Chapter 118: What if you are offended
"Sudden ......"
Li Tang drove his little white Chang'an to the door of the Shengqiang Hotel opposite Shengqiang Film and Television City.
This broken car may be in the maintenance cycle again, the exhaust pipe is a little loud, and there is blue smoke, it seems that there is still a little bit of engine oil, it seems that next time you have to do a big maintenance.
Because when it was finished before, it was time to say goodbye, Li Tang did not drive the car into the hotel parking lot, but just parked the car on the side of the road outside the door.
There are few cars in the parking lot, Wang Yan's exaggerated RV, including the temporary cars of several leading actors, are gone, maybe the crew has been disbanded, but Jiang Xuerou's Buick New Century is still there.
Li Tang called Jiang Qinqin, and Jiang Qinqin said that he would wait and come down immediately.
The girl said wait a minute, as long as the boy who has been in love understands, it may be ten minutes, it may be half an hour, and even more than an hour is not unusual.
Li Tang waited for almost half an hour before seeing Jiang Qinqin come out of the building, and Xiao Tang, the assistant behind him, pushed two large suitcases, and the two stood at the door and looked around.
"Here."
He hurried to catch up.
Jiang Qinqin, who took off her Republic of China costume, was wearing an off-white long down jacket, her hair was simply tied in a ponytail, but the air in front of her was carefully taken care of, her eyelashes were slightly curled, her lip gloss was attractive, and she was obviously wearing some light makeup.
Jiang Qinqin was very satisfied with his attitude today, and rarely gave a smile and said, "Wait, right?" ”
"No, no."
Li Tang shook his head with a smile, and took a box from Xiao Tang's hand to help push it.
"The car was parked at the door."
When the group of three walked out of the gate, they saw the small white Chang'an parked alone on the side of the road.
Jiang Qinqin and Xiao Tang were both stunned when they saw this.
"This is your car?" Jiang Qinqin couldn't believe her eyes.
"Yes, to be exact, I don't have a car, this is my restaurant's car, which I usually use to buy groceries."
Hearing that it was a grocery cart, Jiang Qinqin's face subconsciously showed disgust.
Li Tang was secretly proud when he saw this, he did it on purpose.
It stands to reason that he should have rented a better car to pick him up today. There are many black cars such as Santana 2000 and Nissan Blue Bird on the edge of my hometown, and it will cost at most 100 yuan to call one back and forth.
But he just drove the grocery cart at home, but out of politeness, before coming out, he deliberately drove Xiao Chang'an to the car wash, and let people scrub it inside and out, and clean it up.
"Whoa!"
When he opened the car door and moved his luggage into the car, Jiang Qinqin and Xiao Tang were even more dumbfounded, because the car was empty and there were no seats.
Xiao Tang finally couldn't help but say, "Where am I sitting?" ”
Li Tang looked apologetic, patted the suitcase and said, "Excuse me, sit on the suitcase." Soon, half an hour at most. ”
Xiao Tang glanced at Jiang Qinqin, pouting and looking speechless and aggrieved.
Jiang Qinqin frowned and said, "How can you sit on the box?" ”
Li Tang spread his hands and said helplessly: "Which of you can drive, or I will sit in the back." ”
“……”
Xiao Tang can't drive, and although Jiang Qinqin has a driver's license, she doesn't usually drive. If she drove an automatic transmission car, she would be afraid to sit on the simple hand-transmission bread in front of her, let alone let her drive.
Li Tang also carried another box into the car, and when he turned around and saw that they were silent, he opened the passenger door and urged: "Okay, make do with it, get in the car." ”
Jiang Qinqin looked reluctant and opened her mouth, but seeing that the car was quite clean, she finally didn't say anything and reluctantly got into the car.
Seeing that his boss got into the car, Xiao Tang had no choice but to get into the car aggrievedly and sit carefully on the recumbent suitcase.
Li Tang didn't have a good impression of this little Tang who often arranged himself behind his back, pointed to the back of the seat in front of him, and said, "Hold on, sit firm, be careful not to fall." ”
After speaking, he closed the car door with a "bang", ran to the side of the cab, opened the door and got into the car.
After getting in the car, he didn't forget to turn his head to Jiang Qinqin beside him and said, "Fasten your seat belt." ”
Jiang Qinqin thought about it too, and quickly fastened the seat belt.
Only then did Li Tang twist the key to start, skillfully put the gear, slowly loosened the clutch with one foot, stepped on the accelerator with the other foot, and slowly started the car.
What they didn't know at this time was that someone on the balcony of the top floor suite of the Shengqiang Hotel witnessed this scene from beginning to end.
Seeing the white van gone in the dust, standing on the balcony and smoking, Zhou Ping's smile overflowed, and then he snuffed out the cigarette butt and returned to the warm room.
In the room, Jiang Xuerou was sitting at her desk and working, seeing that it was about to be completed, and all kinds of expenses during the filming were summed up, not to mention tens of millions. The top priority now is to speed up post-production and sell the drama as soon as possible, so as to recoup the funds to develop the next project.
As soon as I looked up when I heard the movement, I saw the smile on my husband's face, and couldn't help but say, "What good things do you think of?" ”
"I just saw Li Tang take Shui Ling away."
