Chapter 113: A Little Farewell to Slang
On New Year's Eve, Li Chen couldn't fall asleep early in the morning because of his mother's loud voice.
The reason was that I received a call from a courier.
The courier asked me my name.
Mother: Zhao Wenhui
Courier: Which one is Wen? Which one is Hui?
Old lady: What kind of culture? Culture without culture!
Li Chen was not sleepy at all!
You win, mom!
You succeeded in waking my ears, so is it not okay for me to stay awake?
My mother, who only has primary school education, seems to be afraid that others don’t know that she only has primary school education. I have never seen anyone introduce herself like this.
The old man was also amused.
Seeing her son getting up, the mother patiently nags him again: "Little boy, you promised to tell me which girl is your partner today."
Li Chen really admires me. These past few days, it's like he's reciting a spell to tighten the headband, doing it every day.
"Don't worry, I'll let you see the real person later!"
"A real person? A girl is coming to our house? Then I'll prepare a few more dishes!"
"No need. You can see the real person even if you don't come to my house." Li Chen replied and got up to wash up.
I finally realized that the bastard must be talking about QQ video.
Sure enough, when Liu Yifei's cute face waving and greeting me appeared on the computer screen.
The old lady glanced at her son as if she had expected it.
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Liu Yifei, yes, Li Chen's girlfriend," Miss Liu sat in front of the computer, sitting upright as if she was taking an exam.
"Hello, hello, I've seen your Story of a Noble Family."
"Really, Auntie? If you like it, I'll send you an original disc of The Golden Age."
"Okay, Li Chen doesn't bully you normally, does he? If he does, tell your auntie and she will take care of him for you!"
"That's enough, Mom. You should take a rest now!"
I bullied her? It's good enough that she didn't bully your son.
Liu Yifei covered her mouth and chuckled: "No, Auntie, Li Chen is very good to me."
"Okay, okay, I'll go out and not disturb you young people talking. Yifei, say goodbye to your mother on my behalf." The old lady said again before leaving Li Chen's bedroom.
"Why did you kick Auntie out? I haven't finished talking yet!"
"You'll have the chance to tell me about it in the future. When you meet, you and your daughter can talk slowly!" Li Chen said with a smile.
"Happy New Year, Sissi, tell Auntie about it for me, too."
"Give me the red envelope!" Miss Liu said with a smile, extending her hand.
After finishing the video call with Ms. Liu, Li Chen looked at the box office of "Lost in Thailand", which had already exceeded 100 million yuan.
With revenue exceeding 100 million in five days, Xu Zheng became completely famous.
Of course, it’s not just Xu Zheng who is popular. Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo also became famous.
Yesterday, both of them wished him a happy new year.
A report about Xiaoyanzi on the Internet is a bit eye-catching.
At the end of last month, Xiaoyanzi and Huang Xiaoming's cultural subject scores for the postgraduate entrance examination were said to have met the requirements.
Now I am waiting for the professional course examination next month.
It seems that Xiaoyanzi is aiming at Tian Zhuangzhuang.
This is so fucking disgusting. Should I use some tricks to ruin this matter?
Some media have already called Teacher Tian.
The reporter asked Teacher Tian directly whether he hoped and was willing for Xiaoyanzi to become his student.
Teacher Tian's answer was ambiguous: "She can not only learn directing, but also learn more knowledge."
This made Li Chen wonder if Teacher Tian also didn't want Xiaoyanzi to become his student.
If so, it's easy.
This year, Teacher Tian’s target for recruiting graduate students is 5. When many people heard that Xiaoyanzi was going to apply, they gave up.
Or give them a call and ask.
Before returning to Sanya, Li Chen had already gone to pay New Year's greetings to Tian Zhuangzhuang.
Tian Zhuangzhuang also told him about the targeted training, which the school was already considering.
"Teacher, I saw the reporter's interview. Are you unwilling to accept the swallow?"
"Well, that's right. How many of these people are here to study?"
"In that case, teacher, you can just find a reason to refuse. This swallow can do more than just fly."
Li Chen had a hidden meaning, and he believed that Tian Zhuangzhuang could understand his hidden meaning.
Of course Tian Zhuangzhuang understood that the world is full of tricks and had pushed the ball to him. If it were when he was young, he would have refused it outright.
Tian Zhuangzhuang pondered for a moment before saying, "You're right. Maybe I'm getting old and thinking too much, but I'm not as decisive as I was when I was young."
After hanging up the phone, Li Chen called Yang Siwei again to be double-insured.
Don't let Yang Siwei spread rumors, just interpret Tian Zhuangzhuang's response to the reporter normally.
Li Chen believed that Xiaoyanzi would definitely be able to see it.
People have to have dignity and trees have to have bark. If she still shamelessly comes up to me, let Teacher Tian reject her personally.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Li Chen asked Yang Siwei to announce the audition list for "Thieves Gate".
