Chapter 23
Because Lu Ganyuan said there was a very delicious restaurant near his studio, they went to Lu Ganyuan's studio in advance.
Lu Ganyuan's studio is in the city center.
Xie Yanning originally thought it was the first floor of an office building, but unexpectedly it was a place similar to a garden.
It’s a great honor to be able to carve out such a large piece of land to build your own studio in such a place where every inch of land is valuable.
Oh my God, there are so many rich people in the world, why can't there be one more like her?
I hope she will be a rich lady in the next world.
Although she is rich now, it is other people's money. Who knows when she will be stopped from using it?
As for the remuneration for the variety show, she was not very well-known to begin with and did not have much money. After dividing it with the company, there was even less left for her.
"This is the property I owned before I left the family." Lu Ganyuan knew what Xie Yanning was thinking from her expression. "I can't afford it now, and paying the rent is tough."
Lu Ganyuan didn't have much liquid cash and had thought about selling the house before, but if he did, he would definitely be laughed at by his family.
He made a lot of money in the entertainment industry, but there wasn't much left.
Lu Ganyuan took Xie Yanning to his office and said, "Choose one of the houses they said they would give you."
Xie Yanning looked at the three piles of property certificates on the coffee table.
Let me say it again, she wants to be a young lady in the next world!
"Are you serious?" Xie Yanning sat on the sofa and casually flipped through the property certificates. Many of them were properties she had known about before, and some she had never heard of. But just by looking at the names, she knew that they were not cheap properties and they were all very large.
Luxury properties that you haven't heard of may be more expensive. Xie Yanning had heard before that luxury residential communities would reduce their prices once their names became known.
"I can't live here anyway," Lu Ganyuan said, picking out a property deed. "I recommend this one, because I live in this neighborhood now."
"I've only rented the house for three years. I'm not planning on moving for the time being." Xie Yanning pushed the property certificate back. "I'm not shameless, but I'm not that shameless to take your house after only three days of negotiation."
"Then you can leave my card here." Lu Ganyuan took out another bank card and handed it over.
"Aren't you out of money?" Xie Yanning looked at the card that Lu Ganyuan pushed over.
"I'm not that poor! You're in a relationship with me, how could I let you continue using Li Yin's money?"
"Sometimes face is useless." Xie Yanning said.
Lu Ganyuan stuffed the card into Xie Yanning's hand: "I know, but it's very useful at this time."
He had despised Li Yin so many times. If Xie Yanning still used Li Yin's money, it would seem that he was too cowardly. How could he have the right to despise Li Yin the next time he saw him?
"I spend a lot of money. When we first met, I just spent three million on Li Yin." Xie Yanning looked at Lu Ganyuan and reminded him.
"It's okay, it's only three million. Go ahead and spend it. My endorsement fee just arrived not long ago." Lu Ganyuan said. What a joke. If Li Yin can spend it for Xie Yanning, then of course he can let Xie Yanning spend it.
Xie Yanning: ...
Xie Yanning patted Lu Ganyuan's face and said, "Then I won't be polite."
"Let's go eat. I asked my assistant to buy some. He should be back soon."
"Okay." Xie Yanning nodded.
Lu Ganyuan took Xie Yanning to a place specially used to entertain guests.
There is a large round table in the room, and outside the floor-to-ceiling window is a beautiful small garden.
The table was too big, so the two of them still sat together.
Not long after they sat down, Lu Ganyuan's assistant came back. Xiao Li also brought two staff members with him, making a total of three people, each carrying two lunch boxes.
"How much did you buy?" Xie Yanning frowned.
"Not much. The portions at that restaurant are very small." Lu Ganyuan explained, "It won't be wasted."
Xiao Li took out the dishes and put them on the table.
The portions of the dishes were indeed small, with only a little bit of each dish, and it felt like three or four bites would be enough. However, they smelled delicious, and Xie Yanning's attention was quickly attracted to the dishes on the table. He didn't feel very hungry before, but now he suddenly felt his stomach was empty.
