177: Will Dongfang appear at the Adventure? Is this director the legendary lucky charm?
Xie Yunxuan stood up and walked towards the bedroom.
He had read many novels and fantasized about stories in his mind.
What was jump special? He could write something even more awesome!
Xie Yunxuan opened his computer and, full of fighting spirit, created a new document.
Half an hour later.
Xie Yunxuan gritted his teeth, stared at the screen, pressed the backspace key, and deleted the 100 words he had just managed to squeeze out.
Damn it, why? What was in his mind was clearly a magnificent pyramid, but how did the keyboard turn it into a pile of nonsense?
It must be a vocabulary problem! Persevere!
Tomorrow and the day after are holidays; he will definitely be able to write it.
...
Behind Xie Yunxuan, Chen Fang was watching movies.
He planned to enter the film industry in the future, so he had to watch the well-known movies of recent years to avoid being clueless when asked.
As he was watching a suspense film, a message popped up at the top of his phone.
[Yue Qingzhu]: "Teacher Chen, are you going home tomorrow?"
Chen Fang replied, "Yes, I'll probably leave at 10 AM."
[Yue Qingzhu]: "Then can I ride in your car? My driver has something to do, and we're going the same way. Can you give me a seat?"
Chen Fang stroked his chin in confusion.
Why didn't she ask the team to send another car? His status was not as high as Yue Qingzhu's, and his car was never unavailable; he almost never had to wait for a car. Was she still so thin-skinned, always thinking of others, and letting herself suffer and be bullied?
"No problem," Chen Fang had no reason to say more and readily agreed.
Pondering that she might have been wronged again and felt like she was imposing by riding in his car, he took the opportunity to comfort her, "Don't worry, tomorrow it'll just be me and the driver. You can take up three seats if you want."
[Yue Qingzhu]: "That's great, thank you!"
"You're welcome." Chen Fang added an OK emoji.
Upstairs.
Yue Qingzhu was kneeling on the bed, covered by a blanket.
After reading Chen Fang's reply, a cunning smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Hehe, success!
She lay down and rolled over. Her phone vibrated again; it was a message from Liu Lu.
[Liu Lu]: "Qingzhu, I heard He Yuanyuan say that your family is coming to pick you up tomorrow?"
Yue Qingzhu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she lied, "Uh, yes."
[Liu Lu]: "If you have anything to complain about, come find me anytime."
"Okay." Yue Qingzhu bit her lower lip lightly, and the corners of her mouth uncontrollably turned upwards.
If I want to complain tomorrow, I can't tell you.
...
Nine PM, at the entrance of the villa.
Chen Fang and Director Liu Yang stood together.
Director Liu raised his hand and slapped his arm, killing a mosquito.
Chen Fang advised, "Why don't we go inside to talk?"
"No need, I'm almost done." Director Liu waved his hand, "Tomorrow morning, the production team will start promoting that we've invited Dongfang to be a guest on the adventures this Saturday. Do you have any special requests?"
The Director raised his hand again and slapped his own face. Being a mosquito magnet was really annoying.
"Nothing else, just keep it a secret from the other guests so their expressions will be more genuine when they learn the truth. Just like on September 3rd, when Teacher Yue appeared."
"No problem."
"That's all."
"Alright, then you should get some good rest." Director Liu covered his neck, stretched his shoulders, and sighed in his daughter's tone, "Oh, if I had known the mortal world was so tiring, I shouldn't have descended."
"Who told you to flirt with Chang'e?"
"I'll kick you!" Director Liu laughed and raised his foot as if to kick him, "With a mouth like yours, be careful you don't find a girlfriend."
Chen Fang dodged, "Then a girlfriend can come find me. Stop chatting, you're almost swelling yourself up."
Director Liu scratched his arm and quickly retreated, "I'm leaving, bye bye."
...
The next day, nine AM.
In a conference room at Kiwi Fruit headquarters.
More than a dozen middle-aged people sat together.
They were determining who would be the director of a variety show, "Winter Journey," scheduled for January next year. This was a new variety show launched by the company, currently rated as an S-level variety show, planning to invite two or three first-tier stars and four or five second and third-tier stars to join.
Currently, there were two candidates for the chief director: one was Director Liu, the group director currently filming the S-level variety show "the adventures," and the other was Tan Yubin, who had previously served as the chief director of an A-level travel variety show.
At the main seat, the head of the variety show department was flipping through documents.
The head of advertising and marketing spoke, "I support choosing Director Liu. His viewership data and creative effects in projects he's participated in over the past six months have been good, and his innovativeness is higher. From a business perspective, he should attract more advertisers."
Liu, the deputy head of the variety show department, spoke, "I support choosing Tan Yubin. Tan Yubin's performance is also quite outstanding, and he has served as a chief director. Director Liu is, after all, a group director, and his overall coordination ability might be slightly inferior. And his good data is largely due to luck."
The advertising head frowned slightly.
Everyone present knew that Tan Yubin's ability was not as good as Director Liu's. The reason he was listed as one of the two candidates was because he was a distant relative of the vice president.
However, the vice president did not tell them to take care of Tan Yubin. When the producer tentatively asked, the vice president gave a quality-first rhetoric, but did not sever his relationship with Tan Yubin. So now they were in a dilemma.
Deputy Director Liu chose to side with the connected person.
As the head of advertising and marketing, she had to consider the director's brand affinity. If the investment attraction effect was not ideal, the variety show would be downgraded.
The head of advertising and marketing insisted, "I still support choosing Director Liu. The group director of "the adventures" also requires strong coordination ability, and there isn't much difference from the chief directors of other production teams."
Deputy Director Liu shook his head and sighed, "He's just too lucky. In the first episode, he encountered Chen Fang clarifying things. In the second episode, Yue Qingzhu actively sought him out, and then Chen Fang transitioned. But what about in the future? Can he always be this lucky?"
The head of advertising and marketing was a bit annoyed by his string of excuses attributing ability to luck and chuckled, "Director Liu, luck is also part of strength. Maybe he's just having a streak of good luck this year?"
"A streak of good luck? If there's a big news within 10 minutes, then I'll support choosing him." Director Liu placed his pen on the table and leaned back against his chair.
Just as his back touched the chair, a soft gasp of surprise suddenly came from diagonally opposite him from the producer: "Oh my god..."
The Director looked at the producer, "What's wrong?"
The producer looked up, a little dazed, his gaze sweeping over everyone, "I, I follow the adventures account, and my phone just lit up. I saw some news."
Director: "Don't beat around the bush, just say it."
The producer's gaze swept over everyone, "This Saturday, Dongfang will appear live on the adventures to interact with the audience and book fans."
The entire conference room fell silent.
Everyone slowly looked at Deputy Director Liu.
Deputy Director Liu blinked in a daze, feeling a bit disoriented.
What the hell was this?
This works too?
Was he the legendary favored child of fortune?
