Suite 1608 on the 16th floor of Tianhai Hotel has a sign from the cast of "Apple Blossom Love" hanging on the door. Smoke fills the living room of the suite. Several cast members are sitting on the sofa for a meeting. There are piles of glass ashtrays on the coffee table.
Full of cigarette butts.
Director Chen, who has a big beard and a burly figure, is full of anger and is shouting with a loud voice that is well-known in the circle.
"Why don't you come sooner or later? It's the critical moment. Come here. Zhang Chengbao, what do your crew do for food? How do you manage your diet? You tell me!"
The skinny director of the production team, Zhang Chengbao, stood up quickly with a look of grievance on his face.
"Director Chen, you can't blame us for this. We have been ordering food from Tianshun Restaurant for more than half a month, and we have never had any problems. The water the crew drinks is also bottled mineral water. Besides,
If there is a problem, Yao Lulu won't be the only one in trouble." Zhang Chengbao didn't dare to take the blame, and it was only proper to clear himself first.
"Yes, so many of us eat the same food and drink the same water, and it's okay." Assistant Director Wang also felt that it was unreliable to blame Zhang Chengbao for the incident, and hurriedly spoke for him.
Director Chen took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, lit it, and took two long puffs. He was silent for a long time.
The others also smoked together, all with heavy faces.
"Xing Guolin, you are a veteran makeup artist. Is there nothing you can do? Cooperate with the lighting engineer to see if you can cover it up?" Director Chen slowed down and said to the makeup artist.
"Director Chen, if there was a way, wouldn't I have said it earlier? We can wait until now. The red spots on Yao Lulu's face are not small in size and deep in color, and it is really difficult to cover them up. This is not Beijing opera facial makeup.
If you hold the oil paint up and say hello, you won't be able to see anything." Makeup artist Xing explained with a grimace.
Director Chen shook his head and firmly pressed the half-smoked cigarette into the ashtray.
"What did the doctor say? Can it be solved as soon as possible?" He turned his attention to the drama director again.
"The cause of the allergic reaction is unknown. I don't remember what the special name is. Anyway, the doctor said that if you insist on taking the medicine, it will take about a month to subside. During this period, you should eat a light diet, and he also prescribed a
Please take a look at the list of taboo foods." Zhang Chengbao said as he took out a list and handed it over.
"I won't watch this. A month? The cucumbers and vegetables are already cold." Director Chen impatiently put the order back.
"In my opinion, Xie Linna should still take the main responsibility for this matter. She is Yao Lulu's personal assistant. She is responsible for Yao Lulu's daily life and food." Zhang Chengbao pointed the contradiction at others.
"Okay, it's useless to hold anyone responsible now. Let's all think of solutions." Deputy Director Wang stopped the topic from continuing, otherwise it would be endless.
Director Chen also nodded in agreement.
The director wanted to hold me accountable just now, but it would be fine if he left it to Xie Linna. Big-name artists are awesome, and they even have to give face to their personal assistants. Zhang Chengbao secretly slandered.
"The investors are pressing hard now, and we have to meet the film festival schedule. Tell us what you have in mind," Director Chen said with a serious face.
"I think there is no other good way now. Yao Lulu can only take some long shots first, and there is no way to do close-ups for the time being. We also need to comfort her and let her have a good rest, otherwise it will be even more troublesome if she gets angry in a hurry.
Let’s put the other people’s scenes first.” Deputy Director Wang proposed a compromise plan.
"That's all we can do, Zhang Chengbao, you can find other doctors, such as traditional Chinese medicine, to see if there are any better medicines and treatments. Let's adjourn the meeting, everyone goes about their business." Director Chen shook his head.
, ended the meeting reluctantly.
After hearing this, everyone stood up and left, leaving only Director Chen sitting on the sofa, sulking with his arms folded.
***************************
In another room at the end of the corridor on the sixteenth floor of the hotel, a gorgeous young girl with long hair was sitting on the sofa.
He has a delicate oval-shaped face and long, fine black hair draped over his shoulders.
People who often watch TV and movies should know that she is Yao Lulu, the most popular female movie star in China at present. At a young age, she has already won the Golden Bird Award for Best Actress twice. There is a high demand for winning the third trophy this year.
This movie star, who would definitely arouse cheers if he appeared in public, stood up from the sofa and walked around the room restlessly with his eyebrows furrowed.
There was a woman with short hair sitting on the other end of the sofa, holding a tissue in her hand and sobbing softly.
"Okay, okay, Xie Linna, I don't blame you. Let others say what they say. Just don't make me upset." Yao Lulu looked at her personal assistant dissatisfied.
Hearing this, Xie Linna had to try her best to suppress her emotions and stop making any sound.
Yao Lulu walked to the dressing table again, turned her left face to the mirror. The red spot on her face was still the same, with no signs of fading.
"What kind of useless medicine is this? It's of no use at all." She said angrily.
"The doctor said that you should keep taking it for a month and then see again. This medicine is imported." Xie Linna said in a low voice.
"One month, how can it be in time? If the schedule can't be kept up, won't this year's Golden Bird Award be ruined? Newspapers and TV all day long talk about this achievement and that breakthrough in medicine, and even minor illnesses are difficult to treat. I don't know what those bricks are.
What else does a professor do every day besides giving lectures to make money and writing bragging articles?" Yao Lulu said irritably.
"The doctor said, you can't be anxious, and you have to cultivate yourself calmly so that you can get better quickly. You have to go for a review tomorrow." Xie Linna was a little worried about Yao Lulu's mood.
"Go wherever you go, don't go. I think these hospitals now, besides asking you to do a full set of examinations and prescribing a bunch of useless medicines, what else can they do? Doctors' academic qualifications, qualifications, and titles are higher than the last.
What's the use? When I was a child, I had an allergy and a red rash. My mother found a country doctor and cured it with two doses of herbal medicine. It's not as laborious as it is now."
Yao Lulu appeared in front of her personal assistant, so she didn't have to worry about her public image. She vented her feelings and seemed to feel a little more relaxed.
"Sister Lulu, it's time to take the medicine."
Xie Linna still remembered her responsibilities. She took out several medicines from a handbag, then went to the water dispenser to pour a cup of hot water, and handed the medicines to Yao Lulu.
Yao Lulu frowned and had no choice but to accept the assistant's arrangement and took various medicines and pills in order.
At this time, Xie Linna's cell phone rang. She answered the call and it was from the deputy director. She expressed concern for Yao Lulu and told her not to worry and to rest in peace and recover. The crew would arrange everything.
Xie Linna also had to say a few perfunctory words and said some polite words to settle the matter.
