Chapter 6 The Fallen Child Star 6
"Aren't you going to leave after the contract is terminated?" Yao Rong asked. She thought that Xu Weiheng would agree to leave with her only after the contract was terminated smoothly.
Xu Weiheng shook his head.
He didn't want to stay in City A and live in this apartment anymore.
Starting over in a new city might be a good choice.
Yao Rong responded decisively: "I'll book the ticket now."
Xu Weiheng took the initiative to ask her to go back to City D, which was good news for her.
This meant that he was beginning to build trust in her again.
Moreover, Xu Weiheng's mood was still unstable and his condition was still very bad. If he stayed in City A, he would be easily stimulated again. Although the economy of City D is not developed, the environment is very good and suitable for recuperation.
After booking the ticket, Xu Weiheng began to pack his luggage, and Yao Rong helped him beside him.
Xu Weiheng did not let her help: "You go and have a rest. I don't have much stuff. I can do it myself."
Yao Rong did not insist any more and went back to the house to count her savings.
She has a three-story self-built house in the vicinity of the small county town of D City.
She converted the house into a B&B. She lives on the first floor, and the second and third floors are rented out.
She has been living on the B&B business for these years.
However, there is only one not-so-famous scenic spot in the small county town of D City, and there are not many tourists. In a year, the profit of the B&B is not high.
In addition, she spent a lot of money to renovate the B&B at the beginning of this year, and now she doesn't have much savings.
Not as much as her underage son.
Thinking of this, Yao Rong opened the laptop aside. This was borrowed from Xu Weiheng.
Using the computer, Yao Rong read ten lines at a glance and began to browse various information.
The general development trend of this world is similar to that of the Earth she has been to, but there are still certain deviations in the specific development levels such as economy, politics, history and technology. For example, none of the people on Earth who can be named exist here.
After watching for a long time, Yao Rong gradually got an idea.
Combining the experience and reading experience of her body, as well as Xu Weiheng's own situation, the most suitable career for her is actually some career with low entry threshold and high degree of freedom.
This career can make money and realize her self-worth in life, and it would be best if it could also help Xu Weiheng.
So what should I do?
Yao Rong was entangled.
It's not because there is no room for choice, on the contrary, she has too many choices, so she hesitates.
Suddenly, a pop-up window popped up in the lower right corner of the computer - [Congratulations to "2050Ⅱ" for breaking 400 million in total box office]
As of today, "2050Ⅱ" has been released for half a month, but the total box office has just exceeded 400 million.
This movie cost 300 million to shoot, plus the subsequent various publicity and promotion costs, the cost is at least 400 million.
Now this box office seems to be higher than the cost of the movie, but a movie needs to be shared with theaters and others after it is released. For
a movie to make a profit, the box office must be at least three times the investment.
It can be said that the investors of "2050Ⅱ" lost all their money.
No wonder Director Chen and others are in a hurry to push Xu Weiheng out to take the blame.
The blame was really heavy, and whoever took the blame would be finished. They were unwilling to take the blame, so they naturally chose a little star who had no background and no agency to back him up.
Now Xu Weiheng's agent had to face compensation and unemployment, and the agency had to face Thor's Hammer from the State Administration of Taxation. The only people who had framed Xu Weiheng were Xu Yiyuan's family and the "2050Ⅱ" crew.
It was not difficult to deal with Xu Yiyuan's family, but the "2050Ⅱ" crew...
The movie spoke for itself with its quality.
After a moment's hesitation, Yao Rong opened the file and typed a book title on the first line:
"Starry Sky"
She decided that she would become a science fiction writer.
Those magnificent and wonderful technologies, those deepest explorations of technology by human beings, exist only in the imagination of people in this world, but they are what she has witnessed, experienced, and even developed herself.
She doesn't even need to make up or fabricate, she only needs to describe these contents clearly to construct a grand science fiction universe.
When the time is right in the future, she will choose to find someone to invest in a doomsday disaster movie.
