Chapter 38: The Finale Banquet
After filming the last few major scenes, the movie is finished. The crew held a finale banquet, still maintaining a low-key style, and did not invite the media, only the cast and crew. Tang Qin, Xin Cen and several leading actors were arranged at the same table, and although Lin Shujun was only a cameo, he was still invited. Shen Po and Xin Cen were late, and the others could only chat and wait, but Lin Shujun opened a bottle of red wine first and poured himself a drink.
Tang Qin happened to be sitting next to Lin Shujun, and when she saw Lin Shujun drinking non-stop, she took the initiative to talk, "Teacher Lin, Sister Meng Xin came to visit the class, why didn't she come?"
"She went back early if she had something to do," Lin Shujun took another sip and laughed, "Otherwise, how could I drink so freely?"
"Teacher Lin, Sister Meng Xin said that she especially likes when you don't drink. Tang Qin reminded Lin Shujun in a low voice.
Tang Qin mentioned Meng Xin, but Lin Shujun didn't care, "Tang Qin, you are a good actor." Meng Xin was just afraid that I would drink and make trouble, and wanted to control me. ”
Tang Qin didn't want to meddle anymore, she felt uncomfortable when she heard this. Lin Shujun was a little drunk, and she simply said frankly: "I don't want to be a good actor anymore." ”
Lin Shujun laughed, "It's hard to hollow yourself out." ”
Tang Qin looked at Lin Shujun, and suddenly had an idea, Lin Shujun's acting skills are good, which is a box office guarantee, which he hollowed out himself in exchange for every play. To show the inside in front of the public again and again, this feeling Tang Qin felt exhausted just thinking about it, no wonder Lin Shujun wanted to anesthetize himself with alcohol.
"Mr. Lin, you are so dedicated. Tang Qin resumed his polite attitude at the beginning.
Lin Shujun continued to drink and entertain himself. Tang Qin walked to another table and chatted with the senior executives of the film and television companies involved in the investment.
Shen Po and Xin Cen came late, and their faces were not very good. The director and the leading actors have arrived, and the finale banquet can finally begin. Shen Po only briefly thanked the whole crew for their hard work, and then the finale banquet began. Tang Qin chatted with the investor hotly, Xin Zhi wanted to pull Xin Cen over, but Xin Cen was reluctant. Xin Zhi looked at Tang Qin, and then at Xin Cen, and could only sigh helplessly.
Xin Cen was unwilling, Xin Zhi went over by herself, and sure enough, she heard Tang Qin talking to investors about follow-up cooperation. Taking advantage of the investor's departure, Tang Qin asked Xin Zhi: "Where is Xin Cen?"
As soon as Xin Zhi turned her head, Xin Cen's seat was already empty, and she was a little annoyed, "I don't know where to run." ”
Tang Qin returned to his table, Lin Shujun was already drunk, and Lin Shujun's assistant was anxiously trying to help him up, but Lin Shujun didn't cooperate at all.
Tang Qin walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
The assistant replied, "There is still work tomorrow, and we have to rush back to the city now." ”
"Oh, then I'll help you. Tang Qin wanted to help hold Lin Shujun, but he was also thrown away.
Luckily, the other tables were noisy, so no one noticed the movement. Tang Qin wanted to find his assistant to come over to help, but he didn't see her, so he had to call Qian Wenyu over, and the three of them laboriously helped Lin Shujun out of the banquet hall. The car stopped on the side of the road at the back door, Tang Qin helped Lin Shujun into the car, Lin Shujun struggled to get down, and the assistant pulled inside before rushing out. Tang Qin got into the car, the assistant hugged Lin Shujun, and she helped buckle the seat belt. Seeing that Lin Shujun couldn't make a fuss, Tang Qin got out of the car with peace of mind and walked back with Qian Wenyu.
"If you drink alcohol, you can't control yourself, so sooner or later something will happen. Thinking of just now, Qian Wenyu couldn't help but shake her head and sigh.
"Maybe it's bitter. Tang Qin replied casually.
"Also, I heard that he and Meng Xin have too many different personalities and often quarrel, and the family is not going well. ”
The two of them chatted while walking, and when they were about to walk to the pool, Qian Wenyu suddenly said, "Is that Xin Cen and investors?"
Tang Qin looked, the two of them stood by the pool, and the investor put his arm on Xin Cen's shoulder.
