Chapter 570 You are in trouble
Facing Xu Kun's gaze, Liu Xiaoli's first thought was to hold her daughter's wrist tightly to prevent her from running away again.
Liu Yifei struggled subconsciously twice, but the force she used was much weaker than Liu Xiaoli had imagined.
Liu Xiaoli didn't have time to think about what this meant. Seeing that Xu Kun didn't look away, she quickly pulled Liu Yifei towards him with a smile on her face.
"Director Xu."
But when she got there, she called out "Director Xu" softly, and then she didn't know what to say - mainly because she couldn't say those servile and inappropriate words in front of her daughter.
Seeing this, Xu Kun waved behind him and someone immediately handed him a script.
After flipping through it casually and making sure there was no problem, Xu Kun gently threw the script to Liu Yifei.
Liu Xiaoli was afraid that her daughter would not accept it and would embarrass Director Xu in public, so she quickly extended her hand, but Liu Yifei also subconsciously extended her arm.
The mother and daughter's hands bumped into each other in mid-air, and they perfectly missed the flying script.
"Oops~"
Liu Xiaoli quickly squatted down to pick it up, scolding: "Why are you so clumsy, kid?"
Xu Kun ignored her and said directly to Liu Yifei: "Let's take a look at the script first. The general plot has not changed, but it is estimated that there will be a younger sister role added later, who will serve as the heroine in the second half, just like Ah Zhu and Ah Zi."
Liu Yifei took the script from her mother in a daze. When she was trying to say something, Xu Kun had already turned around to greet Zhang Guoli's family who had just arrived.
"This this……"
Liu Xiaoli looked at his receding back, then at the script in her daughter's hand, and said hesitantly, "Do we think we've got the role now?"
Liu Yifei was even more confused. She subconsciously lowered her head and flipped through the script. Suddenly, someone said, "You don't want to read the script here, do you?"
Liu Yifei looked in the direction of the voice and immediately asked in surprise: "Sister Liu Tao, why is it you?"
Liu Tao once played Ah Zhu in the bearded version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", so the two of them are old acquaintances, but their friendship is not deep and they seldom interact with each other in normal times.
Liu Tao rolled his eyes and said sourly, "What else? Do you hope that it's Jiang Yiyan who comes?"
This is the sequel to "Boss", and it is Xu Kun's first time to be a TV series director and to act in a TV series again. Unfortunately, such a good opportunity is destined to be out of his reach...
Liu Yifei didn't know how to answer. Fortunately, Liu Tao didn't point at her. He just hooked his finger at the mother and daughter and said, "Let's go. This cocktail party will probably last for a long time. Let's go upstairs and find a quiet place first."
Having said that, she turned around and walked towards the stairwell, seemingly not worried at all that the mother and daughter would refuse.
But Liu Yifei had no intention of following.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli quickly grabbed her daughter's wrist again and said in a self-deceptive tone, "She's right. This is indeed not a suitable place to read scripts."
Liu Yifei looked at the script in her hand, then looked at her mother's hand clasped around her wrist, and sighed helplessly, "I can go, but you don't have to go."
Then he struggled to break free from Liu Xiaoli's hand and followed Liu Tao with heavy steps.
Liu Xiaoli breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, but as she watched her daughter walk farther and farther away and finally disappear in the stairwell, she suddenly felt empty in her heart.
I'm doing this for her own good!
In the end, Liu Xiaoli could only repeat this sentence in her mind over and over again, as if she was hypnotizing herself.
In the corner, Jiang Yiyan watched all this quietly with a glass of champagne in hand. If possible, she really wanted to record this scene and what was going to happen next, and then play it in public at the class reunion.
Unfortunately……
Jiang Yiyan was extremely reluctant to let Xu Kun accept Liu Yifei, but she was a clear-headed woman after all, and she knew what the foundation of her survival was.
Never mind. Our relationship will be closer from now on, and it will be convenient for me to bully her if I want to.
In the end, Jiang Yiyan could only comfort herself in this way.
On the other side, after Xu Kun threw out the script, he never cared about the mother and daughter again, because ever since he learned from Zhao Liying what happened today, he knew that Liu Yifei would definitely obey.
