Chapter 32: Present

The story of "Heart of the Ocean" is about the actor who performs the human-whale dance in the oceanarium, and gradually falls in love with this angelic species in the process of getting along with the beluga whales, and starts to run around for the protection of the beluga whales, and after a lot of hardships, finally makes the United Nations legislation to protect the wild beluga whales.

The human-whale dance is called "Heart of the Ocean", named after the two performers who pose with the beluga whale in the shape of a heart at the end of the show.

Tao Tao plays the female protagonist who works in the oceanarium, Qingyuan Feng plays the male protagonist, whose persona is a marine biologist with a family of mine.

At the same time, this is Tao Tao's first starring role as the female lead. After the review, "Heart of the Sea" will be broadcast on local stations in non-prime time.

Qingyuan Feng, 35 years old, comes from the central theater, and has good roots. Acting skills, virtues, can be said to be the mainstay of the middle generation of actors, personality is also very elegant, gentle.

Xingchen Qi looked at the script and the cast synopsis, the whole person is not very good.

In the original book, the play was a career turnaround for the female lead.

In order to learn how to dance with whales, Tao Tao went into the water again and again, choked, and even got up from the ground after accidentally drowning to continue her training. The director was so moved by her dedication to her art that he personally cut a film for her.

It is also this film, so the netizens finally know that there is a pure and beautiful second-line flower in the entertainment industry, which laid the foundation for her to go to the first line.

Meanwhile, the emotional line, the male lead in the "Heart of the Ocean" crew location to shoot the new song music video, midway to visit the director, just in time to encounter the female lead diving again and again scene.

Naturally, the male lead also shares the director's appreciation for the female lead.

Of course, no matter how the heroine is upgraded, it has nothing to do with Xingchen Qi. As a friend who has been together for a month and a half, Xingchen Qi hopes she will get better and better.

But this episode has something to do with the Qi family!

It was during this play that Jiaze Qi fulfilled his mission as cannon fodder!

" Xingchen Qi?" Seeing that he was staring at the script, Lanxin Du reached out to him and shook his hand in front of his eyes twice, "What are you thinking about?

"...... Well," Xingchen Qi responded perfunctorily, "finished reading it."

"Good, this drama I got you is the third male number. The upper star drama male third is generally useful for enhancing popularity, but it is helpful for enhancing the national degree, you just rose a wave of powder, you need to use the work to fix the powder."

"Thank you," Xingchen Qi pressed her brow, "I know."

.

Heart of the Sea" will start shooting in three days, and Xingchen Qi has a full schedule, so the director decided to let him join the set in a week.

On the way home from the office, Xingchen Qi tapped Yunfei Zhang by WeChat: [Yunfei brother, busy?

Yunfei Zhang is probably in the middle of filming, half an hour later to reply: [okay, what's the matter say]

Xing Xing : [Recommend me a few textbooks to learn acting]

Yunfei Zhang: [We Xing Xing to be strong?

Xingchen Qi and Yunfei Zhang joked around a bit and then received the names of a few books.

Yunfei Zhang is also from the science class, the recommended things are right. Xingchen Qi asked Qin to stop at the bookstore and buy them all, then got off at the entrance of the next neighborhood and continued walking home.

The book is in the back of my hand, and I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

" Xing Xing is back, how did the interview go?"

Xingchen Qi said, "It went well," and returned to his room with his book after a few words of explanation.

Watching his back walk away, Yuji Qi muttered, "Dad, do you think Xing Xing is in a bad mood, as if he has something on his mind?"

"I can see, the boy, hey," Qi father sighed, "maybe his mother's mourning day is approaching, and misses his mother again."

"Then how can I make him happy?" Yuji Qi blinked his eyes, " Xing Xing has changed a lot, with a new person like, more mature and understanding than before, and not so easy to coax. I used to know what he was missing and what he wanted when I saw his eyes, but now ......"

She frowned slightly: "Now it seems to want nothing, but rather make me more heartbroken."

"Either ......" Qi's father suggested, "Either I'll try it, and you get Old Sun to help me prepare the car."

.

Unbeknownst to Qi's family, they were worried about Xing Xing's unhappiness, while Xing Xing was worried about their lives.

He remembered why Jiaze Qi became the fodder - as a rising actress, Tao Tao didn't have much time to look after her younger brother Xuan Tao, and transferred him to a boarding school, the same school Jiaze Qi attended.

Jiaze Qi is bad-tempered, who messed with him are no good fruit to eat. In addition to handsome, good family, placed in the campus text is a proper school bully.

And so the story goes.

Xuan Tao was beaten up by Jiaze Qi and put in the hospital because he didn't know what had angered Jiaze Qi. Tao Tao and the director took time off to go to the hospital to care for his brother, the director was very angry and sent out a tweet that insinuated school violence, which the male lead helped to retweet.

So Jiaze Qi was picked up by the fabulous netizens, net violence, sending wreaths, harassing phone calls and other operations in succession.

In the end, Jiaze Qi couldn't take it anymore, and when she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, she drove her car into Xuan Tao.

Xuan Tao is fine, he himself died a horrible death and was the first to enter the cemetery.

Presumably to enhance the sense of fun, the author also wrote out the reactions of netizens after they learned of Jiaze Qi's death.

Summed up in eight big words: the cycle of karma and retribution.

When I first read this paragraph, Xingchen Qi and the author thought the same. School violence is so bad that the victim may be under the shadow for the rest of her life, and the perpetrator is not enough to die.

But thinking about Jiaze Qi's attitude towards his classmates yesterday, Xingchen Qi was a little confused.

Is his brother really that bad, so bad that he can beat people up and put them in the hospital?

Is it possible to try to guide it?

