Perfect Life

Vol 4 Chapter 14: Who is it?

Announcement on this site

Liuping looked at his face in the mirror.

Young, after all, he is only twenty-seven years old. He has bright eyes, a short cut head, and a Chinese-style face. After shaving his beard, he looks a little more energetic. To be honest, he thinks that although he is not handsome, he is thrown into the crowd. It's definitely not the kind that obscures the crowd.

The so-called mediocre or eye-catching, a little kid may think that he only likes handsome, but a mature person knows that no matter who, no matter how old, when looking at people, the first thing to value is spirit.

Once a person has energy, men are handsome and women are beautiful.

He raised his hand and rubbed his chin, deliberately shaving in advance to the beard he shaved yesterday. Today, he has grown a short stubble, hard and a little prickly, and the image in the mirror is also clean. of wild energy.

That's it.

He took a deep breath, satisfied with his current image—for the first time in recent years, even going back to film school, he took his image so seriously.

Warm cotton shirt with the top button open.

Wearing white is too formal, which is the color of this home, coupled with the seemingly inconspicuous action of opening a button, it will easily give the person sitting opposite a relaxed, candid, and willing to feel close. .

He is a film director, and he is the most successful top-level film director in China at this age. He is usually too lazy to pay attention to his heart. Once he pays attention to it, he has to play with imagery and color, and he believes that he has almost no opponents.

Nodding to himself in the mirror, showing a smile, he turned to leave, but hesitated for a while, then turned back, thought about it, and untied the second button - well, it was much better.

What kind of **** is afraid of stalking her husband, what kind of stalker, the so-called tricks of chasing girls, he disdains it, so the method he adopts is to make friends first, and when he has accumulated enough goodwill, he will attack and win directly.

Although she is the absolute goddess in my heart, today is not comparable to the past. Although the goddess is still a goddess, she is no longer the young man who first entered the school.

Of course, tonight is just the first meal, it's too early to say anything else.

Let her take out the script first, and that is the first step.

After packing up, he answered the phone before going out, and the other party asked jokingly: "I heard that you are going on a date? Do you want to find a few people to play a robber or something for you, so that you can show off your skills and capture the heart of beauty?"6 Ping just replied calmly, "Go away!"

The appointment was at 6:00, 5:40, and we arrived at the restaurant at 6 level.

He was going to drive to pick up the person, but the other party refused with a smile, saying that he came directly by bicycle.

This made him awestruck.

The reason why the goddess is a goddess, and from the goddess of the year to the present, not only has not faded, but it has made him more addicted and unable to extricate himself, which is naturally reasonable.

Just this kind of insipid calm, let Lu Ping appreciate it.

Sitting down at the reserved seat and asking for a glass of water, he waited with a calm expression on his face, and he could hardly control the feeling of lightness in his heart - this was the moment he had been looking forward to ten years ago.

At about 5:50, he heard a familiar voice in his ears, and he immediately raised his head.

There was a smile on his face at first, but soon the smile faded.

Lu Lingxi had already seen him, waved at him, then turned to say something to the girl beside him, and the two quickly walked side by side with a smile on their faces.

Lu Ping knew her. In the past two years, she was considered a young actress with little fame, Qin Jingjing, who is also said to be from a film academy.

According to industry rumors, she seems to have had some disagreements with the company recently.

The two came over, the same smiles and the same delicious food.

Lu Lingxi asked with a smile, "Have you been waiting for a long time? Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Qin Jingjing, a 93-level acting student, and this is a 6-level, 90-level directing department."

The two shook hands, Qin Jingjing looked apologetic, "I'm really sorry, Brother 6, I didn't know that Sister Lu had an appointment with you for dinner, I thought it was Sister Lu who was talking about a boyfriend, so I insisted on having dinner with her, I also want to help her to check... won't disturb you?"

