Chapter 0634: Borrowing Power from the Strong

As it turned out, sometimes people really shouldn't overthink things.

When Fan Baobao got up the next morning and saw Zhao Fusheng sleeping on the sofa, she wasn't as surprised as he had hoped. She just asked him curiously why he chose to sleep in the living room instead of the bed.

Zhao Fusheng had nothing to say about that. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had really been naive, actually thinking that the word 'tenderness' could be associated with his girlfriend. That was way too optimistic.

"By the way, I'm going to see Sister Hua today. Are you coming?" Fan Baobao asked Zhao Fusheng while making breakfast.

Zhao Fusheng was startled for a moment, then remembered that Fan Baobao had told him yesterday that she was meeting Wang Jinghua today, partly about the movie and partly about the advertisement.

After thinking it over, Zhao Fusheng shook his head: "I won't go. It's not like I have anything to do with it."

"Do you have other plans?" Fan Baobao stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Zhao Fusheng.

Zhao Fusheng shook his head blankly: "No."

"Then come along. You can be my sounding board," Fan Baobao said.

In fact, she didn't trust Wang Jinghua completely. In Fan Baobao's mind, her relationship with Wang Jinghua was more like an equal exchange. The other party valued her potential, which could bring benefits to her career as an agent, so she chose to be her agent.

What she valued was the other party's resources, so she agreed.

Of course, she didn't know what role Zhao Fusheng had played in it, but Fan Baobao instinctively felt that Wang Jinghua wasn't worth her complete trust.

This wasn't something Zhao Fusheng had taught her; she had figured it out on her own.

Hearing her words, Zhao Fusheng blinked first to confirm he hadn't misheard, then looked up at Fan Baobao: "You mean you want me to come along?"

"Mm!" Fan Baobao nodded emphatically.

Human emotions are sometimes very complicated. Zhao Fusheng always hoped to simplify them, but as it turned out, that was just a beautiful fantasy of his.

Everyone has a dark side. Simply put, even the heroes in history books have unknown aspects, let alone the ordinary people alive today.

He had originally thought Wang Jinghua was a good person, but upon reflection, Zhao Fusheng had to admit that he was still too naive.

The problems Fan Baobao had encountered while being an extra, according to Wang Jinghua, were caused by her previous company. But now that he thought about it, Wang Jinghua might have had a hand in stirring things up.

Not to mention that later Wang Jinghua repeatedly jumped ship and started her own business. In short, she was also an ambitious woman.

With that thought, Zhao Fusheng glanced at Fan Baobao and nodded: "Alright, I'll go with you."

A smile appeared on Fan Baobao's face, clearly very happy. After all, she already regarded Zhao Fusheng as the man she would marry. For any girl, having a loved one accompany her makes her feel at ease wherever she goes.

Where my heart is at peace is my hometown—that's how Fan Baobao understood it.

Leaving Wang Qiang to watch TV at home, Zhao Fusheng and Fan Baobao took a taxi straight to Huayi Headquarters.

That's right, by now Wang Jinghua was already the vice president of Huayi Entertainment Company. Seeing her was no easy task.

People are probably like this: when they are insignificant, they can always stay true to themselves, but once they achieve success, they become hard to approach.

At least, that's what Zhao Fusheng saw from Wang Jinghua's current situation.

This woman was no longer as amiable as before. Zhao Fusheng could even clearly sense that she was becoming impatient while listening to Fan Baobao.

After all, what Fan Baobao was talking about, to some extent, meant nothing to Wang Jinghua.

"You found a role for yourself?" Wang Jinghua gave Fan Baobao a deep look, then glanced at Zhao Fusheng sitting beside her.

Woman's intuition told Wang Jinghua that this matter, ten to one, had something to do with the man in front of her.

Fan Baobao didn't beat around the bush and honestly admitted: "My boyfriend is the screenwriter of that movie."

Originally, she thought pulling strings was shameful, but now she felt it wasn't a big deal. Sometimes, being born into a good family is also part of life.

Many people don't understand this truth. We often compare the college entrance exam to the second watershed in life. Some people think going to college and taking the exam is meaningless because the experiences of many successful people have proven that they achieved success after dropping out. The most famous is probably Bill Gates, who dropped out of Harvard. The world's richest man left university shortly after studying at Harvard, and then he succeeded...

But don't forget, his mother was a board member of IBM.

Although we are reluctant to admit it, the fact is that the college entrance exam is the only chance for young people from poor backgrounds to change their own and their family's fate. A person's school largely determines their future level.

Of course, if you have rich parents and a family that can easily find you a good job, then the college entrance exam is indeed meaningless.

Those so-called experts who constantly advocate for quality education and criticize the unfairness of exam-oriented education are mostly wealthy people who don't have to worry about food and clothing.

In short, their children don't need to change their fate to live well.

So, being born into a good family is really useful. At the very least, you don't have to work hard and struggle.

"Since that's the case, go ahead." Wang Jinghua didn't waste words and nodded in agreement.

For her now, Fan Baobao was just one of the more promising artists under her. If Zhao Fusheng weren't behind her, Wang Jinghua might not have even agreed to see Fan Baobao today.

After all, a newcomer who hasn't even graduated from college and has only shot a few commercials has that kind of status.

"Um, if I join the crew, then I can't shoot the commercial," Fan Baobao hesitated and said to Wang Jinghua.

Wang Jinghua was startled, then glanced at Zhao Fusheng sitting there drinking tea. She actually wanted to tell Fan Baobao that a minor supporting role like hers wouldn't have many scenes and wouldn't affect the commercial shoot, but saying that in front of Zhao Fusheng was inappropriate.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Jinghua waved her hand: "It's okay. It's not a big deal. Just cancel it."

Fan Baobao's eyes almost popped out when she heard that: "Sister Hua, what did you say?"

Wang Jinghua chuckled: "I said, I'll send someone to negotiate later. You just focus on filming."

Nodding somewhat numbly, Fan Baobao felt like she might be dreaming. Since when had Sister Hua become so easy to talk to?
