Chapter 423 Charity Night (Part 1, 4261)
Liu Feifei glanced coldly at Da Mimi, who was looking very cheerful in the room.
Dislike often goes both ways.
Da Mimi is unhappy with her, and she is also unhappy with Da Mimi.
It’s just that this kind of dissatisfaction is not as strong as Da Mimi’s.
After all, Da Mimi's status was far lower than hers before. She had top resources in both the film and television circles, and even Shuanggulong and Lama Li had to play supporting roles to her.
In the entire circle, the only one whose resources can be compared with Liu Feifei is probably Renjian Fuguihua.
International Zhang? After being dumped by Lao Yu, her resources have long been left behind. It will probably be no time soon for her to be involved in variety shows.
And what about Da Mimi and Tiny Times?
That thing is also called a movie?
It's so funny that it makes people laugh to death.
Da Mimi's attitude towards her was like the wild rose at the foot of the mountain, nakedly envious and jealous of the flower on the high mountain. And she treated Da Mimi with a bit of condescending contempt, even when they had a good relationship at the beginning, and never regarded Da Mimi as a competitor.
The relationship between the two has been bad in recent years, and she also thinks it is Da Mimi who is inexplicable. Netizens say that you are a maid, what does it have to do with me, and it’s not me who said that.
Moreover, we are essentially not on the same track. You have tried to pull me down again and again. I should be the one who is angry, okay?
But now, she actually understood a little bit of what Da Mimi had felt over the years.
Although she thinks she has no ambition for resources and status in this circle, and has only come to where she is today under the encouragement of her mother, and she would not be unable to accept it even if she retires one day, but now seeing Da Mi Mi Green Tea succeed, she actually feels a little jealous.
If you can’t sign with CAA, then you can’t sign it. Anyway, I won’t flatter you.
And... with all these big changes recently... can I use this opportunity to get out of this circle?
No, probably not...
Liu Feifei kept smiling and greeted people she knew from time to time.
"Yes, I just joined the crew last week... No, the script is actually pretty good. I've never acted in a comedy before, so it's a good opportunity to try it out. I even made a point of observing the fox's movements... By the way, Mr. Chen, my mom wants to see me. I'll go see what she wants. Sorry, we'll talk later."
Liu Feifei had just chatted with an investor of her new movie when she saw her mother waving at her from a distance.
"Mom! Why don't you ask me about this?!"
Liu Feifei became anxious as soon as her mother finished talking to her about changing tables.
Normally it would be fine if my mother acted on her own, but today I have to go on stage for the opening photo. This party is broadcast live, so I can't not have any shot at all after the group photo, right?
You can imagine what the media will write then.
"Cici, I'm doing this for your own good." Mother Liu hurried to comfort her daughter. In fact, she was also worried about whether this would be any use.
But nowadays, taking a few more photos and grabbing the center position at the Bazaar Charity Night is of little use.
The key is to seize opportunities and grab the most important resources when the world is in chaos.
"Things are different now. The recent upheaval has left so many people's resources hanging in the balance. Look at the people here today. How many aren't forcing smiles and looking uneasy? Liang Wansen, Gao Lin, Li Zhongnan, He Zhou, Xu Kun, Zhang Yucheng... People outside the circle don't know these people, but you must know them, right?"
The people Liu's mother mentioned were actually not from the entertainment industry. They were not in this circle, but everything in this circle was related to them.
Only those who are influential enough in this circle can have any connection with these people, and even many people in the circle have never heard of their names.
But now, these people will most likely become history in this circle.
Some resourceful people who have deep connections with them and were once powerful in the circle, and who were pursued by big directors and big companies regardless of their dignity, will also fall quickly. Those who are lucky may have the opportunity to hold on to some big brothers and make a comeback at some time.
Most of the others will, like these names, suddenly disappear from the circle and be forgotten by everyone within half a year, as if they had never existed.
Many years later, a video clip may appear on some social media or video website, asking if you still remember XXX from XXXXX that amazed an era?
But by this time, everything has changed.
Mother Liu paused for a moment and continued, "Even they've been unable to find anyone lately. You were promoting the movie Three Lives, Three Worlds a while ago, and you had a lot of contact with Yi Hai. Half a month ago, He Zhou even posted a photo of himself having dinner with Yi Hai on his Moments, saying he'd also come to the charity night today to show his support for this little brother Yi Hai. Did he come today? And Yi Hai didn't come either, did he?"
Liu Feifei felt irritated and started scratching her lips unconsciously.
