Chapter 896 996. New Opponent
"Okay, stop looking so sad. Leave this to me. Just focus on studying." Nie Wei smiled and rubbed Zhou Duoduo's little head. Just one sentence made the girl feel relieved from the bottom of her heart.
Zhou Duoduo, who no longer had any worries, smiled again. She talked endlessly with Shu Chang and almost wanted to have dinner in the living room.
After finally finishing dinner in a hurry under Nie Wei's persuasion, Zhou Duoduo dragged Shu Chang back to her bedroom, saying that she wanted to ask Shu Chang how to put on makeup.
It was obvious that she couldn't wait to experience the effect of buying a lot of cosmetics today.
Nie Wei returned to his room and continued to complete the storyboard he had not finished.
Generally, as long as the preparation period is long enough, Nie Wei will draw a storyboard script. After all, a script with a storyboard script is completely different from a script with pure text.
There are many benefits to drawing a good storyboard script. First, it can assist the photographer in shooting. There is a big difference between having pictures and not having pictures for the photographer. Without pictures, he can only rely on his own performance. Even the most talented photographer cannot guarantee that the pictures he shoots are what the director wants.
But it is different with pictures. With a comparison, at least you have an idea of what kind of shots the director wants. If you shoot in this direction, you will basically not make any big mistakes.
And the storyboard script is not only helpful for filming, but also for post-editing.
Of course, the biggest help is the actors. With the storyboard script, they also have a direction for their performance, especially those new actors. This is like an "open-book exam" for them.
Although there are no rookie actors in "Inception", Nie Wei still decided to draw the storyboard script to give the actors a direction for their performance.
Nie Wei was drawing and drawing, and three hours passed unknowingly.
It was the sound of Shu Chang pushing the door that woke him up from his work.
"Duoduo is asleep?" Nie Wei asked as he watched Shu Chang return to the room.
"I put on a mask and lay down. Duoduo followed me around for a whole day, so I think she must be tired." Shu Chang rubbed his shoulders and replied.
Seeing this, Nie Wei put down the storyboard script at hand, stood up and motioned Shu Chang to sit on the chair. After Shu Chang sat down, Nie Wei pressed her shoulders and massaged her muscles.
"Thank you for your hard work, my wife." Nie Wei massaged and thanked her.
Shu Chang said that Zhou Duoduo was tired, but Shu Chang, who had been with Zhou Duoduo for a whole day, was more tired. She not only had to help Zhou Duoduo choose clothes, cosmetics, and jewelry, but also taught her how to use them, and even had to deal with Zhou Duoduo's various strange questions. I think she was not only tired physically, but also mentally.
But Shu Chang didn't complain at all. Why wasn't it because Zhou Duoduo was Nie Wei's sister?
Therefore, Nie Wei could feel Shu Chang's kindness. If he put himself in Shu Chang's shoes, he would naturally treat Shu Chang better. He would help her rub her shoulders to relieve her fatigue. Of course, he would do it as soon as possible.
Shu Chang was very satisfied with Nie Wei's thoughtfulness, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rise a little.
"Husband, what about Uncle Zhou? Can you really handle it? Or should I go and persuade him?" After enjoying Nie Wei's service for a while, Shu Chang felt sorry for Nie Wei's tiredness, so he said that it was okay and he didn't need to press, and then mentioned Zhou Aiguo's problem.
It is difficult for a clean official to judge family affairs, not to mention that Nie Wei is in the middle of it. If Zhou Aiguo keeps insisting on his own opinion, Nie Wei, as a junior, really has no way to deal with it.
Unless he persuades Zhou Duoduo to give in, but is that possible?
It is more uncomfortable to ask a girl to give up beautiful clothes and cosmetics that can make her more beautiful than to kill her. At least Shu Chang herself feels that she can't do it. If she puts herself in his shoes, she has no reason to persuade Zhou Duoduo to give up.
"You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll take care of it." Nie Wei smiled and comforted Shu Chang, telling her not to worry.
Early the next morning, Nie Wei and Cheng Zimo came back from exercise and saw Shu Chang being pulled to the dining table by Zhou Duoduo with a dazed look on his face.
During breakfast, Zhou Duoduo kept chatting and Shu Chang kept nodding, but in Nie Wei's opinion, Shu Chang was more like dozing off than responding to Zhou Duoduo, after all, the two of them slept quite late last night.
