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

Chapter 279 Sister puts on clothes and speaks toughly
Qin Lan obviously let go too early.

"Sister Qin Lan, don't be so artificial, try to be more natural. The heroine's confidence in herself has been accumulated over many years, and she doesn't need to rely on external expressions to show it."

"Try to keep your tone and posture calm. As an underground party member, the heroine has received education in faith. Her attitude towards others can be cold but not arrogant."

"Keep your lines and actions simple, don't try to be cool, this is not the so-called 'female lead drama'..."

"..."

Listening to Meng Bai's various requests, the smile on Qin Lan's face became a little stiff, and his eyes were already filled with murderous intent.

This guy said nice things at the beginning, such as "Our director has high requirements", "I will speak for you", and "I will definitely be on your side".

But in the end, he was the one who made the most suggestions throughout the audience.

What a "stinky brother"!
On the other side, Yang Lei, who was watching the whole scene, also felt a little emotional.

He originally thought that Qin Lan had some relationship with Meng Bai, which was why he got the opportunity to play this role.

After all, the male protagonist has tried several people, but the female protagonist only has herself at the moment.

But now it seems that I was overthinking it. The producer Meng next to me was really being very picky.

Even when he thought it was enough, Meng Bai would still have new requests.

He was even a little worried at one point that if he asked for so much, the other party would directly refuse.

After all, Qin Lan is at least a quasi-first-tier star and has no shortage of roles to play.

But unexpectedly, apart from having a slightly bad expression, he was very cooperative and made adjustments according to my requirements.

Tsk, both the male and female actors are so dedicated, it looks like this project will be very comfortable to shoot.

Finally, the audition was over.

Under Meng Bai's "slightly harsh" request, it was finally decided that Qin Lan would play the female lead Chen Jiaying.

"Thank you, director. Thank you, producer Meng."

Qin Lan thanked him with a smile, but of course he said the last sentence with gritted teeth.

The audition ended and everyone left.

Qin Lan walked up to Meng Bai and said with a gentle smile, "Producer Meng, I still have some questions about the role and the plot. Can you talk about it?"

"Of course." Meng Bai had a fearless and natural look on his face. "Come to my office."

As he said this, he said hello to Yang Lei and went upstairs with Qin Lan.

"Click!"

As soon as Meng Bai entered the room, he heard the crisp sound of the door being locked behind him.

He turned around and before he could say anything, Qin Lan "viciously" pushed him against the wall.

"Brother, didn't you say you would side with me? Is this how you side with me?"

Qin Lan's declared height is 165cm, and regardless of whether it is true or not, she looks quite petite in front of Meng Bai.

Looking down at the other person's "fierce" expression, Meng Bai couldn't help but smiled and said, "I suddenly realized that from this angle, sister, you are really cute."

Qin Lan frowned: "What do you mean? Am I not cute from other angles?"

"It's beautiful from other angles, it's different."

"..."

The corner of Qin Lan's mouth twitched, as if he wanted to laugh but held it back.

She reminded herself in her heart not to forget what the other party had just done, to remain firm in her attitude, and not to be fooled by a little sweet talk.

but……

But he just said he was cute!
Looking at Meng Bai's face, even though Qin Lan was full of anger just now, he had softened now.

"Then, why did you ask for so much just now?"

"Isn't this to help you?"

"Are you helping me?" Qin Lan had an expression that said "Do you think I'm stupid?"

"Of course." Meng Bai said with certainty: "For the female lead this time, you have to set high standards. Even if you don't mention it, Director Yang Lei will have to mention it. In comparison, at least if I raise it, it will be more in line with your advantages. Didn't you find that the suggestions I raised are exactly what you can accomplish?"

"Ah?" Qin Lan blinked, "Ah?"

How should I put it? It seemed like something was wrong, but I also felt that what he said made sense.

"Okay, stop thinking about it. The final result is good anyway, right?"

As Meng Bai spoke, he gently embraced his sister and sat on the sofa.

"Are you still busy today?" Qin Lan looked at him with loving eyes.

