture, he is dressed in a pure black slim suit, with a dark blue bow tie tied to a pure white striped shirt lined inside, his hair is lifted up to reveal his forehead, standing there tall and slender, his young face is radiant, and his formal clothes and restrained expression show a style and characteristics that are completely different from those on the usual stage.

"Actually, standing here makes me feel a little burden......" After the cheers, Ji Jingyuan pursed his lips, glanced at the trophy in his hand, and began to deliver his acceptance speech: "Everyone has also seen that the candidates this time are all very good seniors and friends, including the agent who filmed the TV series together, Jin Daming's seniors, as well as my members, Brother Junxiu, and finally my friends who want to get close, so there are still some burdens in this position so far." ”

There was a burst of laughter from the actor's seat next to "Hehe......", and the camera showed Du Junxiu, who applauded happily, and seemed to have no loss at all.

"Although it has been a long time, many scenes of the crew at that time are still very memorable, the filming of "Unborn" is really hard, and I have experienced a lot of things in order to become Zhang Kelai, especially some scenes with Li Xingming's predecessors, which is the biggest challenge for me, the pressure is really great, and I didn't sleep well during that time......"

"Huh." The director is also very interesting, Ji Jingyuan didn't say a name, he would cut a close-up of that person, and at this time, hearing Chi Jingyuan mention his name with admiration, Li Xing was obviously very happy, sitting there and laughing.

"......'Unborn' is a very good, even great work for me, it really means a lot, and I personally hope to meet some works like 'Unborn'."

"Thank you, friends, thank you, fans, all the people who support me, and finally, Zhang Kelai in this world will work hard together, Kang Sanmida."

Under the renewed cheers and applause of the actors, Ji Jingyuan saluted and walked off the stage and returned to his seat.

Testimonials He said a lot, Baeksang Newcomer Award is actually a very important award, and every actor only has one chance to get it in the year he was nominated in his career, and after losing it, he will say goodbye to this award completely.

In terms of gold content, it is actually quite heavy, at least in Chi Jingyuan's opinion, it is much more important than the popularity award.

The popularity award, Kwon Yoo-ri relied on the sparse ratings of "Fashion King" the year before last to get it, and what is even more ridiculous is that Lin Yuna's predecessors can still get the popularity award in a row when they made a fight in the past two years in the past 10 years, which is the most ironic place, which directly lowers the gold content of this award.

You can still win the award when the TV series you acted in is so lake, because the drama is so miserable that you are the only one in the entire crew who came to the award ceremony, isn't it really ironic?

But...... Yun'er seniors, awards don't matter, just be beautiful.

I don't know why I inexplicably thought of my young predecessors, Chi Jingyuan, who sat back in his seat, was distracted for a while, and then quickly cheered up before the camera filmed it, and watched the award ceremony that continued seriously.

…………

"Ernie is still watching Hundred Rewards?"

In the dormitory of Red Velvet, the members came back early today because they were not busy, and Jiang Shiqi, who had just finished taking a shower, returned to the room and saw Pei Zhuhyun sitting cross-legged on the bed holding a mobile phone and watching, she wiped her hair with a towel, and generally asked casually.

"Well, the first half is almost over, and it's the last prize." Although Bae Joo-hyun didn't look up, he nodded his head in response.

"How many awards has Jingyuan won?"

"There are only three nominations, and so far there has been a newcomer award, and he has already won it...... However, the popularity award will be awarded soon, so there should be no problem. ”

Bae Joo-hyun opened his mouth to reply without much thought, and it seemed that he was very fond of Ji Jingyuan's various nominations.

"Hey Yigu, how can someone be so good at idols and actors so well, it's so unfair......" Sun Shengwan, who was also sitting on the bed, didn't know what stimulation he was in, and after listening to it for a while, he suddenly fell down on all fours, with a face full of unfairness and lovelessness.

"Hee-hee-......" Jiang Shiqi was happy when she saw it, and sat on her bed with a buttocks, laughing and starting to make trouble.

It's just that at this time, Pei Zhuhyun didn't see Yiang, her attention had been attracted to the live broadcast of "Baeksang" on her mobile phone, and looking at it, her face began to feel a little bad.

"TV Department, Men's Popularity Award, Chi Jingyuan, Rough Kamida!"

"Women's Popularity Award, Zheng Xiujing, Rough Kamida!"

"Film Division......

She didn't pay much attention to the winners in the film department later, and at this time, Bae Joo-hyun's eyes were completely focused on Ji Kyung-won and Zheng Xiujing in the camera.

The two people on the stage each held trophies and flowers and stood side by side, one in a pure black suit and the other in a black cut-out dress.

Chi Jingyuan and Zheng Xiujing both had surging smiles on their faces, and they didn't know if it was because of the award or what, after Zheng Xiujing half-tilted her head and reached out to brush the hair on the left side of her face, she turned to the side, and Chi Jingyuan's eyes just met, the two glanced at each other, and laughed together.

The smile is shy and reserved, but it looks extremely natural, as if it does it often.

Seeing this scene, Bae Joo-hyun's fingers on the phone were a little harder, and her brows frowned inadvertently.

In the second half of the second half, she didn't know why she didn't have much to watch, except for paying attention to the attribution of the 'Best Actor', the whole person's thoughts were a little flustered, although staring at the phone, she was always a little distracted.

It was like this until the end of the entire "Baeksang Art Awards", especially when she took the initiative to send a congratulatory text message to Chi Jingyuan after the ceremony but did not get a reply, especially when the time was getting late.

Until the early hours of the morning, she lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and took out her mobile phone from time to time to look.

After going back and forth a few times, she finally couldn't help it, she grabbed the mobile phone that was specially placed next to the pillow, quickly clicked on the name, and sent a message again:

"Still busy?"
