Chapter 561: Chapter 561 I’m not feeling good at all right now!
The next morning.
As soon as Qianxun arrived at the set, she saw Director Zhong coming towards her with gleaming eyes, an expression that looked as though he couldn’t wait to skin her alive.
Seeing this, Qianxun took a half step back, a faint smile on her face, "Good morning, Director Zhong."
"I’m not feeling good at all right now! But you, you have some good news coming!" Director Zhong said.
"Oh?" Qianxun looked at him politely.
"Come, come, let’s go to the makeup room and talk!" Director Zhong immediately said, unable to contain his eagerness.
Qianxun nodded slightly, then gestured for Ruan Mianmian to follow.
Once they were in the simple makeup room, Director Zhong immediately said, "Qianxun, this time, you really need to thank me!"
"What do you mean by that, Director Zhong?" Qianxun asked.
"You know Wang Chao, right? Old Wang, who has shot many classic films. He’s recently been preparing a movie called ’Ghost Xiao Qian,’ and the lead actress hasn’t been confirmed yet. He called me yesterday, and I recommended you!" Director Zhong said with a big smile, not feeling guilty at all for telling a little white lie.
Qianxun turned her head to look at Ruan Mianmian upon hearing this.
At that moment, Ruan Mianmian, her expression tinged with faint excitement, gave Qianxun a subtle nod.
Seeing this, Qianxun immediately said to Director Zhong with a smile, "That really is great news for me! Thank you, Director Zhong. If the deal really goes through, I will definitely accompany you to the casino and win back a few tens of millions!"
Director Zhong had been waiting for exactly these words from Qianxun and immediately replied with delight, "You said it! How about we set the time after the movie wraps up?"
Hearing this, Qianxun looked at Ruan Mianmian and deliberately asked, "Mianmian, what’s my schedule like after this?"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mianmian instantly understood and then pretentiously took out her notebook and said, "According to the current progress of the film, you should be able to wrap up in three days. After that, the company has scheduled two days of rest for you, and then you’ll need to go back for events."
"So, does that mean I can stay in Hong Kong for one more day after wrapping up?" Qianxun said.
Ruan Mianmian quickly nodded, "Yes! At most one day, then you have to fly back."
"I understand."
Having said this, she turned to Director Zhong, "Then after the movie wraps up, I’ll go gamble with you, Director Zhong, okay?"
"Good, good, good! That’s settled then! After we finish shooting today’s scene, all that’s left is to shoot some extra footage, nothing too taxing," Director Zhong said, rubbing his hands together.
Ziqing was right, Qianxun is a straightforward person.
There, she agreed, didn’t she?
...
The rest of the shoot also went incredibly smoothly, and after that, Qianxun only needed to shoot some additional scenes.
Therefore, the day’s shoot was quite relaxing.
However, on the last day of shooting, a middle-aged man with long hair joined the crew.
Seeing him, Director Zhong immediately shouted, "Old Wang, you’re here?"
Hearing this, Wang Chao walked over and asked in a low voice, "Where is that actress you told me about?"
He had come today to see if the actress Director Zhong had earnestly vouched for truly met his requirements.
As soon as he spoke, Director Zhong immediately said, "Just a moment, she’s gone to the makeup room to change."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Qianxun appeared in a red dress.
Wang Chao’s eyes lit up at once.
Seeing this, Director Zhong patted his arm, "How about that? I didn’t lie to you, did I? Her face is so photogenic! And her acting skills are incredibly strong!"
