Chapter 69 Earthlings Can't Understand Martian Language
"Teacher Xu, you're welcome to visit the set."
Xu Jinyan smiled and shook hands with the crew's producers as he visited the Chedun Film and Television Base once again.
Not only did they come to see Xiaotian, but they also received an invitation from the production team to create the theme song for the drama.
It wouldn't have mattered whether he accepted the role or not, but since he had caused "harm" to the production team, he had no choice but to come back and take another look.
After the last gathering, Mr. Arthur, the male lead of the film crew, was completely exhausted and had to lie in bed for two whole days to recover.
Wang Yanlin fared slightly better, but he was still listless the next day and couldn't find his rhythm while filming.
The director was dumbfounded when he saw this situation. How could they film the movie if the male actor was in such a state?
Filming is a very time-sensitive business. Actors' schedules have to be reserved in advance, and every day of delay wastes a lot of manpower and funds.
When he complained to the producer, the producer's eyes lit up.
This is a great opportunity; it's so difficult to get Xu Jinyan to write a song for you these days.
It wasn't that their production team didn't extend an invitation; they even invited Tian Xiwei, who has a good relationship with Xu Jinyan, to play the third female lead, but she was politely declined the next day.
Xu Jinyan's team is quite considerate in this regard; if they don't want to answer, they simply don't, and they definitely won't waste your time.
But look at the popular TV dramas of the past few months, such as "The Legend of Huo Yuanjia", "The Last Hero Zheng Chenggong", "Shanghai Storm", and "Eternal Love", which one of them didn't have theme songs personally composed by Xu Jinyan?
As long as the director's work is good, it can truly complement each other.
As the two walked, the producer briefly explained the plot to Xu Jinyan. They arrived at the filming location just as the explanation was finished.
"Cut, that's a pass. Everyone take a break."
When the producer arrived with Xu Jinyan, the crew members reacted in various ways.
Tian Xiwei's eyes lit up and she was about to come over, but Li Yitong grabbed her and she had to stand still, since there were too many people around.
"You came to visit the set empty-handed?"
Xu Jinyan saw her actions and laughed, "How could you come empty-handed? You brought several cases of wine..."
Guan Xiaotong said irritably, "This is the first time I've heard of someone bringing alcohol to the set."
The producer laughed heartily, "I've heard that Jin Yan has a huge capacity for alcohol, and I've been wanting to see for myself. Fei Yu, Yan Lin, we're really in for a treat today... What are you two doing?"
Upon hearing the word "alcohol," Chen Feiyu and Wang Yanlin shuddered, already exhibiting a stress response. They would be no better than dogs if they continued drinking with Xu Jinyan.
Seeing that they couldn't leave, the two quickly pulled the producer to the director's side and asked, "What's going on here today?"
Upon hearing the producer's words, Arthur's eyes lit up. "Am I going to sing the theme song?"
He's so desperate to become famous, he'll do anything for it.
The producer hesitated, saying, "...We're still in talks; they might not take on this project."
Even if your dad is a famous director, he can't control the music industry.
When Xu Jinyan saw them whispering to each other, he also pulled Xiao Tian aside to whisper to each other, and also dragged Li Yitong over as a shield.
The three of them arrived at the RV rented by the film crew. As soon as the door closed, Tian Xiwei squeezed into Xu Jinyan's arms, tilting her head back with her big eyes sparkling with joy.
Xu Jinyan never disappoints; she immediately focuses on getting down to business.
Seeing the two of them start kissing right away, Li Yitong's eyes widened: "Hey, can't you two treat me like a human being?"
"Hehehe," in the end, it was Oda who withdrew from the confrontation, feeling embarrassed.
"I brought you a little gift. I picked it before I came," Xu Jinyan said, snapping her fingers behind Xiaotian's head and "taking out" a rose, which she handed to her.
"Wow, these flowers are so fresh!" Xiaotian happily accepted them.
Li Yitong stared wide-eyed at the sight, "Where did these flowers come from? Is it magic?"
