Chapter 161 Female Celebrities Are Cruel
Zhou Huimin looked at Wang Rui again and said, "Wang Rui, go back to Huanya immediately to borrow some actors. Go tonight and come back tomorrow night. We will start recruiting actors the day after tomorrow. No matter if they are from Hong Kong or mainland directors, as long as they have the ability, we will accept everyone. It would be best if multiple directors can shoot at the same time.
Starting from today, I need to wrap up my scenes within two to three months, so everyone else can take their time. I called this afternoon and asked, as long as I keep exercising, my belly won't be noticeable before five months, and it can even be covered up after six months. Let's try to finish filming before I become noticeably pregnant."

"Okay, I'll book the plane ticket right away." Wang Rui nodded happily. Now everything was stable. With a child to look after, He Daqi could use Zhou Huimin's resources at will in the future.

After Wang Rui left, Zhou Huimin looked at Liu Ying again and said, "Next, I will catch up on my schedule this year. I will tell my fans that I am filming a drama in advance. When the TV series starts airing next year, I will be due to give birth. I will probably have given birth by the time the TV series is finished. By then, I will have recovered for a month and will be back in front of the public once I am back in shape."

Liu Ying calculated the time that Zhou Huimin had been out of the public eye, and suddenly realized that the drama "Shanghai Bund" was really too timely. As long as this drama was released, it would be basically impossible for others to guess that Zhou Huimin took time out to have a child.

Liu Ying suddenly had an idea and clapped her hands. "Vivian, I can take a few more photos of you wearing clothes from different seasons. We can then post them on the Huanya official website or sell them to newspapers. That way, if there are any rumors, fans can use these photos to clarify them."

"That's a good idea! Let's shoot now." Zhou Huimin immediately nodded in agreement when she heard that.

He Daqi, who was watching from the side, twitched his lips. Female celebrities are really ruthless. They actually want to have both career and family, and they have to make so many calculations when having a child.

He Daqi suddenly had an idea. Wow! Is it possible that other female celebrities have also found time to give birth to children?
Jingle Bell!
The phone rang.

He Daqi saw the courtyard and immediately answered the call: "Hello, grandma."

"Daqi, have you taken your friend to see the doctor? What did the doctor say? Why haven't you come back yet?"

He Daqi was a little confused today. When he heard what the old lady said, he remembered that he had not called Siheyuan to tell them that he would not be going back tonight.

"Grandma, my friend has acute gastroenteritis. He's been on IV drip for a whole day and now he's completely exhausted. I had a hard time getting him home. I have to stay here to take care of him tonight, so I won't be going back yet."

"Oh, another friend you met on the set? Young people these days are so careless living out on their own. Okay, I get it."

After hanging up the phone, He Daqi looked at Zhou Huimin and Liu Ying busying around, a little dazed. He really wanted to remind Zhou Huimin to be careful with her belly, but seeing that she didn't look like a pregnant woman at all, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

……

……

Feng Jingyao finally used Jiang Wen. He Daqi didn't know him but others knew him. He put on some makeup to make him look older and his eyes more fierce. Tell me, does he look like a thick-faced and black-hearted gangster?

Ever since he heard that this crew would accept any director, his eyes became bright.

Even though the staff reminded him several times: "Teacher Jiang Wen, you have already got the script, the next step is to interview other actors."

He happily stayed in the interview room without moving a muscle, looking at the director that He Daqi had asked Ma Yingjun to find. He smiled and waited for a long time before speaking, "Old Tian, ​​if you don't go back to being a producer, how can you be willing to come out and be a director?"

The Old Tian mentioned by Jiang Wen is skinny and has the same unshaven beard as Jiang Wen, and a pair of bags under his eyes. If they were to get together and have the same hairstyle, at first glance you would think they were distant relatives.

"I think what you think. What? You got the script and you're still waiting for the New Year? Don't look at me like that. My life has just begun. If I knew you were on the crew, I wouldn't even come." Old Tian said this with a joking tone. He glanced at Jiang Wen with a frown, then lowered his head to continue reading the actor's information. "Can I give you some advice? Is that Hong Kong director over there also the lead director? Is this show going to be shot in two groups?" Jiang Wen asked cheerfully, holding the script and craning his head to look at the information.

"This drama has a huge investment. Judging from its scale, it's not just for profit. I guess there are more than two teams involved. I know what you're thinking. Don't count on it. Give up the idea as soon as possible."

Jiang Wen heard the news he wanted, chuckled, and pulled out a picture from the information and said, "Choose this one. This actor has good acting skills. I've seen his drama."

"It's a bit unremarkable..." Old Tian shook his head.

"Look, you're still sticking with the old trope of an outstanding male lead. Ding Li in this drama is only the second male lead, not a two-hero drama. Even I know this drama is a show the boss uses to promote his employees, and you still want to pick an outstanding one?"

(Who do you choose for Ding Li? Let me know in the group.)
Old Tian looked back and forth among Liu Ye, Huang Haibo and Lin Feng, somewhat undecided.

At this time, Wang Rui pushed the door open and said, "Teacher Tian, ​​if the actor for Ding Li is not yet determined, let's choose someone else first. The supporting roles have been almost selected over there, and we can pair up the two sides."

After seeing Jiang Wen, Wang Rui nodded and greeted him: "Hello, Director Jiang."

"Why are we filming this drama so hastily? It seems like only half of the script is written."

"There are some scheduling issues with our actors, so we need to rush the progress. However, there's no need to rush the filming progress for others. We just need to finish Vivian and Tong Liya's scenes first. I hope you can understand this during filming."

Wang Rui was a little surprised that Jiang Wen had no time to ask him this, but he still politely responded to the reason.

Old Tian stood up and walked over with the information, interrupting Jiang Wen's thoughts of continuing to argue with Wang Rui. He said lightly, "Let's go and check a pair of actors first to see if there is any controversy."

……

……

He Daqi was a little numb watching Zhou Huimin swimming in the water. He looked at the time and couldn't bear it any longer. He complained:

"The doctor said yoga, walking, and swimming are fine, but he didn't say you can do them all the time. You've already been swimming slowly for an hour, and your skin is all wrinkled. And you still don't think it's enough?"

"Not enough, I want to have eight-pack abs like you."

"I'm afraid you'll kill the child!" He Daqi responded unhappily.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'll just exercise slowly and it won't hurt the baby. Some women abroad do the same. When they give birth, they look like they're not pregnant at all, and they recover within two weeks." Zhou Huimin swam to He Daqi's side, looked up at him with a smile and said.
