Chapter 16
Zhou Li was still wondering what Bai Sufang would say, but she got straight to the point.
Zhou Li thought about it and said, "I can't give you the contact information for now, but I can tell her. It depends on her own choice."
Only a few people knew that Chun Shui was disfigured in a car accident. Although some people in the industry had mentioned it, the matter was left unresolved because entertainment reporters had never taken a photo of her from the front.
Bai Sufang didn't know Chunshui's current situation. Although Zhou Li was very confident in the magical ancient recipe produced by the system store, she would not speak without Chunshui's permission as Chunshui's cheek had not yet recovered.
She naturally hoped that Chunshui would take on this film because it would help her complete her mission.
Bai Sufang covered her mouth and smiled, "I'm very happy that Doctor Zhou could help tell me. Let's continue with today's exercise."
The serious atmosphere disappeared, Zhou Li took Bai Sufang to the office, spread out two yoga mats and continued to practice light body exercises.
Chunshui stood quietly by the windowsill, the sun was high in the sky, emitting light and heat.
She was slightly puzzled as to why Dr. Zhou was so close to Director Zhang's wife. From her past experience, Zhou Li was not a helpful person. Although during these days of getting along, Dr. Zhou repeatedly broke the impression in her file.
At noon, Fang Yan called.
"Director Zhang has contacted us investors again, saying he wants to invest more. One of the female leads, Lizhi, has already accepted the script. I heard that the other female lead was originally Li Hongqing, but now that she has retired from the entertainment industry, Director Zhang is looking for a suitable candidate."
"Boss, shall we invest?" Fang Yan asked.
Chunshui lowered his eyes and unconsciously clicked the information about Zhou Li in his hand.
Zhou Li's personality changes were inconsistent with the information in the file, which made her uneasy.
"Invest." Chunshui said, "At the same time, we are also estimating other film projects. It's time to open a branch office."
"Yes, boss." Fang Yan replied respectfully.
Apart from stocks and holdings in some technology companies, the investment returns from movies can be said to be the largest, and Fang Yan also agrees with Chunshui's actions.
"So do you want to play this role?" Fang Yan asked carefully.
Chunshui was silent for a while.
Fang Yan sent her the outline of Director Zhang's script. It was a very adventurous movie, completely different from the style and subject matter of Director Zhang's previous films. It can be seen that Director Zhang was definitely aiming for awards.
Of course Chunshui wanted to act.
For an actor, a good script is hard to come by.
Director Zhang's script has a very hardcore story, exploring a group of marginalized people in society against a broader backdrop. It can be said to be a genre film most loved by foreign film critics.
But...her face...
Chunshui whispered, "Wait and see."
Let's wait and see if Zhou Li really has the ability to cure her.
There was a knock on the door, and Huang Xiaoyun said cautiously, "Doctor Zhou is here."
"Come in." Chunshui closed the document and put it in the drawer.
Zhou Li held the spare plate with a smug look on his face.
Things went according to her ideas, so she naturally couldn't help but feel happy.
It's just that she was happy, like a peacock spreading its feathers, everyone wanted to tease her, exuding her charm, making the young nurses in the hospital blush. Just now, Huang Xiaoyun was talking to her outside, and she was laughing too, until someone knocked on the door, then she quickly became serious.
Zhou Li came in and greeted him with a smile: "Good morning."
It was rare for her to relax and she felt that she and the heroine should have some kind of common understanding.
Chunshui glanced at the weather outside. It wasn't really early at all. She said indifferently, "Good morning, Doctor Zhou."
Zhou Li smiled broadly, "How are you feeling today? Are you still feeling unwell?"
Chunshui stood up from the single sofa, tightened the shawl on his shoulders, and said calmly: "Thanks to you, Doctor Zhou, I feel much better."
The smile on Zhou Li's face disappeared. She frowned and then relaxed her brows. Looking at Chunshui who was sitting back on the hospital bed waiting for treatment, she seemed different from yesterday?
Zhou Li felt that this was not her illusion.
