Chapter 234 Extra: Past Life (26)
In the end, Zhou Chong chose a company for Shan Qingshan. As for the agent, Zhou Chong did not give in and transferred one from his own team. He also personally supervised the recruitment of a personal assistant for Shan Qingshan.
Privately, he even listed Shan Qingshan's name in his own company's public relations department.
Zhou Chong couldn't believe that that lousy company was reliable.
Shan Qingshan went to sign the contract alone.
The company was satisfied with his appearance, but after getting to know him, they preferred his personality even more.
In the entertainment industry, you either need a powerful background or you need to be incredibly resilient.
Otherwise, it wouldn't even qualify as a fourth or fifth-tier city.
After the contract was signed and all issues were settled, the manager capped his pen and said...
"Let's get down to business. You're not young anymore, and you won't have many more years to reap the benefits. Old Ye, make some arrangements to get him and Xiaomin in some photos together."
Shan Qingshan: "Trying to create a CP (couple pairing)?"
"Um."
Shao Min is a second-tier actress, but her popularity and reputation are both quite good.
"By creating a CP (couple pairing) between you and her, you can quickly enter the public eye, and it will be easier to end the matter in the end. You can just say that you are taking care of the company's juniors in advance."
"I disagree, and I do not accept any form of gossip or hype."
The general manager on the other end was also a shrewd person. "Do you have connections? Or a sugar daddy?"
"I have a boyfriend."
"Depend on!"
The general manager immediately started yelling.
This is completely unexpected!
This is also the most difficult situation.
If Shan Qingshan's gay identity is exposed, he will face a very difficult situation.
"We broke up."
"I don't want to."
"Are you crazy?! You want to date? What the hell are you doing in the entertainment industry? Once this gets out, your rivals will beat you to death just for that! Then they'll climb to the top over your corpse!"
Shan Qingshan looked at the furious manager and said, "I don't need so many resources."
grass!
This is not regression!
Shan Qingshan gave the manager another whack, saying, "I don't want any intimate scenes in my script."
The manager was completely furious.
From "Who do you think you are?" to "Can you even distinguish between career and love?"
Shan Qingshan simply refuses to back down.
He is like a lonely island, standing firm against the waves and the rain.
The manager was so angry that he went to the window and lit a cigarette.
When she was evaluating Shan Qingshan, she had already made plans for his future in her mind.
With such a beautiful face, it's natural for her to act in romance dramas; it doesn't matter if her acting skills are a little lacking.
As long as the face remains, the country will remain.
By subtly selling some sensual content and manipulating fans, one can easily rise to a minor, tier-7 or tier-8 status.
If I don't accept intimate scenes, then I can only act in serious dramas.
When will I finally get ahead?
The manager regretted signing him.
"Do you believe I'll freeze you out like your former employer did?!"
Shan Qingshan remained unmoved, saying, "Then I can only go home and let my boyfriend support me."
The manager was so angry he couldn't speak.
In the end, both sides compromised.
Shan Qingshan doesn't accept intimate relationships, but he can't stop the company from releasing scandals, and he can't embarrass the company.
My boyfriend's side...
Manager: "If you love her so much, you should comfort her yourself."
Shan Qingshan was completely speechless.
At first, he was a little worried that the company might act recklessly, but later he found that the company was indeed very discreet. Rather than trying to capitalize on his popularity, they clearly valued Shao Min's reputation more and kept it to a minimum.
The first advertising job Shan Qingshan received was for a food company's new product advertisement, where he served as a background figure.
The spokesperson is a very popular celebrity who has a good temper and is very gentle. When he saw Shan Qingshan, he smiled and said, "It's so unfair that such a handsome young man is just a background figure."
Then someone moved him to the front, and there was a brief shot of him.
Everything was prepared before filming began.
There was some commotion at the scene.
Someone rushed in and whispered a few words to the manager in charge.
The manager's expression changed, and he immediately instructed the staff to turn on the equipment and get it into working order.
Less than two minutes.
Shan Qingshan saw Zhou Chong walk in surrounded by a crowd.
My heart is pounding.
After the disbelief and surprise, comes a long and complex silence, probably longer than the equator.
He had slept in the same bed with this person just the day before yesterday.
The ankle that was resting on this person's shoulder had a hickey from being sucked, and it hasn't faded yet.
This person was complaining to him on WeChat yesterday.
Why are you still working and staying out all night? Are you tired? Is the work heavy? Is it legitimate?
