Huayu: From an ordinary person to a happy director

Chapter 121 Zhao Linger's performance

More than ten minutes later, Zhao Liying finally entered the president's office.

After she came in, she just stood there without saying a word, playing with the hem of her clothes with her hands.

"Wait a moment, I'll take you to dinner after I finish my work."

Shi Lei noticed Zhao Liying's shyness and had no intention of teasing her.

Among everyone, Zhao Liying is the most reserved.

Compared with other girls, Zhao Liying has not yet fully adapted to the entertainment industry. It can only be said that she has too little experience and is too well protected by Taolin Film and Television.

I didn’t see the intrigues in the entertainment industry.

Maybe I know this, but I have never experienced it, so I subconsciously block out those bad things.

This is an immature behavior, and Shi Lei did not change Zhao Liying's awareness. There are some things that Zhao Liying will adapt to on her own in a few years, and he doesn't need to worry about them.

"Yeah." Zhao Liying replied in a low voice.

The two had had an in-depth conversation, but when she saw Shi Lei's handsome face, she still felt a little shy for some reason.

Shi Lei didn't say anything and continued with his work.

Zhao Liying secretly looked up, then quickly lowered her head, her heart pounding.

"Luckily, Brother Lei didn't notice that I was peeking at him."

After more than ten seconds, Zhao Liying couldn't help but look up again, and then quickly lowered her head.

A hint of pink appeared on the snow-white neck.

In the next few minutes, Zhao Liying looked at Shi Lei many times, and lowered her head many times. Finally, after realizing that Shi Lei would not look up at her, she stopped lowering her head and just looked at Shi Lei.

She found that men who worked hard had a unique charm that made her unconsciously indulge in it and gave rise to some unrealistic ideas in her mind.

Marrying Shi Lei seems to be a good idea~~
Zhao Liying recalled every detail of their love affair... the grand wedding... the chubby child...

Shi Lei finally finished dealing with everything and looked up at Zhao Liying.

The moment the two looked at each other, Zhao Liying seemed to be scalded. She lowered her head hurriedly, and a strange blush appeared on her neck and earlobes.

Shi Lei was stunned for a moment. How come your face turned red after just working for a few minutes?
Is this a thought of something unspeakable?
So Zhao Liying also wants it.

He wanted to explore the matter again, but Zhao Liying was so famous now that he couldn't ask any more questions.

"Let's go home."

“Ah!” Zhao Liying screamed, then realized that she had overreacted and quickly responded, “Okay…Okay.”

Shi Lei did not continue talking, but opened the door and walked out. Zhao Liying was not in a good state right now, being so shy. If she continued talking, it would be like a young couple. It would be better for her to talk less.

Zhao Liying didn't say anything and followed Shi Lei out.

The two got in the elevator and went downstairs without saying a word.

The assistant in the president's office looked at the elevator door, the fire of gossip burning in his eyes.

Although Liu Yan had the big mistake of changing clothes when he came out of Shi Lei's office, most company employees would not think too much about it. People either couldn't notice it or were just surprised. In the entertainment industry, it is normal to change several sets of clothes a day.

But the assistant now found some highlights on Zhao Liying. Her red face, earlobes and neck looked like that queen.

This is very different from Liu Yan, who has returned to being the president's secretary.

Now Zhao Liying looks like a little girl who has just been bullied by Shi Lei.

but……

"Tsk tsk, the boss is so capable!"

"It is said that the boss has abdominal muscles, but I don't know if it is true or not."

"If I could have sex with the boss once, then~~~"

Suddenly, the CEO's assistant lowered his head and saw the black high heels on her feet. "Oh, forget it. I can't compare to Secretary Liu. I really can't compare."

At the main entrance of the office building, a Volvo had been waiting for a long time.

The driver opened the door for the two of them, and they walked in first.

The car started and drove towards the villa.

------

In the villa, dinner had already been prepared and the two had dinner together.

They were all home-cooked dishes, and Zhao Liying took a few bites before stopping.

"Brother Lei, you continue eating. I'm going to take a shower first."

"Go ahead." Shi Lei agreed.

Zhao Liying stood up and went upstairs with her bag.

Shi Lei did not move. To maintain a strong body, he needed to eat well. He did not need to lose weight.

Ten minutes later, Shi Lei finished his meal and went upstairs.

When I opened the bedroom door, I saw the lively Zhao Linger.

The inner garment was made of light green fabric, and the outer garment was a goose yellow dress with a floral pattern. There were bows tied at the wrists and a headband decorated with silk flowers on the head.

This set of clothes was worn by Zhao Linger when she and Li Xiaoyao met for the first time, expressing that Linger lives a happy and carefree life.

"Brother Xiaoyao, you're here." As soon as Zhao Linger saw Shi Lei, she jumped and ran towards Shi Lei.

A youthful and lively aura comes over her. What a lively and lovely girl.

"Brother Xiaoyao, Ling'er misses you so much~~" Zhao Ling'er hugged Shi Lei around the waist, buried her head in Shi Lei's heart, and hugged him tightly.

"Ling'er~~"

Smelling the fragrance from Zhao Linger's hair, Shi Lei felt confused for a moment, and finally felt that he was really Li Xiaoyao.

"Brother Xiaoyao, I haven't seen you for a long time. Do you miss me?" Zhao Linger continued.

"I thought about it~~" Shi Lei rolled his throat. The taste was right, the taste was right.