Liu Dehua, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Liu Jialing, Deng Chao, Nie Yuan, Wang Qianyuan and so on.
The audition list for the female lead includes Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Yang Mi.
At the same time, the Oscar nominations list was finally unveiled.
Li An's "Brokeback Mountain" led the way with eight nominations, while all other Chinese-language films were wiped out.
In fact, when the Golden Globe Awards were announced, everyone in the domestic circle knew the result.
It is quite regrettable that Zhang Ziyi lost to Charlize Theron by a narrow margin in the vote.
It is worth mentioning that Gong Li won the Best Supporting Actress Award at the American National Association Critics Association Awards for her outstanding performance in "Memoirs of a Geisha".
For this reason, there was once a high call for her to be nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Oscar.
As for "The Promise", it is no surprise that "If Love" was eliminated from the Best Foreign Language Film nomination.
At this point, the two directors Chen, who had made a lot of grand statements before heading off to the Oscars, have completely lost their energy.
Even Han Sanping was silent.
The reporters were unable to contact Chen Kaige and his wife for a while, and when they tried to contact Han Sanping, the call was directly transferred to the call center.
Only Jin Chengwu is still stubborn.
Not only does the Internet have memory, netizens also hold grudges.
At the beginning, "If Love" triggered exchanges of criticism between netizens from the mainland and Hong Kong.
Although Hong Kong netizens were defeated miserably at the time, it did not stop this wave of mainland netizens from continuing to rub salt into the wounds of "If Love".
"Don't you have enough confidence to win an Oscar? Don't you say The Promise is not good? After all, The Promise was nominated for a Golden Globe Award."
"Is 'If Love' good? The box office is less than 20 million, and it didn't win any Golden Globe or Oscar awards!"
"Even if I go to "Painted Skin", I won't lose so badly."
In the QQ group of Rongchen Pictures.
Yang Siwei: "Sister Xun, luckily you got the boss to sign you. Otherwise, if you lost the bet, the boss would not have said anything if he wanted you to film but didn't pay you. It was a close call!"
Tang Yan: "It's so hard to see the boss lose once, Sister Xun!"
Yang Mi: "Ah? When did it happen? What bet did Sister Xun make with the senior?"
Zhu Yawen: "I will never bet with Director Li. If I lose, I can't afford it! Even if I win, I don't dare to ask the boss for the money!"
Zhou Xun: "Xiaozhu is right. From now on, I will stop gambling under Director Li's command!" "Shooting of New Shanghai Bund will start on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Huang Xiaoming and Sun Li are full of confidence."
For some reason, Li Chen wanted to laugh when he saw the message.
The comparison between the picture of Huang Xiaoming and Sun Li holding umbrellas in the rain and Chow Yun-fat's version is simply a 10,000-point critical hit.
One of them was just playing the role of a domineering president. Feng Chengcheng was soaked like a drowned rat, but Huang Xiaoming was still trying to be cool.
The director is also a talent, and Sun Li is indeed dedicated!
Look at Chow Yun-fat’s version of Xu Wenqiang. The affection in his eyes is directly reflected in the subtle details of the way he holds the umbrella.
After the fifth day of the New Year, Li Chen returned to Beijing.
Miss Liu came to pick me up at the airport.
As the saying goes, a little separation is better than a new marriage.
As soon as they got home, they kissed each other passionately, from the door to the sofa, from the sofa to the stairs, and all the way upstairs.
The two of them seemed to be stuck together by glue.
As her clothes fell off piece by piece, Miss Liu's fair and well-proportioned body exuded an alluring luster.
Li Chen doesn't want to be gentle, he just wants to possess it with force!
"You, um, did you, miss me?" Miss Liu spoke softly, intermittently like a dream.
"miss you!"
"What, what do you think? Uh, huh."
Li Chen didn't waste any more words and used actions to explain what he thought.
The clouds cleared and the rain stopped. Miss Liu clung to Li Chen, enjoying the tranquility after the passion.
Li Chen held her buttocks with one hand and wrapped the other around her chest.
Miss Liu's beautiful hair rested against Li Chen's chin.
After a long while, Li Chen finally said, "Xixi?"
"Ok?"
“It seems like this place is a lot bigger.”
Miss Liu's face was flushed. She kicked Li Chen in the bed and pinched Li Chen's waist hard, causing Li Chen to gasp in pain.
She was not satisfied yet, and turned around again, shook off Li Chen's clutches, bit Li Chen's shoulder hard, and then hugged him tightly.
An hour later, Miss Liu went into the bathroom, covering her chest with her hands.
After washing up, the two went to meet Liu Xiaoli and have dinner together.
As soon as Liu Xiaoli saw her daughter's rosy face, she guessed what the two had just done.
