After the summer vacation, Zhou Jiayan officially became a primary school student.

As a little adult who always loves to pretend to be mature, Zhou Jiayan behaved even more maturely after becoming a primary school student.

For example, when Shen Qingqing asked him if he wanted to go to the children's meal together to get the toys that were only for children, he always said calmly, "Yanyan is an adult now, and doesn't need the toys for the children's meal."

Shen Qingqing curled her lips, feeling helpless about this child pretending to be an adult.

But after a few minutes, the child who had looked uninterested before sighed again and said helplessly, "Since mom wants to go, Yanyan will go with you."

Shen Qingqing: ...

After this happened a few times, Shen Qingqing finally saw the true face of this child who was pretending to be a mature adult.

She laughed and said to the child, "Since Yanyan is already an adult, he should not need to play with toys in the future. There are still many poor children in remote areas who have never had toys. In this case, I will pack up your toys and give them to children in poor areas. And you are an adult now, so you naturally won't watch cartoons anymore, so let's cancel the Ultraman time every night from now on."

After hearing what Shen Qingqing said, the child who had been pretending to be an adult couldn't hold it anymore.

Zhou Jiayan's face fell as he said anxiously, "Mom, you can't do this to Yanyan. Yanyan wants toys and cartoons."

Seeing the child finally showing his panicked expression, Shen Qingqing was finally satisfied. She stretched out her hand and pinched his fat face, "I let you act like an adult all day long. A little brat is a little brat. You are only six years old. How old do you think you are?"

Zhou Jiayan rubbed his face that was pinched by Shen Qingqing and laughed, "I just think I should make some different changes after entering elementary school."

For Zhou Jiayan, going to school is not much different from kindergarten, because he is still in an elite private elementary school and there are not many students in the class.

Of course, the most important thing is that studying in primary school is still not difficult for him. He is still the first in the class and a good student in the eyes of all teachers. They also chose him to continue to be the class monitor.

And because of his outstanding appearance and personality, he is still liked by all the children in the class and can be said to be doing very well.

For him, the only trouble in elementary school was that he was too popular. Little girls brought him cookies and cakes every day, and little boys followed him around every day, wanting to be the "little brother" of him as the class monitor.

In this regard, Zhou Jiayan just felt that these kids were very boring. He did not want to be their "big brother". He just wanted to have a quiet learning environment.

Of course, Zhou Jiayan's life was not completely comfortable. The biggest discomfort was that he suddenly found out that Shen Qingqing was about to leave him for four months because his mother had to go out to work.

Intellectually he knew that as a sensible child he should support his mother's work, but emotionally he found it difficult to accept.

Although he and Shen Qingqing had only been together for a short four or five months, they were inseparable during this period, and he was no longer used to not seeing Shen Qingqing when he returned home at night.

Zhou Jiayan couldn't help feeling depressed when he thought about not seeing Shen Qingqing for nearly four months.

Zhou Yexuan comforted the child, "Yanyan, it's okay. Dad will be with you every night during this period."

Zhou Jiayan looked at his father and whispered in his heart that he wanted his mother's company more than his father's.

If he had to choose, he would rather his father go out to work and his mother stay at home with him.

Of course, this was just his thought. If he really said it out loud, not only would his father be sad, but his mother would also be embarrassed.

Shen Qingqing naturally couldn't bear to leave her child, but she had been resting for such a long time, and it was time to work again, otherwise her agent would have collapsed.

Moreover, the system also separated from her after Zhou Jiayan's birthday, and she became a completely free person.

However, after becoming a free person and without the system forcing her to make progress, she began to miss the feeling of acting.

So she decided to become an actor again, but in this life she wanted to act in the plays she liked.

However, before leaving, she still wanted to comfort the child, so on the night before leaving, Shen Qingqing took the initiative to tell the child a bedtime story.

Finally, she kissed the child's forehead and said, "Yanyan, although four months seems like a long time, it's actually just one semester for you. When you finish your final exams, mom will be back. By then, you will also have winter vacation, and we can go out and play together. How about we go skiing in the Alps?"

When Zhou Jiayan heard the word "skiing", his eyes lit up instantly. He is a child who loves sports very much and likes all challenging sports.

He nodded excitedly and said, "Okay, okay, Mom, let's go skiing together then."

After that, the mother and son discussed what to do next, and Shen Qingqing decided to turn off the lights and go back to her room to rest.

Before she left, the child held her hand and said solemnly, "Mom, don't worry about going to work. Yanyan can understand. Just like Yanyan needs to study now, adults also need to work. Yanyan will definitely get the first place in the exam at the end of the semester and wait for you to come back."

Hearing Zhou Jiayan's words, Shen Qingqing was moved. What could make one happier than the support of family?

She would hold the child's hand and say solemnly, "Don't worry, Yanyan, mom will work hard and make you the baby that everyone envies."

