I.Lucky Cat.Vanves!

Chapter 45

Finally, the delivery guy left, and Yin Ziduo came back with a delivery bag.

Zhao Xinyi took the initiative to apologize and smiled: "...I suddenly wanted to eat this very much, so I ordered it...you go back to the room first, and I will go up after taking a bite."

Yin Ziduo didn't blame him for having a healthy midnight snack and ordering junk food in the middle of the night, but silently picked up the bag and put it under his nose to smell it, then he frowned and asked in surprise: "What is this? "

Zhao Xinyi licked his lips: "Snail powder. I know you don't like it, so give it to me quickly. It won't taste good after soaking for a long time."

Yin Ziduo dragged a chair and sat across from Zhao Xinyi, unpacking the bag and opening the fast food box with a tangled expression on his face. With the curling heat, there was an all-pervasive sour smell, so powerful that it made people want to cry.

Yin Ziduo covered his nose and looked down at this bowl of soup powder rich in ingredients. The soup was half clear and half cloudy, with a thin layer of chili oil floating on it. Get golden peanuts, capers soaked in soup and a few green spinach.

There are some other ingredients that Yin Ziduo didn't recognize, but as far as the current bowl of soup powder looks, he really can't connect it with the weird smell.

"Snail powder? Where's the snail?" Yin Ziduo took out his disposable chopsticks and stirred the soup experimentally.

Zhao Xinyi gulped down his saliva, and said patiently: "The snails are only used to make soup, and there are also pig bones. After the soup is cooked, you don't need these things."

Yin Ziduo nodded, and picked up another white thing: "What is this?"

"Sour bamboo shoots. It is produced by the acidification of bamboo shoots after being pickled. The special taste of snail noodles mainly comes from this." Zhao Xinyi said, his saliva was about to flow out, and his eyes followed Yin Ziduo's hand, looking at that A little bit of soup dripped from the sour bamboo shoots, and there were small ripples in the bowl, "Give it to me quickly..."

"You know quite a lot." Yin Ziduo seemed very interested. He was still frowning, but with a smile on his lips, he ate the sour bamboo shoots reluctantly, then nodded inexplicably, and sandwiched another small white square: "What is this?"

"Sour radish."

"It turned out to be a radish." Yin Ziduo suddenly realized, and in front of Zhao Xinyi, he ate the sour radish and drank several mouthfuls of soup. Ingredients: "What about this one?"

"Fried bean curd sticks!" Zhao Xinyi finally couldn't hold it anymore, he looked desperately at Yin Ziduo eating more and more vigorously, and said anxiously, "Save some for me!"

Yin Ziduo put the fried yuba into his mouth unhurriedly, chewed it, his mouth was chewy, and his lips and teeth were fragrant. He was most satisfied with the taste of this thing, and he picked out all the fried yuba in the bowl after a while.

Zhao Xinyi: "..." He collapsed on the sofa exhausted, and he didn't have the courage to continue reading.

10 minute later.

Yin Ziduo pushed the bowl in front of him, and smacked his lips contentedly: "It's okay. But this kind of food has a lot of salt and seasonings. It's not good to eat too much. We share the same difficulties. I will share some for you tonight. The rest You can eat."

Only then did Zhao Xinyi dare to open his eyes, and got up full of expectations, only to see that there was only a pile of white rice noodles in the bowl, the side dishes were gone, and even the soup was finished by Yin Ziduo.

Zhao Xinyi: "..."

Yin Ziduo smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "This smell is too bad, I'm going to go up and wash it well, come here after you finish eating."

Zhao Xinyi: "..." Is there anything else I can eat?

Later, Zhao Xinyi also wrote this incident in his diary. He drew a pair of chopsticks on a large bowl and wrote next to it: "On the night of X-month X, Mr. ate up all my snail noodles. Just eat it, and attack the snail powder. This is not good, that is not good. Why can't he face his heart honestly?"

A day later, Yin Ziduo replied to him below: "It's just eating your supper, why do you write it down on purpose? Such a grudge? I'll cook it for you myself, is that okay? As for being honest with myself, I Very honest, I love you in my heart, I love you with my mouth, I love you with my actions, words and deeds are consistent, body and mind are one, isn't this honest?"

