Chapter 868: She doesn’t know the blessings when she’s not there
When it was almost time for dinner, Lao Zhao had just entered the house at noon, and everyone was getting ready to go for dinner.
To be honest, there are a lot of people. Although it seems more intimate to cook at home and treat guests to dinner, it is not necessary.
But the restaurant we booked is not too far away.
Just here in Xiangshan.
Neither Deng Chao nor Huang Xiaoming had any objections to this arrangement.
First of all, although they are stars, none of them have ever been on the set and had a box lunch.
Secondly, Xiang Yang and his mother both sat down to eat. Where did they go so noblely?
The most important thing is that both Su Chang and Liu Qianqian have a good relationship, and they both know that what they eat today is not important.
The key is whether you come or not.
Just like Hugo.
The reports on the Internet about his being banned are well-founded, but today, just look at Xiangyang’s kind attitude when chatting with him.
There is no need to say anything else.
In fact, the key to ‘banning’ is whether it is for a person or an issue.
Within a few minutes, photos of their party were posted online.
So many celebrities showed up at once, whether in the restaurant or on the road, it still attracted the curious and inquiring eyes of many young people.
The one who responded quickly was, of course, taking out his cell phone to take a photo.
"It seems that after today, this restaurant will have a prosperous business." After entering the box, Xiang Yang couldn't help but smile while inviting everyone to take their seats.
Just now, the owner of this store took Huang Xiaoming and the others for a group photo.
He doesn’t know if this boss knows how to use social networks to attract business for himself, but he looks at it from the perspective of an ordinary boss.
Whenever you enter a restaurant and see a few photos of the owner posing with celebrities hanging on the wall at the door, you can't help but feel a little high.
Of course, there are also many people who curse and walk out after eating.
"Brother Yang, why don't you take a group photo?" Among those present, except for Lao Zhao, Liu Qianqian, and Bea Shaffer, Su Chang and Xiang Yang have met the most.
As soon as she finished speaking, the others couldn't help but look towards Xiang Yang.
“I am being dragged to be your photographer.” Xiang Yang, who was in a good mood, was particularly talkative and gave Liu Qianqian enough face in front of her friends.
They were all visiting this restaurant for the first time, and the boss was of course more interested in them.
As for him.
"Hurry up and sit down, you are all hungry. You young people can have a good chat after eating." Old Zhao smiled and called everyone to their seats, "Come on. "Sissi, you stay with your friend, Schafer, you sit next to Auntie."
It didn’t matter whether Bea Schafer understood or not, Lao Zhao directly asked her to accompany him.
I didn’t think much about it on the way here.
After entering the box, what she was most worried about was the foreigner who had been with her son for who knows how long, but could only say "thank you".
"It would be great if Little John was here." Seeing her smiling at him, not knowing whether she understood what she meant, Old Zhao couldn't help but sigh.
If you say this, let Liu Qianqian and Xiang Yang hear it.
That will definitely make you laugh like crazy.
"Why are you still here with a kettle?" She was a little surprised when she saw Xiang Yang passing by her with a kettle in his hand.
"Ah, this is specially prepared by your precious daughter-in-law."
After Xiang Yang said with a smile, he asked Hu Ge, Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao to sit down next to him, as for Liu Qianqian.
On the left is Su Chang and on the right is Yang Baobao.
Not even two minutes after everyone sat down, and before the chairs were warmed, there was a knock on the door of the box from outside, and the boss walked in with a cheerful face, carrying tea.
Although the boss received a call yesterday and asked someone to prepare a few bottles of good Maotai, he didn’t order any.
But fortunately, he was more thoughtful and found some good tea.
"Come on, let me pour the tea for everyone first, and the cold dishes will be served soon." The boss is also a smart person, and he took the initiative to take over the business in the box.
"Boss, you are too polite, we can do it ourselves." Liu Qianqian stood up without any explanation.
The hostess's attitude was such that even Lao Zhao almost didn't know how to praise her in his heart.
"Sit down, we will do it ourselves." Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao, who were relatively close to the boss, stood up from their seats in a swish.
Hu Ge was being pulled by Xiang Yang to chat and wanted to get up.
Seeing him smiling awkwardly at himself, Xiang Yang smiled and said: "Just be casual, no need to be so polite."
"That's not true."
First time Hu Ge, who was attending the party, pursed his lips.
He was a little surprised that Xiang Yang was so polite to him.
