Chapter 93: Becoming an Ice Sculpture
Song Haowen knew that he had left a bad first impression on Zhong Lizi, and thought that he had won the favor of the lover of his dream in his previous life, and he was a little carried away with his excitement. When he was sent back to the sales department by He Hu and Zhao Meng, Zhu Hongyu and Na Renhua were there, and they were very surprised to see him drunk. After they learned the reason why he drank too much from He Hu and Zhao Meng, they couldn't help but scoff hatefully. Although they regarded him as a younger brother and didn't dare to expect love with him, they couldn't help but feel a strong sense of vinegar in their hearts when they saw him because he saw a beautiful star.
The two girls reluctantly helped Song Haowen to lie down on the kang, helped him take off his shoes, covered his belly with a quilt, and left him alone. The two didn't want to spend the night here anymore, so they went back to the school dormitory together.
Song Haowen's dreams are full of scenes of playing and laughing with Tian Yuxi, Tian Nana, Zhu Hongyu, Na Renhua and Zhong Lizi: for a while, he walked with Tian Yuxi on the streets of New York to watch the scenery, for a while he went to other places with Tian Nana to make money, for a while he went to the land of heaven with Zhu Hongyu to break off the marriage contract, for a while he walked on campus with Na Renhua and fought with a gang of hooligans, and for a while he was very embarrassed to shoot intimate scenes with Zhong Lizi......
It wasn't until Song Haowen was forced to wake up by urine that this beautiful dream ended. When he got up and went to the bathroom to relax, he found that he was the only one left in the house. He remembered that Miao Chong, He Hu and Zhao Meng had approached him at the banquet, and as for how to go home and how to get on the kang, he couldn't remember it at all.
At this time, Song Haowen couldn't help but regret a little, he felt ashamed for losing his temper in front of Zhong Lizi. But the matter has come to this, and it is too late to regret it, so I can't help but stand in the courtyard and sigh.
At this moment, the sky is not yet dawn, and Song Haowen has no sleep. He rinsed his head with cold water, then abandoned his worries and began to practice "Tai Chi". After dawn, Song Haowen ate a few pastries and a cup of hot tea, which was considered breakfast, and then went to school.
It is now approaching the end of the semester, and the examinations of various subjects have begun to be held one after another. For Song Haowen, these exams are just a piece of cake, and there is basically no need to review, and all of them have passed successfully.
Before the end of the semester, the counselor, Mr. Jin, came to the class for the last class meeting of the semester, and he said that many students in the class have spare time to learn, and there are two choices: one is to take more courses, earn enough credits, and strive to graduate early; The second is to apply for graduate school and obtain higher academic qualifications. At the meeting, he also focused on Song Haowen, saying that he has a solid foundation and is proficient in many foreign languages, and now that the country has opened the entrance threshold for graduate students, he can try to apply for graduate school.
Song Wen was also shocked when he heard that the school allowed college students to apply for graduate studies. In his previous life, he was a master student in computer science and technology from Aurora University and a Ph.D. in artificial intelligence from the University of Cambridge, Great Britain. Now, if you want to get a master's degree in computer science, you don't have to worry about it. After class, he immediately consulted Mr. Jin about applying for graduate school, and Mr. Jin was also happy to see that Song Haowen was interested in this, so he took him to the Academic Affairs Office to get the form and fill in the volunteer, and the major was computer science.
This year, the country will recruit master's students for the first time, the number of places is not about 10,000, and the computer major is still a cold discipline, BASIC programming language is still the main course, more importantly, there is a serious shortage of teachers in this area, until four or five years later, this major has gradually become popular. The early college graduates of this major all have a bright future.
In the past, the examination of graduate students was uniformly scheduled for December, but this year, the situation is special, and it is scheduled to be held in early April of the spring semester, which is only about three months away from now. However, these three months of review time are not needed at all for Song Haowen. From the beginning of the winter vacation, he will devote himself to the filming of the "Tai Chi" movie in accordance with the contract, not to mention the review and preparation for the exam, and even the normal classes, I am afraid it is difficult to guarantee.
During this year's winter vacation, Zhu Hongyu and Na Renhua did not plan to go home for the New Year, they listened to Song Haowen's suggestion and prepared to live in the courtyard of Taohua Hutong, accompanied by Mr. Wang and his wife, and came to the sales department to help during the day. Because Song Haowen was busy making movies, they were responsible for the maintenance of electrical appliances in the sales department. Qian Youlai continues to be responsible for the recycling of electrical appliances and the purchase of antiques; Wang Li continues to be responsible for the day-to-day management and sales of the sales department. Although the nature of the work of the four of them has not changed, their autonomy has increased and their responsibilities have increased.
The work in the music room was basically lost to Su Yan. Tian Nana's performance schedule around the Spring Festival was particularly tight, and she hardly had the time to perform in the small theater of the music room, and Song Haowen was taken to Wudang Mountain by the crew of "Tai Chi" to start filming. Fortunately, the music room has signed a group of singers such as Bing'er, who began to become popular in the mid-to-late 80s in their previous life and were named the so-called "king" and "queen", and their singing skills are first-class. With their joining, the quality of the performances of the small theater has not decreased, and the audience is still very fond of it, especially young couples, and it is an indispensable and important place for dating and strengthening the relationship between them.