"Cici, this opportunity is rare. Li Manting told me that table 27 is closest to that person. I'm not asking you to do anything right now, but at least we can establish a connection today. We can take it one step at a time later, but we have to take this step today. We've been looking for so many connections and asking for introductions these days, but we haven't found a channel. If we miss today, it will be even harder to find another opportunity."
"Casting for The Ballad of Mulan will begin in October at the latest. This has been my mother's lifelong wish, and it's also your best chance."
Mother Liu's voice was gentle, but her attitude was as unquestionable as ever.
"Mom, the problem is, you know, Da Mimi is Fang..." Liu Feifei pursed her lips, "Even if I listen to you and finally sign a contract with CAA, I still have to depend on Da Mimi's mood..."
"Silly child, if we can really succeed on this path, we won't have to care about Da Mimi's face!" Mother Liu looked disappointed.
Then, realizing he might have been too hasty, he slowed down before continuing, "At that point, at worst, we can ask to sign with CAA headquarters. If the agency contract doesn't go through CAA, we'll be on equal footing with her. Only then can you maintain your status. Do you understand?"
Similar to many unsolved mysteries in this circle that outsiders see, almost no one outside knows that Fang Yu is behind Da Mimi.
And 99.9 percent of people in the circle don’t know about it.
One of the criteria for judging whether a person is a core member of a circle is whether he knows some of the most core secrets of the circle. If he doesn’t know, can he find out?
If he doesn't know and can't find out, it only means that his position does not allow him to know.
The Liu mother and daughter were among those who had the ability and channels to find out.
Liu Feifei didn't say anything and just kept picking her lips.
Seeing this, Mother Liu frowned and became a little alert: "Are you still in contact with that Zeng? Let me tell you..."
Liu Feifei shuddered slightly and quickly denied it: "No, no, Mom, what are you talking about? I haven't been in touch with her for a long time, and we were just ordinary friends before."
Mother Liu looked at Liu Feifei, her eyes softening as she helped her tidy up the loose hair by her ears. "I'm not restricting you. You have to know that beautiful women are the root of trouble. Women like us, if we don't have someone strong enough to protect us or if we ourselves are not strong enough, have never had a good ending. Disgrace is the best outcome, but we might even lose our lives."
"Why does Mom want you to be famous and maintain your status? It's because she wants you to be safe and sound. Do you understand?"
Liu Feifei's nose felt a little sore, her eyes began to turn red, and she said with a nasal tone: "Mom, I understand."
Mother Liu smiled with relief: "That's enough, you're still crying at this age, please don't let your tears flow, you're going on stage soon, it's time to put on some makeup."
Liu Feifei nodded, raised her head, took two breaths, and held back the tears that were about to flow.
"Okay, Xiao Wang has urged us several times over there, let's go backstage quickly. When we take the group photo later, just take whatever you want. Don't worry about big honey and little lion or anything like that. My daughter is the best!"
Mother Liu hugged Liu Feifei's shoulders and hugged her tightly.
"By the way, touch up your lip makeup first. You're picking your lips again. Why can't you break this bad habit?"
——
Repa followed Da Mimi into the venue, and before she even reached the autograph wall, she was dazzled by the flash lights.
This was her first time participating in such a large event.
Da Mimi is very good at socializing. After taking the photos, she started chatting and laughing with people of all kinds. Reba was a little reserved and followed Da Mimi with her hands covering her chest, like a little assistant.
Sister Mi is so amazing, how does she get along with so many people?
Moreover, he seems to like Sister Mi more...
Obviously I knew him first...
Repa bit her lip, feeling a little uncomfortable, and looked around subconsciously.
Didn't he say he would come? Why don't I see him?
"Don't follow me, go talk to those producers yourself." Da Mimi kept smiling and squeezed out a word from between her teeth.
"Okay, okay, Sister Mi." Repa responded a little helplessly. She didn't dare to follow Da Mimi anymore, and went to communicate with the producers and celebrities that Da Mimi mentioned.
She is no longer a newcomer, and her exposure has been very high in the past year, and it is getting higher and higher.
After the role of Gao Wen in Diamond Lover made her famous, she starred in two hit dramas that were broadcasted in the past few months, with very high ratings and online playback.
I had just finished filming Eternal Love last month, and without a single day off, I joined the "Beautiful Li Huizhen" crew to continue filming. If it weren't for the "Refining Essence into Qi" that enhanced my life essence, I might not have been able to hold on.