He skimmed through the script while figuring out how to guide Jiaze Qi. Then he opened the book recommended by Yunfei Zhang and watched until dinner was almost ready.

Rubbing his eyes, he was ready to rest for a while before continuing to read, when he suddenly remembered that he hadn't gotten close to the male lead today.

It's just as well that the morning's WeChat didn't return, so he could continue talking. He took his phone and typed: [Sorry, I've been busy this morning, but I'm only free now. It's already late at night over there, right?

Washington and Beijing time difference of thirteen hours, now 5:00 pm, then the male side should be 4:00 am.

After sending this message Xingchen Qi pressed out the phone, at 4:00 am the other party must be asleep, may reply.

But to my surprise, a few seconds later, [Bo sent a voice]

Xingchen Qi flipped the book with a shaky hand, after adding WeChat, because you can see every day, the two communicate very little, only a few times.

Sending voice, this is a real first.

Xingchen Qi tongue unconsciously in the lower lip licked, the phone raised to the ear, press play.

"Well, just finished a set of shots and heading to the hotel."

Ye Bai's voice is already low magnetic, and it sounds even better after the current treatment. Xingchen Qi hurriedly took the earpiece away and rubbed the tip of his ear.

Immediately afterwards, another picture appeared on the call screen.

It was taken from inside the car window looking out. Above the old building, a curved moon hangs on the cross, and a few stars are dotted in it, the picture is quiet and romantic.

Xingchen Qi is thinking - so late and still awake, he is very tired, right?

Leaving the "Poor Travels" crew and immediately hoofing it to Washington, D.C. to shoot, he is also a mortal, won't he get tired?

Xingchen Qi felt a tightness in his chest and got up to open the window.

After the boredom faded a little, he took a picture of his desktop like the other side: [Look how hard I worked]

The chat screen showed that it had been sent successfully, but he realized as an afterthought that it sounded a lot like taking credit for a compliment, so he hesitated for a few seconds and withdrew it.

Unfortunately, Ye Bai had already seen the tweet, which resembled a child's request for parental praise.

From a psychological point of view, at this time parents must appropriately

Give encouragement so as not to demotivate your child.

Bo: [The company gave you a play?

Xing Xing : [Well, it's a temporary fix]

Bo: [Great].

Xingchen Qi : "......"

Bo: [read the book well, if there is progress send you a gift]

Xingchen Qi speechless, this fake love bean how to coax a child like?

But he actually had a billion points of heart, left hand on the cheek, the right index finger in the phone a word poke: [what reward ah]

[Xing Xing withdrew a message].

The tone of the article just now is also wrong, like a petty, have to resend.

Xing Xing : [What reward]

Ye Bai was conquered by his ability to bite words and said with a smile: [Look at your completion, it must be what you want]

What he wants ...... What will it be?

[Good! I'll finish it before I join the group!

.

Xing Xing said to engage, put down the phone to see the second half of the night.

Without the call of the program's loudspeaker and Lanxin Du's desperate chain of calls, he finally slept for ten hours after reading the book and lying down in bed.

When he opened the door in the morning and saw Aunt Zhang, he stretched a big lazy back in a happy mood: "Hey, Aunt Zhang, did you go for Botox?"

"What's that?"

"What celebrities always hit, something to remove wrinkles."

"Why, you child, how do we ordinary people need to hit our faces!"

"Don't lie to me," Xingchen Qi justified, "how can you get younger and younger without Botox, tell me the truth!"

The second young master is complimenting her in a roundabout way, Aunt Zhang "pfft", a smile opened up.

In the past, the second young master was rebellious and seldom spoke at home, and he was not close to the servants. Recently, the rebellious period may have passed, and he has become more and more cheerful. Who doesn't like this kind of beautiful and smart young man?

Aunt Zhang waved her hand: "Okay, okay, second young master, don't tease me, go and eat, go to the master after eating, the master is calling you."

Father Qi looking for him?

Afraid of something big, he thumped his way to the dining room and gulped it down into his mouth.

After breakfast, the driver, Lao Sun, came in and called him, saying Xiaoming Qi was waiting at White Sands Port Sea World and asked him to go there.

White Sands Port Marine World is a large tourist attraction near the sea, with a zoo, an oceanarium, a museum of marine flora and fauna, and other entertainment venues.

If not for the fact that it is privately funded, it would even be rated as a national 5A scenic spot for its scenic beauty.

The main set of "Heart of the Sea" was also shot at the White Sands Port Oceanarium.

Xingchen Qi did not dare to delay and immediately got into the car. An hour later, he saw Master Qi at the seaside of White Sands Port in East Linjie Shi.

"Dad," Xingchen Qi walked up behind the old man and called him softly, "I'm here."

"Good, come to Dad's side, let's have a good chat between the two of us."

Xingchen Qi according to the words to walk to Xiaoming Qi side, Xiaoming Qi eyes far-reaching: " Xing Xing, I remember when you were a child favorite to come to the Oceanarium to see the rays, see the seals, so much has passed, we do not seem to have been here for a long time."

Memories of childhood Xingchen Qi's mind was very fuzzy, so he had to nod his head to show that he was listening.

"Now that I think about it, daddy hasn't been sweet enough to you all these years, so daddy decided to give you a gift."

Another gift? The sneakers are still in the warehouse unopened!

"No, Dad, you are very good to me, really no need." Xingchen Qi hurriedly refused.

"It's late," Xiaoming Qi shook his head, "I'm done shopping."

Xingchen Qi : "...... All right, what do you want to send me?"

Qi father hands behind his back, the sea breeze blowing his shirt, hunting.

"See this White Sands Port Sea World," said Father Qi, "from today, it is yours."

Xingchen Qi : "......"

Xingchen Qi : "???"