It should have been a very romantic dinner in the imagination, but a bad guest suddenly came, and whoever changed it would not be too happy, but Qin Jingjing said it beautifully, and also vaguely classified Lu Ping as Lu Lingxi's boyfriend. Even though Lu Ping was unhappy in his heart, he couldn't feel any resentment, and immediately said with a smile: "How come, sit!"

At this time, Lu Lingxi clicked on her, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just talking about things with Lu Ping!"

Lu Ping smiled and didn't care.

When he glanced over occasionally, Xianlu Lingxi only brought a small bag with him. Looking at the shape of the small bag, it seemed that there was no possibility of putting down a script, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

The three sat down opposite each other, the waiter came over, the three of them each ordered a meal, and Lu Ping deliberately asked for a bottle of wine.

While waiting for the meal, Qin Jingjing chatted with Lu Ping very politely and with a little admiration, and Lu Ping responded one by one.

Although she came out of the same school, and it was actually a few years later, Qin Jingjing had already entered the school when Liuping was in her senior year, but Liuping, who was in her senior year at that time, was already busy with her graduation movie. A new and beautiful school girl didn't pay much attention, so it was not until later that I gradually heard that there was an actress like Qin Jingjing. I knew that she had played Diaochan, she was very beautiful, and later I learned that she was born in a film school. The school girl, but that's all, there is almost no intersection between the two.

What's more, although it's only three years apart, the two people's current identities are already very different.

When Qin Jingjing first entered the school, Lu Ping had already made a film like "Old Town" that shocked the entire film school and was called a genius work. When the two films in recent years were released, it was not yet this year. By the age of 30, he has basically secured the top spot among the post-70s generation directors in China.

As for Qin Jingjing, uninformed audiences may think that she has been a small hit in the past two years. With the huge attention attracted by her role as Diao Chan in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", she has received several TV series in the past two years. Although it didn't become very popular, but the face is still brushing, in the eyes of ordinary people, this is also a great star.

But in fact, within the film and television industry, she is almost the lowest level of coffee! It is only slightly higher than a certain passerby A and a certain maid B who can be replaced by anyone at any time!

Whether at home or abroad, actors in TV dramas are naturally a lot lower than actors in movies, and actresses have always been in a lower position than actors at the same level. It's a little bit lower than the strength group of the same level, the strength group is a little lower than the box office coffee, and the box office coffee is a little lower than the movie star of the same level. Of course, standing at the pinnacle, there must be an invincible coffee with the bonus of the actor who can carry the box office alone!

To put it simply, whoever is indispensable and irreplaceable is more powerful!

In the same way, the division of coffee positions among directors is the box office on one side, and the trophies and word of mouth on the other, and the real big names are often both able to stand at the peak - the current 6 flats are of course still far from the peak. A lot, but I have to admit that among the new directors of the post-1970s generation in China, he is the most accurate to go directly to the path of Deyi Shuangxin. Jin Han, Wu He, etc., are too literary, and Wu Han and others are too commercial. Only he has 6 draws, and the word-of-mouth box office doubles.

And just as the relationship between singers and producers and songwriters is generally the same, even if they are of the same level, actors are naturally one level lower in front of the director!

If we talk about the current Liuping, although it is only a new director, after winning the Best Director Award at the Great Wall Award this year, even ordinary movie stars and box-office fans must be polite when facing him. So now Qin Jingjing, a budding TV actress, is basically still at the bottom of the food chain.

Liu Ping has reached the point where he can negotiate with the producers and film and television companies and ask for some small power, but Qin Jingjing has not even gotten a chance to make a movie, and is still at the risk of being asked by the company to accompany guests at any time. , at any time may be asked to ask the stage of unspoken rules.

Therefore, due to the huge disparity in each other's coffee positions, Qin Jingjing unconsciously looked up a little when facing Liu Ping, a senior brother who was only three years higher, and even spoke with honorifics unknowingly.

To a certain extent, for Lu Ping, Qin Jingjing's appearance was hardly pleasant, but it was barely considered a good backdrop.

