Starting from joining Tencent Video

A high-end hotel entertainment room in Xiamen

Four.

"Pong, three of bamboo."

"A winning hand!"

...

Meng Ziyi dragged Chen Jingyuan to play cards, and they became completely engrossed in it.

As a native of the steel city, Chen Jingyuan has some experience with mahjong.

Even if I haven't played it many times, I've seen quite a few.

They even have an innate talent for winning more often than losing!

On the contrary, Meng Ziyi belongs to the type who is both incompetent and loves to have fun.

"No, let's continue tomorrow night!"

"I must win this time."

After another night of heavy losses, Meng Ziyi's face inevitably showed resentment.

"As long as it doesn't interfere with daytime filming."

Chen Jingyuan did not object and spoke up.

He's not addicted to playing cards, but he'd be happy to play with someone.

"No, Director Liu praised my acting for showing improvement."

Meng Ziyi spoke with bright eyes and a hint of pride.

These words made Chen Jingyuan suspicious.

He felt it wasn't that Meng Ziyi's acting was particularly good, but rather that she was a good fit for the role.

However, they didn't expose it!

During his time on set, Chen Jingyuan's life was basically the same as his vacation.

He doesn't need to handle anything, whether it's filming or other matters.

Basically, it's just eating, drinking, and wandering around.

Chen Jingyuan even went out to sea several times for sea fishing.

As December arrived, Xiamen began to feel a bit chilly.

Chen Jingyuan didn't do much sea fishing, instead staying with the film crew.

After the weather turned cold, he didn't feel like exercising as much.

"Director Chen!"

Just as Chen Jingyuan was watching the film crew shoot, a figure approached!

It turns out to be Mao Xiaotong, the female lead of this drama. It's obvious that she wants to have more contact with Chen Jingyuan.

This person graduated a few years ago and currently does not have a management company.

She did manage to get some supporting roles thanks to her Central Academy of Drama degree.

For example, Consort Ying from "Empresses in the Palace" is somewhat famous.

Similar to Tan Songyun before, the problem is that Tan Songyun has already become famous overnight with "The Best of Us".

Previously, Mao Xiaotong admired Tan Songyun the most.

The reason is simple: this actress became famous after playing the lead role.

Suddenly, he went from only being able to run errands for various film crews to starting to receive invitations from film crews.

In this film, "Hello, Old Times," Mao Xiaotong also didn't expect to stand out and be cast as the female lead.

She naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.

Furthermore, if you can cultivate a good relationship with this Director Chen, you really won't have to worry about getting a role.

It must be said that after several years of experience since graduation, this person has developed rather mature ideas.

Unfortunately, this person miscalculated one thing: Meng Ziyi was eyeing him covetously.

"Sister Mao, I have some questions about acting that I'd like to ask you."

Meng Ziyi pulled Mao Xiaotong away and spoke up.

This scene was witnessed by many people, and Mao Xiaotong was quite helpless for a moment.

The entire crew knew that Meng Ziyi and Director Chen had a very close relationship.

She couldn't show any dissatisfaction yet.

Meng Ziyi's thoughts were simple; she still had some possessiveness towards Chen Jingyuan.

Thinking this way, one can simply do as one pleases; that's just how this person is.

Chen Jingyuan tacitly approved of Meng Ziyi's behavior; between those he was close to and those he was distant from, he still chose Meng Ziyi.

However, after Mao Xiaotong took action, there was another person who was also preparing to act.

That's Zhang Yunlong!

This person knows about the relationship between Chen Jingyuan and Dilraba.

However, because Chen Jingyuan and Meng Ziyi were quite familiar with each other, he was momentarily at a loss.

After thinking it over, he quietly reported the situation of the film crew to Dilraba.

After all, they are all artists under Jaywalk Studio, so he can't afford to make a mistake in his stance. As for what Dilraba will do, he doesn't know!

He didn't forget to maintain a good relationship with Chen Jingyuan.

Jaywalk Studio doesn't just have him as an artist; resources from him could also be given to others.

As for how to cultivate a good relationship with this person, Zhang Yunlong was well-prepared.

Previously, he had already asked his assistant to try to get closer to the people at Tianhe Studio.

I learned that this person enjoys the cuisine of each region.

A few days ago, he paid out of his own pocket to have his assistant go to many shops in Xiamen to sample the food.

The results just happened to be available today, and a copy has already been packaged and sent over.

Unexpectedly, Mao Xiaotong took the initiative first.

Just then, my assistant sent me a message saying that the package was almost ready to be packed and brought back.

Taking advantage of his break time, Zhang Yunlong quietly slipped out.

When I returned, I had a large bag of packed food in my hand.

Zhang Yunlong walked directly towards Chen Jingyuan without hesitation.

"Director Chen, this is a restaurant my assistant ate at in Xiamen before."

"The ginger duck tastes quite good. I was thinking of packing one for you to try."

...

Chen Jingyuan originally thought that this person had something to discuss with him, but it turned out that he had brought ginger duck.

It's hard not to be a little surprised!

This is indeed a characteristic of Xiamen. He had tried it before and the taste was acceptable.

I wonder if the ginger duck that Zhang Yunlong recommended this time is about the same.

"Yunlong, thank you for your recommendation."

Chen Jingyuan spoke with a very gentle expression.

He could understand a boy who wanted to improve.

It's almost lunchtime, so I just opened the package.

It was still quite hot, so it must have been served immediately after being cooked.

After Chen Jingyuan picked up his chopsticks and ate a piece of meat, his eyes lit up slightly.

The ginger duck at this restaurant is really good!

At least in terms of taste, it's much better than the one he ate at before.

"Yunlong, which store did you buy this from?!"

"Please send me your contact information!"

Zhang Yunlong was thrilled when he heard Chen Jingyuan's words.

This means his food strategy was a success, at least making this person remember it.

By evening, news had spread that Zhang Yunlong had paid out of his own pocket to have his assistant check out the store.

With such a large production crew, it's practically impossible to hide anything.

Many members of the crew were quite surprised, seemingly not expecting Zhang Yunlong to have such an idea.

"Isn't Zhang Yunlong being a bit too snobbish?!"

However, some people inevitably have a less than pleasant sensory experience.

"It's nothing, it just shows a bit of scheming."

Liu Chang didn't think it was a big deal; he had seen many others who were even more eager to improve than Zhang Yunlong.

This one can only be described as having a bit of cleverness!

In addition, Zhang Yunlong's actions have put a lot of pressure on him.

For example, Zhang Xincheng, he's the male lead!

The agency is Revelation Online, which mainly handles idol music production.

Their acting resources are relatively weak.

If we can have even a slight connection with Chen Jingyuan, we might have a better chance of getting this project next time.
