Chapter 69 16-4

This issue of "All Stars" magazine was released, and bookstores and newspaper kiosks around the world were sold out on the same day. In addition to the three hottest newcomers in the music scene printed on the cover, as long as you buy the magazine, you will randomly give one of them Torn off a special letterhead in the magazine, sent the letter to the three of them to the magazine, and had the opportunity to publish it publicly and get their autographs.

Xu Xinan handed Lin Zhique a copy of "The Stars".

From the entrance of the bookstore to the queue at the corner of the street, she queued twice in total, bought two books, and went to the queue again. The bookstore had already posted a handwritten announcement that they were sold out.

This was the first time they had seen each other since the day of the heavy rain.

Lin Zhique removed the plastic cover, and a folded poster fell out from the inside of the magazine. When it was unfolded, it was a solo portrait of Chen Jia, with a plain white background. The red looks abrupt, and it is a not-so-good photo.

Xu Xinan asked earnestly, "Have you recovered from your cold? I also called your home twice, and your mother answered, saying that you have been sleeping. This magazine is for you. I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it when you recover." When you arrive, I will buy it for you first. For the past two days, I have been carrying it with me, thinking that one day you want to come out to let the wind go, so I will give it to you by the way. Am I very interesting?"

Lin Zhique lowered her eyes, a little guilty. In fact, she had recovered a few days ago, and even rushed to Du's house to vent her anger, but she didn't want to see Xu Xinan, maybe it was a little naive, she didn't want to admit it , she put Xu Xinan into Du Zhian's camp.

She didn't really need friends.

She was determined to be alone for the rest of her life. When she was staring at her mobile phone in a daze in the manga room, Xu Xinan suddenly appeared and caught her by surprise.

Xu Xinan sat across from her, opened another magazine in his hand, and carefully tore off a certain half of the inner page. This inner page was designed as letter paper with some broken lines so that readers could tear it off and write letters.

"I bought five stamps and several envelopes, do you want to write them together?"

Lin Zhique flipped to that page, glanced at ten lines and skipped the event details, and immediately came to a conclusion: "Chen Jia has only one signature, and writing it is for nothing."

As soon as she said that, she immediately remembered that Xu Xinan once had Chen Jia's signature.The signature was torn to pieces in public.But it was too late, she also gave up the remedy, she was still angry in her heart, thinking that it was none of my business to poke someone's sore spot!

"Even if you don't draw autographs, it's fine if you can publish in a magazine. Letters from five people can be published in a magazine!"

"What's the use of being in a magazine?"

"Chen Jia might watch it!"

Lin Zhique replied bluntly: "I won't write, if you want to write, you write." Then, ignoring Xu Xinan's obvious embarrassment that he was bored, he turned the magazine to the front to read other contents.

After reading a few lines, she couldn't help but glance at the mobile phone set aside.

Recently, she received several strange text messages, which made her worry a lot.

Last night, she couldn't help but send the other party again: Tell me first, what do you want me to do?

The other party replied to her very bluntly: I want to take a look at some documents in the drawer of Du Shen's study.

Do you think I'm stupid and will be used by you casually?

You are not stupid.But I think you should be very interested in this matter.

After that, Lin Zhique did not reply to the other party.

But she thought about it almost all the time.Her mother was right, her personality was somewhat similar to Du Shen's, they were both arrogant and dangerous elements, with a natural desire for desperate things.

Even if it sounds unbelievable.

Xu Xinan suddenly spoke, pulling Lin Zhique out of his restless thoughts: "Well, that day... on her birthday, were you unhappy?" She said as she buried herself in the letter, trying to pretend it was just a small talk.

Lin Zhique satirized: "Whose birthday? You can't even mention the name, Voldemort?"

Xu Xinan was uncomfortable even holding the pen hand and adjusted his posture several times, "That's right, Du Zhian, it was Du Zhian's birthday. I don't think she went to the Children's Palace Orchestra to practice piano these days, and she didn't seem to be there recently. Live at home..."

