Chapter 17 Chapter 17
Luo Zhangwei is the director of "The Apostle" and is also a famous chatterbox in the circle. He talked about a toast for more than 20 minutes, and from the film's idea to the post-promotion to the box office ambitions, there are a lot of chores. But he is very prestigious in the circle and has won the Best Director Awards at several influential international film festivals. So the main creators can only listen obediently and receive warm applause from time to time.
But among the many faces that were worshipful, respectful, flattering, or smiling, there was a face that was Xiao Jiashu, who had just entered the industry. In order to catch up with the auspicious time, the opening ceremony was scheduled to be held at 12:30, just as the meal time; it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone was familiar with each other, chatting, and making friends with each other, and then rushed to the hotel. It was already past 7:30 pm. Xiao Jiashu was used to having dinner at 12:30 noon and 6:30 pm. In other words, throughout the day today, he had not eaten anything except the bowl of white porridge in the morning, and his stomach was long gone.
He also wanted to smile and wait for the meal calmly, but when his stomach was empty and his face was filled with delicious food, he couldn't do it! He looked at a plate of roast chicken not far away, imagined that he suddenly stood up and stuffed the roast chicken into the director's mouth, making him stop talking. Well, this seemed much more comfortable, and he could endure it for another five minutes.
He nodded, then covered his stomach, and did not pay attention to the fact that the actor Ji, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly glanced at him with a strange expression, as if he wanted to laugh, but he controlled himself again.
"...I wish the film a lot." The director finally concluded and everyone stood up one after another.
Xiao Jiashu almost couldn't wait to raise the wine glass, and touched Huang Meixuan and Huang Zijin beside him, then picked up a piece of duck meat and put it in the bowl. Huang Meixuan quietly pulled his sleeve, but he ignored it, and dug a few bites of rice before looking over, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Huang, hasn't the director finished speaking? Can you eat it?"
"Drink a drink with director, Brother Ji and Brother Heng, go quickly." Huang Meixuan said while pouring wine for Young Master Xiao.
Shi Tingheng and Ji Mian are the male leads and second male leads in this movie, and they are also big names at the level of actors. The younger generation should toast them a cup, and whether they drink it or not is another matter. Although Xiao Jiashu has been abroad for many years, he is not unfamiliar with Chinese table etiquette. He picked up the wine glass and toasted the director. Shi Tingheng and Ji Mian had nothing else to say except "Take more care".
In contrast, other newcomers walked to the three of them one after another, toasting and pleasing, and compliments came out one after another, making Young Master Xiao look more and more arrogant and rude.
Huang Meixuan had a headache, but she had no choice but to stare at Young Master Xiao, who was burying his head and then asked in a low voice, "What are you eating?"
"Spicy chicken." Xiao Jiashu raised his head, his lips were bright red, and a few bright tears were hanging on his eyes.
"Who is going to let you eat spicy food? Sister Xue said that your mouth ulcers are cured, and the anger has not yet subsided! Eat vegetables!" Huang Meixuan said while picking up a lot of vegetables and putting them into Young Master Xiao's bowl.
Xiao Jiashu moved the vegetables aside and continued to eat spicy chicken. After eating, he stretched his chopsticks into the boiled meat slices. After drinking white porridge for half a month, he only wanted to eat some heavy-tasting things. Seeing that he was disobedient, Huang Meixuan picked up a clean spoon and knocked on the back of his hand. He screamed, but he still strongly picked up the boiled meat slices and ate them in one bite.
"Why are you disobedient? Be careful, I will tell Sister Xue!" Huang Meixuan said intimidating.
Xiao Jiashu smiled flatteringly at her, and then continued to extend his "sinful" hand to the spicy shrimp not far away. Huang Meixuan was so angry that he knocked on his back with a spoon, but he couldn't stop it. The interaction between the two was very intimate, unlike the agent and artist, but more like the elders and juniors in the family. Everyone saw it, and they didn't mind Xiao Jiashu's behavior.
Without a strong background, the legendary demon Huang Meixuan can serve Xiao Jiashu like a little ancestor? It's impossible! Since he has a background, he can't afford to offend him. If he likes to show off, he can let him go. Thinking of this, several main creators began to speak for Xiao Jiashu, but only got him a few perfunctory words, and he felt so sad that he was so angry that he didn't dare to reveal it.
Xiao Jiashu was very edible and even stretched out chopsticks to spicy dishes. Huang Meixuan was so angry that she glared at him. Her younger brother Huang Zijin suddenly laughed softly, took the initiative to scooped a spoonful of Mapo tofu for Young Master Xiao, and put it in his ear and said, "Eat, just let go and eat, you will feel comfortable when you are big tomorrow morning."
"Ah?" Xiao Jiashu looked at him blankly.
"Tomorrow morning, big size." Huang Zijin repeated, but the volume was very low, and no one heard it except Young Master Xiao and his sister Huang Meixuan.
Xiao Jiashu has a different point than ordinary people, that is, his imagination is very rich. When others say something casually, he can use his imagination to construct it into the richest picture. At this moment, the scene of him sitting on the toilet, holding his face red with force, but he can't pull it out. After more than ten minutes of inhumane torture, he finally got out of the way, but a ball of fire was pulled out. The flames rushed out of the toilet, burning his hair. What's wrong?
