After washing up, Wan Ning's noisy gossip continued. Jiang Rong climbed into bed, not forgetting to bring the bracelet and data card into bed together.
Although there is a rather exaggerated plot of "the school girl wins countless nymphos when she comes out", fortunately the director did not portray Jingyue University as an unattainable aristocratic institution. The specifications of the dormitory are still relatively standard four-person rooms with one bed and one bed. table. The scene where Jiang Rong climbs the ladder and gets into the blackout curtain is quite realistic, and friends all posted comments saying "it resonated in unexpected places".
Qin Jue glanced at a place, quickly pressed pause with his eyesight, and took a screenshot to enlarge it. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help laughing.
It turned out that there was an open book placed in Jiang Rong's bed tent, and the chapter exposed was called "On Power", which contained several views on "what kind of people are strong people". Jiang Rong took it. The contents underlined in red include:
Dark colors and less decorative clothing can help increase your overall sense of seriousness and give people an impression that cannot be taken lightly;
Mature makeup and smart hairstyle will make you closer to the image of a successful person;
Your emotions and anger are invisible, strengthening your sense of mystery;
Be concise and concise. You should ensure that every sentence has enough gold content, rather than distracting from the value contained in your words with a large number of trivial remarks;
When it's time to express your stance, you should express your stance, evaluate your position, and demonstrate your attitude and principles. Only in this way can you prevent others from violating your bottom line.
There is another line of beautiful handwriting: You must become stronger, you can’t be bullied or looked down upon! ╰_╯
The following "ah" characters and the drawn emoticons were also crossed out with another color of pen, and marked again: No coquettishness, no cuteness! Remember!
[What happened made me laugh to death]
[Jiang Rong: Secretly learn what it means to be strong! 】
[This book has some truth and some nonsense, hahahahaha, but Jiang Rong who studies it quietly is so cute]
[I seem to have seen me learning how to act cool in my second year of high school]
[Forcibly pretending to be a cold lady, fun]
[This little detail is really fun, Brother Jue’s eyesight is really good (thumbs up.jpg]
[The heroine works so hard, she really makes me cry to death hhhhhh]
[Uh uh uh, but Li Jingyu is really not good at it]
[The heroine was a failure for ljy...]
Qin Jue's eyes swept across the discordant barrages in twos and threes without saying anything.
The details of the props arranged by the crew were indeed a pity. If her guess was correct, Li Jingyu's own team should have intervened to create the makeup that best suited the actor rather than the character, which led to the birth of the bug.
After all, there is no reason for Jiang Rong to only follow the last few rules and ignore the three most convenient items of "dark clothing", "mature makeup" and "sophisticated hairstyle" - mostly because Li Jingyu has always been light-weight. The fairy style is not suitable for black clothes, wavy red lips, and this is why the audience now sees a look that is contradictory to "On Power".
Shaking his head secretly, Qin Jue didn't mention anything about Li Jingyu, but smiled and praised the props team for their efforts.
In fact, many film crews are like this. There are many serious people in the creative team. However, the publicity point of the production and the public's attention are usually on the actors. Over time, a stereotype is formed, that is, the actors decide whether a work is good or bad. .
As long as the actors are not good, the movie or the drama will be labeled as "bad". Idol dramas like "Shadow Link" are especially hard hit. It is often said, "Your brother and sister are so bad at acting!" There is no doubt that this drama is bad! Fans will only brag about Fu Huadao!" and other arguments.
Although it is true that fans use makeup, props, etc. to cover up an actor's negligence, it is a matter of course. If the beauty of the costumes and filming of a certain work is indeed outstanding, affirm it and praise it. It is also normal, and should not be beaten to death by remarks such as "You are just saying this to divert attention, just to clear the actor's name" - not everyone only revolves around the actor all day long, and only speaks for the actor. view.
During the period after graduating from "Entertainment Intern", Qin Jue often saw makeup artists Liu Chen and Gu Wensong and costume designers Yue Shishi and Cong Ning'an expressing their helplessness in the group chat of Entertainment Class 1. Some of them are currently working on a certain crew. They are obviously working hard and treating their work with ingenuity, but they have received countless scorns because the main actors are popular stars. They really are not expected before they can show off.