Zhou Duoduo didn't feel sorry for her sister-in-law, but Nie Wei felt sorry for his wife.
So Nie Wei let Zhou Duoduo go out to play alone so that Shu Chang could have a rest.
"No need, I just got up and haven't woken up yet, I'm much better now. I made an appointment with Duoduo to go to Beijiang Park yesterday." Shu Chang said with all his strength, looking at Zhou Duoduo's disappointed look.
Seeing Shu Chang's insistence, Nie Wei didn't know what to say, but he was already thinking about sending this little troublemaker back to the courtyard early tomorrow morning. Bear children are really not cute.
Zhou Duoduo didn't know that she had been "disdained" by her brother. When she heard that Shu Chang could go out with her again, she was immediately very happy. After Shu Chang finished breakfast, he pulled her back to the bedroom to choose clothes. After all, she bought so many clothes yesterday. She was so eager to go out today just to show off in new clothes.
After a day, the popularity of "Longing for Life" has not decreased, but the discussion on the Internet has become more and more intense.
This kind of rural and pastoral Buddhist variety show is like a stream of fresh air, which instantly brings a refreshing feeling to the audience who have watched too many domestic "tearing X" variety shows. It is like eating too much meat and suddenly having a dish of green vegetables. Even people who don't like green vegetables will pick up two leaves to relieve the greasiness. What's more, the green vegetables are delicious, so of course they will be very popular.
After watching "Longing for Life", the audience found that there is no tearing X, no fast pace, and no need for intrigue, and good variety shows can also be made.
In the national variety show rankings, this variety show directly landed in the top three with a super high score of 9.1. The only one ahead of it is "Infinite Challenge", and it even squeezed "We Got Married" to the third place.
And "Longing for Life" has also attracted the attention of many people in the industry.
Of course, they are in pain and happiness at this time.
The reason for happiness is that Fanxing Variety Show has created a new variety show model, and this market is still in its initial stage. No matter how well Fanxing Variety Show does, it only airs once a week, and it will definitely not be able to take up the entire market, which gives other companies with ideas in the industry an opportunity.
The reason for pain is that many companies are currently doing celebrity virtual love shows like Fanxing Company's previous "We Got Married". Now Fanxing has suddenly launched such a fresh and refined variety show. If they want to follow up, they must adjust the company's overall strategy.
After all, not all companies can be as talented and wealthy as Fanxing, and can easily open several variety shows at the same time, and the quality is not bad at all.
Many companies are of the type with limited strength and limited resources. If you want to do a variety show well, you can't be distracted, so many companies are struggling whether to follow up.
Nie Wei spent the whole morning drawing the storyboard script. After lunch, he had lunch alone in the villa. In the afternoon, he did not continue to do the unfinished work, but prepared to go to the company's annex building to see how the trainees were doing.
Just when Nie Wei called Luo Kai and asked him to pick him up to go to the company, the trainees in the Huayi annex building basically gathered in their respective practice rooms to "escape the heat".
Although it was already late summer and early autumn, Kyoto was the hottest at this time, because there was little wind in Kyoto in autumn, and the high temperature in summer had not yet subsided, so the weather at this time gave people a feeling of sultry heat. Just walking outside would make you sweat all over, and your whole body would be sticky, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
At this time, the trainees basically hid in the practice room and did not go out. It was not because they were so diligent, but because only the air conditioner in the practice room was turned on at this time.
"Ah! Thank the air conditioner for giving me a life." Liu Xiyun lay on the floor, arranging herself into a "big" character, feeling the coolness, she couldn't help but moan with comfort.
"Hurry up, the dance teacher will come and see you like this, and it's time to scold you again." As Liu Xiyun's good friend, Xiaochen was sitting next to her. Seeing her good friend's unpresentable appearance, she couldn't help but remind her immediately.
"No, teacher, you can scold me if you want. I really don't want to move now." Liu Xiyun replied coquettishly.
The air conditioner in the cafeteria broke down at noon. Everyone was sweating during lunch. Now they finally returned to a cool place. The difference between the hot and the cool made Liu Xiyun want to roll on the ground to show how much she enjoyed the comfort at this moment.
