Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

There was no huge dining table like Mao Tongtong imagined in a Central European castle, nor dishes as exquisite as works of art like those in a three-star Michelin restaurant, nor exaggerated tables full of dishes like a Manchu-Han banquet.

There was an ordinary solid wood round table with a copper hot pot in the middle. There were also hot dishes such as mutton rolls, vegetables, duck blood, and tripe on the table.

There are two stainless steel ice buckets placed next to the table. One of them contains several bottles of beer, and the other contains two bottles of white wine.

Except for two bottles of white wine that seemed a bit high-end, the rest were very homely.

"It's really a family dinner." Mao Tongtong breathed a sigh of relief.

The round table was not big, so four people could sit comfortably. After sitting down, Mao Tongtong suddenly looked at the two plates of food on the table in surprise: "Are there any roasted chestnuts and donkey rolling?"

"Yes, your brother Nie told me that you are from Jinmen, so I specially prepared these two kinds of food." Shu Chang said with a smile.

"Thank you Sister Shu Chang, thank you Teacher Nie." Mao Tongtong thanked her quickly.

"I'm calling you teacher, this little girl is so cute." Shu Chang snickered and whispered to Nie Wei beside him.

Faced with Shu Chang's teasing, Nie Wei looked calm, but Mao Tongtong on the side blushed a little. Seeing this, Nie Wei said: "Sorry, my wife is a bit naughty and loves to joke."

"It's okay, it's okay." Mao Tongtong waved her hands in a panic, not knowing how to answer the question.

Mao Hui looked on, secretly worried, why was her daughter so stupid? Thinking of this, she quickly interjected: "Mr. Nie's achievements, Tongtong should be called teacher, in fact, Miss Shu Chang should also be called your teacher." , but you are too young and beautiful, so I’m afraid I’ll call you old.”

"Auntie, you're too polite. I'm embarrassed to say that." Shu Chang said politely.

"You can just joke around." Nie Wei rubbed Shu Chang's hair dotingly, then smiled and said to Mao Hui and Mao Tongtong, "We don't need to be polite. The hot pot is now open. You can order whatever you like."

After saying that, Nie Wei picked up the white wine in the ice bucket. Mao Huigang was about to use chopsticks to pick up the food. When he saw this, he quickly put down his chopsticks and was about to pick it up.

"Auntie, you are an elder, I can do this." Nie Wei skillfully opened the cork of the white wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for everyone.

"Try it. Although it's not a classic wine, it tastes very good." Nie Wei invited everyone to try the white wine.

Mao Hui took a sip, then immediately gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's really delicious."

After making a simple comment, she picked up the wine glass and took a sip, as if to prove that what she said was true.

In fact, Mao Hui doesn't understand white wine at all. If you ask her about red wine, she might know a little bit about red wine. But since Nie Wei said the wine is good, she can just follow suit.

"It's pretty good, very sweet." Mao Tongtong also took a sip and felt that the taste was indeed as good as Nie Wei said.

"If you like it, take two bottles with you. You can't buy it in this market. It's a private collection from Nie Wei's friend winery." Shu Chang said after seeing Mao Tongtong like it very much.

"No, I rarely drink." Mao Tongtong waved her hand and declined.

Shu Chang did not persuade Mao Tongtong anymore, but smiled and asked Mao Tongtong which dishes he liked to eat, and then put those dishes into the hot pot.

Nie Wei and Shu Chang had always been very enthusiastic, which made Mao Tongtong feel very uncomfortable. It was like a big shot suddenly greeting ordinary people. No matter how kind the big shot's attitude was, ordinary people would still feel uncomfortable. To use an idiom, they would feel flattered.

She also knew that this might be Nie Wei's apology for what happened during the day, but she couldn't accept it with peace of mind.

After three drinks and five dishes, everyone was eating, drinking and chatting normally. No one mentioned anything about what happened during the day. It was not until Mao Tongtong felt full and put down his chopsticks that Nie Wei said: "First of all, about what happened during the day, I Apologizes."

Hearing Nie Wei's words, Mao Hui also put down her chopsticks, knowing that the highlight of today was coming.

"Fanxing has an online drama to be produced. If you are interested, I will ask the company to send you the script." Nie Wei did not explain too much, but directly proposed a compensation plan.

