Chapter 35: Touching Porcelain



Awakened by a deafening knock on the door, Li Zhao reached out and fumbled, finally finding the cell phone he had forgotten beside his pillow. He half-closed his eyes and looked at the phone. It was almost twelve o'clock in the morning. Who was knocking on his door?

He suddenly fell into the fear of being dominated by Yao Shasha in the crew of "The Domineering Female Boss". Carefully leaning on the door and looking out through the peephole, he saw Song Yu's face, which was distorted with anger.

After opening the door, Li Zhao stepped back and said, "Brother Song, what do you want to talk to me about? Come in and tell me."

Seeing Li Zhao's sleepy eyes, Song Yu laughed angrily: "Sleep, sleep, sleep, you are a pig, how can you sleep?"

"It's the middle of the night, why aren't you sleeping?" Li Zhao had long been accustomed to Song Yu's temper when he disagreed with her. He turned around and took an unopened bottle of water from the cabinet and handed it to Song Yu: "Drink some water and calm down."

"Can you give me the free mineral water given by the hotel?" Song Yu held the water in his hand and couldn't believe his eyes: "Li Zhao, why did you deduct it like this?"

"What's wrong with mineral water? It's healthy and quenches thirst." Li Zhao was afraid that Song Yu's loud voice would wake up the others, so he quickly closed the door and smiled at Song Yu ingratiatingly: "Brother Song, if you don't like it, leave it to me. I'll take it to the crew tomorrow."

Song Yu: “…”

After being in the industry for so long, Li Zhao is the poorest of all the actors he knows. He glared at Li Zhao, unscrewed the bottle cap, and gulped down half the bottle: "Sorry, I drank too much."

Li Zhao was silent, so what on earth was he here for?

"Li Zhao, I didn't expect you to be such a hypocritical person." Song Yu threw the remaining half bottle of water into the trash can and sneered: "On the surface, you told me that you didn't have an endorsement, but in fact, you had already negotiated with Cang Huan. Are you treating me like a fool?"

"Cang Huan?" Li Zhao was stunned. Isn't this where Tingting works?

But what does it have to do with him?

He looked down at the half-full bottle of mineral water in the trash can and felt a little distressed.

"It's already officially announced, why are you still pretending?" Song Yu sat on the single sofa: "Strawberry Entertainment is really powerful. They can help you get such a huge resource. But what's wrong with your agent? Why didn't he help you repost Cang Huan's Weibo?"

“What Weibo?” Li Zhao tore his eyes away from the trash can, turned on his phone, and found that his Weibo was a little laggy.

Endorsing the latest product of Cang Huan?

He stared with wide eyes and looked again and again, confirming that the person in the official Weibo circle was himself. He quickly logged out of Weibo, opened the address book, and called Luo Rong.

"Brother Luo, what's going on with that endorsement?" Li Zhao scratched his head. "Did I miss any important news because I was too busy filming recently?"

"I thought you would sleep until tomorrow morning before asking me." Luo Rong was particularly patient with Li Zhao. "The contract you signed with the company states that the company needs your consent to use your personal public account, so we haven't reposted your Weibo yet. But don't worry too much, the studio Weibo has reposted it as soon as possible."

"No." Li Zhao whispered, "Why would a company as big as Cang Huan choose me as its spokesperson?"

The most important thing in life is to know oneself. Even if he was dreaming, he would not be embarrassed to have such a dream. His biggest dream is to endorse products such as instant noodles and biscuits, so that during his endorsement period, the manufacturers will give him a lot of free food.

"Don't underestimate yourself. Your appearance is outstanding and it matches their new products very well." Luo Rong certainly didn't say that he didn't know what Cang Huan was crazy about, but he praised Li Zhao in various ways: "Your first endorsement is Cang Huan's Cangshi watch. When you talk about other big endorsements in the future, you will have more advantages than other artists of the same period."

He is not usually a talkative person, but he talked a lot tonight. He glanced at the employees in the studio who were still working overtime to control online public opinion and said, "If it is convenient for you later, please repost the Weibo post from Cang Huan. Also, Cang Shi, a brand under Cang Huan, just posted a Weibo post. You should also repost this one."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Luo." Li Zhao hung up the phone and turned to look at Song Yu: "So this endorsement is real."

