Chapter 69: Role Playing
Although many netizens on Weibo had a lot of bad comments about Tang Qiaoqiao's new movie, she still joined the filming group as scheduled.
The scene was mainly set in the suburbs of the capital. There were not many roles required. Most of the scenes were played by Tang Qiaoqiao as Yu Li. Her husband was a young actor who had only been graduated for more than two years and a pair of cute five-year-old toddlers acting as her dragon and phoenix twins.
After a simple start-up ceremony, Chen Hao hesitated and said embarrassedly to Tang Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao, wait for a while. We will have a meal with the producer in the evening."
Tang Qiaoqiao frowned upon hearing this.
Knowing her concerns, Chen Hao quickly stated, "Don't worry, there are absolutely no unspoken rules. The producer just wants to get to know the protagonists."
Chen Hao also had no choice. After all, a big boss took the initiative to invest in the movie. He was very generous and hadn’t made any demands, just saying that he wanted to see the heroine.
In fact, it's normal for actors and producers to have a meal together, but he was afraid that the boss had a bad heart. After all, this kind of thing was commonplace in the circle, but Chen Hao had his own plan. He would never allow Tang Qiaoqiao to be bullied, not even for this investment.
Tang Qiaoqiao thought for a while, nodded, and agreed. It was not easy for Chen Hao to find an investment for this movie. Anyway, a man who dared to force anything on her head had not been born yet.
The meal was selected in a well-known restaurant in Beijing, with excellent privacy and a quiet environment.
When Tang Qiaoqiao and Chen Hao, and several other actors arrived at the restaurant, the producer had not yet arrived, but the waiter said that the dishes had been ordered and they can serve them as soon as they arrived.
Soon, the table was full of exquisite dishes. Tang Qiaoqiao looked around, and many turned out to be her favorite dishes. Tang Qiaoqiao couldn't help but taste two bites with her chopsticks and nodded in admiration, "It's delicious. The craftsmanship in this shop is good."
Chen Hao said, "This restaurant is particularly difficult to book. You will need at least three months in advance."
"Wow, then you are quite capable. You actually managed to book it." Tang Qiaoqiao said.
Chen Hao waved his hand and said, "It's not me. The boss ordered it. I am just a poor director. How could I find a way to do this?"
Tang Qiaoqiao became curious. "It seems that this boss is a nouveau riche with a bit of taste."
"Who is the nouveau riche? Huh?"
The door of the box was pushed open, and a familiar voice came from the door.
Tang Qiaoqiao looked up and saw Shen Yue sitting in a wheelchair, looking at her with a smile.
Her eyes widened, and she looked amazed.
‘Didn’t Shen Yue say that he looked down on domestic horror movies?'
'Why did he come to invest in this movie?'
Shen Yue looked at Tang Qiaoqiao's silly expression and showed a meaningful smile.
'Are you surprised?'
Chen Hao quickly got up and made an introduction. "This is President Shen. Our movie this time is thanks to President Shen's full investment."
The other actors got up and said hello. However, Tang Qiaoqiao was still in her seat.
Chen Hao touched her arm and said in a low voice, "Qiaoqiao, what's wrong with you? Say something."
Shen Yue pretended to be curious. "This must be the heroine of our movie, Miss Tang Qiaoqiao. I have long admired you."
Tang Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes and finally returned back to reality.
'Fuck, it's a pity that Shen Yue didn't become an actor.'
'He could also role-play, and his acting is very natural.'
Tang Qiaoqiao pulled out a smile. "I don't dare."
Shen Yue winked at his bodyguard, who pushed him straight to the position next to Tang Qiaoqiao.
He politely said, "Miss Tang, do you mind if I'm sitting here?"
Tang Qiaoqiao looked back at him. "Please."
Chen Hao began to faintly anxious. This President Shen was very interested in Tang Qiaoqiao, and now he was deliberately sitting so close. Anyone with a discerning eye could see his thoughts.
The heroic deeds of Tang Qiaoqiao kicking a perverted man were still vivid in his mind. Chen Hao was afraid that if the situation became uncontrollable, their crew might be in legal news when her temper comes up.
After Shen Yue sat down, he looked around the dining table and said with a smile, "Why don't you eat? Don't be restrained. Just feel free."
Tang Qiaoqiao sneered at him in her heart, 'Aren't we just waiting for you?'