"how do you know?"

Speaking of which, she went to Du's house a few days ago, but she did not see Du Zhian and Tang Li.

"I... just... listen to what those people in our class say, those who are close to her."

"Really? You can just ask her directly? Didn't you run away from home together? "

Xu Xinan stopped writing, with a look of frustration on his face, "I don't seem to be able to talk to her. I called her, but I don't know what to say."

Lin Zhique was silent, thinking bitterly in his heart that this person is really too frank and stupid enough, Du Zhian is a princess, so of course he can't chat with you.

Xu Xinan asked, "What happened that day?"

Lin Zhique couldn't bear it anymore, covered the cover of the magazine, his mouth ran faster than his brain, and asked, "Xu Xinan, do you like Du Zhian?"

Xu Xinan's wheat-colored cheeks flushed, and panic flashed across his face.

"I, okay? I don't think she's a bad person. Our classmates like her very much."

"I'm not talking about the likes of classmates and friends."

"I don't know, it's okay." She turned her head and looked through the canvas bag beside her, "I'm going to buy something to drink. What do you drink?"

"What's okay? I mean, do you want to fall in love with Du Zhian?"

With a bang, the letter paper under the pen was scratched by the pen in Xu Xinan's hand.

"What did you say? How is it possible? I'm not, and she..." She went on and on, not knowing what to say, "You, don't you think you are offensive?"

Lin Zhique was already angry, but being accused like this made him even more unforgiving: "Where is the offense? If not, you say no, if it is, what can't you admit? Cover up. She didn't go to practice the piano, She doesn't live at home, you know better than her father, do you go to wait for her under the window of her house every day, thinking you are Romeo?"

Xu Xinan gritted his teeth, stood up, took the rucksack in one hand, threw the pen in his hand into the bag without even closing the lid, and stuffed the torn letter paper and magazines in, "I don't have what you said like that."

She provoked again: "What kind?"

"As you please. I'm going. You're simply unreasonable."

"Who is unreasonable?"

Xu Xinan ignored her and turned to leave.

Lin Zhique crossed his hands and leaned against the back of the sofa suddenly.

That's all right, she doesn't need friends anyway.

On the table was the "Stars" that Xu Xinan gave her, and Du Zhian's idiot aunt was also printed on the cover.

She was so angry that she wanted to call out to Xu Xinan who had already walked to the door of the store, and told her to take the magazine back. When she stretched out her hand, she found that the plastic bag of the magazine had been torn by her and could no longer be sealed. Into a brand new look.

whispering sound!That's up to you!Do as she pleases!

While thinking viciously, she turned the pages vigorously, making the magazine rattle.

Because of the issue of the magazine poster, netizens on gossip forums and other major posting bars are making waves again. The main reason is that Chen Jia's fans "Yiren" are dissatisfied. The photos are also mediocre. On the other hand, Du Siren's is an indoor scene with excellent lighting and shadow atmosphere. Even the photos on the inside pages are taken up by her.In short, he firmly insisted that Du Si was a related family, and he was the shady king appointed by the program group.Amid the excitement, there were of course some insiders or half-insiders who came forward to tell the truth: on the day of filming, Chen Jia was sick and left early, and it was Dusi who worked overtime to make up for her share of the filming.

Immediately drowned in the saliva of the verbal war.

Lin Zhique scoffed, it turned out that the Internet was so unreasonable as early as 2005.

The contestants were unaware of the turmoil of public opinion. Their mobile phones were all confiscated, their calling cards removed and thrown in the bedside table in Lin Zhique's room, and all the network cables in the room were also pulled out.After the radio incident, everyone was in an extremely high-pressure state of preparation. Zhu He wanted to come to the program group to arrange their schedules, filling all the blank spaces with notices. Until Friday night before the live broadcast, they started at six every day. In class, practice, and rehearsal, the gaps are constantly interviewed and recorded TV programs, and the work is not finished until early in the morning.

