Chapter 521: Once promised to be the best in the world
Chapter 521: Once Promised to Be the Best in the World
Night falls slowly.
The lights at the Shanghai Film and Television Base lit up one after another, illuminating the set as if it were daytime.
The sounds of busy footsteps and low conversations of staff could be heard in the distance, and the air was filled with a tense yet orderly atmosphere.
In the locker room, under the warm yellow light.
Tang Song stood in front of the floor-length mirror, took the costumes handed to him by the staff, and put them on one by one.
A dark grey British formal three-piece suit with a light and soft white shirt underneath.
The clothes fit him very well, with smooth lines and close to his body shape, perfectly outlining the perfect proportions of his broad shoulders and narrow waist, making his facial features even more handsome.
Coupled with her confident and noble temperament, she looks more like a star than a star.
This could be seen from the surprised looks cast by the makeup artists when he walked out of the locker room.
Cheng Xiaoxi, who was waiting quietly on the side, couldn't help but sigh: Sister Yu has a really good eye.
Seeing Tang Song coming, she quickly collected her thoughts and said respectfully, "Boss Tang, the crew is ready. I'll take you there."
"Okay, thank you." Tang Song nodded slightly, picked up the script on the table, and followed Cheng Xiaoxi out.
The filming location was set in the elevator room of the office building at the film and television base. The plot tells the sweet interaction between him and the heroine Li Chu during their passionate love period.
Due to the complexity of the scene and the need to coordinate multiple departments, there were more staff on site than before, making it particularly lively.
As soon as he walked into the lobby, Tang Song saw Su Yu sitting in the lounge area.
The light shone on her body, her skin was as delicate as mutton-fat jade, exuding a charming luster, her long dark green hair was spread out, revealing a casual and lazy charm.
White long-sleeved base shirt, tight pencil pants, and white sneakers.
The simple outfit is concise yet high-end, outlining the perfect figure to the fullest.
The exquisite facial features are like a painting, the eyebrows are like paintings, and the lips are like red clouds.
Every contour looks like a masterpiece carefully carved by God.
It makes you hold your breath involuntarily.
Tang Song's heartbeat began to accelerate, and he felt like a boy in love, both expectant and nervous.
This is the strength that has enabled her to top the list of “The Most Beautiful Faces in Asia Pacific” for four consecutive years.
Su Yu should be the most beautiful girl he has ever seen, a truly divine face.
Even Secretary Kim is a little lacking in looks.
As if noticing his approach, Su Yu raised her head and looked over, a charming smile blooming at the corners of her lips.
"Here it comes." Her voice was soft and lazy, like the whisper of lovers.
"Ah."
Su Yu stood up and looked at him, a little crazy: "So handsome."
After saying that, she walked straight up to him and gently helped him straighten his collar.
When no one was paying attention, her slender white fingers gently brushed across his Adam's apple, accompanied by a slight gasp, and every detail was precise and in place.
As a top film queen, her sense of propriety is perfect and her sexual tension is at its peak.
Tang Song's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he was directly immersed in the role he was going to film today.
Holy shit! What a goblin!
The two just sat down in the lounge area.
A young girl, who was working as a field attendant, came over timidly, holding a notebook in her hand, with a look of nervousness and anticipation on her face.
"Sister Yu... Sister Yu... can you sign an autograph for me?"
Su Yu smiled slightly when he heard this, and looked at her softly: "Of course."
She reached out and took the notebook, her tone friendly and warm, "What's your name?"
"I... my name is Wen Yu. I'm your loyal fan. I've liked you for a long time. It's because of you that I entered this industry." The girl answered a little uncomfortably, her voice trembling slightly with nervousness.
"Thank you Xiaoyu for your continued support." Su Yu said as he signed his name in the notebook and wrote a word of encouragement.
After getting the autograph, Wen Yu's eyes reddened with excitement. He thanked Tang Song repeatedly, bowed to him, and then carefully retreated.
She had wanted to get Su Yu's autograph since she first joined the group, but because of the huge difference in status and the fact that Su Yu was a bit aloof, she had never dared to come over.
But since she heard that some friends visited the set yesterday, this movie queen seemed to be in a good mood and was particularly gentle to everyone.
I plucked up the courage to try it today, and I didn’t expect it to be so successful.
Watch her leaving.
