Reflection

The location shooting in the afternoon went smoothly as expected. The assistant director asked Xia Cen to explain the core content of the next two scenes. After three days of shooting, Xia Cen's scenes were all wrapped up.

Seeing her listening carefully, the assistant director took out the electronic notepad, "Xia Cen, do you want to continue with the group or go back to school?"

"If I go back, do I need to come back again?" Xia Cen said while flipping through the script, and roughly calculated the time when the crew would finish filming so as to prepare.

"No need for this, please remember to give me your Weibo ID later, there will be some publicity arrangements after the finale, and someone will notify you of these." After the assistant director explained, he confirmed his phone number with Xia Cen, and asked again , "So are you going to continue with the group or go back to school?"

"Senior sister has already gone back, I should go back too."

The assistant director nodded and finished recording, looked up at Xia Cen's young and energetic appearance, and asked with a smile: "How is it, are you still used to working with the group for the first time? Are you ready for this kind of work day and night?"

"Who makes me like it, no matter how tired I am, I still enjoy it."

"Young people should be like this. Alright, I will arrange a car to take you to the airport after you wrap up. I have nothing to do today, so go back and have a good rest." The assistant director turned around and left in a hurry. The busiest figure on the staff.

As soon as the assistant director left, Xiao Guang came to meet him. It was obvious that Xia Cen could see some doubts in his eyes, and the source of the doubts was Shen Qing.

"Good afternoon." Xia Cen stepped forward to greet him politely.

Through Xia Cen's natural reaction, Xiao Guang didn't feel anything wrong, so he put down his wild thoughts, smiled handsomely, and looked around, "Why are you alone, where is your senior sister?"

Xia Cen's smile deepened, "Her family went back earlier, brother Xiaoguang has something to do with senior sister?"

"It's all right, I just feel that you are inseparable on weekdays, and now that you are alone, I am worried that you will not adapt to the environment here." Gentleman Xiao Guang smiled, and asked with concern: "By the way, how did you go back last night? It's so late, how unsafe you are as a girl."

"Yesterday?" Xia Cen thought for a while, then shook his head, "I don't even remember it myself. I woke up this morning and was in the hotel of the film crew. Fortunately, nothing happened. Thank you Brother Xiaoguang for your concern."

"I didn't call you brother for nothing. It's normal to care about you. After all, you've only come into contact with this circle. As a senior, I naturally have to take care of you. If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me directly. Don't be polite to me. "Xiao Guang narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully sizing Xia Cen's pure facial features, and his tall figure really looks better the more he looks at it, but this kind of secret appreciation was interrupted by Weng Yunqi who passed by in the distance, and said with a smile: "I There is something else, go back early."

Looking at the back of the hurriedly leaving, the corners of the mouth that were originally smiling gradually returned to calm. I really don't know why Ni Xian signed such a guy, but when I think about Xiao Guang's background, it is probably related to Zhishang Entertainment.

The short stay allowed her to immerse herself in the surrounding environment. The assistant director yelled at the staff to speed up the set. The jingling sound was the installation of the camera track, the universal wheels rubbed against the ground, and the assistant costumer pushed the costume back and forth. Busy, the director and the assistant director are discussing the shooting content for a while.

They are like watches on the wrist, the actor is the logo and diamonds, the director is the pointer, and these people are the internal mechanical parts, all of which are indispensable.

Tick ​​tock, tock tock.

It turns out that I love this voice so much, and I love acting so much.

I can't help feeling in my heart, it's good to be alive again.

"Xia Cen." The voice appeared not far behind her, interrupting her immersion.

"Hello, I am." Xia Cen turned around and looked at this person, feeling a little familiar.

"My name is Xu Wei, and this is my business card."

After receiving the business card, she recognized the person in front of her. A few years ago, Xu Wei was still in the agent training class, and now he is an intern agent of Zhishang Entertainment.

Supreme Entertainment is a leading film and television company in China, and the annual dramas are basically produced here, and Wantian Entertainment is affiliated to Supreme Entertainment, so it is not surprising that there is a manager of Supreme Entertainment here.Although it was rumored that Ni Xian chose to retreat behind the scenes due to public opinion, her father Ni Tian wanted to take this opportunity to hand over the future of the company to his daughter. Wantian Entertainment was the best springboard.

"Hello, Xia Cen." Xia Cen responded politely.

