Chapter 52 Chapter 52
Shao Weiming walked into the living room covered with tatami mats, greeted the three of them familiarly, then turned around and brought Cheng Hebai to him and introduced him: "I mentioned it to you, Cheng Hebai."
"Oh, your little friend." The speaker didn't lift his head, and didn't give Cheng Hebai any glance.
Ling Qingyuan was very resistant to being introduced by Shao Weiming.He noticed that the man who said he was a "little friend" had a relationship with him once.The eldest son of Weifeng Group, Yu Chengyuan.
Yu Chengyuan filled the only remaining upside-down teacup on the table with water, and motioned for Shao Weiming to sit down.Shao Weiming took Cheng Hebai by the hand, and sat cross-legged in front of the low round table.
"Cousin, what you said is not rigorous. To be precise, it should be Weiming's 'new' kid." Another man laughed.In appearance, he and Shao Weiming are somewhat similar.Probably because he was older, his brows lacked Weiming's femininity and Yu Chengyuan's sharpness.
Judging from what he called Yu Chengyuan's "cousin", he should be the elder brother of Shao Weiming's father, the son of Shao Hongkun, the head of the Shao family, that is, Shao Weiming's cousin.Speaking of which, Shao Weiqian and Yu Chengyuan's mothers are sisters.
"Wei Gan, you are the one who scolded me in front of Cheng Yuan." Shao Weiming sipped his tea and said in a tone of close brother-in-law.
Shao Weiqian said: "I'm just stating the facts. The second uncle is good, he is considerate of your special hobbies, and completely entrusts the entertainment to your hands, to the point that it fulfills your boy's romantic happiness."
Shao Weiqian should be the hub between Wei Feng and Hongxin in terms of identity.Shao Weiqian's cousin Yu Chengyuan is undoubtedly Wei Feng's heir, and he himself was born in the Shaw family - he has a father in charge of Hongxin Investment Company, a third uncle of Caozhou Media and a cousin of the head of Hongxin Entertainment.
Shao Weiming was in a very relaxed state, and his tone was especially innocent: "Who is to blame for my father's willingness to be the hands-off shopkeeper? Do you think he goes to some entertainment program all day long, really for the show? You ask Uncle San, and he is no better at breaking the news than Uncle San; He is no better at flirting with the hostess of the show than me."
During the dinner, there was also a young man who was silent and did not speak. It seemed that his age was much younger than the other three young masters.The cousins of the Shao family are in their mid-thirties, and Yu Chengyuan is even closer.
Ling Qingyuan has been sizing him up quietly, and he is also examining Cheng Hebai carefully.
"It's rare for the brothers to get together, why do you bring an outsider?" Yu Chengyuan accused Shao Weiming unceremoniously.As a result, Shao Weigan giggled and said that his cousin brought him to meet his family.
Shao Weiming took a sip of his tea and didn't speak, he looked like a mountain man with his own tricks and a city in his chest.
"What's your name?" asked the young man who hadn't spoken.
"Cheng Hebai." Ling Qingyuan said, there was no wave in his voice.He feels that since he became an actor, he has learned to use acting skills on various occasions.
"Cheng Hebai, I don't like you looking at me all the time." The young man said, "You make me feel very uncomfortable."
Shao Weiqian patted him on the back and laughed, "Daoyuan, you probably haven't mastered the art of Chinese. Don't express your feelings at this time, it will make you feel bad."
Ling Qingyuan withdrew his gaze and stared at the copper Tang Po in his hand.Shao Weiming generously said what was so uncomfortable, turned to Cheng Hebai, and asked him why he kept looking at others in a greasy, pretending to care tone.
Ling Qingyuan put down Tang Po, and said to Shao Weiming seriously: "Didn't Mr. Shao ask me to play the piano? At this time, I'd better accompany you gentlemen."
Shao Weiming went with him.Yu Chengyuan and Shao Weigan's eyes were slightly surprised. They simply thought that this little actor was called by Shao Weiming to accompany him, just like a plaything.They were even more surprised that Shao Weiming brought Cheng Hebai to play, and Cheng Hebai also knew that there was a piano in this compartment.