Six to five is a group competition, and they have to run in with each other in a short period of time. Their personalities are too distinct, and they are forced to be together, and disagreements are common.Lin Zhique was often complained by the program group, to the effect that who was arguing with whom again, and the rehearsal could not go on. The most quarrelsome ones were Zhou Zipei and Dialect, with one loud voice and one small voice, and no one was convinced.Then Tao Lexin had a unilateral quarrel with the Dusi people, Lin Zhique was too lazy to bother, saying that he would let the Dusi people coax him, the Dusi people were the best at dealing with children.

After all, her dear niece likes her the most.

On August 8th, Friday, the six-in-five live broadcast, everyone's state was almost at the critical point of collapse or explosion, and even the sparkling eyes of Dusi people had a few bloodshot eyes.

In the afternoon, Lin Zhique called the technician three times, asking the technician to broadcast the real-time vote count. After the third call, the other party finally got impatient: "It's only been half an hour, what can change?" Du Siren and Chen Jia's vote count Always biting together tightly, sticking to overtake each other.

During the final rehearsal, Lin Zhique took the time to watch Du Siren's makeup. She wanted to remind her to remember Tian Ji's horse racing. Among the six, teammate Tao Lexin would be dead against anyone. She chose Wang, who was weaker on the spot Yiran or dialect is the best way to win a big score.

Before she could say anything, she felt that it was unnecessary and she shouldn't intervene in her war.

There were many brand owners and insiders who came to watch the birth of the top five, and she was busy receiving them, picking up this and that, until the live broadcast started.She inadvertently passed around a few Dusi people's fans, and when she met a familiar Yuji in the auditorium, she politely said, did you see it, that is the boss of a certain brand, and that is a certain producer.The other party took a closer look and said wow, the popularity of Dusi people is really very high.

She could figure out the content of the draft the next day with her toes, what commercial value and what was expected by the industry. This is still the era of paper media, and ordinary people are very easy to listen to the evaluation of the media.

She is very satisfied with this slightly arrogant little trick.

The host is announcing: "According to the number of support votes received by text messages as of [-]:[-] p.m., in the first round of PK battle tonight, the first player to choose an opponent first is—"

Fans desperately shouted the names of their idols.

"—Look at the big screen."

The contestants stood on one side and collectively turned their heads to look.

The screen flickered, and the names of the six people appeared one after the other, with Chen Jia ranked above Dusi.

scream.Lin Zhique plugged his ears with his fingers.

The difference between No. 2 and No. [-] is extremely small, and the two totals are close to seven figures, only a few thousand votes apart.

Tao Lexin was at the bottom. She stood beside Du Siren, puffing her face into a small bun.Dusi raised his hand and patted her head.

The microphone was handed to Chen Jia.

The host asked her who to choose?

She smiled and raised the microphone, and when the shouting from the audience finally calmed down, she said, "I choose the people from Dusi."

The host asked, "Why?"

"We have an appointment."

Lin Zhique heard it and thought, what a boring agreement.

"Oh? So you picked each other to be your opponent? Why do you want her to be your opponent?"

Chen Jia's handsome red phoenix eyes are extremely attractive when he smiles.

"Because, in this world, what I love most is music, and I think music has infinite possibilities. She showed me one of them, which I have never seen before, and which I can't do yet, I think it's wonderful."

The host asked again: "It's just that it can't be done temporarily, right?"

"Ah."

"Alright, before the PK starts, do you have anything to say to Si Ren?"

Du Siren turned to look at Chen Jia.

Chen Jia also turned away, and they looked at each other.

She paused, pursed her lips, and said to Dusi people: "I know this is your home field. But the champion is me."

The whole place is boiling.

The Dusi people smiled with crooked eyes, showing a row of white teeth.

Lin Zhique couldn't help but recall that Du Siren once told her that she wanted to become an idol like a lighthouse.