Zhou Jiayan smiled with his eyebrows curved and rubbed Shen Qingqing's neck again.

In fact, he feels that he is now the baby that everyone envies.

Since it was Shen Qingqing's last night at home, at Zhou Jiayan's request, the three of them naturally had to sleep together.

After telling the story and comforting Zhou Jiayan, it was time to go to bed, so Shen Qingqing planned to turn off the lights and accompany the child to sleep.

At this time, Zhou Yexuan also walked out of the bathroom in pajamas. Thinking of the last time Zhou Yexuan was shirtless, Shen Qingqing couldn't help but look towards Zhou Yexuan, and then met Zhou Yexuan's dark eyes head-on.

The man's gaze was deep, and there seemed to be stars in his eyes.

The gaze was so captivating that Shen Qingqing quickly looked away. She then lay on her side beside the child, hugged the half-asleep child, closed her eyes, and pretended to have fallen asleep with the child.

Zhou Yexuan looked at Shen Qingqing and knew very well that she was avoiding him.

Ever since he knew what was in her mind, Zhou Yexuan began his pursuit secretly. The reason why he did not pursue her openly was naturally because he clearly noticed Shen Qingqing's deliberate avoidance.

It seemed that Shen Qingqing only intended to maintain a simple cooperative relationship with him in raising children, and had no intention of having a romantic relationship.

Otherwise, with Shen Qingqing's intelligence, how could she not notice it? She just avoided it subconsciously.

Zhou Yexuan sighed. He always prided himself on being smart, but now he didn't know what to do with Shen Qingqing.

If he moved too much, he was afraid that he would scare her away. What if Shen Qingqing didn't even want the child?

But if the stalemate continued like this, Zhou Yexuan was afraid that he would have to wait for several years or even decades.

Look, haven't several months passed quickly while he was waiting?

He looked at Shen Qingqing's sleeping face and stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her cheek. However, when he was about to touch Shen Qingqing's skin, his fingers turned and touched Zhou Jiayan's little face.

Forget it, give her some more time and let her finish filming this movie first.

And after that, he would no longer let Shen Qingqing act like an ostrich and avoid him.

At the moment when Zhou Yexuan was lying quietly on the other side, Shen Qingqing opened her eyes in the darkness.

She naturally felt the man's hand reaching out and then turning away, and she couldn't help herself but restrained herself in the end.

She seemed to know why she always felt that Zhou Yexuan was weird during this period of time.

Is Zhou Yexuan in love with her?

Shen Qingqing felt her whole body stiffen for a moment and she didn't know how to face Zhou Yexuan.

For her now, she no longer needs to rely on the Zhou family for living.

But the reason why she never filed for divorce with Zhou Yexuan was, of course, because she couldn't bear to leave her child, Zhou Jiayan.

Before this, she had thought that Zhou Yexuan had the same attitude as herself in raising a child together, so that she could get along with men more naturally. However, she did not expect that Zhou Yexuan actually had other feelings for her...

For a moment, Shen Qingqing's quick brain froze. She didn't know what attitude to take towards Zhou Yexuan. The only thing she was thankful for at the moment was that she could leave Zhou's house and fly to the film and television city early tomorrow morning.

Never mind. She won’t be back for four months anyway. I’ll think about it then.

After the news that Shen Qingqing was about to join the crew to film a fantasy drama came out, a wave of discussion was once again sparked online.

Film and TV Frontline: A certain lady who has recently become popular through participating in variety shows is about to join the cast of a fairy tale drama. This time, her company will still form its own team and invest in it. I just don't know whether she will bring surprises or shocks to everyone this time? I'm really worried that the reputation she has finally earned through variety shows will be lost again.

The marketing account's revelations were almost an exposed identification of Shen Qingqing, and netizens quickly identified the person as the one responsible.

[I have to say that my sister Shen is indeed very wealthy, a real resource-rich person in the domestic entertainment industry, and no one else can compare to her.]

[Compared to a group of deadbeat sons bragging about being rich second generation, I really can't help laughing. ]

[I generally look down on resource-rich people, but Sister Shen has always made her own cakes and never snatched resources from others, so it doesn’t seem that hard to accept. ]

[Hahaha, I think so too. I have always wanted to say that I really envy Sister Shen's life. She can do whatever she wants. There are not so many rules for marrying into a wealthy family. Instead, her husband spends all kinds of money to let her venture into the entertainment industry.]

[Have you heard this news? Our Sister Shen is not only rich because of marriage, she is also very rich, okay? I heard that she is actually the niece of the current head of the overseas Lin Group, and she also has a lot of Lin Group shares, which is a lot of money. ]

[I say that some people's values ​​are really broken, right? Is this unconditional flattery of rich people? Think about Shen Qingqing's previous acting skills. Is she worthy of acting, worthy of playing the leading role? ]

[That's right, I have no ill will towards this lady, and I even like her child very much, but can't a lady like her just make some easy money by filming some variety shows? Why does she want to act in a drama and ruin the market and irritate everyone? ]

[SRDS, everyone can vote with their hands and eyes, it's not necessary, it's not necessary. She spent her own money to film and have fun, and the loss is her own.]

