Beijing International Airport, Terminal 2.
After Tong Guangyi checked his luggage, he found a place to sit down.
The voice call rang, it was her best friend who was on leave today: "Hello, how are you? Is Qin Jue handsome?"
Tong Guangyi, who was wearing headphones, smiled: "Handsome, handsome, the real person's temperament is even better than in the video."
"Wow, wouldn't that be great? But why does your voice sound so weak?" The best friend on the other end of the communication keenly noticed something was wrong.
She heard Tong Guangyi complain that Qin Jue's airport pick-up arrangements were different from other celebrities she had followed in the past, and she was worried that finding an extra place to hold a fan meeting was an upright private flirtation. But if Tong Guangyi was harassed, he wouldn't have just praised Qin Jue for his handsome appearance and good temperament. His best friend would be a little confused.
"Alas..." Tong Guangyi sighed slowly, his tone extremely vicissitudes of life.
"What's wrong? Let me guess, did you accidentally take an ugly photo? Or did Qin Jueyou get to you? Or something else happened where the house was half-collapsed?" My best friend speculated in turn, "Oh shit, could it be you? Found the secret sister-in-law?!"
Tong Guangyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What kind of secret sister-in-law? My sister-in-law directly played the obvious card. Fans have known for a long time that Qin Jue has a partner, and they are all enjoying CP."
"Huh?" The best friend was stunned, "Yes, Qin Jue seems to be an actor. It doesn't matter if he is single or not... Well, it feels bad to make his relationship public at such a young age. Doesn't he need a girlfriend to be a fan? And he's online. It’s also inconvenient to speculate on CP in dramas.”
"The Dragon Kingdom Best Actor who has been at the Venazzola International Film Festival for thirty years and is only twenty years old——" Tong Guangyi reminded in a long voice, "Do you have any misunderstandings about the achievements of my protagonist?"
"Hey, I got it, look at how protective you are." My best friend said with disdain, "Then what were you sighing about just now?"
Hearing this, Tong Guangyi sighed again: "Bao, I really want to run away now."
My best friend was helpless: "What's going on? It's you who praises Qin Jue and wants to run away. What's going on?"
Tong Guangyi's lips opened and closed repeatedly, his facial features wrinkled and then relaxed, and his whole person looked like "I'm numb.jpg":
"It sounds very complicated..."
She took a breath, sped up her speech, and briefly described the entire process of picking up the plane to her best friend.
"Wow." My best friend sighed, "I feel like I'm going to become a casual fan of Qin Jue. He has strength, good looks, and he's very good to his fans... Do you think he's too distant? Are you upset?"
Tong Guangyi understood that her best friend was referring to her having a seizure in the comment section and being seen by Qin Jue. She shook her head: "Half of it, the more important thing is actually -"
After a pause, Tong Guangyi said with a bitter look on his face: "Didn't I ask him on purpose? To be honest, he acted too sincerely. I thought I was a fan of a star who was too sincere and a bit heartless. I thought. It's okay to have a true temperament, but it's not like I've never pursued someone like this before, but in the end, his focus was actually on Ky."
She raised her forehead in frustration.
"Do you still remember the last time we went out to eat with Qianqian? Qianqian and Xiaowen had a falling out. We didn't know about it at the time. We mentioned it a few times while chatting, and Qianqian became unhappy and dismissed it. Chopsticks asked if she could not mention Xiao Wen, but she didn’t want to hear it.”
"Ah? Yes, I remember this." The best friend was confused, "What does this mean? We have been friends for several years. Didn't we agree at the beginning that if anyone is upset about something, he should just say it directly, so as not to hold it in his heart? The Cold War affects relationships. And we both paid attention to what Qianqian said, and we never mentioned Xiaowen in front of her again."
"Yeah -" Tong Guangyi sighed, "I'm telling you, when Qin Jue heard me mention Jing Xinghe and the silly crew, his reaction was similar to Qian Qian's at that time."
"Bao, can you understand my point? This Qin Jue, he really treats his fans as his own."