How could you bear to let your boyfriend spend the night alone at home? What if someone breaks in?
I am so fragile.
Shan Qingshan assured him that he would definitely go back tonight.
This person showed up before tonight even arrived.
This was the first time Shan Qingshan had seen Zhou Chong in his working state.
She exudes a powerful aura and remains calm and composed.
Just by walking in, everyone present, whether they could see him or not, tensed up and the atmosphere changed.
It felt somewhat unfamiliar to Shan Qingshan.
Zhou Chong's gaze met his for a fleeting moment before sweeping over him indifferently.
This made Shan Qingshan's idea that "he came to find me" less certain.
The big boss was watching from here, and the atmosphere was heavy and tense.
On the fifth take, Shan Qingshan noticed that the female celebrity in front of him wasn't facing the camera; instead, she gave Zhou Chong a charming and alluring look.
Shan Qingshan looked at Zhou Chong uncontrollably.
The photographer immediately noticed, "Hey, teacher in the white shirt, don't look around."
Shan Qingshan quickly looked away.
It was filmed for the eighth time.
Zhou Chong spoke.
"We're all tired, let's buy some food."
The assistant beside him nodded and was about to leave when Zhou Chong added, "The one in Bianyang Port."
Shan Qingshan didn't react at the time; he only recognized the shopping bag when the items arrived.
He had just eaten it the day before yesterday and praised it, but Zhou Chong licked off the cream from the corner of his mouth.
I immediately felt my face getting hot.
They thought they could control it, but they didn't realize that no detail could escape human eyes or the camera.
Photographer: "This teacher's blush is so funny, was it her own design?"
Shan Qingshan reluctantly accepted it.
Zhou Chong was displeased.
He missed it so much that he ran over to take a look.
I cannot get close to them, I cannot hug them, I cannot kiss them.
They've practically kissed each other so much, but now they have to pretend they're not close.
It's already annoying enough.
And you even have to watch his wife blush in front of other people!
They're practically offering themselves up for a taste of vinegar.
Zhou Chong caught a glimpse of the female celebrity bringing over a piece of cake, immediately grabbed one, and handed it to Shan Qingshan first.
Shan Qingshan: "..."
Has he gone mad?
He was handed a cake in public?
"Isn't this teacher hungry?"
"..."
“They all have them.”
Shan Qingshan reluctantly accepted it.
My heart feels like it's being scratched by a cat.
Fortunately, he's an actor, so he managed to keep a straight face, but if you looked into his eyes, you could see the guilty look in them.
I have a strong sense of guilt.
This slight embarrassment and annoyance naturally did not escape Zhou Chong's notice. He pursed his lips, concealing the smile that was rising within him.
like……
There are advantages to not making things public.
The female celebrity who was endorsing the product originally intended to strike up a conversation with Zhou Chong by handing Shan Qingshan a cake.
This person has an extraordinary presence, surrounded by a crowd, and must hold a very high position of authority.
Now, all I can do is step forward empty-handed, revealing my pretty and charming smile.
"The pastries here are delicious. We are so lucky to be able to eat such good pastries, thanks to Mr. Zhou."
The words weren't anything outrageous, but the obvious conversation clearly indicated that someone had something in mind.
The assistant remained silent, assuming that President Zhou would ignore him again as before...
Zhou Chong's gaze swept lightly over Shan Qingshan.
Shan Qingshan had a bad feeling.
Zhou Chongdao said, "It's my wife; she's the one who likes to eat more."
Shan Qingshan: "..."
Dan Qingshan's face was a little prickly.
Everyone on set heard it.
Mr. Zhou has a girlfriend?!
The female celebrity paused for a moment, then composed herself and said in a friendly manner, "Mr. Zhou's wife must be very beautiful, a perfect match for you."
"It is very beautiful."
Shan Qingshan: "..."
"He's just a bit cold and shy, and he doesn't really like me mentioning him to others."
Shan Qingshan: "..."
Help.
"If I bring it up... it might be a little difficult to appease."
Shan Qingshan: "..."
Is this never going to end?
Those present were forced to swallow a huge mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
The manager in charge of filming smiled and said, "It seems Mr. Zhou has good news coming soon."
“Look at him.”
Zhou Chong paused briefly, waiting for Shan Qingshan to finish his water sip, before speaking: "Teacher, how long do you think a relationship should last before marriage?"
"..."
