Yu Lin felt as if a cat was scratching his heart, and he felt very uncomfortable.
He actually missed this opportunity!
He hadn't thought of cooperating with Zhao Baizhi earlier!
Ji Shuangcheng's reaction was too quick. Could he have rushed here on a private jet?!
The others couldn't hide their excitement when they saw Ji Shuangcheng. At this moment, when they heard that Ji Shuangcheng wanted to cooperate with Zhao Baizhi, the faces of the other guests changed a little.
Especially Wei An, her hands clenched into fists instantly.
In front of Ji Shuangcheng, they tried their best to please him and didn't even dare to interrupt. Unexpectedly, Ji Shuangcheng actually approached Bai Zhi with a friendly attitude and even used honorifics!
Has Zhao Baizhi reached this level?
Bai Zhi very calmly extended her hand and shook hands with Ji Shuangcheng: "Hello."
The attitude is polite and friendly, but not flattering or humble.
It was as if he was not the top director that everyone in the entertainment industry wanted to please, but just an ordinary person. In her eyes, he was no different from anyone else.
Ji Shuangcheng didn't think her attitude was wrong and was still excited.
"Ms. Zhao Baizhi, you could take a look at my new project. Five years ago, I wanted to make an epic film that would shock both China and the world, but the technology always struggled to produce the best results, so I kept putting it on hold. Now, your glasses-free 3D technology gives me hope. It's the best way to present it. I've already contacted Mr. Feng, but they said the glasses-free 3D technology belongs entirely to you. They only share in the profits, not the decision-making power, so I took the liberty of contacting you again."
Yu Lin was standing next to him, feeling anxious and worried, as if he was being scratched by a cat.
Feng Haoyu was also a little excited. Thinking about his share of the profits, he couldn't help but say, "Baizhi, you can agree. Director Ji's film is absolutely fine. You can invest your technical skills and get a share of the box office profits!"
Director Ji has been thinking about this epic masterpiece for five years, the first naked-eye 3D work. What does it amount to when it is superimposed?
It’s like getting rich overnight!!
The other guests were so jealous that their eyes turned red, especially Wu Mingze and Liu Ruotong.
Liu Ruotong was thinking about how to get close to Bai Zhi. If they could work together, she would have a role...
Wu Mingze wanted to punch himself twice.
Zhao Baizhi obviously liked him before!!
If he had shown his affection to her at that time, and had confirmed their relationship, then he would be her boyfriend now, and he would be so proud. She could cast him as the protagonist in Director Ji's film with Zhao Baizhi!
It's a pity that he looked down on Zhao Baizhi who had no money and no background, and chose to form a CP with Wei An!
Wu Mingze stared at Zhao Baizhi with a pair of eyes, which were shining.
Nowadays, the entertainment industry is a chaotic place for fame and fortune. There are countless people who sleep with others and use unspoken rules just to get a movie. Wu Mingze has also been praised by people before.
Most people who want to be famous will not reject this.
If there was a ladder to heaven in front of us, I wonder how many people would rush over!
Many of them wanted to agree on Bai Zhi's behalf, but Bai Zhi looked at Ji Shuangcheng and said, "Sorry, Director Ji, the naked eye 3D technology is mature, but I already have other plans."
Ji Shuangcheng was stunned and asked hurriedly: "Who approached you to discuss cooperation before me?!"
"No, you are the first one." Bai Zhi shook her head.
"Then why do you..." Ji Shuangcheng opened his mouth, obviously not wanting to give up.
Bai Zhi said the same thing: "Director Ji, I'm sorry, I have my own plans."
Ji Shuangcheng has been in the circle for many years and has met many different kinds of people. Therefore, he can see from Zhao Baizhi's eyes that she is serious.
And the kind that won't waver.
She didn't ask him how much income he could bring her, nor did she negotiate with him and just refused, which showed that it would be useless for him to continue talking.
But how could he let go of such a good opportunity?
So, Ji Shuangcheng asked: "So you mean we can't cooperate for the time being, or..."
"temporary."
Ji Shuangcheng breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to her with a serious expression: "Then I'll wait for your news. I will wait until you are willing to cooperate with others. I hope that at that time, you can give priority to me. This is my private number. Waiting for good news."
"Okay." Bai Zhi smiled.
Reach out and take the business card.
I have to say that Ji Shuangcheng is very sensible and she doesn't hate people like this.
Since there was no way to cooperate, Ji Shuangcheng came in a hurry and had to leave in a hurry.
He didn't ask anyone to see him off, and left disappointedly with his assistant.
Fortunately, I got Baizhi's promise, which is good news.
The others stayed in the villa. Ji Shuangcheng had already left, but they were still not in the mood to record the show. They looked at Bai Zhi with complicated eyes.
Wu Mingze was the first to speak. His voice was hoarse and magnetic, and his eyes stared at Bai Zhi intently, as if filled with infinite affection. "Xiaozhi, you should have promised Director Ji just now. The income he can bring you may be more than what you can make from selling your modified remote control racing car. It can directly allow you to enter a wealthy family..."
