"Girl, aren't you trying to get into trouble?" Director Cao Hao shook his head helplessly and looked at Tang Xiaoxiao with some depression, "Aren't directing the same as acting? You can accept the career of an agent and you can accept the director. In this profession, you can accept that your boyfriend is an actor, and you can even stand in front of the public and accept criticism and criticism. Why can't you accept yourself as an artist?"
"Am I... trying to get into trouble?" Tang Xiaoxiao was a little shocked.
Cao Hao shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Yes, Xiaoxiao, what is the difference between you and those artists now?"
Tang Xiaoxiao was completely stunned, "I..."
"In mainland China, your reputation is not that good, but once you return to Taiwan, as long as you walk on the street, try it, what are your chances of being recognized?" Cao Hao's voice became a little sharper unconsciously. "You can also ask, how many companies want you to be their image spokesperson? How many shows want you to walk for them? How many fans are looking forward to your performance? Do you think you are just a simple behind-the-scenes person? —Are there any differences between you now and those artists who have already debuted?"
Tang Xiaoxiao fell completely silent, speechless, but dug her nails into her flesh, and her eyes showed a somewhat sad and desolate expression.
"I don't know what you are taboo about, but in my opinion, there is no physical difference between the two professions of director and actor. If you have the talent and talent of being a director, don't you also have the talent and talent of being an actor? Talent?"
"Director... actor..." Tang Xiaoxiao murmured these two words, spread his hands, and a line of tears couldn't stop flowing down his cheeks.
I don't want to be an actor or an artist, just because I don't want to use what the devil taught me, because... director, agent, even finance, business, weren't all of these things given to me by He Zusheng? ! What he did today was all what he forced himself to learn, and it was all done by his own hands!
I originally thought that I would not rely on what the devil taught me, but I didn't expect... I have been deceiving myself all this time!
Sisters, am I really kidding myself? What I think is to cultivate top and excellent artists is just a joke!
Looking at Tang Xiaoxiao burying her face deeply in the palms of her hands, Mu Li and Cao Hao said nothing and remained silent. They knew that in the heart of that seemingly strong girl, there was a secret that no one else knew. It is also a dead knot. Being able to open this dead knot with her own strength will determine Tang Xiaoxiao's future life.
Is this really the case? Use what the devil taught you to stand at the top... That is a bloody shame!
But, so what? ! I have used what He Zusheng taught me to get where I am today, and even abandoned my beliefs and persistence to establish the public relations department of Longshan Entertainment in Taiwan... and ruined the dignity of so many young boys and girls!
No! —I am different from that devil!
He is just for profit, for his ambition, for Shengshi Entertainment! As for myself, it is for dreams and protection...
No matter I am Ye Yuxin or Tang Xiaoxiao, I am always a living person. No matter whether my wrist is light or dark, no one can stop my faith and perseverance. Since it was the devil who taught me all this, I will use this Give him everything back! He Zusheng, Shengshi Entertainment, - I will never let you go!
In the silent gaze of the two people, Tang Xiaoxiao finally slowly raised his head, with a trace of tears still hanging in the corners of his eyes, but his face was already full of determination. He took a deep breath, forced away the haze in his heart, and barely showed a trace of With a slight smile, "I'm fine. Director Cao is right, I got into trouble."
Cao Hao and Mu Li breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, looked at each other, and nodded slightly.
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Xiaoxiao said calmly, "Let's do this, Director Cao. I will accept this role, but I will not show my face. I will try my best to make up for it with my acting skills, body language and other things. Please give me some time to accept everything." ,OK?"
"Okay!" Cao Hao responded immediately, smiling heartily.
It was an unexpected surprise to receive such a reply from Tang Xiaoxiao. Cao Hao was originally just a test, and did not have much expectations for this request. Taking the opportunity of this role, on the one hand, he polished While practicing Tang Xiaoxiao's directing skills and being able to test Tang Xiaoxiao's acting level, Cao Hao was naturally filled with joy.
The two of them finalized the matter of Tang Xiaoxiao's guest appearance, and then went upstairs to the room to take a rest. In the evening, the crew and creative staff will have a small gathering. Most Chinese people's friendships are based on drinking at the wine table. , even if Tang Xiaoxiao is a director, it is inevitable to have such entertainment.
