Huayu 1995

Chapter 240 is absolutely shameless (Two chapters combined, please vote for me)
"Leaving tomorrow? How many days will you be gone?"

Strawberry bought another roast duck, and the three of them sat down at the table to eat together.

“One or two months,” Su Chao said, seeing Lin Zhimeng frown. “You can come back anytime in between, and stay for a few days.”

"Move away from me, you're crowding me."

Lin Zhimeng would never believe him.

This kid is particularly good at manipulating people's hearts. He'll definitely say, "It's okay, sister, you can go back now. It's alright if you get ripped off here. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. How can you avoid getting ripped off?"

They asked her whether she should leave or not.

"If I go any further over there, I'll squeeze into Sister Strawberry, and she already has a boyfriend."

Su Chao also knew to avoid suspicion.

He suspected that Strawberry and Lin Zhimeng might have some kind of illicit relationship.

After inquiring, I found out that Strawberry is straight and already has a boyfriend.

Moreover, Lin Zhimeng doesn't have any particular orientation.

No one could open her heart.

I'll have to do it myself.

"call!"

Lin Zhimeng took a bite of the roast duck roll with resentment.

I can't very well beat this kid up over something so trivial, so I'll just have to put up with it for now.

This resentment lingered even in my dreams.

Even in her sleep, Lin Zhimeng punched and kicked Su Chao, making the brat run away with his head in his hands.

I'll teach you to bully me, I'll teach you to bully me...

Just as they were getting into the swing of things, Su Chao suddenly transformed into a giant monster and pounced on her.

He pounced on her, pinning her down and silencing her with his mouth.

Lin Zhimeng felt suffocated by the congestion.

What made her even more powerless was that Su Chao was holding her heartbeat.

I woke up suddenly, my heart pounding.

Only then did I realize that the blanket was covering my mouth and nose.

Lin Zhimeng threw off the covers, gasped for breath, and involuntarily clutched her heart, as if she could still feel the itch from being scratched.

asshole!

damn thing!
He cursed a couple of times, but then he couldn't fall asleep anymore.

She always felt that if she closed her eyes, she could see Su Chao pounce on her.

It's all that brat's fault, always getting handsy.

In the morning, Su Chao came to pick up Lin Zhimeng to go to the airport, and she was glared at as soon as they met.

Su Chao was completely baffled by the stare.

Everything was fine yesterday, could it be because I got up early?

She's really grumpy when she wakes up.

Little did he know what shameless things he had done in Lin Zhimeng's dream.

Even if he knew, he was innocent.

We can't hold him accountable for what happened in my dream.

If we calculate it that way...

He pounced on her, kissing and rubbing her chest; he couldn't let that glare go to waste.

A car drove by, with two people in front and three in the back.

Su Chao definitely couldn't let other men get close to Lin Zhimeng, so he decisively sat in the middle, with the thinner Taoist priest on the other side.

As for letting Lin Zhimeng sit in the front, that would only be possible if he were to drive.

It's inevitably crowded if three people sit in the back.

So delicious...

Lin Zhimeng was unaware that Su Chao had hired two new people; otherwise, she would have definitely asked Strawberry to come earlier and drive her there.

There's not much to say right now.

Being close to Su Chao always made her think about that dream.

illusion……

It's really strange.

"Is it hot?"

Seeing that Lin Zhimeng's fair neck and ears were slightly pink, Su Chao thought she was just feeling hot.

He knew that men and women had different body temperatures.

"It's alright... What exactly do you need me to do this time?"

Lin Zhimeng decided to change the subject.

"Familiarize yourself with the film production process, and oversee key aspects to serve as a deterrent. Regardless of whether we want to get involved or not, we need to have someone there to show that we have the means to get involved."

Su Chao definitely needs someone like that.

A person you can trust.

Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have it; Liu Dehua is definitely not someone who would betray himself.

But if we don't find an opportunity to bring Lin Zhimeng along, when will we ever be able to win her over?

Su Chao felt quite shameless.