She will tell Director Chen and the audience with facts that the failure of "2050Ⅱ" is because of the incompetent director, because the special effects are not well done, and because the script itself is very bad, rather than blaming an actor who is not even the leading actor.
***
Time flies, Yao Rong just finished the idea of the novel, and the day of the plane's take-off arrived.
Lawyer Zhou had something to discuss with Xu Weiheng, and after the discussion, he sent Yao Rong and Xu Weiheng to the airport.
The car drove into the airport, and Lawyer Zhou helped to take out the luggage from the trunk of the car: "Just leave the termination of the contract to me, you can wait for the news in City D, don't worry."
Xu Weiheng asked: "How long will it take to get the result?"
"If it's fast, there should be news in one or two months."
After getting a definite answer, Xu Weiheng thanked Lawyer Zhou and walked into the airport with Yao Rong.
While checking in the luggage, the flashlight of a passenger in the front row suddenly flashed. No one else paid attention, but Xu Weiheng pursed his lips and pressed the duckbill cap on his head down heavily. The wide brim almost covered his eyes.
Yao Rong asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
Xu Weiheng was originally wearing a large mask, and now he pressed the brim so low that his entire face was almost covered.
Xu Weiheng shook his head: "Adjust your hat."
The flash came on again, and it was the same passenger.
Xu Weiheng tensed up his body reflexively, and when the flash passed, his muscles slowly relaxed.
Yao Rong realized what was wrong.
Was he afraid of the camera?
Following this thought, Yao Rong suddenly realized that she had lived with Xu Weiheng for more than half a month, and during this time, she had never seen Xu Weiheng play with his mobile phone.
Not even once.
Logically speaking, a teenager of his age would be the most addicted to playing with his mobile phone. But he would rather sit and stare blankly for a whole day, or watch "SpongeBob" for a whole day, and never thought of using electronic products to kill time.
Yao Rong rummaged through the luggage bag, took out a can of Wangzai milk from it, and handed it to Xu Weiheng: "I almost forgot that I bought this for you."
Xu Weiheng rubbed his nose with the back of his finger. It felt a little weird to drink Wangzai milk in public.
Yao Rong opened it directly: "Drink it quickly, you can't take this on the plane."
Xu Weiheng was silent.
He touched the hat on his head, the mask covering most of his face, and the raised collar, and comforted himself: It's okay, no one can recognize him anyway.
Thinking of this, Xu Weiheng reached out to take the Wangzai milk, pulled down the mask, lowered his eyes and drank it. He looked serious, gentle and well-behaved, just an ordinary sixteen-year-old high school student.
Yao Rong touched the mobile phone in his pocket, thinking about how to change this.
Xu Weiheng was afraid of the camera and deliberately cut off his channels to receive information from the outside world.
But he was originally a star who lived in the camera and in public opinion.
Can escape really solve the problem?
How can people living in this information society completely reject information from the outside world?
***
The several boarding gates around each belong to a single airline. There are not many flights departing from this point, so after waiting in line for a while, Yao Rong and Xu Weiheng completed the formalities.
Yao Rong did not book a business class ticket, but only the most ordinary economy class.
Her seat and Xu Weiheng's seat were connected, relatively close to the middle.
A couple sat diagonally in front of them. The man looked to be in his thirties, and the girl looked like she had just graduated from college. The two were acting intimately. The girl kept resting her head on the man's shoulder and whispering, her face full of sweetness and shyness.
Xu Weiheng glanced at them and then retracted his gaze, closing his eyes to rest.
He suffered from insomnia again last night, and only managed to fall asleep at dawn, and now he could just make up for his sleep.
The plane took off quickly, and after a period of turbulence, it began to operate smoothly.
Passengers were walking to the toilet one after another. Xu Weiheng was a light sleeper and was woken up by them. He rubbed his eyebrows with his fingertips and was about to go back to sleep when he suddenly heard a noise from the seat in front of him.
