Jiang Can co...

Chapter 403 Be a Little More Obsequious to Jiang Can

Just as Jiang Can was about to chase after them, she was stopped by a third person.

Is the meeting room ready?

Jiang Can was taken aback. "What conference room?"

"Here!" The woman tossed her a seating chart. "According to this list, arrange the nameplates on the conference room tables, check if the coffee beans in the coffee machine are full, bring up a bucket of water, and prepare desserts and snacks according to each director's preferences! Go now!"

“You’ve really made a mistake!” Jiang Can looked at the three proud white-collar workers, whose names were engraved on their name tags: Sarah, Jenny, and someone named Fan Lee.

The correct translation should be Li Xiaofan.

The three women seemed to move and express themselves in unison, with their arms crossed over their chests and their eyes looking arrogant, as if they didn't intend to let her go if she didn't do these chores today.

Just then, a voice came from not far away: "Hey, what's wrong with you guys? She looks like an intern?"

Jiang Can turned around and smiled slightly. Tang Yilan casually put one hand on her shoulder, giving her a "I'm here for you" look.

"This is my friend, not an intern at all!" Tang Yilan glared at them irritably. "Get out of my way!"

The three people looked at each other in bewilderment.

They recognized the face of this Chinese female director, and they didn't want to antagonize her.

But... they couldn't just let this heavily pregnant woman go without completing the task they were assigned!

"What's wrong?" Tang Yilan frowned. "Do I have to call your department manager over before you'll let them go?"

"Are you deaf or brainless? My friend has explained so many times that she's not an intern. Can't you understand human language? Besides, even if she were an intern, shouldn't a pregnant woman receive proper care? How can you make her do this kind of running around?"

By this time, passersby had already noticed this area.

Not wanting to escalate the situation, and hearing what Tang Yilan said, the three of them all took a step back.

They also put away the documents and receipts on the table themselves.

"Are you just going to leave like that?" Tang Yilan called out to them. "Even though it was all a misunderstanding, aren't you even going to apologize?"

The three of them curled their lip, rolled their eyes at the two of them with an impatient look, said "Can't understand Chinese", and then ran away as if their feet were greased.

Tang Yilan shouted angrily, but Jiang Can grabbed her back.

"That's enough, stop making a scene here!" Jiang Can whispered to her.

"How can we let this go? Does President Fu know that the Fu family has such an employee? Can Can, you must tell your mother-in-law about this and let her stand up for you!"

Jiang Can chuckled. If even such a small matter had to bother Fu Xiuyu, how could she be a good helper to her mother-in-law?

"Alright, you're even angrier than me!" Jiang Can patted her back. "Anger is bad for your health. I'll buy you coffee to cool you down!"

"No need." Tang Yilan let out a long breath, glanced at her, and chuckled. "My class is over for today, but I need to go upstairs to the studio to edit some footage. You can wait for me at the coffee shop downstairs. I'll be done in an hour at most, and then I'll treat you to a big meal, how about that? Are you willing to wait, willing to wait, or willing to wait?"

Jiang Can rolled her eyes. "Do I have any other choice?"

"No!"

The two burst into laughter.

Tang Yilan first escorted Jiang Can downstairs, then went upstairs herself and headed towards the studio.

Fu Qingyan and Sun Meifen were waiting outside the studio when their assistant brought them coffee and politely asked them to wait patiently.

Sun Meifen's face beamed with joy as she excitedly peered inside.

"Oh, daughter! I heard that the Chinese-language female director is studying here!"

"Mom, you're wrong!" Fu Qingyan corrected. "Director Tang is doing her advanced studies on the 18th floor. This is a studio that the company specifically allocated to her!"

"It's all the same thing anyway!" Sun Meifen patted her hand. "Qingyan, when you go in and see her, don't be nervous. Make the most of the opportunity! With your looks and figure, getting a leading role would be a piece of cake!"

Fu Qingyan straightened up, a smug smile playing on her lips.

She has always wanted to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.

Although she was good-looking and attended a drama school, she auditioned countless times, but was only given minor roles with a few lines.

When asked why, the director's answer was always: her appearance lacks distinctiveness and doesn't fit the image of the female lead.

Some directors, who are even more blunt, said directly: "Ms. Fu, there are tons of people with your face from the plastic surgery assembly line. Without your own unique features, it's impossible for you to become famous."

Fu Qingyan was so angry that she almost got into a fight with the director.

She was unwilling to give up, so she went home and pestered Fu Chengwei to spend money to promote her, while Sun Meifen also kept fanning the flames.

Fu Chengwei then invested money to produce two films, but the box office results were absolutely disastrous, resulting in a huge loss.

When Fu Chengwei was preparing to produce a third installment, Fu Xiuyu strictly forbade him from doing so.

Fu Qingyan and Sun Meifen appeared to have calmed down, but they secretly remembered this debt and were determined to make a name for themselves.

It just so happens that Tang Yilan is here for further studies now, this is a perfect opportunity!

“Qingyan,” Sun Meifen said with a smile, daydreaming, “once you film Tang Yilan’s movie, you’ll be a star in the Chinese film industry! The next Best Actress award will be yours for the taking!”

Fu Qingyan smiled, then frowned slightly, "But... Mom, what if Director Tang doesn't let me act?"

“If you can’t play the lead role, you can play the second lead!” Sun Meifen said in a low voice. “Don’t worry, Tang Yilan is a member of our Fu family. She helped your aunt make a lot of money before. She won’t disrespect Fu Xiuyu!”
