Rebirth of wealth and freedom starts from the World Cup

Chapter 294 All Men Are the Same

Half an hour later, Zhao Zixuan met Luo Qiuyun and Kuang Tingting, who were also wearing ancient costumes, as he wished.

Sheng Minglan, played by Luo Qiuyun, is the heroine of "Knowing". She is a smart and tough female character who relies on her wisdom and perseverance to find her own place in the complicated family and court struggles.

Luo Qiuyun's styling is exquisite and elegant, her clothing is light in color yet dignified, and her hairstyle and makeup reflect the style of the Song Dynasty, which is consistent with the role of Sheng Minglan she plays.

She stood there, as if she had walked out of the scroll of history, giving people a gentle and restrained temperament, which is exactly the deep impression that Sheng Minglan left on people.

Kuang Tingting plays Danju, Sheng Minglan's personal maid. Her outfit contrasts with Luo Qiuyun's. Her clothes are more simple, which is in line with her identity as a maid, but her expression reveals loyalty and alertness. She is obviously a trustworthy partner of Sheng Minglan in the play.

Zhao Zixuan spoke highly of the two's costumes and character performances. He felt that Luo Qiuyun's Sheng Minglan was more bright and charming than Zhao Liying's Sheng Minglan, and at first glance, she seemed to be closer to the profound meaning of the word "Minglan".

The character of Danju, played by Kuang Tingting, has distinct characteristics. Although she is much inferior in appearance, it is enough for a maid to behave properly and not steal the show.

The shaping of an actor's character not only depends on the actor's acting skills, but also on details such as costumes, makeup and props. Together, they constitute the complete image of the character, allowing the audience to better immerse themselves in the plot.

The crew of "Knowing" did a great job on these details.

As a historical TV series, the success of "Knowing" lies not only in the fact that it tells a fascinating story, but also in its accurate restoration and artistic presentation of Song Dynasty culture.

Luo Qiuyun's styling of Sheng Minglan, whether it is the color matching of clothing or the choice of hair accessories, strictly follows the aesthetic standards of the Song Dynasty, while also retaining the aesthetic tastes of modern audiences, making the character both historical and fashionable.

Danju, played by Kuang Tingting, is an indispensable supporting role for Sheng Minglan.

Although she may not be as dazzling as the protagonist in terms of visual effects, she undertakes the important task of supporting the development of the protagonist's character.

In the play, Danju's loyalty and intelligence provide the necessary support for Sheng Minglan's growth, and also add layers and depth to the story.

"Qiu Yun, Ting Ting, your outfits today are really eye-catching."

Zhao Zixuan looked at Luo Qiuyun and Kuang Tingting, who were dressed in ancient costumes, with admiration in his eyes.

He nodded to Luo Qiuyun first: "Qiuyun, your portrayal of Sheng Minglan is very insightful. You not only captured the surface characteristics of the character, but also dug deep into her inner world. Your eyes and body language reveal a maturity and depth beyond your age, which is exactly the portrayal of Sheng Minglan's gradual growth in the complex family relationship."

Then, he turned to Kuang Tingting and said seriously: "Then Tingting, your interpretation of Danju is equally impressive. Your performance is natural and smooth, without any affectation. You make the character of Danju three-dimensional and real. She is not only Sheng Minglan's personal maid, but also an indispensable supporter in her life."

"You have done a good job of balancing the character's loyalty and personality, making Danju a character that the audience can easily resonate with. Your performance proves that even a supporting role can become a beautiful landscape in the plot through delicate emotional expression and just the right interaction."

Hearing this, Luo Qiuyun and Kuang Tingting felt greatly encouraged. They held hands, their eyes bright.

Finally, Zhao Zixuan concluded: "You two's cooperation and professionalism are precious assets of our studio. I hope we can continue to move forward hand in hand, and constantly improve our acting skills while pursuing art. Your performance today is already outstanding, but I believe that as long as you keep working hard, you can reach higher heights."