At around six o'clock in the evening, the three people appeared in a hotel box outside the film and television base on time. When they entered, the place was already full of people drinking and drinking. Seeing Tang Xiaoxiao walking in, Director Cao Hao immediately put down his wine glass and clapped his hands. Signaling everyone to quiet down, "Everyone, please allow me to introduce this beauty..."
"Director Tang! Everyone knows him!" Producer Xu Jianzhong said with a smile, "Cao Hao, they took away your deputy assistant director, so you brought in a beautiful woman to act as a virgin. It's really a good plan. Ah! Director Tang Da is much more eye-catching than Wang Meng."
Being teased like this by Xu Jianzhong, a blush flashed across Tang Xiaoxiao's face. She picked up the quilt cheerfully and took out a bottle of juice and poured it in. "Everyone, I'm sorry, I'm late. I'll use juice instead of wine to express my gratitude to everyone." Apologize."
"Director Tang, don't you want to show off like this?" Xu Jianzhong teased, pointing to the large wine glass in front of the stage manager Sister Ping, "Sister Ping is also a beauty, and she also drinks white wine!"
Sister Ping, who is still in her forties and still has charm, glared angrily, "Old Xu, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute! In front of the beautiful Tang Dynasty, what kind of beauty am I, an older woman with an old face and yellow pearls?" ?”
Everyone laughed.
The people sitting in this box are all the main staff of the crew, and there are no actors. Cao Hao does this just to let everyone get familiar with each other and get in touch with each other as soon as possible. Tang Xiaoxiao is the second director of this drama, and everyone is also They had known it for a long time, but the two people Mu Li and Xue Xiaohan following Tang Xiaoxiao were a bit unacceptable to everyone.
Tang Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I forgot to introduce you. This is Mu Li. He always follows me closely. My little brother in the family is very clingy... This is Xue Xiaohan. I I have a lot of my own affairs, so I rely on her to take care of most of them, so you don’t need to pay too much attention to them."
Everyone then looked away. Although they couldn't say they were disgusted, their evaluation of Tang Xiaoxiao was cast a shadow. He was just a director who had just debuted, and there were two people around him. He really thought he was some big shot. Already
Cao Hao's face was slightly embarrassed.
After the meal, everyone had different opinions on this Tang beauty. However, when they were about to finish the meal, Sister Ping went to the toilet. When she came back, she saw Director Tang’s personal assistant Xue Xiaohan holding a A golden card was handed to the front desk, and he said calmly, "Check out for box 28."
Seeing the gold card, the waiter was slightly startled and called the lobby manager over.
When the lobby manager saw the gold card, his expression changed slightly. He immediately entered the card number into the computer system and bowed respectfully to Xue Xiaohan, "It turns out that Miss Tang is also here. According to the information left on this supreme card, Tang The young lady is under the Wei Group, so all orders are free of charge, this is what Master Wei Yanmo means."
"Oh? Really?" Xue Xiaohan played with the Supreme Card and said with a smile, "I am not Miss Tang. She is still eating in the box, but... I will tell Miss Tang about this matter, too. Thank you Mr. Wei and the Wei family for your hospitality."
"Anyway, it's our honor to be able to serve Miss Tang." The lobby manager wiped his sweat, knowing that the beauty in front of him was not Miss Tang, which relieved his pressure a lot.
Xue Xiaohan waved her hand, "Okay, I understand, but I hope you won't disturb Miss Tang in the box, do you understand?"
"Of course! It's certain! It's certain!"
Xue Xiaohan stepped on high heels and left proudly.
Sister Ping, who was standing not far away and saw all this, suddenly wiped the cold sweat on her forehead.
Yes, she originally thought that Tang Xiaoxiao was just a lucky guy who relied on his face and support from others, but the scene just now completely overturned her perception of the stunning beauty in the box. From the look on the hotel lobby manager's face just now, From the scene where he looked at Xue Xiaohan in cold sweat and awe, it can be seen that Tang Xiaoxiao is definitely not simple! Xue Xiaohan is just a personal assistant, but he can be so powerful, so... what if Tang Xiaoxiao comes out in person
This hotel is a national chain. I heard that it is owned by a certain wealthy family. It can make a hotel lobby experience such awe. Who is Tang Xiaoxiao? !
