Chapter 405 Neither salty nor bland
[Uh... only two more chapters]
This signing event was almost turned into an internal team-building event for Huayi - of course, in addition to internal personnel, many people with connections were also invited.
When Xu Kun brought Huo Siyan down from upstairs, the newly decorated hall was already filled with twinkling stars.
"Director Xu."
"Brother Kun."
As soon as Xu Kun showed up, he met Shuang Bing and Ren Yan. While greeting the three of them, he felt Huo Siyan hugging him tighter, as if she was afraid that someone would snatch her away.
It was she who wanted to separate, so let's separate...
hmm~
This song doesn't exist yet.
After a few pleasantries, Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao also came over.
Although Xu Kun had a better relationship with Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming had always been polite to him. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person, so he naturally would not help either of them.
The main reason is that Deng Chao has been gaining the upper hand recently, so he doesn't need any help.
"Struggle" has such a lasting effect that it is still on the air and is highly praised by the younger generation on the Internet - although the only one who truly relies on his own struggle is Huazi, who keeps failing.
After the greetings, Huang Xiaoming took the initiative to go somewhere else to socialize. Deng Chao suddenly said, "I just heard from Baoqiang that you are going to buy a new house? If you like one, let me know. Sun Li and I will go and keep you company."
When did Baoqiang become so talkative?
Could it be that he was infected by the host’s girlfriend?
"forget it."
Xu Kun complained: "You guys are showing off your affection now, I'm afraid you will be jealous to death later."
"嘁~"
Deng Chao raised his middle finger.
Xu Kun looked at the 'leading actress' who was talking to the Wang brothers, picked up a glass of champagne, pointed over there and asked, "Are you going to sign the contract today, or are you going to reshoot 'The Story of a Princess'?"
Deng Chao corrected, "The other show is called 'The Story of a Noble Family', while the one shot by Sun Li and that guy is called 'The Story of a Noble Family' - but today the three most famous girls in 'The Story of a Noble Family' are all here."
Needless to say, Dong Jie and Liu Yifei are the female lead and the second female lead. Shu Chang also met Liu Yifei in "The Story of a Noble Family" and became her best friend.
Also present is Pan Xingyi, who plays the third concubine in the drama.
Deng Chao also took a glass of champagne from the side and asked curiously, "Why don't you go over? Baoqiang was just dragged away to show up. As the boss of Huayi, isn't it appropriate for you not to show up?"
"Forget it, I won't bother you anymore."
Xu Kun shook his head. With Jiang Yiyan and Zhu Yawen around, he was destined to be disgusted with the mother and daughter of the Liu family. He came here entirely for the sake of the Wang brothers and to support Zhu Yawen. There was really nothing to say to the mother and daughter of the Liu family.
But he didn't want to get involved, but he couldn't help but have someone thinking about him.
Not long after, Wang Zhonglei came over here with Liu Yifei, Dong Jie, Shu Chang, and Aunt Liu who was hanging behind.
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Xu Kun had no choice but to greet him with his wine glass raised.
"Hahaha~"
Wang Zhonglei laughed as he came up and said, "Director Xu, I don't need to introduce Yifei and Shu Chang to you, right? This is Dong Jie, who played Leng Qingqiu in "The Story of a Noble Family" and was the dream lover of countless audiences!"
Haha~
In fact, this is the one I am most familiar with.
Seeing Dong Jie's fake hand extension, Xu Kun had no choice but to pretend that they were meeting for the first time and held her hand together: "Ms. Dong's name is naturally well known to me."
Dong Jie smiled reservedly and said, "I have actually met Director Xu at the celebration party for Lost on Journey. Director Xu left a deep impression on me that day. I really hope to have the opportunity to work with Director Xu in the future."
That day was deep enough.
Speaking of which, does schizophrenia help her acting skills? Just looking at her current appearance, who can believe that this famous pure and innocent girl is actually a mentally ill person and a sex addict in private?
