"Manager, I have to take leave this afternoon."

Xiao Tao came to the manager's office and asked for leave straightforwardly.

"What are you going to do on leave?"

A male manager who looked to be about thirty years old subconsciously asked after hearing this.

"I'm going to xx to see Jiang Xiao. He's coming to Shanghai. He even replied to me on Weibo and said he would give me an autographed photo. Ah, I'm so excited just thinking about it now."

Xiao Tao, who was slightly excited, spoke frankly.

"No, Jiang Xiao...you chase stars? During work hours, you actually took time off to chase stars? What are you thinking? No."

After hearing such a reason, the manager objected without even thinking about it.

"Why not? What a rare opportunity!"

"It's not allowed. There are so many reasons why."

"I'm not allowed to go, but if you can, fire me, brother!"

"Hey, don't think that because you are my biological sister, I won't dare to fire you!"

After hearing what his sister said, the manager, Xiaotao's brother, responded unwillingly.

"Then I will go home and tell my sister-in-law that you are bullying me."

Xiao Tao delivered a "fatal blow".

"I...threatened me with your sister-in-law. Do you think...forget it, go ahead, go ahead. It's my misfortune to end up with a sister like you."

Xiaotao's brother finally admitted his cowardice.

"Hee, thank you brother, you are the best. By the way, Sister Lin will also go with me. I will invite you together!"

After Xiaotao got her wish, her attitude immediately changed, and she turned around and prepared to leave.

"stop!"

Seeing this, Xiao Tao's brother also quickly called out to Xiao Tao.

"What else are you doing?"

"Well, by the way, let's get an autographed photo for your sister-in-law!"

"I know, don't worry, hee!"

Jiang Xiao himself, who had no idea that a casual reply to a Weibo post would lead to a confrontation between a brother and a sister, received a call from Yang Mi not long after he quietly arrived at the Xiatan Hotel in a car.

No, the woman asked him directly: "Master, have you arrived in the devil's capital?"

"Well, we're here. Come visit your class tomorrow."

Almost a week ago, Jiang Xiao accidentally mentioned to Damimi that he was coming to Shanghai. From this, the other party knew that it was not so strange for him to come to Shanghai. At that time, the woman even acted coquettishly and asked him to go to Hengdian to visit the class.

"Beauty's Scheming" has been completed and "Palace" has also begun filming. Therefore, since the woman joined the crew of "Beauty's Scheming" before the Chinese New Year, she has never left Hengdian. Who would want the filming locations of these two movies to be in Hengdian.

It’s not surprising that there are many actors in the industry who stay in Hengdian for a long time all year round.

For the sake of convenience, some people simply buy a house there, which is almost a second home.

"No need, I'm free today and will come to Magic City. We'll meet in the evening."

Yang Mi on the other end of the phone quickly informed Jiang Xiao that she would go to the Magic City.

"Really? Are you coming to Magic City?"

Jiang Xiao was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's Shi Shi's birthday today. I went to the Magic City to celebrate with her. It just so happens that you, Master, are going too. We all know each other anyway."

"Liu Shishi's birthday? Today?"

"Yes, just today."

"Oh, then doesn't she spend time with her own family?"

Liu Shishi and Kim Taeyeon's birthdays were actually two days before and after each other. This was something Jiang Xiao never expected.

"She is in the Magic City, and her family is in the capital!"

Yang Mi further explained.

"Okay, is Tang Ren going to hold a birthday celebration for Shi Shi or something?"

Jiang Xiao asked again.

"No, just celebrate by yourself in private, no one else, we are best friends, and now that you have arrived in the Magic City, there is one more for you."

"Isn't Tang Yan also your mutual best friend? Won't she come?"

"Who said that? Shi Shi and I have the best relationship. We are just ordinary friends with Tang Yan, not to the level of best friends."

Yang Mi denied.

"Uh...really?"

Hearing what the woman said, Jiang Xiao didn't understand.

In the future, Yang Mi breaks up with Liu Shishi first, and Tang Yan becomes the only true best friend, and finally...

