Chapter 174 Suddenly Frozen
Chapter 174 Suddenly Frozen
Naturally, she didn't want to have an unpleasant quarrel with him so early in the morning, so she said, "Okay."
I have already signed the contract with Shengyi. The next step is the press conference, and then I will pack up and join the crew.
As soon as I arrived at the company, Cheng Luo ran over.
He seemed very happy and gave Jiang Qian a thumbs up.
"Boss Jiang, you are really amazing. You finally won my heart. I admire you."
Although it is true, the words sound a bit uncomfortable.
Jiang Qian corrected him, "It's not about taking over, it's about cooperation. We'll be colleagues in the future, so be nice to Sheng Yi."
"That's natural."
Cheng Luo was just about to talk about the press conference when he saw Qi Nian walking over.
Jiang Qian was sitting on a chair and was filled with joy when she heard Cheng Luo's words.
"Qi Nian, you have good luck in your career. After this shoot, your position will be unshakable."
Compared to Cheng Luo's joy, Qi Nian's face was solemn.
He looked at Cheng Luo, who was smiling brightly, and asked, "Can you go out for a while?"
Cheng Luo's smile froze on his cheeks, and he stood aside, motionless.
"Please go out for a moment. I have something to say to Mr. Jiang."
With the success of this cooperation, Qi Nian should be the happy one, but he doesn't seem happy.
Cheng Luo nodded, walked out, and quickly closed the door.
Suddenly, Jiang Qian and Qi Nian were the only ones left in the huge office.
She asked: "What's wrong?"
"I want to know..." Qi Nian said directly: "What conditions did you set for your cooperation?"
There are conditions, of course.
Jiang Qian looked up at Qi Nian's uneasy expression and spoke softly.
"Of course the conditions are yours. I agreed to cooperate only because of your face."
As Qi Nian's boss, she felt that she had to talk nicely.
But I really didn't want to, so I just said what was in my heart.
She was a little worried that Qi Nian wouldn't be able to accept it if it was too direct.
But Qi Nian was not surprised at all, but the doubts in his heart seemed to have not dissipated.
"What, just this?"
"Of course I know what Sheng Yi thinks of me, but I know very well that I don't have that much face."
"I won't let Shengyi change her mind because of me. She's not that superficial."
It seems that Qi Nian's understanding of Sheng Yi was beyond Jiang Qian's imagination.
She nodded and said to Qi Nian, "That means you have other intentions. As for what they are, I don't know. Let's wait and see."
Qi Nian reminded: "Then be careful."
Cheng Luo's efficiency is really high. He held the press conference in the afternoon.
There were only three people from the circle who attended the press conference, Qi Nian, Jiang Qian and Sheng Yi.
As soon as Shengyi arrived, he seemed very friendly. He walked over quickly and grabbed Jiang Qian's hand.
Jiang Qian felt very uncomfortable with the overly friendly behavior.
After all, they were on edge the past two days, and now they are suddenly too friendly, which will always attract criticism.
But Shengyi didn't care at all. He ignored the camera behind him and quickly leaned close to Jiang Qian's ear.
"Boss Jiang, please fulfill your promise to me and don't hinder me from pursuing Qi Nian."
Jiang Qian looked at Qi Nian who was not far away. God knows, if Qi Nian heard these words, he would just quit and leave.
It was really scary to think about it, so she didn't agree and her face turned pale.
Cheng Luo took the microphone and started his opening remarks.
"Welcome everyone, the theme of today's press conference is our company's new drama..."
When the cast was announced, Cheng Luo held the list with a look of joy on his face.
"The male lead is played by Qi Nian, the female lead is played by Jiang Qian, and the second female lead is played by Sheng Yi."
Cheng Luo spoke every word clearly.
After hearing this, everyone quickly applauded. Qi Nian on the side also clapped calmly, without any sign of abnormality in his sincerity.
That’s not right. We clearly said that Shengyi would play the leading female role, so how did she become the second female lead?
Jiang Qian felt uneasy and asked in a low voice: "Cheng Luo, did you read it wrong just now?"
"No."
Cheng Luo was very sure and handed over the manuscript.
It did say that Sheng Yi played the second female lead and Jiang Qian was the first female lead. It must have been a mistake made by the staff who prepared the script.
