"What's wrong? Lou Yulan hasn't arrived yet? That shouldn't be the case. She should have arrived before me. We just talked on the phone yesterday." Gu Mingchen asked.
"It should be here soon. They just called and said it will be here soon." Director Lu said.
"By the way, let me ask you something. Do you know Xiao Group? I heard that the president of Xiao Group is a relative of the president of your Qingfeng Entertainment." Director Lu pulled Gu Mingchen to a corner and whispered.
"Yes, they are cousins, what's wrong!" Gu Mingchen asked curiously. He really couldn't figure out why Director Lu asked this.
"Yesterday we received a call from Xiao, asking if we still needed investment and saying they were interested in investing.
I didn't understand it at the time and didn't dare to agree rashly. I just said we would consider it.
What exactly is going on here? Please help me analyze it. Hanlin and I don't understand. Are you saying they want to force someone in?"
Director Lu expressed his doubts, rubbed his sparsely haired head in annoyance, touched his trousers, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, but did not light it, just played with it in his hand.
"Xiao Group? Xiao Group has nothing to do with the entertainment industry, right?"
Gu Mingchen was also confused. He hadn't heard their boss talk about it. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and turned around to look at the door.
The somewhat familiar figure was still standing there. He was a little unsure just now, but after hearing what the leader said, he looked back and understood.
The child was listening carefully to what the person next to him was saying, nodding his head constantly, with a well-behaved look on his face.
"What's wrong? Do you know him?" Director Lu saw him staring at that place in a daze and nudged him with his elbow.
"Well, I know him, but not very well. How did he get into the program crew?" Gu Mingchen didn't say much, just asked one question.
"This guy wasn't recruited. It was Hanlin. It seems that the kid's agent did Hanlin a small favor, so Hanlin made an exception and recruited him. Anyway, they are all newcomers, so it doesn't matter who they recruit."
Director Lu said it didn't matter. He didn't care about these things. He just knew that he had to do a good job on the show.
"I think I know why Xiao contacted you." Gu Mingchen said, touching his chin with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Why?" Director Lu asked impatiently.
"It's because of him!" Gu Mingchen raised his chin and said meaningfully.
"Let me tell you, he used to be the third young master of the Xiao family. I've seen that kid at a banquet before. He's a pretty good kid!"
Gu Mingchen didn't keep him in suspense and told him directly.
"So they are from the Xiao family. No wonder. That's not right. What does 'once upon a time' mean?" Director Lu noticed something was wrong.
"It's like this, let me tell you..." Gu Mingchen told Director Lu the whole story. This matter had already spread among the upper class circles. After all, the Xiao family even held a party to welcome the return of the parents and children. It would be difficult for others not to know about it.
"I see. This kid's current status is quite awkward. What's the Xiao family's intention now? Should I accept this investment or not? If I accept, I can arrange for the next few phases to go to those overseas islands.
But if I take it, I'm afraid they'll make unreasonable demands. You know I don't like being pushed around." Director Lu's worries came back, and he put the cigarette in his mouth, but didn't light it yet.
"Take it, it would be a waste if you don't take it. I tell you, don't worry, this child is very well-behaved, he doesn't have any of the bad habits of those rich boys.
I just don't understand why he doesn't go to Qingfeng Entertainment if he wants to enter the entertainment industry. If he goes to Qingfeng, our boss will be there to protect him all the way. Wouldn't that be better than him just playing supporting roles now?"
This made Gu Mingchen puzzled. He didn't take the broad road, but insisted on taking the thorny path.
"Maybe it has something to do with his current identity. After all, his current situation in the Xiao family should be quite embarrassing.
"Then I'll have Hanlin contact them and tell them we've agreed. They should take better care of the child. It's not easy." Director Lu sighed.
"Old Gu, you actually got there before me!" At this time, a gentle and elegant voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
The person who was speaking was a woman as beautiful as an orchid. She came in gracefully and elegantly, and her grace emanated from her inside out.
She was extremely beautiful, like a pearl with a halo and a jade with a bright glow, and there was a hint of scholarly elegance between her eyebrows.
The person who came was Lou Yulan, the winner of three Golden Horse Awards. At this moment, she was standing there smiling at the two people whispering in the corner.
"I was wondering why you hadn't come yet, but you turned out to be so responsive. Now you're here, aren't you?" Gu Mingchen turned around with a smile.
"What's going on? Screenwriter Liang is worried about me and comes here to supervise personally, haha!" Director Lu was stunned when he saw the person behind Lou Yulan, then he laughed and walked forward to shake hands with the person.
The person who came was Lou Yulan's husband, Mr. Liang Yiming. Mr. Liang was a well-known screenwriter in the circle. He had adapted many big IP productions, and all of them were hits.
"I have nothing to do, so I came along to appreciate the wonders of nature. Director Lu, don't worry, I won't interfere with your filming."
Mr. Liang and Director Lu are also old acquaintances. Together with Wu Hanlin, they are of similar age and are all in the same industry. They have known each other for 10 to 20 years and often meet in the same crew.
"Everyone is almost here, let's have a meeting later to discuss the specific rules and things to pay attention to." Director Lu said.
"Xiao Li, inform everyone to gather here and don't run around."
"Director, there is still one guest who hasn't arrived yet!" Xiao Li said.
"What? Someone hasn't arrived yet. Who is it? Do you still want to participate in the show? If you don't want to come, just tell us as soon as possible so as not to delay our filming."
When Director Lu heard what Xiao Li said, his temper flared up, and Xiao Yishu and the others were so scared that they couldn't even breathe. They had only heard that Director Lu had a bad temper, but had never seen it in person.
But just now, Director Lu got angry without any warning, which confused them all. His temper came out at any time.
"Director, I'm sorry, we're late. We were delayed on the road and there's nothing we can do!" A cautious voice broke the silence in the courtyard.
Three more people came to the gate of the courtyard, all of them were girls. The one leading them was a girl with a beautiful appearance, tall figure, and wearing shorts that showed off her long legs.
This is Lan Jieya, she has big wavy hair, which makes her look charming and attractive. But the arrogant expression on her face destroys the overall beauty.
The two girls behind her were each pulling two suitcases. The one who spoke was one of them, who nodded and bowed to apologize to Director Lu.
They should have heard what Director Lu said just now.