Tang Song suddenly asked, "Su Yu, do you have any autographed photos? My friend is a die-hard fan of yours from the days of the Echo girl group. Give me two, and write some words of encouragement on them. Um...if possible, write more on one of them."
If it weren’t for this little episode, he would have almost forgotten about the surprise he was going to give to Sister Qiuqiu.
This designer with a dark heart almost regards Su Yu as a belief.
If Su Yu wrote a blessing message to her personally, it might help the [Dream Flower Seed] grow a lot.
Of course, he did not forget his cosplayer girlfriend Qingqing.
She is known as the Little Su Yu in the cosplay world, and is also a die-hard fan of Su Yu.
With this surprise, I will definitely be able to unlock some new poses when I go back.
Su Yu keenly realized the crux of the problem, "Boy or girl? Two people?"
"Two girls." Tang Song's expression was a little unnatural.
Su Yu raised the corners of her lips slightly, and suddenly leaned close to his ear. Her warm breath brushed over his ear, carrying a faint scent of perfume.
Her voice was as soft as a feather. "That depends on how Teacher Tang Song performs next. As long as I am satisfied, everything is fine."
After just one day of spending time together, the film queen has already accurately grasped Tang Song's weaknesses and temper.
Very targeted.
Tang Song took a deep breath, his Adam's apple rolling unconsciously, "Okay! You wait!"
A few minutes later, the second shot officially began.
As the director's voice came through the intercom, the elevator door slowly closed, isolating the outside noise.
The only sounds left in the car were the two people's gentle breathing.
In the enclosed space, the ceiling light casts a warm yellow halo, adding a romantic filter to the entire scene.
Tang Song turned his back to the camera, pressed the elevator button, pulled out a crimson rose from his suit pocket, and handed it to Su Yu like a magic trick.
Su Yu took the rose, lowered her head and sniffed it, with an intoxicated smile on her lips: "I like it very much."
Although the lines are simple, she performed them in a very infectious way, as if she was really immersed in a happy love.
The next second, Tang Song suddenly pushed her against the mirror on the elevator wall.
Su Yu cooperated by letting out a perfect exclamation, and the rose trembled slightly between the two of them.
Tang Song placed one hand on her ear and clasped her wrist with the other.
He leaned over and kissed her slender, white neck.
Su Yu let out a sweet moan, her amber eyes filled with confusion and intoxication.
"Cut!" Director Lin Mochuan was very tactful this time and took the initiative to suggest: "One more take, Gu Heng (guest role), the kissing scene should be slower, I want a close-up of this moment!"
"Okay, director." Tang Song nodded.
The two slowly let go of each other.
"Action!"
"No, Gu Heng, you should show possessiveness..."
"Wait, let's save one more! Li Chu's look just now was amazing!"
Thanks to yesterday's experience and the fact that he had no lines today, Tang Song's performance was very smooth and he was acting completely in his true colors.
After three or four times, the two of them cooperated more and more tacitly, and basically had no shortcomings.
However, the demanding movie queen doesn’t see it that way.
Su Yu stood behind the monitor, his eyes calm and his brows furrowed as he said, "No, they are a couple in love, in the most passionate stage, their performance is too reserved."
Lin Mochuan thought for a moment and tentatively suggested: "Then... be more radical? You can add some physical friction, collision, and kneading."
Su Yu nodded and said calmly, "Well, let's try it."
A new round of shooting begins.
The elevator door closed again, and Tang Song gave flowers, dodged against the wall, and kissed, all in one smooth action.
This time, Su Yu raised her beautiful face and inserted her slender right leg between his thighs.
The two bodies fit together perfectly.
It seems to be to better mobilize the actors' emotions.
She put her lips close to the amateur Tang Song's ear and whispered softly: "Fuck - I love you so much...mm~"
The sexy, hoarse voice ran through the spine like an electric current, like the most powerful aphrodisiac.
"Boom——" Tang Song's heart instantly burned and he was instantly immersed in the play.
The hands began to wander and squeeze.
Compass-like long legs, a perky butt, and a tall and round Nanako...
The rose fell and its petals scattered.
Her hands were tightly held by Tang Song's right hand and pressed against the bright elevator mirror.
With blurred eyes, trembling body and rapid breathing, the infatuation of love is perfectly interpreted.
