46. ​​Boss (2/2)

Bai Ye was so angry that he laughed and said, "Then let me ask you again, did you read the precautions when you went to the swimming pool?"

"I have seen it," Qi Xingchen tried to recall, "Patients with skin diseases and heart diseases are not allowed...Oh, and drunk people are not allowed either!"

After saying that, Qi Xingchen was stunned.

Suddenly I understood why Bai Ye was angry - it turned out that it was not because of impoliteness or disobedience.

"After drinking, people's reactions become slow. Every year, there are many reports of people dying at sea after drinking," Bai Ye said. "And it was so late yesterday. If it wasn't for me, who would you go to if you were in danger?"

Qi Xingchen rubbed the tip of his nose.

"Don't do anything dangerous like this this time, okay?"

"...Okay, I got it."

"If you do it again, I'll be more than just angry next time."

"Got it, I won't do it again... No!" Seeing Bai Ye raised his eyebrows, Qi Xingchen quickly changed his words, "Not again, this is the last time!"

Seeing how confident he was, Bai Ye finally couldn't resist and nodded with a smile.

The yellow light inside the car exuded warmth, and the cicadas outside the car chirped one after another. Qi Xingchen couldn't help but think of last night and licked his lips.

"Okay, it's getting late," Bai Ye glanced at his watch, "I still have a harmony to do, you should go back too."

Are you leaving so soon? Qi Xingchen picked up his backpack.

"No," he suddenly thought before waiting for the car, "Who are you looking for? Have you finished your business?"

"......Fool."

Bai Ye was helpless, "I was passing by after filming and came to see you."

"I was passing by after filming and wanted to see you."

Qi Xingchen's brain seemed to be stuck, and he kept repeating this sentence from time to time. After he joined the crew the next day, the frequency of replaying the movie decreased.

"Oh, our mermaid prince is here!!!"

As soon as he entered the dressing room, the makeup artists and stylists surrounded him and said, "Hey, Xingxing, how does it feel to have your video go viral and become a hot topic?"

Qi Xingchen had never been treated like this before, and his face turned red. "Stop joking with me. This is just a short video, not a movie."

"Not even movies have as many hits as you!" The makeup artist took out her mobile phone and said, "Look, Kuaishou was the second most hit yesterday and ranked first in total hits; iQiyi was the third most hit yesterday and ranked first in total hits; and there's also Penguin Video..."

After returning to his room from the night train yesterday, he went straight to wash up and sleep without paying attention to these things. Hearing this, Qi Xingchen opened the video software on his phone and watched them one by one.

The fact is indeed as the makeup artist said, his water-drenching clip did not reach the level of being on the top of the trending searches, but it was widely circulated and was on every video platform.

Moreover, they were among the top three in terms of clicks yesterday, and were even reposted by many foreign video websites.

Qi Xingchen widened his eyes slightly, he didn't expect the short video to be circulated so widely.

At this time, footsteps sounded at the door, and the business director's assistant came in, looking around: "Teacher Qi, you are really like this. When you are not in the play later, you should prepare yourself. The media will come over for a group interview in the afternoon."

Group interview? Qi Xingchen asked in confusion: "Why didn't the business director tell us in advance? It's too sudden. How many companies?"

As the name suggests, a group interview is an interview conducted by a group of media outlets. The assistant said, "They were contacted by the business director this morning. They didn't have time to notify us in advance. Currently, nine have been confirmed, including three live broadcasts, one print media, two self-media, and traditional media and TV stations."

There are nine companies now, and it is estimated that the number will double when the news of "Sea Heart" accepting group interviews comes out.

Qi Xingchen was even more puzzled: "Does it really need me to go?"

The group interview mainly interviews the main creators of the crew, unlike a single media visit where they interview whoever they catch. It has little to do with him, the third male lead.

"You have to go, Teacher Qi! Most of them are here for your short film!"

The assistant was busy, so he told him that the group visit location was the Hundred Birds Park Performance Hall, and hurried away.

Hearing the bad news that he had to participate, Qi Xingchen, who didn't understand this aspect, sighed and began to think about what questions the media would ask and how to answer if asked.

He started late and still hasn't mastered the art of speech. It's easy to make mistakes when speaking, and if he brings trouble to the crew, he will feel guilty.

Fortunately, Shang Yuliang had foresight and gathered everyone for a small meeting at noon. At the meeting, Xu Sheng and Qi Xingchen were specifically reminded not to talk nonsense or to challenge each other.

The two nodded honestly.

2pm, Birch Garden Indoor Performance Hall.

The iron rings and wooden frames originally used for bird performances on the stage were all removed and replaced with a row of long tables.

