Chapter 375: Chapter 374: Second Master Wants to Appraise Treasures Chapter 375: Chapter 374: Second Master Wants to Appraise Treasures Everyone in the room was completely stunned!
Their gaze at Wang Hao was like looking at a god!
Lan Zihuang had stars in her eyes, “Brother Hao, you’re amazing! Master Su Hongye herself! Just one sentence and you got her to come!”
Liu Hong was also completely dumbfounded, “That… um… Master Su bothering you like that…”
Tong Tong exclaimed, “You really know her?!”
Su Hongye replied, “It’s nothing, I just happened to have met Wang Hao before, he suits my temperament well, and I was bored spending time in Central Sea, so going out for a walk suits me fine. Alright, that’s it, see you tomorrow.”
“See you tomorrow.” Liu Hong hung up the phone in a daze, and the bags on his shoulders clattered to the ground.
The meeting room fell eerily silent.
After about ten seconds of quiet, everyone suddenly pounced on him, grabbing Wang Hao’s arms and legs, and yelled together, “Brother Hao, fess up, are you involved with Master Su? Spill it!”
Wang Hao: “…”
What kind of crazy ideas are these? I’m not involved with her! I’m involved with someone else entirely!
“By chance, just by chance,” Wang Hao sweated bullets and hurriedly made up an excuse to brush it off, then sat next to the conference table, “Director Yang, I’m back from vacation. How has everything been with the crew during this time?”
Before Wang Hao had left, he had already taken a vacation from the crew, having outlaid the entire “Smiling Proud Wanderer” book before leaving. Subsequently, he handed over the script production to Yu Junpeng, so he was able to take more than half a month off.
Naturally, he needed to ask about the situation upon his return.
“It’s good that you’re back,” finally managing to keep the makeup artist Liu onboard, Director Yang let out a sigh of relief and grinned, “You scared me just now, I thought Liu was going to flee. The progress here is pretty smooth though. Chen Li, can you briefly update Wang Hao on our progress?”
“Sure,” Chen Li smiled, “Currently, Little Yu has managed to organize the entire script’s framework into over two hundred parts. Just as you suggested, we’ve further broken these parts into even smaller segments, now counting a total of one thousand three hundred sixty-eight scenes.”
Wang Hao was surprised, “That many? Is my classmate handling it well?”
“No complaints,” said Chen Li, as the coordinator of the crew, he was quite professional, “The script he’s written has been cross-verified by our crew members with the original novel you wrote. The plot is on track, and the dialogues have been carefully deliberated; rest assured, there are no issues. Boss Ren is very pleased with your classmate, though he has indeed exhausted him; he’s still asleep right now.”
Yu was really something, not bad at all.
“The shooting progress is also quite good,” speaking of which, Chen Li grew even more appreciative of Wang Hao, “Your method of splitting the entire drama into fragments for shooting has been very effective. Our crew has almost finished shooting two hundred thirteen scenes that can be filmed within the film and television base. The field team is currently scouting for locations, and we’ll likely have news soon.”
“Progress so fast?!” Wang Hao was also a bit surprised, “Over two hundred scenes are done?”
“Ah, these parts are just some simple minor settings,” Chen Li laughed, “They are mostly extras’ scenes, just corpses or running away, hardly any major actors, so it’s quicker. The next parts are trickier because we need to find a lot of actors, and there are several major scenes, like when the protagonist Linghu Chong leads an assault on Shaolin Temple, which require lots of extras, we can’t shoot that yet.”
Now Wang Hao understood.
So far, the progress of the crew was that the entire script was ready and some simple scenes had been completely shot.
Next, the urgent task was to find actors and start shooting the formal storyline, which Wang Hao couldn’t really help with at the moment; that was producer Tong Tong’s job.
“Temporarily that’s it,” Chen Li finally said, “Little Wang, if you have nothing else to do during this time, just stay with the crew. After all, you don’t have to pay for food and lodging. If you like, you can even play a small role; Boss Ren said everything is up to you.”