"If you have XX, you don't have to watch it to know that it's a bad show!" A blanket judgment and a final statement completely negate the hard work of countless behind-the-scenes workers.
"It's not bad. It's common to be dragged down by others in group work. Whoever takes care of you is the least worth it!" Cong Ning'an once laughed at himself, "Actors are the face of the work and the most critical element in presenting the work. They attract a lot of attention. , it should have a large impact on the overall evaluation.”
What he said was reasonable, and Qin Jue understood it, but he still hoped that a work and the members who participated in its creation could be judged as objectively and comprehensively as possible.
After all, people and things are complex and multifaceted. It is common to have advantages and disadvantages, and we should not generalize.
Take "Shadow Link" as an example. Criticism of Li Jingyu's poor acting skills and lack of respect for the character's makeup and image are not inconsistent with affirmation of the meticulous props and careful special effects.
At this time, Jiang Rong in the picture was lying on the bed playing with the bracelet, tentatively inserting the data card into it. A burst of cold blue light with a strong sense of technology passed by in a line pattern, and the bracelet stretched and deformed. In a few seconds, it turned into a pair of glasses. The whole process was silky and smooth.
Even Qingqing, a book fan who hates how the screenwriter changed the "other world" to the background of an online game, has to admit that this section is indeed cool and has a great look.
【Is it coming? Is it coming? 】
[Okay, you’re in the game]
【Hurry up and let me watch the fight——】
[Don’t worry, there is still a plot here]
Qin Jue, who had watched the first episode of the Jingxing River version, reminded Qin Jue that she was also a little curious about what kind of integration and adaptation the director and screenwriter used in the setting of "Shadow of the Heart".
It shouldn't be a simple and rude attack, right?
Qin Jue waited patiently.
Jiang Rong turned off the small desk lamp, lay on the bed, put on her glasses, and lightly touched the switch on the temples. The two indicators showing the power and network status flashed twice, and then the white light flooded out, indicating that Jiang Rong had entered the world of online games.
"Wow……"
The voiceover of "Voice of the Heart" that once appeared in the auditorium sounded again, "It turns out to be "Heart Shadow Link"! That holographic online game with a limited edition of five million copies and extremely high technical capabilities!"
The camera moves slightly left and right, and you can tell at a glance that it's Jiang Rong's first point of view.
"But...how to play?"
"Welcome to Heart Shadow Link!"
Jiang Rong was startled by the sound of a system that deliberately retained a mechanical quality. At the same time, a scroll unfolded in the center of the screen. It was not the option of entering a game nickname as the audience imagined, but a questionnaire that looked like a psychological test.
"Hello new players, as the only holographic online game in the world, this game adheres to the concept of 'allowing players to discover their true selves in the virtual world, face their hearts without worries, and seek authentic fun and satisfaction'. "
The system introduced unhurriedly, "This game does not have exact career branches. The 'emotion system' is the most important setting. Different emotional ratios will affect your growth path in the game. So, please complete the steps ahead. Get the analysis results of this questionnaire - show your truest mood and find the shadow of your soul!"
Jiang Rong: "Huh? Huh??"
After the introduction was finished, the system tone went silent. Jiang Rong approached the scroll floating in the air in a daze. He first filled in the real-name information such as gender, age, and ID card, and then started reading from the first question.
【Do you often feel nervous and uneasy? 】
[No] [Very light] [Medium] [Severe] [Serious] [Customized answer]
Jiang Rong: "Uh-huh..."
She made a somewhat resistant sound, but it wasn't because she found the questionnaire in front of her troublesome, but because she didn't want to face the test results for the moment.
"Can this game really help people find their true selves?"
Jiang Rong's heartbeat sounded faintly. Different from the majestic voice created externally, it had a stronger girlish tone, expressing her worries and desires vividly.
"Oh, it shouldn't matter, it's just a game anyway...?"
Jiang Rong "said" and reached out to touch the roll paper. A row of virtual keyboards appeared. She hesitated for a few seconds and clicked on the last "custom answer".
"The more detailed the answers, the more accurate the analysis will be?" Jiang Rong said with hesitation, "I haven't done such a test for a long time. What is the real me like... It would be great if this game could really analyze accurately. Already..."
She sighed lightly and began to answer each question seriously.
