7: Yang Mi: Yes, it was just chatting with my boyfriend!

By the roadside of the food stalls, Chen Le stood up, moved behind Wang Baoqiang, and called out,

"Wang Baoqiang!"

Wang Baoqiang turned his head and looked at Chen Le with a face full of confusion.

Who are you? Do I know you? Why are you calling me?

At the same time, Wang Baoqiang's other three roommates also looked toward Chen Le.

They were also very confused, looking at Chen Le and wondering to themselves if this person was Wang Baoqiang's friend.

At this moment, a trace of bewilderment appeared in Wang Baoqiang's eyes. He froze for a moment before looking at Chen Le and speaking with some uncertainty, "Ah, were you calling me?"

Beside him, Wang Baoqiang's three roommates were once again confused by the situation.

Looking at the situation, it seemed Wang Baoqiang didn't know the young man in front of him. What was going on?

"Baoqiang, who is he? Do you know him?" Beside Wang Baoqiang, a slightly older man looked at him and asked.

Wang Baoqiang shook his head.

Seeing Wang Baoqiang shake his head, the three of them were dumbfounded.

Wang Baoqiang really didn't know the young man in front of him.

At this point, Chen Le nodded.

"I was the one who called you."

Then, Chen Le introduced himself.

"My name is Chen Le, and I'm a director. I just saw you and realized you're suitable for a role in my new project. I'd like to invite you to join the Film Crew for my new movie!"

Hearing this, Wang Baoqiang was momentarily stunned, and then he looked completely bewildered.

What's the situation?

A director?

Inviting me to join the Film Crew of your new movie?

Then, Wang Baoqiang suddenly realized something, and a look of joy rose on his face.

"Brother, is what you're saying true?" Wang Baoqiang asked with excitement and a bit of apprehension.

Although the current Wang Baoqiang was already twenty-seven, he still called Chen Le 'Brother'.

Beside him, one of Wang Baoqiang's roommates saw his excited face and suddenly spoke up: "Baoqiang, be careful not to get scammed. There are many such scammers around here now."

"Yeah, look at how young that guy is. How could he be a director? Even if he is a director, what kind of good movie could he have for you to act in?"

Hearing the words of his two roommates, Wang Baoqiang's originally excited heart was suddenly doused with a bucket of cold water, and he immediately calmed down.

Because what his roommates said was indeed possible, and he had heard of people being scammed. Such things were not uncommon; many people had been scammed until they had nothing left.

Thinking this way, Wang Baoqiang felt very hesitant.

He had wasted many years here, always being an extra and never having landed a decent role, not even a regular supporting role.

Many directors would just pass him over as soon as they saw his appearance.

Now that an opportunity had finally appeared before him... Wang Baoqiang struggled internally for a moment, and then his gaze became firm.

Being scammed is better than this hopeless situation. You have to try an opportunity to know if it's real.

Beside them, Chen Le heard the words of Wang Baoqiang's roommates but didn't say anything, only offering a smile.

It was normal for them to have such concerns, and Chen Le could understand.

Chen Le nodded, "I have no reason to lie to you."

"I know you don't trust me for the time being. How about this, Baoqiang, can you give me your contact information? We'll find a place to talk tomorrow, and you can give me your answer then." Chen Le said, looking at Wang Baoqiang.

Hearing Chen Le say this, Wang Baoqiang nodded, and the two of them exchanged contact information.

Beside them, Wang Baoqiang's roommates whispered, "Baoqiang, do you really believe him? He looks like a student who just graduated. Even if he is a director, are you sure he has a movie for you to act in?"

"Sigh, Brother Qian, I want to try. You know I've been an extra here for seven or eight years. If I keep going like this, when will I ever see an end to it?" Wang Baoqiang sighed.

"Since that's the case, I won't try to persuade you anymore. Just be careful yourself."

"I will, Brother Qian."

...Chen Le returned to his seat, and Gang Zi immediately asked curiously, "Wait, Old Chen, what's the deal? Do you know those people?"

"I don't know them. I just saw someone I feel is very suitable for a role in my new script. I talked to him and wanted to invite him to act."

"New script? Old Chen, your new script is already out? That fast?" Gang Zi was very surprised.

"Yeah, I had the concept for this new script before, we just didn't have the money to film it." Chen Le nodded and explained.

"I see. Old Chen, can you tell me what genre your new script is?" Gang Zi was curious about the new script Chen Le mentioned and asked.

"It's still a comedy."

"Still a comedy?" Gang Zi paused for a moment. "Do you like comedies that much?"

Hearing this, Chen Le smiled. It wasn't about what he liked; it was just that he happened to run into Wang Baoqiang, and Wang Baoqiang was suited for comedy.

The two of them continued chatting.

On the other side, Yang Mi finished the recording of Happy Camp.

At this time, Teacher He and Sister Na looked at Yang Mi, Tang Yan, and the others, saying with a smile, "Everyone worked hard on the recording. Let's go have a late-night snack later to reward everyone."

"Sure! Thank you, Teacher He." With that, Yang Mi and the others all agreed.

On the way, they were in a special car arranged by the program crew.

In the car, Tang Yan, Liu Shisi, and Teacher He were chatting happily.

"Shishi, your new drama is a big hit..."

Yang Mi sat to the side, listening to them chat without joining in.

She took out her phone, took a photo of the interior of the car, and sent it to Chen Le via QQ.

"Old Chen, I've finished recording the show. Where are you now?"

On the other side, Chen Le, who was chatting with Gang Zi, received the photo and message. He also took a photo and sent it to Yang Mi.

"I'm out having a late-night snack with Gang Zi."

Seeing this, Yang Mi replied, "What a coincidence, so am I. Teacher He is treating us to a late-night snack."

Then, she asked another question.

"How's the movie thing going?"

"It's been sent for review. Once the review is finished, it can be released."

"Mm, you've worked hard."

Yang Mi was chatting with Chen Le and didn't notice that it had suddenly become quiet beside her, as she was still immersed in the conversation.

Just as Yang Mi was still typing, a black-haired head leaned toward her face.

"Eh? Mi Mi, who are you chatting with?" Tang Yan's voice rang out, giving Yang Mi a fright.

Yang Mi clutched her chest, pushed Tang Yan away, and said irritably, "Yan Yan, are you trying to scare me to death?"

Seeing this, Tang Yan smiled and said, "Who told you to look at your phone so intently? Who are you chatting with? You're so absorbed in it. Is it your boyfriend?"

Seeing Tang Yan's smiling face, Yang Mi rolled her eyes. "That's right, I'm chatting with my boyfriend. Are you jealous?"

Tang Yan's eyes widened. "Mi Mi, for real?"
