Chapter 29: The Director's Calculations
Hearing this, Li Ning laughed and picked up the wine and drank it by herself, without pouring her any more wine.
After a while, Li Ningyi was dizzy from drinking, pressing Yi Qiaoyi's shoulder and not letting go, shaking his body drunkenly.
"That's me...... That's not for ...... Let you drink, that's ...... In order to...... Communication, we have to exchange ideas, right? I see you're ...... on the script There was some confusion. β
Yi Qiao turned his head sideways, stared at Li Ning for a long time, and coldly pushed him away when he was burping.
She looked around with a cold face, spoke as slowly as possible, and picked up the bag very politely,
"Excuse me, I'll go to the bathroom."
Ignoring everyone's suspicious gazes, she strode away.
The director didn't mean to talk about the script at all, and the investors sitting in the corner even peeked at her a few times, and she naturally understood that this was no longer a simple dinner.
He patted the hem of his skirt lightly and tidied up his clothes.
Suddenly, she was jerked away, and a cold wind blew her skirt flying.
"Yi Qiaoyi? Sure enough, you're here. β
The voice of promise?
Hearing this, she raised her head quickly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, leaned against the wall suspiciously, and squinted at her.
What was the situation and how did she end up here.
"Promise! How did you end up here? β
Xu Promise stared straight at her and didn't say a word.
After a long stalemate, she sneered and walked towards the door.
She knew what she was here for.
Slowly walked in front of the promise
"You're here for a new role, promise, do you think you have this chance?"
When the words fell, Yi Qiao's expressionless face flashed with a faint smile, and there was a hint of murder hidden in his eyes.
Suddenly, Xu Promise reached out and grabbed Yi Qiaoyi's arm tightly like a small lotus.
"Yi Qiaoyi, do you think you can get such a role, just by virtue of your black material?"
Then, Xu Yu slammed Yi Qiaoyi's shoulder, pulled her in hard, and snorted coldly.
"Yi Qiaoyi, you and Zhang Shuhai are partnering to monopolize resources? It's a pity, in the end, can it be done by their own ability. β
Xu Promise shook his head proudly, stepped on his high heels, and walked into the box with a bewitching twist.
Yi Qiao drank not much wine, but she didn't have much alcohol, she gritted her teeth in front of the promise, her whole face was red, and she had to hold her hand and hold on to the wall to barely stand firm.
After promising to leave, Yi Qiao stretched his body and groped into the bathroom, and caught a glimpse of Promise hurriedly entering the box.
As soon as he walked into the private room, he quickly tidied up his clothes, looked around, and trotted briskly to Zhang Shuhai's side.
"Director Zhang, you're too uninteresting, why didn't you call me when you made an appointment with Yi Qiao for dinner, I just came cheekily when I heard others say that there was a dinner, you won't kick me out, right?"
With a smile on his face, Xu Promise walked cheekily to Li Ningyi's side, picked up the wine glass and naturally clinked glasses with everyone.
I didn't expect it to be promised to push the door and pick it up, Zhang Shuhai paused for a moment, immediately reacted, and got up with a smile.
"How come, this promise is also a very good performance, our play, the two heroines are very good, how can this dinner be without you, we are planning to call you!"
Zhang Shuhai skillfully played the round.
After Xu Promise laughed, he raised his head and took a sip of wine, still smiling on his face, unable to see his true thoughts.
"Then this is not a heart, you were about to call me, so I came first."
Xu Yu took the wine glass and walked happily to Li Ningyi's side.
Zhang Shuhai took the script that was originally given to Yi Qiaoyi on the table.
"Yes, yes, do you want to read the director's script too, I think there are still some roles in this that suit you very well."
When he saw the script, Promise's eyes were almost glued to the script, and he reached out to pick it up with a smile.
"The director knows me best, as long as it is a role that suits me, I will not refuse."
"Smack"
Li Ning drunkenly slapped the script on the ground and staggered at the promise.
"I don't have two heroines in this play, I only need one heroine."
Hearing this, Xu Yu put down the wine glass in his hand with some embarrassment and stepped forward to help him.
"Director, you don't have to be so absolute about choosing a role."
What's wrong with this guy, I don't want such a good person, could it be that I chose Yi Qiaoyi, a good-for-nothing guy.
Suddenly sitting in the corner, the businessman who was full of fat intestines and did not open his mouth licked his lips, and bent down to pick up the script on the ground and handed it to Xu Promise.
"I see this heroine to this actress and the actress just now, it's better for me to call the shots and see which of you two is more capable of being this heroine."
Li Ning stretched out his hand and snatched the script from their hands, and staggered to a wine burp.
"No, my drama is very rigorous, I don't choose the heroine so hastily, besides, Yi Qiaoyi is obviously more beautiful than her."
Hearing this, the fat and greasy boss touched his chin and looked at the promise with a smile.
"Pretty is pretty, but I don't think people mean that."
Li Ning was so drunk that he kept circling around the side, patting his chest and assuring investors.
"I promote them and give them a chance, but they don't have that meaning? How can there be such a ignorant person, you can rest assured that she will definitely agree. β
Hearing this, the investor with a fat brain raised his hand and put it on Li Ningyi's body, and whispered something in his ear.
