Qiao Yiyi walked out of the elevator dejectedly. She was so preoccupied with filming that she didn't pay attention to where she was going.
She bumped into something hard head-on. She looked up and met a pair of beautiful eyes, looking at her in a daze.
It’s He Yao!
Qiao Yiyi jumped away quickly like a cat. She did not forget that He Yao had a problem with close contact, especially with women.
However, because the movement was too large and his center of gravity was unstable, he staggered backwards.
The elevator door was closing at that moment, and if she fell down like that, she would definitely be trapped by the door.
But at this moment, He Yao grabbed her hand and pulled her back.
"Phew, that was a close call."
Qiao Yiyi touched her chest, almost thinking that she was going to put the saying "my head was stuck in the door" into practice with her own actions.
Then she realized that it was He Yao who saved her, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Teacher He Yao!"
He Yao looked at Qiao Yiyi with a faint expression. Seeing that she was standing far away from him, the smile on her face was very tense, as if he was some kind of monster. She was even quietly keeping her distance when he was looking at her.
He Yao: “…”
He couldn't help but frowned, but said calmly: "It's okay."
Then he pressed the elevator door button and walked in. The moment the elevator door closed, he seemed to see Qiao Yiyi's relieved expression.
Is it his illusion?
Why did he feel like Qiao Yiyi was deliberately avoiding him...
He Yao: This is not an illusion.
Qiao Yiyi really was deliberately avoiding contact with him.
Although she always kept in mind the task assigned to her by the Fan Alliance, she also did not forget what Baomei told her that He Yao's fans were as powerful as rocket launchers.
In such a public place, there might be He Yao's fans waiting outside the hall. I don't know if the scene just now was captured.
She didn't mean it, she really didn't mean it.
She did have "bad intentions" toward He Yao, but she never considered getting intimate with him. After all, He Yao is known to suffer from intimacy disorder, which, in severe cases, can even cause physical discomfort and fainting. Therefore, no matter how much his fans love him, they are sensible enough to keep their distance from him.
She must have had her head caught in the door that she rushed into doing such a wicked thing.
He Yao went upstairs and Brother Bin came in flipping through some documents.
He raised his head and exclaimed, "Why are you so gloomy? Who has provoked you?"
He Yao didn't say anything. He sat on the sofa, looking out the window, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long while, he suddenly said, "Am I scary?"
Brother Bin couldn't help laughing, put the information in front of him, and said in a scolding tone: "You're not scary, you're just autistic."
Fortunately, his fans buy into this. The colder his brother is, the more they love him. Otherwise, he would really be worried about this guy.
As expected, when God closes a door for you, he will open a window for you.
Although He Yao has close contact disorder, his acting skills are impeccable.
Whenever he gets into a role, it's like he was born for it.
Many directors say that he is a talented actor who was born for acting.
But Brother Bin knew that only by immersing himself in the role and becoming another person could he forget himself and not be affected by those problems.
"Oh right." Brother Bin suddenly remembered something. "Old Xie from 'Phoenix Road' just called and said he wants you to go to the crew and give a talk to some young actors about the play. He wanted to ask if you'd like to."
He Yao was reading the information Brother Bin had given him about the drama "Phoenix Road" without even looking up. "What do you think?"
Brother Bin: "I think we should go. After all, our studio has invested in this drama. We don't want it to flop because of poor acting from the actors. Also, if we want to go it alone, it won't hurt to build good relationships with some directors and actors in advance."
He Yao happened to see Qiao Yiyi's name in the actor information column. When he heard Brother Bin say this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
…
Because the lease of this house is about to expire, and the owner of the new house is also asking when we can move there.
Qiao Yiyi thought about it and decided to move this weekend, the sooner the better.
She is now almost worried to death about filming.
There are many fans of the original novel of "Phoenix Road". Fans have been paying attention to the news of film and television adaptations. When they heard that "Phoenix Road" was going to start filming and some cast lists were leaked, the Internet immediately exploded.
[Is the director team trying to ruin their own reputation? Why not invite Qiao Yiyi?]
I'm just asking Qiao Yiyi if she has any acting skills. She only has a few expressions throughout the entire show. If you didn't know her, you'd think she had facial paralysis!
She's also often late, laughs during scenes, and has no respect for the crew. Do any of the directors she's worked with still want to film with her?
[@Director Xie Zhen, I advise you not to ruin your own reputation.]
[Qiao Yiyi also advises you to just do some commercials and appear on variety shows. Find your niche and don't ruin the goodwill you've worked so hard to build up recently.]
My Tang Yuan, my destined girl, I wrote in blood on the official Weibo account to boycott Qiao Yiyi.
[Yes, I strongly urge the director to change the actor before they start filming. Maybe there is still a chance.]
The editor in charge of the operation of the official Weibo of "Phoenix Journey" saw the overwhelming private messages from netizens asking Tang Yuan to change her role. He didn't know how to deal with it for a while and could only report the situation to the operations director.
Operations Director Dai Rong couldn't figure out Director Xie Zhen's idea. Xie Zhen never liked using traffic stars, and he didn't know what was wrong with him to choose Qiao Yiyi as the second female lead.
He made a phone call to sound out Xie Zhen and said, "Look at the comments online, everyone is asking you to change your role."
Xie Zhen said in a nonchalant tone: "If they ask me to change, I will change."
"No, I just don't understand why you chose someone with no acting skills."
"There are so many things you don't understand."
Dai Rong felt like he couldn't talk to this guy, he was such a stubborn old man: "Just wait till you regret it. Don't let the show flop and people scold you, blaming us for poor marketing and promotion."
Qiao Yiyi naturally saw these comments, and she once again tentatively asked Zhao Anna: "Why not just push it away."
