Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

"Ah! I'm sorry!" After bumping into someone, Li Zhi subconsciously apologized in Mandarin.

"It's okay." Xu Cun replied in Mandarin.

"Are you from the mainland too?" Li Zhi looked at Xu Cun and asked in surprise.

"I am from Heilongjiang, and my ancestral home is Jiangsu." Xu Cun said with a smile.

"Your accent seems to be from Shanghai?" Xu Cun asked tentatively.

"Well, I only arrived in Xiangjiang in the first half of the year." Lizhi said.

"I came here in 1977, and I stayed in Huangpu District for a few months before I came here." Xu Cun said.

"My family lives in Huangpu District!" Lizhi said with a little surprise.

"In this way, we can still be regarded as half fellows...By the way, why did you come to DreamWorks?" Xu Cun said.

"Come to participate in the audition." Li Zhi replied.

"Have you chosen?" Xu Cun asked.

"No." Li Zhi shook her head.

"You are so beautiful and you didn't get selected? Is the person in charge of the audition blind?" Xu Cun said with an exaggerated expression.

"How beautiful am I? Some time ago, I went to New Art City to audition, and people said I was native." Li Zhi laughed at herself.

"That's because they don't know how to appreciate your beauty. In my opinion, you are a peerless beauty that is rarely seen in fifty years." Xu Cun praised.

After being praised by Xu Cun, Li Zhi's face turned red all of a sudden——nowadays, the mainland is still very conservative. In the mainland, there are very few people who directly praise strange women like Xu Cun.

Seeing that Lizhi's face was already red, Xu Cun was afraid that he would scare Lizhi away because he was too frivolous, so he changed the subject and said, "Do you really want to be an actor?"

"...It doesn't count. The main reason is that I don't really want to be a salesperson." Lizhi hesitated and said.

"Do you like to deal with trivial matters?" Xu Cun asked.

"...It's okay." Lizhi thought for a while and said.

"I heard that Xu Cun still lacks a secretarial assistant. I think you can try it." Xu Cun said calmly.

"I am a secretarial assistant for Mr. Xu? Don't make fun of me. I can't even speak Cantonese. How can I be a secretarial assistant for Mr. Xu?" Li Zhi waved her hands repeatedly.

"Xu Cun's secretarial assistants don't need to speak Cantonese. Others will accommodate Xu Cun's secretarial assistants who speak Mandarin. Of course, Xu Cun's secretarial assistants should learn Cantonese... Think about it, if you Xu Cun's secretarial assistant, those who say you're ugly, dare to say you again? Maybe one day in the future, they will sneak up on you. Don't you think this is very interesting?" Xu Cun smiled.

"That also requires me to be Mr. Xu's secretarial assistant. How could such a big man like him ask me, a mainland girl, to be his secretarial assistant?" Li Zhi shook her head again and again.

"Why not? Xu Cun is Daluzai, what's wrong with Daluzai asking Dalumei to be his secretarial assistant?" Xu Cunli said bluntly.

"..." Li Zhi didn't know how to answer Xu Cun's words.

Seeing that Li Zhi didn't speak, Xu Cun raised his index finger and said, "Xu Cun's office is at the top, if you want to be his secretary assistant, just go up and find him."

After a pause, Xu Cun said again with a smile on his face: "I still have some urgent matters that need to be dealt with immediately, let's talk later."

After speaking, Xu Cun waved to Lizhi and left.

Xu Cun left very abruptly—so abruptly that Li Zhi, who had just had a crush on Xu Cun, didn't even have time to ask Xu Cun's name.

Standing in place and watching Xu Cun enter the elevator, Li Zhi turned and left DreamWorks.

...

On the minibus back home.

The words of several young people in their twenties reached Lizhi's ears.

"Have you watched "Best Partner"? It's so funny! When I watched it yesterday, my stomach almost burst out laughing!"

"I watched it, "Best Partner" is really good, and that dead bald guy in Mecca is so funny!"

"I haven't watched it, and I don't plan to watch it. I like Cheng Long. His movies are all hard work. I'll watch his "Master Dragon" in a while."

