Chapter 518

Bai Liang's hairdressing skills were not excellent.

To be precise, he had never done this kind of work.

Even if he were asked to help with makeup, he could handle it, because he had really learned some, and had even done makeup for Reba on a variety show before.

But as for "haircutting," it really hit a blind spot in his skills.

But it didn't matter; the sister didn't care either.

She said she liked him being clumsy, we can take it slow~

As long as you don't hurt the sister, anything goes.

She even added a bonus!

"If you do a good job, you can leave a mark~"

"What does leaving a mark mean?" Bai Liang asked.

Da Mimi rolled her eyes at him and then handed over a marker.

Although the marker was quite thick, at first glance it seemed it could be used as a tool other than for writing.

Bai Liang guessed the same, because this marker wasn't new; it was something Da Mimi took out of her bag.

Carrying this thing around...

Without thinking of other uses, Bai Liang subconsciously took it and smelled it.

Before he could smell anything, he was slapped by the sister, "You little brat, what are you thinking?!"

A pen is, of course, for writing!

As for the serious use... the sister had special props.

Da Mimi was waiting for a chance to take them out and scare Bai Liang in the future; they were exactly the same as his~

As for now, cut hair properly!

So Bai Liang, with the mindset of exploring a new field, began to learn and master this brand-new skill.

As everyone knows, he learns things very quickly. Although his super brain always tells him "it's time to use your super luck," for fields he's interested in, Bai Liang is also willing to spend time and energy to study them thoroughly, and he masters them rapidly.

Meanwhile, the sister also gave very good feedback.

Almost didn't get it all over him.

But the result was good~

Cautious at first, but gradually became familiar...

When he finally used the marker, Bai Liang realized: Oh!

This thing is just like those intangible cultural heritage craftsmen making things; after finishing, they leave a stamp to tell others this is their work.

"Sister Mi, you don't want me to sign my name and have it tattooed on your stomach later, do you?" Bai Liang bit the pen cap and asked vaguely before writing.

The next second, Da Mimi kicked him, "Tattooed on my stomach, how can you think so beautifully? Writing a 'zheng' character is already good enough for you~"

Her kick didn't achieve anything; instead, it was grabbed by Bai Liang, who then pinched her foot and started "leaving a mark."

The contact between the marker tip and her skin made Da Mimi feel a bit itchy; she bit her lip, trembling slightly.

"Not done yet?"

"Just a moment~"

Bai Liang, whose creative desire was ignited, first wrote a 'zheng' character, then couldn't help but sign his name underneath, and after feeling there was still space, he drew a capybara there...

Yes, in the way of painting, Officer Bai also had some involvement.

Don't say, when he took a picture to show Da Mimi, that capybara drawn with a marker was vivid and lifelike.

It really made this sister have some strange thoughts: getting a small tattoo, it's not impossible~

Fortunately, this thought was quickly interrupted, because Bai Liang, whose creative desire was ignited, wasn't done yet.

He took the marker again and started messing around on Da Mimi's feet.

Da Mimi muttered to herself whether she was spoiling him too much—don't let him get an inch and take a mile~

However, thinking that Bai Liang didn't write any insulting words on her, like xn or something, she felt relieved.

Whatever, whatever, if he likes it, let him play.

I've said before that I love him and would give him my life, it's just writing a few words.

However, when Bai Liang actually wanted to create on her back, Da Mimi really couldn't help it, "What do you want to write on my back?"

"Loyalty to the country."

"Which character are you on now?!"

"Just started writing 'smoke of war rises, looking north at the rivers and mountains'..."

Da Mimi:???

She pushed Bai Liang away, ran to the mirror to take a look, and then found she had been played.

There was nothing on that fair and smooth back.

For this beautiful back, she wouldn't even let anyone cup it, how could she let this bastard Bai Liang write *Loyalty to the Country*.

After discovering she had been teased, Da Mimi pouted and couldn't help but lift her feet to take a look.

At this look, she was stunned.

Left foot 'Qingming', right foot 'Fanfu'.

What a 'Restore the Ming, Overthrow the Qing'!

"Do you believe I'll step these size 30-something feet on your face?!" Da Mimi cursed.