After listening to the comments, Yang Chuchu couldn't help but ask: "Boss, if "The Untamed" or "Do You Know" is broadcast, which one do you think will be more popular?"

This question also aroused the curiosity of the other three women. They all looked at Zhao Zixuan, expecting his answer.

Seeing how serious they were, Zhao Zixuan thought for a while before saying:

"I think the storylines of The Untamed and The Story of Minglan are different, and it's hard to directly compare which one will be more popular because they attract different audience groups."

“The Untamed, with its unique plot, character setting and strong visual impact, is able to attract a large number of young audiences and fans of the original novel. The highlight of its story is that it constructs a world full of fantasy, while also touching on the deep emotional resonance of human nature.”

"And "Knowing or Not" is a work that pays more attention to the historical atmosphere and the inner portrayal of the characters. It shows the living conditions and emotional world of ancient women through delicate narrative."

"If I have to predict which one will be more popular, I think it depends on the market environment, publicity and audience's immediate reaction when it is broadcast. However, both dramas have the potential to become phenomenal works. The key lies in how to grasp the hearts of the audience and make them find resonance in the story. Whether it is "The Untamed" or "Knowing Your Destiny", as long as they can touch people's hearts, they have the potential to become classics."

……

Zhao Zixuan's answer was unanimously agreed upon by the four women. They all knew that whether a work can become a hit depends not only on its own quality, but also on many external factors.

Luo Qiuyun analyzed, "Indeed, The Untamed has a huge fan base, and its plot and character settings are very attractive, especially the deep friendship between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji, which can touch the hearts of many viewers. To be honest, sometimes I want to swap roles with Ding Ding, I will play Jiang Yanli, and Ding Ding will play Sheng Minglan..."

Ding Xiaoying smiled softly and responded, "I'd love to switch roles with you, but I'm afraid someone won't agree."

At the end of her speech, she deliberately glanced at Zhao Zixuan, and it was obvious who this someone was referring to.

Zhao Zixuan smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "You two have great acting skills and charm, no matter which role you play. However, each role has its own unique challenges and requirements. Your current role selection is actually based on your own characteristics and strengths."

"Qiu Yun, the tenacity and wisdom of Sheng Minglan, played by you, are very consistent with your temperament. And Ding Ding, the gentleness and spirit of sacrifice of Jiang Yanli, played by you, are also a kind of trait in you. These two roles seem to be tailor-made for you."

Zhao Zixuan's words were full of trust and encouragement for them. He felt that the match between the actors and the roles was crucial to the success of the work.

He continued, "Of course, as an actor, trying different roles is an important way to improve your acting skills. If there is an opportunity in the future, we can consider letting you challenge some new types of roles, which will not only enrich your acting experience, but also bring more surprises to the audience."

"Really? Do we still have the opportunity to continue playing different roles?" Luo Qiuyun looked at Zhao Zixuan and said softly, "Thank you for your support, Boss. We will continue to work hard and strive to make breakthroughs in every role and not let the audience down."

Ding Xiaoying also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we will cherish every opportunity to perform and play every role to the best of our ability."

Zhao Zixuan casually put his hands on Ding Xiaoying and Luo Qiuyun's shoulders and encouraged them, "Yes, that's the attitude. Keep up this enthusiasm and professionalism. I believe your acting career will get better and better."

Zhao Zixuan's affirmation and encouragement undoubtedly gave Luo Qiuyun and Ding Xiaoying great motivation. This positive feedback is not only a recognition of their past efforts, but also an expectation for their future potential.

In the entertainment industry, being appreciated by a director or producer can often bring about a rocket-like leap in an actor's career, providing more opportunities and room for development, not to mention a big boss like Zhao Zixuan who is both wealthy and talented.

Night falls.

Led by Zhao Zixuan, a group of beauties in ancient costumes walked into a high-end club and immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. Their appearance seemed to have traveled through time and space, bringing the charm of classics into the modern luxury venue, creating a unique visual impact.

