Chan Ka-yin choked on the words of persuasion that she had prepared.
Zhou Sen actually chose Li Xiao? Wasn't he a very strict person? Was it because of the skills that Li Xiao just displayed? When did Li Xiao learn these?
Questions kept popping up in her mind, and in the end, they all turned into one sentence, "When did you learn martial arts?" Looking at Li Xiao's posture today, it was impossible to do it without more than ten years of hard work.
No, it was even more than that. Chan Ka-yin had filmed several action Wuxia movies over the years, and even the martial arts directors on the set couldn't do it like this.
Li Xiao smiled brightly, "I'm talented, and I learned it in a few days."
Chan Ka-yin frowned, this was obviously an excuse.
Li Xiao said, "If you're not satisfied with this reason, I can give you another one. Well, I learned it in my dreams. "
Chan Ka-yin couldn't insist on getting to the bottom of the matter with the other party's attitude. She didn't continue to dwell on this topic, and just talked about some of her experiences and tricks during the filming process. Although Li Xiao didn't like her, she still listened to her.
In any case, Chan Ka-yin didn't dare to do anything to harm her in order to maintain her image in front of others.
When she was almost done talking, Li Xiao received a text message from her agent, Ewen. Ewen had returned to China today.
Li Xiao said to the driver, "Just send me directly to Huawu Entertainment Company."
Huawu Entertainment Company was one of the top entertainment giants in China, but in recent years, it had been overshadowed by Chan Ka-yin's entertainment company, Jiannan Entertainment Company. Jiannan Entertainment Company, from the name, was a company that Lê Nam Giệu opened to support Chan Ka-yin. In recent years, it had been thriving, and had become a giant in the entertainment industry.
Chan Ka-yin asked her, "Why don't you come to Jiannan? Your father and I will watch over you, so you won't be wronged. "
Li Xiao couldn't help but think of a way to cheat money, so she didn't immediately refuse, and just vaguely said, "Let's see."
Such an answer already made Chan Ka-yin very happy. If it was a week ago, Li Xiao would only mock and ridicule her and flatly refuse, and wouldn't consider it. Although he felt that Li Xiao's temperament had changed a little, on second thought, it might be because she had suffered in the previous production team and understood that not everyone in this world was willing to support her. Without the Li family's halo, she would have nothing.
Previously, Li Xiao had chosen Hua Wu to sign a contract, which led to many of her competitors mocking her. They said that she was just pretending to be a kind mother, which was why her stepdaughter hated her so much and would rather go to another company.
This was one of the reasons why she had accompanied Li Xiao to the audition today. At least Li Xiao still gave her face in front of outsiders today.
Thinking of this, her expression became more gentle, and her whole body seemed to emit a gentle light. "If you don't have enough money to spend, just tell us."
Li Xiao said decisively, "I won't be polite!"
If she didn't spend more money, would she have to wait for the Li Clan's things to be left to Chan Ka-yin's son and daughter? The original owner would be sullen to death. She was now using the original owner's identity, so she had to think more about her.
These days, she had also investigated the original owner's birth mother, Xu Manqin, and Lê Nam Giệu. At the time, the Xu family and the Li Clan had a marriage alliance, and it could be said to be a strong alliance. No, it should be said that this marriage was more beneficial to Lê Nam Giệu. After all, at the time, Lê Nam Giệu had a cousin above him. The Xu family was in the limelight at the time, so this marriage allowed Lê Nam Giệu to sit firmly in the position of the head of the Li Clan. During that time, Xu Manqin used a lot of her dowry to help Lê Nam Giệu strengthen the Li Clan.
After Lê Nam Giệu found true love, he dealt with the Xu family, causing the Xu family to be ruined. Xu Manqin disappeared without a trace. Although Li Xiao could also cut ties with Lê Nam Giệu and leave the Li Clan. But wouldn't that be letting them take advantage of her? Xu Manqin and the original owner also had a part of the Li Clan's money.
When they arrived at the entrance of the Huawu Company, Li Xiao got out of the car.
She raised her head to look at the Chinese Dance Company. As an established entertainment company, the Chinese Dance Company was quite big.
As the saying goes, the owner of the mountain is expensive, while the owner of the river is rich. The Chinese Dance Company was located on the inner side of the curved river. In the words of the experts, it was the best location. In addition, the Ming Hall was wide, so it could be said to be a source of income. Logically speaking, with such good feng shui, there should be an abundance of spiritual energy and good luck. However, the spiritual energy here was much less than expected. It was almost unable to support it.
Li Xiao's footsteps paused for a moment, then she lifted her feet and walked into the building.
Ewen's office was on the twelfth floor. She took the elevator up. She had just asked for Ewen's office in a text message. Without the original owner's memories, she couldn't help but feel a bit restricted.
She knocked on the door, and soon heard a "Come in."
Ewen had short hair and looked smart and capable. She put down the documents in her hands and said with a teasing tone, "You actually know how to knock?"
Li Xiao closed the door and said casually, "I don't have any memories from before."
Ewen looked like she had been hit with a stick. She looked a bit dazed. "Are you kidding me?"
Li Xiao sat in front of her. "I'm not kidding."
Ewen frowned. "I heard that you were in a coma after being kicked out of the cast when I was abroad. I rushed back after finishing my work. Don't tell me you were too agitated? "
She gritted her teeth. "I was wondering why you suddenly felt kinship with Zhan Jiaxiu. Did they say something to you? "She looked nervous." Don't be fooled by them. "
Li Xiao said, "I don't have any memories, but I'm not brainless. I'm not that easy to fool."
Ewen rubbed her temples. "Find time to go to the hospital for a check-up and see what's going on."
