The crew faced immense work pressure, especially the frequent late nights.
Even though many people on set were new to the film crew, the filming was already proceeding smoothly. Many people didn't even have time to rest before the whole night had quietly passed. The only consolation was that the filming progressed unexpectedly fast tonight.
By the time I finished get off work, a faint light was already appearing on the horizon of the town.
Everyone is getting ready to go back and rest.
The film crew's accommodation was arranged directly in a hotel in the town center, surrounded by the busiest and most prosperous streets. As a result, the crew attracted the attention of some people when they returned.
Only Xiao He did not plan to go back to rest.
Having finally arrived in an unfamiliar environment, he was ready to explore it thoroughly.
Especially in places like Grasse, which is known as the perfume capital, Xiao He, who doesn't like wearing perfume, would definitely not choose to travel there.
So taking advantage of the filming opportunity to come here and have a look around, it's a pretty good publicly funded trip.
Liu Rulan didn't know where Xiao He got so much energy, but after observing Xiao He's mental state for a while, she nodded in agreement: "Just know what you're doing, but don't follow Lu Yuxi's example and drink coffee to keep yourself going."
Lu Yuxi has almost become a typical example within their organization.
This continuation might not necessarily be a matter of life and death, but rather a direct threat to life.
Liu Rulan believed that after what happened, Xiao He would not do such a stupid thing.
Xiao He nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, Sister Liu."
After obtaining his agent's consent, Xiao He left the hotel alone.
One advantage of being in a foreign country is that no one will recognize Xiao He. Even if Xiao He doesn't wear a hat and mask, he won't attract a large crowd. Xiao He also speaks basic French, so he can walk alone on the street here, which is quite pleasant.
After glancing at the road signs at the intersection, Xiao He randomly chose a park and slowly walked towards it.
Meanwhile, on the largest video platform abroad, video clips of Xiao He's birthday party stage play received a large number of views and likes.
Thanks to the immense popularity of "Law of the Jungle," many foreign netizens still remember the actor named Xiao He. When they see this actor again, who is completely different from Xu Ning, they can't help but exclaim in surprise.
【I think this actor's name is Xiao He? He played Xu Ning so cool! I didn't expect his acting to be so good; he can seamlessly switch between twelve different characters, amazing!】
【I've heard that in mysterious Eastern countries, there's a practice of "spirit possession." Could this Xiao He be one of those?】
【Wow, ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) that's terrifying! How can his eyes change so instantly? This actor is amazing!】
【Haha, let me introduce you. This is Xiao He, a Chinese metaphysician, best known for his possession performances. You ignorant foreigners shouldn't be so surprised.】
【What? So Xiao He is that powerful in your country?】
【Yes, I'm telling you, never mess with Xiao He. He has blood on his hands. I heard he once scared an actor to death on set, and almost hacked an actor to death during a performance. We all know his family is involved in the underworld, and we're terrified of him.】
【Oh my god, he's that amazing?!】
【Okay, okay, is everyone promoting my Brother Xiao like this?】
What does Xiao He's family do? I really like him! If I could come to China, I definitely wanted to meet him.
【Xiao He's family has connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles. His father is an official, and his mother manages a large group of people. These are ruthless individuals who would receive preferential treatment from the police even if they went out to commit violence. They are extremely powerful figures in our area, and no one dares to mess with them.】
【Wow, isn't that like us, a gangster's son? I like him even more now! What roles has he played before? I definitely have to watch!】
【...I'm Chinese, so those of you upstairs should shut up. You're really getting fooled by these foreigners...】
【This guy has connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles. I only have one brother, Brother Xiao. Please don't send him to jail. (laughing and crying emoji)】
【Stop praising him, stop praising him. Praise Xiao Ge's acting skills instead. The operations team would faint if they saw these comments.】
Back home, Lin Cheng almost choked on his lunch when he saw the news.
"So, you mean that in the eyes of foreigners, Xiao He is now a powerful gangster prince with influence in both the legitimate and underworld circles?"
Lin Cheng put down his chopsticks with trembling hands, his face full of disbelief.
"That's not right, that's not the direction our overseas marketing takes!"
Xiao He's "Twelve Mirrors" has been successfully launched overseas, and we were ready to see the feedback from foreign audiences. However, unexpectedly, Chinese netizens, who love to watch the drama unfold, also followed suit and steered the conversation in the comments section, misleading a large group of foreigners.
In particular, some idiot described Xiao He's father, a civil servant, as a high-ranking official. Okay, let's leave that aside for now. In the end, they even portrayed Xiao He's mother as a gang leader with many henchmen.
Upon closer inspection, ah, it was the teacher.
He said he could kill someone, oh, so he's a student.
When Lin Cheng saw this comment, he was almost speechless at the netizen's wild imagination.
Most importantly, even though the words were so outrageous, those naive foreigners actually believed them. It's hard to say whether it was because Xiao He's face was indeed very convincing, fulfilling their "wonderful" fantasy of an Eastern gangster's son.
Sometimes people feel really powerless, even helpless.
"This, this should also be considered a marketing topic that generates buzz, right?"
Xiao Zhou, the operations manager in charge of the report, asked, forcing a smile.
"Since Brother Xiao and his group are abroad, there's been a long window of opportunity in China. We can use this hot topic for a period of time for marketing, and the results should be pretty good."
It's going to be tough on Brother Xiao; he might really be mistaken for a "gangster prince" while he's abroad...
It has to be said that those foreigners are quite admiring of the strong. As soon as they heard that Xiao He was the heir of a domestic gang, the number of followers on Xiao He's overseas account has started to skyrocket again.
Only those who knew the cause and effect hesitated to speak, yet remained silent.
It's... hard to judge!
"Let's continue to observe the overseas public opinion trends," Lin Cheng said. "Sister Liu and the others should be resting now. I'll inform them this afternoon."
"good."
The only option for the operation team is to continue maintaining the online buzz.
...
foreign.
Xiao He wandered around outside for a while, and then regretfully found that it was too early. Many attractions and shops had not yet opened. Moreover, the street scenes here were nothing special after a while. They were very typical Franco-style buildings, and he had lost the novelty he had at the beginning.
However, what Xiao He noticed was that there were many beautiful flags hanging on the street signs and various shops, which looked quite festive, as if there was going to be some kind of big event soon.
Xiao He simply returned to the hotel around lunchtime, and also brought lunch for a few members of his team.
While the rest of the team was still asleep, Xiao He sat in his room to continue studying the script for "Ford v Ferrari 7".
He had only been sitting down for a short while when he received a call from Lin Cheng.
After Lin Cheng gave a brief account of what had happened, Xiao He rubbed his temples and, unusually, laughed out of anger.
"Me? The heir to a mafia gang?"
"Me? I'm involved in both the legitimate and underworld circles?"
