Chapter 4
First Encounter with a Celestial Being
"This is the latest Canon G3; it can shoot anything!"
Li Yang is the kind of naive person who doesn't have any ulterior motives towards anyone. If he looked like Su Yu, he would definitely be considered a warm-hearted guy.
Unfortunately, his looks aren't up to par, so he's often mistaken for a random roadside goblin or some kind of fiery goblin.
So when Su Yu agreed to the other party's request to film, Li Yang couldn't wait to show off, his words full of pride.
In fact, he did the right thing, and it was indeed a very impressive thing to do.
It's important to understand that most people in this era only earn a few thousand yuan a year.
Let alone buying a digital camera.
Even buying a slightly expensive piece of clothing requires great care.
Of course, there are indeed some people who live very free lives and have some spare money.
But they didn't earn that money.
Su Yu actually made a fortune by using a trick to get something for nothing, and even made more than ten times his initial investment of only three thousand yuan. Who wouldn't praise him for being awesome?
When Liu Xiaoli was a dancer, her monthly salary was only a little over 500 yuan, which averaged only a few dozen yuan a day.
Although making money wasn't that important to her, hearing that Su Yu had doubled their initial investment in just one day was quite a surprise to her.
Especially after hearing Li Yang vividly describe how Su Yu had swindled the taxi driver out of a sum of money with just a few words, Su Yu's image in Liu Xiaoli's mind became much more impressive.
"You two are only eighteen, right? Starting business so early? What do your families do?"
"Actually, we were both actors in 'The Grand Mansion Gate' at the beginning," Li Yang muttered in a low voice.
Liu Xiaoli was taken aback by his words. "The Grand Mansion Gate? Why did you two stop being actors?"
Li Yang shrugged. "Brother Yu thinks there aren't many opportunities there. It's better to be a director than an actor for someone else."
"Wow, that's amazing! I'd like to see your filming skills later."
It must be said that Liu Xiaoli herself is quite beautiful; she captivated Li Yang with just a few words.
Su Yu remained an observer, a faint smile on his face, without saying a word.
After all, the meaning of life boils down to two things.
Scream.
Try to avoid getting scolded.
Although he didn't understand why Li Yang insisted on helping him put on this secondhand act, he still provided a lot of emotional value.
But most of his attention was focused on Liu Yifei.
Today she wore a beige long dress, her raised arm was as white as snow, her eyes under her thick eyelashes were lively and watery, her red lips were full, and her smooth black hair fell naturally, shining like a bright pearl in the sunlight.
Her bones and flesh were perfectly balanced, and every inch of her skin was so beautiful.
She was looking around curiously, her eyes sparkling like a lively little white kitten.
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, seemingly understanding those fans somewhat now.
Liu Yifei, a legend among female celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry, an unyielding super-strong performer, and the white moonlight of countless young men and women.
It is said that her father is a high-ranking official and her family background is extremely strong; either of them is someone that ordinary people cannot reach.
Some say Liu Xiaoli's decision to divorce was a mistake, others say she didn't need her family's resources to become famous, and still others say her parents' divorce was a sham...
In short, there are all sorts of opinions, but you can only listen to them at most.
However, Liu Yifei does have an ethereal and otherworldly aura. She appears aloof and unapproachable, and doesn't like to talk when she's out.
It is precisely because of this aloof attitude, coupled with her past marketing efforts, that she is often misunderstood. In fact, she calls herself a "loser".
Whether she's a goddess or a downtrodden girl, she truly represents the youth of countless people.
From "The Story of a Noble Family" to "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils"...
There are many female stars in the Chinese entertainment industry, and many of them have become famous, but they still pale in comparison to Liu Yifei.
Even in their past lives, when Su Yu and she met by chance, Su Yu was already in his thirties, but Liu Yifei was still stunning.
God is so unfair, He's been relentlessly feeding Liu Yifei.
But I'm already so handsome!
Su Yu raised an eyebrow, feeling there was really nothing he could do but mourn for those artists in advance.
At the same time, Liu Yifei noticed that someone was watching her, so she tilted her head.
She raised an eyebrow and glanced over indifferently.
The moment her eyes met Su Yu's, her eyelashes trembled slightly, then she pouted and looked away.
It really looks good.
Su Yu gave a very fair assessment, leaning against the door frame, waiting for Liu Xiaoli to finish her makeup.
Photos are meant to be kept for a lifetime, so you can't just slap them together casually, especially since the two of them are about to go to the United States, and this is the last time they will take photos in China.
Before leaving, I will also take a trip to Wuxi.
As Su Yu listened to their plan, his gaze inadvertently fell on Liu Yifei, who suddenly leaned closer.
"Could I borrow your camera to take a look?"
"?"
"It's nothing, I've never seen it before, I just wanted to see it."
Never seen a camera before?
With your family's circumstances, how could you possibly lack this thing?
Just as Su Yu was slightly stunned, Liu Xiaoli's voice suddenly came over.
"Liu Yifei, stand still and don't disturb their work."
"I'll just take a look..."
Su Yu then came to his senses and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
It seems the rumors are true.
Liu Xiaoli really cares about Liu Yifei and has been cultivating her into a well-bred young lady.
However, Su Yu didn't care about any of that.
Just as Liu Xiaoli was about to finish her makeup, Li Yang suddenly pulled Su Yu outside the door in a furtive manner and coughed.
"Brother Yu, how should we film this?"
Su Yu waved the digital camera in his hand. "How do you take pictures? Of course, you use this. Are you going to draw them both?"
Li Yang stared nervously at the digital camera in Su Yu's hand, swallowing hard. "But I don't know how to use this thing!"
"You don't need to know how, just wait on the sidelines. Later, praise the mother and daughter a lot; they're so beautiful, how can you not appreciate that? You understand emotional value?"
"I get it... it's just lying!"
Su Yu's gaze sharpened after hearing this. "You call this lying? How incredibly high are your standards?"
Li Yang chuckled, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Actually, I still prefer Zhou Xun's type."
"Do you like things to be set in stone?"
"You don't understand, that's such an old contrast."
After hearing Su Yu's words, Li Yang felt relieved and even thought he had gone to great lengths.
Brother Yu is so awesome, he must have thought this through long ago...
I just asked that one question...
"Brother Yu, when did you learn photography? I didn't know that." Li Yang asked.
Su Yu raised an eyebrow casually. "I haven't studied it."
"?"
"But I've read the instruction manual, so don't worry, at worst it'll be free."
"???"
