Reborn since 2005

After entering the room, Xiyue quickly took out a new pair of slippers for Yan Xin to put on. When she bent down, Yan Xin felt a little embarrassed.

It's a little cold outside now, but there is a heater inside, and when you enter the room, it feels as warm as spring.

It is also for this reason that Xiyue, who stayed at home, did not wear too many clothes, only a white dress, which looked very pure.

When she bent down, Yan Xin was condescending and could see some things from inside the collar that she shouldn't see.

However, he didn't take a closer look and quickly looked away to avoid embarrassment.

Don't look at anything inappropriate, he still understands this principle.

The food was already prepared. After coming in, Zeng Yan asked Yan Xin to sit down, and then she and her niece started serving the food.

There are no high-end ingredients, just a few everyday dishes.

One steamed mutton, one steamed sea bass, one scrambled egg with Chinese toon, and one stir-fried shredded bamboo shoots.

Two meat and two vegetables, it looks quite appetizing.

When the dishes were served, Zeng Yan also said: "These dishes are all made by Xiyue herself. This girl's academic performance is not good, but she is good at cooking."

Yan Xin praised: "Many girls nowadays can't cook, but she can cook, which is already very good."

Xiyue blushed a little and said in a low voice: "It's all home-cooked food, I don't have any cooking skills."

After the food was served, Yan Xin took a bite and praised: "It tastes pretty good. This level is better than most people."

Not to the level of Ellie, but slightly better than his other women's cooking skills.

It’s very good for an 18-year-old girl to have such a level.

"Her grandfather used to be a chef, and she learned a little from him." Zeng Yan explained.

"No wonder, I said that ordinary people can't make this taste." Yan Xin suddenly realized.

I have a better impression of this little girl.

In this day and age, there are really not many girls who are willing to cook and can cook seriously.

I took a bite of each dish and praised her a few more times.

This little girl looked a little reserved. She lowered her head and said nothing most of the time. Sometimes she would look at him secretly, but would quickly look away when she was discovered.

In fact, there is not much age difference between her and Yan Xin. She is over eighteen years old and Yan Xin is not yet twenty-four years old. The difference between them is only more than five years.

But now it looks like she is Yan Xin's junior.

She has such a mentality towards Yan Xin, just like facing her elders.

Yan Xin also had the same mentality, and his tone of speaking to her was like talking to a junior.

He is a person who has been reborn, and his mental age is already older.

What's more, he and Zeng Yan are partners, and he calls Zeng Yan Sister Zeng, which can be regarded as equals.

Calculating it this way, this little girl is indeed a junior.

As an elder, Yan Xin naturally has to show his concern for the younger generation.

I asked what kind of specialties this little girl had and what plans she had for the future.

When asked about her specialties, the little girl became even more shy. She lowered her head and blushed for a long time before embarrassingly saying that she didn't have any specialties. She couldn't sing well and had no acting experience.

In the past eighteen years, the only thing that made her better than her friends was that she learned some cooking skills from her grandfather.

But this obviously has no effect on her dream of becoming a star.

Yan Xin understood that this little girl had no merits, she was just pretty, and she had a dream of becoming a star, so she wanted to come to the capital to pursue her dream.

The story of Brother Bao's transformation from a walk-on to a big star has inspired many young people, and she should be one of them.

This is nothing to laugh at. There are quite a few young people like this. At least she is beautiful and has a better foundation than most people.

And there is also an aunt who is involved in film and television investment.

It’s not surprising to have such a dream.

The little girl knew that it was unlikely that she would develop into the music industry - after she recorded herself singing several times on her mobile phone, she gave up such thoughts.

Now her mind is on acting.

The big stage of life.

Everyone has experience in acting, and most of the time they play different roles on different occasions.

It's just that some people act in front of the camera, and some people act without the camera.

More or less, he has some acting skills.

She thought she could do it too.

——Of course, she said it more modestly. She did not say that she also had acting skills. She just said that she wanted to develop in this area and was willing to learn acting.

Yan Xin also thinks that she is so beautiful, it would be great to be a youth idol.

