Chinese Entertainment Intelligence King

Chapter 21 Qin Lan: How do you know today is my birthday?
Inside and outside the city, there was a cry of killing

Yu Wenzhi, wearing a dragon robe, looked at Yu Wenchengdu with a panicked expression: "Chengdu, the rebels are coming. What should we do?"

Yuwen Chengdu's face was also a little panicked. Seeing the shouting and killing getting louder and louder, he pulled two guards over fiercely and said, "I'll go stop them. You guys protect my father and leave first."

After saying that, Yuwen Chengdu strode out, and Yuwen Huaji opened his hands and shouted a few words.

"Chengdu, Chengdu!"

...

"Okay, pass."

Director Hu Mingkai called out, and Yan Li, who had just left the hall, came over: "Thank you, Director Hu."

Hu Mingkai smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "No big deal, good acting."

The scene just now was actually not in the original script.

However, because Yan Li had previously created the character, the actor Yang Shulin who played Yu Wenzhi intentionally added some details about the father-son relationship, so that Yu Wen and his son can be described as a loving father and a filial son in the play.

Under these circumstances, Yan Li and Yang Shulin persuaded the director to add a scene when Yuwen and his son left the stage.

Although it was just a scene, the fact that he was able to stand up and stop the enemy to protect his father at the critical moment of life and death at least elevated the character of Yuwen Chengdu a little bit.

And this change does not deviate from the characters in the script.

First of all, the efforts of Yan and Yang have already demonstrated that Yuwen and his son have a good relationship and clear motives.

Although Yuwen Chengdu is a bully who bullies the weak and fears the strong, and is lustful and cruel in the play, he has never been vague at some critical moments. He has also saved Yang Guang and Yuwen Huaji before, but he is just a villain and his brilliance is overshadowed by the protagonists.

Secondly, Yuwen Chengdu did not intend to fight to the death. From the lines and plot design, it can be seen that he just wanted to delay and then find a way to escape.

After all, even though Yuwen Chengdu's ability in the drama is far inferior to that in the original novel, he is still considered the best in the drama. If he wants to run away, ordinary people can't stop him.

However, Yuwen Chengdu was unlucky in the subsequent plot. He ran into Li Yuanba, who was looking for him to "duel", and was killed.

After chatting with Director Hu for a few words, Yan Li tactfully left when he saw that he was busy with business.

After filming Yan Li's scene today, he has nothing to do anymore. The next part will be about the various rebel kings fighting for the imperial seal.

Yan Li has another scene where he is beaten to death by Li Yuanba. It depends on the crew's location arrangement. It should be either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Once he is "beaten to death" by Li Yuanba, the filming of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" will be officially completed.

Back in the dressing room, Wang Xiu removed his makeup and asked as she worked, "When was the ticket?"

Yan Li was flipping through a magazine with great interest. Hearing this, he replied, "Maybe the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Wang Xiu looked lost and said in a resentful tone, "Now that you're gone, I don't even have anyone to talk to."

Yan Li got goosebumps and said angrily, "Stop bullshitting me. If you keep flirting with me, I'll beat up Big Liu from your photography team."

Wang Xiu was very surprised: "How did you know Da Liu liked me? I haven't told anyone... Is it that bitch Sasha?"

Yan Li smiled and said, "Give me a cooler hairstyle today, trim my eyebrows, and let me use your high-end cosmetics, and I'll tell you."

"cut."

Wang Xiu was dismissive, but after removing Yan Li's makeup, she still shaved and trimmed his eyebrows, took care of his skin, and finally carefully styled his hair.

Yan Li needs to wear a wig in costume dramas and keep his hair short.

Wang Xiu has good styling skills. His temples and back of the head are shaved flat, and his head is slightly layered.

Combined with Yan Li's angular face, his original masculinity and heroism are enhanced with a bit of ruggedness and wildness, making him full of masculinity.

“Perfect!”

Wang Xiu looked at Yan Li in the mirror and was very satisfied. "If you can't make it one day, give me a call. I used to do some private work and I know a few wealthy women and aunts. They like tough guys like you."

Yan Li forced a smile: "Thank you."

After changing into his costume, Yan Li was about to go out when Wang Xiu stopped him and said, "You haven't told me how you knew that yet."

Yan Li pointed to his temple: "Intuition."

Wang Xiu was furious: "I will introduce you to someone who is ugly and old when the time comes."

----

After returning to the small hotel from the dressing room, Yan Li changed into the clothes he had just bought in Hengdian, tidied himself up neatly, and walked downstairs.

First, I took a walk around Hengdian Pedestrian Street, and then booked a table at the restaurant where Yan Li suspected that the drug was placed.