He was reserved and modest, and Qin Jingjing admired him with three-point hope.

Simply perfect.

…………

The wine was opened, and the waiter poured a bottom for each of the three glasses, so the three of them drank the wine lightly and chatted casually. Of course, most of them were Qin Jingjing chatting with Luping.

When the meals they ordered came, the three stopped talking and ate quietly.

After waiting until the main meal was over and dessert came, the three of them raised their wine glasses again, and while clinking the glasses lightly, they began to chat again - this time, without waiting for a few words, Lu Ping put aside Qin Jingjing, Turning his attention to Lu Lingxi, he asked with a smile, "Senior sister, has the script been selected? Did you bring it?"

Lu Lingxi took a sip, smiled and shook his head, "Lu Ping, I think you don't want to worry about my book!" At this point, she waved her hand and said, "Don't talk to me, just listen to me! "

"I was very excited at first, but after a few days, I chose the generals among the lame, and I also chose a book to come out, but maybe I'm just that kind of style... I know your kindness, and I believe you can Helping me to invest is no problem, but I think about it... Hi, I also asked a friend to help me read the book. They clearly told me that if I want to invest, I will lose money, so I thought about it. , Forget it! I know that a film that will lose money, but also asks you to help me with investment, isn't that pitting you!"

Lu Ping opened his mouth to speak when he heard the words, but Lu Lingxi had already smiled and said: "Don't try to coax me with the words that you are not afraid of losing money when investing in literary films. What kind of temperament are those film and television companies and investors? Do I still know? I have suffered a loss here, and I must be thinking of making up for it from you! I can't do this kind of thing!"

Lu Ping was dumbfounded.

Between chatting and laughing, Lu Lingxi's few words blocked almost all his statements. If you go on, you will have to look at the poor - I just want you to take advantage of me, I am willing to invest in the film that you lost money, and then use my film to pay off the debt of love, because I want to get you. ! ——Although he knew that with Lu Lingxi's intelligence, she must have figured this out in the blink of an eye, but if you understand it, you and I both know it's okay, but you can't say it!

If they say this, they will be embarrassed for each other!

Lu Ping was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled casually, "That's right! Since Senior Sister Lu, you don't even have such confidence... Then stop it! But, please don't push me about writing a book for me! This face is always given, right?"

Lu Lingxi smiled when he heard the words, "I'm definitely willing to help, but I can only promise that I will work hard to write, but I still advise you, don't count on me, and find someone else to write for you as soon as possible, because I don't care about myself. So confident!"

Hearing this, Lu Ping smiled at first, and then frowned indistinctly.

Although, since the recent period of frequent contact, Lu Lingxi has always had such an attitude, not cold, but definitely not hot, but today, she still seems a little abnormal.

So, after laughing and flattering Lu Lingxi for a few words, he changed the subject lightly and came back at once, "Don't say anything else, I'm quite interested in the person you found to read the script for you. That person can make you believe that, he said that he will pay, and he will make you dare not even show it to me... Men and women, the teacher of our school? Do I know?"

Lu Lingxi smiled and stared, "Why, you still want to settle accounts with others? Did you lose a fortune?"

Hearing the words, Liu Ping raised his hands in surrender.

…………

After leaving the restaurant, Lu Lingxi pushed the bicycle and Qin Jingjing walked out side by side with her.

When she was far away, she turned around and saw Lu Ping standing at the door of the restaurant watching.

Ye Feng was a little cold. She shrank her shoulders subconsciously and said with a smile, "Sister Lu, the six directors seem to be really interested in you! Those eyes... tsk tsk..."

Lu Lingxi smiled and said nothing.

Qin Jingjing turned her head and looked back again.

I have to say that Lu Ping is young, but his performance since his debut in recent years has been too sturdy, especially the best director who won the Great Wall Award at the age of twenty-seven. The popularity and compliment of the movie have all risen in a straight line, and it has risen to a new level in an instant, so that Qin Jingjing, a low-level young actress who is still in the TV drama circle, can only look up - so young and promising, with box office and force. Grid's director is simply the most perfect man in the hearts of all actresses in the entertainment industry.

