Capítulo 1925: Chapter 1823: Pursuing the Girl with Sincerity (Part 5)

On the road, Song Xiaoru criticized Song Xiaodong: “Why do you speak so rudely? They’re all Sijie’s relatives, Sijie’s parents were present.”

“Sis, when they were mocking me, Sijie’s parents were also there.” Song Xiaodong was in a bad mood.

“Do you have to talk like that!” Song Xiaoru gave Song Xiaodong a light slap on the shoulder.

“Sis, you weren’t there that day, I was beside you and couldn’t take it anymore. Eldest Uncle’s Wife, Feng Shuo and his wife were talking so horribly. If Xiaodong hadn’t gotten angry, I would’ve.”

“Why are you siding with this jerk! We have to deal with them as relatives in the future!”

“Those kind of relatives don’t count as relatives! They just think about how to mock people all day. Disgusting.” Li Sijie thought about it and found it annoying as well.

“Alright, let’s consider this matter settled.” Song Xiaoru said.

“This is settled, but there are other things not done yet.” Song Xiaodong thought.

“By the way, Li Fengsheng told me he wants to treat you to a meal.” Li Sijie said to Song Xiaodong.

“When?” Song Xiaodong asked.

“Tomorrow, I guess. After this matter is settled, it’s his turn.” Li Sijie said.

“I have something planned tomorrow, you and Sis go.” Song Xiaodong said.

“Why should I go?” Song Xiaoru asked.

“You can represent me.” Song Xiaodong said.

“Xiaodong, don’t let Sis represent you, Fengsheng might ask her to arrange a mayor for him and Sis would agree.” Li Sijie said with a laugh.

“Who said that, I’m not stupid.” Song Xiaoru replied.

“Sis, you are not stupid, you’re just too kind! People give you things asking for favors, and you take it for Xiaodong, hahaha.”

“If I don’t take it, they’d stand there awkwardly with the gift. It’s rude!” Song Xiaoru argued.

“See, that’s why you’re kind! They are so arrogant, I’ve wanted to teach them a lesson for a long time!”

“What are you doing tomorrow?” Li Sijie asked.

“Business talks.” Song Xiaodong raised an eyebrow.

The next day. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

“Yingying, call the Great Director.” Song Xiaodong said to Xiao Yingying.

“What for?”

“What for? To shoot a film, you arranged the location, finished the casting couch, how can we not shoot the film.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll call.”

Xiao Yingying then called the Great Director.

“Great Director, are you free?”

“So, we wanted to talk about cooperation, our new drama needs to start filming!”

“Alright, let’s meet at my Film and Television City.”

Xiao Yingying hung up the phone and asked Song Xiaodong: “What are you up to now?”

“Let me ask you, is there any male actor in your company that you’d like to promote heavily?” Song Xiaodong asked.

“Yes, the one I showed you the other day, Lin Youlun, he’s good. Hardworking, perceptive.”

“How do you think he’d do in the Great Director’s new drama?” Song Xiaodong asked Xiao Yingying.

“Sure, of course! If Lin Youlun has such an opportunity, he’d become popular soon.” Xiao Yingying’s eyes lit up.

“But…” Xiao Yingying hesitated.

“What?” Song Xiaodong asked Xiao Yingying.

“Why should I make him popular, only for him to end the contract with me once he’s famous?” Xiao Yingying thought, feeling it might be a bit unfair to Lin Youlun.

“Then what do you plan to do? Do you want to use the casting couch on him?” Song Xiaodong asked.

“Sister Yiyi, help me hit Brother Xiaodong, look what he’s saying.” Xiao Yingying tugged Sun Yiyi’s arm.

“Yes, what nonsense is he saying.”

“Alright, just consider it a goodwill gesture. Once he develops well, it will benefit your career too, he’ll remember you.”

“Fine.”

Song Xiaodong and Xiao Yingying went to Jinhui Film and Television City.

Soon, the Great Director arrived and was very respectful when he saw Song Xiaodong.

After being detained, the Great Director conducted a special investigation and upon discovering Song Xiaodong’s true identity, he was very anxious, teeth chattering. He hasn’t done anything these days, staying home anxiously, waiting for Song Xiaodong to approach him.

That day finally came.

The Great Director had completely lost his previous air, lowered his head in front of Song Xiaodong, not daring to speak.

“Mr. Song, President Xiao.” The Great Director greeted the two with bowed head.

“Look up when you’re talking!” Song Xiaodong shouted at the Great Director.

“Yes, yes.” The Great Director raised his head, not daring to look directly at Song Xiaodong.

“Great Director, our new drama, it still needs to be shot.”

“I’ll follow Mr. Song’s arrangements.” The Great Director softened and became agreeable.

“Follow my arrangements?” Song Xiaodong asked the Great Director.

“Yes, follow Mr. Song’s arrangements.”

“Then I’ll arrange it for you, continue filming the drama, location is here, actors are under my control.”

“Alright, whoever Mr. Song arranges is who we’ll choose.”

“With those words, I feel relieved.”

“Yes, yes.”

“Also, if you don’t film this drama well, I’ll make Minghe cut all investments, making sure you can’t film any more dramas. Got it?” Song Xiaodong asked the Great Director.

“Got it, got it.”

“Get out!”

“Yes, yes!”

“This guy, speak nicely and he won’t listen, you have to scold him to get through.” Song Xiaodong mocked behind the Great Director, who pretended not to hear.

“What are we doing now?” Xiao Yingying asked Song Xiaodong.

“Going to play with mice.”
