The conspicuous bag in China Entertainment Taohuawu

Chapter 99 The heroine joins the group
As soon as Chen Xinghe sat down, Hou Hongliang also greeted everyone, asking everyone to be polite and casual.

It was almost 1 o'clock when Chen Xinghe arrived at the hotel. Everyone was hungry after waiting for so long, so they started eating without much greeting. Chen Xinghe felt a little sorry when he saw this, so he ate two bites of vegetable mats. After a while, he raised his wine glass and said to everyone:

"I'm really sorry to keep everyone waiting for so long. I'll punish myself with three drinks." After saying that, he drank three glasses of wine in a row.

Everyone saw his bold look and applauded him.

"Don't just eat, everyone. Xiao Chen supports setting an example, so everyone should show their support." Hou Hongliang watched Chen Xinghe finish the wine, then picked up the wine glass and looked at everyone on the table.

"Come, let's toast to the arrival of the male lead in our crew." Director Sun Molong also took this opportunity to say to everyone.

However, this noon dinner was just a small reception banquet for Chen Xinghe. Sun Molong didn't say anything more after picking up a glass of wine, and everyone started eating more casually.

After eating a few mouthfuls to fill their stomachs, everyone started talking more. Liu Yijun, who was sitting next to Chen Xinghe, was talking to him, "Xiao Chen, I had a lot of fun playing with you last time. I didn't expect it to be so good." We will meet again in this drama soon."

Chen Xinghe responded with a smile: "Uncle Liu learned a lot from you last time, and I hope it will be the same this time."

"You're just too humble, kid. Your acting skills are already very good. Why do you need me to teach you anything? If Yitong was half as good as you, I wouldn't have to worry so much." Liu Yijun also smiled, Then he sighed again.

"Yitong is already very good. You don't have to worry too much about him. Besides, I just met him a few days ago and he has already joined the set for filming."

"Okay, you are classmates. We will help each other more in this circle from now on." After Liu Yijun said this, he raised the wine glass in his hand and looked at Chen Xinghe.

He also quickly raised his wine glass, the two of them touched it slightly and drank it down in one gulp.

Afterwards, Huang Jue, Liu Tao and others also chatted with Chen Xinghe, and after eating, they all became quite familiar with each other.

Chen Xinghe also learned from the director that Zhao Jinmai would arrive on the set later in the evening, and everyone would have a script reading meeting in the evening, and filming would officially start tomorrow.

After the reception banquet, Chen Xinghe said goodbye to everyone and returned to his room.

Chen Xinghe, who was fine after taking a shower, chatted happily with Zhou Ming for a while, until she was urged by Tong Qing's crew member to end it.

With nothing to do, Chen Xinghe picked up the script of "The Beginning" that he had read countless times and started reading it.

To be honest, the filming of this drama was not very difficult. Most of the scenes were concentrated on a bus, and even the clothes basically did not need to be changed. If it were not for Noon Sunshine, it would be difficult to imagine how this drama would make money.

In fact, most crews that shoot urban dramas require sponsorship fees from sponsors, and many crews recover a large part of their production costs through sponsorship before the drama is sold.

This drama has simple scenes, almost unchanged costumes, and very few scenes of eating and drinking, so sponsorship is basically a no-brainer. The money you can make depends entirely on the quality of the script and the performance of the actors. Come support.

Looking at the script that he had memorized by heart, Chen Xinghe fell asleep unconsciously.

At 6:30 in the evening, Chen Xinghe was woken up by a call from his assistant Chen Shengnan. After answering the phone, he learned that the heroine Zhao Jinmai had arrived. Director Sun called everyone to have a casual meal together.

Chen Xinghe hung up the phone, simply packed up and went to the restaurant.

The lineup is similar to that at noon, but there are no drinks on the table. After all, there will be a reading meeting for the crew later.

As soon as he arrived at the dinner table, Zhao Jinmai greeted Chen Xinghe very politely: "Hello, Teacher Chen, I am Zhao Jinmai."

Chen Xinghe nodded and said hello to her. Although Zhao Jinmai was four years younger than him, he debuted ten years ago, so he was much older than him.

"Okay, now we have all the male and female protagonists. It's so good to see how talented and beautiful this young man is. If you didn't have a girlfriend, Xinghe, I would definitely act as a matchmaker for you two." Director Liu Hongyuan also made a joke. .

