Chapter 68: Celebrating Qixi Festival? No, this is Teacher Liu celebrating her seventh day.
The director gave Jiang Nanxi the contact information of the TV series director and said that he had already contacted the other party and she could just audition for the female lead when the time comes.
Jiang Nanxi has always been wary of such things as pie in the sky, so she asked, "If I play the leading female role, will the salary be higher?"
"Of course. The lead actress' salary starts at a million, and she has a lot of scenes. She'll definitely make a small fortune after filming this drama."
"Director, you are so loyal. I will film variety shows with you in the future."
The director smiled awkwardly.
In fact, the main reason he recommended Jiang Nanxi to play the leading female role was because of the movie emperor Liu Qingyan.
After Jiang Nanxi left, the director called Director Zheng of the TV series and said, "Old Zheng, I've told Teacher Liu about your new drama. I'm repaying the favor you did me.
Oh, by the way, I also recommended a newcomer to play the female lead. You must use that newcomer! When you contact Teacher Liu, remember to tell him that the female lead is Jiang Nanxi. He will definitely accept it.
"I see, I see. Thank you very much!"
After Jiang Nanxi returned to her rental house in the capital, she contacted Director Zheng and began preparing for the audition.
Three days later.
When Jiang Nanxi went to the crew for audition, she met Liu Qingyan and acted opposite him in some of the male and female lead roles.
After the audition, Jiang Nanxi looked at him in surprise and said, "This time the script is a wealthy idol drama. Didn't the internet say you wouldn't take on idol dramas with romantic themes?"
Liu Qingyan tilted his head to glance at her and said indifferently, "Is it not okay for me to break through myself?"
"Is acting in an idol drama a breakthrough?"
"yes."
The roles that Liu Qingyan had won awards for in the past were not roles in idol dramas. The dramas he had acted in were all suspense dramas, spy war dramas, etc. He had never acted in an idol drama.
Last time he said that he had played a domineering CEO, and that he played the villain of the Sven drug manufacturing group in a suspense drama.
Jiang Nanxi fell into deep thought.
Seeing her suddenly quiet, Liu Qingyan checked the time and said, "It's time for dinner. Do you want to go eat? I said I'd treat you last time."
Jiang Nanxi chuckled, "You finally remembered. I thought you were going to break me up!"
A few days ago, after the variety show ended, Jiang Nanxi sent messages several times, explicitly hinting that Liu Qingyan should take her out for a big meal, but Liu Qingyan did not reply.
Liu Qingyan chuckled softly and said, "There was an announcement a few days ago, but I was too busy and didn't see the news."
Jiang Nanxi: “…”
Before the audition results came out, Jiang Nanxi went out to eat with Liu Qingyan.
Arrived at the restaurant.
She found that there was no one in the most popular and highest-starred Michelin restaurant in the imperial capital, and the waiters were standing in a row at the door respectfully waiting for them.
Jiang Nanxi was puzzled. "Why are there only two of us customers? Are there so few wealthy people in the capital? Or is this restaurant just famous, but the food isn't good?"
Liu Qingyan sat across from him at the table, flipping through the menu nonchalantly and saying, "It's indeed average, but if you insist on eating here, then have this."
Jiang Nanxi raised his hand in an Ultraman-like manner, "Then I'll apply for a temporary change of venue. I want to eat something delicious."
Liu Qingyan: "Received, but I disagree."
Jiang Nanxi:?
Jiang Nanxi sat in his seat depressed, cursing Liu Qingyan, the dog, a hundred times in his heart.
While Liu Qingyan was ordering food, Jiang Nanxi was playing with his phone with little interest, and then he realized... today was actually Chinese Valentine's Day.
Chen Lan also officially announced it with Song Wanwan today and bought a hot search.
Chen Lan V: [The rest of my life will be with you. As long as you want, I am willing to give you the whole world. @宋晚晚V]
Song Wanwan V: [Thank you, dear. [shy]]
Jiang Nanxi V: [What?! He's going to give you the whole world on Chinese Valentine's Day? What about us ordinary people? Where are we going to live? [crying][crying][crying]]
[Hahaha, Jiang Nanxi is late but still here. This is hilarious! A cheating man and his mistress still need to make it official?]