Although Yan Li feels that the "safety" of the dishes in this restaurant is questionable, the environment and taste are both acceptable and quite suitable for gatherings and entertaining guests.

Afterwards, Yan Li came to the hotel where Qin Lan was staying and called her.

"Are you in the hotel?"

Qin Lan's somewhat surprised voice came from the phone: "Yes, what's the matter?"

"Come down, I'll treat you to dinner." "Ah... OK... Wait for me five, no, ten minutes."

Yan Li looked at the time, found a place to sit down very experiencedly, lit a cigarette and waited slowly.

If a woman says ten minutes, you would be naive to think that you only have to wait ten minutes.

Sure enough, nearly half an hour later, Qin Lan, wearing a white collar and black slim skirt, hurried down with her bag.

"You've been waiting for a long time. Something urgent happened."

Yan Li glanced at Qin Lan's hair, which had not yet been completely dried, and her face, which was still fully made up. Smartly, he didn't ask what was wrong, but spoke directly.

"Let's go, the seats are all reserved."

Yan Li took care of Qin Lan who was wearing a skirt and slowed down his walking pace. Qin Lan, wearing half-heeled sandals, asked him with interest.

"Why did you think of treating me to a meal today? And you're dressed so handsomely."

Yan Li explained, "You complained that I didn't invite you to the farewell dinner, so I'm making it up to you."

"That's why."

Qin Lan, who had been looking happy, looked a little disappointed when she heard this.

Yan Li saw it but didn't say much. When he arrived at the restaurant and got his reserved table, he nodded at the birthday cake on the table that he had just bought on the pedestrian street and smiled.

"By the way, let me help you celebrate your birthday."

Qin Lan, who was standing next to him and saw the birthday cake, was so excited that she covered her mouth with her hands, her beautiful eyes slightly watery. After a moment, she hit Yan Li coquettishly and said angrily.

"Hate it, you think it's fun to fool me, right?"

Yan Li smiled brightly: "To praise, first suppress. This way the surprise will be greater."

Qin Lan rolled her eyes at him, then looked at the cake in front of her with great interest, her big eyes full of smiles, and she seemed to like it very much, but soon she couldn't help but sigh.

"I don't have a camera, otherwise I would have taken a picture."

"Do you know what foresight is?"

Yan Li snapped his fingers, then walked to the counter and took the Sony digital camera that had been left there by the proprietress.

Qin Lan was surprised and happy. She took the camera and asked, "Where did you get it?"

"After begging for a long time and a few packs of Yuxi, the still photographer agreed to lend it to me for one night."

Yan Li explained where it came from, and then warned, "Be careful when you use it. This thing is quite expensive. If it gets dropped or bumped into and breaks, I'll have wasted more than a month's work."

"Do not worry."

Qin Lan replied, then happily pulled Yan Li to take a photo.

First she took a photo with the cake, then took a photo of herself blowing out the candles and making a wish, then she asked the boss to take a photo of her and Yan Li, and so on. She took at least dozens of photos before she stopped.

Putting the camera away, Yan Li asked the boss to take his order while he said, "Wait until I get back to figure out whether I should develop the photos and mail them to you, or send them to your email."

"Uh-huh."

Qin Lan was in a good mood after taking the photos. She ate the cake that Yan Li cut for her, staring at Yan Li with her beautiful eyes without moving, and her voice was softer and sweeter than ever.

"How do you know today is my birthday?"

Not many people on the set of "My Fair Princess 3" knew about her birthday, and they didn't understand how Yan Li knew it.

Yan Li was very calm: "You told me yourself."

"When did I say that?"

"The first time we had dinner here, and we talked about age, you said you were born on July 1979, 7, so I just remembered it."

"is it?"

Qin Lan was a little dazed. They had indeed talked about age, but she didn't seem to mention her specific birthday. Well, maybe she forgot.

No matter what, Yan Li remembered what she just said, and put it into action, carefully preparing to accompany her on her birthday. Qin Lan felt sweet in her heart.

Seeing that Qin Lan believed it, Yan Li silently ate a piece of cake.

Qin Lan didn't tell him her birthday at the time, and he actually forgot it. He only remembered that she was born in 79.

As for why they knew Qin Lan’s birthday, it was of course thanks to the intelligence system.

[Intelligence System X: Today, July 7th, is Qin Lan's 17rd birthday... Now she's filming a movie away from home, and no one knows about her birthday. Qin Lan feels extremely lonely and desperately wants someone to celebrate with her...]

As a friend, Yan Li can’t just turn a blind eye to this wish…
