Hai Yang poked Du Qianze and asked him if Fang Yi had any muscles. Du Qianze rolled his eyes at him and didn't say anything. He asked the waiter to help Fang Yi order a few breakfasts.

A newcomer came to the crew today. He was very handsome, but it was beyond Du Qianze's expectations.

This drama mainly told the story between three brothers and their father. Su Ran played the second brother, who was a model. He was very busy with business and often flew around. Du Qianze played a painter who often immersed himself in painting in the studio and did not go home all day.

The eldest brother was an elite. He went to get off work normally every day and had a strong sense of family responsibility. He had the best relationship with his father among the three brothers. Although he did not have many roles, his character was the most likable in this TV drama that focused on warmth.

Li Yao did not introduce to them who played the eldest brother. Even at the press conference, he refused to explain the candidate.

There were only two possibilities for this situation. First, Li Yao had invited a big name, so he would not announce it for the time being to ensure better publicity in the future. Second, the person Li Yao had invited was a newcomer, and he planned to promote this newcomer. If it had been announced in advance, this person would definitely not have been as well-known as him and Su Ran.

The best way was to build momentum first and then release the news of his acting after this newcomer had gained some fame.

But after meeting the person, Du Qianze found that the two possibilities he listed were not correct. There was a third possibility, their company's general manager was arranged to act as the eldest brother.

The company where Du Qianze worked was called Rui Ji Media Co., Ltd. The founder of the company was Chi Ji. His son was called Chi Rui, who was 30 years old this year and was appointed as the general manager last year.

Chi Rui was a legendary existence in the company. Not only was he born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but he was also handsome, well-educated, and had studied abroad in a famous foreign university. However, this was only rumored, and whether it was true or not remained to be verified.

But it was true that Chi Rui was handsome. In the entertainment industry with many beauties, Chi Rui could also rank among the top. Even Hai Yang lamented that Du Qianze could not compare with him.

Chi Rui not only had a good appearance, but also had a good vision. He invested in several movies in succession, all of which were great successes. Although the reputation was not very good, the box office was definitely terrifyingly high, and he quickly suppressed the voice of dissatisfaction.

How could such a person, who had no shortage of money or fame, think of acting here, and in a drama that was definitely not going to be a big hit?

"Am I seeing this right?" Hai Yang pulled Du Qianze's sleeve and asked, "That's our boss. He's here to visit the set, right?"

"I just heard Director Li say that he's here to act." Du Qianze said in a low voice.

"Oh my..." Hai Yang was sure that he had heard it right, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. After a long time, he said to Du Qianze, "He deliberately doesn't want you to have a good time. If he stands in front of the camera, will other people still notice you?"

"You think too much." Du Qianze rolled his eyes at Hai Yang helplessly, but what Hai Yang said was not wrong. Chi Rui was going to play as the eldest brother, with a good personality and handsome looks. He would definitely be very popular after the drama was broadcast. As for him and Su Ran, they would definitely be suppressed.

Du Qianze glanced at Su Ran and noticed that Su Ran's face did not look good. Before Chi Rui arrived, Su Ran had been the most famous person in the crew, except for the supporting actors specially invited by Li Yao. But now that Chi Rui was here, although his fame was not the greatest, Su Ran's status could not compare to his. Moreover, Chi Rui was indeed good-looking and had an elite style.

Just by standing there without saying a word, he gave people the impression of a domineering president.

Su Ran had also been taking this route, but his appearance could not compare to Chi Rui’s, nor could his presence. What he would gain from this drama would definitely be much less than he had expected.

"Why did he choose this drama?" Hai Yang asked quietly.

This was a TV drama, and it was a family comedy. Chi Rui must not have many opportunities to show his domineering president aura. He might as well invest in a movie and play a love story between Cinderella and a domineering president. It would definitely be popular and his status would also be improved.

"How do I know?"

Chi Rui had been surrounded by people. After several important people in the crew greeted Chi Rui, Du Qianze also went up to greet him. Although he didn't need to please Chi Rui, he definitely couldn't make enemies with Chi Rui.

"Woof, woof, woof."

Du Qianze had just taken a few steps when Naima suddenly barked not far away, still at Chi Rui.

"It seems that I am still the same annoying person to dogs." Li Yao was very embarrassed when he heard the dog barking. Chi Rui's status and position were there, and he couldn't offend him, but he never expected that Naima would bark first. He turned around and prepared to scold Naima.

Before Li Yao could speak, Chi Rui spoke first and resolved the embarrassment.

"Director Li, I came here to film for only one purpose, which is to make the dogs not dislike me. Don't scold Naima for my affairs, otherwise Naima will definitely dislike me even more."

"Mr. Chi is joking." Seeing that Chi Rui didn't mind, Li Yao felt more relieved.

"Director Li, I'm telling you the truth. There is something I'm telling you. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I don't know why, but I have been disliked by dogs since I was a child. They always bark at me when they see me.

"This was nothing originally, but recently, my grandma got a pet dog, and it also barks whenever it sees me. It dislikes me, so my grandma also dislikes me and kicked me out of the house, saying that she would let me go home when I'm no longer disliked by dogs. That's why I came here to beg Director Li to arrange a role for me."
