Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 236 Who says you can’t get what you want?

Just as Meng Bai said, the crew arrived very quickly.

"Di-"

A burst of car horns sounded, interrupting the romantic atmosphere in the car.

"call……"

Nini sat up and looked out the window, only to see two headlights on the road in the distance coming towards them quickly.

“It came so quickly.”

She couldn't help but mutter.

Meng Bai said with a smile: "You are not cold anymore."

Nini raised her eyebrows and gently lifted his chin with her white and tender fingers: "I am more than just not cold now..."

She is two years older than Meng Bai, and she is not the kind of little sister who just waits obediently.

It was the first time that Meng Bai felt like he was being teased. Even before when he was with Qin Lan, he was the one who took the initiative. It felt weird.

Just when I was about to fight back, Nini had already turned over and returned to the passenger seat, starting to tidy up her clothes.

The sound of the speeding engine was clearly audible, so he had to suppress his emotions temporarily, turned on the car's hazard lights, and opened the door to ventilate the air.

"laugh--"

Brakes sounded and an SUV stopped nearby.

As soon as the car parked, the door opened and the driver rushed over: "Sorry, Mr. Meng, I'm late."

As he said this, he handed over a blanket.

"It's okay. It's not that cold in the car." Meng Bai waved his hand to indicate that it was unnecessary. "We'll be there in an hour, which is already fast."

It took him about an hour and a half to look at the navigation plan.

Now the time is reduced by one third, which shows how anxious the driver was when he came here.

Ni Ni's assistant also came along, and the girl also took a thick coat and put it on her.

"Sister, are you okay?" the young assistant asked with concern.

"It's okay." Nini smiled nonchalantly, "It's a good opportunity to experience the desert scenery at night."

The assistant looked her up and down to see if she was okay. When his eyes fell on her face, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Nini noticed her abnormality.

"Sister, your lipstick seems to be a little smudged."

“Ah——” Nini said calmly, “Maybe I rubbed it when I was drinking water before. It’s cold outside, let’s get in the car.”

Isn't it waterproof? How could it be stained by drinking water? The assistant was a little confused, but didn't ask any more questions and followed him back to the car.

The driver looked at the condition of Meng Bai's car and shook his head, saying, "There's nothing we can do, Mr. Meng. We have to find someone to tow the car tomorrow."

"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow. Let's go back first."

Anyway, there is a location for it, and it’s late at night, so we can’t let a wild horse steal it.

There was no need to drive so fast on the way back. On the contrary, because the big boss was sitting next to him, the driver was more steady.

By the time we got back to the crew's hotel, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, which was about nine-thirty local time.

After having a meal together, Meng Bai thanked the driver again, and then he and his assistant sent Ni Ni back to the room.

"Thank you for troubling you today, Teacher Meng."

Ni Ni turned her back to the assistant and winked at Meng Bai: "'Wait', go to bed early."

Meng Bai nodded naturally: "You too, you've worked hard today. I'll talk to Director Li for you and ask him to take a day off tomorrow and have a good rest."

"Okay, then thank you, Teacher Meng."

The two looked at each other tacitly, and then Meng Bai turned and left.

After returning to the room, Meng Bai took a hot shower and changed his clothes.

After finishing the whole set, he began to look at the financial bills of the crew.

Time passed little by little, until after twelve o'clock, there was a gentle knock on the door.

He stood up, walked over and opened the door, and a slender figure walked in leisurely.

The one who came was naturally Nini. Compared with when she just came back, she had changed her clothes.

A loose grey coat was casually thrown on his body, and black tights were worn underneath.

It’s a very simple combination, but combined with her 170cm height and unique temperament, it has a unique charm.

It’s no wonder that her acting career has been on a downward slope over the years, but her fashion resources have been getting better and better.

"I thought Teacher Meng would be so busy that the room would be messy."

Nini walked into the room and looked around.

Maybe she felt the heater in the room was a little hot, so she took off her coat and put it on the sofa, revealing her white shirt and curvaceous figure.

"It's because we're busy that there's no mess, and there's someone to clean up the hotel."

Meng Bai got two glasses of wine from the lounge and walked over to pass them over: "It's been cold all night, have a drink to drive away the cold."

Nini smiled, took the cup and drank it all without refusing.

The two were very close, so Meng Bai could clearly see the other person's still slightly damp hair and the faint floral scent mixed with the smell of shower gel.

Apparently, like him, the girl also washed off the dust on her body before coming over.

That would explain why she was so late.

After drinking a glass of red wine, Nini's cheeks turned red.

Putting the cup aside, she stared at Meng Bai with straightforward emotions in her eyes.

Neither of them is a pure boy, so Meng Bai naturally understands the other party.