Just when Xiaochen was about to persuade his good partner to pay attention to his image, the door of the practice room was suddenly pushed open. Liu Xiyun reacted in less than a second and quickly rolled up from the ground. Then she looked at the door and had already started to make a draft in her mind. If the teacher saw her careless image, she would apologize directly. If she didn't see it, she would pretend that nothing happened...
However, when she saw who came in, her tense state immediately relaxed.
"Hi, hello." The girl who came in grinned and greeted Xiaochen and Liu Xiyun carefully.
"Hello." Xiaochen and Liu Xiyun looked at each other and answered at the same time.
After the greeting, the practice room fell into silence again, and there was an atmosphere called "awkward".
Liu Xiyun was lucky to have Xiaochen accompany her, but the girl who just came in was obviously a little uneasy. After staying for a while, she left in a hurry.
"She is the Song Qian who dances very well and I told you about. She came here three days ago." Xiaochen whispered to Liu Xiyun.
Because Liu Xiyun was sent out by the company to participate in an event a few days ago, she didn't know who the new girl was, so Xiaochen explained.
Hearing Xiaochen's words, Liu Xiyun couldn't help but look at the door, although the girl named Song Qian had already left.
The reason why Liu Xiyun paid so much attention was still due to what Xiaochen said to her. She still clearly remembered that when Xiaochen chatted with her after she returned to the company a day ago, he mentioned Song Qian's admiration and worship, and praised the girl's dancing skills as being invincible in the company.
"I heard from the dance teacher that she won the first place in Kyoto City's modern dance. She is also very good at folk dance and has won many awards. By the way, she is also good at many other dances. I saw her dancing HIPHOP, which was amazing."
"I heard that the company specially went to Korea to recruit her. I heard that she is about to become the leader of a girl idol group that is about to debut. However, our company is famous enough. After hearing that it was Huayi, she terminated the contract and returned to China. Everyone said that she has been designated as the captain of the group."
It was this ‘predetermined captain’ that deeply stimulated Liu Xiyun.
Liu Xiyun was not afraid of strength. She originally intended to give up the huge popularity she had gained from Super Girl and chose to practice quietly in the company for more than a year, just to make up for her shortcomings and debut with a stronger appearance.
Facts have proved that her choice was correct. The artists who signed with her at the beginning did not make much splash after being arranged by the company to debut. Instead, they kept contacting her quietly and gained a lot. In Liu Xiyun’s view, the company’s new girl group is also a very ambitious plan.
By participating in this girl group, Liu Xiyun will get back what she has lost over the years, and will gain more.
And her progress in more than a year of hard work is obvious, so even if Xiaochen praised Song Qian like a big devil, Liu Xiyun did not think she would lose much to her. Moreover, if she is not good at dancing, she can sing. Among the A-level trainees who are currently expected to debut, Liu Xiyun’s singing skills can be ranked in the top three, and only this girl next to her can steadily suppress her.
It can be said that although she has not received any promise from the company, Liu Xiyun believes that she will definitely become one of the candidates for the company's new girl group.
She is not the kind of trainee who is on the verge of elimination due to lack of strength, but the best among the best.
However, Liu Xiyun cannot ignore the fact that the captain is appointed internally, because this is also her goal.
After all, the position of captain is the most important thing that cannot be ignored in an idol group. As long as you get the position of captain, your debut will not be less concerned. Some public speeches are generally answered by the captain. Although the responsibility is great, you also get a lot.
In addition, she has always been the oldest girl among this group of trainees, so she has always regarded the position of captain as her own.
But unexpectedly, the appearance of Song Qian made all this change.
So she has a certain hostility towards this girl who suddenly appeared. At least under the premise of not confirming the captain's candidate, Liu Xiyun has already regarded Song Qian as the last opponent to be defeated on her way out.
Just when Liu Xiyun wanted to ask Xiaochen more about Song Qian, she heard footsteps outside the door, and then saw that all the friends who had gone to other practice rooms to chat had returned, including Song Qian who had just left, and now hurried back to the practice room.
Following closely behind was the person in charge of Huayi practice room. As soon as this big boss in the eyes of the practice room entered the room, he immediately announced: "Everyone cheer up, Mr. Nie may come to our place this afternoon, you must give your best performance, understand?"
Hearing the words of the person in charge, all the girls' eyes lit up instantly.