"Huh? Does this count as creative motivation?" Bai Liang asked curiously.

"I'll sit on you and crush you!"

Huh?

Isn't this still a reward~

Facts proved that the marker, besides writing, could have other uses.

Bai Liang quickly used it.

It's just that after Da Mimi felt it, she felt it was very good, but also told him she had bought new props recently and could try them out.

After all, those are professional props.

And when Bai Liang found that so-called professional prop from her suitcase, he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Damn evil little kitten!

What exactly did she do with her data? Open a shop?

Generally speaking, other girls' "exclusive treasures" are hidden tightly, and only a very few people might know.

But this evil little kitten's, it feels like you can see it everywhere...

Don't let her stop working in the entertainment industry later and change careers to sell this stuff.

"Sister Mi, let's just use the marker~" Bai Liang said after thinking about it.

"Unhuh, whatever you say."

Da Mimi didn't care much; at her age, she had bought many kinds of props, but it depends on who uses them.

Whatever props she uses herself can't produce the feeling of the marker in Bai Liang's hand.

Can only say it depends on the person.

If nothing goes wrong, Da Mimi won't throw this marker away; even if it runs out, she will carry it with her.

Becoming her favorite "exclusive treasure."

"Pfft!"

"What are you laughing at?"

"I just suddenly thought of something happy," Bai Liang quickly waved his hand.

However, Da Mimi is not a little girl; she saw his abnormality at a glance, "Confess honestly, otherwise today sister will tell you what 'cunzhe' is and make you uncomfortable!"

Such a serious "threat" made Bai Liang have to confess.

"Actually, I really thought of a happy thing. Didn't you sue the black fans before, Sister Mi~ that court recording..."

Da Mimi:...

You little brat!!!

"Hey, are you taking me for fun? What can I do? Other artists in the company are not promising, Reba is the same, she has to bring people, but the Yan boss in your company is really too hard. *Glory* can only put in one Zhu Xudan, and the others were scolded back by her."

Just these keywords awakened her memory.

That trial against the black fans didn't have any warning effect; instead, it let her black fans have a carnival.

It even made an insulting nickname of hers famous.

That nickname was... Bald Chicken.

This word is, of course, used to mock her hairline; this is all the fault of that idiot Huang Zitao.

Two years ago, Da Mimi collaborated with Huang Zitao, one of the four returned sons, on a drama called *Negotiator*.

This drama's reputation wasn't great, but the data was quite good.

This can be considered Da Mimi's ability; as a first-line female star who has been popular for so many years, the reputation of many of her projects isn't great, but from investment to data results, they are often very eye-catching.

It's just that *Negotiator*'s reputation collapsed particularly badly, opening at 4. , and now it's only a 3-something rating, definitely counting as the worst of the worst.

But it doesn't matter, at this stage Da Mimi doesn't care, she only wants results.

However, it was this drama that she was quite satisfied with the results of that contributed a dark history to her acting career.

In the drama, she was teased by Huang Zitao, who lifted her messy bangs, instantly revealing a large, bright forehead, completely exposing her hairline crisis.

She was forced to go for a hair transplant.

But compared to Huang Zitao lifting her hair, causing her to have this dark history and corresponding insulting nickname, Bai Liang's operation was actually more outrageous.

Who mentions this kind of thing while in bed?

But after Da Mimi calmed down, she wasn't that angry, because she knew Bai Liang quite well and knew that he couldn't possibly mock her hairline suddenly.

The reason for the association could only be...

That's fine, anyway, others can't see it, and it was Bai Liang who helped shave it himself.

Although she wasn't angry anymore, Da Mimi's eyes rolled, "Unfair!"

"Huh?"

"Stand still! I'm going to shave yours too~"

Fairness, fairness, it's all about fairness!

Regarding this kind of thing, Bai Liang was of course resistant, but if the sister insists, it's not like he can't satisfy her.

Fortunately, the big sister is caring; seeing his "heroic sacrifice" posture, she finally just cut a small tuft to make a point.

However, for the next few days, Da Mimi was miserable.

On one hand, it was physical discomfort; brothers who have shaved their beards know that when the beard grows back after being shaved clean, it's very prickly.

