I'm the director, I'm not bad

Chapter 200 198. Loyalty
Early in the morning on December 12nd, Yang Mi was woken up by the ringing of the phone.

Reluctantly, he opened his eyes, grabbed his phone and said impatiently:
"Hey, who!"

"Mimi, me."

"...Sister Zeng?"

Yang Mi was a little confused, but after hearing this, she quickly turned her head and glanced at her boyfriend who was sleeping soundly next to her, then got out of bed as quietly as possible, opened the door of the suite, and walked out.

When she came to the living room of the room, she said:
"Sister Zeng, what's the matter?"

Her voice was still hoarse when she spoke.

Then I heard Zeng Jia ask:
"How did you get involved with a young model?"

"……what?"

Yang Mi, who was about to pour some water to drink, looked at a loss:
"Tender model? What is a tender model?"

This word... is a bit out of line for Yang Mi.

In fact, I don't blame her, because this vocabulary is indeed a new vocabulary, and it was born less than half a year ago.

For mainlanders, it is too unfamiliar.

But in fact, the word was first coined in July this year by a member named Fu Ying in a former girl group "COOKIES" in Xiangjiang.

In July this year, Fu Ying released a solo album "MY CUP OF T".

To say that the album is actually nothing, but in order to compete for sales, she also included a photobook in the album.

The photos in the photobook...

Well, how to say.

It's pretty good~
Fu Ying herself is not very old, she is only 22 years old this year, and she looks pretty.

The looks in the photobook are also different from the traditional model looks, focusing on the cute Japanese idol style.

It's the kind of swimsuit photo shoot or something.

In the traditional thinking of China, although there is also the term "plane model", the clothes of these plane models are relatively serious, relying on their outstanding appearance and shape to find the audience.And usually, summer swimwear photos like this...are a bit off the mark.

It cannot be registered in mainstream magazines.

As for Fu Ying's Japanese-style portraits, with her bold style, the girly photos that are either revealing or not, suddenly became popular in the Xiangjiang area.

Even this set of photos sold more copies than the album.

And...it's an old tradition in Hong Kong's entertainment industry.The popularity of a theme will attract countless latecomers to frantically mine economic value.

Fu Ying took the lead, and the style of Japanese style portraits quickly spread in the Xiangjiang area.

And the models of these photo shoots all have a very unified characteristic, that is, to continue the Japanese style.

The Japanese love "natural beauty".

Therefore, most of the idols who can take these photos are high school students.

Although Xiangjiang's side is not so frantic, they find a group of underage children every day... But the models they are looking for also resolutely reject those so-called regular models who are tall and leggy, and walk on catwalks.

Such a model is not good, it is too upright.

unnatural".

Therefore, the objects we are looking for are some cute and beautiful "amateur models" who have not undergone formal model training, and are not even very old. They require big eyes, sweet smiles, and cute and beautiful "amateur models".

And because these girls are very tender, over time, they have a title called "Mo".

This is the Cantonese name, which translates to "tender model".

And Fu Ying is called "the originator of young models".

As a result, the term tender model began to rise.

And the rise of an industry is bound to usher in some chaos. First of all, it is because these young models have not received professional training, and some of them are taller than the standard line of 175 models.Thank goodness for being able to pass 1.6 meters.

What's more, they don't have the temperament of the models, so they can't walk on the stage, so they can only rely on bold clothes to attract attention.

To put it bluntly, it is called boldness, but to put it bluntly, it is actually selling meat.

Everyone liked it at the beginning, but Xiangjiang's entertainment model is destined to be difficult to last no matter what is born.

After a few months of hot weather, the market for young models began to be compressed.

When everyone is used to selling meat, there is basically no difference between whether the meat is sold or not.

Therefore, when people in this industry have enjoyed the brilliance of "surrounding", when they are lonely, on the one hand, the market is sluggish and there is no exposure.On the other hand, the mind is immature.Inevitably, the industry was thrown into chaos.

As for the chaos, Zeng Jia didn't elaborate.

