The terrifying newcomer rises, ignores clout, the Spring Festival Galaâ¦.
Combining this with Xu Qingyanâs recent performance, it was obvious he wasnât here for the first time, not his first day on rotation as a PD. With a bit of deduction, one could figure out a few things.
She was scrolling through her phone when Xu Qingyan returned, signaling the two to follow.
âOkay.â Luo Yuexiu nodded.
Xu Qingyan looked a bit surprised when he heard this and couldnât help but turn to look at her. Just ten minutes before, she had been somewhat resistant, but now she seemed quite cooperative.
âHmm.â
On the other side, Zou Lewei was somewhat irritable, as he had been watching Xu Qingyan for a while. Werenât they saying that Luo Yuexiu was difficult to deal with, that this older woman was notoriously difficult and loved to make trouble?
Damn it, acting like a damn cat, must be crazy!
He watched as Xu Qingyan led the way, with Luo Yuexiu in tow, and couldnât help feeling so irritated his teeth itched. After a momentâs thought, he decided to follow, heading towards the reporting hall.
After waiting the whole afternoon, the reporting performance was almost the last one to proceed.
Hearing that Luo Yuexiu was performing, the room filled with people inside and out.
The head director Ji Shiâan and his group arrived, with He Guojin and Lu Liangsheng also in attendance, not keeping watch over every production team.
âIs the singer ready?â
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyan didnât respond directly but glanced at Luo Yue, who nodded. Only then did he shout towards the direction of the directors.
âReady, everythingâs okay here.â
Luo Yuexiu performed without any issues; although an actor, her singing foundation was surprisingly solid. Almost as good as Xu Qingyan, a third-rate singer, which was already very impressive.
The atmosphere in the entertainment industry is very impetuous, with young and beautiful newcomers frantically pushing to get ahead. They harbor the myth of overnight fame and try to shove the old-timers down the mountain.
At the very least, she was an actor and could sing, not just a lip-syncing warrior.
After the performance, Luo Yuexiu bowed towards the directors and intuitively gauged her performance from their expressions. She was waiting to exit when the PD should have come over.
But after waiting for half a minute, she realized Xu Qingyan hadnât come.
Turning her head, she saw Xu Qingyan surrounded by a few directors, and her heart skipped a beat. Indeed, even though he could have made a name for himself, he chose to work here.
Itâs nice to have a background, even getting fast-track treatment at the Spring Festival Gala. A sub-venue this year, the main venue next yearâ¦. How come some people are born so lucky, they have it all.
She bit her fingernails, devoid of pain.
Not far away, Zou Lewei was downright stunned. He was no stranger to the head director. In fact, Ji Shiâan had also shown great appreciation for him and mentioned he had potential.
No way, what does he have? Iâve never heard of any connections he might have.
Damn it, mustâve spent money!
Xu Qingyan had been ready to finish work and leave with Luo Yuexiu. But he was stopped halfway when Ji Shiâan called for himâand he couldnât just ignore it.
Looking back, he saw Luo Yuexiu still standing there waiting. He felt a bit uneasy; heâd heard the leading actress was picky, and waiting even a half day might set her off.
He hadnât made any mistakes earlier in the day, but if he left her alone for ten minutes now⦠Unthinkable. Maybe it was just a simple question, after all, directors werenât that idle.
âHow have you been these past two days? Getting used to it?â Ji Shiâan asked with a smile, his small stature contrasting with his strong presence, dressed in a loose casual sweater.
No different from those middle-aged men fishing by the river in the nearby park.
âNot bad, Iâm adjusting well.â Xu Qingyan smiled, yet he couldnât help but look back at Luo Yuexiu againâit was his job for the day, and heâd be in trouble if he abandoned it.
âWhatâs the matter? Really going smoothly?â Seeing him look back, Ji Shiâan also looked toward Luo Yuexiu, âSome singers, well⦠you have to be careful with your communication techniques.â
âItâs been fine, the artist has been very cooperative.â Xu Qingyan told the truth.
âOh?â Ji Shiâan seemed somewhat surprised, as Luo Yuexiu was known for her troublesome personality and quick temper.
He had expected some complaints, but instead, he got a report of a smooth process.
However, it seemed to be going really well up to now; Luo Yuexiu hadnât caused any trouble here.
At first, he hadnât felt much, but now he began to think that Xu Qingyan might really have something special. Even the most difficult artists became âvery cooperativeâ with him.
Seeing Xu Qingyan and the directors looking towards her one after another, Luo Yuexiu smiled faintly. But inside, she was embarrassed and more convinced of his backing.
Without guidance from someone influential, how could he have shot to fame beginning with a romance show? Then, at the peak of his popularity, he suddenly disappeared and switched to working behind the scenes at the Spring Festival Gala.
Thereâs no such thing as a nobody, just carefully packaged artists.
On the side, a young assistant whispered, âSister Yue, why isnât that PD taking care of us? He ran off to talk with the directors, thatâs really⦠How could he do that!â
âIâm going to report thisâ¦.â@@novelbin@@
âNo need, letâs wait.â Luo Yuexiu remained calm, her shoulders relaxing, âDonât rush, he will probably come over soon.â
At her words, the young assistant looked at Luo Yuexiu as if she had heard something incredible, her face full of surprise.
Since her injury, the usually explosive Sister Yue was suddenly so easy-going today?
Ever since she got injured, her temper was volatile, going through three assistants in a month. Only someone desperate for money like her would⦠But overall, things had been okay.
Helping her put on shoes wasnât too embarrassing; she was just doing her job. Just had to be careful of her lumbar spine usually, not letting her stand for too long.
If she stood too long, sheâd start shouting, same if she couldnât find someone to change her shoes. It was her first time seeing Luo Yue this patient.
Not just her, almost everyone present glanced surreptitiously in the direction of the directors. Even those exiting slowed down their steps, stealing glances at Xu Qingyan.