[The filming hasn't even started yet, and it's unnecessary to lend money to Sister Shen because she can't act.]

[Is this called a loan? Haven't you seen the previous drama? With that acting, do you still believe she can rise to fame in a short time? ]

[I feel bad for which traffic will be affected this time. It's too tragic. ]

[xxx fans are here, my brother is really miserable, it was originally Shen Qingqing's fault, which caused my brother to make a bad movie and be ridiculed. ]

[I laughed at the person above. Your brother took the film remuneration himself. I heard that your brother got 80 million for the last film. Wasn’t that his own choice?]

【People who earn 2,000 yuan a month will feel less sorry for those who earn 2.08 million yuan a day. 】

…

Shen Qingqing could predict the bad news about her online without even looking at it, but she was not in a hurry. After all, the harder she was criticized now, the harder she would be slapped in the face when the day came.

Shen Qingqing has been filming for so many years that she believes she understands the audience's taste well enough. Although whether a drama can become a hit nowadays depends on the right time, place and people, the audience's eyes are not blind. As long as the quality of their dramas is above standard, it should not be difficult for the dramas to become popular.

Of course, if she is extremely unlucky, it is not impossible for her to fail. If she fails, she can find an excuse to completely quit the circle.

When she was filming in her previous life, she was just an actor, so she had no control over the final presentation of the TV series and movies. In a sense, actors are just tools of the director or screenwriter.

Of course, both the director and the screenwriter ultimately listened to the producer and investor, so this time Shen Qingqing not only became his own investor, but also the producer, and he assembled the entire team by himself.

She did not choose already famous directors or screenwriters, but looked for new directors and screenwriters with potential. When choosing IPs to shoot, she did not just look at the data, but chose more innovative scripts.

In terms of actors, this time she really did not extend her "poisonous hand" to the so-called traffic stars. After all, it is well known that most of the traffic stars do not have good acting skills, but their pay is high.

Instead of giving the money to big names, Shen Qingqing thought it would be better to use the money for special effects and for costumes and props.

After all, the biggest function of traffic is initial traffic diversion, but Shen Qingqing felt that the group of netizens would go and check it out first even if it was just to scold her.

As long as they go and see it, Shen Qingqing is confident that she will make them really happy.

Of course, what’s more important is that if someone with a bigger star comes, it will be difficult for her to compete with him.

This time, Shen Qingqing chose a script with one woman and four men. In addition to satisfying her Mary Sue taste, it was also based on her judgment of the audience's taste.

Which girl who watches idol dramas doesn’t like to see a bunch of handsome guys loving her?

So Shen Qingqing and Guo Jie went to film and television academies several times, and successfully selected four professional male actors who were handsome and had good looks in ancient costumes.

Since they are all newcomers, they naturally cannot be picky about their roles and characters, which is actually conducive to the creation of the script.

After several months of preparation, the filming has finally started.

When netizens saw the start-up photos and found that Shen Qingqing was the only familiar face at the scene, they were a little surprised.

[Ah? Is our Sister Shen bankrupt? A completely new team with an unknown IP? ]

[Oh my god, I feel so sad. Sister Shen used to play the biggest IPs and find the most popular traffic stars to carry the sedan chair.]

[What's the most popular traffic star? Sister Shen has appeared in a famous director's movie before, with a bunch of movie stars as supporting actors. ]

[Could it be that Sister Shen lost too much money before so the Zhou family is unwilling to invest? Now they can only shoot this kind of third-rate drama? ]

[What are you doing? Am I the only one who thinks Shen Qingqing's acting skills are only good enough for this kind of role? ]

[But Sister Shen has a really good aesthetic sense. I think these four guys are all very handsome, and their looks are not inferior to the top stars. ]

[Hahaha, yes, I think the main characters are all very good-looking. I think I will watch it just for their faces.]

…

Amidst the heated discussions (and pessimism) of the public, the TV series "Chongming" officially started filming.

After starting the official shooting, the entire crew was very low-key and entered a low-key shooting stage.

The main thing is that they have to be low-key. After all, except Shen Qingqing, the rest are almost all newcomers.

As for Shen Qingqing, she is famous but has no die-hard fans. Naturally, no one would spend money to hire a photographer to buy Reuters. Therefore, the photographers scattered throughout the film and television city were too lazy to shoot this drama which they thought was bound to fail.

So when the TV series was officially launched the following year and became a huge hit, and successfully made four male actors famous, a bunch of photographers regretted their decision and missed out on a sea view apartment.

