The Unexpected Rise Before My Exit from the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 442

Don't even think about it, Qiao would never agree, just go home and dream on!

...

The car arrived at Huanyi Entertainment's company building, this was not the first time Qin Wei had come here, but every time she still had to exclaim, big companies really have an imposing atmosphere, with their own office towers, and the interiors were all decorated according to He Hong's personal preferences.

He Hong was waiting for her early at the entrance, greeting her warmly, with company executives all standing around her, and the group made their way to the lounge.

"The shooting location is already set up, Miss Qin please go change into costumes with Qiao Sixiao first, let's focus on work for now, we can chat about other things later."

He Hong said as she took the initiative to open the door for them,

"I'll go to the set and wait for you two."

It was very clear that He Hong intended to use the peacocks here.

...

Once again changing into the costumes from when they were filming Star Ablaze, Qin Wei went to the backyard garden in a red dress, and Qiao came a while later as well.

The set was already prepared, in order not to startle the peacocks, there weren't many people on set, and the peacocks were already used to being watched by people, so they were still strolling around the garden at this time.

For the sake of the photoshoot, He Hong had specially bought some nice looking fake rock mountains, so that after the peacocks landed on them, Qin and Qiao could also climb up and sit next to the peacocks.

The magazine had invited an internationally renowned photographer, who was now pointing his camera at them and the peacocks, but he didn't take any photos yet, saying he was waiting for the perfect moment.

The peacocks didn't care, relaxing leisurely.

Qiao Sixiao was also fine, after all this was her own company, whether she was doing this job or another job she still had to work, sitting together with her roommate was actually relaxing, there wasn't much pressure.

Little Qin was different, her waist hurt, she could endure it but it still hurt.

Since they weren't shooting yet, she turned to look at her roommate.

Her roommate also noticed that her cold expression wasn't being aloof and hard to get along with, but rather she was nervous or uncomfortable.

Oh, she understood, her waist was hurting.

But Qiao couldn't do anything either, she couldn't call for a break to let her rest, she could only reach out from behind to support her roommate's waist, to help bear some of the strain for her.

They wouldn't be shooting this anyway.

Snap -

The photographer finally sprang to life, continuously snapping many shots, then calling He Hong over to take a look.

"Take a look at what I shot, this hasn't even been edited yet, but I'm already satisfied. Boss He, invest in a period costume drama, just use this directly as promotional posters, let me tell you, even without a story, it would still sell like crazy."

After He Hong looked them over she was also satisfied, such high visual appeal, period costume styling, one in red and one in white, sitting side by side, with a hint of "navigating the jianghu together, weathering the storms together" in their expressions. Combined with first-rate scenery and composition, if they directly bought ad slots around the city to promote with these, it would definitely attract attention!

But He Hong still had to say some polite words:

"You flatter me, the main thing is Teacher's excellent photography skills, our magazine and I both agree, only you can take photos that satisfy everyone."

The photographer was even more polite:

"Oh come on! The main thing is your two girls here are so good looking, with the temperament to match their beauty. Good looks alone are not enough, there are plenty of good looking kids in this circle, but innate beauty, now that's hard to come by."

The two sides kept complimenting each other, only Qin Wei felt tired, once back in the lounge she just sprawled out on the sofa not wanting to move.

"There's still the afternoon shoot after lunch, and that was just one photo..."

Qiao only complained in a small voice after coming in, she was also dead tired.

She found a chair to sit in, and said to Xiao Wang:

"Go prepare lunch, keep it light, just eat a little so we're not hungry, there's still the shoot this afternoon..."

Xiao Wang responded and went out, Qiao then sat by the edge of the sofa, reaching out to massage her ordinary roommate's waist where her old injury was flaring up.

The pain finally eased up a bit.

"Let's go to the hospital later, I'm really afraid you'll be paralyzed at my place someday and try to take advantage of me..."

Qiao complained, then took out some Salonpas she had just bought to stick on her, it didn't cure illness, but it was still effective at alleviating pain.

The medicine worked quickly, it really didn't hurt as much anymore.

Her roommate helped pull her clothes back into place, letting her lie down and rest. Right then Xiao Wang knocked on the door with their lunch, after setting it down he said he was going to the set for preparations.

After her waist felt much better, Qin Wei got up to eat.

After that the photographer took a few more shots of them in period costumes, then had them change into modern outfits to continue shooting. The peacocks were very cooperative, when they saw modern Qin they fanned out their tails.

They must compete in beauty with little Qin!

Although very beautiful it was also quite funny, the two peacocks fanning out their tails at Qin Wei, going wherever she went, determined to compete.

This lightened up the atmosphere, everyone present was laughing, even He Hong looked to be in a good mood.

The shoot went smoothly, afterwards He Hong still wanted to treat everyone to dinner together, but surprisingly, Qiao Sixiao took the initiative to speak with He Hong, the two went into the conference room, and didn't come out until a while later.

He Hong came out and said to the magazine crew, sponsors, and photographer:

"Everyone worked hard today, dinner's on me, let's eat while we chat, we can also discuss future collaborations..."

Everyone chatted while heading to Huanyi's lounge, leaving Qiao Sixiao to take her roommate and leave the company together.

"It's so nice not having to attend the networking dinner..."

Qin Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and flipped through her phone, seeing the magazine price getting inflated by scalpers, leaving her feeling very awful.

People would still pay those high prices, mostly because they genuinely liked it and wanted to own it.

Qin Wei understood that feeling too, buying something you like at a high price, it really makes you feel like a chump.

"Did you talk to Her Majesty?"

Qin Wei asked her roommate.

"Yeah, but whether it succeeds or not, I don't know, depends on He Hong's mood, and how the magazine crew thinks about it."

Qiao Sixiao replied. 𝓯𝘳𝘦𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝓬𝘰𝑚

Just now she had told He Hong she was tired and wanted to go home and rest, He Hong was quite surprised, it was rare for Qiao Sixiao to take the initiative to say she was tired, so she naturally agreed to let her go home and rest.

"It really is rare for you to show weakness to me, no matter who it's for, what it's about, I think it's quite good."

He Hong said to her in the conference room,

"What you proposed, I can only say I'll try my best, as for success or failure, it's hard to say. This magazine has a limited print run every month, they do plan to print more this time, but removing the limit completely would be difficult to say, since it is a monthly."

Qiao Sixiao nodded in understanding:

"If it's very difficult to accomplish, after Star Ablaze wraps up, we can give fans a batch of benefits in the name of the company...

In any case, my coworker Qin Wei and I both feel that scalpers shouldn't treat fans like cash cows to casually fleece, and hunger marketing shouldn't be used either. They like it, so let them be able to buy it, except for the occasional limited collab, most of the time there's no need for artificial scarcity."

...

By the time they got home, it was already 9pm, they hadn't eaten dinner and were both tired and hungry.

On the coffee table in the living room was an insulated bag, Xiao Wang had come by earlier to deliver it.

Opening it, the food boxes were still hot, inside was a hearty dinner.

There were shrimp dumplings, taro ribs, blanched choy sum, and egg tarts, along with brewed lemon black tea.

Looking at the spread on the table, Qin Wei said:

"I also want a mousse cake."

"Don't get greedy!!!!"

Turning on the projector to watch a movie, although usually very busy, tonight they could temporarily go back to living a perfectly ordinary life.