[How do you feel when your parents hug you? 】
【Do you often cry? 】
【Is there anyone you hate? To what extent? 】
Questions came one after another, and Jiang Rong's custom input box was filled with dense answers. He looked silly because he was too serious, and it looked a little funny.
"Wow, there are so many..." She said in her heart, but Jiang Rong did not lose her patience and still treated every problem seriously.
The time in the outside world is beating minute by minute. A luxury car is parked at the door of a gorgeous and elegant residence. The driver respectfully opens the door and Liao Jingchen bends down to get out of the car.
The camera zooms out very far, and the gorgeous villa is like a cage of wealth. Liao Jingchen, who is clearly dressed in formal clothes, is also full of nobility, but under the silent gaze of this giant thing that symbolizes wealth and power, his nobility is easily forgotten. The earth was annihilated and swallowed up, and finally the whole person was enveloped in it, making him extremely small.
Liao Jingchen stepped through the door, his posture as elegant as ever.
"You're back." The graceful and elegant lady stood on the stairs, her eyes filled with love wrapped in pride.
Liao Jingchen smiled: "I'm back. I was busy today, so I was delayed for a while."
His mother nodded slightly and said, "Your father is waiting for you in the study."
Liao Jingchen's smile remained at the current curve and his eyelids drooped: "Yes, I'll go right away."
In this family, I can’t remember how many years ago it was the last time I called “Dad” and “Mom” directly. It seems that as long as he can remember, he, Liao Jingchen, has been taught to be respectful and polite, and to treat his father and mother with respect. There must be no slightest sign of neglect.
The door of the study room was opened by the butler. The room was very deep, like a well lying horizontally. At the bottom of the well was his father Liao Hongjing. The man also had a pair of deep eyes similar to the well. He could not see through. He only felt that it was dark and deep, which made people feel sad. He didn't dare to look directly, so he had to bow his head in awe.
"come over."
Liao Hongjing called his youngest son.
Liao Jingchen walked into the deep well and into the huge mouth studded with gold and jade teeth.
Squeak——
The door to the study was closed, and the man-eating mouth was shut.
…
Qin Jue's pen was spinning again and he wrote more words than before.
The actor Liao Hongjing is an experienced actor who has clearly studied the role. Whether it is his calm temperament or the deep-hidden love of his father, he is just right, which is of great help to Qin Jue's understanding of the drama version of Liao Jingchen.
"Shuashua", jotting down the key points and waiting to sort out the character biographies later, Qin Jue glanced at Luo Ling on the screen and marked on the page where he commented: [Lack of aura, failed to catch the scene]
Wrote another ps: [The lens language here is very good, but it’s a pity]
The screen panned to a scene, where Liao Jingchen was listening to his father's teachings, while Jiang Rong was looking at the test results in a daze.
[You are a kind person and have a natural affection for everything in the world. You have a sincere soul and almost animal-like intuition, and can keenly distinguish the good intentions and malice from others, and give your love and trust. You have a simple and innocent mind, without many twists and turns, you are peaceful and gentle in dealing with things, you think for the best in everything, you are rarely angry or resentful, you are full of healing power, and you are a soft little sun. 】
[You enjoy love, long for love, and hope to be tolerated and cared for, but you also understand that reality is complicated, so you try to disguise yourself as a strong person. The negative emotions lingering in your heart are uneasiness and vulnerability. You know that there is a heavy burden on your shoulders, so you often feel tired, worried and afraid. 】
Line after line of seemingly smooth sentences appeared in front of Jiang Rong, and finally a few words came into her eyes with light spots:
[Are you okay, little girl? 】
Jiang Rong's eyes trembled suddenly and he slowly closed his eyes.
The soft light condenses into a frame of memories at the edge of the picture. The little girl running "click-click-click" holds the candied haws and bursts into the house with a smile. The tall man squats down to catch her, and then lifts it high.
"Oh, let me down!" the woman in the kitchen said coquettishly, with endless pampering and tenderness in her eyes.
"Rongrong likes to be lifted high, right? Hey~yo~!" The man held the little girl's armpits with both hands, put her down and lifted her up again while giggling, "It's flying——"
"Let's fly~" the childish voice repeated his father's words, with his mother's gentle laughter in the background.
