After hearing what Pei Yi said, Jiang Se also remembered this incident.
At that time, she asked Pei Yi for help, but later Xia Chaoqun asked her to take on the filming of "About I Love You" first, so she put the matter aside for the time being.
She responded, thinking about what Xia Chaoqun had said before, and considering her meeting with Zhao Rang today, it was very likely that Liu Ye would be cast as the male lead in "Devil" this time.
Liu Ye has been in the industry for many years and has superb acting skills. He has won the Best Actor Award at the China International Film Festival and is a well-deserved actor. Working with him is both a risk and an opportunity. As Xia Chaoqun mentioned, if you are not careful, you may be suppressed by his acting skills in the play and become a laughing stock.
Jiang Se naturally couldn't be content to be a supporting role. Since she chose this line of work and entered the entertainment industry, she never thought of just being a vase.
After chatting with Pei Yi for a long time, Jiang Se heard the low-battery alarm. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost one o'clock. Pei Yi had to leave in the early morning, so he would not be able to sleep for a few hours even if he lay down.
Jiang Se said good night to him. When she woke up the next morning, she received a message from Pei Yi in the middle of the night. Thousands of words were condensed into a few simple words: France, wait for me.
She tried to call Pei Yi, but sure enough, the phone was turned off.
When he was at home, I always felt like he was always pestering me, but now that he was gone, the house felt empty.
There were still several days before the filming of the commercial. Jiang Se had originally planned to go to the Grand Theater to try to rehearse a stage play, but for some reason, she remembered what Pei Yi mentioned last night. She took out her cell phone, found Nie Dan's contact information, and sent a message to ask about this matter.
After she confirmed her relationship with Pei Yi, Nie Dan and several others added her as friends, but they didn't chat much. When she sent a message, she thought Nie Dan would have to wait a long time before replying. Unexpectedly, her phone rang immediately. Nie Dan called her:
"Sister-in-law, when is convenient for you?"
She originally wanted to say late August, after she returned from France, but she was unsure of her return date, so she simply said:
"Or in October."
After October, I should be able to make some time. Nie Dan responded straightforwardly:
"OK."
As the time for shooting the commercial approached, Xia Chaoqun arranged a strict beauty and skin care schedule for Jiang Se, and booked a top beauty salon for her, requiring Mo Anqi to drive her there every day.
This time, Xia Chaoqun arranged a full-body beauty treatment, from hair to toes. The cost was naturally staggering. It took a total of five days, and cost one-third of Jiang Se's endorsement fee for Adeele jeans.
Coupled with the newly rented villa by Mo Anqi and the financial broker that Xia Chaoqun was looking for for Jiang Se, Jiang Se suddenly felt that he had been spending money like water recently.
But the effect of the beauty project is also amazing. This top beauty salon is frequented by socialites, and the products used are all pure plant extracts imported from abroad. Products with different functions are applied with the unique and professional techniques of beauticians. After a few days, Mo Anqi was extremely envious.
At first glance, there doesn't seem to be much change, but after a closer look, you can see the clues.
Jiang Se's skin was originally very good. She was still young, so her skin was white and tender, but now it looked even more crystal clear. After being cared for, her long hair was as smooth as silk, and so black that it looked a little blue.
Not to mention the pair of white and tender feet exposed when she put on sandals. Even the skin connecting the toe joints looked more tender than the skin on Mo Anqi's hands.
This money was not wasted. Once invested, the effect was seen in just a few days. Mo Anqi was immediately motivated:
"I want to work hard and accompany you to become a big star, increase my salary, and try to run a beauty project!"
On July 10, Jiang Se arrived in Hong Kong in advance, and the next day, accompanied by people from the Hong Kong China Group, he boarded a plane directly to Paris.
The person who accompanied Jiang Se to Paris this time was a trusted confidant of Zheng Shirong from the Hong Kong China Group. She was a woman in her thirties, with neatly combed hair and a medium build. Everyone accompanying her from the Hong Kong China Group seemed to admire her very much. They said she was a Japanese named Maki, and could speak fluent Chinese.
"Ms. Jiang, I would like to give you a brief overview of the schedule for this shoot."
On the plane, Maki took the itinerary and sat next to Jiang Se.
In fact, as early as the beginning of the shooting schedule, people from Hong Kong China Group had already sent the plan to Jiang Se's newly applied email address and confirmed and compared it with her.
Maki mentioned it again at this moment, which was actually a sideways inquiry as to whether Jiang Se had any other opinions, and also to make a final confirmation of this trip to avoid any other problems.
"After arriving in Paris, I've booked you a stay at Le Bristol Paris for ten days."
When Jiang Se heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Maki noticed Jiang Se's strangeness and asked with a smile: "Is there any problem?"
"Le Bristol Paris?"
"Yes." Maki nodded, obviously not very surprised that Jiang Se knew about this hotel: "You are the opposite of Honghua for the first time, and Mr. Xu also attaches great importance to this filming. In addition, the filming location is also rented in the hotel, so the place to stay for this trip is decided there."
For many people, when most people think of Paris's luxury streets, the first thing that comes to mind is the Champs-Elysées. However, in recent years, with the soaring housing prices on the Champs-Elysées, many brands have moved away.
The Le Bristol Paris mentioned by Maki is a famous hotel in Paris with a long history, low-key and luxurious. Most celebrities and stars will choose this hotel when they go to Paris. Jiang Se also stayed there several times when he went to Paris before his rebirth.
This time, Honghua booked the hotel there, obviously treating her as one of the top female stars in the country.
"After shooting, you can go shopping. Chanel is across from the hotel, and that street is full of famous brand stores." Maki put the information on his legs and started chatting with Jiang Se:
"Every Saturday, the hotel holds a brand fashion show, you can take a look. The photographer for this shoot is..." She had already memorized the information in her mind, and introduced it to Jiang Se in a low voice.
Maki's behavior was inconsistent with her old-fashioned and serious appearance. Besides talking about boring work, she would also mention some fashion-related things to make the topic interesting. She was very familiar with various brands and their series, which surprised Jiang Se. (To be continued)