Ling Qingyuan walked to the grid sliding door, and gently opened the door.Just as he was about to step into the cubicle, he heard a young man named Daoyuan shout angrily at him:
"Who told you to touch my things."
Ling Qingyuan turned her head expressionlessly.
"Whoever told you that you need an accompaniment, whoever wants your accompaniment."
The young man is like an unreasonable child guarding a toy.Ling Qingyuan didn't say much, just quietly closed the sliding door, and sat down on the spot keeping a distance from them.
"Daoyuan." Yu Chengyuan called the young man's name, indicating that his reaction was too intense.In their opinion, there is no need to yell at an artist, it is too cheap.There is no need to talk to a person who may be willing to dedicate himself to please others for the sake of being famous.
Shao Weiming waved his hand casually, and compromised politely: "I was negligent. Wutong is originally the property under the name of Mr. Ling, and Daoyuan is naturally the owner. We are all guests. Let Hebai come back and sit."
Ling Qingyuan looked at the rush mat and listened to their conversation indifferently.
Way to go, can't go wrong.Ling Daoyuan is his father Xu Xian's son and half-brother.Judging from the relationship during the meeting...his younger brother should be cousins with brothers Yu and Shao.
It is so...
Ling Qingyuan closed his eyes, bitter in his mouth.It felt like a balloon filled with ice water had been punctured, chilling him all over.So it turned out that Ling Qingyuan and Hongxin actually had such a relationship, he didn't know, he never knew at all.
"Forget it, it's okay. Things won't break if people touch them, Daoyuan, do you think so? You haven't come back for many years, so it's rare to get together, don't you want to be happy?" Yu Chengyuan is worthy of being a few people Big Brother, the most stable person.
"Weiming, why did you bring your little friend here today?" Shao Weiqian asked his cousin.He didn't believe that Shao Weiming didn't know Ling Daoyuan's young master's temper, so he rashly brought an outsider boy to join them in their brothers' gathering.
"I really asked him to play the accompaniment." Shao Weiming argued: "Hebai, he is quite talented. The company wants to push him, but today he is just bringing him to see the world."
Yu Chengyuan and Ling Daoyuan discussed something deeply. In a few words, the former seemed to convince the latter. Ling Daoyuan nodded unwillingly to indicate that he was tolerant and magnanimous.
Yu Chengyuan then sent Cheng Hebai and said, "Go over and play, and watch the atmosphere, don't be too noisy."
To Ling Qingyuan, this sentence can be called amnesty.He had no intention of dealing with these young masters at all, hearing that Yu Chengyuan allowed him to accompany him, Ling Qingyuan was naturally happy to keep a distance from them.
Hearing the sound of the piano, Shao Weiming put down his teacup, and said quietly: "It seems that you really don't understand, Hebai, he is definitely a wonderful person."
"Where is the beauty?" Shao Weiqian asked his cousin: "You like a good skin, or you have good skills to let you know the taste. Otherwise, at most, it is his talent that can be put into your broken wooden barrel."
Shao Weiming kept saying something, but Yu Chengyuan took over: "Weigan, you have been on a business trip to the United States for too long, and you don't know that your cousin is going to quit smoking recently because of that child. If you do it again, you can't tell Then I started not eating fireworks."
Shao Weiqian knew that Shao Weiming never left his body with cigarettes before, and he looked like a cigarette addict.He was really surprised when he heard what Yu Chengyuan said, and asked his cousin again: "Don't tell me that's the beauty of that kid."
"Give me some time, before tonight, you should know his beauty." Shao Weiming narrowed his long and narrow eyes, with a half-smile that had some meaning behind it.Yu Chengyuan and Shao Weigan looked at each other, and then looked at Shao Weiming with the same disgust.
Ling Daoyuan was half a beat behind. He tapped his fingers on the table, as if he was listening to the piano sound and seemed to be absent-minded; "Brother Weiming just likes men, and it's not a rare thing. However, for those who are playing, it's better to throw it away as soon as possible." .Especially this guy, I'm disgusted."
Shao Weigan hooked his arm on his cousin's shoulder, pretending to be earnest, but said sarcastically: "Did you hear what Daoyuan said, you can change your clothes when they are worn out, and you should throw them away when you are tired of playing. Don't take it with us brothers like picking up trash, An eyesore."
