After putting away the script of "A World Without Thieves", Zhang Yuan, together with Boss Cai, went to the entrance of Hengdian Film and Television Base to welcome Liu Qianqian and her group who were about to return to the crew.

Boss Cai became interested in Liu Xixi ever since he watched Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

Her idea was very simple. She would make a movie first as a sweet treat, and then see the other party's attitude to see if long-term cooperation could be achieved. If the situation was extremely good, it would be even better if she could bring Liu Xixi to Tangren's team.

This is Boss Cai's advance arrangement for the position of top female star that will be vacant as Sun Li is about to get married and take care of her husband and children.

If that was the case, then why did she treat Zhang Yuan's junior sister Liu Shishi equally, training her, giving her roles to act in, and hoping to bring her under her wing?

In addition to his narcissistic personality and the fact that he thinks Liu Shishi looks like himself, Boss Cai actually has some ideas in mind.

It is extremely difficult to bring Liu Xixi under your command and make her your top sister.

If you want to attract someone, the easiest thing is to find something you can give that the other person wants, so that you can hit it off.

But what about Liu Qianqian?
Both parents are from cadre families and have good backgrounds.

Although not as good as her mother, she has received top-notch educational resources since childhood and has no lack of talent and training.

With the financial support of Boss Chen behind the scenes, we have no shortage of money.

They have everything they need, what can you give them?
In fact, Liu Qianqian only lacks one thing, and that is film and television resources.

However, resources can be exchanged for background and money, otherwise how could she enter the Beijing Film Academy and get the two roles in "The Story of a Noble Family" and "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

Therefore, Liu Qianqian is of course the first choice, and Liu Shishi is also an excellent alternative.

Boss Cai knows what's going on.

This was also one of the reasons why she agreed to Liu Qianqian's departure from the group, and it was also the reason why she was personally welcoming her with a smile.

Zhang Yuan glanced at Boss Cai, who had kind eyes and a smile... although the smile seemed a little fake, and thought to himself, he is the boss after all, so he still has some pretense.

After a while, An Yixuan, Liu Pinyan, Wang Lujiang, Peng Yuyan and others also came to join in the fun and stood in a row.

"Hey, it seems to be coming." Wang Lujiang loves gossip, so he has sharp ears and eyes and saw it from a distance.

I saw a young girl with black hair falling to her waist like a waterfall, standing tall and slender, walking slowly towards the crowd.

Along the way, as she passed by, she attracted the sidelong glances of many men of marriageable age or not on the roadside. After all, there are many guys who are old but young at heart.

When they got close enough to see each other's faces clearly, the girl was startled at first, then she quickened her pace, and her steps were much lighter and more cheerful than before.

"Eh?" The sharp-eyed and sharp-eared teacher Wang Lujiang murmured in confusion: "That's not right..."

Zhang Yuan also tilted his head and squinted his eyes to watch carefully.

"That's not right..."

I was wondering why only one person came. Shouldn't Liu Qianqian and Liu Xiaoli come together?

So, the ones who came here alone were not the mother and daughter at all!
"Zhao Linger didn't pick up the phone, but Long Kui did..." Zhang Yuan didn't think much about it, and immediately put on a smile, waved his hand, and quickly walked up to her.

"You come to see me, and I come to see you too." Junior sister Liu Shishi smiled and dragged a small pink suitcase behind her. Zhang Yuan immediately took it.

Boss Cai was also surprised that the first choice did not come, but the bottom line did.

"Are you here alone?" Zhang Yuan took a look at him. He was full of energy and in a good mood. It was obvious that no trouble had arisen since his last disturbance.

"The crew has finished filming and is going back to the capital. I thought I'd come see you first." While speaking, Liu Shishi kept looking at him with her sparkling eyes, which were full of unspeakable longing.

That night Zhang Yuan promised to go back to see her after returning to the capital.

But she couldn't wait any longer and came to my house.

It seems that the "stamp" given to her to stay in the small garden that day had a strong lasting effect.

"Junior brother, how did you guess that I was coming and come to greet me?" Liu Shishi asked blankly.

Zhang Yuan: …

Mr. Yuan is right, his intelligence is no different from that of a flounder.

You can't even tell this, how could it be to welcome you!
But the other person's eyes were full of expectations, so he was embarrassed to point it out.

"Of course, we have telepathy, right?"

"Yeah, hey hey..."

He led her to the crew members and introduced them one by one.

"My senior sister, Liu Shishi, is a top student at Beijing Dance Academy."

"Hello."

"Hello, senior sister."

"Senior sister is so beautiful..." This is what Liu Pinyan said.

Zhang Yuan's face, Liu Shishi's temperament and appearance, plus Boss Cai's enthusiasm.

In just a few minutes, this "outsider" of the crew became familiar with everyone.

Soon after, not far away.

"Xixi, please walk slower." Liu Xiaoli complained with a smile.

"I'm so excited to see my friends from the crew again!" Liu Qianqian expressed her emotions bluntly.

The mother and daughter each dragged a large suitcase and walked forward.

She wasn't very happy during her time on the island.

I didn't make any new friends, I didn't learn anything new, I just filmed a movie.