The same applies to other places.

To avoid this problem, the best way is to go to a beauty salon every once in a while and use laser or similar methods to stop it from growing.

Nazha uses this method, so she has had no trouble in this regard from the beginning.

As for Da Mimi... want to scratch, it's too indecent; don't scratch, it's really uncomfortable!

This was just physical discomfort; she was here to guest star, but she felt like she had been taught a lesson in this crew.

For the two days she had been here, besides those guest scenes, she didn't watch other people's scenes and always lingered in Bai Liang's RV.

She had no interest in this drama; she came entirely for the person.

But after a whim to observe, she was truly silenced.

Damn, how come everyone's acting is better than hers?

Da Mimi had never acted in a Daylight Entertainment drama, even as a guest, because everyone's circles are different, and it's quite hard to integrate.

She, who once wanted to be a performing artist, felt the impact of what a performing artist is.

There are many good actors in the *Reset* crew, but the best one is definitely "Pot Aunt."

Like a volcanic eruption, the madness of a mother who lost her daughter, despair, manic, crazy...

With the acting of the actress Liu Dan who played Pot Aunt, if you changed to a trashier cast, everyone would be set off as rookies.

Fortunately, the main leads of the *Reset* crew are not rookies.

The worst one is Da Mimi who came to guest star.

After watching Pot Aunt act in two scenes, she was silenced, and the local area became even more itchy...

Turning to look at Zhao Jinmai, the acting performance of this eighteen-year-old girl naturally couldn't compare to the explosive nature of Pot Aunt Liu Dan, but for the interpretation and expression of the character, it also made Da Mimi couldn't help but rub her eyes.

Although her own acting had become stiff, she could still see how others were acting.

This little girl who was timid in front of her was really good in the play!

Are young people today so fierce?

Zhao Jinmai: Sister, check out the top student of the Central Academy of Drama. Consequently, Da Mimi became even more itchy.

That night, she could only beg Bai Liang to fix it for her again, otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.

The smart classmate Mai Mai discovered this point very wittily, and then she was no longer silent.

Whenever she had time, she would seriously talk to Bai Liang about the plot and discuss acting.

The kind that is fully devoted, not just pretending.

This time it was Da Mimi's turn to be unable to get a word in, being slightly checked by the little girl.

Of course, it wasn't because the little girl was so powerful, but mainly because of the itchiness, she was irritable inside.

Da Mimi's scenes were actually finished on the fourth day of joining the crew.

Since she was guest starring, any crew that does things a bit properly will prioritize filming their scenes first.

And there were no high standards or requirements.

This was also one of the reasons Da Mimi felt hit; she initially thought it was because she acted skillfully and well enough.

As a result, she turned around and found that they were letting her off easy.

And Zhao Jinmai thought wickedly in her heart: This sister should be leaving, right?

Da Mimi: I'm not leaving!

Because Xiaobao is here.

Nazha entrusted someone to escort Xiaobao to the crew.

Sign the contract first when joining the crew.

Director Qi can take the wild dogs in the village to be police dogs, and Bai Liang can also take his own cat to act in various plays; Xiaobao's salary exceeds that of some third-line stars.

From a certain perspective, this can also be considered pulling strings openly.

But no one would raise any objections.

And Xiaobao is also a cat who has seen the world, not afraid of the camera at all; it is also a top-tier player among pet actors!

Da Mimi, who had a cat to pet, became much more stable in her mentality; this little dumpling is indeed cute! And the personality is super great!

Xiaobao, who has been with many young ladies, quite likes Da Mimi, because Da Mimi is really big, and she is willing to let it step on her to its heart's content.

Seeing Xiaobao's little paws that were so happy they were blooming, Bai Liang simply let Da Mimi take care of the little thing for him.

It can be considered a two-way rush.

However, she also had a small "sequela"; touching Xiaobao's soft fur, she always wondered what it would be like if it were shaved?

Bai Liang: If you shave it, Nazha will fight you to the death.

And shaving Xiaobao's fur, what's the difference between that and cutting off a female star's hair?

When classmate Dudu shaved her head for *Better Days*, she cried until her eyes were swollen, and Bai Liang coaxed her for a long time.

