《Wei Sama, Let's Stuff Them With Dog Food[1]》174. A Video Call
Advertisement
It turned out that Tresse was such a decisive person. That night, he sent the address of Damien’s studio to Qi Le’an’s phone. And twelve hours later, Qi Le’an was sitting in the office, facing Damien with a dreamy expression.
Early that morning, Tresse had flown to Las Vegas. Qi Le’an waited outside the building of Damien’s office for a long time but he met no one. He then called and was told that Tresse was no longer in New York. On the phone, Tresse could only laugh and let Qi Le’an go upstairs by himself.
Qi Le’an turned around the building outside twice before he was “picked up” by Damien.
In his forties, Damien appeared quite bookish. His blond hair was curly and messy, and the pair of glasses on his nose made him look knowledgeable.
Damien was very tall, seemingly 1.9 meters. And Qi Le’an had to raise his head slightly to look at him.
The great director had long seen this oriental-faced man wandering outside in distress with his mobile phone in his hand. He felt it was fun and watched him for a long time. In the end, he went downstairs himself and led Qi Le’an upstairs.
Qi Le’an would be a fool if he didn’t know he had been watched that way until then. With a red face, he sat there and didn’t know what to say.
Finally, Damien broke the ice by asking, “Do you play music?”
Qi Le’an had never played music. He only played the piano for fun and it was taught by Wei Changfeng.
He thus honestly replied, “No.”
Damien frowned and took a sip of coffee.
Qi Le’an thought he was done for.
The male lead was a music prince, and he was nothing…
“Can you sing then?” Damien asked again.
Qi Le’an didn’t dare to say no anymore but quickly answered, “Yes! I sang before!”
Damien was finally relaxed a little, and then he nodded, “I’ve seen the recording of your Othello. You did sing well.”
Qi Le’an didn’t expect that Damien would have seen his opera, so he awkwardly responded, “Well… it’s just so so…”
Damien stared at him until Qi Le’an was about to have cold sweat. At last, he said, “My opera.. must be an exquisite one.”
‘What does it mean?! Wei Sama, this man is so terrible! I want to go home!’ Qi Le’an was thinking.
“Therefore, I will be very strict with this work. I hope you are mentally prepared.”
Hearing this sentence, Qi Le’an didn’t know whether he should be happy or sad. He didn’t know whether Damien meant to employ him or not.
“Then… Thank you, Director,” Qi Le’an responded nervously.
At last, Damien revealed a smile, “You are suitable for the image of Jack.”
Qi Le’an had no idea how he was suitable. That Jack in the script was a lonely prince, who was immersed in the music world all day. However, he was left frustrated and unhappy all the time until he met the female lead. At last, he took the initiative to walk out of the shadows and his music became light and happy.

After the veil was pulled away, the audience was able to see Jack brimming with enthusiasm.
“I’ll send you the complete script later,” Damien entered his working mode and said to Qi Le’an, “We’re going to start shooting in September as scheduled. You’re coming to attend the script workshop next midmonth. The shooting cycle is three months. Are you OK with that?”
In the past, it was Chen Shan who handled all these affairs for Qi Le’an. As for this first time, Qi Le’an was completely unprepared and thus he asked, “September? Isn’t that… next semester?”
Qi Le’an had just started his schooling for a year and a half and he had to continue next semester.
Damien frowned again, “There will be someone in charge of Tisch’s Practice Course for you. I hope that you will handle your affairs in this remaining month.”
Qi Le’an quickly replied, “Yes.”
Damien nodded with satisfaction, “Is there any problem with the time scheduled?”
Qi Le’an shook his head, “No.” He told himself, ‘This man looks scary and I must leave him as soon as possible.’
Damien looked at the time and then said, “Then that’s it. An assistant will contact you later.”
Qi Le’an, “…” ‘Is this over?’ he wondered.
Damien’s expression was seemingly asking why Qi Le’an didn’t go away. Qi Le’an, however, was still in a daze. Slowly, he stood up and asked nervously, “Then… I’m leaving now?”
Qi Le’an scratched his head and turned to leave.
“Wait,” Damien suddenly added.
Qi Le’an immediately turned back to wait for the Big Boss’ instruction.
The gaze behind Damien’s glasses flashed, “Do you think that He Lei is trash?”
He Lei was the female lead in the opera. Qi Le’an was afraid that Damien would keep on talking about the topic, so he said with a confused expression, “Indeed, she’s quite a scumbag…”
There Damien gnashed his teeth in anger. Qi Le’an was frightened because he thought he had stepped on a minefield. However, he heard Damien say, “You are the first person who dared to speak the truth. Well, you may go now.”
Qi Le’an, “…”
As he walked out of the office, Qi Le’an shivered. Though Damien looked bookish, he wondered why he felt Director Damien looked like a man-eating beast?!
Weak and coward, Qi Le’an quickly returned home and told Wei Changfeng about everything happening to him today.
“You say he chose me… Is it because I dared to comment that about his ex-girlfriend?”
Wei Changfeng asked, “… Do you know who Damien’s ex-girlfriend is?”
Qi Le’an shook his head and asked, “Who is it? Could it be a certain star… ”
Wei Changfeng smiled and said, “No. It is just a daughter of an MP’s, whose brother is said to be the most popular candidate for the presidency.”
Qi Le’an was speechless. He sighed secretly, ‘It’s over. I’m not going to make this movie, OK?’