"Yes, Baizhi, you are not in the circle, so you may not know Director Ji very well. Let me put it this way, if Director Ji said he wanted to make a movie, I don't know how many A-list celebrities would be willing to shoot it for free, and I don't know how many capitals would be willing to invest money." Liu Ruotong stepped forward and reached out to hold Bai Zhi's hand.
This is a gesture of intimacy between women.
However, Bai Zhi gave way, not hiding her sense of alienation at all.
She said calmly, "So what? Does it have anything to do with me?"
Liu Ruotong: “…”
Bai Zhi looked at Wu Mingze again: "You didn't call her Xiao Zhi."
Her eyes were a little cold, and the way she looked at Wu Mingze made him feel for no reason that he was not worthy.
He couldn't help but take two steps back.
"Why are you so proud? It's just that Director Ji has some skills that he can use. Look how proud you are!" Zhang Yue snorted coldly and turned away.
But Liu Ruotong and Wu Mingze didn't leave, and Vivian didn't say anything, nor did she leave.
She kept looking at Wu Mingze with an obscure look.
Zhao Baizhi has shown her bargaining chips. Is Wu Mingze going to change sides immediately, abandon himself, and try to please Zhao Baizhi?
Her hands clenched into fists.
"All of you go downstairs to record, don't stand here." Yu Lin coughed and made arrangements with a frown.
Wu Mingze and Liu Ruotong wanted to say something, but because the director had spoken, they slowly walked downstairs. However, this time, they said hello to Bai Zhi before leaving.
——Although Baizhi did not respond.
No matter what Baizhi's attitude towards them is, no matter how many grievances and dissatisfactions they have had in the past, now that Baizhi has made them profitable, there is nothing they can't let go of.
In the past, they ridiculed each other, but now, as long as Bai Zhi is willing, she can be a "best friend" with Liu Ruotong and a "lover" with Wu Mingze.
As long as there is benefit, they can immediately lower themselves.
That's the reality.
After they all left, Yu Lin looked at Bai Zhi, coughed, and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Bai Zhi, you didn't work with Director Ji, are you willing to work with me? Don't worry, I can work for you for free! Just follow your plan, I have no objection."
Working for free is nothing, I'm even willing to pay for it.
Whoever can shoot the first naked-eye 3D work will be successful and famous overnight. How much money does he want?
When Yu Lin thought of this, his eyes brightened.
He thought, after all, he and Bai Zhi are now in the relationship of director and guest, and they are collaborating. It would be difficult for her to refuse directly, right?
If there really is a chance, he should be the first one to be considered, right?
Hearing this, Bai Zhi turned her head and looked at him.
Yu Lin's eyes were bright and his face was full of anticipation.
Bai Zhi curled her lips slightly and sneered: "I didn't even agree to Ji Shuangcheng, do you think I would agree to you? Yu Lin, are you so shameless?"
Yu Lin: “…”
He opened his mouth and wanted to say something.
The door was closed with a bang.
The door slammed shut, almost hitting Yu Lin in the face.
He stared at the closed door with wide eyes in disbelief, and then gritted his teeth for a long time.
"Zhao, Bai, Zhi!"
However, the door did not open and she did not go downstairs to record.
The recording for the next few days was like this. Baizhi would participate in the recording of group activities during the day, but she would not be seen during the free recording time.
What's more, one day she simply left the recording base and disappeared for a whole day and night without returning.
"Zhao Baizhi!! This Zhao Baizhi! This is really too much!!" Yu Lin roared.
The assistant clicked his nose and asked, "What should we do? Are we still going to use the contract to threaten her? It says in it that she must cooperate with us according to the script..."
Yu Lin's roar immediately found an outlet, and he yelled at his assistant—
"Contract? Script? Do you dare to ask her about it? Is she short of money right now? Is she afraid of not being able to make it in the entertainment industry? If she throws the contract online, what good will it do us to compensate her?!"
As long as Bai Zhi has the technology for naked-eye 3D, there will be no shortage of directors and investors in the entertainment industry who want to work with her.
Therefore, the program team definitely has no way of making Bai Zhi fail.
The penalty for breach of contract is a small number for her, and she is not afraid of anything.
But instead…
Their production team is scared!!
As for Zhao Baizhi's current situation, she is extremely popular and the whole Internet is talking about her. That few minutes of naked-eye 3D video is still watched by countless people every day.
With her around, the show will definitely have high ratings and become a hot topic.
If they forced her away, the loss would outweigh the gain. They couldn't let her fail, but she might make Yu Lin fail!
"Director, Zhao Baizhi is back!" The staff member's words interrupted Yu Lin's roar.
"She finally decided to come back!" Yu Lin sneered, "Do you think this is a hotel? I can come and go as I please?"
Assistant: "But Director, you just said we can't do anything about her..."
Yu Lin's face instantly darkened when he heard this.
