After Entering a Book, He Just Wants to be a Flower Vase
Chapter 27 How Could I Do That Kind of Thing
At seven o'clock that night, Jiang Dao followed Zhu Yao into a box in the hotel where he was staying.
It was already around 07:30 when Li Cheng and the big bosses of the capital entered the venue. There was not only one artist from Jiangdao, but also two other young actors from other companies. They were all in their early 20s. Be well-behaved and refreshing.
One of the investors who built the bridge for Galaxy Media was the third among the four big bosses present.But he is the most familiar with Li Cheng, so he speaks with confidence.
Although everyone knows that this kind of wine bureau is for resources, no one will talk about business directly at the beginning, and only find some beautiful food, romance and the like to start the conversation.
After drinking for three rounds, the topic of the few people on the table gradually led to the three artists present.
"Xiao Gu is a good kid."
Li Cheng was slightly tipsy from drinking, obviously not drunk yet, but his demeanor was completely different from that in the audition room at the beginning, his eyes fell on several artists, and he had more scrutiny and judgment than admiration.
"At first glance, he is obedient, refreshing, and sweet-looking... Although it will be difficult to support the protagonist in the future, the role of the popular male second is definitely no problem."
The male artist surnamed Gu who was sitting at the side immediately showed a sweet smile to Li Cheng: "Thank you Li Dao for the compliment! I am very lucky to be able to cooperate with you, and I am not greedy."
Li Cheng smiled, lifted his wine glass and raised it towards him.
Xiaogu immediately picked up the cup and took a big sip with a blushing face.
On the side, an investor surnamed Wang asked with a smile: "What about us? Director Li also commented?"
Li Cheng smiled and said, "Qi Jiayun... is actually not bad. It's just that the recognition is a little bit low, but he is still a good boy. If he can make a breakthrough in acting, he will have a bright future in the future."
Hearing this, Qi Jiayun raised his glass immediately: "Thank you, Teacher Li, I would like to toast you. You can do whatever you want!"
As he spoke, he raised his neck and poured down the full glass of wine.
Seeing him drinking wine like this, Li Cheng looked a little displeased, took a sip from the rim of the glass, put down the goblet, and turned his gaze to Jiang Dao.
Zhu Yao kicked Jiang Dao under the table.
Jiang Dao raised his eyes, and put down the half-bitten taro roll in his chopsticks reluctantly.
Li Cheng smiled: "Xiao Dao is straightforward, not at all pretentious."
Jiang Dao gave him a perfunctory smile: "Thank you."
Li Cheng held up the wine glass and shook it in his hand: "In terms of appearance, you are the most beautiful of the three today, and you have a good figure, and you don't look weak...Do you usually exercise regularly?"
Jiang Dao nodded: "Yes."
Li Cheng looked him up and down again, and smiled meaningfully: "With your looks, it may be difficult for you to play the leading role. You are too beautiful, but you are a bit evil, and it is not suitable for a decent person. On the contrary, if you play a villain, it is likely to give people a bad impression." Make a deeper impression."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jiang Dao to be polite, he took the initiative to raise his glass and raised his glass in Jiang Dao's direction.
Jiang Dao picked up the wine glass, found it was empty, and reached for the bottle not far away.
Zhu Yao reminded him in a low voice: "Drink less, be careful with this kind of drinking..."
Jiang Dao turned a deaf ear, took the wine bottle and refilled half a glass, and like Qi Jiayun, drank it down in one gulp.
Li Chengzheng paused for a moment while tasting the wine, and immediately put down the wine glass, but his expression was unrecognizable.
After chatting for a while, the topic slowly opened up, and the wine drank more and more.
Zhu Yao excused that his artist had a schedule tomorrow, so he blocked Jiang Dao a lot, and his cheeks flushed from drinking.
While eating, Jiang Dao observed Li Cheng's state, and inadvertently made eye contact with him a few times.In the end, Li Cheng even blinked at him when the two of them looked at each other.
It appears that the time has come.
Jiang Dao put down his chopsticks and asked Zhu Yao: "I'm a little bored, let's go to the terrace to get some air."
It took Zhu Yao a while to understand this sentence, and he frowned and asked, "Drink too much?"
Jiang Dao smiled and said, "That's not true, it's because I ate too much."
At this time, the investor that Galaxy Media had found took Zhu Yao to drink again. Zhu Yao had no choice but to say to Jiang Dao, "Go and come back soon", and then turned to deal with the investor.
Jiang Dao left the private room, strolled to the end of the corridor, stood on the large terrace, silently looked at the city lights under his feet, and calculated how long it would take for Li Cheng to come out.
But in just 2 minutes, he heard footsteps behind him, followed by Li Cheng's pretended deep chuckle: "Where are you looking at the scenery?"
Jiang Dao turned around and licked the corner of his mouth towards Li Cheng.
Li Cheng smiled and said, "Isn't it too perfunctory?"
Leaning against the railing, Jiang Dao moved his eyes to the side, and the corner of his mouth smiled with a trace of mockery: "I didn't want to... I mean, I didn't expect... I didn't expect to get the role."
Hearing what he said, a trace of surprise flashed across Li Cheng's face.
But that emotion was fleeting. He squinted his eyes, looked Jiang Dao up and down for a moment, and said, "No wonder you were so perfunctory during the audition."
Jiang Dao lowered his eyelashes and said in a low voice: "How could it be... the company's arrangement, how dare I mess around..."
Li Cheng smiled, as if he knew something in his mind.He moved closer, and said in a low voice, "Are you scared now? When you deliberately wanted to lose the election, why weren't you afraid that Mr. Liu would turn his face?"
