Chapter 118: Direct

"Isn't it, purposeful, a little, a little stronger?"

In the afternoon, they met in the tvN parking lot, and the two looked at each other and smiled, but they just nodded and said hello, and they just staggered without any communication.

But the moment they looked at each other, they seemed to immediately know what the other party was here for, and through the other party's eyes, Chi Jingyuan also faintly expected something in his heart.

Sure enough, more than an hour later, he received a call from Pei Xiuzhi......

"Do you want to be so direct?"

Ji Jingyuan looked back at Pei Xiuzhi's eyes, with a little helplessness and weirdness.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, I just have some needs, and I just asked about the general situation, you can think of it as incidental......"

Pei Xiuzhi didn't feel embarrassed at all, walked to the wine cabinet at the back and took a bottle of red wine, opened it very skillfully, and at the same time took out a goblet and began to pour wine.

The sound of the liquid flowing began and ended quickly, she walked behind Chi Jingyuan with a goblet, sat directly on the back of the sofa with her thighs crossed, took a sip and put the wine glass to Chi Jingyuan's mouth, her head moved down, and she said in his ear with a rushing snort: "And can't I make your machismo fully satisfied by doing this?" Do you feel a sense of accomplishment when you are so relied on? ”

The crimson liquid shone brighter in the pale golden light, and a moaning pant sounded in my ears, and a sultry itching sensation stretched from the earlobes to the inside.

"Where do you see that I'm macho?"

Looking at the goblet containing the glowing red wine in front of him, Chi Jingyuan asked with some dissatisfaction, then took the wine glass and took a sip, shook it lightly after taking the wine glass, glanced at it, and under the red nightdress, one of Pei Xiuzhi's big white legs straddled the sofa cushion and hung down next to him.

He directly reached out and placed the goblet flat on the flesh's thigh, pasted the cold cup holder on the soft flesh's skin, and then with a little force, he used the base of the cup to press a faint flesh-red mark on Bai Huahua's leg.

The latter question Chi Jingyuan did not answer, because ...... What Pei Xiuzhi said is actually true.

Being asked or relied on by close people does give people a sense of accomplishment.

Pei Xiuzhi felt a cold coolness on the skin of her thighs, and she trembled slightly when she was stimulated, she was not annoyed at all but laughed, her thighs shook twice, and then she reached out and took the wine glass, and said very naturally: "You don't seem to have ...... Actually, I think if you were a little more macho, maybe it would be more attractive......"

"You filmed a bloody romance drama, and you were tamed by the plot inside?" When Chi Jingyuan heard this, he glanced at her with disgust.

"Cut."

I don't know if I mentioned the 'dog blood romance drama', Pei Xiuzhi snorted dissatisfiedly, raised his head and drank the rest of the red wine in one gulp, and licked the moist corners of his mouth under the light: "And it's not normal to find a man when you encounter difficulties, if you don't look for you, then who do you want me to find?" ”

"Could it be ......" she paused, and asked curiously, "Didn't your eldest daughter ask you for any help?" ”

It seemed that this topic made her very interested, her eyes were full of light, and her speed of speech slowly became faster: "You often encounter some difficulties or harassment in the circle, you must have encountered it at the top level, you should be very clear... Even if the company can block out most of the distractions, it will definitely encounter some ...... privately."

"And even if there is no such thing, the connections in this circle are so important, and the development of the career will be needed...... If you helped, it should be easy to find good resources, right? ”

"Could it be that she didn't ask you for something?"

Pei Xiuzhi's tone was suspicious: "She won't, I don't know ...... you"

Her meaning is obvious, and she thinks that it may be that the eldest daughter doesn't know that her boyfriend's background and resources are very powerful, and she can help her in many things.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan didn't reply directly after hearing her words, but paused for a second, and after recalling, he pursed his mouth lightly, didn't make a sound, but silently gave the answer in his heart:

Seem...... There really hasn't been.

He knew that what Pei Xiuzhi said was right, but after dating for so long, Bae Joo-hyun really hadn't asked him for anything...... Even last time he took the initiative to help her find a TV series role to debut, he felt that the young lady agreed, but she was not so enthusiastic or happy.

In this regard, Bae Joo-hyun's self-esteem is exceptionally strong, and there may be some other reasons.

