PNB Chapter 155 Gift Critical Hit
Chapter 155 Gift Critical Hit
Director Wu was the first to say, "Qin Xi, after filming this drama, I found that your acting skills have matured, and there are almost no shortcomings. It's just that sometimes your handling of some emotional scenes is still a little stiff. Have you...been hurt by love?"
Qin Xi: “…”
The director is worthy of being a director, his eyes are so sharp!
Director Wu handed Qin Xi a small box with a bow tied on it and smiled awkwardly. "Ignore the bow. My assistant does the same. It's too old-fashioned..."
Qin Xi suppressed her laughter and said, "Director, what's in this box?"
Director Wu showed a smug look, "It's a disc, which contains the most romantic, profound, and sparkling love movies I have discovered over the years of watching movies. Of course, it also includes all the works I have produced since I started working in the industry. Watch it more often when you have nothing to do, and use it as a reference. Try to make up for this shortcoming as soon as possible, and you will be a 360c polygonal warrior with no blind spots!"
Qin Xi took a deep breath and couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the director was so narcissistic.
"Hehe... Director, you are so considerate. This gift is perfect for me! I will definitely study hard like a homework, especially your work, haha..."
Director Wu nodded with satisfaction. This circle is becoming more and more impetuous, the morals of the world are declining, and people's hearts are no longer as they used to be. There are not many artists who truly love art, and Qin Xi is definitely one of them. Director Wu sincerely hopes that Qin Xi can make further progress.
The next person to appear is the styling director, who also became famous because of Qin Xi and is now Qin Xi’s good friend—Yin Yiren.
Yin Yiren held a giant makeup bag and said shyly, "I don't know what to give you. After all, you are such a big star and you have everything. If it weren't for you, I might still be an unknown makeup artist assistant. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are my lucky goddess. I finally caught up with your birthday, I must not miss it!"
"After much thought, I decided that my old profession is more practical. Based on the information I've gained about your skin, hair, and overall condition over the past few months, I've sent you a set of skin care products and cosmetics that are specially selected for you. I wouldn't say they are the best or most expensive, but they are definitely the most suitable for you!"
Qin Xi gave Yin Yiren a big hug.
"Wow, Yiren! You are so thoughtful. I really need this gift from you. I would only choose the popular products that everyone else buys. It's like a blind man touching an elephant. If you are not careful, you can easily make mistakes. You put the correct answer in front of me. How many brain cells can you save me!"
Qin Xi always provides emotional value, and Yin Yiren instantly felt a sense of happiness as if she had given someone a rose and the fragrance lingered on her hands.
Qin Xi looked at Yin Yiren sincerely, "Yiren, today I want to solemnly invite you to a long-term cooperation."
Yin Yiren: “!!!”
"My contract with Meg will expire in half a year. By then, I will set up my own studio, and I would like to invite you to be my exclusive makeup artist. You are the most opinionated and thoughtful makeup artist I have worked with. I sincerely hope that this cooperation is just the beginning, and we can continue to work together in the future!"
Yin Yiren was very touched, but still a little hesitant.

Qin Xi attacked again, "Don't worry, I won't tie you down forever. As long as I don't have a job, you are free. I will never restrict you from taking jobs. And like you said before, if you want to start your own brand, I will fully support you!"
Qinxi team invitation, strategy level: 70%
"Let's not talk about the brand, it's all just my imagination..."
Yin Yiren felt a little embarrassed. This idea of hers was totally unrealistic. She had been chatting happily with Qin Xi before and she had only blurted it out inadvertently. Yin Yiren regretted it right after she said it. Fortunately, Qin Xi did not laugh at her. She did not expect that Qin Xi would remember it after she mentioned it casually.
Qin Xi smiled slyly, "In this world, there is nothing that cannot be done, only things that cannot be imagined. Could you have imagined a few years ago that you would become a famous celebrity makeup artist in the future? So, everything is possible!"
Yin Yiren only felt a warm current flowing from her heart to her whole body. Qin Xi was probably what a confidant and a mentor was like.
"You don't have to give me an answer so quickly. There's still half a year left. This is a big deal after all. Go back and think about it carefully..."
Qinxi team invitation, strategy level: 99%
The last person to appear was the double drama dad specially invited by Qin Xi.
The gift he gave to Qin Xi was very special, it was an antique long sword. The scabbard looked to be made of aged rosewood, well maintained, smooth and shiny, and it was obvious that it was often touched and played with by its owner.
Qin Xi took the sword and felt a heaviness in his hand. The sword was surprisingly heavy.
Dad talked about it, "To be honest, it has been 40 years since my debut..."
Qin Xi: “!!!”
Forty years is older than her two lifetimes combined.
Dad picked up the sword and fell into reminiscence. "When I debuted, the film and television industry was just starting out, and it was mainly martial arts films. I debuted as an action star. This sword was the weapon I used in my first movie. After filming that movie, I brought the sword home and kept it until now. Today I want to give it to you!"
Qin Xi was a little confused, "This... this is too meaningful, how could you give it to me?"
Dad shook his head. "Actually, whether it's your birthday or not, I was going to give it to you. The film and television industry was not well developed back then, and you couldn't make much money, but every opportunity was precious. Every actor, no matter how big or small, would fight for a role! All of us had only one thought in mind, which was to make the show more perfect."
"Forty years have passed in the blink of an eye. I have been working in this industry all along. Although I have never been very famous in my life, my original aspirations have not changed in the past 40 years. I have not changed, but this industry has quietly changed. Alas, there is nothing I can do about it. I am old now, and the era belongs to you young people!"
Qin Xi couldn't stand hearing this kind of talk, and couldn't help but shed tears. "Dad is not old!"
"Silly child, how can people not grow old? The reason why I get along with you is not because of how famous you are now, but because I can see the shadow of my past in you. I know that you also really love filming."
The old man held the sword tightly and handed it to Qin Xi again. "I give you my original intention because I hope you can always keep it. No matter how impetuous the industry is, you can always keep the attitude of striving for excellence and treat people with sincerity. With your strong appeal, you will definitely be able to infect and motivate more young people!"
"You see, a sword is a double-edged sword. The more you gain and the greater your achievements, the more you must always be vigilant and not let victory carry you to your head and lose yourself..."
"Don't worry, Dad. I will definitely remember this. This is the best gift I have ever received!"
Listening to her father's earnest teachings, Qin Xi felt a father's love as strong as a mountain. Her father taught her sincerely as if she were his daughter. How precious!
Without the hard work of old artists like my father, how could China's film and television industry develop so fast and so well? Qin Xi nodded vigorously. She wanted to keep her father's advice firmly in her heart.
When everything was over, it was already very late. Qin Xi finally had the chance to take off the dress that was tight on her body and relax.
Qin Xi suddenly felt like something was missing. Oh, by the way, she hadn’t seen Gu Chenxing since the group photo. They were going their separate ways tomorrow. Wasn’t he... planning on saying goodbye to her?