A blonde woman with pearl earrings and short hair stood in the middle of the corridor, almost unable to suppress her anger: "Who is this girl? Well, I was wondering why you suddenly had to go to City D on a business trip. It turns out you were going to relax with your lover! If I hadn't noticed something was wrong and followed you, how long would you have fooled me!"
The girl leaning sweetly on the man's shoulder heard something was wrong. She bit her lower lip, grabbed the man's arm and asked him: "She... who is she?"
The man's eyes widened, his face full of panic as if he had been caught on the spot. He subconsciously pulled away the girl's hand holding him, unbuckled his seat belt and stood up to pull the blonde woman.
His voice was very soft, and Xu Weiheng could only vaguely hear some key words.
"... Stop it... There are so many people... We are on the plane..."
"This little girl is my colleague who is on a business trip with me. She just fell asleep and rested her head on my shoulder..."
The flight attendant in the back row seemed to have noticed the movement here and walked over quickly.
The attention of other people around was also attracted. They looked at the man and the blonde woman who were arguing and whispered to each other.
The blonde woman sneered: "Colleague? It has come to this, and you still treat me as a fool? Let's get a divorce after we get off the plane!"
"You are crazy, aren't you afraid of embarrassment? What about our son? He is still so young. You want to divorce me, have you ever thought about what to do with him in the future!"
The man couldn't hold back his face, and he pushed the blonde woman with force.
At this moment, the plane suddenly experienced a moment of turbulence due to the change of air flow.
The blonde woman was already staggering due to being pushed, and coupled with the sudden turbulence, her body was unstable and she fell backwards violently.
Just when she was about to fall, a hand reached out from behind to support her.
"Be careful."
It was Xu Weiheng.
The blonde woman used the force to stand up, thanked Xu Weiheng repeatedly, and turned away her red eyes.
The plane had resumed its smooth operation. Xu Weiheng sat in his seat, looking at the man coldly.
He heard the argument of these people at the beginning, but he didn't even have the mind to gossip. He always stayed out of it and closed his eyes to sleep. It was not until he heard the man mentioned his son that he opened his eyes in disgust.
Seeing that the man was actually going to lay hands on his first wife, this touched Xu Weiheng's bottom line.
The man's face and Xu Ji's face seemed to overlap gradually.
Xu Weiheng had a nameless anger burning in his heart.
Ever since he knew that Xu Ji and Xu Yiyuan were biological father and son, this anger had been burning in his heart, and now it finally broke out.
"I have always felt that the biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can control their desires, while animals cannot control their lower body."
"You want to be successful outside and keep your family happy at home. It's a beautiful thought, but when things happen, what else can you do except tearing your lover's hand away, pushing down your wife, and threatening your son?!"
"Don't say that your son is still young, and don't act like you love your son very much. Your wife did nothing wrong. If you really love your son, why would you put him in such an embarrassing situation?"
"Is this your responsibility as a husband and a father!?"
He was able to control his voice in the previous words.
But in the last sentence, he couldn't help but raised his voice. After
a low shout, Xu Weiheng realized his loss of composure.
He looked at the flight attendant who had just arrived and pursed his lips.
"You..." The man was out of breath after being scolded by Xu Weiheng, and cursed, "Who are you?"
"An ordinary enthusiastic member of the public." After saying this, Xu Weiheng lowered the brim of his hat and sat back in his seat, not wanting to cause trouble for the flight attendant.
The blonde woman bowed to Xu Weiheng and thanked him. At the stewardess's advice, she returned to her seat.
Suddenly, a crisp slap silenced the noise on the plane.
The man covered his swollen face and looked at his lover who had always obeyed him in everything, in disbelief.
"Scumbag! This brother is right, you don't take any responsibility at all!" The girl was so angry that her whole body was shaking. "When something happens, you only know how to shirk responsibility. How could I be so blind as to fall in love with a man like you, and you still say you are unmarried and single, bah!"
