59: Tong Yaya: You two are so in love!

Yanjing.

In a private room at the Genting Restaurant in the city center, the first meeting of the main creative team for "lost in thailand" was being held.

The restaurant's private room was decorated with both elegance and a modern touch, with soft lighting bathing the room.

Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Songwen, Huang Bo, and the new Assistant Director sat around the dining table in the private room.

Chen Le sat in the main seat and said with a smile, "Today is the first meeting of our new Film Crew's creative team. Let me introduce you; this is Zhao Sheng, our Film Crew's Assistant Director and a top student of Dean Wang."

As he spoke, Chen Le looked at the young man to his left, who had a refined appearance and wore silver-framed glasses.

The young man stood up with a kind expression, nodded to everyone, and said with a smile, "Hello everyone, I am Zhao Sheng. Like Director Chen, I graduated from the Beijing Film Academy. I am Director Chen's senior and the Assistant Director for 'lost in thailand'. I am very happy to work with you all!"

After that, Zhao Sheng finished his self-introduction.

Zhang Songwen and the others applauded, smiling and saying, "Director Zhao, please take care of us."

Then, Chen Le looked at Huang Bo next to him and said with a smile, "Teacher Huang, would you like to introduce yourself?"

Seeing this, Huang Bo nodded with a smile, "Sure! Since Director Chen said so, I'll introduce myself."

"I am Huang Bo. You might have heard of me before, or even if you haven't, you've probably seen me. I acted in 'Crazy Stone'. It's my first time meeting everyone today, so please take care of me."

Huang Bo finished his self-introduction with a smile and sat down.

He was quite famous in the industry now, as "Crazy Stone" had made him a star.

"Teacher Huang, I've heard so much about you! I really didn't expect Director Chen to invite you as well." Zhang Songwen, sitting nearby, nodded with a smile and shook hands with Huang Bo.

He had recognized Huang Bo as soon as he walked through the door.

"Teacher Songwen, I've also heard a lot about you. I'm very happy to be working with you." Huang Bo, being socially savvy, responded immediately.

"Hello, Teacher Huang." Wang Baoqiang spoke a bit formally. Huang Bo's reputation was quite significant, and Wang Baoqiang was very respectful toward his seniors.

"Baoqiang, I've heard of you too. I never expected you to have such achievements at such a young age." Huang Bo looked at Wang Baoqiang, his eyes full of appreciation.

He was glad to see more and more fresh blood in the comedy circle.

"You flatter me, Teacher Huang."

The atmosphere of the gathering gradually became lively, and they began to discuss the script, characters, and filming plan for "lost in thailand" while chatting.

Meanwhile, in Nanguang City, Yang Mi had just finished the promotional activities for "Palace" and was taking a car back to the hotel with Tong Liya, feeling exhausted.

In the car, Yang Mi took out her phone and sent a message to Chen Le.

"Old Chen, I'm so tired today. I just finished the promotional activities."

Just a moment after she sent it, Chen Le replied, "Good work. 'lost in thailand' is about to start filming soon, so I'll be going abroad then."

Seeing Chen Le's message, Yang Mi immediately asked curiously.

"What's it like over there? Can you take some photos for me then?"

She had never been to Thailand, so she was curious about what it was like.

Chen Le then replied with an "Okay."

Beside her, Tong Liya saw Yang Mi looking at her phone with a smile and immediately leaned in, asking with a grin, "Mi Mi, are you chatting with Chen Le? Why are you smiling so happily?"

Hearing her words, Yang Mi's face turned red, and she nodded, "Yeah."

Seeing this, Tong Liya immediately teased, "Mi Mi, you and your Old Chen are way too lovey-dovey! You've only been apart for a few days and you can't stand it?"

Yang Mi's face flushed slightly, and she immediately scoffed, saying with some embarrassment, "You, a single dog, have the nerve to laugh at me? Why don't you have anyone to be lovey-dovey with?"

Hearing this, Tong Liya's face stiffened. That hit hard, sister.

"I'm a single noble," she defended herself.

"What are you chatting about with your Old Chen?" she asked, changing the subject.

Yang Mi paused for a moment and then said, "Talking about his new movie 'lost in thailand'. They're going to film in Thailand."

"Filming is starting so soon? Is Thailand very beautiful?" Tong Liya asked curiously.

"Yeah, I just asked Old Chen to take some photos and send them to me."

"Mi Mi, once your boyfriend takes the photos, send them to me too!"

"Sure."

The two continued chatting until they returned to the hotel.

In the blink of an eye, April arrived.

The preparations for "lost in thailand" were almost complete.

Today was the commencement ceremony, and all the Film Crew members arrived at the filming location.

This time, Chen Le had invested a large amount of capital into "lost in thailand", with a planned investment of over 20 million.

With such a large investment, he couldn't just throw together a commencement ceremony like before.

It had to be somewhat formal to bring the movie good luck.

A movie commencement ceremony isn't actually that complex: find a good venue, set up a stage, have the director and actors give long speeches, and then have a couple of small performances to liven up the atmosphere.

The location for the commencement ceremony of "lost in thailand" was chosen at an Ancient City Scenic Area.

The time for the ceremony was also carefully selected, being an auspicious and lucky day.

Before the ceremony began, the Film Crew members started getting busy.

They laid out the red carpet, set up flowers and balloons, and prepared cameras to record this important moment. Everything was organized and ready, waiting for all the actors, the director, and other leaders to arrive.

Around ten in the morning, Chen Le, Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Songwen, Huang Bo, and the others finally appeared. They were wearing Film Crew uniforms and looked full of energy.

Everyone had a big smile on their face.

As soon as they stepped onto the red carpet, they began greeting the media and fans.

For this commencement ceremony, Chen Le chose not to keep a low profile and instead invited many media outlets to cover it.

Meanwhile, on the official website of "lost on journey", it was announced that the second installment, "lost in thailand", was about to start filming in Thailand.

Many fans of "lost on journey" came because of its reputation to attend the new movie's commencement ceremony.

Soon, the host appeared.

It was Zhang Songwen, who was acting as the temporary host for the commencement ceremony.

"I'm very happy everyone is here for the commencement ceremony of 'lost in thailand'. Now, let's welcome our director, Chen Le, to the stage to give a speech."

Chen Le walked onto the stage, picked up the microphone, and began to speak.

"I'm very happy to see so many fans here. I won't give a long speech. For the second installment, we've come to beautiful Thailand to film, and we'll be staying in this foreign land for the next few months... Let us wish for the smooth filming of the new movie and a very successful start!"

He didn't give a long speech, but just said a few simple words.

Then, the ceremony continued with the introduction of the lead actors, who all went on stage to give speeches.

Finally, all the lead actors and key Film Crew members took a photo together, shouting with smiles on their faces:

"A successful start!"