Chen Xinghe smiled and quickly waved his hand to say no. Zhao Jinmai also laughed. Although he was young, Zhao Jinmai had already filmed a kiss scene when he was 16 years old. Naturally, these little jokes would not make her feel bad. Kindly.

After dinner while chatting and laughing, everyone came to the hotel conference room to start a script reading session.

The so-called script reading meeting is that the actors, directors, screenwriters and staff gather together to read the script. Everyone reads and listens, raises any questions if they feel they have them, and discusses modifications together.

First, Zhao Jinmai read with great emotion: "Li Shiqing: I want to call the police. There is a bomb on the No. 45 bus. They are about to drive onto the cross-river bridge. The license plate number is A77651. You have to stop the bus quickly. There are other things on the bus. other passengers.

I just got off the bus, but there are still passengers in the car, and the bombs are still in the car. There are about seven or eight of them, but I can’t tell you the details. You have to stop the car quickly. It’s too late. My name is Li Shiqing and my contact information is this mobile phone number. "

Then Chen Xinghe did the same thing: "Xiao Heyun: I'm sorry, I, I just saw that your head was sweaty and I wanted you to wipe it. (Li Shiqing kept staring at Xiao Heyun), I didn't mean it, I just wanted to take this paper Then the USB flash drive itself was plugged in and I pulled it out and it slipped."

During the reading, everyone read their own scripts starting with the male and female protagonists. However, the quality of the Noon Sunshine script was very good and there was nothing that needed to be changed. After reading it once, everyone shared some of their personal feelings about the characters they played. As a result, this reading meeting for the crew is over.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone, please go back and rest early." Director Sun Molong stood up and said to everyone.

After everyone got up and said goodbye to each other, they each went back to their rooms to rest.

However, not long after Chen Xinghe returned to the room, she heard someone knocking on the door. When she opened the door, she saw Zhao Jinmai standing at the door.

"Teacher Chen, I haven't eaten enough tonight, so let's go have a midnight snack together. My assistant hasn't arrived yet, and I don't dare to go alone."

Seeing Zhao Jinmai looking at him pitifully, Chen Xinghe nodded in amusement. Because he slept before eating, he didn't eat much at night, so he happened to be a little hungry now.

Seeing him nodding in agreement, Zhao Jinmai instantly became happy. Although she was not the kind of beauty who looked stunning at first sight, she was really cute when she smiled.

"Wait for me while I change clothes." Chen Xinghe said to her.

Zhao Jinmai nodded after hearing this and had no intention of entering the room. Chen Xinghe closed the door, changed his clothes, put on a mask and hat, and called his assistant Chen Shengnan and asked her to call. The bodyguards Gao Shengqiang are together, after all, they are alone, although they have nothing.

Since the filming location was still some distance from the hotel, the crew also equipped the leading actors with nanny vans. Gold Sachs acted as the driver and drove the group away from the crew.

In the car, Chen Xinghe took the initiative to ask Zhao Jinmai, "What do you want to eat?" Zhao Jinmai stayed for a while after hearing Chen Xinghe's words. Maybe he thought of something delicious and waited for a while before chirping twice. He replied to Chen Xinghe and said, "How about barbecue? I really want to eat mutton skewers!"

She is also a foodie girl. Chen Xinghe commented on her in his heart, then smiled and took out his mobile phone to search for the best-rated barbecue restaurant in Xiamen. Then he showed the mobile phone to Gao Shangqiang and asked him to navigate there.

"Teacher Chen…"

"Don't call me Teacher Chen, just call me Brother Chen." As soon as Zhao Jinmai opened his mouth to say something, he was immediately interrupted by Chen Xinghe.

Zhao Jinmai nodded and continued: "Did you really design Brother Chen's blindfolded beating game? It was so interesting."

"It's true, but I accidentally saw a video in which a foreigner placed a house full of screaming chickens. It looked so funny when he stepped on them and kept squealing. That's why I came up with this idea."

"Oh, that's pretty awesome, and Brother Chen, are your skills really that good? Can I have a taste of your skills during filming?"

"The food I cook is okay, but it's not as exaggerated as they made it out to be. If I have the chance to cook a meal for you, it won't be such a problem."

"Great, then I'm looking forward to it."

Talking and laughing all the way, they arrived at a barbecue restaurant not far from the set in about ten minutes.

"Wow, there are so many people." Zhao Jinmai hesitated when he saw so many people in the store after getting out of the car.

Chen Xinghe also frowned. There were indeed too many people. Then he said to his assistant Chen Shengnan, "Sister Chen, please help me ask if there are private rooms in the store."

