Chapter 235: What I Want is Avatar

A top-tier popular young actress asks a man for a gift in public.

And she does it with righteous confidence.

Dilireba says: He promised it~ Of course she has to be righteous about it.

Her smile at this moment was exceptionally bright and gentle, and even while talking to Bai Liang, she didn't forget to wave and greet the little sister Zhao Jinmai.

However, most of her attention was naturally placed on Bai Liang.

Her eyes had a rare touch of playfulness.

Reba was wearing a white hip-hugging skirt today. Although it wasn't particularly gorgeous, it still outlined her good figure.

That waist-to-hip ratio made the little sister stare in a daze.

She subconsciously reached out to touch her own butt—the gap is so big, oh~

However, Bai Liang felt a little guilty at this moment. The little crocodile toy, of course, he bought it.

But yesterday, Zhao Jinmai was a bit "tired of studying." To motivate her to study hard and finish her test papers, he used the little crocodile he had just bought online to have a "fair" bet with her.

It was really fair: if she got bitten, she would honestly finish the test paper; if Bai Liang got bitten, he would cover for her and let her slack off for a week.

As a result, classmate Mai Mai was bitten silly by the little crocodile!

In the end, she finished the test paper with tears in her eyes.

After finishing, she almost dismantled the little crocodile on the spot.

But after repeatedly confirming that this thing hadn't been secretly tampered with by Bai Liang, she had to endure it—God just let her study and wouldn't let her slack off.

Bai Liang: Little sister, let you feel the adult world a little bit.

Otherwise, she's always shouting about wanting to grow up fast or something~

"You didn't prepare it?" Reba hadn't received the gift or any sign of it for a long time, and a tearful, aggrieved little expression appeared on her face.

Although the traces of acting were a bit obvious, it was indeed enough to infect the people around her a little.

Guo Fan, that silly guy, couldn't help it: "Brother Liang, fifteen yuan, you even..."

After all, he had seen with his own eyes how Bai Liang used fifteen yuan to pry 20 million out of Dilireba.

To put it another way, classmate Reba is one of the investors in the movie!

If Bai Liang bullied her, he would be the first to disagree!

However, Guo Fan's eyes didn't mean that: Brother Liang, there are many people outside now...

Fortunately, classmate Reba didn't dwell on this matter too much; she was still very sensible.

She even felt a little guilty, thinking she shouldn't have brought this up right away and made Bai Liang feel awkward.

However, she didn't see Bai Liang's small action of putting his hands behind his back and frantically signaling to Zhao Jinmai.

Zhao Jinmai: Hmph... fine, she is still very sensible~

Sneaking away first, then taking out the little crocodile she wanted to keep from her small backpack and placing it on Bai Liang's RV.

At such a young age, she already knows how to be a wingman~

Bai Liang: Thumbs up, I'll buy her some snacks later.

"You clearly prepared it! Why didn't you say so~"

Reba got the little crocodile she had been thinking about, then turned around and plunged into Bai Liang's arms.

She was too busy "ambushing" just now and forgot the sense of ritual, so she's making up for it now~

However, just as she wanted to take the opportunity to kiss Bai Liang's ear, he suddenly called a temporary halt.

"Wait a second~"

"Ah? What's wrong?"

"Drive the little mouse out first."

"How could there be a mouse on the RV?"

Zhao Jinmai: It's me~

Damn it! She had clearly sneaked into the bathroom and closed the door, so why was she discovered?

She didn't want to do anything bad; she was purely curious about what these two would do on the RV.

Kids, you know, it's normal to be curious.

Especially at Zhao Jinmai's age, she was just too curious!

But being dragged off the car by Bai Liang by her small ears made her feel quite embarrassed, and her face turned red.

But she still politely apologized first, and then continued to blush: "Brother, I was wrong, I'm sorry."

"Ah? It's fine, but practice your hide-and-seek skills next time. I was much better than you when I was a kid."

"Really?"

If Reba wasn't still waiting on the RV, Bai Liang would have explained the gameplay of hide-and-seek to this little girl.

It's a pity that today isn't suitable. After Reba finishes her cameo, he'll pass on some winning hide-and-seek experience to this little girl.

But Bai Liang always felt something was wrong~

This little girl wouldn't keep hiding on his RV after learning it, would she?

