Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 287 Gong Li or Yang Mi
We have been instilled with a truth since childhood: diligence can make up for lack of talent, and that if you work hard, you can grind an iron rod into a needle.

This bowl of chicken soup is useful in many fields, but it may not be of any use in the field of art.

A very unpleasant thing to say is that if you don’t have talent, you really shouldn’t do artistic work.

Some things can be learned, but some things really can't be learned. If you don't have talent in this industry, you will only be a craftsman until you die.

Jing Tian is a person without talent.

She is well protected, works hard and endures hardships, but she just can't do it. She can become popular in the future and have several representative works, but she can't become an actress like Gong Li and Manyu who are famous in film history.

Liu Yifei's talent is not high enough, but her star is big enough. Li Qiutang planned the route for her to play vases and borders in the early stage, and then consider becoming an artist after she is 30 or even 35 years old.

Li Qiutang didn't say anything too harsh, but told her tactfully: "There are different types of actors in this world, there are those like Gong Li, and there are also..." Li Qiutang searched for a name in her mind, "like Yang Mi. Everyone wants to be the next Gong Li, but there's nothing wrong with being Yang Mi. It depends on your choice."

Li Qiutang did not analyze the problems with Jing Tian's acting skills, but instead talked about some topics regarding direction selection.

Li Qiutang really thinks Jing Tian can just go the route of becoming a traffic star and there is no need for her to prove how good she is at acting.

Although the opacity of the background will have an impact, this should not be a big problem. At worst, I can learn from Miss Han and go for the route of a rich lady with a blurred background.

Jing Tian didn't get a very direct answer from Li Qiutang, but Li Qiutang also gave her new inspiration.

To become an actor like Gong Li or an actor like Yang Mi.

Every actress wants to be Gong Li, but if you think about it, becoming an actress like Yang Mi is also the dream of countless people in the industry.

Jing Tian left with a heavy heart, and had only drunk less than half of the milk tea that Li Qiutang had offered him.

…………

Liu Yifei finally finished filming and returned to China!

"Pacific Rim" is expected to wrap up filming next month, but she left the crew ahead of schedule.

When I came back, I learned some gossip in the circle.

"Li Qiutang and Jing Tian are on a date shopping!"

"No wonder people say Jing Tian has a great background and endless resources. It turns out her boyfriend is Li Qiutang. A few days ago, the two of them were photographed shopping and drinking milk tea. But Li Qiutang is a big director in the circle, so no reporter dared to report it, but the circle already knew about it."

"The more two people seem to have nothing to do with each other, the more likely they are to be related. If you say Li Qiutang and Liu Yifei are together, I don't believe it. Li Qiutang filmed a music video for Jing Tian before her debut, and the two have never appeared together in public again. But no one knows whether they have any contact in private."

Liu Yifei has a Penguin account and has joined many gossip groups. One of her great pleasures during her free time is to lurk in the groups and watch gossip. She loves to watch it regardless of whether it is true or false.

Now that it happened to her, she immediately asked her agent for confirmation.

"There are indeed photos of the two of them walking down the street drinking milk tea."

Liu Yifei felt very disappointed.

"The director said that he went to see the post-production of "Ordinary Man" that day. Jing Tian wanted to invite him to dinner to talk about something, but he was not available, so he called Jing Tian over. The two of them drank a cup of milk tea during the break, and they dispersed in less than 10 minutes."

"Really?"

"Really? After drinking milk tea, the director went back to check the post-production. What can he do in 10 minutes?" The agent also told her, "Jing Tian is not an ordinary girl. She can't fall in love, at least not now. So just keep your mind at ease."

But this aroused Liu Yifei's curiosity: "Why is Jing Tian not simple?" She also wanted to know Jing Tian's background.

"I don't know." Her agent dampened her interest. "Don't look at me like that. I really don't know. I don't think many people in the industry know about it."

"Boring." Liu Yifei went home.

Liu Yifei returned to China after finishing filming, but Li Qiutang did not come to pick her up. He is now in his hometown in Fengtian to accompany his elderly parents. He did not come back during the Chinese New Year, so he should go back and stay for a few days now.

