Chapter 45 Meeting the Director
"Not losing weight again?"
Qu Zizhou saw Gu Zhijing order two braised pork ribs in one breath, and also ordered spare ribs and tenderloin. There was not a single green in the three dishes.
"Brother, I'm naturally beautiful, I don't need to lose weight." Losing weight, it's impossible to lose weight in this life.
"Hey, Zhijing, who will be participating in your variety show?"
"What's the point of telling you so early, you have to go and watch it yourself! It starts at 8 am on October 1st, remember to get up and watch it, and don't sleep in."
"Whose variety show starts at 8 am, are you sure it's a variety show and not the morning news?"
"Nonsense, of course it's a variety show. Do you know what live streaming is? There will be no editing."
Chu Mingyan complained, "Eight o'clock is too early. Everyone should sleep in on the first day of the holiday. Will anyone watch it if it's live at eight o'clock?"
Gu Zhijing gave him a look that said, "Of course someone will watch it. Let me tell you, except for me, everyone on this show has their own fans, so there will definitely be people watching it."
Qu Zizhou also immediately said, "How can we sleep in and not watch our Zhijing on the show? Not only do we have to watch it, we also have to vote for him and fight against the black fans!"
"Okay, you're very professional." Gu Zhijing gave his brother a piece of pork chop to express his gratitude.
"That's right." Qu Zizhou's sister Qu Ziyao is a star-chasing girl. When she was at home, she often asked her brother to help vote for her favorite "brother" and fight against black. Even now that she has gone abroad, she still remotely controls her brother to help vote from time to time.
After a few friends' "promotion", the whole class and even many students from other classes knew that Gu Zhijing was going to be on TV, and they all said that they would definitely watch the show. Although Gu Zhijing is not a celebrity idol, this is his first time participating in the show, and he also brought a wave of "small traffic".
Later, even Cenxi knew about it, and sent a WeChat message to ask Nian Suinan.
Nian Suinan briefly told her what happened and received a lot of cheering emoticons.
Nianshengan didn't expect that Gu Zhijing was such a boastful guy. Before the show even started, almost all the students in the school knew about it.
So, when they were having dinner together in the evening, she asked Gu Junxing, "Zhijing seems to like being on the show. If he wants to be a star in the future, do you agree?"
"After he becomes an adult, he can do whatever he wants." Gu Junxing answered without hesitation.
"I thought people like you would think that being a star is not a serious career, and you want him to inherit the company or something..." Isn't it played like this in TV dramas and novels? If the male protagonist doesn't want to be a star, he has to go home and inherit a family fortune of hundreds of millions.
"People like us? What kind of people are we?"
Nianshengan didn't say anything because she was afraid that she would say something bad the moment she opened her mouth. She always thought that Gu Junxing's education method was quite backward and feudal. It was a different era and he still used the "silent fatherly love" approach. He always criticized Gu Zhijing more than he encouraged and praised him.
Gu Junxing didn't need Niansuan to answer, but continued: "He is a person with an independent personality and can decide what he wants to do. As for the company, there is a profession called professional manager in this world. According to Gu Zhijing's current performance, other people must be better at managing companies than him."
Gu Zhijing didn't know about this conversation at home, but now he really didn't want to be a star. He was excited to be on the show purely because he thought it was fresh and fun.
Qiao Peipei had already made an appointment with Nian Sui'an, and would take her and Zhijing to meet Director Wu on Saturday.
Meeting a director was a new experience for Nian Sui'an, so she curled her hair and put on light makeup.
Gu Zhijing also fixed her hair and borrowed some skin care products from Nian Sui'an.
Before leaving, Gu Zhijing went over to ask his father: "Do you want to join us? The three of us will rock the place!"
Of course Gu Junxing refused without a second thought, but since he didn't want to hit someone who smiles at him, looking at his son's excitement, Gu Junxing didn't want to pour cold water on him. He said lovingly, "Have fun."
Director Wu started out as a variety show director. When he was making variety shows, traffic was his creed, and this unedited live broadcast was a new way of playing that he proposed.
He had not originally had any hope for the people Qiao Peipei had found. In his plan, amateur guests were just background boards. Especially in a program broadcast live from this perspective, who would go to see amateurs? So it didn't matter who was found. He agreed to meet them today to give face to the Qiao family.
"Director Wu, these are the people I told you about, Miss Nian Siuan and classmate Gu Zhijing. What do you think? I didn't lie to you. Siu Siuan, Zhijing, this is Director Wu."
The place they had an appointment to meet today was a teahouse. Qiao Peipei introduced them directly as soon as they entered the door.
As soon as Nian Siuan entered the door, he observed Director Wu. He had a middle-parted hairstyle and a small vest... Well, a very stereotypical director.
Director Wu was also dazzled when he saw the two people who came in with Qiao Peipei.
The girl looked to be in her early twenties, not too tall, but with a well-proportioned body and beautiful looks, especially her eyes, which were bright and lively. Qiao Peipei was right. Even in the entertainment industry, such looks could be considered a beauty.
The boy looked like a student, still very young. But he was tall and handsome. If he made his debut, he would be a real fresh meat.
Director Wu's smile couldn't help but widen. "Excuse me, what is your relationship?"
Qiao Peipei deliberately didn't tell Director Wu their true identities at first, just to give him a little shock, just like when she first learned about their relationship, she was still shocked when she went home at night.
"Sister and brother?" Judging from the age difference, the possibility of being a brother and sister is the greatest, but judging from their looks, they don't look like real siblings.
Qiao Peipei shook her fingers proudly, "No. If it was so simple, why would I let you guess."
Gu Zhijing thought this kind of guessing game was really childish. Judging from the appearance of him and Nianshan'an, it would be a problem to guess that they were mother and son right away. So he revealed the answer directly, "Director Wu, we are stepmother and stepson, she is my stepmother."
"That's called stepson, not stepson!" Nian Sui'an was speechless.
"Ah?"
See, Gu Zhijing knew that everyone would have this expression, all because of his father, an old cow eating young grass. Before he finished complaining, he heard Director Wu excitedly say: "That's simply too good!"
"??? What's good about it? I don't quite understand." Nian Sui'an really didn't understand the way this artist thinks, what's so good about it?