Tang and Song devoted themselves to art.
It also fulfilled the actress's desire to break through herself.
……
As the lights come on, the Bund's international buildings are covered in a gilded halo in the night.
The taxi stopped in front of Three on the Bund.
Shen Yuyan got out of the car and took the elevator directly to the Jean Georges restaurant on the top floor.
Pushing open the heavy glass door, you are greeted by soft warm light and elegant background music.
Follow the waiter into the restaurant.
From a distance, I saw Qiu Sirou sitting by the window.
I haven't seen her for a year. She looks more radiant than what I saw on WeChat Moments and in videos.
She was obviously doing very well.
"Yuyan! Over here!" When Qiu Sirou saw Shen Yuyan coming, she raised the corners of her lips slightly, raised the champagne glass and gestured gently.
Shen Yuyan smiled as she came to the dining table and put her handbag aside. "Sorry, I had a call with my boss before leaving, which delayed me a bit."
"It doesn't matter. The night view of the Magic City is worth waiting for. By the way, you are your own boss, so who else do you have to lead?"
"The leader of an investment company." Shen Yuyan shrugged helplessly, pulled out a chair and sat down gracefully, her skirt outlining the curve of her plump hips.
The waiter immediately came forward and poured her a glass of champagne.
Shen Yuyan thanked him and shook towards Qiu Sirou, "Come on, for our first meal after our reunion, Cheers!"
"Ding~" The two clinked their glasses gently, and the bubbles of the champagne flickered in the candlelight.
Qiu Sirou took a sip of champagne and couldn't help but sighed, "You are still so beautiful. I envy you every time I see you."
As she spoke, she looked her old friend up and down. She was wearing a well-cut Max Mara business suit, with delicate but not exaggerated makeup, and her every move exuded elegance and confidence.
"It's hard to give up one's natural beauty, haha." Shen Yuyan winked playfully, and the two smiled at each other.
The appetizer arrived quickly - foie gras with sour cherries and candied walnuts.
As the two reminisced about the past and ate delicious food, they gradually regained the familiar feeling of the past.
The topic quickly turned to current work and life.
Qiu Sirou also gained a deeper understanding of Shen Yuyan's current situation from her description, and her eyes were filled with emotion.
She actually admired this former colleague very much. Not only her, but also the company's leaders and colleagues were impressed by this former HR.
Yancheng University of Science and Technology is not on P&G's list of target universities for campus recruitment, and the basic requirement for Shen Yuyan's position is a graduate from a 985 university.
For an ordinary first-class university like Yankee University, there is no chance at all.
Shen Yuyan was first recommended by one of her seniors, and then she went directly to the imperial capital with her resume and attended a recruitment seminar at a university, competing on the same stage with others.
He broke into P&G with his excellent interview performance and foreign language skills.
Qiu Sirou is a management trainee at Sun Yat-sen University, responsible for the MT project of the Yancheng Marketing Department, and Shen Yuyan is the HR supporting the project.
The two of them became acquainted with each other because of this.
Shen Yuyan worked in basic recruitment at the Yancheng branch, and was recognized by senior leaders for his outstanding performance.
In order to make up for the gap in academic qualifications, she also obtained SHRM (Specialized in Human Resources Management) and CFA Level 1 (Chartered Financial Analyst).
More than two years ago, Shen Yuyan resigned from his job to start his own business.
The senior leader had talked to her several times, wanting her to stay, and promised to transfer her to the Shanghai headquarters within a year to be in charge of the high-potential talent development program.
But she still resolutely chose to start a business, wanting to take a chance on financial freedom.
Qiu Sirou and Shen Yuyan have always been in contact, so she naturally knows that the other party's Youjie Housekeeping is not progressing smoothly.
……
After dinner, the two crossed the road and strolled along the Bund.
The night breeze from the Huangpu River is cool, and the surrounding area is crowded with people and filled with laughter.
"Yuyan." Qiu Sirou looked at Shen Yuyan's delicate profile and said softly, "In fact, I always feel that staying in P&G is a better choice. With your talent and emotional intelligence, if you can return to a big platform like P&G, you will definitely have more room for development."
P&G is a giant in the fast-moving consumer goods industry. It has many female executives and a complete promotion system. Although internal competition is fierce, for people like Shen Yuyan, it is like a fish in water.