With Mao Tongtong's popularity, it is no problem to be the heroine of an online drama. Nie Wei's recommendations are not just random resources. The company is positioning A-level online dramas, which is also one of the company's key projects throughout the year. The whole company gives high hopes to the works that will produce results.

Mao Tongtong didn't expect Nie Wei to propose a compensation plan so directly. She was a little overwhelmed for a moment, and when she turned around, she subconsciously wanted to refuse.

However, Mao Hui agreed before she did.

"Mr. Nie, we won't be polite to you anymore. This opportunity to confront Maomao is very important. Auntie, thank you first." After speaking, Mao Hui raised the filled wine glass and drank it down.

"Mom..." Mao Tongtong was thin-skinned and felt a little ashamed of her mother's eager agreement.

Perhaps it was because of the little girl's so-called self-esteem that she actually didn't want Nie Wei's compensation in her heart. She even secretly made excuses for Nie Wei's actions, implying that this was the world of adults. They should accept such a thing, and Nie Wei actually provided them with an opportunity, but it was a pity that they did not seize it.

"Don't talk." Mao Hui glared at her daughter, then asked Xiang Nie Wei with a smile: "Mr. Nie, I don't know when the filming of this online drama will start? We know the time so we can prepare as soon as possible."

"Within a month, I heard that it will be a TV series that combines e-sports and love. The heroine should be a female anchor. If you want to experience this profession, you can try to register an anchor account on the Fanxing Live Platform recently. Experience what it’s like to be a female anchor.”

"That's great. I'll let Maomao register an account tonight." Mao Hui agreed with a smile, and then took Mao Tongtong's hand: "Why don't you thank Mr. Nie?"

"Teacher Nie Wei, thank you." Mao Tongtong stood up and thanked her with a forced smile.

Nie Wei saw the girl's "reluctant" expression and guessed that it was the girl's pride. In fact, many boys and girls of this age are sometimes reluctant to accept kindness from others.

"Mao Tongtong, which agency are you an artist at now?" Nie Wei suddenly asked.

"Eh?" Mao Tongtong was surprised. She didn't expect Nie Wei to ask about her agency. Before she could recover, Mao Hui suddenly understood what Nie Wei meant and said quickly: "Mao Mao just and the original agency The company is saving money, and now it is still a personal activity. I have no choice but to resign to take care of her, but I don’t understand things in the entertainment industry. In fact, sometimes she has to take care of me. "

Mao Hui said and sighed.

Nie Wei smiled and said directly: "Fanxing Group is now preparing to develop its film and television business. We are in urgent need of outstanding actors like Mao Tongtong, so I would like to invite two of them to join Fanxing."

"Really? This is great. I am worried that there is no professional agency to take care of this child. Mr. Nie, I am not a mother to boast. Our family Maomao is very good in terms of personal conditions and understanding. As long as you If you are willing to praise her, she will never let you down."

"I found a very good fortune teller who told me that our family, Maomao, will be very lucky when she turns thirty." Mao Hui said jokingly.

Mao Tongtong on the side couldn't listen anymore, and quickly pulled Mao Hui's hand under the table, trying to stop her from talking nonsense, but Mao Huiquan pretended not to know, and kept praising Mao Tongtong, because he was afraid that Nie Wei didn't know about his daughter. Good.

"Her acting skills are indeed good among actresses of the same age. If she is given more opportunities to practice, she will achieve success in the future." Nie Wei replied politely.

"That's right, young people should exercise more, so Mr. Nie will give them more opportunities in the future." Mao Hui said following the trend.

After finishing the hot pot meal, Mao Hui and Mao Tongtong didn't wait long and said goodbye. Shu Chang finally prepared two bottles of white wine. This time, Mao Hui accepted them before Mao Tongtong could refuse.

Courtesy means reciprocity, and what goes around comes around. In Mao Hui's opinion, being too polite will make people feel alienated.

However, Mao Tongtong didn't look too good when she saw her mother accepting the gift. After all, she had refused it once during dinner.

On the way home, Mao Tongtong was absent-minded, looking like Yang Zi with something on his mind, but Mao Hui kept chattering and was somewhat in high spirits.

The heroine of a TV series, although it is a web drama, but the quality is guaranteed since it is produced by Fanxing, and it will definitely not be the kind of shoddy web drama.

