Chapter 187 Offending People

It took a whole week to shoot the three-minute fight scene in a six-minute micro-film, and Zhuo Anyun was still a little dissatisfied.

However, as Nie Peisheng said, learning, practicing and practice have different experiences. After Xu Rui finished shooting this week, he has learned a little bit.

After the filming was completed, Xu Rui invited Nie Peisheng, Gu Qing and Zhuo Anyun to dinner at the suggestion of Lu Ziliang.

In the box, Nie Peisheng said to him: "How is it? How do you feel about the filming?"

"Is my acting okay?" Xu Rui asked back.

Nie Peisheng smiled and said, "Not bad, quite talented."

After getting familiar with each other, they were less cautious about joking. Xu Rui said, "Are you serious? Or are you doing it for the tuition?"

"Why, you still don't believe it." Nie Peisheng shouted to director Zhuo Anyun, "Old Zhuo, how is Xu Rui's performance?"

Zhuo Anyun and Gu Qing were talking. When they heard the shout, they turned their heads and looked over here, praising, "Not bad, quite talented."

Xu Rui still didn't believe it: "Did you collude, or are these few sentences a unified speech to deal with young actors?"

Nie Peisheng: "emmm..."

Xu Rui said quickly, "You hesitated!"

"Stop talking, drink!" Nie Peisheng raised his glass.

Xu Rui didn't expect that these three were all drunkards. They kept drinking. After he drank a few glasses with them, he felt a little drunk, so he ate the dishes quietly and stopped drinking. The rest was left to Lu Ziliang to help with the socializing.

Several people ignored him at first. After drinking for a while, Zhuo Anyun suddenly knocked on the table: "Xiao Xu, don't eat alone, come, have a drink."

"I've drunk a lot, I can't drink anymore." Xu Rui smiled and waved his hand.

Zhuo Anyun was dissatisfied: "Alas, you don't even give the director face?"

Xu Rui felt that this guy was a little too much, and played with the cup on the table: "Director Zhuo should give face, but..."

Lu Ziliang and Xu Rui have known each other for almost a year. Xu Rui usually handles interpersonal relationships very well. Others are warm and polite to him, and he is respectful and humble to others, but he really ignores this set of rules at the table. If he doesn't want to drink, he won't drink!

Lu Ziliang interrupted Xu Rui, took Zhuo Anyun's hand, and said with a smile: "He can't drink much, I'll drink with you."

Nie Peisheng saw this, and seeing Zhuo Anyun's face darken, he moved sideways to block Xu Rui behind him, blocking their sight, and said with a smile: "Old Zhuo, let's drink our own."

Since Lu Ziliang had interrupted him, Xu Rui didn't say anything. He couldn't help thinking that when Yan Ran went to the dinner party, she probably faced similar scenes, maybe even more excessive.

He took out his mobile phone and saw a message from Yan Ran, saying that she would return to Beijing with the crew tomorrow.

This is good news. Xu Rui immediately said, "I'll pick you up."

"Have you finished shooting that micro-film?"

"Yes, I just finished it today."

Seeing Xu Rui sending a message, Zhuo Anyun was upset again: "What's going on? We are drinking here, and you are playing with your phone alone there. Do you know how to be polite?"

Xu Rui looked up and saw that the other party's face was flushed. He smiled and said, "Director Zhuo is drunk? I'll ask the waiter to order you a cup of sobering tea."

"Who is drunk!" Zhuo Anyun frowned and said, "Brothers have worked so hard for you for a week, and you don't even have the face to let you have a drink?"

Lu Ziliang already regretted asking Xu Rui to treat the three of them to dinner.

Without waiting for Nie Peisheng and Gu Qing to smooth things over, Xu Rui blurted out, "Isn't it that I didn't pay you for working so hard for a week?"

"How can you talk like that!" Zhuo Anyun slammed the table directly.

"Isn't that right?" Xu Rui asked back. He was low-key enough in the entertainment industry. He didn't grab resources or block other people's way this year. He almost always implemented the principle of being kind to others. If he wanted him to accompany him to drink and be his grandson, he wouldn't even consider whether he was qualified.

