After the press conference was over. Ning Qing walked into her personal office, and she gave Xiao Zhou a mission. “Xiao Zhou, continue to post promotional pictures of the studio in the afternoon, and also use our artists’ Baidu hashtags below the pictures. It will be more convenient for everyone to be familiar with them.”

“Okay.” Xiao Zhou nodded her head and asked, “Ning Qing, when will we officially start filming?”

Ning Qing looked at the documents in her hands and said, “In two days. I will soon contact Luoxi and Xiaofu. They both have new dramas on their hands. I have already persuaded them to allow our artists to have mini cameos in their shows. Furthermore, I have also tagged Fan Chengsi on Weibo. He has Fashion Week coming up, and I have recommended Liu Wenlong to go over as the singer. After they have presented themselves to the public and made the audiences familiar with them, they will have some popularity. We will strike while the iron is hot. We will start filming in Hengdian, and this matter will be guaranteed half its success already.”

Xiao Zhou was in full admiration for Ning Qing. Ning Qing had many good connections in the entertainment industry, and this time, she used her connections to bring along the artists under her management to let the audience to get familiar with their faces. It was a good marketing method in the modern entertainment industry.”

Ning Qing alone can push the popularity of the entire team.

Doing this would make the movie popular before its premiere.

“A few days ago, Liu Wenlong recorded a folk song. How was the reaction to it online?”

When she mentioned this, Xiao Zhou was excited as she said, “Ning Qing, you really have such an eye for talent. Liu Wenlong’s folk song made it to the top of the popular music charts the moment it debuted online. Liu Wenlong’s popularity now cannot be compared to before. We just announced that we will be using him for the soundtrack of a serial drama today, and his popularity is going to shoot up greatly.”

“Great.” Ning Qing nodded her head and said, “Then you prepare whatever is necessary, and we will leave for Hengdian in two days.”

“Okay.” Xiao Zhou walked out of the office.

…

Xiao Zhou walked out, and Ning Qing took out her phone to send a text message to Lu Shaoming. [Shao Ming, I have received your flowers. I like them very much.]

[Okay.] The man replied quickly and was also very direct.

Ning Qing bit her pink lips, and even her fingers were shaking because of the sweetness. [The journalist asked me what you meant by sending me flowers.]

[Didn’t you already give an answer?]

What, her press conference had just ended, and he already knew how she had responded?

He was silently keeping tabs on her!

And she caught him doing so again.

Hehe.

Moreover, was he admitting to it now?

A smile quickly formed on Ning Qing’s face. He sent flowers today, and he wanted to use this opportunity to announce the entire city that they were dating. This was the sincerity of a man who has deep feelings for his woman.

Ning Qing was very touched.

[Shaoming, I am going to film a drama in Hengdian the day after tomorrow.]

[How long are you going to be gone?]

[Well, a director needs to be on set for probably a few months, I think.]

She sent this text message, and the man gave no reply from then on.

Ning Qing had a frown on her face. Was he angry again?

[Shaoming, what is wrong? Are you ignoring me now?]

The man did not reply.

Ning Qing had a bright glow in her eyes. [ Okay then, since Shao Ming hates me so much, then I have decided to leave for Hengdian today.]

This time, the man’s reply was very quick, it was merely two words, [You Dare!]

Ning Qing put her phone down and lazily lay back in her leather chair. She turned around, and she looked towards the large French windows. At that moment, the rays of the sunshine shone brightly through the windows and made her body warm. She closed her eyes slowly, and curled the corners of her lips into a smile. She has finally taken a large step forward to achieve her dreams.

Ning Qing sent another text message again, [Shao,ing, do you know how to use WeChat? It is so interesting to use. After I go to Hengdian, we can use WeChat to contact one another.]

[…Sure.]

…

Ning Qing brought the drama production group along to board the flight to Hengdian to film. This was an adaptation of a famous web novel. There were many fans of the novel who were anticipating its production, and it already had quite a bit of recognition.

