Thinking about what happened a year ago, Cheng Xu sighed that even someone as powerful as his boss couldn't always have it all his way.
Gong Chen is the general manager of Gong Group, one of the top three companies in Country H. His grandfather Gong Youwei is the chairman of Gong Group. His father Gong Mingwei is Gong Youwei's only son. His mother Xie Ying is the daughter of Xie Group.
Compared with his identity as the heir of Gong Group, Gong Chen is also the boss of Qichen Film and Television, the leading film and television company in Country H. Qichen Film and Television separated from Gong Group and was founded by Gong Chen at the age of 20. The initial capital came from bank loans.
Gong Chen has a unique vision and has made several big IP movies. In just three years, Qichen Film and Television became the number one film and television company in Country H. With the funds accumulated in the film and television industry, Gong Chen founded Qichen Real Estate. Unlike the Gong Group which mainly focuses on real estate projects in first-tier cities, Qichen Real Estate focuses on potential second-tier cities. With low investment costs and high returns, Qichen Real Estate has developed rapidly and has a place among many old-established real estate groups.
Unlike his successful career, Gong Chen's family relationships are a mess. Gong Mingwei and Xie Ying had a business marriage. When Gong Chen was 7 years old, a woman appeared in front of him with a boy, saying that he was his younger brother. From then on, little Gong Chen knew that his father was cheating.
His mother, Xie Ying, is a true strong woman. It seems that she has completed her mission by giving birth to Gong Chen. She doesn't care about her husband or her son.
The only normal person in the Gong family is the head of the family, Gong Youwei. Gong Youwei knows his son and daughter-in-law very well, so he personally takes care of the education of his grandson Gong Chen. He also trains Gong Chen as the heir of the Gong Group, and his importance is far higher than that of his son Gong Mingwei.
Therefore, Gong Chen's greatest malice in the Gong family comes from his biological father Gong Mingwei. Gong Mingwei has no fatherly love for this son who was born to snatch away his inheritance rights.
Last year, Gong Youwei was found to have a physical abnormality, and Gong Chen was recalled to Gong Group and appointed as the general manager. It was because of this incident that angered Gong Mingwei. When Gong Chen went on a business trip to City A for social events, he arranged for someone to drug his son's wine. He also maliciously arranged for an underage girl to induce Gong Chen to commit a crime, just to deprive Gong Chen of his position as general manager.
Gong Chen was also quick-witted and quickly realized that something was wrong and withdrew in time. That day, Chen Xu sent Gong Chen to room 888 of the Universal Hotel and immediately went to find a doctor. Unexpectedly, Qian Muchue was also in the room.
When Cheng Xu came back, he was shocked, thinking that it was Gong Mingwei's backup plan. He regretted not checking the room. This was the most unforgivable mistake he had ever made as Gong Chen's assistant. He still felt scared when he thought about it now.
Fortunately, it was later found out that it was an accident. Qian Muchue had a clean background and had nothing to do with Gong Mingwei.
Gong Chen's memory of that night was vague. Under the influence of drugs, he only had primitive movements. If he hadn't met Qian Muchue today, he would have forgotten that night.
…….
Since the last birthday party, Qian Muchue and Zhao Xi have suddenly become closer, probably because they have a common enemy.
As for the dress designed for Zhao Xi, Qian Muchue first made a design draft after taking Zhao Xi's measurements. Zhao Xi was very satisfied after seeing it. Of course, even if she didn't like it, Zhao Xi wouldn't say anything. After all, her purpose was to provoke Zhao Wan.
Zhao Xi was Qian Muchue's first high-end customer. Qian Muchue put a lot of effort into her dress, which was her living signboard. Zhao Xi didn't get the dress until a month later, but that's another story.
Ever since Feng Qing's "We" was broadcast on Qichen Video, Qian Muchue has become a little famous on the Internet for her role as Bai Wei. Qian Muchue took some time to watch it, and the barrage of comments was full of praise for Qian Muchue's role as Bai Wei.
After all, "We" is a student project, and the actors are all students and unknown. Although Feng Qing has excellent skills, it is restricted by the script and the shooting environment, and there is still a big gap between it and a truly good movie.
Most of the audience who watched "Us" did not come to watch the acting. Qian Muchue's acting skills are indeed good, but the role of Bai Wei became popular entirely because of her appearance.
[Ahhh, the young lady is so pretty]
[I'm in love, I declare, Bai Wei is my dream girlfriend]
[3 minutes, I want to know this girl's name]
[Upstairs, you can drag the progress bar to the end, cast]
【witty】
[Bai Wei is so beautiful. If the goddess were in our class, I would promise not to skip classes every day.]