As he walked out, he snorted coldly, "I can't do anything to her, but can I still say something to her? Since she agreed to the show, how can she be so lawless?! If her fans knew about her behavior, I wonder if any of them would still like her!"
If she still wants to stay in this circle, she probably won't want to fall out with him, right?
Then he can say a few words to her, right?
Thinking this, he walked out angrily.
However, when he saw the car parked at the door and the person standing next to the car, he froze and stood there, motionless.
A military vehicle, and next to it, Zhao Baizhi and a soldier wearing a military uniform with two bars and four stars on his shoulders.
The man said something to Zhao Baizhi, Baizhi nodded, then the man smiled and saluted before getting into the car and leaving.
The car disappeared and Bai Zhi came up to it.
"Is there anything wrong?" Bai Zhi asked calmly.
Yu Lin shrank his neck, pulled the corners of his mouth, and forced the anger on his face into a smile, which was very stiff.
"No, it's okay... It's already so late, you should go to bed early..."
"Oh." Bai Zhi nodded and left.
Next to him, the assistant said: "Director... aren't we talking about her?"
Yu Lin slapped him: "Bullshit!"
Who dares?!
Zhao Baizhi is finally back!
Wu Mingze bribed the staff to keep an eye on him at all times. After receiving the text message, he immediately straightened his clothes in front of the mirror and sprayed some perfume.
Then he walked out quickly and stood waiting at Zhao Baizhi's door.
After Bai Zhi came up, he leaned against the door, raised his eyebrows, and smiled a smile that made his fans scream: "Hi, Bai Zhi, you're finally back."
Bai Zhi looked at him, and her brows instantly furrowed.
But soon, she heard another rapid breathing sound, and her brows relaxed again.
Wu Mingze stood up straight and walked towards Bai Zhi. His voice was gentle: "Where have you been? I haven't seen you last night or all day today. Have you eaten? I'll make you something. I'm a pretty good cook."
He was a smart man and knew that directly confessing his feelings might not be effective, so he changed his strategy and started to express himself.
——He is confident in his charm.
However, it is destined that the eyes and eyebrows will be seen by the blind.
In the previous world, countless tycoons were dedicated to selecting all kinds of handsome men and sending them to Baizhi. Her property was the entire world. Any man who could gain a foothold by her side would own the entire world.
Especially after Bai Zhi got older, countless people were sent to her in various ways. If she hadn't been in the laboratory so often, she would probably have been annoyed to death.
All those carefully selected and even deliberately trained for twenty or thirty years are useless, just a Wu Mingze?
Sorry, except for science, everyone is the same in Baizhi's eyes.
Bai Zhi took a step back and raised an eyebrow: "Aren't you and Wei An a couple?"
Wu Mingze raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with laughter. "Are you jealous? Actually, I have nothing to do with her. I don't like her type. She's not as good as you in any way. How could I like her? It's the investors who asked me to do this. You know, it hasn't been easy for me in the entertainment industry these years. We are all floating around here, and we have no choice but to do whatever the investors tell us to do."
His smile turned into a wry smile.
He praised Bai Zhi, stepped on Wei An, and made himself feel miserable.
The method is very good.
"Really?" Bai Zhi said lightly.
"It's true." Wu Mingze's smile grew even more bitter. "Actually, I've liked you from the beginning, but I couldn't protect you. It would be too easy for them to hurt you. I could only avoid you to avoid causing you any trouble."
After a pause, he continued, "Now that you've become powerful, you have naked eye 3D technology, and you have the military to protect you, no one can hurt you, and I don't need to hide my feelings, Zhao Baizhi, I like you."
He stared at her closely, his eyes full of affection, as if he could make people sick of him.
He once used this look in an idol drama to make himself a second-tier star.
Because of his height, he was taller than Baizhi, so Baizhi could only slightly raise her head to meet his eyes.
She just looked at him, letting him approach her in an ambiguous way.
Just as she was about to get closer, she pushed her glasses and suddenly said, "You're right. Now that I'm powerful, I also have certain abilities, such as banning a less important star."
Wu Mingze froze and his pupils shrank.
Bai Zhi was obviously shorter than him, but at this moment, he felt as if she was looking down at him. He heard her slowly speak—
"If you come near me again, I'll block you. You know I can do it."
Her voice was calm and composed, as if she was talking about the weather, but Wu Mingze couldn't help but take a few steps back and look at her in disbelief.
After a while, he opened his mouth: "Bai Zhi..."
Bai Zhi looked at him, and her cold eyes made him understand - she was serious.
And she obviously didn't like him at all, and had no feelings for him at all.
Wu Mingze shook his body and wanted to say something, but when he thought of Bai Zhi's words just now, he left with a complicated look.
He was unwilling and couldn't believe it.
But he didn't dare to gamble with his future...
A person who is used to wearing big brands and living a luxurious life cannot accept losing all of this.
Wu Mingze left, but Bai Zhi still stood there.
She said lightly: "Come out."
