Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 267 Fan's Choice
Cheng Xi arranged for Reba and Li Xiaoran to come to the rescue.

At the same time, he ordered Li Wentao to send the Zuibai editing team to Thailand as soon as possible.

Cheng Xi prepares to shoot and edit at the same time!

The rest of the scenes have been almost finished, only Ah Xiang's scenes and some scattered parts need to be re-shot.

So there is no obstacle in editing.

But good things don’t go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.

Tang Yan moved her luggage at 7 o'clock, and at 8 o'clock the news that Tang Yan was suspected of quitting the crew was reported back to China.

Cheng Xi would never believe that there was no one behind this.

It seems that Huayi is preparing to make a show of force to scare the enemy and doesn't even bother to pretend.

China, Yanjing.

Fan Binbin and her studio staff are currently negotiating an endorsement cooperation with a jewelry brand.

“I have always felt that Binbin’s image is the best match for our brand.”

"Mr. Zhang, you're welcome. Binbin has always liked your brand. It has a great tone."

Fan Binbin listened to the two sides bragging about their daily business and smiled his standard smile.

They were about to enter the negotiation phase, and of course the agent Mu Guang would be the secular person.

Celebrities have to create their own personalities.

At this time, assistant Xiao Liu came to Fan Binbin and whispered something in his ear.

Judging from his expression, he seems to be in a hurry.

When Fan Binbin heard this, his face froze and he looked at his agent Mu Guang beside him.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, I have to go to the bathroom."

After saying that, he deliberately touched Mu Guang with his hand.

After years of working together, the two of them certainly knew what Fan Binbin meant.

So Mu Guang exchanged a few pleasantries and found an excuse to leave temporarily.

Let the people in the studio chat with Mr. Zhang and his team first.

"What's wrong, Binbin?"

"Look at the news, Tang Yan pretended to be sick and left Thailand."

Mu Guang suddenly remembered that they had discussed Cheng Xi and Hua Yi a few days ago.

The result of the discussion at that time was to wait and see, and the most stable option was for both sides not to take sides for the time being.

But seeing Fan Binbin's eyes at this moment, Mu Guang knew what she was thinking.

"Binbin, I know you have a good impression of Cheng Xi, and I also think he is a talented person."

"But Huayi is a veteran after all. If the two of them compete with each other in terms of foundation, Cheng Xi will lose."

After listening to this, Fan Binbin said:

"I know, but my career has already reached a plateau. Ever since I left Huayi and formed a studio with you, Huayi has never provided me with any top-tier resources."

"Choose Huayi, everything will remain the same, but how many years do actresses have? I'm already 33, I can't wait."

Mu Guang fell silent after hearing this.

Both of them are ambitious people, and their goal is to make Fan Binbin the number one female star, or even the number one celebrity, in China.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have hit it off so quickly and worked together so well for so long.

But Mu Guang understood that Fan Binbin had failed many times in her attempts to obtain film resources, which had made her prejudiced against cooperating with Huayi.

If you can't see a path to go up, then you are either moving forward or moving backward.

"So I'd rather take the risk and support Cheng Xi. At least I can still give it a try."

"But didn't you fail the audition before?"

"The situation is different now. If I go, it will be like helping someone in need, which is not easy in the entertainment industry. Besides, with Huayi doing this, many artists don't have the courage to stand on Cheng Xi's side. This is actually my opportunity."

"Even if he still doesn't choose me, at least I've expressed my attitude."

After listening to this, Mu Guang knew that Fan Binbin had actually made up his mind.

When he saw Fan Binbin's glowing and somewhat fierce eyes, he couldn't say the words of opposition he wanted to say.

Otherwise, their partnership will be in jeopardy.

"Brother Guang, can you support me again this time?"

After a moment of silence, Mu Guang looked at Fan Binbin's expression and suddenly asked:
"Binbin, you're not really in love with that boy, are you?"

Fan Binbin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said:

"At my age, I don't really care about whether I like him or not, but he is indeed quite attractive."

Hearing this, Mu Guang was silent for a moment, as if he had made a decision:
"Okay, Binbin, I trust your judgment! I'll book a ticket for you now!"

Fan Binbin got the answer he wanted in his heart, and his lips curled up stubbornly, with indescribable tenderness rippling through his face.

It was as if the woman who had just revealed her ambition was not her.

"Brother Guang, that's not necessary. I've already asked my assistant Xiao Liu to buy a plane ticket for the nearest flight."

Mu Guang was stunned when he heard this, and smiled helplessly at the woman. Fortunately, he didn't stop her.

And he is not a person who drags his feet.

Now that the decision has been made, I can't help but admire Fan Binbin's decisiveness.

This is the fighting spirit that a woman who wants to stand at the top should have.

Cheng Xi received many calls from home in the morning.

Basically, most people tried to reconcile, or advised themselves not to be impulsive, change the schedule and then apologize to Huayi.

Even Mr. Zeng is the same.

"Brother, it's okay to just change the schedule. After all, they're Huayi, and we don't have to go against money."

"Thanks, bro, but I won't back down this time."

Cheng Xi understood everyone's feelings. Most of them were people who were truly thinking about themselves and the new movie.

But this time Cheng Xi was determined to be stubborn.

Once you retreat, you retreat every time.

What's more, Huayi has been causing trouble several times and even taking action against the leading actor, which has touched Cheng Xi's sore spot.

