C3 Buried Nova
Chi Shaojie hung up Fu Yao's call decisively. What did it have to do with him that she didn't play the commercial? Did he really think he could be threatened just by doing that?
The phone rang repeatedly in the dressing room. After the stylist finished his hairstyle, she said carefully, "About that, it's done, Mr. Chi. I'll go out to see if the female lead needs any makeup."
After he left, Chi Shaojie answered the phone, "Hello?"
On the other side, Fu Yao was sobbing, "The reason why I can't act today is because I saw that piece of news and was in a terrible state. I can't act at all."
Chi Shaojie sighed, "Is that what you want to tell me? "Then I'll hang up."
"Wait."
Fu Yao's voice softened. "You really don't want to get back together?"
Chi Shaojie frowned, "At that time, you didn't think we were suitable. After splitting up, you took the opportunity to hype me up and I didn't have any excuse. We had a good time." "What? Did you embarrass yourself with your rich business boyfriend?"
"You … "How can you say that …"
Chi Shaojie looked outside the door, "Alright, do whatever you want. I'm going to start work soon."
As the stylist had said, Gu Xi was an extremely entertaining person, especially her eyes, which were very eye-catching in the camera. As the director clapped his hands, he said, "This girl is really a natural born actress. Look at her in the camera, she's completely different from the bad look she had just now."
Gu Xi's sister stood at the side with her arms crossed and said proudly, "Of course. Every time my sister finishes the commercial, everyone agrees. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to recommend her to replace Fu Yao. "I dare say that even if she's standing with Fu Yao, she would still not be inferior to her."
Vice Director nodded and said, "She's very photogenic and has the temperament of a chaser."
Gu Xi didn't hear these words. All these years, she had been working hard just to be reborn from her cocoon under the camera. As long as she thought of Chi Shaojie, the male lead of the play with her, she would be as excited as if she had been electrocuted. She was brimming with energy.
Chi Shaojie stood to the side and watched quietly for a while. His eyes gradually revealed an incredulous expression.
He had originally defined her as lacking talent but not lack of effort. However, this was clearly not the case. This seemingly unremarkable girl was clearly a combination of talent and hard work.
But after so many years, why had he never heard of the existence of such a character?
The showbiz industry, where new people had appeared and the rising star was supposed to be resplendent, had actually been buried for such a long time.
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang again. He impatiently handed it over to the assistant, "Answer it."
The assistant quickly took it and saw Fu Yao's name on the caller ID. "Hello, Miss Fu. Mr. Chi is currently on the stage and might not have the time to answer …" "What?!"
Chi Shaojie was about to ask what was wrong when the assistant ran to the director's side in panic, "Director, just now, just now Miss Fu Yao said that she was rushing here. She has no problem with this advertisement. It's done."
"Great!" The director and Vice Director both heaved a sigh of relief.
Originally, investors liked Fu Yao's reputation the most. If she didn't play, who knew how much effort she would have to put in to explain herself. The only one who felt sorry was Gu Xi. This girl might be able to become famous in the country with this advertisement.
Gu Xi was stunned. She stared blankly at her sister, then turned her gaze to Chi Shaojie with great difficulty.
Vice Director came forward and said, "Sorry, um, we will still pay for your advertisement fee today."
Gu Xi took off her coat. "No need." "I came to help elder sister in the first place."
His sister scolded him angrily, "This Fu Yao is messing around with people! In the future, our company will no longer recommend her! "Little sister, come with me. Big sister will give you another chance in the future."
Gu Xi was a bit absent-minded. This day, joy and sadness came too quickly. She didn't even have the chance to have a confrontation scene with Chi Shaojie before the filming ended in such a hurry.
Everyone on the set felt that it was a pity. Gu Xi was talented, but her reputation was too little. As for actors like her, there are still many left in A City. Everyone wouldn't look at you a few more times just because of your talent, and even more so, they wouldn't help you just because you were wronged.
Anything unfair would happen in the showbiz, and any chance success would also happen here. The audience's interests, the company's hype, the director's preference, all determine your fate at any time.
Clearly, they had long since gotten used to this sort of thing.
His sister placed Gu Xi on the stool and told her to take a rest first. She said in a low voice, "You did very well just now. The director and Vice Director both praise you greatly. There will definitely be a chance in the future. Don't worry."