Da Mimi indicated that she just had a whim, not that she really wanted to shave such a cute kitten.

If she really did that, wouldn't she become an old witch with a dark heart~

However, although shaving wasn't possible, this little thing could still play some other roles.

For example, showing off~

"Xiaobao?! Is this Xiaobao?"

"Yes, isn't it cute~"

Da Mimi was video chatting with Reba in the RV, and gently pinched Xiaobao's paws, letting it greet Reba.

She originally just wanted to show off, but Reba on the other side started having crooked ideas.

"Sister Mi, have you finished filming your guest scenes?"

Hearing this, Da Mimi paused, "Still a few left, why?"

"You secretly take Xiaobao away later and bring it to me."

Da Mimi:...

That's really a good idea!

Yuan Li stealing a dog is still a meme, and the reason Yuan Li stole the dog was because she also paid for the dog and spent money to raise it, so from a certain perspective, it's not stealing.

But this idea of Reba's is definitely stealing, no doubt about it!

Besides petting this cat, she hadn't made any contributions.

"If you like cats, just buy one yourself," Da Mimi complained.

As a result, Reba shook her head, "I don't like cats, I like Xiaobao."

Da Mimi: You clearly like Guli Nazha's things; what you want to snatch is more than just a cat~

But one thing to say, this aggressive mentality of fighting for things made Da Mimi quite envious.

She herself, anyway, couldn't have this kind of spirit anymore.

Not to mention, these two have been fighting for several years, and thinking about it now, it's quite admirable.

Although the main factor for Nazha and Reba fighting had long changed from "snatching a man" to the route competition of top female stars.

After all, "snatching a man" is really too ugly, and both teams had long cooperated to twist the rhythm.

They are a bit like Fan Bingbing and Li Bingbing back then.

But their respective teams and companies still know what's going on; thinking about it, it feels outrageous—damn, they've been fighting for years and still haven't decided a winner, and they actually have to continue fighting.

But they also feel it's reasonable.

In these few years, the person they were snatching was also constantly "evolving," really filling in wherever there was a lack.

Before, some people were still blabbering about Bai Liang being a male model, his family conditions must not be great, etc. Now, looking at it, bullshit, this is a young master experiencing life.

Really became a perfect person.

Under these circumstances, if Nazha and Reba "quit," I'm afraid someone would immediately fill their ecological niche.

I don't know why, Da Mimi suddenly thought of that pair of "slutty chicken" sisters who had quite a presence before.

At that time, when she heard this word, she almost laughed out loud.

This is definitely a title that can rival her "Bald Chicken" nickname, definitely counting as a black nickname.

However, when this title first came out, neither of them was very good; of course, they aren't very good now either, at least compared to Reba and Nazha, they are still far behind.

But the routines these two play are actually very similar to Reba and Nazha; if it's about filling a position, it's really these two who are the most suitable.

Shaking her head, she threw these messy thoughts to the back of her mind; after all, who fills the position has nothing to do with her, Da Mimi.

Moreover, neither of these two Xinjiang girls has any intention of taking a step back.

Reba also said Nazha is a stubborn donkey, but she herself isn't much better.

Always feel that sooner or later they will make a big move.

The emotions of pulling and confronting for so long, plus the relationship with Bai Liang, these two girls will definitely set off a big thunder.

This can be considered the sixth sense of Da Mimi, who has been through it.

Looking up at Bai Liang, who was still chatting and laughing about the script with Zhao Jinmai, Da Mimi thought about it but didn't "snitch" to Reba.

If you have to mention everything like this, you really can't finish being jealous.

Hmm... she can help a little bit~

One week later!

Zhao Jinmai:...

Damn, this is too much!

As a young girl, swearing still affects her image, but Zhao Jinmai really couldn't help it.

Da Mimi's scenes were finished long ago, but she just lingered and wouldn't leave!

When she came, it was fine, saying she would stay for four or five days, but now it's been almost half a month!

Zhao Jinmai originally counted the days on her fingers, feeling there was something to look forward to, but who could have thought that the senior would be so lacking in martial virtue?

A few days ago, Da Mimi suddenly disappeared from the crew, and Zhao Jinmai thought she had left, just about to run to find Bai Liang excitedly.