And as for getting on Bai Liang's RV directly on the set and closing the door, Reba did it very naturally.

But indeed, with the attention on their CP, staying on the RV for a while couldn't be considered news at all.

Not to mention that the people on the set wouldn't talk nonsense, even if they really did, those marketing accounts might not be willing to write about it.

At the very least, it would have to be something like the two of them sneaking a kiss, something that could be "solid proof."

The two didn't stay in the car for too long either.

So Reba's finishing work was just a light touch-up of her lipstick.

Which seemed to make those old perverts on the set a little disappointed.

"Why didn't this RV shake?"

"Indeed, but it's not easy for a car of this tonnage to shake."

"Brother Liang has high firepower; he definitely can."

"Director Guo, let's wrap up early today. Dilireba is only staying for one night, let's not waste their time."

Hearing this, Guo Fan felt it made a lot of sense.

One of the investors is here, so this bit of face must be given.

It's just hard on our male lead, who is not only working hard filming but also has to personally accompany the investor when she comes.

Isn't this the dirty unspoken rules between stars and gold masters that marketing accounts love to write about?

You can't ignore this just because both sides are good-looking.

In essence, it was Bai Liang making a "sacrifice" for the movie.

Just thinking about it makes one feel regretful~

Guo Fan tried hard to squeeze out two drops of tears: "Add dishes for Brother Liang at mealtime, buy ten oysters."

"Director Guo, are you reimbursing this?"

"You say that... Teacher Liu Cixin came yesterday, put it on his tab... Hey~ since that's the case, buy more, everyone needs a boost, Mai Mai is still growing, she's lost weight recently."

Little sister Zhao Jinmai, who was particularly depressed about the fact that she had already gained six or seven pounds, said she really couldn't eat anymore.

Especially after seeing Dilireba today, she was even more determined to control her mouth!

She also wanted that kind of figure! It's really good-looking~

"Your crew feels so different~"

After wandering around, Reba couldn't help but sigh.

Bai Liang laughed: "Everyone who comes says that, and then they get squeezed by Guo Fan. Basically, no one can escape."

"Squeezed?" Reba was curious. "Teacher Liu Cixin, the original author, came yesterday and was squeezed for 200, 00 for lunch money; Wu Jing was squeezed for several rounds of milk tea, and he didn't spend less than him..."

Although Guo Fan isn't as natural or as generous as Bai Liang when reaching out to young ladies, the amount is quite large.

But he belongs to the type of player who would ask anyone passing by to "v" him 50.

Theoretically, the *Wandering Earth* crew is no longer short of money, so he shouldn't be like this.

But there's no way, he's been poor for too long!

He still doesn't dare to spend a penny recklessly, striving to spend all the funds on the blade.

So for everyone who comes to visit the set or make a cameo, Guo Fan is like a KFC Crazy Thursday.

Since you're here, cough up some money~

After hearing what Bai Liang said, Reba couldn't hold back, but she was very self-aware: "Then what should I treat everyone to?"

"You? You don't need to. Guo Fan will put you on a pedestal..."

Hearing this, Reba blinked, but she misunderstood.

She thought she had this treatment because of Bai Liang...

Since Bai Liang has so much face in this crew, of course she has to... earn him more face.

【Content omitted for brevity】

She immediately stated that she would pay 200, 00 to improve the meals for everyone on the crew.

Honestly, Guo Fan almost couldn't help but say something auspicious.

Young lady is generous!

He immediately told the crew's makeup artist that when Reba films her "bed scene" later, she must be made up beautifully.

"Bed scene?!"

Reba was a bit confused when she heard this term. Do you have to film such exciting things even for a cameo now?

However, if she's filming with Bai Liang... then the set has to be cleared, she would be embarrassed.

"Have you seen *In the Name of the People*?" Bai Liang said at this time.

"Of course I have, such a popular drama."

"The bed scene Guo Fan is talking about is exactly the same as Chen Hai's bed scene in *In the Name of the People*, both lying on a hospital bed."

Reba:...

This crew looks very powerful and high-end, but the people in it are all a bit strange~

The director is the strangest!

A group of such strange people wanting to make a strange sci-fi movie... I don't know why, but Reba suddenly felt a little expectant about what this movie would look like in the end.

Bai Liang: Don't expect! Don't expect! Don't expect!

