Yao Fanghua was quiet and reserved since childhood, but she possessed a pair of clever hands. Her fingers were flexible and slender, and she loved to tinker. After dismantling her grandfather's...
Chapter 131 Curiosity
Wu Peng asked the driver to go to a nearby coffee shop.
In the coffee shop, Wu Peng stirred his coffee. "If you want to talk about shooting an advertisement, I really can't help you. You should just talk to Hua Hua directly."
"Would Sister Huahua agree?" Her own mother and Sister Huahua's mother had never gotten along. When she was little, her mother told her and her brother not to play with Sister Huahua and her friends. What's more, there was the matter between her brother and Sister Huahua later on. Sister Huahua must hate her brother to death and definitely wouldn't like her either.
"Whether you agree or not, just call and ask. If it doesn't work out, then you don't have to worry about it anymore, and you can focus your attention on other resources."
Wu Peng had a wad of cash in his pocket, which Yao Weimin had asked him to give to Yu Qingqing. Yao Weimin had said that he just wanted to know how Yu Qingqing was doing after going to Gangcheng, whether she was having a hard time, and asked him to bring some money to Yu Qingqing.
Wu Peng sighed and took out the money anyway, saying, "This is what Weimin asked me to give you."
Yu Qingqing pushed the money back, saying, "Tell him to forget about me. I'm not good enough for him."
Yu Qingqing wiped away her tears, "I will never get married in this life. I just want to sing and act well from now on." To be a star, make money, become famous, and stand out from the crowd.
After this miscarriage, the doctor told her that she would have difficulty conceiving again. Her first miscarriage had damaged her body, and it was a miracle that she was able to get pregnant this time. However, she did not heed the doctor's advice and still had an abortion without hesitation.
Men are just adept at manipulating women because they know women are soft-hearted; that's why they can control women so ruthlessly, even knowingly committing wrongdoings. Hou Jingkun thought she wouldn't abort the child, and Chen Cheng thought she wouldn't abort the child either. Ha!
If a woman makes an unforgivable mistake, a man will leave her and abandon the children without hesitation. Why do they assume that a woman wouldn't or couldn't do the same?
Wu Peng left Yao Fanghua's office phone number with Yu Qingqing and then left. The stack of money was also left on the coffee table.
Yu Qingqing downed her coffee in one gulp. She wiped away her tears.
A cup of bitter coffee, without sugar, just like her life now.
There's nothing to regret. It was all her choice. Even if she had another chance, she still wouldn't choose Yao Weimin. She would still climb the social ladder.
After leaving the coffee shop, Yu Qingqing found a public phone booth and called Yao Fanghua.
The moment the call connected, Yu Qingqing suddenly didn't know what to say. Just as Yao Fanghua was about to hang up, the other end finally spoke.
"Sister Huahua, I am Yu Qingqing."
Yao Fanghua paused for a moment, then said, "Yes, what is it?"
"President Yao, President Jiang wants you to go to the R&D lab for a meeting." The assistant knocked and entered.
Yu Qingqing immediately said, "Sister Huahua, I want to shoot that advertisement."
I can sing and dance. I'm currently participating in a singing competition and a variety show. Sister Hua, believe me, I will definitely become famous. Right now, using me is the most cost-effective option.
Lily and the others look down on mainlanders and mainland products. They only care about money and don't respect Huazhong Technology at all. Even if you use them, they'll just be perfunctory, and there might be problems later. Sister Huahua, why don't you use me? I can film for free, as long as you give me this opportunity," Yu Qingqing said in one breath, afraid that Yao Fanghua would suddenly hang up the phone.
"Sister Huahua, please, give me this chance," Yu Qingqing said, her voice trembling with tears.
The singing competition was completely unfair; the guests on variety shows, including the hosts, were all hostile towards her, constantly making fun of her and relentlessly mocking her accent. They all looked down on her, a girl from mainland China. She desperately needed a gig to prove herself, and this Huazhong Technology advertisement was the best one she had come across, offering the opportunity to work with a currently popular male star.
Yu Qingqing is right about one thing: she really doesn't need people who take her money and look down on her products to shoot advertisements.
Yao Fanghua tapped the table lightly with her finger. "Does your company know that you're divorced?"
"No, I don't know," Yu Qingqing said timidly.
"If it gets exposed in the future, have you thought about how to deal with it?" For ordinary people, being divorced is nothing, but for celebrities, especially idols, this kind of thing obviously has an impact.
Yu Qingqing bit her lip hard to calm herself down, and then said firmly, "I will take the path of strength. I will work hard, I will rely on my strength, I will sing and dance, I will learn to act. When I go back to the company, I will tell President Xu that I will no longer take the pure and innocent persona."
Yao Fanghua nodded, "It doesn't have to be free. If you've thought it through, whatever your fee is, that'll be written in the contract. However, if your divorce causes any negative impact on our company in the future, you'll be held responsible. All of this will be written in the contract. You'll need to discuss this thoroughly with Xu Zong, and make sure you're among the people he recommends."
"I understand, thank you, Sister Huahua, thank you, Sister Huahua!" Yu Qingqing hung up the phone and rushed to the company.
Since the divorce is to be written into the contract, then we must be honest with Mr. Xu about the divorce, the reason for the divorce, the reason for the divorce, domestic violence, and the domestic violence.
Xu Zongwei hadn't expected Yu Qingqing to have such a hidden agenda. He circled around Yu Qingqing and asked, "Why did you suddenly confess this? I heard you got into President Wu's car today? Did you know President Wu and the others before?"
Yu Qingqing felt uneasy under Xu Zongwei's gaze. "I'm from Beijing. Hua Hua and I used to be neighbors."
Xu Zongwei pointed at Yu Qingqing and said angrily, "Why didn't you mention this relationship before!"
"I, I," could she say she was afraid Yao Fanghua would do something bad to her? Could she say her mother didn't get along with the Yao family? They all knew about her dark past.
"I want to rely on myself," Yu Qingqing said finally.
Xu Zongwei scoffed and asked who would believe that.
"Anything else? Tell me all at once."
"No. I started dancing in elementary school, then went to work in a factory, got married, got divorced, and then came to Shenzhen. You know what Shenzhen is like. That's all. Otherwise, you can ask General Manager Yao."
"Okay, I'll trust you for now. Keep your divorce a secret for now. If anyone asks about it later, just stay silent. If you really can't hide it anymore, it's okay. It's just a divorce. In our line of work, there are plenty of divorces and breakups. Don't mention domestic violence. It's just that we didn't get along. Understand?"
Yu Qingqing nodded obediently.
Xu Zongwei poured Yu Qingqing a cup of tea. "You're neighbors with President Yao and the others? What were President Yao and President Wu like before? Tell me about them." Wasn't it said that the wealthy people in mainland China had been plundered? The rich had all run away, and those who didn't were all poor. He was particularly curious about how this couple became so rich. Where did their initial capital come from?
