151: A gathering of the film crew!

“Hello, Yin Zheng, my name is Wang Zhi.” Wang Zhi, with her short hair, smiled, looked at Yin Zheng beside her, and greeted him with a smile.

“Hello.” Hearing this, Yin Zheng returned a smile.

Ai Lun saw the two chatting, came closer, and said with a smile, “Hello everyone, my name is Ai Lun.”

The main reason was that Tian Yu and Li Liqun clearly knew each other, and Shen Teng and Ma Li also knew each other. Only the three of them didn't know each other, so he naturally gravitated toward them.

“Hello, Ai Lun, I've heard of you.” Yin Zheng said with a smile.

“Really?” Ai Lun was a little surprised; he hadn't expected Yin Zheng to have heard of him.

He wasn't one of those big stars; his fame wasn't great.

Therefore, it was rare to meet an actor who recognized him.

“That's right! I've watched the TV series and stage plays you acted in.” Yin Zheng continued.

“Haha, I really didn't expect that you, Yin Zheng, would have seen my work.” Hearing Yin Zheng's words, the smile on Ai Lun's face wouldn't stop.

Afterward, the three chatted while eating.

After chatting for a while, they looked toward Shen Teng and Ma Li again.

“Hello everyone, I am Yin Zheng.” Yin Zheng proactively walked over to greet them.

Shen Teng and Ma Li were also a little surprised. They immediately smiled back and said, “Hello, Yin Zheng. Please take care of us when we film later.”

This was the first time Shen Teng and Ma Li were filming a movie; they had no previous acting experience. So, when they saw Yin Zheng and the others, they didn't dare step forward to chat. Even if they were social butterflies, they knew they had to pick the right occasion and people.

Because the actors invited here had all acted in quite a few TV series and movies, more or less.

Only the two of them were stage actors, who had never acted in a movie or TV series before.

In fact, they didn't know that Yin Zheng was the same as them; he was just a bit more outgoing.

“By the way, have you two acted in any movies or TV series?” Yin Zheng suddenly looked at them and asked.

Hearing this, Shen Teng and Ma Li subconsciously exchanged glances, then shook their heads.

“No.” The two told the truth.

Because there was no need to hide it—their encyclopedias couldn't even be searched online right now.

“Me neither.” Yin Zheng also said with a smile.

This surprised the two of them. They thought they were the only ones who hadn't acted before, but they didn't expect the young man in front of them to be the same.

Just as the two were surprised, Tian Yu and Li Liqun walked over and greeted them with smiles.

Seeing this, Yin Zheng immediately smiled and greeted them, “Hello, Teacher Li Liqun, I am Yin Zheng.”

Li Liqun was a veteran actor, and his fame was considerable; everyone present recognized him.

So they all stood up one after another to greet him.

Soon, the gathering ended.

The main creative members of Goodbye Mr. Loser all got to know each other and had a pleasant chat.

In the evening, everyone took a taxi home.

At the same time, Yang Mi, who had just finished filming a night scene, came to the lounge area and called Chen Le.

She remembered that Chen Le's new movie was about to start filming soon and wanted to ask him how the preparations for the new movie were going.

After the call connected, Yang Mi heard Chen Le's voice.

“Hello, Mi Mi, why are you calling me so late?”

“Old Chen, I just finished filming a night scene and wanted to chat with you for a bit.” Yang Mi's voice carried a hint of childish sweetness.

“Of course, you can!” Hearing this, Chen Le nodded with a smile.

“Mhm, Old Chen, has your new movie started filming? I heard you say before the New Year that it would start after the New Year.” Yang Mi asked with concern.

“Not yet, but all the actors have arrived. We can start shooting once we find suitable locations later.” Chen Le said.

“The progress is quite fast!” Yang Mi nodded as she spoke.

“Are there any actors I know?” she continued to ask with a smile.

“You probably don't know many.”

Chen Le thought about the actors in the new Film Crew. Except for Li Liqun and Tian Yu, the others were not very famous.

So Yang Mi most likely wouldn't recognize them.

“Then who are the main cast members of your new movie?” Yang Mi asked curiously.

Hearing her curiosity, Chen Le smiled and told Yang Mi the names of Shen Teng and the others.

After listening, Yang Mi only recognized two: Li Liqun and Tian Yu. She had basically never heard of the others.

“Old Chen, how come I haven't heard of the actors you invited?” Yang Mi was a little surprised.

“Haha, that's exactly why you haven't heard of them. You can try guessing who the protagonist of the new movie is?” Chen Le asked with a smile.

“You want me to guess? This new movie of yours is a comedy, right?” Yang Mi thought for a moment after hearing Chen Le ask her to guess.

“Yes, it's a comedy.” Chen Le nodded.

“If it's a comedy, Teacher Li Liqun is probably unlikely, and Tian Yu's appearance doesn't quite fit either. So it must be those new actors.” Yang Mi analyzed.

After hearing Yang Mi's analysis, Chen Le was a little surprised.

She had actually managed to eliminate the wrong answers.

“Let me give you another hint: two protagonists, one male and one female.” Chen Le continued.

Hearing this, Yang Mi thought for a long time, then finally shook her head.

“I don't know.”

“Alright, it's Shen Teng and Ma Li.” Seeing that Yang Mi couldn't guess, Chen Le didn't press further and revealed the answer directly.

“I haven't heard of them.” Yang Mi shook her head.

She had never heard of these two at all.

“It's fine. Maybe after this movie is released, they'll become famous.” Chen Le said with a smile.

“Old Chen, you're that confident? Then I wish your movie great success.” Hearing this, Yang Mi smiled.

Afterward, Yang Mi heard the Film Crew Director calling for work to start, so she said goodbye to Chen Le and hung up the phone.

“Old Chen, I'm going to film now. Talk next time.”

“Okay!”

On the other side, after Chen Le finished his call with Yang Mi.

The next day, he called Zhao Sheng.

Although the Film Crew for Goodbye Mr. Loser was complete, there was still some time before filming could begin.

Mainly, they needed to wait for Zhao Sheng to go to the filming location first to set up the scene. Only after this issue was resolved could they start shooting.

As for the directing team, they could just use the previous one.

“Brother Sheng, I have to bother you again this time. I need you to go to Liaoning Province first to set up the filming location for the new movie.” Chen Le stated the reason for calling him.

“No problem, Director Chen. Just give me the specific requirements, and I guarantee I'll complete the task.” Hearing Chen Le's words, Zhao Sheng immediately agreed.

The current Chen Le was different from before. Previously, he still thought of Chen Le as a junior schoolmate, but now he only felt admiration for Chen Le.

After all, not everyone could achieve so much in less than two years. He had been working in the industry for so many years longer than Chen Le, yet he had only managed to become an Assistant Director.

But Chen Le had single-handedly produced several blockbuster movies—a talent he dared not even dream of possessing.

“Good, I trust your abilities.” Chen Le nodded with a smile.

With Zhao Sheng around, he didn't need to worry too much about filming the movie himself.

Any difficult or tiring work could just be handed over to Zhao Sheng.

Afterward, he reminded him of a few matters and then sent the requirements for setting up the filming location to Zhao Sheng.
