30: Where did Chen Le find the actors? They're hilarious!

The premiere of "lost on journey" was held in a luxurious cinema in Yanjing.

Chen Le had already booked out a screening room.

At the entrance of the cinema, a black commercial van slowly came to a stop.

Then, the car door opened, and Dean Wang, Zhang Songwen, and Naza stepped out; they had all come together from the Beijing Film Academy.

At the same time, Wang Baoqiang also arrived at the cinema.

Meanwhile, Chen Le had been waiting at the cinema entrance for a long time.

"Old Wang, Teacher Songwen, Naza, Baoqiang—you're all here!" Seeing them, Chen Le immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"Chen Le, you brat, show some respect. Can't you stop calling me Old Wang in public?" Hearing Chen Le call him Old Wang in front of others, Dean Wang felt like he was losing all face.

"Alright, alright, Old Wang. Next time I'll call you Dean Wang, okay? Dean Wang?" Chen Le nodded helplessly upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Dean Wang let Chen Le off the hook.

At this point, they entered the screening room, where everyone had already gathered.

Entering the screening room, Dean Wang and the others took their seats. Their spots were near the front, sitting together with Chen Le.

At that moment, Chen Le walked to the front of the screen, looked at the crowd, and said with a smile, "Welcome everyone to the premiere of 'lost on journey.' After two months, our new movie is finally being released."

"Congratulations!" Dean Wang said with a smile.

Beside him, Zhang Songwen, Wang Baoqiang, and the members of the film's creative team burst into applause after hearing Chen Le's words.

"Next is the premiere of our new movie. Please enjoy the screening." After saying this, Chen Le returned to his seat.

Beside him, Naza looked at Chen Le, her eyes filled with joy.

The movie premiere began, and the production company appeared in the opening credits: Chenxing Film and Television Media.

Seeing this name, Dean Wang was momentarily stunned.

He turned to Chen Le and asked in confusion, "Did a company invest in your movie?"

Hearing Old Wang's confusion, Chen Le immediately shook his head and said with a smile, "This is a company I founded myself."

Dean Wang was very surprised to hear Chen Le's words.

Beside them, Naza was also shocked to hear Chen Le say he had started his own company.

"Brother Le, you already have your own media company?" Naza looked at Chen Le and said in surprise.

Hearing Naza's surprised tone, Chen Le explained with a smile, "Actually, I just registered a company. Right now, it's just a shell; I haven't even recruited anyone yet."

"I see." Naza nodded, and then they continued to watch the movie screen.

Meanwhile, at another cinema.

Yang Mi brought Tong Liya to watch the premiere of "lost on journey."

Although she felt it was a pity she couldn't attend the official premiere ceremony of "lost on journey," she still wanted to support its opening; after all, it was a movie directed by Chen Le.

Walking into the screening hall, Yang Mi immediately saw that quite a few people were seated inside, appearing to be dozens of them.

They reached their seats, and Tong Liya looked around, whispering to Yang Mi, "Mi Mi, there are quite a lot of people watching the movie today."

"Yeah, quite a lot indeed," Yang Mi nodded.

"It's only Friday, not even Saturday yet, and there are already so many people," Tong Liya remarked.

The movie hadn't started yet, so Yang Mi could hear the surrounding audience talking.

"I wonder how this movie is. I only came to see it because of Mi Mi's post on the Social Media Platform."

"I don't think it'll be bad. I know this director; his last movie, 'nightclub,' was pretty good."

"I saw 'nightclub' last time, it was quite funny. This 'lost on journey' is also a comedy, so it shouldn't be too bad."

"I haven't seen 'nightclub.' I just came for Mi Mi; I want to see a movie she's in."

...Hearing the audience's discussion, the corners of Yang Mi's mouth curled up slightly.

Just then, the movie began.

In the movie, a group of people were sitting around a circular conference table.

Li Chenggong, the CEO of United Doll Culture Group, looked at his subordinates and began various forms of gaslighting.

Then the scene shifted, and Niu Geng (Wang Baoqiang), a senior milker at Xingfu Dairy Farm, was watching the news on TV, which said that this year's Spring Festival travel rush would be even more crowded than usual.

Niu Geng looked at the dairy farm owner and asked him for money.

The owner was helpless; he didn't have any money either, only a pile of IOUs.

"I really don't have any money left. If you're so capable, go collect it yourselves!" the owner said in total frustration.

Thus, Niu Geng took the IOUs and set off on the road to City Name to collect the debt.

Niu Geng, played by Wang Baoqiang, arrived at the airport carrying his luggage and a bucket of milk from the dairy farm. He went to the check-in counter to ask if the ticket in his hand was for City Name.

There, Niu Geng ran into Li Chenggong, who was also heading to City Name.

Then came the classic scene where Niu Geng brought a pile of things to security.

As it turned out, the milk couldn't pass security. Aside from throwing it away, the only other option was to drink it.

Niu Geng chose to drink it. Thus, the scene of Wang Baoqiang chugging the milk appeared on the big screen.

This scene not only stunned the people in the movie, but even the audience was dumbfounded.

Seeing the expressions of Li Chenggong and the security lady, the audience immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, this is so funny! Look at Li Chenggong's expression."

"Li Chenggong is completely dumbstruck. That's hilarious!"

"This movie has so many gags; I can't believe they did that."

"I'm totally stunned. Is Niu Geng's stomach really that big?"

Beside them, Yang Mi and Tong Liya were also laughing uncontrollably.

Although Yang Mi had a cameo role, she knew nothing about the earlier plot.

Seeing this scene now, while finding it hilarious, she also wondered what was going on in Chen Le's head to come up with such a plot.

Meanwhile, at the premiere in Yanjing.

Dean Wang was also laughing his head off when he saw this segment.

"Chen Le, how does your brain work? How did you come up with a plot like this?"

Hearing Old Wang's question, Chen Le gave a cheeky grin and said, "I just thought of it randomly."

In reality, how would he know? After all, he hadn't come up with it himself; he was merely a porter of movies from his previous life.

Beside him, Naza was also laughing non-stop as she watched this part.

She looked at Wang Baoqiang and asked curiously through her laughter, "Big Brother Baoqiang, did you really drink a whole bucket of milk while filming?"

Hearing Naza's question, Wang Baoqiang gave a somewhat awkward smile.

At this point, Chen Le explained.

"When Baoqiang filmed this scene, he really drank it. It took three takes to pass, and he drank so much he threw up."

After that, the movie's plot moved to the airplane.

Niu Geng, flying for the first time, got airsick. He kept his mouth tightly shut, looking like he was about to vomit.

Seeing this, Li Chenggong, who was sitting next to him, was startled.

He quickly told Niu Geng not to vomit, but Niu Geng couldn't hold it in. Milk overflowed to the corners of his mouth, and then he swallowed it back down.

Seeing this part, the audience couldn't stop laughing.

"No way, this guy's acting is just too funny."

"This actor is really good. Where did the director find him?"

"Hahaha, I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe. Poor Li Chenggong next to him looks so miserable."

"I can't take it, I'm dying of laughter!"

"He's a real talent!"
