They did not stay in the hotel where the meet-and-greet was held. Instead, they took a bus and drove for four and a half hours to the scenic hotel in Baishuihe County, where the exterior scene was held. It was already dusk when they arrived, and the sky was dark.
As soon as they settled down, Jiang Yage ran to Chen Guang to ask for credit before they could have dinner. "How was it? I did well today, didn't I? "
"Why are you knocking on my door? If someone takes a photo, won't it make the headlines? This is Cainan Province, not Beijing. You're not a local tyrant like in Beijing. Who knows, someone might take a photo and post it on the Internet. It'll definitely cause an uproar. You'd better behave yourself. "
Chen Guang quickly turned sideways to block Jiang Yage from entering the room.
"Jiang Yage Enters Chen Guang's Hotel Room at Night. The Two Spend XX Hours Alone."
Just thinking about this title was enough to make one's scalp tingle.
Jiang Yage understood what he meant, but she was a little unwilling. "If someone takes a photo, we can say that we were rehearsing our lines. We have to go to the outdoor scene tomorrow. There will be more people there. It's a rare opportunity."
"Okay, okay. You can stop using your supernatural powers. It's not the right time."
"Then I'll play a video of you tonight. Actually, I secretly brought something with me. Do you want to see me exercise?"
Seeing that her attack had failed, Jiang Yage decisively took a detour and winked at him.
Chen Guang fell for it immediately. Reason told him to shake his head, but his head shook violently as if it had been electrocuted.
"Great, awesome!"
"You're a perverted guy, but you don't have the guts."
Jiang Yage was satisfied this time. She turned around and wanted to go back to her room, but she saw Big Beard Deng, Yang Xi, Old Ma, the floor manager, Ren Chong, Zhao Yueling, and Zhou Ya walking over from the other end of the hotel aisle.
The main creative team was almost all here, but no one knew what they were going to do.
Big Beard and the others looked up and saw Jiang Yage blocking Chen Guang's door. They were shocked and wanted to turn their heads and pretend that they didn't see anything.
No one was blind. Almost everyone in the production crew could see that not only was Chen Guang and Jin Shiyue in a mess, but he also had an unspeakable relationship with Jiang Yage.
Jiang Yage's words to fool the reporters didn't matter to the others. It wasn't the first day that the people in the industry knew her. What she said about needing a script was nonsense.
She was purposely putting on a kiss scene with Chen Guang!
This was a terrifying triangle relationship. He had accidentally seen something he shouldn't have seen!
But if he turned around and left now, wouldn't it be too obvious?
Fortunately, Jiang Yage reacted quickly. Instead of avoiding him, she turned around with a smile and said, "Uncle Deng, all of you are here. Where are you going? It's going to be dark soon. Don't tell me he's going to the set to scout the location so early? The road conditions aren't very good. "
Chen Guang also followed them calmly, as if he didn't have any ulterior motives. "That's right. The traffic in Cainan Province isn't as good as Beijing. The place we're going seems to be very deep in the scenic area. Don't be so dedicated. Let's go tomorrow."
Deng Xiaogang secretly gave Chen Guang and Jiang Yage a thumbs up. If I didn't know that both of you are super professional actors, I would have thought that the two of you were no longer together.
Big Beard rubbed his beard and said in a slightly distressed manner, "I wanted to ask the hotel to send dinner to our respective rooms so that we could have a good rest after eating. But I suddenly received a call just now. It said that the local leaders and some business celebrities in Baishuihe County heard that we were coming. They set up a table early and waited for us. We have to go and entertain them. "
Chen Guang frowned slightly. "Can't we eat another day? We've been on the road all day from Beijing. Who would miss this meal? It's not like we haven't eaten delicacies before. "
Big Beard shook his head helplessly. "After we settle this matter in one go, we have to go all out for filming. It's okay if we work a little hard today. I like to shoot in one go. Going to have a meal with them will save us a lot of trouble."
Deng Xiaogang's words were actually not strange in the circle.
Shooting a scene outside was not like shooting in the Film and Television City, especially for a big production like Women. Even if it was just a small scene, it might involve a lot of manpower and material resources. If they were to go out of town, they had to build a good relationship with the local gangsters to prevent any trouble.
For example, if they wanted to film a scene on a road, they had to close a section of the road, which required the coordination of the local government.
Another example was when they needed hundreds or thousands of small actors, it was best to find the local people to help coordinate. If they relied on the crew to settle it, Old Ma would be exhausted to death. What if there were a few troublemakers hiding in the middle?
Or, if they did not give face to others and offended them, they could find a bunch of hooligans to ride motorcycles and drive around in the scene while singing. It would also be very disgusting.
Or, when you were finishing work at night, they could secretly find some people to dismantle a few sets and steal some things from the set. It would not cost much, but it was very disgusting and would take up time.
So even if Big Beard Deng and the others were tired from traveling the whole day and wanted to lie in bed and pretend to be dead, they had to go to this social gathering.
If they could refuse a banquet, it would not be called a social gathering.