Chen Jia and Du Siren are two completely different careerists.But they are all ambitious.

Du Siren took the microphone and replied: "Okay, but you have to be careful, there is one thing that you seem to be losing to me soon."

At this time, someone sent a text message to Lin Zhique: Beauty, I'm here for an appointment, come down and pick me up, I'm at the side door.

She left the studio, walked to the side door, and found that it was the assistant director Lao Zhou who was as ugly as a beast.

After meeting him in the nightclub that day, she had another phone call with him and asked him if he had the chance to audition.

This ugly man has obviously tidied himself up. The few remaining strands of his hair are brushed back and he is wearing a tight floral shirt. When he came up, he reached out to touch her forearm. She put on a flawless smile and said, Thank you.

Old Zhou chuckled: "Beauty, it's like three autumns since I don't see you in a day. I've been busy eating with the big directors these days, and I don't care about getting in touch with you."

"Where is it? I was too busy with work and neglected Director Zhou."

"It's not too slow. The director of our new play will be decided soon. I think you must be interested in this matter. I'm here to find you. Brother treats you well, right?"

Lin Zhique was so disgusted that he had nothing to say, so he could only smile.

"Unfortunately, this drama is really attracting everyone's attention. I want to help you, but I am powerless. Normally, if your beauty tricks are more violent, I will definitely go through fire and water to help you solve the problem. It's not like there is no chance , We must have had an open audition, but there are too many people who want to audition, I have to screen in advance. I have the scripts of the first five episodes with me now, and I will return to Beijing tomorrow. For the last night, I want to Let me invite you to sit down and have a drink, and I will analyze the script for you. When the time comes, ask your artist to take an audition video for us to see first!"

After she heard it, she wanted to get rid of your mother's nonsense, and said with a smile: "That's good, there is a clean place suitable for two people, I will arrange it."

"Is it? I can chat again, and I can rest when I'm tired. It would be the best to have such a place."

"Yes, there is a place to chat and a place to rest."

Apart from pickled waste, there is probably nothing else in this ugly man's head.This kind of idiot is easy to fool, Lin Zhique took a taxi and took him to the bar where she had been drinking a few times.

First arrange for him to sit down, bring him a wine list considerately, and approach him to introduce which one is unique.

Then, as an excuse to touch up her makeup, she went to the bathroom and called Lu Xiaohua.

The six-to-five game was broadcast live on the TV in the living room.When Lin Zhique and Xu Xinan returned home after their quarrel, she was so angry that she didn't even watch TV, but her mother helped her tune the channel when the time came.

She was lying on the bed and heard Chen Jia say on TV: But the champion is me.

of course.

But since she has broken up with Xu Xinan, she doesn't want to chase stars anymore, let's love whoever.

She turned over and sat up, moved to the computer, logged in to Koukou, clicked on Xu Xinan's dialog box, and typed in: In case you misunderstand, let me explain, what I said today did not mean to offend you...

She stops, long presses, deletes.

Xu Xinan's profile picture is gray, and she is not allowed to use the computer at home.

Retype: I don't think there's anything shameful about being gay, not to mock you today, but whatever you want...

Also weird.Delete again.

It was wrong to write left and right, which was not enough to express her disdainful attitude. At this time, Du Shen called, she was irritable, and she picked it up abruptly, and said to her father: "Mr. busy."

The other side smiled lightly: "You are very elegant in what you said."

She: "What a fart."

Lin Lan passed by her door and was startled by her: "What did you say? Who are you calling?"

Du Shen said: "Father is talking to you about something serious. You see, one day, come over to your house and see grandpa and grandma well."

Lin Zhique was so frightened that he shut up and took a deep breath—he asked her to meet the pair of elderly people who seemed kind.

"I met you at your sister's birthday party last time, but it was in a hurry. There is no one at home recently. You are here. Let's have a good talk with them and have a meal together."

