Huayu: Live a carefree life

Because of this unexpected situation, Lu Jie postponed his plan to go to the Leapmotor factory and spent an extra night with Chen Yao in Hengdian.

The next day, he left Hengdian and went directly to Lin'an, with the purpose of reducing his Alibaba shares for the third time through internal channels.

This is Lu Jie's last Alibaba share, and the fact that it was sold in multiple installments was to avoid affecting the stock price, which can be seen as a gesture of goodwill towards his old friend Ma from Lin'an.

Of course, Lin'an Ma wouldn't be happy about this, but Lu Jie didn't care.

He disliked Alibaba's way of doing things from the very beginning, and his initial attempt to swap shares was simply to maximize his own interests.

Even though there will be a price discount for those exiting internally, it's still a positive return; the only question is how much profit they'll make.

After leaving Lin'an, I visited the Leapmotor factory and admired the hardcore beauty of modern mechanical industry.

After returning to Beijing, I didn't go on any more business trips. I spent my days handling various tasks, playing games in my spare time, and exchanging WeChat messages with Meng Ziyi or Tian Xiwei.

Xiao Tian is quite interesting. She often sends voice messages in the Chongqing dialect, and after they get to know each other well, she directly calls Lu Jie a "scumbag".

As for why Xiaotian calls Lu Jie a scumbag, is that even a question?

The day before, he confidently told her that his girlfriend was her junior at the Shanghai Theatre Academy, and then he took the initiative to send her messages to flirt with her. How could he not be a jerk?

Lu Jie's evenings were also quite pleasant. He would go on dates with Hu Lianxin or Liu Haocun, video chat with Chen Yao after her performance, and then check on the ore mined by the ship.

During this time, Liu Haocun was also "beaten" by her.

It was the first weekend back in Beijing. Lu Jie spent some time alone with Liu Haocun. During dinner, he received a call from Lin Zixian, who overheard the progress of the "Someday or One Day" project.

When Xiao Cun learned that Lu Jie had already decided to cast Hu Lianxin as the female lead in his new drama, she immediately became extremely jealous and started speaking in a sarcastic tone.

In this situation, Lu Jie's response was to execute her on the spot until she begged for mercy.

This time was the same. I suppressed her sternly until she cried and shivered, then I carried her to wash up and go to bed. Everything was normal.

The next morning, Lu Jie woke up to find his eyes covered and his hands and feet bound.

Because I had just woken up and my brain hadn't been working properly yet, my first reaction was to struggle violently.

Unexpectedly, Liu Hao was playing a "punishment" game with him, and he wasn't actually tied up very tightly.

Lu Jie kicked hard, snapping the rope and kicking Xiao Cun off the bed, hitting her head. Xiao Cun cried loudly in distress.

Although there were various reasons, my girlfriend cried after all, so I had to comfort her...

But Liu Haocun is the kind of girl who can always find a reason to justify herself, even when she's in the right. And when she is in the right, she's even more unforgiving.

Lu Jie tried to coax her for a while, but when she still wouldn't give in, he stopped indulging her and directly used the props she had prepared to tie her up.

Then there are the scenes that can't be broadcast. After all, there's nothing between boyfriends and girlfriends that can't be solved by talking about it once. If there is, then talk about it a few more times.

In the end, Lu Jie stabbed her four times...

Hu Lianxin's role as the female lead is naturally Huang Yuxuan and Chen Yunru in "Someday or One Day". Playing two roles is definitely a challenge for her, a freshman.

However, although "Someday or One Day" is a romantic suspense fantasy drama, it is still a modern idol drama, so the requirements for acting skills are not that demanding.

Moreover, Xiao Hu has a good acting talent and a very serious attitude. He rarely made mistakes in the "Spirit Sword Mountain" crew, for which he was praised by the director a lot.

She put a lot of effort into studying the complete script this time, writing nearly two thousand words just for the character biographies, and even asking her homeroom teacher at school for help with anything she didn't understand.

Lu Jie also hired a professional acting coach for her, giving her a short lesson every other day to help her improve her acting skills.

…………

Both screenwriters of "Someday or One Day" are from the Bay Area, and the script is set in a high school campus in the Bay Area.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Lam Tsz-yin and Ho Ka-hei ultimately chose to film in Xiamen, Fujian, and set December 1st as the start date for filming.

