Chapter 194: Withered Before Blooming

Chapter 194 Withered Before Blooming

After dinner, Xu Kun and Li Yixiang bought a bunch of fruits and snacks out of their own pockets while they were in high spirits, and went to visit the crew of "Wulin Waijia" again - the car was driven by Jiang Yiyan, who had been acting as Xu Kun's full-time driver whenever there was drinking recently.

The crew started filming at the end of November last year, and there is no sign of completion yet. It is said that they were writing the script while filming, just like an American TV series.

More than two months later, Tongfu Inn is still so shabby.

Because it was a spur-of-the-moment idea, Xu Kun and Li Yixiang did not inform Baoqiang in advance. They had intended to give him a surprise. However, when they arrived at the shooting site, they saw Baoqiang staring at a girl intently.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Zhu Wushuang who appeared in the second half.

When Xu Kun came to the crew for a guest appearance, Zhu Wushuang had not yet joined the crew, so this was the first time to meet him in real life.

hmm~

She is also an ordinary girl, especially when she plays a silly character, so her appearance is somewhat affected.

"Bao Qiang~"

Xu Kun slapped Baoqiang on the shoulder, and Baoqiang, who was wearing a black police uniform, jumped three feet high in fright.

Turning around, he saw Xu Kun and Li Yixiang. He was so surprised that his voice changed: "Brother Kun?! Brother Li?! Why are you here?!"

"Shh~"

Li Yixiang quickly pointed inside the inn and gestured for silence.

Xu Kun put his arm around Bao Qiang's shoulders and said with a grin, "Why did you say I came here? I recently developed clairvoyance, and I heard something was wrong with you, so I came here."

As he said that, he raised his chin towards Zhu Wushuang inside and asked, "What do you like about her? Is it because she's as silly as you?"

"No no no!"

Bao Qiang quickly explained: "This is just a character setting. She is actually very smart. She graduated from the Department of Economic Information Management of Tongji University!"

Okay, now we have found the source.

Xu Kun asked Li Yixiang who was standing beside him, "Tongji University seems to be quite impressive?"

"A 985 key university, of course it's awesome."

After Li Yixiang finished speaking, he asked Baoqiang in confusion: "But our Beijing Film Academy, Shanghai Theatre Academy, and Central Academy of Drama are all regular first-class universities. They are not much worse than Tongji University in terms of reputation, right? Do you discriminate against us art exam candidates?"

This school ranking method is indeed worthy of the old monitor of Beijing Film Academy.

"how come?"

Baoqiang's eyes wandered, and he said guiltily: "I just want to find someone with good grades to improve the genes of our Wang family."

In front of the two big brothers, he did not hide his "wolf ambitions".

"Don't say that to anyone's face."

As they were talking, the filming inside came to a temporary halt. Someone noticed the four big bags under the feet of Xu Kun and Li Yixiang, and the seven-member group from the inn swarmed out.

'Mo Xiaobei' rushed over and hugged a big bag of snacks.

Jiang Chao waved his hand towards Xu Kun, then grabbed a bag of fruit and said without even turning his head, "I'll make you a whole fruit platter."

In fact, his cooking skills are pretty good, not as bad as in the drama.

Sha Yi came up with a smile and clasped his fists, saying, "Brother Yidianhong, I miss you so much after not seeing you for so long."

Xu Kun also clasped his fists in return. After meeting several acquaintances one by one, Xu Kun looked at Zhu Wushuang with pretended curiosity.

Yan Nilian introduced them, "This is Ni Hongjie, who is also the main character in the series - Hongjie. This is Xu Kun, who starred in the popular series "Heavenly Swordsman" last year."

Ni Hongjie.

Xu Kun secretly memorized the name and prepared to go back and secretly find out the other party's background.

Then he asked a few more questions in a roundabout way and found out that the other party was born in 78, four years older than Bao Qiang.

EMMM…

It’s not bad, it’s equivalent to a big gold brick.

The main person looks young, and when standing next to Baoqiang, you can't tell the age difference. But in terms of height...

Women naturally look taller, and Baoqiang is a few centimeters shorter than them, which makes it even more obvious at first glance.

Also, Ni Hongjie always speaks with a sharp accent, which is somewhat similar to Baoqiang.

While Xu Kun was trying to find out about Ni Hongjie's background, Shang Jing had her eyes on Jiang Yiyan and was begging her to play a cameo role.

He also said that the crew could write jokes on the spot and guarantee a character that would satisfy Jiang Yiyan.

However, Jiang Yiyan finally refused, saying that she would join the crew of "The Princess" when she returned - in fact, the filming of that drama would not start for another seven or eight days, and she mainly looked down on this simple crew.

Shang Jing is also a smart person. She could see what Jiang Yiyan was thinking and finally didn't force it.

After eating, drinking and laughing for about an hour, Xu Kun looked at the sky and said goodbye on the grounds of not delaying the filming of the crew.

Before leaving, he specifically told Baoqiang not to be stingy when pursuing a woman, to eat and spend money, and to call her directly if she needed anything. Even if he and Li Yixiang were not available, he could ask Lao Jia to send someone to deliver it.

Wait until we get back to the city.

Xu Kun immediately contacted the entertainment industry know-it-all Li Dazui. Dazui's gossip skills were impeccable, and he quickly sent the news over.

Ni Hongjie, now 27 years old, first entered the circle after shooting a Tingmei underwear advertisement in 01 and became an advertising model. During this period, she even had a conflict with her family because of the underwear advertisement.

Later, he began to dabble in film and television, starring in or participating in four or five dramas, but he has always been in a tepid state. In terms of fame, he is far behind Bao Qiang today.

This is good news. With Baoqiang's personality, if he were inferior to the other person in every way, he would probably be too embarrassed to pursue the other person.

then……

"Huh?! Ni Hongjie is already married?!"

"Yes, in 1999, when she was 21 years old, she married a rich kid. However, she never took the initiative to publicize this after entering the circle, so most people don't know about it."

Got~

It seems that I have to visit Pinggu, bring stories and wine, and pay tribute to Baoqiang's love that withered before it even blossomed.

Xu Kun was loading Lao Baigan raw liquor into the trunk when he suddenly received a call from Deng Chao.

After answering the phone, Deng Chao was silent for a long time before he said, "I'm in love again."

"so what?"

Xu Kun was not surprised at all. Instead, he wondered why Deng Chao told him this. Did he want him to tell Hao Lei?

Deng Chao was silent for a while before he said, "I heard you want to switch to a modern fashion drama?"

"Is that so?"

Xu Kun then became excited: "Why, do you have a suitable book?"

"There is indeed a script that suits you very well. The copyright is in the hands of my teacher Tian Youliang. You can just tell him that I introduced it to you. But if you want to make this script into a movie, you have to find a way to attract investment yourself."

"As long as the book is suitable, it's not a big deal!"

Xu Kun said this with full confidence. With his relationship with Lao Jia and LeTV's current development momentum, raising funds for filming the TV series is not a problem at all.

Deng Chao fell silent again, and after a long while he said, "You are her best friend now, and she is at her most vulnerable. If you have time, take Huo Siyan with you to accompany her more. Don't let her be fooled by others."

Tsk~

It turns out that this is why he took the initiative to send me the script.

Xu Kun asked in silence: "Is this your lingering love or your final farewell?"

"I think it's the latter. I think I will behave more maturely this time and won't make the same mistake again."

Realizing that Deng Chao was about to hang up, Xu Kun hurriedly asked, "Who did you like this time?"

"It's Sun Li, the heroine of last year's Bloody Romance."
