Yan Ting: I watched the movie with my kids, he acted very well.
This circle of friends still blocked Li Zhao.
He showed off his kids twice in one day, which made the senior executives of Cang Huan who saw this post on WeChat Moments couldn't help but wonder what kind of close relationship Li Zhao had with the big boss.
A few days ago, a senior executive posted a message on WeChat Moments, implicitly mocking the behavior of showing off children and displaying affection. However, when I saw the boss showing off his children twice in one day, I quietly deleted the post.
Can the boss’s show-off behavior be called showing off? That’s called being approachable and down-to-earth.
In order to better understand the boss's hobbies, these senior executives who were fortunate enough to add the boss on WeChat went out of their way to watch "Storm Rises".
They have high salaries and are busy with work, so they rarely have time to watch movies. So I suddenly decided to take my family to the movies, which unexpectedly helped to promote the relationship among my family.
After watching the movie, they looked at their happy families and couldn't help but reflect on their own wrong behavior of neglecting their family life.
On the morning of the second day of the New Year, Li Zhao changed his clothes, picked up the New Year gifts prepared for him by his housekeeper, and prepared to go out reluctantly. As a result, from the time he said he was going out, he kept dawdling until half past nine and had not yet walked out of the villa gate.
"Don't drink coffee, and eat on time at noon."
Yan Ting nodded.
Li Zhao didn't believe him: "Ask the housekeeper to record a short video of you eating and send it to me."
"Yeah." Yan Ting nodded: "If we don't leave now, we'll be late."
The housekeeper looked at the two of them with a smile: "Please rest assured, sir, I have already arranged the vehicle and driver for the trip."
Yan Ting looked up at the butler, who lowered his head and retreated, but he did not show much nervousness or fear, and there was even a smile on his face.
"Then I'm going out." Li Zhao was still a little worried: "You have to be obedient."
Yan Ting: “…”
"Li Zhao, I am eight years older than you."
"What's wrong with being eight years older?" Li Zhao picked up the New Year gift on the table with a smile, walked to the door and turned back: "Don't worry, I don't mind your age. Even if you are eight years older, we can still be friends regardless of age."
After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Yan Ting to react.
As the footsteps faded away, the popularity that had gathered around Yan Ting dissipated with Li Zhao's departure.
The empty house returned to its former coldness and silence.
When Li Zhao arrived at Zhang Xiaoyuan's home, he was warmly received by the two elders. They don’t understand the entertainment industry and always ask if they can eat enough and if they are tired.
"Not tiring, not painful." Li Zhao patiently answered these questions. Although the conversation seemed annoying to many young people, it was extremely precious to Li Zhao.
"I heard from Xiaoyuan that you and Erya are filming a movie together?" Speaking of "Erya", Zhang's mother was very interested: "Is she as beautiful as she is on TV?"
Erya is a role played by Liu Fen when she was a teenager. Because she acted so well, this role became famous all over the country. Even an eighty-year-old lady can point to Liu Fen’s photo and say, isn’t this Erya?
"She is even prettier in person than on TV." Li Zhao saw that Mother Zhang liked Liu Fen very much, so he said some good things about Liu Fen. Mother Zhang listened with great interest and couldn't even eat her meal in peace.
"Mom." Zhang Xiaoyuan brought the dishes prepared by Zhang's father to the table: "Stop talking to Zhaozhao all the time. It's time to eat."
Li Zhao wanted to go to the kitchen to help, but Zhang's mother stopped him sternly: "You must not go. Your celebrity's face is so important. It would be a pity if the smoke and fumes damaged their skin. Just leave this matter to Xiao Yuan. Anyway, he is not good-looking, and he can't be that ugly."
"I am really your biological son." Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled bitterly: "Mom, although I am not as handsome as Zhao Zhao, I am still good-looking. I don't deserve to be humiliated by you like this."
"If you're not ugly, why can't you find a girlfriend after you're over 30?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan: “…”
It turned out that she was waiting for him here.
The mother and son were arguing with each other. Looking at this scene, Li Zhao suddenly missed Yan Ting.
Only when he is with Yan Ting does he not feel like an outsider. The sense of family that comes naturally from blood ties cannot be brought by any amount of care.
But Yan Ting is different. Like himself, he has no parents, no blood brothers, and no lover.
They are the closest friends and the most special existence to each other.
Although Yan Ting never said this, Li Zhao had a mysterious confidence that Yan Ting treated him as much as he treated Yan Ting.
They are best brothers.
After dinner, Li Zhao sat in Zhang's house for a while and then suggested leaving.
Although Zhang's parents were reluctant to let him go, they thought that Li Zhao was a star and his work schedule was different from that of ordinary people, so they did not ask him to stay. Instead, they picked up a lot of local specialties given by relatives and friends, as well as homemade snacks, and stuffed them into Li Zhao's hands.