With so much experience and seeing so much of the world, even those who are not good at socializing have become good at it.
But when Da Mimi is around, she always becomes a little timid and behaves out of place.
The aftermath of workplace bullying.
After chatting awkwardly with a few people, Repa opened his big, ignorant eyes and looked around the room blankly.
Huh? Is that him from behind? Oh, no, he's a little shorter and has a different hairstyle.
Reba was about to look away, feeling a little disappointed, when the tall boy she had just seen, who was wearing a Givenchy suit with a T-shirt underneath, turned around and met her eyes. He couldn't help but show surprise in his eyes and walked towards her.
"Hello, Wang Mingliang."
The tall boy extended his hand, his eyes burning: "I know you, you are even prettier than you look on TV."
"Thank you, thank you." Reba stretched out her fingers a little nervously to shake hands with Wang Mingliang, but she didn't expect that the other party would grab her hand.
"Could you please add my contact information?" Wang Mingliang held Repa's hand with one hand and waved his phone with the other. "We can work together in the future if there's a chance."
Reba wanted to pull her hand back, but she felt the other person holding it tighter.
What should I do about this?
Reba couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
"You're the Xiao Wang that Mr. Liu just brought over, right?"
Just when Repa didn't know how to deal with the situation, a woman's voice sounded beside her. Repa turned around and saw that it was Su Meng, the organizer of this charity night.
Wang Mingliang was a little surprised to see Su Meng. He couldn't help but let go of Reba's hand and bowed respectfully to Su Meng.
"Meng Jie."
Su Meng ignored him and turned to Repa with a smile on her face: "Repa, I've been looking for you for a long time. You look so good today, so beautiful. Wang Yi came to me right away after seeing you, asking if we could change her position when we take pictures later, even to the side. She doesn't want to stand next to you."
"Do you guys at Jiaxing have any secret weapons? I just asked Da Mimi, but she wouldn't tell me. Can you tell me about it?"
Reba laughed dryly, feeling at a loss, and thought to herself, "Sister, you have never spoken to me before."
Wang Mingliang was a little surprised by Su Meng's attitude towards Repa. He was just about to join in the fun when Su Meng turned away and gave him a cold look. "Xiao Wang, this is your first time at Bazaar, right? It's a good thing to have Mr. Liu's support. He's a veteran in the PR world. I think you still need to learn a lot from Mr. Liu."
Wang Mingliang was stunned.
What's the meaning?
Su Meng's words were full of sarcasm, and even though Wang Mingliang was a newcomer, he could tell there was something else behind her words.
He has actually just debuted for less than a year. After being noticed by a PR tycoon in the industry, his fashion resources have been amazing this year. He has met Su Meng several times with the tycoon before, and has also been featured in several pages of Harper's Bazaar. He is currently transforming into an actor with the support of the tycoon.
Last month, when she met Mr. Liu and Su Meng, this elder sister was very affectionate. Why is she so...
Wang Mingliang bowed slightly to Su Meng in embarrassment, and hurried back to the boss, but his eyes still glanced in Reba's direction from time to time.
But after Su Meng and Repa chatted for just a few words, Repa couldn't contain his joy and walked to the back of the venue and started chatting with a boy who looked a few centimeters taller than him.
Anyone who sees it can feel that Repa has a special relationship with this boy.
This guy looks familiar, is he also a newcomer? How come he's so familiar with Repa? Could it be that they knew each other before their debut?
"Brother Liu, what does that boy do?" Wang Mingliang poked the old man next to him.
The gray-haired old man who was chatting with several other stars and laughing excitedly looked in the direction Wang Mingliang pointed, and his eyes narrowed involuntarily.
"I don't know. This half is the VIP mirror-free area." The gray-haired old man replied with a smile, "Anyway, just don't mess with the people over there."
Wang Mingliang couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Just as he was about to ask, the gray-haired old man's cell phone rang. The old man waved to Wang Mingliang and answered the phone: "Hello, sister, I'm here. If you have anything, just come and see me directly."
After just a few words were spoken on the phone, the old man's face became a little stiff.
After hanging up the phone, the old man was in a good mood for a long time before he spoke.
"Liangzi, you go back first. Uh... I forgot my underwear at home, can you go get it for me?"
???
Wang Mingliang's head was full of question marks. Just as he was about to speak, the old man said helplessly, "Oh, forget it, forget it. Let me tell you straight, how did you offend Su Meng? She just called me and told me to leave quickly, otherwise she would kick me out too."
"This crazy woman is crazy."