In fact, those local leaders and so-called business celebrities had never seen a star before. When they heard that a big star had come, they set up such a table and said that they wanted to get to know each other and exchange business cards. But who would really contact them in the future?
They just turned around and threw them into the corner.
What other people want is nothing more than to see something strange and fresh. They feel that eating at the same table with celebrities will make them look good. When they come back, they can brag to other small bosses, businessmen, or politicians from other places. I drank with so-and-so director, and I ate with so-and-so celebrity. That Ren Chong's Huangmei opera is really nice. He doesn't just know how to act.
That was about it.
To put it bluntly, other people regarded a star as a monkey and wanted to see a monkey show.
Everyone knew the truth, but it could not be said.
Chen Guang was very unhappy. He was the major shareholder of "Women". To put it bluntly, everyone, including Deng Xiaogang, worked for him.
Now others wanted to make his staff more tired and disturb his team's filming, which was to hurt his way of making money.
Seeing that Chen Guang's eyebrows were getting tighter and tighter, Deng Xiaogang misunderstood and thought that he did not want to go, so he quickly said, "Chen Guang, don't worry about it. You and Solomon have a good rest. We'll go."
Yang Xi also tried to smooth things over. "It's okay. I'm used to it. It's not bad to know more celebrities. If I want to work alone, the real estate bosses in Baishuihe County can invest in me. Chen Guang, don't think that you are short of money now, but you can't underestimate the real estate bosses in small places like this. There are quite a few of them who have billions of yuan. "
Big Beard stared at Yang Xi. "So you've been looking forward to working alone?"
They teased each other and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Big Beard looked at his watch again. "Well, it's getting late. We'll go first."
Chen Guang asked, "Didn't they invite me and Solomon?"
Ren Chong said with a smile, "They did, but Solomon's identity is different. Who can let her go to social activities? As for you, Chen Guang, you are not an ordinary person. I don't dare to trouble you. "
"Let's go!"
Big Beard was the first to leave.
Chen Guang still wanted to ask more questions. He didn't want everyone to go, but he was stopped by Jiang Yage. "Alright, don't ask anymore. This kind of thing is very common. When we were filming 'Kingdom' last time, Beardy also went to socialize a lot. Do you really think that filming a scene is like holding the camera, and it's over with a click? It's a lot of trouble. "
After saying that, she stretched again and muttered, "Oh, I'm so tired. I can't take it anymore. I have to go back and exercise."
She put a lot of emphasis on the word exercise.
Chen Guang raised his eyebrows and began to feel itchy in his heart.
But before Jiang Yage could enter the room, there was a sudden noise from the other end of the corridor.
Big Beard Deng's voice came from afar. "Mr. Bao, today is really not the right time. Xiao Jiang is a little unwell. It's really not convenient for her today. No … No way! "
"Director Deng, are you trying to fool us? Weren't you all fine at the press conference? I clearly saw that Jiang Yage was in good spirits when she spoke. Why, in our Baishuihe County, she's not comfortable even before her butt touches the bed? Is it because the water in our Baishuihe County is not good, or is it because the mountains here are an eyesore, or is it because the people here are not well received? "
The voice sounded like that of a young man. His voice seemed to have smoked too much, and it was a little hoarse and sharp, like the sound of a knife being sharpened on a stone.
"Mr. Bao, what are you talking about? You know that celebrities have to hold on no matter how tired they are. It's really not convenient today. How about another day, I'll specially invite you to a banquet as an apology?"
"No! No way! Don't try to play dumb with me! What kind of logic is that? I'm here today to see Jiang Yage. I didn't even attend my friend's wedding! So what if she's a celebrity? Haven't I seen it before? Who didn't give me face when they came here in the past? Is Jiang Yage that big of a shot? Can't she even give me face for a meal? What's there to be arrogant about! To tell you the truth, she has to come today even if she doesn't want to! In this Baishuihe County, no one dares to not give me face! "
"Mr. Bao! Don't make things difficult for me! If something happens, even your dad might not be able to handle it! "
Big Beardy even blocked the people at the crossing, and there was a hint of anger in his voice.
"Yo, Director Deng, you're still blowing your beard and glaring at me? Do you think I haven't seen the world? What do you mean by that? What do you mean by bringing up my dad? Are you calling me a spoiled brat? Let me tell you, in Baishuihe County, even if you're a dragon, you have to coil up. If you're a tiger, you have to lie down! Even if you're a god, you have to accept it! Don't drag my dad into this. He's sitting at the table right now! If you don't give me face, you're also not giving my dad face! Get out of the way! "
On the other side, Big Beard Deng's fat body suddenly retreated. He staggered, obviously having been pushed by someone.
Big Beard turned his head and looked at Chen Guang and Jiang Yage. He saw that the two of them were still standing at the door. They were desperately trying to signal them to enter the room.
But it was too late. A skinny, dark-skinned young man wearing a custom-made miniaturized Armani suit turned around and stood out with a gloomy face. He saw Chen Guang and Jiang Yage at the door.
