It was a pleasure for everyone to get together, but there were still a lot of things to do before the start-up day. Drinking was only a few drinks, and after a meal, everyone was busy with other things.
Under the established arrangements of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, the crew set out in advance on the afternoon of the next day, led by on-site deputy director Wu Qingyuan and part of the production team.
The casting director's audition also ended on the third day, and the names were handed over to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei immediately.
With the complete list in hand, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, together with the rest of the production team, began to arrange their roles according to the actors' schedules and formulate a shooting plan for scenes related to Laojun Mountain.
While making plans, inform the actors at the same time.
The actors who need to attend the launch conference were summoned to the Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing.
Actors who do not need to attend the press conference and have roles in Laojun Mountain must arrive at the hotel on Laojun Mountain in advance to check in and wait.
As for the actors who will not attend the press conference and do not have the role of Laojunshan, they can just wait for the crew to call before the transition. The crew will contact them in advance.
Zhao Jian, Huang Lei and others on the directing team are also making their own preparations to ensure that nothing goes wrong once "Zhu Xian" is launched.
Just like that, all departments of the crew were working intensively, and everything was in order.
As the day approached for the press conference, media from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places across the country set out in advance to arrive at the Shangri-La Hotel where the press conference was held.
All major media were invited.
Not only are they interested in the big investment "Zhu Xian", but the existence of these three people, Zhang Jizhong, Chu Xuan, and Liu Yifei, is also a point of great interest to them.
In particular, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei are extremely popular actors. Their sudden status as producers is bound to generate a lot of topics after the interview.
With such expectations, the launch conference of "Zhu Xian" arrived as scheduled.
——November 11, early morning.
It’s almost mid-November in Beijing, and it feels like winter has entered.
However, under the gentle warm breeze, the room didn't feel cold, just like spring.
In the kitchen, Liu Xiaoli was wearing an apron, standing in front of the stove, holding a spatula in her hand, flipping the dough in the pot, and making breakfast.
"Newly learned, pancakes and fruit. This is my first time making it. I'll try it later to see if it tastes good."
Liu Xiaoli smiled slightly and glanced at Chu Xuan and Qian Qian who were standing side by side.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei had just woken up and had nothing to do after washing, so they ran to the kitchen to join in the fun.
Liu Yifei's right hand rested on Chu Xuan's left shoulder. After hearing her mother's words, she raised her eyebrows.
"Why don't we go down and eat some noodles?" she said jokingly.
Chu Xuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at her. Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows at him mischievously.
Liu Xiaoli looked at them sideways and said, "Don't believe in my cooking skills?"
Chu Xuan shook his head and said: "What she said is none of my business. I trust my aunt's cooking skills very much."
Liu Yifei bulged her eyes and reached out to pinch Chu Xuan's face.
"We are in the same group." She pretended not to be angry.
Chu Xuan blinked and said, "Auntie's cooking skills have always been very good. I can't speak out of conscience."
Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan, smiled slightly, and gave him a thumbs up.
Seeing him acting like a son-in-law saying nice things for his mother-in-law, Liu Yifei pretended to be angry and pouted.
"You two should learn to cook when you have time, at least learn to make something simple. Don't order food when I'm not around." Liu Xiaoli flipped the pancake with a spatula in one hand and put her hands on her hips with the other.
After hearing her mother's words, Liu Yifei glanced at Chu Xuan, learn to cook?
Chu Xuan pursed his lips and said, "You can't learn this. What will you do in the future if you learn it?"
Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows and was startled. She understood what Chu Xuan said and couldn't help but smile.
Liu Xiaoli turned around halfway and looked at Chu Xuan with a half-smile.
"My existence is to help you cook?" she said.
Seeing her mother's slightly dangerous look, Liu Yifei put down her hand on Chu Xuan's shoulder and playfully moved a step to the side, a little farther away from Chu Xuan.
"What he said is none of my business." She pointed at Chu Xuan.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoli was quite amused and said, "Are you guys hurting each other?"
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"The main thing is..." Chu Xuan paused, collected his thoughts and said: "When I was a freshman, I ate the food cooked by my aunt, and I passed the audition for Murong Fu; at that time, I ate the food cooked by my aunt during the National Day, and I auditioned
I passed Guan Xuan; last year I went to my aunt's house for dinner with Sister Hua, and Li Xiaoyao's character development went very smoothly."
"After "Sword" was finished, I ate the food cooked by my aunt, and "Micro Entertainment" became a success; I ate the food cooked by my aunt on the set of "The Condor", and "The Condor" was successfully completed; during this period, I ate my aunt's food every day,
The preliminary work of "Zhu Xian" was very smooth."
Listening to his words, it was full of fun, and Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei burst into laughter.
"Is it all my fault?" Liu Xiaoli looked at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan nodded and said: "This meal cannot be cut off, it is related to the future."
Liu Yifei squatted on the ground, covering her stomach with her hands, with a cheerful look on her face. Chu Xuan's teasing made her overjoyed.
Liu Xiaoli was also very happy and said: "Your reason for not wanting to learn to cook makes me happy and worried."
Chu Xuan didn't hold back and laughed.
For a moment, it looked like a family of three, full of joy.
Liu Yifei stood up slowly, with a smile still on her face. She held her stomach with her left hand and put her right hand on Chu Xuan's left shoulder again for support.
"Auntie, let's go to Laojun Mountain together tomorrow?" Chu Xuan said.
Liu Xiaoli raised her eyebrows and responded.
"Yes, you have to study in a group." She said.