With this expectation, Reba spent another 200, 00 to treat everyone to milk tea.

Guo Fan's mouth was crooked with laughter.

As for Reba's cameo scenes, they could be finished this afternoon; there really weren't many shots.

It was just lying on the hospital bed with a pale face, because of her serious illness, she gave the hope of life to her father Han Ziang and son Liu Qi...

Besides the brief appearance on the hospital bed, she could only appear in the family photo.

And in that family photo, Liu Peiqiang's face had a hole in it; no one knew what he looked like.

It was the same during filming; Bai Liang felt like he had a hole in his face too...

However, starting from this scene, he finally knew what Guo Fan wanted to do.

The fact that Liu Peiqiang and Liu Qi look the same is actually not a big problem in two movies.

But in one movie... the sense of disharmony would be very heavy.

As a result, Guo Fan seemed to have planned it long ago. When filming Liu Peiqiang's scenes, he didn't film his face at all!

There wouldn't even be a few side-face shots.

Similarly, because the funds were in place, Guo Fan naturally wouldn't abandon the space station line, but he also planned to film it this way.

Some actors can complete some thrilling performances just by their eyes, instantly capturing the audience's hearts.

So the question is, can you shape the character's arc without showing your face, relying only on voice, body movements, etc.?

Bai Liang understood what he meant almost instantly... Good, good, good, he really couldn't help it, wanting to stuff some "red" (patriotic/emotional) elements in.

Actually, regarding character shaping, *The Wandering Earth* still had some flaws.

Guo Fan initially invested most of his energy in other aspects.

Of course, his choice was absolutely correct.

The sci-fi shell of the film and those shocking special effects scenes are actually similar to the brilliant fireworks of a song and dance performance; they can bring a different viewing experience and sensory stimulation.

But the parts that can truly reach emotional immersion and aesthetic pleasure still come from the film's plot line and the inner transformation of the main characters.

With the former, the movie can already be successful, at least commercially it can definitely be successful.

And doing the latter can make the audience remember more.

Because of some guy's intrusion, Guo Fan also had more ambition!

He wants to turn Liu Peiqiang into a symbol.

As for the second part, it naturally talks about why Liu Peiqiang could become such a symbol...

Wu Jing really couldn't act this out; it's not the *Space Wolf Warrior* routine.

Bai Liang: Time to start learning mode again.

He had always felt that his current acting skills were enough for anything.

But Guo Fan coming out with this suddenly really made him feel the pressure.

However, this time, it's not just about reading books or materials on acting.

He has to get something with "spirit." Even if he only needs to act out a shadow, he definitely can't do it without enough homework.

"So, is this why you're searching for information online now?"

Reba, wearing pajamas, took off her mask, wiped her face dry, hugged Bai Liang from behind, and gently bit his ear...

This really was life-threatening.

Bai Liang: Learning? Learn my ass!

He slammed the computer shut, raised his head, and gave an intense response—he knew Reba liked this~

This girl always has a feeling of being in a hurry, wishing she could be covered in sweat before even starting.

Sticky and messy.

Her aggressiveness is on the same level as when she wears a gown on the red carpet.

And she doesn't like to make noise; most of the time she bites her lip, looking like she wants to compete with Bai Liang.

The netizens were right; when the two of them do it, it's indeed super intense.

Prophets! They actually predicted this situation as early as when the two collaborated on *Love O2O*.

They really know how to judge people!

At the same time, although it's really inappropriate to compare the two girls together, Bai Liang really couldn't help it.

Unlike Nazha, who likes to make herself like a boiled egg.

Although Reba also does underarm management, her hair is actually quite heavy... this can be seen from the volume of her hair.

Grab a handful, a thick handful of hair, making any style is exceptionally easy.

Correspondingly... it's the same.

Reba did ask Bai Liang if he minded; if he did, she could go and get it done.

Bai Liang: Don't~ What I want is Avatar.

Boiled eggs are delicious, but little hairy eggs aren't bad either; each has its own flavor.

"Hey, have you seen *Never Say Die*, which is still showing recently?"

Do we have to talk about this topic at a time like this?

Reba subconsciously frowned and pouted, but when she realized what Bai Liang's fingers were doing, she suddenly reacted, her face turning red.

She was instantly ashamed and angry: "You are not allowed to give me such an ugly nickname!"