After taking all the dishes, Xiao Li looked at Xie Yanning curiously several times.
When I watched the interview with Xie Yanning before, I felt that Xie Yanning was not an ordinary person and was very courageous. Now it seems that he is indeed very extraordinary.
When I knew that Xie Yanning and Lu Ganyuan were together, I thought Xie Yanning was the one coaxing Lu Ganyuan, but I didn't expect the reality to be the opposite.
Looking at the way the two of them were dressed today, you could tell that Lu Ganyuan had used all the small accessories he had given her yesterday, while Xie Yanning wore no makeup, her hair was casually tied in a ponytail, and her clothes were mainly comfortable. Xie Yanning's face was here, and she looked very beautiful no matter how she dressed, but you could tell at a glance that Lu Ganyuan had put more thought into it.
"Hey, I always feel that my weight will increase sharply after being with you." Xie Yanning picked up the chopsticks and swallowed his saliva.
"Working out with me every day won't make you fat." Lu Ganyuan helped Xie Yanning pick up a piece of food with his chopsticks, then glanced at Xiao Li who was still standing next to him, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"Oh, I'm going." Xiao Li came back to his senses, left quickly under Lu Ganyuan's gaze, and closed the door.
The two staff members asked curiously, "Brother Lu and Xie Yanning are talking?"
"Well, don't go out and say anything. They just got together and they're not going to make it public for now." Xiao Li nodded. "Let's go eat. I'm starving."
They also ate food from the same restaurant. Lu Ganyuan was very generous to his subordinates. They ate whatever Lu Ganyuan ate. Many people gained weight after entering Lu Ganyuan's studio.
"Sure enough, when I was watching the show, I felt that Brother Lu cared about Xie Yanning a lot. At that time, I was wondering when Brother Lu had ever given someone so much face. Hahahaha, I guessed right."
"It's not easy to talk. I thought Lu Ge would end up alone."
…
Lu Ganyuan wanted to chat with Xie Yanning, but when Xie Yanning started eating, he had no time to talk. At most, he shared his love for food with him.
Lu Ganyuan glanced at Xie Yanning with resentment.
"What's that look in your eyes?" Xie Yanning happened to catch such a look.
"I feel like I'm not as attractive as the food on the table." Lu Ganyuan sighed lightly.
Xie Yanning held the rice bowl, turned around, and looked at Lu Ganyuan: "Is this okay?"
Lu Ganyuan felt uncomfortable under Xie Yanning's burning gaze. This person also liked to glance around. In the end, he couldn't bear it anymore and reached out his hand to push her face back: "No, you should just eat your meal."
"Oh." Xie Yanning laughed. "Are you so shameless? No, I have to look at you. You are my boyfriend, so it is natural for me to look at you. I have to stare at you. If I don't stare at you, I can't eat."
"I was wrong, Miss, you should eat well."
Xie Yanning leaned against the road and laughed out loud.
After dinner, Xie Yanning followed Lu Ganyuan back to the office, and Lu Ganyuan played the demo of the title song of the new album for her.
"Will it feel weird?" Lu Ganyuan added many new elements to the title song of his new album, which can be considered innovative, but the people in the studio currently have rather extreme opinions on this song.
Xie Yanning propped up his chin and listened to it a few more times. "It feels quite interesting. Although some parts are a bit strange, they are very catchy. Anyway, I like it, especially... this part, which is..."
Xie Yanning hummed with effort.
Lu Ganyuan blinked, listened for a long time, thought for a few seconds, and hummed again: "This part?"
"Yeah." Xie Yanning nodded. "You can actually hear it?"
"Well, you hummed the key part. I like this part the most too." Lu Ganyuan said.
Xie Yanning reached out and rubbed Lu Ganyuan's face. "Don't worry too much about what others think. Didn't you say you entered the industry just to show your work? Just be happy."
"You're right." Lu Ganyuan raised his eyebrows.
