Du Xiaoguang’s name was known to everyone in the show business circle.
He was keen on variety reality shows, and every star reality show he directed became a hit, and this time “Infinite Collapse” was the same.
Although there would always be a lot of embarrassing events and missions in “Infinite Collapse” but it was also popular, which made most stars love and hate it at the same time.
If she could be selected by Du Xiaoguang, it would be very useful for the promotion of “The Emperor’s Path” and for attracting fans. Even if it wasn’t for this, Director Liu had already spoken in person, Si Huang had to give him face, so she had to stay to meet Du Xiaoguang, otherwise it would be too much.
Si Huang explained this matter to Yu Xi, and asked him to pack their luggage first, and that they would drive back if they couldn’t catch up with the scheduled flight time.
Dinner party.
In the resplendent banquet hall, melodious vocal music was being played, and handsome men and women could be seen everywhere.
Si Huang stood in the banquet hall, surrounded by groups of women, and seeing two more female starlets coming from not far away, she turned her eyes and found An Yiyuan who stood alone not far away, and took the initiative to walk towards him.
“Let’s go sit down together.” She pointed to a table with few people.
An Yiyuan was surprised, thinking he had something to do with him, he nodded and agreed.
As a result, after the two sat down, An Yiyuan waited and waited until he had to ask, “Why did you ask to sit with me?”
“Just sit together.” Si Huang said bluntly, “Only with you, a great god, I can stay pure.”
An Yiyuan looked around and found several women who wanted to come over but dared not come, and suddenly understood, “Aren’t you always good at dealing with women?”
He looked as if he had caught Si Huang’s handle.
Si Huang squinted lazily, “What kind of woman do you want to see? I’m not interested in dealing with women who just purely want to try to conquer me.”
An Yiyuan didn’t expect him to speak so directly, and he smiled noncommittally, but didn’t leave. After more than ten minutes, “Are you in a hurry?” He had seen Si Huang check his watch several times.
“Hmm.”
“There aren’t many people to curry favor at this banquet, why don’t you go first?”
Si Huang was about to say something, when he looked up and saw Li Jiang in a suit walking towards him, he knew that the lord he was waiting for had finally arrived.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Jiang came, he said in a low voice, “Director Liu told you to come over.”
“Okay.” Si Huang stood up.
An Yiyuan on the opposite side also stood up, “Director Liu opened a small stove for you again?”
Si Huang thought for a while, but didn’t hide it from him, “This time Du Xiaoguang, Teacher Du will come.”
An Yiyuan’s eyes flashed, “The real man behind variety shows… Brother Si, as a reward for this brother being your shield, let’s go together? Take a gamble and see who will be selected.”
“Even if I don’t agree, you have still made up your mind to follow.”
“Bingo~” Saying this, he snapped his fingers.
Si Huang ignored his flirtatious appearance.
….
Du Xiaoguang was only 39 years old this year, which was considered young among well-known directors. He was obese and had a thick and honest face. Just looking at his appearance, you would never have imagined that he could design so many game tasks that could kill people. He was dressed casually at the moment wearing a black turtleneck sweater, light blue jeans underneath, and black sneakers, he did not match the luxury of the dinner party.
Si Huang could hear what he and Director Liu were talking about from far away. It turned out that the reason why he was so late was that he was stopped by the security outside the door who did not let him in.
Who told him to forget to bring the invitation letter, not to mention that he was dressed so informally, his name was well-known in the circle, but outsiders didn’t know much about his appearance, and all kinds of oolongs added up to cause him to be late.
“Forget it, I don’t even want to talk about you, boy!” Director Liu shouted and turned around to see Si Huang and An Yiyuan. He paused, and didn’t say anything when he saw An Yiyuan. He called the two of them over, and said to Du Xiaoguang: “Needless to say, An Yiyuan, you must know him. This is a newcomer, who played the role of Young Master Qianji in “The Emperor’s Path”, he is called Si Huang.”
Du Xiaoguang narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them.
Director Liu then introduced to the two of them: “This is Du Xiaoguang, the director of the well-known variety shows “Infinite Challenge” and “Infinite Joy”. Currently, “Infinite Collapse” is also directed by him. You can him Teacher Du.”
“Hello, Teacher Du.”
Si Huang and An Yiyuan greeted at the same time.
Du Xiaoguang smiled instantly, “Hello, hello! Kid An is getting more and more handsome, and this one is too. He looks really good! Well, well, please don’t be polite to me.”
Director Liu: “I’ll say it straight, this time “The Emperor’s Path” is going to use “Infinite Collapse” to promote, Xiaoguang will choose two of the protagonists to participate, you should work hard.”
Du Xiaoguang waved his hands again and again, “Why are you being so direct, in fact, I want to borrow the light of this group of young people, to become popular in variety reality shows nowadays, you have to be handsome and beautiful.”
