Sheng Yuan's entire attention and emotions were focused on her phone, and she was completely unaware of how many eyes were on her from the outside world.
The girl with rosy lips and white teeth was holding a mobile phone, leaning back in a single soft leather chair. Her misty almond eyes were emitting fragmented light, and were transparent like petals of crystal. An obvious smile spilled from the ends of her sparse and lightly curled eyelashes.
I don’t know what she saw on her phone, but she became completely limp.
“…”
There was no trace of the cold and emotionless look on his face as he rejected Ling Lan's proposal to act with Xu Lizhi without any hesitation three minutes ago.
It was really rare to see Sheng Yuan like this. At least, in the more than half a month they were in the same crew, they had never seen this side of the girl.
This can't help but make everyone very curious -
What message did the person on the other end of the phone send her during this period of time?
The person who can make Sheng Yuan become like this, pursing her lips to hold back her smile, must be someone who speaks with depth, is quite interesting, and has a high emotional intelligence.
How could they have imagined that?
The person on the other end of the phone responded with either a plain "hmm" or a concise "oh", which are the most common response words in spoken language.
Before anyone could figure out what was going on, Sheng Yuan put down her phone. Maybe the other party had other things to do, so the chat was over.
Some people saw clearly that after the phone was placed on the table again, the smile in the girl's eyes faded a lot, but in a moment, she leaned back in her chair and returned to her nonchalant and lazy look.
It was as if the intimate and gentle girl they had just seen was just an illusion created by their brain.
“…”
However, the phone with a pure black frame was silent for less than ten seconds before it rang again. It was not a message, but a call.
Sheng Yuan was packing up her lunch boxes and stood up to throw them into the trash can. She glanced at her phone and saw the screen clearly, but this time, she didn't touch the phone immediately.
The cell phone rang tirelessly, but she was still closing the lid of her lunch box slowly and carefully, ignoring it and letting it ring.
It was completely and obviously different from the way I treated the message just now.
Ling Lan, who was sitting at the next table, subconsciously glanced sideways, and glanced at Sheng Yuan's phone. Her movements were very covert and seemed casual, so no one could tell anything.
It just so happened that Sheng Yuan had finished packing and held the still ringing phone in her hand. She only had time to see the number avatar on the caller ID.
A fleeting blue shadow.
It looks very much like a designed LOGO trademark pattern.
Because Chen Liu, who was sitting quietly nearby, had also finished his meal, he quickly cleaned up and stood up to throw away the garbage. Young Master Xia was playing a game and his crystal exploded. He looked up and said hurriedly.
"Wow, you guys didn't even wait for me!"
Then he didn't care about the game anymore and started to shovel mouthfuls of rice into his mouth. He and Ling Lan were close to each other, and Ling Lan was afraid that he would notice her actions just now, so she had to secretly look away.
So, no matter how many profile pictures there are, she can no longer see them.
…
After lunch and a short break, the crew's work progress will continue as usual.
The camera was running at high speed. The actors and staff were busy running around without stopping. Gao An's stern command from Director Jiang's pager spread throughout the entire shooting area.
The shooting is in full swing and non-stop.
Everyone was on high alert, tense and afraid of making mistakes. No one dared to delay the process because according to Director Jiang's plan, the filming of the location shooting had to be completed within today.
The crew only set up this venue for three days. The rental price was astronomical, but they could only afford it for three days. Time is money.
Most of the afternoon has passed, and so far, everything has been going smoothly without any major errors.
If things continue like this, it seems there shouldn't be any major problems in completing today's plan.
However--
Just a moment after he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly saw the person in charge of the venue coming over to find Director Jiang.
After Jiang Mingxin gave a few instructions to the director team, he took off his headset, stood up hurriedly and left the video screen.
About five minutes later.
Jiang Mingxin came back, but his complexion had become very bad, extremely ugly, with a frown and a gloomy look, as if he was holding back a storm.
When the assistant director and others saw Director Jiang's expression, they were all stunned and began to make anxious guesses.
What happened? Jiang Mingxin did not return to his work immediately, but stood there, stiff as a sculpture. He gritted his teeth, and then waved his hand and gave orders the next second.
"Let everyone stop."
“…”
Now everyone in the director team was really stunned.
He didn't quite understand what Jiang Mingxin meant, and suspected that he had misheard. He was surprised and said, "W-what?!"
"... Director Jiang, why are you stopping..."
Jiang Mingxin frowned, closed his eyes, and then opened them again, repeating in a dry voice: "Ask the equipment team to dismantle all the cameras, and the props team to move all the things back to the car."
"You have to vacate this place within fifteen minutes."
“No more filming.”
The cold voice was like a landmine that exploded with a loud bang, catching everyone off guard.
“…”
"No, why?!"
"Director Jiang! What are you doing?! What's wrong?! What happened?!"
"Why did we suddenly stop filming for no reason?"
A group of people were in disbelief, asking questions and doubts, they totally didn't understand.
…
Five minutes ago, the venue manager came to Jiang Mingxin and told him——
A distinguished guest is coming over to play here and will arrive in about half an hour. The entire crew of "Glory Family" must clear out the area within fifteen minutes.
Judging from the respectful and firm attitude of the person in charge, one can imagine how important this so-called distinguished guest is and they cannot afford to offend him.
These guests didn't even make an appointment in advance to come, it was just a spur-of-the-moment, sudden idea.
A simple phone call forced the crew to stop filming halfway through.
Jiang Mingxin used the lease contract to reason with him, but the person in charge remained calm, without even raising his eyebrows, and directly expressed his willingness to compensate for the breach of contract and refund the entire day's rent. He showed how rich and powerful he was, and his tone left no room for negotiation at all.
But this would interrupt the entire crew's plan and directly affect many subsequent processes, with a ripple effect.
Jiang Mingxin was so angry that he almost had a heart attack on the spot.