A few people started chattering around again, making some ridiculous jokes with their mouths full.In the meantime, water-like zither sounds interspersed among them, and they sounded like tunes that were neither familiar nor unfamiliar, so they could be called gentle and pleasant.
Ling Qingyuan didn't choose any music that could easily reveal his emotions. He was impartial and chose pure music that is popular nowadays.The atmosphere in the conference living room was quite pleasant for a while.
Shao Weiming didn't order any songs, and neither did the other young masters.It's as if they all acquiesced that Cheng Hebai is a speaker, playing randomly.
After six o'clock, everyone at the round table saw that the time was about the same, so they discussed to let the servants bring the dinner.As for the dishes, of course the kitchen prepared them according to the tastes of several people.For example, Ling Daoyuan only eats Western food, Shao Weigan hates spicy food and doesn't eat raw food, and the other two have no restrictions.
After adding another tableware, Shao Weiming invited the luthier to have dinner with them.
Ling Qingyuan thought to himself that he couldn't escape, sighed and closed the piano cover, closed the compartment door and walked to the table.He happened to sit between the Shao cousins, opposite Yu Chengyuan and Ling Daoyuan.
"I don't like piano." Ling Daoyuan glanced at Cheng Hebai: "I can't hear anything commendable about your playing."
"As far as the performance itself is concerned, it is up to others to judge. Whether it is criticism or praise, it is reasonable." Ling Qingyuan didn't look at him, picked up a well-regulated answer, and replied directly.
"I think that you failed to make all the audience like your performance. As a luthier, it is an extremely failure and futile." Yu Chengyuan said harshly and critically: "It means that what you created has no value."
"Things without value should not exist." Yu Chengyuan made a final decision.
Shao Weiming didn't intend to intervene at all, he still entertained himself holding the teacup.Just like Cheng Hebai was not brought by him, but a dispensable person.
Ling Qingyuan sat up straight and looked at Yu Chengyuan peacefully.As far as actual age is concerned, they are of the same generation, Ling Qingyuan is not at all afraid of his deliberate provocation or finding trouble for nothing.
"Mr. Yu, a piece of performance, a painting, a movie or a dance is just like a meal. A meal, some people like its taste, and it is delicious. Some people hate its texture or cooking, and it is tasteless. Whether the taste is good or not, as an added value of food, it is up to people to judge. But not everyone can deny its actual value—satisfying one’s stomach.”
"You don't like the taste, of course you can criticize the chef's craftsmanship. But if you don't eat this meal, it doesn't mean no one else will eat it." Ling Qingyuan looked directly into Yu Chengyuan's eyes.
Yu Chengyuan squinted his eyes, and his dark pupils flashed brightly: "Even if your food is given to beggars for begging, and someone eats it, I will not deny it. However, if three, five, ten or hundreds of guests don't like your craftsmanship, why don't you Shouldn't be getting the hell out of the restaurant."
Ling Qingyuan slightly turned his head to look at Shao Weiming, seeing that he was still watching the fire from the other side, he simply gritted his teeth and continued: "You are right, if customers don't like me as a chef, there is really no need for me to stay in this restaurant. But Mr. Yu, I believe you are more aware that there are many kinds of 'Get Out'... I can open another store and name it after my characteristics. Three or five are not many, ten or hundreds are not all, as long as there are still a small number of customers who like this The chef’s craftsmanship, then this food can still be sold.”
Yu Chengyuan said sharply: "Then this cook is only for the minority, how much profit can you make, and do you have room to survive?"
Ling Qingyuan was full of arrogance, and he said stubbornly: "With the cooking method I like and am good at, entertaining customers who like my craftsmanship is justified in terms of the value of existence. Yu Zong, why do you bother to make extra money and profit?" space."
The two wanted to continue talking, but Shao Weiqian clapped his hands first and interrupted.He glanced at Shao Weiming, then glanced at Ling Daoyuan thoughtfully: "I heard my father and uncle mention a stubborn guy before. Of course, Weiming, you must have heard of it."