Taking advantage of Lin Zhimeng's slight affection for him, he plotted to ruin her reputation.

That's absolutely shameless.

"These two..."

Lin Zhimeng thought the two newly recruited people had some special skills.

"We're all rough men. We're good at serving tea and water and stopping thugs, but we're not very educated."

The Taoist priest offered an explanation.

When they first saw the boss's girlfriend, they thought they had met a fairy.

To be honest, Dao Ye has traveled all over the country and served as a lackey for the wealthy. He has seen no shortage of beautiful women, some of whom are even more beautiful and elegant than celebrities. But as for someone like Lin Zhimeng, he can only say that his boss is incredibly lucky.

"Sigh, you should find someone else suitable sooner rather than later. I hate trouble the most."

Lin Zhimeng had a headache.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I always trouble you."

Su Chao looked guilty.

"Don't come any closer, or I'll beat you up!"

Lin Zhimeng remained silent.

She hated her own soft heart even more.

"hit me?"

If there weren't other people around, Su Chao would definitely be on the verge of tears, blinking his big, watery eyes as he accused Lin Zhimeng of being heartless and ungrateful.

"I've studied under a famous master and learned self-defense techniques. You'd better behave yourself."

Lin Zhimeng made her decision.

I'll find Su Chao and beat him up another day, otherwise he won't know how powerful I am.

"Cough cough..."

The fake Taoist priest nearly choked on his own saliva, and the monk in the passenger seat stared wide-eyed.

master?

When the two of them came to work for their new employer, they naturally wanted to find out more about the new employer.

Ni Zengzhao's assessment of Su Chao was that he had mastered the true teachings of Bajiquan and Liuhe spear. The rule of Bajiquan is that if one does not master Bajiquan, one will not be taught the true spear techniques.

A few years ago, when Ni Zengzhao visited Su Chao, Su Chao was already carrying a four-meter rifle, so he must have really mastered the skills.

His hand skills are definitely on par with the two of them.

Why would we need their protection?

Then they said that the new employer is now a respectable person and doesn't act easily, so they need to arrange two people to handle things.

This young girl looks so delicate and weak, yet she actually uses her skills to threaten her employer. One can't help but wonder where her confidence comes from.

"Sister, I'm an only child. I never expected to find a god-sister in Beijing. Sometimes I just can't help myself. I didn't mean any offense, so I'm sorry~"

Su Chao, however, showed no awareness whatsoever of the true lineage of Bajiquan and Liuhe Spear.

His performance left the other three speechless.

That's absolutely disgusting!
Where is our face! Where is our shame! Where is the honor of our sect!

"I'm not comfortable with strangers getting close to me, it's not directed at you..."

Lin Zhimeng immediately gave in.

After disembarking from the plane, Su Chao and Lin Zhimeng walked apart for a short while.

To prevent Lin Zhimeng from being photographed.

He was destined to live in the spotlight, but he didn't want Lin Zhimeng to be disturbed too much.

Originally, Lin Zhimeng could have stayed at her uncle's house.

However, Su Chao still arranged hotel accommodation for her. After all, it was paid for by the production crew, and as a producer, she could stay in any hotel she wanted.

Yes, the treatment is similar to that of the lead actor, so the two rooms are connected.

Actually, Su Chao had considered playing the victim.

They said our production team is short on funds and can't arrange too many rooms. Lu Bu, Buddha, and Taoist are all staying in one suite, so why don't we just share a room?

Unfortunately, he knew it was impossible.

Not long after checking in, Lin Zhimeng knocked on Su Chao's door.

"Sis, come in quickly!" You delivered yourself to my door, so don't blame me for laughing.

Why can't I get through to you on the phone?

Lin Zhimeng had no choice but to knock on the door.

"out of battery."

If the battery is removed, it will definitely be out of power.

"I'd like to ask you about the next steps and when I can meet with Ms. Chen Peihua."

Lin Zhimeng did not go in.

"Sis, you have no idea how many paparazzi I attract in Hong Kong. You'd better come in quickly, or if you get photographed, I'll have no way to explain myself even if I jump into the Pacific Ocean."

