281: Chapter 281 Male Lead Lu Fanyu_1 281: Chapter 281 Male Lead Lu Fanyu_1 Lin Weiwei heard that Bai Xiaosheng was attending the event and got busy making preparations as his advisor.
Zhongjing dia had tailored business suits for departnts like Administration and Logistics.
Departnts that didn’t need to wear uniforms received an annual clothing allowance.
Executives were provided with a wardrobe that included everything from suits to ties, shirts, and even socks, with different colors and styles.
Just for suits, executives got two sets while deputy directors and general managers received five sets each.
Bai Xiaosheng had been asured for clothing so ti ago since his arrival, and the outfits had been delivered, but there had been no major events for him to attend in them.
Even at the event his own company held yesterday, Bai Xiaosheng had only been backstage and didn’t show his face, so he hadn’t worn formal attire.
Now, attending a cocktail reception required formal attire, which was also a sign of respect to the guests.
Lin Weiwei chose an appropriate suit for Bai Xiaosheng, and when he ca out after changing, she was impressed.
Clothes make the man, just as gold makes the Buddha.
After changing, Bai Xiaosheng looked extraordinarily handso, which made Lin Weiwei blush slightly.
Having looked at himself in the mirror, Bai Xiaosheng also felt good.
“Weiwei, co with tonight,” Bai Xiaosheng said.
After all, as a deputy director, it wouldn’t be too ostentatious to bring an assistant.
“Sure,” Lin Weiwei agreed happily.
But just as she had consented, her phone rang.
After stepping out to take the call, she returned looking anxious.
“My mother fainted and was taken to the hospital, I need to go there,” Lin Weiwei said uneasily, “Xiaosheng, about your event…”
“Silly girl, hurry over there.
Nothing is more important than family!” Bai Xiaosheng imdiately cut her off, then reminded her, “After you get there, call if you need anything.”
Lin Weiwei gave a grateful smile and rushed off.
Bai Xiaosheng sighed softly and straightened his tie in the wardrobe mirror.
“Looks like I’ll have to attend the banquet alone this ti.
The Film Departnt, huh?
I’ve never been there and I don’t think I know anyone…”
…
At the top floor of Zhongjing Wanhe Building,
The opulent banquet hall with its eight-ter high ceiling mirrored the Garnier Opera House in Paris, France, exquisite in every detail and resplendent with gold.
Stepping inside, Bai Xiaosheng was profoundly moved.
Compared to this, the luxurious private rooms of Tiannan Pearl Tower seed to pale in significance.
The entire banquet hall was imposing and refined, with attention to detail that bespoke masterpiece craftsmanship, flawlessly intricate.
Bai Xiaosheng noticed that even in the most inconspicuous corners, decorative iron figurines were crafted with clear facial features and delicate attire, all custom-made items.
Actually, it was only after arriving here that Bai Xiaosheng realized he had made a mistake; he had gotten the timing from Song Changkong’s assistant mixed up… resulting in him arriving thirty minutes early.
It was sowhat embarrassing for a company’s deputy director to co early and wait for others in such eagerness…
“I mustn’t let Weiwei find out about this, or she’ll tease for a month,” Bai Xiaosheng sighed to himself.
Fortunately, quite a few people had already arrived.
There were also many handso n and beautiful won, the young artists signed by the company’s Film Departnt.
However, despite the crowd, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t recognize a single person, and no one there knew him.
Even though he was a deputy general manager, since the day he started, he hadn’t spent ti touring the various departnts, but had been buried in work with the New dia Departnt, busy with restructuring and competing with Chen Changqing.
“I’ve missed out on eting so many beautiful won,” Bai Xiaosheng lanted as he admired the beauties around him.
Of course, there were not just beautiful won there.
Around the walls of the banquet hall hung high-quality oil paintings.
While they weren’t creations of world-renowned masters, Bai Xiaosheng had looked up the nas, and they were all valuable collectors’ items.
