Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years
Chapter 674 A Little Trampling
Announcement: Update coming soon, please stay tuned!
Li Haoyu spoke up first.
"Alright, just kidding. Do you think I'm that petty?"
He then waved to Qiu Yingying on the other side: "What's your job as a secretary? The guests have been here for so long, why haven't you brought them a cup of hot tea?"
Qiu Yingying also breathed a sigh of relief.
She had been by Li Haoyu's side for a while and had sensed the tense atmosphere between the two.
Qiu Yingying hesitated for a long time, wondering whether she should say a few good words for Andy.
Fortunately, the atmosphere eventually calmed down.
Qiu Yingying immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "I'll go make some tea right now."
"Thank you for your hard work, Yingying."
Andy thanked him.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qiu Yingying leave.
In fact, Andy was able to get directly to Li Haoyu's office thanks to Qiu Yingying's help.
However, the situation was urgent.
She didn't even have a chance to thank Qiu Yingying.
After all, this is Li Haoyu's territory. Qiu Yingying is his secretary. It would seem a bit obsequious to start exchanging pleasantries with her right away.
Andy had been wanting to find an opportunity to thank Qiu Yingying.
Now that she finally had the chance, she first expressed her gratitude.
However, it's not appropriate to say too much at this time and place.
Andy decided to thank them properly later.
However, Andy had a feeling that Qiu Yingying and Li Haoyu's relationship was not just a simple working relationship.
The main problem is that Qiu Yingying's demeanor was too casual.
This is, after all, her boss's office.
It's one thing for Qiu Yingying to be dressed so casually.
The most outrageous thing was that before she left, she actually patted Li Haoyu on the shoulder. This is extremely rude in a workplace superior-subordinate relationship.
This relationship doesn't seem right.
Andy looked at Li Haoyu with suspicion.
But I found that his expression was normal... Maybe I was just overthinking it.
Andy smiled again, his attitude even more positive than before.
"How about I continue to explain the plan to you?"
Li Haoyu shook his head. "Since you've put it that way, I'll just tell you the truth. You don't need to say anything more today; it's pointless anyway."
Andy's heart sank after hearing this.
But she remained calm: "Has our company been eliminated? If so, can you give me a reason?"
Li Haoyu noticed that Andy remained so calm even after suddenly hearing the "bad news".
He knew that this little trick would be a sure kill for Qiu Yingying.
But that wouldn't work for Andy.
Therefore, Li Haoyu decided to do the opposite.
"I've already decided to put you in charge of this case; there's absolutely no need to waste my breath explaining it again."
Andy: ? ? ?
She was momentarily stunned, wondering why things had taken such a dramatic turn.
That was a bit too sudden.
However, Andy was not overwhelmed by the unexpected joy.
But she could hardly contain her excitement.
Andy stood up abruptly and asked excitedly.
"Is this for real? Are there any hidden conditions?"
Li Haoyu simply waved his hand.
"What's the difference between real and fake? Do you think I'm the kind of person who talks nonsense irresponsibly? I won't make any unreasonable demands, but could you please finish filming the promotional video for me?"
Li Haoyu stared at Andy, even licking his lips.
Andy involuntarily shrank back.
She hesitated for a moment.
"This promotional video is still..."
Andy originally intended to refuse,
But she backed down under Li Haoyu's aggressive gaze.
"Let's just take a quick picture then."
Li Haoyu nodded upon hearing this.
"Then I'll just call the actors in directly. I'm all ready."
Andy looked surprised when he heard this.
Can actors really be prepared in advance?
She suddenly felt like she had boarded a pirate ship.
Andy suddenly felt a little regretful.
Her intuition told her that she had made a mistake.
..............
At this moment, Qiu Yingying also returned.
Li Haoyu noticed it too.
This was Qiu Yingying deliberately giving the two of them some time alone.
This girl has become a little smarter.
There's nothing wrong with this approach, but the biggest problem is that Qiu Yingying doesn't side with him.
It seems her lesson wasn't enough.
Li Haoyu decided to deal with Wan Andi's matter; he needed to punish Qiu Yingying properly.
However, Qiu Yingying is clearly not mature enough.
She asked, looking rather naive, "Why are you two just standing there like idiots? Hurry up and sit down, I'll make you some tea. This is genuine pre-Qingming Longjing tea, a real gem from the bottom of my chest."