Qian Wenyu suddenly looked at Tang Qin with a smile, "Xin Cen didn't see anyone all night, so he was chatting here privately." ”
Tang Qin didn't answer, just kept looking in that direction. The investor wanted to get closer, but Xin Cen dodged for a while, and suddenly someone walked out quickly behind him and kicked the investor into the pool without hesitation.
With a muffled sound, Tang Qin and Qian Wenyu gasped in unison.
"That's ...... Director Shen, right?" Qian Wenyu asked uncertainly.
"Hmm. Tang Qin nodded.
"The movements are really clean. Qian Wenyu couldn't help but sigh. Shen Po, who seemed to be polite, actually kicked over someone stronger than him in person.
Tang Qin and Qian Wenyu didn't stay long, and walked back to the banquet hall on a detour. They sat down as if nothing had happened, but only a moment later there was a commotion in the banquet hall. The farce just now is not over, the investor called the police and is making noise in the hotel lobby. Investors have been scolding and scolding, and have kept saying that they want Shen Po to pay for his violent behavior. When the police arrived, the investor immediately said that Shen Po had beaten him and that all of them were his witnesses.
Shen Po didn't speak at first, and the police came to Shen Po to verify the situation after listening to the informant's statement.
"This man did something to a lady, and I couldn't see it stopping it. Shen Po said calmly.
"If you kick me, it's violence. Investors shouted.
Shen Po ignored him, "Comrade police, the hotel is monitored, if necessary, you can take it to collect evidence." ”
The investor's face froze when he heard this, and he suddenly said to the police: "I am willing to settle." ”
There was a big fuss, and the finale banquet was over. Tang Qin and Qian Wenyu looked at each other, and the others didn't know who a lady in Shen Po's mouth was, but the two of them knew it.
Tang Qin and Qian Wenyu returned to the room, the things inside had been packed up, and Qian Wenyu only remembered at this time, "Where did Mimi go, she couldn't find anyone when she was leaving." ”
Tang Qin didn't care about this, she left Qian Wenyu in the room, and went to Xin Zhi's room to say goodbye. As soon as Xin Zhi opened the door, Xin Cen's voice came from inside.
"I'm going!"
Tang Qin looked at Xin Zhi in surprise, and Xin Zhi smiled reluctantly, "Come in." ”
Xinzen paced around the room, "I'm going down, what if I don't embarrass that bastard?"
"Shut up. Xin Zhi said sharply to Xin Cen.
Tang Qin's face was embarrassed, "What's wrong?"
Xin Cen was still very anxious, "My sister won't let me go downstairs. ”
Xin Zhi glared at Xin Cen and said to Tang Qin, "Don't pay attention to her when she is sick." ”
Tang Qin smiled, "You guys didn't go down, Director Shen downstairs has already made it clear to the police, it's all gone, Director Shen should go back to the room." ”
Xin Cen and Xin Zhi were both stunned, Xin Cen immediately ran to the door, and this time Xin Zhi did not stop her.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Xin Zhi suddenly sat down on the chair, as if she had collapsed. She looked up at Tang Qin, "Sit down." ”
Tang Qin sat down beside Xin Zhi, and Xin Zhi immediately sighed to herself, "I'm too difficult." ”
Thinking that Tang Qin was still by her side, Xin Zhi smiled and said, "Don't get me wrong, Xin Cen is very simple, not for the sake of drama." ”
"I know that Xin Cen and Director Shen have known each other for a long time, and Director Shen told me. Tang Qin said naturally, "And Director Shen and Xin Cen are so professional, they won't have any messy things." ”
"It's good that you understand. Xin Zhi said.
"Sister Xin Zhi, it's finished, I'll leave tomorrow. Tang Qin changed the subject.
Xin Zhi looked at Tang Qin, "Well, we'll leave tomorrow too." ”
Tang Qin smiled, "I'm very happy to meet you while filming this scene." ”
Xin Zhi also smiled, "There is no harm if there is no comparison, and I don't want to take Xin Cen anymore when I see you." After speaking, Xin Zhi was a little lonely, because it was impossible.
Xin Zhi looked at Tang Qin thoughtfully, "Are you going to take over the play or rest after you go back?"
"Me?" Tang Qin hesitated, "Let's rest first, and then take care of other work." ”
