Ji Wanzhou heard his phone vibrate. He picked up his phone and saw that it was Meng Qingge's message. Then, a smile appeared on his expressionless face.
Ji Wanzhou: "OK, I understand."
Ji Wanzhou sent a message back to Meng Qingge.
Meng Qingge, who had received the news, raised her eyebrows. So long as she knew, it would be the end?
Ji Wanzhou pressed the intercom button, and Jimmy, the assistant outside, immediately picked up.
"The Heroic Theater's crew finished their work half an hour earlier and called for me." Ji Wanzhou instructed.
"Yes, boss." Although he was curious as to why his boss was paying attention to the film crew of The Heroic, he did not dare to ask.
On set.
Perhaps it was the first day, but the later scenes didn't go well and they were stuck at the end of it.
The scene had already gotten stuck for more than a dozen times. The executive director was frowning so much that his eyebrows were about to turn numb.
"Ka!" the executive director yelled unhappily over the loudspeaker.
"Mengyao, what's wrong with you?" No matter how good-natured the executive director was, he no longer had a temper. Although it was just a question, there was no longer any tone of inquiry. He was just blaming them directly.
"Sorry director, I … "I …" Ji Mengyao was so angry and embarrassed after being called out by the executive director in front of so many people that tears started streaming down her face. She was at a loss for words.
"What are you crying for!?" Can crying solve the problem? " The executive director roared again.
The executive director's full name was Zhang Tao. He was famous for his bad temper in the industry. He could not stand to see an actress crying the most.
Sobbing and wailing, a bit of a professional actor?
"Calm down, Director Zhang. It's probably the first time Mengyao has joined the group, so she's not used to it. It's getting dark already. Why don't we try again tomorrow?" Jiang Siyan walked to Director Zhang's side and patted his back.
Director Zhang and Jiang Siyan were old partners, so they had a good relationship in private.
Director Zhang still had to give Jiang Siyan face. Plus, considering the investors behind Ji Mengyao, Director Zhang could not say anything else.
"Everyone gather here at 9 o'clock tomorrow. End the work!" Director Zhang shouted with his megaphone.
Ji Mengyao returned to her business car in tears. The assistant followed her. She didn't even say goodbye to the executive director before she drove away.
Head Director Zhang's unhappy gaze fell on the afterimage of the car.
He then looked at Meng Qingge, who was bowing and thanking him one by one to the staff of the film crew.
"You've worked hard."
"You've worked hard. Take care."
Meng Qingge spoke more than a dozen times and finally came in front of Head Director Zhang.
"Director, you've worked hard. I'll be leaving first." Meng Qingge said with a smile. It was already late at night, and it was a little cold. Meng Qingge had already changed into her own clothes, which were a little warmer.
"You've worked hard too. Hurry up and go back!" When Director Zhang saw Meng Qingge's smiling face, the displeasure on his face disappeared a little.
"Alright, see you tomorrow." Meng Qingge bowed slightly and said goodbye to Director Zhang.
Noticing Jiang Siyan's gaze on her face, out of politeness, Meng Qingge also smiled faintly at Jiang Siyan and left the set.
When Ji Wanzhou received the news from the assistant, he said that "The Heroic Assassin" had suddenly come to an early end. He immediately called Meng Qingge, took the car keys, and pressed the elevator button to go to the underground parking lot.
When Meng Qingge saw the caller ID, Ji Wanzhou, she picked it up.
"Is this the end of the work?" Ji Wanzhou's faint voice came from the phone.
"They're pretty well-informed." Meng Qingge raised her eyebrows as she spoke with a mocking tone.
She didn't expect Ji Wanzhou to call her so soon.
"I'll pick you up." Ji Wanzhou's tone was indifferent, but it seemed that he couldn't refuse.
Because Ji Wanzhou drove Meng Qingge here at noon, Meng Qingge's personal MPV did not follow them. If he called the company to send a car to pick him up, it would be a waste of time coming and going.
Thus, she let Ji Wanzhou come to pick her up. Since she came here in his car at noon, it was normal for her to return home in his car at night.
"Alright." Meng Qingge said lightly and then went back to the set.
The wind was strong at the intersection, so when he returned to his tent, he could still block the wind, lest the wind make him shiver.