Turning back and looking at Lu Lingxi's profile, she couldn't help but ask again, "Sister, are you really not excited?"

Lu Lingxi smiled, then put away the smile and shook his head seriously.

Qin Jingjing raised her eyebrows, shrugged her shoulders, and looked helpless.

She can't reach it, but people don't like it, how can it be broken?

If there is a boyfriend like Lu Ping standing behind him, why would he be forced to accompany the wine by those Wang Ba Dan?

In this place in the entertainment industry, one's strength, popularity, and appeal are certainly the source of confidence, but a good support is enough to make people lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade!

After thinking about it, she couldn't help but ask: "Hey, sister, can you tell me why?"

Lu Lingxi finally turned to look at her and asked with a smile, "Why? I don't think it's appropriate!"

Qin Jingjing frowned, "But I think... Yes, I also know that Senior Brother 6 took a concubine the year before, and many people envy her. Although she is a concubine, she was later on the big screen, and the supporting role is also good. But... a man! What's so rare about this! Tell me, in our entertainment industry, if you like a girl, put her to bed, and then you are willing to marry him back, even if he is a concubine, something like this Men, they have enough conscience!"

Speaking of this, she said with a little sigh: "Think about it, everyone talks about boyfriends and girlfriends, and they leave them after they sleep, so what can you do? Sister, you haven't been in this circle, you don't know, this The circle is the circle where the absolute man dominates everything!"

"Don't look at all of them who are engaged in art. They say that art is above everything else, and the slogans are loud, but in fact, those old men are more conservative than the other. I have heard many people say After that, when he slept with you, what was there to hear about? After sleeping, when you were tired of sleeping, you became a piece of rags, and you ripped it up and threw it away...and as long as you took off your pants in front of a man, the back You are worthless immediately, and many old guys are not even interested in you anymore, thinking you are worthless shit..."

While she was talking, Lu Lingxi couldn't help turning her head to look at her. When she was finished speaking and was in a state of infinite emotion, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but said, "Okay, you have been acting for two years, and I haven't learned anything else. These are all messed up. You don't know much about things, do you?"

Qin Jingjing turned her head to look at her, smiled embarrassedly, put her hand on her arm, and said with a little coquettish intent, "Hey, I'm not trying to get rid of you! Senior Brother 6 is like this, it's not bad, people Now he is also a great director who has won the best director, and there is only a concubine in the house, and in the circle, he has never had a bad reputation... not bad!"

Lu Lingxi smiled and lowered his head.

Qin Jingjing didn't know if her persuasion had any effect. She just subconsciously analyzed it from her own point of view, thinking that Liu Ping is completely worthy of talent, ability, and future growth. Although Lu Lingxi is not too handsome, and he is also in the market, he is not exempt from the custom, and he also has a concubine, but as a man, this is not a disadvantage.

So after thinking about it, she couldn't help but said again: "Let's talk about it, let's not talk about it, there are examples close by, you, for example, Li Qian, your student, my junior brother, this is not, the two queens, and According to what I have heard, I have only been talking about it so far, but in fact Liao Liao and Zhou Hao have not obtained a certificate from him, this is still in the category of being able to get rid of it at any time! Let me see, it is not as good as Senior Brother 6!"

Lu Lingxi turned to look at her and blinked.

Seeing this, Qin Jingjing thought her statement was valid, so she couldn't help but hugged her arm even more tightly, and said, "Also, I think, over the years in our country, we have mainly been given some ideas from abroad. It has affected, although even in ancient times, girls did not like to be concubines, but now the law has stipulated that it is very dead, and it is to protect concubines! Therefore, if the opportunity is right, girls want to be full wives , of course there is no problem, but in the case that the right person is not so easy to find, if you meet the right one, it's not a big deal to be a concubine, it's nothing special!"

