Chapter 166 Charity Gala
I have to say that Qiao Yan, who looked ordinary and honest before, now has some ability to seduce people. Although her appearance is not outstanding in the entertainment industry where there are so many beautiful women, her figure is really good and well-proportioned.
Especially at this moment, Qiao Yan deliberately lowered her posture and tried to please him, which made Zhu Yang a little distracted.
"Why did you specially ask your brother Zhu out? Is there something wrong?" Zhu Yang asked with a smile, but his hand was dishonestly patting Qiao Yan's smooth thigh.
Qiao Yan, who is determined to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry, has a very strong mental quality. In the face of Zhu Yang's misconduct, the smile on her face remains unchanged. Instead, she reaches out and covers Zhu Yang's hand.
"Brother Zhu, I have always admired your abilities. Can you guide me?" Qiao Yan said in a soft voice.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yang had a puzzled expression on his face. To be honest, Qiao Yan's current conditions were very average in the entertainment industry, and her age did not give her any advantage. There were many female artists under his control who were better than Qiao Yan, so he was not very interested in signing Qiao Yan.
"Qiao Yan, it's not that Brother Zhu doesn't want to help you, your conditions are indeed average." Zhu Yang said loudly, completely disregarding Qiao Yan's feelings.
As a woman who attaches great importance to her appearance, especially Qiao Yan who had just had plastic surgery, she was of course unhappy to hear such words, especially since she was very satisfied with her current face. Although she was cursing Zhu Yang in her heart, she did not show it on her face at all.
"I came to you because I saw that you are capable. I used to be Teacher Zhao's assistant, and now I want to debut as an artist. She will definitely be unhappy and think that I have betrayed her. She will not let me have an easy time. Brother Zhu, if you are capable, please be kind enough to guide me. I will definitely repay you."
Qiao Yan's words sounded somewhat pathetic. She mentioned Zhao Wan on purpose because she knew about the conflict between Zhu Yang and Zhao Wan.
Sure enough, when Zhu Yang heard that Zhao Wan and Qiao Yan were not getting along, his mentality changed immediately. He was a very petty person. Zhao Wan kicked him away as soon as she became famous. This was a great humiliation for Zhu Yang. Unfortunately, he never found an opportunity to take revenge on Zhao Wan.
Now hearing Qiao Yan say that Zhao Wan didn't want her to be well, Zhu Yang's mind turned to something. If he could promote Qiao Yan, Zhao Wan would be furious to death when she saw that the assistant who betrayed her had also become a star, Zhu Yang thought proudly.
Even if Qiao Yan doesn't live up to his expectations, it won't be a big loss for Zhu Yang. Zhu Yang decided to sign Qiao Yan just because of Zhao Wan. It has to be said that Qiao Yan's guess about Zhu Yang's psychology was very accurate.
"Okay, since you're having a hard time, Brother Zhu will help you. Let's go to another place and have a deeper chat." Zhu Yang said the last sentence in a somewhat obscene manner, and pinched Qiao Yan's legs twice with his rough hands.
Qiao Yan was not a fool, so of course she understood what Zhu Yang meant. She left with Zhu Yang shyly and changed the venue.
Although Qiao Yan was just a small assistant before, she was more willing to sacrifice her life for the goal than some of the artists under Zhu Yang. The knowledgeable Zhu Yang admired her a little bit. So Zhu Yang signed Qiao Yan, with the stage name Qiao Fei.
The change from Qiao Yan to Qiao Fei happened one year faster than Qian Muchue remembered. Because it happened one year faster, Qiao Yan was not so familiar with the rules of the circle and had no noble people to help her, so she chose Zhu Yang as her agent, which deviated from the path she was supposed to take.
Zhu Yang's method of promoting his artists has always been to introduce sponsors to them. The capable artists would let the sponsors spend money to promote them. The same was true for Qiao Yan. Zhu Yang introduced her to many sponsors. Although Qiao Yan was not outstanding in appearance, she was knowledgeable and interesting. In the end, she became the lover of a local tycoon in his fifties.
The local tycoon generously invested in a TV series. As a newcomer, Qiao Yan played the leading female role in her first drama, but that is a story for another time.
As for Qian Muchue, she spent the second half of the year running between the crew, Chuxin and Oriental Verve Studios, and was even busier than Gong Chen. Therefore, in Qian Muchue's crew, Gong Chen could often be seen bringing his children to visit the set. This was no longer a new thing in the circle, and Gong Chen visited the set more frequently than he did to Qichen Film and Television.
To the extent that, whenever there are good projects, the senior management of Qichen Film and Television Company will contact Huang Qingqing to see if the president's wife is interested. At least they can see their boss on the crew.
At the end of the year, Qian Muchue received an invitation letter from a well-known brand charity. Most of the people who received the invitation letter were entrepreneurs. Qian Muchue received the invitation letter as the president of Chuxin Technology. In the past year, Chuxin Technology has been on the right track. It must be said that the identity of Mrs. Gong allowed Qian Muchue to meet many noble people on the entrepreneurial road, which accelerated the development of Chuxin.
Gong Chen receives an invitation to this brand's charity event every year, and usually asks Cheng Xu to go on his behalf and donate some money. This time Qian Muchue is going to attend, so Gong Chen will accompany her.
The interesting thing is that Gong Chen didn’t bring his invitation letter, and the staff who checked the invitation letter didn’t recognize him.
"Sir, please show us your invitation letter, thank you." The staff said politely.
"I am her male companion." Boss Gong pointed at Qian Muchue and said righteously, seeming quite proud.
Qian Muchue was speechless. He didn't even bring his own invitation, but used hers. How childish!
"Ma'am, please show us your invitation, thank you." Seeing the two holding hands, the staff member did not question Gong Chen's words and turned to check Qian Muchue's invitation.
Qian Muchue and the other person didn't arrive early, and many people had already arrived. Qian Muchue knew some of them, but most of them were people who knew her, and she didn't know anyone else. However, with Gong Chen there, she didn't have to bother with socializing.
The brand's charity fundraiser is used to support the education of children in poor mountain villages. The brand will first raise funds, and after the end, there will be a thank-you dinner, which is mainly to provide guests with a social occasion. This is also the purpose of some people coming to the charity. In addition to doing charity, they can also make connections.
This was Qian Muchue's first time attending such a charity event in this time and space. As for how much to donate, Cheng Xu gave her some advice before she came.
At the thank-you dinner, Qian Muchue met Zhao Wan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. The two hadn't seen each other for more than half a year since the Magnolia Awards ceremony. Qian Muchue has indeed been doing very well recently, and Zhao Wan can often see her information on the Internet.
Zhao Wan's career has been mediocre over the past six months and she has rarely made headlines. Qian Muchue is so busy that she doesn't pay much attention to her, so when they met this time, she almost didn't recognize her.
By the way, the official announcement of Qian Muchue and Gong Chen stimulated Zhao Wan. In this circle, female artists themselves would have some appearance anxiety, and Zhao Wan was no exception. She was confident that she was no worse than Qian Muchue in all aspects, but Qian Muchue was more successful than her in everything, but it was only because she was slightly better looking than her.