"Young man, I have watched the TV series between you and Sissi. It was very good." Old Zhao was also particularly concerned about the young man he met for the first time today.
“Auntie, you’re watching too?”
Hu Ge was surprised.
These words surprised him even more.
Huang Xiaoming, who was pouring tea for several people with a teapot, said jokingly: "Auntie, if you say that, then I will be jealous."
"Hey, where are you talking about? I also watched "The Condor" that you and Sissi filmed."
"Auntie, do you prefer watching "The Legend of Sword" or "The Legend of God"? "Diao"? "If there is a lively place, Deng Chao is definitely indispensable.
Before Lao Zhao could speak, Liu Qianqian answered quickly: "My mother-in-law likes to watch it."
Yes, they all like it.
I won’t give you a chance to compete for favor in front of my mother-in-law.
"Haha, Sissi is right, I like to watch them all." Old Zhao also pretended to be making these young people happy. To say that she likes ancient puppet shows is pure lies.
Whether it is "The Immortal Sword" or "The Divine Condor", she is always a backup.
As for whether to finish watching or not.
It can be seen from the fact that she likes to talk to Deng Chao more at the dinner table. Like Lao Xiang, she still prefers "Happiness is Like a Flower" Just like children."
After all, for people of her generation, this kind of drama seems more immersive.
When Deng Chao said that his "YA Love" was going to be released to the public, he naturally asked a few more questions.
Such differential treatment made him the most active at the dinner table, almost stealing the jobs of the waiter and restaurant owner.
"You guys have fun in the afternoon. I'll take my mother to work and then go do something else." After finishing the meal and settling the bill, Xiang Yang and Liu Qianqian warned.
"What are you busy with?"
"Go to the store here and have a look. You have to pretend." Xiang Yang said with a smile.
What else could he do? Although everyone enjoyed the meal and Tian'er was chatting well, they were not in the same circle after all.
They were talking about movies, but he couldn't get anything in to say.
As soon as he spoke, they all stared at him again.
If this was done to others, they would definitely think it was a very honorable thing, and they would want to brag about it in a big book.
But Xiangyang doesn’t think so.
It’s really staged, do you need to find a few actors to coordinate it?
"Then you come back early in the evening."
"Okay, I'll say hello to them." Xiang Yang nodded.
"I'll accompany you."
"I'm sorry, everyone, I received an email about the FILA advertisement this morning. I have to deal with it here." You can feel free to do it with your wife. It was okay to find an excuse to leave, but in front of her friends, Xiang Yang still explained it.
You are the host, and you must have a suitable reason for leaving. Save them from overthinking.
"Brother Yang, hurry up and get busy. We're sorry for wasting your time all morning." After hearing that it was about advertising, or from FILA, Huang Xiaoming and the others I can understand that too.
The publicity campaign for coconut shoes is so big now, and they are not fools.
"That's alright, wife, just take the trouble to help me." Xiang Yang smiled and nodded to a few people, and then looked at Liu Qianqian dotingly.
These words made Liu Qianqian feel proud.
"Just hurry up and get busy."
As soon as he left, don't say anything, the atmosphere immediately became more relaxed.
"Let's go to the coffee shop together. Yesterday, Xiangyang went to the store to say hello." Liu Qianqian said, pulling a few people to go there.
Yang Baobao first glanced at Huang Xiaoming, saw him nodding, and quickly came to Liu Qianqian's side, "Sister Qianqian, thank you."
"Why are you thanking me?" Liu Qianqian was surprised at first, and then pursed her lips helplessly.
She finally knew why Xiang Yang ran away.
"You're talking about "Summer Fun"." She smiled and said to Yang Baobao, "You are Brother Xiao Ming's girlfriend. If there is such a good opportunity, I must help you fight for it."
"Sissi, thank you." Huang Xiaoming wanted to say something, but felt it was unnecessary.
"Brother Xiao Ming, please stop being so polite." Liu Qianqian waved her hand. She didn't expect Mr. Xiao from DMG to be so easy to talk to.
"I'm not saying this politely."
Huang Xiaoming laughed.
DMG’s Mr. Xiao and Han Sanping are as good as wearing a pair of pants. This company started out in advertising and public relations, and has also participated in several film investments in North America.
The reason why people agreed to contact her first with just a phone call was not for Liu Qianqian’s sake.
"But whether you can win this role depends on yourself." Liu Qianqian said suddenly. She learned a lot from the experience, but she didn't make any guarantee on this matter.