Su Chao was getting a little anxious.

He took Thor's hand, pulled her inside, and then closed the door.

"..."

Thor was standing in Su Chao's room without even figuring out what was going on.

If the paparazzi see this, it will be even harder to explain.

When teachers see students of the opposite sex, they leave the door open to avoid suspicion. But you, you just pulled me into the room. Anyone who saw that probably wouldn't think we were innocent.

"Sis, you have no idea how crazy the paparazzi in Hong Kong are. Hotel staff, cleaners, and even the buildings across the street might have binoculars set up in your window..."

Su Chao's statement was half true and half false.

The poor Hong Kong paparazzi have been demonized by Su Chao.

Being a celebrity is terrifying!

For some inexplicable reason, Lin Zhimeng felt pity for Su Chao again.

"Please sit here for a while. I have a sofa and a coffee table here. Let's chat while we drink tea."

Food and accommodation are very expensive in Hong Kong.

However, the hotel where "My Sassy Girl" stayed wasn't very high-end, so the rooms booked for the main actors were reasonably spacious.

Su Chao and Lin Zhimeng discussed some things about producing.

Lin Zhimeng had only read books and had no practical experience, while Su Chao had worked on several film crews. He was always eager to learn and had long been ambitious to set up his own production team, so he had studied all aspects of production.

They drank tea and chatted like that.

They chatted for over an hour.

Lin Zhimeng belatedly realized that she had been in Su Chao's room for too long.

If this gets discovered, and she claims they have no relationship whatsoever, nobody will believe her.

That evening, Su Chao took Lin Zhimeng to meet Chen Peihua, Chen Musheng, and Wang Zuxian.

"This is Miss Lin Zhimeng... She aspires to be a producer, but lacks experience. When she heard that Sister Peihua was coming to produce for us, she kept pestering me to join the crew to learn. Sister Peihua, you must not hold back any knowledge!"

Su Chao is a particularly eloquent person.

His words were naturally impeccable.

I definitely can't just come up and say, "This is the producer I sent to keep Chen Peihua in check. Chen Peihua, you better watch out, or I'll catch you doing something wrong."

As for the true situation, Chen Peihua probably knows it too.

However, this is a very common occurrence.

Nobody's money comes from thin air, so someone has to be assigned to oversee it, whether it's the producer, the production manager, or even the production supervisor.

However, given Chen Peihua's seasoned background, she had rarely seen anyone who could make this story sound so convincing.

Furthermore, Andy Lau repeatedly praised Su Chao in front of her, and she even had shares in Galaxy Pictures, so she and Su Chao were practically family, and naturally she wouldn't have any angry thoughts.

"Ms. Lin, don't worry, we're all family. Let's work together and discuss things together."

Chen Peihua and Lin Zhimeng shook hands.

Lin Zhimeng shook hands with people and then quickly separated, not showing excessive enthusiasm.

Chen Peihua didn't mind.

"This is director Benny Chan, and this is Ms. Joey Wong..."

Su Chao then introduced the other two as well.

"Hello, Miss Lin~"

Director Benny Chan then snapped out of his daze, noticing Lin Zhimeng's appearance and figure.

He's a man, so he's bound to pay attention when he sees a beautiful woman.

Why cast Wang Zuxian to play a woman with such a refined air?

She's perfect for it!
"Miss Lin, you are so beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful person before."

Wang Zuxian didn't have as many concerns.

She is a woman. Although it is widely rumored that she had a relationship with Brigitte Lin, a woman's advantage is that she can praise another woman's beauty without being seen as a pervert.

"Hello, Director," Lin Zhimeng nodded to Chen Musheng first, then smiled at Wang Zuxian, "Thank you, you're very beautiful too!"

She had also seen "A Chinese Ghost Story" and quite liked Wang Zuxian.

As for the "scandals" surrounding Wang Zuxian, she didn't really care much. Everyone thought Wang Zuxian was promiscuous and seduced married men, calling her a prostitute, but they ignored the fact that it was actually Lin Jianyue who repeatedly tried to win her over.

