Contrary to popular stereotypes, QS's recording studio is large in size and luxuriously decorated. In addition to the sound collection area, which is built according to acoustic theory, the outside rest area can accommodate a dozen people for meetings or parties.
When Xie Qianyu and Jin Shanhong returned after chatting, there was really no sound of fighting or quarreling in the room. Instead, several people were sitting in rows around the circular sofa and chatting.
"Since Jiyeon calls me senior, senior, let me treat you to dinner today. How about barbecue?"
Xie Qianyu, who had just walked in, heard this and interrupted angrily: "Why are you eating barbecue? I'm going to come back soon and don't need to manage my figure? From today on, I will eat nutritious meals."
"Then let me treat you to dinner, President Nim?" Han Xiaozhou sat at the innermost part of the circular sofa with a table in the middle, facing Xie Qianyu who was standing at the door.
Compared to Han Xiaozhou who seemed to be in a good mood, Xie Qianyu showed no expression and motioned to T-ara on both sides to stand up and move out of the way: "I'm almost too busy. I have something to do tonight. As an actor, you should also pay attention to body management. ah."
Being complained about her age by her colleagues and being disliked by her boss for her figure are two major pain points in a woman's life. Today, Han Xiaozhou has experienced it all over again.
Unhappy, she pouted, took advantage of Xie Qianyu's back to make a face, and then squeezed out from between the sofa and the table.
Turning to face T-ara, she put on a smile again with the quality of a professional actor, and bowed deeply: "It's a pleasure to meet you all today. We will be colleagues from now on. I hope you can give me some advice!"
Before leaving, she hugged her good friend Xian Eunjing.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the garage." Xie Qianyu stepped aside from the door like a gentleman, signaling Han Xiaozhou to go first.
"No thanks, Chanchan, I know the way. But don't forget the ending of "Only You" and the preparatory meeting for "Sea of Light."
"I know, it will be solved as soon as possible, either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." After hearing this, Han Xiaozhou nodded and walked out on his own. Xie Qianyu turned around and said, "You should dance, study and practice. After that, ask the assistant to take you back to the dormitory. Work harder these days! Teacher Jin, I will leave them to you."
After saying that, Xie Qianyu also left in a hurry, taking three steps at a time to catch up with Han Xiaozhou.
"The movie "Gwanghae"... Do you want me to change the male lead to you? How about your former boss Lee Byung-hun?"
"What, are you too busy to make a movie?" Han Xiaozhou looked at Xie Qianyu who was catching up with him strangely, making the man feel a little regretful for what he just said:
Even if Li Bingxian really agreed, would he be willing to do it?
"That's not the case, I'm just afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? Are you so afraid of Enjing being jealous?"
Xie Qianyu was silent for a while and then said: "Not really, it's just going to be a little uncomfortable."
I feel inexplicably uncomfortable when I think about other actors acting with Han Hyo-joo, let alone Ham Eun-jeong, a legitimate girlfriend?
"We are all professional actors. Even if my family can't understand, she should be able to understand. Besides...I think you are a good partner...?"
The two of them unknowingly reached the same position as last time. Xie Qianyu said with emotion: "I'm with Enjing..."
"I know, but aren't you really engaged yet?"
Some sudden words made Xie Qianyu freeze in place: Han Xiaozhou, a girl, has a tenacity in her body, which was one of the reasons why I had a crush on her in the first place, but I didn't expect that this tenacity would be used...
Hey, you have to deal with what you brought upon yourself in the end.
----------------------------------
Looking at the somewhat entangled and bitter man, Han Xiaozhou was as straightforward as ever: "Aren't we going to be filming together for a long time? It's a good thing to have a good impression of the leading actor."
"Why bother? You're just wasting your time on me."
"Then why did you try so hard to recruit me in the first place? Can't we act together in BH?!!"
The emotions that had been accumulated for a long time finally burst out. Although Han Xiaozhou tried his best to suppress his voice, Xie Qianyu still heard dissatisfaction, grief, anger and...sadness...
"sorry......"
"What's the use of being sorry! If you want to say sorry, why don't you join the crew of "Tong Yi" in the first place and don't get to know me!"
Han Xiaozhou became more excited and felt indescribably sad.
"At that time, I didn't know how happy I was to have a girl who loved me and cared about me. I was really a bastard at that time. I'm sorry... Let's make movies together in the future..."
The man's words were almost a naked rejection, but Han Xiaozhou smiled, his white teeth and bright eyes still dazzling: "No need to be sorry, we are in the same company now, you can't get rid of me even if you want."
