Chapter 400
She seems to have not changed, but also seems to have changed a lot
The end of the universe is Pingban, Ling Suisui now has a deeper understanding of this sentence.
In order to convince Tang Bing, she gave up all the methods that could distinguish the order of surnames by pinyin, strokes, etc., and instead chose the true method of distinguishing the names in which the names appear in front in turn.
This time her reasons were very sufficient - Tang Bing said that the ranking should be based on the role, and Ling Suisui said that her reasons went a step further, that actors should not care too much about the ranking, and equal ranking would nip the dispute in the bud.
Teacher Tang, if you refuse to compromise on the ranking plan, you will be suspected of being a big shot and unwilling to share the same ranking with the younger actors!
Tang Bing didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. Where did Ling Suisui learn this kind of Spring and Autumn style of writing and the ability to confuse right and wrong?
Ling Sui, who had his ears pulled by the teacher, said that this was thanks to marketing accounts, gossip forums and various entertainment groups. (The above rankings are in no particular order)
The names of the leading actors of "Trio" appear in turn at the front, and the order of the first official announcement is determined by drawing lots.
Ling Sui took great pains and finally resolved the ranking dispute. Upon learning of this, Ji Zhaoying teased her and said congratulations to her for having a more complete experience in the entertainment industry.
Ling Suisui: ...
Well, I hope this experience will be the last in her acting career.
After Zhang Wen's coordination, "Invincible Warrior" moved her joining time forward a few days. Although the overall impact is not significant, it can allow Ling Sui to experience one less extreme journey.
Before leaving, Xia Tian invited her to dinner, but there were more than just the two of them dining together.
Xia Tian said to her very honestly: "Hou Yuanfeng asked several people to find me. I owed a favor to her friend's friend before. This time, asking you out is to help me pay it back."
"No problem." Ling Suisui agreed immediately, "I'm also quite interested in Hou Yuanfeng."
"Ying Nian is coming too."
Xia Tian paused, then said, "But he is just shamelessly doing it."
Ling Suisui: "...We are all acquaintances, if he wants to come, let him come."
She and Ying Nian haven't seen each other for a long time. Even if the other party asked her out directly, she would not refuse, but it had to be when she was free and wanted to go out.
Xia Tian decided to set the meeting place at a private restaurant, which only received these few guests at noon.
Ling Sui had never been here before, so Xia Tian went to the door to pick her up. When the two of them walked into the box, Hou Yuanfeng and Ying Nian immediately ended their awkward conversation and stood up at the same time.
"Teacher Ling!"
"Sui... Suisui."
Compared to Hou Yuanfeng's excitement, Ying Nian's performance seemed a little restrained, even nervous. If you ignore the ways they address each other, it would be hard to tell who is Ling Sui's old friend.
Ling Suisui first smiled at Ying Nian who was standing farther away as a greeting, and then shook hands with Hou Yuanfeng who was walking towards her.
"Teacher Ling, I finally meet you." Hou Yuanfeng grabbed her hand and shook it vigorously a few times, "I have watched all your works and I like all your characters! Ying Nian and I were just talking about Li Xiang."
Ling Suisui was a little surprised, as Ying Nian did have a rival role with her in "Under the Wave" - although it was a reshoot.
However, when talking about her intersection with Ying Nian, most people will think of "Ding Feng Bo" and Qin Xian, and then the brother and sister Li Xiang and Li Tian.
This made her believe that Hou Yuanfeng had indeed read her works, at least she had definitely seen "Under the Wave".
"I am also very interested in Director Hou's works."
Ling Suisui politely withdrew his hand: "Let's sit down first. Do you want to order food or wait for the chef to come?"
Xia Tian replied: "Chinese omakase, we cook whatever ingredients are available in the restaurant. I have already told the chef about your dietary restrictions."
Ling Sui nodded, and she was assured that Xia Tian would make the arrangements.
When it comes to eating, drinking and having fun, no one in her circle of friends is better than her.
Four people sat at a table, and there was no emphasis on host or guest seats. Ling Suisui chose the nearest seat and sat down.
Hou Yuanfeng followed closely behind. Ying Nian originally wanted to sit on the other side of Ling Suisui, but under Xia Tian's gaze, he consciously sat opposite Ling Suisui.
This location is also good, Yingnian thought.
He didn't need to adjust the angle, he just needed to look up to see Ling Suisui. She is in very good condition, with a rosy and shiny face. Her long-term fitness habit seems to have retained the collagen in her face.
Time flies, her face seems to have not changed much, but also seems to have changed a lot.
Probably no one will use words like "delicate" or "weak" to describe Ling Sui anymore. The heroic spirit between her brows is like a sword that can be unsheathed at any time to kill anyone who stands in her way.
Ying Nian inexplicably thought that if Qin Xian was trapped again, she might not have to wait for him to rescue her.
She would cut the enemy's throat, the blood would stain her hands red, her hairpin would turn into a long sword, and she would kill many people in the enemy camp...
