What I lack most is time. Not just them, but many others are following behind me… Acting isn’t my main job. You’ve seen—behind me is a company, with directors, screenwriters, singers, composers, even movie theaters… They all depend on me for their livelihood…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Xiaoshi wanted to say more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jingya cut in, fixing Zhou Yang with a stare: “Mr. Zhou, we both want Chen and you.

The character’s inner essence and setting won’t change—I think the lines and dialogue are perfect. But for the character’s wardrobe and design, I want to decide myself…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Jingya and An Xiaoshi exchanged another glance, finding this demand bizarre: “Lin Feng is a CEO—he wears suits and formal attire…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I’ll choose the brand of the suit. I’ll choose the brand for every piece of clothing and accessory for Lin Feng!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they heard this, Zhang Jingya and An Xiaoshi whispered to each other briefly—compared to salary and shares, this demand, though strange, was not high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They finally nodded. An Xiaoshi looked at Zhou Yang: “As long as it’s not excessive, I can accept it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you can accept these terms, then let’s sign the contract…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I have one small request…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What request?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“CEOs always drive luxury cars, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That red Audi A6 over there looks good—can I test-drive it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>………………………………\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yang walked out of the company alone, pulled out his phone, looked at the string of missed calls, and dialed one, smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Mr. Xu, I know the suits are expired…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Xu, I’ve been busy all along.