She is truly worthy of being called the "goddess of smiles". This smile still makes Xie Qianyu feel the same as before.
Although there are some tears and scarlet in the girl's eyes...
"Do you remember this place? Some things are not like movies - you can forget them after watching them once. Reality is reality. That's it, I'm leaving first."
When speaking, Han Xiaozhou's eyes seemed to have lost focus, and he pursed his lips slightly before walking towards the elevator.
"Since ancient times, there has always been passion and hatred, and good dreams are the easiest to wake up from."
Xie Qianyu felt that he understood this somewhat. At that time, his mentality of "picking flowers everywhere" made him get into trouble in vain. Finally, when he made up his mind to change his ways, the price of being a scumbag was returned to him.
He didn't dare to say that meeting Han Xiaozhou was just a dream, but the moment he woke up after knowing it was a bit painful. He stood there for a long time, staring blankly at the girl's figure disappearing at the end of the corridor.
In the practice room on the other side, Xian Eunjing, who is usually the most serious, became a little absent-minded.
[The other party is already capable of taking on the important role of the heroine on the big screen, so work hard Eun-jeong...]
Is it loss? Still unwilling?
She herself couldn't explain her current state of mind, she just mechanically followed the rhythm of the music and repeated the movements she knew by heart.
Practicing dance, breaking down, arranging, recording songs...
Life before returning was always the quietest and most boring. Everyone was repeating the same things over and over again. Xian Eunjing felt as if she was about to become mechanized.
Perhaps only in this busy life, she could gradually numb herself and not think about the things that existed and didn't exist.
"Fighting, Eunjung!"
----------------------------------
Maybe Han Hyo-joo is right, some things that have happened will not end as easily as acting.
More often than not, they are more like a fish bone stuck in the throat, lingering for a long time and reminding you of its existence.
Xie Qianyu walked to the garage in despair, not knowing what to do and feeling a little irritable. People tend to become irritable and irritable when they are busy, not to mention that he has been a little too busy recently, and when he stops, he is like a machine that is offline.
The large basement was dotted with internal employee vehicles, tracking vehicles used by the guards as disguises, and nanny vans used to transport T-ara. The white streamlined sports car looked out of place among them.
If An Zhengxun was here now, Xie Qianyu might take it out on him. At least having someone with him would give him some relief.
It wasn't until he walked to the car that he realized that the other party had already been arranged by him to go to MBC to discuss the follow-up local filming of "The Heirs".
"Grass!!!"
There is no need to endure it anymore.
Xie Qianyu, who was depressed and had nowhere to vent, kicked hard... on the left front wheel of the car...
Fortunately, his last bit of rationality allowed him to choose the wheel hub as his target. Otherwise, with such a powerful kick, it would have been a "front mouth set" if he replaced it with other replacement parts.
After an explosion, a lot of the irritability in his heart was vented, and his feet started to hurt. Xie Qianyu sat down in the driver's seat, took a few deep breaths, then started the car and started strolling around.
This is a video store + a new-style bookstore with a cafe next door...
This is a small shop selling peripherals for fans...
This is a food street with Chinese cuisine as its gimmick...
This is the seafood shop left for my father-in-law to open...
The sky was getting dark, and the sports car moved slowly along the streets of Seoul with the traffic, going around several large and small streets centered on the QS Building.
Just like big pants are to CCTV, like the World Expo venues are to Shanghai, like the rust-green goddess statue to the United States...
Xie Qianyu has always been thinking about creating a special area with the theme of T-ara or the music industry, and he has been promoting this: with his own company as the core, backed by the Han River, and developing towards the south of the Yangtze River, this half of the fan-shaped area is all in his Within the planning scope, it has now begun to take shape.
After taking a closer look at his property, the man was in a good mood and stepped on the accelerator. Sometimes putting himself in danger was a way to relieve stress.
With the powerful roar of the engine, he drove eastward.
Gangwon-do, Gangneung City,
Xie Qianyu himself didn't know what mysterious force guided him. He drove straight along the highway to the other end of South Korea.
Seoul is not far from Gangwon Province, but it still takes nearly three hours to drive to Gangneung City, which is located on the east coast of the peninsula, no matter how good the car is.
He parked the car at a beachside bathing beach. It was already approaching midnight. The first thing Xie Qianyu did was...
Find a public restroom for convenience!
