Chapter 264 Investors
In response, Jiang Bai simply replaced the chopsticks with a new pair and said calmly:
"If you cry again, I'll deliberately pick my nose in front of that general during filming!"
"Not only did I pick my nose, I also performed a hip-wiggling dance in public!"
"I'll shatter your General Zhou's illusions on the spot, believe it or not?!"
Upon hearing this, the incessant weeping in his mind abruptly ceased.
[Zhang Yan (feeling wronged): "That vulgar man! Waaaaah, my General Zhou, waaaaah... I've loved him for so long, and I finally get to see him, but I can't feel him at all, sigh..."]
"Alright, alright, stop wallowing in self-pity."
Jiang Bai's tone softened, "For tomorrow's scene, help me get into character, and I'll let you look at the general a few more times, okay?"
[Zhang Yan (instantly perking up): "Really? Then could you please not wear such a cool and aloof makeup tomorrow? I'd like to put a little pink flower in my temple..."]
"Get lost! Don't even think about it!"
"This makeup is supposed to be the character of 'The Coldest Flower in the Han Palace,' why are you wearing pink flowers? Are you trying to apply for the role of Dou Yifang in a TV series?"
[Zhang Yan (playfully): "You're so boring... Humph, I'm ignoring you. I'm going to grind ink for the General in my dreams."]
[Zhang Yan (joyfully): Anyway, thank you for letting me see General Zhou.]
"Oh, now you're not calling me rude?"
Jiang Bai was amused.
Although this little personality keeps chattering in my head all day long, sometimes wanting to mend the general's armor, sometimes wanting to dance the folding fan dance in front of the main hall.
The noise made Jiang Bai want to buy a headband to put on himself.
But it must be said that having this "self" making noise in his head actually made him feel less lonely.
More importantly, Zhang Yan is a despicable person; she'll disappear after the show is over.
She would never see General Zhou again.
Jiang Bai shook his head. Why did he still feel a little sad?
What a joke! Would he be sad for such a despicable person?!
.......
Just as Jiang Bai and Zhang Yan were bickering amongst themselves.
Suddenly, a series of extremely synchronized engine roars came from the entrance of the studio.
Followed by.
A row of gleaming black luxury cars lined up in front of the film crew's office.
The way they were there made you think some international dignitary was coming to inspect the country.
This book is first published on 111k.com, providing you with a reading experience without errors or disordered chapters.
Inside the film studio.
Yu Zheng, who was directing the stage crew to move props, was somewhat dazed when he saw this scene.
This car looks just like the cars owned by those guys who invest in me.
Yu Zheng squinted and took a closer look, almost dropping the script in his hand.
It really is the investor's car!
Normally, only one of these bigwigs would show up, but today it feels like the entire Kyoto Chamber of Commerce has moved out.
Never mind all that, we have to treat them well!
He quickly shoved the teapot into the assistant director's hand and jogged over to greet him, his old face beaming with smiles that made his wrinkles appear like flowers.
"Ouch!"
"General Manager Gao, General Manager Li, Director Zhang... all you executives, it's so hot outside, why didn't you give me a heads-up so I could have sent a car to pick you up!"
These people ignored him, their eyes not lingering on Yu Zheng for even half a second.
Upon entering, the "full-room facial recognition" mode was immediately activated.
"Where's Bai Zhi? Where is our Bai Zhi daughter?"
"Hey Lao Wang, don't push! I discovered Teacher Bai Zhi on Douyin first, I've reserved this photo spot!"
"......"
After looking around and not seeing Jiang Baizhi, the group turned their attention to Yu Zheng in front of them.
Yu Zheng: ? ? ? ?
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a large belly stepped forward, holding two excellent-quality walnuts in his hands.
He grabbed Yu Zheng's hand with a serious expression, his tone somewhat urgent:
"Xiao Yu, let's save the pleasantries for later."
"I'm asking you, where's our daughter Bai Zhi?"
Yu Zheng was stunned.
He had assumed that the old guard had come to check the accounts or to recruit new people.
After all, in the entertainment industry, it's generally not a good thing for investors to join a production.