"That's that." Huang Xiaoming nodded and said seriously to his girlfriend: "You have to be well prepared."
"I know."
Yang Baobao laughed so happily that he died .
As for the words hidden in the two people's words, no one can guarantee how much she can hear.
But Hu Ge next to him understood.
On the way to the coffee shop, he also found an opportunity to chat with Liu Qianqian for a few words. When they talked about this matter, Su Chang said something.
She personally participated in the interview.
Even a bystander has a say.
"To be honest, I think Hu Ge is more suitable for this role than Wen."
"Actually, I think so too." Liu Qianqian thought about it and agreed with this view, especially Hu Ge made a special trip to the Northwest to understand the local customs and customs.
Result
"By the way, Uncle Xiaoyao, you can give "Blood Battle at Wenshan Pass" a try." Thinking of this movie, Liu Qianqian's eyes suddenly lit up.
This movie does not have a penny invested by Hermès Film Investment Company.
No matter how domineering Xiangyang is, he will not interfere with other people's investments.
Besides, he was only targeting the Tang people, not Hu Ge.
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten this too." However, her words reminded others, and Deng Chao couldn't wait to express his intention to audition for this movie.
And he was very convincing.
"When I see Aunt Zhao next time, maybe we can have more chats, haha."
"Okay, Deng Chao." Huang Xiaoming had been staring at this before After hearing what he said about the movie, he immediately laughed and said:
“Today, Sissi’s mother-in-law has the most interesting chat with you, and you’re not satisfied yet.”
Contented?
Deng Chao shook his head.
This has nothing to do with the word contentment.
“I heard that China Film Group is going to make great efforts this time, and even the consultants for the shooting team are specially invited from Spielberg’s team.”
Paused. , Deng Chao looked at Liu Qianqian and asked: "Qianxi, is this true?"
"It's true."
Liu Qianqian didn't hide it either.
In order to prepare for the filming of this drama and truly restore the war scenes at that time, not only did we work hard on the transformation, but the production cost of the war scenes was also very scary.
In particular, the proportion of the budget spent on real-life shooting and a large number of special effects shots is a bit surprising.
Even Mr. Wang from Guangmao and Mr. Yu from Bona scratched their heads and joked that this time they let China Film fall into trouble.
"So much money?!"
Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao, who had just participated in a large-budget production, were stunned when they heard that hundreds of millions would be spent on scenes in several war movies.
This money is enough to make a movie.
“So, in order to ensure that the shooting effect is not unexpected, Mr. Han insisted on inviting people from Spielberg’s team to participate.” Liu Qianqian said.
"That's true. Hollywood has more experience in this area." Huang Xiaoming nodded.
"This experience is also gained by burning money." Liu Qianqian curled her lips. She often accompanied her mother-in-law and father-in-law to watch their favorite TV series.
There is no need to deny the difference in scene.
In his husband’s words, self-deception is the worst form of inferiority.
There is no need to belittle oneself.
This kind of gap in the film industry can completely catch up.
If you shoot a lot, you will naturally know where you can save money and where you need to spend money.
When Spielberg was filming "Saving Private", the scenes on the beach cost 12 million US dollars. When it came to filming the scenes in "War Horse", he also saved a lot.
"Okay, I must fight for the role here." Hu Ge was tempted after hearing this. After missing an opportunity for transformation, he became more aware of how difficult it was to seize the opportunity.
"Don't worry, wait." Liu Qianqian glanced at Hu Ge.
She felt that if Hu Ge really wanted to attend, she would still say hello to Xiang Yang, just in case.
"Yes, that's right. When there is news, we can go to the audition together." Deng Chao, who was cautious, took the words with a smile.
After saying that, he directly changed the topic: "Sissi, I heard that your mother-in-law prefers watching TV series, but you are working so hard on movies, then you..."
"I think so."
How could Liu Qianqian not know that her mother-in-law likes TV series.
But
With a "Puch" sound, Su Chang laughed out loud.
"Why are you laughing?" Liu Qianxi turned her head and asked, staring at her friend.
Su Chang raised the corner of his mouth and said proudly: "Go buy me a cup of coffee, and I'll tell you why I'm laughing."
"I was going to buy it for you." Liu Qianqian I don't expect her to come up with any good ideas.
But if you think about it seriously, you’d better not know your blessings even though you’re in the midst of them.
TV series are different from movies.
If someone is really jealous, it cannot be coaxed by a cup of wolfberry soaked in brown sugar water.