It takes two hands to clap.

As a result, everyone envied Lin Jianyue for his good fortune with women, but it forced Wang Zuxian to almost retire from the entertainment industry.

Therefore, Lin Zhimeng does not want to get married.

Her family of origin was disgusting enough; there was really no need for her to start her own family.

She can live a perfectly good life on her own.

"If we're going to start filming, we'll start filming the day after tomorrow. We need to do some preparations tomorrow, such as preparing props and setting. Everything is already done. I'll show the accounts to Miss Lin later."

Chen Musheng seized absolute power.

All he needed to do was submit expense reports to Chen Peihua.

Everyone here is an old hand; Chen Peihua can spot any problems with the accounts at a glance, so there really wasn't anything fishy going on.

"I might not understand it, but I'll have to learn it later."

Lin Zhimeng has high emotional intelligence.

“Our production team is perfectly fine. Sister Peihua is my brother Hua’s sister, which means she’s my sister. Director Chen was recommended by Inspector Du, but it’s hard to say what will happen when we get projects in the future. So I want my sister to learn everything so that I won’t get taken advantage of in the future.”

Su Chao should make amends.

Lin Zhimeng had to do all these things, including checking accounts, managing money, and following the team.

That's why we had more time to spend together, and it was only natural that she would be involved in the next project.

It's all a scam.

Lin Zhimeng refrained from glaring at Su Chao, feeling incredibly stupid for having been conscripted by that brat Su Chao again.

The group chatted about turning on the computer.

He also talked about the planning of the entire filming process, when to shoot what scenes, how to coordinate the schedules of venues and actors, how to liaise with the government and various partners, and how to deal with special circumstances.

Lin Zhimeng listened quietly most of the time.

She's a top student with an excellent memory; she doesn't need to take notes in a notebook.

However, she discovered something.

That is, Su Chao knows a lot, far beyond her imagination.

She used to just think Su Chao was talented.

She can compose, sing, and even runs a training class, but those are all small-scale endeavors.

She realized today that she had underestimated Su Chao.

Chen Peihua is a seasoned veteran, Chen Musheng has also been in the business for many years, and Wang Zuxian's success today is not due to her being an innocent person; after all, her status in the entertainment industry is undeniable.

However, none of these three could control Su Chao.

Even when Su Chao felt that a decision had already been made was inappropriate, he could pinpoint its shortcomings and quickly provide a solution.

You could even say that Su Chao led the conversation the whole time.

After several attempts, the situation was finally in Su Chao's hands.

Even Chen Peihua was convinced.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing, which is product placement. Wahaha mineral water has paid 500,000 yuan for product placement, and I've promised three placements: one is on the subway, with the female lead holding the water; another is when the female lead is drunk and the male lead is feeding her water; and the third is when the male lead is drinking with his friends, with a bottle of water on the table..."

Su Chao has signed an endorsement deal with Wahaha mineral water.

"Half a million!"

Chen Peihua was also taken aback.

The investment for this film was four million from Galaxy Pictures, one million from Mr. Lin, and one million from Milkyway Image, totaling only six million.

As a result, you directly attracted 500,000 in advertising placement fees.

“I plan to find some more. I’ve set up an advertising company in mainland China… We’ll discuss how to integrate them later. I’ll go door-to-door asking for money.”

Su Chao believes this is what ecology is all about.

Advertising agencies and film companies work together; it's so convenient to advertise in movies.

Of course, it shouldn't be implanted too awkwardly.

"Mainland advertisers, is it confirmed that our film will be released in mainland China?"

Chen Peihua was worried about this matter.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to go."

Su Chao's statement was rather conservative; in fact, he is 100% certain he can play.

Zhang Heping has already smoothed things over.

Su Chao composed "Chinese People," and Andy Lau took on the responsibility of singing it.

Furthermore, "My Sassy Girl" is just a simple romance movie, and there are no nude or passionate scenes.

Giving it a screening slot in mainland China shouldn't be a problem.