After draining the water, the man was so satisfied that he relaxed his body, which was a little stiff after driving for a long time. He walked around to look around, thinking that he had already come here, so he might as well bring some local seafood back.
As a famous coastal city, there are indeed many seafood selling or seafood processing shops on both sides of Jiangling Street.
But...it's almost one o'clock in the morning now...
The live seafood caught the day before has long been sold out, and in Gangneung, which is not as fast-paced as Seoul, there are not even a few late-night food stalls still open.
The wind with the smell of sea blowing on the body refreshed the body and gave goosebumps to the body. Xie Qianyu made up his mind to go to the convenience store to buy bread and beer to fill his stomach after seeing the restaurant in front of him.
“The fresh seafood has been sold out today!”
"If you want to eat, please come at six o'clock the next morning to snap up the first batch of catch!"
"Like this every day!"
Originally, I thought that the front of this two-story building was quite impressive, but I didn't expect that I had no choice but to leave in the end. However, Xie Qianyu was still interested in the beautiful notice posted on the glass and decided to come to this store early in the morning. .
The dim street scene, the blue sky, the never-ending sound of the tide... The melancholy and handsome man slowly walked towards the convenience store he passed by when he came...
----------------------------------
A rice ball, two pieces of bread, and two cans of beer, this was Xie Qianyu's dinner + midnight snack, but he was quite content.
Sitting alone on the beach, listening silently to the ebb and flow of the tide, you don't need to force yourself to see anything clearly in the dark, and your mind can be empty for a short time.
A mouthful of carbohydrates and a mouthful of wine. This kind of life is simply a gift from God for those who like peace and quiet.
Xie Qianyu also thought absurdly that while he was sitting here selling his melancholy, a hidden god from online novels would come to his door, take a fancy to his unique bones, and insist on swearing allegiance to him.
The result is obviously not...
Sitting alone on the beach in the middle of the night, it would be nice if others didn't think of him as a lunatic. Even if fishermen fishing at night occasionally saw him, they would stay away from him and still be loyal to him?
Just dream...
After admiring a not-so-splendid sunrise alone, Xie Qianyu, who was almost awake from the wine, drank the last sip from the can as he watched the surrounding residents and tourists watching the sunrise gradually increase on the beach. Pick up the garbage and throw it into the trash can on the roadside.
Putting his hands in his pockets and putting on his hood, Xie Qianyu looked at the time and walked briskly towards the seafood restaurant he had visited earlier.
"Boss, what fresh products did you catch today? Give me... weigh a little of each fresh product!"
The flow of people in the seafood shop in the early morning is neither too large nor too small, but it is not at the level of "rush buying" as written on the poster. Following a few aunts who got up early, Xie Qianyu finally saw a kind face. boss.
"There are not many young people like you who get up early. Are you here to buy something to eat for your girlfriend?"
Facing the familiar boss, Xie Qianyu felt a little strange inexplicably, but he didn't say much and just said yes.
"The octopus, salmon, and caviar that can be eaten raw have been processed and are here. Do you want to pack the remaining crabs and shrimps directly or should I process them for you?"
Thinking that he would still have to cook it when he took it back, Xie Qianyu thought it would be better to try the local taste: "Then I'd better ask Uncle Agassi to help cook it. I'll wait here."
I arrived early enough, and there was not a lot of people in the store yet. The boss also handled the matter very quickly. Not long after, he walked out of the back kitchen carrying several large and small steaming packing boxes. When he saw Xie Qianyu, he murmured softly. One sentence:
"It's a pity that we didn't get good abalone today, otherwise we could have added abalone and ginseng chicken soup..."
Although the voice was low, Xie Qianyu, who had an excellent ear, still heard it, and it was assumed that the boss was complaining.
"A total of 250,000 yuan. Should I pay by card or cash?"
There are four or five plastic bags on the table, but you don’t need more than a thousand soft girl coins to eat these in a seaside city, right?
Xie Qianyu knew he was being ripped off, but he didn't expect to encounter the "sky-high-priced prawns" trick after being thousands of miles away. However, he didn't want to cause more trouble: "Cash it, here."
Taking out five newly issued 50,000 won banknotes, Xie Qianyu accepted his defeat and planned to leave quickly.
"You obviously speak with a Seoul accent, so don't pretend to be a local regular customer and don't want to be cheated, kid! Let's go quickly!" When handing the plastic bag to Xie Qianyu's hand, the boss who smelled fishy showed an unknown smile. , patted the other party's shoulder and said.
