235: Chapter 235 wants "Zha Zha Hui," not "Zhang Jia Hui."

Liu Kai opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Chen Fan's expression, which didn't look like he was joking, he swallowed his words back down.

He nodded, turned around, walked over to Nick Cheung, leaned in, and whispered a few words.

Nick Cheung listened, raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced toward Chen Fan, a trace of doubt in his eyes.

In all his years of shooting commercials, this was the first time he had encountered a client who asked him to speak Mandarin with a non-standard accent.

But he quickly nodded and said, "Okay."

Liu Kai turned back to the monitor and clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone, prepare for another take. Mr. Nick Cheung, let's relax a bit. Just speak the way you normally would; the more natural, the better."

Nick Cheung stood in front of the solid-colored background, straightened his collar, and took a deep breath.

"Start!" Liu Kai shouted.

Nick Cheung faced the camera. This time, he didn't deliberately try to articulate clearly.

"Da ga hao, wo xi Zhajiahui."

He paused, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly to reveal a hint of a roguish smile, and continued, "Da tian xi ji jian, jie xi ni mei you wan guo de chuan xin ban ben. Ji xu ti yan san fan zhong, li jiu hui gan wo yi yang, ai xiang jie kuan you xi."

The studio went quiet for a moment.

Everyone stared at Nick Cheung standing in front of the background, and the corners of a few people's mouths had already started to curl up uncontrollably.

Chen Fan's eyes lit up.

This was the effect he wanted. Even though he had heard the "Zhajiahui" commercial countless times in his past life, hearing Nick Cheung say this slogan in person still felt incredibly catchy.

Liu Kai looked over at Chen Fan and asked cautiously, "Boss Chen, what do you think of this?"

"Not bad. This is the one."

"Alright, great." Liu Kai hurriedly responded.

He turned around and gave Nick Cheung a thumbs-up, his voice even louder than before. "Mr. Nick Cheung, Boss Chen has approved it. That take was excellent! Let's do two more takes with different emotions just to have more options for post-production. Thank you for your hard work."

Nick Cheung nodded, didn't say much, and returned to his spot.

He straightened his collar, his expression shifting from relaxed back to focused.

After Liu Kai shouted "Start," he immediately got back into character, repeating the phrase "Da ga hao, wo xi Zhajiahui" over and over again.

Artists from Hong Kong are great in this regard; they are very professional.

Even though the director, Liu Kai, was just an ordinary director unknown in the advertising world, and even though the budget and production scale of this commercial were far below the movies he usually filmed, Nick Cheung never showed a trace of impatience from start to finish.

He read every take seriously and maintained the same emotional intensity each time. He listened to all of Liu Kai's suggestions, nodded, said "Okay," and then followed them. He didn't act like a big shot or put on airs. In this regard, Chen Fan truly admired him.

Naza and Reba walked down from the second floor.

Chen Fan turned his head to look and was momentarily stunned.

Both were wearing silver-white Western-style armor. The metal breastplates clung to their bodies, outlining their full curves.

Their waists were cinched tight, and a section of their fair, tender thighs was exposed beneath the skirt armor.

The armor gleamed with a cold light under the studio lights. The tough metal lines and their soft curves formed a contradictory sense of beauty—sexy, but just right; not vulgar, but very alluring.

Looking up at their faces made it even harder to look away.

Naza's features were exquisite and deep, her nose bridge high and eyes deep-set, carrying a natural exotic flair, like a rose with thorns.

Reba had a different vibe, with a bit more heroism in her brows, more defined contours, and a touch of sharpness within her cold beauty.

Standing together—one bright and beautiful, the other cold and stunning—paired with that armor, they looked like Valkyries who had walked straight out of a game.

The studio lights shone on them, and everyone's eyes were involuntarily drawn to them.

Chen Fan hadn't expected the effect of the two of them in armor to be so good.

In his past life, it wasn't that he hadn't seen them in period costumes on TV, but none had been this sexy.

The reactions of the men present were evident; their eyes couldn't help but drift toward them.

A smile flashed in Chen Fan's eyes. This endorsement fee was well worth it.

He believed that as soon as the commercial came out, it would definitely attract a lot of lechers to click on it.

Once people were in, whether the game could keep them was up to the product itself.

Naza and Reba walked over from the shooting area.

Reba walked in front, her expression relatively natural, though the tips of her ears were slightly red.

Naza followed behind her, her hands unconsciously tugging at the edge of her skirt armor, a clear look of shyness on her face.

They walked up to Chen Fan. Naza hesitated, bit her lip, and summoned the courage to ask, "Boss Chen… does this outfit look good?"

Chen Fan looked at her, then at Reba standing next to her, and said with certainty, "It looks good."

Before Naza's mouth could curl into a smile, Chen Fan added, "Though, it's mainly because you two look good. If someone else wore it, it might not have the same effect."

Naza was stunned for a moment, then smiled, her eyes curving into crescent moons.

Reba stood to the side, the corners of her mouth also curving slightly, though she didn't say anything.

Liu Kai, watching from the side, felt like he had figured things out.

These two girls were so beautiful, and they seemed to have a good relationship with Boss Chen; he presumed they had both caught Boss Chen's eye.

No wonder they could film commercials with Nick Cheung at such a young age. He had seen too much of this in the entertainment industry; it was perfectly normal for wealthy bosses to support a few newcomers.

However, he didn't dare to gossip, let alone neglect them. If he handled this relationship well, it would be a plus; if he messed it up, he'd be out of a job.

Thinking of this, he approached Chen Fan and the two girls with a warm expression, bending over with a smile on his face, his tone perfectly attentive. "Boss Chen, we can start filming the content for these two ladies. Don't worry, I have everything prepared. The lights and camera angles are all set; I guarantee the results will be great."

Chen Fan nodded, his tone casual. "Alright, let's shoot."

"You got it!" Liu Kai responded. He turned around and clapped his hands toward the shooting area, his voice brightening. "Alright, everyone, prepare! Would the two ladies please head to the shooting area to take your marks—"

Naza and Reba looked at each other, straightened their armor, and walked toward the shooting area.