Hey, Jiang Xue suddenly became interested, and hurriedly said, "You said that Li Tang took Shui Ling away?" ”
"That's right!"
Zhou Ping smiled: "Guess what kind of car did Li Tang drive to pick up Shui Ling?" ”
"What car?"
"It's the kind of seven-seater minivan, the kind that is very cheap, and Shui Ling was reluctant to ...... at first."
Jiang Xuerou's focus was different from that of her husband, and she interrupted: "Hey, how did you say they came together?" ”
"How did I know this, Shui Ling is so beautiful, there must be many people who pursue it."
In fact, Zhou Ping is still quite envious of Li Tang in his heart, after all, men like beautiful women, especially the best like Shui Ling.
"If they're really getting better, it's really good news."
Jiang Xuerou held her chin thoughtfully, but she quickly shook her head again, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that our drama focuses on Shui Ling and Wen Zhuo......"
The meaning is very simple, when a TV series is launched, it definitely needs a breaking point to attract the audience's attention, if Li Tang is the male protagonist, then the scandal between Li Tang and Shui Ling is undoubtedly a breaking point. But the current actor is Zhao Wenbei, not only to consider the obvious feelings of this kung fu, but more importantly, to consider the audience's acceptance.
After all, "New Cut Plum" is an adaptation, and Zhao Shijun played by Kou Shixun and Shen Xinci played by Shen Hairong in the old version of "One Cut Plum" left a deep impression on audiences on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and has a deep audience base.
And the reason why they chose "New Plum Cut" as the first TV series launched by the company after the establishment of Hainan Zhouyi is precisely in mind.
Zhou Ping walked to the sofa and sat down, picked up the coffee that had been cold on the coffee table and took a sip, shook his head and smiled: "Don't think about things so simply, even if Li Tang is the leading actor, I'm afraid he won't necessarily cooperate." He had an affair with Fan Binbin before, and later took the initiative to recommend Fan Binbin to us, which is enough to show that the relationship between the two is not simple......"
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and then said, "Oh yes, what do you think about Yue Siying's candidate?" ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Xuerou's mood of eating melons quickly subsided, and was replaced by a little headache, and said: "Mr. Wu of NEC recommended to us Cheng Hao, the spokesperson of their business pass. ”
"Cheng Hao?"
Zhou Ping was very unfamiliar when he heard this name.
She is a third-year student in the Department of Chinese Opera Performance, and in addition to being the image spokesperson of NEC Business Pass, she is also the location host of Phoenix Satellite TV's Chinese channel "Kyushu Le Xiaoyao". Last year, she also played the second female lead in the movie "That Mountain, That Man and That Dog", and her acting skills must have passed. ”
Of course, Zhou Ping knows that the movie "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" won this year's Golden Rooster Award for Best Feature Film and Best Actor.
However, an unknown junior can become the image spokesperson of NEC Business Pass, and Zhou Ping can think of the hook on his toes.
"Is there any specific sponsorship from the NEC?"
Jiang Xuerou shook her head, she mainly considered that NEC is a multinational company after all, and the annual advertising cost is not a small amount. It's just that "Li Wei as an Official" is a costume drama, and although NEC can't implant advertisements, it has a good relationship and has the opportunity to cooperate in the future.
Of course, Zhou Ping understood Jiang Xuerou's thoughts, and he pondered for a long time before saying, "NEC President Wu still pushed it." ”
Jiang Xuerou was inevitably a little surprised: "You mean to use Fan Binbin?" ”
Zhou Ping nodded and said, "Li Tang will know about the change of director sooner or later, maybe he will know it now." And Xu Zheng also talked to me about this yesterday, although he didn't say it explicitly, but he obviously leaned towards Fan Binbin. Li Tang must have communicated with him in advance. In any case, we must pay attention to Xu Zheng's opinion. ”
"Li Wei as an Official" was originally scheduled to be a senior director of Wanwan, and it was true that Zhou Ping said to Li Tang that the director's opinion should be considered. But then things changed, it may be the dumping of peers, Hainan Zhou Yiming and the director had a good talk, and they also reached a verbal agreement, but when the contract was signed, the director temporarily changed his mind and took on another play.
In desperation, they accepted the recommendation of screenwriter Liu Heping and found a young director from the mainland. To be honest, Zhou Ping was a little worried about the director. But after communicating with Xu Zheng several times, he found that Xu Zheng is a very thoughtful actor, and Xu Zheng himself is still playing the role of director in the drama center, so he intentionally wants Xu Zheng to participate in the director's work.
In this way, it can not only ensure the quality of the play, but also maintain the face of Mr. Liu Heping.
In fact, Zhou Ping stands from the perspective that he is a screenwriter, and the key to the play "Li Wei as an Official" is still on the character of Li Wei, as long as this character stands, then this play has been more than half successful.
Therefore, he must sell Xu Zheng's noodles, and at the same time befriend Li Tang, and from the perspective of an actor, Fan Binbin is obviously more well-known than Cheng Hao, and many factors are cumulative, of course he chooses to use Fan Binbin.
"But aren't we offending Mr. Wu in this way?" Jiang Xuerou said worriedly.
Zhou Ping smiled coldly and said: "What is there to offend, if you want the role of the female number one without pulling out a dime, your appetite will inevitably be too big." And even if you offend, what can you do? It's just a comprador. ”