On the table were a microphone and name tags of the main creators of "Sea Heart", in order: the third female lead, Qi Xingchen, Feng Qingyuan, Shang Yuliang, Tao Tao, and Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng was the first to enter. When he saw the name tag, his face darkened.

Judging from the ranking of famous brands, Feng Qingyuan and Shang Yuliang correspond to each other and are absolutely number one.

Tao Tao corresponds to Qi Xingchen, but because Tao Tao is the true heroine, she is also the number one.

Qi Xingchen actually had some vague ideas about the second move.

Could it be that Director Shang wants to give him more scenes?

What's even more hateful is that he and the third girl sat on the outermost side, and it was obvious that they had fallen to the level of third place.

Isn't it just a short film? If Qi Xingchen hadn't been lucky, wouldn't he have gotten such a big exposure opportunity?

Xu Sheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, he regained his composure and put on a friendly smile.

In order to hold a group interview in the afternoon, the Bird Park was temporarily closed for the afternoon.

After feeding the birds and cleaning the garden, five young bird trainers felt bored and started arguing with each other:

"Hey, I heard that there is a big star in that crew, shall we go and have a look?"

"They are in a meeting. It would be inappropriate for us to go."

"What's wrong with that? It's okay to just look at the door. I heard Tao Tao is also here. Don't you like her very much?"

"I, hey, I do want to see her, so let's go and give it a try."

"Walk!"

Five young men released their parrots, but when the parrots saw them leaving, they flew back to their owners' shoulders.

These parrots are of purebred descent and have been trained quite skillfully by them. If it weren't for the bird skin, he might have become an immortal.

When the young men saw that they couldn't get rid of the bird, they thought that if they didn't speak, the bird wouldn't make any noise either, so they let the bird stand on their shoulders, and the five men and nine birds groped their way to the entrance of the auditorium.

Of course, he was stopped by two bodyguards.

By chance the door was open, so they decided to stand at the door and watch what was going on.

In the end, nearly two dozen media outlets attended the group interview, which was pretty good for a satellite TV series without a popular star to carry the flag.

Hosted by the assistant director, the several small segments were completed very smoothly and now it is time for free questions.

The media in the front row stood up and said: "Through the interview, I feel that our crew of "Sea Heart" is a very harmonious and loving group. So, are there any interesting things that happened in your life?"

This type of question is inevitable, and everyone answers one by one according to their seats. Qi Xingchen talked about how Director Shang asked him to go to the room at night, which almost caused misunderstanding. Soon after, it was Xu Sheng's turn to speak.

Xu Sheng cleared his throat and said, "Speaking of this, I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to Xingxing. On the first day of reporting to the crew, I thought Xingxing was staying on the second or third floor of the hotel like the rest of our supporting actors, so I kept dragging him to the second or third floor, hahaha."

The media asked: "Then?"

"Actually, Xingxing lives on the top floor of the Shang Dao building. Now that I think about it, it's really interesting, haha!"

As soon as Xu Sheng finished speaking, all the media in the audience laughed.

After laughing, they found that there was something wrong with this sentence.

The fourth season of "Poor Travel" was a success and the participation of the guests attracted a lot of attention. Now many people know that Qi Xingchen comes from a working-class family.

Why is he given special treatment different from other supporting roles and lives on the top floor like the chief director?

Considering that Xu Sheng had previously tried to find a sponsor to discredit Qi Xingchen, perhaps that was not simply a smear campaign.

It takes two to tango. Xu Sheng didn't criticize the male lead to get more roles for himself, so why did he criticize the male number three?

Reporters are all very smart. Someone immediately asked jokingly, "Xingxing, how does it feel to live next door to Director Shang? Does he often ask you to talk about the play?"

Qi Xingchen had a subtle look on his face, and naturally heard that the media's focus was not on "talking about the play" but on "living next door to the business director."

He lowered his head close to the microphone, preparing to answer according to what Qi Yuji had taught him, and opened his mouth -

The bird trainers who saw his appearance were shocked beyond words.

"boss?!"

"Isn't this our boss?!"

Then, because they heard their owner talking, the parrots also started to cry:

"Boss! Gah!"

"Boss, quack!"

"Boss, boss, quack quack!"

The author has something to say: A little angel from Shanxi reminded me that there are no coal mines in Shanxi anymore, so I made a revision and changed the coal mines in Shanxi to diamond mines in South Africa. Please read it again. And there are many little angels who think that it is not good for An Ran to ship a couple in front of Xing Xing. In fact, this has other functions. But if everyone doesn’t like it, then I will change it to An Ran secretly shipping a couple and be discovered by Xing Xing. Thank you for your support. Bow.
