Chapter 116: Stormy, like a man (please subscribe!)

"Thank you, Director Chen, thank you, Manager Zhong..."

"Go back and study the script and characters carefully, and accept less shady advertisements. The company will not press you to pay back the money."

"Yes." Yang Mi looked embarrassed and nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, go out."

After Yang Mi left, a smile appeared on Zhong Lifang's serious face.

"She was so happy."

"It's not normal to be unhappy."

With that said, Chen Dong stood up and prepared to walk out.

Zhong Lifang also stood up and said, "Director Chen, this is your office."

"I know, I'm off work."

"..."

Although the news that Yang Mi got the starring role in "Painted Skin" did not spread to the outside world, Tang Yan and Zhang Songwen, who belong to the same company, learned about it immediately.

Both of them just felt envious in their hearts, and then continued to study their roles diligently.

After Director Chen Jiashang left Dongcheng Pictures, he did not return to Xiangjiang immediately, but went to Huayi again...

At the premiere of "The Night Banquet" held by Huayi on the 15th, Chen Dong met director Chen Jiashang again and learned that Huayi had won the role of the vixen for "Liao Xun".

"Director Chen, thank you!"

Seeing Wei Xun coming over to apologize to him, Chen Dong was a little confused: "I wonder where to start with this thank you, brother Xun?"

"Thank you, Director Chen, for helping Yifei reject Xiao Wei and giving me the opportunity to star."

"You're welcome. You are indeed more suitable than Yifei. If I were the director of this drama, I would also look for trouble."

"Really? Although I also know that Director Chen is telling the truth, I guess Yi Fei won't be too happy after hearing this, haha~"

"Isn't it because she's not here?"

"There's no guarantee that I'll tell Yifei a secret. Do you want Director Chen to bribe me?"

Chen Dong grabbed a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and said with a smile, "Do you want to bribe you with a handful of melon seeds?"

Chirping couldn't believe it, her eyes widened, but she was stunned for a moment and actually reached out to take it... But her hands were small, so she had to stretch out both hands to take it.

He didn't even eat a few, so he gave all the melon seeds to Ning Hao who came over, wiped his mouth casually, and ran to the stage to be interviewed by the media.

"Fengfenghuohuo, like a man."

Chen Dong heard Ning Hao's comment on the chirp and said with a smile: "If she hears it, she will have to fight with you."

Ning Hao thought about it and realized that his words were somewhat ambiguous, so he added: "I'm talking about character."

"That's true, otherwise we would all call her Brother Xun."

Chen Dong glanced at Ning Hao and saw that the guy had lost a lot of weight and looked darker. He joked: "It seems that your filming environment is quite difficult."

"Of course it can't compare to the film and television base, but the prairie has the beauty of the prairie. Director Chen can go and experience it when he has time."

"That's true."

Chen Dongdao: "How long will it take for your movie to be filmed?"

"It's finished."

"Finished?"

"Yes, it's been completed for three days, otherwise I wouldn't have time to attend this premiere... By the way, your sister Na still has a lot of space, you didn't get it?"

"Do you think I'll brush that?"

"It seems so."

While the two were communicating, Feng Xiaogang and Mr. Wang had already finished bragging to the media on the stage.

Soon, the lights at the premiere venue dimmed and the movie started playing.

"The Banquet" is adapted from Shakespeare's play "Hamlet", but it tells a Chinese story.

It also tells the story of the palace struggle during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. It mixes the elements of power, desire, humanity, love and death, presenting a complex story to the audience.

"What were Feng Xiaogang's expectations for the box office just now?"

"It seems like 2 million."

"Oh, Director Chen, do you think it can be achieved?"

"If it were folded in half, I think the hope would be greater."

"Haha, then Huayi is in trouble. If I remember correctly, the original investment in this film reached 1.2 million." After attending the premiere of "The Banquet", Chen Dong and Ning Hao left.

Chen Dong moved before, and Ning Hao and his wife did not come to the housewarming banquet, but today they will have a meal instead.

"What are you eating? It smells so good."

Liu Yifei came over with some food and a dog and a cat.

The cat was the calico cat, held in Miss Liu's arms, and the dog was the native dog, following behind. After entering the house, he recognized Chen Donglai and immediately ran to his feet, shaking his head and wagging his tail.

"The hostess is here." Xing Aina joked with a smile after seeing Liu Yifei.

In the past, Miss Liu would have blushed because of these words, but not now. She was probably quite happy.

"Director Ning, Sister Na, long time no see."

"haven't seen you for a long time……"

When Miss Liu came closer, Xing Aina's eyes fell on her and couldn't move away.

"What's wrong, Sister Na?"

"You don't seem to be wearing makeup..."

"Wearing a little light makeup."

"Then your skin is so good. It feels even more delicate and smooth than when you filmed "Xiu Chun Dao". How do you take care of it?"

"This..." Liu Yifei glanced at Chen Dong subconsciously. She was not shy just now, but now her ears turned red.

After all, Xing Aina was someone who had been there before, and she soon realized what was going on. She cursed Chen Dong in her heart for no reason, and glared at her man hatefully.

This meal was hot pot, and the four of them sat around the copper stove, eating and drinking while chatting.

When the topic of "Painted Skin" came up, Chen Dong spilled the beans and revealed that Chen Jiashang originally wanted Liu Yifei to play the female lead but was rejected by him.

Then Miss Liu suddenly stopped picking up the meat with her chopsticks, raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and stared at him.

"That character is a vixen and not suitable for you."

Chen Dong explained.

But this explanation was not what Ms. Liu wanted to hear.

"Still staring? Eat it quickly." Chen Dong put the piece of meat that Liu Yifei was planning to put into her bowl.

"I don't care, you owe me a role anyway." After saying that, the young lady lowered her head and took the piece of meat into her mouth in one gulp.

But it was too hot and I breathed while eating.

A cat and a dog squatting on the ground were also staring at her.

Listening to his girlfriend's obviously helpless words, Chen Dong just smiled helplessly and continued to chat with Ning Hao about the movie he was going to make next.

"You are looking for an actor who can play the professor... Where is Teacher Wang Zhiwen?" Ning Hao said.

"A bit younger." Chen Dong gave such a reason without much thought. Obviously, in his heart, there were other unsuitable reasons.

"Zhang Guoli?"

"Chen Baoguo?"

"Geyou?"

"Your teacher?"

"If you really can't find someone from Hong Kong, like Tony Leung Ka-fai, Andy Lau, Liu Qingyun..."

"Who are you talking about?"

"Liang Jiahui? Liu Dehua..."

"No, last sentence."

"If it doesn't work, you can find Hong Kong artists..."

"One more sentence."

"Your teacher."

Chen Dong slapped his thigh and said, "Haha, Teacher Wang is indeed more suitable. I have screened almost all domestic male actors before, but he was the only one who was missed."

"You call it darkness under the lamp." Liu Yifei added, looking like I'm very smart.

Chen Dong took out his mobile phone and thought about calling him immediately to ask, but before he dialed out, he put it away again. When he met three pairs of eyes, he explained seriously: "It's better to buy some gifts and go to the door to ask." suitable."

The three of them thought about it and nodded.

That’s the truth!