Li Haoyu glanced at Qiu Yingying, this "traitor".
"Thank you for your hard work, but you don't need to make tea. Since both of you main actors are here, why don't you come with me to the film set?"
"Ah! Are you serious?"
Qiu Yingying said with some surprise.
"When have I ever joked with you?"
Li Haoyu said with certainty.
This is not Li Haoyu putting on a brave face.
Li Haoyu actually knows quite a few film crews, especially the assistant directors of many of them.
As for why they have such a good relationship: simply because they each have something the other wants.
It just so happened that a film crew wanted to use Li Haoyu's office to film a drama at that time.
By then, Li Haoyu had already earned his first pot of gold.
Although Snail Games is not yet the dominant force it is today, it is a rising star studio with a small reputation.
Although the studio is not located in a top-tier office building like the Financial Tower, it is still a first-class Grade A office.
Li Haoyu himself had worked at a television station for a long time. He knew that those assistant directors were only glamorous on the surface, and didn't actually have much money in their pockets.
He intended to make friends.
Li Haoyu lent his office to the film crew for shooting.
Over time, he became quite good friends with many assistant directors. He even earned the nickname "Generous Young Master Li" in Shanghai's film and television industry.
Of course, those assistant directors were all shrewd people, and they would introduce some pretty girls to Li Haoyu as a reward.
Those assistant directors took so long.
Most of them have become pillars of the entertainment industry.
Li Haoyu let them get away with this for so long for free.
Finally, there's a chance for them to put in some effort.
He wouldn't let this rare opportunity slip by.
............
The film crew that Li Haoyu arranged to meet this time was by the sea.
This was definitely not something he wanted to see Andy and Qiu Yingying in their swimsuits.
It was purely by chance.
"Boss, is this really a legitimate film crew?"
Qiu Yingying looked at Li Haoyu walking ahead:
Her tone couldn't help but carry a hint of doubt.
Even Andy nodded in agreement this time.
Li Haoyu looked at the scenery on the yacht not far away.
His eyes suddenly lit up.
"How is it inappropriate? It's a movie about beach volleyball. This is perfectly normal."
Li Haoyu immediately adopted a righteous and stern attitude.
This left the two people behind him speechless.
Li Haoyu had just arrived at the yacht.
A burly, fat man greeted them warmly.
"This really made this place shine, but I just finished filming the beach volleyball scene. You probably won't get to see it this time."
Li Haoyu rolled his eyes at him disdainfully.
"I'm not as bad as you make me out to be. I was just appreciating it from an artistic perspective. Don't label me like that. If they misunderstand, it's entirely your fault."
Li Haoyu introduced them with a smile.
"This is Director Wang Tian, one of my close friends. He's quite capable at making things; he's the director I chose for the promotional video."
Andy still took the initiative to greet him.
"Hello, nice to meet you."
On the contrary, Qiu Yingying seemed a bit awkward, stammering for a long time without saying anything.
Clearly, she didn't have a good impression of Wang Tian.
This is not because Qiu Yingying dislikes fat people.
Although Wang Tian does look very greasy.
More so because she had already seen a group of bikini-clad fairies on the yacht deck.
The headlights on each of the girls' cars were so big they were blinding.
This made Qiu Yingying feel ashamed of herself.
She even secretly looked down to confirm... he was only a tiny bit younger than them!
How could she possibly have a good impression of Wang Tian?
Seeing Qiu Yingying's hesitant and shy demeanor, Li Haoyu...
He simply pulled Qiu Yingying upstairs.
Andy had no choice but to follow.
…………..
Wang Tian led Li Haoyu and the two women onto the yacht.
The actresses, who had been whispering to each other, suddenly fell silent.
This is the influence a director has on set.
Not to mention that Wang Tian is not only the director, but he also serves as the producer. This proves that he has absolute power on the film set and is not a tool of capital at all.
This is partly due to Wang Tiandao's status as a second-generation descendant.
The other half is because every film he makes, regardless of its critical reception, is incredibly profitable. This is the source of Wang Tianyi's confidence, which allows all the actresses to boo him when he appears on screen.
Wang Tian whispered a few words to the assistant director beside him.
He led the three of them to the yacht's luxurious private room.
Not long after, the most beautiful actresses who had been on the deck also came in.
