Chapter 130 Liu Qianqian joins the group (seeking confirmation)
Singing a meaningful song that she carefully prepared in public is tantamount to confessing her love.
Xiang Yang knew this, but he really wanted to sing this song to the other party, so that he could take the opportunity to express his feelings.
Naturally, he also thought about his retreat.
After noticing that Liu Qianqian kept her ears open and listened to her singing, Xiang Yang had a smirk on his face. How could he and Little John prepare only such a song together.
After singing the last line of this old song from the 1960s, Xiang Yang, who was holding a microphone, shouted to the cheering crowd: "Now, here's our Captain Davy Jones, "Wellerman"!"
Seeing Xiang Yang, who has always been steady and mature, he made a playful suggestion. As the producer of "Midnight in Paris", Bill Nye was soon pushed in front of the band amidst the sound of neat beatings.
“You guy,” Bill, who took the phone, smiled and shook his head at Xiang Yang amidst the sound of “dong dong”.
"You are our captain." Xiang Yang smiled. His words immediately gained everyone's approval. Even Marion, who was communicating with the other party just now, did not follow the airs of the queen and put her hands to her mouth. Cheered: "Captain Jones~"
"Jones~Bill~"
"Jones~Bill~"
As soon as she said this, most of the people started to cheer, shouting while filming the intro to "Wellerman".
Seeing this, Bill Nye looked at Xiangyang gratefully.
To be honest, as Anna Wintour's boyfriend, everyone can't help but have other feelings about his identity as a producer.
It is precisely for this reason that he attended the gathering of the cast and crew alone today.
After picking up the microphone, he showed a heartfelt smile and put the microphone to his mouth. Everyone suddenly became quiet. Seeing the corners of his mouth sinking, everyone knew that the real show had just begun.
He looked around at the crowd, and with a deep voice, read out some of his most oppressive lines in "Pirates of the Caribbean":
"Are you afraid of death?"
"Are you afraid of the black abyss?"
"Your life is here..."
"I'll give you a chance to join my team and sing "Wellerman" together. Are you willing to join?"
Faced with Bill's sudden change of lyrics on the spot, the silent crowd immediately cheered: "100 Years! 100 years! 100 years!”
Bill Nye laughed, 100 years was exactly the promise he made to the sailor in his line, and he turned to look at the drummer with a smile on his face. .
Amidst the percussion of the other party, he sang in a low voice: "There once was a ship out to sea, and the name of that ship was Billy of Tea...
The wind blew, and her ship Heads sinking, oh, blow it my guys..."
As soon as this syllable was reached, everyone who was humming along with the rhythm let out a "boo" and then sang along loudly: "Wellerman will be here soon and bring us sugar, tea and rum,
When one day the whaling is over, we will leave..."
Then it's Bill's solo again: "She had been off shore for less than two weeks when a huge whale came towards her, and the captain called everyone together and I vowed to drag that whale back."
Everyone: "Wellerman will be here soon..."
Liu Qianqian, who knew the melody but didn't remember the lyrics, said in "La La La. "I also joined in when I was humming.
She had just digested the unique feeling brought by Xiang Yang's song, her face was filled with emotional joy, and she had a glass of champagne in her hand.
Emma Stone, who was beside her, was even more excited. Her eyes were shining with excitement as she sang along, drank down the champagne in her hand, and made a reasonable request:
< br>"Captain, we should drink beer!"
It doesn't matter whether her voice is sudden or not, the key is that the appeal of her voice instantly ignites everyone's passion. In a relaxed atmosphere, The crazy people stopped singing along with "Captain" and started shouting: "Captain! Give us beer!"
"Captain! Give us beer!"
Looking at the "crew members" who turned against each other one after another, Bill naturally complied with their requests.
Suddenly, the restaurant was so lively...
During the celebration time, looking at the bustling actors, Xiang Yang came to Liu Qianqian’s side at some point, holding her hand in one hand Bei was laughing, and she shook Xiang Yang's hand calmly with one hand, showing that she was very happy with the little surprise Xiang Yang gave her just now.
"He is really good at it..."
"Stinky guy..."
Thinking of Emma Stone's comments about Xiang Yang, Liu Qianqian pretended to pinch the opponent's fingertips casually.
"Have you often attended parties like this before?" After letting go of her hand, she looked up at Xiangyang and asked.