"I'll drive you." Zhang Xiaoyuan picked up the car keys and walked Li Zhao downstairs.
"Brother Xiaoyuan, there's no need to be so troublesome." Li Zhao felt a little embarrassed when he saw Zhang Xiaoyuan start to change his shoes: "My friend arranged a driver to pick me up downstairs."
"Yan Ting?"
"Yeah." Li Zhao was holding two plastic bags full of food in his hands. When he nodded, the bags shook slightly.
"Then I'll take you downstairs." Zhang Xiaoyuan changed his shoes and helped Li Zhao carry a bag: "It seems that you had a very happy New Year."
Li Zhao squinted his eyes and smiled.
Zhang Xiaoyuan's parents live in an old staff building, which has no elevator. The walls of the corridor were covered with messy lines drawn by the children in the building. Some houses had their doors left open, and you could hear the sound of the TV when you stood on the stairs.
"You can come pick you up in the evening." Zhang Xiaoyuan said, "Don't bear it if you are wronged."
"What if we go sell noodles together?" Li Zhao smiled.
"Don't mention the word 'selling noodles'. I'm going to have PTSD from running a noodle shop." Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled bitterly, "Recently, a new script was handed to me. It's not a play from Strawberry Entertainment. Have you read it?"
"The script called 'My Fairy Girlfriend'?" Li Zhao had some impression of this script: "It seems to be a comic adaptation script, the plot is quite interesting."
"Yes, this comic is very popular online and has a certain fan base. However, due to the subject matter, it can only be broadcast online." Zhang Xiaoyuan explained: "If you hadn't participated in "Storm Rising", I would suggest you take this drama, but now your role in "Storm Rising" has been well received. Taking on the online drama "Goblin Girlfriend" will not be of much help to your long-term development."
After this drama is broadcast, it may help Zhao Zhao attract some fans, but it may also easily stereotype him. If you want to access other types of resources in the future, you will have to put in more effort. If Zhao Zhao had not signed with Strawberry Entertainment, he would definitely let Zhao Zhao accept the script invitation without thinking twice, but the situation is different now.
There is no need to sacrifice your long-term future for temporary popularity.
"I understand." Li Zhao nodded. Although he liked the plot of "Girlfriend of a Fairy" very much, he knew that Brother Xiaoyuan's suggestion was right. Moreover, "Song of Heaven" had not yet finished filming, so he did not have enough time and energy to write a character biography for the new script character: "Help me to push the invitation from the drama company."
"Okay." Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded with a smile.
After sending Li Zhao downstairs, he saw a luxury car parked not far away: "Zhao, is that the car that came to pick you up?"
"Yeah." Li Zhao took the things from Zhang Xiaoyuan's hand: "Brother Xiaoyuan, it's cold outside, you should go back quickly, I'm leaving now."
Zhang Xiaoyuan watched Li Zhao leave. He noticed that after seeing Li Zhao walking towards the car, the driver of the luxury car hurriedly got out of the car, walked quickly to Li Zhao, and took away everything in his hands.
It’s not easy to be a private driver nowadays, as you have to carry things for your employer’s friends.
Before the previous boss ran away with the money, he also hired a driver. That driver was not as attentive to the boss himself. He even complained privately that the boss was stingy and always found excuses to deduct his salary.
Rich people are different. Even the drivers they hire are different.
On the way Li Zhao was rushing home, Yan Ting had no appetite in front of the table full of delicious food.
"Sir," the housekeeper advised, "you should at least eat something, otherwise what can I use to shoot a video for Mr. Li?"
Yan Ting was about to put down his chopsticks, but his hand paused slightly: "What time is it?"
"It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon." The housekeeper took out his cell phone and said, "How about you just eat a few bites and I'll take a video and send it to Mr. Li?"
Yan Ting looked up at the butler, who was looking at the food on the table with a smile, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.
There was the sound of a car driving into the gate outside, and the housekeeper was surprised: "So early, could it be that Mr. Li is back?" Putting away his phone, he walked outside and saw Li Zhao getting out of the car.
"Uncle housekeeper." Li Zhao carried two large bags and walked quickly to the housekeeper: "Has Tingting eaten yet?"
The housekeeper answered the question irrelevantly: "Mr. Li is back so early?"
"Yeah." Li Zhao walked in and saw Yan Ting sitting at the table eating: "Tingting, why are you eating now?"
Yan Ting wiped the corner of his mouth and put down his chopsticks: "I dealt with some work at noon, so I was late for dinner. Why did you come back so early?"
"I'm just worried that you didn't eat well, so I just came back to check on you." Li Zhao put the food in the kitchen, washed his hands, and sat down at the dining table: "Nothing on the table has been touched. I really can't do anything about you, I'll eat with you for a while."
Taking the empty bowl and clean chopsticks, Li Zhao boasted: "Everyone in the crew said that watching me eat makes them eat more. Look at me more later, it will whet your appetite."