If we say that lowering prices to grab business orders before was normal business competition.

But Tang Yan’s incident will make any actor who will work with Zuibaixi feel wary in the future.

This is destroying my job.

If you don't express your own opinion, you won't be able to stand up straight.

The most important thing now is that after Reba and Li Xiaoran arrive, we must quickly finalize the cast and start reshooting.

Meeting the schedule is the first priority.

Just as Cheng Xi was thinking about this and preparing to continue filming, another call came in on his phone, and it turned out to be from Fan Bingbing.

Are you here to be a lobbyist again?
But after it rang a few times, Cheng Xi gave Sister Binbin some face and chose to answer it.

"Child guide, did you miss me?"

Cheng Xi smiled and called me the kid's guide.

"I didn't think so. Why, you're here to mediate, too."

"Who said that, Director Cheng? I'm here specifically to discuss business."

"I'm in Thailand, and I can't negotiate a deal worth 100 million or 200 million."

"Bah, what are you thinking about all day long?"

"I'm just thinking about filming. Women will only slow down my directing process."

"That's great. Director Cheng, are you interested in directing a play for me?"

"Okay, then come to Bangkok, I'll even kill you."

"Then I'm really here!"

When Cheng Xi heard this, he thought he was just joking, but he didn't expect Binbin to agree directly.

Before Cheng Xi could figure out whether it was a joke or half serious.

I heard the sound of an airplane flight coming from the other end of the phone:
"Dear passengers, the flight from Beijing Capital International Airport to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport is about to take off. For your safety, please turn off all electronic devices or switch to airplane mode before takeoff."

“Good morning, ladies and gentlemen”

Damn, A Bing, are you serious?

"I'm about to hang up now, Director Cheng, remember to pick me up at the airport in 5 hours!"

"Hey"

Before Cheng Xi could finish speaking, he heard a dead tone on his phone.

Fan Binbin hung up the phone directly.

Then she sent a message on WeChat:
It was a plane ticket that showed a flight departing from Yanjing at 11 a.m. and arriving in Bangkok at 4 p.m.

Only then did Cheng Xi believe that it was not a prank and that Fan Binbin was really coming to Bangkok to discuss business with him.

At this point in time, even a fool would know that the discussion was about the heroine "A Xiang's" business.

It's impossible that I would come all the way here just to have a friendly fire with you.

We are not a couple in love.

Fan Binbin had to come for the audition before, and the results were indeed good.

It fits the role very well.

It was just that I had other hesitations at that time, so I didn't agree.

But this time.
Reba and Li Xiaoran will also come, so it’s a choice between three.

At Fan Binbin's speed, it would take at least 9 a.m. for the news to be received in China.

Still need to decide, book tickets, pick up luggage, etc.
Yes, this wave of "Binbin speed" made Cheng Xi very impressed.

She is indeed the woman who wants to “wear the crown”.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Xi handed over the filming work of the crew to Xin Yukun.

I rushed to Bangkok Airport alone with my translator.

Reba arrived at 2:30 and Fan Binbin arrived at 4 o'clock, so Cheng Xi simply picked them up together.

Li Xiaoran also arrived late at night.

Originally, Reba was walking in the crowd with a small trolley case and wearing a mask.

Until she saw Cheng Xi, she immediately trotted like a rabbit and threw herself into Cheng Xi's arms.

When Cheng Xi saw Reba, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Thanks for your hard work, cutie."

"It's not hard, hehe. I helped my brother get all the registration paperwork done."

Cheng Xi touched Reba's head with a slightly doting look.

"Yeah, we're already seniors now, time flies by."

"Brother, I don't want to graduate."

"Hahaha, then you can skip the final exam and repeat the year!"

"I don't want to repeat a grade. If I want to stay in school, I can take the postgraduate entrance exam!"

Aha?

Reba, you are going to take the postgraduate entrance examination. Cheng Xi really feels that he can hardly understand the women around him.

You didn't even say any rhymes, so why do you want to take the postgraduate entrance examination?

At 4 o'clock, Cheng Xi and Reba were chatting in the nanny car with the air conditioner on, waiting for about 40 minutes.

Fan Binbin finally landed.

Fan Binbin and Reba have met each other, but they are not very familiar with each other.

Now one of them is a veteran actress born in the 80s and a top star.

One is the emerging top star born in the 90s who relies on the Zuibai series and League of Legends endorsements.

The most important thing is that both of them appeared next to Cheng Xi to meet, and it was this kind of scene.

Reba is a little cutie in front of herself, but when she is outside, she is still very independent and can stand on her own.

Fan Binbin is a man with great ideas.

Cheng Xi seemed to feel the sparks flying between the two of them.

Reba: "Hello, Sister Binbin."

Fan Binbin: "Hello, Reba sister."

Then the two of them hugged each other sideways like sisters with deep affection.

Cheng Xi didn't say anything, just blinked and took the two of them into the nanny car.

Then the two of them started to argue with each other while talking and laughing.

Reba: "Sister Binbin, where is your luggage?"

Fan Binbin: “I didn’t bring it.”

Reba: "Then Sister Binbin can wear mine!"

Fan Binbin: "Will it be too small?"

Reba: "Yeah, Sister Binbin has a bigger frame."

Fan Binbin: "I'm definitely not as slim as Reba."

Cheng Xi: “.”
