Doctor: Picking Up Attributes in the Hospital-Chapter 360 - 332: Zhao Heng’s Friend Across Generations (Part 2)

Chapter 360: Chapter 332: Zhao Heng’s Friend Across Generations (Part 2)

"Senior, the studio you mentioned earlier, could it be Luo Ji’s?"

Shu Xin suddenly stood up, asking excitedly.

She dropped out of school to do self-media, hoping for greater development.

Nowadays, many people in the entertainment industry start as internet celebrities and self-media.

Although self-media can earn money, it’s really nothing compared to the entertainment industry.

For some celebrities, the entertainment world isn’t about making money; it’s about picking up money with a sack.

"It should be."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"Senior, do you think this big director might be preparing to shoot a new TV series or something?"

Shu Xin couldn’t help but ask.

"How would I know? But it seems he’s recently been involved in filming the ’Three-Body’ TV series."

From Shu Xin’s excited look, Zhao Heng could guess what she was thinking.

But it’s not surprising; nowadays, out of ten girls, at least three want to become big stars.

After becoming a celebrity, you earn fast and look glamorous, how nice!

"Alright, stop asking; Dr. Zhao just got to know this director."

Wang Yaoqing looked at his niece’s excited face and couldn’t help but speak with a bit of resignation.

When his niece dropped out of school to do self-media full-time, he was the one who convinced his sister about it.

On one hand, because Shu Xin was a girl and being a doctor is indeed tough, and on the other hand, because Wang Yaoqing saw that Shu Xin truly had the talent for self-media.

After all, without any guidance, she managed to build an account with three million followers on Bilibili. Such an achievement can’t be easily replicated even by professional self-media operations teams.

Self-media is also media, and since it’s media, it’s very close to the entertainment industry.

Wang Yaoqing could agree with Shu Xin doing self-media but wasn’t necessarily supportive of her entering the entertainment industry, which is a cutthroat world.

"Oh, I’m just asking casually. Besides, with my looks, I can shoot videos, but for TV dramas, it’s definitely not enough."

Shu Xin said with a self-aware look.

She was just curious, after all, she had never come into contact with a big director like Luo Ji.

Speaking of which, to be an actor or be photogenic is quite particular.

She has a sweet and cute appearance, considered a beauty among the public, but still falls short of the kind of beauty seen on TV.

Firstly, she has a round face with baby fat, a wide forehead, and a relatively high hairline. This kind of look naturally attracts many admirers in college and makes her a beauty, but in the entertainment circle full of beautiful women, it’s not much, not even meeting the entry-level criteria.

"Glad you have some self-awareness."

Wang Yaoqing snorted.

"I’m off tomorrow afternoon; if you’re interested, you can come along and take a look."

Zhao Heng thought about it and said.

Uncle Luo Ji is also a very carefree person, so it should be fine for Zhao Heng to bring Shu Xin along.

Zhao Heng guessed that the reason Uncle Luo Ji found Zhao Heng so congenial is mainly because Zhao Heng is not from the entertainment circle and can never have any relation with him, making their interactions much purer.

"Is that okay?"

Shu Xin asked in disbelief.

"There’s nothing wrong with it; we’re not in the entertainment circle, so whether he’s a director hasn’t anything to do with us, it doesn’t affect us."

Zhao Heng said.

As the saying goes, with no desires, one stands strong. If someone from the entertainment circle faces a big director like Luo Ji, it’s impossible to interact as equals. After all, the director holds many resources, and there’s always a need to request favors from people.

When Zhao Heng visits, at most he uses the background and asks for some photography tips.

As for Shu Xin, she just mentioned she doesn’t really want to develop in the entertainment circle and prefers doing her self-media seriously.

"Dr. Zhao is right; with no desires, one stands strong. If you were in the entertainment circle, facing a big director, you naturally couldn’t interact as equals."

Wang Yaoqing nodded, agreeing with Zhao Heng’s opinion.