"Why, Sister Qin Lan, are you planning to guest-star as my secretary?"

"Bah, you are the secretary. I should be the boss even though I am a guest star."

Not to mention, this sister was wearing a grey over-the-knee coat with a white shirt and a short skirt today, which really looked quite business-like.

"Okay."

Meng Bai also became interested. He stood up, walked behind her, stretched out his hand and pressed her shoulder: "Mr. Qin, you have been working so hard. Do you need a massage?" Qin Lan rolled her eyes at him. What massage? She just wanted to take advantage of her.

But she didn't refuse and nodded gently: "Okay, let me see how good your skills are."

Meng Bai pinched it a few times casually: "How do you feel, Mr. Qin?"

"Just so-so."

"Then it seems I have to show my real skills."

As Meng Bai spoke, the area of his hands gradually slid downwards.

"Hmm~"

Qin Lan snorted softly, bit her lips lightly, and couldn't help but look up at him.

Meng Bai smiled and said, "Boss Qin, there is coldness in your body. Let me use my family's unique skills to help you relieve it."

As he said that, he turned to the front, helped Qin Lan up and let her lean on the sofa.

Next, it is naturally a beautiful scene.

……

Two hours later.

"Beep——"

With an electronic sound, Meng Bai got up and turned on the ventilation function of the air conditioner. The faint strange smell in the room began to slowly dissipate.

Qin Lan leaned on the sofa with a little sweat on his face.

Meng Bai sat next to her again: "How about it, Mr. Qin, is it okay now?"

"Alright, not bad."

"Tsk, it's OK, sister. You can speak more confidently when you put on clothes. I don't know who was yelling at you to be quieter just now."

Qin Lan gave him a lazy look and didn't bother to refute.

She is not one of those little girls, and she doesn't take this level of "attack" seriously at all.

The two chatted casually, and the topic gradually turned to Leshi.com.

"Looking back now, it turns out that your feeling was right."

Qin Lan sighed: "Otherwise, we would probably be trapped like them."

"It's not that my feeling is right, it's just that my greed is a little weaker than theirs." Meng Bai said.

There have been a lot of negative news about LeTV in the past two years, but they are usually suppressed quickly.

But ordinary people cannot access it, but those famous and wealthy investors cannot be unaware of it.

It’s just that many people think that the last moment is still a long way off and want to earn as much as possible.

Unfortunately, Boss Jia's wall-pasting skills were even better. Without making any noise, he managed to create a big bomb.

Of course, not everyone is that smart, and there are always some who really believe it.

"I saw Liu Tao at an event a few days ago, but I didn't even have the nerve to say hello to her." Qin Lan said gloomily, "And Weiwei, she doesn't keep in touch with me much now."

Meng Bai glanced at her and said, "Sister, are you feeling a little sorry for me now? Are you secretly glad that you ran away in time?"

"Snapped!"

Qin Lan slapped Meng Bai lightly in anger and said, "You are the only one who knows so much."

But after the photoshoot, she couldn't help but caress him twice.

"By the way, isn't The Great Wall of Leshi Films premiering next week? Have you been invited?"

"Our cooperation with Arclight and Leshi.com has been terminated. How could they invite me?" Meng Bai shook his head, "But..."

"But what?"

"But I am a little worried about the performance of this movie."

Qin Lan was puzzled: "What are you worried about? Arclight has no investment."

"Arc Light didn't invest, but China Film Group and Wanda did." Meng Bai sighed, "It doesn't matter if this movie fails, I'm just worried about the impact on our other project."

In addition to Leshi Films, the investors of "The Great Wall" also include China Film and Hollywood's Legendary Pictures.

Legendary Pictures was acquired by Wanda last year.

Coincidentally, China Film Group and Wanda are both the main investors in "The Wandering Earth" project.

What Meng Bai is most worried about is that if the film loses too much money, it will affect Guo Fan.

After all, the total investment of this "super production" co-produced by China and the United States is over 10 billion.

Even if the two families are wealthy, they will still feel bad for a long time if they suffer a loss.

What’s more, Wanda has not had a good time in the past two years.
