After returning home, Shen Chuan had a good sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already late at night.
He came out of the bedroom and found that the light in the living room was on. He looked carefully and found that Jiang Wenrou had returned without him noticing.
She was sitting there alone, with a few cans of beer on the table, and she reeked of alcohol.
Chen Chuan looked puzzled and coughed lightly to indicate his presence.
Jiang Wenrou was startled and turned her head to see him.
"Are you at home?"
"Well, I had a social event this morning and drank some wine, so I came back and took a nap."
Shen Chuan said as he walked to the edge of the sofa and pointed at the table full of beer.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you drinking so much alone?"
Jiang Wenrou frowned and handed a can to Chen Chuan: "Drink with me, I'm in a terrible mood now."
Shen Chuan took the beer, opened it and took a sip.
"What's the situation? Tell me about it."
Jiang Wenrou sighed, "It's all because of the crew's troubles. I've been running around the crew all this time, thinking that even a small role wouldn't matter. You don't know, I worked so hard for several days, but in the end I couldn't even get a small role."
Chen Chuan frowned and said, "Is it really that bad? Those directors are so blind. Anyone with eyesight can see that you have the potential to become a star."
"Haha!" Jiang Wenrou took a big sip of wine and said with a sad smile, "I can't see the director at all. I see a lot of the assistant directors in charge of casting, but they all hinted that they want me to sleep with the producer. What bastards!"
Chen Chuan raised his eyebrows, feeling both surprised and not surprised. After all, this was not the first or second time that unspoken rules happened in the entertainment industry.
"The path of an actor is too difficult. I don't think I'm destined to be a star."
Jiang Wenrou looked melancholy and pitiful, which made Chen Chuan feel pity for her. He couldn't help but comfort her: "You are so young, don't be too depressed. Every popular star will experience setbacks before becoming famous."
“When luck strikes, that’s when you’ll soar to the sky. Before that, all you have to do is hone your acting skills and seize the opportunity when it comes.”
Jiang Wenrou said softly: "I have lost confidence."
"What the hell!?" Chen Chuan put down his drink and scolded, "How many setbacks have you experienced and already lost confidence? With this mentality, even if an opportunity comes, you won't be able to seize it."
"Have you never seen anyone become a late bloomer? There are so many actors who became famous in their 30s or even 40s."
Jiang Wenrou's eyes were dim and she took a big sip of wine.
"But how many female celebrities have you seen?"
"Only men can embrace opportunities as time goes by, but women don't. As they age, they inevitably become less attractive. With the new generation replacing the old, how many opportunities are left for women?"
"I have no connections, and no unique talents. Why would I be the one to get this opportunity when I'm old and ugly?"
She smiled distraught and whispered, "Perhaps my only chance is to sleep with him in exchange for an opportunity."
“This is a point of no return.”
Shen Chuan looked at her with a slightly serious tone.
"Once someone leaves evidence, your life will be over."
Jiang Wenrou gave him a charming look and smiled helplessly.
"I don't want to be a plaything of the rich, so I have no choice but to quit. This may be the best option for me."
She raised her glass, her eyes blurry with drunkenness.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and drink with me! I won't stop drinking until I'm drunk today."
Chen Chuan silently raised his glass and decided to act as an NPC and drink with her.
While drinking, he was thinking about whether to recruit Jiang Wenrou to his company. With him around, she would naturally not be affected by the unspoken rules in the future. However, his company is still in its infancy, and he is afraid that she will not trust him.
He has only registered a name at the moment. Later he will need to hire a professional to write a business plan, rent an office space, and handle corporate accounts, tax registration, and most importantly, relevant licenses.
"It would be great if there was someone with expertise in this area. I wonder if the system will reward them later. I see a column under the personal template that says 'talent', but I'm not sure if the system will reward similar talent, or if I need to recruit them myself."
After a while, he secretly shook his head. The system level was still too low, and he didn't have enough money to do many things. He could only take it step by step.
"Hey, drink less!"
When he came to his senses, Jiang Wenrou's front was already filled with empty bottles, and her whole body was as red as a cooked lobster, even her ears were red.
"Hehe, have fun today... Come drink with me..."
Jiang Wenrou was already drunk and her speech was incoherent. Chen Chuan couldn't help but frown and snatched the bottle of wine from her hand.
"Let's stop here for today. You're already drunk."
"No~ I want to drink more~"
Jiang Wenrou said this in a coquettish voice, which made Chen Chuan shudder and think that if he drank any more, something bad would happen.
Thinking of this, he couldn't let her continue drinking, so he took the remaining bottles of wine away.
"You go to bed and sleep. I'll clean up here."
Seeing the mess around, Chen Chuan decided to clean it up.
But there was no response. When he turned around, Jiang Wenrou had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
"If you can't drink, don't drink it, little Pa Cai!"
Shen Chuan complained and went back to his room to get a quilt.
"I hate people like you who are blacking out from drinking the most!"