She immediately thought of a hundred words of rejection, but after thinking about it, she remembered those strange text messages and some documents in Du Shen's study.

Du Shen wanted to continue talking, but she hurriedly interrupted him: "Let's talk about it in a few days! I'm going to watch TV, hang up!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Lan asked her who it was, and she replied, "A lunatic."

The "Stars" that Xu Xinan gave her was right at hand, and she flipped through it to send her mother away: "Don't disturb my reading!"

Turning to the page printed on letter paper, she remembered that Xu Xinan had accidentally scratched her own.

What's the big deal?She didn't intend to expose this matter to embarrass her, but she even made a fuss and said she was offensive and unreasonable.Besides, in the 21st century, there is nothing embarrassing about this kind of thing.

She tore off the letter along the dotted line.

After much deliberation, I took up a pen and wrote: Hello, Chen Jia.

The wine was served for five rounds, and Lin Zhique went to the bathroom to vomit three times.She did it on purpose, so she wouldn't get drunk easily if she vomited it out.

In the middle of the second round, the ugly man noticed that she was difficult to handle, so he asked the waiter to bring a dice cup, and wanted to play a game with her, and the loser would drink.

At the end of the third round, the odds of winning were half and half. He was so drunk that he said bluntly in a hurry: "Little beauty, it's alright, I think you know what's on my mind, you're hanging on to me, right? It's okay, let's continue playing, Let's see who gets down first. You win, you take the script. I win, how about you accompany me tonight?"

Lin Zhique just smiled and ordered another round of wine.

The last cup of the fifth round was only half drunk, and Lao Zhou finally couldn't hold it anymore, and rotted into a puddle of oily mud, half hanging on the table and half kneeling on the ground in a sticky posture.

It was she who won, and she dug out the script from his bag.

Mui was still talking inarticulately, she said a lot, she didn't want to listen, and only heard one sentence: "Miss Lin, you are really conscientious."

She finally replied to him: "No, I just think this is still interesting. My responsibility is only up to here, and the rest is up to her."

On the way back, she texted Lu Xiaohua: It's done, thank you Mrs. Lu.

She really admired Lu Xiaohua, she had just called to ask the waiter to take care of her to avoid accidents, but she asked her: Do you want to do something with his wine?

It is really a heroine among women.

When she returned to the hotel, it was very late, and the live broadcast had ended long ago. Li Miaomiao told her the result on the phone, and it was in line with her expectations. According to the old ranking, Tao Lexin was eliminated tonight.

I don't know if Du Siren is going to cry again.

She didn't know that because of being eliminated, Tao Lexin was crying and furious in the background at a loss.Tao Lexin was the first to blame Du Siren for not getting the priority in the first round, so as to fight for a bigger score for their group.Then blame the sound, blame the band for playing too fast, and blame the audience for making her nervous.However, the content of the latter complaints could not be heard at all because she was crying so hard.

Only Dusi who hugged her beside her heard clearly.

Du Siren didn't refute a word, only helped her calm down and protected her 16-year-old self-esteem.

In short, when Lin Zhique returned to the hotel, it was over.

The floor was very quiet, and Du Si was leaning against the door of her room waiting for her.

She found this scene very familiar.

When the people of Dusi saw her coming, the first thing they said was: "You're drinking again."

She was dissatisfied: "What is you?"

"I made a mistake, let me say it again. You're drinking."

"Yes." She said heartlessly, "I heard that your teammates were eliminated?"

Dusi nodded.

"Look, if you are not strong enough, no one will be able to protect you."

Du Siren's eyes flickered.Lin Zhique's mind was no longer clear enough, and of course she couldn't see that she was hurt by her words.

"However, I also won tonight."

"what?"

Dusi spread his hand to her, holding a bookmark made of pressed pink petals.

"I won the flowers you gave me."

She looked at it and found it familiar, but she couldn't remember it.

Du Siren said: "Next time, you can send me flowers too."