A pair of eyes slashed across Li Chen's face like knives.
Miss Liu was laughing at the side, but Li Chen pretended not to see it and said with a smile, "Auntie, have a good year."
Mother Liu said in a long tone: "Okay!"
After the meal, when Li Chen left, Liu's mother pulled her daughter's ear.
"Be gentle, Mom, it hurts!" Liu Yifei shouted.
"I wonder if you are deaf? Nothing I say is effective anymore." Mother Liu said angrily.
She has told her daughter countless times that matters between men and women should not be unrestrained. What if she has a child at a young age?
After all, I have only known Li Chen for three years, and we are not together every day.
Wait a minute, take a look, and you will be able to recognize a person better.
But my daughter just plunged into it, just like I did when I was young.
Is this life?
"We have taken safety measures," Liu Yifei muttered.
However, under the stern gaze of Liu's mother, he swallowed the rest of his words.
Liu Yifei knew her mother's painstaking efforts and was afraid that she would follow in her footsteps.
But she really felt that Li Chen and her biological father were not the same kind of people.
And she felt that Li Chen loved her more than she loved him.
No matter what it is, as long as he likes it, he will not be reluctant to give it up.
Although Tang Yan and Yang Mi from Li Chen's company are not as pretty as himself, they are not ugly either.
She told herself that Li Chen had never been ambiguous with either of them, not even once.
If you don't hurry up, there are a lot of shameless women trying to get close to you.
Of course, this was what Siwei said to herself, but she felt that Siwei was right.
At the premiere of "Painted Skin", that Qiao Qiao gave her this feeling.
She didn't want to regret it, nor did she want to have regrets in the future. Since she liked him, she didn't want to hold back.
"The new version of Dream of the Red Chamber, which has an investment of 100 million yuan, will be fully launched in March, with casting all over Asia. It will be difficult for Chen Kaige to be the director."
Director Chen is really miserable. He has been in dire straits since the preview of "The Promise".
This record-breaking "Dream of Red Mansions" was invested with 100 million yuan, which set a precedent in the history of TV dramas.
All major brokerage companies in the circle have set their sights on "Dream of Red Mansions".
Everyone knows that if a TV series based on the four great classics is well made, the leading actors will be very popular!
Moreover, "Dream of Red Mansions" is a group drama, and the Twelve Beauties of Jinling have many roles.
The Q group is lively again
"Siwei, do Mimi, Xiao Tang, and Xun Ge have a copy of Dream of the Red Chamber? Actually, I can also try Jia Baoyu!"
"Get out of here, little pig! If you play Jia Baoyu, the director will make people poke your spine for the rest of your life!"
"I don't think I can play Lin Daiyu, but I can play Wang Xifeng."
"Thinking, what does the boss say?"
"Don't even think about it. I just asked my boss and we won't be involved in Dream of the Red Chamber. From what he said, this drama will most likely be a bad movie."
"No way? A hundred million investment! When the 1987 version was first made, it was also criticized by people, but time will give the answer. Who wouldn't say that the 1987 version is a classic when we watch it now?"
"I'm warning you, if anyone breaks the rules without permission, there will be no mercy. Our company is not Xinghui, so don't be like that Star Girl!"
Yang Siwei has given several artists a wind-up. Don’t think that just because you have a good relationship with the boss, you can forget who you are.
The Dream of Red Mansions touched the hearts of countless people, even Liu's mother was moved.
"Auntie, please save your energy. With someone like Sissi, do you want her to play Lin Daiyu or Xue Baochai?"
"Moreover, this kind of drama is very tiring and takes a long time to complete. Look at the heroines in the 1987 version of Dream of the Red Chamber. How many of them are doing well now?"
Mother Liu was stunned. She had not considered this.
Li Chen really admired Liu's mother's idea. She was so smart.
The Dream of Red Mansions even made Liu's mother forget her original intention of venturing into the big screen.
"What do you mean? I am like this, what kind of person I am? Why can't I act?" Miss Liu was unwilling.
Li Chen laughed and said, "Lin Daiyu looks like a delicate flower reflecting in the water, and she looks sick. Look at you, you are brandishing a sword like a female knight. It's okay for you to play the role of Yu Sanjie!"
In fact, there is another real reason, which is that Miss Liu has no acting skills at all now.
The crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" would not choose her, and even if they did, the role given to her would not be the protagonist.
Liu's mother was also amused by Li Chen: "Li Chen is right, Xixi can't play Lin Daiyu."
Seeing that Miss Liu was still angry, Li Chen consoled her kindly: "Okay, don't be angry."
"Classics are not so easy to film. You will understand later."
Miss Liu is very smart: "What do you mean?"
Li Chen smiled and said, "That's what I mean."
Thanks to all the book lovers for voting. I have read more than 300 copies in the past two days, which is really not easy.