"Mom, do you want to go together? The scenery over there is beautiful." Liu Yifei shook her head cutely.
"The villa is about to be finished. If you go, you will come back next month." Liu Xiaoli said.
"The post-production of "The Condor" will be completed next month, and we will be back together when the time comes." Chu Xuan said.
Liu Xiaoli nodded and said, "Okay, I'll help you pack it up later and we'll go together tomorrow."
She added, "In the past few months, I have to take care of the decoration of the villa, go to the company to study the information and notes left by your sister Hua, and deal with your external business that your sister Hua has entrusted to me."
Liu Xiaoli shook her head and said, "I'm a little tired. I should go on a trip to relax."
After saying that, she looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei again, "I still have two cubs to take care of."
Hearing this, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at each other happily.
"One of the cubs is the vice chairman of a company worth billions at a young age. If you tell others about this, and you have trained such a cub, you would call him an outstanding one, auntie." Chu Xuan said suddenly.
After saying this, Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei couldn't stop laughing, and the kitchen was filled with joy again.
Liu Xiaoli looked happy and was preparing breakfast on the chopping board.
Seeing that breakfast was ready, Liu Yifei put her arm around Chu Xuan's waist from behind and pushed Chu Xuan out slowly with her body.
"Why are you so cute?" She said sweetly, raising her chin and resting it on Chu Xuan's right shoulder.
Perhaps she was in a good mood, so Liu Yifei grabbed Chu Xuan's arms with both hands, pressed the toes of her feet against the heels of Chu Xuan's shoes, and led Chu Xuan forward from behind, hand and foot.
This picture is funny and loving.
"Don't use these two words to describe me. I have nothing to do with these two words." Chu Xuan walked in front, letting Liu Yifei, who was close behind him, be at the mercy of him.
"It's just cute." Liu Yifei said playfully.
"Whatever you say is what it is." Chu Xuan gave up struggling.
"Yeah!" Liu Yifei raised her hand and gestured "yeah" in front of Chu Xuan's eyes.
Chu Xuan shook his head helplessly and fondly, defeated by Liu Yifei's innocence.
The two sat down side by side on the chairs. Liu Xiaoli brought breakfast and started eating together.
"After more than three months, it's finally time to start the machine." Liu Yifei took a sip of milk.
She is very happy that "Zhu Xian" is about to start filming.
The concept and ideas of the entire script were formulated according to her and Chu Xuan's ideas. "Zhu Xian" will start filming soon, and she has strong expectations and interest in how the actors' interpretations will turn out combined with the venue.
"Including Brother Liu's time to coordinate the first version of the script, it took nine months." Chu Xuan took a bite of the cake.
Liu Yifei nodded, preparations for "Zhu Xian" began in March, and it has been almost nine months since mid-November.
"It takes nine months to prepare, about five months to shoot, four or five months to post-editing and special effects, one month to review for radio and television, and one month to produce and distribute. The birth of a TV series takes
In the past two years, it has been really difficult to produce film and television dramas," she lamented.
Without experiencing this, she really wouldn't have known that as an actor, she only needs to shoot a drama for a few months, but the entire final production process would be so complicated and time-consuming.
"The time consuming of some work cannot be reduced, but we must find ways to improve the efficiency of preparatory work and post-production work. We cannot control other companies, but Bright Times can take a step forward in this regard." Chu.
Xuan said.
Liu Yifei said "Yeah" and agreed very much.
She used chopsticks to scoop out the yolks from the fried eggs on her plate and put them on Chu Xuan's plate.
Chu Xuan took it for granted, ate the egg yolk in one bite, and said: "We will wait until the company develops. Now the company has insufficient foundation and cannot make changes."
Liu Yifei nodded and said: "Sister Hua won't come back until the end of the month. We will join the team tomorrow. There won't be any problems in the company, right?"
Chu Xuan shook his head and said: "The documents that need to be signed and stamped will be temporarily stored until Sister Hua comes back and she will deal with them. Everything has been explained clearly. It's okay."
Hearing what he said, Liu Yifei felt relieved.
I ate some breakfast to fill my stomach.
Chu Xuan's cell phone rang. He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was the driver who came to pick them up.
"Let's go." Liu Yifei glanced at the phone screen and said.
Chu Xuan put down his chopsticks and stood up with Liu Yifei.
"Auntie, let's go."
"Mom, bye."
The two of them said hello each.
"The press conference went well." Liu Xiaoli said happily while eating slowly.
With two children at such an age, she is very happy that a new career is about to start again, and she is still the leader.
Picking up the coat from the sofa and putting it on, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei came to the door to change their shoes.
Both of them wore windbreakers that went down to their calves, each wore a knitted sweater underneath, and both wore royal blue jeans.
Chu Xuan's windbreaker is black and the inner sweater is white.
Liu Yifei's windbreaker is white and the inner knitted sweater is black.
No need to think about it, this couple outfit must have been bought by Liu Yifei.
At the door, Liu Yifei bent down and put on her brown ladies' boots. She straightened up and stretched out her hands to brush the hair falling around her ears. After walking out of the door, she took Chu Xuan's hand and slammed the door with her other hand.
, the two of them went downstairs.
The morning sun seems warm, but the air is chilly.
The two walked out of the corridor. Although the cold wind hit their faces, the warm sunshine shone on their faces, making Liu Yifei squint her eyes slightly, with a soft look on her face, and involuntarily shook the hand she held with Chu Xuan.
With this good mood, I went to the gate of the community, got into the company's commercial vehicle, started the vehicle, and drove away.
