Chapter 151 The Most Martian Second Generation
Plans cannot keep up with changes. This sentence is very appropriate for Ye Mengyu.
So, without the father and daughter objecting, the original rest plan was cancelled.
"You really agree? Mr. Jiang is really so love-brained that he's happy to be a househusband?"
Sister Luan's three views were shattered once again.
She was an insider who knew that Jiang Fanyu had paid money to make the rich list but did not rank him on it. She knew very well that in terms of personal wealth, Jiang Fanyu was already the richest man.
I really can't understand it. Even if Ye Mengyu is cheating and has established the image of a doting wife, aren't they in a marriage by agreement?
As for being so immersed in the role?
What’s the point?
"I'm looking forward to seeing how President Jiang will respond when he's ridiculed as a stay-at-home husband by the internet after your official announcement."
I'm really curious.
Was his title of richest man just a lucky chance?
Why can some people who stay at home and don’t like to go out still become the richest man?
Who are you trying to piss off to death?
"Hehe, I'm very charming. Even if I die early, I will be the white moonlight that Mr. Jiang will never forget for the rest of his life. It's no big deal for me to stay at home and take care of my wife and children. Just calm down. I'm just a little clingy, it's not a big deal. It doesn't affect my income."
Tsk, Sister Luan rolled her eyes at her, "Such a show-off. Since you want to take the job, I'll arrange my schedule accordingly."
"It's just a normal process here, nothing serious. It's time to let Qiqi and Keke exercise. Sister, you can focus on the movie. After all, a person's energy is limited. Don't always think of yourself as Superman. Big boss, there's no need to do everything yourself."
Not only does she manage her schedule, she has to personally oversee everything. She also worries about the other artists, such as Qiao Xing, Qiao Ran, and Qi Yi, who are all very busy right now, so she has to split her attention to take care of them. She also has to follow up on any changes to the film.
She is really a superhero and a strong woman.
I don’t know how people in their fifties can be so energetic.
"Okay, okay, I'll take care of them for a few more months. I really need a break. Right now is the most important stage for artists, as they're just starting out. Their managers are all newbies. If I don't keep an eye on them, they might get sold out and end up helping out with the money. I'll just take care of them for a few more months and then I'll let them go."
The big boss who holds half of the shares really doesn't need to follow her in everything, and he doesn't pay her more salary.
It's just that the sense of responsibility is too strong.
Everyone in the family protested, fearing that she would ruin her health.
"You can never make enough money, so be content."
"Okay, I get it, but don't waste your time. You're only in your twenties, but you act like an old lady..."
The daily bickering mode started again.
This is a little break in the busy life.
"Don't always take it for granted. You still have to pay a little."
Sister Luan still grumbled something before hanging up the phone.
Ye Mengyu thought about it and realized that this was indeed what he said.
"Honey, the baby is big enough now, so we can go out and play. Let's go to the playground? We haven't been out to play together since I was expecting my baby."
Jiang Fanyu is of course happy that the mother and daughter can spend more parent-child time together. He is a complete daughter slave and he will do anything as long as it is for the good of the baby.
"Okay, which amusement park do you want to go to?"
After saying that, he still listened carefully to the baby's inner voice.
But it didn't take a long time. The baby was looking at his mother, waiting for her to make a decision.
Seeing the father and daughter like this, Ye Mengyu felt a pang of sadness. "Let's see which amusement park is available for private use recently. Any place is fine. The most important thing is that we are together as a family, so what we play is not that important."
"Okay, I'll have someone arrange it."
"Before I join the group, if you have some free time, let's take Baby out for some more walks and sightseeing. Baby hasn't been to the island yet, so why not take her fishing? Go to the castle, go to the vineyard.
By the way, Dad Jiang, when it comes to enjoying life, you are not as well-rounded as Grandpa Zhou.
Shouldn’t we also buy some property?”
Thinking the island, castle, and vineyard all belong to my scumbag dad.
It seems that Jiang Fanyu, as the new richest man, has no entertainment industry?
"Yes, I have an island and a winery, but I don't have a castle. I do have farms, yachts, and properties in all the first-tier cities in the world. Most of them were taken over from the previous batch of bankrupt tycoons..."