"It's not bad. In fact, just participate more." Xiang Yang smiled, sounding very casual and relaxed. Afraid that Liu Qianqian wouldn't believe it, he looked at Little John not far away: "You Look, isn’t that guy very adaptable to such an occasion?”
Little John was chatting excitedly with someone.
No need to guess... When French people and British people get together, there will never be a shortage of topics to debate.
The origin of a 'Beef Wellington' would allow them to quote classics and express their opinions for an hour or two.
"I'm asking about you." Liu Qianqian said, "You see you set off the atmosphere so well. Everyone likes...likes you."
"The most important thing is that you like ." Xiang Yang said.
"I like it quite a lot. I feel a lot more relaxed all of a sudden, and there is no sense of estrangement anymore." After saying this, Liu Qianqian's eyes blurred for a moment. Perhaps it was the effect of alcohol that made her fair-skinned. The cheeks looked rosy, like a reddish green fruit.
Full of temptation.
"What a pity..." Seeing her hazy eyes, Xiang Yang sighed, took the wine glass from the other party's hand, and said, "Stop drinking, go back to the hotel in the evening, take a shower, and then have a good rest."
< br>"Yeah...I know." Liu Qianqian narrowed her eyes.
“You don’t have to dress too formally tomorrow, just jeans and a white shirt. Either tuck the front into your pants, or tie it in a knot, just use the method I taught you.” Xiang Yang said soberly. Looking at her happily, he whispered.
He also thought, but unfortunately this goblin has joined the group today.
"I know, don't worry." Liu Qianqian said with a smile, "Zhao Xin will help me prepare it. If no one answers your calls these days, don't worry.
She holds the phone for me. "
"Well, I know..."
...
The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
Different from domestic opening ceremonies, Hollywood's The opening ceremony basically involves the main actors appearing together and taking a photo, which only takes 10 minutes.
Only this time, because Paris attaches great importance to it, the best viewing spot in front of the Eiffel Tower on the Champ de Mars early in the morning and the beautifully decorated site were controlled.
Then... French Tourism Director, Mayor of Paris, Chairman of the French Film Federation, Director of the French Film Bureau, French First Lady, Anna, Galeries Lafayette, Pierre...
And then... Warner representatives, producers, directors, creators...
And then... It was supposed to be a group photo, but someone insisted on saying a few words in front of a large group of media.
“It’s so idle that I feel sick.”
Although most people have the same idea in their hearts, they still have to give them the face they deserve.
If you don’t give him face, at least give the bright sunshine a smile.
It was just that after the speaker finished speaking those few words, there was very little applause at the scene. After cooperating with several movies, Xiang Yang said goodbye to Pierre, Lafayette and others. He was the costume director of "Midnight in Paris", not the costume assistant of the crew.
He has already done what he needs to do. If nothing unexpected happens in the rest of the time, minor problems will be handled by the on-site costumes.
And he still has his own things to be busy with.
As for the job of art director assistant, it was more of Anna giving him some compensation. After all, she put the title of art director on her head.
Of course, if Xiang Yang had time to come to the crew, no one would say anything.
At least Liu Qianqian, who was filming with the team, still hopes to see Xiang Yang on the set.
Total ratio…
"Liu, this chair of yours is very comfortable. Where did you buy it?" Sitting on Liu Qianqian's red 'Vasily Chair', Emma Stone suddenly let out a sigh.
Sitting in this chair, feeling the warm sun shining on my face, makes people feel indescribably comfortable.
"If Emma likes it, I'll give you one."
Before Liu Qianqian answered, a soothing and soft voice came into their ears with a smile, and Liu Xiaoli smiled at the corners of her mouth. .
"Auntie, don't go to such trouble, I can just buy it myself." Emma Stone quickly waved her hand, and she looked at Liu Qianqian for help.
Please trouble Liu Qianqian’s mother and agent...
Emma Stone asked herself that she was not that stupid.
Liu Qianqian glanced at her mother with a complicated expression, and then said to Emma Stone with a smile: "It's okay, my mother gave me this chair. If you really ask me, I don't know. Where did you buy it?"
Liu Xiaoli glanced at her daughter and Emma Stone with burning eyes.
This American girl who always puts a smile on her face is quite lovable.
Seeing her befriending Liu Qianqian, Liu Xiaoli realized that it would be more comfortable to ask someone to buy a chair for her than to give it to Xiangyang.
"It's okay, Auntie. Liu and I are friends. You don't have to be so polite."