Although Chi Jingyuan can roughly know some of her thoughts and thoughts under observation, it can be regarded as understanding, but in fact......

But this is also the difference between the young lady and some people.

Ji Jingyuan suppressed some thoughts in his heart and didn't continue the topic, but glanced back with a frown: "I found that you really like to mention her?" ”

Ji Jingyuan's question seemed to poke at Pei Xiuzhi's sore spot, she didn't deliberately make a sultry pose like just now, and said at a significantly faster speed: "Of course, she robbed my man ......"

As she spoke, her other leg also flung across the backrest, squatting directly on the sofa, and as her tone became heavier, her face also surged with a touch of ruddy, and at the same time waved her arms vigorously: "I've worked hard for so long, if she hadn't suddenly popped out, I would have succeeded soon, you know, maybe no matter how hard you work, the news has already been on the ...... She is now my opponent, my enemy! I often mention her, isn't it normal to know more about it? ”

Obviously, Bae Xiuzhi is not as breezy as she used to be, and every time she mentions Bae Joo-hyun, she has a smile on her face.

But at this time, Chi Jingyuan could see that she should hate the young lady.

Of course, he knew that this was normal, because Bae Joo-hyun should be the same...... If you don't hate it, you'll be ghosted.

The tone was a little intense, Pei Xiuzhi exhaled and relaxed, and soon returned to the way she was just now, she didn't know what she remembered, turned her head to look at Chi Jingyuan and asked, "Didn't she ever mention me?" ”

"No ......"

"Didn't ask?"

“……”

"That's not right......" This answer somehow made Pei Xiuzhi a little excited, flashing with memories and thoughts: "I have met her more than once in events before, and I met by chance on TV some time ago, although her expression is normal, but her eyes... Must know my ...... She may not know the specific relationship between me and his male parent, but she must know that I used to be with you, uh-huh~"

"So that's interesting......"

Her tone suddenly became inexplicable, her squatting thighs exerted force, her body Chi Jingyuan moved a little closer, her eyes flashed with curiosity, and she asked softly in a playful tone:

"She knew that I might be close to her boyfriend, but as a legitimate girlfriend, she never exercised her rights, she didn't mention it, and she didn't even ask you about it...... Why is that? At least check it out, right? For example, is there any connection, is there a revival of old love, etc., ......"

She blew softly, and her tone suddenly became dark:

"She doesn't care about my existence at all, so she doesn't care about it......"

"Or ...... Don't dare? ”

There was a commotion in Chi Jingyuan's ears...... He suddenly had a feeling that Pei Xiuzhi's voice control at this time was much stronger than when she was recording.

“……”

He didn't answer Bae Xiuzhi's words, nor did he think about anything because of it...... Because it wasn't really a question, he could easily think of an answer.

After looking at each other quietly for a second or two, Chi Jingyuan exhaled lightly in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face, looked at Pei Xiuzhi's eyes, and replied in a very relaxed tone: "It may also be because... She didn't even have to ask. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Pei Xiuzhi to reply, Ji Jingyuan waved his hand and changed the topic: "How was the audition for "Ghost" today?" Is there a clear hint or reply? ”

Pei Xiuzhi paused for a second and seemed to see something, and also changed the topic with tacit understanding: "I feel okay...... But there was no follow-up, just that he would seriously consider it...... I read the script and character settings, and I think I'm quite suitable for the heroine, what do you think? ”

"I think ......"

Ji Jingyuan turned his head to look at her.

After the script of "Ghost" was changed, the characters of the male and female protagonists have changed dramatically, especially in terms of appearance, in order to match the male protagonist of Chi Jingyuan, the original cute Lori setting of the female protagonist was erased, and the focus was changed to the aspect of excellent appearance.

In particular, it should be very compatible with Chi Jingyuan, and it should have a sense of climbing.

Bae Su-ji's words......

In terms of acting, Ji Jingyuan hasn't seen much of Pei Xiuzhi's works, and he hasn't commented very well.

But the appearance of the word...... He looked at the innocent white face, and the white flesh exposed under the loose red pajamas......

He thought it was quite appropriate.

