When the lanterns came on, Zhong Yu and Bing Feng drove to attend the dinner.
The appointment was for 7:30 p.m. Zhong Yu and Bing Feng arrived on time, but director Chen Bing had already arrived ten minutes early.
Chen Bing and Jiang Bai, who was hosting the dinner, were chatting. When they saw Zhong Yu arriving, they immediately greeted him with a smile: "Dr. Zhong, I have long admired your name. I am Chen Bing."
Zhong Yu took a look at Chen Bing. He was a middle-aged man, similar in age to Zhang Chengsi.
"Haha, hello, Director Chen." Zhong Yu responded loudly.
Then, Zhong Yu glanced at Bingfeng, who said hello to Chen Bing.
After everyone arrived and took their seats, the waiters served delicacies and fine wines.
After three drinks, Zhong Yu and Chen Bing discussed the preparations for the new web drama while drinking and eating.
Chen Bing kept his stature very low and relied on Zhong Yu's opinion in everything.
It’s not entirely because Zhong Yu is the employer’s boss, but because his senior brother Zhang Chengsi once told him: If you want to make “This Shooter Is Cold” a success, you must listen more to Zhong Yu’s opinions and ask more questions from Zhong Yu on the plot. Yu please, don't change the plot without authorization. If you want to change the plot, it's best to discuss it with Zhong Yu and so on.
Chen Bing was convinced that there was no director who looked down on the boss's random interference, so Zhong Yu intervened in the casting of the first female lead. He had no complaints and was even happy to see the results.
Zhong Yu and Chen Bing discussed the casting of the heroine for half an hour.
Zhong Yu had no intention of making a one-word speech and listened carefully to Chen Bing's opinions.
In the end, they unanimously agreed that Song Qi was more suitable.
However, they did not directly finalize Song Qi.
Because the crew is in contact with a relatively big-name female star.
The female star's name is Li Xin. She is also a little flower, but she is currently popular.
After discussing the casting of the first heroine, Chen Bing continued to ask Zhong Yu for script advice.
His approach is different from most domestic directors.
China is a director-centered system. During the filming process, the director almost has the final say, and even the management cannot easily interfere.
And he planned to center on Zhong Yu, the boss and screenwriter.
Chen Bing's idea is very simple, first make a popular movie and then use it as a stepping stone to promotion, just like his senior brother Zhang Chengsi.
Zhong Yu was more patient when Chen Bing asked for advice on the script, because he hoped that this new drama would be successful.
It's not just a matter of money and reputation, but also because of his original intention - to make Bingbing popular and successfully transform into a truly popular male star.
The meal took two and a half hours to finish.
In the parking lot, when he was about to leave, Chen Bing asked Zhong Yu: "Director Zhong, if I have any questions about the plot of the script, can I call you for advice?"
"Okay, you are welcome to call me to discuss and communicate." Zhong Yu nodded.
Chen Bing couldn't help but smile happily: "Thank you very much. You have everything to do..."
"I'm not the Prime Minister." Zhong Yu interrupted with a smile.
Chen Bing also laughed.
Separating from Chen Bing, Zhong Yu got into the passenger seat and let Bing Feng drive.
Although it was a dinner party, Bing Feng still refused to drink.
After driving into the busy main street, Bing Feng said: "Captain, let's go for a walk by the river?"
"Okay." Zhong Yu immediately responded with a smile, "Speaking of which, we haven't walked along the river together for a long time."
Bingfeng sighed: "It's been more than four years."
Seventeen or eight minutes later, Zhong Yu and Bing Feng were walking side by side along the river.
It was already late autumn, the night was very cool, and the riverside was even windier. The usually crowded riverside became sparsely populated.
Of course, the main reason was that the section of the river where they were walking was not the Bund. There were still many people on the Bund at this time.
However, the river wind was still a bit stronger. After walking for five or six minutes, Bing Feng couldn't bear it anymore and his body was shaking.
It was a last-minute idea to go for a walk by the river, and he was wearing a little thin clothes.
When Zhong Yu saw Bing Feng's coldness, he reached out and put his hands on Bing Feng's shoulders. The two brothers put their arms around each other nicely, which not only protected Bing Feng from the wind, but also transferred some body heat to Bing Feng through physical contact.
His body was strong and his energy and blood were strong, so Bing Feng could endure the coldness.
In fact, they didn't talk about anything, they just chatted casually.
Their friendship has become so deep that they no longer need to find topics to talk about.
After walking for more than an hour, the two left the riverside and separated directly. Zhong Yu took a taxi back to Qin Yueshan and Bing Feng drove home.
When Feng Feng returned home, Sister Hong was applying a facial mask in the living room while watching TV.
Bingfeng called sister, and when he was about to go to the bathroom, he was stopped by sister Hong: "Brother, come here!"
Bingfeng walked over, and Sister Hong stood up and smelled Bingfeng.
"What's wrong?" Bingfeng asked.
Sister Hong: "I should be the one to ask you. What time is it now? Why did you come back so late? Did the metaphor lead you to learn something bad?"
Bing Feng was speechless for a while, then said: "Sister, don't be so prejudiced against the captain, okay?"
"Answer my question!" Sister Hong said fiercely.
Bing Feng lowered his head a little and said honestly: "The captain and Director Chen discussed the script for a long time, and it didn't end until ten o'clock. Then the captain and I went for a walk by the river."
"It's late at night, it's so windy and cold by the river, what's the point of you two grown men taking a walk?" Sister Hong didn't believe it and asked sternly, "Tell me, what did you do after the dinner? Did you go to a nightclub? Plant a place, and then one person can be a voluptuous person?"
Bingfeng murmured: "We don't have one."
…
Sister Hong interrogated him for a while, and then she let Bingfeng go after confirming that he was really not a bad person.
Then, she helped Bingfeng find clothes and let him take a bath and so on. She took good care of him and was very gentle.
The next Saturday, in the afternoon, Zhong Yu asked Tang Hongling to borrow a Ferrari.
It turned out that Zhou Wenshan invited him to play at the Sanwanshan drag racing track.
Since having dinner with Zhou Wenshan that time, Zhou Wenshan has often contacted him and has developed into a good friend.
Zhou Wenshan pulled him into a racing group. The group was not big, with only a dozen or so people, including Zhao Tianle and Zhou Zhiyu.
Through the chat group, Zhao Tianle and Zhou Zhiyu also occasionally interacted with Zhong Yu.
This time Zhou Wenshan invited him to come over to play, not to let him race.
In addition, in addition to him, Zhao Tianle and Zhou Zhiyu also participated.
As long as everything was fine, Zhong Yu agreed.
Otherwise, if you keep not showing up, people will gradually ignore you and you will not be friends.
At about 7:30 in the evening, Zhong Yu drove his Ferrari to the Sanwanshan Drag Racing Track.
Although the weather is cold, the Sanwanshan drag racing track is still very hot. There are all kinds of supercars parked in the parking lot. Young girls who love vanity and worship money are still wearing revealing clothes and chasing the rich second generation.
Zhong Yu stopped the car, and Zhou Wenshan personally greeted him. Then he raised Zhong Yu's hand and announced loudly to everyone: "This is the car god of our Sanwanshan Drive - Zhong Yu!"
For a moment, most people gathered around to look at Zhong Yu and shouted with admiration: "The God of Cars! The God of Cars! The God of Cars..."
It turned out that Zhong Yu's speed record on Sanwanshan Lane was far ahead of the second place, which made this group of fanatical speed racing party look up to and admire him very much.