The next second, the red scarf fluttered happily on her chest, and the little girl giggled and waved the test paper in her hand:
"Mom and Dad, I got a hundred points in the exam!"
"Oh, our furry baby is so powerful? Let mommy give it a kiss, mua - what do you want to eat tonight? How about short ribs?"
"Well, I want... a new pencil case! One that can pop out the mechanism!"
"Huh?"
"Hahahahahaha, okay, I'll buy you a stationery box as a reward." The man smiled, lifted his daughter up and weighed it, then turned to explain to his wife, "Last time I took my child to work and passed by a stationery store, she was very clever. , I immediately caught the eye of the one in the window..."
"Pfft, I said so."
"Daddy, daddy~" the little girl hugged her father's neck and rubbed her, "I also want a new dress!"
"Then it depends on the results of the final exam?" The man tickled his beard, which made his daughter laugh. "RongRong studies hard, and your parents also work hard. Can I give you a new dress then?"
"good--"
There was a sudden explosion, the vase fell to the ground, and then there was a heavy door slam.
The bedroom door opened a narrow crack, and the girl stared at her mother kneeling in the living room crying bitterly. After a while, she walked over with her short legs, trying to wipe away her mother's tears.
She was hugged by her, and all she could see was her shoulders shaking from crying.
"Why..." the woman choked and whispered, "I don't believe it..."
The divorce certificate automatically opened without wind, and a page floated in. The critical illness notice said patient Jiang Feng.
The paper was crumpled by one hand, and the scene changed. A haggard-looking woman sat beside the hospital bed, tears falling down one by one.
"Fool……"
"What's the point of not being a drag..."
"You also lied to me and said that you fell in love with another woman..."
The cries overlapped, and the older girl stood numbly at the front, her face covered with tears.
"You might as well take me with you!"
There was a cry of grief, and the woman in mourning clothes suddenly fainted. The girl opened her red and swollen eyes in shock, and rushed to catch her collapsed mother with a group of relatives.
Time flies.
The corners of her high school uniform swayed and curved as she walked. The girl brought a cup of water to her bedridden mother and watched her take medicine bit by bit. Her face was no longer the childlike innocence it once was, but she had a sensible smile.
There was a noise outside, and the girl frowned, smiled and coaxed her mother to sleep, then walked to the door alone, picking up a broom halfway.
"Third uncle, if you come here again to talk to matchmakers, I will kick you out!"
"Hey, hey, you kid..."
"My mother said she doesn't want to remarry! And don't think that I don't know what kind of people you are looking for. They either smoke, drink, and play cards every day, or they are idle and have foreign debts. My father helped you a lot when he was here. Now you will Do you have to take advantage of our mother and daughter?!"
"Oh, isn't this a consideration for you two? Look at you orphans and widowed mothers. Your mother's health has collapsed again. If there is no man in the family, who will take care of her?"
"I'll raise it!"
"Hey! You little girl - Hey! You really dare to hit someone! You -"
The keychain attached to his belt clattered, and the man with a slight beer belly yelled and hid, and left in embarrassment.
"Jiang Rong! Jiang Rong! Manly woman!"
The sounds of laughter and teasing continued one after another, and the girl's school uniform was like a young general's cloak, swaying menacingly with her steps.
"Miao Xiaojun, you were late for your self-study this morning. Wang Fei, you didn't turn in the math paper yesterday and the day before yesterday. And you, Zhang Yongxin, deliberately stretched your feet to trip other students during the running exercise. If you don't want to be notified and criticized, get out of here."
The breeze blew and the curtains fluttered softly.
The woman, who was in good health, carefully wiped the photo frame and reached out to touch the photo of a family of three.
There was a sound of unlocking and the door opened.
Jiang Rong clicked her feet and put on indoor slippers hastily. Her figure was jumping up and down, her expression was joyful, and she could vaguely see her childhood appearance.
She trotted and hugged her mother, who was no longer taller than her before she knew it.
"Mom, I was admitted to Jingyue University!"

I've been having a hard time breaking chapters lately, so this month I'll start the chaotic update mode. The number of words per chapter varies from 2k to 6k. Daily updates are not guaranteed, but the total word count of 28 (number of days) x 2000 (guaranteed number of words per chapter) is definitely just a lot more. That's about it.