"There is no standard answer in life, Sirou." Shen Yuyan was silent for a moment and then said, "I just don't want to give up and want to take a gamble."
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been the most dazzling and eye-catching one.
However, after entering society, she saw herself gradually being swallowed up by mediocrity. She was unwilling to accept this and would not allow herself to be overwhelmed by the torrent of mundaneity.
This great ambition drove her to burn her boats and exchange her youth for a chance to reach a higher prospect.
Maybe one day in the future, she will be able to become a strong woman who is admired by everyone like her idol.
"Boom--" A low and shocking roar of the engine interrupted their thoughts.
Stop and look back.
In the night, a matte gray Lamborghini whizzed past, and its iconic taillights drew a dazzling trail in the night.
Passersby stopped, some took pictures, some talked about it, and the whole street was instantly ignited by this car.
"Lamborghini Aventador SVJ 63, a supercar worth tens of millions..." Qiu Sirou couldn't help but sighed, "There is really no shortage of rich people in Magic City. If you give me so much money, I will buy a house directly with full payment, haha."
Her boyfriend is a car fan and his rental house is filled with various car models. His favorite is this limited edition Lamborghini, so she is very familiar with this car.
After watching the dazzling gray shadow completely disappear, Shen Yuyan slowly withdrew his gaze, feeling something in his heart.
"It's so beautiful!" Qiu Sirou looked up and forward, exclaiming sincerely.
Shen Yuyan followed her gaze and saw Lujiazui at night, with tall buildings everywhere and neon lights reflected on the river, like a never-ending light show.
Each skyscraper is like a huge crystal, shining brightly in the darkness.
"It is very beautiful." Shen Yuyan agreed in a low voice, then leaned on the railing, letting the river breeze blow her long hair
Qiu Sirou pursed her lips and murmured as if she was lost in memories: "The scenery here is completely different from Yancheng, so I chose to stay here."
She is a native of Yancheng. After graduation, she worked in Yancheng for two years. Later, by chance, she was transferred to the headquarters in Modu.
Now, she has fallen deeply in love with this magnificent metropolis.
Drink coffee, carry CHANEL, eat Fine Dining, visit Galeries Lafayette…
I fantasize about owning a house of my own here in the future and staying here forever.
"It's not enough to just stay here." Shen Yuyan suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean?" Qiu Sirou looked at her puzzledly.
Shen Yuyan was silent for a moment, and pointed her slender fingers at the skyscrapers in front of her, "Si Rou, at this moment, behind the glass curtain walls of those tall buildings, there are people in suits and leather shoes, talking calmly about topics that can change the direction of society.
Finance, investment, technology, policy...
They stood above the clouds, looking down at the Huangpu River with interest, and also looking down at people like us who seemed insignificant.”
She opened her arms, the evening breeze filled her sleeves, and her voice was filled with a desire that was hard to conceal: "You must know that young people have lofty ambitions and have promised to be the best in the world."
In the distance, the laser beams from the World Financial Center pierced the night sky, drawing dazzling tracks among the clouds.
"Have you never thought that one day you would be able to stand on top of a tall building and see with your own eyes what the world really looks like?"
"Have you never fantasized about being the one who controls the overall situation and leads the trend?"
Her voice was almost blown away by the river breeze, but the light in her eyes was brighter than the lights on the other side of the river.
Qiu Sirou stared at her in a daze, shocked by the strong appeal and speechless for a moment.
……
At 9:50 in the evening, Shen Yuyan returned to the executive suite of the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
I took a quick shower, wrapped myself in a bathrobe, and lay down on the sofa in front of the window, lost in thought.
"Ding-ling-ling——" The ringing of a cell phone suddenly broke the silence in the room.
Shen Yuyan glanced at the screen and frowned slightly.
【Mingjian Capital-Wang Yubo】
But soon, her expression returned to calm.
When the call was connected, his voice was already filled with just the right amount of enthusiasm: "Hello, Mr. Wang, why haven't you gone to bed yet so late? Is there anything I can help you with?"
Loud music and faint laughter came from the other end of the receiver.
Wang Yubo's voice was a little drunken, and his tone was relaxed and casual: "Yuyan, have you finished dinner with your friends? How was your fun today?"