Returning to the box, Xue Xiaohan walked to Tang Xiaoxiao, turned slightly sideways, and whispered to Tang Xiaoxiao, "Boss, that Supreme Card is completely free of charge. This hotel is the property of the Wei family in Donghai City."
"Yes, I understand." Tang Xiaoxiao responded and warned, "When you go out to pay bills in the future, it is best not to use VIP cards that can reveal your identity."
"Yes!" Xue Xiaohan responded.
Thinking of the Wei family in Donghai City, Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but have a headache. I'm afraid Wei Yanmo will be here soon, right? Thinking of the endless pursuit methods of those rich and noble young masters, even she had a headache.
Sister Ping walked in and whispered to Cao Hao. Of course, she was a smart woman and did not tell him everything. She just told Cao Hao that Tang Xiaoxiao asked her assistant Xue Xiaohan to settle the bill for the meal.
"Xiaoxiao, you girl, you actually started playing this trick with me!" After learning that Tang Xiaoxiao had settled tonight's bill, Cao Hao couldn't help but laughed angrily, "We agreed that it would be me today. Treat me, don’t you even give me this chance?”
Tang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips in amusement, raised the juice on her hand, and said with an unpretentious smile, "Director Cao, I am also a director after all. Just give me a chance to perform. You also want this little money." Grab it from me, and I will definitely let you pay the bill at the next celebration banquet. It is my first time to cooperate with so many friends, and I am the youngest, so it is normal to pay the bill once. "
"You girl, you have only just debuted, and you are squandering money like this." Cao Hao was a little helpless. When he first cooperated with Tang Xiaoxiao, he knew that this girl would be absolutely generous, but he didn't expect that she would be so clever and use this dinner to exchange money. Come to the good opinion of the main staff of the crew.
Tang Xiaoxiao had never gone out for this meal, so the person who paid the bill was obviously the only one who went out just now, the personal assistant. Everyone knows that eating people has a short mouth. This Tang Dynasty beauty actually took the initiative to pay the bill, which surprised the crew a little, and then their mentality became much calmer. The little resentment just now He had long been wiped out by this detail, but his favorable impression of Tang Xiaoxiao and the three of them had greatly increased.
Just when a group of people were having a good time, Cao Hao suddenly received a call. His face changed slightly, and his expression was a little reluctant. He glanced at the crowd for a few times, and finally his eyes fell on Tang Xiaoxiao. He said with a wry smile, "Xiaoxiao. , let’s leave first.”
Seeing Cao Hao's helpless look, Tang Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter, Director Cao?"
"The biggest star of our drama is here. He called me just now and asked me to pick him up at the airport." Cao Hao looked a little helpless.
"The biggest star is here?" Tang Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, stood up, and ordered to the two people around him, "Xiaohan, you can have dinner with everyone here. After dinner, there are KTVs, nightclubs and the like nearby. You take everyone out for fun, and the expenses will be charged to me. Mu Li, come with me."
"Yeah." Mu Li responded. With his cold temperament, he was really not suitable to stay in such an occasion.
The two great directors of the crew apologized to everyone, then walked out, hailed a taxi, and headed straight to the airport.
Sitting in the taxi, Tang Xiaoxiao's face showed a hint of displeasure, and she said angrily, "Director Cao, who is the leading actor in this drama? He is really a big name, and he actually has to trouble the two crew members. When the director went to pick him up at the airport, did he really think he was an international superstar? Even if Yu Lingye came, he wouldn't have such a big air, would he? "
Cao Hao smiled helplessly, "Otherwise, do you think that being a director is really that easy? The situation in mainland China is more complicated, and things like human nature and sophistication are unavoidable. Sometimes, even if an artist slanders the director, you still have to endure it. ... There is no way, who let others represent the box office and popularity? Xiaoxiao, there are many big names in this movie. You have a straight temper, so you'd better endure it and don't conflict with them. Investors are looking at this. We only invest in the reputation of artists. If we really offend these artists, to be honest, even I would be in trouble."