Jiang Qian quickly took the microphone from Cheng Luo's hand and tried to correct him.
"Everyone, just now Cheng Luota..."
Before she could finish her words, she was suddenly frozen in time.
Everyone present was frozen in time.
Qi Nian's hands froze in the air as he was clapping. He had a big smile on his face and looked very happy.
Cheng Luo was a little panicked when the microphone was taken away from him, while everyone in the audience was congratulating him for the new drama that was about to start filming...
Jiang Qian held the microphone and heard her own voice: "I'm wrong, I'm not the female lead. The female lead is Cheng Yi, I..."
She said it several times, but it was of no use. The people in the frozen state obviously couldn't hear her.
She was very uneasy. She grabbed the microphone and shook Qi Nian beside her: "How are you, Qi Nian, wake up..."
"Shengyi, Shengyi, can you hear me?"
Obviously, at this moment, no one could hear what she was doing.
As she was panicking, the phone started to ring loudly.
Her cell phone was not frozen. She held the phone and looked at the familiar number on it.
It was Fu Yuanche's number, and he could actually call in at this time.
Could it be that everyone was frozen and Fu Yuanche was causing trouble?
After answering the phone, she shouted anxiously: "Fu Yuanche, stop joking, let everyone return to normal as soon as possible."
She was very anxious, and Fu Yuanche was also anxious.
He reminded anxiously, "Jiang Qian, I can't restore the current situation. It's you, and only you."
"Me?" She was puzzled. "What do I need to do?"
"Don't explain. Everything will return to normal in ten seconds. Otherwise, everyone will be stuck in a frozen state again. Remember, don't be stupid."
Before she could say anything, the call was hung up.
She held the phone in her hand, in a daze.
It seemed that Fu Yuanche had always wanted her to play the leading female role in this drama.
And she has been resisting.
I thought today’s press conference was a done deal, but who knew something like this would happen.
She held the phone in her hand, standing there in a daze. Soon, everything around her returned to normal.
Cheng Luo's voice became louder: "Everyone, today's press conference has ended successfully. Lunch has been prepared for everyone. Please enjoy your meal."
The lively scene dispersed. Qi Nian looked at Jiang Qian without saying anything. Soon he was dragged away by Cheng Luo.
Shengyi came over and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Mr. Jiang, you don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
So what if I feel uncomfortable? Who is causing trouble?
I know clearly that life here cannot be reckless, but I still feel unwilling to accept it.
Thinking about the picture that just froze, I felt a little uncomfortable.
She answered in a low voice: "I'm fine."
"Then let's have a cup of coffee together." Sheng Yi said with anticipation: "That's right, I have a lot of questions about the role, I want to consult."
It seems that Shengyi is the first curious baby.
And as a partner, there is nothing wrong in offering a helping hand.
In the coffee shop, as soon as Jiang Qian sat down, she glared at Sheng Yi opposite her.
Shengyi received her gaze and felt very uncomfortable and embarrassed.
"Boss Jiang, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with my clothes?"
"That's wrong." Jiang Qian was very sure: "Shengyi, it's not just your clothes that are wrong, your whole being is wrong."
Shengyi was very anxious. He quickly stood up and checked his clothes.
She made sure the clothes were fitted and not torn or blemish-free.
"Hey, Mr. Jiang, what do you mean? It's only the first day of cooperation. I don't want to quarrel with you."
Jiang Qian looked at Sheng Yi and couldn't help but sigh.
There's no point in arguing with the good intentions, as the voice is just a paper man in this book.
Why take it seriously?
But she still wanted to ask despite her doubts.
"Sheng Yi, you signed the contract for the female lead, so why didn't you object when Cheng Luo announced that you were the female second?"
"Your leading lady, this is a huge mistake. How about we reopen the press conference and correct it."
Although there have been a lot of problems before the filming even started, but good things come to those who wait, and as long as there are complaints there will also be popularity, so maybe it’s not too bad.
Jiang Qian thought it was feasible to hold another press conference.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Shengyi looked confused.
"I clearly signed for the second female lead. Even though I'm a little unhappy about being the second female lead, I'm willing to work with Qi Nian again."
