Lin Daoqiu's idea was a bit wild and he deliberately made Lizhi's reputation in the media bad.

Li Tiansheng really couldn't understand Lin Daoqiu's behavior. Once the star's reputation deteriorates, will anyone still be willing to watch her show?

If it turns out to be self-defeating, I'm afraid it will arouse the audience's resentment towards Li Zhi. At that time, the TV station will not dare to use her.

If Lin Daoqiu hadn't decided to do this, Li Tiansheng would never have agreed to this approach, because it was too unbelievable.

But since the boss decided to do this, Li Tiansheng could only try his best to cooperate.

Li Tiansheng had to arrange other things, while Lin Daoqiu went directly to the lounge to visit Li Zhi.

If this kind of thing is not explained clearly to her, Lin Daoqiu is worried that it will affect Li Zhi's mood.

Sitting in the VIP lounge, Li Zhi looked a little bored.

Before attending the press conference, Li Tiansheng told her that she didn't need to say anything on stage and that she could come back to rest after the group photo.

Li Zhi didn't think too much. After all, she had never been a protagonist before, not even an important supporting role. Naturally, she didn't know the process of the launch conference.

It's just that although Li Zhi didn't understand anything, she could clearly hear the reporter's displeasure at the scene.

"Is this really good?"

Li Zhi was a little worried that the reporters would be very unhappy because he had not accepted an interview with them just now.

But Li Tiansheng asked her to come back and rest, and Li Zhi did not dare to go out to be interviewed by reporters, so she didn't know what to do now.

At this moment, the door to the lounge suddenly opened, and Lin Daoqiu walked in from the outside.

As soon as he saw Lin Daoqiu come in, Li Zhi stood up from the sofa in a hurry, and then respectfully called Mr. Lin.

"You're welcome, we are all on our own, sit down."

Lin Daoqiu spoke in Mandarin when he opened his mouth, and when he said "home", he did not mean that Li Zhi was an employee of Dongshi. He actually meant that both of them came from the mainland.

The difference is that Li Zhi took the right path, while Lin Daoqiu took the waterway.

"Mr. Lin..."

Li Zhi looked very happy when he heard someone speaking Mandarin to him.

Although she is very proficient in Cantonese, if she does not deliberately control her speech, she will naturally speak a few words in Mandarin from time to time.

"I have become accustomed to speaking Cantonese in Xiangjiang over the years. Except in Treasure Island, there are basically no opportunities to speak Mandarin. If you don't mind, let's chat in Mandarin when no one is around."

"Actually, I don't speak Cantonese well. During the artist training class, the teachers tried to correct my pronunciation, but they couldn't."

Li Zhi didn't seem to have thought about changing her pronunciation. After all, it was something she was born with. If she couldn't change it, she couldn't change it.

However, her pronunciation of Mandarin is very standard, and she will have no problem being a host.

"Forget it if you can't change it. There is no need to force this kind of thing. After all, your identity is there. No matter how good you speak Cantonese, they will still use your identity to make matters."

Li Zhi nodded helplessly after hearing this. After she arrived in Xiangjiang, once her identity from the mainland was known to others, she was often used as an object of ridicule.

But Li Zhi didn't care about it, she always studied hard.

She once went to New Art City for an interview, but unfortunately those guys thought her dress was too vulgar and not suitable for being a star, so they rejected her.

Later, Li Zhi went to study abroad and saw the Miss Oriental beauty pageant, so he decided to come back and compete.

"Actually, I was the same way back then. Everyone looked down on me, but with my own efforts, I have achieved some success."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Li Zhi smiled back at him.

"If Mr. Lin is only considered a minor success, then there will probably be only a handful of people in Xiangjiang who dare to claim to be successful."

Lin Daoqiu was already a world-renowned filmmaker at this time, well-known in the Chinese world, and he was not yet thirty years old.

It is no exaggeration to say that in Li Zhi's view, Lin Daoqiu is already one of those legendary figures, a genius that is rare to see in a century.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at chatting. I thought you would be shy when you saw me, but it seems I was wrong."

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect Li Zhi to be so good at chatting. He originally thought that Li Zhi, like other girls, would be shy when he was alone with him for the first time.

If you are chatting in Cantonese, then Lizhi may not be so good at it.

But for some reason, when Lin Daoqiu started chatting with her in Mandarin, Li Zhi immediately felt a sense of intimacy.

Perhaps it was because no one had chatted with her in Mandarin in Xiangjiang for a long time. Returning to a familiar context, Li Zhi's nervousness disappeared without a trace, and he naturally became talkative.

"I don't know what's wrong with me. I just feel a sense of intimacy when I see Lin Daoqiu. Maybe it's because you are approachable, so you make me feel very relaxed."

After the small talk, Lin Daoqiu still wanted to explain his plan and Li Zhi.

"I hope you will listen carefully to the next words, which will have a very far-reaching impact on your future."

Li Zhi nodded quickly, then put on a very serious expression and listened to Lin Daoqiu's words.

"I plan to make you a big star..."

"But this big star is not easy to admire. Generally speaking, most of the actors who have acted in my dramas can become famous, but you are an exception."

Li Zhi seemed to understand what Lin Daoqiu meant, but seemed a little confused.

"Because of your identity, it is almost impossible for everyone to accept you and like you at once..."

"At this time, people here have a backward and conservative view of the mainland. They feel that they are superior to others. How can they accept that people from the mainland suddenly become famous?"

What Lin Daoqiu said is true. Not only in this era, but also in the following decades, Xiangjiang's view of the mainland has not changed much.

That is to say, as the mainland gradually became richer and stronger, they slowly began to officially rise as the mainland.

It's just that it's obviously impossible for them to accept it immediately and admit their wisdom at this time.

"Even though there are so many difficulties and obstacles, I still want to praise you. Firstly, because you are indeed very good and a natural actor. In addition..."

"I want them to know that even those from the mainland are not inferior to others. I want to slap them in the face hard."

Li Zhi nodded while listening. She very much agreed with Lin Daoqiu's statement, and she also hoped that Lin Daoqiu's wish would come true as soon as possible.