"Li Zhao, you are awesome. You didn't even know about such a big thing." Seeing that Li Zhao really didn't know about it, Song Yu's anger subsided a little: "Are you a pig? Why don't you repost Cang Huan's Weibo?"

Li Zhao opened Weibo and reposted the two official Weibo posts.

"Li Zhao, you are a pig!" Song Yu was shocked by Li Zhao's action after reading the content of the Weibo he forwarded: "When you forwarded it, could you say a few more words?"

Li Zhao V: Looking forward to the cooperation [smile].

This smiling face has so many meanings. He usually only uses this expression when he wants to curse someone but can't bring himself to use dirty words.

"Forget it, you're just a country bumpkin anyway." Song Yu stood up and snorted, "Go to bed early. Don't think you can't sleep just because you're the spokesperson for a watch. If you go to the crew tomorrow and others find out, they'll laugh at you."

He walked to the door and turned to look at Li Zhao: "Also, you are a star now, don't live so poorly. Can't you afford a few bottles of water and a few clothes?"

Li Zhao grinned and sent Song Yu out. After closing the hotel room door, Li Zhao unconsciously glanced at the half-filled bottle of mineral water in the trash can and lay back on the bed.

During the years he spent in the welfare home, he had already developed the habit of not wasting food and water. Because everything they eat and every piece of clothing they wear are given to them by the country and caring people.

If something is wasted, what is wasted is not only the item, but also the kindness of others. So even though he had been away from the welfare home for nearly two years, he was reluctant to waste anything.

However, this little bit of depression was gone, but Li Zhao became happy again when he thought about the endorsement fee that would soon be received. He rolled back and forth on the bed two or three times, subconsciously wanting to tell Yan Ting the news, but he was worried about disturbing Yan Ting's sleep, so he had to put the phone back.

ah!

I really want to tell him this news. Good things must be shared with friends in time to get complete happiness.

Just as I was thinking about it, Yan Ting called.

"Tingting!" Li Zhao answered the phone as quickly as possible: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

"I'll go to bed after I finish processing the documents." The phone rang with the sound of turning pages: "Did I disturb your rest?"

"No, no." Li Zhao was now completely sleepless. "You called me so late, is there something wrong?"

Given Tingting's personality, she would not call to disturb him so late.

"Yes." Yan Ting glanced at the computer desktop, which showed Li Zhao's Weibo page: "I forgot to ask you what color bed sheets and curtains you like."

"Ah?" Li Zhao, who was still in an excited state, was a little confused.

"Have you forgotten that you promised to spend the New Year with me?" Yan Ting put down the documents in his hand and looked at the smiling expression that Li Zhao posted on Weibo. This expression looked very polite.

"No, no, how could I forget such an important thing." Li Zhao turned over and sat up from the bed: "Tingting, I have something very happy to tell you."

"What?"

His happiness almost burst out from his phone.

"I made money, a lot of money!"

Yan Ting wondered, why are there people in the world who are so easily satisfied? He is happy when he eats, happy when he gets endorsements, it seems like everything can make him happy.

"Guess the name of the company that makes me money?"

"What's your name?" Yan Ting stood up, walked to the sofa, and slowly sat down.

"Called Cang Huan." Li Zhao laughed out loud: "Is it very surprising?"

"Very unexpected." The coffee on the tea table had already gone cold. Yan Ting picked it up and was about to take a sip, but he saw his pale cheeks on the surface of the coffee.

"This is fate." Li Zhao sighed again: "I am 100% sure that you are my lucky charm."

"Your excellence has nothing to do with me."

"You don't understand." Li Zhao chatted happily with Yan Ting for a while, and suddenly remembered that Yan Ting had to catch a plane tomorrow, so he stopped talking quickly: "Go to bed quickly, and we will talk slowly when you get home tomorrow."

"good."