Although I always say that I don’t care about other people’s opinions, after being in the circle for a long time, I can’t help but pay attention to other people’s opinions. After all, who doesn’t want their work to be praised by others?
Lu Ganyuan played demos of other songs for Xie Yanning. This time, Lu Ganyuan released a regular album with a total of twelve songs, covering all kinds of styles. After listening to them continuously, it felt that the emotions of these songs were connected.
"Nice!" Xie Yanning nodded and gave a serious evaluation from an amateur's perspective. Every song had that. Lu Ganyuan's lyrics were very abstract in some places. He didn't seem to like direct expression, and coincidentally, Xie Yanning didn't like it either.
Lu Ganyuan originally thought that Xie Yanning was just giving some encouraging praise from the perspective of a girlfriend.
But the more he listened, the brighter his eyes became, and the look he gave Xie Yanning became even more intense: "You can hear what I'm trying to say!"
"That's right, I listened very carefully!"
Lu Ganyuan held Xie Yanning's face and kissed her, feeling a little excited.
"When the album is released, you must give me an autograph. I want TO to sign it."
"Okay." Lu Ganyuan hugged Xie Yanning tightly, feeling happy.
Xie Yanning stayed in the studio with Lu Ganyuan for a whole day, but they didn't finish recording a single song. In fact, she felt that every take was perfect, but Lu Ganyuan always felt it was not enough and re-recorded it over and over again.
Xie Yanning also did some serious work. In the afternoon, her agent sent her two scripts for her to take a look. Lu Ganyuan's agent also gave Xie Yanning the audition script directed by Wang Chen.
She first read Wang Chen's audition script, and after reading it, she became interested in the surprisingly evil third female lead.
The two scripts sent by her agent were both low-budget scripts. After she appeared on that variety show, her popularity increased a lot, but not too much, so there were still few people who asked her to act.
She glanced at the two scripts and found them just average. However, if she was willing, she could sign a contract and join the crew directly without having to audition.
One is the second female lead in a cheerful and nonsensical palace comedy.
One is a youth campus drama, a web drama adapted from a novel IP, and she also plays the second female lead.
Xie Yanning plans to audition first. If she fails, she will choose a web drama adapted from an IP. The character of the second female lead is quite likable and not difficult to play.
This is a cheerful and nonsensical palace drama, but the plot is too nonsensical. Moreover, comedy requires higher acting skills, and if you don’t act well, you can easily become a fool.
Xie Yanning asked about the audition time, asked Brother Wang to help him make an appointment, and then told his agent.
Li Ming naturally had no objection. How could those two low-cost web dramas compare to Wang Chen's drama?
Wang Chen’s audition for a play is next week, and after the audition he can continue recording the variety show.
In the next few days, Xie Yanning did not come to accompany Lu Ganyuan to record songs, but stayed at home to figure out the character and script.
On the day of the audition, Li Ming put aside other things and came to accompany her. After knowing that Li Yin had sent a plane to pick up Xie Yanning, his attitude became more and more fawning, and he wanted to worship Xie Yanning as his ancestor.
Seeing Xie Yanning, Li Ming handed her a glass of water.
Xie Yanning still had a bad face towards Li Ming: "Be more normal. If others saw this, they would think I was bullying you."
Li Ming was speechless and gave a stiff smile.
Today, the second, third and fourth female actors all have to audition. There are so many people coming to audition that the entire floor is packed.
Xie Yanning signed in first, took his number plate, and found an empty seat to sit down.
She looked around and saw many famous artists.
Xie Yanning felt that she was the blurriest one no matter how she looked at it, and then she saw a familiar woman in it.
Xu Lanying.
When Xie Yanning looked over, Xu Lanying also saw her. She seemed a little surprised to see her and smiled.
Xu Lanying was quite curious about why Xie Yanning was here. Didn’t Director Le contact Xie Yanning?
She was a little curious, so she got up and walked over.
Xie Yanning glanced at the other party's queue. Xu Lanying was auditioning for the second female lead. It looked like it was almost her turn, but she still had time to come over and cause trouble.
