2232 Twins
Su Zhuoqian interrupted him. “Do you know what the most vulgar saying is?”
“What is it?”
“If you can’t even stuff your mouth with steak, you might as well throw it away.” Su Zhuoqian placed his untouched steak in front of him. It was obvious that he did not want to hear him nag anymore.
“Alright, alright. Go ahead with your work. I’ll take good care of Sister-in-law.”
Su Zhuoqian raised his eyebrows.
Lu Mingjue felt that the man’s gaze was like a knife and hurriedly explained, “The care I’m talking about is different from what you think.”
…
After resting for the night, there was a cocktail party the next night.
At this cocktail party, one could come into contact with many people in the film industry and business world in Country N. One could even find out about those endorsements.
For artistes, remuneration was a major part of their income.
However, the more famous an artiste was, the higher their expenses. Other benefits were also very important. Advertising endorsements were the most important.
The cost of endorsements had always been high. Sometimes, it even exceeded the remuneration.
Moreover, the greatest benefit of advertising was that the advertising company would post photos of celebrities in offline physical shops and advertisements for TV shows.
This indirectly increased the national fame and influence of the artistes.
When Qiao Jierou woke up in the morning, she heard Lin Heng say, “I’ll bring you to meet some friends from N Country first. They’re all important guests at tonight’s cocktail party.”
Qiao Jierou’s mood soared.
Sure enough, with Lin Heng accompanying her, it was twice the results with half the effort.
The two of them packed up and went to the buffet area of the hotel, planning to leave after a simple breakfast.
Qiao Weiyang and Yang Qianhui were sitting together eating breakfast. The other crew members were also there, and everyone was chatting.
Some people planned to take the opportunity during the day to go around. Some wanted to see their friends, some wanted to take photos and send them back to the country, and some wanted to record a vlog.
“What about you, Weiyang?”
“I don’t have much to do today. I’ll just rest in the hotel and read the script.”
“You’ve already received a new script?” someone said enviously.
“Yes, more or less.” Actually, she hadn’t received any scripts. She was currently writing a script and had previously promised a certain big director.
When she had nothing to do, she would write down her thoughts.
Seeing Qiao Jierou coming over, someone asked her, “Jierou, where are you going today? Sigh, I made a mistake. Jierou is probably going on a date with her boyfriend today.”
Qiao Jierou didn’t want everyone to know that she was going to communicate with the other parties about the endorsement deals in advance. She said, “That’s right. We’re going out to play and meet Brother Heng’s friends.”
“I really envy you.”
Qiao Weiyang looked up at Qiao Jierou indifferently.
Qiao Jierou felt that when she looked at her, it was as if she had seen through her heart. It made her panic.
She was panicking when she suddenly saw a familiar figure walk over.
That man was Lu Mingjue, who was once known as a top manager in the entertainment industry. He had nurtured countless A-list celebrities. He also had an excellent relationship with Su Group and Su Zhuoqian.
All the artistes in the entertainment industry wanted to sign a contract with him.
Unfortunately, he had always been very picky with people and had a strict set of standards. Unless he wanted to, no one else could move his heart and become his artiste.
He left the entertainment industry two years ago and had not taken care of newbies for a long time.
Therefore, Qiao Jierou had only fantasized about being his artiste before. Now that she saw him here, she could not help but feel amazed and surprised.
Lu Mingjue took the food and sat down in front of Qiao Weiyang. He said, “This is what I’m gonna eat.”
Hearing him talk to Qiao Weiyang in such a familiar tone, the others in the production team were already used to it. Clearly, they had arrived a little earlier and had already recovered from their shock.
Qiao Jierou said in surprise, “Mr. Lu, you’re…”
Yang Qianhui smiled and said, “Mr. Lu is Weiyang’s manager.”
“Ah,” Qiao Jierou muttered, unable to control her shock.
She had never thought of this possibility.
Qiao Weiyang established her own studio previously. She did not hide the fact that Lu Mingjue was her manager from everyone.
However, Qiao Jierou had always been arrogant and did not think that there was any impressive staff behind Qiao Weiyang. She often felt that Qiao Weiyang’s various arrangements were very stupid.
She didn’t think there was a manager who was willing to work with Qiao Weiyang.
Now that she had seen it with her own eyes, she knew the truth. It turned out that Qiao Weiyang had signed on such a good manager.
No wonder Qiao Weiyang was fearless and did not look worried at all when she arrived in N Country.
Lu Mingjue raised his head and sized Qiao Jierou up. Then, he looked away and couldn’t be bothered to look at her anymore.
With his keen eyes, he knew at a glance that the woman in front of him would not be able to achieve anything. Her qualifications were too ordinary.
“Weiyang, so you signed on Mr. Lu.” Qiao Jierou was envious, jealous, and inexplicably bitter.
Lu Mingjue was famous for his good resources. Qiao Weiyang’s future was really limitless.
Lin Heng was also extremely surprised and sized Qiao Weiyang up deeply.
Qiao Jierou stood there for a while. She didn’t want Qiao Weiyang and Lu Mingjue to know her schedule. She was afraid that Qiao Weiyang would interfere and delay her acceptance of the endorsement. She didn’t have much of an appetite anymore. After getting a cup of coffee, she said, “Everyone, I’m running out of time. I’m leaving now.”
“Have fun,” everyone said behind her.
Only then did Qiao Jierou and Lin Heng rush out.
After coming out, Qiao Jierou’s expression had yet to recover. “Sister actually signed a contract with Lu Mingjue!”
“I didn’t expect that either. He’s such a good manager.”
“No wonder she was able to resolve the few incidents that happened. Even with Tian Guang’s incident and her drug addiction incident, she easily took control of the situation. It turns out that there’s such a person supporting her.”
Lin Heng also recalled that even Su Zhuoqian had given her some face in the hotel back then. It must be because she was Lu Mingjue’s artiste that she enjoyed such an honor.
No wonder she ignored his opinions and suggestions now.
Since she had signed on Lu Mingjue, her future development would be limitless.
The two of them were lost in their own thoughts for a while.
“Brother Heng, let’s get in the car quickly.”
“Why are you in such a hurry?” Lin Heng asked.
“Yes, I want to see your friends as soon as possible and settle the matter,” Qiao Jierou said, pretending to be relaxed. “When I saw Lu Mingjue, I felt a little threatened. What if he uses all kinds of resources to directly give the endorsement to my sister… It’s not that I don’t want to see my sister doing well, but I do need some endorsements for the sake of my fans.”