"I've watched both "Best Partner" and "Master Dragon". To be fair, "Best Partner" is better. Although "Master Dragon" is good, it still has the same routines, which are a bit outdated."

"Agreed. Kung Fu movies are outdated, and the future must be the era of blockbuster movies like "Best Partner."

"Who said kung fu movies are outdated, you haven't seen good kung fu movies."

"Is there any good kung fu movie released recently? Why don't I know?"

"The "Shaolin Temple", which is showing in Yindu Cinemas recently, is called a kung fu movie, and "Master Dragon" is not worthy of lifting the shoes of "Shaolin Temple"!"

"Silver can show any good movie, except for educational films, promotional films, or old model plays."

"This time, you are really wrong. The "Shaolin Temple" shown in Yindu is really good. Li Lianjie played it beautifully. Cheng Long really let him compare! Now, the ticket office in Yindu is full of people who want to buy "Shaolin Temple" movie ticket people."

"Is "Shaolin Temple" really that good-looking?"

"Don't you know after going to see it once?"

"Hey, why don't you talk about Xu Cun's "Home Alone"?"

"Please! Xu Cun's movie is a must-see, okay?"

"This statement is justified. No matter what kind of film Xu Cun makes, we have to support him. Xiangjiang finally has a world-class director, or the world's number one director. If we Xiangjiang people don't support him, who will support him?"

"I think the quality of "Home Alone" itself is nothing to say, it is both funny and novel! By the way, do you have the feeling that "Home Alone" seems to be ahead of "Best Partner" by several years."

"Who doesn't know that "The Best Bai File" is derived from Xu Cun's "Royal Senior Sister", and "Royal Senior Sister" is a movie made by Xu Cun two years ago. Isn't it normal that there is a bit of time difference between the two?"

"It's a pity that there are no Xiangjiang people in "Home Alone", otherwise it would be more perfect."

"There's no way around it. "Home Alone" is a Hollywood movie after all... Actually, we Xiangjiang people should be content. Apart from Xu Cun's movie, which Hollywood movie premiered in Xiangjiang ?”

"That's right, that's why I've always supported Xu Cun, this girl never forgets her roots."

"Isn't Xu Cun a mainlander? What does the non-essential have to do with us Xiangjiang people?"

"Grass! You are brainless!"

"That's right, how can Xu Cun be considered a mainlander?"

"Ignore him! He's stupid!"

"Through several generations, which one of us didn't come from the mainland? Is it from Xiangjiang? It doesn't depend on where he came from, it depends on what he has done for the land of Xiangjiang?"

"..."

Hearing that several young people tried their best to pull Xu Cun, a mainlander, into the Xiangjiang camp, Li Zhi actually felt like laughing—at this moment, Li Li suddenly understood a truth: it doesn’t matter where the person is, it’s important What matters is whether a person has the ability. If a person is capable, no matter where he is, he will be respected by others. vice versa.

"laugh!"

The minibus arrived at the station where Lizhi was going to get off.

On the way to get off.

Lizhi accidentally saw that among the young people who were talking about movies, the person on the cover of the magazine held by one of them turned out to be the young man who had just persuaded him to apply for Xu Cun's secretary assistant.

Although Li Zhi, who was in a hurry to get off the car, was very surprised, she didn't think much about it.

On the way home, the young man's face kept flashing in Lizhi's mind.

Sudden!

Lizhi suddenly realized: "Ah! He is Xu Cun!"

It's not that Li Zhi has never met Xu Cun, but she never thought that the young man who talked to her for a long time would be Xu Cun, so she was stunned.

The cover of the magazine reminded Lizhi, and Lizhi remembered that the young man talking to her was Xu Cun.

Immediately afterwards, Lizhi suddenly remembered what Xu Cun had said to her.

Thinking of what Xu Cun said, "Xu Cun's office is at the top, if you want to be his secretary assistant, just go up to him." Li Zhi immediately turned around, and trotted back to the minibus station...