She didn't expect Xu Lanying to be so shameless. She had done such a thing.
Thinking of the passages in various novels, Xie Yanning became 200% alert.
"Why are you here?" Xu Lanying looked at Xie Yanning.
"Why can't I be here?" Xie Yanning looked at Xu Lanying puzzledly.
Xu Lanying knocked on the table twice, then laughed as if she had thought of something. "I thought you had already joined the crew. After all, Director Wang Chen's scene overlaps with Director Le's."
"Le Dao?"
"Yeah." Xu Lanying looked at Xie Yanning. Sure enough, something happened that she didn't know about. "Director Le Yu."
Xie Yanning looked at Li Ming beside him, and Li Ming said he didn't know either.
"Ah, I heard before that Director Le wants you to be the heroine of his new drama." Xu Lanying continued, observing Xie Yanning's expression. Looking at her expression, she knew that she really knew nothing.
"I haven't received any news." Xie Yanning paused, "Is this why you sent someone to cause trouble for me?"
Xu Lanying spread her hands, her expression still somewhat innocent: "I can't help it. I really like that role, but I didn't expect that Director Le didn't contact you in the end."
Xie Yanning looked at Xu Lanying: "You really are..."
"That's how the entertainment industry is." Xu Lanying looked at Xie Yanning. "You've been in the entertainment industry for so long, are you still so naive?"
Xie Yanning stared at Xu Lanying: "So if I want to do something to you later, do you think it's right?"
"I'm not as skilled as you." Xu Lanying looked at Xie Yanning with a smile, "You're not suited to the entertainment industry. It's better for you to quit as soon as possible."
"You talk too much and are not suitable for the entertainment industry. You don't look quite right either." Xie Yanning looked at Xu Lanying, "You should quit the entertainment industry as soon as possible and take good care of yourself."
Li Ming looked at Xie Yanning. Why was Xie Yanning speaking so directly now? How was this different from directly cursing someone?
Xu Lanying was not angry: "I am indeed sick. If I were not sick, why would I come to talk to you?"
After Xu Lanying finished speaking, she left. Xie Yanning frowned and looked at her back. Why was this person so weird?
She frowned. The fact that Xu Lanying had been so impatient to attack her at that time meant that the other party's information had some basis. But why didn't Director Le come to find her? Was there someone more powerful behind this?
It turned out that working in a small company was not good at all. She herself didn't know that Director Le wanted to find her, and her damn agent didn't know either, but other people knew.
Xie Yanning looked at Li Ming, completely confused: "Why are you so useless?"
Li Ming: ...
"I'll ask someone to check it out." Li Ming smiled and went out to contact the contact first.
Xie Yanning pushed the messy things out of his mind. The most important thing now was the audition.
The audition was very quick, one person every three minutes, and a group of people went in smiling, but their faces looked grim.
Director Wang Chen's words were always harsh, and I don't know what kind of comments they received.
After waiting for about an hour and a half, Xie Yanning finally arrived.
Xie Yanning took a deep breath and walked in.
She was auditioning for the role of the third female lead, a princess with a perverted mentality. Taking advantage of her status as the emperor's favorite, she committed all sorts of evil deeds. The princess was a fun-loving person, doing many things simply for her own pleasure, without any particular purpose.
She likes the male lead, but here she means she likes to see him suffer. The more suffering he suffers, the happier she is.
The audition script described her many times as having a calm expression and crazy eyes. Xie Yanning suspected that this princess might be a tragic character, but in the end he found that this princess was really just evil, evil for no reason and not forced by the environment.
How fitting for her role.
Wang Chen looked up at Xie Yanning, then lowered his head to look at Xie Yanning's personal information. After listening to her self-introduction, he asked Xie Yanning to draw a clip herself.
Xie Yanning's luck was average, as he drew the clip where the princess forced the male lead to drink. This clip was not difficult, and the possibility of it being outstanding was not as great as other clips.
