Chapter 171 What a trick of playing hard to get!
Chen Yuyan spoke with confidence.
She thought that after she had analyzed all of this clearly, Zhou Suihuai would definitely be moved.
But she never expected that he would turn his head coldly, stare at her and sneer, as if he had just heard a huge joke.
Chen Yuyan frowned, "What are you laughing at?"
Zhou Suihuai's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he said nonchalantly, "If Miss Chen is so capable, do you still need to seek cooperation with me? Wouldn't it be more straightforward to let Ou Moyuan help you get promoted? Miss Chen, with your IQ, you are not qualified to give me advice. Isn't it funny?"
Chen Yuyan choked.
Zhou Suihuai was too lazy to pay attention and turned away.
After taking a few steps, Chen Yuyan shouted angrily from behind, "Alright, then you'll just sit there like a lapdog for the rest of your life, watching Bian Zhi marry someone else. You'll regret it then!"
Li Kun stood two steps away from Zhou Suihuai and saw that Zhou Suihuai's hand holding the script suddenly tightened.
The opening ceremony of the new drama was very grand, with the director, producer, and investors all attending.
Except for Gardenia truncatum.
Investor A: "Hey—isn't Dean Bian here? She's the biggest investor in this show. Why isn't she showing up for the opening ceremony today?"
Investor B: "I didn't see him, but I heard that at the beginning, after writing a check that made Director Zhou drool, Bian Zhi never took care of things here again."
Investor C gave a thumbs-up: "She is indeed the daughter of the Lin family. How could she invest hundreds of millions so easily?"
Zhou Suihuai stood aside, looking at the empty doorway of the crew, his eyes gradually darkening like dusk.
Li Kun could see that Zhou Suihuai was being perfunctory when socializing with the heroine and the producer.
When Zhou Suihuai felt tired and walked to the side, Li Kun walked to Zhou Suihuai with reluctance.
After hesitating for a long time, he opened his mouth cautiously, "Master..."
He hesitated for a long time, looking in the direction of the crew door with a calm expression, and did not urge him.
In other words, he has been indifferent to everything for the past month.
"Master... Chen Yuyan looks quite annoying."
After Li Kun said this, he looked at Zhou Suihuai again. He seemed to no longer expect a miracle to happen. He sat on a high stool, stretched his long legs, lowered his head, and picked at the calluses on his knuckles left by shooting practice in the past few days.
"But," Li Kun felt that if he didn't say something today, he would definitely be suffocated to death, "what she just said is not completely unreasonable."
Since you have the courage to say something, you might as well say it all in one go.
"I've told you before that you can't always give in to Miss Bian Zhi. You should occasionally keep a distance from her to let her know that she can't always control you. Also, let her know that you, the young master, are very popular.
You are always like a kite with the string handed to her. She doesn't even have to move, you just fly around her. How can she think you are precious?"
"Master, when men and women are together, there are some little tricks to it."
As the sun set, Zhou Suihuai's head hung low and he never raised it again. The thin calluses on his knuckles were scratched with bright red blood.
Li Kun frowned and turned around to find a band-aid for him while complaining, "Master, you are good in everything except emotional intelligence. You are too nice to people and too direct. You give everything directly. There is a lack of surprise and excitement, so it seems bland."
"Next time you see Miss Bian Zhi, you should also show Ou Moyuan's superiority, you--"
Li Kun was holding the band-aid, and the person next to him raised his head and looked towards the door as if he had sensed something.
Then, when the extinguished light in his eyes saw the person appearing at the door, it rekindled little by little, and then flashed with dazzling brilliance.
Li Kun stared blankly at Zhou Suihuai, while Zhou Suihuai stared blankly at Bian Zhi at the door.
Before Li Kun could stop him, Zhou Suihuai put down the script in his hand, pursed his lips, and stood up slowly and carefully.
At that moment, Li Kun understood.
Even though the fire in Zhou Suihuai's eyes has been extinguished, as long as he meets Bian Zhi, no matter how heartbroken he is, he can still ignite a prairie fire.