"Make do with it...... when will "Arbitrary Attachment" be released? Are you sure that the grades may not be very good? ”

Pei Xiuzhi suddenly became lazy, and the whole person was a little listless: "On the seventh of next month, I will be in the KBS Mizuki stall...... I watched the finished film, the picture is pretty good, the texture is good, but what about the plot of the finished product...... Do you know, I actually feel that I see the shadow of "I'm Sorry I Love You" in the context and plot. ”

"I'm Sorry, I Love You" is also the work of Lee Kyung-hee, the writer of "Arbitrary Attachment", and it is also her most popular work...... But that was already a 2004 TV series.

Although I actually think "I'm Sorry" is very good-looking, Ji Jingyuan was still amused by her description.

Pei Xiuzhi has long lost the optimism and vigor when she was competing for the role, and she can't be completely sure when filming, but after the whole drama is filmed, after she carefully watched the finished product, the expectations in her heart immediately fell to the bottom.

"Are you familiar with director Lee Ying-bok?"

Feeling that Ji Jingyuan was starting to think about the right thing, Bae Xiuzhi also became serious: "Sort of, including Park Jin-young PD and director Lee Ying-bok, the relationship is also good, and it has been maintained since the last cooperation, and this audition is actually his relationship, otherwise the recent situation of our company ......"

She shook her head, not finished.

"Hmm......" Chi Jingyuan responded, raised his eyes to the chandelier on the ceiling and thought for a while, and then looked at her again: "If it is really as you said, the results of "Arbitrary Attachment" may not be good, and you really want to win the role of "Ghost" Ji Eunzhuo, it is best to take advantage of the past few days, when "Arbitrary Attachment" is not released, hurry up and move, try to determine it before, or a week before the broadcast, otherwise......

"As far as I know, the crew is also very anxious about the selection of actors, since you are very familiar with director Lee Yingfu, then the relationship on his side, Kim Eun-sook, writer and producer are very optimistic about him, and he still has the right to speak in casting."

Chi Jingyuan still made a decision.

Not to mention the relationship between the two...... In terms of appearance, Pei Xiuzhi is really in line with the heroine's new personality, at least the most suitable one among the several heroine candidates he knows, although the figure is slightly flat, but the face and height do meet the requirements.

That face that can look extremely pure even without dressing up is really very deceptive.

And from his observation, director Lee Yingfu and JYP should really have a good relationship, and Bae Xiuzhi is actually quite competitive, and it doesn't take much effort...... Maybe you won't need his help at that time, and you can already be sure.

“…… You guys try it first, if it doesn't work, I'll figure it out, but I may not be able to return to Seoul during this time on my plane tomorrow morning, and I will ...... then."

“…… What are you looking at? ”

Ji Jingyuan was talking about his thoughts here, but after talking for a long time, he found that Pei Xiuzhi did not respond at all.

As soon as I turned my head, I saw her kneeling on the sofa, staring at him with unblinking eyes, making a look of admiration and longing, and her pupils were still flashing with a reflected incandescent light.

"Do you know how handsome you are right now?"

…………

"Ten days, will this overseas trip last so long?"

"Well, there's a lot of advertising that needs to be filmed...... However, more than ten days is just an estimated time, which may be late or a little earlier. ”

On the morning of July 1, in the VIP room of Incheon International Airport, Ji Jingyuan, who was waiting for the flight, was texting with his daughter.

Although this news has not been publicized within the company at present, it is kept secret, and only the operation team and members of EXO know about it. But of course, he won't hide anything from the young lady.

Bae Joo-hyun has been busy filming her first online drama in the past few days, which can be called getting up early and feeling dark, but I heard that the progress is good, and the online drama that is not long is about to be completed.

“…… I'm afraid I'll miss you, what should I do? ”

"Are you just afraid?"

(Bobo)"

“…… The plane is coming, let's not talk about it, and I'll send you a photo when it lands. ”

"Well, stay safe, sleep for a while when you get dizzy on the plane, and remember to wear an eye patch and neck protection."

"Got it, take it, go."

(Selfie Bobo)"

Ji Jingyuan glanced at the photos he received, turned off his mobile phone with a smile, sorted out his things, and prepared to board the plane with his team.

Soon the plane was speeding down the runway, and soon it broke through the clouds and into the clear blue sky.

