China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

At the private restaurant, the food was served as soon as the two arrived.

Zeng Li immediately realized: "Is this the store you opened?"

"Yes, private dishes are generally not open to the public, only open to friends."

Lu Pingan took Zeng Li around and finally came to the box.

Then one dish after another was put on the table.

Pimp eel, lotus root clips, steamed pork with rice flour

"You don't need so much..."

As soon as Zeng Li expressed his politeness, he realized that these dishes seemed familiar.

Lu Ping'an explained with a smile: "There is a chef in the kitchen who says he is good at Hubei cuisine. I don't really believe it. You happen to be from Hubei. Come and check it for me. Come on, have a try."

Zeng Li couldn't tell that this was an excuse.

But she didn't expose it, and instead followed her intention very generously.

"Okay, but I've never eaten many of these dishes."

"It's okay, you have the final say. If it doesn't taste good, just change it!"

"No need, it's too wasteful."

"I mean change the chef."

"Then I don't dare to eat it."

"Then just say a few nice words. Anyway, you have the final say today."

Lu Pingan looked at her with enthusiastic eyes.

Zeng Li also received the signal, his face remained calm, but his heart rate couldn't help but speed up a bit.

She is almost 28 years old and is an actress, so her nerves are naturally not so dull.

Lu Ping'an invited her to dinner and ordered special dishes from her hometown. Now she spoke with a different feeling. She could naturally sense what it meant.

It's just that this is the first time the two of them have met, and the other person is the director and the stronger one, so Zeng Li will naturally be more wary.

There are too many scandals in the circle.

She doesn't like this.

So even though Zeng Li strictly speaking did have a crush on the handsome and talented Lu Pingan, she had already made up her mind today and must be careful.

For example, I will definitely not drink alcohol for a while. This is the bottom line.

If there are other requirements, it will be handled based on the situation.

After all, he is the director and holds his own future in his hands. If necessary, he can take a step back as appropriate.

Fortunately, none of the bad things she envisioned happened.

Lu Ping'an was the same as the impression she had on her at the beginning, that he was a talented, humorous and handsome gentleman.

The two chatted while eating. During this period, Zeng Li said that he didn't want to drink alcohol and just drank boiled water. Lu Ping'an didn't hesitate at all and drank boiled water together.

He also talked about the benefits of drinking boiled water, how much water a person must drink in a day, how long a person can live without drinking water, and how long other animals can live. He also talked about how you can drink urine in an emergency when surviving in the wild.

This made Zeng Li interrupt with a smile: "It's time to eat."

Lu Pingan explained seriously: "You don't understand this. In fact, fresh urine is cleaner than human blood and saliva because there are no bacteria."

"Stop talking, it's so disgusting."

"Then let's change to some trivia."

"Why is it called trivia?"

"It's just unpopular knowledge that most people don't pay attention to, such as the urine I just mentioned."

"Stop talking about peeing."

"Okay, let's change it. For example, you can't swallow three times in a row."

"real or fake?"

"If you don't believe it, just try it."

Zeng Li did not believe in Xie and gave it a try. Sure enough, his first attempt to swallow saliva three times ended in failure.

"I believe it now."

"Others should be able to do it."

"Then let's do something hardcore."

Lu Pingan pointed to the paper towel on the dining table and said, "Believe it or not, no matter how big the paper is, it can only be folded in half a maximum of 9 times."

"Yeah?"

"If you don't believe it, just try it."

After listening to this, Zeng Li took out a tissue and started experimenting.

The results are also obvious.

Lu Ping'an brought another large newspaper.

Zeng Li continued to test and continue to fulfill.

"why is that?"

"Then you have to use some knowledge of physics."

The atmosphere of chat between the two continued to rise.

Topics are flying all over the place, but of course one principle remains unchanged, that is, no matter what topic, it will eventually fall on Zeng Li.

The scumbag chat method was used again by Lu Ping'an.

So during the meal, we didn't talk much about the script of Wonderful Night. Zeng Li gained a bunch of weird but interesting knowledge, and saw Lu Pingan's "talent" and "humor". Lu Pingan also knew about it. Zeng Li has many experiences in the past when he was acting.

It seems that the conversation is not deep, but after all, it is the first time. If the chatting atmosphere is good, it is a success.

The meal lasted for more than an hour, and Lu Pingan stopped the chatting atmosphere in time and prepared to end the banquet.

"It's getting late. I have to go back and continue making props. How about we eat here first?"

Zeng Li felt a little disappointed when she heard this, but she also knew that the other person's time was precious, so she went with it.

"I'll take you back. Where do you live?"

“Not far from home”

Zeng Li said something. After saying it, she didn't even realize that her guard against Lu Ping'an was now completely different from before the meal.

"It's not far. No need to make a detour. Come on, I'll see you off."

Less than half an hour later, the destination arrived. Lu Pingan was not ready to send her upstairs. He just expressed his apology again for what happened today before she got off the car.

"It's okay, you already invited me to dinner, right?"

