The photo is a candid shot with somewhat blurry quality.
I could vaguely make out that there was a table of people eating, and there were several kinds of white wine, red wine and champagne on the table.
The woman's back looked familiar, but I couldn't remember who she was.
But Ye Wan could see the silhouette in the photo clearly.
Chen Baiyu.
Ye Wan made a phone call.
"Sister Wan, that woman is Wei Zhiqiu from our studio."
Ai Xiaomi got straight to the point. "It seems that the dinner was arranged by her agent. The other party was a representative of the investor. I don't know what the specific play was. But Chen Baiyu's reputation in the industry is not very good. He is said to be..."
As if she didn't know what to say, Ai Xiaomi made up her mind and said, "To put it nicely, it's helping people to get resources. To put it bluntly, it's just pulling P strips."
Ye Wan understood immediately.
"Okay, I got it. Send me the location."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Wan called Qiu Yuze.
…
In the private room on the third floor of Mingyue Hotel, Wei Zhiqiu felt like sitting on pins and needles.
She read the script her agent handed her, which was a 30-episode red TV series, and the director wanted her to play the leading female role.
It is a very positive TV series. Wei Zhiqiu watched it very seriously and has already thought about how to interpret the character.
Unexpectedly, I heard a rumor recently that Xu Xinqiao is also vying for this role.
After terminating his contract with Jianfan, Xu Xinqiao signed with Huayu Media through some unknown connection.
The two of them used to compete for resources when they worked together. Now that they are no longer artists of the same company, they will be even less restrained when competing.
Wei Zhiqiu's agent used a lot of connections to arrange this dinner, but Wei Zhiqiu didn't expect to meet Chen Baiyu here.
What is even more unexpected is that Chen Baiyu is the male lead in this red TV series.
Chen Baiyu is a movie emperor, but his reputation in the circle is very bad.
But unexpectedly, the meaning between the lines of the other party's words actually contained a hint of threat.
The implication is that she can take on this drama if she wants, but she has to show some appreciation.
But if I refuse, it will probably be even more difficult to play the same type of role in the future.
After all, the directors who shoot this kind of subject matter are all from the same circle, and it’s just a matter of a word to decide who to use or not.
With a smile on his face, he toasted this and that, as if everything could be easily settled.
But only Wei Zhiqiu herself knew that she was regretting it so much that her intestines turned green!
"Zhi Qiu..."
Chen Baiyu refilled Wei Zhiqiu's glass. "Boss Wang really likes you. He knows all the roles you've played. How can one glass be enough? "
"Mr. Wang, let me toast you again..."
“Don’t!”
Seeing Wei Zhiqiu holding up his glass, Chen Baiyu said with a smile: "Since we are all sitting at the same table, and we will be filming a TV series invested by Mr. Wang in the future. It's boring for you to toast like this, don't you think?"
Wei Zhiqiu was stunned.
Chen Baiyu smiled and said, "Let's drink a toast with Mr. Wang..."
When he raised his eyes, he was met with that ugly face with a fat belly. Maybe it was because of the lustful light in his eyes that made him feel sick, but Wei Zhiqiu had an urge to vomit.
But reason told her that she should not vomit, nor should she act impulsively.
"Mr. Wang..."
Just as he opened his mouth, the cell phone on the desk rang.
I glanced down and saw the word "Boss" on the screen.
Wei Zhiqiu breathed a sigh of relief. "Sorry, my boss called. I'll take the call."
