The 74th day of being eavesdropped

It was late afternoon, and the sun was very bright.

Huang Xirong took the bus to the movie studio. She had been here several times, so she found the assistant director Chen Liang.

"Auntie Huang, why are you here today when we are not filming?" Chen Liang asked in surprise.

Huang Xirong smiled and stared at the TV in the office. She could not take her eyes off it. She thought to herself that the people in the movie studio were lucky. They could watch TV in the office every day and still make money.

"Director Chen, I have something to trouble you with."

Huang Xirong put the fruits he bought on the road on the table. "You guys are very busy every day. I wonder if it's convenient for you?"

Huang Xirong really spent a lot of money to get the job done. The fruits included bananas, strawberries, and big round apples, which are all relatively expensive foods in this season.

Chen Liang was a man who always liked to take advantage. He immediately said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just tell me. Why bring anything with you? Aren't these fruits cheap?"

"Hey, if you are willing to eat them, then you are doing us a favor. I will have to trouble you when I shoot movies in the future."

Huang Xirong approached him warmly. Chen Liang pretended to be polite and refused for a while, but then accepted it. Huang Xirong then talked about business, "It's like this. I have a neighbor who is expected to come to your place for an interview this afternoon. Did you know about this?"

"The lady who interviewed the old woman?"

Chen Liang said with an "oh", "I know about this. Xiao Zhang told me about it."

"Yes, look at how incompetent this little Zhang is. Can my neighbor make a movie? She's just an opera singer, and she's not a good singer. And I'm not saying anything bad about her, she has a lot of problems. If she comes to our crew, she will definitely cause trouble for the crew."

Huang Xirong immediately added fuel to the fire and said a lot of bad things about He Chunlian.

Chen Liang is not young, he's thirty years old, and he's worked in the production studio for so many years. He has seen all kinds of intrigues.

He immediately understood what Huang Xirong meant and said, "Auntie, you don't need to say anything. I understand everything. Don't worry about this."

"You understand?" Huang Xirong was overjoyed and patted the back of Chen Liang's hand affectionately. "Oh, I said that Director Chen is an understanding person."

Chen Liang looked at Huang Xirong's hand, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and he pulled his hand back calmly. It

was around four o'clock in the afternoon.

He Chunlian took the script and rushed to the film studio.

Zhang Mouyuan, Chen Liang and an actress also came over. The actress was responsible for acting with He Chunlian. Originally, this had nothing to do with Huang Xirong, but she came over to join in the fun.

In this movie, He Chunlian plays a mother who is very realistic and carries the old social customs. She is picky about her daughter's marriage and doesn't want this or that.

This character is generally a ugly one, funny and ridiculous. It is specially designed in the script to contrast with the open-minded and generous mother of the heroine.

The actress is Zhang Lili.

When she first acted with He Chunlian, she was worried that He Chunlian would not be able to keep up the role, but soon, she found that this old lady was quite capable.

"Mom, Brother Wang said that he would treat me well after marriage and hold me as a treasure in his hands," Zhang Lili held her face with her hands and acted shy.

He Chunlian's eyes widened, she put down the knife she was using to cut vegetables, wiped her hand on her apron, walked over and put it on Zhang Lili's forehead.

Zhang Lili was puzzled and looked at the old lady in confusion, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"Oh my, I think my daughter is out of her mind. This man is reliable, a sow can climb a tree. He said you were a treasure before marriage, but treated you like grass after marriage. Daughter, that old Wang is old and poor, are you crazy to marry him?"

He Chunlian said while shaking her head, as if she had seen a ghost.

"Mom, he is not as bad as you say. His parents even said that they would vacate the house for us to live in as soon as we get married."

Zhang Lili stamped her feet in anger and said.

He Chunlian smiled and said, "When you were little, you said you would buy a house and gold for your mother when you grow up. Look and see if your mother has any gold..."

The conversation between the mother and daughter was full of fun.

Zhang Mouyuan became more and more excited as he watched. He lowered his head and wrote something down quickly.

Huang Xirong watched from the side with gritted teeth and eyes, feeling very upset.

"Cut, we can stop here."

After watching the two of them rehearse two or three scenes, Zhang Mouyuan called for a stop.

He stood up happily and said, "Auntie He, you acted really well. It seems that you really went back and watched it seriously yesterday."

"Director, you are too kind. We are the older generation. We like to be serious."

Although He Chunlian was very happy in her heart, she still looked humble. "It is also because Lili acted well that we acted well together."

Zhang Lili felt embarrassed.

She grabbed her braid and said, "Auntie He, you are really too flattering. I think you acted better than me."

She came here in a hurry today and thought that she was acting with an outsider. She didn't make any special preparations in advance. When they were acting together just now, she found that the old lady had made a lot of preparations. The tone of her speech, the movement, the movements of her hands and face were all clearly prepared in advance.

If they really want to film a movie, this level is enough.

"Xiao Zhang, why do I feel that Auntie He's acting is a bit..."