The assets of the top tycoons are pretty much the same, the only difference is their foundation. The Jiang family was also a wealthy family before, but not as wealthy as he inherited. The lack of foundation can be made up by learning from others.
Ye Mengyu thought it was quite similar. "Then we should let the baby see her father's business. When she grows up, she can't invite her friends over without knowing about the family's business, right? Her grandmother took her to visit all the galleries and exhibition halls under her name a long time ago."
Jiang Fanyu laughed, "Can she wait until we take her there? Every time her grandmother takes her over to play, she never stays at home."
Oh, yes.
The baby is born to be the darling of the family, and the elders in the family treat him or her like a treasure.
Since the baby was over 100 days old, weaned from breastfeeding and able to travel with a bottle, the elders would come to our house to pick up the baby as soon as they had free time, take the baby out to show off and take him for a walk.
Not to mention Ye Mengyu's grandparents, they cherish their first great-grandchild so much that they wish they could keep the baby with them every day.
But they are too old and their health does not allow it. They just send it over every ten days or half a month so that the elderly can see it and they are happy.
Previously, there was news that Ye Mengyu had given birth to a child because she was photographed bringing her child back to the old house with her grandparents.
Behind her, the second sister brought a large group of people, including a nanny, driver and bodyguard, pushing the baby to go shopping in the mall. The news was all about the third generation heir of the Zhou family.
The company's official Weibo account directly issued a statement, acknowledging that he is indeed the third-generation heir, without further elaboration. It also emphasized that he should not interfere with the growth of minors, that he is not a public figure, and that he does not want to attract too much attention.
It was not clearly stated whose child it was, but because of the second sister's deliberate guidance in her actions, everyone thought it was her child.
A discussion has been sparked online about how much property this child can inherit.
The popularity directly overshadowed the previous rumors about Ye Mengyu giving birth to a child.
Later, Ms. Wei also took the baby out with her current boyfriend. When someone approached her and asked about the baby's identity, she generously said that it was her grandson.
It also cleared up the previous speculation that Ms. Ye was brought here with her scumbag father.
It is certain that this child is Zhou Wenqu's grandson, so it is reasonable for him to raise the child with any female companion.
From now on, you don’t have to be as cautious when taking care of your children as you would in the game Tunnel Warfare. As long as you don’t show the baby’s face, there will be no problem.
Mrs. Jiang's situation is more troublesome. Jiang Fanyu has officially announced that he has a child, so it's normal for a grandmother to take care of the baby. The problem is that the child of actor Jiang is too popular. Whenever she is photographed with the child, it will become a hot search.
Any stroller, water bottle, milk bottle, or bib used by the baby will be turned upside down.
The most Martian second generation, for sure.
For the next two months, Ye Mengyu's main job was to travel around the world with her baby and Mr. Jiang.
Of course, eating and drinking are only the responsibility of the two adults. There are many restrictions on babies eating complementary foods.
Every time they heard the sharp roar in the baby's heart, the regret that she could not eat the delicious food, and the little account book she silently created in her heart, writing down every missed delicacy and every entertainment activity she could not play, the couple had a wonderful little pleasure like a prank.
Of course, you have to know when to tease a child. They are your own children. Teasing them does not mean abusing them. Just do it in moderation.
At least the little notebook in her small brain should be big enough to remember all the accounts.
When relatives and friends at home are free, they will come and act as a third wheel, saying that they are taking a vacation to help take care of the children so that the two of them can enjoy some time alone. In fact, they are just third wheels who eat, drink and take advantage of the children.
Mr. Jiang has a lot of work to do and usually works online for seven or eight hours every day.
I have to go back to my country on business trips from time to time.
Occasionally, Ye Mengyu would return to China to attend events.
Overall, it was a pretty good game.
It was a rare relaxing day in recent years.
When I was about to give birth, I was facing various inconveniences due to pregnancy, so I was not so happy.
Delicious.
Two months later, I separated from my baby and Mr. Jiang and returned to China alone.
Start preparing for the new play.
Ye Mengyu actually felt as if he was in another world.