Zhao Xinyi felt that what Mr. Yin wrote in his diary was more sour than what he usually said, which made people's skin crawl, but he didn't mind it at all, and he could accept it if it was a little more sleazy.

But he expressed doubts about the fact that Mr. Yin made the snail noodles himself, and replied below: "I don't believe it. It's hard to make snail noodles at home. It's hard to get that taste out of the soup base alone."

Yin Ziduo did not reply, but answered him with practical actions.

One Sunday, when Zhao Xinyi came back from the remedial class, he could smell the sour and spicy smell all over the room. The familiar and strong smell made him salivate. Good snail noodles.

Looking at the kitchen again, Yin Ziduo was taking off his apron, and there were remains of snail shells and pig skulls in the trash can.

Zhao Xinyi was so moved that he almost finished eating the snail noodles made by Mr. Yin with tears in his eyes. Surprisingly, he made them not only beautiful, but also delicious. It was almost the best snail noodles Zhao Xinyi had ever eaten.

But it's so delicious that it's hard to avoid doubts.

In the evening, Zhao Xinyi bribed Yuan Bao with two cans, and Yuan Bao told him the truth: "The master really wanted to make it himself. He started preparing it in the morning, but he almost boiled the first pot of soup, so He had no choice but to give up. Later, he called a mandarin chef to come home and made these two bowls of snail noodles, and when you got home, he sent the chef away."

Zhao Xinyi covered his mouth and snickered, then pretended to be serious and said to Yuan Bao: "Won't your conscience hurt if you betray the master like this?"

Yuan Bao said brazenly: "It won't hurt, little fairy cats have no conscience."

Zhao Xinyi rubbed its little head violently, thinking, Mr. Yin is still dishonest.

But he didn't blame Mr. Yin at all, instead he felt sweet in his heart.

He didn't write it down in his diary, but kept it firmly in his heart.

……

During the preparation period, apart from studying, he also had a romantic relationship with Yin Ziduo. Zhao Xinyi also took on some odd jobs, such as walking the red carpet at events organized by his own magazine, or appearing in Yunduo Audio-visual's self-made variety shows. No preparation and no work.Among them, one of his most important tasks is to go to "Sound of Nature" to help Mike.

This program has always divided the contestants into three groups, one group focuses on appearance, one group focuses on singing skills, and the other group focuses on creative ability. Now there are only 3 contestants left in each group. In the follow-up competition, the No. .1, and then decide 1st, 2nd, and 3rd among the three winners.

Each team has a well-known artist as a star recommender, and there are professional judges on site. These stars and judges can canvass votes, and use various methods to praise or dislike players, but they have no voting rights. Rankings are all decided by fans and audience votes.

Now the battle situation has reached the point where it is in full swing, all players and fans are doing their best, hoping to have a place in the final ranking competition.

In this program, the director team gave a new challenge. Each contestant has to use limited resources to complete a short music video of about 3 minutes. Music icon charm.

After the short film is completed, the program group will broadcast it on major media platforms as a way to publicize and canvass votes.

The importance of this short film is self-evident. It is equivalent to shooting an advertisement for yourself. Whether you can "sell" yourself at a good price depends largely on whether the advertisement can attract people.

The program team has strictly limited the resources that the contestants can use. The program team is only equipped with a cameraman and an assistant director. The contestants themselves can also hire a foreign aid. The final short film presentation can only be completed by these few people.

The contestants and the companies behind them naturally tried their best and used all their strengths to invite this crucial foreign aid. Some invited famous MV directors to arrange short films, and some invited first-line singers and actors to assist the contestants. Others are ingenious, looking for grassroots Internet celebrities who are popular on the short video platform, hoping to use their huge traffic to bring players out of the circle and wider attention.

And according to the characteristics of the contestants, the styles of the short films are also very different, some are lyrical and aesthetic, some are funny and funny, and some are cool and alternative.

As soon as Zhao Xinyi heard the news, he volunteered to complete this short film with Mike. At the beginning, Cao Xingwang enthusiastically agreed, but he still murmured in his heart. After all, Zhao Xinyi was just an art candidate who hadn’t entered school and had no works. The current enthusiasm is like a castle in the air, rather illusory.