In the first class, Ji Jingyuan looked at the relevant materials prepared for him by the company, and listened to Park Jae-hyun's rather detailed introduction:

“…… GUCCI's first collaboration with Peninsula artists, especially idols, was Li Binbin from the mainland, who chose her as the spokesperson for the three product lines of fashion, watches and jewelry, and expanded the product line and regional ...... after the previous cooperation. But overall, the partnership was not particularly successful, and despite the exposure and corresponding publicity, the sales did not increase too significantly...... Even before the new art director took over, the value of the entire brand was on a downward trend. ”

"You and Li Binbin are completely different types of artists, and this cannot be used as a precedent for our cooperation this time."

“…… ACCORDING TO THE DATA WE HAVE GATHERED, THE CONTINUED DEPRECIATION OF THE POUND STERLING IN 2016, WHICH COMBINED WITH THE DECLINE IN MAINLAND AND ASIAN TOURISTS, HAS LED TO A MORE THAN DOUBLE-DIGIT DECLINE IN SALES FOR GUCCI AND ITS PARENT COMPANY. ”

"And in order to reverse this situation, and at the same time cater to the emerging consumers of the post-95s and post-00s, they chose you."

Park Jae-hyun took a document and talked eloquently, obviously making a lot of preparations, and seemed to be much more attentive than Ji Jingyuan himself: "In fact, for these high-end luxury brands, and even all brands, the most important dimension of the commercial value of celebrities is the ability to bring goods, that is, the conversion rate of fan purchases...... To put it bluntly, it can help them sell a little more. ”

"ACCORDING TO INCOMPLETE STATISTICS, GUCCI HAS STRENGTHENED ITS TIES WITH US AND INTERACTED ON SOCIAL PLATFORMS, AND THERE HAS BEEN A SLIGHT BUT SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN SALES, ALTHOUGH THE OVERALL RESPONSE IS NOT OBVIOUS...... HOWEVER, IT IS CERTAIN THAT THE GUCCI CLOTHING YOU HAVE WORN AND THE MOST RECENT YEAR POSTED ON INS WILL SELL OUT QUICKLY THE FOLLOWING DAY, AND ONLINE SALES IN AREAS WHERE XO FANS ARE ACTIVE WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY...... This kind of influence in the peninsula and even in Asia, especially the strong ability to carry goods, which gives GUCCI a high degree of confidence. ”

"GUCCI'S RESURGENCE HAS A LOT TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT THE NEW DESIGN DIRECTOR HAS CHANGED THEIR STRATEGY TO FOCUS ON SOCIAL AND ONLINE SALES, AND THEY DO DIGITAL MARKETING ONCE A MONTH.

They attach great importance to the response of the social platforms of the partners, including fan activity, consumption potential, etc., so far the brand's official Instagram currently has a total of 25 million followers, not much more than you...... Jingyuan: As the artist with the largest number of fans and the most active fans on social platforms on the peninsula, the other party is very satisfied with this. ”

"It means that I became this spokesperson, and it has a lot to do with the fact that I have many INS fans?" Chi Jingyuan put down the information, looked at the agent and asked with a smile.

"Indeed..."

Park Jae-hyun shrugged his shoulders and confirmed the claim.

As he spoke, he took out another stack of documents and handed them to Chi Jingyuan: "This is some information about Mr. Pizza, the current CEO of GUCCI, you should know him, right?" ”

"I don't know." Ji Jingyuan glanced at the photo of a bald man with glasses on it and shook his head.

"I knew it." Park Jae-hyun also smiled: "Then you should know each other by now...... At that time, we should officially sign a contract with him, and as the spokesperson of the region, you will definitely have a meal and chat together, and there will be a lot of contact in related activities in the future...... Speaking of which, he, like Micheli Artistic Director, is a very decisive person who took office last year. ”

"Well, I do."

Chi Jingyuan chuckled and nodded, carefully browsing the CEO information he had just gotten, and trying to memorize the information. Socializing is one of the jobs that belong to celebrities, and Chi Jingyuan is still very serious about work.

"After the official signing of the contract, the advertising shooting will begin, and the overall content and style have been sent by the other party, which is in the document I just gave you...... This time, it has been decided to use the world-famous fashion photographer Sovey Sandpou to shoot the photo, Li Binbin's advertising a few years ago was shot by him, I heard that he is very good at showing the fashion sense of the model, as well as the beauty of Asian women......"

"But I'm a man."

Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but raise his head, interrupting him while looking at his agent in surprise.

Park Jae-hyun waved his hand with a smile and signaled Ji Jingyuan not to be nervous:

"He's good at men, too."
