Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 213: Lady's Style
South search culture.

As Chen Duling expected, Lin Li took advantage of the weekend to come to the company's office to make final improvements to the script of Better Days.

In addition to him, all the leading actors of the intimate crew also gathered in the conference room of the company's film and television department for the first script reading.

He did not show up, and Wei Shujun led them.

On the one hand, Wei Shujun will be the leader in the crew later on, so it's time to adapt to it in advance. On the other hand, there are too many women who have connections with him, so it's always a good idea to stay away from them.

Although those people would not cause any trouble, he was really afraid that Sister Meng, who was a bit careless, would cause trouble.

Although Xiao Zhang looks gentle and doesn't say anything, the food he cooks when he gets angry is really salty!

So for the sake of his health, he decided to stay calm.

Just find some time in the afternoon to go over and show your face, after all, he still holds the position of screenwriter.

However, things are never that simple.

Seeing that it was just after eleven o'clock, Lin Li decided to go out and solve the lunch problem by himself.

Well, avoid the group of people in the intimate crew in advance.

After slowly packing up the script and putting it in the drawer, Lin Li stood up from his seat and walked out of the office.

As a result, after walking a few steps, he ran into Wei Shujun and a group of people walking out in the hall.

"Hello, Mr. Lin."

"Hello, Director Lin."

"Hello, Teacher Nanxun."

Familiar hellos in unison.

"Hello everyone, are we going to eat?"

Lin Li was cursing in his heart but smiling on the surface.

"I was worried that there would be too many people eating around at noon, so I thought about going out early and starting earlier in the afternoon."

Wei Shujun was like a very smart person, showing off his foresight.

Lin Li looked at his bright smile and really wanted to slap him and give him a big thumbs up.

"Director Wei is really thoughtful. Let's go together. That's perfect."

Feeling the gazes from Wei Shujun behind him, Lin Li knew that it was no longer a good time to find excuses to avoid them.

"Haha, that's great. We're having a big meal today. Let's prepare something delicious. Thank you, Mr. Lin."

Wei Shujun grinned with his teeth bared, and did not forget to greet the actors behind him, which drew a lot of echoes.

Lin Li could only stand aside with a forced smile, speechless and choking.

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. Can I have a free meal, Director Lin?"

A crisp voice suddenly sounded, Lin Li was startled, turned around and saw the dusty Chen Duling walking slowly towards him with two people.

Wei Shujun and his group also looked in the direction of the voice, and after seeing who was coming, they had different thoughts for a moment.

"Dudu, you just came back?"

Lin Li glanced at Zhang Ruonan and the others over there, then took a few steps forward to greet Chen Duling.

"Yes, I just landed at ten o'clock. I thought you should be in the company this weekend, so I came directly here to have lunch with you."

"Now that I see it, it seems like we just caught up."

"How about it, Director Lin, take me with you?"

Chen Duling's usually cold little face was now full of liveliness and her voice was soft and soft.

"Of course, come all together, I'll make the arrangements."

Since he had encountered this situation, Lin Li thought it through and was not panicked at all. He responded to each move accordingly.

"Let's go, everyone."

Lin Li turned around and greeted everyone in the crew, then turned around and walked out side by side with Chen Duling.

Chen Duling paused as she turned around, and nodded slightly to the people in the intimate crew.

He had a faint smile and looked calm.

Everyone in the intimate crew also responded with a smile, but their mindsets were different.

Lu Yangyang, the only one in the crew who had no connection with Lin Li, suddenly discovered that since they met Teacher Nan Xun, the expressions of several female leads in the crew began to be unnatural.

How do you say it? His eyes suddenly light up? Probably like this.

Then, the tragic heroine Chen Duling, who has been in the spotlight recently, appeared, and the eyes of these actresses instantly became wary, or hostile?

Lu Yangyang was very puzzled. Although she also admired Teacher Nan Xun, we are actors and artists ourselves. It is not appropriate to show such an expression when seeing someone having a good relationship with the person we like. Isn't it?

She felt that her little brain was not enough.

"interesting."

Lin Gengxin glanced at the expressions of the female leads around him, then looked at Lin Li and Chen Duling in front of him, as if thinking about something.

As a player in the circle who will never give up on issues of gender, he can naturally see that most of the female protagonists in the crew have a relationship with this teacher Nan Xun.

It seems like we are of the same mind!

Lin Gengxin felt that he must get closer to Teacher Nan Xun and take time to discuss his experience in this area.

They moved to a more distinctive Cantonese restaurant near Nanxun Culture, and the group asked for a large private room and filed in under the guidance of the waiter.

Chen Duling sat down naturally to Lin Li's right, took off her windbreaker and revealed the white shirt underneath, looking simple and capable.

She raised her eyes and smiled at Lin Li, then turned around to face everyone.

Wei Shujun sat to the left of Lin Li, and the other leading actors followed suit.

"Speaking of which, as the screenwriter, I haven't formally greeted you all since the audition, so today is a good opportunity for you all to get to know each other."

"I won't be on the set often in the future, but I will be with our main cast. If you have any questions, you can always communicate with me. I will also take time to visit the crew. I hope everyone can work together to make our drama a success."

"thank you all."

After sitting down, Lin Li glanced at the faces that were familiar or unfamiliar, and smiled and said something encouraging.

