For this short and somewhat rough documentary, online comments are divided. Qin Wei hesitated before, wanting more people to know about the local opera here. The reason is simple: she simply thinks it sounds good. If more people know, there might be someone who appreciates it, and it won't silently fade into oblivion.
As for being accused of riding on the popularity, she has considered that too, so she sought Qiao Sixiao's opinion before filming.
"I think it's great. Art always comes with misinterpretation. If everyone can understand everything you do, it means your work is meaningless," Qiao Sixiao said to her.
Trapped in the mountain village in the morning, the two sat on the porch in front of Auntie's little house, watching the pouring rain and discussing their choice of subject matter for their project, expressing their own opinions.
Qin Wei sighed, "Working so hard on something, and all I get is doubt. It can really discourage me."
Qiao Sixiao glanced at her and said, "Do it. Do what you believe is worth doing. I see your efforts, and I understand what you're doing. Now I want to join in, which means you've influenced me. You can also influence more people. They will know what you're doing."
The light of a firefly may not reach far,
But even so, it has its brilliance.
...
The field trip went smoothly, and the artists left the inn in batches, heading back to the capital. Regardless of praise or criticism, that matter had already turned a page.
Due to work reasons, Youyou left first, and Qin Wei started packing her luggage. In a few hours, she would also take a car to catch a flight. According to her schedule, she had another endorsement to sign when she got back.
Before that, she needed to find a hospital for therapy, all thanks to Qiao Sixiao. He must reimburse her for the expenses!
Before she finished packing, someone knocked on the door.
It was probably Qiao Sixiao. This guy with the surname Qiao really couldn't stand being talked about.
She went to open the door, and Qin Wei was a little surprised, "Li Yao? Why are you here?"
Li Yao saw her and immediately smiled, then he pulled her and introduced the person next to him, "This is He Hong, Qiao Sixiao's agent."
Qin Wei looked at the other person. She appeared to be a woman in her forties and looked good. She was tall and wore a decent professional outfit. She had a neat ponytail and looked spirited.
And as an agent, her presence was overpowering...
Then she looked at Li Yao.
Qin Wei couldn't help but ask, "Why does someone's agent look so beautiful?"
Li Yao: "..."
He Hong took the initiative to introduce herself, "Miss Qin Wei, hello, I am Qiao Sixiao's agent, He Hong."
Qin Wei nodded and shook hands with her, "Hello, I am actress Qin Wei. Um... Qiao Sixiao is in the room next door..."
He Hong nodded, "I know.
Would you mind inviting me in for a while?"
Qin Wei suddenly realized that she was being impolite. It was mainly because Li Yao's sudden arrival caught her off guard, and he also brought Qiao Sixiao's agent.
And this agent seemed to be here for reasons other than Qiao Sixiao...
Qin Wei's mind was filled with thoughts of what they were going to do, to the point where she forgot basic etiquette.
Realizing this, Qin Wei immediately stepped aside to let them in and said, "Please come in, I'm sorry... the room is a bit messy."
He Hong nodded and walked in, finding a place to sit. Li Yao followed closely behind, and Qin Wei frantically gestured at him, asking him what was going on.
Li Yao remained silent but signaled for her to quickly go and sit down.
Qin Wei obediently went to sit down...
He Hong didn't speak, but there was an invisible pressure emanating from her...
"Miss Qin, I've seen all the efforts you've made to make a comeback during this period of time. I admire your ability to reverse public opinion and regain business opportunities," He Hong said without any hint of joy or anger. Qin Wei swallowed nervously. She realized she had wasted her agency skills; did He Hong really not consider taking the throne?
Qin Wei awkwardly nodded and responded, "Uh... thank you..."
Then, the door was opened with a key, and Qiao Sixiao walked in with a smile. Seeing the three of them sitting around the coffee table, she couldn't help but frown.
"Mom? What are you doing here?" Qin Wei exclaimed in confusion.
Qin Wei: "?????"
Qin Wei: "!!!!!!!"
Qin Wei: "?!?!?!"
Qin Wei: "!?!?!"
"Mom?"
Qin Wei looked at Qiao Sixiao and then at He Hong. They did resemble each other a bit, but Qiao Sixiao was even more striking. Her mom had taken good care of herself and looked so young!!! If they didn't stand together, she would never have guessed their relationship.
He Hong nodded without denying it.
...
When Youyou left, she was still worried that her senior sister might be absent-minded and lose the key to her room. Since each room only had two keys, she wouldn't be able to return to her room if she lost it. So, she deliberately left her own key with Qiao Sixiao. After all, Qiao Sixiao had a good relationship with her senior sister and had a bit more sense. Only Xiao Qiao was left.
Qiao Sixiao accepted the key and thought that Qin Wei should be packing her luggage at this time. She planned to remind her not to be absent-minded, but Qin Wei didn't answer her calls or messages. So, she came over with the key to check on her.
And that's how the current scene came about.
When He Hong saw Qiao Sixiao, she didn't seem surprised. She remained calm and raised her hand to signal for her to come over.
Qiao Sixiao didn't say anything either. She silently closed the door and sat down next to He Hong.
He Hong said, "I know everything."
Qin Wei's usually sharp mind was spinning rapidly at this moment. What's going on? What does she know? Why don't I know??
He Hong continued, "I rushed here overnight because both the company and I take this matter very seriously."
What, what, what? What matter is so serious?
"Having Li Yao and me come together is because we think it's a matter concerning both families, and we should face it together," He Hong said, lightly patting her daughter's shoulder.
Since Qiao Sixiao entered, she had been wearing a stern expression and remained silent.
Qin Wei instantly understood.
Oh, oh, oh! They've shipped the two of them together. They've been promoting it too frequently, dancing too fiercely. Her mom couldn't stand it anymore and must have misunderstood that they were actually dating!
Mistake, mistake. She didn't consider the feelings of the other party's parents.
But speaking of her own family...
Qin Wei's family information is well protected to the extent that nothing can be found online. It's even strange that there is no mention of her family's contact number in her phone, let alone the address on shopping platforms. Everything is registered under her current information, making it difficult to discreetly and naturally contact her family.
Qin Wei has also thought about this issue, but she can't possibly ask Li Yao:
"Can you take me to meet my parents? I don't have their contact information."
Li Yao would definitely say:
"Can't you do it yourself?"
Should she really say:
"I don't even know them."
???
Moreover, what would she say after meeting them? Would she be discovered the moment she opens her mouth?
After all, she has no idea how to interact with parents she has never met before.
Fortunately, her parents have never contacted her during this period. Perhaps, like her past life, the family ties became very weak later on...
And she is currently living a chaotic life, so she let the matter go.
Qin Wei sighed, why is she bothering herself with these thoughts? Is it appropriate to think about these things now!?
"Regarding the image of Southwest tourism..."
"Auntie, Qiao Sixiao and I are not really..."
Both parties were momentarily stunned, then they asked each other,
"What do you mean by 'not really'?"
"What Southwest tourism?"