"We are all friends. It's right for Auntie to give you a chair. You are actors. Tired at the scene..."
Seeing her mother and Emma struggling for a chair... Liu Qianqian looked at the blue sky melancholy. The moment she lowered her head, she noticed the bag on her mother's arm. The familiar logo asked her in surprise: "Mom, when did you buy this bag?"
"Ah, this..."
……
Time flies.
A few days later in the morning, Xiangyang woke up from a deep sleep.
After opening his hazy eyes and relaxing for a moment, he got up from the bed. Wearing pajamas, he glanced at the empty bed and sighed.
Since the filming of "Midnight in Paris" officially started, he has become a 'lonely old man'.
The crew has requirements, so Liu Qianqian, as an accompanying actor, naturally has to stay in the hotel where the crew lives.
No matter how good the relationship between Bill, Damien and Xiang Yang is, it is impossible for them to open a back door in this regard.
Xiang Yang would not be stupid enough to make such a request.
Cohesion is a very subtle thing. Sometimes I think that everyone can come together over a drink, but sometimes it can be shattered in an instant because of a small incident involving a certain member.
It’s just that Xiangyang is a little uncomfortable with this living condition that he was accustomed to before. The home is too big.
One person, one cat, two dogs...it's too empty.
After making coffee, pouring water and cat food into the cat bowl, Xiangyang came to the door of the house amidst the urging of rice balls and Laifu, opened the door, and let the two people who had been stifled all night The guys ran out in a hurry.
About half an hour later, the two panting dogs opened the door again to express that they had had enough fun.
During the whole process, Xiangyang didn't care what the two of them were doing.
After initially being interested in seeing where these two guys were 'burying mines', Xiangyang decisively asked people to come to his house to clean up the yard every day. Occasionally, he would play Frisbee with them.
But not now.
After confirming that the two naughty guys did not step on the 'landmine', he let them into the house.
After breakfast, he drove half a mile in the morning glow. Around 1 hour, Xiangyang came to the place where he often got up early and parked his car.
In the cafe not far away, little John is sitting and waiting.
With nothing to do, the two of them shook hands solemnly and walked into the coffee shop together.
Although the two of them had actually had breakfast at home, some habits they had formed were difficult to break in a short period of time, just like they lit the cigarettes in their mouths before they even drank the coffee when they came out.
"Xiang, I think you did something that made me sad." Little John said regretfully after taking a deep breath of cigarette.
"Actually, I've done a lot," Xiang Yang turned to look at Cui Er's friend. Ever since the filming of "Midnight in Paris" started, Little John, who occasionally helped Xiang Yang go to the scene, became obsessed with acting.
To put it simply, he feels uncomfortable if he doesn’t pretend.
"What I said is true, Xiang!" Little John glared angrily, "Why do you all have money to take it, but I don't!"
"..." Xiang Yang shrugged, as if it didn't matter to him.
"You're so boring..." Seeing that his friend didn't praise his superb acting skills at all, Little John curled his lips. He learned this move from Dou Sen.
"Take it easy, man." After Xiang Yang finished speaking, he took a puff of cigarette and said, "How's the ticket going?"
"I must have bought it."
Little John, who had been looking forward to the start of the French Open for a long time, did not forget this matter. As soon as the tickets were issued, he asked someone to take care of this small matter. "When the time comes, you, me, Laura, Liu, Dou Sen, Juan Fu, Colin..."
Clapping his fingers, Little John read out a lot of names, "We sat together, and then my dad and the others were together with Anna and the others."
"So many." Xiang Yang was surprised.
“When I was on the set that day, I chatted with Dou Sen and the others. It turned out that they were also interested, so I bought more.” Little John explained.
The ticket money for him and Xiangyang was naturally paid by Hermès. As for other people’s tickets...
Little John has always upheld the idea that as long as it doesn’t cost him, who else will pay for it? Who comes out.
Anyway, he will definitely get back the money he advanced.
“By the way, how is your dress going? My Laura asked me today.”
“It’s basically almost finished. I’ll let Laura come over and try it on and see. See if there is anything that needs to be changed.”
He made two dresses, the second one was inspired by the first one, and the first one was inspired by Liu Qianqian.
I have been with you for a long time. After being separated for a few days, I still miss her.
Taking a sip of coffee, Xiang Yang suddenly thought
I don’t know how she is doing lately.