[Jiang Nanxi's defenses were broken, and so were my defenses. After all, I am also in this world. Does Chen Lan mean for us to leave the world?]
[Damn Qixi Festival! I hate you couples who want to give the whole world away. I got my paycheck today and wanted to go to Michelin for a good meal, but the waiter said someone booked the place for Qixi Festival. They can't even let me eat, right?]
[It’s not us, my girlfriend and I spent Chinese Valentine’s Day at a roadside stall [tears][tears]]
[Not us either, we are in the hotel.]
[It's not me. I'm single and I didn't get to eat it either.]
Jiang Nanxi V: [Haha, I've also eaten at a Michelin restaurant. After eating, I'll get out of Shenlan's world.]
Chen Lan:???
Netizen: ???
In an instant, countless people flocked to Jiang Nanxi's Weibo and saw the photos of Michelin food she posted. She even had a candlelight dinner with candles on the table.
Because of Jiang Nanxi's reply, Shen Lan also noticed Jiang Nanxi's location. He enlarged the picture she sent and looked at it again and again. Finally, he judged from the light and shadow that there was a man sitting opposite Jiang Nanxi!
Chen Lan couldn't help but comment, "Can't you let me go? You spent Chinese Valentine's Day with another man, and you can't help but comment on me?"
Jiang Nanxi didn't reply, so Chen Lan commented again, "Oh, I see. You just found a random man to spend Chinese Valentine's Day with? You want to piss me off? But I'm telling you, we're over."
Jiang Nanxi V: [Who celebrated Qixi Festival? ]
Chen Lan V: [Aren’t you having a candlelight dinner at a Michelin restaurant? Aren’t you also celebrating Chinese Valentine’s Day?]
Jiang Nanxi: ???
What candlelight dinner?
Didn’t Liu Qingyan say that this was the seventh day candle he lit for her because she ate too much and exceeded his budget?
Jiang Nanxi was silent for a moment, and after some inner struggle, she couldn't help but look up at Liu Qingyan, wanting to ask him if he deliberately let her eat on Valentine's Day.
Finally she looked up.
Liu Qingyan stuck three chopsticks into the rice, looked at her with a smile and said, "You've eaten thirty pieces of French foie gras, fifteen slices of cake, twelve French pork pancakes, ten Wellington steaks, eight roast lamb chops, eighteen Australian lobsters, and five king crabs. Are you full? If you are, you can set off now."
Jiang Nanxi burped, "I'm a little full. Didn't you say you'd treat me to a meal? What's wrong with eating a little more? Men, don't be so stingy. If you're so stingy, you won't be able to get married in the future."
Jiang Nanxi wanted to order another portion of everything she had just eaten, but then she was forcibly dragged out of Michelin by Liu Qingyan.
Jiang Nanxi stood at the entrance of Michelin, looking up at the sky sadly at a 45-degree angle. "There's a saying that's true: the richer people are, the more stingy they are. They won't even let people eat enough when they treat them to a meal."
Liu Qingyan: "How can you eat like that? How big is your stomach? You're not afraid of getting sick from eating too much, I'm afraid you'll end up in the hospital and ask me for compensation. Okay, let's go take a walk by the river to exercise and help digest the food."
Jiang Nanxi continued to look up at the sky sadly, "I'm not full."
Liu Qingyan: "Don't always think about eating and forget about exercise. You are a star after all, don't you need to maintain your figure? Don't you enjoy the process of exercising?"
Jiang Nanxi: "It's true that exercise is a kind of enjoyment, but I don't like exercise because I'm not the kind of person who seeks pleasure."
Liu Qingyan:?
Jiang Nanxi turned around and rushed back to the restaurant. Liu Qingyan couldn't stop her, and in the end she insisted on eating up more than 200,000 yuan of Liu Qingyan's money.
The next day, Jiang Nanxi received a notice saying that she had passed the audition and would be able to join the crew to film in a few days.
But after a while, when Jiang Nanxi went to the crew, she was informed that her role had been changed.
The kind that the director decided to change at the last minute.
The female lead was given to another actress, and her role was a servant in the wealthy male protagonist's house. She only had three scenes and her pay was pitifully low.
Jiang Nanxi:?
