Chapter 222: A Brief Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder, Daily Life in Hengdian

The first season of "Celebrating More Than Years" officially started filming in Hengdian on March 10, 2011, and the estimated filming time is 100 to 120 days.

Due to the large plot span, except for a few characters who have been online all the time, many actors joined the crew in batches.

For example, Tang Yan, who plays Haitang Duoduo, will not appear until the second half, so she is now filming "Love Wakes Up" by Croton Media, and the time to join the crew of "Celebrating More Than Years" is estimated to be in May.

Liu Shishi, who plays the chicken leg girl, has all her scenes in the first half and is also the first batch of actors to join the crew.

So don't look at Wei Yang's "left and right hugs" in the play, and the gimmick of reuniting "The Three Beauties of the Fairy Sword" is also very bluffing.

But in fact, Liu Shishi and Tang Yan have conflicting schedules and no rival scenes, and it is very likely that they will not meet in the crew of "Celebrating More Than Years".

The same is true for Da Mimi, who came to guest star. She and Tang Yan have rival scenes, but it is estimated that she will not meet Liu Shishi either.

This was also a deliberate arrangement by Boss Wei. Although he was sure that there would not be a Shura scene, it would be safer just in case.

Hengdian, Jiangnan Huayuan

Liu Shishi came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, looked at the layout of the room, and pushed Wei Yang who was flipping through the script on the sofa.

"When did you buy this house?"

"Before the New Year, I renovated it. Today is my second time here. There is a key in the shoe cabinet. I will take one when I go back. I will put things that are difficult to get in the hotel here in the future."

"That's great. Every time I come to Hengdian, I buy a lot of things, and I have no place to put them after the filming is finished. This time it's good, we have a base camp."

Liu Shishi is very happy. They are filming in Hengdian, often for several months. It is troublesome to live in a hotel. If there is a house nearby, it can save a lot of trouble.

This house was specially selected by Wei Yang. It is no more than 10 minutes away from Hengdian Film and Television City.

Even if the film and television city is too large, the travel time to most popular filming locations will not exceed one hour.

To put it bluntly, this is to build a more private "base" near Hengdian. In addition to normal functions such as storing items and resting, it can also be used for private meetings.

Wei Yang and Liu Shishi are no longer the same as before. One is the most popular top-tier actor in the mainland, and the other is also one of the most popular young actresses of the new generation.

Every move is watched by countless eyes from the crew, and there may even be paparazzi squatting.

At this time, it is difficult to sneak into each other's room like "Twinkle Twinkle Star".

Maybe someone will install a camera at the door and reveal a [luminous script].

So the wealthy Wei Yang directly bought a house nearby. He stayed in the hotel during normal filming, and went to this house to live in the world of two people when the task was not heavy.

In comparison, it is safer and quieter than a hotel with people coming and going...

"Don't read the script, just talk to me."

Liu Shishi was not afraid of the spring light of the bath towel being exposed, and got into Wei Yang's arms, and even said a few coquettish words.

She had been filming for "Startling by Each Step" before, and hadn't seen Wei Yang for a long time. When they met these days, she pestered Wei Yang very much.

"If I can't win the Best Actor Award, it's all because of you... you, the beauty who brings disaster."

Wei Yang scolded, but he put down the script honestly, and then hugged Liu Shishi.

Compared with the fragrant and delicate wife, the Best Actor Award is nothing...

The two rolled on the sofa for a while, and almost went to the bathroom to take a shower again. Liu Shishi struggled to get out, pulled the bath towel that was about to be stripped off, and hit him with a red face.

"Be good, don't move, chat with me."

Wei Yang touched the saliva on his face, feeling a little helpless. Who was the first to block his mouth to stop him from talking...

In fact, although the two didn't see each other before because of filming, they didn't say that they were constantly talking every day, but they would chat on the phone or video chat every now and then. It's not that they haven't seen each other for several months, and they have endless things to say. Liu Shishi just wanted to hug Wei Yang and get greasy.

So, Wei Yang rested his head on her thigh, playing with Liu Shishi's fingers while listening to his girlfriend's idle chat.

"…"Palace" became popular, and Lao Cai was furious. He scolded Mimi several times in private, and even complained that you were close to her, so he invited her to participate in "Joy of Life."

"I can understand."

Wei Yang nodded. After the person he promoted to tear his face with him, he hooked up with another enemy, and became more and more popular, and even involved in competing products. Who wouldn't be angry.

However, Wei Yang made a clear distinction. Da Mimi had a grudge against Tangren, which had nothing to do with him.

"Palace" and "Startling by Each Step" are competing products, but it is also hard to say that the former brought the popularity of Qing Dynasty wear, while the latter did not get the benefit.

Even the quarrels between the fans of the two dramas and the fans, which seemed to be fierce and contradictory, were also a kind of marketing and win-win diversion.

When it comes to Wei Yang's position, who is right and who is wrong is sometimes not so important. The key is the interests.

Not to mention that Da Mimi has never offended Wei Yang, and is even trying to make friends with him, even if the dead girl who had a verbal fight with him comes to Wei Yang now and gives up enough benefits, Boss Wei may also accept this "good senior brother" with a smile.

Don't think Wei Yang is low-minded. If Da Mimi admits defeat now and comes to film a movie for Tangren, do you think Lao Cai will still regard her as an enemy?

