Chapter 111 You really can’t come!
The atmosphere on the set has become particularly harmonious and festive because of today's hot searches. Even the assistant director, who often gets angry because he has to help the actors rehearse every day, has become much more amiable.
After all, today's hot search was completely unexpected and was purely added to the hot search list by netizens.
Without any effort or spending a penny, he brought a lot of popularity to the crew.
After the afternoon's set of shots was finished, Chen Li did not return to the lounge because the second set of shots was about to start. Xiao Yun accompanied her to wait outside.
The assistant director took the initiative to bring out a box of sliced iced watermelon and said, "Ali, have some watermelon to cool down. You've been busy today. You have six scenes this afternoon."
After Shen Li joined the crew and performed two scenes, the assistant director fell in love with this girl with good personality and acting skills, so every time he spoke to Shen Li, he subconsciously raised his voice, which was very interesting.
Every time Xiaoyun saw him cursing someone one second and then turning around to look at Ali with a changed expression, she couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Li quickly took it with both hands and said thank you, then asked in a low voice: "Director Li, I remember there were three scenes without me, why did you give me a new script at the last minute?"
Not only is it a new draft, but it also contains densely packed lines.
The assistant director smiled meaningfully, leaned closer, and said, "The director and screenwriter both like you and have given you more scenes. Just act well. By the time filming wraps up, maybe your role will be as important as the second female lead."
"Ah? This is inappropriate..." Chen Li was a little panicked.
The assistant director patted her shoulder and soothed her, "Don't worry. These scenes added for you were carefully thought out by the director and screenwriter. They ensure both rationality and a smoother flow of the plot, so people won't feel confused."
"Besides, the audience likes to watch you and you and An Yu, so they prolonged your love scenes. This way, the final BE will be even more painful!"
More pain...
Is this how you abuse your fans?
Chen Li nodded with a wry smile and stopped worrying about it.
After the assistant director left, Song Anyu suddenly came over.
Xiaoyun subconsciously stepped forward with a vigilant look on her face. She now felt that it would be dangerous if she got involved with Song Anyu and Ah Li.
Song Anyu looked a little uncomfortable. He was actually quite introverted, but he still felt it necessary to apologize to Chen Li in person.
Chen Li could tell that he had something to say, so she stared at him without blinking, waiting for him to speak.
Song Anyu's lips moved, and after a while he whispered, "I'm really sorry about what happened today."
"It's okay, they were all accidents and they're not something you can control," Shen Li said.
Song Anyu felt very guilty, thinking that if he had not blocked the thermos, the consequences could have been serious.
"Are you hurt?" Song Anyu said, with worry in his eyes.
Chen Li gave him a reassuring smile and shook her head, "No, you don't have to worry."
Only then did Song Anyu feel a little relieved.
Who knew that when I relaxed, the dream from last night suddenly flashed through my mind. My cheeks suddenly felt hot and I lowered my head like a guilty thief.
"The second scene starts in ten minutes, actors, come over and rehearse first!"
The voice of the field control teacher suddenly sounded, causing Chen Li and Song Anyu to look up.
"The filming is about to start. You don't have to worry about what happened today. It's really okay for me." Chen Li looked at Song Anyu and comforted him again, fearing that he would spend too much effort on this matter.
After saying this, Chen Li was about to turn around and go back to the stage, but Song Anyu hurriedly called out to her, "Chen Li..."
She looked back at him with a confused look on her face, and saw Song Anyu pause and said, "Can I add you on WeChat?"
Chen Li was stunned and subconsciously looked at Xiaoyun, who was also confused by Song Anyu's sudden request.
"Oh, okay." Chen Li nodded, took the phone from Xiaoyun, and added each other's contact information with Song Anyu.
This scene also happened to fall into the eyes of Xiaolong who was not far away.
His eyes were dull and his expression was dazed, and he felt as if he was struck by lightning!
He murmured, "No way, big brother? This won't work... It won't work if you really do it!"

The next day, Chen Ci received a message from Luo Tianrui as soon as he woke up. He told Chen Ci that all the team members had returned to Longcheng. Today was the last day of the National Day holiday, and everyone could get together.
Shen Ci immediately agreed and found a mid-range restaurant and sent the location in the group.
"Brothers and sisters, at six o'clock tonight, in the Muyu Zhaozhao private room, I'll treat everyone to a meal so we can get to know each other."
Everyone in the group responded immediately.
The reason why Chen Ci only chose a mid-range restaurant was to make everyone feel more comfortable and to make them feel less disconnected in their consumption concepts.
Otherwise, if a dish costs several people a year's living expenses, it will only make them feel it is too luxurious and their psychological pressure will increase inexplicably.
It’s not too late to go after high-end restaurants and other team projects become profitable.
In addition, Shen Ci also prepared a thoughtful and practical gift for everyone in the team.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, everyone arrived at the restaurant on time, and Luo Tianrui received a message from Shen Ci, asking him to bring Brother Ge downstairs to help get things.
The two hurried to the downstairs of the restaurant and saw Shen Ci standing on the side of the road with a pile of things half a person's height beside him.
"Brother, please help me. This is a welcome gift for everyone."
Chen Ci was dressed very casually today, wearing a white top, light-colored jeans and a pair of flat shoes, looking exactly like a pure female college student.
"Holy crap! Laptop!"
Ge Youcai stepped forward and recognized what Shen Ci brought with him: eight brand new laptops.
"Junior sister, this, this is for us?" Ge Youcai couldn't believe it.
If these computers are top-of-the-line, they would cost more than ten dollars!
Shen Ci smiled and nodded: "Let's take it up together, the three of us, don't keep everyone waiting."
Luo Tianrui was also surprised. After coming to his senses, he quickly said, "We all have computers. Why spend money?"
He still couldn't change his habit of being stingy with money, and subconsciously thought that if the ten yuan was invested in the project, the project funds would be more sufficient.
Shen Ci could see what he was thinking, so he just smiled and said, "A good team naturally needs the best equipment to achieve twice the result with half the effort. Have you forgotten what I said? Time cost is the biggest hidden cost and cannot be ignored."
"I think Chen Ci is right." Ge Youcai nodded repeatedly and said, "The computers of Yuanshuai, Peipei, and I have been a little overwhelmed for a long time. Yuanshuai's computer has been blue-screening all the time recently. He has to save everything he does first, otherwise he's afraid of losing the data."
This is indeed a rather embarrassing situation, and Luo Tianrui cannot deny it.
Therefore, Shen Ci's choice of gift is very critical and practical.
Luo Tianrui could only nod: "Thank you..."
Shen Ci smiled calmly: "Don't thank me yet, take the things upstairs, I'll wait for everyone to thank me together!"
The third update. This chapter is an extra update for the five-star reviews in the comment section. I originally wanted to add it yesterday, but moved it to today.
I read every single one of your comments, and they're so touching and heartwarming. Seeing everyone's messages makes me feel less lonely during the writing process. Having so many people accompanying me and supporting me makes me happy even when I'm being urged to update. I'm truly grateful for everyone's companionship and love.