The interior of the club is luxuriously decorated, with soft and warm lighting, creating an atmosphere that is both private and comfortable.

The service staff here are well-trained and can meet the various needs of the guests. Although Zhao Zixuan is also here for the first time, he is satisfied with the service attitude here.

They were politely led to the reserved private box, which not only had a wide view but also provided more private service.

In the box, Zhao Zixuan arranged a series of entertainment activities, including live music, wine tasting, exquisite Chinese dinner and traditional art performances such as calligraphy demonstration and guzheng solo.

These activities are not only for celebration, but also for these Chinese opera actresses to experience the charm of traditional Chinese culture, which echoes the ancient costumes they wear.

The dinner started, and exquisite dishes were served one after another. Each dish was carefully selected to show the breadth and depth of Chinese cuisine. While enjoying the food, Zhao Zixuan chatted intimately with the women in ancient costumes, and the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.

As the night progressed, the music started, the lights became softer, and someone started dancing in the center of the dance floor.

"Boss, shall we dance together?"

Yang Chuchu took the initiative to invite Zhao Zixuan to dance, but he rejected her without hesitation. Zhao Zixuan's eyes fell on Ding Xiaoying's pretty face and said jokingly, "For the first dance, I want to dance with Jiang Yanli."

Yang Chuchu pouted, feeling a little jealous, but there was nothing she could do.

Amid the cheers of others, Ding Xiaoying's pretty face blushed slightly. She nodded slightly and accepted Zhao Zixuan's invitation.

The two stepped onto the dance floor and slowly danced to the melodious melody. Zhao Zixuan's dance steps were steady and elegant, while Ding Xiaoying seemed a little shy, but she soon caught up with the rhythm. The two showed a tacit understanding of beauty on the dance floor.

The people around seemed to be infected by the atmosphere and joined in the dance one after another. The whole club was filled with joy and romance.

The lights flickered among the dancing figures, illuminating the figures of Ding Xiaoying and Zhao Zixuan, like a flowing painting.

On the dance floor, Zhao Zixuan held Ding Xiaoying's small hand with one hand and her soft waist with the other, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while. You seem to have lost a lot of weight. Did you not eat?"

Ding Xiaoying's face flushed slightly when she heard this. She bit her lower lip lightly, turned her head slightly to avoid Zhao Zixuan's sight, and said softly, "No, I've been busy with work recently, maybe that's why."

Her voice was gentle and reserved, with a hint of shyness.

After hearing this, Zhao Zixuan's eyes showed a trace of concern, "No matter how busy you are at work, you must take care of your health and don't always forget to eat. Health is the capital of revolution. Without a good body, how can you work well?"

His tone was full of gentle reminders, making people feel a warm care.

"I...I know..."

A warm feeling surged in Ding Xiaoying's heart. She felt Zhao Zixuan's care, which made her heart beat faster. At the same time, she also felt a kind of happiness of being valued.

As the music rose and fell, the two of them spun on the dance floor. The surrounding lights and crowds seemed to become the background, leaving only their own world.

"You look beautiful tonight."

Zhao Zixuan lowered his head and whispered softly in Ding Xiaoying's ear.

When Ding Xiaoying heard Zhao Zixuan's whisper, her cheeks turned even redder, and her heart was filled with sweetness and shyness.

She responded softly, "Thank you...you're handsome too."

Although her voice was very soft, it seemed that only the two of them could hear it on the spinning dance floor.

As the melody flowed, their steps were coordinated tacitly, and every movement was natural and smooth as if it had been rehearsed in advance.

Ding Xiaoying looked up into Zhao Zixuan's eyes. Her reflection was reflected in those deep eyes, making her feel as if the entire universe had shrunk to this moment, this intimate distance.

The dance was coming to an end, but none of them wanted it to end.

When the last note fell, Zhao Zixuan suddenly hugged the girl tightly in his arms. When their eyes met, his voice was as gentle as water:

"Let me kiss you, Senior Sister."

