Chapter 209 You Liar
The promotion was very successful, and all the prepared goods were sold out at 3 pm.
Manager Xiao was very happy and planned to reward Zhang Ran and others and give them fifty yuan per person. However, Zhang Ran and others don’t want money, but they want cosmetic samples. Although Manager Xiao was a little surprised, he did not refuse. The cosmetic samples were worthless and gave Zhang Ran and others a pack of samples generously.
After leaving the cosmetics company, Huang Shengyi excitedly told everyone that if all the samples were sold, they would probably be sold for 700 to 800 yuan. This caused everyone to cheer, and selling all the samples would cost more than 100 yuan each!
Everyone discussed it with a bag of cosmetic samples, and boarded the bus to Master University. It is said that Huang Shengyi said that Master University is the school with the most girls in the Magic City, and girls are very good at applying makeup, which is a good place to sell cosmetics. Although Jiaotong University is relatively close, when you look around the campus, you will see that there are all men everywhere. I followed Shaolin Temple and it is not suitable to buy cosmetics.
There are not many stalls on the back door of Master University, and the street is deserted, with only two or three kittens. According to the division of labor agreed on in the car, Huang Shengyi and Liu Yifei were responsible for selling cosmetics. They spread out the oil cloth, poured out the cosmetic samples, and arranged them one by one.
Zhang Ran was in charge of looking at the wind. He asked other stall people and found out that the urban management had just come to inspect and everyone else was driven away. It is very safe now.
Yao Xintong, Guo Zhen, and Bian Xiaoxiao are responsible for pretending to be a child care provider. Most people don’t buy cosmetics from roadside stalls, so they need to take the lead in trying out and paying money to create a hot atmosphere. People have herd mentality, and many people will have the urge to pay when they see others buying.
Huang Shengyi and Liu Yifei set up a stall and stood on the side of the road to start selling: "Authentic Natural Hall, special offer!"
There were many girls coming and going in and out of the school. When they heard Huang Shengyi and the others shouting, they looked here, but no one stopped, and no one came forward to ask for the price. Who dared to buy cosmetics from roadside stalls?
Zhang Ran knew it was time for the childcare to take the stage, so he rushed to Yao Xintong, who was standing at the intersection, and gestured to her to take the stage.
Yao Xintong walked to the back of the school as if nothing had happened. When passing by Huang Shengyi and the others' stall, she unexpectedly said "huh" and seemed to discover the new world. She looked at the cosmetics on the stall and asked, "Is your natural hall genuine? It's not a fake one, right?"
Huang Shengyi said righteously: "It's genuine. My relatives at home are making cosmetics. I took some samples from her to buy them to earn some pocket money. You usually use cosmetics, but you'll know if they're genuine. Try it!"
Yao Xintong seemed a little hesitant and finally nodded: "Then try it!"
Huang Shengyi opened a bottle of sample for trial and applied a piece on the back of Yao Xintong's hand. After waiting for two minutes, she pointed to Yao Xintong's back and said, "How is it? It's good to absorb it? Authentic cosmetics absorb very quickly, and there are many impurities in fake goods, so they often absorb very slowly!"
Yao Xintong was moved and nodded repeatedly: "The effect is pretty good, how do you sell this one?"
Huang Shengyi started quoting: "3 pieces of 5g of facial cream, 5 pieces of 50g of facial cleanser, 3 pieces of 20ml of ice skin water..."
Yao Xintong exclaimed: "Wow, the price is really cheap!"
Zhang Ran frowned. If this was the class, he would definitely call Yao Xintong over and scold her. The acting was too exaggerated! It was not a Taiwanese idol drama, so who would be surprised if he bought cosmetics?
After Yao Xintong, Guo Zhen, Bian Xiaoxiao took turns to the stage, asked Huang Shengyi and bargained with her. The two of them performed better than Yao Xintong, at least they looked like that. Under their leadership, Huang Shengyi's stall was soon surrounded by people.