"sure."
Xu Kun laughed it off, then turned to Shu Chang and said with a smile: "Shu Chang is getting more and more beautiful. Last time I heard Jiang Xin say that you have recently switched from mythological dramas to science fiction themes?" "Actually, it should be considered a fantasy drama with some science fiction..."
Shu Chang was a little embarrassed. The plot of "Magic Phone" can only be described as fantastic. The mobile phone AI she played was named Shanu, which was truly both rustic and foreign, scientific and magical.
Finally, Xu Kun turned to Liu Yifei, and at the same time, Liu Xiaoli quietly moved behind her daughter, looking at Xu Kun with a fierce look.
Seeing this, Xu Kun simply said indifferently: "Ms. Liu, welcome to join Huayi."
"Haha~"
Seeing this, Wang Zhonglei said with a double meaning and a smile: "Yifei, Director Xu is one of the pillars of our Huayi. If you want to have a long-term development in the future, you must have a good relationship with our Director Xu."
Liu Yifei was full of repulsion, but she still obediently stretched out her hand to Xu Kun and said, "Director Xu, please give me more guidance in the future."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Xu Kun withdrew his fingertips from hers as soon as they touched, and his attitude remained lukewarm.
Seeing this, Shu Chang wanted to help ease the situation, but she didn't know what to say - although she had a good relationship with Liu Yifei, she was an outsider to Hua Yi.
After a few awkward conversations, Wang Zhongjun sent someone to ask Liu Yifei to take a photo. Liu Yifei then apologized as if she had been pardoned, and fled with her mother and Shu Chang.
Dong Jie gave Xu Kun a final sidelong glance and followed him with a smile.
"how?"
After they left, Wang Zhonglei laughed and said, "You are not tempted by three beautiful women. Are you too lazy to be extravagant before you turn 30?"
"I am as immovable as a mountain and as strong as a spear."
Xu Kun shrugged and said, "Don't you see that they are wary of us? Not to mention that we have arranged a show of force. Even if we are warm now, it will cool down soon."
"It's cold, what's there to be afraid of?"
Wang Zhonglei shook his head and said, "If ordinary women are made of water, then these female stars are made of cast iron. It's not easy to warm them up, but if you make them feel cold enough, they will start to become brittle, and then you can poke a hole in them."
This has even led to a theory.
However, Xu Kun does not quite agree with this theory. He is not the kind of person who must get someone he likes. If both parties are willing, then they can hit it off. Why force it?
Of course, if Huayi wanted to control Liu Yifei, Xu Kun would not interfere. After all, it was the mother and daughter of the Liu family who made the mistake first, so it was understandable for the Wang brothers to do so.
"Seriously."
Xu Kun changed the subject and said, "Mr. Han from China Film Group has confirmed that he will attend the listing ceremony in Thailand. Will you go or will Mr. Wang go in person?"
"I have discussed this with my brother. Now is the critical moment for the official launch of the project of "The Forbidden Kingdom". In order to avoid the Americans playing tricks, we two brothers can't leave - so, why don't we let Director Feng go with us."
"Can this be done?"
Xu Kun questioned, "Isn't Director Feng undergoing treatment?"
"Director Feng's illness doesn't affect his movements. Maybe a trip to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand will help his condition."
"That's fine, as long as Director Feng and Sister Xu Fan have no objection."
After hearing what Wang Zhonglei said, Xu Kun stopped talking.
In fact, Feng Xiaogang is more suitable to go than the Wang brothers. After all, he is more famous and many people know him even in Southeast Asia.
Almost half an hour later, with the witness of nearly a hundred guests, the signing ceremony was finally held.
Wang Zhongjun and Liu Yifei signed the contract one after another and showed the original to everyone, which won warm applause.
However, apart from a few people who knew the situation, such as Xu Kun, not many people noticed that as the applause started, Cai Yinong and Zhu Yawen also mixed into the crowd.