Zhuo Anyun pointed at Xu Rui: "You... don't think that you can't know your own weight just because you are young and popular."

"Old Zhuo, Old Zhuo!" Nie Peisheng scolded.

Gu Qing on the side also frowned and said: "Old Zhuo, stop talking!"

Xu Rui wanted to say "If you have the guts, you can ban me", but seeing that Nie Peisheng and Gu Qing were there to dissuade him, he didn't add fuel to the fire, otherwise these two people would lose face, and there was no need to offend three people at once.

Xu Rui stood up and held back for the moment. If Zhuo Anyun said something else, he couldn't control his mouth, so he took the initiative to say goodbye: "I have something else to do, Brother Liang, you accompany the three teachers and make sure they eat and drink well, I'm leaving first."

Lu Ziliang was also afraid that he would really make a fuss later, so he didn't stop him: "Okay, go with peace of mind."

Nie Peisheng and Gu Qing also didn't stop him.

Fan Shuyi was waiting in the nanny car. When he saw Xu Rui suddenly get in the car wearing sunglasses, he asked in surprise, "Have you finished eating?"

Xu Rui shook his head: "No, they are still eating. I'll go first. You take me back first, and then come back to pick up Brother Liang."

Fan Shuyi was a little surprised. Even he knew that Xu Rui was the host but left early. Something must have happened.

Xu Rui saw that he seemed to be guessing, and smiled: "It's not a big deal. Don't think about it. It's just that the drinking culture is killing people. You focus on driving, don't hit the electric pole later."

"Oh." Fan Shuyi responded and focused on the road.

Xu Rui went home and took a nap. When he woke up, he found the news from Lu Ziliang, saying that he had sent the three back and nothing happened. As for what Zhuo Anyun's attitude would be after he woke up, it is not known for the time being.

Although Zhuo Anyun is a little famous, his status in the circle is not as good as Luo Jingchuan. It has little impact on Xu Rui's future development. It's nothing more than slandering him behind his back to make him have fewer film and television resources.

The problem is that unless it is a serious drama or the country calls for it, Xu Rui has no intention of filming other people's TV series.

In the morning, it was Gu Qing who sent him a message: "Xiao Xu, Lao Zhuo was drunk, but he actually has no ill intentions, don't take it to heart."

The person was invited by Gu Qing, and seeing that he came to deal with the aftermath in person, Xu Rui was also very polite: "Teacher Gu Qing is polite, of course I won't take it to heart, but I am also wrong, I was not polite to the senior."

Xu Rui and Gu Qing exchanged a few polite words, and the matter was exposed, which would not affect future cooperation, but Zhuo Anyun's attitude was soon made clear, and he didn't care about the finished film.

Xu Rui didn't care either, and directly found the post-production team to edit it. Anyway, he had signed a contract, and he would put this micro-film online first, and no one could control it if he wanted to leave it in the warehouse.

Putting this matter aside, he happily went to pick up Yan Ran in the afternoon.

The crew took the train back to Beijing, and hired a van to bring the equipment back. After shooting this location, they added a few more shots and the filming was finished. The whole crew was in a very good spirit. Seeing Xu Rui coming to pick up Yan Ran, they smiled and ate melons on the side.

Unfortunately, there was no scene that could make them make a fuss, such as flying into his arms. After returning to Beijing, the crew was given a half-day holiday, and Yan Ran and Du Xiao got in the car and left.

Xu Rui took out two bottles of water from the car refrigerator and handed them to them, and asked curiously: "Is there anything fun to do when you go to shoot in other places this time?"

Du Xiao shook her head: "Almost all the time was spent on shooting, so there was no time to have fun. I haven't slept well these days. I want to go back and have a good sleep."

Yan Ran agreed and turned to ask Xu Rui: "What about you?"

"Me?" Xu Rui thought for a while: "You offended a director, why aren't you surprised?"

Du Xiao said: "Of course I'm surprised, I'm surprised that you offended someone until now."
