There was a commotion coming from outside the hall, and a tall man with a hood walked into the hall surrounded by a group of staff.
Wei Xicheng suppressed the smile in his eyes and came.
Grant also has a huge number of fans on the Internet. After the news that he was coming to Jingnian today was released, some local fans spontaneously organized to welcome him.
In fact, he had an impression of all the artists Jingnian had signed, and he didn't think he would be able to pick a model that would satisfy him, but due to the cooperative relationship, he had to make this trip.
The moment he stepped into the hall, Grant's eyes lit up. He quickly pulled down his hood and walked towards the sofa for guests, leaving a group of staff standing there in confusion.
"Hello, I'm Grant." Grant stretched out his big hand and greeted the boy on the sofa. He spoke Chinese very fluently. "Excuse me, are you a signed artist of Jingnian?"
The young man on the sofa looked over when he heard the voice, his misty eyes filled with confusion and uneasiness. He stood up and took two steps back, ignoring Grant's hand, but bit his lip and shook his head.
The white teeth bit on the lips. Maybe the owner used a little force, and the light pink lips quickly turned deep red, adding a touch of charm to the boy's slightly indifferent expression.
"Oh my God!" Grant didn't care about the boy's rudeness at all, and completely ignored the boy's shaking head. Only God knew that he wanted to pick up the camera and take countless close-ups right now. This child is the darling of the camera, absolutely.
His exclamation seemed to disturb the boy, and he lowered his head silently. His overly long bangs hung down from both sides, overlapping the two small brushes above his eyes. The corners of his mouth also faded, leaving only the bright red from biting his teeth.
A decadent beautiful boy who fell into hell!
Grant shouted in his heart that every move of the boy was full of contradictory yet harmonious temperament. Grant believed that in this world only his camera could capture the boy's perfect temperament. This kind of expressiveness was simply genius!
"Did I scare you? Sorry." Grant put on what he thought was a very kind smile, but he didn't realize that with his full beard, he looked like a big bear to the boy opposite him. "I'm just too excited. What's your name?"
"Qi Chen." Wei Xicheng stammered like a mosquito.
In the past, this timid performance might have angered Grant, who advocated the expressiveness and tension of still photos, but now Grant has completely ignored this small flaw.
The boy himself is the most beautiful interpretation, his every move is full of charm, he does not need too much posing, he is more beautiful than Aphrodite.
Grant seemed very anxious after learning the boy's name. He thought it would be best to start filming today. He knew that he hadn't met such a talented partner for many years.
"I'll come find you later, please wait here for a moment." After seeing the young man nod, Grant hurried towards the elevator. He wanted to quickly finalize the filming plan with Jingnian's people.
Wei Xicheng sat down quietly again only after everyone around him had left. He would not leave because his meal money tonight or in the future still depended on this great photographer.
Grant, who rushed to the office of the person in charge of the filming project, was dumbfounded.
"Are you sure? Are you kidding me?" Grant stared at the manager in front of him, grabbed the list of model candidates, and flipped through it from beginning to end. "Why is it not here?"
The manager looked at the big bear in front of him and wanted to cry, "There really is no artist named Qi Chen this time."
"Shit!" Grant threw the roster aside. "Is this your attitude towards cooperation, Jingnian? You leave the fine porcelain aside and only use these crappy things to deal with me?"
Grant was very angry. He looked at the manager with a smirk on his face, slammed the door and left, going straight to the office of the project manager. All the employees he met along the way made way for him, for fear of angering the great photographer.
After listening to his furious exposition of how irresponsible their company was, the general manager held his chin and thought for a while, and finally asked Grant to take him to see the "elf".
Hearing that he was going to meet the young man, Grant's mood calmed down a little. "My dear, I have to tell you that if I can't add the name Qi Chen this time, I may have to forcibly break the contract. I can't tolerate imperfection. If I didn't see him today, I might have continued to choose. Now God has let me see my goddess of beauty, and I won't give up."
The general manager wiped the black line on his forehead and said, "Mr. Grant, this is our mistake. Let's go meet Mr. Qi Chen first."
When the two men arrived at the hall, Wei Xicheng was still looking at the magazine in his hand. Grant noticed that what he was holding was the previous issue of "People" magazine.
"Dear Qi, we are so destined to meet." Grant took two quick steps and sat down next to the boy. "I took the photo for this magazine. What do you think?"
Not very good.
Wei Xicheng complained in his heart that this uncle was too familiar. What was the meaning of fate? All the magazines placed here were "People". What else could he read if not this?
Wei Xicheng gently put the magazine aside, nodded slightly at Grant, said nothing, and kept his eyes on his fingers.
"Look how shy he is." Grant turned to the person in charge and said, "He's like a cute little angel who accidentally fell into this world."
The person in charge twitched his lips and said, "That's not what you said when the last kid did this."
The work that needs to be done still needs to be done. The general manager is well aware of all the big and small artists under the company. He has never seen the file of anyone with the surname Qi in the company, and the company has not signed any new artists recently.
He originally thought that it might be a male artist who was missed, but when he saw the face of the child in front of him, he realized that the company definitely did not have this person.