And Mike is now in the group that focuses on creative ability. The popularity of the players in his group is not dominant among the three groups, especially not as good as the "beauty group". Among the three players in this group, Mike's popularity is also at the top. No up or down position.

According to Cao Xingwang's original idea, the short film must invite a big star to help Mike turn the tide.He agreed to Zhao Xinyi's participation, which was a bit embarrassing at first, but after a few meetings with several people, he found that Zhao Xinyi had his own ideas, and he was slowly relieved.

For example, Zhao Xinyi said at the beginning that Mike has outstanding creative ability, and the short film should also show this quality, so the original music must be the most important, and the form should be simple, not to overwhelm the host. This point was quickly recognized by Mike himself . Mike said: "I don't want to sing saliva songs and dance Internet celebrity dances like a clown, I just want to make music well."

They quickly chose a song written by Mike himself as the theme song, which is a gentle, touching and catchy love song. Next, they will match it with a simple, warm and touching short story, composed by Mike and Zhao Xinyi performed it.

Everyone brainstormed, Zhao Xinyi thought for a day, and thought of the scene when he first met Mike, he sang in the underground passage. At that time, the teenager who was full of confusion about the future listened to it, sang it to every passerby who could appreciate him, and even sang it to those who ridiculed him.

This kind of feeling of a flower blooming in the ruins is a bit cool. Mike himself also fits this style of painting, so Zhao Xinyi wanted to use the element of a wandering singer as the theme of the short film.

He quickly thought up a story, and since he watched a lot of TV shows, it wasn't too difficult for him to make up a short story once in a while.

After Yin Ziduo came back at night, Zhao Xinyi told him this simple story of his own.

The story takes place in the future, where artificial intelligence and genetic modification technologies have become popular in people's lives. The smart pets created by these two technologies are very popular among people, and a teenager lives with a smart cat.Recently, the smart cat always ran outside. The young man was very curious, so he followed it to see where it went, so he found a singer singing in the underground passage of the slum area. The young man was attracted by the singer's singing and went to look for it every day. he.

He found that the singer always sang the same song, and he felt an inexplicable familiarity with that song. Day after day, the teenager developed feelings for the singer.

It wasn't until one day that the boy crossed the road in a wheelchair and was about to be hit by a car that appeared suddenly. The singer sacrificed his life to save him, and he discovered that the singer was a robot.

And while watching the robot singer fall apart, his traumatic memories are restored.

It turned out that the reason why he suffered from disability and amnesia was because he was involved in a car accident a year ago, and his boyfriend at the time was seriously injured and paralyzed to protect him.The boy's boyfriend is also a homeless singer. After he was seriously injured, he thought of replacing himself with a robot to accompany and take care of the boy, singing his favorite song every day.This is how the robot wandering singer came into being.

In the end, the boy found his boyfriend who was seriously ill, and hoped to spend the remaining time with him.

After listening to the story carefully, Yin Ziduo sighed for a moment, thought for a while, and commented: "It's a pretty complete little story. If it's a little more condensed, it can indeed be well presented in a short film. And this story has warmth. , very affectionate, if the filming is done well, it should be able to touch people's hearts."

When Yin Ziduo is talking about serious matters, he will not treat them differently because of different objects. His evaluation is objective and even harsh, so Zhao Xinyi is relieved after listening to it. Yin Ziduo gave a positive evaluation of this story. It shows that his story is indeed okay.

He was about to laugh, but Yin Ziduo said seriously: "But is that smart cat useful? Cats are indeed a cute element, but it is very difficult to actually shoot animals. It seems that a director has said that the most difficult thing to shoot is animals, children, etc. There is water. The short film shooting time is short, you can’t have time to do special effects, and it’s difficult to find well-trained animals...not to mention cats, these self-righteous masters are even more difficult to shoot. I suggest you delete this element Bar."

Zhao Xinyi turned his head and glanced at Yuan Bao, who was sleeping on the mat, and said confidently: "No, no, no, it can't be deleted. This smart cat is the golden finger for my work."

The author has something to say:

Yuan Bao, wake up, get up and start filming!

Thank you for your support, good night~??ヽ(°▽°)ノ?