"He was short of money to make movies, so he looked for investors everywhere to raise funds. Many investors read his works and said: 'I don't understand. I don't deny that my aesthetics or understanding has not reached your level, and I don't deny that there will be A small audience likes your work. But at least you don't appeal to the vast majority.'”
"'I think it's a gamble to invest in a director doing something that doesn't fit the mainstream.' Most of the investors he approached were pretty reluctant."
A wave of horror climbed up the cerebral cortex along the spine, Ling Qingyuan tried his best to restrain himself, and endured the trembling back, he heard Shao Weiming answering his cousin's words lazily in a dragged tone:
"This matter is not absolute. Wei Qian, you should also know that a 'visionary' investor approached him later, and anonymously invested in him to shoot a lot of works. Finally, I gave the investor a...surprise."
Shao Weiqian also laughed, as if he wanted to add a comic ending to this story: "Unexpectedly, he really made a profit in the end, and let the investors make a profit. But he can't see it himself."
Ling Daoyuan pursed his mouth with a gloomy face, and obviously snorted, as if to say that he didn't like this story very much, and even rejected it.
"You guys have to thank me for adding more scenes." The topic jumped, and Yu Chengyuan was also in a happy mood when talking about this matter: "I really didn't expect... Tan Yingdi's appeal is so great. However, it is just a small-budget movie That's all, these benefits are enough for 'investors'."
Ling Qingyuan clenched his fists tightly and closed his eyes, swallowing the bitter tears back into his stomach.There is no doubt that this is the "fate" between these sons and his predecessor.In his previous life, he never traced the identity and background of the anonymous investor of his film - he was negligent, and he did not expect that this investor turned out to be Hongxin's pawn.Ling Qingyuan believed that if the four people at the banquet knew their identities, they would categorically and unhesitatingly take him for the second time...
Shao Weiming absolutely does not know that Cheng Hebai is Ling Qingyuan, absolutely does not know, and must not let him know.
Ling Qingyuan was restless, on the verge of shock and fear. Suddenly, he was touched by the person on his right, and then he was pulled into his arms by that person and asked, "What are you thinking?"
Ling Qingyuan suppressed the strong uneasiness and rejection, closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Cook, what should I cook?"
Shao Weiming rubbed his face against the top of Cheng Hebai's head, and suddenly laughed wildly and said, "I know Hebai, you are a fool, you are a fool. Why did you argue with Mr. Yu just now, let yourself get involved."
"Have you seen this? This is the beauty of Hebai. I haven't seen such a pure and innocent person in many years." Shao Weiming said to the brothers around him.
"I just think that he was arguing with Brother Cheng Yuan just now, and that's all for making trouble for no reason." Ling Daoyuan said coldly.He was instinctively hostile to the peer Shao Weiming held in his arms.
After a while, the food and wine were served, Shao Weiming took the blue and white wine pot, filled it up with a white porcelain cup, and handed it to Cheng Hebai first: "Hebai, you know how bold you were just now, you dared to contradict brother Cheng Yuan. "
"Respect Brother Chengyuan first, you punish yourself with three cups."
Ling Qingyuan struggled for a while, feeling deeply that he was on top of the knife and was being fished at will.The last time Shao Weiming drank alcohol, Tan Yue was able to help him block it. Although the two of them were not familiar with each other at that time...but Tan Yue had already secretly helped him.This time, it can be said that there is no end, there is no one easy to deal with.
I just hope that I'm too drunk to die, and don't say the wrong thing.Ling Qingyuan held his head up and drank with conviction, downed three cups.
Yu Chengyuan poured a small half of the glass, took a sip, and returned to Cheng Hebai symbolically, but his expression was very surprised. He was surprised that the wine was quite different: "Good wine, this wine is so fragrant and smooth."
"Niulan Mountain has been brewed for a hundred years, and the capital is the first brewer." Shao Weiming smiled and said, "If you are far away, don't try it. Gaoliang, sorghum wine, you are not used to drinking it."
"Weiming has a heart." Shao Weiqian also took a sip: "Cheng Yuan is right, this wine is really smooth."
