Chapter 34 Chapter 34 "Their boss and I don't get along. ...
"Do you know Yunyi? It's a super film and television investment company. They have a share of all the good resources. The hit drama 'Gift Willow Smoke Returns' was also invested by Yunyi." He Shu looked longingly. "Yunyi used to only do investment, but recently they've suddenly started to think about cultivating their own people. If I can join Yunyi, I won't have to worry about resources in the future."
He Shu was the one among them who knew the ecology of the circle best. Zhou Yu'an was still a college student and had no more sources of information than her. She sat aside and listened to her attentively.
"And do you know who the boss behind Yunyi is?" He Shu kept it a secret. "The CEO of Cheng Group, Cheng Shuze."
Jiang Yiyu was using a spoon to scoop the mango flesh into her Mango Jasmine Tea, and she almost choked on her breath.
Tang Ya scooped the duck blood with a colander in one hand, then took her hand out to pat Jiang Yiyu on the back.
"Calm down, calm down."
The people opposite hurriedly grabbed tissues and handed them to Jiang Yiyu.
"Cheng...?" Jiang Yiyu's tone was full of doubts. The Cheng Group's previous business scope never included the entertainment industry.
"That's right," Tang Ya whispered in her ear. "Didn't I tell you last time? Cheng Shuze invested in Du Yisang's play, and he founded Yunyi Film and Television."
When did Tang Ya last tell her this? She had no recollection of it at all. She hadn't paid much attention when she was furious last time. It seemed that she vaguely mentioned that Cheng Shuze was investing in a project.
Wu Jun and the others in the studio all knew that Director Jiang was the daughter of the Jiang Group, who had previously divorced from a business marriage with Young Master Cheng. While the official divorce was settled with respect, privately, things were certainly more complicated than reported; otherwise, Director Jiang wouldn't have chosen to pursue careers abroad for two years before returning. Suddenly, upon hearing the topic of their boss's ex-husband, several glanced at Jiang Yiyun and silently lowered their heads, some picking up food, others sipping soup, trying to minimize their presence.
He Shu thought they were interested in Mr. Cheng, the boss behind Yunyihe. It was rare to meet a friend with such a good temper, so she was happy to tell him more about the news she had heard. In their line of work, connections and information were more important than anything else.
"Cheng Shuze, Mr. Cheng, is one of the top wealthy tycoons in Linjiang City. He's a walking golden finger. I heard he got divorced several years ago and is still single. There are countless people in the circle who want to get close to him." He Shu is like a gossip distribution center. She knows all the gossip, although it's not true. According to her, a few years ago, a small star did not know how to get close to Mr. Cheng in a private club, but was thrown out in public by the bodyguards. He was softly banned from the circle the next day. But even so, there are still many people who are eager to try for Mr. Cheng and try their best to find out what Mr. Cheng likes.
"But Mr. Cheng is just a legend. He hasn't attended any events in the entertainment industry for a long time." He Shu said with a hint of regret. "But this time, Yunyi is planning to choose its own people. I'm sure many people are desperate to join Yunyi."
He Shu turned to Zhou Yu'an and said, "You should keep an eye out and ask around. Your qualifications are like a gift from heaven for a golden rice bowl. The possibility of you getting into Yunyi is very high."
Zhou Yu'an shook his head. "The competition is too fierce. There are so many people with good conditions and backgrounds in this industry. If you interview evenly, you may not stand out."
Yunyi has the support of Cheng Group, so who wouldn't be jealous? Even the popular first-tier traffic stars are eyeing Yunyi and ready to make a move, not to mention these newcomers who have not yet made a name for themselves.
He Shu empathized with him and picked up the boiled water and clinked glasses with him.
"Director Jiang, Director Jiang."
"Hmm?" Jiang Yiyun raised her head and saw He Shu looking at her with those sparkling eyes again. She couldn't help but twitch her lips, "What's wrong?"
"Why don't you give it a try? You can continue to be a director or switch to acting. I think you can definitely succeed if you go."
He Shu was very serious, and her vision was always accurate. Director Jiang, though young, possessed a unique sense of composure, and an aura she hadn't quite grasped yet. Overall, he didn't seem like an average person.
Of course, if he can form a team by himself and pull out an entire project group, the financial support behind him must not be from an ordinary person.
She said that if Yunyi really selected people, she intuitively felt that Director Jiang would definitely be able to break through the siege and get a spot.
This time it was Tang Ya's turn to be scalded by the slippery duck blood and she could only gasp.
She coughed and wanted to laugh, but couldn't, and the expression on her face was really distorted.
If Jiang Yiyu went to Cheng Shuze's company, she probably wouldn't be going to cooperate, but to mess things up.
Jiang Yiyun said slowly, "I can't. Their boss and I are not compatible. We are born to clash."
Jiang Yiyu is really great.
After getting off his car that night, I haven't had any intention of contacting him until today. I'm busy with my own career, but I'm very diligent in sending out audition information and casting.
However, he admitted that it was his fault for not reading the letter, and it was normal for Jiang Yiyu to be angry.
After waiting for a few days, Cheng Shuze finally couldn't hold back and sent a message to Jiang Yiyu asking for peace.
After the past two years, he and Jiang Yiyu have never met again. His strong willpower and indestructible cell, which was like an old prison cell, did not even need a bulldozer to push it since Jiang Yiyu returned to China. A slight touch would shatter it into powder in his heart, leaving no trace at all.
