Reborn as a little director

Chapter 42 Power On

The next day, Xie Siqing came to the set early again.

This is his habit.

Today's play is a continuation of the previous one.

In the previous scene, the protagonist met the goddess in the company corridor, and the goddess smiled vaguely when she saw his "last-to-last" T-shirt.

Today, the protagonist walked into his office, and as soon as he sat down, the manager called him over again.

In the manager's room, after scolding the protagonist, the manager said to the protagonist: "You are a salesman, why can't you sell things?"

"..."

"A person's mouth," the manager pointed at his mouth, "has two functions, eating and talking."

"..."

"But yours has only one function. You can only eat, but you can't talk. Otherwise, why can't you be the only one who can't convince customers?"

"..."

"In my opinion," the manager said again, "You don't need to use your mouth. It's fine to eat every day, and it can be sealed normally."

As he spoke, he picked up the green watercolor pen that he usually writes on the whiteboard, pulled off the cap, and drew an "x" on the protagonist's mouth.

The camera turns from the manager's face to the protagonist's face, and the "x" on the mouth looks very funny.

"..." The protagonist trembled with anger, his hands trembling uncontrollably.

……

The day ends quickly.

In the evening, Zhong Yang was going to attend a charity dinner.

The organizer is a well-known senior director in the entertainment industry.

Today is his 80th birthday party, and he took this opportunity to hold a charity dinner, the purpose of which is to donate money to poor children suffering from various diseases.

Zhong Yang said earlier that today he will leave early.

Xie Siqing always thought that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Unexpectedly, before leaving yesterday, Zhong Yang suddenly said: "You will also go to the dinner party tomorrow."

"...why should I go?"

"I said I would bring a guest."

"Then why are you looking for me?" Xie Siqing was surprised, "The combination is very strange."

"Because..." Zhong Yang stared at Xie Siqing for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence, "Because you are close to me."

"..."

"You are closer to me, so I take you and go straight away. I hate waiting for others, and I hate making others wait for me."

"..."

"That's it." Zhong Yang said, "Don't forget to bring your clothes."

"I only have the clothes from the Micro Film Contest."

Zhong Yang recalled: "It looks a bit pricey, but deal with it."

"..."

Just like that, Xie Siqing could only follow Zhong Yang to the charity dinner.

Xie Siqing just took a casual glance at the signed version in the outfield, and saw the four big characters——Chi Wenyue.

This is...really...

Maybe it's because it's too familiar.

After all, in his previous life, he often watched carefully.

It seemed that at that time, he would firmly remember anything about Chi Wenyue in his heart.

Once, on a document signed by Chi Wenyue, Xie Siqing unconsciously signed the word "Xie Siqing" next to Chi Wenyue's name with a pencil, imagining that if the two could be together one day, registering Would the signature on the form be like this, and then I immediately felt that this kind of imagination was very embarrassing, and hurriedly erased it with an eraser.

Chi Wenyue...

Does his own death have anything to do with him?

Zhong Yang signed the signature plate, but Xie Siqing didn't, and went directly under the table to the infield.

After Zhong Yang signed, he turned around and didn't see Xie Siqing, so he stood where he was and looked around for a look.

The reporters had never seen Zhong Yang cooperate so much, and they were all very excited for a while, shouting non-stop: "Director Zhong, please look to the left!", "Director Zhong, look to the right!", "Look at the right side!" Look over here!"

Finally, Zhong Yang finally found Xie Siqing, and immediately turned around and walked towards the infield.

Leaving behind a bunch of reporters who haven't filmed enough.

Some reporters wanted to interview Zhong Yang for a few words, but he waved his hand to express that he didn't want to delay the people behind from taking the stage.

The dinner was a little later than scheduled.

First is the birthday celebration, the scene is lively.

Some people gave cakes, birthday peaches, and others gave special life-sized cardboard figures of the birthday star himself.

There are also representatives of fans coming in and presenting the gifts they brought.

The host made it very sensational, reviewing the life of the birthday star in detail, and there are various photos on the big screen.

Among them, it focuses on the love between him and his wife—they are classmates in junior high school and have always been together. The director did not find a job for a long time after graduation, but his wife always encouraged him and believed in him. Married to him against everyone's objections.

The director also said that the person he is most grateful to is his wife. When they got emotional, the two couldn't help wiping away their tears.

"We have been together for 65 years..." Xie Siqing felt a little emotional when he heard it, "When I reach this age, I don't know who will be around me, maybe I will still be alone."

"..."

"However," Xie Siqing smiled again, "Maybe in three or five years, I will meet him by chance, maybe on the street, and meet someone who will spend my whole life with me."

Zhong Yang's tone sounded unhappy: "I said, can't you stop thinking so far away? Can you think closer?"

"... Oh." Xie Siqing felt that Zhong Yang was getting weirder and weirder.

Afterwards, some singers went up to sing to celebrate, it was too noisy, and Xie Siqing stopped talking.

After the ceremony, the auction begins.

Shou Xing spoke again, hoping that everyone will pay attention to public welfare.

Then, the auctions are presented one by one.

They are all collected by the stars themselves, including some calligraphy and paintings, antiques, and many valuable things, such as some props in movies, and calligraphy and paintings written by the stars themselves, etc.

