Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 7: In the same class with Yang Mi

What should I do when I have money?
Of course it’s flowers, shopping, shopping!

Qi Hui packed up simply and left his cheap little apartment which consisted of a toilet, bathroom, kitchen, bedroom and living room.

Then we moved into a new apartment with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom.

Looking at the spacious and bright new place, Qi Hui nodded with satisfaction, and then started shopping.

Change your cell phone!

Watch, buy!

You have to buy a watch, as mobile phones are still feature phones nowadays.

It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Qi Hui was used to using smartphones in his previous life, and suddenly he felt a little uncomfortable with feature phones.

Might as well just use a watch.

In addition to mobile phones and watches, computers are also essential electronic products.

He has long been accustomed to having access to the Internet anytime and anywhere and being able to search for things.

But feature phones cannot meet his requirements, so a laptop is of course a must-have.

After tidying up the apartment, Qi Hui breathed a sigh of satisfaction, then turned on his computer, logged into Weibo, and registered an account.

The old-fashioned Weibo interface made him feel very busy and he finally managed to register.

However, unlike later, you don’t need a mobile phone number to register on Weibo now. You just need to fill in an account name and set a password.

The newly emerged Weibo did not attract much attention, and netizens gathered more on Tieba, blogs, and Tianya Forum.

As soon as I entered, I saw something that was being discussed heatedly.

Liu Dehua announced his relationship, Zhang Ziyi’s “ink-throwing incident” and so on.

Looking at these things that are full of the sense of the times, Qi Hui couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Of course, these things are discussed either on Tianya Forum or on Baidu Tieba.

Weibo and the like only became truly popular after entertainment stars joined.

After playing on the computer for a while, Qi Hui left the apartment and found a nearby gym to start exercising.

Although he has six abdominal muscles now, he is actually thin and has a frail figure.

Although better than Zhang Ruoyun, it is still not enough compared to Ling Xiaosu, the big man from the northwest.

The character of Hong Shixian has to wear suits frequently. Without some flesh to hold it up, the suits will look baggy.

It was pure luck that the white suit fit him so well. Qi Hui couldn't expect every suit provided by the crew to fit him well, right?

So, you still need to exercise and build some muscles.

In the following time, Qi Hui's life became very regular.

Get up early in the morning to run, and go to the gym to lift weights at noon.

In the evening, eat some beef steak or something to supplement protein.

At night, I stay in the apartment playing computer games and surfing the Internet.

By the way, I browse entertainment news, watch TV series on Tudou, and watch "Chinese Paladin 3" and so on.

Qi Hui was extremely satisfied and felt like he was back in college.

Isn’t this much more comfortable than playing with dust?
He doesn't visit prostitutes, gamble, or go to bars, and has no bad habits. 10 yuan is enough for him to live for a long time.

After a week of such happy days, he felt a little bored and called Zhang Ruoyun.

"Hello? Senior brother?" Zhang Ruoyun was a little surprised: "How come you suddenly have time to call me?"

Shouldn't you be playing the leading male role seriously?

"The crew is still preparing." Qi Hui said: "I plan to visit your place, do you have time?"

"Of course!" Zhang Ruoyun's voice was a little more excited. He had wanted to let his senior brother and his father meet for a long time.

……

Hengdian Film and Television Base, filming location for the "Snow Leopard" crew
The indoor scenes have been shot for a few days, and now it’s time to shoot the action scenes and the big scenes.

The initial action scenes mainly focused on the male lead Wen Zhang, and had nothing to do with Zhang Ruoyun, so Xiao Zhang is very free now.

Qi Hui came to the door of the crew, but the security guard stopped him with an expressionless face.

No entry without permission.

There was no choice, Qi Hui could only wait for Xiao Zhang to pick him up.

About ten minutes later, Xiao Zhang came out and glared at the security guard with some dissatisfaction.

