Chapter 221: Being a Cowardly Lizard
Meetings, script discussions, readings.
The "Heart Flower Road" project is officially launched~
What Lao Zhou and Xiao Wu didn't expect was that they originally thought it might be very difficult to get Bai Youlou to the crew to be the leading actor.

After all, Bai Youlou's recent look of not wanting to work and only wanting to slack off almost made them all lazy as well.

As a result, he proposed it cautiously, and before he could come up with any follow-up move, Bai Youlou actually agreed out of the blue.

Of course, he also put forward his own conditions.

Just act, don't worry about anything else, just treat him as an actor hired from outside.

How could there be anything I couldn't agree to?
Let alone the conditions, even if Bai Youlou asked Lao Zhou and Xiao Wu to clean their butts and "sleep with him" tonight, he estimated that these two guys would grit their teeth and agree.

After all, there has been great progress in the field of shamelessness.

Old Zhou felt quite embarrassed, as he thought that Brother Lou and Teacher Zhang were in a passionate relationship recently, and that what he and Xiao Wu were doing felt like they were "breaking them up."

For at least two months, Bai Youlou had no time to waste in the company.

Zhang Xiaorong also has to build momentum for this year's Golden Melody Awards, so she has a lot of work to do.

I guess there is little chance of meeting.

Bai Youlou: Yes, yes, that’s it! I want this!

Ahem, he agreed to take part in "Lost in Thailand" without hesitation, purely to support this kid Wu Mugun.

It’s definitely not because I’m a little scared of Zhang Xiaorong.

However, the opponent's "mutual destruction" fighting style was indeed extremely domineering. Even a tough guy like Bai Youlou had to admit that humans have limits!
But Bai Youlou had no choice but to be a human being.

So we can only "avoid war" temporarily.

Became a cowardly lizard.

Let her waist relax a little, and let Zhang Xiaorong feel more relaxed. They said they would die together. If they met often, Bai Youlou dared to guarantee that it wouldn't be long before Zhang Xiaorong would have to walk with her legs apart.

But of course I can't tell anyone else about this~
Bai Youlou was still holding the banner to support Xiaowu, with the demeanor of a leader who said, "If I don't protect you, who will?"

Xiao Wu was so moved that he shed tears. He said he would devote himself to the cause until his death and would not let Bai Youlou lose money no matter what.

It is impossible to lose money.

No matter whether it is the previous "Old Boy" or the current "Lost in Thailand", if you want to save money, you can't spend too much money.

Although not as extreme as "Old Boy", "Lost in Thailand" also has a very high proportion of actors' pay.

The leading actors are all well-known in the circle.

If Bai Youlou didn't get involved, Xiao Wu might not be able to completely cover it up.

He doesn't have Bai Youlou's "crazy" skills.

But whenever Bai went upstairs and sat there, he could bring great help to Xiao Wu.

When he's there, no one dares to cause trouble!

Well. Just treat the above sentence as Bai Youlou’s fart!

He himself thinks so.

I feel that I am doing pretty well in the circle now, at least I can have the ability of the Face Fruit.

But in fact, some people are still unwilling to give him face.

such as:

Long Ziqiang's wife.

The film hasn’t started shooting yet, and this woman came back from her trip somewhere and came to the company to “cause trouble”.

The reason for causing trouble was simple: she felt that Long Ziqiang's pay was too low.

The timing of coming is perfect, it's when Long Ziqiang is not around~
I guess she knew what was going on and knew that Long Ziqiang couldn't let her do this.

The only good news is that the other party did not act like a shrew, but instead just played the victim with Bai Youlou.

She seemed to have done her homework, her arguments were clear, her reasons were strong, and her request was simple: more money!

Faced with the family members' "complaints", Bai Youlou was a little confused.

To be honest, I was a little intimidated at first.

I really thought that Lao Zhou was a coward and deliberately lowered Long Ziqiang's pay.

If that's the case, it's understandable that people come here to cause trouble.

So we called this guy over to question him.

As a result, Lao Zhou was even more confused than Bai Youlou, "Ah? Ah Qiang's salary is the market price. When did I ever suppress his salary?"

Bai Youlou: ???

Lao Zhou:? ? ?
In this case~
Bai Youlou didn't care. If Long Ziqiang really suffered some injustice or was secretly suppressed by Lao Zhou, it would be fine for him to help out or even join in a gang fight with Lao Zhou.

But if this doesn't happen, it's none of Bai Youlou's business.

