Chapter 51

Zhao Wei took the business card without any concern, glanced at it, and didn't really take it to heart. She said, "There's not much to say, actually. The three of us came here because of skin allergies, as recommended by a friend. The doctor said it would take at least three days to control it, but we have to return to the film set in three days to continue shooting. We must be treated within three days."

Finally, she added, "A friend introduced us to an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor. After using a facial mask for one night, the symptoms of skin allergy disappeared. We came today for a follow-up to see if we have fully recovered."

Lin Huijia smiled gently and said, "I also have a skin allergy. The weather in the capital city doesn't suit me, and I've been eating quite greasy food recently, which led to the allergy. I wonder if the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor your friend introduced can help me meet him."

Her smile gave people a feeling of warmth, like the smile of a neighbor aunt under the willow trees in early spring, very approachable.

The traditional virtues of Chinese women were fully displayed in her.

Fan Binbin, feeling very happy, finally felt a great weight lifted from her heart and readily agreed.

However, Zhao Wei quickly pulled her back and said, "This is a matter of a friend of mine, and I can't make the decision. I should ask my friend first."

Lin Xinru pulled Ye Ming over, and Zhao Wei handed the business card to Ye Ming, saying, "Ye Ming, this lady also has a skin allergy like us. She just heard about our situation and wants your help."

Lin Huijia.

Ye Ming looked at the lady wearing sunglasses with a puzzled expression and asked, "Are you from Taiwan?"

Lin Huijia smiled and said, "Mr. Ye, you have a good eye. I am from Taiwan."

At that moment, Ye Ming felt as if a tornado had just swept through his mind, leaving him in a mess.

Lin Huijia, this name might not be remembered by many people now, but Ye Ming knew very well that Lin Huijia had a super famous director behind her.

Li An

【The Wedding Banquet】, 【Eat Drink Man Woman】, and 【Sense and Sensibility】 established Li An's position as an international top director.

Of course, there were also later works like 【Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon】, 【Brokeback Mountain】, and 【Life of Pi】.

Ye Ming calmed himself down and said, "Because I am an actor, currently shooting a drama by Aunt Qiong Yao, many of my friends and staff are from Taiwan. My friend Lin Xinru is also from Taiwan, so she could tell that you are from Taiwan. To be honest, the weather in the capital city is not very suitable for skin care."

Lin Huijia, who had been troubled by the allergy, said, "Yes, I didn't expect this. I heard that Mr. Ye knows an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor who can quickly solve the allergy problem. Could you help me meet him? I also want to see the old doctor."

The old doctor was a fictional character, so he couldn't be revealed.

Therefore, Ye Ming said hesitantly, "The old doctor is quite eccentric and doesn't like to meet strangers. He also doesn't treat people easily because he practices medicine illegally without a license."

At this point, Lin Huijia said with some disappointment, "That's really a pity. Talented people often have peculiar temperaments. I guess it's a case of having no fate with the old doctor. I don't know when this skin allergy will get better. My wedding anniversary is coming up, and I really don't want to see my husband with this appearance."

Her tone of disappointment was as if one could hear her heart breaking.

Ye Ming thought for a moment and said, "If Ms. Lin hopes to treat her skin allergy, you don't need to see the old doctor directly. When I saw him yesterday, I bought four facial masks out of fear of any accidents. My friend used three, and one is left."

Lin Huijia immediately became very happy and said, "Really? It seems my luck is not bad. How much does it cost, Mr. Ye? Just tell me, I won't haggle."

Ye Ming pretended to take something out of his pocket, actually clicking the confirmation button on the system to buy a bottle of 【Instant Effect Mask】.

And he said without hesitation, "The price is a bit high, 5,000 yuan."

Since Zhao Wei and the others were his friends, the money didn't matter much.

But Lin Huijia was different. For someone as proud as her, if you gave it to her for free, it would certainly cause her to be offended. It was better to directly state the price.

Looking at the mysterious green light in the jade bottle, Lin Huijia said very happily, "5,000 yuan is not expensive, even 10,000 yuan would not be expensive. Thank you, Mr. Ye, for your help. Although I am from Taiwan, I now live in the United States. If you have the chance to go to the United States, you can visit me, and I will treat you well."

To Lin Huijia, 5,000 yuan was not much at all.

When giving the money, Ye Ming only accepted 800 US dollars and said, "The price I mentioned is not in US dollars. If it were in US dollars, 800 would be about right."

This made Lin Huijia even more convinced that Ye Ming was a person of high moral character, which was rare in the entertainment industry.