Indeed, Brother Hao is the best!
“So I’ll have some free time!” Wang Hao chuckled, “I’ll just stay here. I’m not busy with anything during this period, so if anyone needs any help, just give me a shout!”
Yang Shoulin laughed, “Of course, we’re all from the same crew, we definitely won’t be shy.”
It had been over half a month since they last saw each other, everyone casually chatted for a few more minutes, then Wang Hao prepared to go back to his room to rest.
But just as he got up, the door of the meeting room was suddenly flung open with a bang, and the burly Brother Hao barged in, shouting loudly as soon as he entered, “Little brother, little brother! I heard you’re back! Hahaha! Great, you just arrived in time!”
Wang Hao: “…”
What the heck is going on?!
Clearly, Brother Hao had been seriously working out recently. Although he was still tall and burly, his previously large beer belly had noticeably shrunk, and his chest muscles had developed a lot. He grabbed Wang Hao’s neck like catching a chicken and laughed loudly, “I heard from Ren Xing that you’re very talented, you even know Feng Shui! Today I have a good task for you, help me authenticate some treasures!”
Wang Hao broke into a sweat and said, “Brother Hao, please be gentle…”
Everyone present smiled at this spectacle. Boss Ren’s temper was certainly interesting; such an old man, yet acting as impatient as the young!
People know him for Feng Shui, yet you drag him to appraise treasures; these two don’t even relate…
“Get in the car and let’s talk!” Brother Hao pulled Wang Hao and headed out of the hotel, directly getting into a Land Rover parked at the entrance. Then he laughed, “It’s rare that you’re back; otherwise, I’d probably end up being duped if I went alone!”
Wang Hao laughed, “Brother Hao, are you thinking of diving into antiques now?”
“I’m too rough for antiques, I might even mistake a pack of jasmine for Longjing tea!” Brother Hao buckled his seatbelt, started the car, and said, “This time, it’s purely for the excitement. It’s actually a friend of mine who wants to buy treasures. He’s interested in a set of Zisha teapots!”
“To authenticate for someone else?” Wang Hao curiously asked, “Aren’t you worried I might make a mistake?”
“Well, about that,” Brother Hao chuckled as he drove, “this actually involves you too, you know what my friend does?”
How could Wang Hao know? He decisively shook his head: “I have no idea!”
“This guy is the president of Jinying,” Brother Hao smiled mischievously, “Jinhua Film and Television Academy, ever heard of it?”
“Jinying?!” Wang Hao was immediately shocked when he heard the identity. Jinhua Film and Television Academy was a decent film university in the Heavenly People’s Republic–after all, it was located near the Jinhua Film and Television Base, and many celebrities in the industry graduated from there! The president of such an academy was no ordinary figure!
“How about that, impressive, right?” Proud to have surprised Wang Hao once, Brother Hao said, “I was thinking, since you’re rolling in the entertainment circle, getting to know him would only bring benefits, no drawbacks. So, as soon as I heard you were back, I had to find you. What do you think? Isn’t your brother thoughtful?”
Undoubtedly, Brother Hao was truly reliable!
“Very thoughtful!” Wang Hao gave Brother Hao a big thumbs up, “Sure enough, only Brother Hao has such solid connections! So, what’s the situation with this president this time? Brother Hao, tell me about it so I can prepare.”
“Actually, it’s quite simple,” Brother Hao began to explain to Wang Hao, “The president’s name is Zheng Weimin, I usually just call him Zheng. Old Zheng is absolutely a fan of antiques; he doesn’t know how to appraise them but loves them, especially loves hearing stories about antiques. This time, he somehow heard some news that there’s a shop in JH city with a set of Zisha teapots considered the treasure of the shop, usually not shown to the public! As soon as he heard, he was itching to buy it. He specifically drove here from the central sea.”
“So he just pulled you to join for the excitement?” Wang Hao thought hard but still didn’t understand, “But you don’t know about antiques, right?”