Jiang Dao was surprised and looked at Li Cheng with a moment of panic in his eyes.Immediately afterwards, he quickly looked away, pursed his mouth, and grasped the railing with both hands, his fingertips turned white.
His flustered and nervous appearance obviously pleased Li Cheng.
Li Cheng laughed again, and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell you Mr. Liu. Besides, I don't like to force people. In this kind of thing, I would like you to feel the most comfortable...Old Liu He understands my preferences, but unfortunately, he doesn't know that I don't like twisted melons."
Hearing this sentence, Jiang Dao immediately understood—the senior management of Galaxy Media absolutely understood Li Cheng's character.As for asking him to audition and arrange banquets, whether it was a deliberate arrangement or a success or failure attempt, these are not important.
He already understood that in the eyes of Galaxy Media, he was just a commodity, not a person.
Seeing that Jiang Dao said nothing, the corners of his mouth gradually turned into a hint of sarcasm, his demeanor became more crazy and uninhibited, and Li Cheng's eyes became brighter.
He licked his lips and changed the subject: "But don't rush to refuse, at least I can promise that if you want, you can increase the time you appear in the drama. Besides, I can give you better things in the next drama." opportunity. How about it, consider it?"
After getting the answer he wanted, Ejima didn't bother to continue acting.
He sneered, and squinted at Li Cheng from the corner of his eyes, his gaze was like a sharp knife, picking out this wretched man dressed in literature and art from top to bottom.
Li Cheng subconsciously swallowed, his hand holding the railing trembled slightly.
Before Jiang Dao could speak, there was a sudden sound of high-heeled shoes stepping on the ground in the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, the only female investor at the meeting just now appeared on the terrace, looking at the two of them with a smile.
"Hey, are you hiding here for leisure?"
The beautiful woman who still had the charm said, stepped forward, took out a lady's cigarette from her handbag, and threw the lighter to Jiang Dao casually, with a nonchalant tone: "Chu Yinlong said that you are his friend, it's really rare."
Jiang Dao knew that this beautiful investor was Lu Zhengrong whom Chu Yinlong had mentioned to him, probably because he saw that neither he nor Li Cheng was in the private room, so he hurried to find out to save her.
He was a little funny in his heart, but Jiang Dao didn't show it at all. He helped Lu Zhengrong light a cigarette, and asked obediently, "Why is it so rare? Teacher Chu has many friends."
Lu Zhengrong smiled: "He has a lot of friends, but almost all of them are older than him, and there are few people of his age, let alone young people... You are really the only friend he recognizes under the age of 30."
As she said that, she paused for a while, and then smiled even brighter: "And I heard that he invited you to participate in his movie, but you rejected it?"
Jiang Dao: ...
Is being rejected something to be proud of?
Why does Chu Yinlong talk to everyone he sees?
On the side, Li Cheng's face changed slightly, but he quickly changed into his usual gentle smile: "It's a good opportunity to cooperate with the actor, Kojima, don't miss it."
Jiang Dao looked at him and returned the same smile: "Thank you, Mr. Li."
"It's been a long time since I came out, so I'll go back first."
After finishing speaking, Li Cheng quickly turned and left. When he turned the corner, he subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
On the terrace, Lu Zheng looked at Jiang Dao for a moment, with a strange expression on his face: "Why do I feel that instead of being taken advantage of, you have the upper hand?"
Jiang Dao couldn't help laughing out loud.
After a while, he said, "Anyway, thank you for helping me."
"You don't need to thank me, since Chu Yinlong has entrusted you, it will be easy for you to help you."
Lu Zhengrong took a puff of cigarette slowly, and said again: "Even if your company deliberately arranged this matter today, I don't think your manager knows about it. He was drunk by Lao Wang, otherwise it's not his turn." Come out and find you."
"Yes, I see." Jiang Dao nodded in response, "Then I will go back first."
"Go ahead." Lu Zheng said calmly, "Don't worry about Li Cheng, he still has a wink."
When Jiang Dao left, Lu Zhengrong turned on the phone and typed with a smile: "Where did you find this kid? It's really interesting. I don't need my help at all."
Chu Yinlong's reply arrived almost immediately: "As long as he is fine."
Lu Zhengrong: "It's not just that he's fine, he didn't know what he said, but he frightened Li Cheng so much that he was mostly sober."
Chu Yinlong: "Is the banquet over?"
Chu Yinlong: "Is he not drunk?"
Lu Zhengrong stared at the phone and gave a "tsk" in disgust.
Finally, he replied kindly: "It's almost over. He drank a lot, but he didn't look drunk."
At the end, I added another one: "This kid seems to be a good drinker! When we have a small gathering, you can call him up and see if he can fight with me."
Chu Yinlong: "Impossible."
Chu Yinlong: "Let my little uncle know that you are drinking again, or fight with the person I brought back, and will tie me to his research institute and cut me up."
Lu Zhengrong: "It's really boring."
Lu Zhengrong: "However, you found such a young friend, nine years younger than you, does your mother know?"
Chu Yinlong: "?"
Before Lu Zhengrong could reply, Chu Yinlong sent another series of messages:
"You think too much, it's not that kind of relationship, it's just ordinary friends."
"The pastor saw his potential and wanted to cultivate it. I also think he has good talent."
"That's all."
Lu Zhengrong sneered, and replied: "If I hadn't personally caught you hiding under the quilt in the middle of the night and peeking at men's pornographic books, I might still believe your statement."
Chu Yinlong: "..."
Chu Yinlong: "It's almost ten years ago, don't mention it?"
Chu Yinlong withdrew a message.
Chu Yinlong: "I believe in Buddhism, how could I do such a thing."
