Chapter 197 Special Request
Inside the reception room, people arrived one after another, creating a lively scene.
Everyone greeted each other warmly upon meeting.
Although we haven't seen each other for a long time, our online communication has never stopped, and the revolutionary friendship we built while filming remains as strong as ever.
The atmosphere at the scene was extremely lively for a time.
When Zhang Yu arrived, he immediately attracted the attention of others.
Among this group of people, if we were to talk about who ascended the fastest, it would undoubtedly be Zhang Yu.
After becoming a sensation, he received countless scripts and offers.
Furthermore, some time ago, I received an invitation to become the spokesperson for a high-end luxury brand, becoming the brand's only spokesperson in China.
It has now become a focus of attention for both the fashion and film industries.
He nodded slightly, politely gestured to those around him, and then walked straight towards Bai Li, greeting her respectfully, "President Bai."
Bai Li was listening to Chu Xianxian recount his interesting experiences on variety shows when she heard Zhang Yu's voice. She subconsciously turned her head and her eyes met Zhang Yu's.
Bai Li had lost count of how many times she had been captivated by Zhang Yu's charm.
It must be admitted that Zhang Yu's appearance and unique temperament are truly exceptional even in the talent-rich entertainment industry.
He exudes a subtle "uncle vibe," not the somberness that comes with age, but a unique charm of a mature man.
Like a fine, aged wine, it becomes more fragrant and mellow with each sip, exuding a unique charm within its mature and composed nature.
Zhang Yu also came with makeup and styling today.
It's a style similar to "old money".
It perfectly blends maturity and sophistication with style and elegance.
The finely tailored dark gray three-piece suit accentuated his broad shoulders and slender waist, with the smooth lines outlining his perfect body proportions.
In the reception room at this moment, he was the most outstanding among the group of men whose looks scored above 80.
No one can beat it.
Bai Li couldn't help but exclaim in her heart: This...this is just too cool!
Although it might sound inappropriate to be infatuated with one's own employee, she had been a loyal fan of Zhang Yu long before he became one of her artists, a true super fan.
However, Bai Li is now someone who has "seen countless men," so she wouldn't lose her composure on the spot.
She quickly snapped out of her daze, her gaze falling on Zhang Yu's attire, and suddenly remembered that he had recently taken on a popular "political intrigue and domineering CEO" drama.
This must be the makeup and styling from the show; no wonder it's so grand.
It seems Zhang Yu just arrived from the film set.
Bai Li smiled and waved, "Zhang Yu, you're here."
Holding a half-eaten cookie, Chu Xianxian leaned over, her eyes shining, and said, "Teacher Zhang, you look like Al Pacino from 'The Godfather'! You have that 'suit-wearing thug' vibe!"
Zhang Yu smiled and thanked him, then pointed to his collar: "Xianxian, you have some matcha powder on your collar."
"Huh? Where? Where?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xianxian's face immediately showed a panicked expression. She quickly put down the cookies in her hand and frantically looked down to search.
His diet has been strictly controlled by his agent recently, and he finally took advantage of this opportunity to sneak a few extra cookies when he saw that there were free ones at the studio.
If it gets on my clothes and my manager finds out, I'm doomed!
Just as Bai Li was about to remind Chu Xianxian, she saw Zhang Yu naturally pull a handkerchief from his pocket and hand it to Chu Xianxian.
The moment I raised my hand, the watch flashed a cold light under the lamp; it was a limited edition from a top luxury brand—the endorsement deal I'd made last month.
Chu Xianxian took the handkerchief, hurriedly thanked Zhang Yu, and then ran to the restroom to take care of herself.
Meanwhile, the other people in the reception room were chatting animatedly in small groups, and no one noticed the little incident happening here.
In this small corner, only he and Zhang Yu remained.
Bai Li: ...
Why does it feel like Zhang Yu deliberately sent Chu Xianxian away?
This premonition is very strong.
When Bai Li's gaze returned to Zhang Yu, her premonition reached its peak.
Zhang Yu walked at a leisurely pace and sat down in the seat where Chu Xianxian had just been sitting.
He sat up straight, then turned his head slightly, looking intently at Bai Li, and asked softly, "President Bai, will you also be attending the Apollo Awards ceremony?"
His Adam's apple bobbed gently, and his voice was calm.
If Bai Li hadn't known his feelings, she probably would have thought he was just asking casually.
But Bai Li knew.
Even after so many months, Zhang Yu's affection for her has never diminished, and his favorability rating has not dropped below 70 points.
However, due to his deep and reserved personality, he hid his feelings very well.
In the adult world, especially for someone with Zhang Yu's personality, not a single word is superfluous.
Why did Zhang Yu suddenly ask that?
Bai Li swirled the glass in her hand, the ice cubes clinking inside. She answered truthfully, "Of course I'll go."
After all, this Apollo Awards ceremony was of extraordinary significance to the "Asking Immortals" crew, and they definitely wanted to be there to witness such a highlight.
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes, but he quickly became firm. He leaned forward slightly, his posture humble, and said slowly, "President Bai, to be honest, the character I play in this new drama needs to show the relaxed demeanor of a CEO. I've tried many methods, but I always feel like I'm missing something."
Upon hearing this, Bai Li subconsciously looked at Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu's expression was sincere, and his voice carried a hint of caution as he continued:
"I was thinking, would it be convenient for me to learn more from you on the way to the awards ceremony?"
After Zhang Yu asked the question, his eyes were fixed on him, as if he really wanted to portray the character well.
But as their eyes met, Bai Li noticed something else.
Persistence, anticipation, and a touch of urgency...
As an actor, it's perfectly understandable to constantly strive to improve one's acting skills.
That's a great reason; Bai Li really wanted to applaud Zhang Yu.
But Bai Li didn't believe that this was Zhang Yuzhen's purpose.
Zhang Yu, who has a strong sense of distance, would not make such a request.
Moreover, given Zhang Yu's acting skills, how could he not play the new role of "Old Qian Feng" well?
The temperament of this type of character matches his own mature charm quite well, and it's completely within his comfort zone.
A whopping 75 points of favorability...
Zhang Yu's purpose is obvious.
This should be the first time Zhang Yu has taken the initiative to make a move after the favorability rating reached 75 points or higher.
Bai Li felt a wave of helplessness and sighed inwardly.
My head hurts.
I don't want to touch my employees.
Moreover, Zhang Yu was on the rise.
In her mind, Zhang Yu should be a male protagonist whose ambition outweighs his feelings.
How can someone who's just become popular have such thoughts?
She should have refused...
Hesitation surged in Bai Li's heart, and her fingers unconsciously caressed the glass.
After a long silence, Bai Li parted her lips slightly and said, "Alright, since you have this need, let's talk about it on the way."
It was simply out of support for the employees' work, nothing more.
We must not allow things to spiral out of control.