Isn’t it just a step? Isn’t it just about chasing someone again? Then he will take the initiative to build another ladder.
Mr. Cheng took out his cell phone and hesitated for a long time. He was not so serious even when signing a contract worth hundreds of billions of yuan. Then...
Then he found out that he was blocked again.
It was completely dark. It had been three days and the other party hadn't accepted his friend request. The red exclamation mark was so conspicuous no matter how he looked at it.
He Yue stood at the door and knocked on the door of the president's office.
"Mr. Cheng, this is the report submitted by Yun Yixin." He Yue handed a stack of paper reports that was obviously much thicker to Cheng Shuze.
Cheng Shuze looked indifferent. He skipped the half-read document in his hand and directly took Yunyi's report.
The senior management of Yunyi almost went crazy in the past half month.
As an investment company, they usually held the absolute position of client, with numerous projects, both large and small, being approached for their investment. Occasionally, they could use their power to manipulate a project, inserting a person, which was harmless. Their immediate boss, Mr. Cheng, was preoccupied with the group's business and only reviewed the annual financial statements, leaving them no time for anything else.
Suddenly they were asked to make a quarterly plan, which scared them. They submitted it to the group with trepidation, but it was rejected before even half an hour had passed.
Mr. Cheng's tone of reply was very indifferent and cold, but no one dared to take it lightly.
If you don't do your job well, you'll be fired in a matter of minutes. Mr. Cheng has always had high demands and little patience.
Now, several senior executives who usually retired all day long, along with the entire company, all frantically explored the project evaluation market again. Things like being treated to meals by others, having female celebrities as companions, and building personal connections were all put on the back burner. The most urgent thing was to keep their jobs.
After staying up all night for several days, the few hairs on my head began to become shiny and bright. I worked hard and finally remade the new plans for the next quarter and the quarter after that within half a month.
Some clever ones went to find Assistant He to get some information before handing it over to the group. After much persuasion, they finally got Assistant He to agree to take a look at it for them in advance.
Being an assistant is somewhat like being a eunuch in ancient times, in that one has to understand what the president means. He Yue thought he could still understand President Cheng's subtext.
After reading Yunyi's new report, He Yue advised them to pay more attention to small online drama projects. Some of these small projects are in the initial stage and have novel and unique themes, and they are also worth and meaningful to support.
They were all smart people. After receiving the instructions, they went back to think about it and submitted a new report to him two days later. He Yue finally saw what he guessed Mr. Cheng wanted to see.
Cheng Shuze quickly scanned the neatly arranged project titles. This one was clearly much more meticulously selected than the previous one, evaluated from a completely professional perspective, and the projects selected were truly valuable. Flipping through the pages, he spotted a familiar name in the web drama project section. He grabbed the black metal pen on the table, uncapped it with one hand, and the black ink flowed down as his fingers moved.
"Take it."
This probably counts as a uniform report that has passed, right?
He Yue also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He couldn't stand Yun Yi and his gang bombarding him with messages in the middle of the night every day and begging him for help.
After taking the report and returning to his seat, He Yue was about to pass on Mr. Cheng's reply. He opened the document and found that the content was very simple and the direction was very clear.
In the five-page project list, Mr. Cheng only circled one of them.
The name in the director column is Jiang Yiyu.
The sounds of shutters and flashes alternated, the studio was brightly lit, and the actors adjusted their angles according to instructions in front of the whiteboard.
Lin Lang was lying on the ground with his SLR camera, looking for an angle, while Jiang Yiyu was sitting behind the computer selecting films.
The beauty next to her was wearing hot pants and suspenders that showed off her personality very well. She was not afraid of the cold. Her eyes with exaggerated long eyelashes and suitable makeup did not look out of place. Instead, they lengthened her eyes and made them more lively. She took a thin wooden comb and hastily tied up her long grass-green hair, then stood with her hands on her hips and looked at him.
"Sister Xuan, is there any solution?"
"Sister, your requirements are a bit high. I've read the script. It requires so many costumes, and they all have to be high-quality, high-end brands. Otherwise, the materials will look rough on camera, and your budget can't afford it."
Tong Xuan is an old friend. She met her a few years ago when she was looking for a makeup artist for a short drama with a small investment. After getting in touch with each other and becoming friends, they often collaborated. This time, when starting a new project, Jiang Yiyu immediately contacted Tong Xuan to be the art director.
In the past two years, Tong Xuan has made a name for herself in the circle. Although she cannot get any big productions, she can join the group seamlessly and have work to do, so at least she won't starve to death.
"For the sake of our friend, I'll earn less, but I can't skimp on the hardware for clothing. I can't just have the same few sets from start to finish."
Jiang Yiyu frowned slightly, watching the photos flash by one after another on the computer.
The filming came to a temporary halt for a break, and He Shu walked towards them.
Tong Xuan is really good at makeup. According to He Shu's facial features and character characteristics, the mermaid makeup is clear and shiny. Combined with the light, the film has the shimmering feeling that Jiang Yiyu wanted.
Jiang Yiyun looked at He Shu and suddenly asked, "How tall are you?"
He Shu was stunned and immediately replied, "166."
"Sister Xuan," Jiang Yiyu turned around, "Can you alter the clothes?"
