11. Crew Party
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Guan Miao and Deng Ling set off on time.
The restaurant for the dinner was not far away, and Guan Miao thought about going there early so that he could maybe get some more food to fill his stomach.
Otherwise, after drinking all night, not only will you feel bad the next day, but your stomach will also feel uncomfortable for a long time.
When Guan Miao arrived at the designated box, she found that there were already quite a few people inside, but fortunately there was someone she knew.
"Director Zheng, Senior Qiao Lu, you're here so early?"
Generally speaking, everyone assumes that the director and the male and female protagonists must be on time, which is also a symbol of status.
As for some unknown actors, they come early in order to grab a slightly closer position so that they have a chance to talk to the leading actors and make a way for themselves.
Zheng Yuan waved at her, motioning her to sit next to him. Guan Miao paused, she could feel curious, scrutinizing, and probing gazes coming from all directions.
Seeing that she didn't move, Zheng Yuan seemed to lose his patience. "Just come over when I told you to. What are you thinking? How come I, a director, can't even decide who sits next to me?"
When Zheng Yuan said this, some people naturally smiled apologetically, "How could that be? Director Zheng is the director, so he naturally has the right to decide anything about the crew. It's just a position, I don't think anyone would care."
How could I not care!
If there really was only one seat available, why didn't they take it? Did they not want to? Did they feel unworthy?
Even at such a seemingly fair large gathering, people without status or background can only sit in the back row and watch others chatting and laughing.
This was said quite nicely. Guan Miao looked towards the source of the voice and saw a girl about her age.
The girl's appearance could be described as a pretty girl, but her eyes were too flattering and calculating, which ruined her features and lowered her looks from 7 points to 5 points.
If someone gives Guan Miao a way out, it would be ungrateful for him to refuse.
After saying goodbye to Deng Ling and An Jing, she sat down on the director's right. If we really talk about her status, she is slightly higher than the male lead of the show, Qiao Lu.
Just when she was worried about whether Qiao Lu would have any objections, Qiao Lu spoke up, "Guan Miao, I met you at the last audition, and you performed well."
Guan Miao's eyes lit up after being praised, and he became much more energetic. "Really? Thank you for the compliment, Senior Qiao. I will continue to work hard."
"Well, we have a lot of scenes together. If you don't feel confident, you can come and act with me."
"Is it really possible?"
Guan Miao never expected that Qiao Lu would be so friendly. The rumors must have misled me!
"certainly."
"Thank you, Mr. Qiao Lu."
The three of them sat for a while, and then several actors with more roles arrived one after another. They were a little surprised when they saw Zheng Yuan and Qiao Lu, and their eyes were a little more wary when they fell on Guan Miao.
Guan Miao naturally saw what was in their eyes and guessed that they would check her background when they returned.
Go ahead and check it out. Ever since she turned in her passport, her personal information has been classified as highly confidential.
The information that can be found on the Internet now has been released by Chai Yue after repeated screening, and is the most useless.
But after this incident, people in the group shouldn't deliberately provoke her, right?
Because Zheng Yuan and Qiao Lu arrived early, the other leading actors who received the news rushed over, fearing that they would be the last one.
Therefore, everyone gathered five minutes earlier than the originally scheduled time.
Zheng Yuan didn't say anything about it, he just called the waiter to serve the food.
While waiting for the meal, Guan Miao was socializing with Ran Yunhua on his right.
"So Sister Guan Miao is the actress who plays the Seventh Princess. We will have many scenes together in the future, so I would like to ask Sister Guan for your guidance."
This is quite untrue. After all, Ran Yunhua has played the leading female role in a hit drama, so her acting skills are not a problem.
But now she asked Guan Miao to give her more advice. What could she possibly teach her? It would only make people think she was arrogant.
"Teacher Ran, you are so polite. I am just a newbie. How can I teach you anything?"
Ran Yunhua was about to say something, but Guan Miao, with his sharp eyes, changed the subject and said, "Yellow croaker is at its most delicious at this time of year. Teacher Ran, don't miss it."
Please stop talking, I still want to eat!
Ran Yunhua was interrupted by her and saw her eyes shining as she looked at the food on the table, and she couldn't help but look down on her in her heart.
You really haven't seen the world. These things can be eaten all the time. What's so strange about them?
In this occasion today, who is really here to eat?
However, no matter how Ran Yunhua felt bad for Guan Miao in her heart, she still looked like a gentle older sister on the surface, and even took the initiative to help her pick up two mantis shrimps.
"Eat slowly, there's no rush."
Eat, eat, the fatter the better, and it would be best if you eat until you lose your character.
Guan Miao didn't know what was going on in Ran Yunhua's mind, he just felt that Director Zheng was so thoughtful.
This table of seafood is tailor-made for her!
After eating green leafy vegetables for a week, I finally have the chance to eat meat, especially seafood which is not easy to make you fat. I have to eat more.
I don’t know when the next big meal will be.
Her diligent eating finally caught Zheng Yuan's attention. "Eat less. Have you forgotten you need to lose weight? Your costumes are due for custom-making in two days. If you gain weight, your dimensions won't be accurate. You'll have to pay for the alterations yourself."
"Don't worry, Director Zheng, this is my indulgent meal for the month. After tonight's meal, I'll start eating fat-reducing meals every day."
Ran Yunhua also immediately said: "Fat-reducing meal? I have a good nutritionist here. The weight-loss meal he prepared is very effective. How about recommending it to Sister Guan?"
Guan Miao waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't bother, Teacher Ran. My nutritionist is also good. The effect is there, and the taste is good too."
Seeing her refusal, Ran Yunhua looked regretful, but did not force her.
During the banquet, people were drinking and chatting with each other, which was quite lively.
It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when the party was over. When I walked out of the box, I was blown by the cool breeze. It was really cold in June.
Deng Ling was at the agent's table. She didn't drink much and, together with An Jing, helped the somewhat dazed Guan Miao into the crew's car. Ran Yunhua happened to be traveling with them.
I don’t know if it was really fate or artificial, but after getting off the car, Guan Miao forced himself to say goodbye to Ran Yunhua, at least he did enough to save face.
In the room, Guan Miao had not returned yet, and the people in the studio did not dare to sleep. Seeing her come back drunk, they quickly brought her hangover medicine and water.
Sun Mi looked at Guan Miao worriedly, "How could he be so drunk?"
"It's okay," Guan Miao's cheeks flushed, but he was quite sober. "I just looked very drunk. Actually, I only drank three cups, which is not much."
"Take some medicine, even if it's not much. After that, go to sleep. Zheng Yuan said there's no mission tomorrow morning, so just arrive at the training ground at 1 p.m."
"knew."
After she finished taking the medicine, everyone left, leaving only a white cat to accompany her.
After the room quieted down, San San jumped up and slapped her hand with his cat paw, "Drunkard."