In other words, this boy who appeared out of nowhere was not an artist from their company. Although the general manager had already started to speculate in his mind that this was a "spy" sent by some company to poach employees, he still smiled and asked the child sitting on the sofa.
"Xiao Qi, huh? What are you doing here?"
He didn't know how this kid got in, or who brought him in, so he had to find out clearly to avoid any problems.
"What can he do? Of course he is here to meet me! This is fate!" Grant was most impatient with these lengthy matters. He almost wanted to jump up and point at the general manager's nose and start scolding him.
"What's wrong?" A clear voice came, and the hall became quiet in an instant.
"Shen!" Grant really jumped up this time, and rushed forward to give the man a bear hug, but was blocked by two staff members. This time it was his turn to smile awkwardly, "You are still so cold-hearted. I finally see you again. Do you want to consider the cooperation I proposed?"
Shen Zhe nudged Grant's dishonest hands and feet from a distance, "When you can change this, I'll consider it."
After saying that, he turned his gaze to the boy who had been very quiet on the sofa.
Wei Xicheng kept his head down the whole time, but based on the voice, he conjured up an image of a handsome and elegant man in his mind.
Sinking ruts.
The youngest actor, he broke into the entertainment industry at the age of seventeen, joined Hollywood at the age of twenty, won the actor award at the age of twenty-two, and retired behind the scenes after winning the Lifetime Achievement Award at the age of twenty-seven. At the age of twenty-eight, that is, this year, Jingnian Entertainment and Film and Television Company successfully entered the forefront of the entertainment and film and television industry, and the boss is none other than this actor Shen.
He has been in the industry for ten years and has a very good reputation without a single scandal or black spot. He has successfully moved behind the scenes and his company has developed at an unstoppable pace. Even the haters dare not criticize him.
Wei Xicheng smacked his lips. Every world would encounter a bug-like existence, who was neither the son of destiny nor the chosen one, but was still loved by the rules of the world.
"Who is this?" Shen Zhe looked at the boy's hair whorls and spoke. The boy never raised his head to look at him.
The general manager was extremely anxious. It was just a minor mistake at work, but his boss caught it. He had to fix it today! Otherwise, he would not get his year-end bonus this year!
“Boss Shen, this is the cover model designated by Grant today.” The general manager gritted his teeth, “But this is not an artist from our company.”
Grant blew his beard, stretched out his hand and pulled the boy next to him, and no longer had the previous enthusiasm towards Chen Zhe, "Either you sign him, or I break the contract. I can't give up on him."
Shen Zhe raised his eyebrows slightly, why did this sound so strange.
Wei Xicheng moved his wrist nervously, but he couldn't help but secretly praise the uncle in his heart, saying that the uncle was really awesome.
Seeing the boy's little action, Shen Zhe took two steps forward and sat down in front of the two of them, and stretched out his hand to signal them to sit down as well.
Grant let go of the boy's wrist. Shen Zhe, who was sitting opposite him, clearly saw a layer of red on the boy's wrist, but the boy said nothing and kept rubbing his wrist, trying his best to reduce his presence.
The general manager wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and finally figured out what his boss meant. He trotted away and hurried to check the background of this young man.
You know, although Emperor Shen is known for his gentle and easy-going personality, he is also ruthless and iron-blooded when dealing with his subordinates, otherwise Jason wouldn't have the position he has today.
Shen Zhe casually stretched out his long legs, leaning gently on the back of the sofa, looking at the two people sitting in front of him, and he focused more on this strange boy.
It is undeniable that this young man has unique advantages and is born for the stage and screen.
"I believe in your vision, and I don't want to end our good cooperative relationship. But..." He nodded at Grant, leaned forward, put his arms on his thighs, and crossed his hands to support his mouth, "We still need to ask this person's opinion."
Upon hearing this, Grant's eyes followed Chen Zhe and looked at Wei Xicheng.
"Qi?"
The boy, who had been silent the whole time, raised his head and looked at Shen Zhe only after he heard Grant calling his name.
"Do you really want to sign me?" The boy's voice was clear and youthful, but if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of uncertainty and doubt in it.
“Well, as long as you agree.” Shen Zhe folded his two long legs together and changed his posture.
"I..." Wei Xicheng pinched the corner of his clothes and said in a whisper, "My father asked me to wait here. He will come over soon."
Grant showed his white teeth and put his arm around the boy's shoulders in a friendly manner. "Your father will definitely agree. How old are you?"
The boy twisted his body but failed to break free from Grant's arms. His eyes were a little red, but he still answered the question in a low voice.
"Sixteen."
"Grant." Shen Zhe looked at his hand clasped on the boy's shoulder and said in a deep voice, "If you can't change this habit, I don't think there is any possibility for us to cooperate again."
Grant quickly pulled his hand back, looked at Shen Zhe and said loudly, "This is a way to show intimacy! Shen!"
"Perhaps you should respect whether the other person needs your intimate behavior." Shen Zhe's words were merciless.
"How could I not..." Grant's voice died down when he turned his head and saw the boy's slightly red eyes. He hurriedly pulled out two or three tissues, "What's wrong with you? Don't cry. If you don't like it, just say it directly."
While Grant was coaxing the teenager, Shen Zhe took the investigation report sent by the general manager from the assistant, flipped through a few pages and frowned.
