Chapter 12 I Want to Improve
Boom boom boom!
"Please come in!"
Han Ziming sat in his office and looked up as he spoke.
"Boss, you promised to have dinner with me, but I want to eat at my dorm, okay?"
As Zhang Ruonan pushed open the door, she walked up to Han Ziming, her face flushed, and said softly:
"Hmm? That works too!"
Han Ziming smiled and nodded in agreement.
He likes employees who have ideas but don't cause trouble.
When Zhang Ruonan heard him agree, a bright smile bloomed on her face.
At this moment, Han Ziming suddenly thought of something, and he said with a smile:
"Ruonan, let me tell you a story."
There were two people: one was born into a wealthy family, was handsome, and wanted to enter the entertainment industry. His parents immediately contacted a famous director to arrange a role for him, and he was at the peak of his career from the very beginning!
Another person came from an extremely poor family and also wanted to enter the entertainment industry. However, he couldn't find a way in, so he could only work part-time to earn tuition fees while enrolling in acting training classes, desperately seizing every opportunity, before he barely managed to step into the entertainment industry.
After overcoming countless hardships, they finally became famous and popular!
Which of these two people with completely different circumstances do you think the audience would resonate with more and prefer?
Zhang Ruonan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
She quickly realized that among the two types of people Han Ziming had mentioned, she belonged to the latter.
"The second type."
Why?
Zhang Ruonan explained: "Because the rich are ultimately a minority in this world, and the majority are poor people at the bottom."
The poor can only empathize with the poor; these are the kinds of stories that audiences enjoy and prefer.
Han Ziming nodded in agreement after listening and said:
"Yes, your family isn't wealthy, and your looks are an asset for entering the entertainment industry, but if you want to go further, you still need to study at the Beijing Film Academy."
Zhang Ruonan was stunned and asked subconsciously.
"Why is it actually Yan Ying?"
"I've heard that the best is Yanxi (燕戏)?"
"Because I only have resources from Yanying School, you can't transfer to other schools."
You also need to study hard, otherwise you'll be severely criticized when the show airs if you don't learn it well.
"Also, if you join Yanying and become my junior sister, I can give you roles and dispel many rumors, understand?"
Han Ziming spoke at length with great earnestness.
Zhang Ruonan nodded happily after hearing this.
"I see."
She herself knew that this was a rare opportunity, and going to Yanying would not only improve her acting skills.
There's also a chance to get close to the boss, because in the future, I'll definitely be getting resources based on the boss's approval.
Soon after Han Ziming and Zhang Ruonan came downstairs,
The driver was waiting early in the morning. As soon as the two got in the car, Zhang Ruonan hugged Han Ziming's arm.
"Ruonan, what's wrong?"
"I want to improve," she said shyly, looking down.
Han Ziming finally understood why so few of the directors in China were handsome, and why their wives were all beauties!
He then smiled and introduced the driver to her, saying...
"This is Old Wu."
"Hello Angkor!"
Driver Lao Wu greeted her with a smile, "Hello, Miss Zhang!"
Actually, Zhang Ruonan was quite nervous today. Before coming to Yanjing from Hangzhou, she had inquired about the signing conditions of other entertainment companies, but the contracts they offered were too harsh.
Some agents, seeing how pretty she was, hinted that if she went out for drinks that night, they could offer her a higher signing fee.
If the agent is acting so recklessly, then his superiors must be even more outrageous.
Now that she's signed a contract, she's come to her senses!
Besides, one's values are influenced by one's appearance!
Mozi Films offered such great terms: a high signing fee and resources for the female lead.
She has already gone out to work to support her family.
They also know what they should do.
So, under Han Ziming's tactics of money and resources, she realized that she had to cling to this young, handsome, and kind guy.
There are a lot of competitors, so we need to go all out.
But it doesn't matter anymore. We've already got the resources, so being reserved would be a bit pretentious. It's better than giving them to a greasy old man.
After all, this is very common in the entertainment industry. Just like what you thought was a quiet, tree-lined path, it is actually already bustling with traffic!
In less than 10 minutes, driver Lao Wu drove the car to the company dormitory building, and the two got out of the car.
"Boss, let's go upstairs, the delivery has arrived."
Zhang Ruonan eagerly took Han Ziming's hand and said...
Han Ziming was initially hesitant, but seeing Zhang Ruonan's expectant eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"All right."
The two walked into the dormitory building together, picked up the takeout food from the takeout locker downstairs, and went upstairs.
The two quickly went inside.
The company dormitories are decorated in a cozy style, with each room having a bedroom, a living room, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a balcony.
Han Ziming sat on the sofa, while Zhang Ruonan was busy setting the takeout orders on the dining table.
"Boss, come and eat!"
Han Ziming smiled and stood up, walking to Zhang Ruonan's side.
Zhang Ruonan exclaimed happily, "They even have red wine!"
Han Ziming looked at Zhang Ruonan, who had a happy expression, and said.
"This was probably prepared by Xiaohong to celebrate your successful signing."
"Thank you, boss!"
Zhang Ruonan felt a little embarrassed.
I didn't expect Xiaohong to be so direct.
A short while later, Han Ziming finished brewing the red wine, poured two glasses, and said...
"Come on, let's raise a glass to celebrate."
Zhang Ruonan also picked up her wine glass, gently clinked it with Han Ziming's, then slowly brought it to her lips, tilted her head back to reveal her fair neck, and drank it all in one gulp.
Beautiful women drinking wine—a feast for the eyes!
Han Ziming blinked, his heart pounding with excitement.
The two quickly finished the food on the table.
Zhang Ruonan quickly tidied up the takeout packaging and threw it into the trash can in the stairwell outside.
Afterwards, she went inside to wash her hands and rinse her mouth, then walked to Han Ziming's side and gently took his hand.
"Thank you, boss. I'm very happy that you could keep me company."
After saying that, she sat on the sofa and slowly leaned against Han Ziming.
What the hell!
Sis, you're being a bit too obvious! This is only the first day!
As they chatted, Han Ziming learned about Zhang Ruonan's past and offered her words of comfort:
"Things will get better!"
"I will try my best, thank you for your encouragement."
"It's getting late, I should head back."
"Okay, wait for me a moment."
After saying that, Zhang Ruonan went back to her room and changed into a white, slightly transparent long T-shirt.
Han Ziming looked up and was frozen in place by the scenery before him, his mind going blank for a moment.
Zhang Ruonan was wearing a slightly oversized T-shirt that barely covered her buttocks and below, leaving her two long, fair legs bare.
However, he quickly came to his senses, turned around with feigned composure, and realized that doing this on the very first day they met was a bit inappropriate.
Zhang Ruonan quickly stepped forward, hugged Han Ziming from behind, pressed her head tightly against his back, and said in a coquettish tone.
"Boss, please don't go! This is my first time in Yanjing, and I don't know anyone here. Could you keep me company tonight?"