Except for principled issues, most people will not have a hard time with money...

Da Mimi is willing to come and support "Celebrating Yu Nian". Wei Yang will not ignore his own interests for Lao Cai's ideas.

Cai Yinong also knows this. After "Hello, Old Times" and "Eastern Palace", Blue Whale has become very popular.

At the beginning of this year, several projects were launched in succession, including a large-scale production like "Celebrating More Than Years" with an investment of hundreds of millions.

In the eyes of many people, Blue Whale's current momentum has surpassed Tangren, not to mention that Boss Wei still has hundreds of millions of funds from Emerald Shrimp.

It is hard to say who is better between Tangren and Blue Whale, but Wei Yang's voice and influence in the circle are far ahead of her.

Cai Yinong has already felt this change, so when Da Mimi participated in "Celebrating More Than Years", she did not even call Wei Yang to stop him, but could only complain to Liu Shishi a few times, expressing dissatisfaction in a roundabout way.

Liu Shishi is not very sensitive to this aspect, Wei Yang sees it very clearly, and he will not care.

Perhaps in a few years, whoever Wei Yang wants to use, Lao Cai will not even dare to complain to him in a roundabout way.

"After "Startling by Each Step", what drama did you guys at Tangren arrange for you?"

"I don't know."

Liu Shishi shook her head: "After I took "Joy of Life", the company didn't tell me about the subsequent arrangements, and I didn't really want to take it. I've been filming for so long, and I want to take a break."

She is the kind of person who "films one drama a year, one day a month", but popular artists often can't control their own schedules, after all, the company also needs to make money.

And Liu Shishi has Wei Yang as a backer, and has a certain degree of autonomy, so she doesn't have to be exploited too much by Tangren.

Wei Yang originally wanted to help her analyze what drama to take next, but he gave up the idea after hearing this.

Yes, in the short term, there are two dramas, "Startling by Each Step" and "Joy of Life", so there is no need to rush to film, and it's better to take a break.

She worked so hard to film so many dramas, but didn't make much money, and she had to give a part to Tangren, what's the point.

Boss Wei is a very upright person. His employees are crazy about making big promises to boost their morale. But when he is with Liu Shishi, he firmly criticizes and boycotts unscrupulous capitalists like Cai Yinong.

"If you want to take a break, take a break. At most, I can help you contact a few endorsements, and then Old Cai will have nothing to say. Let's see if we finish the movie in the second half of the year. If I have time, let's go abroad to have some fun."

"Really?"

Liu Shishi was a little surprised. She is not just a homegirl. She not only likes to stay at home, but also likes to travel.

An important source of evidence for the "Shi Mi" sisterhood that is sought after by many people is that after the hit of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", Tangren funded and took its own artists to Egypt for a trip. At that time, they also took Da Mimi, who was on her honeymoon, with the intention of winning her over.

At that time, Liu Shishi and Da Mimi had a lot of fun in Egypt, behaved intimately, and took a lot of photos and posted them on blogs, which attracted fans of both sides to celebrate, and the media also praised the "deep friendship between besties".

But what many people don't know is that Tangren also invited Wei Yang at that time, but Wei Yang didn't go because he was too busy.

Liu Shishi has always felt deeply sorry for this.

After all, after becoming famous, they have fewer opportunities to travel freely, not to mention going out with Wei Yang. This is a good opportunity to make up for it.

"Then let's go to Europe. Don't you like watching football? After watching the football, let's go skiing and then see the northern lights. No, no, we should go to Verona, Italy first, where "Juliet and Romeo" is..."

It can be seen that Liu Shishi is really looking forward to traveling with Wei Yang. It is estimated that she has had similar ideas before, so she plans very well.

Wei Yang didn't take it too seriously at first, but seeing that she was thinking so seriously, he began to really calculate the schedule in the second half of the year, and he had to make up a week at least.

Well, there is also Xiao Zhao. This year is not enough. Let's see if there is time to take him abroad to play next year.

In the matter of balancing water, Boss Wei still tries to pursue fairness...

...

The next day, Wei Yang returned to the crew of "Celebrating Yu Nian" first. Liu Shishi had no play that day, and hurried back from the "activity site" the day after tomorrow.

The crew also saw it, but they were too bored to expose the matter. If it was found out, Boss Wei would kill them.

It was just a pity for Rouba. She thought that she would have a lot of rival scenes with Wei Yang in "Joy of Life" this time, and she could improve her favorability with Wei Yang by getting along with him in daily life.

If the progress was smooth, she could be bolder and even get ahead of Na Zha.

But she didn't expect that Liu Shishi, the main wife, had a similar schedule and joined the crew at the same time.

In "Eastern Palace", no matter how bold Na Zha was, she had to use her as a shield to get close to Wei Yang, and the two had roughly equal opportunities to show their faces.

However, in "Joy of Life", Liu Shishi ate alone, although she didn't show too close.

But as long as she and Wei Yang had scenes at the same time, she was always with Wei Yang during breaks, and even often stayed in the same lounge. Other actresses could only talk to them at most, and there was no chance to be alone with Wei Yang.

Rouba stayed in the crew of "Joy of Life" for a week, and the number of times she talked to Wei Yang alone could be counted on one hand.

Rouba even missed Naza inexplicably. At least the two of them were together, one charging forward while the other making plans. It was better than her fighting alone now...