Both Qi Le’an and Damien had just met each other in the morning, and in the afternoon, someone who called himself an assistant sent a series of contracts in the electronic form to Qi Le’an. Qi Le’an and Wei Changfeng read the contracts in bed. And Qi Le’an was shocked, “So much money?!”

Almost seven figures in the amount! He had never earned so much money on his own!
Qi Le’an couldn’t believe it and he counted the zeros on the computer again.
Wei Changfeng touched Qi Le’an on the head and praised, “Yes, your salary is going to be higher than Wei Sama now.”
Wei Changfeng was the executive director for Director Spear. Of course, his salary wouldn’t be as high as an actor's. Qi Le’an’s salary was dozens of times his.
Qi Le’an was so excited that he even had the illusion that he was keeping Wei Sama in his love nest!
And from now on, he could buy whatever he wanted!
He couldn’t help but tell Chen Shan on the other side of the earth the good news, who called him back immediately, “When will you sign the contract? Wait for me! I’ll go together with you!”
Lying on the bed, Qi Le’an did not expect Chen Shan to come over. He straightened up and asked, “Brother Chen, are you coming? When? ”
Chen Shan replied, “I’ll just go and sign the contract with you! How could your agent be absent from such an important occasion? Send me a copy of the contract, and I’ll let the legal office take a look first.”
Qi Le’an couldn’t help laughing, “No problem! I haven’t replied to them yet. …However, their side has always been very fast in the process… ”
He believed Damien’s side would probably work very quickly like deciding the role in a day and signing a contract in a day too…
Upon hearing this, Chen Shan said, “It doesn’t matter! Just wait for me!”
After hanging up, Qi Le’an excitedly told Wei Changfeng, “Wei Sama! Brother Chen said he is coming!”
Chen Shan had taken over his family business in the past two years. Qi Le’an did not expect that his Brother Chen would appear at the spot where he was signing the contract.
Wei Changfeng looked pampered. He suggested, “It’s just the summer vacation. Would you like to ask your godmother and sister to come over for a visit?”
Qi Le’an’s eyes lit up at the idea! He immediately texted a message to Chen Shan and Chen Shan replied that he would ask for his mother’s opinion.
However, according to Chen Mama’s degree of love for Qi Le’an, it was estimated that she would certainly come if she didn’t have other arrangements.
Qi Le’an was quite excited, “It would be great if my godmother and sister came!”
Then, he added, “It’s good if Aunty and Uncle would also come!”
Wei Changfeng looked mild at hearing this, and he didn’t tell that he had another arrangement.
He had already proposed and would soon report it to his family and come out of the closet.
Chen Mama missed Qi Le’an too, and her daughter would be attending kindergarten after the summer vacation. Chen Mama wanted to take her daughter out for fun. Thus when Chen Shan asked her about it, she happily agreed.
“Does Le’an need anything?” Chen Mama asked, “When are we leaving? I’ll go and buy some specialties for Le’an!”
Chen Shan was confused, “We can buy anything there! Besides, the Customs will not allow those strange things to go over! Le’an doesn’t need anything!”
Chen Mama rolled her eyes at her son and insisted, “No, I’ll ask Le’an about it!”
“No, no!” Chen Shan hurriedly stopped her, “You know the time difference between China and America! Your godson is sleeping at this time!”
Chen Mama thought it was right, so she could only stop and endure it. She had to wait until the daytime in America so that she could give Qi Le’an a video call.
Qi Le’an was once again overindulgent last night. He was thus tired and lazy in the morning and even didn’t want to receive the video call. When he saw that it was from Chen Mama, he woke up a little. He rubbed his eyes and answered the call while putting on a T-shirt.
“Le’an!” Chen Mama was excited, “Are you busy studying recently? Chen Shan told me that you’ve signed a new movie. Will we be able to see you in the cinema soon?”
Qi Le’an sat up a little and replied, “I guess it will be on during next summer vacation.”
“Next summer vacation isn’t too far away! My son will be a Hollywood superstar soon. I must send something to you… ” Chen Mama paused suddenly, her face turning red.
Qi Le’an looked puzzled at seeing this….
Chen Mama went on after a cough, “Well when you come home, you shall sign me a signature…”
Qi Le’an noticed that his godmother appeared with a strange expression on her face, and he suddenly realized something.
“Well, I won’t disturb you… you just go on sleeping!” Then, she hung up in a hurry.
Qi Le’an looked at the screen on the phone, maintained the same angle and then he turned on the camera.
On the phone screen, Qi Le’an found himself sitting there, wearing a white T-shirt with a messy bed behind him.
On the messy bed, a white arm was exposed from the black bedding, which was particularly conspicuous.
Qi Le’an turned around and saw that Wei Changfeng, who had been buried in the blanket, had changed his position and revealed one of his arms.
His face instantly turned red and screamed, “Wei Sama Wei Sama!”
Qi Le’an, at last, realized that he had been in a hurry to pick up the video call. He had only worn a set of clothes and had earphones on before he should have changed the venue. He would never have thought that his godmother would have seen all these!
Wei Changfeng woke up with confusion in his eyes. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
Qi Le’an looked like that his sky had collapsed. He cried, “Just now, I had a video call with my godmother! She saw everything!”
Wei Changfeng was not wearing any clothes. He was startled too. He asked, “What did she see?”
Qi Le’an replied, “Probably an arm of yours?”
Wei Changfeng was relieved, “Well, that’s good. It was just an arm of mine.”
Here on the other side of the earth, after Chen Mama hung up, she shouted, “Chen Shan! Your brother has someone on his bed!
And that person had nothing on!”
