Shen Xi smiled. “Hello.”
At the end of the day, Mr. He was green and needed to get out there more. At least then, he would not have worn his heart on his sleeve.
The other girls quickly swarmed in to greet and introduce themselves before excitedly following He Xiang to the set.
Many of them, including Shen Xi and Yun Jinping, had never visited a filming set before. Since everyone had time during summer and they happened to be in the capital, the girls signed up to come along when Yun Jinping proposed this in the group chat.
As they walked, He Xiang was having mixed feelings about walking beside Shen Xi and Yun Jinping like an errand boy, and nothing like the big-shot manager that he was. It was not because he was not able to get it together, rather Lil’ Chairman Shen was carrying herself with much authority. Ask any one of the company’s executives including Chairman Yuan, and they would admit to trembling in her presence.
Lil’ Chairman Shen may be young, but she was highly capable and commanded the room. She did not have much to say during meetings but every time she opened her mouth, it was spot on and straight to the heart of the matter. She was out to prove that age was only a number when it came to the crunch.
Truth be told, no one in the office thought any lesser of Lil’ Chairman Shen because of her age. Everyone respected and admired her as though she was born to rule over them.
The production team welcomed the visiting fans brought by He Xiang. After all, not even the tabloids dropped by the set since the start of their shoot.
With the fans around, they should get some organic publicity and get the ball rolling. However, it never occurred to them that He Xiang only brought less than a dozen over. People would think he brought his assistants along. The major stars aside, even D-ranked celebrities would have bigger personnel with their assistants and bodyguards combined.
Among the fans, two ladies drew attention. One was a charming middle-aged woman while the other was a breathtakingly beautiful girl. They could not take their eyes away from them.
“Yuanxi is filming his scene. Wait here for a bit.” He Xiang was looking at Shen Xi while talking.
“Sure.” Since Yun Jinping was the oldest and the organizer of the trip, the other girls called her Madam. She oversaw the outing.
She was not here to disrupt Lil’ Yu’s work.
“I’m heading there to take a look.” As a qualified manager, He Xiang had plans of his own.
He was going to inform Yu Yuanxi that Lil’ Chairman Shen was here so he could get ready in advance. He did not want Yu Yuanxi to be thrown in a fluster and leave a bad impression then.
As He Xiang was about to take off, Yun Jinping stopped him and whispered, “Mr. He, can we buy the production team a drink?”
She had asked fans of other celebrities and checked on the dos and don’ts when swinging by the set prior to her arrival. Certain production teams allowed access, filming, and treats, while other sets had strict rules about buying drinks, let alone taking pictures. Fans were lucky enough to be able to meet with their idol.
“Yes.” He Xiang nodded with a smile. With Yun Jinping whipping out pen and paper, He Xiang got the cue and clapped his hands for everyone’s attention. “Yuanxi’s fans wish to buy bubble tea for everyone. Please come and let us know your preference.”
Staff members, extras, actors, and actors’ assistants rushed to the scene to sign up after hearing that Yu Yuanxi’s fans were treating them to bubble tea. Who was going to say no to free drinks?
The registration of names and preferences was soon over. The list totaled more than a hundred. Yun Jinping tallied up the numbers with staff on set before leading a few girls to handle the task.
Shen Xi was not part of the buying ensemble. She found a quiet spot on set and sat down to play a mobile game. Before she could even finish one round, she heard a rude, cocky, and commanding female voice coming from behind her shouting, “Hey, you! Sit somewhere else!”