Song Haowen went to Wudang Mountain on the first day after the winter vacation. Before leaving, he repeatedly told Zhu Hongyu, Na Renhua, Qian Youlai and Wang Li in the sales department, Su Yan and Tian Nana in the music room, mother and daughter, to pay attention to the confidentiality of his going out to make movies, otherwise if it was transmitted to the school, some people would use it to attack him. They all said that they would keep it a secret, and even the best friends would not reveal the news.
Director Wang Bolong, heroine Zhong Lizi and other crew members have arrived in Wudang Mountain in advance and started filming. Song Haowen was taken by Miss Tang Wen, the assistant of director Wang Bolong, from the capital to Jiangcheng by plane, and then rushed to Wudang Mountain by car.
At the foot of Wudang Mountain, at this time, there has just been a heavy snow in the mountain, the towering mountains are covered in silver, the jade trees are full of branches, the sea of clouds is surging, the red wall is blue tile, just like the mountains and rivers of ink, full of ancient meaning.
Because it was already evening, Song Haoyun and Tang Wen were temporarily arranged to stay in a hotel in a small town at the foot of the mountain, which was booked in advance by the crew. When they came, there were only a few left-behind personnel in charge of logistics in the crew, and the rest of the cast and crew lived in the palace guest rooms to facilitate filming work, the men lived in Yuxu Palace, and the women lived in Zixiao Palace, and the two palaces were not too far apart.
After breakfast the next day, under the leadership of a staff member of the crew, Song Haoyun and Tang Wen were taken to Yuxu Palace, where they met with the crew and met Director Wang Bolong, the heroine Zhong Lizi and a group of brothers such as Miao Chong, He Hu and Zhao Meng of the national team.
Song Haowen has not been in touch with Zhong Lizi since the last time he met at the cocktail party, and this meeting can't help but feel a little rusty. However, after all, Zhong Lizi has seen a lot of scenes and hid her emotions well, as soon as she saw the other party, she took the initiative to say hello with a smile, so that he avoided embarrassment.
Because it was the first electrocution since his rebirth, Song Haowen seemed very excited and very devoted to the performance, plus he had seen too many martial arts films in his previous life, especially the action shots about Zhang Sanfeng were watched more carefully, so he was no stranger to how to express the moves, strength, and beauty of Taijiquan.
Originally, director Wang Bolong was also worried that Song Haowen would not act and delay the filming process, what he never imagined was that all the shots about Song Haowen were the smoothest, and they could often pass through one or two times, but the shooting of the big star Zhong Lizi was not very smooth, as a southerner, she was very unsuitable for the icy and snowy climate, plus she could only dance, not martial arts, and her movements were often not standard enough.
On this day, Song Haowen saw that he didn't have his own shooting task, so he said hello to Tang Wen's assistant, and brought a male bodyguard from the crew to play around Wudang Mountain. Unconsciously, the two came to the back mountain canyon, which is usually inaccessible, and with the ice and snow, there is no one in sight. I saw that the canyon wall was standing, the snow was covered, the road was dangerous, the wind was cold, the bodyguard was born in the southern city, and he had worked in the port city for a long time, where had he seen such a bitter cold and dangerous place, he was scared to cramp his legs and feet, and he did not dare to go.
Song Haowen was fearless and wanted to go to the canyon to find out. He didn't listen to the bodyguards, left the bodyguards, and went in alone to explore. After walking for more than half an hour, he came to the bottom of a hundred-foot high waterfall, which had become an ice sculpture, and only a trickle of water flowed downwards on the white ice. Above the waterfall is a line of sky, with the occasional white cloud drifting by.
Song Haowen was about to take his eyes off the waterfall, when he suddenly found that there was an extremely hidden cave on the cliff face, about a hundred meters high from the bottom of the valley where he was standing, and ordinary people couldn't climb it at all. The half-human-high entrance to the cave is almost blocked by vines, and the outside of the vines is wrapped in thick ice, and from time to time white mist floats out from inside, making the cave entrance looming. On a summer day, when the vines are thick, the entrance to the cave will be completely covered, and it may be difficult to spot the entrance even if you don't look closely.
Song Haowen has practiced martial arts, has a deep foundation, and his physical fitness is different from ordinary people, and it is not difficult to climb and leap. With a sense of curiosity, he struggled to climb to the entrance of the cave, and found that it was still very large, full of fog, and his vision was blurred, so he did not dare to rush in, so he first found a dead wood with a thick wrist mouth nearby, as a protective weapon, in case snakes and beasts appeared in the cave, and then walked in cautiously.
After entering the cave, Song Haowen felt a lot warmer, and his vision slowly became clearer. He found that the area of the cave was thirty or forty square meters, and the walls of the cave were intertwined with canine teeth, and it was empty, not even a small mouse, and it did not look like a human being. He let down his guard a little, walked around the cave, and felt that he had found nothing, so he planned to go out, and as he went, he struck the stones on the wall of the cave with the stick in his hand at will, making a "knock" sound.
