Views:

Song Yu has no film and television works in progress, so the recording location for the second phase of "Returning to the Garden" can only be chosen in the company.

This time I have to fly to Haibin City, and the time is two o'clock in the afternoon, so there is plenty of recording time in the morning.

Zhou Yanqing and Song Yu arrived at the company according to the usual time. When they walked to the front desk, Monica got up as usual and said good morning to Song Yu.

Song Yu suddenly stopped in his tracks. He took a serious look at Monica and asked, "Did you change your makeup?"

After eating a hot pot meal, Monica was no longer so afraid of Song Yu. She stroked the non-existent hair on her sideburns, and replied with some embarrassment: "Isn't someone from the program team coming to record the program today, in case I want to leave the country?" If you say it, you can't lose face for the company, I got up at 6 o'clock this morning to put on makeup. Mr. Song, do I look weird?"

Monica is already very beautiful, he usually wears light makeup, Zhou Yanqing once thought she was going to work without makeup. Today, her makeup is very delicate, her eyelashes are clearly defined, and the light blush on her cheeks makes her light and familiar with a touch of charm.

Zhou Yanqing stood behind Song Yu and snickered, Monica wrinkled his nose at him, warning him not to laugh again.

Song Yu's eyebrows moved slightly, and there was a slight smile on his face: "It's not surprising, she is very beautiful, even more beautiful than the actresses in the crew." After a pause, he said, "You can choose a set of cosmetics yourself, and I will give it to you." You reimburse."

Being praised as beautiful was already exciting, but suddenly she got another set of cosmetics, Monica was so happy that she was dizzy, and even suspected that she was dreaming.

She pulled Zhou Yanqing's wrist excitedly, and asked him: "Xiao Zhou, I'm not dreaming, am I! Teacher Song wants to give me cosmetics. How can there be such a good boss in the world?"

Zhou Yan smiled lightly and looked at Monica. He opened his mouth but before he could speak, a voice interrupted him.

"How could Teacher Song lie to you?"

Song Yu and Zhou Yanqing turned their heads together, and Meng Shiping was sitting on the sofa in the reception area with a coffee cup in his hand, and it looked like he had been sitting there for a long time.

He put down his cup and walked to Song Yu's side, and said to Monica, "Ms. Song will buy you cosmetics, then I'll buy you a mask. I worked hard last night."

"Thank you, Brother Meng." Monica's smile froze on her face, and the atmosphere became a little subtle, but she immediately reflected on it, thanked Meng Shiping tenderly, and said that working overtime should be done.

Meng Shiping nodded, and turned to Song Yu and said, "The people from the program team will arrive in half an hour. My project proposal has been revised. Let's go to the office to chat."

The slight smile on Song Yu's face had long since disappeared, and he replied: "Okay."

Zhou Yanqing walked at the end, Monica stuck out her tongue at him, he smiled helplessly and followed quickly, the expression on his face darkened immediately when he turned around.

Even Monica noticed Meng Shiping's uncomfortable behavior just now, so how could he not notice it.

Song Yu didn't care. He entered the office and asked casually, "Why aren't you waiting for me in the office?"

Meng Shiping shrugged: "Didn't you say last time that you don't like people entering your office casually?"

Song Yu smiled: "I mean your own office."

Meng Shiping choked for a moment, but his expression didn't change. Instead, he raised his brows and joked, "I don't have enough light in my office."

The seemingly casual conversation was actually full of undercurrents. Song Yu tested Meng Shiping's bottom line again and again. He wanted to know when Meng Shiping's pious mask would really be revealed. To his surprise, Meng Shiping was unusually calm today.

"Did you bring the plan?" Song Yu sat down, "Tell me about it."

The two chatted in the office for less than 20 minutes, and Zhou Yanqing knocked on the door to inform the program crew that they were coming, so Meng Shiping had to put away the project and cooperate with the program crew to shoot.

A total of five people came to the program team this time, two cameramen, a lighting engineer, a makeup artist, and a young assistant director of the director's team.

Monica's makeup didn't turn white. Not only did she appear in the mirror, but it also had a lot of makeup. The makeup artist of the program group even touched up her makeup halfway through.

A small clip from the company is at most two or three minutes in the 90-minute feature film broadcast. Theoretically, it can be shot in an hour at most, but it has been nearly two hours, and two camera teachers are still carrying it. The camera is looking for an angle.

Zhou Yanqing felt a little strange. The recording that required Song Yu’s participation had ended long ago. The two camera teachers were still looking for various angles to shoot the interior of the company. They even went around the tea room. The empty shot material during editing is too saturated.

Of course Song Yu also noticed it, not only did he notice it, but he also knew why, because Meng Shiping was sitting in his office at the moment talking freely.

"I knew that the beginning of this issue was going to be when the company was recording, so I contacted the director immediately. Today they will shoot more material in the company, and they will give an extra two minutes to the feature film, giving our company a 360-degree view without dead ends. Show, take this opportunity to promote our company, and the director also promised to edit the content shot at our place into sideshows and put it on the Internet."

Song Yu cooperated with the question: "Promote the company, why do you want to promote the company?"

"Of course it is for the future development of the company." Meng Shiping held a marker pen in his hand and gestured, "This is the company's promotional video after the program is broadcast. There it is. I have a long-term plan. Recently, a video website and a TV station have cooperated to launch a program called 'The Manager and Me'... "

On the surface, Song Yu listened to the grand blueprint that Meng Shiping spoke with great interest, but the lack of interest in his heart did not cause any waves. It was not his original wish to step into this circle at the beginning. He seemed to be pushed forward by an invisible force. Later, he found some fun in this circle and was happy to achieve the life of the character. He doesn't have the ideological awareness to become an artist, nor does he have the grand goal of running a company and doing a career. For him, being an actor is just a profession to make a living. He just wants to do his job well with dedication.

Meng Shiping's cheeks were rosy, and he was already in a state of excitement.

Song Yu felt a little anxious when he heard it, and even felt a dull pain in his head. He checked the time and interrupted Meng Shiping at the right time: "It's almost time to leave for the airport, right?"

"Okay, then let's talk on the way." Meng Shiping put away the proposal on the table without doubting him.

On the way to the airport and on the plane, Song Yu didn't give Meng Shiping a chance to speak. He did feel some headaches, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep all the way.

Zhou Yanqing noticed it while waiting for the plane, and asked Song Yu softly if he felt uncomfortable, but Song Yu dismissed it perfunctorily, as long as he wanted to act, he could hide it from everyone.

Two and a half hours later, the plane landed at the airport across the blue sky of Haibin City.
