Chapter 328 Gossip
Jiang Muyang decided to hold the female boss's thighs tightly and follow her pace.
I believe the female boss will not treat him unfairly.
Jiang Muyang chased out, and saw Hu Xiaoxiao and Dong Peiyu had already walked out of the building's gate and headed towards the parking lot.
Jiang Muyang took a few quick steps and decided to take their car to make a good impression.
"Sister Xiao!" Hu Xiaoxiao had just walked down the steps at the entrance of the building when a tall man with delicate features, fair skin and gentle temperament came towards her.
When the man saw Hu Xiaoxiao stop and look at him, his mouth widened, revealing his white teeth and warm smile. He quickened his pace and came in front of Hu Xiaoxiao.
Hu Xiaoxiao recognized the man as Zhang Zhengjie, a famous second-tier movie star in the film industry.
The film industry is full of hidden talents, and those who can climb to the second line are already extraordinary people.
Hu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Zhengjie have never met face to face, but they are in the same circle. Even if they have never dealt with each other, they have seen many movie or news posters.
"I dare not. Zhang Sheng debuted earlier than me and is older than me. I can't bear to be called Sister Xiao." Hu Xiaoxiao nodded slightly to him and said politely.
"Sister Xiao, you're too modest." Zhang Zhengjie said sincerely, with a sense of loyalty and honesty. "Sister Xiao's status today is already that of a superstar. Whether in the television or film industry, Sister Xiao is a leading figure. Wherever you go, you are a guarantee of ratings and box office success. You are already a legend in Baogang..."
Zhang Zhengjie's focused eyes were filled with ardent admiration, as if he was a fervent fan who saw his long-lost idol and expressed his admiration for her.
"Thank you for the compliment." Hu Xiaoxiao smiled brightly and generously. "It's an honor to receive recognition from my peers, especially from a well-known figure in the industry like Mr. Zhang. I'm very proud. I will work harder in the future to make Mr. Zhang's praise well-deserved. By the way, Mr. Zhang, are you here to look for friends?"
"Yes, I came here specifically to see you." Zhang Zhengjie said to Hu Xiaoxiao with a warm smile.
Hu Xiaoxiao looked surprised and asked, "I wonder what it is?"
Zhang Zhengjie explained his intention: "I heard that Shengshi Entertainment is recruiting artists. Since I have always admired Sister Xiao, I hope to have the opportunity to join Shengshi Entertainment and learn more from Sister Xiao."
At this time, Jiang Muyang came to Hu Xiaoxiao and heard what Zhang Zhengjie said. His heart skipped a beat. He looked at Zhang Zhengjie a few times and suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
He walked over to Hu Xiaoxiao and whispered, "Sister Xiao, we're in a hurry."
Zhang Zhengjie looked at Jiang Muyang and smiled charmingly, "This is also a new artist from Shengshi Entertainment, right? I haven't seen him in a movie before."
Jiang Muyang's lips curled up into a wide, handsome smile, but his eyes rarely shone with laughter. "Our Shengshi Entertainment has just been established, and we haven't released any movies yet. Isn't it normal that Mr. Zhang hasn't seen any? Are you here just to show off how many movies you've made?"
"How could that be?" Zhang Zhengjie said gently, "I'm very optimistic about Shengshi Entertainment. Under Sister Xiao's leadership, it will definitely become a first-class entertainment company in Baogang. That's why I want to join Shengshi Entertainment and contribute to its films. So, don't overthink it."
Hu Xiaoxiao glanced at the two of them with her beautiful eyes. Just as she was about to speak, Dong Peiyu asked, "Didn't Mr. Zhang sign with Giant Elephant Film Company? Has your contract expired? Mr. Qu is willing to let you go, the cash cow he cultivated with great difficulty?"
Zhang Zhengjie turned to face Dong Peiyu. He had long heard of Sister Dong's abilities and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Sister Dong to know me. I'm flattered. My contract with Juxiang Film expires next year. I'm really looking forward to developing my career at Shengshi and working under Sister Dong."
Dong Peiyu said modestly: "Mr. Zhang thinks too highly of me. I am just an employee of Mr. Huang, a wage earner. My work is assigned by the company."
"Sister Xiao." Zhang Zhengjie immediately turned to Hu Xiaoxiao and asked, "I've always been able to endure hardships when filming, and I'm not afraid of being tired. Sister Xiao, can you give me a chance?"
"Mr. Zhang has superb acting skills and a great reputation in the industry. Of course, I'd like to sign him to our company. But..." Hu Xiaoxiao said with some embarrassment, "If you were a complete newcomer with a low salary and the company didn't care about this small amount of money, I could talk to the HR department. But considering Mr. Zhang's worth, Mr. Huang's approval is needed. Excuse me, but aside from filming, I don't know anything else. Regarding the contract, please contact Mr. Huang."
Dong Peiyu looked at her watch and said, "Xiaoxiao, we're almost late."
Jiang Muyang urged, "Sister Xiao, we can't keep everyone waiting any longer. It's very rude. Let's go quickly."
Hu Xiaoxiao apologized to Zhang Zhengjie and went to the parking lot.
After getting in the car, they looked through the rearview mirror and saw Zhang Zhengjie still standing in front of the building, staring at them eagerly.
After Hu Xiaoxiao drove the car onto the road, he asked Dong Peiyu, "Sister Dong, what happened to Zhang Zhengjie?"
She realized that Dong Peiyu didn't like Zhang Zhengjie.
Dong Peiyu saw the car go for a while and asked Hu Xiaoxiao: "Do you know about Zhang Zhengjie's past?"
Hu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "I heard that when he first debuted, he filmed two pornographic films. Because of his good acting skills, he was noticed by a big director and filmed several feature films in succession. He won a lot of reputation and now he has been offered many film jobs."
While the experience of being in pornographic films isn't exactly glamorous, it's not something to be stigmatized against. Several stars who have made pornographic films have successfully transitioned to film roles and are now doing well in the industry.
So Hu Xiaoxiao doesn’t think that Dong Peiyu dislikes Zhang Zhengjie because of his experience in filming pornographic movies.
Dong Peiyu asked Hu Xiaoxiao again: "Do you know Xia Lu?"
"Xia Lu?" Hu Xiaoxiao asked, "Is it Xia Lu who returned to TV?"
"Yes, it's her. Zhang Zhengjie is her ex-boyfriend." Dong Peiyu said.
Hu Xiaoxiao was even more puzzled. It was normal for relationships between men and women in the entertainment industry to break up and get back together. Xia Lu had dated Zhang Zhengjie, so what was so strange about that?
Dong Peiyu sighed and said, "Many people know that Xia Lu and Zhang Zhengjie were in a relationship, but few know how they broke up. It was Zhang Zhengjie who forced Xia Lu to leave the film industry. The inside story wasn't revealed because of the help of the editors at Ji's Film.
Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look at Dong Peiyu with curiosity.
Jiang Muyang had been worried, fearing the company would take a fancy to Zhang Zhengjie and sign him even if they had to pay him a penalty, thus stealing his leading role. Hearing this, he sensed a sliver of gossip and sat upright in his chair, his eyes sparkling. But fearing his presence would be too prominent and affect Dong Peiyu's mood, he quickly lowered his eyelids and rolled his eyes.