But according to her, this industry is now desperate for exposure and eyeballs.

Don't talk about face... There are many people who can give up dignity, body, and everything.

Why are you getting involved with these shitty people?

After understanding the meaning of "tender model" in Sister Zeng's mouth, Yang Mi was even more confused:

"I don't know...they, what's the relationship?"

"Then why did a young model say she was good friends with you? Quickly read the email I sent you, there is a screenshot of the news on it."

"Um... well."

Yang Mi responded, walked to the sofa and turned on the laptop.

After logging into her mailbox, she clicked on the email sent by Zeng Jia, and she saw news links one after another.

The hotel's internet speed is quite fast, she opened all of them directly, and then read them page by page.

……

"The first Jay Chou Hong Kong concert was a complete success!"

"Amateur singer who doesn't lose to the lead singer and Jay Chou sing on the same stage!"

"The director and supporting actress of "The Unspeakable Secret" appeared on the scene to cheer for Jay."

"Exposed! Young model angelbaby is actually good friends with Yang Mi, loyal Yang Mi strongly recommends her friend to be Jay Chou's backup dancer, and the photos of the sisters are showing off on the same stage!"

"Yang Mi's friend is also a big beauty, and the young model angelbaby personally dances for Jay Chou."

"Jay Chou played tricks on his fans. He seemed to be inviting amateurs, but he actually promoted the company's singer Deng Ziqi."

"Backstage photos of Jay Chou's concert leaked out, Yang Mi visited the set in person, behaving intimately!"

……

After browsing around for a while, Yang Mi understood what was going on when she saw the photo sent by the girl who danced to her yesterday.

She was being used.

After the girl asked herself yesterday for a group photo, she didn't say "wash it out and put it at home", but gave it to the reporter...

but……

be honest.

Yang Mi looked at the content of the news...

This girl named angelbaby is quite sensible.

Also very smart.

Although the whole content is not uttered through her mouth, it is described through the judgment directly made by the reporter, describing herself and this girl as "good friends", "speaking loyalty", "I am popular, and seeing friends Even struggling in the young model world, I reached out to help" relationship.

But this thing can actually be figured out with her toes. If she hadn't told the reporter, how could the reporter be able to dig out so many "situations" with just one photo?
Not to mention that the circumstances themselves are false.

It can only be made up, not dug out.

And even if you want to edit, you must at least have a general direction first.

Otherwise, it would be like catching wind and shadows in these reports, pretending that he went to visit Jay Chou, and then there would be some gossip reports.And if you look at it according to this rhythm, rather than gossip about your relationship with Jay Chou, the media dug out that you saw your friend’s life was not good, helped him out, and pushed it to Jay Chou as a backup dancer, which is more appropriate.

Although, in the future, this matter may develop into this young model called baby consuming his own heat, such as using the so-called "friend relationship" to appear on some variety shows or commercial performances, but at least it did not lead the public opinion to himself and Jay Chou "There's a story" situation.

On the contrary, they are exaggerating their "loyalty".

"Ha~"

Seeing this, she couldn't help laughing out loud.

She could tell that this girl should try her best to... get ahead.

But his brain is not so hot, and he is quite clever.

Not stupid.

I know that there are some things that I can say, and some things that I dare not say indiscriminately.

That's why she found a position accurately. Compared with the Qishangquan, which may offend herself and Jay Chou, but can make her popularity rise for a short time, she chose a more secure one, but it made her less confident. This news came out in a way that could not be refused.

Pretty smart.

Not like a mindless moron.

At this time, after hearing her laughter, Zeng Jia said speechlessly:

"You can still laugh? This group of people just want to be popular and crazy! You know! We have to clarify quickly and get rid of the relationship. What kind of shit young models, want to be popular, want to be popular!?"

"clarify?"

After hearing Zeng Jia's words, Yang Mi asked back.

"Yes, clarify. Quickly clarify, the young model industry is very dirty, messy and messy! I just found this angelbaby's photo... You can find it by searching, it's really... cheap! "

Yang Mi ignored Zeng Jia's statement, but continued:

"I think it's better not to clarify."