"By the way, you have insomnia, so don't drink coffee or strong tea before going to bed, okay?" Li Zhao kept talking, "I see a lot of office workers, they seem to like drinking coffee."

When I put the cold coffee cup down, the bottom of the cup hit the saucer, making a slight sound.

"I didn't drink."

"It's important to take care of your body, go to bed early." Li Zhao imagined a good baby lying in bed obediently, "Good night."

"Um."

Yan Ting looked at the coffee in the cup and saucer, was silent for a moment, got up and lay on the bed, and found the audio of counting dumplings on his mobile phone.

The people in Cang Huan Business Public Relations Department suddenly received a message from their superiors.

"Should we be polite when posting emojis on Weibo?"

The staff opened the official Weibo account, with a lot of greetings in their heads. As an official account of a brand with high status and prestige, their content has always been mysterious and high-end in style, but they have never been impolite.

The aesthetic taste of superiors is always so weird and confusing.

After the official announcement of Cangshi's endorsement of the latest watch, Pear fans were as happy as if it were Chinese New Year. In order to celebrate their own pears' first endorsement, some wealthy fans started a lottery event. Any netizen who has never criticized their pears can participate in the lottery.

People sympathize with the weak and admire the strong. So when Li Zhao, the weakling, slapped Zhao Junnan in the face with the endorsement, Zhao Junnan's fans became the target of ridicule from the entire Internet.

On the contrary, Song Yu, who was previously mocked by netizens as a snob, gained some favor from netizens because of his righteous words this time.

"In fact, Song Yu is originally a rich second-generation. Although he is a little stupid, he is not a bad person. When the actors of the crew of "The Domineering Female CEO" were interviewed outside, they kept talking about Li Zhao, as if they had a good relationship with Li Zhao. But when Li Zhao was ridiculed, only Song Yu stood up to speak for Li Zhao."

"True friendship is revealed in times of adversity, and so is a person's character. I will never mock Song Yu, this stupid rich second generation, again."

"No, upstairs, aren't you mocking people for being stupid?"

"The carp party has the sky above its head."

"Sisters upstairs, please don't leave. I also..."

Song Yu's public relations team took advantage of this momentum and quickly sold Song Yu's image as a straightforward rich second-generation, which received a very good response.

"I think the best thing Brother Song did was to feed Li Zhao and buy him food every day." Song Yu's assistant said to the agent, "It's so cool to get this traffic."

Although Brother Song does like to show off in private.

The next morning, Song Yu, with puffy eyes, and Li Zhao, with dark circles under their eyes, both received accusing looks from the makeup artist in the dressing room.

"Teacher Song, you are prone to swelling, so you can't drink water before going to bed." The teacher who was putting makeup on Song Yu sighed, "You will look bad on camera like this."

Her looks are not as good as Teacher Li who sits next to her, and she keeps messing with her face. When the TV series starts airing, what can she use to compete with Teacher Li who sits next to her for fans?

Although fans of looks are romantic, they are generous with their money.

In the entertainment industry, those who have fans who are good-looking can control half of the world.

But she didn't say this out loud for fear of offending others.

When Li Zhao heard the makeup artist next to him talking about Song Yu, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Song Yu's face.

Song Yu turned his body to the side, not letting Li Zhao see his face.

He regretted it now, very much. Why did he drink the mineral water worth only two yuan in a fit of anger, and even drank half a bottle of it.

"Brother Song, I can see it in the mirror." Li Zhao stared at the mirror for a moment: "It's okay, it's just that my eyes are a little smaller, it doesn't have much impact."

"Don't talk to me." Song Yu's face was full of despair.

He was wrong, he was really wrong. He shouldn't have been in the same crew with Li Zhao in the first place.

Being angry is not good for your health or beauty.

"Brother Song!" Song Yu's assistant came in from outside, his voice a little anxious: "Lu Renjia, who plays the third male lead in "The Domineering Female CEO", is the third-tier star who always wants to touch you, and he has implied you on Weibo again."

The author has something to say: Question: What do you think of the new actor Li Zhao?

Xiao Yuer: That’s an animal.

Song Yu is a straight man, and he doesn't know how to make friends.
