Chapter 220 Meeting in a narrow road
Chapter 220 Meeting in a narrow road
"Let's think about emotional matters after filming is over."
Cheng Xi is very busy now and has no time to think about this.
But Xu Xiao is right in saying that no matter how powerful some people are, what's the use.
To find a suitable partner, you still need to find someone who truly cares about her.
……
On the road.
Cheng Xi received a call from Xia Anqing's assistant, "Miss Cheng, when will you return to the film and television base? Miss Xia wants to talk to you about clothing."
"I'll be there in about twenty minutes."
"Okay, I will grind the coffee here and wait for Miss Cheng."
The assistant's polite reply was completely different from his attitude towards Cheng Xi yesterday.
Cheng Yue drove Cheng Xi directly to the downstairs of the five-star hotel, "You really don't want me to wait for you?"
"No need. It's not far for me to walk there. I can go back to the set to film. It's another day of delay."
After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he took the elevator and went straight up. When he arrived at the door of the suite, he knocked on the door.
The assistant opened the door, and the aroma of freshly ground coffee wafted out.
Xia Anqing was sitting on the sofa wearing a pink nightgown, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, and she was so beautiful.
"I heard from Producer Cao that Miss Cheng has reached an agreement with the people behind Mu Xuetong not to pursue this matter, but our crew can no longer use the works designed by Miss Cheng. Miss Cheng is quite capable, but I seem to There is no use for it….”
As Xia Anqing spoke, she looked at Cheng Xi. Even though she had been in the entertainment industry for many years, she had to admit that Cheng Xi had a good foundation. What was rare was that she was very beautiful even without makeup.
"So...if Miss Xia wants my cheongsam, she has to pay for it."
Cheng Xi said with a smile, "But don't worry, Miss Xia. I'm a newcomer. It's not expensive. How about a set of five thousand, including a headdress."
"It's quite cheap." Xia Anqing said truthfully, "A lot of the cheongsam has fine handwork, but yours is still original."
Cheng Xi nodded, "Those sets of cheongsam were originally designed for Miss Xia. Suitable clothes are worthless if they are not worn by the right person. As long as a reporter can mention me when they interview who designed Miss Xia's cheongsam in the future. Just a name will do.”
"Aren't you afraid that no one will care about the cheongsam you designed?" Xia Anqing couldn't help but said, "Maybe someone on the Internet will complain about me and offend the costume stylist."
"No, I'm sure it will look beautiful on you. If Miss Xia is worried, there's nothing I can do about it. Miss Xia can hire someone else."
After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he lazily picked up the ground coffee to refresh himself.
It just so happens that I have to work in the afternoon.
Xia Anqing looked at her for a while and suddenly smiled, "Okay, I'm willing to cooperate with you."
"If Miss Xia is still willing to cooperate with Lin Nai, I have no objection." Cheng Xi shrugged.
"Forget it, I really look down on Lin Nai about what happened this time. When he gave me the cheongsam that he copied from you, he designed every word of it himself, but..." Xia Anqing's face was filled with mockery, "I I guess he usually uses the studio's manuscripts to fool us, but Lin Nai has been in the film and television industry for more than ten years and has connections behind him, so it's not that easy to fall."
"Thank you, Miss Xia, for telling me this." Cheng Xi's eyes flashed.
"It's not necessary, I feel uncomfortable too," Xia Anqing said meaningfully, "You were very brave to question Lin Nai in public today, and it also made Lin Nai lose face. I heard that Lin Nai has a good way of excluding dissidents in this industry. , I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, after all, your design skills are good."
"I believe there will definitely be opportunities. I am also good at costume modeling."
Cheng Xi drank the rest of the coffee and stood up, "The coffee tastes good, but I have something to do with the crew this afternoon, so I have to leave first."
"Let's go. I have to fly back to the capital soon. The batch of cheongsams that I copied from you can't be used. The crew has to stop filming for a few more days. Producer Cao was severely scolded by the investors. I heard that One investor is planning to withdraw his capital." Xia Anqing said suddenly.
"Withdraw capital?" Cheng Xi's legs stopped as he left, slightly surprised.
"Yeah, but I heard that what Producer Cao means is that he can find new investors. I guess Producer Cao will find the Pei family behind Mu Xuetong. After all, it was Pei Yanzhou who brought Mu Xuetong in and out of this stall. Pei Yanzhou cannot just sit idly by and ignore things."
"Pei is very wealthy and has no shortage of money. I believe that with Pei's investment, "Dreams" can be filmed even better. Congratulations to Miss Xia." Cheng Xi said with a smile.
"What's there to congratulate? No matter how much investment you make, it's just a bad drama." Xia Anqing complained, "The script has been changed beyond recognition. Why do I insist on asking the cheongsam to look good? I just hope that when this drama is released, the audience will At least they won’t complain about me being ugly.”
"Miss Xia just thinks about making money while working on her acting skills." Cheng Xi comforted her with a smile.
Xia Anqing raised his eyebrows, "That's true."
Cheng Xi took the elevator and left and went downstairs.
The elevator dinged as soon as it reached the first floor, and as soon as I walked out, I saw Lin Nai walking over with his assistant.
The three of them met on a narrow road.
When Lin Nai saw Cheng Xi, his brows jumped, as if he saw an enemy gnashing his teeth, "Why are you here?"
"Master Lin, you are joking. This is a hotel. Of course I can come if I want," Cheng Xi raised his head and smiled openly.
Lin Nai's eyes were dark, "What a sharp-tongued girl, but let me remind you that sometimes, if you don't know how to restrain yourself, you will offend others. You are still young, especially someone like you who has no background. When you are too arrogant, you will be silent. The breath disappeared and no one knew.”
"Then let me remind Master Lin." The smile on Cheng Xi's face did not reach her eyes. "As a designer, what you should study should be design, not opportunism. If you just rely on others, you will capsize sooner or later."
After saying that, she no longer looked at Lin Nai's sudden change of expression, turned around and left.
Lin Naihan stared at her back and disappeared from sight, then turned to ask his assistant, "Have you asked about her background? Are you sure there is no background?"
"The director of that crappy crew, Cheng Yue, has some background and is a descendant of the Su family. However, this Cheng Xi has nothing to do with the Su family, and the Su family won't care about her. Besides, the Su family is not as good as before." The assistant said lowly Said loudly.
"Very good." Lin Nai sneered, "Cheng Xi has embarrassed me so much this time. I want her to look good and find someone to give her some good looks."
"no problem."
……
Pei Group.
Yang Kai bit the bullet and knocked on the office door.
Since Mr. Pei returned to the company in the afternoon, he has always had a stern face. He really didn't want to get into trouble, but he had no choice.
"Come in." A cold voice came from inside.
"President, there was a call from Producer Cao just now. What they meant was that because of Miss Mu's incident, one of the investors in the crew of "Secret Fragrance and Floating Dreams" got angry and withdrew 100 million yuan. Producer Cao... hopes that Pei I hope you can help me top up the investment amount..."