Others may not have the opportunity, but her aunt is the general manager of a film and television investment company. It is not too difficult to arrange some roles in projects invested by her own company.

To be a youth idol, you don’t need to have strong acting skills, you just need to be lucky.

Therefore, after the little girl expressed her desire to act, he expressed his agreement and asked Zeng Yan to send her to an acting class.

This company has signed more than a dozen artists, all of whom have no basic skills. In order to make their business skills stronger, it has opened acting classes, dance classes and music classes for them, and invited professional teachers to train them.

Normally, there are two classes a week, each class lasts two and a half hours.

Those classes are all staggered. As long as you are willing to study and can learn enough, you can study in every class.

At other times, you can digest what you have learned by yourself, or you can take on jobs—play some supporting roles in projects invested by the company.

Currently, Starlight Film and Television Investment Company does not occupy a dominant position in any project and cannot recommend important roles. However, it is not a problem to recommend one or two characters with a few lines.

Yan Xin asked Zeng Yan to arrange an acting class for the little girl.

And he also gave a suggestion: "If you have time and can endure the hardship, I suggest you practice dancing. You can be considered a monk on the way, so there is no requirement for a high level, but practicing dancing well can make you You’re in better shape, which will help your career.”

Before the little girl opened her mouth, Zeng Yan had already agreed on her behalf:

"No problem, I will let her join the dance class. This girl has no other advantages, but if she is willing to work hard, I believe she can learn well."

When he said this, he glanced at the little girl.

The little girl nodded: "Well, I will definitely learn it well."

The little girl had a very well-behaved attitude. Yan Xin looked satisfied and said to Zeng Yan with a smile:

"She can be considered one of our own. If there is a suitable opportunity, we can let her give it a try."

Zeng Yan was overjoyed and glanced at the little girl again:
"Xiyue, the boss wants to cultivate you, why don't you thank the boss quickly?"

The little girl quickly stood up and bowed: "Thank you, boss!"

Opportunities for acting are not easy to come by.

There are so many extras in Beijing and so many in Hengdian. It is not easy to get even an actor without lines.

It is even more difficult to create a character with a name.

Many extras will never get that opportunity in their lives.

Even beautiful girls don't know how much they have to pay to get such an opportunity. Now if the company is willing to arrange it for her, she can easily get such an opportunity and avoid a lot of unnecessary mistakes.

She also heard Zeng Yan say something about this. Of course she was very excited when she heard Yan Xin say this, feeling that she was one step closer to her dream of becoming a star.

They chatted while eating. After eating, Yan Xin did not leave immediately and chatted for more than an hour.

He asked about Brother Shan Zheng's script. Zeng Yan said that she had already contacted Brother Shan Zheng, and Brother Shan Zheng said that he would come over with the script in two days to have a good talk with them.

She didn't directly tell anyone that she was interested in the project, but asked a mutual acquaintance to recommend Starlight Film and Television Investment Company to Brother Shan Zheng, saying that it was a company with real estate capital behind it and was not short of money at all. She suggested that Brother Shan Zheng Try your luck with this company.

Directly saying that you are interested seems a bit too pushy and will make people look down on you.

Brother Shan Zheng was probably a little anxious because he really couldn't get investment, so he actually called her.

Then she appropriately expressed her interest in this project. The two sides seemed quite speculative, and they made an appointment to meet in the capital in two days.

Yan Xin was very satisfied with this and praised her: "You are very efficient in doing things. You got in touch so quickly."

That is a project that will be a big hit, even more so than the Qing Dynasty drama starring Yang Mi.

Being able to get it in hand is of course the best.

And if you enter the game now, there is a high possibility of taking a dominant position.

If you invest a big part, you will also get a big part of the profits when the time comes.

He remembered that the box office of that movie was more than 1 billion, and the profit could be several hundred million.

Being able to share half of the profits is a lot of money.

Even for him now, that's a huge sum of money.

"Boss, he will be here in two days. Do you want to meet him too?" Zeng Yan asked.

She thought that since the boss liked the bald guy, he would not refuse the opportunity to meet him in real life.

