Chapter 125 Identity Exposed?

A private restaurant in Shanghai usually caters to wealthy people or celebrities, offering much greater privacy than a regular restaurant.

The four entered the private room under the guidance of the waiter and saw Huang Bo already sitting inside.

"Hey, Brother Bo!"

Mingbei was the first to greet Huang Bo.

"Yo, Shi Geng, you're here!"

It is actually very difficult to suppress Huang Bo when facing him in a matchup.

He has high emotional intelligence, a mature way of dealing with people, and can handle many potentially embarrassing situations very well.

"Shi Geng, you're never short of beautiful women!"

Huang Bo then spotted Fan Bingbing following behind him and immediately teased, "Fan Ye, long time no see!"

He and Fan Bingbing hadn't collaborated much before, but they were both from Shandong Province and even the same city, making them true fellow townsmen.

Both are extremely famous artists, but they have never actually appeared in the same work.

Lost in Thailand should be the first one.

Brother, Huang Bosi didn't participate in writing the plot just now!

Therefore, they have never had any face-to-face film and television collaborations.

"Hello, Brother Bo!"

After exchanging greetings, the five people sat down one after another.

Of these five people, Huang Bo and Fan Bingbing are still the most famous.

One is a red carpet queen, a top-tier actress.

The other one is a Best Actor winner, whose acting skills are quite remarkable.

Their status in the industry is such that they are always the headliners at events, sitting in the front row, and no one can take their seats away from them.

This was a private dinner, and everyone sat down casually without any particular hierarchy or seniority.

After ordering, Xu Zheng turned to Ming Bei and asked, "Director Ming, is your movie all set? Are you sure it'll be released during the National Day holiday?"

It's already July, and there are only about two months left until National Day.

If the post-production editing isn't finished by now, then the schedule will be extremely busy from now on!

Mingbei picked up his teacup and nodded. "We've already obtained the film license, confirming its release during the National Day holiday!"

Upon hearing this, Fan Bingbing, who was sitting next to him, looked slightly surprised. "What does this mean? Does Mingbei have a new movie coming out?"

Fan Bingbing had only glanced at Ming Bei's information and knew that he was popular with many people because of his roles as the Fourteenth Prince in "Scarlet Heart" and as a villain in "The Four Great Constables".

She is also hailed by many as a new generation of stunning beauty.

But listening to the conversation at the dinner table, it seems that Mingbei has a directorial work about to be released!

Otherwise, why would Xu Zheng call Mingbei "Director Ming"?

This immediately piqued her curiosity.

"He'll be directing and starring in a movie during the National Day holiday," Xu Zheng explained with a smile. "Bao Qiang is also in it, and it was filmed in Thailand as well. Their movie premiered earlier than ours!"

Oh?

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Bingbing's eyes shone with even more curiosity.

In her opinion, people who are good-looking generally have relatively poor professional skills.

This even includes her personally; in the early days, she was often criticized for her acting skills.

It was only later, over time, that it was gradually improved.

In her opinion, it's already quite impressive that Mingbei, at his age, can act so well.

Fan Bingbing thought his acting skills were those of a seasoned actor, not at all like a newbie!

But to my surprise, Mingbei was even more ruthless than I imagined, and he actually started directing and acting in his own drama?

In the entertainment industry, there are very few actors who can achieve this level!

The person in front of me, Xu Zheng, is one, but if you look at it from a larger perspective, there's another even more famous one: Stephen Chow.

At just over twenty years old, he already has such abilities?

What is this guy's background?

Fan Bingbing became increasingly curious about Ming Bei.

"Ding!"

At this moment, Mingbei's breakup system showed that Fan Bingbing's heart-fluttering value sitting next to him had exceeded 50.

The rate of increase was really fast. Perhaps in her eyes, Mingbei was like a mystery, something she wanted to explore.

This also shows that Fan Bingbing values ​​appearance quite a bit.

"Maybe we didn't have a choice before, but now, seeing these talented and good-looking people around us, we're bound to pay more attention." Xu Zheng continued, "So what are your box office expectations?" He added, "I think you guys can set an example now, so those of us who come later can learn from your experience!"

"What can we expect?" Mingbei shrugged and sighed. "Our initial target is over 100 million!"

From a cost perspective, if the cost exceeds 100 million, the investment can be recouped, and there won't be much of a loss.

However, Xu Zheng must have known that Mingbei had greater ambitions, so he knew that the target of 1 million was definitely conservative.

"The villainous roles you've played have already grossed over 100 million, so the ones you starred in must have made even more!"

"Please, there's no point in saying all this. I'm not God; I can't predict future box office numbers," Mingbei waved his hand and said. "The real data can only be obtained when the film is released!"

That being said, Xu Zheng still felt that Mingbei's expectations should be higher, otherwise they wouldn't have placed it in such a competitive period as the National Day holiday.

Fortunately, the food was served quickly, interrupting their conversation.

The food here was quite good, and everyone was hungry from filming, so we didn't say much and just ate a few bites to fill our stomachs first.

"Yes, the food here is quite good. I'll come again next time!"

"It's good, but it's also very expensive. One meal there costs half a month's food expenses!"

"Who are you kidding? I don't believe you only spend that little money in a month!"

"How much money can we possibly spend on food? We're not the kind of people who eat lavishly every day!"

"Anyway, Director Xu is treating this meal. Waiter, bring two bottles of wine!"

Strictly speaking, today's meal is the real wrap party, and it's perfectly fine to have a few drinks to celebrate.

"By the way, Mingbei, would you like some?"

"No, thank you," Mingbei shook his head, "I don't drink alcohol, a Coke will do!"

Seeing this, Xu Zheng joked, "Drinking too much cola can make you...you know...kill someone!"

Mingbei remained calm, "I'm young, so what if I kill? What if it's a waste? There are plenty of others..."

""

"puff!"

Fan Bingbing, who was standing next to him, couldn't hold back and immediately spat out the mouthful of soup she was drinking!

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, she turned her head and sprayed the empty space next to her, avoiding the table.

Otherwise, this whole meal might be ruined.

"You're awesome!"

At this moment, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Bao Qiang, and their trio all gave Ming Bei a thumbs up.

They all expressed their admiration for his bold statement.

After Fan Bingbing recovered, tears welled up in her eyes, of course, because she had choked.

Taking a deep breath, she felt she needed to calm down, so she joined the other three in drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor).

Don't underestimate a woman's alcohol tolerance, especially a veteran like Fan Bingbing who has been in the entertainment industry for many years; her alcohol tolerance is probably better than most men's.

After two rounds, Mingbei's cola was almost empty, while the other four were clearly getting into it.

When you drink too much, you become less restrained and have a chance to say things that are hidden in your heart.

So, Xu Zheng finally couldn't contain his curiosity and asked the question that had been bothering him, "Mingbei, what exactly is your relationship with Orange Phone?"
