Chapter 37: Chen Kai Ge’s face turned green when he saw Chen Hong hugging Taiping Princess! 【Requesting data】
In another timeline, Chen Hong’s face wasn't an oval face or a melon-seed face!
It was round!
It was a special kind of round, square face!
Her jawline was wide, not square, but round, making her face appear round with a low center of gravity!
This made her face and features match very harmoniously!
But this kind of bone structure was far from the top tier!
Her bone structure instead became her shortcoming!
It greatly suppressed her looks!
But on Blue Star, the flaw in her bone structure was made up for!
A typical oval face, noble, elegant, and classy, she looked exceptionally dignified and luxurious!
Wherever she stood, she was the brightest focal point in the entire venue!
…
Liu Wei walked out of the hotel lobby and saw Chen Hong being surrounded by people!
He couldn't help but marvel. Although the beautiful woman had aged, she had become even more charming.
Chen Kai Ge was truly fortunate. No wonder he would give up being a host and choose Chen Hong!
Such a noble and elegant, dignified and luxurious woman, who wouldn't like her?
Chen Hong had the capital to be proud!
“Wei Di, long time no see.”
Seeing Liu Wei, Chen Hong smiled and said, “It's been many years since I went to Hong Kong to film. I didn't expect you to change so much. I almost didn't recognize you.”
“What was I like before?”
Liu Wei was curious. What kind of image did his previous self have in the eyes of Chen Hong, a woman who could bring down a country with her beauty?
“Handsome.”
Chen Hong said.
“You came to negotiate with me, or to coax me? I want to hear the truth.”
Liu Wei said.
“Wooden, honest, not like a top-tier wealthy second generation.”
Chen Hong said.
“That's still the truth. There are too many eyes here. Let's find a place to talk.”
Liu Wei said.
…
Hengdian Film & TV City.
A secluded gazebo.
In mid to late March, the weather in Hengdian was already very hot.
The two sat under the gazebo, and Liu Wei said, “Since you know my old man is awesome, how dare you bully my artist like that?”
“Wei Di, if I tell you I didn't know Old Chen was using Xie Miao like that, would you believe me?”
Chen Hong said.
“You borrowed him, didn't you tell him that Xie Miao is my person?”
Liu Wei said.
“I wasn't at the set at the time. Old Chen asked me to find someone, and I saw Xie Miao's WeChat post, so I thought of him and asked him to help. It was just a cameo, I didn't think much of it. I thought it would be over soon. How could I have known that Old Chen would go crazy filming and keep re-shooting things over and over again?”
Chen Hong said.
“Even if I believe you, he didn't know, but it happened. The Hong Kong martial arts team won't be able to take on the The Daoist Goes Down the Mountain job. It's useless for you to come to me.”
Liu Wei said.
“We found the Korean side, but the Koreans were too much. They raised the price. Even though Old Chen had a conflict with you, we are still a family compared to the Koreans. You can't let outsiders laugh at us and give the advantage to the Koreans in the end.”
Hearing that Liu Wei wouldn't budge, Chen Hong became anxious.
If she couldn't solve this matter, in the end, if she had to hire a martial arts team from Korea, where would Chen Kai Ge's face go?
“If I back down, how can I protect my artist in the future?”
Liu Wei said.
“How about this. We'll give Xie Miao a top-tier star's cameo fee, and we'll find the media to publicize it and help him raise his profile. You're going to promote him anyway. This way, Xie Miao gets face and gets a high fee, the benefits are real and tangible. Even if it spreads, everyone will know that your artist didn't suffer any losses, and your face will also be saved.”
Chen Hong said.
“Hong Jie, your suggestion is very good. For your sake, I can accept it. How much is Guo Fu Cheng's fee?”
Liu Wei said.
“7 million.”
Chen Hong said.
“Then we’ll pay him 7 million.”
Liu Wei said.
“He's just a cameo, according to the market price for a top-tier action star, it's 2 million.”
Chen Hong didn't expect Liu Wei to ask for so much.
“If you’re not willing to pay, then there's no need for us to talk.”
Liu Wei said and left.
“Wei Di, 4 million, that's my bottom line.”
Chen Hong pondered for a moment, then said.
“Deal, 4 million!”
Liu Wei agreed.
4 million in hand, after deducting taxes, it was still a generous fee. For Xie Miao, it was a huge sum. He got the money and his face was saved.
Since this was the case, Liu Wei wouldn't press it. If he really let Chen Kai Ge hire a Korean team, he wouldn't look good either. After all, they were all in the film industry.
After Liu Wei and Chen Hong reached an agreement, he prepared to leave.
But just as he was about to part ways with Chen Hong, he heard a splash, and turned around to see Chen Hong falling into the pond.
Chen Hong, who had fallen into the pond, was screaming and clearly couldn't swim, she was scared.
Liu Wei was speechless. He jumped down and brought her out.
Chen Hong, who was still in shock after being rescued, was still clinging to Liu Wei.
“You're safe now.”
The atmosphere became romantic, with a soft, fragrant beauty in his arms.
“Liu Wei, Chen Hong!”
Just as the atmosphere became romantic, Chen Kai Ge suddenly appeared. Seeing Chen Hong hugging Liu Wei, his old face became incredibly ugly.
“Wei Di, thank you for saving me.”
Chen Hong's cheeks flushed. She quickly separated from Liu Wei and thanked him, then explained to Chen Kai Ge, “I accidentally fell into the pond. It was Liu Wei who saved me.”
“Humph!”
Chen Kai Ge snorted coldly and left without turning back.
Liu Wei sneered. He was really arrogant and self-righteous. His own wife fell into the pond, but instead of coming to care for her, he was jealous.
“Wei Di, don't be angry. I'll talk to Old Chen. You have to tell Gu Xuan Zhao. They won't dare to return to the The Daoist Goes Down the Mountain set without your word.”
Chen Hong said.
…
Back at the hotel, Da Mi Mi was stunned to see her husband wet.
“Taiping Princess invited you to bathe together?”
Da Mi Mi teased.
“She fell into the pond. She can't swim. I jumped down to save her.”
Liu Wei explained.
“What about after that?”
“Chen Kai Ge appeared.”
“What was his expression? He wouldn't have misunderstood, would he?”
“He shouldn't have misunderstood. But he's arrogant and self-righteous. He's relying on his wife to save him. He doesn't have any face, so his face is ugly.”
“Humph, I don't believe your one-sided story. Let's go, let's take a bath.”
“I can do it myself.”
“No, I need to inspect the ammo depot!”
“…”
…
“Do you believe me now?”
An hour later, Liu Wei held Da Mi Mi in his arms and said.
“Hee hee, I believe you now.”
Da Mi Mi was extremely satisfied.
…
Next door.
“Tang Tang Jie, do you always get all lovey-dovey after getting married?”
Reba asked Tang Tang.
“I don't know. I'm not married yet. But they should be, I'm afraid they’ll work themselves to death.”
Tang Tang complained.
…
Early in the morning, the main crew of Escape the Limit got up early.
After everyone had breakfast, they went to Hengdian Film & TV City with the crew.
…
“Wei Shao, can we really return to the The Daoist Goes Down the Mountain set now?”
When Liu Wei started filming the first scene, Gu Xuan Zhao came over.
“Yes, we can.”
Liu Wei said.
Gu Xuan Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. The dark times were finally over.
After saluting Liu Wei, he left.
