Chapter 18 The Eternal Girl
"You're really good at this exercise. I was sweating and panting at first, but now I'm getting used to it. It's really comfortable."
The sun was shining brightly in the morning. Chen Qi and Liang Xiaosheng finished their secret discussion in the guest house room and went downstairs refreshed. Liang Xiaosheng was 11 years older than him, so there was no age barrier. He didn't have a wife, so he was idle.
, if you have nothing to do, run here.
"The most important thing is persistence. If you persist for a year and a half, you can relax your muscles and bones, cure diseases and strengthen your body."
Chen Qi smiled. He had been living here for a few days, working hard every day to revise the manuscript, and from time to time he would ask the teachers for advice, trying to act like a good boy who worked hard, was modest and cautious.
Since the Beijing Film Studio has many crews and many single young people, the cafeteria provides three meals a day, which is advantageous.
The two of them arrived at the canteen and queued up for food. Chen Qi ordered three taels of steamed buns and a bowl of fried liver. Liang Xiaosheng hesitated and only ordered a fried dough stick.
"Why do you eat so much?"
"I'm not too hungry today, so I can just take a bite."
"..."
Chen Qi looked at him, said nothing, and found a place to sit down. Liang Xiaosheng asked: "How did you go about revising the manuscript? Did you have any difficulties?"
"It's okay. My condition is getting better and better. The teachers are very patient. I'll go back and ask for advice later."
"Then you go find Director Jiang, Teacher Shi didn't come today."
"What's wrong with her?"
"He's not her son yet..."
Liang Xiaosheng paused. He seemed to feel that gossiping about others was not a good idea. How could Chen Qi let it go? He urged: "Who is behind the scenes and no one is gossiping about others? I will definitely keep it a secret."
"Teacher Shi has a son who is 22 years old and still has no job. The old couple is very worried."
"Is he also an educated youth?"
"That's right. He went to Changping to work as a pig farmer. I met him once. He was not impressive in appearance, timid, and spoke softly. After returning to the city, he wanted to take the exam, but he failed, so he took the exam for the drama troupe or something.
Yes, I didn’t pass the exam either.
The old couple asked for favors everywhere, and they went to do it again today."
"Her lover is Ge Cunzhuang, right? With the old man's connections, can he still find a job?"
"Human connections are the least valuable thing in Beijing Film Studio. I have seen this matter very clearly over the past few years. Anyone who can be named in the capital has a great background. Don't talk about them, just talk about you.
, how good your parents are at work, I can’t even envy them."
Liang Xiaosheng was quite emotional.
Ge Cunzhuang is well-known, but his qualifications in the literary and art circles are not enough. Take Chen Qiang, who is also from the Beijing Film Studio, for example. Chen Qiang is one of the "Top 22 Movie Stars" in New China selected by the state, and is the top figure.
Chen Peisi also went to join the queue back then. He was so hungry that he didn't look like anyone. He wanted to go back to the city. Chen Qiang lowered his face and asked Tian Hua. Tian Hua played Xi'er in "The White-Haired Girl" and Chen Qiang played Huang Shiren.
Tian Hua helped find Bayi Film Studio. Bayi Film Studio looked at Chen Peisi's information and said that we were short of actors who could play gangsters. If he was willing to come, let him come.
So, this guy, who only comes out once every few thousand years, was able to join the Bayi Factory.
Ge You's situation is similar. His own conditions are not good, his family background is not top-notch, and he is still an unemployed young man.
"Teacher Liang!"
While they were chatting, there was a sudden greeting. Liang Xiaosheng looked up and said, "Xiao Liu, why are you here? Is there something going on again?"
"No, I'm here to eat and drink. By the way, I'm also moving into a guest house today!"
A face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a very energetic face looked up to Chen Qi's side, with an apple-like blush on his face. At first glance, he showed that he had sufficient energy and blood, and his menstruation was normal. He smiled and said: "Who is this comrade?"
Liang Xiaosheng introduced quickly.
"Oh, you are Chen Qi! I heard that a 19-year-old talent came to the factory, and it turned out to be you."
"Hello, my name is Liu Xiaoqing!"
She reached out her hand, Chen Qi winked and shook her hand: "Hello, hello, I've heard of you for a long time!"
