Chapter 244 The Father Who Wanted to Visit the Set
Chapter 244 The Father Who Wanted to Visit the Set
I haven't figured it out yet.
Suddenly, He Shengming heard noises coming from the other end of the phone.
The previously authoritative Old Man He suddenly let out a pig-like scream:
"Ouch! That hurts!"
"Honey, honey, be gentle! The child is listening on the other end of the phone, give me some face!"
Followed by.
A powerful female voice instantly took over the volume:
"Face? You actually care about face?"
"He Jianguo, you've really gotten something out of you!"
"I didn't say anything to you when you were drooling over that girl while watching TV."
"Now she even dares to call her son behind my back, wanting to travel across provinces to visit him on set?"
"Was that a set visit? I think you just wanted to see your first love!"
"Did you think I was deaf when you muttered 'just like Xiao Cui back then'?"
"Didn't you say I was your first love? How come there's another first love out there?"
"You need to explain this to me clearly!"
"......"
He Shengming listened to his mother's voice.
My hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and I was completely flustered.
What the heck? Xiao Cui? First love? Jiang Baizhi?
The combination of these three words was so rich in information that even a professional actor like him couldn't keep up with the performance!
So, Dad really did have a first love named Xiao Cui!
"No... Mom, please calm down, my dad might be..."
"Son, shut up! Tomorrow I'll confiscate all your dad's money and see how he buys a plane ticket to Kyoto!"
Hearing the chaotic sounds over there, He Shengming's survival instinct instantly kicked in.
He slapped his thigh and shouted into the microphone:
"Mom! Dad! Please don't come!"
"Our director, Yu Zheng, is notoriously short-tempered; his temper is as foul as a rock in a latrine."
"The film crew's perimeter was so tight it was like an iron barrel; not even a fly could get in!"
"Last time, an investor wanted to bring his family to the theater, but he was chased out with a stick!"
"I'm hanging up, the director wants me to go to his bed... no, he wants me to go over the script with him!"
With a snap, He Shengming hung up the phone in the blink of an eye.
He Shengming wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He has acted in many romance dramas throughout his life and boasts that he has done a lot of research on the "white moonlight" complex of middle-aged men.
But he never expected that his old man, Comrade He Jianguo, who usually only studied how to get rich by reading "The Road to Wealth", would actually fall in love with Jiang Baizhi because of a song.
"No way! My dad knows about Teacher Jiang Baizhi, but I'm the only one who doesn't? That's so irresponsible of me!"
He Shengming jumped out of bed and frantically swiped his phone.
I heard Yu Zheng boast before that Jiang Baizhi not only has great potential in acting, but also in singing.
He also felt that it was a marketing tactic commonly used by Director Yu.
But now that even his father has fallen for it, the situation has completely changed!
He Shengming's fingers trembled slightly as he skillfully opened Weibo.
As soon as he entered the trending topics page, the row of bright red text made him hold his breath.
#2 on the trending topics list: #Jiang Baizhi's amazing performance of "Gently Tell You"# (Breaking News)
#5 on the trending topics list: #Goddess of the new generation? No, goddess of the 00s! # (Boiling Point)
#8 on the trending topics list: #First batch of victims have appeared, how are your parents doing?# (New)
"Is Teacher Jiang Baizhi really that amazing?"
He Shengming muttered to himself as he clicked on one of the most viewed short video clips from The Voice of China.
In the video, the stage lights are soft and gentle, like water.
Jiang Baizhi's retro-style noblewoman outfit, accentuated by the Peter Pan collar plaid dress and double-layered pearl necklace, exuded a holy beauty.
As the intro began, Jiang Baizhi on the screen tilted her head slightly and gave the camera a bright yet slightly shy smile.
Let me tell you softly~
"The stars in the sky are waiting~"
In that instant, He Shengming felt as if he had been electrocuted.
As someone who had acted opposite Jiang Baizhi on set, he had seen her melancholic and beautiful side, as well as her ravenous and fierce side when she was about to die.
but.
He never imagined that this girl could sing such sweet songs that it would make his bones melt!
This sweetness isn't the kind of "sweetness" created by industrial saccharin.
Rather, it is a kind of soul healing that transcends time and space, carrying a certain gentle power.
"hiss--"
He Shengming stared at the screen, watching Jiang Baizhi's every little finger gesture, and looking into her sparkling eyes.
He finally understood why his father had gone mad.
That smile was like a perfectly timed "first love bomb" dropped into the hearts of every elder who grew up in that era!
"That's amazing... absolutely amazing."
He Shengming murmured, his eyes burning with a fervor even more intense than when he first landed his first role.
As a seasoned veteran in the industry, He Shengming knows all too well how devastating this "national first love" is.
This is no longer just about singing well; it's about a "devastating" overhaul of the aesthetic standards of men across China.
This also made He Shengming's heart beat even more strongly for Jiang Baizhi.
"No, I need to learn more about Ms. Jiang Baizhi! That way, I'll be more confident when I pursue her!"
He logged out of Weibo and eagerly entered the official live broadcast room of "The Voice of China".
at this time.
The number of online users has exceeded an astonishing ten million.
The barrage of comments was so dense that you could barely make out the contestants' faces.
He Shengming didn't bother to turn off the live comments; his eyes were glued to the program schedule in the lower left corner of the screen.
"Third place... fourth place... fifth place is Jiang Baizhi!"
He Shengming calculated the time. Based on the usual pattern of "The Voice of China," each of the top ten contestants would dawdle for at least fifteen minutes.
It was another pre-final VCR, another emotional appeal from the mentors, and another on-site campaigning for votes.
"I guess it'll be another hour."
He Shengming sighed, picked up the warm water next to him, and prepared to start the long-term battle.
But the next second, the atmosphere in the live stream suddenly became extremely bizarre.
On the screen, the third contestant had just finished singing the first chorus when the camera suddenly seemed to fast-forward.
"Thank you for this student's wonderful performance! Mentors, please provide your feedback!"
Hua Shao's voice was so fast it sounded like he was clapping a clapper.
Na Ying, Wang Feng, and Li Ronghao, these mentors who usually spend half a day discussing a single vocal transition, surprisingly spoke in unison at this moment:
"You sang very well, with great emotion. Keep up the good work!"
Hua Shao then went on stage to display the contestant's final score.
"Alright, next up!"
The speed was so fast that he almost didn't have time to react.
The water glass in He Shengming's hand froze in mid-air.
"What the heck?"
He glanced at his watch.
From the moment the third contestant stepped onto the stage until he bowed and left, the entire process took only two minutes!
Two minutes?
Even extras in movies and TV shows don't act this fast!
