Outside the private room.
The atmosphere was a little stiff.
President Zhou looked at her and finally instructed Chen Ying, "We're counting on you today. If it wasn't for the fact that I had no other choice, I wouldn't have wanted you to do this. Xiaoyan and Xiao Lu were here just now, but they didn't even look at us. I don't know if they have high standards or … Yingying, you …"
"Say no more, Brother Zhou." Chen Ying said calmly, "I know what to do."
Director Zhou's heart ached a little as he guaranteed, "If this matter really succeeds, don't worry, the company will definitely …"
Chen Ying shook her head. "You've always taken good care of me. You've always given me priority to audition for every film. Even if the director had objections, you stood your ground. You've never mentioned these things to me, but I know very well that you don't have to promise me anything. You've already taken good care of me."
Chief Zhou gritted his teeth. "Please."
"What's his name?" Chen Ying asked.
"His surname is Dong. I didn't hear his first name clearly." Director Zhou replied.
"Alright." Chen Ying said calmly, "I'll help you deal with him."
Director Zhou hesitated for a moment. "Don't blame your Brother Zhou. I also …"
Chen Ying said quietly, "I can't even thank you enough. Why would I blame you? You should know me very well. I, Chen Ying, have always been grateful."
Director Zhou heaved a sigh of relief. "Are you ready?"
"Alright, let's go in." Chen Ying adjusted her coat.
Hearing this, Director Zhou personally opened the door for her and entered the private room with her. As soon as the door opened, Chen Ying's expressionless face turned into a gentle smile. She was very reserved and elegant. As expected of an actress, her expression could change at will.
"Hmm?"
"Little Chen?"
"Yingying also came?"
They naturally knew that CEO Zhou had always valued Chen Ying and took special care of her. He had always treated her like his daughter. The reason was that Chen Ying looked very similar to CEO Zhou's deceased daughter. Therefore, other than the young secretary who contacted them, the other senior executives did not expect CEO Zhou to call Chen Ying. It seemed that it was really time to stake everything on this one throw. CEO Zhou must be at his wit's end. Otherwise, he would not have asked Chen Ying to accompany him to drink or even sleep with him.
"This is …"
"Chen Ying?"
"It's her! It must be! "
"Damn! Is it really Chen Ying? "
Other than the old policeman, the other two younger policemen were excited. They did not expect to see a celebrity here. They could not even remember the names of the small-time celebrities who had entered the room earlier. They only knew that they were familiar with them, or they knew the names of the characters they had played in television dramas. However, they knew Chen Ying's name. This could already be considered as popularity. Chen Ying was obviously not on the same level as those small-time actors. Although she could not be considered a big shot, she was at least a very well-known celebrity.
Deputy Director Chang's eyes lit up. He must have seen Chen Ying's drama before.
Dong Xuebing heard the voice and looked over. That person looks familiar, but he did not feel anything else.
Chen Ying already knew who the main character of today's meeting was. She immediately looked at Dong Xuebing and was slightly surprised. "Good morning, Leaders." Dong Xuebing nodded.
President Zhou smiled and said, "Quickly sit, Yingying. Sit next to our Mr. Dong. Mr. Dong hasn't eaten anything since just now. You have to take care of it."
Chen Ying smiled and said, "Sure."
She walked over and sat beside Dong Xuebing.
This time, Dong Xuebing did not reject her. Although Chen Ying was not good-looking, she was pleasing to his eyes.
She looks so familiar.
What movies did she act in?
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and could not remember.
"Mr. Dong, is your glass empty? Let me pour some for you. "Chen Ying smiled and poured Dong Xuebing a glass of wine." Let me give you a toast. "
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "I don't drink. I am driving."
"Let's eat." Chen Ying picked up some vegetables and placed them in Dong Xuebing's bowl.
Dong Xuebing did not give her any face. "No need. I will help myself."
Chen Ying smiled faintly and said, "I've just entered the restaurant. If you don't want to drink or eat, I won't be able to get out of this embarrassing situation."
Dong Xuebing forced himself to eat a mouthful of food. "Ok."
"Thank you, Mr. Dong." Chen Ying continued to pick up some vegetables for Dong Xuebing and chatted casually with Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing also replied with a few sentences.
Director Zhou was happy to see Dong Xuebing's attitude had softened. He knew there is hope. At least, Dong Xuebing likes Chen Ying. So, Director Zhou started to talk about Chen Ying. The rest of the company's top management saw this and started to talk about Chen Ying. For example, what movies or TV series Chen Ying had acted in, what roles Chen Ying had acted in, and they want to use Chen Ying as the starting point.
Movies?
TV series?