Of course, no one can predict now, even Shen Qingqing cannot predict whether the audience will buy into it after it is released, or to what extent they will buy into it.

Compared to many crews with less attention who would actively release Reuters to attract attention, Shen Qingqing was too lazy to do so. In her opinion, instead of spending money to hype up the popularity in the early stage, it would be better to concentrate on publicity when the film is about to be released. However, related behind-the-scenes footage can still be filmed and prepared in advance.

Neither the director, screenwriter, nor the actors in the same crew had much hope for Shen Qingqing's acting skills.

However, as Shen Qingqing was the one who paid the money, they couldn't say anything. They were even grateful to Shen Qingqing in their hearts for giving them the opportunity to work. Even if their efforts were wasted in the end because of Shen Qingqing's acting skills, they could only accept it.

After all, if it weren't for Shen Qingqing, they might not even have the chance to work.

However, after the first scene was filmed, Shen Qingqing's performance shocked everyone.

Isn't this acting too good?! If this is the so-called AI acting, then there is no good acting in the domestic entertainment industry.

It was a crying scene, Shen Qingqing was crying her eyes out, even though the surrounding environment was very noisy with all kinds of machinery and equipment, everyone was still moved by Shen Qingqing's crying scene and infected by her emotions.

Moreover, Shen Qingqing didn't look ugly at all when she cried. Her facial features didn't look messy at all. When people saw her crying, they just thought what a beautiful woman she was crying, and they even wanted to give their lives to her.

In an instant, everyone felt that the description in the novel that everyone loves the heroine was convincing. Who wouldn't love such a vivid and beautiful woman?

They soon recalled Shen Qingqing's performance in previous dramas. Some of them only knew that Shen Qingqing was mocked for her poor acting skills, but some of them had actually watched Shen Qingqing's previous dramas and knew Shen Qingqing's previous acting level.

What on earth happened that allowed Shen Qingqing to make such great progress in such a short period of time?

If ordinary staff only have the most superficial and preliminary feelings about whether an actor's acting is good or bad, then Shen Qingqing's performance brought a huge shock to the actors acting opposite her.

Wei Guanghe is the male lead of this play. He is handsome and ranks very high in his class. However, because he is a bit inflexible and has an artistic arrogance, when many of his classmates have starred in several plays and even became famous, he has only played small roles in a few dramas.

This time he was chosen by Shen Qingqing to play the leading actor. On the one hand, he felt that Shen Qingqing was very discerning and was his mentor, but on the other hand, he felt sorry that Shen Qingqing's acting skills were so poor. He felt that this time the drama would probably become another bad drama.

Wei Guanghe has always been praised by his teachers as a rare talented student in recent years, so he couldn't understand why Shen Qingqing could act like this.

However, after this scene, he fell into despair again. It was obvious that he had no talent for acting, otherwise why could Shen Qingqing improve her acting skills to such an extent in such a short time, while he could not keep up with Shen Qingqing's acting at all!

Yes, he successfully froze in front of Shen Qingqing's crying. It was not until the director shouted cut that he realized that he had just forgotten to do the actions and say the lines.

He quickly apologized. He thought he would be severely scolded by the director, but he didn't expect the director to be silent for a long time. Then he said, "Forget it. No one was prepared for the first time. It's normal to be stunned. It won't be the same after that. Everyone, cheer up and don't let our Sister Shen down, no matter the money or the acting skills."

After the director said this, all the staff on the set reacted and then became excited.

They knew they were about to make a hit.

Wei Guanghe is a very arrogant person, but this is when facing those who don’t understand or love drama.

After discovering that Shen Qingqing's acting skills were so amazing, he changed his behavior and began to ask Shen Qingqing for advice on acting from time to time.

Shen Qingqing looked at Wei Guanghe and the other four male actors as juniors.

The reason why she chose these four was of course because she was optimistic about them, and she also planned to let her agent sign them after the filming was completed.

Seeing that Wei Guanghe loved acting so much and took the initiative to ask her for advice, Shen Qingqing was always willing to give advice.

After a while, the two of them became quite familiar with each other. They even often gathered together to discuss how to perform the next scene, how to design the action, and whether certain plots in the script were reasonable during lunch breaks...

After discovering Wei Guanghe's actions, the other male actors couldn't help but complain in their hearts that he was so scheming. They had thought Wei Guanghe was very noble before, but it turned out that they were the idiots.

So they started to complain and imitate, and vied with each other to ask Shen Qingqing for advice on acting.

Regardless of whether it was sincere or not, all the actors in the crew improved their acting skills at once, and they all studied the script diligently to improve their acting skills.

And Shen Qingqing also enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention in the script.

Compared to Shen Qingqing, she was a little confused, but this was a good thing for both her and the crew, so she naturally accepted it with pleasure.