Xu Wei pushed down his glasses, the reaction was way too different than expected!When a normal newcomer sees Zhishang's manager, don't they all go around in circles excitedly?She is like this?

"May I ask if you have anything to do with me?" Seeing that Xu Wei was in a daze, Xia Cen asked again.

"I want to make an appointment to talk to you about...the future development." Xu Wei showed the mysterious posture of the manager, "Nine o'clock tonight..."

"I'm sorry." Before Xu Wei could finish speaking, Xia Cen interrupted him, "I already have an appointment tonight, and in the next two days I have to prepare for the finale scene. I have a lot of preparations. Shall I invite you to drink tea after I finish the filming?"

No matter who it is, the mood of being rejected will be a little frustrated and embarrassing, but for men, the more individual women are, the more interesting they are.

"Or else, if you are free tonight, call me."

Looking at Xu Wei who is not very smart, I really want to remind him that finding someone in Ni Xian's crew is equivalent to breaking ground on Tai Sui's head, but detours are also roads, Xia Cen smiled and said: "Okay."

……

After following the car back to the hotel arranged by the crew, Xia Cen fell directly on the soft bed, staring at the ceiling of the hotel, sober until dark.

Until she heard the knock on the door, Xia Cen stared at the door coldly, took out her phone and turned it off calmly, the knock on the door lasted for a minute, she lay on the bed watching and listening with steady breathing, without any reaction.

"Fuck." A rough voice.

Hearing this voice, Xia Cen closed his eyes in disappointment. It was indeed the man who handed him his business card three hours ago.

The nice phone rang outside the door, and Xu Wei made sure that there was no one in the room, so he connected the phone without any scruples, and said in a very polite tone, "Hello Assistant Lin... yes yes yes... I know I know... don't worry... ...I will definitely find a good person for Mr. Wang's dinner tonight, don't worry, they are all newcomers, one is prettier than the other, I will call now to arrange, and I must be at the club before ten o'clock in the evening, okay, you hang up first. "

The neon light from outside the window shone on Xia Cen's cold and quiet face. Xu Wei made a few more phone calls after that. After he left completely, Xia Cen got up from the bed and quietly walked into the bathroom. bath.

The reason why she knew about such a complicated and direct relationship was because she heard about it from other newcomers after she became famous.I was a little surprised at the time, but understood in an instant.In this era of countless handsome men and beautiful women, more and more people want to enter the entertainment industry.

And these business owners just grasped their needs for this meal, and made choices through unprincipled brokers.But this kind of relationship is like Party A and Party B. Party A will always only choose and never give up, but Party B will slowly fall into the abyss if he gives up once, and cannot get out.

After taking a shower, Xia Cen raised his hand to wipe his face, walked barefoot to the half-length mirror, wiped off the moisture and stared at himself in the mirror.

A wry smile.

It's because she doesn't know whether she can make a living in the short time of avoiding these unspoken rules.

This is really involuntary.

……

Xia Cen, who was finished, returned to school with the thousands of dollars paid by the crew. During this period, Xu Wei had not looked for her, and he could see that Xia Cen was hiding from him on purpose. , may be signed into Wantian, and will be entangled for a while.

Summer vacation is approaching, Xia Cen specially went to the mall to buy formal clothes. She planned to go to work during the summer vacation, and the location was chosen a long time ago.

So on the first day of the holiday, all the students went home, traveled or participated in performances. Only Xia Cen wore formal clothes and went to a cafe to work part-time.

This cafe is located across the street from Crescent Bay Apartment, and the people living here are either rich or noble, so working here has to go through layers of screening, not only has strict external requirements, but also can speak fluent English.These are not difficult for Xia Cen. In her previous life, she studied hard for two years in order to develop abroad, so it is not difficult to deal with them.

People who come here to work have their own goals, and Xia Cen is no exception.Her purpose was very clear, she wanted to meet someone, someone who always brought her here.

As expected, Xia Cen saw Ni Xian on the third day of working here.

Ni Xian, who retreated behind the scenes, dressed more and more professionally, giving Xia Cen a sense of rapid maturity.She sat by the window with her back to herself, and ordered a cup of black coffee as usual, looking at the occasional cars and people passing by outside the window, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Sister Wang, I'll take it over." Xia Cen volunteered.

"Okay, this cup of black coffee is ordered by the window at the back, take it." Sister Wang handed the tray to Xia Cen.

Xia Cen took the tray and said with a smile, "Okay, I see."