"..."

Zeng Jia's words seemed to be stuck in the neck suddenly.

After a pause...

"what!?"

"Sister Zeng, calm down for a while."

Staring at a piece of news about angelbaby's past photos and history, Yang Mi sat on the sofa, crossed her legs gracefully, and picked up the wide-mouthed crystal cup in the hotel.

Obviously there is water in the glass.

Obviously she is still bareheaded now.

But...if someone sees the aura exuding from her at this moment, they will definitely feel that she is like a scheming fox female president at this moment.

I saw the light called wisdom shining in her eyes, holding up the phone and saying word by word:

"Not only did not clarify, but I wanted to push her."

"...Mimi, are you crazy?"

Zeng Jia was speechless.

"No."

After taking a sip of water, Yang Mi put down her glass, looked at the photo of a girl in cheap clothes, posing cute and sweet to the camera, but with a..."Harbor City" label on her chest, and continued:
"A gift that came to your door, why not?"

"...?"

Through the phone, Yang Mi could feel the doubt coming from there.

So, she explained:
"Sister Zeng, there are many labels that can be placed on a person, such as beautiful, beautiful, elegant, intellectual, generous, smart... But these labels are not enough to represent a person's inner quality, but some labels can be easily pulled down. A person's worth, and it is difficult to remove.

For example, Guo Fucheng, everyone knows that he is stingy, right?For example, frugality, many Xiangjiang people think of Liu Qingyun.For example, righteousness, who do you think of?Brother Zhang Guorong, right? ... You see, these labels are not created by themselves, but given by fans.Some people want it but can't get it, and now... such an opportunity is in front of me.Why should I let it miss? "

"Uh...you..."

Zeng Jia was stunned...

"Mimi, what do you mean..."

"This is a great opportunity to establish myself as a "loyalty" persona, right? The news has already become popular, so whether I knew her or not...after clarification, there are only three outcomes.

One kind of people think: ah, it turns out that it's a young model again.

This doesn't help me, because her popularity will increase anyway.

What about the second type of person: Who is Yang Mi? Who is angelbaby?Don't know, don't care.

This is no loss for me, but it also doesn't help, but it will help her.I reckon she was able to figure this out, so she came up with this so-called "good friend" persona.

But what about the third type of person?If they are inherently prejudiced against me, or if they don't like angelbaby, they will think: Ah, Yang Mi is too ungrateful.Being with her can share joys and sorrows, but not wealth.

I was labeled as such an unfounded label because of an unneeded person.Sister Zeng, don't you think it will be very troublesome and not worth it? "

"..."

Yang Mi's rhetorical question already made Zeng Jia not know what to say.

I can only subconsciously say:

"So... I... what should we do?"

"Ha~"

Yang Mi liked hearing the term "we" very much, so she said unhurriedly:
"Uncle Xu once told me that you should be generous when you treat your own people. When you treat outsiders, you should make people look as generous as you are when you treat your own people. So... Well, let me think about it."

As she spoke, she checked the time on the computer.

10:20.

After thinking for a while, he said:
"Okay, don't worry about this matter, Miss Zeng, I'll handle it myself. Don't worry about it on your side...Okay, that's it for now, I'll make a call."

"Uh... good. But will she really listen to you and do what you tell her?"

"Well……"

After hearing this, Yang Mi thought for a while and said in a meaningful tone:

"I'll make an offer she can't refuse."

"..."

Zeng Jia hung up the phone with a stomach full of absurd, but also... inexplicable emotions.

Then I sat in my office and stared blankly for a long time.

No one knew what she was thinking.

After a while, she let out a sigh:
"Oh... I missed it."

……

"Dudu... Hey, sister Mimi, what's the matter?"

"Dani, are you up?"

"Uh... get up, get up. Sister Mimi, what's the matter, tell me."