There are no other boys present besides him and Li Haoyu.
Wang Tian took the initiative to take on the task of warming up the crowd.
"Don't be shy, everyone. It's fate that we met. You'll all be video-making partners together from now on."
"I'll just throw out an idea to get the ball rolling. My name is Wang Tian, and I'm a fairly successful director of commercial films."
"I'm in charge of directing the promotional video this time. Also, the male lead is the only handsome guy on set, and he's an investor in this film."
"Let me make it clear first, although I'm the director this time, the entire concept originated from President Li, so all of you must follow his arrangements."
"If necessary, I might even replace you. If you don't obey, you might not even have a foothold left. I'm not joking. You should know that even the yacht we're standing on belongs to President Li."
"So everyone needs to be on their toes."
"Otherwise, if President Li gets very angry, the consequences will be severe."
Wang Tian finished speaking in a joking manner.
"So everyone needs to be on their toes."
"Otherwise, if President Li gets very angry, the consequences will be severe."
Wang Tian finished speaking in a joking manner.
Everyone in the audience had their own little thoughts.
The most obvious example is those actresses.
They acted to become famous, and fame was just for making money. Now they have a wealthy and powerful backer. Why bother going through all those detours?
Isn't this the best shortcut?
Qiu Yingying was also dumbfounded.
She also remembered who this Wang Tian was.
Qiu Yingying herself has watched many of his comedy films.
He's a well-known director, after all, yet he acts like Li Haoyu's lackey. That shameless flattery gave her goosebumps.
Even the most composed Andy couldn't help but swallow hard.
If you ask her to do business negotiations or handle complicated accounts.
Andy was very confident that he could do a great job.
But the situation before her was completely beyond her comprehension.
Andy prided herself on being knowledgeable and worldly-wise, but she had absolutely no idea what Li Haoyu would do next.
She could only watch Li Haoyu longingly.
Now everyone's attention was focused on Li Haoyu.
"It's nice to meet everyone today. Don't feel pressured, it's just a company promotional video."
"However, I think the first step is still important, which is to let everyone get to know me simply."
As Li Haoyu spoke, he took out his phone and showed a QR code: "I've created a group. Please scan the code to join. This will make it easier for me to communicate with everyone."
This explanation took everyone by surprise.
The atmosphere at the scene instantly became subtle.
Even Wang Tian, a veteran in the entertainment industry, was stunned.
In fact, Wang Tian received a call from Li Haoyu.
He took immediate action.
Wang Tian's initial plan was to have the most beautiful actresses from the crew accompany him. Furthermore, "Beach Volleyball" was originally a comedy that relied on sensuality, a perfect fit for his profession.
But to his utter surprise, Li Haoyu didn't come by himself.
Instead, he brought two beautiful women with him.
Qiu Yingying looked dull and not very smart.
The other woman, Andy, was quite good-looking and had a great figure, but she had a cold, expressionless face, as if someone owed her money.
The most crucial aspect is the relationship between these three people.
Wang Tian didn't seem so innocent either.
Is it a love triangle or a master with two servants?
Wang Tian got a headache just thinking about it.
How could he possibly manage such a complex web of relationships?
Wang Tian was genuinely worried.
Unexpectedly, Li Haoyu made another bombshell declaration in public.
He actually wanted to look at all the contact information of the two girls he brought with him, not letting a single one slip by.
Is Li Haoyu really that hungry?
If he's interested, he can contact me privately.
Why doesn't he just arrange the room keys?
However, Wang Tian, being a man himself, had to admit it.
Li Haoyu's flirting style can truly be described as domineering.
He's actually kind of handsome.
At this point, Andy, who had been observing from the sidelines, could no longer hold back.
She gave Li Haoyu a look, signaling her to go outside and talk.
Li Haoyu understood and followed.
The two arrived at the empty deck.
Now their conversations are undisturbed.
Andy couldn't hold back any longer: "Mr. Li, are you joking with me?"
"Or are you trying to get my attention with this clumsy tactic?"
This time, their aggression was truly at its peak.
Li Haoyu smiled and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Andy was stunned, and after a long while, he said, "Didn't you do this on purpose? You deliberately used the snail game as bait to lure me in. And you did something so ridiculous."
The smile on Li Haoyu's face gradually faded.
His expression turned cold.
"Andy, do you deserve it?"