He called to talk about the matter, but the security guard didn't give him any face. Faced with Xiao Zhang's dissatisfaction, the security guard turned a blind eye. Producer Zhang is Producer Zhang, and Zhang Ruoyun is Zhang Ruoyun. Although the two are father and son, they cannot be confused.

"It's all work, don't take it too seriously." Qi Hui stopped the angry Zhang Ruoyun.

Zhang Ruoyun was still a little indignant, but she didn't care anymore.

"Senior brother, how come you have time to visit the set?" Zhang Ruoyun asked.

"You won't be joining the team until three months later, there's no rush." ​​Qi Hui waved his hand and handed him a pack of cigarettes.

"Three months? That long?" Zhang Ruoyun took Qi Hui's cigarette and opened it, but her attention was focused on Qi Hui's words:

"Why is it three months?"

He asked his father for the role in order to help his senior brother.

They only help in emergencies but not in poverty. This crew should start filming soon.

In other words, if Qi Hui didn't get the leading male role, he would probably have gone hungry.

Can't even afford food.

"It's normal for the crew to prepare." Qi Hui didn't care and took out a lighter to light a cigarette.

"No." Zhang Ruoyun took the lighter from Qi Hui and told him the whole story.

I heard that the role was given to Zhang Ruoyun by her father Zhang Jian, and I heard Zhang Ruoyun’s doubts about the time.

Qi Hui shook the ash in his hand, was silent for a moment, and then smiled:

"Maybe Uncle Zhang made a mistake, don't worry about it."

"If it weren't for Uncle Zhang, I wouldn't have joined that crew, right?"

Although he said this, Qi Hui's eyes narrowed slightly. It seems that Lao Zhang doesn't like me, Qi.

Qi Hui thought of some news from his previous life. Old Zhang signed some agreements in the name of Zhang Ruoyun, and then something went wrong, leaving Zhang Ruoyun with hundreds of millions in debt.

Xiao Zhang was so angry that he wanted to take Lao Zhang to court, and the matter caused a big uproar.

It can be seen that Lao Zhang is not an easy person to deal with.

Of course, that's a matter for the future.

Judging by actions rather than heart, no one is perfect. No matter what, Lao Zhang helped Qi Hui.

Qi Hui would not treat those who helped him as bastards and villains based on his subjective conjecture.

"That's true." Zhang Ruoyun smiled when he heard this, not noticing Qi Hui's change of mind.

He immediately said, "Come on, I'll take you to meet my dad and help you find a role or something."

There are still three months left, enough time to shoot.

"Don't." Qi Hui quickly stopped him: "I came to visit you to express my gratitude, please don't do anything rash."

The two of them walked and talked as they headed towards the crew.

Soon, Zhang Ruoyun brought Qi Hui to a middle-aged man.

He has a crew cut, a square face, and is serious.

"Dad, this is my senior brother." Zhang Ruoyun introduced excitedly, "He got the leading male role right after his debut. Isn't that amazing?"

He has lived with his grandparents since he was a child and longs for the love of his father and mother.

He wanted to prove himself through his excellence and wanted to establish a close relationship with his father that was like a loving father and a filial son.

Making good friends is also a way to prove yourself.

"Hello, Uncle Zhang." Qi Hui greeted.

"Well, hello." Zhang Jian looked up and continued to look at the documents.

He is the producer of "Snow Leopard" and has a lot of things to deal with every day.

He's just the leading actor, not an international film star, so he shouldn't be looked at any differently.

"I heard from Ruoyun that you were the one who introduced the crew of The Temptation to Go Home." Qi Hui didn't care about his somewhat cold attitude and continued to smile:

"Thank you very much for your help. This is just a small token of my appreciation. I hope you don't mind."

As he spoke, Qi Hui placed a soft Zhonghua cigarette in front of him.

Zhang Jian's expression eased slightly, and he raised his head and said, "I've heard Ruoyun talk about you. You have excellent grades and are a very outstanding person."

"You're in the same class as Yang Mi, right?"