"I asked someone to inquire about the cast you were in before. It was Ren P Tang who said that you were kicked out of the cast. "
Li Xiao immediately searched for Ren P Tang's name, and the results were brilliant. He debuted at a young age and won an award for his acting skills, becoming the youngest film emperor. After that, his career took off and he became a film emperor who was both virtuous and talented in the eyes of the public. Because he was handsome, he had a lot of fans. According to the rumors, Ren P Tang was said to be a rich second generation with a strong family background.
Li Xiao was puzzled. "Did I offend him?"
No matter how bad the original owner's acting was, she was only playing a small role and didn't have many lines. She shouldn't have been kicked out of the cast. If a film emperor like Ren P Tang said something, then it was normal.
Who would offend Ren P Tang for the Li Clan's unloved eldest daughter?
Ai Wen snorted through her nose. "Because you bullied his sweetheart. Everyone in the industry knows that Ren P Tang has a crush on Chan Ka-yin. Chan Ka-yin's first movie after returning to China was with Ren P Tang. At that time, many first-rate actresses were competing for that role. Chan Ka-yin didn't have any advantage over them. At that time, she was surrounded by scandals. At that time, Ren P Tang, who was the male lead, chose Chan Ka-yin. Not only was he the male lead, but he was also one of the investors. The director had to take his opinion into consideration. "
Li Xiao couldn't help but sigh. Her stepmother's charm wasn't small. She was already married, but the film emperor was still infatuated with her and followed her everywhere.
Ewen was very annoyed. Ren P Tang not only asked the director to kick Xiao Xiao out of the cast, but also said that she was "rotten wood that couldn't be carved". With such an evaluation, many cast members had to think twice before looking for Li Xiao.
Although she could be considered a gold medal agent, her position in the industry couldn't be compared to Ren P Tang.
Li Xiao knew that her existence was in the eyes of such a big shot, but she didn't care. She didn't intend to be in this industry in the first place.
She took out the contract from Zhou Sen. "Here, help me see if there are any problems with the contract. If there aren't, I'll sign it."
Ewen took a sip of the freshly brewed tea. "What contract? Don't go to some messy cast. At least let me take a look first. Otherwise, I won't even know if you're being bullied. "She thought that it was some small role in some web drama.
When she saw the words "Shaolin" at the top, she almost spat out the tea in her mouth.
"Zhou Dao's' Shaolin '??? Is this for real? " She hurriedly looked at the contract. When she reached the end, her eyes were a little dazed and her face was full of disbelief.
This was Zhou Dao! Moreover, he had high hopes for this drama and had invested a lot of money. Although it was only a supporting female role, there were still many small stars competing for it. She never expected that this role would fall into Xiao Xiao's hands.
She said in a subtle tone, "Could it be that Zhou Dao is lacking in investment and you brought money into the cast?"
Li Xiao was speechless.
She got the role with her own abilities!
Ewen's face was still full of doubts, but she still read the contract diligently and said, "There are no problems with the contract. I'll go with you to sign it tomorrow."
She sighed and said earnestly, "This is a rare opportunity. You have to grasp it well. Even if it's tough, you have to bear with it. Don't lose your temper."
Li Xiao nodded. "I know."
Ewen stood up. "Let's go. We'll have dinner on the way."
She was almost done with her work for the day. Moreover, she had a lot of things to tell Li Xiao. Li Xiao's current situation wasn't like before. She couldn't be as willful as before.
However, when Ai Wen picked up a phone call, anger appeared on her palm-sized face.
Li Xiao asked, "Who made you angry?"
Ewen pursed her lips. "Look at the third trending topic."
Li Xiao opened Weibo. The third trending topic was "Model Stepmother Chan Ka-yin."
She clicked on the trending topic. Many marketing accounts were praising Chan Ka-yin for being beautiful and kind. She also treated her stepdaughter equally. Her stepdaughter Li Xiao was also influenced by her and had a harmonious relationship with her. The accompanying picture was of Chan Ka-yin accompanying Li Xiao to the interview.
Picture 1: Chan Ka-yin handing Li Xiao a drink.
Picture 2: Chan Ka-yin gently talking to Li Xiao.
Picture 3: Chan Ka-yin asked the staff to turn the fan to Li Xiao.
The comments under the marketing accounts were naturally full of praise.
[Boohoo, my Yinyin is really a good person! She's a goddess! I'll love her forever!]
[Li Xiao is Xu Manqin's daughter, right? Didn't Xu Manqin say that he hired the Internet Water Army to attack Chan Ka-yin last year? It's really not easy for Chan Ka-yin to treat her daughter so well. I used to dislike her because of her title as the Best Actress, but now I'm going to become her fan.]
[As an industry insider, I'll secretly reveal something. Chan Ka-yin really treats her stepdaughter very well. During this time, she's been helping Li Xiao find a suitable script.]
[Sigh, she's someone else's stepmother. My stepmother can't even do half of what she does. It's torture for me to stay at home every day.]
[Look at the picture. Li Xiao has a good relationship with her now. Indeed, only sincerity can move sincerity.]
Li Xiao laughed out loud when she saw the comments that were all in the same style.
Ewen, who was originally angry, said, "Don't tell me you're so angry that you're stupid?" She could still laugh.
Li Xiao closed Weibo. "This is a good thing. Doesn't she want to be a model stepmother in China? I'll fulfill her wish. "
"By the way, you'll hire the Internet Water Army, right?"
"Remember to hire more Internet Water Army to post articles about this. Yes, let's say that Chan Ka-yin treats her stepdaughter better than her biological child. She's not even prepared to let her biological child inherit the Li Clan's business. "
"Or let's say that Chan Ka-yin has decided to let me inherit the Li Clan."