“Mr. Du is flattering us too much.” It was rare that An Yiyuan was serious, but his appearance… still didn’t look like a good face, “Acually, I have always been a loyal fan of Mr. Du’s, starting from the first “Wireless Challenge”…No, maybe I should say Mr. Du’s earlier works, “The Ancient World”, I liked it very much. The exploration of history and geography was very interesting, and I still have collections at home.”
“Really?” Du Xiaoguang’s face was flushed and his eyes sparkled, “Actually, what I liked most at first was to explore the buried treasures in dusty history. Traces of history can lead to a magical story…” He kept talking, An Yiyuan also seemed to listen carefully, while Si Huang standing beside him seemed to be superfluous.
After seeing it, Director Liu sighed inwardly. It seemed that An Yiyuan would take this position, but this was understandable, after all, at Si Huang’s age, it was impossible to understand Du Xiaoguang’s early works.
“Teacher Du.” Si Huang suddenly said.
The smile on Du Xiaoguang’s face disappeared instantly, and he looked at him unhappily.
It was very impolite to interrupt someone in the middle of their conversation, not to mention that Du Xiaoguang was still Si Huang’s senior.
Director Liu and An Yiyuan didn’t expect him to be so bold, but it was too late to stop him.
Si Huang looked at Du Xiaoguang fearlessly, and said sincerely and earnestly, “I am bold, with a complicated background, a lot of hot topics, top-notch looks, I dare to make trouble, can sing and dance, can perform and play, and have good nerves. I am not afraid of challenges or being ashamed, and my self-confidence can make my collapsed self still attract fans, so please choose me.”
Director Liu and An Yiyuan: “…”
Du Xiaoguang was also stunned, as he stared at Si Huang with straight eyes, “How can I believe you?”
“You can see it with your own eyes,” Si Huang said.
“Hahahaha!” Du Xiaoguang’s laughter spread widely, attracting the attention of the group of people around.
Immediately, someone exclaimed about Du Xiaoguang’s identity, and looked at Si Huang full of curiosity and inquiry.
People in this circle had heard that Du Xiaoguang had a good personality and laughed when he met people. It was just that only a few people knew that he had a good temper, but no one could guess his thoughts from his smile. He smiled a lot on weekdays, but he seldom laughed out loud like he was doing now.
This showed that he was really happy, and something had pleased him.
“Hmph, if I didn’t know that Liu Shu doesn’t fully understand my selection criteria, I would have wondered if someone had given you some advice.” Du Xiaoguang restrained his laughter, squinted his eyes and looked at Si Huang, “You kicked the ball back to me, now I have seen your face with my eyes, and I can also see that you are eloquent, what else…”
Si Huang bent down to Du Xiaoguang, “Teacher Du can take it easy. I’m sorry, Teacher Du, Director Liu, I have some urgent business and need to leave the banquet early.”
Director Liu and An Yiyuan were speechless again.
Du Xiaoguang’s eyes widened even more, “Is this how you show boldness?”
“No.” Si Huang raised her head, “I know it’s rude, but I have to do this.”
“Is it still more important than Infinite Collapse?”
“The importance of the two things is incomparable.” Si Huang’s eyes were quiet, “I only know that I have taken both things seriously and fought for them, so I should have a clear conscience no matter what.”
Du Xiaoguang stopped talking.
Si Huang bowed to him and Director Liu again, then turned around and left quickly.
It wasn’t until her figure disappeared from the gate of the banquet that Du Xiaoguang said: “Young people are young people, hello!” He turned to look at Liu Shu, “Do you know where he is going so late? What is more important than being selected for my show? What is so important? Could it be to meet someone?”
He knew the chaos in this circle, it was always out of sight, but if the other party ignored him in order to meet the benefactor behind him, even talking in such a magnificent manner would still make him very disgusted.
“How would I know…huh?” Liu Shu was halfway through his words when he suddenly remembered something. Then his expression changed continuously, and he sighed with a smile, “If I’m not wrong, he is going back to City H overnight to attend the Huaxing Art School’s New Year’s Eve party… I thought he would have decided not to go. I didn’t expect that.”
Du Xiaoguang: “What? How much is the reward for the campus New Year’s party? Is there his little girlfriend in it?”
Liu Shu said, “After staying in this circle for a long time, your ideas are becoming more and more interesting. Si Huang participated voluntarily for free, no, I have to send a message to Yanyan, I told her an hour ago that Si Huang would definitely not go back and told her not to expect him!”
While talking, he walked out quickly.
Du Xiaoguang and An Yiyuan were left to digest what he said.
What Si Huang took so seriously was a campus New Year’s Eve party?
“What a young man.” Du Xiaoguang sighed again.
An Yiyuan nodded in agreement with a complicated expression.
Today, he had long lost this innocence, and he would definitely not waste time and effort doing things that were not beneficial to him.