He didn't know the specific reason, but then he thought of a joke, saying that the three of them had a fight because Liu Shishi and Tang Yan were fighting in the Internet cafe. Yang Mi not only failed to break up the fight, but also closed the door of the Internet cafe, so she

They all broke up.

Well, this is indeed a joke, and it can only be heard as a joke, otherwise it would be too fantastical.

The rumor that is more decent is that Yang Mi hated Tang Ren's Cai Yinong because of the game advertisement, and the latter was Liu Shishi's immediate boss. They were in a dilemma, and finally chose to remain silent, so the best friend broke up.

Tang Yan said that there was a conflict between Yao Dazui and Yang Mi because of the endorsement, but the former walked in after the relationship, so...

These nonsense, whether they are true or false, need to be investigated deeply, to the extent that they might as well be said to be the laws of nature.

I really have lifelong best friends there. After all, most changes in people begin with the environment around them.

"Yes, when we were filming "Sword of Immortal", Shi Shi and I had the best relationship, and we were not even close to Tang Yan."

Yang Mi, who didn't know what Jiang Xiao was thinking, confirmed again.

"OK, if it's not, it's not."

Although he was surprised, Jiang Xiao was not very concerned about these issues.

"Then Master, we have agreed that you can come over and celebrate together tonight. Remember to bring a birthday gift. There is no need for a cake. I have already ordered it."

"Okay, got it!"

Even though he was in a hurry, Jiang Xiao thought about it and didn’t refuse to celebrate Sister Shi Shi’s birthday.

"Well, Master, I'll see you in the evening!"

"Okay, see you tonight."

After hanging up Yang Mi's call, Jiang Xiao called Dilraba over again, gave the woman the card, and asked her to go out with Zhou Jiao to help him buy a birthday gift for her.

He himself began to prepare for the afternoon activities, and his personal makeup artist and stylist Jiang Yiguo and his other half Luo Feifei helped him deal with styling issues.

Speaking of this fellow, now Jiang Xiao is actually not the only one who does makeup and styling. People like Tianbao, Little Dao Girl, Da Meiyuan, etc., when necessary, Jiang Yiguo and the two are also fully responsible.

Therefore, the word "private" can be removed.

Apart from this, during the process, Jiang Xiao also found time to hold a laptop that he always brought with him to process or check some work matters.

For example, now he is going to check the ratings of "Beijing Love Story". This drama was officially broadcast on Shu Province Satellite TV's prime time when he first went to South Korea.

All in all, when he opened his work email, he quickly saw the ratings of "Beijing Love Story" these days. To his surprise, it had a ratings of 1.87 on the first day it was launched.

It directly reached 2.38 the next day, and then basically continued to rise. This is obviously a characteristic of popular dramas.

If it gets worse, it will only prove that the show has not been recognized by the audience.

Then as of the latest ratings, "Beijing Love Story" has broken 3 and reached 3.22, which surprised Jiang Xiao himself. Although he knew that this drama had good ratings in his memory, it was still surprising.

Since the beginning of 2010, this achievement has only been behind "Myth".

The latter was broadcast by Yangba, and it broke 3.13 on the first day, with the highest single episode reaching 4.13.

This drama is still being revived. If it weren't for the sudden rise of "Beijing Love Story", it would probably have been the king for a while.

But no matter what, "Beijing Love Story" has become the most popular drama in the ratings.

By the way, Tong Liyan once again gained high attention after "Latent".

In addition, Shu Province Satellite TV must have breathed a sigh of relief and bought the drama at a high price. In the end, it won the bet and achieved success.

It is true that Jiang Xiao is also a direct beneficiary. The production cost of "Beijing Love Story" was 25 million, with Lemon investing 20 million and Zhao Baogang's company investing 5 million.

Then it was sold to the exclusive Shu Province Satellite TV in the first round, and the price was packaged at 48 million.

In other words, now we have more than 20 million yuan in income, and 75% of it belongs to lemons, which is almost 17 million yuan.