[Does the young lady have a Weibo account? Thousands of people petition in blood to ask for her Weibo account]
…
The barrage of comments greatly affected the viewing of the plot. Qian Muchue had to turn off the barrage of comments so that she could watch the movie quietly. As her first work in this world, Qian Muchue gave herself an 8. The role was not difficult. Most of the time, she was responsible for beauty, and there were relatively few emotional scenes.
In addition to being popular online, in real life, when walking on campus, Qian Muchue found that many people were secretly taking pictures of her, and the bolder ones even brought books to ask for autographs and photos.
Qian Muchue actually felt a little ashamed. As expected, after being away from the circle for a long time, her business ability has declined.
At this time, Feng Qing brought her a piece of news that Director Liu was casting for his new movie and wanted her to audition.
Qian Muchue was very surprised. Director Liu was a famous director in Country H. He was good at shooting commercial films. Although he had not won many awards, his films had high box office. His film casting required not only strength but also popularity. Qian Muchue was not even an 18th-tier actor, so she was surprised that Director Liu liked her.
The two met at the A University Coffee Shop where they first met and talked about the matter in detail.
"You mean, Director Liu watched 'Us' and felt that the Bai Wei I played was very similar to the heroine in his new movie when she was little."
"That's what happened. Their assistant director contacted me and I thought this was a great opportunity. If you're interested in developing a career in the film and television industry, Director Liu's films are not to be missed."
Feng Qing has always been optimistic about Qian Muchue's talent. This time, a micro-film can make her popular because she also brought more people to see her work. Actors and directors complement each other. Some people are born to be in front of the camera, so Feng Qing strongly urged Qian Muchue to seize the opportunity. He has a hunch that they will work together again in the future.
Qian Muchue understood what Feng Qing said. Although the heroine didn't have many scenes when she was a child and basically lived in the hero's memories, this opportunity allowed her to appear on the big screen, which was indeed not to be missed.
Qian Muchue's plan this year is to focus on her studies at University A. Once she successfully obtains her diploma and Qian Xiaoya has grown up a little, she will step into the film and television industry. With her experience in her previous life, she is confident that she can seize any opportunity and is not in a hurry to enter the circle.
But Director Liu has already given her such a good opportunity, and if she doesn’t seize it, she won’t be Qian Muchue.
"When is Director Liu's audition?"
"There's no specific audition for this role. The assistant director over there wants a video audition. Let's shoot a video of the heroine as a child and send it to him."
Qian Muchue could understand that the heroine had very few scenes when she was a child, so there was really no need to hold a special audition. Of course, what she didn't know was that she was the only actor currently being considered to play the heroine's childhood role, so there was no need to hold a special audition.
Finally, with the help of Feng Qing, Qian Muchue filmed a scene of the heroine's childhood. Since there were not many scenes originally, Qian Muchue filmed almost all the main scenes. The difficulty of this audition was unmatched, and she was just acting along with the air, but Feng Qing said it was very good.
The audition video was sent through Qian Muchue's email, and then it was time to wait for the results.
…
In mid-November, Qian Muchue did not receive any notification from the crew, but received a call from Qian Yifeng.
Ever since the last meeting, Grandma Qian had been thinking about this matter. She didn't expect that Qian Yifeng would hesitate for a month before confirming the time and place for a dinner in the same city. Qian Muchue said that even the national leaders were not as busy as him.
But for Grandma Qian's sake, she said nothing.
Before going out, she explained to Chen Yu that this was the first time Qian Muchue and Grandma Qian went out together, leaving Qian Xiaoya at home. The little guy was a little noisy, and Qian Muchue coaxed him for a long time before the little guy looked at his mother and great-grandmother going out together with a wronged look.
Qian Muchue and Grandma Qian felt so distressed when they saw the pitiful look of the little girl. Grandma Qian almost wanted to take Qian Xiaoya with her, but fortunately she still had her wits about her.
Qian Muchue brought Grandma Qian to Yangji Restaurant on time and found that it was a very high-end restaurant with two floors and luxurious decoration. They guessed that a meal there would not be cheap.
Qian Muchue was slightly surprised. Based on her understanding of Qian Yifeng and Zhang Shan, even if they had money, they would not spend it on her and Grandma Qian. It would be more reasonable to find an ordinary restaurant.
What she didn't expect was that Qian Yifeng and his wife would actually greet them at the door. What kind of evil wind was blowing? After not seeing them for a month, they looked like filial sons and grandsons. Qian Muchue was suspicious.
Grandma Qian was very happy to see her son. The old lady shed tears and kept saying that Qian Yifeng had lost weight.
Compared to the old lady's tears, Qian Yifeng was relatively calm and offered a few perfunctory words of comfort. Zhang Shan didn't say much at all. Qian Muchue saw this scene and thought, well, this is the normal style.