Although Zhao Heng looks very young, sometimes Wang Yaoqing notices that Zhao Heng has a deep and thorough perspective, which is very rare among young people.

At this moment, Zhao Heng’s phone rang.

Picking it up, he saw a new WeChat message.

Swiping open the phone screen, Zhao Heng looked at the WeChat message with an odd expression.

"Senior, who sent you a WeChat this late?"

Seeing Zhao Heng’s odd expression, Shu Xin couldn’t help but ask.

"Speak of the devil."

Zhao Heng said.

"What do you mean? Who sent the WeChat?"

Shu Xin asked, puzzled.

"The director I mentioned just now, he texted asking if I want to have a late-night snack."

Zhao Heng said slowly.

Honestly, for a big director from the entertainment circle to ask him for a late-night snack, could it be no one else is available?

Thinking about it, it’s really possible.

Knowing many people doesn’t mean having someone you can call out for a late-night snack.

Maybe it’s because of all the pretentious socializing with people in the circle that Uncle Luo Ji sought out Zhao Heng, who he only met less than two days ago.

"Huh? Didn’t you say you just met two days ago, Senior? And you’re so familiar already?"

Shu Xin asked in confusion.

Just then, Zhao Heng received another WeChat message.

Seeing Zhao Heng’s odd expression again, Shu Xin couldn’t help but ask, "Senior, is it still the director who sent you the WeChat?"

"Hmm."

Zhao Heng nodded.

"What did he say?"

Shu Xin asked curiously.

Sitting next to Shu Xin, Wang Yaoqing also looked at Zhao Heng curiously.

"He asked where I was and wanted to come find me for drinks."

Zhao Heng said with a strange expression.

This being chased for a drink by someone is a first for him, and importantly, the one chasing him is an old man. If it were a beauty, it would have been nicer.

"Let him come, it doesn’t matter."

Wang Yaoqing chuckled.

He discovered another side of Zhao Heng. Just random late-night snacks end up with a big director; this naturally can’t just be a coincidence.

Wang Yaoqing speculated that the director uncle probably saw something special in Zhao Heng, leading to their interaction.

"Alright."

Zhao Heng thought for a moment and nodded.

There’s no harm in inviting him over; after all, it’s just a meal, not an issue having one more person.

After fifteen minutes, an energetic-looking old man walked into the teppanyaki shop. The old man looked around and, spotting Zhao Heng, immediately headed his way.

Standing in front of Zhao Heng, Uncle Luo Ji finally said to Zhao Heng, "Xiao Zhao, hope I’m not bothering you?"

"No, just eating."

For some reason, facing Luo Ji, Zhao Heng felt a rare sense of relaxation, something he couldn’t find with anyone else, which is peculiar.

"Sorry to bother you."

Luo Ji said to Wang Yaoqing and Shu Xin.

"Not at all, not at all! Dr. Zhao’s friend is my friend."

Wang Yaoqing said with a face full of smiles.

Meeting a big TV director like Luo Ji and dining together is something he could brag about for half a year.

Normally, people can’t even meet him, let alone sit and eat together.

When Uncle Luo Ji sat down, Zhao Heng, with some doubt, asked Luo Ji, "Old Luo, why did you suddenly want to find me for a drink at this late hour? What’s wrong?"

Zhao Heng treated Luo Ji as a good friend, so he called him Old Luo, and this was also Luo Ji’s favorite title.

"It’s all troublesome stuff from the circle. Recently finished shooting a drama, and both online and satellite broadcasting had been negotiated, but then the lead actress had an incident, and the drama got shelved."

Luo Ji sighed.

"Old Luo, the lead actress you’re talking about who had an incident isn’t the one I recently saw in the news, the older man-younger woman scandal, is it?"

Zhao Heng thought hard and asked with some disbelief.

"Yes, it’s her."

Luo Ji nodded with a bit of helplessness.

At this moment, sitting opposite, Wang Yaoqing and Shu Xin, hearing the big director talk about such a massive piece of gossip, wished they could lean their ears in, listening with utmost concentration and focus!
