Qi Hongcheng suddenly realized that the mistake he made in one thought also led to a more serious consequence.
Because he was at the banquet, he didn't see Chi Ying's email in time.
Yesterday, he was indeed nervous about this matter. But before he knew it, he forgot about it.
Chi Ying's absence means that Mr. Lu's investment is gone.
This is not a return to before liberation, what is it
Qi Hongcheng dialed Chi Ying's number without hesitation.
"Beep beep the number you dialed has been turned off."
The indifferent and official mechanical sound kept hitting his eardrums, which was quite ironic.
Qi Hongcheng was sweating profusely.
If asking Chi Ying to audition was a simple matter, how could Mr. Lu pay such a high price in exchange.
There is no reason for a newcomer to give up the role of the second female lead in a TV series with great potential.
The successive twists and turns made him panic. Qi Hongcheng got out of the car weakly and his steps were chaotic.
He took the elevator to the audition location, where most of the actresses were already there.
Most of them are very beautiful. This is Qi Hongcheng's most beautiful audition since his career as a director.
There are not only 18th-tier unknowns, but also some famous little stars.
The intensity of competition can be imagined.
Almost everyone is sure that Sashimi will explode in the coming year.
Only Qi Hongcheng knew that without Lu Jingyan's investment, no matter how high-quality a star was, he could not make up for the shortcomings caused by Peiyu's financial shortcomings.
The tremendous pressure was about to crush his nerves.
Shu Bai also came.
Among the brightly dressed female celebrities, she is not very eye-catching.
But she didn't look as inferior as usual, and her timid eyes in the past unexpectedly revealed some confidence and pride.
This is the confidence that can only be gained through sacrifice.
Because she had foreseen the outcome, she felt less inferior.
The highest level of Oshi headquarters, the president's office.
The decoration here is mainly black, simple and elegant, and meticulous.
Lu Jingyan's face was cold and serious, and he stared at the pop-up window that popped up on the computer screen.
In the eyes as deep as ancient wells, boundless secret anger boiled.
That was real-time monitoring of the audition location.
No matter in the corridor or indoors, there was no sign of Chi Ying.
The great loss clenched his heart.
Cold pain in chest.
The air pressure in the office was horribly low. Jiang Chong stared at the screen seriously with a serious expression:
"Qi Hongcheng has been on the phone and looks very anxious. Is something wrong with Miss Chi?"
Almost the moment Jiang Chong said "something happened," Lu Jingyan's body trembled, and he quickly clicked on a black anchor icon on the desktop.
Immediately, a huge city map appeared on the screen.
Jiang Chong knew it. On this map, he could directly locate the coordinates of Chi Ying's mobile phone.
"Mr. Lu, you, you?" He was shocked and incoherent for a moment.
Jiang Chong felt that this was inappropriate, but he couldn't think of any reason for a while.
But at this moment, the positioning anchor is dusty.
Lu Jingyan whispered: "Shut down the phone."
His magnetic voice became hoarse and tight due to his emotional fluctuations, making people feel heartbroken.
Jiang Chong was shocked and worried.
It was him who underestimated Miss Chi.
From Mr. Lu's unusual conversation at the dinner, he should know that Chi Ying and Mr. Lu must have had some kind of bond.
It's just that he has never discovered it after following Mr. Lu for so many years.
Lu Jingyan's face was tense, and he quickly sent two messages on WeChat.
"Where are you"
"Please reply to get angry"
Then, he dialed Qi Hongcheng's phone number without hesitation: "Has Chi Ying come to audition?"
"
"Ms. Lu, Mr. Lu" Qi Hongcheng was shocked when he saw the call. His hand trembling when he picked up the phone, "Ms. Chi didn't come today because she had something to do. I arranged another audition time for her." "
During the surveillance, Qi Hongcheng was panicked and his steps were weak and chaotic.
Lu Jingyan changed the subject, "She asked for leave in advance."
"Yes."
Lu Jingyan sneered, "That's good."
Qi Hongcheng smiled flatteringly, "Don't worry, Mr. Lu."
After the call ended, Jiang Chong shook his head, "Qi Hongcheng is unreliable."
"Of course I know." Lu Jingyan tapped his slender fingers gently on the table, his dark eyes exuding the dangerous aura of a predator, "Wait a moment."
Jiang Chongqin broke into a cold sweat.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Jingyan added: "Thoroughly investigate the audition locations of all media companies and studios."
He really wanted to know what audition would be enough to make her give up the opportunity he had created for her.
Shu Bai calmed down and opened the door, but found that Qi Hongcheng was not looking at her at that moment.
He seemed distracted and his eyes wandered.
Qi Hongcheng's indecision made her face turn pale uncontrollably.
Shu Bai bit his lower lip in confusion and forced himself into the state.
What she is best at is tragic drama.
But it’s not so much the acting skills as it is the character.
Her inferiority complex and cowardice grew deep in her bones.
Crazier and more intense than the average person.
The feeling of being born to be suppressed by others has been with her like a nightmare, from birth to adulthood.
She couldn't tell where that feeling came from, but it enveloped her whole body without leaving any trace.
Qi Hongcheng raised his head, completely stunned.
Shu Bai's eyes were red and touching.
Tears rolled down like broken beads.
The inferiority complex and unwillingness in her eyes were not even remotely fake.
At that moment, he couldn't tell whether Shu Bai on the bed was acting out, or whether Shu Bai at this moment was still immersed in the pain of last night.
All he knew was that he was heartbroken.
Lu Jingyan postponed all meetings and watched everything happening in the audition room expressionlessly.
It wasn't until the last actor's audition was over that he began to review the documents piled up around him.
He is very busy.
But he has adapted to the endless hours of work.
Jiang Chong felt that Mr. Lu seemed to be a tireless person.
In the evening, Chi Ying led Chi Cheng home.
She turned on her phone and was surprised to find dozens of incoming call reminders.
She probably wasn't famous enough to ask Director Qi to make so many phone calls.
It's just a recommendation from Song Qingfeng.
Chi Ying was still confused. The next second, the call came in again.
"Chi Ying, you didn't come to the audition today."
"Well, I had something to do and I didn't bring my phone with me. I'm very sorry."
"Whenever you are free, come here alone."
Chi Ying was silent for a moment and said, "Next Tuesday afternoon."
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
"Thank you, Director Qi."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Ying was still in a trance. Because of the excitement, her cheeks were stained with a faint blush.
is that true
Does she still have a chance to audition
The clock turned to nine o'clock, and Lu Jingyan still had many things to deal with.
There is no news about Jiang Chong's investigation.
Until the breathing light of the mobile phone comes on blinkingly
Chi Ying: What’s wrong? What happened to Mr. Yue
Chi Ying: I went out to play today. I didn’t bring my mobile phone. I’m sorry. I’m so sad.
Lu Jingyan raised his eyebrows and his eyes became cold and gloomy.
what did she say
Go out to play
