In the end, Liu Rulan regretfully gave up on the idea.
Xiao He also breathed a sigh of relief.
So the two went straight back to the villa area.
The villa is usually maintained by a professional housekeeper, so even when Xiao He is filming outside, the cleanliness of the house is the same as before Xiao He left, and Xiao He basically doesn't need to worry about anything anymore.
As soon as he entered the house, the living room lights came on. Xiao He casually tossed his car keys aside and lazily lay down on the sofa.
Liu Rulan did not sit down immediately, but went to the wardrobe room and pushed out several suitcases.
"After tomorrow's New Year's Eve event, you'll likely be staying in Province C for the next while. It's very humid there, and the snow-capped mountains are also very cold, so you should prepare your tools in advance."
It was already freezing cold in the desert, and now we're going to the snow-capped mountains. If we don't bring enough warm clothes, we'll really freeze and have problems.
Liu Rulan opened her suitcase, then stood still and started entering a list into her phone, planning to have her assistant come and pack in a bit.
"good."
Xiao He stood up again: "I'll do it myself."
"Okay, I'll have Xiao Chen check it for you again."
Liu Rulan confirmed the schedule with Xiao He again: "Tomorrow morning is an event on Banana Video, in the afternoon it's on Hunan TV, and in the evening it's a live gala on Tencent Video."
"--The day after tomorrow is the last day of this year."
Liu Rulan closed her phone screen and looked at Xiao He seriously: "I haven't arranged anything for you today. You can do whatever you want. After the New Year, 'Yu Ye 2' and 'The Phantom Thief Alliance 2' will enter the promotion period one after another. After you finish filming in C Province, you will be busy again."
"Sumi 2" was filmed together with "Sumi 1", but it was split into two seasons. The first season aired at the beginning of this year, so the second season will air around January or February after the new year. As a Lunar New Year film, "The Phantom Thieves 2" will naturally be released during the Lunar New Year period.
Xiao He sighed, "Time flies so fast."
It seemed like Xiao He didn't have many projects left, but now it looks like two more of his works are about to enter the promotional period...
Sure enough, time flew by once I joined the film crew.
-
The next day, Xiao He went to several venues to participate in today's activities.
Because the afternoon's gala recording was delayed, Xiao He was the last to arrive at the live gala that evening.
Fortunately, his status has increased significantly, so even though he was among the last few to enter, not many people said anything. After walking the red carpet, he entered the venue smoothly.
Since it was a special event hosted by Tencent Video, the organizers arranged for Xiao He to be cast members from dramas that were released on Tencent Video this year, such as Yuan Sitong and Li Haoxuan from "Yu Ye". Other actors that ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ Xiao He knew were assigned to other positions.
Xiao He greeted the others as usual, then asked Yuan Sitong, "Where's Sister Xinya? Isn't she attending the party this time?"
"I think Sister Xinya is filming on set."
Yuan Sitong said casually.
"oh."
Xiao He nodded.
"By the way, you probably already know that the second season of'Sumi' is scheduled to launch at the end of January, right?"
"Yes, my agent told me."
"So you knew that the'Sumi' manga officially entered its final chapter recently, right?"
"I really didn't notice that." Xiao He said in surprise, "Director Yan is pretty fast, he really updated to the finale within a year."
The reason why we didn't film all of "Yu Ye" in one go was because Yan Shaohan, the author and director, hadn't even finished drawing it himself.
However, Xiao He originally thought that, given Yan Shaohan's lazy personality, the comic's ending would be delayed for ages.
I didn't expect that it would be finished so quickly after I said I would finish it.
That's really impressive.
This efficiency is unlike Yan Shaohan's usual level.
"Yes, I heard that the last episode has been finished, but Director Zhuang told him to wait a bit and finish updating it around the time of the promotion for 'Yuya 2'. That way, the comic and the TV series can complement each other and both gain popularity."
Xiao He gave a thumbs up: "As expected of Director Zhuang."
This strategy of cross-promoting traffic between IPs is truly ingenious.
Have you heard anything about the third season of "Sumiya"?
Yuan Sitong shook her head regretfully: "I don't know either. Yan Shaohan was so busy working on the finale that he was sick of it. He's been playing video games in seclusion lately. Director Zhuang is also busy with the theatrical release of 'The Phantom Thieves 2'. It's unlikely that the final season will be scheduled anytime soon."
Of course, if the second season of "Yu Ye" can maintain its high popularity and high traffic, then given Zhuang Hongyi's personality of not getting up early for nothing, he will definitely assemble a new crew as quickly as possible.
"Ah, right, right."
Yuan Sitong covered her mouth this time, "Do you know that Zhao Qinyuan successfully switched jobs?"
"Um?"
Before Xiao He could react, Li Haoxuan couldn't help but say in broken Chinese, "What gossip are you two secretly chatting about again? Why did you keep it from me this time?"
Just now, Li Haoxuan was listening to Yuan Sitong and Xiao He's conversation. Although he still couldn't understand everything, he roughly knew that they were talking about "Yu Ye".
As a result, Yuan Sitong suddenly covered her mouth and lowered her voice, and Li Haoxuan subconsciously felt that she was talking badly about him again.
Yuan Sitong glared at Li Haoxuan with annoyance: "What's it to you? Xiao He and I are just friends, of course we have to keep it a secret. You don't even know us, why are you listening to so much gossip? You wouldn't understand anyway."
Damn it, this foreigner is learning Chinese faster and faster. Maybe when she joins the cast of the third season of "Yoo-soo", she won't be able to curse at Lee Ho-hyun in Chinese in front of him anymore, because he can really understand her.
—Oh, it's not that I stopped cursing him to his face later.
Lee Ho-hyun didn't understand what "cricket" meant and kept asking, "What's 'eat'? Are you guys going to go out to eat behind my back later?"
Yuan Sitong was speechless, but her desire to share gossip made her too lazy to argue with this person. She ignored Li Haoxuan, who was trying to peek over, and continued to whisper to Xiao He: "He has a really bad falling out with his old company! Just you wait and see, there will definitely be some bad news about him soon."
Xiao He raised an eyebrow, then continued to press, "Where did he jump to? This dirt shouldn't be able to get out of hand, right?"
What Xiao He was most concerned about was whether the fight over there would affect his "Chasing the Wind Record". He didn't want the commotion to be too big and ruin his work.
Although "The Legend of Chasing the Wind" has already finished airing, no actor would be happy if their work were suddenly implicated and ended up as a 404 (404 error) and returned as a newcomer without any new works.
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
Yuan Sitong winked and said, "He jumped ship to Hanbei Film Industry in Beijing, so Taidong doesn't dare to be too arrogant."
One is in Beijing, and the other is in Shanghai. Their main circles will definitely be different in the future. Tai Dong will mostly just release some negative information symbolically and won't go too far.
"Hanbei Pictures? They've got some pretty impressive connections."
Xiao He also did not expect that Zhao Qinyuan would have such luck.
This is Hanbei Film Industry; I think I just heard about it somewhere not long ago—
Xiao He thought about it carefully for a moment, and then it dawned on him.
oh!
Zhao Qinyuan has now switched jobs to work for the same company as Ren Yibai!
That is, the male lead in "Mistaken Identity", Ren Yibai!
Wow, this circle is full of familiar faces!