Chen Liang was about to find fault when he heard a knock on the door. After Zhang Mouyuan said "Come in", the person outside pushed the door open and came in. The person was none other than Lan Yeping.

Lan Yeping brought two children with him. He smiled and said, "We didn't disturb you, did we? Erniu said she wanted to come and watch grandma filming, so I brought them here."

"Grandpa Lan, this is really a bother to you. Erniu, you too, why are you bothering grandpa?"

He Chunlian complained, but in fact she was very happy in her heart. She picked up her granddaughter and kissed her.

Gu Yousi waved the candy in her hand, "Come on, grandma."

"Come on, grandma, you're so good."

He Chunlian was so happy that her face was full of smiles.

Chen Liang looked at the interaction between Lan Yeping and He Chunlian, his eyes twinkled, and he asked inquiringly: "Mr. Lan, do you know Aunt He?"

"Not only do we know each other, we can even say we are neighbors."

Lan Yeping smiled and said: "How is it, did my sister pass the interview?"

The old man has been back in Beijing for a long time, and his accent is close to that of He Chunlian and the others.

Chen Liang smiled and said, "Of course, Aunt He's performance just now really surprised us. She performed so well."

"That's good."

Lan Yeping nodded, and said, "Then we have found all the actors, and we can start shooting tomorrow. We can also put up an advertisement when our supermarket opens."

Chen Liang nodded.

Zhang Mouyuan adjusted his glasses and looked at Chen Liang with some doubts.

Chen Liang's tone just now didn't sound like he was satisfied.

He changed his expression too quickly.

Huang Xirong was very angry. When everyone left, she saw Chen Liang coming out of the office and quickly followed him. "Director Chen, this is not appropriate. You promised to help me, why did you change your mind?"

Chen Liang took out a dollar from his pocket and gave it to her. "Auntie, please don't embarrass me. You didn't say that He Chunlian knew Lan Yeping. Our movie is still Lan Yeping had to invest to film the movie,

how dare I offend him? "He said, looking down at Huang Xirong, and then said: "Besides, Auntie He's acting skills are really good, even when she comes to film, there is nothing wrong with her. What do you want me to do? Okay, don't ask me for this kind of thing in the future."

Huang Xirong looked at the dollar in his hand, and then at Chen Liang who was leaving, and jumped up and down in anger.

Her fruit basket was worth more than a dollar!

He Chunlian was so happy when she returned home that she even bought two roast ducks, one for Lan Yeping's grandson as a token of appreciation, and the other for the family.

Gu Yousi rolled duck meat with spring rolls, and the bite-sized rolls looked extra large in her hands.

Liang Ying looked at her child while eating and said, "Mom, are you busy with the filming? Do I need to live outside?"

"No, I've already asked them, and they said I don't have many scenes, probably only about ten. I can just go to the set when there's a filming." He Chunlian poured some soup for Gu Yousi, "I think I can take a break in the next few months, and I can also spend more time with the children at home."

"What about the going to the countryside to perform?"

Gu Yinxing looked up and asked, "Didn't you say that this is a good way to make money?"

He Chunlian said, "There is no end to the money, and the teachers in our school can do without me. If I don't take the scripts, someone else will. But if I miss the filming, I don't know when I will have it again."

Gu Yousi listened to these words and admired He Chunlian in his heart.

At He Chunlian's age, she still dared to try new things and was willing to give up the benefits she had obtained. This is really rare.

"Grandma, great!"

Gu Yousi gave the old lady a thumbs up.

The old lady laughed, "Our Erniu is so sweet. When you make a lot of money, I will buy you delicious food."

The Gu family was happy.

Far away in Xi'an, more than a thousand kilometers away, An Yi carefully took out a box from the house. The box was made of mother-of-pearl rosewood. When the box was opened, the things inside were pink and bright green, and each and every one of them was an eye-catching jade.

He Fei's jaw dropped to the ground. He closed his mouth and gave An Yi a thumbs up, "Awesome, you are really awesome. I knew you must have made a lot of things in these years. You must have made some top-notch products here, right?"

Considering An Yi's face, He Fei didn't tell him that they were fake.

He looked at the jades in the box and asked, "Can I have a look at these things?"

"Look, I have decided to cooperate with you, why are you still being polite." An Yi made a gesture of invitation.

He Fei took out a jade Buddha plaque, looked at it in the sun, and came back with an imperial green bracelet.

He only looked at two items and put them down, saying, "Brother, your craftsmanship is amazing. The emerald color and water content are no different from the real ones. How come you..."

Gu Jinshui interrupted him, "It's okay as long as you can't tell it's fake. We don't need to know the rest."

He Fei also reacted and slapped his lips and said, "Yes, yes, I said too much."

He originally thought that Gu Jinshui's plan was a little hard to say, but now that he saw what An Yi had made, he felt more confident.

He couldn't tell the authenticity of these things, let alone the overseas Chinese.
