In fact, no one around him was optimistic about the relationship between Li Wei and Zhao Qian. Among the scandals that appeared every now and then, Li Wei chose to believe in Zhao Qian's persistence over the years and the bond between them.
At the beginning of the second lunar month, Li Wei received a call from his mother, who told her that Li Xia had given birth to a fat boy weighing eight pounds and two ounces. She said she went to the city to give birth and encountered a dangerous situation during the birth. Li Xia almost died in the delivery room. He also said that Li Xia’s husband never showed up.
Li Wei didn't have much reaction when he heard about it. He just said "I got it" and hung up the phone.
Zhang Weihong asked her to find a job for Li Xia in the future, but she didn't want to cause trouble for herself now.
A few days later, she received an electronic invitation to the class reunion from her high school monitor. Not to mention the invitation was beautifully made. The date was chosen on Labor Day, and she wasn't sure whether Li Wei's industry would have a serious holiday, but she wrote in her reply that she would try to go there as much as possible.
The column gradually got on the right track, and Li Wei's name became more and more famous all over the country. Usually when I go to the supermarket or go to the cinema, people will recognize her, and more and more people ask for autographs and photos. Some of her fans even wrote to her and sent her gifts. She reads every letter carefully, and sometimes she acts as a close friend and chooses to reply to her fans.
The taste of fame may come a little late for a person who is almost thirty, but Li Wei has not become arrogant because of her fame. She is doing shows down to earth and living a simple life as she pleases. She is still who she is.
As her fame grew, the TV station promoted her title and nearly tripled her salary in order to retain her. Their TV station allows its hosts to accept commercial performances and external work as long as it does not violate the principles. Of course, all these must be sought from the superiors and approved by the superiors.
Then an advertiser came to Li Wei to shoot a furniture advertisement and offered him an endorsement fee of 300,000 yuan. Although the price was not high, judging from Li Wei's reputation, the offer was not too small. . She consulted her supervisor Wu Ming on this matter.
After hearing this, Wu Ming smiled and said: "It's a good thing that someone approached you to shoot an advertisement. I'm sure, but you have to report it to your superiors and see what they say."
After receiving the instructions, Li Wei successfully accepted the first advertisement in his life. She has been in front of the camera for many years, and she has a good sense of the camera. She is not ambiguous when she reads the advertising slogan, and the short 21-second advertisement is passed in one go.
In just twenty-one seconds, she earned three hundred thousand yuan. The money came so quickly. It's no wonder that people with a little bit of ability are now trying to get into the entertainment industry.
She was worried about what to do with the money. If she wanted to use it for other investments, she would have less money and change to a better car. She felt that this car would not keep its value. After thinking about it, she decided to use this money. Use the money to buy a house, a house of your own. But Li Wei asked her second brother for advice on which location to buy.
"When you buy a house, do you plan to live in it yourself or use it as an investment?"
Li Wei said: "I want to have my own home."
"Oh, that's easy. Choose a place a little closer to work. There are a lot of newly opened properties recently. It should be transparent from north to south, with good lighting and a reasonable layout. Don't buy too big, 100 square meters. It’s enough for you to live alone.”
Li Jianbo was busy at work and was temporarily in charge of some domestic undertakings as his mother. Li Wei was too embarrassed to pester her second brother to help as a consultant, so she had to make her own decisions.
When the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, an old friend who had not been in contact for many years suddenly came to the TV station to find Li Wei.
When Li Wei saw the man standing in front of him wearing sportswear, with neat short hair and a round face, she didn't recognize him for a moment.
Until the other party said: "Li Wei, you really don't recognize me? We still lived in the same dormitory when we were in college. I haven't changed that much."
"Are you Xiang Hailan?!" There is still a bit of a resemblance between the features, but his image and temperament have changed so much that Li Wei is afraid to recognize him.
Xiang Hailan smiled and nodded and said, "It's me. Are you doing well now?"
Qian Qian heard from Chen Zhu that Xiang Hailan was working as a reporter at a radio station. Why did he suddenly come here and even come to his door? He didn't know why.
"It's okay, how about you? I met Chen Zhu a few months ago. She told me some of the current situation of my bedmates back then. She also mentioned you. I heard that you are working as a reporter?"
Xiang Hailan smiled and said, "Yes, but that is already a thing of the past. By the way, you are still at work. I can't disturb you. I will come find you when you get off work."
"There's still more than an hour left." Li Wei glanced at his watch.
Xiang Hailan really didn't bother Li Wei anymore, so he went to a coffee shop to wait for Li Wei to get off work.
Regarding Xiang Hailan's sudden appearance, Li Wei was very puzzled as to where this woman came from. I'm afraid it's not as simple as getting together with old friends.
Li Wei continued to immerse herself in writing her report. When it was time to get off work, she packed her things and got ready to get off work.
When Li Wei drove out of the TV station, Xiang Hailan was still waiting for her at the door. Li Weipo had no choice but to open the car door and let Xiang Hailan get in.
After Xiang Hailan got into the car, he said, "Li Wei, your car is quite old, why don't you get a new one?"
Li smiled and said, "It's easy to change to a new one. It doesn't cost any money?"
Xiang Hailan also chuckled after hearing this: "You are a big star now, but you still lack this little money? After all, driving out represents your identity, so you can't do anything to lower the price."
Li Wei secretly thought that Xiang Hailan was in the business selling cars
"I don't have any plans to replace my car yet. Although my car is a bit old, it basically hasn't had any major problems. When I sent it for maintenance, people said that my car has good performance and it has been with me all these years. , How can I just change it? It’s also emotional.” During the rush hour, there was already a long queue, and Li Wei reluctantly stepped on the brakes and stood in the queue waiting for the traffic police to evacuate.
"Xiang Hailan, what do you like to eat? I'll treat you to dinner."
"This is a good thing. As long as you invite me, I like it."
Li Wei's hands were firmly holding the steering wheel, and she was quickly thinking about any good restaurants nearby.
It was already ten minutes after waiting for the passage to pass. Li Wei drove Xiang Hailan to a newly opened restaurant one kilometer away.
As soon as she entered the door, the foreman came out and said with a smile: "Anchor Li is here, welcome. Who are you today?"
"Just the two of us, we want a quiet spot."
The foreman led them upstairs and found a quiet private room.
Xiang Hailan sat down and looked around. He could see the night view of the city clearly through the window.
The waiter brought the recipe and was very respectful.
Li Wei gave the recipe to Xiang Hailan and asked her to order. Xiang Hailan took a look at it and was not polite. He ordered a few dishes according to the expensive names on the menu and said while ordering: "It will cost you money."