Shen Yuyan raised a slight smile at the corner of her mouth, her tone gentle but polite: "Well, I just returned to Jinmao Grand Hyatt. Thank you very much for your arrangement, Mr. Wang. This is my first time staying in such a high-end hotel."
"Haha, I'm glad you like it! I'm meeting up with my friends at a bar right now. I've sent you the location on WeChat. Come over and sit with us. Let's chat and relax."
Shen Yuyan said calmly: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Mr. Wang. I drank a lot of wine when I was having dinner with friends tonight. Now I feel a little dizzy. I'm really afraid that I can't hold on. And we still have a meeting tomorrow. In order not to delay things, we must rest early tonight."
"Oh?" Wang Yubo paused, and raised his voice slightly, "Are you sure you don't want to come?"
Shen Yuyan pursed her lips and said, "Sorry, next time——"
"Haha, okay, bye." Wang Yubo didn't give her a chance to continue explaining and hung up the phone directly.
Shen Yuyan put down his phone silently, looking at the blurry night scene outside the window, and a figure seemed to appear in front of him.
"Tang and Song..."
Sighing, she was about to stand up.
"Ding Dong——" the WeChat notification sound rang.
[Qingqing: "(Person)☆A cute little fairy appeared"]
[Qingqing: "Yanyan, are you asleep? I have a big news for you!"]
Shen Yuyan smiled and replied: "I haven't slept yet, what's the news?"
[Qingqing: "I just found out from my video chat with Tang Song that he is also in Shanghai! Isn't this a coincidence?"]
Shen Yuyan was startled, his eyes widened instantly, and he asked quickly: "Where does he live?"
【Qingqing: "I didn't ask that. You know I don't know anything about the Magic City. Why would I ask that?"】
Shen Yuyan: "When will he leave?"
【Qingqing: "I'm not sure, but it will definitely be after the 8th, and he will stay for a few more days. You are in Shanghai, you can go play with him when you are free. By the way, help me see if there are any other girls around him."】
Shen Yuyan replied with an emoticon, quickly returned to the main interface, and clicked on the pinned chat box.
After thinking about it, I directly clicked on Xu Qing's emoticon.
……
Suhewan OCT.
"Buzzing—"
[Shen Yuyan: "─=≡Σ(((つω)つdynamic light wave beep beep!!!"]
[Shen Yuyan: "Hello, handsome guy, I just heard from Qingqing that you are also in Shanghai? What a coincidence, when are you free, let's meet up."]
Tang Song smiled and tapped his fingertips on the keyboard: "Okay, but I'm a little busy these two days. I'll contact you when I'm free."
He doesn't usually check his Moments, especially since he has been busy with Su Yu's affairs these days, and he just found out that Shen Yuyan is here.
Recalling the memory in my dream, the dazzling and popular campus beauty Shen in college, I felt a little touched.
After chatting with Shen Yuyan for a few more sentences, he checked the time and said good night.
Tang Song turned off the lights and lay on the bed.
Close your eyes and let your breathing gradually become steady.
The moonlight outside the window shines through the gauze curtains, casting mottled shadows on the floor.
My consciousness gradually became blurred, and tiny sounds began to appear in my ears, as if coming from far away.
The harsh sound of metal rubbing against each other was mixed with the girl's intermittent cries.
The sound came and went, as if it was coming from a layer of frosted glass.
Gradually, the picture began to become clear.
Pale lights flickered overhead, and the smell of disinfectant mixed with some kind of decayed smell.
This is a hospital corridor with no end in sight. The wall paint is peeling off, revealing the yellowed putty inside.
The doors of the wards on both sides were half open, and the messy beds and hanging IV bottles could be vaguely seen inside.
In the shadows at the end of the corridor, a thin figure was curled up.
The girl lowered her head, the collar of her school uniform was crooked, and her long hair covered half of her face.
He was biting his thumb nail nervously and muttering something.
Compared to the previous dream, Qiuqiu was obviously older this time, and her bulging curves were faintly visible under her school uniform.
The leather shoes made a "tapping" sound when they stepped on the old floor.
"Qiuqiu?"
Qiuqiu felt a ray of warm sunlight suddenly shining on her.
She suddenly raised her head, her eyes widened, and she shouted excitedly: "Dad...save my mother-in-law...they said they will remove the tube if you don't pay..."
