Mike's eyes twinkled and even I could tell he wanted to accept her suggestion.
"How much is the sponsorship?"
Michelle raised her chin slightly and said confidently, "all of them!"
Pleasantly surprised, Mike asked flatly, "What about other plays of you? I'm afraid it won't adjust at all."
Michelle gave a thoughtful smile. "I need a substitute whose figure is similar to mine to act in the movie for several days. It's the best if the actress can be shot. If not, I can terminate the contract. Anyway, the shooting environment of that script is very ordinary and hard. If it is not for the still movie to be displayed every year, I really don't want to accept it. Now I get the limelight, and it's easier to make a good TV play to be popular."
Michelle raised her head and noticed that I was in the room.
When she looked at me, I felt somewhat uneasy, just like a thief who had stolen something from her and felt guilty when I saw the person who owned the thing.
Michelle stood up and circled around me with a look of interest.
"Who is she? I haven't seen her before, a new girl? "
"She is indeed a new employee. She signed the contract when you came in just now."
Michelle looked at me with a smile. "What did you take before?"
I avoided her eyes uncomfortably. "I think I haven't taken any pictures."
"Graduate from the acting major?"
"No, I've never learned it."
"Good at singing and dancing?"
I shook my head awkwardly. "I don't know either."
Michelle looked back at Mr. Xia and sneered, "The company is really getting bolder and bolder and dares to use any person. Does it only depend on the face now?"
Mr. Xia looked at me and then turned to Michelle. "Don't you know her?"
"Why should I know her?"
"I thought you knew her, so I didn't ask her to leave. She was introduced by Rosie. I thought you would have seen her."
Michelle frowned and looked back at me. "You know Rosie?"
"Yes, I know her."
"What's your relationship?"
"A friend."
Michelle pouted, "Since when has Rosie become so nosy? She's making a false countercharge against me."
Michelle stood beside me and said, "Never mind. After all, I will be Rosie's sister-in-law. I have to show respect for her. Since she is one of Rosie's good friends, please take care of her, Mr. Xia."
Mr. Xia smiled. "Of course."
"Look at us! Are we similar in height and figure?"
"That makes sense," Mr. Xia remarked, nodding approvingly.
Then, I can give a chance to Rosie's friend. It just happens that my previous stand in for her has resigned. As for my bad script, after kicking on, let her take the place of me to shoot a few scenes, as a compensation for her training. After all, she has no experience after all."
Michelle looked sideways at me and asked "And you? Are you willing to do that?"
"I will follow the company's arrangement."
Before Mr. Xia could say anything, Michelle said, "It's settled then."
Michelle went to the door of the office and asked Mr. Xia with her hand on the doorknob, "About what I just said, do you need time to consider?"
"If you can really get all the sponsorship, of course it's no problem, I don't need to think about it."