"Well, I would like to trouble you, contact the person in charge of the dance troupe at yesterday's concert, help me find the phone number of a girl named angelbaby, and ask her to contact you. Then... tell her, I will only give her half an hour Time. Wait for me on the first floor of the hotel in half an hour. No waiting after the expiration date. Then send her my phone number."

Following Yang Mi's words, Dani sat up and began to record Yang Mi's request with a note.

After Yang Mi finished speaking, although she didn't know what happened, she still responded:
"Okay, Sister Mimi, I know... Do you want to inform JAY brother about this?"

"No need. I'll tell you Brother Xu directly, just contact me after you wake up."

"Okay okay."

"Ah."

The phone hangs up.

The girl glanced at the photos in the laptop again, showing a bright smile.

So, we each take what we need, right?
Smart kid.

Smiling, she picked up the phone again:
"Hey, Seventh Brother...Hey, can you please be my driver later?...Hey, um, okay, I will contact you later when I am about to leave."

……

"...Hi, you...Hello, Miss Dani, I'm baby...you're looking for me...what can I do?"

"It's not me looking for you, it's Sister Mimi looking for you. I'll give you half an hour to come to Pacific Royal Hotel. You won't wait after the expiration date, did you hear me?"

"..."

"Did you hear that?"

"Listen... I heard it, I know!"

"Ah."

After the phone was hung up, the girl sitting in front of the computer instinctively glanced at her own news on the webpage, and there was timidity in her eyes...

At this time.

With a ding, a text message came to her phone.

When I opened it, I saw a string of mobile phone numbers, followed by a sentence:

"Sister Mimi's phone number."

"!"

I even gave myself a phone number! ?

In an instant, confusion was added to that timidity.

However, this confusion was quickly replaced by the idea of ​​"time is too late" after seeing the time in the lower right corner of the computer for 1 minute.

She stood up scrambling and quickly walked towards the closet.

In less than 3 minutes, he put on a pair of jeans, a large sweater, stepped on a pair of fairly new sneakers, and ran out of his rental house with a cosmetic bag.

After half an hour.

After paying the fare, the girl who had finished a simple make-up in the taxi looked at the fountain of the Royal Hotel and dialed the mobile phone number.

Dudu~
"Hey."

"Mi... Miss Mimi, hello, I am baby. I... I have already arrived downstairs in the hotel."

"Well, okay, I'll go down now."

Doodle.

The phone hangs up.

But it rang again immediately.

The girl looked down and quickly connected the phone:

"Hello...boss."

"Yang Ying! What are you doing!? I'm so tired! Who told you to share the photos of Jay Chou's concert!? Bad chicken! Are you crazy about being popular!..."

A burst of abuse rang out from the phone.

And from the beginning to the end, her expression was very calm.

Because these are expected things.

If the people in the backstage casually leak some inside information about the guests, or backstage news... Who will use this kind of dance troupe in the future?

That is tantamount to cutting off other people's money.

That's why she told Ah Yi yesterday that she would definitely not be able to stay in the dance troupe anymore.

Because when she did something like this, no dance troupe would use her again.

This was something she had already thought about yesterday and was mentally prepared for.

But after thinking about it, she still came up with the excuse she explained a long time ago:

"I'm sorry, boss, I'm really sorry, it's not me, it's really not me! I like Yang Mi, so I asked my roommate to develop the photos for me. Who knew she would sell my photos to the paparazzi..."

"You old man, do you think I'm a child..."

Another series of insults.

In the end, the other party hung up the phone amidst the curses of "You are finished! Bad chicken! No backup dance troupe in Xiangjiang will use you anymore, get out of here."

And she pursed her lips again.

Anxious to smoke...

But at this moment, a commercial vehicle drove out of the basement.

There were two "didi" sounds.

She turned her head subconsciously, and saw the lights of the car flickering at her twice.

"..."

Heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Anxiety appeared in the eyes...

But she still walked over.

After walking over, Sun Ting, who was in the co-pilot, got off, took a look at her, and opened the door directly.