Yan Xin thought for a moment and still refused:
"I may not be free, so let's forget it this time. See you again when we have a chance."

He doesn't have much interest in meeting celebrities - he's not a beautiful female star, he's just a middle-aged bald man, so what's there to see?

He has a bit of social anxiety and doesn't like to interact with people he doesn't know well. He feels that such social interactions are a waste of time and will make him feel uncomfortable.

Anyway, the decision to invest in this project has already been made. Whether we see it or not, it is not that important.

Just let professionals do professional things.

What he can do is to make some comments on the starring actors and the script to see if it is the same as the film he remembers.

There is nothing else that requires his involvement.

His answer surprised Zeng Yan - don't you like that bald head? Why didn't we meet when we had the chance?

Then he thought: "Does it mean that he doesn't like the middle-aged bald man himself, but his wife does? He said that he also likes the bald man just to please his wife?"

The more I think about it, the more I realize this is true.

In line with the principle that the landlady also wants to curry favor, he cautiously asked: "Then, do you want your wife to come over and meet her?"

Yan Xin gave her a strange look: "My wife doesn't participate in our company's investment decisions. What did she do in the past? And she has to study, so she doesn't have time to see her."

Zeng Yan said nothing more.

I was thinking: "Is his wife liking a male celebrity and he is jealous?"

Xiyue heard from Zeng Yan that the boss was married and the wife had founded a big company.

Now that I heard that the landlady is still studying, I suddenly felt ridiculous.

She has already left school, but the wife of her boss, whom she regards as her elder, is actually still studying in school.

It's a little too strange.

After Yan Xin left, she couldn't help but ask Zeng Yan:

"Auntie, how old is the boss lady? Why are you still studying?"

Zeng Yan said: "I am only three or four years older than you, and I am currently in my senior year."

"So young?" Xiyue exclaimed.

"Yes, so young!" Zeng Yan also sighed.

She is in her 30s. She has been in the entertainment industry for more than ten years and has gained some status.

But compared with Feng Xi, a young man in his early twenties, he was nothing.

People really can't be compared with each other, and the gap is too big.

He took another look at the little girl in front of him. She knew nothing and knew nothing. Apart from being prettier, she was worse than herself before.

But there was one thing that made her a little envious - she was luckier than herself.

When she came to the capital to work hard, she had nothing. To get to where she is today, she paid a heavy price.

Basically, she has already given everything she can give.

Including human dignity.

But from the beginning, this little girl had an aunt like herself who was the general manager of a film and television investment company, so it was easy for her to get acting opportunities.

——If she had had such an opportunity, whether she was behind the scenes or in front of the stage, she would not be like this now, and there would be no need to pay such a high price and make her life full of holes.

Thinking of this, and fearing that this little girl would not understand the value of this opportunity, he took her hand and said to her:

"Xiyue, you have to understand that the boss can agree to me signing you and is willing to train you. That is a very rare thing. This is an opportunity that many girls struggle to get. Now this opportunity If it falls on you, you must cherish it and don’t waste this opportunity.”

"I know, aunt, I will work hard." Xiyue said seriously.

"There may be only one opportunity to change your destiny in a person's life. If you miss it, you will miss your life. Now such an opportunity has been placed in front of you. What you have to do is not just work hard, but fight hard. Try your best to seize this opportunity at all costs. Otherwise, you will only be mediocre in this life." Zeng Yan said.

Xiyue nodded vigorously again.

After a while, Zeng Yan said again:

"When I say this at all costs, I mean that when necessary, you need to give everything you have. Do you understand?"

She looked at the little girl.

The little girl suddenly felt a lot of pressure and felt a little panicked.

He couldn't help but avoid her eyes.

"Do you understand what I mean?" Zeng Yan asked again.

The little girl understood what she meant and didn't answer.

"If you are not willing to pay the price, I think you can change your mind now and stop having this dream. This is how the world is, and it's not that easy to be a star." Zeng Yan said.

After a moment of silence, the little girl finally spoke:

"I understand, aunt."

"Are you willing to pay that price?"

"I...I am willing..."
