"Just like how the fox spirit Su Daji could so easily bewitch King Zhou of Shang and bring about the downfall of his kingdom, your mere presence here can increase the crew's work efficiency by two or three times. It's such a great deal."
Su Daji smiled gracefully: "Then I thank Director Jin for his high regard. By the way, my real name is Su Daji. The 'Su' of Suzhou, and the 'Daji' of the fox spirit Daji who could easily bewitch King Zhou of Shang and bring about the downfall of his kingdom."
Director Jin was immediately stunned when he opened the WeChat page: ...Huh?
Yu Ningning: ...
Knowing Su Daji's mischievous nature, Yu Ningning calmly pushed past her, handed her contact information to Director Jin, and explained, "She's another employee of our company. Su Daji is her stage name. I'm her agent now. If you need anything, Director Jin, just contact me."
After scanning Yu Ningning's WeChat QR code, Director Jin said with some surprise, "You've switched careers to become an agent and even started a talent agency?"
Yu Ningning smiled helplessly and said, "After all, we have to make a living. And I just happened to meet two promising talents, so I thought I'd give it a try and see if I could find another way to survive."
Director Jin's expression immediately showed some regret: "Sigh..."
Yu Ningning immediately comforted him, "Director Jin, you don't need to blame yourself too much. I know you didn't mean to make things difficult for us. A movie is about the hard work of the entire crew, not just one person's personal show. Director Jin, you have a lot to consider too."
"However, I also believe that there is always a way out, and as long as you work hard, you can always survive."
She was not surprised at all by what Director Kim had just said.
She originally brought Qin Shi Huang to the audition today only for the million-dollar fee, and did not expect it to break her predicament.
An Shujia truly hated the original owner so much that she pushed her too far.
It won't be that easy for her to turn things around.
Seeing Yu Ningning's open-mindedness and positivity, Director Jin felt a little relieved and advised, "You are a good prospect with excellent qualities in all aspects. If you persevere, you will definitely leave your mark on film history. Try not to give up."
"Life is long, and no one can predict the future. Let's avoid her for a few years and talk about it later."
"I think you're heading in the right direction right now, and you've really come across two promising talents. Who knows, you might actually pave a path for yourself in the future."
"Child, I have faith in you."
In fact, because of An Shujia's ruthless treatment of Yu Ningning, there were people in the industry who had reservations.
However, due to the power of the An family and An Shujia's erratic behavior, no one dared to say it out loud.
Director Jin only dared to say these words in public because he was quite famous in the industry and had a number of works to his name.
Yu Ningning smiled and said, "Then I'll take Director Jin's good wishes and hope that my path will go smoothly."
Qin Shi Huang is still a patient in a mental hospital, so Yu Ningning certainly can't let him run around outside alone.
So she asked Director Jin if she could stay on set as his agent and assistant to take care of Qin Shi Huang during this time.
Director Kim readily agreed.
So Yu Ningning first took Qin Shihuang and Su Daji to a nearby hotel and booked two rooms to settle them in.
To celebrate Qin Shihuang's successful audition, Yu Ningning specially took Qin Shihuang and Su Daji to the restaurant on the second floor of the hotel and ordered three claypot rice dishes. She then pouted at Su Daji and said, "Here, this is the claypot rice you wanted."
Su Daji looked up and down, left and right, and asked with great curiosity, "Where is the pot?"
Yu Ningning pointed to the earthenware pot containing the food and calmly said in Cantonese, "This is a clay pot."
Su Daji: ...
