Chapter 22: Forming an alliance with Director Xiao Wu

"I've lost weight, do I look good?" I asked her.

"Good-looking, the boys in our class all say that you are a thief and cute, I said that this is my sister, they don't believe it, they don't look like it at all! I'm. "Eve never had a city in her heart, and she had one thing to say.

"I'm stunned by this video, let's not talk about it, I have a call coming in here." I was in a hurry to answer Director Xiaowu's call.

"Don't, I still haven't said anything serious, grandpa is about to turn seventy, dad ordered me to tell you in advance that you must come back when the time comes, otherwise send me to drag you home......"

I, a person who is about to be forgotten by the world, suddenly attract attention, how can I feel so stressed!

Director Xiao Wu asked me to talk about things again, saying that there were new projects to work on.

Yang Yali also called, saying that the video was so successful, and asked me to thank her for introducing Director Xiaowu to me. He also said that the best way to thank him is to ask Garvey to go to their company to meet Man Tianhao.

Plainly, I still owe her a favor.

"Garvey, what do you think?"

I was so anxious that I couldn't think at all, so I could only type in the original words to Garve.

"Master, the situation is opening up, we are moving towards achieving our goal, you have to be calm and calm, this is just the beginning." Garvey said with a smile.

"Huh? Just getting started? Which of these scattered pieces of information is the beginning of achieving the goal? ”

"First, continue to cooperate with Director Xiao Wu."

"But I don't know what he's going to do?"

"The frequent forwarding of this advertisement will inevitably bring him some market attention, and his career that has been sluggish will also take a turn for the better, so I expect that in terms of cooperation content, the owner has the advantage and initiative." Garvey speculated.

"And the second?" I asked.

Garvey looked at me, then smiled strangely, "Let's go see Mantianhao." ”

"Huh? We? Man Tianhao said he wanted to see you, but he didn't say he wanted to see me. "When I heard that I was going to see him, my heart was throbbing.

"He'll want to see you." Garvey smiled even more secretly.

"How so? He doesn't even know me anymore. ”

"My little master, the way you look at cerebral palsy is so cute. Your sister's classmate is right, you're cute now, and the sky will want to see you. ”

"Really? Am I cute now? Garvey, how much weight do I weigh? Will Tianhao recognize me......" I asked incoherently.

Garvey suddenly hugged me.

I don't know why, but I feel that this hug is extra powerful and reassuring.

"The owner is very cute and very beautiful, and those who retweet the video are proof that a cute and beautiful girl will speak their minds, and there will be a crazy forwarding phenomenon."

"Then do you think Man Tianhao will like a girl like me?" I still don't have the slightest confidence in him.

"We can find a way to make him like you, as for the outcome, it's up to fate." Garvey let me go.

"Well, I don't really want to be so deliberate, and I can't do anything that is likable."

"The master's weight has now dropped to 130 pounds, keep coming up!"

After Garvey finished speaking, he turned to leave, looking at his back, I was in a trance.

Now all this, he is arranging, advancing, I am like a puppet operated by him, although I do everything I want, but with my personal ability, I can't do it at all, everything depends on this robot's system to make decisions, this feeling is so strange.

Director Xiao Wu asked me to meet at a café in the city center.

It was a stylish café where groups of three or several people were talking.

Director Xiao Wu occupied a corner of the café, and when I entered, he was having two guests get up to say goodbye.

"How's it going, my mobile office environment isn't bad?" Director Xiao Wu's desk is full of computers, documents, and bags...... It's like they've used it as a makeshift office.

"Not bad." I say.

"I didn't expect the effect of this public service advertisement to be so good, and now several companies are talking to me about making films, Xia Xue, are you willing to cooperate with me for a long time? The client mentioned that you should continue to appear on camera. Director Xiao Wu looked full of ambition.

"Really?" I was a little surprised, as Gavi had speculated.

"Now businesses attach great importance to the online market, and there is a fixed amount of self-media advertising every year, but there are very few effects that can be forwarded naturally like this advertisement, so this success is easy to attract customers."

"Congratulations!" Seeing the success of director Xiao Wu is also an exciting thing.

"Xia Xue, I thank you very much, the biggest highlight of this advertisement is actually you. If you keep working with me, I guarantee we can create a lot of these miracles. ”

"But you guys, I don't know anything, what can I do?" I don't really know what kind of partnership capital I have.

"You don't have to understand anything, you are a natural actor, although not a beauty at first sight, but you have a special aura. In particular, your face shape is very suitable for the camera, and if you can be thinner, it will be more beautiful under the camera. ”

Director Xiao Wu made me a little dizzy, and I couldn't believe that my former bun face had now become a photogenic face.

"Okay, so how exactly do we work together?" I asked.