"So, there are not necessarily only a few good wines. I like this wine because it is refreshing and mellow. You have all tasted the taste. Although the alcohol is high, it is not strong."
Ling Daoyuan gave Shao Weiming a blank look, knowing that there was a metaphor in his words.This young man was not used to the extensive and profound wine table culture at all, and he was cutting up the cod on the plate.
Ling Qingyuan complained in his heart, today Shao Weiming gave him Erguotou instead, after getting drunk, what does Young Master Shao have in mind.In any case, he had to fight first.
"Mr. Wei Ming, He Bai will continue his role in "Tiger Fight" tomorrow, so it's really inappropriate to drink too much today."
When Shao Weiming heard Cheng Hebai calling his name, he laughed so hard that his branches trembled.He touched Cheng Hebai's face, leaned into his ear affectionately, and said, "I'll just tell my uncle and ask him to explain to Director Zhang that Xu Xiaochuan's scene will not be scheduled tomorrow for the time being."
Ling Qingyuan tried his best to sit upright, escape Shao Weiming's confinement, and said solemnly: "The filming crew is in a hurry. You can't delay because of an actor."
"Schedule, release, release? You don't see who is sitting here today. You and us have a drink, and you don't have to worry about anything else. If you want to become famous as soon as possible, instead of rushing to the set tomorrow, you should do it right now." Stay here."
"Mr. Weiming, Hebai is afraid that if he behaves inappropriately and speaks unscrupulously again, it will make you guys unhappy."
"Unhappy? If you make someone unhappy, just drink it. Make an apology. Just like now, you make me unhappy." Shao Weiming dragged his voice and began to play a rascal, and several young masters present cooperated with an attitude that had nothing to do with him.
Tan Yue dialed out the phone again, but the number you dialed was still temporarily unavailable.He read Cheng Hebai's Weibo and those of his fans, and knew that he had boarded the plane during the day and was surrounded by fans.
Many fans who knew about his itinerary gathered at the domestic arrival gate of Taiping Airport to wait for him, but they never showed up.
It was past ten o'clock when work was over.Tan Yue remembered that he said yesterday that Hongxin would come to pick him up, and he could hear the implication, so he was even more worried.Maybe...he's back in the apartment, resting.Tan Yue called Yuan Xin to stop, and wanted to go to his apartment to find someone, but the words on his lips changed to: "Go back and see if Xiao Cheng is there...Whether he is or not, give me a message."
Yuan Xin thought that Tan Yue wanted to rehearse tomorrow's scene with Cheng Hebai, so he naturally agreed.
Tan Yue was still worried. With that person's carelessness, how could he not contact him after returning to the apartment.
The author has something to say:
The amount of information in this chapter is slightly larger, and the blood relationship of the characters is added. × means husband and wife, (in brackets are characters that do not appear).It's just a setting, friends who are too lazy to remember can just know that they are distant relatives.
Shao's:
Father Shao Hongkun×(Qi Mei)=Shao Xinqi=Shao Lirong
The next generation Shao Weigan|||Shao Weiming=Shao Weiwei♀
Yu's:
Father Yu Weitai×(Qi Feng)=Yu Weiran♀
Yu Chengyuan > Yu Chenghan
Ling's:
Father Ling Mu×Yu Weiran♀
Ling Daoyuan = Ling Zhiyuan
I finally want to open the map of the Cold War, I like the intrigue and whatnot XD
"Oh, your little friend." The speaker didn't lift his head, and didn't give Cheng Hebai any glance.
Ling Qingyuan was very resistant to being introduced by Shao Weiming.He noticed that the man who said he was a "little friend" had a relationship with him once.The eldest son of Weifeng Group, Yu Chengyuan.

Yu Chengyuan squinted his eyes, and his dark pupils flashed brightly: "Even if your food is given to beggars for begging, and someone eats it, I will not deny it. However, if three, five, ten or hundreds of guests don't like your craftsmanship, why don't you Shouldn't be getting the hell out of the restaurant."