After each lot is put on the stage, the donor will go up and say a few words.

Zhong Yang didn't stand alone and make a high profile this time.

He donated an outfit worn by his supporting character in his first film, explaining that it had been sewn by a costumer who had been nominated for an Oscar.

The price of this thing is not low.

The last one to get that thing was Chi Wenyue.

"..."

Xie Siqing immediately understood that Chi Wenyue was showing his favor.

He still wants to be the distributor of Zhong Yang's movies.

I don't know why, I didn't think much of it in my previous life, but Chi Wenyue's move suddenly made Xie Siqing feel that although the two of them were competitors, at some level, he was completely defeated.

The entire auction lasted for more than two hours.

The final stage count figure stuck at 5500 million.

——A total of 5500 million donations were raised.

The director of Qingsheng said something more, similar to thanking everyone.

Originally, Xie Siqing thought he could go home.

Unexpectedly, after the dinner party, another large group of people came to say hello and take photos with Zhong Yang.

Moreover, one batch after another came.

Xie Siqing was waiting beside him, really bored.

Some of him couldn't understand why Zhong Yang was so popular because he was a mean-spirited man.

In his previous life, he was neither mean nor vicious, but such scenes rarely happened.

It wasn't until very late that Zhong Yang took Xie Siqing away.

"Are you hungry?" Zhong Yang asked.

"Ah."

Although it is said to be a dinner party, in fact, the birthday star only prepared longevity noodles and a few side dishes for everyone.

It is said that I hope everyone will focus on charity.

"He's too picky," Zhong Yang said.

"...That shouldn't be the reason." Xie Siqing replied.

"boarding."

"Ah."

Zhong Yang drove around for a while, stopped on the side of the road, and asked, "Is fast food okay?"

"……What?"

"I'm going to buy you something to eat."

Xie Siqing looked at the fast food restaurant on the street and said, "Oh, good."

After hearing this, Zhong Yang opened the car door and was about to go down.

"Hey," Xie Siqing quickly pulled him back, "What do you want to do? Of course I will buy it. You are a big director, do you want to be surrounded by people?"

"It's okay." Zhong Yang said, "Just pretend they don't exist."

"Let me go." Xie Siqing sighed.

"It's cold outside." Zhong Yang looked at Xie Siqing and said.

"It should be fine." Xie Siqing said, "I'd rather be cold than starve you to death by being surrounded by people."

Then, without waiting for Zhong Yang's answer, Xie Siqing opened the car door: "Then I'll go."

"..."

Xie Siqing bought a lot of things.

"Just eat in the car, it's okay." Seeing Xie Siqing coming back, Zhong Yang said something, put the car in gear, "I'll take you home."

"You don't want to eat. Are you hungry too?"

"I'll take you back first." Zhong Yang said, "It's so late, you should go to bed early."

"..." Xie Siqing took a bite of the hamburger, it was really delicious.

Afterwards, when he arrived downstairs at Xie Siqing's house, Zhong Yang turned off the car, and suddenly took out something, "By the way, this is for you."

Xie Siqing looked at the paper-like thing, "...what is this?"

"Pictures from my childhood."

"……what?"

"They didn't know where to get a photo of me when I was a child, and they wanted to put it up for auction. They came to ask my opinion, but I stopped them."

"..." Xie Siqing remembered that at the dinner table just now, it seemed that someone from the organizer came over and asked, "Is it really not possible? No one has ever seen it before. It will be very interesting. It can enliven the atmosphere and send a message." a separate press release."

"...This seems to be a sneak shot." Xie Siqing asked, "Who took the sneak shot for you?"

"How do I know?" Zhong Yang said, "There are so many people secretly taking pictures of me."

"..." Maybe someone who had a crush on Zhong Yang when he was a child and now works in a film and television company?

"What's wrong?" Zhong Yang asked.

"Is it okay for me to see it?" Xie Siqing looked at it, and the photo was taken very well, so he smiled, "You were so cute when you were young."

"...Of course." Zhong Yang squinted his eyes, as if it was very useful.

Xie Siqing added: "It looks very obedient and obedient. I can't imagine that it will become like this in the future."

How did he grow crooked?

"..."

"Here you are." Zhong Yang said, "Go back."

"What do I want it for?" Xie Siqing said, "Keep it for yourself."

"I cherish the photos that others secretly took of me?"

Xie Siqing thought about it, and it seemed really disgusting: "Then you just throw it away."

"It's also my photo, so it's not right to throw it in the trash can, right?"

"Okay, okay." Xie Siqing surrendered, "I'm your trash can."

"..." Zhong Yang asked again, "Where is your wallet? Put it in there."

"...I don't have a wallet."

"Ok?"

"I don't spend much money." Xie Siqing explained, "So I don't need it. A little money in my pocket is enough."

"..." Zhong Yang looked at Xie Siqing and said, "I'll give you one."

"Send me one?"

"Yes." Zhong Yang said, "As a reward for the fast food just now."

"Sent by your fans?" Xie Siqing said with a smile, "Too much to use?"

"...you say yes."

After Xie Siqing went home to wash up, he lay on the bed and looked at the photo of Zhong Yang when he was young.

It's really cute.

Xie Siqing looked at it for a while, couldn't help smiling, and put it in the drawer beside the bed.