Chen Shengnan nodded and walked into the store. Soon she came back and shook her head with them.

"How about changing to another store." Zhao Jinmai said.

Chen Xinghe thought for a while, and it was good that there were more people. Everyone could see that they were just eating, so as to avoid anyone making trouble with them, especially since Gao Shangqiang had just reminded him that a car seemed to be following them.

Thinking of this, Chen Xinghe relaxed his frown and said to Zhao Jinmai, "Let's just eat here and ask the store to set up a table for me in a quieter place. Besides, we are just actors. Not afraid of people.”

After hearing what Chen Xinghe said, Zhao Jinmai thought for a while and agreed with Chen Xinghe. Yes, they are just actors. Why are they afraid of people? In addition, she has not experienced this feeling of eating food stalls for a long time. A particularly exciting feeling.

With Chen Shengnan's communication, a young woman who was pretty tall soon came to the two of them and looked at Chen Xinghe seriously.

Chen Xinghe pulled down the mask, and the young woman jumped up excitedly for a moment. It took a while before she regained her composure.

"Chen Xinghe, I really like you. Don't worry. I'll find a table for you in a corner with few people. It's our fault that we don't have a private room." She said excitedly to Chen Xinghe, and even complained a little in the end. own.

"You are so polite. Are you the boss lady here?" Chen Xinghe also smiled and communicated with her.

Hearing Chen Xinghe's words, she clapped her hands and said, "Oh, I forgot to mention it. I am the proprietress of this store. Don't worry, you can order whatever you want. This meal is my treat for you, but I will treat you later." Son, can you take a photo with me?"

Chen Xinghe smiled and said, "No, boss lady, please give us some of your signature skewers. By the way, some more mutton skewers. My friend really wants to eat them. It's okay to take a photo with us."

After receiving Chen Xinghe's assurance, the landlady became even happier. Then she thought of something. She slapped her thighs and looked at a few people. "Oh, I almost forgot. Come with me and I'll set up a table for you."

After saying that, the proprietress took a few people to a corner of the square in front of the store, quickly helped them set a table, said something to them, and left to prepare skewers for them.

Chen Xinghe looked around and found that there were two tables of guests nearby that seemed to be mostly students, and the number of boys and girls was basically the same. It looked like a college dormitory party.

After waiting for a while, the landlady came over with a plate, and Chen Xinghe realized that the plate was full of various grilled skewers, as well as a plate of peanut and edamame platter.

"Would you like something to drink?" the landlady asked enthusiastically.

Chen Xinghe hurriedly said to her, "Thank you very much, boss lady. We have to film a movie after we get back so we won't drink. Please bring me a few bottles of drinks."

After the food was put on the table, Chen Xinghe glanced at Zhao Jinmai, pulled down his mask, greeted her, and started eating by himself.

Seeing this, Zhao Jinmai felt no burden and took off his mask without any scruples and began to eat.

However, the proprietress was so enthusiastic that she delivered them many times, including spicy fried clams, crayfish, etc., and filled the table with them.

This also attracted the attention of the two tables next to me. One girl wanted to look here several times, and then she patted another girl next to her and started whispering to her.

After a while, people at both tables turned their attention to Chen Xinghe and the others. One girl couldn't help it any longer. She pulled another girl next to her to Chen Xinghe's table and asked him, "Excuse me. Is it Chen Xinghe? Oh, and Zhao Jinmai."

The moment they saw Zhao Jinmai, the two girls no longer doubted themselves, and immediately became excited, because even if it was just one portrait, the probability of two people looking alike was really very small.

"Shush!" Seeing that the two girls were a little excited, Chen Xinghe hurriedly shushed them. After all, there were so many people inside and outside this store. If everyone knew that he was here, it would be hard to say anything else, but they couldn't live in peace. ate.

Seeing Chen Xinghe's appearance, the two girls calmed down, "Can you take a photo with us? We are all your fans."

Chen Xinghe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they all calmed down. He smiled and nodded to the two of them, took turns taking photos with the people at their two tables, and received a guarantee that they would help cover them.

The late night snack was eaten very quickly, and they soon left here and returned to the crew. Of course, Chen Xinghe did not forget to take a photo with the proprietress when he left. By the way, he took this opportunity to settle the bill and scanned 2000 Chen Xinghe didn't know whether it was more or less.

After returning to the hotel, Chen Xinghe also said goodbye to Zhao Jinmai and returned to his room to rest.

To be continued. .
