Chapter 390 Cooperating with the Performance
Director Xu is straightforward, but that doesn't mean he's stupid.
Having been in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry for so long, even if you haven't eaten pork, you have at least seen pigs run.
After listening to Director Xu's explanation, Cheng Ling said happily: "Thank you, I understand. I'll go back and think about it. If you have any questions, I'll contact you by phone."
She pointed to Director Xu's phone and smiled meaningfully.
Director Xu knew that Cheng Ling was so mysterious, which meant that the person who wanted to harm him was in this room.
Now, he had to cooperate with Cheng Ling's performance.
After Cheng Ling returned to his seat, he picked up his phone and swiped it for a while, and then tapped it.
Not long after, the phone on Director Xu's desk vibrated.
【Cheng Xiaoling: In addition to the producer Hu of Life Scene and the waiter who was responsible for pouring wine, there should be other insiders. Let's act out a play together and find them out. Don't really drink your wine, pretend to drink it. After it's almost done, you pretend to be drunk, and they will send you back to the room. Your room is monitored by them, so when you get to the room, pretend to be asleep and don't alarm them. Don't worry, there will be no danger. 】
Liang Xiaolei quickly got the wine and returned to the private room.
"Hello, everyone, the wine is here!"
Dinners without wine always feel like something is missing.
Director Xu watched Liang Xiaolei open the bottle and said:
"Our crew doesn't have a drinking culture. I'm greedy, so I'll have a couple of sips. I have a good alcohol tolerance, so drinking a little won't affect tomorrow's work. You guys can do whatever you want, do what you can."
It's a dinner party!
How can you not drink?
Moreover, the filming is about to start, and you absolutely cannot drink during the filming.
Most people still clamor to try the local specialty wine.
Everyone drinks - the wine should be clean.
Then the problem should be with the wine glass. Director Xu thought.
But I don't know who is targeting him.
However, he was not surprised.
Over the years, she had offended many people because of her honesty, and some colleagues were jealous and tried to sabotage her.
Producer Gong knew nothing about the undercurrents here.
She picked up the wine glass and said with high spirits: "Our opening ceremony today went quite smoothly! I hope that everyone in our crew can help each other, correct each other, and make progress together like a family! Strive to finish the filming as soon as possible!"
Everyone raised their heads and drank the wine.
Director Xu was very smart. Before holding the wine glass, he took advantage of others not paying attention and spilled some wine.
When everyone raised their heads to drink together, he secretly poured the wine on his front and cuffs.
This can also make the body smell of wine.
Cheng Ling also drank the wine in her glass.
Of course, she pretended to drink.
Cheng Ling is a super magician - when the other party is concentrating, she can play tricks and steal the day.
Not to mention that Hu Xuetong can't stare at her every move openly.
Hu Xuetong occasionally glanced.
Soon, Cheng Ling's eyes began to blur.
On the other side, Director Xu drank one cup after another and became visibly drunk.
The smile on Hu Xuetong's face became more and more obvious.
This thing is almost done!
Director Xu did pour one cup after another.
But he actually secretly poured it on the napkin, the bone plate, the bowl of rice, and even on himself many times.
It's just like dealing with diners who can't finish their food at a buffet.
Cautious, careful and hidden.
As a famous director, he often has to personally instruct the actors on how to act.
He was drunk at this moment, his voice was louder, and he boasted louder, but he couldn't help swaying from side to side, and he was drunk.
When he almost fell for the third time, Producer Gong said: "Director Xu, don't drink anymore! It's too much to drink more!"
"I'm not drunk..." Director Xu muttered.
Producer Gong said without hesitation: "Don't drink anymore! Hu Xuetong--"
Hu Xuetong ran over immediately.
Producer Gong said: "Is Director Xu's room card ready?"
Hu Xuetong said while rummaging through her small bag: "It's ready!"
She took out a small zipper bag with a label-Director Xu, 2013.
"Director Xu, this is your room card."
Director Xu muttered and grabbed it.
The smell of alcohol made Hu Xuetong's head hurt.
Hu Xuetong turned around and shouted: "Xiao Li, come and help send Director Xu back to the room."
Xiao Li was Hu Xuetong's follower, a taciturn young man with glasses.
Director Xu put his arm around Xiao Li's shoulders and staggered out of the private room.
A table of people stood up to see him off.
Director Xu waved his hand carelessly, and he quickly glanced at Cheng Ling.
Cheng Ling also looked a little drunk, and waved at him.
But her eyes were quite sober.
Director Xu felt relieved and left while muttering to himself.