And the addition of stars is also a surprise.

This company is great. It ranks first in variety shows in the country, and it also has the largest social platform in the country. This means that it is the most powerful company in the country in terms of publicity. In the past year, it has begun to vigorously develop its film and television business. When the company officially lacks talents, If my daughter joins this company at this time, she will definitely be specially trained.

In Mao Hui's opinion, this dinner was really worth it. She even thought that it might be a good thing that the role was not chosen in the afternoon. Otherwise, there might not be this dinner and these opportunities.

The two of them returned home. As soon as they entered the door, Mao Tongtong asked dissatisfied: "Mom, just now Teacher Nie Wei mentioned about signing a company, why did you agree to it?"

"And didn't I tell you that I won't drink anymore? Why are you accepting any gifts?"

Mao Hui was stunned by Mao Tongtong's yelling. She turned around but was not angry. She just smiled and said, "You don't like drinking it, but I do. Don't tell me, I've drunk those wines. It's really Nie Wei who prepared it today." These bottles are the best.”

Mao Tongtong choked at these words and rolled her eyes, and then asked again: "What about the brokerage company?"

"Why, Fanxing is willing to sign you, but you're still not happy? This is the top agency in the country, and Nie Wei took the initiative to invite you to join. This is such a rare opportunity, or do you have a better choice? What do you mean? Look, what's the downside to signing with Fanxing? Other female celebrities are eager to get this opportunity," Mao Hui replied confidently.

"It's their business if they want to fight. Anyway, I don't want to." Mao Tongtong turned his head angrily.

Mao Hui sighed, looked at her awkward daughter, and said seriously: "Maomao, I know you don't like me. Do you think your mother is arrogant or greedy? But in all fairness, who is your mother doing this for? Not all. It's for you."

Speaking of this, Mao Hui's eyes became wet: "Just for the sake of face, give up these opportunities?"

"Mom, I didn't mean that..." Seeing Mao Hui's tears flowing down like broken pearls, Mao Tongtong also felt extremely guilty, because as Mao Hui said, she couldn't stand what Mao Hui did. Because, but Mao Hui did this all for herself.

"Mom, I just don't want you to be so humble. I can make you live a good life with my own hard work." Mao Tongtong explained.

Mao Hui shook her head after hearing this.

"Maomao, Mom has lived a good life. You bought me a car, a house, and beautiful clothes. I am happier than my former colleagues and friends, but Mom did this for you. I hope to see you live a better life. Do you understand?"

"Mom is an experienced person. She knows that life is a series of choices. If you are right, you will be on the road to success. If you are wrong, you will fall into the abyss. Just like I chose your biological father, that was my big mistake."

"So I can't watch you make the wrong choice. Mom will do the things you feel wronged for, and Mom doesn't feel wronged. Nie Wei has respected us from beginning to end, right? Don't you think it is a very good thing for you to have such a good boss?"

"Mom, I'm sorry..." Mao Tongtong's eyes were red, and she felt very guilty. How could she lose her temper with her mother for a little face?

"What are you sorry for? What's there to be sorry about? You know that Mom is doing this for your own good, and that's enough." Mao Hui gently hugged her daughter and comforted her.

Of course she would not blame her daughter because she knew that her daughter was strong.

On the other side, Shu Chang and Nie Wei were also talking about Mao Tongtong, and Yang Zi, who was confirmed to work with her. Shu Chang was also very surprised when she mentioned this little girl.

"Do you know that Yang Zi also worked with me in the Secret History of Xiaozhuang, where she played my childhood. When I met her, she was only that big, and her height just exceeded my waist." Shu Chang said happily.

Nie Wei was also a little surprised, and he checked it online. As Shu Chang said, Yang Zi played the childhood of her character in that TV series.

What's more interesting is that this is Yang Zi's debut work, and it is also Shu Chang's key transformation work.

"Ha, everyone says that this little girl is popular in the drama, and it seems to be true." When Nie Wei said this, Shu Chang also laughed.

After talking about Yang Zi for a while, the topic of the two people turned to Mao Tongtong again.

"What about Mao Tongtong, are you really going to sign her?" Shu Chang asked curiously.

"Of course we have to sign her. She is worth training." Nie Wei replied: "Some actors can soar to the sky if you give them a good opportunity."