Putting down the cup in his hand, he reached out and pulled the girl into his arms, continuing the interaction that had been interrupted before. After a long time, until they both felt their breathing becoming disordered, the two finally separated.

Meng Bai reached out and gently held Ni Ni's knees, and the latter understood and followed suit.

The two long legs were raised and wrapped around each other's waist, just enough to wrap around and clamp.

"To the bed?" Meng Bai leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Or here?"

"what ever."

In that case, Meng Bai held Ni Ni's perky little butt with both hands and walked into the inner room in this hugging way.

The door was slammed shut.

What followed was the lingering, graceful and charming music that echoed throughout the night.
-
At noon the next day, the sun was shining brightly.

Nini woke up from her sweet sleep.

Glancing around, I saw clothes scattered on the ground, showing the remains of a battle.

Feeling the soreness and comfort in her body, Nini couldn't help but recall last night's battle, and then smiled with satisfaction.

Obviously, she used her own personal experience to prove that "Teacher Meng" is more than just a facade.

She picked up a shirt and put it on, then walked out barefoot.

Outside the house, Meng Bai was looking at the computer. Hearing the sound from the inner room, he turned around and saw two long white legs.

I have to say, among the girls I know, this girl has the most beautiful legs.

Well - it doesn't seem very objective to say this, after all, I haven't seen Mr. Li's real situation yet.

You are too careless. You must practice carefully later. How can scientific statistics rely on guessing?

"I asked for leave for you and Director Li. He said he was feeling unwell due to a cold last night, so he needs to rest today."

Ni Ni walked over to him and sat cross-legged on the sofa beside him: "Teacher Meng seems to be very experienced in predicting leave requests."

"This is called knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." Meng Bai said: "There is food on the table."

"Forget it, I can't eat it."

Nini raised her hand to support her head and glanced at Meng Bai's computer screen.

"I didn't expect that Teacher Meng actually likes watching variety shows?"

"As someone who works in film and television, it's normal for me to pay attention to variety shows." Meng Bai said casually.

It seemed to make sense. Nini tilted his head and thought about it, but he always felt that this style of painting was not in tune with his identity.

"What show?"

"Celebrity Detective."

Nini thought about it and decided that she had never heard of this name before, so it might be a new program.

However, the name "Detective" sounds very much like the style of Arclight Films.

She asked out of curiosity, and sure enough, the chief screenwriter of this program was Meng Bai.

Not surprising then.

Nini also became interested, moved behind Meng Bai and started watching with him.

"Hey, is that Mr. He? And that one, is that Sabining? Wow, the two of them can appear on the same show!"

Just as Meng Bai thought, the first thing that surprised the girl was the two main MCs.

This was also the biggest highlight of the "Star Detective" program during its early promotion.

Many viewers were attracted by the combination of "He Sa".

What they are watching now is the first episode that has just been aired.

Meng Bai looked at the number of views. It had been aired for almost two days, and the data displayed on the front desk was 1200 million, which was pretty good.

In comparison, the barrage and comment sections are particularly lively.

Some discussed the show, some discussed the members, some argued about the reasoning and plot, and so on.

As one of the original members, Li Yitong also participated in the recording of the first episode.

Meng Bai paid special attention to the comments related to her shots. Most of them were like "so beautiful" and "who is this", and a few were discussing her performance, but there were no bad comments.

Nini naturally noticed his actions.

Although he didn't know the girl in the show, Meng Bai paused for an unusually long time when her shot came on. Everyone knew that the two must be more familiar with each other.

Is she your girlfriend?
Probably not, Meng Bai said he was single. Judging from his tone, he must be telling the truth.

After thinking for a while, Nini burst out laughing.

What does it have to do with you? Why bother yourself with these things?

She turned her attention back to the show and after watching it for a while, she became interested.

Role-playing, simulating plots, reasoning about murders...these elements combined are quite attractive.

Although I started reading from the middle, I was able to understand the whole story because of the discussions and descriptions.

Unconsciously, she also began to frown and think about the truth along with the other program members.

On the other side, Meng Bai took out his cell phone and called He Chen.

"...I just watched the final broadcast version, and it was still the same as when I watched the final version before. The overall atmosphere was a bit too serious."

"It has little to do with Mr. Sa. His serious style is what the show needs. The key lies in the other members."

"My opinion is that we can rotate a guest with strong variety show talent in each episode, like Da Zhangwei we talked about before, or Guo Qilin is also fine..."

A new program certainly cannot be perfect from the beginning; it can only be constantly adjusted while it is being broadcast.

Anyway, as long as you can grasp the plot design and the two backbones "He Sa", there will be a lot of room for trial and error.
