292: Chapter 292 Unwilling to Fade Away Lu Fanyu_1 292: Chapter 292 Unwilling to Fade Away Lu Fanyu_1 The arrival of Song Changkong and Shang Wanwan sent a wave of excitent through the lobby.
People scattered in every corner of the hall crowded around, their gazes eager.
About three hundred people were present, mostly young artists, as well as handso n and beautiful won from various departnts, all of them yearning to showcase themselves in front of the company’s top leadership and the big star.
Perhaps being noticed by so important figure might an a rapid rise to success.
Beautiful fantasies, everyone has them.
Among these important figures, the general manager, Song Changkong, and the big star, Shang Wanwan, were well known to everyone.
Although Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Changqing had caused quite a stir just now, there were still quite a few people among the crowd who didn’t recognize them.
Now, as people ca together and exchanged information, they learned that these two were the recently prominent deputy managers.
The crowd was astonished and incredulous.
It was unexpected that they were so young and holding such high positions; their prospects were, needless to say, boundless!
And who knew if they were already settled down or if they were still lacking a Mrs.
Deputy Manager… So young won’s eyes wandered over them non-stop, secretly stirring up thoughts.
Compared to each other, Chen Changqing exuded a strict adherence to etiquette and emanated a rich gentlemanly deanor, a result of his rigorous etiquette training.
This made him the focus of more attention; after all, a man with a deep family background was more attractive.
Of course, Bai Xiaosheng also received a lot of attention, but not just from the won; he also had male admirers.
Mr.
Bai was deed an inspirational role model.
“Who do you think is more handso?” Gao Ya couldn’t help pinching Zhao Xiaoying’s arm.
“Bai Xiaosheng,” Zhao Xiaoying replied.
“Drop the ‘maybe,’ be certain, who is the handsost!” Gao Ya asked again.
“Bai Xiaosheng!” Zhao Xiaoying said with determination this ti.
“…”, Gao Ya.
Honestly speaking, at first glance, Gao Ya would have chosen Chen Changqing, because she found him more stylish, but after what happened just now and seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s eloquence and poise, she also leaned towards Bai Xiaosheng in her heart.
Gao Dazhi was all smiles, pulling along several lead actors from the drama to introduce them to Shang Wanwan.
Lu Fanyu also ca over; his role as the male lead was still pending, but he maintained the position of the leading man.
Even Director Gao could not make the final decision on this.
Seeing Lu Fanyu, both Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Changqing had a cold look in their eyes.
Gao Dazhi pressed on with the introductions, and when it ca to the third female lead, he only ntioned Zhao Xiaoying.
For one thing, Zhao Xiaoying was indeed the most suitable candidate, and secondly, Qiuya had offended the two deputy managers and had already been taken down by him.
The actors were all very excited and thrilled in front of Shang Wanwan.
This was a big shot in the entertainnt circle, a true superstar!
In response to their enthusiasm, Shang Wanwan’s smile was calm.
She swept a brief glance over them, her gaze lingering a second longer on the calm and poised Zhao Xiaoying, showing an additional hint of admiration and nodding slightly.
For the others, she simply smiled politely and nodded as she passed by.
Lu Fanyu was initially very excited and hopeful, thinking that with his handso looks and his gentle and refined deanor, Shang Wanwan would show him special favor.
But Shang Wanwan treated him no differently than the others.
This plunged Lu Fanyu’s fervent heart into an icy cold abyss.
“How could this be?!
I, Lu Fanyu, also have so fa, and I’m popular online, not to ntion handso.
How can I be treated the sa as everyone else!
Shang Wanwan should know who I am; she should treat differently…” Lu Fanyu managed a smile on the surface, but inside he was in turmoil.
He was not reconciled to the fact that the extra glance from Shang Wanwan wasn’t ant for him but for Zhao Xiaoying.
Why, what for?
What was Zhao Xiaoying but a third female lead in the script!