"What kind of expression should I use when I see him later?" Liu Qianqian thought with narrowed eyes.

"Smiling as always."

"I should just pretend to ignore him and see how he reacts."

"Or I could invite him to have a meal alone. After all, he was the one who helped me negotiate with the crew for us to go to Formosa."

Along the way, she thought of more than 800 possibilities and made a plan.

"I'm back!" She saw a bunch of familiar faces from a distance. She was much smarter than Liu Shishi, and she understood at a glance that everyone came to pick her up.

With two loose ponytails, she looked innocent and sweet. She ran towards everyone, leaving her mother, who warned her to be careful not to fall, far behind.

"Did you miss me..." She ran to the crowd with a smile, and was about to greet everyone one by one, but she found that next to Zhang Yuan, whom she had been thinking about day and night, there was a young girl with a squinting look in her eyes.

Ok?
Ok?
Almost at the same time, the two girls named Liu discovered each other's existence.

Liu Qianqian sniffed.

Liu Shishi raised her eyebrows and blinked.

"He comes with ill intentions." The junior sister is not very intelligent, but has a strong sixth sense, which complements her.

"You are the one who is coming!" Liu Qianqian glared at him.

At this time, Boss Cai handed over a bouquet of lilies that he had prepared long ago, which eased the somewhat weird atmosphere.

"Let's go. I have booked a welcoming banquet. Let's eat together and then start work in the afternoon." Boss Cai led everyone forward.

"Yixuan, Pinyan!" Liu Qianqian shouted angrily to the two military advisors who were walking on the left and right with smiles on their faces as they followed Zhang Yuan forward.

"We agreed that you are not allowed to talk to him when I'm not around."

She had originally planned to reconcile with Zhang Yuan, but now the fire in her heart is so strong that it can even be used for barbecue.

"Can I quit the alliance?" Liu Pinyan timidly raised his hand to report.

"I'm quitting too." An Yixuan was just playing around and wasn't serious.

"You two traitors!"

Liu Qianqian stamped her legs and then limped forward.

Why do you limp? Because you get numb when you stomp on it.

Because of the unexpected factor of Junior Sister, this welcoming banquet could not be described as peaceful and harmonious, but rather full of hostility.

Zhang Yuan also felt uncomfortable.

The most troublesome thing is when the "masters" meet, and I dare not move at all among them.

Liu Qianqian: Stare~
Liu Shishi: Stare back~
In this way, he felt like a thorn in his back, a fishbone stuck in his throat, and very uncomfortable while eating the whole meal.

Zhang Yuan: My life has been like walking on thin ice. Do you think I can ever make it to the other side?
Wang Lujiang, Peng Yuyan, and Hu Ge: You deserve it for letting you mess around with other girls!

Liu Pinyan: Eat.

I finally made it through and it was time for afternoon filming.

After careful analysis, Zhang Yuan decided to take good care of the junior sister first.

Firstly, she had the responsibilities assigned to her by Mr. Yuan Kuocheng, and secondly, she would only stay for one day and her family in the capital would urge her to go back.

Choose the lesser of two evils, choose the greater of two benefits.

Liu Qianqian's side can only lose a white and soft girl.

But if I hurt my senior sister's feelings and went back to cry in front of Mr. Yuan... considering the old man's doting and protective personality, he would probably write a book to scold me.

On the set, Zhang Yuan was acting in front of the camera while Liu Shishi stood beside him with her hands clasped in front of her chest, looking at him with admiration.

"Junior brother, your acting is really good."

"You look so handsome in ancient costumes."

"It's so nice to talk."

"That Zhao Linger is so annoying!" After finishing work in the evening, Zhang Yuan said hello to everyone else and had dinner alone with the junior sister. He also took her to visit the night view of Hengdian Film and Television City.

Originally, he had a play in the evening, and when Boss Cai saw that it was for Liu Shishi, he approved his leave without saying a word.

Liu Qianqian looked at the backs of the two people leaving, and the loneliness and solitude that appeared every night when she saw the treasure island appeared in her eyes again.

After returning to the hotel, it was her mother Liu Xiaoli who noticed that something was wrong with her.

"Baby, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"Mom, I don't want to act awkwardly anymore."

“I just want to do one thing well at a time.”

Liu Qianqian found that everything changed after she was away for only 15 days.

Not only did his two military officers sided with Zhang Yuan, but a new senior sister also appeared out of nowhere.

"Okay..." After hearing what she said, Liu Xiaoli not only did not criticize or lobby her by saying "time is tight", "you should become famous as early as possible", "you should seize the opportunity", but she smiled and agreed.

She thinks it’s good that her daughter is independent and has her own ideas.

Liu Qianqian held her chin with one hand and spoke softly.

"I have been the center of attention since I was little, but now I realize that I am just a star."

"What?" Liu Xiaoli frowned.

"Nothing, I was just kidding." Liu Qianqian fell on the bed and said, "I'm tired and want to sleep."

"Okay." Liu Xiaoli stood up and walked towards her room, looking back before leaving.

"Xixi, it seems... she has matured a little bit."