Ling Qingyuan slightly turned his head to look at Shao Weiming, seeing that he was still watching the fire from the other side, he simply gritted his teeth and continued: "You are right, if customers don't like me as a chef, there is really no need for me to stay in this restaurant. But Mr. Yu, I believe you are more aware that there are many kinds of 'Get Out'... I can open another store and name it after my characteristics. Three or five are not many, ten or hundreds are not all, as long as there are still a small number of customers who like this The chef’s craftsmanship, then this food can still be sold.”
Yu Chengyuan said sharply: "Then this cook is only for the minority, how much profit can you make, and do you have room to survive?"
Ling Qingyuan was full of arrogance, and he said stubbornly: "With the cooking method I like and am good at, entertaining customers who like my craftsmanship is justified in terms of the value of existence. Yu Zong, why do you bother to make extra money and profit?" space."
The two wanted to continue talking, but Shao Weiqian clapped his hands first and interrupted.He glanced at Shao Weiming, then glanced at Ling Daoyuan thoughtfully: "I heard my father and uncle mention a stubborn guy before. Of course, Weiming, you must have heard of it."
"He was short of money to make movies, so he looked for investors everywhere to raise funds. Many investors read his works and said: 'I don't understand. I don't deny that my aesthetics or understanding has not reached your level, and I don't deny that there will be A small audience likes your work. But at least you don't appeal to the vast majority.'”
"'I think it's a gamble to invest in a director doing something that doesn't fit the mainstream.' Most of the investors he approached were pretty reluctant."
A wave of horror climbed up the cerebral cortex along the spine, Ling Qingyuan tried his best to restrain himself, and endured the trembling back, he heard Shao Weiming answering his cousin's words lazily in a dragged tone:
"This matter is not absolute. Wei Qian, you should also know that a 'visionary' investor approached him later, and anonymously invested in him to shoot a lot of works. Finally, I gave the investor a...surprise."
Shao Weiqian also laughed, as if he wanted to add a comic ending to this story: "Unexpectedly, he really made a profit in the end, and let the investors make a profit. But he can't see it himself."
Ling Daoyuan pursed his mouth with a gloomy face, and obviously snorted, as if to say that he didn't like this story very much, and even rejected it.
"You guys have to thank me for adding more scenes." The topic jumped, and Yu Chengyuan was also in a happy mood when talking about this matter: "I really didn't expect... Tan Yingdi's appeal is so great. However, it is just a small-budget movie That's all, these benefits are enough for 'investors'."
Ling Qingyuan clenched his fists tightly and closed his eyes, swallowing the bitter tears back into his stomach.There is no doubt that this is the "fate" between these sons and his predecessor.In his previous life, he never traced the identity and background of the anonymous investor of his film - he was negligent, and he did not expect that this investor turned out to be Hongxin's pawn.Ling Qingyuan believed that if the four people at the banquet knew their identities, they would categorically and unhesitatingly take him for the second time...
Shao Weiming absolutely does not know that Cheng Hebai is Ling Qingyuan, absolutely does not know, and must not let him know.
Ling Qingyuan was restless, on the verge of shock and fear. Suddenly, he was touched by the person on his right, and then he was pulled into his arms by that person and asked, "What are you thinking?"
Ling Qingyuan suppressed the strong uneasiness and rejection, closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Cook, what should I cook?"
Shao Weiming rubbed his face against the top of Cheng Hebai's head, and suddenly laughed wildly and said, "I know Hebai, you are a fool, you are a fool. Why did you argue with Mr. Yu just now, let yourself get involved."
"Have you seen this? This is the beauty of Hebai. I haven't seen such a pure and innocent person in many years." Shao Weiming said to the brothers around him.
"I just think that he was arguing with Brother Cheng Yuan just now, and that's all for making trouble for no reason." Ling Daoyuan said coldly.He was instinctively hostile to the peer Shao Weiming held in his arms.
After a while, the food and wine were served, Shao Weiming took the blue and white wine pot, filled it up with a white porcelain cup, and handed it to Cheng Hebai first: "Hebai, you know how bold you were just now, you dared to contradict brother Cheng Yuan. "
"Respect Brother Chengyuan first, you punish yourself with three cups."
Ling Qingyuan struggled for a while, feeling deeply that he was on top of the knife and was being fished at will.The last time Shao Weiming drank alcohol, Tan Yue was able to help him block it. Although the two of them were not familiar with each other at that time...but Tan Yue had already secretly helped him.This time, it can be said that there is no end, there is no one easy to deal with.