After scolding the scumbag severely, the girl looked at the stewardess and politely asked the stewardess to help her change seats.
A drama of the original wife tearing the cheating man apart turned into three parties joining forces to tear the cheating man apart, and the onlookers were stunned.
Xu Weiheng no longer paid attention to those people. He noticed that many people around him were looking at him. He simply pulled the brim of his hat down to the lowest point and pulled the mask up to the bridge of his nose.
He was about to close his eyes when Yao Rong beside him suddenly clapped his hands.
The others woke up as if from a dream and applauded Xu Weiheng.
Xu Weiheng looked at Yao Rong.
Yao Rong praised: "Those words just now were very well said." They
were really very well said.
So well that it made her a little sad.
Everyone thought Xu Weiheng was scolding this man, but only Yao Rong knew why he was venting.
Xu Weiheng didn't say much, just hummed softly.
When he was about to fall asleep, Yao Rong put an earphone in his ear.
There was light music with a cheerful melody playing in it.
Xu Weiheng hesitated and didn't pull out the earphone.
Listening to the light and gentle melody, Xu Weiheng's tightly wrinkled eyebrows gradually relaxed, and he finally fell into a deep sleep, and did not open his eyes until the plane landed smoothly.
As soon as they got off the plane, Yao Rong and Xu Weiheng were stopped by the flight attendant, who asked them to move and cooperate with the air police to take some notes.
While Yao Rong and Xu Weiheng were taking notes, a video quickly became popular on the Internet.
[Tao Tiantian v: The original wife and the "mistress" teamed up to tear up the scumbag on the plane, and the enthusiastic people in City A spoke up for justice] The person
who posted the video is a beauty blogger with millions of fans on Weibo.
If Yao Rong and Xu Weiheng knew about this, they would find out that the beauty blogger named "Tao Tiantian" was the passenger who accidentally turned on the flashlight while queuing to check in her luggage and took selfies.
She was on the same flight as Yao Rong and the others, and her seat was not far from them.
When the argument just happened, she was very sensitive to the fact that something was wrong, and she took out her mobile phone early, recorded the whole thing, and posted it on her Weibo account.
[After watching it, wow, I didn't expect this reversal]
[That slap made me feel good]
[emmmm, tie up the scumbag and the mistress to death]
[Yes, that woman looks weak and fragile, and she looks like a green tea]
[??? No, I think the video clearly shows that the girl is a mistress and she immediately made a clear distinction with the scumbag. Being cheated by a scumbag is bad enough, but she still needs to be criticized. It shouldn’t be that serious.]
In response to this issue, many netizens cursed at each other.
But mixed in with these curses, there are also some comments about Xu Weiheng.
[Who is this little brother? He looks so tall and thin, with a good demeanor and temperament.]
[Woo woo woo As a sound control, I like his voice so much. He sounds very young. Is he not yet an adult? In three seconds, I want all the information about this little brother! 】
【I am dying of laughter. What the hell are the enthusiastic people in City A? I have failed to learn this. I will introduce myself to others in this way in the future】
As more and more big Vs and marketing accounts reposted this video, the ranking of this video on Weibo's hot search continued to rise.
More and more people saw the video.
Some netizens realized that something was wrong.
[Who is this little brother? His cap is pulled down so low, his mask is worn so tightly, and his coat collar is standing up. This is too much coverage. This is the most that celebrities can do when they go out.]
[I don’t know why, but I always feel that he looks familiar.]
[+1, I always think he looks a bit like Xu Weiheng.]
[Are you kidding? Haha, Xu Weiheng stuttered so much when he apologized that he could only say "I'm sorry". Do you believe he can say such a clear sentence? ? ?]
[That's right, Xu Weiheng is already cold, but he is still making trouble here?]
However, at 10 o'clock in the evening, when the popularity of this hot search began to decline,
the editor-in-chief of the A City Daily forwarded this video and publicly thanked Xu Weiheng on Weibo.