When it came to choosing the male lead, Lu Jie promised to do Han Zijie a favor, but somehow he and President Juan ended up recommending a rat spirit instead.

Liu Haozi, as his name suggests, looks like a mouse!

So after consulting with Lu Jie, Lin Zixian gave the male lead to Zhang Xincheng, who was recommended by Kiwi.

This one looks much better, and he already has two hit dramas, "Hello, Old Times" and "Young Blood," and he's also Hu Ge's senior from the Central Academy of Drama.

As compensation, the role of the second male villain was given to Ye Zuxin, an actor recommended by Tencent.

Several newcomers auditioned for the third male lead role, and the role was ultimately given to Fu Weilun, a junior at the Beijing Film Academy, who was a very good-looking guy.

The other female characters in this drama are basically just plot devices, but the female lead's boss, Sister Na, is a different story.

Lin Zixian took care of his girlfriend, who was in the entertainment industry and whom he had just started dating. Her surname was Cheng, and her stage name was Long Ni. She was beautiful and had a great figure.

Another major supporting character, teacher Sunny, was brought in by screenwriter Lin Xinhui, who managed to persuade her fellow Taiwanese, Liu Xinyou, a lesbian heartthrob, to make a cameo appearance.

As for the remaining minor supporting characters, such as the female lead's classmates and colleagues, Lu Jie discussed it with Lin Zixian and asked him to contact Hu Lianxin's homeroom teacher so that her students could take care of them.

It's okay if they don't approve the leave. We can wait until winter break to come to the film set to film together. After filming, everyone can go home for the New Year with their paychecks. Wouldn't that be great?

As expected, Lin Zixian only mentioned it briefly and the other party readily agreed.

This is also good for Xiao Hu, since she is really too outstanding. After the last trending topic blunder, all her classmates know that her boyfriend is very capable.

While we're still laying the foundation in school, she's already finished filming her first drama.

She just returned to school for a month and is about to play the female lead in a Tencent-made idol drama. How come all the good things happen to her?

Let alone art schools, even in ordinary colleges, students with outstanding abilities will be envied.

Hu Lianxin now goes home to stay every day for this reason. She feels that she has been ostracized in the dormitory, even though her roommates are still polite to her on the surface.

But one time she overheard her roommate gossiping about her outside the door, saying that she used her looks to seduce men and that she might be one of those "skinny horses".

Xiao Hu even cried in Lu Jie's arms because of this. Lu Jie could only comfort her, saying that it's common for girls to gossip about each other, after all, it's considered basic for four girls in a dormitory to form three groups.

Of course, Lu Jie is not a magnanimous person, as seen in his role in "Someday or One Day".

He gave Lin Zixian clear instructions: none of Xiao Hu's three roommates should be used!

…………

November 24, Saturday, Tencent Pictures Building, Beijing.

Tonight at 8 PM, the short drama version of "Someday or One Day" will be launched on Weishi. Lu Jie, as the president of Weishi and the initiator of the project, is working overtime on the weekend, which is quite rare for him.

After his reforms, the optimized Weishi team became much more efficient than before, and none of those lazy, complacent old hands were left behind.

The current employees are either ambitious or new recruits, and they are incredibly disciplined and obedient when it comes to their work.

Lu Jie was here in the afternoon for a pre-release live stream promotion for the short drama; he mainly came to see the beautiful women…

For example, he had only seen photos of the female lead, Juliet, in the short drama version before, but this time he finally met her in person.

However, at first glance, it seemed like her claim of being 163cm tall was an exaggeration...

Because she was wearing 8cm stilettos today, when she stood next to Lu Jie, she didn't look as good as Xiao Hu when she usually wore flat shoes.

Lu Jie is a very superficial person. He doesn't care much about a girl's height. He judges people by their faces first and believes that looks are everything.

Juliet's face shape and features are excellent, but unfortunately, she lacks any distinctive features or memorable characteristics. She is simply pretty but not stunningly beautiful, making it very difficult for her to stand out in the entertainment industry where beauties abound.

Her voice is very pleasant, soft and soothing, and her smile, with its bright eyes and white teeth, is also very beautiful.

Most importantly, she was incredibly bold; she even dared to scratch Lu Jie's palm while shaking his hand, actively trying to seduce him. That's...

Unfortunately, the beauty Lu Jie wanted to see today wasn't Zhu Lilan, but rather the host of today's live broadcast, Ma Fanshu from CCTV Sports Channel.