Speaking of which, she said earnestly: "As for the ideas passed down from abroad, I think that the statement that women should have their own careers is definitely correct, but to advocate complete equality between men and women, I think it is pure nonsense. In foreign countries, men and women are not equal! Thinking that concubines are not allowed, and that they are equal to divorce? All! Inequality exists in all aspects. I see..."

Lu Lingxi couldn't stand her Balabala anymore. Before she could continue to talk about it, she couldn't help but say, "Have you seen the 6-level movie?"

The topic suddenly came up, causing Qin Jingjing to be stunned for a moment, and then she said: "I have seen it! "Old Town" was seen at our school's graduation work exhibition. When I was a freshman, "Old Town" came out, and the whole movie came out. The academy was shocked. Among our group of students, many people worshipped Senior Brother 6 very much! The last two movies were also watched in the cinema, what's wrong?"

Lu Lingxi smiled and glanced at her, "I've seen it, and you still like him so much? I remember hearing about it. You worked hard and worked very hard during the years you were in college. You just thought about acting? How about aesthetics? Yes? Does his film have any in-depth thinking?"

When it comes to acting, Qin Jingjing doesn't dare to say how good she is now, but whether it is during school or after graduation, she has really worked hard, but when it comes to film aesthetics, film aesthetics Ah and so on, she was a little stunned in an instant - this thing has always been considered the most advanced knowledge in movies, to be honest, she doesn't understand very much.

So, she looked at Lu Lingxi and waited for her to explain to herself.

Lu Lingxi pushed the bicycle, she walked, and the two of them walked slowly together on the dimly lit road.

High heels rattling.

After a while, Lu Lingxi lowered his head and said slowly: "In this world, there are such people who are extremely smart, but the smarter they are, the more conceited they are, and in their hearts, they even dare to despise this world. Everything! Morals, ethics, laws, etc. These things, there is no right or wrong, so-called genius, their thinking is far from ordinary people, and they are walking on the edge of madness. The only difference is that some smart people can set their own for themselves. Get off the fence and restrain yourself. Even if you are already standing at the top of the world, you still have a dull heart! However, there are some smart people who will be impatient with any restraints and constraints, and they prefer to go crazy. Do everything! It's just that with their intelligence, they are often very good at covering up their madness through various methods and methods at the beginning! Only when they step from success to greater success will they gradually become more successful , A little bit out of control, I began to slowly expose the crazy side of my heart, and, the more successful, the more!"

Having said that, she stopped, turned her head, and looked at Qin Jingjing, who was already confused, with a smile, but said seriously: "And I don't like such crazy people, understand?"

Of course Qin Jingjing didn't understand, and she felt inexplicably tall!

While she was standing there in a daze, Lu Lingxi had already pushed the car and walked out again. She chased after a few steps, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister, you mean, Senior Brother 6 is that kind of crazy genius? You How did you get it?"

Lu Lingxi smiled, "When you were in school, the teacher must have taught you that film is an art of light and shadow, right?"

Qin Jingjing nodded dumbly.

So Lu Lingxi continued: "Liu Ping's film is full of talent, and it is the kind of talent that makes you feel very sharp! His settings and handling of light, shadow, characters, and contradictions in the film reveal an incomparable kind of talent everywhere. Sharp feeling...a genius, indeed a genius! But, a paranoid genius!"

Qin Jingjing blinked, and continued to seem to understand, and continued to feel inexplicably tall.

After hesitating for a long time, she couldn't help but ask: "Then...Sister, as far as you know these people, in our domestic entertainment circle, I mean the younger generation, there are those who are both talented and can make a fortune for themselves. Is that a fence?"

Hearing this, Lu Lingxi stopped again, thought about it, nodded with a smile, and said with absolute certainty, "Yes!"

Qin Jingjing's eyes lit up, "Who?"

After a pause, he said impatiently: "He's not famous now, can I go buy the dips?"

