Chapter 21: Nail in the coffin

Imperial capital, a hotel.

Wang Dan and Su Mu, under the leadership of Miss Yingbin, smelled the faint sandalwood and came to the reserved box.

At the door of the box, Su Mu took a deep breath and adjusted his mood.

The feeling of coming to the banquet this time is like going to the drama cool interview that day, on the surface it is very calm, but in fact, I am still a little nervous in my heart.

In the final analysis, in his previous life, he was just a small role in a few unknown TV series, and then he quit the entertainment industry because he couldn't get along, and he didn't eat with the bigwigs in private at all.

And this time I want to meet Meijin Film and Television, that is, several important figures of Xinli Media in the future, it is false to say that I am not nervous.

But nervousness is nervous, he didn't have the slightest panic, after all, Wang Dan is here, he is a small follower at this dinner, just do his own thing, and it is not his turn to communicate.

Pushing open the door, there were four people sitting inside, namely Wang Ziwen, president of Meijin Film and Television, producer Liu Jiang, directors Teng Huatao and Chen Sicheng, and several people were chatting and laughing.

Cold dishes had already been placed on the table in front of them, and everyone had not moved their chopsticks yet, and when they heard the sound of pushing the door, they all looked in the direction of the door.

At this time, Wang Dan greeted him with a smile as he walked inside: "Ziwen, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm late, don't be surprised." ”

"It's not too late, it's just that a few of us came over early. With that, Wang Ziwen got up and hugged her, and then said, "The two of us haven't seen each other for more than a year, right? ”

"Okay, okay, President Wang's invitation, how dare I refuse. Wang Dan joked with a smile.

"Come on, you don't see me less, we don't have that kind of set between the two of us. Wang Ziwen pretended to pat her with blame, and then turned his head to introduce to several other people: "This is Wang Dan, my old friend, an important figure in the cool film and television of the magic capital drama." ”

"Producer Liu, Director Teng, Director Chen, hello everyone!" Wang Dan greeted warmly.

Seeing that her relationship with Wang Ziwen was so good, several people didn't dare to support it, and responded enthusiastically.

After the politeness, Wang Dan patted Su Mu's shoulder and said, "Let me introduce to you, this is my artist, and the only artist in our company, Su Mu, say hello to a few people." ”

Hearing her words, Su Mu hurriedly shook hands with several people one by one and greeted them with smiles.

Then, everyone sat down, and the dinner officially began.

After sitting down, Wang Dan filled his wine glass with wine, got up and said, "What about this glass of wine, I respect you, I'm really sorry for being late, I hope you will forgive me." ”

After speaking, he drank the wine in the cup.

In fact, the appointed time was six o'clock, and the two of them arrived at the hotel at 5:40, which was not too late.

It's just that after dinner, whoever arrives last will inevitably have to punish themselves for a drink.

After Wang Dan finished drinking, Su Mu immediately followed suit, as a junior, he didn't need to talk much, just drink with him.

So he punished himself with three cups, and each one was full, and he drank it cleanly, and he didn't spill a drop.

After drinking, he smiled at everyone and sat down again.

"Sister Dan, hurry up and eat food and press it. Wang Ziwen hurriedly sandwiched a few pieces of cold beef for Wang Dan, then looked at Su Mu again, and appreciated: "Su Mu is right, the amount of wine is good, but don't rush it like this, just drink a glass of meaning, don't be so serious." ”

If it was just a private meeting between her and Wang Dan, she would definitely not let Wang Dan punish him for drinking, after all, the two are real old friends.

It's just that there are other people on the scene, so the rules at these wine tables are still inevitable.

The effect was remarkable, and after the two were punished for drinking, the atmosphere in the box was much warmer.

When the hot dishes began, Wang Ziwen took the lead, and everyone had a drink together, and then chatted while eating.

Their topics were all about some things in the circle, and Teng Huatao chatted with Liu Jiang and Chen Sicheng about his newly released TV series "Look at This Family".

Wang Ziwen chatted with Wang Dan, mainly talking about their children's hobbies, cultural class results and other topics.

Two of you, you say, "My child is playful, not as good as the neighbor's child." I said, "Our children are too, the final exam scores are not in the top ten of the class, and the children in the neighborhood have all been in the top three." ”

In short, they are complaining that their children are not studying well, and Wang Dan occasionally brings a sentence of Su Mu, saying that he is diligent, sensible, and performs very well in the play, etc.

In this regard, he could only respond with a smile, after all, both of them are about to be in terms of age, and it is better for the seniors to speak, and the juniors should not interject.

"Ziwen, how is the preparation of the new drama in your company, and I still have the role of the third male for me, right?"

After chatting for a long time, Wang Dan finally brought the topic to "Love Story in the Imperial Capital", she didn't ask Chen Sicheng, after all, Chen Sicheng is also a rookie director and has no right to speak.

This kind of thing is still up to Wang Ziwen.

Moreover, Wang Ziwen does not particularly trust Chen Sicheng, otherwise he would not have invited Teng Huatao to be the producer, for fear that the investment would be wasted.

Hearing this topic, Su Mu also pricked up his ears and waited to listen to the following.

At present, the funds have been in place, and the crew is being prepared, with Producer Liu and Director Chen responsible for the role selection. Now the male characters have confirmed Director Chen and your family Su Mu, the female characters have determined Yang Mi and Tong Yaya, and the other roles are still to be determined, and filming is expected to start around December. ”

Wang Ziwen didn't hide it, and directly told Wang Dan about the progress, and the other people present didn't show any surprised expressions after hearing it, obviously Wang Ziwen had already communicated with them.

Hearing her words, Wang Dan also breathed a sigh of relief, although he had communicated on the phone before, it was more reassuring that he did not confirm it in person.

Now that Wang Ziwen said this in front of everyone, the role of Su Mu Nan No. 3 is a certainty.

After confirming it, Wang Dan turned his head to look at Chen Sicheng on the side, picked up a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Director Chen can direct such a big drama at a young age, he is really talented and has an unlimited future, I hope to take care of our family artists on the set in the future, I will toast you first." ”

Chen Sicheng hurriedly picked up a glass of wine and said modestly: "Sister Dan, you are exalting me too much, this is why Mr. Wang gave me a chance, plus the help of Director Teng and Producer Liu, I dare to take on this burden, how can I have any talent." ”

This sentence is indeed true, without Wang Ziwen, he really can't shoot this drama, although he is Huayi's person, but Huayi has never believed in rookie directors, and he won't give him this opportunity at all.

After a polite exchange, the two touched a glass and drank it all.

Su Mu nodded secretly on the side, Chen Sicheng would indeed come to something, and he would compliment a few other people first, which shows that this product can get out in the entertainment industry not only because of his talent, but also because of his ability to pat on the back.

Then, he filled Chen Sicheng with a glass, then picked up his wine glass and said, "Director Chen, I will toast you with a glass, and I will give you more advice in the future." ”

One thing to say, Chen Sicheng is his predecessor, he debuted early, he is also very well-known, and he is the director of this play, so there is nothing wrong with him toasting.

"Su Mu, you are very handsome, completely in line with the image of Wu Di in the script, I hope our cooperation will go smoothly. ”

"Thank you Director Chen for your compliment, I will work hard, and I will definitely not hold you back. ”

The meal lasted until more than ten o'clock, Su Mu didn't move his chopsticks much, and he didn't drink less wine.

Who let the few people here be all bigwigs and seniors, and each of them must toast a few glasses of wine, otherwise it will be rude.

Alas, when will you be able to get out of the way and become a first-line star, then it won't be so miserable.
