Huayu: You were supposed to be a top star, but you've become capital?

Chapter 101 The boss probably forgot about this girl.

Chen Zhixi picked up a document from the side, opened it and looked at it: "I've already communicated with Juku and Liu Junjie about your audition for Zhao Mosheng. Gu Man is also here, and they will accommodate your schedule. As long as you perform normally and don't mess it up, this role is yours."

Bai Mengyan felt a weight lifted from her heart and nodded vigorously, "Thank you, Sister Xi."

"Don't thank me, you can thank Lin Shen or yourself." Chen Zhixi waved his hand. "The operation of this role has little to do with me, but whether it will come to fruition in the end depends on your performance on set."

She paused for a moment, then said, "I'll have someone send you the detailed schedule for the audition later, so you can prepare in advance."

Bai Mengyan nodded again.

Chen Zhixi continued, "Before I help you find a suitable agent, I'll keep an eye on the coordination with the 'My Sunshine' production team for you. You don't need to worry about contract terms, scheduling, or product placement."

Bai Mengyan blinked: "Sister Xi, you still care about this?"

"We have to keep an eye on things, whether we want to or not," Chen Zhixi laughed. "You don't have an agent right now, and Lin Shen is stuck in Changbai Mountain and can't come back. If I don't keep an eye on things, who will?"

Bai Mengyan pursed her lips and didn't say anything, but her heart warmed a little.

Chen Zhixi then remembered something: "By the way, regarding the follow-up matters of 'The Grave Robbers' Chronicles,' you should still liaise with Lekai as usual. They have your contract and your compensation; all the necessary procedures should be completed."

"Once all your work here is handed over to Forest, including your training fees at Lucky Film, I will arrange for them to be transferred as well. That way, Lin Shen won't be in an awkward position."

Bai Mengyan paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

Chen Zhixi smiled and leaned back: "Okay, that's all then. You can take a look around the company and familiarize yourself with the environment. I'll have someone take you to your lounge."

Bai Mengyan quickly stood up: "Sister Xi, you're busy, I can go by myself."

Chen Zhixi smiled and shook his head: "The company is quite large, so it's better to have someone show you around."

She reached out and pressed a button on the table.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

The door opened, and a short-haired, round-faced girl poked her head in. She looked to be in her early twenties, with round eyes and a slightly timid expression.

"Hello, Mr. Chen."

Chen Zhixi waved to her: "Xiao He, come in."

The girl then pushed open the door and came in, standing properly to the side.

Chen Zhixi pointed at Bai Mengyan: "This is Bai Lu, an artist from our company. You can show her around the company later."

Then he explained to Bai Mengyan, "This girl's boss probably forgot about her, so I asked her to help out at the company."

The girl named Xiao He quickly nodded and smiled at Bai Mengyan: "Hello, Teacher Bai."

Bai Mengyan stood up and nodded to Chen Zhixi: "Then, Sister Xi, I'll go first."

"Go."

Bai Mengyan followed Xiao He out of the office, the door closing behind them.

The corridor quieted down. Xiao He walked ahead, her steps a little fast, while Bai Mengyan followed behind. Looking at her nervous appearance, she suddenly felt like laughing.

This girl seems even more nervous than I am.

"Um—" Bai Mengyan began, "What should I call you?"

Xiao He quickly turned around and said a little embarrassedly, "My name is He Handan, Teacher Bai can just call me Xiao He."

"Don't call me Teacher Bai anymore, it sounds weird." Bai Mengyan smiled. "Just call me Sister Lu."

He Handan nodded, still looking a little nervous.

Looking at her like that, Bai Mengyan suddenly remembered the first time she visited Lucky Derby.

She was like that back then, following behind Sister Li Rong, not daring to breathe loudly.

Thinking about it that way, she actually felt more relaxed.

"What do you do?" Bai Mengyan asked casually.

"I—" He Handan said a little embarrassedly, "I am Director Yuan's assistant."

"Director Yuan?"

"Yuan Shuang is the director of Cat's Tree." He Handan quickly explained, "He just joined the company, and I came with him. When he's not around, I—I help out at the company."

""

Bai Mengyan paused for a moment, then smiled.

She had heard Lin Shen mention the name "Cat's Tree" before.

"So you're pretty free?" Bai Mengyan joked.

He Handan smiled a little embarrassedly: "Yes, a little, but President Chen said it's good this way, so I can get more familiar with the company and react quickly if Director Yuan needs anything in the future."

Bai Mengyan nodded, feeling a bit more favorably disposed towards the round-faced girl.

As they spoke, the two walked into the office area.

As He Handan walked, she quietly explained, "This is the office area; the planning department and publicity department are located here. That's the meeting room, and further in are the editing room and the screening room—"

Bai Mengyan followed her around and found that the company was indeed larger than she had imagined.

Although there weren't many people, everyone in every area was busy, and this orderly pace made her feel quite at ease.

Bai Mengyan's gaze involuntarily swept over those workstations.

The young man with glasses was still lost in thought, his screen filled with dense documents. The boy next to him, whose desk was piled high with notebooks, was no longer there; no one knew where he had gone.

He Handan noticed her gaze and whispered, "That's Shen Ao, Director Shen, who is also a newly signed director in our company."

""

Bai Mengyan was taken aback: "Director?"

"Hmm." He Handan nodded. "Director Shen makes movies. He said he wants to find his own material, and he's been working on scripts in his office every day."

Bai Mengyan glanced in that direction and couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

So young, and already a director?

He Handan then pointed in another direction: "That workstation over there is my boss's. He used to film web dramas."

Mr. Chen said he would be in charge of directing all the idol dramas in our company from now on, so he's been staying home every day reading scripts and hasn't been coming to the company much lately.

Bai Mengyan blinked: "Reading the script?"

"Yes, he's looking for suitable scripts," He Handan said. "President Chen asked him to liaise with Tencent to see if there are any good novels that can be adapted. He's probably at home reading a novel right now."

.

Bai Mengyan nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

He Handan led her onward, through a corridor, and pushed open a door.

"This is the rest area. There's a tea room, snacks, and all sorts of things here. Sister Lu, just help yourself to whatever you want to drink in the future."

Bai Mengyan looked around; the place wasn't big, but it was quite clean.

He Handan then took her to see her dressing room, a well-lit room with complete furniture.

"Sister Lu, what do you think?"

Bai Mengyan nodded: "That's good."

He Handan smiled, her eyes crinkling: "That's good. Please call me anytime if you need anything. I'm usually in the front office area."

Bai Mengyan looked at her serious yet slightly nervous expression and suddenly found it a bit amusing.

"Okay, thank you."

He Handan quickly waved her hand: "You're welcome, you're welcome!"

She stood at the doorway, glanced at Bai Mengyan again, hesitated for a moment, and asked softly, "Sister Lu, can I ask you something?"

Bai Mengyan looked at her.

He Handan blinked, a little embarrassed, "Have you met President Lin before?"

Bai Mengyan was stunned for a moment.

He Handan quickly explained, "I... I was just curious. Mr. Lin is our company's boss, you know. I've never met him before, so—"

Bai Mengyan smiled when she saw her cautious demeanor.

"I've seen it."

He Handan's eyes lit up: "Really? Is he handsome in person?"

Bai Mengyan thought for a moment and said seriously, "It's alright."

He Handan blinked, somewhat disbelieving, but didn't dare ask any more questions.

She pursed her lips and whispered, "Then—then we should be able to see each other again, right?"

Bai Mengyan smiled and said, "Yes, you can."

He Handan was delighted and nodded vigorously: "Then, Sister Lu, you should rest first. I'll go out now!"