"Yes, with so much meat, I should be able to make up for it."

Zeng Li laughed again after hearing this. This was the first time he laughed today.

"Go back and have a good rest. I will study the script in the next few days. If you have any questions, please call me anytime, or you can just come to the set to see me."

"Okay, I understand, bye."

"Goodbye."

Zeng Li got out of the car, waved goodbye again, turned around and entered the community. When he looked back, he saw that the car was safe and the car did not drive away immediately.

Seeing her turn around and the car honking its horn before slowly driving away, Zeng Li felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in being respected.

Then I got home, put down my bag, put on my home clothes, and sat on the sofa to read the script.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered a piece of trivia that Lu Ping'an said.

So she raised one foot, took off her shoe, and gestured with her arm.

really!

The soles of my feet are the same length as my forearms.

Then try other cool knowledge.

She stared at the palm of her hand, and it still came true. The palm of her hand really felt warm!

While Zeng Li was surprised, she also saw Lu Pingan's serious and popular science appearance before her eyes, but what he talked about was weird but interesting knowledge. She felt that Lu Pingan was really interesting, no wonder he was so successful.

Of course, the most important thing was the eager look Lu Ping'an showed towards him inadvertently. Thinking of this, Zeng Li laughed unconsciously, with a hint of secret joy in his heart.

Then she thought again, should she send a text message to Lu Ping'an to report that she was safe?

Just as this thought came up, a text message sounded on the phone, it was Lu Ping'an: "If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me."

Zeng Li smiled and quickly replied: "I know."

After typing three words, she thought about it and changed the text: "Okay, you should also pay attention to safety when driving."

The other person replied instantly: "I'm waiting at the red light. Don't worry, I won't blackmail you if something happens."

Zeng Li laughed again after seeing it

In the car, Lu Pingan put down his phone with a smile.

He also felt very comfortable with today's meal.

Zeng Li was indeed just as he remembered, quiet and indifferent.

It is hard to imagine that such a beautiful actress has not taken on a role in four years of college. It has been three years since graduating from college, and she has not signed a contract with any agency. She has been working as a freelancer.

There is no agency, there are certain pursuits when choosing scripts, and some unspoken rules are not accepted. No wonder it has been tepid for so many years.

Of course, what Lu Pingan cared about most at the moment was having her beard cut off this time.

He already knew that Zeng Li was going to "The Road Home is Like a Rainbow".

In my impression, she and Fu Dalong met in this drama and got together.

Now that I think about it, this is all fate!

Just as I was thinking about it, Gao Yuanyuan sent another text message: "Have you not finished picking up girls yet?"

Lu Ping'an replied instantly: "Who are you?"

. . . . . . . .

Of course, Lu Ping'an still went to Gao Yuanyuan's residence.

People said she was injured, so she still had to go and take a look. The injury was indeed injured, but it was not as big as she said, at most 5 centimeters.

Then Lu Pingping stayed for a while and left.

If the game is not at the rhythm that Lu Ping An wants, then settlement rewards cannot be announced.

What rhythm does he want?

Needless to say.

Gao Yuanyuan is not like Yan Danchen Zengli.

He didn't want to bother.

So the game between the two will continue.

Until the other party gives in or Lu Pingan loses interest.

Ge You arrived early the next morning and spent the whole morning setting her makeup.

After that, the others who needed their makeup set arrived one by one.

In the afternoon, You Haoran, who plays the "son", arrived.

When You Haoran was 3 years old, he filmed the commercial "Mom Washes Feet", so it is not difficult to make the connection.

You Haoran is 8 years old this year, which is a bit younger for the script.

There were several other candidates, but in comparison, You Haoran was the best in acting. He was also very cute at this time, like a porcelain doll, so I decided to choose him.

As for Shi Xiaolong and Xie Miao, forget it. They are too old. If they want to act, it will have to be an adolescent father-son relationship, which is not suitable.

The basic roles are done, and all that's left is the final preparation work, which is to adjust the final wax figures for the actors.

At the same time, the advertising investment for "Wonderful Night" has been completely completed.

The number of advertising sponsorships for Wonderful Night this time is slightly less than that of "Source Code" because there are not many placement opportunities, but the sponsorship fee is not much different, reaching 18 million.

After a hit movie, the Lupin brand has become valuable. There is no shortage of advertisers who want to get on board, so they have to compete to get on board.

Lu Pingan also reserved an advertising space for Burger King, which will appear in the opening scene when the protagonist and his son are alone.

Lu Ping'an also asked Li Chenggong to contact Liu Feiren in advance. Feiren will become a god next summer, and winning his endorsement in advance should have unexpected results.

The advertising cost is 18 million, and the 30% share transfer is 28 million, for a total of 46 million, which far exceeds the production cost.

Lu Pingan once again experienced the joy of being a great director.

Of course, it would be better if this "big director" could be officially stamped.

Lu Ping'an believes that after this time, he will get what he wants.

On September 28, the preliminary preparations for "Wonderful Night" were basically completed and ready to be launched.