But Dong Xuebing was stunned. They had told Dong Xuebing about all Chen Ying's films, but he had not watched any of them. This was the reason why Dong Xuebing felt Chen Ying looked familiar. He had also not read the entertainment news before, but why does Chen Ying look so familiar?
Dong Xuebing looked at Chen Ying and asked. "Have we met before?"
Director Zhou, Director Wu, and the rest were speechless. What kind of pickup line is this? Too old!
However, Chen Ying blinked and said, "I was just about to say that. Have we met before? You look … very familiar to me. "
"Me too." Dong Xuebing thought hard for a while.
Suddenly, Chen Ying was stunned. "You are … Dong … Dong Xuebing?"
Dong Xuebing blinked. "That's right. You are?"
"I am Chen Ying." Chen Ying immediately replied. "Heping Primary School! We are sitting in front of each other! "
Dong Xuebing slapped his forehead. "It's you! Chen Ying! I remember now! I remember now! Ahhh! What a coincidence! "Dong Xuebing had met his primary school classmate!
Director Zhou and the rest were stunned. Damn! You two really know each other?!
"Chen Ying, when did you become a celebrity?" Dong Xuebing was surprised.
Chen Ying laughed. "I had starred in so many movies, and you had not watched any of them?"
Dong Xuebing smiled. "I don't like to watch movies and TV shows usually. After I started working, I don't have time to watch them anymore. I didn't expect this."
Chen Ying asked. "I didn't expect someone with my average looks can act in movies?"
"No. That's right." Dong Xuebing replied. "You are still not good-looking? Come on, you're too modest. With your temperament, won't you be able to outshine everyone else if you just stand there? Also, you are one of the prettiest girls in our primary school and school. "
Chen Ying laughed. "That's because there are not many girls in our class."
No wonder Dong Xuebing found her familiar. They had been classmates for six years. Actually, Chen Ying was considered one of the prettiest girls in their primary school, and Dong Xuebing should have remembered her. But it had been more than ten years, and people will change. That's why Dong Xuebing could not recognize her. But Chen Ying still remembers him after so many years. Dong Xuebing was surprised. Most people will not remember Dong Xuebing because he had been keeping a low profile in school. Of course, it's not that Dong Xuebing wants to keep a low profile. It's because his results, looks, family background, and does not like to talk. Who will remember him?
Dong Xuebing asked. "How did you recognize me?"
Chen Ying smiled. "I noticed you look familiar when I entered. You have two freckles at the corner of your eyes, and your surname is Dong. I immediately remember who you are."
Dong Xuebing sighed. "I can't believe you still remember me."
"But you've forgotten about me." Chen Ying's eyes were filled with displeasure.
"I did not forget you. It's just that you had changed a lot, and you are much prettier than before. I dare not recognize you." Dong Xuebing did not say anything. Chen Ying's name was too common, and there should be more people with this name than Dong Xuebing. That's why Dong Xuebing did not remember her.
"How are you doing recently?" Dong Xuebing asked.
"Nothing much." Chen Ying replied. "I started acting after graduating from university. What about you?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "I joined the government service after I graduated."
Chen Ying asked curiously. "Civil servant? This is a good job, and it's much better than us. "
Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "Forget it. We are only working behind the scenes to serve the people. We cannot be compared to you all. It's better to be a celebrity."
"You are making fun of me. Hahaha." Chen Ying laughed.
Dong Xuebing replied. "No. To be honest, if I am like you, I will also become a celebrity. But it's a pity that I am not good-looking."
Chen Ying looked at Dong Xuebing. "You are getting more and more energetic."
Both of them chatted. They had a lot to talk about when they met their old classmates.
Manager Zhou was the happiest person in the room. He also did not expect Chen Ying and Dong Xuebing to be classmates from primary school. This will make things easier for him. The relationship between classmates is the purest, and with this opportunity, it will be easier for him to solve this problem.
Manager Zhou immediately asked. "Yingying, Mr. Dong is your classmate?"
Chen Ying nodded. "Yes. We were classmates for two years." Chen Ying understood what Manager Zhou was trying to say. She was also trying to get closer to Dong Xuebing. "Xuebing had copied my homework before. Haha, but the teacher found out. Both of us were punished to stand for an entire class. Thinking back to that time, it is quite interesting."
Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. "Sigh … let's not talk about it. I am sorry. But I had brought you a week's worth of meals." Dong Xuebing recalled that incident and smiled. When they were in primary school, they had to order their meals. But the school meals were not delicious and expensive. Many students had to bring their own meals from home. Dong Xuebing had used this method to apologize to Chen Ying for implicating her in that incident.
Chen Ying laughed. "I still remember that the meals were delicious. I still want to eat it, but you did not bring it back for me."
Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. "It's all my mother's doing."
The past had passed.
Youth had passed.
