4. Chapter 4
Jin Qiaodong was probably determined to get the TV series done, and he didn't even return home with them. He said he wanted to stay here for a few more days to finalize the contract details.
Cheng Shangen didn't care at all. She didn't have any demands and felt relieved to leave everything to Jin Qiaodong. So she returned to the country with Cheng Lanxia without any hesitation and had a good sleep.
During the period when Jin Qiaodong was negotiating the contract, she had no schedule. She was also bored so she logged into her Weibo which had not been active for a long time. She then posted two selfies. She had to give her fans some information that she was coming back.
After sending it, Cheng Shangen ignored it and went downstairs to have breakfast.
Today was a rare day when all four members of the family were present and sat together to eat breakfast. Of course, the main reason was that Cheng Shangen finally stopped staying in bed. Her parents and her brother ate together every day. . .
"Hey, where did this south wind come from today? It actually woke up people who usually sleep like dead pigs?" Cheng Nanyiyi started teasing when he saw his sister coming down wearing Pikachu pajamas.
"Who is the dead pig?!" Cheng Shangen glared at him.
Cheng Nanyi said with a playful smile: "Whoever answers will be the one to speak."
Who could have thought that Cheng Shangen was going to be pissed off to death by him? ! The overbearing president who is cold and taciturn in the eyes of outsiders and is described by netizens as taciturn and expressionless is actually a poisonous tongue! He's such a sharp-tongued person that really deserves a beating! Cheng Shangen really wanted to knock open his big pig head to see what was wrong with him to say the word "dead pig" in front of his sister's beautiful face!
"Enough, you just make fun of your sister! I finally got up and now you're the one who brought me back!" Shen Yuqiu put the plate on the table and glared at Cheng Nanyi.
Cheng Shangen acted like a spoiled brat whenever she got the chance. She stepped forward and hugged Shen Yuqiu's arm and said, "That's right, I don't know how anyone would call their own sister a dead pig!"
Where Shen Yuqiu couldn't see, Cheng Shangen made a provocative face at Cheng Nanyiyi.
Shen Yuqiu patted her precious daughter's head and couldn't bear to blame her: "You, you should get up earlier too. Look, you are the only one in the family who stays in bed."
Cheng Hengfeng was already accustomed to the noise in the morning as he read the morning newspaper while his wife was seeking justice for their noisy son and daughter. They were all happy.
Cheng Nanyi snorted coldly: "You forgot to bring my gift when you came back from playing outside, and now you dare to make faces at me?"
Here she comes again. Her brother is struggling with this issue again. But Cheng Shangen is also guilty. She saw that her parents' gifts were good on the first day, but because things suddenly became more complicated in the next few days, she forgot about her brother... It's not a big deal that she forgot, she also lied to him...
I still remember that day was an exciting gift-giving session. I gave away gifts from my parents and even Aunt Liu. Cheng Nanyi stood by with eager eyes, not waiting for his own.
Cheng Shangen was also panicked. She glanced at the corner of the suitcase and saw the signed Big Bang album that Cheng Lanxia gave her. She might have lost her mind, but she just happily handed it over.
Cheng Nanyiyi's face turned green when he saw the photos of five strange men in the album.
In the end, Cheng Shangen was full of nonsense, saying, "This is the best concert I've ever been to. Brother, don't you like music too? I think
I thought their music was pretty good, I queued for hours and spent a lot of money to beat a lot of people to buy it. I finally got it back.
Cheng Nanyi thought that his sister was quite thoughtful. He was not very satisfied with the gift at first, but now he was happy about it. So he happily posted it on his private space. Unexpectedly, Cheng Lanxia exposed him on the spot: "Hey, isn't this a gift from me to my sister? How did it end up in your hands, cousin?"
In the end, Cheng Shangen had no choice but to admit her mistake. Cheng Nan was so angry that he spoke coldly to her for several days.
The family of four began to sit down to eat. Cheng Shangen had already received a message from Jin Qiaodong, saying that the matter had been settled and he would join the crew in a few days. Of course, they had to go to Japan and South Korea for the joint filming. Cheng Shangen thought that today would be a good opportunity to talk to his parents about it.
"By the way, Sister Jin just found me a job. We're going to be filming in Japan and South Korea and I might be joining the crew in two days." Cheng Shangen said after taking a sip of soy milk.
Cheng Hengfeng glanced at her and asked, "Have you really decided to enter this circle?"
Cheng's parents have always respected their daughter's career choices. After all, no matter where she lives, they can always keep their daughter happy.
Cheng Shangen nodded: "I have discussed it with Sister Jin. I plan to do this job well in the future. Acting is also very interesting."
She really likes the feeling of figuring out a character and then acting her out.
Shen Yuqiu was very interested: "Japan and Korea? Are you going to shoot a Japanese drama or a Korean drama?"
Cheng Shangen thought for a moment and said, "It's a joint production between Japan and South Korea. It seems to be adapted from a novel."
Shen Yuqiu covered her mouth and looked at Cheng Shangen: "Oh my? Is mom going to see our Eunnie in a Korean drama? Oh my god! Who's the partner? Who's the male lead? Hyun Bin or Kimura Takuya???"