Li Kun sighed. Seeing that his young master was aggrieved, he did not dare to step forward.
As if afraid of disturbing Bian Zhi, he could only watch her quietly from a distance.
Li Kun's eyes welled up with tears almost instantly.
Too damn humble!
"Master," Li Kun insisted even though he knew it was useless. "Did you hear what I just said to you? Don't take the initiative, don't go over. Even if she calls you later, ignore her. Playing hard to get is the best strategy to win over people. Do you understand?"
Seeing that Zhou Suihuai didn't respond, Li Kun anxiously tugged at the hem of Zhou Suihuai's clothes.
Zhou Suihuai turned around and heard Li Kun repeat, "Got it?"
Zhou Suihuai blinked his charming peach blossom eyes unconsciously, "I know."
When Bian Zhi arrived, the opening ceremony had already ended and everyone was taking pictures.
As soon as she entered the door, Director Zhou greeted her warmly, "Girl, I thought you weren't coming."
Bian Zhi smiled helplessly.
"There are too many patients in the hospital today, so I can't get away."
Director Zhou nodded and called everyone over to take pictures. After all, Bian Zhi was the largest investor, and with Lin Jue, Lin Ye, and Chen Tingsi standing behind him, any one of them would be a big shot who could become rich overnight if they knew him.
Everyone wanted to get close to Bian Zhi and make friends with him. Everyone was enthusiastic and rushed to stand next to Bian Zhi.
As the cameraman half-crouched and prepared to start filming, Bian Zhi whispered, "Wait."
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
Bian Zhi smiled slightly at Zhou Suihuai, who was standing stupidly in the corner. "How can we take a group photo without the male lead?"
Zhou Suihuai froze when he was called.
Li Kun turned his back and grabbed the hem of Zhou Suihuai's clothes, "Master, find a reason not to go over there, you--"
Before he could finish his words, the hand holding the hem of his clothes was empty.
Li Kun: "..."
What kind of understanding is this?!
Just shouting at someone with just a random word is not playing hard to get!
A circle of people gathered around Bian Zhi. Zhou Suihuai came over, and the people around him showed no intention of giving up the center position to the male protagonist.
Zhou Suihuai consciously stood at the very side.
The cameraman raised his hand to take a picture.
Bian Zhi's face turned cold in vain. She didn't look at the camera, but looked directly at Director Zhou beside her.
He said with a cool, indifferent smile, "Director Zhou, isn't your crew always the most disciplined? Why? You're not going to follow the rules today?"
Director Zhou glanced at Zhou Suihuai at the edge, hissed, and whispered in Bian Zhi's ear, "The people around you were all recommended by investors of all sizes. Will you just make do with them? It's just one photo, no matter how big or small. It won't be a problem."
Zhou Suihuai's family is wealthy and powerful, but he has to rely on himself, so he has to be stepped on by those who envy him.
There are so many things like this that it is difficult for Director Zhou to be partial.
But Zhou Suihuai was only focused on his role and didn't care too much, so it was even harder for Director Zhou to say anything. Over time, he got used to it.
Bian Zhi sneered when he heard this.
"No problem?"
Bian Zhi had no intention of letting things go. "My hero and heroine have been pushed to the edge. Tell me, is it okay?"
Director Zhou choked.
The heroine was originally chosen by Bian Zhi. She also has no background, so naturally... she has to endure some humiliation.
This is how all the newcomers go through, and he never cared about it before.
After Bian Zhimeng brought this up, he himself felt that the matter was indeed not handled properly.
Just as he was about to call the two of them to the middle to settle the matter, he heard Bian Zhi say in a neither loud nor soft voice:
"Director Zhou, you know exactly who I invested in this drama for, right?"
Director Zhou: “???”
"If my people are bullied by you, you tell me," Bian Zhi lowered his eyes and smiled lazily. His aura gradually grew stronger, and his protective look was very compelling. "My account -"
Bianzhi is slow and leisurely.
"Who do you want to settle with?"