"I'm a little uncomfortable with being so busy all of a sudden..."
When trying on the costumes, I kept thinking about my baby, getting distracted, and feeling lazy. I didn't hear the director calling me several times, and Xiaoqi had to remind me.
"I understand. I was in the same situation back then. I had been taking care of my child at home for three years. When he started kindergarten, I was so depressed that I cried every day at home. I couldn't do anything. But Lao Kong saw that I couldn't do it, so he insisted on dragging me to the crew and left the child with my mother. I stayed with him on the crew for three months. At that time, there was no video conferencing, so I just called the landline at home to hear my son's voice.
Oh, I was tortured. I don’t know how I got through this.”
Teacher Danyang was also present. When she heard Ye Mengyu say that she had just separated from her child and was often distracted, she immediately started talking.
"Before, her father always took care of her, and I didn't think much of it. But this time, I've been taking care of her for about two months, and we've been together almost the entire time. I don't know why, but she feels like she's lost as soon as we're apart..."
The baby can pronounce words, but it's just a developmental issue, and he can't speak clearly yet. He can only express simple one or two words. But her child is special. Often, in her and Mr. Jiang's opinion, the baby speaks a lot in his head and mouths a bunch of unknown syllables, and only one or two words can be analyzed.
It is very different from ordinary babies and very interesting.
The nanny also said that she had taken care of so many children, but had never seen a child who could speak in strings, and the children in Turpan didn't speak in strings as soon as they learned to speak.
Everyone found it interesting.
Normally, the little guy would act cool and aloof from time to time, either not speaking or expressing himself as clearly as possible, word by word.
When I get anxious, I say a lot.
The trend won't last long.
Nanny Zhang said, "Our Miss An An is very smart, has her own ideas, and knows what she's thinking. She's really amazing."
I don’t even know how it started, but Ye Mengyu chatted with Teacher Danyang about the daily life of Zaizai for half an hour.
He was talking non-stop.
"How about we finish the work first and then you two can talk alone?"
Director Kong finished shooting one set of makeup for the male lead and went to change into the next look, interrupting the mothers' conversation speechlessly.
"Oops, sorry, sorry, I got distracted again."
Ye Mengyu quickly apologized.
Go over and take pictures.
When I came back to change into my new bride look, I quickly took the script and discussed with Teacher Danyang what the heroine's attitude was towards the young marquis when she first married into the marquis's mansion, and whether she had any expectations for the relationship between husband and wife.
Is it reasonable to have expectations, or is it reasonable to be calculating from the beginning to the end?
There are very few expectations. When the groom leaves the bridal chamber on an excuse, he withdraws all his feelings and takes every step carefully.
Or is it that after getting married, she had several fights with her mistress and was suppressed by her mother-in-law, so she decided to take the maidservant who had always had an ambiguous relationship with the young marquis as a concubine to divert the conflict, and then she sat on the mountain and watched the fight between the two tigers, and then gave up all her expectations of the male protagonist? Is there more dramatic conflict?
Everyone has their own understanding of the characters. Teacher Danyang is not someone who is unwilling to listen to other people's opinions. She is also well aware that open discussion is often more inspiring to the author.
When Director Kong came to call people for the second time, he was helpless at first, but after standing aside and listening for a few words, he understood some of the meaning.
As a director, he certainly has a different understanding of the characters, and it is from a male perspective.
Join the discussion directly.
Wang Chuanjiao was forced by Sister Luan to work as an assistant director under Director Kong to learn from him.
I waited in the studio for a long time but didn't see anyone. The assistant told me that he was having a small meeting in the dressing room.
I could only come over and call out, "Everyone, let's finalize the makeup first, okay? We still need to try out a few more rounds of makeup. This matter is urgent and important, and the hotel rent is very expensive."
What I mean is, if you want to discuss the plot, you can go back to the company or discuss it in the online group. If that doesn’t work, can’t you just have a meal together and discuss it at the dinner table?
The hotel where you try on the clothes has room for rent.
"Ah, right, right, let's get down to business first. We can talk in my studio later."
Director Kong got too excited while talking.
Let’s chat.
