"Why, do you want to date her?"

Liang Zhiqian looked in the direction of the voice and saw He Ying standing beside him at some point, with an e-cigarette between her fingertips.

He raised his hand to disperse the thin smoke in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curved up, "Dating is not something I can do alone."

"I just want to pursue her."

He Ying smiled and slowly exhaled a puff of cigarette, "She doesn't seem to be buying into your tricks, what should I do?"

Liang Zhiqian raised his eyes and glanced at her, then quickly lowered his eyes.

"The autumn in Hong Kong is sunny, warm and windy. She will definitely like it."

This sentence seems to be irrelevant to the question, but it actually has a deep meaning.

He Ying squinted her eyes and looked him up and down, with a strange look on her face: "Don't pester me and make things difficult for me."

Liang Zhiqian laughed softly, "I won't do that to her."

"Think positively. Hope is always there tomorrow." He Ying patted his shoulder, said nothing more, turned around and walked towards the producer.

Although the crew has wrapped up filming, there is still some finishing work to be done.

Seeing her walk away, Liang Zhiqian shifted his gaze back to the asphalt road not far away.

At this time, there was no trace of the car on the road, but he still stared stubbornly at the end of the road.

Maybe he really is a little obsessed.

But he believed that his body would not lie - before he hesitated whether to express his feelings, his suddenly accelerated heartbeat had already given the most instinctive answer.

Even if she doesn't love him, it doesn't matter.

He just wanted to be closer to her, closer.

That's enough.

System: [Congratulations to the host, the love value of the target [Liang Zhiqian] for you has increased to 60%, and the [Deeply Waiting] achievement has been unlocked for you. I hereby reward you with 150 points. ]

Being rejected can actually increase the love value...

The corners of Su Lingxi's mouth twitched, and he was speechless.

Liang Zhiqian doesn't look like a love-brained guy...

"Someone looks like he is reluctant to part with you~" Zhang Wenya, who was sitting next to her in the last row, couldn't help but tease.

"Sister Wen Ya, if you continue to joke with me like this in front of Sister Yang, she will definitely be angry again." Su Lingxi reminded her with a smile.

Unlike Zhang Wenya's easy-going personality, Yang Qian has a hot temper and has always been disgusted with young artists dating.

In her words: You are so young, your career is a mess, you haven’t won any prestigious awards, and you still have the nerve to fall in love?

Yang Qian's extraordinary professionalism would not allow her artists to degenerate like this.

"Okay, okay, I won't joke with you anymore, let's get down to business." Zhang Wenya quickly cleared her throat, "Take the 11 o'clock flight to the capital tomorrow morning. After you arrive, I'll have Jia Jia take you back to school, and then pick you up to go to the styling studio at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow morning."

"Do you have any schedule for the day after tomorrow?" Su Lingxi pinched her brows tiredly and threw her phone aside.

The nine-hour shoot every day and the time she spent training in her [Private Space] had basically exhausted all her energy, so that Su Lingxi had no time to care about her post-shooting schedule, financial situation or online public opinion.

For an experiential actor, every time she joins the crew, it is equivalent to completely immersing herself in the interpretation of another person's life. The exhaustion that almost drains her after each shooting also leaves her no time to worry about other things. She can only leave these to other people in the team to take full responsibility.

"Have you forgotten? I told you last month that you'll be attending Weibo Movie Night the day after tomorrow. Your dress is ready." Zhang Wenya opened the itinerary saved in advance on her phone and enlarged it to show her. "The Red Careerist will be released next month. You've been stuck in the crew filming for more than three months. What you need most now is a large-scale event like this to increase your exposure."

"Okay, I understand." Su Lingxi glanced at the page on her phone absentmindedly, "Has the time for the movie premiere been decided?"

"It will be held on July 7 at the Party History Museum Cinema at Huaying International Cinema City." Zhang Wenya added, "After the premiere, we will start the roadshow. There are a total of five cities scheduled, with three shows in each city."

By this calculation, she only has less than ten days to review.

Thinking of this, Su Lingxi frowned slightly.

Seeing this, Zhang Wenya asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Is it because you can't coordinate the time?"

Although it was not obvious, Su Lingxi still heard a hint of pressure in her tone.

Not only her, but also Yang Qian said the same thing when mentioning this movie.

Su Lingxi could fully understand their thoughts - after all, this was her first film as the leading actress, and if it failed, the consequences and losses would be almost unpredictable.

"Red Careerist" was criticized for the "Pingfan Incident" before filming began. In February this year, it stole the show on the red carpet of the Berlin Film Festival. Whether fans, passers-by or haters, they are now paying close attention to every move of this movie.

If the box office is a big hit, Su Lingxi will have truly established herself in the film industry, and by the way, she will be able to boost the box office of "The Rose Thorn" next year; if the movie unfortunately flopped, her resources might be downgraded overnight - you know, any work of an artist in the rising period is very important, and they must proceed steadily to the top. Once they take a wrong step, the whole building will collapse.

By that time, even if Ruan Tang was still willing to cultivate her, the investors were not fools who would give her money for nothing. It was impossible for them to let her play the leading role that could carry the box office, and she could not even think about any large-scale production projects above S level.

Looking back, there are many such people in the film industry. After the box office of the movie failed, they were unwilling to accept the fact that their resources were downgraded, and turned to the TV industry. Fans thought that their real masters were movie stars who were extremely noble, but what was the reality? When such people went to the TV industry, they could not get in touch with the serious drama projects of big directors. They could only take advantage of their youth to act in some idol dramas that were called big productions but were actually sheep's heads selling dog meat.

Moreover, once anyone leaves the film industry, it is basically impossible to get back in.

Take Mei Yu, for example. She once won the Best Supporting Actress Award at the Hundred Flowers Awards and the Golden Rooster Awards. Her acting skills are beyond reproach, but she was forced out of the film industry and has not been able to act in a movie for ten years. If the film industry is not in urgent need of middle-aged female second roles, she would not have had the opportunity to re-enter the industry.

Most importantly, "Red Careerist" is the first film produced by Hengsheng Pictures as the first producer. In order to ensure the company's voice in this film, Hengsheng Pictures took the lead and only opened a small portion of the copyright share to other investors.

The entire film, from formulating the film production plan to determining the cast and selecting the director and screenwriter, was all handled by Hengsheng Pictures.

In other words, the box office and reputation of "Red Careerist" will determine the level of Hengsheng Pictures as a producer, and will even affect the industry's view of Ruan Tang's work behind the scenes.

Can the once talented film queen make a good movie independently?

Just two trophies from the Berlin Film Festival are not enough to convince most people.

The audience only believes their own eyes, while industry insiders only believe box office and ratings.

Taking these factors into consideration, Su Lingxi decided to complete every roadshow no matter what - final review can be done in the [private space], and as long as she arranges her time reasonably, she believes she can take care of both sides.

Finally, in the tacitly tense atmosphere of the whole team, the time came to July 7th.