The male lead was a popular young male star Wu Xian, and the female lead was voted as the Best Female Lead in a vote held online among web novel fans, Yin Moer. The two of them were great actors, and they had good chemistry between them, so the filming went on very smoothly.

Additionally, Ning Qing used her connections in the entertainment industry for their help. She always took the spot as “most discussed female artist,” and because of this, City of Love was highly anticipated by every person in the country.

After filming for an entire day, it was 6pm in the afternoon, and Ning Qing shouted ,”Cut!”, and she ended the daylight portion for today.

Xiao Zhou went to arrange dinner, and Ning Qing focused on the script in her hands. At this moment, Liu Wenlong’s girlfriend, Li Yi, walked over in her direction. She looked shy, and even her voice was soft and tender, like a black-naped oriole. “Director Ning.”

“Hmm, Xiao Yi, what’s up?” Ning Qing liked this girl very much, so she followed Liu Wenlong and addressed her with her nickname.

Li Yi took a doll from behind her back, and she pursed her lips as she smiled, “Director Ning, this is for you.”

Ning Qing took it in her hands. This was a tiny colourful handmade bamboo doll, it was very exquisite and interesting. She had never seen a doll like this in the stores before.

Ning Qing looked at the doll thoroughly as she said, “Li Yi, did you make this yourself?”

“Yeah.” Li Yi nodded her head. She smiled elegantly and gracefully. She probably did not speak loudly in her everyday life. On top of her timid voice, even when she looked at others, she was flustered, nervous, and very inexperienced. “I don’t have much to do normally, and I like to make dolls. Director Ning, do you like it?”

She looked at Ning Qing with anticipation.

“I like it very much.” Ning Qing took her phone out and said, “I am actually in need of an accessory for my phone, this doll is so suitable. Thank you, Xiao Yi.”

Li Yi saw that she sincerely liked it and also broke out into a sweet smile. “All is well as long as Director Ning likes it.”

Ning Qing hooked the doll on her phone and her eyes lit up. She acted casually as she asked Li Yi, “Xiao Yi, I heard that you gave up your education because of Liu Wenlong. Now that Liu Wenlong is starting to slowly build a career of his own, do you still want to follow behind him?”

Li Yi interlocked her hands together as she played with them, and she quickly became nervous. Her small face was slightly red as she said “I’ve followed Older Brother Ah Long since I was 16 years old. I don’t know what else I can do.”

Ning Qing sighed in her heart. She waved the doll on her phone and said with a smile, “Xiao Yi, who said that you didn’t know how to do anything? You know how to make dolls. Since this is your original creation, you should treat it as a career. You make dolls, and I will advertise them in the movie, and after the movie premieres your dolls will definitely become popular. At that time, I will apply for a copyright for you, and then we will open a shop.”

Both of Li Yi’s eyes lit up brightly as she said, “I… I can do that?”

Ning Qing held her small hand and said, “Believe me, believe in yourself. We definitely can achieve it. Come, give your doll a name first.”

Something like Hello Kitty.

Li Yi shook her head shyly and said, “I don’t know how to name it.”

“Okay then. I will help you do so, let’s call it… Big Cloth Doll.”

Li Yi nodded her head firmly and said, “Okay.”

Both of their gazes met one another, and at this moment, Ning Qing still not know yet, but she had a feeling that this big cloth doll would be the most classic and popular cloth art in America and Europe. And the girl from the mountains standing beside her right now, Li Yi, she would turn into a renowned artist in the future; he would be a master in her craft.

What was the point in only focusing on your own achievements? When you assist others as they achieve their dreams, only then will your actions be legendary.

At this moment, Liu Wenlong walked over and he had a bento box in his hands. “Xiao Yi, you are here again? Don’t come here in the future. I am working here. You will become a distraction if you come too often.”

As he spoke, Liu Wenlong touched his own head daringly and said to Ning Qing, “Director Ning, can I give my meal to Xiao Yi. She must have not had her meal yet, and the two of us can share a portion.”

