66: Filming of "Lost in Thailand" is underway!

Back in Yanjing.

Shortly after returning home, Yang Mi went to a cafe near her house to meet with Zeng Jia and discuss an advertising endorsement deal.

"Mi Mi, this advertising endorsement is a big deal; it's for the domestic spokesperson of an international jewelry brand," Zeng Jia said as she handed the materials to Yang Mi.

Yang Mi took the documents, flipped through them carefully, and then nodded. "This works. Sister Zeng, you can arrange the rest."

"OK, as long as you're fine with it, Mi Mi." Zeng Jia nodded. "There are also a few skincare advertisements later on. I've scheduled those for you as well, Mi Mi."

"Alright, Sister Zeng." Yang Mi nodded.

She had specifically selected these advertisements. In fact, many advertisers were looking for Yang Mi, but only these few were suitable in the end.

After discussing the advertisements, Yang Mi went back.

In the afternoon, Yang Mi made an appointment with her good friend Liu Shishi to go shopping together.

The two of them arrived at a bustling pedestrian street in Yanjing and began their girls' time.

They moved between different brand-name women's clothing stores. At every shop they entered, they would pick out a few nice pieces of clothing to try on, buying them if they were satisfied.

After wandering for half the afternoon, they grew tired of walking.

So they found a quiet cafe, sat by the window, and enjoyed the afternoon sun and the aroma of coffee.

"Mi Mi, I heard your 'Palace' is about to air soon? I'm quite looking forward to it!" Liu Shishi looked at Yang Mi, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Yeah, Shishi. You have no idea how much effort I put into this drama. I'm almost exhausted to death," Yang Mi said, venting her grievances.

For the sake of this drama, she had worked very hard while with the Film Crew, and later traveled all over the country to hold promotional events, which left her incredibly exhausted.

"Is it that tiring, Mi Mi?" Liu Shishi asked with some surprise.

After all, when they were filming 'chinese paladin 3' before, she had never seen Yang Mi with such a resentful expression.

"Nonsense. For this drama, I had to run to two or three cities a day at most. As soon as one promotional meeting finished in one city, I had to immediately rush to the next. It was the kind of pace where my feet barely touched the ground," Yang Mi continued to grumble.

"Ugh, I feel bad for you, Mi Mi," Liu Shishi said comfortingly.

"By the way, I noticed you haven't taken on a new role in a long time. Do you have any dramas to film later?" Yang Mi asked Liu Shishi, her tone full of concern.

"Well, I'm currently negotiating for a period drama. If it works out, I should join the crew next month," Liu Shishi said, her face showing a look of anticipation.

Although she had been resting for a while, she wouldn't earn any money if she didn't act, so she was starting to feel a bit anxious.

The two chatted, enjoying this rare leisure time.

They talked about each other's work and lives, as well as various interesting stories in the entertainment industry.

In this industry full of competition and pressure, it was truly rare for them to have such a pure friendship.

At this time, the 'lost in thailand' Film Crew arrived in Southern Yunnan.

The filming locations here had been found in advance before the crew arrived. As for the site layout and such...

With Zhao Sheng around, Chen Le didn't need to worry about any of that.

As for Chen Le, he gathered with the main cast members Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Songwen, and others at a restaurant for a meal.

"The scenery in Southern Yunnan is really nice, it's just a bit hot," Chen Le praised sincerely as he looked at the beautiful view outside the car window.

It was just that the latitude here was a bit low. It was only May, and it was already over twenty degrees, nearly thirty.

Having stayed in Yanjing for over four years, he was somewhat unaccustomed to the temperature here.

"Haha, Director Chen, I remember you're a Southerner, right? How can you still find it hot?" Huang Bo said with a laugh.

"After staying in Yanjing for so long, I've lost my heat tolerance," Chen Le laughed and shook his head.

"Haha, I'm about the same," Huang Bo laughed.

"Let's go to a local specialty restaurant for dinner tonight," Chen Le suggested.

"Sure, it's not easy to come here, we can take this opportunity to experience it properly," Huang Bo nodded.

In the evening, they went to a local specialty restaurant to taste authentic Southern Yunnan cuisine.

"Director Chen, after we finish filming the plot in Southern Yunnan, we should be going to Thailand to film next, right?" Huang Bo asked.

"Right. Why, Brother Bo, can't you wait?"

"Haha, nonsense. My visa is almost ready, how could I not be anxious?" Huang Bo said with a laugh.

"Brother Bo, did your visa get processed that quickly?" Wang Baoqiang was very surprised.

"After all, we're filming abroad. It's better to get the visa settled early for peace of mind," Huang Bo explained with a smile.

Chen Le also nodded. His visa was also almost ready. Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Songwen's visas were all being handled collectively by the company.

Only Huang Bo's visa was handled by himself.

Afterwards, they continued eating. They chatted as they ate, talking about interesting things from the previous filming sessions.

The next day, Chen Le got up early.

Today's filming location was at a scenic spot in Southern Yunnan.

It wasn't the peak tourist season in Southern Yunnan right now, so there weren't many tourists at this scenic spot, only a few.

Upon arriving at the filming site, Zhao Sheng had already prepared the filming work, just waiting for Chen Le to come and start the shoot.

"Baoqiang, Teacher Songwen, Brother Bo, how are your preparations going?" Chen Le asked as he walked over to where Wang Baoqiang and the other two were sitting under a thatched hut going over their lines.

"Almost ready, we can start filming in a bit."

"Okay, just a little longer."

Then, after they were ready.

A shout of "Action!"

Chen Le didn't hesitate and immediately started filming.

Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Songwen, and Huang Bo were all in position.

Filming began. This part of the plot was a getaway scene, but this scene was not easy to act.

Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo kept running in the wrong direction; they really were brothers in misfortune.

"Baoqiang, Brother Bo, this is the third time you've run the wrong way." Chen Le covered his face, then let them continue filming.

"Baoqiang, your shoe fell off! Your shoe!" Chen Le shouted.

Nearby, Zhang Songwen was already numb from laughing.

It wasn't his turn to be in the scene yet. Watching Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo's disheveled state, he couldn't stop laughing on the side.

Just like that, the morning passed. After many NGs, this scene finally passed.

In the afternoon, it was Zhang Songwen and Wang Baoqiang's scene.

They went to a hotel room in the scenic area.

Chen Le had Zhang Songwen and Wang Baoqiang sit on the bed.

"Baoqiang, do you remember the lines?" Chen Le asked.

"I remember."

"OK, action!" Chen Le nodded.

Filming began.

Zhang Songwen looked at Wang Baoqiang and spoke: "He wants to harm me!"

Wang Baoqiang asked in confusion: "Why does he want to harm you?"

When Zhang Songwen saw Wang Baoqiang's face, for some reason he suddenly felt it was very funny. He couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.

Seeing this, Wang Baoqiang also started laughing.

"Again. 'He wants to harm me.'"

Zhang Songwen recited a few lines and then continued filming.