Cheng Shangen looked helpless. Her mother was a fan of Korean dramas. She remembered that she had already thought of her name, but after she got pregnant, she became obsessed with Korean dramas and changed her name to Cheng Shangen. As a result, when she told others her name, they would ask, "Are you Korean?"
"The heroine I play is from Japan, and the hero will probably be from South Korea, and he should be a newcomer." Cheng Shangen smiled.
"So you're going to Korea to film?" Cheng Nanyiyi, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked.
Cheng Shangen nodded: "Yes, I should fly to Japan. It seems that Sister Jin wants me to go to Japan and South Korea for a tour."
Cheng Nanyi frowned: "Isn't there enough dancing for you in China? You're still an 18th-tier artist at home and you're thinking of running away?"
Cheng Shangen snorted: "I am as beautiful as a flower, so how can I not benefit from it?"
Cheng Nanyi was amused by her cocky look: "Where do you live then?"
Cheng Shangen took a bite of the dough stick and said, "I don't know. The crew should be able to arrange a hotel for them."
"Do you want to buy a house?" Cheng Nanyi said generously: "I might want to develop there for a while first. It's not convenient to stay in a hotel all the time."
Cheng Hengfeng and Shen Yuqiu also agreed with Cheng Nanyi's statement: "Indeed, Enni, let's buy you a house there. Korea is such a small place that you can go home anywhere. This way it is convenient. It's just right for you and Xiaodong to live together."
Cheng Shangen thought about it and felt that it was indeed very troublesome. After all, the hotel was not hers and many things would be inconvenient. So she ordered
Nodding: "Alright, then you have to take care of it for me, I'll just take care of the place, haha."
Cheng Shangen looked at him with a firm gaze before he could explode: "I will definitely not forget to bring you a gift this time! Double!"
Cheng Nanyi was almost laughing at her: "A house in exchange for a gift from you? You are so precious, Cheng Shangen, you are getting more and more shameless."
Cheng Shangen stuck out his tongue and said, "My feelings are different. After all, you are my best brother who is the most handsome in the universe. I support you just like Cheng Lanxia supports Quan Zhilong. I will cheer for you until my voice is hoarse!"
Cheng Nanyi looked at her with caring eyes for the mentally retarded. She felt that she had become a lot smarter after her trip to Japan. Was she infected by Cheng Lanxia?
After dinner, the Cheng father and son went to work. Shen Yuqiu made an appointment with her sisters to go to the beauty salon. Cheng Shangen went upstairs and opened Weibo to see how his selfie was received.
Such a long time has passed, and an 18th-tier star is still an 18th-tier star, with only a few hundred comments, some of which are crying that she is finally back in business, and some are flattering her in various ways.
After reading for a while out of boredom, Cheng Shangen put down her phone and picked up the genuine copy of "Between You and Me" sent to her by Jin Qiaodong. Japanese and Korean adapted novels have never made major changes and are very faithful to the original works, so it is still necessary to study the original works.
The morning passed quietly, and Cheng Shangen had already read the book roughly and knew the plot.
Japanese girl Yuye Matsuda had an argument with her father because her dream of becoming a rock singer was not supported, so she saved money to escape from Japan. She wanted to go to her sister who was married to South Korea. Unexpectedly, the gentle sister who encouraged her on the phone turned out to be a completely different person in reality. She often laughed at and ridiculed her dreams, and her life in her husband's house was not easy. The girl who had good grades but was not bound by the world and was silently admired by Yuye had already been smoothed over by life.
When Matsuda Ikuya was desperate and wanted to end her life hastily, she received help from Han Yunxi, a Korean guitarist in an underground rock band and fell madly in love with him. She and Han Yunxi agreed that one day they would stand together on the Tokyo Dome and perform in front of 50,000 people. During this period, the two fell in love.
The good times didn't last long. Yu Ye suddenly received a notice that his father was seriously ill and a huge rift appeared in the relationship between his sister and brother-in-law. Yu Ye could only find comfort in Han Yunxi, but unfortunately she found out that he was just a substitute. Han Yunxi originally liked the female bassist who had retired from the group. Yu Ye was disheartened and returned to Japan to take care of his father's old age.
After his father passed away, Yuye met Han Yunxi again in Japan. The high-spirited young man had joined the gang because of debt. In a gunfight, Yuye died to protect him. Han Yunxi committed suicide by burning charcoal at home the next day after realizing their common dream, holding Yuye's photo in his arms.
Cheng Shangen burst into tears when he saw the ending. It was too cruel. No one survived. However, Cheng Shangen still had a good feeling about this novel.
She is looking forward to playing the role of Matsuda Ikuno, who dares to pursue her dreams and pursue her love at all costs. At the same time, she has her own nobleness and stubbornness. Her two encounters with Han Yunxi are in completely different states. This role will definitely be interesting to interpret.
Cheng Shangen was also moved by the lines in the film.
"Tokyo Dome! One day we will step on Tokyo Dome and wave our light sticks in front of 50,000 spectators. When that happens, I will definitely shout: say rock!!!"
Between you and me, I live for you and die for you.
