director of the millennium

It's an old apartment building that looks old on the outside but has a fairly new interior.

In the suite, half of which was decorated in 1999 style and the other half in 2018 style, Wu Yuan, wearing a Haidilao work uniform, was standing in the middle of the intersection of the two rooms of different styles, swinging the wide noodles in his hand in a very comical manner.

Directly opposite him was a low table with a pile of hot pot dishes on it and a hot pot stove in the center.

With a "pop", the wide noodles in Wu Yuan's hand flew out and hit Lei Jiayin's big head accurately.

"Good, perfect!" Su Lun's voice with a hint of laughter came from the loudspeaker on the scene. Liu Yifei, who finally couldn't hold it back any longer, immediately burst into laughter, and kept patting Lei Datou's shoulders with his hands.

"Hahahaha, your expression is so funny!"

Although Wu Yuan's appearance is not as comical as Xu Guangtou, for Liu Yifei, seeing such a handsome guy in Haidilao's uniform eating noodles is enough to tickle her funny bone.

Su Lun was also very satisfied with this, and felt that it would be funny to have a handsome guy like Wu Yuan working as a waiter at Haidilao.

The main reason is that the target audience of this movie is still female audiences. It can be regarded as a chick flick, and for female audiences, this Easter egg is a laugh point.

Men like Wu Yuan and Lei Datou didn't think there was anything funny about this. Even when the female crew members covered their mouths and laughed, Lei Datou was a little confused.

Well, "Time Raiders" is a production crew with a relatively large number of female staff members, after all, the director is a female director.

"Is it interesting?" Wu Yuan muttered silently, wiped the flour off his hands, raised his head and looked at the director not far away: "Is this all right?"

"You know what, I haven't acted in a play for many years, I'm not used to it."

"You acted very well!" Su Lun praised him again and again, "Director Wu, I have seen all your works. If you become an actor, you will definitely become an international superstar!"

Well, Wu Yuan had discovered that Su Lun had some kind of fan complex towards him. His image seemed to be very good in Su Lun's heart, as if he had an extra layer of idol filter.

Why haven't you noticed this before?

Wu Yuan smiled awkwardly and chose not to respond. He just gestured: "You guys continue filming. I'll go back to the car and rest for a while."

Of course, Liu Yifei has a nanny car on the crew, and Wu Yuan is also an old acquaintance of this nanny car, so he came to the car to rest with ease.

The filming of the crew would not be finished until around five in the afternoon, and it would not be convenient for him to stay on the scene and watch during this time. After all, in front of Su Lun, Wu Yuan's status as a director was too high. If he was really watched by him while filming, he would feel uncomfortable.

The best choice for him was to wait in the nanny car for Liu Yifei to get off work.

After he left, the crew members gathered in groups of three or four and whispered to each other.

"Director Wu hasn't appeared in a film or TV series for a long time, the last time was in Love Letter!"

"With the gimmick of Director Wu appearing in the film, our movie will definitely be a big hit at the box office!"

"Director Wu is so handsome. He is already in his thirties, but he still looks like a young man in his twenties. He has taken good care of himself."

"I heard that the company is preparing Director Wu's new movie. I wonder if we have a chance~"

"Really……"

At 5pm, the crew finally finished work, and Wu Yuan picked up Liu Yifei who had finished filming and returned to the hotel together. The suite in the five-star hotel was very large, and after returning to the hotel, Wu Yuan sat down on the sofa and waved to Liu Yifei.

"Xixi, I have an invitation for you to guest star. Are you interested in playing?"

Wu Yuan's visit today was not just for a simple visit, he also brought a piece of news to Liu Yifei.

Previously, after Li Xiaoping contacted the crew of "The Wandering Earth" according to Wu Yuan's request, she successfully participated in the investment of this film.

Guo Fan is so short of money!
Finally a film company took the initiative to invest, so of course he accepted the offer and asked for a huge amount, directly asking for 1 million yuan, which was then cut down to 8000 million by Li Xiaoping.

Well, it is 6000 million more than the 2000 million invested by Wu Jing later that Wu Yuan knew about. I don’t know where Guo Fan will spend this money.

What’s even more interesting is that Guo Fan is indeed a master of begging for alms. I don’t know how he talked with Li Xiaoping, but in the end he actually made Li Xiaoping agree to invite Liu Yifei to the crew to guest star in the role of Han Duoduo’s mother.

Originally, the guest star for this role had been decided, and that was Qiuya from "Charlotte's Troubles" - Wang Zhi.

But after Li Xiaoping came to him, Guo Fan immediately took action and wanted to invite Liu Yifei to guest star in this role to add more attention to the movie!
Wang Zhi's guest appearance won't make much of a splash, but if Liu Yifei does, it can become a publicity direction and one of the movie's gimmicks.

After hearing the news, Wu Yuan readily agreed, because he knew that Han Duoduo would become the female lead in "The Wandering Earth 2".

In the next few years, this role will be considered a relatively good female lead in the field of commercial films. After all, the mainland film industry has entered a severe winter after the epidemic. There are simply few films released, and even fewer high-grossing films. "The Wandering Earth 2" is already the best of the best.

In the original time and space, during this cold winter of the film industry, Liu Yifei had to return to the field of television dramas and act in TV dramas honestly, and had no chance to shoot movies.

Although her development in this life is several times better than in the original time and space, there will definitely be no good opportunities in the next few years. It is already very good to leave a gap for "The Wandering Earth 2".

"I'm fine with either." Liu Yifei shrugged. She didn't really care. Li Xiaoping and Wu Yuan had both agreed on her behalf, so she wouldn't have too many objections. It was just a cameo after all, and it would only take a day or two to shoot.

"Okay, then when the filming is finished you can go and make a cameo appearance."

"The Wandering Earth" is already being filmed, with the scheduled start date being May and the official filming to take place in June or July. The main reason is that the leading actress Zhao Jinmai will have time to join the crew during the summer vacation.

However, Liu Yifei's cameo is filmed in the hospital, which can be filmed at any time. It will not affect the overall filming task of the crew. We can just coordinate it when the time comes.

"That's decided for now." Wu Yuan nodded. Just as he was about to talk about something else, his cell phone suddenly rang.

I took out my cell phone and saw that it was a cross-border call from the other side of the ocean.

The caller turned out to be Kevin Feige from Marvel?
Although Wu Yuan filmed Marvel's "Doctor Strange", he did not have much contact with Kevin Feige.

This time should be afternoon in Los Angeles time, right?

He picked up the phone with confusion. Before he could say anything, Kevin Feige on the other end of the phone took the initiative to greet him: "Director Daniel, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"

"Marvel Studios is preparing a new Chinese superhero movie, and we sincerely invite you to direct it."

Wu Yuan frowned and said, "Mr. Kevin Feige, I've been doing pretty well recently. The movie you're talking about is not Shang-Chi, right?" (End of this chapter)