Otherwise, if you really reject yourself so much and don't want to take this Yangguan Road, you just need to continue to stay away from yourself. There is no need to come to the venue.
Just like the resolute Qin Lan, the silent Yang Suo, and Yang Rong who only appears in Hao Lei's gossip...
Let’s not mention Liu Tianxian.
Xu Kun met Zhang Guoli and his family of three, looked Zhang Guoli up and down, and said in amazement: "Uncle Zhang, how much weight have you lost?"
Zhang Guoli raised his hand and made a number eight gesture, then said weakly: "I'm so hungry that I don't even want to talk. Please tell me when the food is served so that I can hide away quickly."
Ever since he took on the role of Lao Jiang, Zhang Guoli has been trying to lose weight. Unfortunately, no matter how much he loses weight, he still can't achieve the thinness of Lao Jiang due to his poor foundation.
The most troublesome thing about playing a modern celebrity is that his or her appearance has long been deeply rooted in people's minds, and if there is a big difference in appearance, it will always give people a sense of incongruity.
In comparison, Xu Kun's performance as Chiang Ching-kuo was better. Most people in China do not have a clear idea of what Chiang Ching-kuo looked like when he was young.
After joking with Zhang Guoli, Xu Kun greeted Deng Jie and Zhang Mo.
I haven't seen this rebellious young man for a while. He looks like his spine has been removed and he is even more powerless than his father who is hungry all day long.
Thinking of the reasons why he was imprisoned in his previous life, Xu Kun had no intention of delving into it. If he really wanted to find out, it would not be appropriate to report it, and it would not be appropriate not to report it either. It was better to just keep ignorant.
Just as Xu Kun was greeting Zhang Guoli and his wife, another unexpected guest arrived - Wang Jinghua, the top mainland agent who had caused the hostility between Huayi and Chengtian.
Speaking of which, Xu Kun has heard the name Hua Jie so many times since he entered the industry, but this is the first time he has met her in real life.
This also proves from the side that Xu has now become a force that cannot be ignored in the circle.
The guests continued to be entertained until the auspicious time of four o'clock in the afternoon, when Xu Kun gathered several vice presidents and the secretary general Lao Chen to hold a plaque-hanging and ribbon-cutting ceremony surrounded by countless celebrities.
The subsequent cocktail party lasted until after eight o'clock in the evening.
After seeing off the last wave of guests, Xu Kun, who was a little drunk, was about to go upstairs to talk about the luminous script, when suddenly, Young Master Wang appeared from the side.
"Director Xu."
Mr. Wang's smile seemed to be squeezed out of granite, and it was cold and hard from the inside out. "Look, it's already 2009. When will Liu Tao get the role?"
It’s not that he can’t hold it any longer, it’s mainly because the debt collectors can’t wait any longer.
Xu Kun paused and frowned, "If she doesn't pick the script, I can arrange it for her at any time, but do you just want her to act as soon as possible?"
"Then, when will the right role be available?"
Young Master Wang's voice was filled with tears: "Director Xu, I, I really can't stand it anymore. At least I can give those people a little hope!"
Xu Kun thought for a moment and said, "How about this. After the New Year, our Youth Directors Association will join hands with Beijing, Taiwan, LeTV, and major film and television schools to organize a variety show to audition young directors. When the time comes, let Liu Tao be the main guest performer. It should be able to gain quite a bit of popularity."
"Light is just heat..."
"Now that you're popular in the entertainment industry, are you still worried about not making money?"
Xu Kun interrupted him impatiently and scolded: "If I were you, I would do everything I could to help her rehearse in advance so that she can better show herself on the show."
Liu Tao's acting skills are pretty good, otherwise Xu Kun would not have asked her to perform as a supporting actor. But she is not the best in the same age group. At least Hao Lei is better than her.
Therefore, whether she can perform well or not depends on whether she is well prepared.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely urge her when I get back!"
Seeing Xu Kun's impatience, Young Master Wang quickly took advantage of the situation and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, could you tell me what time we can go back tonight?"