On the middle seat of the car, she was also dressed in a very low-key way. She even chose a pair of jeans and a wide sweater at the same time as her. Yang Mi, who was wearing a fisherman's hat, hooked her up:

"Get in the car."

"Go...where?"

But Yang Mi stopped looking at her and didn't respond.

It was as if the choice was given to her again.

After hesitating for a few seconds, the girl got into the car anyway.

Then the car door was closed, and the silent driver Chen Qi drove towards a place unknown to the girl.

There was silence in the car.

Only the roar of the engine.

And the same "young" Yang Mi sitting next to him seemed to be under endless pressure.

The pressure made her a little out of breath.

Obviously, all the predictions, pressures and other possibilities have been prepared yesterday.

But... when she really found out that she was going to face Yang Mi, she was still scared...

Even thinking about whether it is a bit too hasty to do so.

After all... not to mention Xu Xin and Jay Chou.

Just Yang Mi herself... crushing herself is no different from an ant...

atmosphere……

Getting stagnant.

And just when the girl felt that her heartbeat was about to stop, Yang Mi finally spoke.

He didn't look at her, but leaned on the chair, crossed his legs gracefully, looked out the window and said word by word:

"The two of us met when we were filming the Tianchao version of "RAY" in Shanghai."

"...?"

The girl was taken aback...

Then I heard Yang Mi continue to say:

"At that time, I wasn't looking for a girl, and you were just a young model who had just signed a contract with a Japanese agency. Because I was waiting for the shooting, we chatted a few words, and I found it very close. You are a local in Shanghai, so after the shooting, we went to eat together. Friendship formed. We have a good relationship, always in touch.”

"...?????"

"Later I became a girl, and you chose to come to Xiangjiang to develop your career. And after I became popular because of "The Unspeakable Secret" and "Golden Armor", I didn't forget you. Knowing that your career is currently hindered, so this time I am very special I invite you to be Jay's backup dancer."

"??????"

The girl is already dumbfounded.

But Yang Mi continued:

"Also, I also helped you find the photos of the Christmas girl magazine of "Ruili" in December. Remember to tell your agent, and Sun Ting will give you the contact information of "Ruili" in a while."

After speaking, for the first time at last, Yang Mi turned her head. Although she was looking directly at her, she asked as if condescending:
"Remember? This is the starting point of our friendship."

"Mi... Sister Mimi... I..."

She seemed to want to say something, but Yang Mi didn't give her a chance, but continued:

"Now, call the reporter you contacted last night. Tell him that you will go shopping in Central with Yang Mi. He can come and take pictures, but they can only be sneak shots. Yang Mi doesn't know what you are doing. And This report, which can be published after filming, has only two core points.

One, Yang Mi has never forgotten you as a friend who has been inseparable.Although I don't come to Xiangjiang very often, every time I come, I will take you shopping and shopping.And try to find job opportunities for you as much as possible.And every time Yang Mi will give you money, but definitely not much, Yang Mi will be very careful to maintain your self-esteem.

Second, Yang Mi is a very generous person to her friends. Even if she doesn’t tell her about a friend’s difficulties, she will take the initiative to help as long as she knows about it, and she will pay special attention to other people’s feelings, and never use a superior attitude of charity .How much strength, how much strength to make.And never expect anything in return from others.She values ​​everyone's friendship. "

"..."

The girl who suddenly understood what Sister Mimi was going to do had lost the ability to speak.

After Yang Mi finished speaking, she put away her condescending eyes, and her face was full of smiles and joy like a spring breeze:
"Baby, so, welcome to be my good friend. May our friendship last forever, okay?"

In the eyes of the girl who was full of thoughts of "did I use her, or did she use me"... I don't know how to describe it.

Yang Mi held out her hand.

At the same time waiting for her reply.

Yang Ying lowered her head instinctively, looking at those extremely well-maintained palms that could be called icy muscles...

This time... who made the money?

I?
or her?
For no reason, an idea popped into her mind.

I put my soul...

at this moment……

betrayed to the devil.