Huang Shengyi and the others were busy. A fashionable and gorgeous girl came out of the school and saw Huang Shengyi standing in the stall and greeted her: "Hey, isn't this Huang Shengyi?"
Huang Shengyi didn't expect to meet her high school classmate. She was a classmate who had been competing in secret. But after all, she was a classmate, so Huang Shengyi didn't want to say hello. She said, "Xia Xiaoling, what a coincidence!"
Xia Xiaoling looked surprised: "Holy Yi, why did you run to the gate of our school to set up a stall?"
Huang Shengyi did not explain: "Selling cosmetic samples, natural hall, absolutely authentic, Xia Xiaoling, please take a look!"
Xia Xiaoling and Huang Shengyi are classmates in high school. They are both famous beauties and good at singing and dancing, so the two have been competing secretly. However, Huang Shengyi is better than her in all aspects and is more popular in the class. After graduating from high school, Huang Shengyi was admitted to the performance department of Beijing Film Academy, and she entered the performance department of Normal University, and the gap between the two was even wider.
Xia Xiaoling thought that she and Huang Shengyi would never interact with each other. She never dreamed that she would see Huang Shengyi at the school gate, and she was actually selling cosmetics. At this moment, Xia Xiaoling had only one idea, God opened her eyes!
Huang Shengyi didn't say what was going on, but Xia Xiaoling didn't let her go: "Shengyi, what's going on? You are not studying in Peking, how could you sell cosmetics here?"
Zhang Ran told Huang Shengyi and the others that she forgot her identity as a student and regarded herself as a real migrant worker. Therefore, the students in the class designed their identity, and Huang Shengyi was no exception. Although Xia Xiaoling obviously had a gloating tone, she clearly wanted to see her jokes, but she did not forget her current identity. A trace of pain flashed in her eyes and said with a wry smile: "I dropped out of school and now I'm in the cosmetics business. Xia Xiaoling, try our cosmetics!"
"Shengyi, we are classmates. I should take care of your business." Xia Xiaoling captured the pain in Huang Shengyi's eyes, and felt extremely happy. "But I have never heard of this brand before. Who dares to apply it on my face? You don't know that I just met the director yesterday. If there is a problem with my face, my future will be ruined!"
After Xia Xiaoling said this, the girls who were planning to pay for it immediately hesitated. Yes, cosmetics are applied to their faces. Who should I find if something goes wrong?
Huang Shengyi was really angry: "Xia Xiaoling, although the Natural Hall was only two years old, the market response was very good. She was also selected as one of the top 20 cosmetics in the country this year. Don't talk nonsense!"
Xia Xiaoling said innocently: "It's just the top 20, not even the top 10, no wonder I haven't heard of it. I rarely use domestic cosmetics, but unfortunately you don't sell Xisili, otherwise I'll buy it."
Huang Shengyi rolled her eyes. Xisili's cosmetics are basically above 1,000. You can afford to use the ghost Xisili. Unless you are kept by someone, she has no intention of arguing with Xia Xiaoling and let Xia Xiaoling continue to stir up the business. "Xia Xiaoling. You know that our parents are both intellectuals, and they are very respectful. I dare not tell my family about dropping out of school. You can live on this now, can you stop making trouble?"
Zhang Ran was very satisfied with Huang Shengyi's performance. Huang Shengyi had a little temper and liked to behave her. But now she has not lost her calmness in the face of ridicule from her high school classmates. It is very rare. When this training is over, she can go out to take on the show!
Seeing Huang Shengyi saying pitifully, she was pleading and felt as comfortable as if she had eaten ginseng fruit: "Sacred Yi, let's have a classmate, if you have any help, come to me!" After saying this, she twisted her waist, shook her hair, and walked forward arrogantly.
Just a few steps away, a car driving from campus stopped on the side of the road and got off the car. Xia Xiaoling knew these two people. This is the director and producer of the crew of "Spring in Summer". She just met yesterday.