“Have you heard of the famous name for a long time?”
"I'm afraid there aren't many people who haven't seen your movie."
"Haha, you are really good at talking. I'm going to make some food first!"
She laughed loudly and dressed differently. She wore a pair of old leather shoes barefoot, and her heels seemed to be lifting as she walked. When she appeared in the cafeteria, she seemed to be the center of attention, attracting everyone's attention.
It's just that the look in his eyes was full of exploration, teasing, and fun.
Yes, this is the eternal girl, the one who is still acting as a girl at the age of 70, the legend among legends, Grandma Liu!
"She is so free and easy. She is different from others."
"I advise you to keep your distance from her!"
"Why?"
Liang Xiaosheng was a little confused, and whispered very cautiously: "She, um, has some problems with her style."
Yo!
Chen Qi's eyes lit up. If you say this, I won't feel sleepy anymore!
He urged Liang Xiaosheng to elaborate, but Liang Xiaosheng had some bottom line and did not disclose the details.
In fact, Chen Qi's impression of Liu Xiaoqing is very weak. She is just having an affair with Jiang Wen, evading taxes, and always likes to play a girl. But he also knows that this sister is the most ruthless female star in the country.
Zhang Ziyi is ruthless enough, right?
Compared with Liu Xiaoqing, they both pale into insignificance.
After living in the Beijing Film Studio for a few days and meeting many celebrities, big and small, Chen Qi became more and more accustomed to it. He was half full and pushed forward the two remaining buns: "I can't eat any more. If Teacher Liang doesn't
Disgusted, please help me solve it."
"No, no, I'm full too!"
Liang Xiaosheng waved his hand quickly.
"Just eat it, otherwise it will be wasted. It is not okay to waste food!"
"You said you can't finish two taels of steamed buns. I've seen you eat a kilogram in a meal as big as yours..."
Liang Xiaosheng no longer refused, stretched out his chopsticks, picked up one and stuffed it into his mouth.
Of course he wasn't full. How could he be full from just one fried dough stick?
But my family is in a difficult situation.
…………
Return to the guest house.
Chen Qi continued to pretend to revise the script and put glue on the script.
Many people in the Beijing Film Studio know him. Firstly, he is young, only 19 years old, and secondly, because of his love story. The combination of these two is amazing. Everyone is waiting to see what this script will turn into.
With a daily subsidy of two yuan, he had already spent ten yuan in vain and had no place to spend it.
He was well aware of Liang Xiaosheng's embarrassment and must have sent his salary home again. He wanted to help but was afraid of hurting others' self-esteem. Even if he talked about money directly, they might not accept it - it seemed that he would have to buy four taels of steamed buns in the future.
Liang Xiaosheng was the editor in charge of him, and he usually had nothing to do. He had dinner in the morning, and came over soon after, and the two of them played chess together.
It was raining when someone suddenly knocked on the door: "Is Xiao Chen here?"
"Liu Xiaoqing?"
Chen Qi was stunned, then went over and opened the door. Sure enough, it was her. He smiled and said, "Hey, Teacher Liang is here too. That's just right. Can I go in?"
"Oh, please come in!"
She came in openly, took a quick look, and sat down beside the bed in a familiar manner.
Liang Xiaosheng trembled and was so frightened that he didn't even dare to close the door. Not only did he not close it, he also deliberately left it open. Nowadays, when men and women chat in the same room, especially if they are alone, they have to leave the door open - it's like a green massage in later generations.
of.
Style is a big problem!
"I heard that you wrote a love story. I'm very curious. Can you tell me about it?"
"Do you want to appear?"
"Yes, as long as the script is good, I don't want to give up any opportunity." She didn't hide it at all.
"Then I'm afraid I have to say sorry..."
Chen Qi had neither a good impression nor a dislike for her, so he just said plainly, "The heroine is set to be a girl in her 20s who has just started to fall in love. She grew up in the United States, and your age and image are not suitable.
"
"It's such a pity, but I still want to hear your story, you..."
Before Liu Xiaoqing finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps in the corridor outside, accompanied by a man shouting: "Xiaoqing? Xiaoqing?"
(besides……)
