Chapter 841 Wrap-up Party
"Okay," Yun replied, but added, "Call me anytime if anything happens, and I'll get over as soon as possible."
"Okay." Lin Tan smiled slightly.
Yun then started the car and drove back.
Lin Tan watched her leave before heading to the floor where the wrap party was to be held.
The wrap party was to be held on the third floor, but Director Ning said that the third and fourth floors were booked so that everyone could have fun after dinner.
As soon as I entered, I ran into Zhou Shiying. The two of them didn't get along as usual, and Zhou Shiying even said directly, "Playing the lead role really makes a difference. You even know to make a grand entrance at the very end."
"There are still more than twenty minutes until the six o'clock time Director Ning mentioned." Lin Tan never arrives at the last minute for things like this. "Where did you get the 'last minute' time from?"
"Whether we timed it right or not isn't important." Zhou Shiying glanced meaningfully at the bustling area as she spoke, "What's important is whether you know who booked the restaurant tonight?"
Lin Tan: "Investors or directors."
Most wrap parties are paid for by investors.
A small portion are organized by directors.
“No,” Zhou Shiying said.
Lin Tan: "?"
If it's wrong, then it's wrong.
Why are you staring at her like that?
"The one who organized this wrap party is President Huo." Zhou Shiying said this while looking at her with a hint of curiosity. "He's just a supporting actor in the crew, why is he hosting a party?"
"If you want to know, you can ask him," Lin Tan said without changing his expression.
But these words made me feel uneasy.
Although Huo Sinian hadn't bothered her or made things difficult for her in the past month or two.
But who knows if he might be holding back something big?
"No need to ask him." Zhou Shiying lowered her voice and whispered in her ear when no one was around. "I saw all the little things you did when you were filming with him. He'll definitely have an answer to why he's hosting a banquet before it ends."
"I don't understand what you're saying," Lin Tan said before leaving.
Since the investors and director hadn't arrived yet, everyone chatted quite casually.
We started by talking about everyday things.
As they chatted, they started talking about their time filming on set.
Which scene left the deepest impression on you?
"Does it even need to be said? Of course, it's the scene where Lin Tan's character, Tang Li's other self, appears. It gave me goosebumps."
“I felt a deep connection to every scene, whether it was the friendship within Tang Li’s team or Tang Li’s reconciliation with herself, they all touched me deeply.”
"Let's go off-topic." Someone stood up, glanced at Lin Tan, and said, "Although there's no romance in our show, don't you guys think that President Huo's character Yin Xu and Lin Tan's character Tang Li have a strong sense of chemistry?"
"I kept kowtowing, but I was afraid the director would scold me, so I didn't dare to say anything."
"Me too!"
"When Tang Li was left forever in the river of time and Yin Ruins became the guardian of the dungeon, it was so heartbreaking that I cried."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Listening to the crowd's discussion, Lin Tan remained unmoved and did not take their words to heart.
She remembered that scene.
It's not as exaggerated as they say.
Besides Yin Xu, played by Huo Sinian, the male lead Yin Zhibai, played by Fang Shi'an, also perished. The entire team suffered heavy casualties, with only one person surviving in the end.
The reason why everyone is shipping her with Huo Sinian is because Huo Sinian's portrayal of Yin Xu is so contrasting. From a Wall Street elite and a sophisticated egoist at the beginning, to using his abilities again and again to keep the whole team alive, he eventually sacrifices himself to become the guardian of the dungeon.
Although he was a supporting character, he had a good character design and was good-looking.
It will naturally attract a lot of attention.
In the entertainment industry, as long as you have a little bit of acting skills and a good-looking face, you can get noticed by the audience.
"Teacher Lin Tan, which part do you like the most?" someone asked her.
Lin Tan smiled slightly: "I like them all."
This movie is really good.
Using the theme of infinite flow, it reveals a lot of things.
When she finished reading the script, she had new thoughts about life.
This feeling intensified after filming wrapped.
Every character in the film, even minor supporting characters who only appeared once or twice, left a deep impression. This movie is really, really good.
"If you had the chance, would you still like to act alongside President Huo?" someone asked.
Lin Tan looked over.
She is a staff member of the film crew.
She didn't know if he did it intentionally or unintentionally, but since everyone was there, she didn't want to leave the room awkward, so she politely said, "The male lead is still here, why don't you ask him first?"
Everyone instinctively looked at Fang Shi'an.
Fang Shi'an is currently with Li Xingyang, the second male lead.
They didn't really pay attention to them when they looked over.
After all, besides being Fang Shi'an in the entertainment industry, he is also a young master from a wealthy family.
Acting is just a hobby and entertainment. Even if he doesn't give others face, no one dares to say anything to him. In addition, the investors and directors are not here, so he has become the person you can't afford to offend.
"Director Ning is here."
“The investors are here too.”
As they spoke, everyone stood up and looked toward the entrance.
Besides Ning, the producer, and the screenwriter, the rest were Qin Jiangye, several investors, and Huo Sinian.
No one was surprised to see him inside.
They all knew that acting was just something he was interested in; his real identity was still President Huo of the Huo Group, living a life at the very top of the pyramid.
"Everyone, please sit down," Director Ning said, his gaze sweeping over everyone. "Tonight's expenses are on President Huo, so make sure everyone eats well, drinks well, and has a good time."
These words naturally drew cheers from the crowd.
"The successful completion of filming for 'Memory Prison' wouldn't have been possible without everyone's hard work and the investment from our investors," the director said, introducing everyone. "This is Mr. Qin, our biggest investor in this film, and this is Mr. Huo, whom everyone knows..."
Hearing this...
A hint of surprise flashed across Lin Tan's brow and eyes.
Huo Sinian also voted?
"Everyone, please applaud."
A round of enthusiastic applause broke out.
The director said a few more words before finally giving his closing remarks, telling everyone to eat and drink as much as they wanted.
The speech is over.
Lin Tan also took her seat and prepared to start eating.
Before she could even pick up her chopsticks, Director Ning's assistant came over and said to her, "Ms. Lin Tan, the director wants you to sit over there. Please come with me."
"Okay." Lin Tan stood up.
Apart from her.
The male protagonist, Fang Shi'an, was also summoned.
A short while later.
The two of them appeared in a private room.
"Director, Lin Tan and Young Master Fang have arrived." The assistant director led them in.
All eyes turned to her.
Lin Tan greeted everyone politely and courteously.
"Come over here quickly." Director Ning gestured to the seat on the right as he spoke, "Sit here."
Lin Tan looked up.
They happened to meet Huo Sinian's gaze.
The location that Director Ning mentioned is next to Huo Sinian's.
Thinking about the little tricks he used to do under the table, she subconsciously avoided going there.
But everyone at the table was looking at her.
She had the least say in the meal.
Just as she was taking difficult steps toward that spot, Qin Jiangye, who hadn't spoken until now, finally spoke. He leaned back in his chair, looking nonchalant and somewhat carefree: "Come here, sit here."
Director Ning glared at him.
Qin Jiangye wasn't afraid of offending anyone at all, and said nonchalantly, "My company's artists, of course they have to sit next to me."