When Liu Yifei returned to her new house in Xishan and saw her boyfriend's pajamas in her closet, she realized her negligence.

She thought her mother must have seen it when she was packing up to move. But she was a grown-up girl now, and she should have been mentally prepared since her mother allowed her to stay overnight at Li Qiutang's apartment.

While packing their luggage, Liu Yifei and her assistant complained to her mother: "She disappeared again when I returned to China. What fun is there outside?" Liu Xiaoli thought her daughter would finish filming with the crew, so she went traveling during this time.

Her assistant laughed at her: "How old are you? Do you still need someone to pick you up?"

She also said, "My boyfriend is not here, and my mom is not here either. How pitiful." Having her secret exposed, Liu Yifei yelled, "You are making fun of me!"

The assistant argued with her: "You used ghosts to scare me on the set, and I can't make fun of you anymore!" Liu Yifei scared someone and made them cry, and she had to apologize and comfort them.

Liu Yifei also argued with her assistant: "Hey, I have a boyfriend, and you don't."

"I'm going to ask my mom to arrange a blind date for me tomorrow." The assistant was so angry that she even said this.

Liu Yifei had no choice.

In the evening, bored Liu Yifei invited several friends in Beijing to her home for a party.

Most of the visitors were classmates from Class 02, as well as Shu Chang and two or three other good friends.

"Yifei, your house is so big." Wang Jia said.

In fact, what is big is not the house, but the yard. Liu Yifei's house is only 450 square meters, which is not big among the luxury homes of celebrities in the entertainment industry. Her yard is over 600 square meters.

"Yifei, how much did you pay for this house?" Jiang Yiyan asked.

Liu Yifei did not reveal the specific amount, but joked: "The down payment for this house has used up all my savings. Now I am a pauper. If you have any films or commercials that you can't shoot, please introduce them to me. I am not picky."

"That's just right," Zhu Yawen said, "I met the owner of a fast food chain a few days ago. He said his company needs a spokesperson. I'll introduce him to you."

Jiang Yiyan smiled and said, "Why don't you want Yifei to be the spokesperson for hardware and water pipes?"

Zhu Yawen continued, "I also know someone who sells hardware and water pipes, and I can introduce him to you."

Talking and laughing, the friendship between classmates is quite warm.

Shu Chang was the only one present who knew about the relationship between Liu Yifei and Li Qiutang, so when Jiang Yiyan asked Liu Yifei why she had so much cooperation with Autumn Pictures, Shu Chang smiled.

"I'm so jealous of your resources, it's great." Jiang Yiyan said with a smile.

Jiang Yiyan has had good resources in the past two years. She got the leading female role in a movie like "The Four" and just finished filming "The Bullet Vanished" last month.

But these resources are not as good as "In Time" and "Pacific Rim".

Shu Chang doesn't like Jiang Yiyan. She said, "What are you comparing yourself to her?"

Liu Yifei certainly wouldn't take the initiative to tell the reason, she just said: "I went to the audition normally, and they hired me because they thought I was suitable. They found that I was cheap and easy to use, so they cooperated with me a few more times."

What Liu Yifei said is true, her pay is really not high.

In fact, Jiang Yiyan also guessed part of the reason. Her agent was with Orange Sky, but the supporter behind her was the owner of the cake shop.

She guessed that the supporter behind Liu Yifei should be a senior executive in Qiu.

Since Liu Yifei didn't want to say anything, she didn't ask any further questions.

When the show was over, Jiang Yiyan was the last to leave. She pulled Liu Yifei aside and whispered, "Yifei, can you lend me some more money?"

Liu Yifei had borrowed 200 million yuan from her before, and she paid it back on time. This time, Liu Yifei was not suspicious: "How much did you borrow? I don't have more than that."

Jiang Yiyan smiled and said, "Everyone knows that you are the rich girl in the class."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. How much do you want to borrow?"

"Do you have 500 million? I will definitely pay you back this year."

Liu Yifei thought about it and agreed: "Okay. Is it the same bank card number as last time?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll call you in a few days."

"You're the best, thank you Sissi."

"Okay, it's late now, be careful on your way back."
