The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 160

Sometimes Qin Wei feels that one shouldn't pay too much attention to embarrassing moments. Over the past few months, she has firmly believed that as long as you don't feel embarrassed, then it's not you who is embarrassed. And the fact has proven her right.

Whenever she makes a mistake and feels embarrassed, it's always her fans who feel embarrassed on her behalf.

But this time it's different. Qin Wei feels that whether she graduates or leaves the entertainment industry is a small matter. What she really wants to know is the progress of our country's aerospace industry. If the technology is advanced enough, she wants to live on another planet.

As the Southwest Tourism Ambassador, they were both invited by the local tourism bureau to take on the role together. Qiao Sixiao's agent and mother, He Hong, attached great importance to it, so she came in person.

After hearing the explanation, Qin Wei felt a pang in her heart. Why does her mom speak like a big boss? Doesn't she give any background information before a meeting? She comes in and goes straight to the point to save time? Do they expect their employees to figure out the details on their own?

Later, she found out that Qiao Sixiao's mom is indeed a big boss, and she is actually the shareholder of Qin Wei's talent agency. She is the real behind-the-scenes agent. 𝐟𝐫eewe𝗯𝐧𝚘ve𝐥.c𝚘𝚖

However, she usually deals with countless affairs and delegates trivial matters to her subordinates, so she doesn't often appear by Qiao Sixiao's side.

She came specifically today because, in her opinion, this matter is not trivial.

"Although being a tourism ambassador is not considered a business venture, and there is no profit involved, the benefits we gain in terms of our artists' image are greater.

I would also like to thank Miss Qin for her serious dedication to public welfare and for not deliberately using it for publicity, which has led to the achievements we have today. And I thank you for bringing our artist along to participate in this event."

He Hong said.

"But I don't feel indebted to you. After all, Miss Qin's success today has nothing to do with the contrived CP pairing..."

"Can we focus on the matter at hand?"

Qiao Sixiao, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up and interrupted He Hong.

"Okay."

He Hong wasn't displeased by this.

"I am an open-minded mother and I don't interfere with Qiao Sixiao's personal life.

But I am a businesswoman, and Qiao Sixiao is an artist under our company. She must prioritize the interests of our company in everything she does. As long as it can bring profit to the company, I support it. But if it harms the interests of our company, I must put a stop to it."

This imposing manner reminded Qin Wei of a classic scene from a TV drama—

"This is five million. Leave my daughter!"

...

Qiao Sixiao clenched her teeth, seemingly trying hard to restrain herself.

"Do you have to say these things here?"

He Hong didn't refute and returned to the topic, addressing Qin Wei:

"I apologize for not explaining clearly earlier. Usually, I don't need to talk about these matters in meetings. I'm used to it. Now Miss Qin should understand, right?"

Qin Wei didn't dare to speak and simply nodded.

"The shooting period is flexible, ranging from three to five days. Your agent will communicate the specifics with you. I won't bother you further."

With that, He Hong stood up and said to Qiao Sixiao,

"Go to your room. I have something to discuss with you."

...

After the mother and daughter left, Qin Wei looked at Li Yao, and Li Yao looked at Qin Wei. Neither of them spoke for a while.

"Li Yao, why didn't you tell me in advance..."

Li Yao lowered his voice:

"Don't stress too much. Her mom has a typical business mindset. She doesn't really care about the CP pairing business... it's not something she's concerned about."

Qin Wei interrupted him:

"I'm talking about the Ambassador role!"

"Oh...

It happened suddenly. When Xu General Manager told me about it, He Hong had already come to see me, and your phone wasn't with you...

Well, I didn't have time. She was talking to me about the project the whole way, and I didn't want to interrupt her by looking at my phone...

Anyway, it's not a bad thing... just a rushed arrival. Xu General Manager assigned staff to accompany me, but they didn't come along. It's better to keep it low-key with the Tourism Bureau's cooperation. Be modest at the scene and don't argue!"

...

Early the next morning, the Tourism Bureau sent a car to pick them up. When they arrived at the Provincial Tourism Bureau, they were personally received by the director and others.

Before the shooting, a brief meeting was held, discussing the regional tourism development plans. One of the plans was to shoot a promotional video with an ambassador. The project was well prepared, but the selection process had been undecided.

Qin Wei had been one of the candidates all along, unbeknownst to her. The efforts she had silently made were also noticed by the bureau. It was only in the past few days, after seeing the efforts she and Qiao Sixiao had made, that the bureau officially confirmed their selection.

The director said to them:

"Your documentary has great potential, and it had a good effect after being posted online, including your efforts to assist agriculture. Mayor Zhou recommended both of you, and we had a meeting to discuss it. We think it's feasible."

With the contract signed, the matter was considered done.

When they were leaving, He Hong said to Qiao Sixiao:

"I won't be following you during the next shoot. The staff members are all in place. If you need anything, just let them know. I have to catch a plane, so you don't need to see me off."

After He Hong finished speaking, she left, and Qiao Sixiao didn't hesitate at all. She didn't even take a step to see her off.

Qin Wei secretly observed from the side, realizing that the relationship between mother and daughter wasn't that great...

And her mother had this imposing aura, as if she was an emperor...

Just thinking about it made her scared. She had to be more restrained...

...

The first day of the shoot took place in the provincial capital. According to the script, their characters were tourists from out of town, so there weren't many requirements for their clothing, and their hairstyles and makeup were casual.

The entire shooting route covered the classic tourist spots in the city, showcasing the local features from a tourist's perspective.

However, due to time constraints, the shoot was divided into two groups. Except for the initial meeting where Qin Wei met Qiao Sixiao, the rest of the time they were each working alone.

They ate, drank, and enjoyed themselves along the way. Not only did they not encounter any difficulties, but they also had a great time.

"Qin Teacher, did you... finish eating the props?"

"?"

...

In the evening, both of them stayed in a hotel in the city center. The evening breeze was cool, and after Qin Wei took a shower, she went to the balcony to enjoy the view.

The Tourism Bureau was generous and provided them with a suite in the most luxurious hotel in the area. It was located on the top floor, offering a panoramic view of the city at night.

There was one suite with two bedrooms, one for each of them.

They said there was only one luxury suite available, and they wanted to give them the best while treating them equally. So, they had no choice but to share a living room.

But fortunately, the bathrooms in the bedrooms were separate, so when they closed the doors, it was like having their own spacious rooms with large beds.

Qin Wei poured herself a glass of fruit juice and admired the night view while sipping it. Soon, Qiao Sixiao emerged with her script and sat on the sofa opposite Qin Wei.

Qin Wei glanced at her and stood up to leave.

"What's wrong? I didn't say anything when you drank that high-sugar fruit juice. Why are you leaving?" Qiao Sixiao asked absentmindedly while flipping through the script.

Didn't I just say it?

Qin Wei glanced at the juice in her hand. It was impossible to pour it out; she wouldn't waste it. She could simply refrain from drinking it later.

Qin Wei said, "I'm going to bed. Goodnight, Maca Baka."

"Sit down."

"Okay."

Qin Wei obediently sat back down, but Qiao Sixiao continued to focus on her own work...

Qin Wei felt restless sitting there.

"How is the consideration for the new drama going?" Qiao Sixiao suddenly asked her.

"Huh?"

"This drama is historical in nature, and indeed, the female character doesn't have many scenes. But I think the adapted script has well-defined character personalities, and it won't require much time on the set, so it won't interfere with your other work..."

After hearing her say so much, Qin Wei didn't feel comfortable rejecting directly. Qiao Sixiao seemed to care about whether she would take on this role, so she asked, "Are you also participating in this drama?"
