"Ah, hello, Director Du, hello, yes, yes, I'm Jiang Wenrou."
"What? I was rejected. Was there something I didn't do well enough?"
"Hello, hello?"
Jiang Wenrou was answering the phone, but something seemed to be wrong. After the call, she looked like a wilted eggplant, listless.
"What's wrong? Are you having problems at work?"
Jiang Wenrou pouted, looking unhappy.
"I've finally secured the role of a maid these past few months, and I was supposed to start filming soon, but now the assistant director tells me I've been cut. How can I be so unlucky!"
"That's their loss." Chen Chuan smiled and sat down. "It seems your career isn't going well right now. But come to think of it, although your figure isn't great, your looks are fine. If you play a maid and overshadow the heroine in the film, wouldn't the investors be at a huge loss?"
"Chen Chuan, do you know how to comfort people?" Jiang Wenrou said angrily, "I just can't understand why the role of the maid was taken away. Is it because I didn't go to dinner with them last time they asked me to?"
"But I really had something to do at that time."
"What the hell? Eating together?" Chen Chuan said with amusement, "That's not surprising. Maybe you didn't go, but your competitors did."
"Are you saying that my competitor slept with the director?"
Shen Chuan looked at her in surprise.
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm not an idiot. How could I not know the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry?" Jiang Wenrou said angrily. "But she's just a maid. Why is she so important? If she wants to sleep with someone, she should at least be the second female lead, right?"
Chen Chuan was shocked: "Jiang Wenrou, you are not prepared to sacrifice yourself for art."
"You are the one who should dedicate yourself to art!"
Jiang Wenrou glared at him. "Am I such a shallow person? At worst, I can just not get involved in the entertainment industry. With my conditions, even if I become an internet celebrity, I can still live a carefree life for half my life, okay?"
"Then I'm relieved." Chen Chuan sneered and said, "I didn't realize you were so insightful. Then why don't you start becoming an internet celebrity now?"
Jiang Wenrou shook her head like a rattle.
"That won't work. If I become an internet celebrity now, it won't be good for my career development. It will easily be used as negative material in the future."
"I see. No wonder many celebrities, who could generate staggering profits from a livestream, are unwilling to lower their standards."
Jiang Wenrou sighed, "I don't know how long it will take to get the next role. I really don't want to go to Hengdian to play a supporting role. It's too hard."
Chen Chuan comforted him, "It takes ten years to sharpen a sword, so be patient."
"That's for men. We women don't have the luxury of sharpening a sword for ten years."
"The golden age for us women is from fifteen to thirty. After that, we become old ladies with faded looks."
Jiang Wenrou was a little pessimistic, but it was undeniable that what she said was right.
"There's a saying in the entertainment industry that there are always benefactors, but I don't know where my benefactor is now."
Chen Chuan coughed lightly and sat up straight, "Do you think it's possible that something is far away and yet right before your eyes?"
Phew!
Jiang Wenrou was amused by his serious look.
"You?"
"You might as well say you are Qin Shi Huang."
"It seems you don't believe in fate," Chen Chuan smiled meaningfully, but didn't say much. "By the way, what's the door lock code? Also, give me a set of access cards and spare keys."
Jiang Wenrou slapped her head and said, "Look at my memory. I'll send the password to you on WeChat, and I'll get the access card and spare key for you."
"Also, let's save each other's phone numbers so we can contact each other in case of any emergency."
After saying that, she ran into the master bedroom and handed the access card and key to Chen Chuan.
"Okay, I've saved your phone number. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Bye, my big star."
"You annoying thing, I'm not a big star now."
Jiang Wenrou muttered to herself as she watched Chen Chuan leave.
"Oh, I really hope you are my benefactor."
As soon as Chen Chuan left, she seemed to return to her true nature, lying on the ground with a sad face, wriggling on the ground like a worm.
While squirming, she whispered: "Bad woman, bad woman, you stole my role. Ah, I'm so angry."
drop!
Suddenly, the door opened and Chen Chuan appeared at the door. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Jiang Wenrou crawling on the ground like a worm.
He was stunned.
"ah!!!"
Jiang Wenrou screamed and got up from the ground.
Chen Chuan suppressed his laughter, pretended to be nonchalant and walked to the sofa, saying with a wry smile: "Sorry to bother you, I forgot to take the contract."
Jiang Wenrou sat on the sofa with her face covered.
Chen Chuan picked up the contract, walked quickly to the door, and said, "Well, go on, I didn't see anything."
"Ah! I hate you so much!!"
Jiang Wenrou picked up a pillow and threw it at Chen Chuan.
