MMB Chapter 121 Which man?
Chapter 121 Which man?
"Actually, Director Yu is a very good person."
"If she weren't interested in my dad, I really wouldn't mind her having such needs in her romantic life..."
Inside the room, Shen Jiayi was having a video call with Ye Kai.
She has a great sense of direction. This director is not only capable, but also very good-looking, and her artistic and literary temperament is particularly refreshing.
During the days of filming the GG movie, Yu Xinchao provided Shen Jiayi with a lot of help, helping her gradually grow from a complete novice into a qualified GG actress, and also teaching her a lot of other professional knowledge.
"People who are involved in the arts are bound to have richer love lives."
"Some things seem extremely serious to us, but to them they are as simple as eating and drinking. This is a result of the influence of different professions."
"I trust Mayor Shen's character, but it's not wrong for you to give him a heads-up."
"Some things are best nipped in the bud."
Ye Kai lay on the hotel bed, flipping through the headhunting information provided by the company's HR department while talking on the phone with Shen Jiayi.
Summers in Beijing can be unbearably hot.
In broad daylight, once it's past nine o'clock in the morning, you basically can't go out. The scorching sun can burn the ground, and you don't even feel sweat on your body when you're standing outside. Basically, the heat you feel is completely evaporated.
He simply stayed in the hotel to escape the heat, spending his days reviewing company information and headhunting firms to identify the talent he needed to recruit. In the evenings, when the weather cooled down, he would go out and enjoy Beijing's nightlife.
Miss Zhou has some things to take care of at home, so she can't always be by his side.
"Didn't you go climb the Great Wall?"
After Shen Jiayi and Ye Kai had been complaining for a while, they suddenly thought of this problem.
"Going to climb the Great Wall in this weather? Are you sure you're not just asking for trouble?"
Ye Kai glanced at the sun outside the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows and asked with a smile.
"That's true."
"You can choose a cloudy day to climb the Great Wall; you shouldn't get sunburned like a dried-out person."
Shen Jiayi couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this.
"Ye Kai, I miss you."
After chatting with Ye Kai for a while, Miss Shen suddenly started to act coquettishly.
"I miss you as well."
"Come to Beijing after you finish filming your 'GG' movie."
Ye Kai also missed Shen Jiayi. He thought that her film would be finished soon and she would get her driver's license soon. She shouldn't have anything else to do in Xinghua City and would be able to meet up with him soon. His mood improved.
Shen Jiayi's career is developing very well, and her number of Weibo followers is still slowly increasing.
She recently posted some photos from the shoot on Weibo, which has been very effective in attracting followers. She gains several thousand to ten thousand followers every day. Although the speed is not fast, the steady and consistent growth is the key.
Ye Kai has also analyzed the reasons for her sudden popularity. It is likely that in addition to Shen Jiayi's good image, Ye Kai's promotion at the right time was also very important, especially the backstabbing incident, which brought a lot of traffic to Shen Jiayi and made her a big V with millions of fans.
Many people dream of soaring to great heights, and Shen Jiayi, a girl who has just graduated from high school, is the embodiment of that dream for many.
Among the many celebrities and influential figures on Weibo, Shen Jiayi, who is naturally beautiful, is undoubtedly a unique and special presence.
For many people, who lack the ability to realize their dreams, watching an ordinary person gradually reach the top seems to be a special kind of emotional fulfillment process.
"I'll wait for you to come next week."
The two ended the call reluctantly when they mentioned that their phone batteries were running low.
……
The layout of the capital city in its earlier years was such that the east was associated with wealth and the west with nobility.
The Zhou family mansion is a villa located in the eastern part of Beijing, within the Third Ring Road, covering an area of approximately two acres.
Strictly speaking, the Zhou family mansion is a villa complex, consisting of three villas of different sizes, surrounded by gardens, with a small river flowing through the side and a park on the opposite bank.
Geographically speaking, the Zhou family mansion is exceptionally well-positioned.
Someone once wanted to buy the Zhou family mansion for 500 million yuan, but the deal fell through. After all, the Zhou family has assets worth tens of billions of yuan, and there was no need for them to sell their house for 500 million yuan.
Zhou Weitong, the head of the Zhou family, is now fifty-seven years old and in his prime. The Zhou Group has a prominent position in the building materials industry and has also made achievements in the real estate market, and is currently on the rise.
As Zhou Weitong's only daughter, Zhou Xiaoli was the apple of his eye.
The eldest son, Zhou Xiaofang, serves as the general manager of the family business, responsible for managing the building materials company's operations. The second son, Zhou Xiaonian, follows his father to develop the real estate market. Both brothers are quite capable and can be considered promising young scions of wealthy families in Beijing.
"Waaah—"
The Ferrari roared into the yard and parked in the side parking space.
Zhou Xiaoli got out of the car, her brows slightly furrowed, clearly not in a good mood.
That evening, the family had dinner together.
When her father, Zhou Weitong, called to inform her, he seemed to mention that her stepmother, Lü Qingqing, had found her a marriage partner, who seemed to be quite suitable.
So the purpose of tonight's dinner is actually for the whole family to sit down together and discuss this matter.
"So annoying!"
Zhou Xiaoli closed the car door and turned to walk into the villa.
"Xiaoxiao is back."
"You look great lately, your skin is rosy and fair. What cosmetics are you using?"
When Zhou Xiaoli entered the room, Lu Qingqing, the stepmother, immediately put on a fake smile.
She was a second-tier actress back then, but has now basically retired from the entertainment industry.
After Zhou Weitong's first wife passed away due to illness, he was then made his official wife. His three children, including Zhou Xiaofang, Zhou Xiaonian, and Zhou Xiaoli, are not related to Lü Qingqing by blood.
"I didn't use any cosmetics, I was just pampered by men."
Miss Zhou rolled her eyes and replied irritably.
Ok? !
Upon hearing her words, the three men who were discussing work in the room almost simultaneously turned their gazes towards her, looking at their daughter or sister with astonishment and great shock.
"That's a lie..."
"Sit down and rest for a bit. Dinner will be served in ten minutes."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingqing, the stepmother, looked extremely embarrassed and had no choice but to forcefully change the subject.
The age difference between her and this stepdaughter wasn't too great, only about five years. They should have had a lot in common, but Zhou Xiaoli really didn't have a good impression of her, the former mistress. She felt that even saying a word to her was too much, and the relationship between the two was just enough to avoid fighting.
Which man?
After a long pause, Zhou Xiaonian, the second brother, couldn't help but ask a question.