But the moment he opened his mouth, he called her "Bai Zhi's daughter," and the fervor and intimacy in his tone made Yu Zheng wonder if Jiang Bai Zhi was the long-lost blood relative of these bosses.
"Um... Ms. Bai Zhi is having lunch in the lounge right now."
Yu Zheng pointed in the direction of the lounge.
Thus, under the dumbfounded gazes of Yang Mi, Lin Xinru, He Shengming, and other leading actors...
This group of powerful figures in Beijing's entertainment circle, who usually command the respect of celebrities, suddenly started a "100-meter sprint" and rushed towards the lounge in unison.
.......
"Bang!"
The door to the lounge was pushed open from the outside.
Jiang Bai was startled, thinking that He Shengming was finally going to break down the door and steal the bride, and was about to put on a "tough guy defensive stance".
When he looked up, he froze on the spot.
Outside the door stood a row of middle-aged men in suits and ties, with potbellies and an average age of over fifty.
These people all had burning eyes and ruddy complexions.
"Tongzi, what's going on? Has the film crew been booked out by these old guys?"
Jiang Bai asked in his mind, puzzled.
Before the system could reply, Yu Zheng's wrinkled old face squeezed out from behind the crowd, smiling obsequiously.
"Hey, Xiaobai, hurry! Put lunch aside!"
Yu Zheng wiped his sweat while nodding and bowing as he introduced the situation.
"These few are the lifeblood of our 'Beauty's Rival in Palace'!"
"This is General Manager Gao from Qianda Real Estate, and General Manager Li, a coal tycoon... They took time out of their busy schedules to inspect the progress of our film crew!"
Oh, so you're an investor.
Inspection progress?
Why is that look in his eyes so enthusiastic?
However, what happened next made Jiang Bai realize what it meant for enthusiasm to be overwhelming.
"Teacher Bai Zhi! It's her in person! It really is her!"
Mr. Gao rushed forward in three strides and abruptly stopped the car a meter away from Jiang Bai.
As if afraid of disturbing some sacred deity, he gestured with trembling hands to indicate the name:
"Ms. Jiang's rendition of 'I Love You, China' was wonderful!"
"That sense of patriotism, that pure and unadulterated smile... oh my, it really touched this old man's heart!"
"And that song, 'Gently Tell You,' it practically took me back to my first love days when I was sent to the countryside!"
Mr. Li, who was standing next to him, also rushed forward hurriedly, his eyes even a little red:
"Bai Zhi, you're amazing!"
"I don't usually follow celebrities, but after that shout from you, you're my little sister now. I'll protect you if anyone dares to bully you!"
The others were even more enthusiastic:
"Oh my! Look! Where did this fairy come from!"
"Teacher Bai Zhi! You're even more beautiful in person than on TV! That rendition of 'Gently Tell You,' oh my, it made this old man want to go back to his hometown and build a reservoir right then and there!"
"I finally met her in person today! Wow, she's a real person!"
Jiang Bai: "......"
Excitement is understandable, but just don't try to take advantage of him.
"Thank you so much for your kindness, uncles and elders. Bai Zhi is flattered."
That one "Uncle" or "Grandpa" instantly broke the guard of this group of seasoned businessmen who had been navigating the business world for decades, and they all grinned from ear to ear.
"He even calls us 'uncle,' what a polite child!"
Old Deng immediately rushed to take a photo with Jiang Bai.
Before Jiang Bai could even catch his breath, the group of investors had already formed a long queue, moving one by one to his side, adopting extremely humble postures.
"Come on, Xiao Wang, quickly take a picture of me and Teacher Bai Zhi!"
"Yes, I need Teacher Bai Zhi to take clearer pictures. I have to show them off to my wife when I get home!"
"Teacher Bai Zhi, look at the camera! Yes, smile even more sweetly! I've never seen such an upright child in my life!"
then.
Jiang Bai was like a delicate porcelain doll being surrounded by onlookers, being posed for photos by this group of old men in turn.
Like a landmark building.
All that's missing is leaving a message saying "I miss you so much in the lounge".