Ye Ming then told Lin Huijia the precautions, especially that the shelf life was only two days left, and he repeatedly emphasized that using it at night would be better.

After sending Lin Huijia away, the expert excitedly grabbed Ye Ming and said, "Mr. Ye, there are such capable old traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the capital city, and I really have no chance to meet them. I wonder if Mr. Ye can help introduce me."

Ye Ming firmly shook his head and said, "I'm really sorry, the old man doesn't like to meet outsiders, and I've already explained the reason. I really can't help with this."

The expert was still a bit reluctant and said, "Well, do you have any more of that facial mask, Mr. Lin? If you do, can you give me a bottle? The price is negotiable, I can pay 10,000 yuan."

The expert was still very interested in the magical facial mask because he had seen its amazing effects and wanted to study it.

Ye Ming shook his head even more and said, "I'm really sorry, I only bought four bottles, and there are no extras."

Although Ye Ming said this, the expert still said with reluctance, "That's really a pity. By the way, here is my business card. My name is Yun Zhonglong, you can call me Brother Long. If you have the chance to visit the old doctor in the future, please buy a bottle for me. This 10,000 yuan is a deposit, and I will give you more when the task is completed."

Seeing that Ye Ming was still a bit hesitant, Yun Zhonglong extended an olive branch, saying, "Brother Ye, don't hesitate. I know quite a few people in the entertainment industry, and I might be able to help you in the future. If you help me with this, I will remember you."

Of course, there was also a hidden threat in his words: if you don't agree, I can't guarantee that I won't make things difficult for you.

At this point, Ye Ming finally nodded and agreed to give him a bottle of the mask when the opportunity arose, as the three days would be over, and he wouldn't be able to study it anymore.

Since the allergy issue was resolved, the remaining problems were not really problems, and they could enjoy a tour of the capital city. It was a rare holiday, and not coming out to relax would be a waste.

In the afternoon, Ye Ming received a notification that his song had been selected for the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.

This meant that Ye Ming would appear at this year's Mid-Autumn Festival Gala.

The stage of the National TV Station finally gave Ye Ming the opportunity to break through the newcomer wall.

At this moment, the three flowers of "Return of the Condor Heroes" were attacking a pile of delicious food, such as roast duck, braised chicken, French fries, and chicken nuggets.

They were determined to make up for the loss in Chengde.

The food on the set was like a return to the pre-liberation era.

Hearing this news, Zhao Wei said immediately, "Congratulations, Ye Ming. Having the opportunity to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala will be a significant addition to your resume."

At least in the mainland, the National TV Station was still the undisputed leader, unlike the future where other channels like Hunan TV and Jiangsu TV challenged its dominance.

The National TV Station was the goal that all artists aspired to.

Fan Binbin also said, "Brother Ming, take me with you. I've never been to the National TV Station. I can be your assistant. All stars need assistants, right, Sister Wei?"

A hint of jealousy flashed in Zhao Wei's eyes. As a film school student, she understood what this opportunity meant for Ye Ming.

Millions of people try to break through the newcomer wall, but how many can actually succeed?

Zhao Wei said noncommittally, "You little girl, we'll see if you have the time. Do you think the production team will let you go easily? Ye Ming, I think we should go back and tell the production team about this as soon as possible. It would be inappropriate to wait until tomorrow."

Newcomers have their own rules, which no one can change.

So, Ye Ming took the three flowers of "Return of the Condor Heroes" and quickly returned to the production team.

They finally arrived at the production team before dinner. Since the main actors were not present, the production team did not schedule any shooting tasks for the evening, so they had a rare on-time dinner.

Ye Ming found Chao Guoli, who was sitting on a box eating a box meal.

At that moment, she was eating while directing some staff to move things. When things got urgent, she would rush over and kick a few times.

She was a real tough woman, a pure man.

In the production team, generally speaking, from the director to the temporary workers, everyone ate box meals, which was an unwritten rule.

Seeing Ye Ming and the three flowers of "Return of the Condor Heroes" return, Chao Guoli's eyes widened in disbelief, and the box meal in her hand fell to the ground with a thud.

Chao Guoli, holding her chopsticks, with rice still in her mouth, stared at Zhao Wei and the others with eyes as big as copper bells and said, "You actually got better? How did you do it?"

After all, Chao Guoli was an experienced person in the industry and a woman, so she knew very well that this kind of skin allergy, if controlled within three days, was already a miracle, and to be completely cured was almost impossible.

If Chao Guoli hadn't seen the changes in the three flowers of "Return of the Condor Heroes" in less than two days with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed that this was happening right in front of her.