"Ah..." My best friend stopped talking.
Tong Guangyi touched the porridge on his hand. Qin Jue bought it for the few ladies who were about to board the plane when everyone left. Now it is just right to drink it warm.
"That tone, if you don't really regard us as friends, you wouldn't say that at all." Tong Guangyi said in a low voice, "You know what my concept is. The entertainment industry is also like this. Stars and artists are like living objects. It doesn’t matter what kind of person they have in private, as long as they hold it in during business hours.”
"I didn't expect that Qin Jue would directly express to me that he was unhappy and unhappy, and that he didn't want to hear what he didn't want to hear when he was with everyone.
"Can you understand, after he said those two sentences, I felt - I realized - damn, there is a living person opposite me."
Tong Guangyi painfully picked up the cup of porridge next to him and sucked it away. The tender care from Qin Jue was so heartwarming that it made him even more painful.
"Hey..." my best friend's voice came from the earphones, "I give you a hug."
She could understand what Tong Guangyi meant. Qin Jue, who expresses his emotions so straightforwardly, is not a "star in the clouds" or a "humanoid commodity with a clear price tag", but a "living person living around you and me". Of course Tong Guangyi can be bold when facing the former, because she is Those who spend money to chase stars naturally have the right to focus on their own happiness in everything, but it is different when facing the latter. She, Tong Guangyi, is a human being, and Qin Jue is also a human being. Both of them have flesh and blood, and they are completely equal in terms of personality and status. Respecting each other when talking is the most basic courtesy.
Tong Guangyi’s best friend has always been a passerby who doesn’t chase stars, but just eats melons. Over the years, she has been exposed to it and knows very well the general views of domestic fans on celebrities. Some of the extremes are:
Either treat them as gods and follow them fanatically;
Either treat them like babies and take care of them in every possible way;
Or treat them as objects and comment on them arbitrarily.
If you think about it carefully, you rarely see artists as living people like yourself.
If it were applied to other celebrities, her best friend might have the same view as Tong Guangyi: When you make money, you don’t treat your fans as human beings, so what’s wrong with your fans not treating you as human beings?
But from what Tong Guangyi just said about Qin Jue's pick-up, even if he removes the identity of celebrity and fan, it can be seen that Qin Jue is a friendly, considerate and easy to get along with in life.
Because of this, Tong Guangyi felt apologetic when he realized that "what he said had offended Qin Jue" - this is the emotion that a normal person with a good upbringing and politeness would feel when socializing.
"Well, it's actually not easy to meet a 'live person in the entertainment industry' like Qin Jue. You will be very happy if you stay in the pit." My best friend thought for a while and said, "If you think he is too close to his fans, Awkward, just be a Buddhist fan who watches from afar?"
"no……"
The porridge in Tong Guangyi's hand has reached the bottom. She looked sad and sighed lightly, "Bao, you don't know that no one can survive in this bad circle."
"I like Qin Jue very much, and I admit that I was particularly touched after picking him up at the airport, but my experience tells me that something will happen to him sooner or later.
"It's not his fault.
"The entertainment industry is like this.
"Now he is the Best Actor of 'Pearl in the Sea', and he is accidentally involved in the 'big news' that everyone loves to hear. With his temperament and his behavior, if this continues, I dare say something will happen.
"All true-hearted star chasers will be punished. I want to run away now because I am protecting myself.
“I’m in the industry just to be happy and refreshed, and I have my own real life.
"Qin Jue is very good. I like him very much, but I don't dare to go deep into the pit or get emotional. I'm afraid that one day a big change will happen and I will be so uncomfortable that I can't sleep all night long, and my heart will be cut like a knife. I've already felt that feeling once, and I'd be a fool to do it again."
There was silence in the voice call for a while.
After a while, my best friend said in a very soft voice: "But listening to those words just now shows that you have completely and sincerely fallen into Qin Jue's trap."
Tong Guangyi remained silent for a long time without making a sound.