But because Shen Yue said this, the others on the table began to move their chopsticks.
Tang Qiaoqiao originally thought that the boss would come up with a dirty brain, but she didn't expect the boss to be Shen Yue.
Although she didn't know why Shen Yue became the producer of "Cocoon," she didn't have to socialize with people she despised, which made her feel happy all at once.
Especially with so many delicacies in front of her, Tang Qiaoqiao ate very happily.
Shen Yue watched Tang Qiaoqiao feasting and said with a smile, "Miss Tang, is the food suitable to your taste?"
Tang Qiaoqiao swallowed a bite of beef and said, "It's delicious. Especially this beef stew in red wine, which is very tasty."
Shen Yue: "Really?"
"Try it."
Tang Qiaoqiao habitually picked up a piece of beef and put it in the Shen Yue bowl, completely unaware of how her behavior looked in the eyes of others at the table.
Shen Yue's mouth pursed with a smile.
Chen Hao was moved. Tang Qiaoqiao had to bear humiliation for this movie and took the initiative to please the producer. Oh... life was too hard.
The heroine worked so hard, and as a director, he couldn't sit still.
He filled a glass of wine, raised his glass, and said, "Mr. Shen, I toast you with this glass of wine. Thank you for your willingness to invest in my movie."
"Don't worry about it. Please feel free."
But Chen Hao was excited and drank a glass full of wine.
The director took the lead in drinking, so other actors also picked up wine glasses to toast Shen Yue. Others also yelled at Tang Qiaoqiao, "The heroine should also serve Mr. Shen, right?"
"She can't drink." Shen Yue blurted out.
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent.
Everyone thought about how Shen Yue knew that Tang Qiaoqiao could not drink.
After Shen Yue realized what he had said, he immediately added, "I mean actresses should not drink too much at dinner. Persuading drinking culture is a bad habit and should not be promoted."
Everyone suddenly realized, and one by one, they said, "Mr. Shen has a high level of consciousness and quality," "Mr. Shen pities the beauty and cherishes the jade," and so on.
Tang Qiaoqiao breathed a sigh of relief secretly. Her feet under the table lightly kicked Shen Yue, reminding him to play his role seriously and not expose their relationship.
Sure enough, Shen Yue restrained himself a little and did not continue joking. After drinking and eating, the group of people was ready to leave the restaurant.
Chen Hao was a little drunk. Seeing Tang Qiaoqiao and Shen Yue so close together, he waved his hand and shouted, "You two, split up. My heroine will not accompany you to drink wine. You go away."
Tang Qiaoqiao couldn't laugh or cry. "I didn't accompany him to drink wine. Director, you are drunk."
When he wakes up, he might rush to bury himself in the ground if he knew that he said "go away" to Shen Yue.
"I'm not drunk!" Chen Hao slapped the table. "I will definitely make this movie. I have to do it even if I have to sell my house. There will be no unspoken rules."
He continued to speak upside down and was very drunk. Tang Qiaoqiao told his assistant to make sure to send him home safely.
After everyone had left, Tang Qiaoqiao got into Shen Yue's car.
"President Shen, Boss Shen, can you tell me now? Why are you investing in this movie?" Tang Qiaoqiao asked after holding back all night.
Shen Yue said, "Film and television investment is relatively hot now. What is so surprising about me investing in movies."
Tang Qiaoqiao: "But you clearly advised me that domestic horror films are not good and you might lose money. Why did you change your mind?"
"I saw your script. The story is still somewhat desirable. I have always loved the film industry and hope that domestic films will flourish, so now I have to make a little effort."
"Just because of this?"
"Otherwise?"
Tang Qiaoqiao asked, "If they changed to another heroine, will you invest?"
Shen Yue: "It depends on whether the heroine is beautiful."
Tang Qiaoqiao said gloomily, "If she is beautiful, tonight would not end so soon, right?"
Shen Yue covered his mouth and said, "Perhaps."
Tang Qiaoqiao sulked, "Smelly man."
"Alas, I can be regarded as your boss now. You have to treat me better. Maybe I will continue to invest more." Shen Yue reminded her.
Tang Qiaoqiao lightly hummed, "I think someone doesn't want to eat the food I cooked."
Shen Yue suddenly felt choked: ...
Who is whose "provider"?