The housekeeper standing in the corner saw that the gentleman had eaten a lot of food with Mr. Li's company, and silently wiped his face.
It seems that it’s not his way of persuasion that is wrong, but his face that is wrong.
When a woman grows old and loses her beauty, she can certainly not compare to a beautiful woman.
Knowing that Yan Ting had a problem with not eating well, Li Zhao accompanied him to finish dinner in the evening before rushing to the place where he had an appointment with "The Wind and Clouds Rises".
The audience was very enthusiastic, and when Li Zhao came on stage, many girls screamed.
"Wow, the audience is so enthusiastic." The host joked, "Come on, let's invite our Master Wushuang to come and say hello to everyone."
"Everyone, I'm the handsome man in "Storm Rising" Wushuang Gongzi." Li Zhao had just greeted them when he heard the audience shouting, "No, you're the handsome man with good acting skills."
"Who praised me like that?" Li Zhao looked down at the audience. "Whether you guys are fooling me or not, I took it seriously."
"real!"
The female audience members shouted in unison: "It's more real than pearls."
Male audience: “…”
If their girlfriend or wife is being very attentive to another man in front of them, don't they have any dignity?
They looked at Li Zhao secretly, and finally had to admit that this actor was indeed good-looking. He is energetic and has a bright smile. Even people of the same sex who have opposite personalities find it difficult to dislike such a boy.
After the roadshow, Liu Fen and Zhao Yingnan were surrounded by reporters. Some media couldn't squeeze in and gathered in front of Li Zhao.
"Zhao Zhao, The Storm Rising has only been out for two days and the box office has already exceeded 300 million. As a special guest star in this movie, what do you think?"
"Very happy." Li Zhao didn't know why the reporter asked such a meaningless question.
"A film critic said that your performance is the highlight of the entire movie. Do you agree with him?"
Here it comes, here it comes, the reporter digging holes that Brother Luo and Brother Xiaoyuan reminded him of is here, Li Zhao is a little excited: "As a newcomer, it's an honor to be praised. I think the whole play is a highlight, if you don't believe me, you can buy a ticket to watch it."
"It is said online that you will play the male lead in "My Fairy Girlfriend". Is this true?"
Li Zhao was slightly stunned: "Recently, I will be participating in the filming of Director Yang's "Heavenly Song" crew, and I haven't taken on any other work."
The scene was noisy. Although the questions asked by the reporters were strange, there were no malicious or tricky questions.
Just as Li Zhao was about to end the interview, a reporter suddenly asked loudly: "Li Zhao, the screenwriter of "The Overbearing Female CEO" said that you turned your back on people after you became famous. Do you have any explanation?"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the crew members came over to maintain order: "The free interview time is over, journalists, please make way."
"Li Zhao, don't you want to give a positive response?"
"The interview is over." Dake squeezed over, glanced at the reporter's work ID, and protected Li Zhao behind him: "Please don't ask questions that are not related to the movie. Thank you."
Liu Fen noticed something was wrong and signaled her assistant to come over for help.
After returning to the backstage together, Liu Fen comforted Li Zhao: "Don't take it to heart. Every popular artist will be accused of being heartless and ungrateful. That screenwriter is probably using you to hype himself up. If you respond, you're just helping him hype himself up. The best way to deal with such people is to ignore them."
"Thank you Sister Fenfen." Li Zhao thanked her obediently.
"You don't need to thank me, since they are from my own company." Liu Fen said with a sweet smile, "I went through the same thing back then. Even now, whenever something happens to my former partners, someone will come and scold me for not caring enough about them."
At this point, Liu Fen rolled her eyes gracefully: "They are just people who are just watching the fun and don't mind making trouble. Who takes who seriously?"
Li Zhao still just smiled.
Liu Fen stopped talking: "I heard that you are going to shoot a promotional advertisement for Cang Shi tomorrow, come on."
"Thanks."
Song family.
"Are you sure Li Zhao rejected the invitation to My Fairy Girlfriend?" Song Yu received a call from his agent and said excitedly, "That's great. Please help me get this role as soon as possible."
The agent: "Why do you have to wait until Li Zhao refuses to accept the offer before you fight for it? This drama is not invested by Strawberry Entertainment. Even if Li Zhao is interested in it, we still have room to fight for it..."
"You don't understand." Song Yu said with a vicissitudes of life: "There is a difference between actively grabbing and picking up bargains."
Because he didn't dare lose his temper with fate.
After the agent finished talking to Song Yu, he called the production team of My Fairy Girlfriend, preparing to help Song Yu get the role.
"What, the role has been decided?" The agent was a little surprised: "That's not what you said this afternoon."
How come the statement changed in just a few hours?
The author has something to say: The baby in kindergarten is picky about food again.
Baby Zhao dragged a small stool and sat next to him, eating with a small spoon: Tingting, let's eat together.
Baby Ting picked up the small bowl obediently.
