Rebirth in Hengdian

Chapter 7

CHAPTER 7

The male lead appeared

After eating breakfast, the two took a taxi to the company.

　　The reason why she didn't drive was because that car was a Lamborghini. Even if the car was lying in the garage now, Li Zixi didn't dare to drive it to the company. It's too showy. As a newcomer, no matter how good your background is, it is better to keep a low profile.

　　When she arrived at Wang Jie's office, she was on the phone. Wang Jie motioned them to sit on the sofa. While she was on the phone, she looked at Li Zixi from time to time. Putting down the phone, Wang Jie smiled and asked: "Xixi, how does it feel to film?"

　　Li Zixi smiled and said, "Thank you Wang Jie for caring. Although it was a bit unpleasant at first, the feeling of filming is still pretty good. "

　　She raised her eyebrows when she heard Li Zixi's answer. This newcomer felt different from before. She knows that this newcomer has a relationship with the company's senior management, but she is not very clear about what the relationship is. She has always valued the strength of an artist, whether it is the strength of acting or the strength of their backer, as long as she has the ability, she has good resources.

　　The person concerned must be taken care of more or less, but if the new comer is *unable to support Ah Dou, she can do nothing. She would really look down on someone who holds a handful of winning cards and can still lose to the ground.

[*unable to support Ah Dou – someone weak and incompetent]

　　To be honest, when she first met this newcomer, she was not optimistic. In her experience of ups and downs on the entertainment industry for more than ten years, she has long developed a pair of precise vision. Of course, sometimes intuition and experience can be wrong, such as the person in front of her.

　　She heard that the newcomer was scolded by the director yesterday. She almost quarreled with the director and her script was stolen. Have to say that if it were not for her acting skills to turn the tide, she would really look down on this newcomer. No matter how much background she has, if she's hopelessly stupid, it's useless.

　　Thinking of this, Wang Jie smiled and said, "That's good. Yesterday was your first filming. It's fine to shoot a few more times in the future. Director Shen is a strict director. He scolded you to show that you still have room for improvement. This kind of thing will happen again in the future, be patient and hone your acting skills." With that, Wang Jie took out the folder from the drawer and handed it to her.

　　"This is an advertisement for green tea. Your partner is Zhang Ruoyang, a popular boy. The day after tomorrow, will your schedule be okay? If there's any conflict, please take time off. Go to the designated location to shoot at ten o'clock the next morning. Remember a thousand times, don't be late."

　 When Chen Pingping heard Zhang Ruoyang's name, she immediately stepped forward to receive the folder and said: "Wang Jie, don't worry, Xixi is free that day. I will definitely ask Xixi to get up in advance, and we will never be late.

　　"Yes, you can rest assured." Li Zixi heard Chen Pingping's answer and smiled and said to Wang Jie: "Thank you Wang Jie, I will take a good shot." She thought to herself, it's nice to have a slow-witted assistant, at least for now. It is very unlikely that she will be exposed.

　　Wang Jie nodded and said, "Okay, you should go back first. Take a good look at the content of the script and be prepared."

　　On the way back, Chen Pingping was still chatting about her love for Zhang Ruoyang's face. Zhang Ruoyang? Who is that? Li Zixi felt that after going home, apart from reading the script, she would also search for Zhang Ruoyang.

　　When she entered the elevator, she happened to meet again the man from yesterday. A lot of things were moved this time.

　　The man smiled at Li Zixi. Li Zixi also smiled at him and turned around. Chen Pingping watched the interaction between the two and fell silent, and did not speak anymore.

　　When the elevator was approaching the fifth floor, the man behind suddenly spoke: "Well, beauty, hello, do you live in 2301 or 2302?"

　　Chen Pingping's face immediately scrunched up when she heard these words. She gave him a murderous look. Li Zixi frowned as she looked at him, as if she didn't understand why he asked this question.

　　Seeing the murderous aura of the two beauties in front of him, the man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong. Because we just moved here recently, it might be a bit noisy these days. I'm afraid of troubling you, so I asked."

　　After he said this, Li Zixi's brows tightened, and said: "You are from 2401, right? It was a bit noisy last night." When the man heard this, he immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, sorry. In just these two days, it should be done tomorrow, and it will never happen again in the future."

　　When Li Zixi heard the man apologize, she calmed down a bit and said, "It doesn't matter, but I hope it will be quiet today."

　　After the man returned home, he immediately said angrily: "Dong *Ge, where's *Ah Chen? This liar said that no one answered the door yesterday. Clearly there are people living downstairs?"

[*Ge – older brother]

[*Ah – prefix used to one's name to form a nickname usually used to express familiarity like 'Ah Chen' and 'Ah Li']

　　The man named Ah Chen came out of the toilet and said, "There was really no one when I went there in the afternoon. You can't blame me. "

　　Ah Li said:" Who will believe you, ah? I blame you, there were beautiful women who complained. "

　　A nosy Ah Chen came over and asked: "Downstairs occupant is really beautiful? How beautiful? "

　　Ah Li glanced at him and said: "Very beautiful! Who told you to be lazy! If you went yesterday, you must have seen."

　　Ah Chen said silently, "I really went yesterday. Dong Ge, you believe me." He felt a disapproving gaze, and immediately stopped speaking and became serious.

　　Ye Handong frowned and said, "If you can't finish it in the afternoon, wait until tomorrow. Don't do it at night."

　　Ah Chen and Ah Li nodded and agreed. They are both Ye Handong's assistants. The boss has spoken, they must obey.

　　After Li Zixi returned home, the first thing she did was to go to the study to read the script. Skimming it roughly, the script is very simple.

　　The theme is secret love. Drinking a sip of green tea is like finding a secret love, sweet and bitter. In the very simple plot, the female lead has always been secretly in love with the male lead, observing the male lead secretly, and dare not confess. While the male lead was away, she'll quietly put a bottle of green tea in the male lead's drawer.

　　When the male lead came back from playing, he saw the green tea in the drawer and took a sip. At first, he frowned, then he felt refreshed. He inadvertently looked back at the female lead, who also looked at him shyly. The last line is: Secret love is like green tea. Confess if you like him. 

　　In this advertisement, the dress is simple, not too beautiful, and it gives pure looks. Just keep her eyes on the male lead, and it's best to show shy and obscure feelings.

　　In order to cooperate better with the male protagonist and to find the feeling of secret love, she decided to search Zhang Ruoyang on the Internet.