I just hope that I'm too drunk to die, and don't say the wrong thing.Ling Qingyuan held his head up and drank with conviction, downed three cups.
Yu Chengyuan poured a small half of the glass, took a sip, and returned to Cheng Hebai symbolically, but his expression was very surprised. He was surprised that the wine was quite different: "Good wine, this wine is so fragrant and smooth."
"Niulan Mountain has been brewed for a hundred years, and the capital is the first brewer." Shao Weiming smiled and said, "If you are far away, don't try it. Gaoliang, sorghum wine, you are not used to drinking it."
"Weiming has a heart." Shao Weiqian also took a sip: "Cheng Yuan is right, this wine is really smooth."
"So, there are not necessarily only a few good wines. I like this wine because it is refreshing and mellow. You have all tasted the taste. Although the alcohol is high, it is not strong."
Ling Daoyuan gave Shao Weiming a blank look, knowing that there was a metaphor in his words.This young man was not used to the extensive and profound wine table culture at all, and he was cutting up the cod on the plate.
Ling Qingyuan complained in his heart, today Shao Weiming gave him Erguotou instead, after getting drunk, what does Young Master Shao have in mind.In any case, he had to fight first.
"Mr. Wei Ming, He Bai will continue his role in "Tiger Fight" tomorrow, so it's really inappropriate to drink too much today."
When Shao Weiming heard Cheng Hebai calling his name, he laughed so hard that his branches trembled.He touched Cheng Hebai's face, leaned into his ear affectionately, and said, "I'll just tell my uncle and ask him to explain to Director Zhang that Xu Xiaochuan's scene will not be scheduled tomorrow for the time being."
Ling Qingyuan tried his best to sit upright, escape Shao Weiming's confinement, and said solemnly: "The filming crew is in a hurry. You can't delay because of an actor."
"Schedule, release, release? You don't see who is sitting here today. You and us have a drink, and you don't have to worry about anything else. If you want to become famous as soon as possible, instead of rushing to the set tomorrow, you should do it right now." Stay here."
"Mr. Weiming, Hebai is afraid that if he behaves inappropriately and speaks unscrupulously again, it will make you guys unhappy."
"Unhappy? If you make someone unhappy, just drink it. Make an apology. Just like now, you make me unhappy." Shao Weiming dragged his voice and began to play a rascal, and several young masters present cooperated with an attitude that had nothing to do with him.
Tan Yue dialed out the phone again, but the number you dialed was still temporarily unavailable.He read Cheng Hebai's Weibo and those of his fans, and knew that he had boarded the plane during the day and was surrounded by fans.
Many fans who knew about his itinerary gathered at the domestic arrival gate of Taiping Airport to wait for him, but they never showed up.
It was past ten o'clock when work was over.Tan Yue remembered that he said yesterday that Hongxin would come to pick him up, and he could hear the implication, so he was even more worried.Maybe...he's back in the apartment, resting.Tan Yue called Yuan Xin to stop, and wanted to go to his apartment to find someone, but the words on his lips changed to: "Go back and see if Xiao Cheng is there...Whether he is or not, give me a message."
Yuan Xin thought that Tan Yue wanted to rehearse tomorrow's scene with Cheng Hebai, so he naturally agreed.
Tan Yue was still worried. With that person's carelessness, how could he not contact him after returning to the apartment.
The author has something to say:
The amount of information in this chapter is slightly larger, and the blood relationship of the characters is added. × means husband and wife, (in brackets are characters that do not appear).It's just a setting, friends who are too lazy to remember can just know that they are distant relatives.
Shao's:
Father Shao Hongkun×(Qi Mei)=Shao Xinqi=Shao Lirong
The next generation Shao Weigan|||Shao Weiming=Shao Weiwei♀
Yu's:
Father Yu Weitai×(Qi Feng)=Yu Weiran♀
Yu Chengyuan > Yu Chenghan
Ling's:
Father Ling Mu×Yu Weiran♀
Ling Daoyuan = Ling Zhiyuan