Sister Wang looked at the well-behaved Xia Cen, liked it very much, and coughed lightly, "The one at table NO.19 will be delivered to you by the way."

"Ok."

Looking at Ni Xian's back, Xia Cen got closer and closer, and suddenly slowed down after taking a few steps.This feeling is really strange, at this moment it is like Xia Cen himself, approaching the idol step by step with the mood of a fan.

After calming down with breathing for a while, Xia Cen came to Ni Xian, "Hello, excuse me, this is the black coffee you ordered, please take it slowly."

In a daze, Ni Xian raised his eyebrows and looked at the waiter. Before thanking him, he narrowed his eyes slightly, "...it's you."

Being able to be recognized by Ni Xian at a glance, Xia Cen was very happy in his heart, but he couldn't immediately express his surprise.

"...me?" Xia Cen hesitated for a while, his eyes lit up, and he said in a low voice, "Sister Ni, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"It seems that we are quite destined." After Ni Xian finished speaking, he smiled and picked up the coffee cup and stopped in mid-air because of the two bear-shaped cookies on the tray.

——"Why do you drink black coffee all the time? It's not good for your skin. Isn't life hard enough? Ask for trouble."

——"I drink coffee to refresh myself. How can there be so many principles in life? Sister Ling Xin, you are so cute."

——"Cute? Wouldn't it be cuter this way." Wei Lingxin said and put two bear-shaped cookies, "Just eat it and mix it with bitterness."

"This biscuit..."

"Huh? I bought the biscuits at the convenience store downstairs. I think the black coffee is too bitter. I'll make my own decision... If you don't like it..."

"It turns out that these biscuits are sold downstairs. I never knew about it." Ni Xian picked up the biscuit, looked at his eyes slightly red, took a deep breath and said, "Thank you, I like it very much, thank you... "

Xia Cen frowned slightly, seeing how sad she was, but who would really believe that Wei Lingxin was still alive?

Speaking out will only be regarded as a lunatic, or a liar.

"Xia Cen, the coffee at table NO.19 is ready."

Xia Cen regained his expression after hearing this, and said with a smile, "It's just as long as you like it, take it easy."

Ni Xian's attention was all on the biscuits, and he didn't know Xia Cen's departure.

After Xia Cen finished his work, he looked at the seat by the window. There was only the white coffee cup with lip prints on the table, and the two bear-shaped cookies were all eaten.

……

The summer vacation passed quickly. Although they only met three times after working here for a month, it was enough for Xia Cen.

Today is Xia Cen's last day of work here, and tomorrow is the first day of his sophomore year.

Unexpectedly, they would meet again, Ni Xian still sat at the old seat and ordered a cup of black coffee, Xia Cen prepared Bear's cookies as usual.

He thought that the two of them would not communicate, but Xia Cen heard Ni Xian's voice.

"Will everyone prepare this cookie?"

Xia Cen shook his head, "When I ordered black coffee, I personally felt that it was too bitter, but not many people ordered it, and there were still some left."

"Don't you like black coffee too?" Seeing her nodding, Ni Xian saw a flash of warmth in her eyes, "School starts tomorrow?"

Xia Cen naturally recognized the meaning contained in the word Ye, and pursed her lower lip, "Well, I'm a sophomore."

Ni Xian took a sip of coffee, looked at Xia Cen and smiled faintly, "I watched the edited film these days, and you acted very well."

Although it is a bit strange to get Ni Xian's compliment, the relationship seems to be one step closer, "Thank you."

"What role do you think you are suitable for?"

This topic was asked suddenly, Xia Cen held the tray, and answered honestly, "I'm just a sophomore, and I don't know what role I'm suitable for. If I want to say what I like, the role that is both good and evil has more room to play."

"Your camera sense is very good, but this road is not easy to walk, are you mentally prepared?"

Wei Lingxin also said the same thing to Ni Xian, and Xia Cen, who was already clear-eyed, was even brighter, and smiled tacitly, "I like acting very much."

Ni Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, looked back at the two bear biscuits, "Go to work."

"Well, take it easy."

……

On the first day of the sophomore year, the class teacher distributed this year's learning tasks and content, but when the meeting was over, Xia Cen received a contract handed to him by the class teacher.

It was two months later that he participated in Wantian Entertainment's new drama "The Legend of Wu Mei".

The author has something to say: There is communication.

There is progress.

There is an interaction.