Lu Fanyu had hoped to boost his status and overco difficulties by gaining favor from Shang Wanwan, but facing this situation, he found it hard to accept.
“No, I can’t give up yet.
There’s still a chance before this banquet ends!” Lu Fanyu told himself secretly, “I can do it; I must win Shang Wanwan’s favor and support!”
Gao Dazhi observed Shang Wanwan’s deanor closely.
He was also surprised to see Shang Wanwan take an extra look at Zhao Xiaoying, which made him admire Bai Xiaosheng even more.
Earlier, when Bai Xiaosheng showed support for Zhao Xiaoying, he thought it was just out of personal obligation, but now it seed that Mr.
Bai truly had insight!
Look, even the big star Shang Wanwan is giving Zhao Xiaoying a second glance!
Gao Dazhi imdiately decided in his heart that he would allocate more resources to Zhao Xiaoying in the future.
This girl had a promising future!
Actually, Gao Dazhi had misunderstood the situation.
So many newcors were too eager to show themselves, all overzealous, which Shang Wanwan had seen many tis before; it was quite normal for her to take a second look at Zhao Xiaoying, who was unexpectedly calm and gentle.
It ant nothing else…
This shows that sotis, being too dazzling can serve as a foil…
Bai Xiaosheng, watching from the side, gave Zhao Xiaoying a sincere smile filled with blessings.
A girl who stayed true to herself was finally about to welco her own spring.
After eting with these newcors, Bai Xiaosheng, Song Changkong, and Chen Changqing chatted idly with Shang Wanwan for a few monts.
Outside the banquet hall, more guests arrived, and several waves of them ca one after the other.
“These people, it seems like they’ve agreed to co together!” Song Changkong said to Shang Wanwan with a smile, “Miss Wanwan, please wait here for a mont.
Mr.
Bai, Mr.
Chen, and I need to go greet our major investors.”
The major investors had arrived.
Shang Wanwan nodded with a smile.
A big IP TV series would require an investnt of several billion.
The production costs and labor costs were staggeringly high.
From the set design, costus, filming period, post-production, to the expenditures for scriptwriters, directors, actors, cara crews, and other staff, to logistical expenses and operational costs, all required an imnse amount of funds.
Money was truly spent like running water.
To spread the risk and to leverage resources from all parties, even large companies needed to bring in investors.
The people arriving now were the real major investors.
The investors whom Lu Fanyu believed favored him were, in fact, only dium and small-sized investors; the true giants were beyond his reach.
These heavyweights needed to be personally invited by Song Changkong and Shang Wanwan.
And now, they were here.
“Old Zhang, you’ve finally arrived.
Just a mont ago, I was talking about you with Old Zhao.
You’ve acquired another great piece of land recently.
You’re making a fortune!
The land in Zhongjing, you’re about to buy it all up!”
“Li, long ti no see, you’re looking younger and younger.”
“Juncong, you should’ve co earlier.
You’re not a guest at my place; you should be here welcoming old friends with .”
Song Changkong chatted with the guests in a lively manner, treating them like brothers.
At their level, everyone knew each other well.
When greeting each other, they were surprisingly down-to-earth, even more relatable than one might expect.
Bai Xiaosheng and Chen Changqing were introduced by Song Changkong to these heavyweights, who all expressed discreet surprise at the two vice presidents’ young ages, greeting them with great courtesy and politeness.
Zhongjing dia wasn’t like other companies; vice presidents held real power and could even sit on an equal footing with the general manager.
The forr vice president of Zhongjing dia even stood eye to eye with Song Changkong, balancing the power.
Therefore, no one dared to underestimate the vice presidents here, although everyone was a bit curious about why, this ti, Zhongjing dia had two vice presidents!
Upon entering the hall, the investors who noticed Shang Wanwan proactively went over to strike up conversations.
Shang Wanwan responded with ease, her face alight with a smile.
“Mr.
Song and the two vice presidents are not around; my opportunity is here!”
From a distance, Lu Fanyu’s eyes glittered as he walked over.
