Chapter 222 - 222 Master Pei, the Guest Star
222 Master Pei, the Guest Star
Su Ji’s eyes lit up. “Tell me!”
Si Jingchuan was only teasing her, but she took it seriously.
“Boss…that place is…different. Why don’t you take him somewhere else?”
Su Ji just wanted to give Pei Huai a birthday that he would never forget.
Of course, the more special it was, the better!
The more he said this, the more Su Ji wanted to know. “Why are you hesitating? Just tell me, how different is it?”
Cold sweat seeped out of Si Jingchuan’s forehead. “Actually…it’s a theater.”
“What’s so special about a theater?” Su Ji was a little disappointed.
Si Jingchuan replied, “the theater isn’t special, but the performance is.”
Su Ji asked again, “is it exciting? ”
Si Jingchuan really didn’t know how to describe it. “It’s not something I’d not forget.”
Su Ji slapped her thigh. “That’s the one!”
On the night of his birthday, she would bring him to watch an unforgettable performance.
Si Jingchuan panicked. “No, no. You can’t go there.”
“You must have gone. If you have gone, why can’t I?””
Si Jingchuan was silent for two seconds. “Actually, I didn’t go. It’s my friend who went…”
Su Ji sighed, not understanding. “Just send me the address.”
“Um…”
“You dare to defy the boss?” Su Ji asked.
“…”

The scenes that would be filmed in Country T were Su Ji’s specialty.
The production team had contacted a few local actors to partic.i.p.ate in the scenes.
At one end of the long conference table, the CEO, Gu Shen, was in a suit. He had brought Bai Yueguang and Shen Qianqian along for the meeting.
Perhaps there was some misunderstanding with the local agencies, but when everyone arrived at the scene and the actors sat down at the negotiation table, they realized that the local actors looked like gangsters!
All of them were in black suits, chewing betel nuts and smoking cigars, and the scars on their faces were real!
Han Junlei: “…”
Huang Huayu: “…”
Zhou Xuefang was so scared that her legs went soft.
She hid behind Si Jingchuan while Si Jingchuan hid behind Su Ji.
Tang Yimo, Ms. Feng, and the rest of the people who were watching were not doing any better.
Only Su Ji’s expression remained calm, but she also felt that the actors in front of her were odd.
Huang Huayu immediately called the agency.
However, they replied confidently, “Director Huang, I looked for the actors according to the character profile you mentioned. Didn’t you say that the client’s father works in a shady industry? Look at the scar on his eye, doesn’t he fit the profile?”
“Like my a.s.s!” Huang Huayu was anxious and immediately brought up the National quintessence.
In the movie, Gu Shen and the others were indeed here to negotiate with a boss who worked in a shady industry.
However, this character, Nicha Sonpashan, had already cleared his name.
It was just filming, so of course he had to add some thrilling elements.
It would also help develop the relationship plot between Gu Shen, Bai Yueguang and Shen Qianqian.
However, the scene now looked like they were dealing with the mafia!
The actors in front of him looked like they were going to pull out their knives and stab them at any time!
Especially the actor who was going to play the role of the boss, Nicha Sonpashan. He was just a hooligan at best, and did not have the aura of a boss at all!
They wanted an actor who looked like a cold-hearted and ruthless CEO, not a gangster!
Han Junlei asked them to spit out the betel nuts and put out their cigars. He had already practiced with them for a few minutes, but something was still not right.
Those who played the subordinates could pa.s.s.
He looked at the time in frustration and said to Huang Huayu, “ask them to send someone who can play the role of the boss here!”
Huang Huayu nodded and quickly conveyed Han Junlei’s message on the phone.
However, they replied, “the new actor will arrive in the afternoon at the earliest. Is that okay?”
“Of course not! Huang Huayu replied.
This time, they had limited time. A new episode of “The Billions Stars” had to be aired every weekend and it could not be delayed.
Not even an hour could be wasted, let alone half a day.
Everyone in the crew was quite anxious since this happened on the first day of filming.
“Then we don’t have any other solution…”
Huang Huayu slammed his phone on the table.
The crew instantly fell into a dead silence.
He had to find someone new immediately.
Zhou Xuefang said, “we’re in an office building right now. Why don’t we look for someone here?”
Han Junlei nodded.
He pointed at a few staff members and said, “go around the building and look for someone who is tall enough and has a strong aura.”
“Yes, boss.”
Si Jingchuan tried to be practical. “These people are probably very busy. Even if we find them, they won’t be able to help us.”
“Do you have a better idea? ” Han Junlei asked.
He was quite fierce. Si Jingchuan’s mouth twitched as he shrugged.
It seemed that this was the only way now.
Seeing that everyone was busy, Su Ji looked for a person’s contact on WeChat
She had studied the script before and knew what the director wanted.
[ “Are you busy? Where are you now?” ]
He might be busy, and if he was far away, he couldn’t help either.
As she was thinking about this, she received a reply two seconds later.
“No, miss me?”
“Look down.”
Pei Huai had planned to have lunch with her in the afternoon. He was afraid that she would not be able to rest for long due to her tight filming schedule, so he had been working in the open-air cafe below their office building.
How “coincidental”.
Su Ji glanced at the window.
[ “Do me a favor?” ]
Pei Huai agreed first, then asked, “sure, what favor?”
Su Ji’s fingers quickly tapped on the keyboard.
[ “We need a temporary actor, can you come up and make a guest appearance?” ]