Liu Xiaoli thought of today's welcoming scene, the group of girls surrounding Zhang Yuan, and what Xixi had just said, and sighed.

“It’s easy to attract people because of its charm, but the downside is that it’s easy to attract too many people.”

"Hey, let her grow up on her own. Just make sure she doesn't suffer any loss."

The next day, Liu Qianqian came to the crew looking a little jaded. When she looked up, she found that Zhang Yuan also looked a little jaded.

"Woo...what's wrong with him?" Liu Qianqian looked around and found that the "visitor" was not there. Her mood suddenly improved a lot.

Why is Zhang Yuan Yu Yu?

After taking the junior sister to visit the night view of Hengdian last night, Zhang Yuan took her back to the hotel room.

Last time in Suzhou, time was tight, so I just stamped the document and measured the other person's development with my hands.

This time he had plenty of time and the location was right, so he thought...

"If my senior sister can still walk tomorrow, I lose!"

The junior sister was very cooperative and allowed him to do whatever he wanted shyly.

Down jackets, sweaters, autumn clothes, underwear.

Outer pants, woolen pants, long johns, underwear... huh?

When they were just one step away from cleaning it out, they discovered a despairing fact.

My aunt is blocking the way!
The bloody battle was really indecent, and in the end they just slept in each other's arms all night without accomplishing anything.

I don’t know whether the junior sister fell asleep or not, but he didn’t sleep the whole night.

He raised his head and glanced at Liu Qianqian who was not far away. As soon as she saw him turning his head to look at her, she immediately looked away.

he thought.

This is useless.

I don't know if my aunt blocked the way.

It is certain that Aunt Liu is blocking the way.

Putting aside his annoyance and devoting himself to his work, he took out the script of "A World Without Thieves" again, read it over and over again, and smiled slightly.

"I see."

He immediately picked up his phone and called Director Feng.

"Hey, Zhang Yuan, how do you like the script?" Director Feng was having dinner at home, with his daughter and Xu Fan sitting next to him.

"I've seen it, and I think I understand where the problem lies."

"Okay, tell me."

"The two thieves and Uncle Li, the great thief, all escaped legal punishment in the end. That's not good."

Director Feng nodded vigorously.

He is really smart and can see the crux of the problem at a glance.

"So I think Uncle Li must be arrested."

"There's more." Director Feng was not surprised by the change.

"Also, the endings of the hero and heroine need to be changed."

Director Feng was still not surprised.

"Are you talking about having them all arrested or killed like Uncle Li?"

Feng Xiaogang knew that this was an option, but he didn't want to do it because he felt the ending was too ordinary and unappealing.

"No, what I mean is, one dead and one alive." Zhang Yuan said steadily.

"Who dies?"

"The man dies, the woman dies, and the man lives. It's too cruel and hard for the audience to accept."

Oh, it’s good to consider the audience’s acceptance.

"The woman survived. Did she escape or get caught?"

"Don't run away, don't get caught, live well."

"Ah?" Director Feng asked in confusion.

"That's impossible. As a criminal, she can only have these two endings." Director Feng replied affirmatively.

"As a criminal, yes, but what about as a mother?"

"What do you mean?" Director Feng seemed to understand a little.

"Let that female thief get pregnant!" Zhang Yuan replied word by word.

Boom!
Feng Xiaogang felt as if something exploded in his head.

It blew up the train of thought that had been blocked for a long time!
Yup!

After saying that, he slammed the chopsticks in his hand on the table, making a loud bang.

"Xiaogang, what are you doing!" Xu Fan complained.

"What Zhang Yuan said was not good, you can't slam the table."

Xu Fan was still very polite to him and was trying to make amends for him.

"I'm not bad, I'm great!"

"what happened?"

"Let that female thief get pregnant!" Director Feng repeated Zhang Yuan's words.

"Who's pregnant?" Xu Fan was shocked, thinking that her husband had gotten into trouble outside.

Just look at Xu Fan's subconscious reaction when she heard the word "pregnancy", and you can tell how romantic Director Feng is outside.

"It's a character, that female thief is pregnant!"

"now it's right."

"I always felt that the story of two big thieves protecting a silly boy for his dream lacked dramatic conflict and rationality."

"But if the female thief is pregnant, then these two thieves will have a reason to retire."

“All subsequent changes also had a basic motivation.”

"It's all right, everything is going well!"

Xu Fan finally reacted and replied with a smile.

"Look, Zhang Yuan is still the most capable one."

"The sooner you find him, the better."

"Yes, yes, yes. If I had found him earlier, I wouldn't have gone through the trouble of submitting it for review six or seven times." Director Feng stood up excitedly and walked around the room.

"Just this one particle brings the entire chessboard to life. How brilliant!"

Xu Fan still sided with him and mentioned it immediately.

"Since they have helped me so much, don't forget to arrange a role for me."

"It can't be just a few words again, I still want more even if you are shameless."

"Okay, okay, don't bring up that topic." Director Feng felt a little embarrassed when he thought about the fact that he only assigned four modal particles to Zhang Yuan in "Cell Phone".

"I understand. When the filming starts this time, I'll find him a good role!" (End of this chapter)