The rich cultural heritage suited a major enterprise.
With these thoughts, Bai Xiaosheng carried a cocktail and admired the oil paintings.
Though he wasn’t particularly knowledgeable about art, with Red Lotus, he could read the nas of the works and the artists below the paintings.
If Bai Xiaosheng wished to know more, with just a thought, the most authoritative interpretations and various perspectives were available to him.
Looking around, it was quite amusing.
Bai Xiaosheng was imrsed in Red Lotus’s tinkling voice, experiencing the beauty of art.
…
At one side of the hall, a mix of n and won surrounded a man.
The man was in his twenties, with skin white and tender as snow, even more refined than a woman’s; built muscles under his suit, every gesture carried a sense of style—it was clear he knew how to play it cool.
At the mont, they would call him a “little fresh at.”
The leading “little fresh at,” now apart from his entourage, walked on the outside of the crowd, animatedly explaining an oil painting to everyone.
He seed to know a lot, as his words often had people nodding in agreent.
Yet, a girl on the very outskirts of the crowd remained calm, showing little reaction.
Compared to the other won in the crowd who had amorous glances and revealing shoulder lines, even flaunting their décolleté, she was dressed elegantly, with just a touch of makeup on her face, not overtly seductive but instead a trace of purity.
“Brother Lu, you are so knowledgeable!”
“Fanyu, you are so impressive!”
There were constant exclamations toward the “little fresh at” ahead.
Lu Fanyu seed sowhat proud, as he had specifically studied oil painting at college to mix with high society, possessing enough knowledge and cultural conversation topics, which were extrely important for an actor’s career.
Besides that, he’s also formally studied various vocal and instruntal music.
Though Lu Fanyu could be arrogant at tis, he had a motto that was incredibly accurate: “At the end of the day, artists compete with culture and cultivation.”
He had done just that, and with his stunning appearance and these talents and charms, he quickly beca a star artist vigorously promoted by Zhongjing dia & Film Departnt.
This ti, at the gathering, Shang Wanwan was invited to play the lead actress in a television drama, with the lead actor being none other than Lu Fanyu.
It’s safe to say, the company was sparing no effort in promoting him.
From here on, my acting career is going to soar to a whole new level!
Lu Fanyu, brimming with pride and enthusiasm, was also showing off his depth by explaining the oil paintings to the crowd.
These people before him were also selected for roles in the drama.
As Lu Fanyu’s gaze passed over looks of admiration, he felt incredibly smug.
However, he accidentally caught the sight of that plain-dressed, tranquil woman in the back and imperceptibly frowned.
This woman, nad Zhao Xiaoying, was presently competing with another actress for the third female lead position.
This Zhao Xiaoying, Lu Fanyu had set his sights on her, wanting to try this type.
He had once flirted with her before.
But, relying on his hitherto unbeatable charms, he was actually rejected.
As a result, he felt quite annoyed with Zhao Xiaoying.
When Lu Fanyu looked her way, Zhao Xiaoying raised her head and their eyes t for a mont.
Hurriedly shifting his gaze, Lu Fanyu quickly moved two steps to the side and pointed at another painting on the wall, saying, “Co, let’s look at this one…”
“Oh no!” Before he could finish, Lu Fanyu let out an exclamation.
Everyone saw him collide with soone nearby, spilling half a glass of cocktail onto his clothes.
“Are you blind!” Lu Fanyu exclaid furiously.
In a mont, he was to et Shang Wanwan!
The person he bumped into, Bai Xiaosheng, was about to apologize when he heard that remark, and his face instantly darkened.
This person is so rude!
“It was you who bumped into and spilled my drink, shouldn’t you be the one apologizing to ?” Bai Xiaosheng looked at him impassively and said calmly.
“Apologize to you?” Lu Fanyu frowned as he scrutinized Bai Xiaosheng, sneered, and spit out disdainfully, “Do you even deserve it?!”