"No, they're still watching!"

Although Ding Xiaoying's voice contained a slight protest, it was more of a feeling of shyness and accelerated heartbeat.

She gently pushed Zhao Zixuan's chest, indicating that there were other people around him, but this rejection was not firm, but instead added a bit of ambiguous atmosphere.

Zhao Zixuan smiled slightly, as if he understood the message in Ding Xiaoying's eyes.

He looked around, confirmed the situation, and then whispered in Ding Xiaoying's ear again: "Then let's find a place where no one is."

He reached out and gently took Ding Xiaoying's hand, leading her out of the dance floor, through the crowd, looking for a relatively hidden corner where they could have some private space to express their feelings to each other more freely.

Ding Xiaoying reluctantly followed Zhao Zixuan's footsteps, and they both disappeared on the dance floor. At this moment, she felt both anticipation and a little trepidation, because she knew that their every move was being watched and observed by many pairs of eyes.

Not far away, Yang Chuchu and Kuang Tingting stood at the edge of the dance floor, following the figures of Ding Xiaoying and Zhao Zixuan as they walked away. The two looked at each other, and could see a hint of jealousy and dissatisfaction in each other's eyes.

Yang Chuchu spoke first, with an undisguised sour tone in her voice: "Look at them like that, it's as if the whole world doesn't exist. Ding Ding, this little vixen, is really good at hooking up with men!"

Kuang Tingting sighed softly and said, "Who made Ding Ding beautiful? Among us, only Qiu Yun's looks and figure can be compared with hers, alas!"

Kuang Tingting's words revealed a sense of helplessness and envy. Although she did not express jealousy directly, she recognized Ding Xiaoying's appearance advantage, and at the same time hinted at her own inadequacy in comparison with others.

Yang Chuchu looked at Luo Qiuyun and deliberately said, "I still think our Qiuyun is prettier and has a better figure. If she can be more proactive, no man will be able to resist her charm!"

When Luo Qiuyun heard what Yang Chuchu said, a trace of shyness flashed across her face, and she said softly: "You are flattering me, I am not that charming."

"Why not?" Yang Chuchu continued, "Don't you know why the boss chose you as the heroine of "Do You Know?" It's because he likes you and thinks you're beautiful."

Luo Qiuyun smiled softly, obviously feeling a little embarrassed by Yang Chuchu's praise, but also with a hint of pride.

Seeing that Luo Qiuyun didn't say anything, Yang Chuchu continued to persuade him, "Qiuyun, seriously, if I were you, I would use my advantages to take the initiative to attack and take down the boss, get him first, and then conquer his heart..."

Kuang Tingting rolled her eyes and said jokingly, "Do you think BOSS is one of those bootlickers around you? He is so easy to conquer. As for me, there is only one way to conquer a successful man like BOSS."

Yang Chuchu blurted out, "What method?"

Luo Qiuyun also looked at Kuang Tingting curiously, obviously looking forward to her next answer.

"The solution is..." Kuang Tingting deliberately kept the secret a secret and said with a mysterious smile: "Give the boss a baby!"

After hearing what Kuang Tingting said, Yang Chuchu was stunned for a moment, then she couldn't help laughing. She clapped her hands and said, "Haha, Tingting, what kind of crazy idea is this? It's so funny! But it seems to make sense. Otherwise, Qiu Yun, why don't you give it a try? Try to hit the target with one shot!"

Luo Qiuyun also laughed. She shook her head and said, "You two are just joking. But, to be honest, I think that to conquer a person's heart, you should rely on sincerity and mutual understanding, not means and strategies. The boss is a successful man, and I believe he values ​​the inner qualities of women more."

Yang Chuchu snorted and said, "That's what you think. All men are the same."

Kuang Tingting raised her eyebrows and joked, "I thought you meant that all men's birds are the same."

"Haha..." Yang Chuchu laughed.

After Luo Qiuyun understood it belatedly, she felt a little embarrassed and blushed.
