Chapter 501 A super powerful long-term meal ticket!
Not long after Chen Xianwu and Gao Yan rested, the second group of guests arrived.
Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang are already regular visitors to "The Longing Courtyard". Coming here is no different from going home. However, this is Zhuo Yuanquan's first time here, and everything he sees is new to him.
"This is the courtyard that Brother Fan longed for." Li Xiaodong pushed the door open and walked in, greeting the staff on the scene, "Hello, I'm here again, did Director Liu miss me?"
The camera turned to director Liu Nan, whose face was framed by a frame with the word "Director" written in it. The audience could not see Liu Nan's expression, but at the scene, Liu Nan gave Lai Siu-tung a big smile in return to express his welcome.
Li Xiaodong trotted over, got close to Liu Nan, and whispered to him, "I ordered drinks for everyone. They're in the back. You can share them later!"
After saying this, without waiting for Liu Nan's reaction, he trotted back to Lu Bingyang and Zhuo Yuanquan, pretending that he had not moved, and then used his eyes to hint to Liu Nan to cut this part out when the time comes.
Zhuo Yuanquan didn’t know whether this part would be cut out in the end, but he was very curious about why Lai Siu-tung was so familiar with the director.
Lu Bingyang explained: "Li Xiaodong is a guy who can get along well wherever he goes. He hangs out with the director and photographer on the show, and hangs out with the costume and lighting technicians on the set. In order to look better on camera, this guy does everything he can."
It’s just that Lai Siu-tung has a good personality and a comfortable way of doing things. Plus, with Lin Fan backing him up, he’s popular everywhere and everyone gives him face.
Li Xiaodong hooked his arm around Zhuo Yuanquan's neck and said, "Brother Quan, just treat this place as home. Relax a little and don't worry about the camera or the program process. Just do it the same as usual. Brother Fan will personally supervise the editing of this program after it's recorded. Those devilish editing won't happen here."
Zhuo Yuanquan is indeed a little restrained. Having been in this circle for a long time, he has experienced a lot and knows that some programs will be deliberately edited to create conflicts, which is when the explosive points appear.
Even a popular young actor like Zhuo Yuanquan has to be very careful in variety shows backed by capital, and dare not make any mistakes, for fear that he will be devilishly edited by the program crew and inexplicably be criticized.
Especially before coming, the agent repeatedly warned Zhuo Yuanquan to be careful and not to get cheated.
Although Zhuo Yuanquan thought that the agent was a little paranoid and felt that Lin Fan was not that kind of person, he had suffered so many losses that it was inevitable that he had some conditioned reflexes. He became a little stiff as soon as he entered the camera, fearing that the photographer would capture him with a bad posture or the wrong expression.
Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang obviously saw through it, so they explained it to Zhuo Yuanquan with practical actions.
After this explanation, Zhuo Yuanquan was obviously relieved: "Where is Brother Fan?"
Li Xiaodong pointed to the front door of the accommodation area, "It should be over there, right? Behind the hall is Brother Fan's kitchen. Brother Fan will cook delicious food there when he is free. If he is not at home, he will go to the fields. Hey, I haven't been here for a while. I wonder how the seedlings I planted last time are growing."
Lu Bingyang also said: "Then let's go and take a look together in the afternoon when the sun sets."
Li Xiaodong readily agreed: "Okay."
Seeing that the two were chatting enthusiastically, Zhuo Yuanquan took the initiative to push open the glass door of the hall. Amid the sound of the wind chimes on the door, he called out, "Brother Fan..."
“Bang!”
A medium-sized cannon suddenly rang out beside him, and Zhuo Yuanquan was startled. Before he could react, he saw small pieces of glitter paper falling from above his head. Then there were two more "bang" sounds. Li Xiaodong and Lu Bingyang behind him took out two handheld cannons from somewhere, twisted them, and two fireworks popped out.
Then, Lin Fan came out from behind the bar, pushing a cake cart, and said to Zhuo Yuanquan with a smile on his face, "Happy birthday, Brother Quan!"
"Happy birthday, Brother Quan!" Chen Xianwu and Gao Yan also said.
Behind him, Li Xiaodong put his arm on Lu Bingyang's shoulder and smiled at Zhuo Yuanquan, "Happy birthday, Brother Quan. Are you surprised? This is the birthday surprise we prepared for you!"
Lu Bingyang also offered his blessing: "Happy birthday, Brother Quan!"
Zhuo Yuanquan's eyes were filled with tears. He looked at the surprise that Lin Fan and the other four had specially prepared for him, and his throat choked up a little: "You guys..."
Li Xiaodong came up, pushed Zhuo Yuanquan's back with both hands, and pushed him into the house: "Go in, let's talk first!"
Zhuo Yuanquan followed Li Xiaodong's force and walked into the hall.
Lin Fan pushed the cake cart to the middle of the hall: "Come over and blow out the candles. Hey, I originally wanted to celebrate with you tonight, but if I make this cake myself, I can't give you a surprise. If I order it from outside, it won't taste as good as the one I make. So after a discussion, we decided to just give you a surprise!"
Zhuo Yuanquan's birthday is today. Generally speaking, it is better to celebrate birthdays at midnight today. But since the time has already passed, Lin Fan doesn't care whether it is midnight or not. Anyway, boys don't have to be so particular about their birthdays. It's enough to show your appreciation.
So they hit it off and gave Zhuo Yuanquan a surprise when he entered the house.
Zhuo Yuanquan was indeed very surprised. He did not expect that everyone would specially celebrate his birthday. "Thank you everyone, thank you Brother Fan!"
Li Xiaodong called out, "Come on, Brother Quan, make a wish and blow out the candles. I haven't tasted the cake made by Brother Fan yet!"
Zhuo Yuanquan was also surprised when he saw the beautifully crafted cake in front of him: "Did Brother Fan make this himself?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Of course, Brother Quan, Brother Fan is a great cook. Let Brother Fan prepare a feast for you, the birthday boy, today. We will take advantage of your kindness and enjoy a feast!"
Lin Fan also waved his hand: "Okay, Brother Quan is the birthday boy today, and the birthday boy is the most important. I will make whatever the birthday boy wants to eat later. But now, make a wish and blow out the candles!"
Zhuo Yuanquan was deeply moved. He stood in front of the cake and made a wish in his heart.
Lin Fan called everyone: "Come on, let's sing a birthday song for Brother Quan. Listen to my instructions. I wish you a happy birthday. Ready - go!"
Lin Fan clapped his hands to keep the rhythm while singing a birthday song that is familiar to people on Earth: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."
However, Lin Fan was singing enthusiastically, but he didn't hear anyone else singing along. Not only did they not sing along, they also looked at Lin Fan with a very strange look, which made Lin Fan unable to sing any more.
"What are you looking at?"
Li Xiaodong raised his hand.
Lin Fan called out: "You say."
After getting the approval, Li Xiaodong started talking quickly, "Brother Fan, what song are you singing? Why have I never heard of it before? Did you write a song especially for Brother Quan's birthday?"
Lin Fan: Σ(⊙▽⊙“a? What the hell? Blue Star doesn’t have a Happy Birthday song? It seems, it seems, I have found myself another super awesome long-term meal ticket!
Recently, the copyright of the song "Happy Birthday" has been in the news again. I thought since I saw it, I might as well take a chance. Well, I took a chance.
