Chapter 6

During the final exam, Qiao Qiu didn't work in the store, and Likert also thoughtfully didn't go to school to disturb him.

After the exam, there will be a relatively long winter vacation, including the Spring Festival.Jiang Zhanxin has no relatives, but he hardly goes home during the Spring Festival, as if he is busy with other things.

Qiao Qiu was also bored staying there, so he returned to the cold drink shop.But the female shopkeeper said with a little apology that there were no students attending classes during the winter vacation, so she didn't open the door.

Qiao Qiu was greatly disappointed.He didn't go to university before, and he spent almost all his winter vacation reviewing.He was very afraid that Jiang Zhan would think that he was a student who didn't work hard and didn't know how to make progress.But now, he doesn't know what to do.

Hesitating, Qiao begged to use his home phone to call Likert's cell phone.Likert was very noisy, he asked with his tongue out, "Hello? Who is it?"

Qiao Qiu paused and said, "I'm Qiao Qiu..."

"Qiao Qiu? What is it?"

Qiao Qiu was at a loss for a while, and slowly said: "I am an employee of the cold drink shop in University City."

Likert's tone suddenly changed, becoming what Qiao Qiu was familiar with. He said, "Hey! My hero. What's your name? Qiao Qiu?"

"Well. I... come to tell you that I'm on winter vacation."

"I know, I know," Likert said, "I'm having dinner with the crew right now. You... ah, do you want to come over and eat?"

"...?"

"Let's just get to know each other in advance," Likert said, patting his forehead with his hand, "I forgot that you are very shy. Well, I'll tell you after dinner."

Qiao Qiu looked around, and then said to Likert: "Where are you now?"

Likert reported a place name.

Qiao Qiu paused and said, "Can I go?"

"Of course," Likert said in surprise, "come here."

Qiao Qiu rode a bicycle to the hotel.It was a small restaurant with a dirty sign. Likert and another fat man who didn't know who he was were standing at the door waiting for Qiao Qiu.

After drinking, his face was a little red. Seeing Qiao Qiu smiled happily, he said to the fat man, "How is it? Is this man... Jiang Yang?"

Jiang Yang is the name of the hero in "The Four Contracts".

The fat man looked Qiao Qiu up and down and gave him a thumbs up.

Likert led Qiao Qiu into the private room of the restaurant.There were about 20 people in the private room. Even though it was winter, the room was still very hot. Qiao Qiu blushed. He didn't know if it was hot, but he felt a little embarrassed to be looked at by so many people.

A girl in a red sweater stood up from her seat, looked at Qiao Qiu, said a few words to Likert in dialect, and then laughed out loud.

Qiao Qiu later found out that it was a makeup artist.There are a total of 25 and six people in this crew, all of whom are from Likert's hometown. They seem to be classmates who graduated from the same university. After graduation, they came here to work hard with Likert.Their team can't get a job, their life is relatively difficult, and they have never made a movie. After a long time, they have other occupations.

It seems that only Likert is left, still chasing his dream.

And when the crew heard that Likert was looking for a good actor, everyone put down their work and started to help Likert get sponsors together.

"They are all good friends, good friends." The woman in the red sweater patted Qiao Qiu's shoulder vigorously and shouted, "Waiter! Add a pair of bowls and chopsticks!"

Seeing the enthusiasm of the crew, Qiao Qiu no longer restrained himself, sat at the dining table and began to eat.Because Qiao Qiu couldn't understand Likert's native dialect, the crew spoke in Mandarin when they talked.They were also talking about the script, and the more they talked, the more they got into it, and they were all arguing red-faced.

Qiao Qiu always felt that Likert was unreliable.

Now that I think about it, it's not.

Sometimes people who have known each other for a few years can just forget it, and sometimes it only takes a meal for acquaintances.

Since then, Likert's crew has completely regarded Qiao Qiu as one of their own, and Qiao Qiu is called at any gathering of the crew.

Sometimes the party was at night, and Qiao Qiu went back late, so Jiang Zhanxin didn't ask him where he went.

On the last night before school started, Jiang Zhanxin stood aside and watched Qiao Qiu pack his things. After being quiet for a while, he suddenly asked, "Little Qiao, have you got a girlfriend yet?"

The room was originally quiet, but a sudden sound startled Qiao Qiu, his hand shook, and he almost threw the lunch box out.

"No." Joe replied.

"You don't have to lie to me."

Qiao Qiu was puzzled and said, "No."

Jiang Zhanxin seemed to be convinced, looked straight at Qiao Qiu, and asked, "After having a girlfriend, is the money still enough?"

"Really not," Qiao Qiu couldn't help laughing, and after zipping the bag, he said, "Why should I lie to you?"

Jiang Zhanxin crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame, feeling very upset.

He has the feeling that the flowers he raises are being pushed by pigs.

Qiao asked to know that Jiang Zhanxin wanted to ask himself who he was going to have dinner with at night, but he really didn't want to tell him.He was very afraid that Jiang Zhan would think that he was not doing his job properly.

Because Qiao Qiu himself felt that he was 'not doing his job properly'.

How long does it take for a TV series to find a good investment?

Anyway, after Qiao Qiu promised to make a TV series during the winter vacation, there was no response until the summer vacation approached.

Likert still ran to the small shop to ask Joe for a show when he had time.It's just that because of the hot summer, there are more and more people in the cold drink shop, and there are some things that can't be said to outsiders. Likert couldn't say three words after waiting for two hours, scratching his head in anxiety.

Later, Liketra invested more desperately, and stopped going in and out of small shops as frequently as before.

In the first half of the semester, things are no longer as busy as they were at the beginning of school.When the summer vacation was one month away, Likert came to the cold drink shop in a hurry and said to Qiao Qiu, "It's done! Qiao Qiu, it's done."

He was so happy that his face was flushed and his fingers were trembling.

"What's the matter?" Qiao Qiu quickly made a snow top, before he could insert a straw for the girl, he turned to look at Likert.

The girl who was treated perfunctorily was also not angry, and left holding her companion's hand.

Seeing that no one was around, Likert took out a thick stack of A4 paper-sized things from his arms, handed it to Qiao Qiu, and said: "This is the script, please remember to keep it secret, and don't show it to others. You Prepare in advance, and we will start working when you are on summer vacation."

Qiao Qiu was also very happy and asked, "Are the funds ready?"

"No problem," Likert was so excited that he looked like he was about to suffer from asthma, and gestured an 'OK' gesture towards Qiao Qiu tremblingly, "Work will start during the summer vacation. Tell your family, At that time, we will go out to film a movie, we will live and eat outside, and it will probably take a month or two months."

Qiao Qiu was taken aback for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Okay."

He felt that Jiang Zhanxin would not care about himself.

The weather was hot, and Likert was sweating all over. Qiao Qiu handed him a glass of ice water. He wiped it off, and said to Qiao Qiu, "If you work hard... I think you will become popular."

Qiao Qiu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I just want to play."

This sentence is the truth, he has no intention of filming all the time, he just thinks that Likert's crew is very...

It was warm and gave him a feeling of wanting to blend in.

Of course, he also wants to make money.

Likert patted Qiao Qiu on the shoulder and said, "Come to the studio tomorrow. Let's make a contract first, and then pay part of the film. I'll tell you about acting."

Qiao Qiu nodded and asked, "Apart from me, who are the other actors?"

Likert opened his eyes wide, his forehead lines appeared, and said:

"You are the main character."

"..."

"Others, investors will try their best to squeeze people in, so you don't have to worry about it at all." Likert smiled.

"..."

Qiao Qiu pursed his lips and looked at Likert worriedly, thinking that this director is really unreliable.
