Chapter 32 What a hearty birthday gift
The dinner didn't end until after nine o'clock in the evening. Meng Bai supported Wu Bai, who had drunk quite a bit of wine, and sent him to the car.
"Director Wu, your car is nice."
Meng Bai looked at the white Jeep Grand Cherokee in front of him and praised.
"Brother, you have a good eye!" Wu Bai gave Meng Bai a thumbs up in admiration, patted his car and said proudly: "Fortunately, I bought it early. The Grand Cherokee is now out of production. If I want to buy it again, I can only look for second-hand ones."
"Hmm~" Meng Bai looked up and down at the car and said, "This must be more than 400,000, right?"
"Forty?" Wu Bai snorted and laughed: "I had a full high configuration at the beginning, and it landed at this number!"
As he said that, he made a "six" gesture to Meng Bai.
"Wow, so expensive. Very good, very good." Meng Bai couldn't help but echo and sigh.
Wu Bai shook his head and asked, "Why, are you planning to buy a car?"
"No, I can't afford it." Meng Bai waved his hand, closed the door of Wu Bai's car, and then called to an assistant director who was driving, "Drive slowly, send the director back and give me a message."
"Don't worry."
The car started slowly until it slowly disappeared at the turn of the intersection.
"Want to buy a car?"
A voice suddenly sounded behind Meng Bai, scaring him. Turning his head, he saw Li Qin standing behind him with a smile on his face as if he had succeeded in a prank.
"Tsk, childish." Meng Bai sneered, disdaining such a childish joke.
"Hey, if you're scared, just say you're scared. I won't laugh at you." Li Qin patted Meng Bai on the shoulder and then asked, "Just now I asked you, are you planning to buy a car?"
"Yes, I've looked at a few brands recently." Meng Bai said seriously, "I think Yadi and Emma are both good, but a little expensive. Xiaodao is very cost-effective, but the brand is a bit niche. Another problem is that I'm renting a house now, and it's a bit inconvenient to charge every day."
"Charging?" Li Qin asked back in confusion, and then saw Meng Bai pursing his lips tightly to hold back a smile, and then he reacted and couldn't help rolling his eyes.
At the beginning, I actually believed his nonsense, and wondered what brand of car "Yadi" and "Emma" were!
"Well-" Meng Bai nodded with satisfaction, and finally avenged the "scare" just now.
Li Qin was angry and funny. This guy is really, he wants to retaliate, and he has the nerve to say that he is childish. I
really want to beat him up twice, but I'm afraid of destroying my reserved image. Forget it, I’ll write it down in my little notebook and I’ll get revenge next time I get the chance.
"Oh, by the way, you almost changed the subject." Li Qin tried hard to recall the original question: "If you don't buy a car, why are you so concerned about the director's car."
"Ah, this..." Meng Bai touched his chin: "In the plot, doesn't 'Zhao Li' have a very domineering car. I have been thinking about what car is suitable recently, and just now I suddenly discovered that our fifth director's car looks quite beautiful."
Li Qin was stunned, and then said speechlessly: "You really are... I now believe that you will definitely be an excellent producer in the future."
"Oh, there is no need to praise so directly."
"I'm not praising you!"
After a few jokes, Li Qin saw his little assistant Jia Jia greeting him, so he said goodbye to Meng Bai: "I'm leaving, you should go home early too. By the way, I will leave Jingbei tomorrow to participate in several activities and recordings. When the start time is set, please send me the time and I will go directly there."
"Are you leaving tomorrow?"
Meng Bai asked with a little surprise, then he turned around, took out a white box from the backpack behind him, and handed it to Li Qin.
"What is this?" Li Qin asked in surprise, holding the box.
"A pair of headphones."
"Of course I know it's a pair of headphones!" Li Qin pursed her lips. There was a pattern of headphones on the box. "I'm asking you why you suddenly thought of giving me a pair of headphones."
"A gift!" Meng Bai said cheerfully, "Happy birthday." "
..."
Li Qin held the "gift box" in her hand, and felt all kinds of strange emotions surging in her heart.
She looked up at Meng Bai, and the face in front of her, which was a little hateful and a little beautiful, was now filled with a bright smile.
Taking a deep breath, Li Qin suppressed the many thoughts in her mind. She tried to use a calm tone and joked: "How do you know my birthday? Oh - you investigated me."
"Girl, just search on Baidu, everyone in the country knows your birthday."
Li Qin suddenly felt a little hot on her face. Indeed, as a celebrity with a little fame, her information on the Internet is too complete.
She coughed lightly and pretended to be natural and said: "Then your search is not accurate, tomorrow is my birthday."
"I know." Meng Bai shrugged his shoulders: "I was planning to give it to you tomorrow, but you are leaving tomorrow. I can't wait until after twelve o'clock to give it to you, so I can only give it to you in advance. Anyway, it's only two or three hours away. Don't worry, I won't get older in advance."
"You are getting older! I will only be 22 years old after my birthday!"
Meng Bai's last sentence accurately hit the "minefield", and Li Qin's thousands of distracting thoughts were instantly blown away.
"Yes, yes, our sister Li Qin is young and beautiful, and she will always be eighteen years old!" Meng Bai responded without any hesitation.
"That's enough!" Li Qin hurriedly stopped Meng Bai. Such words were too embarrassing for the person involved.
However, she still said seriously and sincerely: "Meng Bai, thank you for your gift."
"As long as you like it." Meng Bai said indifferently.
After the gift was given, the two said goodbye to each other. Sitting in the car, Li Qin stared at the gift in her hand, and her fingers subconsciously rubbed along the box.
"Sister Qin, what is this?" The assistant Jia Jia asked curiously.
"Gift." Li Qin smiled, with a bright glow on her face: "The first birthday gift of this year."
...
After sending Li Qin away, Meng Bai also took a taxi home.
Sitting in the car, he kept thinking in his mind.
"Not bad, I feel that the effect of this gift should have been achieved." Meng Bai said to himself in his heart: "I am smart. If I didn't happen to see this silly girl's birthday, I would have wasted such a good opportunity to build relationships and build relationships."
Meng Bai had bought the headphones for Li Qin a long time ago. Of course, when he bought them at the beginning, it had nothing to do with "birthday gifts".
In the first season of "Pendulum", the image of the heroine "Wang Xiaoya" is a college student with a bit of "rebellious girl" meaning.
But Li Qin's temperament is fine for playing a top student Bai Yueguang, a good girl next door, etc., but the "rebellious girl" is always a little short of feeling.
The makeup and hairstyle had been adjusted before, and then Meng Bai thought that perhaps this subtle difference could be supplemented by adding some props.
He discussed it with the art of the crew for a long time, and finally decided to change the costume of the heroine when she appeared, and then let her hang headphones as decoration.
Meng Bai bought a pair of headphones online, which happened to arrive today. He put them in his bag when he came to the dinner.
Just now when he was eating, he searched for information online and happened to see Li Qin's information.
Then he found out that tomorrow is this girl's birthday.
Meng Bai also reacted quickly and directly turned around and borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, killing two birds with one stone.
Giving gifts, the person who gives the gift receives thanks, the person who receives the gift receives surprises, and the gift is guaranteed not to be wasted, killing three birds with one stone.
Meng Bai sighed, sometimes he was really moved by his own wit.
Oh, I almost forgot one thing.
Meng Bai opened the crew's financial WeChat - Sister Sun, I have an invoice for the crew's purchase of props. Please enter it in the account and I will come back to you for reimbursement.
Well, this is perfect!
