Transmigrated into the body of a tycoon's son's ex-boyfriend

Chapter 40 Whose food truck is providing support?

One of the staff members opened the label, took a look, and gasped.

Steamed sea urchin with egg, black truffle and Wagyu beef fried rice, grilled Iberico pork neck, and blanched kale.

There was also a bowl of sea cucumber soup packaged separately.

The soup is clear and bright, and you can tell from the aroma that it's made with top-quality ingredients.

A person next to me took out their phone, scanned the QR code on the food container, and a page for a high-end restaurant popped up.

The average cost per person at this restaurant exceeds 1,000 yuan, and this one takeout set meal alone costs 599 yuan!

This does not include soup.

Judging from the boxes unloaded from this food truck, at least one or two hundred meals have been prepared.

"Holy crap, which fan group has such a wealthy fanbase?"

A young man from the film crew next to me, holding a lunchbox, almost wobbled over: "How much does this cost?"

"I just checked, it's 599 per serving, not including drinks and soup."

"What about the drinks?"

"What do you think? A glass of freshly squeezed juice would cost twenty or thirty yuan on a food delivery platform."

"How much did this cost?"

"Not counting transportation and labor costs, just the food and drinks alone would cost at least 20."

"20? Our group usually only sends milk tea and fried chicken for fan support. I've never seen such a meal allowance in my life."

"Who sent this? A fan of the male lead?"

"Wait a minute, when the male lead's fans are showing support, there are usually banners and blackboards saying who's treating. Why is there nothing this time?"

The crew members were discussing it amongst themselves. They searched around the food truck but couldn't find any signs with information about the supporters.

There was no blackboard, no banner, and no sign.

There were no support slogans or cartoon images of celebrities on the lunch boxes.

It seems that the people who brought these things didn't care whether the children knew who sent them or not.

Regardless of who sent it, I still have to eat.

Compared to this, the boxed lunches served on set are practically pig-feeding.

The staff brought out the boxed meals, and the crew members flocked to the support vehicle, lining up to receive their food and drinks.

Even the ladies in the lighting crew who are usually the pickiest eaters and always complain about dieting got full meals today.

Lu Yu didn't try to compete with them, and slowly walked at the back of the crowd.

After everyone had received their food, they walked to the front of the food cart.

The staff handed him a set meal and a glass of juice. He took them, thanked them, and found a folding chair in the corner to sit down.

Qiao Zhixi got out of the RV and saw this lively scene.

Two black support vehicles were parked outside the film set, and every member of the crew was all smiles, carrying exquisite lunch boxes as they walked around.

She was also holding a freshly squeezed juice in her hand.

The entire film set was filled with the aroma of a high-end restaurant.

Qiao Zhixi's first thought was that Ye Mingqi had arrived.

When he called Ye Mingqi yesterday, Ye Mingqi promised him that she would come to the film set to see him in the next couple of days.

Two such luxurious support vehicles suddenly arrived today. Who else could it be but Ye Mingqi?

The Ye family is well-off, and Ye Mingqi has frequently invested in the entertainment industry in the past two years, making quite a name for himself in the entertainment circle and earning a lot of money.

When Qiao Zhixi was in another film crew before, Ye Mingqi also sent him support.

Although it wasn't as high-end as it is today, its specifications were still quite good.

"It must be President Ye who's here," Xiao Cheng said beside him.

Qiao Zhixi's eyes lit up, and she looked around, trying to find Ye Mingqi.

He couldn't find the person, and he didn't care much.

Ye Mingqi might be waiting in the car, or perhaps he hasn't come out of the hotel yet.

I deliberately kept a low profile, wanting to give him a surprise.

Qiao Zhixi found a way to back down, since Ye Mingqi was definitely there to support him anyway.

But there was one thing that made him unhappy.

Qiao Zhixi walked to the food cart, glanced around at it, and frowned.

There was no blackboard, no promotional posters, and not even any support slogans on the lunchboxes.

Why is Ye Mingqi keeping such a low profile?

He wanted everyone on the film crew to know whose food they were eating!

Let those ungrateful wretches, especially those who testified for Lu Yu and those who mocked him behind his back, know.

Whose food are they eating? Are they being subservient to anyone?

The reason this production team was able to stay afloat was none other than Qiao Zhixi!

Not long after Qiao Zhixi joined the crew, she heard that the production budget had suddenly increased, and the costumes, props and sets had all been upgraded.

In addition to the small studio they had previously collaborated with, the special effects team also hired a well-known large team in the industry to work together on the special effects.

Even the standard meal allowance for extras has been raised from fifteen yuan to twenty-five yuan.

He naturally assumed that this investment was the ten million that Ye Mingqi had invested.

Since Ye Mingqi invested the money, the fact that this production team is where it is today is thanks to Qiao Zhixi.

If it weren't for him, how could Ye Mingqi have invested money in a lousy web series?

Unfortunately, he wasn't the one wearing the most luxurious makeup and costumes.

Shen Du is played by Lu Yu.

Thinking about this made Qiao Zhixi very angry.

"Shen Du is a Celestial Venerable, so his attire should naturally be of high quality."

This was the production company's response to him when he went to them to demand an explanation.

The other person spoke politely and reasonably, and he couldn't refute it.

But I just couldn't swallow the resentment in my heart.

He's the male lead, the biggest star in the whole show, so why is the most high-class costume being worn by someone else?

He was just a supporting male character, ranked fifth or lower.

Qiao Zhixi had previously tried to get the female lead, Fan Siyao, to join him in protesting.

After all, Fan Siyao is also a main character and a holy maiden of a sect, so her makeup and costume should be the most luxurious in the whole series.

But Qiao Zhixi couldn't figure out Fan Siyao at all.

Fan Siyao is a professionally trained actress, majoring in acting at the Central Academy of Drama. She played the second female lead in a period drama.

She was spotted by Dong Yanchen and pulled in to play the female lead in this web series.

She wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she had a good temperament, was serious about acting, and was well-liked on set.

Qiao Zhixi originally thought that Fan Siyao would stand on the same side as her.

After all, the male and female leads should have aligned interests.

During a break between filming scenes that day, Qiao Zhixi sat on a chair next to Fan Siyao, looking completely open and honest.

"Teacher Fan, don't you think our costumes are a bit too plain compared to Shen Du's?"

You're the leading lady, yet your makeup and styling aren't even as exquisite as a supporting character's.

"How about we go and talk to the production company about this together?"

Fan Siyao was eating sliced ​​watermelon when she heard Qiao Zhixi's words. She slowly finished chewing the watermelon in her mouth.

Then she looked at him with an innocent expression:

"Really? I think my costume is pretty good. Our crew's costumes are top-notch among fantasy dramas."

"But don't you think Shen Du's costumes are so much better than ours?" Qiao Zhixi asked in a low voice.

"Look at his silver-blue robe, the fabric, the embroidery, and then look at ours..."

"That's because he's playing a celestial being," Fan Siyao said dismissively, forking another strawberry and putting it in her mouth.

"It's normal for the Immortal Venerable to dress nicely. Besides, look how handsome his robes look when he walks."