As a result, she ran into Da Mimi, who had bought a bunch of things, in the hotel lobby.

She even enthusiastically invited her to have dinner together~

Dinner isn't important, but Zhao Jinmai saw the pile of things Da Mimi bought, feeling that the other party was starting to live in the crew...

Simply unreasonable~

The female lead of this drama is her! The total expected schedule is only a little over a month.

As a result, Da Mimi, who is just a guest star, sticks to Bai Liang all day, looking like she's going to stick until the drama is finished.

Are first-line female stars so free?

Da Mimi indicated that of course she isn't that free, but time is something that can always be squeezed out.

And the day Zhao Jinmai saw her leave, she actually had a commitment she couldn't push, and she came back after finishing it.

However, due to the influence, Da Mimi indeed no longer appeared on the crew, and many people really thought she had left.

Not many people knew she was still holed up in the crew hotel.

People's joys and sorrows are not connected; classmate Mai Mai is sulking, classmate Mimi feels like she's going to die of pleasure~

Just staying in the hotel, playing games when free, and when the time comes, a handsome guy with a great body and six-pack abs comes to provide her with powerful impact and complete relaxation, then she sleeps beautifully, and gets up the next day to continue playing.

Such a cycle is truly addictive.

Da Mimi originally planned to stay for at most a week, but she really couldn't bear to leave.

Some rich women in certain circles have offered Bai Liang a price of nearly eight figures, just wanting to invite him to dinner or something.

From this point, Da Mimi feels that the value of her trip is almost over 100 million.

Fortunately, Zhao Jinmai's depression is not alone, because there are many people depressed because of Bai Liang.

The head-level movie *The Eight Hundred* released in August, after being messed up by Yanzi and Xiaoshui, presented a... result that should still be able to break even.

The cost of this movie, according to various parties, should be around 500 to 600 million; calculated at 600 million, it needs about 1. billion in box office to break even.

*The Eight Hundred* did it!

From the box office trend from release to now, the final result of 1. billion box office is not a problem, and it's even possible to exceed 2 billion.

But don't even think about the 3 billion-plus of the original timeline.

Not to mention the two troublemakers Yanzi and Xiaoshui who were trying hard to create rhythm and black material, just in terms of reputation, *The Eight Hundred* had its luck stolen.

A work to save the market!

Originally this title belonged to *The Eight Hundred*, the first head-level movie after the cinema resumed work. This title is risky because it needs to explore the market after resumption, and if one is not careful, it is possible to hit one's head and bleed.

So the scheduling of *The Eight Hundred* was actually very particular, choosing the August slot, letting some cannon fodder be released first to pave the way.

As a result, among these cannon fodder, a Bai Liang emerged!

*Better Days* definitely can't compare to *The Eight Hundred* in terms of production cost, but it can still be regarded as a head-level movie of the same grade.

Because its male lead is named Bai Liang, the current number one in movie box office, with full appeal!

In the situation of seizing the initiative, it almost snatched all the luck of *The Eight Hundred*, making it just a normal blockbuster released after the market recovered.

Then the "selfless help" given by major theater chains and related media was much less.

After all, Bai Liang had already proven the vitality of the market one step ahead, or rather, as a work to save the market, he had already brought up the market.

Then what else could *The Eight Hundred* do? Others aren't doing charity~

Just be happy if you can recover the cost or make a small profit.

In fact, just this result that looks like it can hit 2 billion box office makes many people very dissatisfied.

A bit too much!

Guan Hu is still being framed high, with a bunch of people spitting on him.

If his box office is really that high, the people who spray him will feel very uncomfortable, always having a feeling that we are working so hard, and this bastard can still ride on our heads and shit.

Fortunately, the box office of *Better Days* has infinitely approached 3 billion, and it is still squirming there, but it can definitely suppress *The Eight Hundred*.

And many people who don't like Guan Hu started to show off their *Better Days* movie tickets.

This rhythm was obviously led by Yanzi, the operation was a bit obvious, but it was exceptionally effective.

And at this time node, the nomination list for this year's Hundred Flowers and Golden Rooster Awards finally came out!
