Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 26 It turns out I'm not the only one

"Thank you!"

There was a hint of surprise and joy in Liu Yifei's eyes.

When Gu Bei contacted her, he told her that he was there to give her a gift, but she didn't expect Gu Bei to take it out at this time.

She took it with some excitement, then noticed the shape of the small red box, which became more and more strange the more she looked at it.

He paused, "Is there something strange in there?"

Gu Bei was stunned when he heard this.

Then he laughed softly.

Could this girl be thinking that there were necklaces, rings, or something like that inside?
I feel a little down.

"What strange gift have you ever received?"

“Not really.”

Liu Yifei smiled embarrassedly.

She just thought the box looked familiar, like a jewelry box.

"If you feel bad, you can give me the money.

"The souvenir is $39.99, plus 10% sales tax and tip, so it's $50," Gu Bei said frankly.

"There are tips at the souvenir counter?" Liu Yifei immediately retorted.

“That’s my shopping tip!”

Gu Beili was not right but was very confident, "I flew across most of North America with it."

When Liu Yifei heard this, her heart warmed slightly.

The value of a souvenir itself is not very important, but it is a way for your relatives and friends to show that they are still thinking of you when you are away from home, and it has more emotional value.

She opened the box carefully.

Inside is a small square of black terrazzo with a pink star embedded in the center of the stone.

Her name 'ZHOU XI XI' is written in the middle of the star, and below it is a tragicomedy mask.

The same star as the Hollywood Walk of Fame!

The stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame are to commemorate people who have made outstanding contributions to the entertainment industry, and their names will be forever engraved on that Walk of Fame.

For those involved in the entertainment industry, this is a highly honorable commemoration.

"Thank you!"

Liu Yifei's seemingly calm eyes could not conceal her happiness.

For an actress who takes Hepburn as her role model, this star is a gift to her heart.

Although it's just a keychain now.

After a pause, as if she was afraid of not being able to express her emotions, she added: "I like it very much!"

"nice! You love it."

Seeing her performance, Gu Bei knew that the other party was quite satisfied with the gift he gave her.

In fact, he was also hesitant when choosing the type of star.

There are five types of stars classified according to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The movie cameras of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee are the stars of the film industry.
Trump's small TV is the star of the TV industry.

There are also records and microphones, corresponding to the music and broadcasting industries respectively.

As for this tragicomedy mask, it is a smiling mask with a crying face stacked on top, representing the contribution to the indoor drama industry.

Gu Bei remembered that his classmate who was a big fan of Liu Yifei had never mentioned his cousin Zhou Qixi, which meant that Zhou Qixi had not entered the film or television industry, otherwise it would have been exposed.

Finally, the only industry left was the theater, so this tragicomedy mask style was chosen.

Of course, it is also possible that Zhou Xixi failed the Yale entrance exam and went back to inherit her family's billions of wealth.

Gu Bei patted the backpack behind him and said, "I also brought a Disney doll for photographer Eric's little daughter that can't be bought anywhere else."

As for Antonio's gift, Gu Bei simply didn't bring it.

Boys of this age are not yet able to understand the emotions contained in the souvenirs.

If Gu Bei brought him a souvenir, Antonio would probably doubt that he was going to fencing with him. "It turns out it's not just mine."

Liu Yifei couldn't help but recall Lin Daiyu's classic lines in her mind.

She glanced at Gu Bei with a slightly complicated expression and suddenly asked, "Do you know where I can buy Christmas gifts in New York?"

“Let’s go to the Christmas market in Bryant Park.”

Gu Bei thought for a moment, then hailed a taxi on the side of the road and opened the door. "Are you planning to stay in New York for Christmas?"

Liu Yifei went inside, looking a little excited: "Yes, we're spending Christmas in New York this year."

In recent years, due to her filming schedule, she has rarely been able to enjoy this kind of vacation.

Now it happens that she has free time, and her mother is willing to fly over from China, so naturally she wants to make up for all the missing experiences.

"Then which family are you staying with?"

Gu Bei also got in and told the driver the address.

"I will definitely go back to my own home."

Liu Yifei answered bluntly.

Gu Bei heard it and didn't feel anything unusual.

Buying real estate in New York is a very normal investment behavior, and the growth in the past two years has been quite good.

As a girl who just graduated from college, Zhou Qianqian naturally could not be allowed to live alone.

The public security situation is secondary. The public security situation in good neighborhoods is not bad.

Instead, I am afraid of being instigated by my classmates to have a party, as parties are the places where things are most likely to go wrong.

According to the older generation in China, girls of this age will only feel at ease if someone is looking after them.

"how about you?"

Liu Yifei looked at Gu Bei who was sitting next to her.

"me……"

Gu Bei thought for a moment, "Columbia University has a Christmas performance organized by international students. We'll go to a Chinese restaurant for dinner tonight, and then go back to the apartment to watch TV."

These were the things Gu Bei often did on Christmas in his previous life.

During Christmas, air tickets become more expensive with each flight, and one flight is equivalent to two or three normal flights.

What’s more important is that there is no holiday during the Christmas season in China, my friends are still studying all over the country, and my parents are still working, so it’s better to stay in New York and be comfortable.

This time, photographer Eric invited Gu Bei to spend Christmas at his home, and he was still considering whether to accept.

"Chinese restaurant?"

“On Christmas Eve, only Chinese restaurants and McDonald’s are open!”

The driver in front suddenly spoke up, his tone full of emotion, "Ever since my divorce from my wife, I've been taking my kids to Chinese restaurants for the past few years. It's become a Christmas tradition in our family!"

"Indeed, people who have Christmas Eve dinner at McDonald's look miserable!"

"But...isn't it the same for people in Chinese restaurants?"

Liu Yifei blinked her big eyes, with a hint of doubt and confusion in them.

Gu Bei and the third brother's driver fell silent at the same time.

Forget it, let’s go to Eric’s house this year!
During the rest of the journey, the driver didn't say a word.

He didn't even care about the amount of Gu Bei's tip. The taxi drivers he usually met would care about this.

"It's so lively!"

Liu Yifei looked at the park in front of her. A huge Christmas tree stood at the end, covered with various Christmas decorations. The red and green combination showed the Christmas atmosphere.

There are hundreds of small stalls of all sizes scattered around the park. There are so many people in front of the stalls that they are like dumplings in a pot, shoulder to shoulder.

What attracted her most was the huge ice rink in the center of the park.

"Want to play?"

"In no mood!"