Ning Qing quickly curled up the corners of her lips and teased him saying, “Liu Wenlong, are you saying that I am stingy as a boss in front of Li Yi? Even if Li Yi comes everyday, our production group would be able to give her a meal.”

“Hehe.” The face of the masculine man of Dongbei was a little red as he said, “You cannot word it like this. Xiao Yi is not your employee; she cannot eat for free.”

“From today onwards, Xiao Yi is not eating for free. Look, I am preparing to invest in this big cloth doll.”

Liu Wenlong had a look, and with a displeased tone, he said to Li Yi, “Xiao Yi, how come you are taking this thing out again? I told you that the people in the city do not like these things. Director Ning is rich; she does not have any interest in these things.”

“Ay, Liu Wenlong, watch how you speak. Those people who have no interest in Li Yi’s dolls have no taste, but I know a good thing when I see it.”

Liu Wenlong was at a loss for words upon hearing Ning Qing. Li Yi had a more gentle gaze as she looked towards Ning Qing. In her heart, other than Liu Wenlong, Ning Qing was the best person that she has ever met in her life.

“Okay then. Director Ning, I will bring Xiao Yi to have a meal then.”

“Sure.”

The two of them left, and Xiao Zhou stood beside Ning Qing and said, “Ning Qing, they have such a good relationship. I saw Liu Wenlong have a few bites of that bento, he left ribs and an egg for Xiao Yi to eat, and he did not bear to eat it himself.”

Ning Qing gazed in their direction, and Li Yi was sitting on a small stool. She took the bento box in her hands as she ate, and Liu Wenlong squatted down in front of Li Yi. He looked at Li Yi with ultimate gentleness in his eyes, and Li Yi took a piece of ribs in front of Liu Wenlong for him to eat. His expression was cold as he was unwilling to eat, Xiao Yi had two small bites, and gave it to him again.

“Yeah.” Ning Qing nodded her head and continued, “If they could continue being like this forever, that would be great.”

“Ning Qing, what do you mean by that? You do not think they will last?” Xiao Zhou asked.

Ning Qing lowered her gaze down to organize her documents, and she did not speak.

At this moment, “Older Brother Ah Long.” A coy female voice rang out in the air, and Liu Ling who had come to Ning Qing’s studio for an interview had arrived.

Xiao Zhou was taken aback. “How come this Liu Ling is here again? Ning Qing, you chased her away the other day, and she is still haunting us like a ghost.”

Ning Qing lifted her gaze to have a look, and she saw Liu Ling holding a thermos in her hands. She walked to face Liu Wenlong. She saw Li Yi having her meal and quickly said, “Li Yi, Older Brother Ah Long has been working tediously for the entire day. How can you eat his food? Don’t you know that the women who come from the mountains cannot eat at the dinner table? You have to wait ’til the men finish the food; only then can the women start eating.”

Li Yi’s small face blushed red, and she was at a loss for what to do next.

Liu Wenlong looked at Liu Ling and said, “It’s nothing, I’m the one who asked Xiao Yi to eat…”

“Older Brother Ah Long, you cannot spoil her like this. Come, this is the soup that I made for you. Have a taste.” Liu Ling opened the thermos up and handed it over to Liu Wenlong.

Liu Wenlong quickly ducked away from her and rejected her saying, “There is no need for that.”

Ning Qing continued to flip through the documents in her hands, and she did not lift her head. She only raised her voice to say,” Xiao Zhou, ask security to chase Miss Liu away.”

“Okay, Security!” Xiao Zhou called out loudly.

Liu Ling quickly looked over in Ning Qing’s directions and she stomped her feet saying, “Director Ning, I did not come over this time to interview for a position. Can’t I come over to see Older Brother Ah Long?”

Ning Qing laughed coldly as she said, “Miss Liu, could you actually not know that the women from the mountains can’t show themselves to outsiders whenever they wish to? I am teaching you the rules!”

Liu Ling: “…”