She doesn't want to be pelted with rotten eggs by book fans.
Zhao Anna said with a tone of dismay, "Qiao Yiyi, what are you thinking? How many chances do you have to meet such a great team and act opposite so many outstanding actors? Do you really plan to just shoot commercials and participate in obscure variety shows for the rest of your life, without any work to show for yourself?"
Qiao Yiyi: "Not really, just..."
Zhao Anna interrupted her: "Don't dither about this or that. You're about to finish recording "Voice of Charm". I don't plan to accept too many announcements for you after this. Just join the crew and hone your skills in it."
Qiao Yiyi was in tears.
Oh, heaven and earth, why is it so difficult to be a salted fish?
She just wanted to live a quiet life until she paid off the compensation and retired from the entertainment industry, so why is she still allowed to film a movie?
Feeling melancholy, Qiao Yiyi was called by the crew to take the final makeup photos.
The drama is still in the early stages of preparation, and the crew plans to take the final makeup photos first, and then post them online for some warm-up.
Qiao Yiyi rushed to the studio and just as she pushed open the door of the dressing room, she felt that the atmosphere was wrong. Many pairs of eyes were looking at her at the same time, with surprise, a hint of disdain and ridicule, and a hint of subtle hostility and dissatisfaction in their eyes.
That's right, most of these actors are professionally trained, and even the worst ones have worked in the crew for a long time. Unlike Qiao Yiyi, she has no background and no acting skills, and she just relies on her ability to become a hot topic.
I really don't know what Director Xie saw in her, risking such a huge risk and facing netizens' abuse to let her play the second female lead.
There is an unwritten chain of contempt in the entertainment industry——
People who make movies don't look down on people who act in TV dramas.
Those who act in TV dramas look down on those who participate in variety shows.
Those who participate in variety shows look down on traffic stars, especially idols who came from talent shows.
And traffic artists look down on internet celebrities...
Qiao Yiyi is the kind of variety show star and traffic star that they look down upon, and she is also the kind that is surrounded by negative news.
Although her reputation has improved recently, it cannot change the impression of her in their minds.
Qiao Yiyi felt uncomfortable with all these stares, so she had no choice but to greet everyone. As expected, she received everyone's expressionless and indifferent responses.
Fortunately, the stylist came over and pulled her away in time, rescuing her from this awkward atmosphere.
"Sister Yiyi, today's styling is quite complicated. We have several sets of stills to shoot. This may take up quite a bit of your time. Please understand."
The stylist knew that Qiao Yiyi was a difficult person, so he gave her a heads-up in advance.
Qiao Yiyi quickly said, "It's okay, do whatever you want."
Anyway, Zhao Anna has received fewer notices recently, and the thing she has the most is time. As long as she can rush home in the evening to take care of the dough, it will be fine.
The stylist narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Just your words will do!"
Qiao Yiyi sat on the chair, letting the stylist fiddle with her while looking through the mirror at the various antique jewelry placed on the dressing table - gorgeous red hairpins, exquisite hairpin flowers, and tassels of step-shaking ornaments that sparkled yet had a heavy texture.
Seeing this, she remembered what she had read online: Director Xie Zhen had extremely strict requirements on costumes and props, especially clothes and jewelry, and he tried his best to restore them, so sometimes he would even spend a lot of money to buy "real things".
The quality of his dramas is very good. Putting aside the plot and actors, the pictures alone are pleasing to the eye.
Two stylists, one did her facial contouring and the other did her hair braiding.
The lady who braids the hair keeps exclaiming: "Sister Yiyi's hair is so thick, black and shiny. How do you take care of it?"
Speaking of this, Qiao Yiyi has something to talk about again.
Before traveling through time, when she was a corporate slave, there was a period of time when she was too busy with work and had an irregular schedule, and her hair fell out in clumps. Finally, she successfully kept up with the pace of the times and became a bald girl.
One day she looked at herself in the mirror and felt extremely sad. She began to study the art of hair growth and hair care.
It really worked.
Although she had no use for it in this world, adhering to the principle that one only knows how to cherish something after losing it, Qiao Yiyi cherished her current hair very much and brought all her old hair here.
She earnestly shared her experience with the hair braiding lady: "In addition to choosing the right shampoo for your hair, you should also pay attention to the technique when washing your hair... And in terms of diet, you can eat black sesame seeds, walnuts, black rice, and other foods high in protein, which are all very good for your hair."
When the hair braiding lady heard this, she quickly asked her if she had any shampoo recommendations.
The contouring lady who had been silent the whole time became interested when she heard this. Even the male stylists who were styling other artists and had receding hairlines pricked up their ears.
Qiao Yiyi then recommended several affordable brands.
The hair-braiding lady said happily: "Sister Yiyi, you are so kind!"
She thought all celebrities used expensive skin care products.
I didn’t expect Qiao Yiyi to be so down-to-earth!
They even talked about health preservation, how to live comfortably, and how to avoid being passed on anxiety and PUA themselves.
Several girls have been severely rubbed since entering the society. Which one has not been scolded by the boss or bullied by difficult customers?
Hearing Qiao Yiyi say this, I felt like I had found a spiritual resonance.
It turns out that celebrities also have these troubles!
The dressing room, which was originally filled with awkward atmosphere, became lively because of Qiao Yiyi's presence.
The stylists who had been indifferent to Qiao Yiyi since she entered the door now became enthusiastic.
They all want to make Qiao Yiyi look beautiful and dress her in all kinds of ways!
Finally, a female artist couldn't stand it anymore, and snorted, "This is the first time I've seen someone describe being a waste in such a refreshing and refined way."
Qiao Yiyi: “…”