Tang Xiaoxiao frowned.
"Just like today's incident, the first protagonist of this drama is Lu Yanfan. I gave him the phone number of the assistant director, and also asked the assistant director to pick him up at the airport. As a result, people thought that the assistant director was not high enough, so I gave him the I called and asked me to pick him up at the airport..." As he said that, Cao Hao shook his head helplessly, "Now Lu Yanfan's fame and reputation are at their peak, and investors are only willing to invest because of his face. I'm proud of him. A director who has been in the entertainment industry for so many years has to pretend to be a grandson in front of him! These days, if you have money, you are the boss."
"It's Lu Yanfan..." Tang Xiaoxiao narrowed his eyes, and the cold light in his eyes flashed away.
The white-eyed wolf who pushed him downstairs with one hand...
When we arrived at the airport, it was already late at night. The airport was deserted and there were not many people. There was still a bit of chill in the north in April. Tang Xiaoxiao was wearing less clothes and was shivering a little from the cold. Seeing this, Mu Li unbuttoned his clothes, took them off, put them on Tang Xiaoxiao, and then found a corner to stand silently.
Feeling a touch of warmth, Tang Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment and looked at Mu Li stupidly. Is this the second person to put on a coat for him? The same scene happened at this time last year. That time I went to the airport to pick up Mu Li with my brother, but this time...
It turns out that the first person who gave me warmth is already so far away.
Noticing the interaction between the two people, Cao Hao chuckled and said, "Xiaoxiao, your brother does care about you."
"I'm not her brother!" Mu Li corrected him with an unhappy look on his face and turned his head awkwardly.
The three of them waited until after one o'clock in the morning, when a strange yet familiar figure finally walked slowly surrounded by a group of people. The man walking in the middle was wearing a windbreaker and sunglasses, revealing a handsome and handsome face. More than a dozen suitcases were dragged behind by several assistants, and were flanked by seven or eight stern-looking bodyguards. There were more than twenty people in this group, which was extremely conspicuous in the deserted airport.
The handsome young man standing in the middle is none other than Lu Yanfan!
Seeing Lu Yanfan appear, Cao Hao quickly stepped forward and said, "Xiao Lu, you are finally here. Haha, is the plane delayed?"
Lu Yanfan nodded slightly, took off his sunglasses, exposed his handsome cheeks, and said something that was so annoying that he couldn't bear to die, "Director Cao, the flight was fine, it wasn't delayed. It's just that I was in Beijing when I called you. Record the show.”
Cao Hao was almost furious at these words. Damn it, you were recording a show in Beijing, so you asked me to pick you up at the airport. I've been waiting here for four hours... Do you think you're too disrespectful to me as a director? Already? !
Tang Xiaoxiao sneered in his heart. Sure enough, without Ye Yuxin's control, Lu Yanfan's attitude became more and more arrogant.
The assistant standing aside glanced at Ang Xiaoxiao and Mu Li, frowned, and said unhappily, "Director Cao, why are these people here to pick up the plane? Only these two people are here, and there are so many luggages. Who will carry the luggage?" ah?"
Nima, do you dare to be more arrogant? !
The two directors came to greet you personally, but you actually disliked the lack of people and complained that no one would carry your luggage. Do you need the entire crew to greet you here, and then all of them carry your luggage as followers? ! You brought more than 20 bodyguards, assistants, nannies and attendants. Can’t you carry your luggage
Cao Hao suppressed the anger in his heart, ignored the assistant's arrogant attitude, put on a smile, and introduced to Lu Yanfan, "Xiao Lu, this is Director Tang..."
Just when he was halfway through speaking, Lu Yanfan frowned, and the assistant from before hurriedly stepped forward, pushed Tang Xiaoxiao away, and said arrogantly, "Hey! You should stay away from us, Afan, and be careful of the impact! Don’t always try to use our Affan’s fame to create scandals and hype!”
The moment he was pushed away by the little assistant, Mu Li's face turned green. If Tang Xiaoxiao hadn't held him back, Mu Li might have had a knife.