"In that case, then I'll choose the beautiful one today, as long as I can see her in the room tonight, I can give you as much money as you want to invest, don't worry about the money, as long as it makes me happy."
Then, Li Ning nodded, drunk and dizzy, showing a clear expression.
"Don't worry, this character has such a good script, such a good role, and such a high salary, it is worthy of letting her accompany her, she will definitely agree, this circle, what is so high."
After speaking, Li Ning's drunken whole person fell on the table, shook his hand, and threw all the cups and dishes on the table on the ground.
Yi Qiaoyi was much more sober after washing his face with cold water in the bathroom, and walked to the door leisurely.
Pushing open the door, she just heard the conversation between the two, gritted her teeth, clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes were heavy, like a bottomless abyss.
"Peng"
Yi Qiao kicked the door one by one, his face was ugly and scary.
"I thought that this time everyone was here to talk about the script, it seems that I was naΓ―ve, no matter how good the script, no matter how good the role, no matter how high the salary, it can't let me work with people who don't have professional qualities."
After speaking, Yi Qiao walked quickly to the seat, took his bag and rushed to the door.
Li Ning staggered on the table drunk, and vaguely saw that there seemed to be a figure walking in front of him. Reaching out and grabbing Yi Qiaoyi's arm, he became more and more excited.
"Where are you going? We haven't finished talking yet, do you want to just shake your hands and leave? β
Yi Qiaoyi closed his eyes coldly and shook off his hand vigorously.
"Let it go, I don't need the role of a garbage director like you, and I don't need to work with a director like you, you want someone to have fun with, do you? I'm telling you you've miscalculated. β
"Knock"
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of pain in his head, and he slowly raised his hand and touched his head, and Yi Qiao saw that his hands were full of blood.
The whole head was dizzy, and it was like there was an echo in the head.
"You ......"
Then, before she could finish speaking, she fell straight down, her eyes black and unconscious.
Promise gasped violently, his hand clutching the teapot tightly.
"You can't blame me, don't blame me, really, director, she won't agree, if not, she won't agree, I'll help you."
Hearing this, Li Ning lost three points of alcohol, and looked at her coldly.
"You're so positive...... What do you want? β
Xu Promise threw the kettle directly to the ground and looked at him with a determined gaze.
"I want to participate in your new play, please give me a chance."
Hearing this, Li Ning looked at Yi Qiaoyi who saw the ground, turned his head to look at the investor, and then the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Whether this is successful or not depends on the situation, but since you are willing to help us, then I will naturally not forget your credit."
Isn't it, promising this smash will give the crew the funds in place.
As soon as Yi Qiao fainted on the ground, the investor looked at her with squinting eyes.
"So what are you waiting for? Bring someone to my room. β
Seeing that no one made a move, the fat man of the investor stepped forward impatiently, picked up Yi Qiao, and rushed out.
Seeing this, Zhang Shuhai slapped the table angrily, got up suddenly, and his slender body blocked in front of him, blocking the door.
"Wait a minute, this is not good, we are here to talk about cooperation, knock people out, it is illegal to do so."
The corners of the investor's mouth rose arrogantly slightly.
"But you must think clearly, if you stop me today, don't look for me for the funds invested in the future."
"Please put her down, these things are illegal."
Zhang Shuhai stubbornly refused to let go, with a gloomy and cold face, more determined than ever.
The fat boss directly knocked Zhang Shuhai away, hugged Yi Qiao and smiled obscenely.
"With your thin body, you can't stop me."
"Peng"
The door was kicked open, and the investor was kicked firmly in the stomach, and fell to the ground, and the fat man jumped up like thunder.
"Hey, which one doesn't have long eyes...... Gu Beiqing? Gu Shao...... How did you end up here? β
After seeing the person clearly, the fat man fell to the ground tremblingly, crawling backwards.
Gu Beiqing caught Yi Qiaoyi, who was thrown by the fat man, held Yi Qiaoyi's soft thin waist with his hand, and shook his head.
"Yi Qiaoyi, wake up, get me up quickly."
Gu Beiqing shook Yi Qiaoyi's body and gently stroked her face. Her hands were covered with blood from her head, and suddenly a nameless fire burned in her heart.
"Who is it? Who knocked her unconscious. β
The fat man trembled in fear, trembling nervously like a sieve.
"It's not...... I do not know. β
Gu Beiqing's eyes were full of dangerous fierceness.
"Don't know? It seems that you don't intend to open your mouth if you don't suffer something. β
After the words fell, Gu Beiqing turned around and nodded to the person next to him.
Two sturdy men in well-tailored black suits, stepping on the floor shook the sky, and walked over and twisted the fat man's arms.
The investor of the new drama twisted his entire arm behind his back, which was already deformed, and his facial features were wrinkled together in pain.
Gu Beiqing was like a devil from hell, without a trace of expression on his face, he stepped on him twice.
"Ask again, who knocked Yi Qiaoyi unconscious."
Everyone present held their breath, and they didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere.
After a long silence, the investor had the courage to speak.
"I ...... I don't ......."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Gu Beiqing directly threw the information in his hand to someone else's mailbox.
"It seems that I need to remind you that if I don't get an answer that I am satisfied with, then your life ......"