"Mr. Chen. Director Liu, hello, I am Xia Xiaoling!" Xia Xiaoling greeted the two of them slightly.
The director remembered Xia Xiaoling, nodding at her, and the producer was in a hurry and ignored her and went straight to Huang Shengyi. He walked to Huang Shengyi's street stall and smiled and said, "Shengyi, are you experiencing life here?"
Xia Xiaoling saw this scene and her chin almost broke. What's going on? Mr. Chen actually knew Huang Shengyi and was so enthusiastic about her?
Huang Shengyi wanted to meet Chen Zhenghong here, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here. It's such a coincidence. I'm doing cosmetics business now, all of which are genuine. Do you want to come some? Take care of the business!"
"Just like my old face, I have said goodbye to cosmetics!" Chen Zhenghong laughed and said to the director next to him, "This is Huang Shengyi, Zhang Ran's student. At first I saw the script and thought she was the best candidate for the heroine. However, Zhang Ran was not allowed to take on roles in the first and second year of the year, and he had very strict requirements on them. He definitely looked down on idol dramas like ours. Otherwise, he would just ask her to be the heroine, which would save a lot of trouble!"
The director next to him looked at Huang Shengyi and nodded constantly: "It would be a pity if she was asked to play Li Chuntian!"
Zhang Ran's students stayed in the crew of "Before Dawn" for several months, and Chen Zhenghong knew them. At this moment, he noticed that the girl next to Huang Shengyi had amazing beauty. In terms of appearance, she was still above Huang Shengyi, and asked in surprise: "Is this also a classmate in your class? Why haven't you seen it before?"
Huang Shengyi smiled and said, "She is Teacher Zhang's apprentice, our junior sister, and her name is Liu Yifei!"
Chen Zhenghong felt strange in his heart, why did an apprentice appear again and asked, "Where is your Teacher Zhang?"
Seeing that Chen Zhenghong and Zhang Ran were acquaintances, Liu Yifei raised her hand and pointed: "Looking at the wind there!"
Chen Zhenghong looked in the direction of Liu Yifei's finger and saw Zhang Ran wearing glasses and beard walking towards him with helpless expression. He couldn't help laughing and said, "If you don't say it, I really can't recognize you. I bring the students to experience life, but I didn't expect you to experience life yourself!"
Only then did Xia Xiaoling realize that she had been deceived by Huang Shengyi. Whatever she had dropped out of school and what she dared not tell her family was fake. She was experiencing life. She thought she had stepped on Huang Shengyi from now on, but she didn't expect it would be the result. She was really furious. Huang Shengyi, you bitch, you liar!
Zhang Ran did not explain to Chen Zhenghong and said with a smile: "Why are you here?"
Chen Zhenghong smiled and said, "In addition to holding a movie meeting in the Magic City, another purpose is to cast a new drama for the company. Come and introduce it to you. This is director Liu Yi. Liu Yi, this is Zhang Ran!"
"Happy, Happy, Director Zhang! I watched your "Before Dawn" and it was really great. This is the first time I have seen a domestic TV series of this style!" Liu Yi shook hands with Zhang Ran, and said very politely.
Zhang Ran had never heard of the name Liu Yi, and didn’t know what scene he had filmed. He said a few words, looked at Chen Zhenghong and asked casually: “You guys come here to cast the role, don’t you know what scene?”
Chen Zhenghong smiled and said, "An idol drama is called "Spring in Summer"!"
Zhang Ran was stunned when he heard "Spring in Summer". He had watched this drama in college and had some impressions. There were many shocking scenes in the whole drama, and the actors' acting skills were not satisfactory, and his lines were even more terrible. However, domestic idol dramas were rarely filmed in China, and "Spring in Summer" was one of the few that can be watched.
He didn't expect that this drama was cast by Chen Zhenghong, and said with a smile: "I said Mr. Chen, you are not a friend enough. The students in our class are all first-class in image and temperament. You don't come to us when you act in idol dramas!" (To be continued.)