He couldn't bear it any longer, so he pinched Zhao Linger's chin, lifted it up, and then kissed her.

Tear~~
The two began an unprecedented battle.

……

After less than half an hour of silence, Zhao Liying broke free from Shi Lei's arms, "Brother Lei, wait, I have other clothes."

"Go ahead." Not long after, Zhao Linger came out changed into clothes.

……

The next day, Shi Lei walked out of the room with unsteady steps.

As a qualified actress, Zhao Liying's interpretation of Zhao Linger made Shi Lei dream back to his past life and he was deeply obsessed with it.

Zhao Linger is indeed one of his favorite characters.

He was weak-kneed, and Zhao Liying was not much better.

She had already screamed herself hoarse and felt weak all over last night, but she was still not awake.

Shi Lei rested for a day, and couldn't help bullying Zhao Linger again at night, and went to work the next day.

------

A few days later, "A World Without Thieves" officially started filming.

According to the shooting plan,

The main scenes of "A World Without Thieves" were filmed in the capital, while the filming in Gansu was mainly on location.

The Ducheng filming base was chosen in a greenhouse in a science and technology park in Xiaotangshan.

The rented studio covers an area of ​​8000 square meters, and the rental fee alone costs more than one million yuan.

He also built a train named "No Thief in the World", which cost him millions of yuan.

The "train" is about 40 meters long and consists of four carriages: soft sleeper, hard sleeper, dining car and hard seat. The story of "A World Without Thieves" unfolds in these four carriages.

Shi Lei encountered a problem just after the filming started.

It is now May 06, which is summer, but this drama takes place in winter, which means the actors have to wear down jackets during filming.

Even in May, the actors still felt very hot and easily suffered from heat stroke even wearing thick down jackets. The sweat on their foreheads also increased the difficulty of filming.

But Shi Lei did not change his shooting plan.

The actors are professionals and they are much better off enduring the heat than the cold in winter.

If it's too hot, you'll just get heatstroke, but if it's too cold, you may get sick.

Some actors jumped into icy water in the middle of winter and were left with lifelong incurable diseases.

However, he still asked the crew to be prepared. In order to prevent the actors from suffering from heatstroke, the crew asked the actors to take Huoxiang Zhengqi Pills and drink water before filming.

After the shooting started, it went pretty smoothly.

In order to help the actors get into the role, the crew specially prepared a box of videotapes for the actors. Every actor had to study and practice carefully before joining the crew to learn how to become a qualified "thief".

Every actor is qualified.

The actors worked so hard that Shi Lei lost the desire to exchange experiences with the heroine and filmed the scene seriously. Even if he didn't share the joys and sorrows with them, at least he arrived on time every day.

The most difficult scene to shoot in the entire drama was the one where one peels an egg with bare hands.

For this scene, Shi Lei used some technological means to make an inedible fake egg, and then cut to the drinking part.

The rest of the scenes are relatively simple, with the cool blade fights being shot by stuntmen and having nothing to do with the lead actors.

……

Two months later, the film was completed.

Shi Lei hastily held a wrap party and then went to catch a plane.

Because "300 Spartans" is about to be released.

In Shi Lei's opinion, he doesn't need to be present at the release of "300". He is very famous in the circle, but his ability to attract audiences is not as good as that of Wan Zairen.

Wan Zairen has made several horror films and accumulated some horror film fans. Now whenever a horror film made by Wan Zairen is released, it can cause a sensation in the horror world.

Anything produced by Wen Zairen must be of high quality.

However, the themes of the films he shot were too diverse, and he had no fans in North America.

Whether he is present or not has little impact on the box office.

But the people from Warner still asked him to go to North America. After declining several times, he finally went to North America three days in advance.

There's no way around it. As a director, it's his job to attend the premiere.

----

As soon as he got off the plane, Shi Lei saw Mike who came to Warner.

This Mike is a little too enthusiastic.

When I first came to North America, it was normal for Mike to come and receive me.

Now that he owns Peach Film and Television, he should be received by people from Peach Film and Television.

This Mike is too goal-oriented.

Shi Lei gave a fake smile and chatted with Mike in a casual manner.

Mike didn't even say anything about leaving, and just followed Shi Lei to Shuimitao Film and Television.

Shi Lei took him into a reception room.

His assistant at Peach Film and Television poured tea for them all, then walked out and closed the door.

After the two of them sipped tea for a while, Shi Lei felt helpless when he saw that Mike still had no intention of speaking.

Mike was very patient this time!

"Mike, I have work to do at Peach Films. I'll take you away first."

There was no way he would speak up, and anyway, it was Mike who was anxious.

Mike didn't stand up or reply. After sitting there for a while, he said, "Shi, I want to ask you, what do you think about Hua Na's investment in Shuimitao Films?"

Shi Lei looked apologetic and said, "I'm sorry, I'm still hesitating. The companies that want to invest in Shuimitao Films include Warner Bros. Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment (Columbia is owned by Sony), and China's Wanda Group."

"All three companies are very strong and can be of great help to Shuimitao Films. I am still considering it."

It's said to be consideration, but in fact it's just delaying time. Wanda must join in because Wanda plans to bring Jingtian into Hollywood.

What needs to be considered is the choice between Warner and Sony, or both.

It's just a choice between the two, and it depends on who offers the higher price. If they want both, Warner will negotiate with Sony because they can only offer so many shares.