The leading actors naturally responded one after another, most of them looking a little reserved. "Teacher Nanxun, you have to spin a bottle! I've seen the trending search of you drinking, it's really fierce."

The moment he opened his mouth, there was a strong smell of corn. Who else could it be but Lin Gou?

"Teacher Lin is right, but you guys still have to read the script this afternoon, and I'm also busy with the movie script this afternoon. Let's do it next time. Next time I'll visit the set, and we won't leave until we're drunk."

Lin Li looked at Lin Gengxin and responded to him in a cheerful voice, and made an appointment for the next drinking party.

"Hey, I don't dare ask you to call me teacher."

"It's settled then. You can't keep fish."

Lin Gengxin waved his hand and corrected the address in a thick accent, and his words were very interesting.

"Sure, I'm just afraid you'll raise fish, so don't beg for mercy when the time comes."

Lin Li was still very confident in his drinking capacity and started to talk nonsense.

He quite likes Lin Gengxin's personality, he's carefree.

He remembered some variety shows he had watched in his previous life. Lin Gengxin was a very nice person, except for his rich love history.

Very straightforward, a typical northerner.

"No, I will definitely accompany you to the end."

Lin Gengxin also responded happily. After a few words of communication, he found that Teacher Nanxun's words were very down-to-earth and very much to his liking.

Afterwards, Lin Li took turns chatting with some other actors he had never met before, but deliberately skipped Zhang Ruonan and the others.

We know each other very well, so I’m afraid I can’t hold it together.

But he didn't speak, someone else spoke for him.

"Ruonan, I didn't expect to see you again as Director Lin's leading actress. You two are really destined to be together."

Chen Duling looked at Zhang Ruonan, who was not far from her, with a smile on her lips, as if hinting at something.

"Yes, I didn't expect that I would be so lucky to have the opportunity to work with Nanxun Culture again. But Sister Duling, you are wrong. The director this time is not Director Lin, but Director Wei."

Zhang Ruonan smiled faintly and corrected Chen Duling's words.

"Oh yeah, see, I was wrong."

"But after our tragedy, you are the only one who cooperated with Nanxun Culture again. It is really fate."

"Did you secretly treat Director Lin to a big meal while we were away from the capital?"

"You can't eat alone. If there's anything delicious, you must call me."

Chen Duling's words were humorous and her face was full of smiles, but there was something in her eyes that was hard to explain.

The other people at the table were also chatting, but the few people who were nearby noticed something was wrong and pricked up their ears to pay attention.

Sitting next to Chen Duling was Meng Ziyi, followed by Li Yitong and then Zhang Ruonan.

So they both heard the conversation between Chen Duling and Zhang Ruonan clearly. For some reason, both of them looked a little unnatural.

In the entertainment industry, no one is a fool, and they heard Chen Duling's implication clearly.

The same thing happened to both of them. They felt guilty just by listening to it.

After all, it seemed like he was dancing in front of his real girlfriend.

"Don't worry, Sister Duling, I will definitely call you if there's anything delicious."

"Sister Duling, do you have any plans for the future? Have you accepted a new script, or are you planning to take a break?"

Zhang Ruonan looked normal, with a faint smile on his face.

There was no change in his expression, and he even seemed concerned about Chen Duling's future arrangements.

"I don't have any plans for the near future. I just finished my busy schedule and plan to take a good rest. I will also take some time to carefully select the script for my next play."

"Oh, by the way, maybe I'll have to ask Director Lin to help me check it when the time comes."

Chen Duling first answered Zhang Ruonan, then turned her gaze to Lin Li beside her and made a request in a playful manner.

"These are all small matters. I am waiting for your orders."

Lin Li looked at her from the side and shrugged nonchalantly, very cooperative.

"Thank you Director Lin. I'm currently studying cooking skills. When I make some progress, I can ask Director Lin to be the first person to taste it."

Chen Duling raised her eyebrows coquettishly, with a charming look on her face, as if she was a flower bud about to bloom.

"It would be an honor. I'm at your service at any time."

Lin Li arched his brows, his voice full of anticipation.

Chen Duling also looked at him, and the two of them looked at each other, with a faint sweetness in the air.

Although other people at the table were chatting in groups of three or four, they were all looking over here, and they probably had an idea of ​​what was happening after seeing this scene.

"You've never been so gentle to me, giving me whatever I want, huh!"

Meng Ziyi, who was standing aside, secretly complained in his heart, feeling quite indignant.

"Sister Tongtong and Ziyi can also come together if they are still in the capital."

"I will probably be staying in Beijing for a while. If you and Ruonan are bored, you can come and play with us and study cooking together."

"I remember that Ruonan seems to be a good cook, right?"

Chen Duling glanced at Li Yitong and the other two. She looked weak and fragile, but her smile was very unrestrained.

Li Yitong and Meng Ziyi understood and both responded with a smile.

"I can cook some simple dishes, but I will be joining a production team later, so I may not have much time."

Zhang Ruonan smiled faintly, with regret in her voice.

"There will be a chance."

Chen Duling stared at her, with an inexplicable look in her cold eyes.

"Well, there will be."

Zhang Ruonan also looked at her, her eyebrows slightly curved.
