At 9:00 PM, Gu Lingqing arrived at the hotel.
The dining place was in a luxurious private room with two large tables, and all the important characters of the crew were there.
"Teacher Gu, come and sit down." As soon as Gu Lingqing came in, Sun Minghui waved at her with a smile.
"Director Sun." Gu Lingqing smiled and walked towards Sun Minghui.
"Hello, Teacher Gu." Everyone present greeted Gu Lingqing.
"Hello." Gu Lingqing smiled back.
As soon as I sat down, Ye Lin walked in with an indifferent expression.
He nodded to Director Sun and the others, and without saying a word, he walked very naturally to the seat next to Gu Lingqing and sat down.
The others were surprised when they saw him come in. You know, this old man basically never attends this kind of dinner parties!
Today actually came!
Sun Minghui also looked at Ye Lin in surprise, and then said to the two of them, "Tomorrow morning, the two of you have a total of five scenes to shoot. Don't drink tonight. Drink some drinks or juice to stay in the best condition."
"Okay." Gu Lingqing made an OK gesture.
"Yeah." Ye Lin nodded.
Just then, laughter could be heard from outside, coming closer and closer.
A tall and somewhat plump middle-aged man in his forties or fifties and an elderly man in his seventies whispered a few words and walked into the box.
Behind them, four middle-aged men who were equally overweight walked in, talking and laughing.
"Mr. Hu, you are finally here. Please take a seat!" Even though he was a well-known director at home and abroad, Sun Minghui was very polite to the middle-aged man in the lead, Hu Qingrui.
"Hello, Mr. Hu!"
"Hello, Mr. Sun!"
The crew members stood up and greeted them.
Ye Lin sat still, nodding in greeting. As one of the heirs to the Ye Group, Ye Lin had parents worth billions, and his status was there, so he didn't have to bow to anyone.
Gu Lingqing also sat still. As one of the four great powers in the Immortal Realm, she was also very casual. When facing someone she didn't like, she never hid her feelings.
"Haha, hello everyone." Hu Qingrui looked around with a smile, and then his eyes fixed on Gu Lingqing.
"I've always heard of Teacher Gu, and today I finally get to meet him in person." Hu Qingrui walked to the main seat with the air of a superior, sat down, looked at her kindly, and said with a smile:
"When Director Sun first asked you to audition for this movie, to be honest, I was skeptical, but I didn't expect Teacher Gu's acting to be so good."
"I happen to have the rights to the TV series for this book. So, would you consider playing the role of Ling Luo in the TV series?"
The smile on that slightly fat face was very amiable, but if you looked closely, you could see that deep in his eyes there was a hint of teasing and a determined desire to play with others.
"Okay, I'm very interested. Thank you, Mr. Hu." Gu Lingqing said with a neither humble nor arrogant smile.
"Haha, you're welcome. Well, you stay and discuss the relevant cooperation matters with me later. If both parties are satisfied, we will sign the contract tonight!" Hu Qingrui still had a smiling face and looked like a good old man.
The other people looked at him strangely, but they tactfully and tacitly didn't get involved.
Ye Lin frowned slightly, and his aura became a little colder.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Hu would consider filming a TV series? I thought it would take at least a few years." Sun Minghui looked a little surprised.
"You've met a great actor. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never have it again!" Hu Qingrui said meaningfully.
Gu Lingqing just smiled and said nothing.
How dare you hide malice in your eyes?
Haha, it seems that you have not suffered the beatings of society.
"Haha. Since everyone is here, let's start eating?" Sun Minghui smoothed things over and started talking to all parties with a smile.
Ye Lin held a glass of orange juice that was 80% full and asked Gu Lingqing, "Want some?"
"Thank you." Gu Lingqing took it and drank it in one gulp.
Ye Lin was silent for two seconds, then filled her glass again and said in a low voice, "I'll take you home later."
Before Gu Lingqing could answer, Hu Qingrui smiled and said, "Haha, Teacher Ye, don't worry. After the contract is signed, I will send someone to personally escort Teacher Gu home safely."
"It's okay." Sun Minghui shook his head at Ye Lin. After dinner, he would stay and discuss with Gu Lingqing.
Although Mr. Hu likes beautiful women, he would not do anything inappropriate in public.
Ye Lin didn't say anything, but he was ready to wait for her to go together.
Everyone else pretended not to understand and continued to talk and laugh while eating, discussing various interesting things.
In this strange yet harmonious atmosphere, the meal lasted more than an hour.
Since Mr. Hu wanted to discuss the cooperation on the TV version of "The Abyss" with Teacher Gu and others, the others left directly after dinner. Some good shows require a lifetime to watch.
In the end, only Hu Qingrui, Sun Minghui, Gu Lingqing and Ye Lin were left in the box.
"How about Director Sun and Teacher Ye go to the next box and wait for a while? After all, some clauses in the contract still need to be kept confidential." Hu Qingrui looked at the tactless Sun Minghui and Ye Lin with a half-smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Lingqing grabbed his neck and lifted up his slightly fat body.
Hu Qingrui was pinched so hard that his eyes rolled back and his throat was rumbling, unable to utter a word.
Looking at Hu Qingrui, whose legs were kicking and looked like he was about to be strangled to death, Sun Minghui's eyelids jumped suddenly, his eyes widened, his heart beat faster, and his face was full of astonishment.
What's going on?
Why did you just grab the person by the neck and lift him up?
Isn't Teacher Gu's power too great?
Hiccup~
I shouldn't drink too much, I'm hallucinating...
Ye Lin's reaction was not as big as Sun Minghui's, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, expressing his appreciation for her behavior.
"How about Director Sun and Teacher Ye go out for a while? President Hu and I can talk alone?" Gu Lingqing looked at Ye Lin and Sun Minghui with a smile and raised his eyebrows.
Sun Minghui suddenly sobered up from his drunken state, "???"
Ye Lin found an empty seat and sat down again, looking as if he would not disturb them at all. He said, "You two can chat at your leisure."
"Okay." Gu Lingqing nodded and threw Hu Qingrui, whose face was flushed and about to faint, against the wall.
Then with a "thump", it fell heavily to the ground due to gravity.
Gu Lingqing looked down at him and smiled, "Excuse me, Mr. Hu. It's not that I look down on you, but you're really too lame. Others say you're the most ruthless gangster, and that's it?"