Seeing her surprise, Xu Jinyan reached behind her head with his other hand and snapped his fingers, "You got a share too."
The surprise on Li Yitong's face froze before it could even bloom. She stared blankly at the "white solid" before her, "What...what is this?"
"The plaster on the wall was just peeled off...it looks pretty fresh."
"Pfft," Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh. She only found out about Li Yitong's strange quirk after that day.
Li Yitong took a deep breath and looked at her: "Xiaotian, what did we talk about that day, hmm?"
Tian Xiwei's expression froze as she recalled the topics they had discussed over the past few days: one should not let a man get what he wants so easily, or he will not cherish it.
But as soon as I saw him, I couldn't help myself.
Just as she was hesitating and struggling with her decision, there was a knock on the car door.
"Teacher Xu, a lot of reporters have come to the film set, saying they want to interview you and Teacher Tian."
Xu Jinyan looked at Xiao Tian: "Teacher Tian, let's go then."
Xiao Tian became a little nervous. "Why don't you go by yourself? I'm afraid the reporters will notice something."
"It's okay, so what if they can tell?" Xu Jinyan has no intention of creating a single persona.
What can you do if you're not married?
In the end, Li Yitong accompanied Xiaotian along.
"Xu Jinyan, Tian Xiwei, what are your thoughts on Zhang Bichen winning the championship?"
Seeing the gossip gleam in the eyes of the reporters before him, Xu Jinyan straightened his expression and gave a firm fist-and-palm salute to the camera: "Congratulations!"
Tian Xiwei and Li Yitong immediately lowered their heads, and the tension from before vanished instantly.
Then, Xiaotian, mimicking his expression, smiled brightly and said, "Congratulations, Zhang Bichen."
Then, the reporters focused their attention directly on Xu Jinyan: "Xu Jinyan, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Object?"
Is it that intense? Then don't blame me.
The reporter nodded: "Yes."
"There are some!"
What are some of these things?
"...Xu Jinyan, what do you think of Tian Xiwei? What are your feelings for her?"
Xu Jinyan turned to look at Xiao Tian, whose face was beginning to flush slightly, and said with a smile, "She's great, perfect as a girlfriend!"
"Wow!"
Numerous reporters scrambled to take photos, capturing the smiling faces of Hsu Chin-yen and Tien Hsi-wei.
Seeing how effective Xu Jinyan was, they all intensified their efforts:
Have you ever applauded for love?
Upon hearing this question, Xu Jinyan doubted her ears, wondering if she had asked the wrong person.
He asked again, confirming, "What did you say?"
The reporter repeated the question and said, "We also asked Hua Chenyu this question."
"Oh, so what was his answer?"
The reporter played Hua Chenyu's answer for him again.
Then he looked at Xu Jinyan: It's your turn to answer.
"His answer..." Xu Jinyan shook her head after reading it: "I can't agree with his point of view."
The reporters excitedly brought their microphones close. "Then you go ahead and tell us!"
"Personally, I think this pasta should be mixed with No. 42 concrete," he said, gesturing as he spoke, seeing everyone listening attentively.
"Because the length of this screw can easily and directly affect the excavator's torque, you know?"
"When you throw it in, it instantly produces a large amount of high-energy proteins... commonly known as UFOs."
"It will seriously affect economic development, and may even cause some pollution to the Pacific Ocean and the charging station..."
Watching Xu Jinyan speak fluently, the reporters encountered the biggest challenge of their careers: they didn't have enough knowledge.
They followed Xu Jinyan, jumping from one knowledge point to another, feeling that he was learning too many different things.
"...none of this will affect Walmart's rendezvous with Wilcon in Antarctica."
After he finished speaking, everyone was still frowning and thinking, their CPUs were practically overheating.
It is evident that when an excessive amount of absurdity is piled up, it can always bring about some philosophical reflections.
Seeing that the conversation was about to fall flat, a reporter finally mustered up the courage to say, "Professor Xu...you are very knowledgeable."
Xu Jinyan maintained her expressionless state with immense willpower:
"...I know a little bit about everything."