Then, for the next round of fittings, we simply borrowed Xingyao’s practice room to shoot.
As one of the producers, Sister Luan realized that this group of artists was not very reliable. They could be distracted and busy with other things at any time, and they might not have much sense of time.
It’s better to save as much as possible.
"Hey, Xiaoyu, why do they all call you the boss lady? Are you and Jiang Fanyu serious?"
Teacher Danyang had a look of surprise on his face.
Ye Mengyu was confused by the question, "But, teacher, didn't we talk so much about babies? He is the father of my child..."
Her relationship with Jiang Fanyu was no longer a secret to the people around them.
Director Kong had worked with Jiang Fanyu before when she was doing the variety show "Beautiful Rivers and Mountains", and Jiang Fanyu also recommended her. It's impossible that she didn't know, right?
"Ahhh...Mom, I really got it."
Teacher Danyang instantly showed the excitement of a 28-year-old girl, and she looked like a CP fan who was really sold on the couple after hearing the real couple’s personal confirmation.
"You are a CP fan."
This is an affirmative sentence.
Teacher Danyang nodded frantically.
Well……
"You have a very young mindset..."
She had seen many aunties who were into supporting couples before. They were all wealthy women with money, free time, happy lives and no worries. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the leisure to support couples.
Moreover, she must be a pampered queen, otherwise she will not be able to empathize with the sweetness of other people's love. She herself is living a tormented life, and she can only envy and hate others' happiness. The sweetness is also other people's sweetness, and there are too few people who pay for it.
"Who is not a baby now?"
Teacher Danyang is arrogant.
Haha, no wonder he can write so many emotionally rich scripts, the teacher really has a young mentality.
"Please keep this a secret for me. We don't want to make it public for the time being."
"OK OK OK, no problem, I'm the tightest-lipped one."
Oh, people who say they are tight-lipped are generally not very reliable.
"You can post in the CP super topic, just don't post the evidence."
There are so many people writing short essays, fan fiction, making up stories, and even passing off real stories as fake news in the super topic. If you can't control your desire to express yourself, you can post it in the super topic. The mix of true and false is also a foreshadowing for the official announcement.
"Hehehe, I'm a level 16 fanboy and a hardcore fanfiction writer. Don't worry, I'll definitely include it in the story and won't reveal anything."
Oh, no wonder you keep your mouth shut.
However, as a famous screenwriter, Mr. Danyang's time management is quite impressive. "Do you still have time to write fan fiction?"
"When I get tired of writing seriously, I write something non-serious to relax. As long as it's not work, I'm so happy writing. Oh, I don't mean the content is non-serious, I'm just a writer of clean content..."
If someone says that the article is not serious in front of the author, anyone would have the wrong idea.
Teacher Danyang realized it and quickly made up for it.
No matter whether the people who heard it believed it or not, she explained it anyway.
"Can Jiang Fanyu make a cameo appearance? I suddenly had an idea. We can give the heroine a male friend who is like Bai Yueguang, a role that is both a mentor and a friend. He has a small role but a high-profile character. What do you think?"
"Then the heroine will still have to rely on men? Hasn't she lost the core of the heroine?"
"No, no, no, I'm just a life mentor, a good teacher and friend. I won't help the heroine solve specific problems."
"Does that count as mental infidelity?"
"She's never been mentally unbalanced, so how could she be unbalanced?"
Um?
If you put it that way, it seems to be the case?
The more I think about it, the more cool this idea seems!
"Let me ask him if he wants to act..."
Matters concerning life and money are easy to deal with. She can usually make the decisions. Mr. Jiang has always respected her decisions, and she will also delegate power to Mr. Jiang to make decisions for her when necessary.
When it comes to work, the two of them have always kept their responsibilities clearly divided. They can discuss things when necessary, but they will never agree to or decide anything for the other.
When he got home, Ye Mengyu actually told Mr. Jiang about this.
"I can act."
Before she could emphasize that he didn't need to consider her face and it all depended on whether he liked the person, Mr. Jiang agreed very readily.
And I was so excited that I wanted to call Director Kong right then and there to sign the contract...
