Starting from joining Tencent Video

Chapter 17 Calm, Filming

Chen Yao invited me to lunch the following day.

The location is near the Nortel Film Academy, but it's still a bit far.

Perhaps considering that the auditions and casting had just been completed, it wouldn't be good to invite the producer to be seen.

Specifically, it was a high-end restaurant where the average cost per person seemed to exceed a thousand yuan.

It's a bit pricey for Chen Yao, who is still a student.

Fortunately, Chen Yao did not come alone, but brought Meng Ziyi with him.

In just two days, their relationship quickly heated up.

Sometimes, the feelings between girls are just that simple.

Originally, Chen Yao had a roommate who also participated in the audition, but they were unlucky and were not selected.

When Chen Jingyuan arrived, he was somewhat surprised to see Meng Ziyi.

He thought Chen Yao had invited him alone, but he didn't expect Meng Ziyi to be there as well.

"Brother Jingyuan, this is Meng Ziyi!"

Chen Yao saw Chen Jingyuan's figure and couldn't help but call out.

"I'll call you Brother Jingyuan too."

"Is it okay!?"

Meng Ziyi spoke directly, her words quite straightforward.

His carefree and easygoing personality is on full display.

"Can!"

Chen Jingyuan replied without much emotion, saying that it wasn't worth arguing about a form of address.

Moreover, such a straightforward and outgoing personality is rare these days; perhaps this is what makes Northeastern girls special.

At least he felt that such a person would be a good friend.

"Brother Jingyuan, we're here this time to thank you for the audition."

Chen Yao, however, did not forget his purpose this time and began to speak.

"Just focus on acting and make the most of every opportunity."

"If there's anything you don't understand, just ask the director. This senior of yours was also an actor before."

Chen Jingyuan didn't pay attention to this small matter and instead gave instructions.

It doesn't matter who the supporting actors are, as long as it's not too outrageous, it's still acceptable.

What's more, there's also the director involved!

Liu Chang is an actor who transitioned into directing, and he certainly has the skills.

These words filled Chen Yao and his companion with gratitude.

In particular, Chen Yao felt that she had been judging others by her own petty standards.

"I wonder how Chen Keke's training is going?!"

Chen Jingyuan didn't forget to ask about his sister.

He was quite concerned about his younger sister.

"Coco has been working very hard lately for her art college entrance exam."

Chen Yao couldn't help but smile as he recalled some of Coco's words and expressions over the phone.

Next, I will talk about some complaints about Chen Keke.

After listening, Chen Jingyuan nodded.

Getting into one of the top three art academies is no easy feat.

At least Chen Keke knows she's trying!

They then chatted about campus life over dinner, with Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi doing most of the talking.

Chen Jingyuan was quite curious about the courses at the Beijing Film Academy and would ask questions from time to time.

Time flies by unnoticed.

The thank-you invitation concluded smoothly, and both Chen Yao and Chen Jingyuan added each other on WeChat.

After watching Chen Yao and the other person leave, Chen Jingyuan shook his head.

If he were to pursue one of the two, he would actually have a good chance.

However, his past romantic experiences before his rebirth made Chen Jingyuan's heart calmer than he had imagined.

Besides, one invitation doesn't mean anything; he's not some succubus or something that everyone loves.

Dating is something more suitable for young people.

He is more suited to the exchange of benefits among adults.

He hasn't reached the point of exchanging benefits yet, but he's not in a hurry.

Once the project is successful, some ambitious individuals will naturally emerge.

at the same time!

Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi, walking back to the Beijing Film Academy, were also talking about Chen Jingyuan.

"Jingyuan doesn't look like he just graduated."

"They seem a lot like some corporate executives over thirty years old."

"But Jingyuan's smile is actually quite gentle."

"This kind of person would actually be a great boyfriend."

...

The two women had a very high opinion of Chen Jingyuan.

My strongest impression of Chen Jingyuan is that he is reliable and also has a surprising side.

The contrast is that the producer, who previously had a serious and unapproachable demeanor, was like the boy next door when eating.

"Yaoyao, you should try to win over Brother Jingyuan."

"We won't have to worry about future resources."

"Besides, your two families are related, so it's practically a loan."

...

Meng Ziyi smiled slightly and spoke frankly.

"I don't want to be in a relationship."

"And actually, I wasn't familiar with Brother Jingyuan before."

"Besides, Ziyi, didn't you add Jingyuan's WeChat account?"

"You can give it a try."

Chen Yao shook her head and said that she really didn't have that idea right now.

The girls were just joking; nobody took it to heart.

Moreover, the two of them quickly focused their energy on joining the film crew.

This is my first time acting, and it's an important supporting role, so I can't mess it up.

Jingyuan defied all opposition and made the decision to marry the two of them, but there can't be any mistakes.

Ten days later!

At a high school in Qingdao, the filming of "The Best of Us" officially began.

Chen Jingyuan arrived in Qingdao from Yanjing last night.

Chen Jingyuan has been in a very good mood these past few days.

He visited various tourist attractions in Yanjing, and he had previously invested more than three million yuan in the stock market.

I recall that a few stocks saw significant gains, which is quite good.

This brings Chen Jingyuan's current funds to over five million.

He will be stationed with the entire crew for the next period of time until filming is completed.

According to the calculation, it should take about two more months.

It then took a month to complete the editing, and we aim to release it before August.

The sooner it's done, the better!

The reason is simple: Chen Jingyuan knew that there was a video called "Fleet of Time" on the other end of the Sohu video platform.

The film will be released in early August.

To secure the title of the first youth web drama, we need to work overtime.

Liu Chang naturally had no objection to this, and in fact, he was eager to finish filming as soon as possible.

For a director, the success of a TV series is the best reward.

And just as the best of us was starting to film.

The outside world is quite lively!

First, Alibaba officially announced its acquisition of China Culture Media Group Limited for HK$62.44 billion.

For many traditional entertainment companies, this is a real threat.

Then there was Wen Zhang's "See You on Monday" incident at the end of March, which caused his public image to collapse and his future to be ruined.

Although Chen Jingyuan already knew about this, it didn't stop him from revisiting it on Weibo.

It's not bad to just join in the fun.

"Jingyuan, do you think they'll get a divorce!"

Meng Ziyi couldn't help but lean closer to Chen Jingyuan and ask him.

Since joining the film crew, this person has been getting quite close to me.

The reason is simple: Meng Ziyi found that she became more gentle when she was near Director Chen Jingyuan.

Unfortunately, Meng Ziyi's acting skills are lacking, and she has caused quite a few problems.

In addition to playing the second female lead, she actually has quite a few scenes.

Although the director tried his best to guide them, it still takes time to understand.

Chen Jingyuan had gotten used to Meng Ziyi's behavior over time.

"Not for now!"

Chen Jingyuan spoke slowly, already knowing the outcome.

Love is easy, marriage is difficult; cherish every moment.

Indeed, this was the case, as Ma Yili's post on Weibo signified the temporary end of the matter.