Just leave this matter to Lao Zhou to solve. He is too lazy to get involved and just lets it go.

After he finished playing several games, which was almost an hour later, Lao Zhou finally came to find him.

The strange thing is that there was a Nanako following him.

Oh, not weird.

In recent days, Nanazi has often come here, under the pretext of discussing roles and scripts, and learning from Bai Youlou. This reason is so convincing that her agent cannot say no.

Bai Youlou ignored Nana, who was already quite familiar with him, and motioned for her to make her own tea. Then he looked at Lao Zhou and asked, "What are the rules?"

Lao Zhou took a sip of the water and shook his head helplessly, "Brother Lou, I've said before that I'm not good at dealing with women. This job should be done by you. If you smile at her more, you might be able to get Ah Qiang to reduce his pay."

Baiyoulou: 6
You want him to seduce Aqiang’s wife, right?

"If you have to fart, let it out. What did you say?"

"What can I say? Of course I rejected her, but I didn't say it too bluntly. I just said that I could increase her salary and asked Aqiang and his agent to come over to discuss how much it would increase."

"Then she left?"

"Otherwise, I guess she did it without telling Aqiang. But she didn't learn all those tricks from somewhere. She must have done her homework."

"."

After listening to their discussion for a while, Nanako finally spoke up and summarized, "Why did Ziqiang marry a green tea bitch?"

Bai Youlou, Lao Zhou: ???
Do you want to listen to what you are saying? !
Now you are the most famous green tea in the entire domestic entertainment industry, Nanazi!
Nanako seemed to be able to read people's minds and immediately added, "Hehe, green tea knows green tea best~ Of course I have a say."

"You are good at making fun of yourself~"

When a little green tea girl admits that she is a green tea girl, is she still a green tea girl? Is she playing hard to get?

The knowledge about green tea is extensive and profound, and Bai Youlou said that he still has a lot to learn.

However, Nanazi's words helped Lao Zhou quickly find an idea.

"There's something wrong with this. It's not like I haven't dealt with this 'sister-in-law' before. She doesn't have the ability to do this on her own. There must be someone behind the scenes giving her advice!"

"It's not true that Brother Ziqiang wants to increase his pay, but he is too embarrassed to say it."

Nanako shut up halfway through her words.

She shouldn't have said this. It sounded like she was trying to sow discord between Long Ziqiang and these two people.

But she felt that her suspicion was still reasonable, because Long Ziqiang was the "beneficiary".

Those detective novels all use this idea to solve cases~
Nanako was a little panicked at first, thinking that if she spoke like that, would she offend others again?

Because of this bad habit of speaking too quickly, she suffered a lot. However, after a moment of panic, she was not so panicked anymore.

She felt that Bai Youlou would not think so badly of her. Well, if Bai Youlou was so bad, he probably would not care about this matter.

Nanako felt that she was thinking completely from Bai Youlou's perspective. With his brain, he would definitely be able to figure it out and would not blame her.

After a brainstorming session, Nanako realized that these two people ignored her at all.

They didn't even say anything, but after exchanging glances, Lao Zhou looked like he "understood".

"Brother Lou, can you check?"

"Just check it out. It's fine if they're dealing with outsiders and engaging in intrigue, but there are people in our own company who are doing this. They're courting death!"

"I'll take care of it!"

What?

Nanako always thought she was quite smart, but she didn't understand what these two people meant.

After Lao Zhou left, she looked at Bai Youlou eagerly, as if wanting to get answers to her questions.

"Why are you staring at me with wide eyes?"

"Brother Xiaobai, I'm curious!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you want to fight, right?" Bai Youlou pointed at Nanako's hand that was grabbing his arm, "If you do that again, I'm going to fight back, okay?"

After receiving this signal, Nanako moved half of her body forward without hesitation.

Come on, let’s do it!
Whatever you want~
Bai Youlou was not polite and put his hand on her thigh, wondering, what brand of stockings are they? So slippery?

I’ll buy a few for Teacher Zhang later!
"This matter has nothing to do with you. It's just that someone in my company might be doing something small."

"Oh~ Anyway, if you need to identify a bitch, just come to me. I can tell a green tea bitch by the looks of it!"

"You are quite proud of yourself. Don't play your role as a green tea. Your role is the true love route."

"If you, Xiaobai, were to play my true love, I would definitely be able to act it out!"

This "shameless" spirit is quite endearing!