"In the specific way, I have drawn up a contract here, you can take a look first." Director Xiao Wu took out a contract of several pages and handed it to me, it seems that he has been prepared.

I was dizzy when I read the contract, so I had to scan it hard, as if mentioning the specific appearance fee, and the proportion of the film that he introduced me to filming, etc. I looked at him in confusion.

"Why is there a share of the film?"

"Because other directors are already asking you for the price of your appearance."

"I didn't want to do this professionally, my major was fashion design."

"It doesn't matter, you can take it if you want to, and if you don't want to, you won't take it. It's just that if you take the shot, I'll share it with you. The main thing is, I'm talking about a public service announcement for depression, and I want you to appear on camera, can you take a look? ”

"What do you want me to do?"

"The content is to play a girl who suffers from depression, and then through active treatment, insisting on exercising, and opening her heart, she becomes cheerful. You just have to shoot some life shots, which are actually similar to the previous one. ”

I'm a little hesitant, am I going to play a hypochondriac? I'd like to ask Garvey what he thinks.

"I'm going to go back and think about it before I reply to you." Hehe, this time I answered as quietly as Garvey.

"Okay, it's better to be faster, the customer is still urging very tightly." Director Xiao Wu gave me a copy of the contract and asked me to study it carefully and reply to him as soon as possible.

After returning home, Jia Wei read the contract and said that although the conditions given by Director Xiao Wu were a bit harsh, he could still sign a contract with him.

"Why? The reason? I asked curiously.

It turned out that Jia Wei thought that most of the advertisements taken by Director Xiao Wu were mainly public service advertisements, which were broadcast on mainstream platforms, and the content was relatively positive and clean, which was beneficial to my image.

Another factor is that I don't have a network foundation in film and television, and if I can establish a relationship through Director Xiaowu, it will also be a benign channel that is beneficial to future development.

"But I don't want to develop in film and television in the future! Why build a relationship? I asked.

"Master, do you know why your work Yang Yali can sell it when he takes it, but you can't even find a job?" Gavi asked about the pain in my heart.

"Because she's pretty, I'm not pretty."

"It's just one factor, and it's a secondary factor. Fashion designers, not a few are particularly pretty. Garvey said.

It seems that this is also the case, in the fashion circle, most designers are very ordinary.

"And what's the reason?" I asked.

"No matter what industry people do, if they want to succeed, they must have a network base and form a mutually beneficial relationship in order to get more opportunities, and the master just hasn't established this circle."

"Garvey, you're right." I suddenly realized that I used to rarely take the initiative to socialize and establish relationships with people because of my fat and low self-esteem. And Yang Yali has been very good at building relationships and circles since he was in school. But there is actually a big problem here, that is, the fashion circle, which is more beautiful, and it is not easy to mix without face. Yang Yali is more beautiful and concerned than me, and she takes the initiative to pull relationships, so she has more contacts.

Only now did I know I had this problem.

"So now the master has to find a way to build a network of contacts, Director Xiao Wu has just opened up the situation in his field, the master can give him benefits to help him succeed, and he will also use his resources to bring social impact to the master, this is mutual benefit and mutual assistance."

I see.

I signed a contract with Director Xiao Wu without saying a word.

He was happy that night, and so was I.

We went to the bar to celebrate the signing of the contract and opened a bottle of red wine to congratulate the two of us on our business alliance ever since.

Garvey was there, but didn't stop me. I was very pleased with his decency.

But the tragedy is that I didn't take a few sips and I fainted and vomited.

Drinking the mushy stomach, it seems that it can't tolerate alcohol, and there are bursts of colic.

Gwich carried me out of the bar's restroom.

"Xia Xue, are you okay?" Xiao Wu asked with concern.

"I'm fine, I just haven't drunk for a long time and I'm not used to it." I say.

"She's losing weight, it's not suitable for drinking, let's drink a glass of hot water." Garvey said.

"Oh, it's a must, if the next ad can be a little thinner, it would be great!" Xiao Wu said.

The two of them sang and drank, poured me some hot water, and then unanimously decided that my best place was to go home and sleep.

Belch...... That's the end of my nightlife.

Director Xiao Wu drove me and Jia Wei to the gate of the community.

"Gavi, please! Take care of Xia Xue! It must make her healthy and beautiful! "Xiao Wu said goodbye to us.

Garvey carried me into the community.

The night was a little deep, and there was no one around, except for the shadows of the trees.

Garvey and I walked shoulder to shoulder. Seeing the two shadows on the ground makes me feel so happy.

"Garvey, are you happy now?"

Garvey nodded.

"Talk, what are you thinking?" I asked.

"I didn't think about anything, I was feeling happy." Gawida.

"And what do you think it's like to be happy?"
