When the news came that the work had been selected, Tong Yue immediately called Jiang Lingxi.
"You can do it. There are hundreds of works, and only six people were selected. I'm really worried about you. I didn't expect that you were actually selected."
Jiang Lingxi had just finished shooting a scene. She took the tissue from Lu Zhengzheng and wiped her sweat while answering. After listening, she said, "Yeah."
Tong Yue: "..."
The reaction of my own artist was so bland, which made me look like a fool for closing my office door and laughing wildly for a minute after reading the news.
"You shouldn't have known that you would be selected early on, right?"
Jiang Lingxi put the sweat-wiped tissue into the trash can with precision, "Yesterday Mr. Shi accompanied Mr. Li to see the sent works, and then sent me a message. Although he didn't directly say whether I was selected, I read between the lines of his words. You can guess it too.”
If she was not selected, Mr. Shi's tone of chatting with her would not be so relaxed.
There will be no special reminder to her that a celebrity will appear on this show.
She knew then that they were inseparable.
"No wonder your reaction is so dull," Tong Yue felt comforted in her heart, but couldn't help but sigh, "This is the benefit of having someone inside!"
"Old Shi also revealed something to me. This issue of calligraphy and painting will feature a star directly parachuted into the air."
Jiang Lingxi's tone was still calm, but Tong Yue couldn't keep calm anymore. She stood up from the office chair and slapped her hand on the table, "Who? You know Mr. Shi and you signed up according to the program procedures. Who is so proud that he can land directly in the air? Wait, it can’t be Jing Huai, can it? He won’t be rejected by us, and where did he find the connection? "
"Not sure, but there's a good chance it's him."
Tong Yue frowned and took a deep breath to calm down, "It's really Jing Huai who is going to be airborne. I guess Li Yuwen and that kid are quite capable. I can understand why Li Yuwen suddenly said that to me two days ago."
"What words?"
Tong Yue sneered and said: "She told me it was a pity and that we didn't know what we were giving up. I was confused at the time and thought this person had lost his mind and gone crazy. I guess the two of them would have left at that time Through other connections, he dared to come to me and show his confidence."
As he spoke, his tone became more solemn: "I just don't know what kind of relationship they have, and they actually gave him an informal appointment before choosing the works."
This speed is not unpleasant, and such a fast speed means that the other party should have a great say in the program team.
Either someone within the program team who can call the shots, or a heavyweight guest.
"We rejected Jing Huai, and he will probably deliberately target you during the recording."
This is not an alarmist statement, but something that is likely to happen.
There are only so many shots and duration in a show. Some people have more shots, while others have less shots. If you mess with it during post-editing, your shots may be cut down to just a few.
If this thing really happened, it would be really thankless.
Jiang Lingxi was leaning on the rest chair, with a slightly tired and lazy look on her face. After listening to Tong Yue's worries and predictions, she just gave a slight hum to indicate that she was listening, and then replied casually: "That's up to him too. It’s something that can be targeted.”
Tong Yue: "...Okay, all I need is your self-confidence! However, you still have to be on guard against what you need to be careful about. It's always good to be careful. Be careful and sail the ship for thousands of years!"
"I see."
Tong Yue could hear the tiredness in Jiang Lingxi's voice, "I'll go with you when the program is being recorded. You can't just let Zheng Zheng follow you this time, otherwise I'm still worried. Okay, I'll hang up. You can take a break." .”
Jiang Lingxi held the phone that had ended the call and turned it around in her hand, then turned her head and met Xu Ling'an's baba's eyes, "What's going on?"
"Sister, can you take me with you? I will be your assistant just like Sister Zhengzheng."
Jiang Lingxi raised her hand and touched her head. If nothing else, she couldn't resist this look alone.
"Take it, take it!"
"Thank you, sister. In return, let me write some more math problems for my sister."
Jiang Lingxi: "..."
Really, what a heavy reward!
*
In a border town thousands of kilometers away from the imperial capital.
The girl washed her clothes by the river and returned home with a plastic bucket full of clothes.
Before she had time to hang up the clothes, a mobile phone with a cracked screen was handed to her by a shaky hand.
The boy with a shaved head showing a few old and new scars smiled at the girl, "Sister, look, text message!"
Su Yi wiped his hands and then took the phone, trying hard to identify the content of the text message through the cracks on the screen.
The young man said proudly at the side: "Sister, let me tell you, you are so good at painting, you will definitely be chosen, right?"
Su Yi had just read the content of the text message, but her expression was still calm, which was in sharp contrast to the boy who was happy for her. She handed the phone over and said calmly: "No!"
The joy on the young man's face suddenly froze, and his brows were furrowed with confusion on his face, "Why? Why didn't you go if you were chosen? What a great opportunity!"
Suyi hung her clothes on the rope unhurriedly. When she finally got impatient with the young man who was surrounding her and asking questions, she stopped and explained angrily: "You know the imperial capital is far away from us. How expensive is the long journey? A trip can wipe out all our savings! Besides, what will you do if I go? Do you think I will feel relieved if I leave you here and go to the Imperial Capital alone? Also, Who asked you to secretly take pictures of my paintings and sign up? Did you ask for my permission?"
The young man was dumbfounded by the direct question. He opened his mouth and couldn't answer a single question.
When Su Yi started hanging clothes again, he defended himself in a low voice: "I, I didn't think that much at all. And, I think sister, you are so good at painting, you will definitely be selected before signing up. of."
Su Yi just pretended not to hear, finished drying the clothes and went into the house to cook without stopping.
The young man was left standing there scratching his head, reading the text message over and over again with his cell phone, then suddenly raised his legs and ran out of the yard.
When Su Yi finished cooking and came out to call the boy into the house for dinner, he saw that the boy was nowhere to be seen in the empty yard.
When the young man appeared again, the sky was already filled with sunset.
Suyi stood in front of the simple wooden table propped up in the yard and put the final touch.
When I was cleaning up, I looked at the few paints left and the brush that was about to become bald, and pursed my lips hard.
These were left to her by the teacher who taught her how to draw. She has been using them sparingly, but she is about to run out of them.
When she's done with it, she'll seal it.
In this place, everyone just wants food, clothing, and health. No matter how good she paints, she can't get a penny back.
"Sucheng," Suyi caught a glimpse of the young man who had disappeared for a long time from the corner of his eye. Suyi suddenly became furious, "Where have you been sneaking away again? There has been some instability in the town recently. Are you trying to make me worry? die?"
"Sister," Sucheng huddled his head and stood obediently in front of his sister. He lowered his head and endured the training honestly, and admitted his mistake obediently. He noticed that his sister's anger was almost gone, and then he raised his head. His eyes were astonishingly bright. He took out two clean tickets with no wrinkles at all from his trouser pocket, "These are the tickets to the Imperial Capital. I asked Uncle Lin for help."
"Sister, I know you are worried about me, so I will go with you. You like painting so much, and after thinking about it, I still feel that I can't miss such a good opportunity. Sister, I still remember what Teacher Jian said, you should go and see more The vast sky.”
"Let's go take a look, okay?"
