The Rebirth of a Top Star

Song Shiyuan finished dealing with the messages in his hand before the company closed for the day. Before he could even stand up, there was another knock on the door outside.

His voice carried a barely perceptible hint of weariness. "Go in."

Just as he stood up, he saw Jing Tanqing come in, and Song Shiyuan plopped down again, silently putting the suit jacket he had taken off back on the chair.

"President, usually the male and female leads promote each other as a couple."

Jing Tanqing didn't waste any words and went straight to explaining his previous silence.

"Okay, I get it now."

Song Shiyuan answered directly.

Seeing that Song Shiyuan didn't ask any further questions, Jing Tanqing said, "Then, President, I'm off work."

The company has never believed in working overtime.

Song Shiyuan looked over again, "Are we a couple as business partners?"

"I think so." Jing Tanqing had already considered this possibility on the way here.

I realized that I might not have been precise enough.

He emphasized again, "Yes."

Song Shiyuan stopped asking questions, put on his clothes, and signaled to his assistant to clock out.

The two walked and talked, and employees greeted them as they passed by their workstations.

They watched the two who had just left and then began to discuss it openly.

"Do you think the assistant to the president earns more, or the president?"

Before the two of them got off the elevator, the other person carefully compared them and said, "I still think the assistant's suit shoes have higher heels."

Even top white-collar workers at large companies will talk about their boss's height after get off work.

Shen Nanqiao is about to wrap up filming.

She has been on set for three or four months. Although the production period is not long, this is the first movie that Shen Nanqiao has finished filming.

The weather was lovely the day I said goodbye to Zhou Wei.

The wind is blowing upwards along with the sun shower.

Shen Nanqiao leaned halfway out of a private room on the second floor of the teahouse, the light gauze at her elbow fluttering wildly in the wind as Fang Gu entered.

Swaying gently, it prematurely celebrates the love between the two.

Today, the natural light shines through the set and falls on Shen Nanqiao's clothes and skin, highlighting an unparalleled texture without the need for additional lighting.

Fang Gu was stunned by their initial encounter in the movie.

Whether it was Fang Gu who was stunned by Zhou Wei, or Fang Zihe who was stunned by Shen Nanqiao, who was now captured on the monitor screen, no one could know for sure.

After finishing the clapperboard, Fang Zihe took the initiative to go upstairs to help Shen Nanqiao down.

The second floor was a newly built stage. Zhao Yinhu had run around Hengdian several times but couldn't find a suitable scene, so after thinking it over, he finally decided to build one temporarily.

Shen Nanqiao was already struggling to get up there.

Fortunately, Fang Zihe had a conscience and came to help her down the makeshift wooden ladder. Shen Nanqiao slowly descended the ladder.

Wearing a flowing long dress is not very convenient.

Shen Nanqiao had no choice but to hold onto Fang Zihe's strong forearms tightly with both hands.

"Thank you for your trouble." The moment Shen Nanqiao's feet touched solid ground, she released Fang Zihe's arm.

"You're welcome."

Uncharacteristically, he didn't offer any rebuttal.

Shen Nanqiao took a few more glances and realized that something was amiss.

As we stepped out of the teahouse, screenwriter Sister Zhao greeted us with a bouquet of flowers and a smile.

"Congratulations to Nan Qiao on wrapping up filming. Her first movie has come to a perfect end."

Zhao Yinhu, who was following behind, also handed Fang Zihe a bouquet of flowers. Fang Zihe simply thanked him and, without even looking at them, handed them to Tony, who had just arrived that day.

The bald man standing behind Fang Zihe was taken aback by his actions and looked at the director in confusion, "Director Zhao, is there a part for me here?"

The bouquet looked unusually small in Li Jiazhu's hands, and even the director was stumped by the question.

Fang Zihe stood still without offering any explanation.

Shen Nanqiao simply looked up and shifted her gaze, meeting Tony's eyes directly.

"Shen girl, here you go."

Shen Nanqiao's arm, as thick as her waist, reached out, and before anyone knew it, another bouquet of flowers, just like Shen Nanqiao's, had appeared.

Shen Nanqiao hesitated for a moment, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Shen Nanqiao looked at Fang Zihe and asked directly.

"Fine, take it." Fang Zihe glanced at it briefly, replying in a bad mood, then shook off the group of people and left.

This really startled Tony. Although this little rascal is usually playful and childish, he would never throw a tantrum in public. Li Jiazhu couldn't help but quickly follow after him, and even called out to the director before leaving, "If we're taking a group photo later, be sure to call us over, I'll go check it out."

He pointed in the direction Fang Zihe had left.

Shen Nanqiao felt completely baffled.

The two large bouquets of flowers in her hands were quite in the way, and there was nowhere suitable to put them. At this moment, Shen Nanqiao really missed the days when she had an assistant.

Not everything can be borne by oneself.

"I'm going to ask Sister Du to arrange an assistant for me right away," Shen Nanqiao thought to herself. Initially, she didn't ask for an assistant; Shen Nanqiao planned to wait for her good friend from her previous life.

She knew her own feelings and acted decisively. When they talked about the days before she became his assistant, Shen Nanqiao guessed that she had entered the industry around that time.

However, no relevant traces were found.

If all else fails, we should hire someone first.

"Director, when will our movie be released? When will I be able to see Zhou Wei on the big screen?"

In her previous life, the movie's release went smoothly, and Shen Nanqiao's first step was a natural progression. However, things are different in this life, and Shen Nanqiao dares not gamble on past successes.

Ask a question, just to put your mind at ease.

"I don't know the specifics yet, but I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."

Zhao Yinhu looked at Shen Nanqiao with some pity. He thought that Shen Nanqiao was afraid that she would have no more roles to play after this movie was finished, and that the young girl was afraid to say it directly, so she asked in a roundabout way.

Zhao Yinhu felt increasingly sorry for him.

"Don't worry, Xiao Shen, I will definitely do what I told you before."

Zhao Yinhu seems like a passionate young man who has once again made up his mind; this movie is sure to be a huge hit.

Shen Nanqiao sent a message to Du Junyi that day, but Du Junyi's manager was probably busy, and Shen Nanqiao waited for a long time without receiving a reply.

Even after Shen Nanqiao slumped onto the sofa and fell asleep, there wasn't a single reply on her phone.

Left with no other choice, Shen Nanqiao went directly to the big boss.

I thought the matter had been reported to be urgent, but I still haven't received a reply.

"Goodness, everyone's busy, huh?" Shen Nanqiao went from worrying that something might happen to them to worrying about herself.

I hurriedly checked my phone, but there was still no news online about Song Shiyuan's acquisition of an overseas company.

Shen Nanqiao was puzzled. Logically speaking, there should have been rumors or results announced in the past few days.

After looking around without finding a result, Shen Nanqiao simply threw her phone aside, not wanting to look at it anymore.

"You still have to rely on yourself."

Shen Nanqiao let out her first sigh in her life.

The money she currently has is still what she saved from part-time jobs during her university years. Shen Nanqiao knows that she won't be receiving her film salary anytime soon.

After lying at home for three days, I decided to look for extra work again, because I still need to make a living.

In fact, she wasn't wrong. Song Shiyuan was indeed busy, so busy that he was practically running around.

Shen Nanqiao's initial information was incredibly accurate. Song Shiyuan's final work is almost complete, with only the final step remaining.
