nThe production staff began to notice his presence as Lu Xun walked out of his hiding place with his assistant. Someone alerted the director and he immediately went to greet the big boss. Soon, the actors began to join Director An. Everyone was anxious to make a good impression on their big boss.
nLu Xun asked a few questions about the shooting before he announced that he will be treating the crew to dinner.
nAt another corner of the studio, Bai Zhi stood up straight as she continued to watch every scene in front of her.
nShe was not supposed to be at the studio at this time as she did not have a scene to shoot. However, yesterday, she had accidentally left her coat and had come to retrieve them.
nCoincidentally, the shooting had just ended when she stepped into the studio. Bai Zhi was about to take a step forward to ask about her coat from the production crew when she saw her friend, Song Xing Xing.
nBefore she could go and greet Song Xing Xing, Bai Zhi saw her friend walked towards Huo Yun Chen. Her steps halted and Bai Zhi was shocked to see that the two of them were chatting amiably with each other.
nLooking at them, Bai Zhi thought that the two of them seemed to be friends for years.
nShe has been friends with Song Xing Xing from college, but she had never known that her friend was very close to someone as popular as Huo Yun Chen.
nWhy hasn't she mentioned this thing to her?
nIf only she knew that Song Xing Xing had a connection with someone as popular, would she still need to scheme something with Producer Ye?
nAs Song Xing Xing headed upstairs to her office, Bai Zhi was watching her in anger. She did not know what else did this friend had hidden from her.
nAs someone from the post-production, perhaps Song Xing Xing had met and worked with other popular celebrities as well.
nCould it be that Song Xing Xing had any other connection with other popular celebrities as well?
nSince that was the case, why didn't she try to help her to win a project previously? Weren't they supposed to be friends?
nBai Zhi was still in deep thought when there was a sudden commotion. She raised her head and saw a handsome man was surrounded by the crews. After listening to the others for a while, Bai Zhi figured that man's identity.
nHe was the President of the NEXT Group, Lu Xun!
nBefore she had signed to work with the production team, Bai Zhi had studied about the company and knew about Lu Xun. He was one of the wealthiest men in Capital City and was involved in many industries.
nNEXT Group might be new, but the company has risen quickly. The big boss is still young and they had so much potential to grow further.
nBai Zhi did not doubt that in a few years, this group would rise to the top.
nAs these thoughts ran to her head, Bai Zhi put on a smile and walked over to join the others.
nThis is her new target.
nIf she played her cards right, perhaps this big boss would notice her too, right?
nOnce this big boss would notice her, then she did not have to work too hard to chase her dream. With this big boss's support, she could choose any project she wanted.
nWith her confidence, Bai Zhi stepped forward to greet the man and hope to gain his attention. However, before she could join the others, Bai Zhi heard someone called her name.
n
"Bai Zhi?
" The Assistant Director looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Why are you here? If I am not mistaken, your scene was yesterday. You don't have a scene today, right?
"
nHer face turned sour. Seconds later, Bai Zhi flashed a soft smile at the Assistant Director.
"Assistant Director Wen, I accidentally left my coat in the dressing room yesterday. I came here to pick it up.
"
nAssistant Director Wen nodded. Then, he turned to one of the staff and asked him to lead Bai Zhi to the dressing room.
nHer eyes narrowed. With the Assistant Director looking at her, Bai Zhi had no choice but to follow the staff to the dressing room and find the things she was looking for.
nBai Zhi had thought that she would not have the chance to get close to President Lu. However, the moment she stepped out of the room, President Lu Xun was inviting everyone to have dinner together.
nHer eyes brightened. Bai Zhi stepped forward and decided that she should join this dinner. She's not stupid. Since she was presented with this chance, of course, she should grab it quickly.
n…
nAfter being surrounded by everyone for almost half an hour, Lu Xun was finally able to escape everyone else. As he slid into his car, Lu Xun began to massage his temple.
nLu Xun merely wanted to exchange a few words with Director An. He did not think that the moment he showed up, the actors would start to surround him.
nThis was giving him a headache.
nAt this time, Lu Xun thought that perhaps he should begin to learn how to act cold to others. Previously, he had seen how Zhang Yu Han had ignored people as he released cold air around him.
nThis technique seemed very useful.
n
"President Lu, should we head to the restaurant now?
"
n
"Hmm…
" Lu Xun nodded. He took out his phone and started to log in to his game.
nAssistant Bei Yuan slid into the driver's seat and heard the familiar music again. The corner of his lips started to twitch as he looked at this game addict through the mirror.
nLu Xun looked at the offline EXP that he had collected. Then, a smile appeared on his lips when he saw that he had gotten rare equipment.
nA thought came to his mind as Lu Xun recalled something.
"Bei Yuan, did you tell them to invite the post-production crew as well?
"
nAssistant Bei Yuan glanced at the mirror again.
"Un. I did. However, a few of them are busy working on the promotional video. Some of them might not be able to join us.
"
nLu Xun lowered his head again. He seemed to recall that Song Xing Xing was one of the crews who were responsible for the promotional video. Once she heard that he would be around as well, she would not show up at this dinner, right?
nSuddenly, Lu Xun was a little disappointed.
n