However, how Nanazi acts has nothing to do with Bai Youlou. He is not the director this time and he doesn't know how to do the director's job.
-
In mid-March, "Lost in Thailand" officially started filming.

The launch conference was very lively, but Bai Youlou did not attend. However, the news that he was one of the leading actors had already been released, so the film naturally quickly attracted a lot of attention.

The reason why he didn't go out of character was that he wanted to leave some shots for the genuine director Takeki Gun.

If he went, that group of unscrupulous media would dare to write that this movie is "the work of Bai Youlou".

After all, Wu Mugun is not very famous, with only one micro-film "Old Boy" to his name.

However, although Bai Youlou did not appear at the launch conference, he did not escape various harassment.

Mainly Liu Manli's.

Called to inquire about the post-production progress of "Dying to Survive".

After talking a lot, she asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you ask me to come to you to start your new movie? Has our relationship changed?"

puff!
Bai Youlou, who was drinking tea, was really amused by her.

What a change in relationship.

Those who don't know would think that they had some kind of passionate love affair~
"My feelings towards Mr. Liu are clear as day and night, and they won't change at all. This movie is mainly for Xiao Wu to practice. I am just an actor and don't plan to get involved, so the investment is not high, and I don't plan to attract any investment. I will be responsible for my own profits and losses."

Huh, that sounds nice.

You pass~
Liu Manli didn't expect Bai Youlou to give her any explanation. The relationship between them was quite complicated.

At her age, it is indeed difficult to have a sweet and pure love experience.

I can't even have the mentality to be filled with love, and Bai Youlou is almost the same.

But this does not mean that the relationship between the two is fragile.

They are all mature adults.

Maintaining a relationship does not just rely on that little bit of excitement or so-called love.

There is a stronger bond between them.

That's the benefit!
Human relationships, mutual understanding, feelings, interests and other elements are intertwined together, which may be another kind of unbreakable bond.

It is even more solid than that simple love.

Many so-called pure loves cannot withstand any setbacks and will be blown away by the wind.

Liu Manli felt that her relationship with Bai Youlou would be very stable, at least until she got old and ugly or turned into a shrew.

She didn't rely on him and didn't ask him to love her or marry her.

He didn't force her, letting her do whatever she wanted. If one day she couldn't help herself and suddenly got married, Bai Youlou would still generously give her a red envelope and arrange a banquet for her.

What a great relationship!
Liu Manli likes it very much!
"Oh, take good care of Nana. Don't let anyone bully her."

"She's pretty strong, she won't be bullied."

Liu Manli chuckled, "Nana is actually quite sensitive and cares a lot about what others think. Didn't expect that, did you?"

Bai Youlou: ???

really?
I do not believe!
The first thing Nanazi did after joining the crew was to ask which room Bai Youlou was staying in the hotel, as she wanted to live next door.

Is this what you call caring about what others think?
She was afraid that others didn't know that she had feelings for Bai Youlou~
Sensitive, really quite sensitive
The little ears turn red when touched.

While Bai Youlou was stunned over the phone, Liu Manli immediately realized that something was wrong.

She is so smart!

However, in a hurry, the words and expressions were a little vulgar.

"You're not having an affair with Nana, are you?"

"Ahem, ahem, what are you talking about?"

"I'm warning you, don't touch my people!"

Facing the suddenly domineering Liu Manli, Bai Youlou was not afraid, but was mainly curious, "Why are you suddenly defending Nanako now? Didn't you only care about Jiang Yuanchu before~"

Liu Manli rolled her eyes and said, "Don't be ridiculous. She is my artist. How could I not care about her?"

"for example?"

"For example, if I wasn't there, with her ability to attract hatred and her natural ability to seduce people, she would have participated in countless drinking parties and been pursued or even seduced by countless old men. It's her blessing to have a boss like me. If you don't believe me, go ask her~"

Liu Manli's words were very confident, and Bai Youlou had to believe it.

Guigui, is this the benefit of having a great female boss?

Indeed, although Nanako is known as a green tea girl, many people call her a beaker.

But in fact, she doesn't have any confirmed negative information.

For example, hanging out with a certain big boss, going in and out of hotels with so-and-so, etc.

Most of them are from shows or film and television materials. Her tone of voice and eyes make it easy for people to think that she is seducing.

As for whether it is true or not?
As the saying goes, practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

Bai Youlou will know if you check it out~
If you are not a director, you will have plenty of time.