Qin Xian's figure overlaps with many people, sometimes it is Wuyou, sometimes it is Li Mo, and sometimes it is Fei Guang. Sometimes—he didn’t know either.
"Ying Nian?"
When Ying Nian heard Ling Suisui calling him, his hands trembled and the chopsticks that were picking up the cold dish fell.
Only then did he realize that Ling Suisui had been talking to him, but he was in a daze and didn't hear it.
"What are you thinking about?" Ling Suisui waved his hand in front of him. "Is it the script for the new play? You are thinking about it so intently."
Having laid such a foundation, Ying Nian of course nodded.
Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that he is not as dedicated as Ling Suisui imagined?
Xia Tian glanced at him, but was very considerate and didn't expose him.
Hou Yuanfeng has already talked about how she also wants to join Ling Suisui in supporting female screenwriters and directors, and has also expressed her willingness to pay.
This was well-intentioned, and Ling Sui thanked her, but from an implementation perspective, she could not accept Hou Yuanfeng's money, otherwise it would likely cause unnecessary trouble for both parties. If Hou Yuanfeng was interested, it would be easier to set up a scholarship at an art school than to give her money directly.
In fact, this is also one of the things Ling Suisui is going to do next. She graduated from the Film Academy, so her first choice would definitely be to give back to her alma mater. Hou Yuanfeng and she are not alumni, so she can do it on her own, or do it with Hou Lekang.
Hou Yuanfeng scratched his head: "But the scholarships are for students, right? Many people won't do this after graduation."
"I just need a list of the scholarships so that I can track their movements later."
The film and television industry has always lacked top talent, but for ordinary people, it is indeed difficult to find a job that suits their taste and can support themselves. Ling Sui can fully understand why most graduates change their careers.
She wants to meet more "Yan Silings", preferably before they are forced to give up their film and television careers due to the reality of their livelihood. After all, if Yan Siling and Meng Yu hadn't had some complicated relationship, the two would never have had the chance to meet.
The scholarship is Ling Sui's way of casting a wider net, and this kind of financial aid that starts from the student days, even if it is not a timely help, should at least be considered as "meeting in the humble days".
Of course, this is Ling Sui's psychological activity, so there is no need to tell Hou Yuanfeng.
After listening to her explanation, Hou Yuanfeng suddenly understood.
She was very excited, yet a little shy. After all, Ling Suisui's status is already there. If she returns to the Film Academy to establish a scholarship, the students who are awarded will definitely feel honored, but she is not considered a big director yet... Wouldn't it make people feel that she is too immodest and too arrogant?
"You are the one who pays, what are you afraid of?"
Ling Suisui patted her hand comfortingly: "You are a European three-award-winning director, and you are still so young. The school will be proud of you."
When this was mentioned, Hou Yuanfeng's joy immediately showed on his face. If she had a tail, it would probably be wagging to the sky by now.
The food for lunch was excellent and all four of us were very satisfied.
Before the show ended, Hou Yuanfeng plucked up the courage to invite Ling Suisui to act in his new play.
...As expected, it was rejected.
Yan Siling can do it, but not everyone has Yan Siling's talent and good luck.
"I just don't have time." Ling Suisui explained to her, "Dyland has a lot of movies, you know the IP universe...plus my own company has a movie. We may have a chance to work together again in the future."
Although this was just polite talk, Hou Yuanfeng still listened very seriously.
Alas, if they could really cooperate in the future, she couldn’t imagine how happy she would be.
Hou Yuanfeng left first, followed closely by Ling Suisui.
After she got in the car, Xia Tian asked Ying Nian, "What on earth did you come here for today? You said you wanted to see Sui Sui, but you didn't even say a few words."
Ying Nian lowered his head and said sadly, "I don't know."
Of course he likes and loves Ling Sui very much. If she is in danger at this moment, he will definitely rush to the front regardless of his own safety, even at the cost of his life, to protect her from harm.
He will definitely do it, and no one can stop him from giving everything for Ling Suisui.
But, but...
Ying Nian couldn't help but ask Xia Tian: "Do you think I'll be the kind of actor who can't get out of a role after being immersed in it for more than ten years?"
Xia Tian rolled his eyes and said, "Don't promote this kind of personality. It makes me want to vomit."
Year: ...
"You'd better stop talking." He said weakly, "I'm afraid that if your upper and lower lips touch, you will poison yourself to death."
Xia Tian sat in the driving seat neatly, started the car in one go, and ignored him.
Ying Nian sat in the passenger seat, looking at the scenery receding outside the window and listening to the lyrical music in the headphones. His eyes felt inexplicably sore.
He raised his head and Xia Tian looked at him again.
Xia Tian: "500 for taking photos, 5,000 for recording videos, and 50,000 for making a video call with Ling Suisui and pretending to accidentally capture you crying."
Year: ...
Five hundred thousand dollars, can you buy her to shut up for the next two hours?
