Chapter 75: Lost in the sea

Chapter 75: Lost in the sea
“Still no phone call!”

Li Qing sighed, and lay down on the table without any energy, not wanting to talk anymore.

Several days had passed since he left his business card for Deng Siya, the stand-in actress who fit the role of Bai Xuemei.

As a result, no call has come so far. At present, except for the role of Bai Xuemei, the other candidates have been preliminarily decided by the crew.

Li Qing had already declined several times using the excuse that the female lead was very important and that he had to consider carefully, hoping to wait for Deng Siya's call.

Unfortunately, God did not wish.

"Is it really what you expected?"

Su Qianqian sat opposite Li Qing, sipping milk tea and asked curiously, "It's been so long since we heard from him, maybe he has no interest in participating at all."

"So you'd better give up as soon as possible. It's best to quickly decide on the female lead from the reserve list so that we can release the film at the end of the summer vacation."

"Otherwise, when school starts, it will be very troublesome to arrange the film, and the spending power of the student group is lacking."

"The box office situation will be even worse by then, and the movie directed by Xu Longbo that you mentioned earlier, Blind Love, seems to be constantly being hyped up."

"And the theme is advertised as reality + love, and it also involves some things that reflect social issues. If you just look at these, it is a bit similar to our "Blind Heart"."

Of course Li Qing knew all these situations, because the crew had already completed most of the preparations and were just waiting for the actors to arrive and start filming immediately.

He was a little annoyed because Deng Siya still hadn't sent him any message.

He didn't want to destroy the classics of his previous life. If he made a film that was not entirely consistent, Li Qing would really feel sorry for the director of his previous life.

It's unacceptable that we messed up the ready-made template.

Compared with the deserted crew of "Blind Heart", Xu Longbo's "Blind Love" crew is working in full swing.

Not long ago, the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the "Blind Love" crew was live-broadcasted in a high-profile manner, and Li Qing also entered the live-broadcast room to take a look.

Apart from anything else, Xu Longbo is still somewhat famous, both among directors and movie fans.

Of course, it's not a good reputation, I'm just simply curious about his latest bad drama.

In short, people who enjoy themselves watch the joke.

The clown plays poker, and the big and small jokers are blown up directly!

After all, black fans are also fans and can also bring popularity. At least they made the live broadcast room of Xu Longbo's "Blind Love" ribbon-cutting ceremony rush to the recommendation list in a short period of time, although it quickly fell out afterwards.

Although Xu Longbo was a little angry during the process and almost started swearing at each other, he looked very angry.

But the reputation of "Blind Love" has indeed spread and attracted the attention of movie fans.

As for how many people will go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch the movie and contribute to the box office, it is unknown.

At the same time, some media outlets, some of which were not sure whether they were contacted by Xu Longbo or were just there for fun, also published articles.

This made "Blind Love", which is known as a tragic story, a little out of the circle.

In contrast, no one knows about the drama "Blind Heart" with an extremely similar title. Apart from the recruitment advertisements put up by the film and television studios, movie fans have basically no channels to learn about it, so there is naturally no question of its popularity.

There is too little money, and Li Qing and his team have no extra funds to use for advertising and promotion, so they can only make plans later.

"Oh, you don't understand." Li Qing didn't say much. In his previous life, "Blind Mountain" was known as a thought-provoking realist work. Even director Li Yang said that its original intention was to combat the trafficking of women.

But now, the time and place have changed. Li Qing does not expect "Blind Heart" to reach the same level as "Blind Mountain" in his previous life, but he cannot destroy it either.

The casting of the heroine Bai Xuemei must be of paramount importance!
Li Qing made up his mind if Deng Siya hadn't contacted him before tonight.

He took the initiative, even if it made Deng Siya annoyed, and persuaded her to play the female lead Bai Xuemei again.

As for why he was obsessed with Deng Siya, it involved some things from Li Qing's previous life's "Blind Mountain".

Su Qianqian didn't understand even after he told her, so Li Qing didn't explain the reason to them and just fooled them by saying that Deng Siya fit the image he imagined.

After Li Qing learned more about Deng Siya, he believed it even more.

Su Qianqian did not continue talking, but looked down at the menu.

Today, Li Qing, who had been busy for several days, finally found some free time to take Su Qianqian out to play.

Li Qing felt a little guilty for always bothering Lin Xiaoyu.

And now their positions have been swapped. Li Qing has taken over Lin Xiaoyu's previous job, that is, the producer of the "Blind Heart" crew. He is mainly responsible for off-site affairs, that is, all aspects from planning to the final release. By the way, he also works part-time as the deputy director of the "Blind Heart" crew, responsible for coordinating Lin Xiaoyu's filming work.

Yes, after discussing it, Li Qing decided to transfer the position of director from himself who had no knowledge of shooting techniques to the professional Lin Xiaoyu. This would make things easier for Li Qing, as he only needed to tell Lin Xiaoyu the general storyboards he remembered.

Then Lin Xiaoyu would go and shoot the film, thus avoiding the problem of Li Qing wasting time due to lack of understanding.

Therefore, Lin Xiaoyu did not come out with them this time, but stayed in the Qingyuan studio, thinking alone about how to express the contents of the script vividly, how to communicate with the actors, etc.

Therefore, Li Qing finally had time to take care of Su Qianqian, whom he would throw to Lin Xiaoyu from time to time.

Take Su Qianqian to the nearby area to exercise and relax.

As for their lunch, of course, Li Qing wrote to take care of Su Qianqian, but actually he wanted to try a roadside restaurant.

However, according to the introduction, this roadside restaurant has its own characteristics. It is said that it can perform music for customers to enjoy and welcomes children.

The positioning is somewhat similar to that of a family restaurant, just like some places have childcare areas, and it also serves as a place to take care of children.

It can give parents a sense of relief and help them relax, alleviating the problem of some parents being too busy.

Well, Li Qing just wanted to listen to some music and definitely didn’t want to try the latest Happy Music Set Meal.

In fact, Li Qing felt that Su Qianqian carried her guitar with her all day long, so she would be happier eating in a place with music.

After careful calculation, Li Qing found that he really rarely took care of Su Qianqian, and whenever there was something, he asked Lin Xiaoyu to take care of it.

"Have you ordered? After we finish eating, I'll take you to... go to the beach. How about that?" Li Qing rubbed Su Qianqian's breasts and asked the child-like Su Qianqian gently.

Su Qianqian nodded calmly. She felt that Li Qingzhen didn't need to treat her the same way as he treated a young man every time, although it was not easy to say it out loud.

Time passes within this range.

At this time, the performance is about to begin...