Yesterday she thought they were already friends, but today Chunshui returned to the state he was when they first met, or rather, even colder than when they first met.
Zhou Li lifted Chunshui's chin, applied medicine to her, and carefully observed her emotions.
"Are you unhappy?" Zhou Li asked.
Chunshui closed her eyes. "Doctor Zhou, why do you ask that?" she asked back.
Zhou Li: "I feel like you're not in a good mood."
"I've always been like this, Dr. Zhou." Chunshui replied.
So yesterday was a special case?
Zhou Li put down his hand, "Okay."
Chunshui opened her eyes, but Zhou Li didn't move. The figure covered Chunshui, and she couldn't see Zhou Li's expression. Her eyes were filled with black mist, but Chunshui didn't dodge, and her eyes looked at Zhou Li stubbornly.
Zhou Li took a step back, and all the blocked light returned to Chun Shui.
She turned around to collect the things on the spare tray, her tone very calm.
"Director Zhang is about to start filming a new movie and wants you to be the female lead. Madam Bai brought me the beginning of the script today and asked me to pass it on to you. Please take a look and make a decision after you have read it."
Zhou Li took out the script from the spare tray, placed it neatly on the bedside table for Chunshui, and walked out the door.
A cold wind blew outside the door, blowing the hair on Chunshui's cheek away. She was stunned for a moment before looking at the script on the bedside.
The two big characters "Guanyin" were placed in the middle of the white paper.
So, has Zhou Li been approaching Director Zhang's wife these days just to find a role for her?
No wonder Chunshui thinks this way.
The information collected by Fang Yan's investigation showed that Zhou Li was actually a very cold person.
She only cares about money and not people. Even if someone kneels on the ground and begs her, she will only say, "Get the money ready."
Chunshui couldn't imagine that such a person would like him.
So I first tested her feelings, and she got angry; then I wanted to see how far she could go for myself. The script of "Guanyin" was already on her desk.
Chunshui picked it up and took a closer look.
She had already heard the general plot from Fang Yan, but this was the first time she got the script.
The story begins in a Chinese restaurant on Chinatown in the United States. 35-year-old Tang Huai is being chased by her creditors and has nowhere else to turn but becomes a streetwalker. Her first customer is a Chinese woman...
Chunshui's heart beat faster, he was happy to see a good script.
but……
She touched her left cheek, closed the script, and sat quietly for a long time.
When Huang Xiaoyun came in, she saw Chunshui in a daze again. She glanced at the boss cautiously and put the flowers in the vase on the bedside table for him.
This was something Dr. Zhou had specifically instructed, saying that the boss would be happier seeing flowers.
Doctor Zhou had just come out of the ward and was obviously very angry, but he suppressed his anger and told her to arrange the flowers.
Huang Xiaoyun couldn't understand how the cold-hearted boss could have angered the cheerful Dr. Zhou?
Zhou Li returned to the office, feeling unhappy and angry at the heroine's attitude.
The spring water is really unpredictable, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, even more changeable than the weather.
Zhou Li didn't know how he had offended her again. He had wanted to talk to her about the script, but now he didn't want to.
She collapsed on the sofa and wailed at the system, "It's no wonder the seniors left behind experience packs saying to be careful with the heroine. She's really difficult to deal with."
system:……
Zhou Li knew the system wouldn't answer her, because her Tucao system never responded. But she was optimistic and thought that the characters in "Guanyin" were so well-rounded that she wasn't worried that the female lead wouldn't be overjoyed.
When Zhou Li took the script from Huang Xiaoyun in a daze, she asked doubtfully, "Did she say anything?"
Huang Xiaoyun looked embarrassed: "My boss asked me to tell you something, to say..." She swallowed her saliva, very nervous, "to say..."
Zhou Li had a bad feeling and asked, "What did she say?"
Huang Xiaoyun closed her eyes and said everything.
Huang Xiaoyun: "The boss told Dr. Zhou to focus on treatment and not to meddle in other people's business!"
Zhou Li gritted his teeth and laughed angrily.
