The next day, Zhou Yiyang got up early and went to the bookstore. Fortunately, it was still open.
Because Su Yin still had to go for rehearsal with Jiang Yang, she had to suppress her curiosity and focus on work.
Zhou Yiyang was really afraid that this bookstore would be like some Internet celebrity stores, closing at any time depending on the owner's mood.
As soon as Zhou Yiyang stepped into the bookstore, the strange owner popped his head out.
The other party's speed was so fast that Zhou Yiyang almost suspected that this person had placed a surveillance camera outside the door and was actually hiding underneath and watching secretly.
"Hello." Based on Su Yin's description, Zhou Yiyang had already formed a preconceived notion of the boss's self-portrait in his mind. So, upon seeing him in person, he wasn't surprised at all.
The boss glanced at Zhou Yiyang, then curled up the corners of his mouth, his eyes rolling rapidly, looking at Zhou Yiyang with great surprise.
"We have a rare guest in our store!"
After saying that, he stood up rashly and closed the door.
The whole process took less than a minute, and Zhou Yiyang was stunned.
Sure enough, what the four of them said was right, this person was very strange.
At this time, the boss straightened his back, and unexpectedly, he was only a little shorter than Zhou Yiyang.
Before, he always hunched over, giving people the illusion that he was very short.
"You actually know me." Zhou Yiyang looked at the person in front of him. He did not find that sense of déjà vu on this man.
"Of course," the boss thoughtfully pulled a stool over for Zhou Yiyang. His attitude towards Zhou Yiyang was completely different from his attitude towards Yue Shao. "You're a renowned director and boss, Mr. Zhou Yiyang. Your smile is on every promotional poster in our little town."
Zhou Yiyang nodded awkwardly. He should have stuck to his opinion and not put his face on the poster.
"Mr. Zhou," the boss said, like a dying flower that suddenly came to life after a long drought. A spark of life appeared in his eyes again. "I'm your fan!"
Fans... Well, Zhou Yiyang is still very calm about the fact that he has fans.
He nodded. "So the annotations on those books were actually written by you?"
"Yes." The boss admitted it without hesitation. "I remember now, those four people are artists under your management, so those four books have come into your hands. This is really fate!"
Zhou Yiyang, who still hadn't figured out the situation, gave a dry laugh. He really didn't know the identity of this man.
Perhaps, I am just one of his more enthusiastic fans.
However, thinking of his insights into acting and directing, Zhou Yiyang felt that the other party should be an actor, or someone in the industry.
"Have I seen you in a movie before?" Zhou Yiyang used Su Yin's words here. He felt more and more that Su Yin must have seen a movie, and this person happened to be in it.
The boss was stunned at first, then burst into laughter.
After he had laughed enough, the man stood up and nodded. "Mr. Zhou, I didn't expect you still remember me. You must have seen countless movies!"
Zhou Yiyang felt embarrassed after hearing this and simply admitted, "Actually, it wasn't me, it was my artist. One of the four girls who saw you yesterday recognized you."
The boss nodded without surprise, it seemed that he must have known this for a long time.
"That's the girl who kept staring at me yesterday, right? Um, I remember her name is Su Yin." The boss smiled and said, "I've seen his movies too, and we both worked for the same director."
I didn't expect the other party to confess so quickly.
Zhou Yiyang touched his chin and guessed the identity of this person almost instantly.
He should have been the male lead or supporting actor of Zhang Yingyuan.
"Mr. Zhou should have guessed it. It's indeed Director Zhang." The boss wiped his face with his hand and said helplessly, "Hey, if I had known you were coming, I would definitely go wash my face."
"That's not necessary." Zhou Yiyang looked at him and said, "So why did you... change your career?"
"Mr. Zhou, do you think I'm down and out right now?" The boss stretched and said nonchalantly, "I just lost myself for a while and forgot why I became an actor, so I chose to take a break. Who knew that this break would last almost ten years?"
Ten years... "That's a really long time." Zhou Yiyang said seriously, "But I read what you wrote, and it actually makes a lot of sense. It seems you are very talented. You must have been learning all along during these ten years."
"Yes, I read almost every book on actors available on the market. Then I tried out many roles: I was a homeless person who knew nothing. I once begged on the street for three months. I was a migrant worker. I worked on a construction site and even injured my back."
He leaned close to Zhou Yiyang's ear with a smile and whispered, "I used to be a gigolo. Tsk tsk tsk, those rich ladies really know how to have fun!"
…
Zhou Yiyang took a long time to speak and said, "You have a lot of experience."
"Yes, as an actor, you have to play all kinds of people in society. But you have never seen this kind of person, how can you play it well?"
This is the truth, but it is too difficult to do it to his extent.
"No wonder the things you wrote are so thoughtful. You are indeed looking for answers from life." Zhou Yiyang said with a smile.
The boss shook his head: "Hey, people like me are just talking about it on paper at best. Who knows what it would be like to actually act in a movie? Besides, who would want me to act now?"