"No, brother, the script hasn't come out yet. Why are you so excited?"
Is it so easy to get a movie star to act in a TV series?
"What's the point of coming down to earth? From what you said, it's only two or three scenes, a few shots, a purely sentimental cameo, just to save Director Kong's face, and everyone is carrying the sedan chair. How can it be called coming down to earth?"
Oh, he calculated the account very clearly.
You can gain favors from others without losing the reputation of a movie star, and you won’t be affected at all.
Pretty good.
"Okay, then you can do whatever you want, Bai Yueguang."
Don’t you just want to be her white moonlight?
Haha, man.
"Look at this, why is it so weird?"
"No, you misunderstood. I only admire you in my heart, no ulterior motives."
"Really? Let me see..."
…
Fortunately, the baby was not at home. She was taken to the fashion show by her fourth aunt, who insisted on shooting a parent-child series. She didn't have a child of her own, so she borrowed one.
After careful research, I found out that wearing various animal masks is a public welfare activity jointly organized with animal protection organizations.
The cub’s appearance will definitely not appear on camera.
Then go.
The cub was curious and wanted to watch the fun. He was very interested in the legendary extravagant life and long legs of his supermodel sister.
Well, there are only two people left at home, no worries, just a burning fire, one of them flirts, the other responds instantly...
"Hahaha, Xiaoyu, Lao Kong told me that Brother Yu called him and took the initiative to apply for a guest appearance. The reason he gave was pillow talk..."
As soon as Teacher Danyang left the company, he came to Ye Mengyu and whispered to her to share secrets.
Well……
"I guess so."
She really put in the work.
During the preparation period for filming, it was neither busy nor not busy. To be honest, it was busy because we had to do makeup trials, script readings, and various discussion group meetings.
Although I say I'm not busy, these are just a few days of fragmented time, and the physical training that needs to be done in advance is not needed because the heroine has no martial arts scenes.
Apart from those required activities, the rest is personal time.
Of course, as a dedicated actor, it is basic training to read the script eight or ten times in advance, understand it thoroughly, memorize it, and preferably be able to perform the play without a script.
In addition to the work related to "The Mistress of the Marquis's Mansion", Sister Luan is in full charge of the film project on her own side.
The period drama project is already underway, with official announcements already made, but the lead actor hasn't been announced yet. As is Mengzhu's custom, the main cast and crew are all Mengzhu artists, with the exception of a few veteran actors who have signed on to enhance the project.
Netizens naturally thought that the protagonist was still Ye Mengyu. After all, there was already a synopsis of the story on the Internet. It was about a young lady who went to the countryside to work as an educated youth and became a stepmother.
The character of the eldest lady is exactly Ye Mengyu herself.
Not only netizens think so, but people in the industry also think so, and they all think that this is a role tailor-made for her.
Director Kong's people are all from his own company and have signed a confidentiality agreement. Apart from the news of a new drama, outsiders have no way of knowing anything else.
"They must have gotten wind of it. I heard they're all licking their boots, trying to get into Director Mou's crew as the female lead. It seems Xia Shu wants to join, using the Xia family's connections. She'll probably get in. Alas, poor Director Mou, who has a great reputation all his life, is over 60 and still has to be exploited..."
Director Mou is a great director among great directors and one of the most influential directors.
In the film industry, his status is similar to Director Kong's in the TV drama industry.
But obviously, according to the unspoken rules in the industry, the film industry is a level higher than the TV drama industry.
"You're not going to do period dramas anymore?"
Zhou Xuran had previously said that he wanted to film a period drama to compete with her, but now he wants to bring in money to make a movie?
"Either they have to overlap with other projects, or someone else should play the role. Actually, compared to Director Mou's movies, it's better to focus on this drama. I've done some research and it's a really good project. Although Director Mou is a big name, not every movie he makes is amazing..."
"That can't be helped. She always wants to outdo me, not really work on any project."
Ye Mengyu was already certain that Zhou Xuran really knew that she had accepted Director Kong's "The Mistress of the Marquis's Mansion".
The pattern.
The pattern.
Given this situation, how could she not lose?
I feel more and more relieved.