"Buy the bottoms?" Lu Lingxi smiled when she heard the words, but then she shook her head, "It's too late!"

"It's too late?" Qin Jingjing looked disappointed, but quickly asked: "Hey, who is it? Do I know? Even if it's impossible to buy the bottom, if he's not too early now, I'll take the initiative to send him over to be the head office of the concubine. right?"

Lu Lingxi turned to look at her in surprise, "You really don't mind being a concubine so much?"

Qin Jingjing shrugged, "Look at me now! I want to act in movies, but those movies never come to me! Even if it's such a small cost, no one comes to me! Besides, I thought I was in the TV circle. It's not bad, but now, the truth is revealed. Now I not only run a single gang, but also owe a lot of debt! Hey, let me tell you, sister, you don't know, really, I only realize now that I am in acting Circle, if there is someone behind you who can poke where you are, how cool it would be!"

Lu Lingxi pouted, "Maybe! I haven't experienced it before!" Then he continued to walk forward.

Qin Jingjing caught up, "Sister, tell me, who is it?"

Lu Lingxi shook his head again and again.

In the end, she was really entangled with her, so she had no choice but to say: "I said, what's the point? You have to rely on your own eyes to see, right?"

Qin Jingjing pouted slightly and asked, "Then tell me if I know each other, the head office?"

Lu Lingxi sighed, stopped, and said, "I know that Liu Yulong, the one who lent you a million, has been pestering you recently, right? Want to get rid of him?"

Qin Jingjing suddenly stopped, silent for a moment, and lowered her head.

Lu Lingxi sighed, clapped his palm on the handlebar of the bicycle, sighed, and said, "Well, I'll ask a friend to borrow it later, and help you pay back his money first. As for the bargain-hunting thing you said... Jing Jing, that's your whole life, don't be so utilitarian, okay?"

Qin Jingjing pursed her lips, looked up at Lu Lingxi, and nodded slowly.

But soon, she reacted, "You borrow money for me? Sister, that's 1.2 million! Who are you going to borrow it from? Senior Brother 6? But didn't you say you don't like him? Don't you? for me……"

"Oh, don't worry about how I borrow it from you! In short, I'll lend you the money!"

Having said that, she thought for a while, then turned her head to look at Qin Jingjing, and said, "By the way, you are a girl without the support of a film and television company behind you. It is indeed inconvenient, and you will be bullied. Inquire, choose a reliable company to hang up with?"

Qin Jingjing shook her head ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ like a frightened bird: "No!"

Lu Lingxi rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and said, "By the way, Li Qian's Minghu Culture, I think it's a bit of a show in film and television recently, and his "Legend of the New White Lady" is also a big hit. No, on his side... After all, you all came from the same school, and there is always someone who nods and nods. He is my student again, so you must be relieved, right? Look..."

Halfway through her words, Qin Jingjing's head was shaking like a rattle.

Facing Lu Lingxi's puzzled eyes, she said with a bit of disdain: "Li Qian's reputation... You know, we all went to shoot the Three Kingdoms at the beginning, but we were not in the same group at all, I was the Han and Wei group, he was Soochow The group, from joining the group to leaving, we haven't seen each other. That's all, the media can spread the scandal between me and him. If I join Minghu Culture, with his romantic reputation and romantic temperament, I will pay it back. have to!"

After a pause, she said again: "Besides, next time I either don't sign, and I want to sign, I must sign with the kind of company that allows me to make movies! So, I would rather wait for the price, and can't arbitrarily sign it. That's it!"

Lu Lingxi opened her mouth slightly in amazement. After a while, she shook her head dumbfoundedly, feeling that it would be meaningless to say more, so she couldn't help but sighed and said, "Okay, this is your business, Make up your own mind!"

…………

On the dim road, two beautiful shadows walk and chat.

The voice couldn't help but kept asking over and over again: "Sister, just reveal a little bit about who the person you are talking about is! Please, you are my sister!"

The answer to her was either silence or a wry smile.
