Hello Brother Li

"Good morning, Director Zhang."

 "Director Zhang."

 "Good morning, Director Zhang. "

 Early in the morning, Director Zhang from the Typical Chinese Restaurant programme team entered the shooting site.

 Most of the staff were already in place. A few photographers were muttering in the corner, discussing today's schedule.

 "Have the guests arrived yet? " Director Zhang asked the assistant director, taking a piece of cupcake from him for breakfast in the process.

 The assistant director counted the list, " They've already arrived, I'll let them rest at the arranged venue. Shall we start filming now?"

 "There's no rush."

 Director Zhang shook his head, "I'll go meet them first."

 This season of Typical Chinese Restaurant received a large amount of investment from the station, and the stars invited were of a different calibre than before.

 Even the film emperor Liu Jinsheng was invited.

 Director Zhang rushed to his destination while flipping through the information in his hand.

 There were seven guests in total, four men and three women.

 Three female guests, one of them was a middle-generation singer who was recently on tour and had accumulated a lot of popularity.

 Another was an over-the-top idol theatre actress who might have been hot five years ago, but then she couldn't get a good script and slowly became unappreciated.

 She is planning a comeback recently and has spent a lot of favours to get into this variety show.

 The last one was a member of a popular girl group by the name of Shu Hua. It was customary to invite a female idol for this kind of show.

 The male side of the cast was a bit simpler, with a clean slate of middle-aged and older film stars.

 The oldest and highest-ranking one was Liu Jinsheng.

 Just for some reason, he entered the group with the condition that a junior would also be involved.

 It was a young actor named Li Si.

 The profile, which Director Zhang had also read, was honestly mediocre and completely unqualified to enter this kind of top stream variety show.

 But since Liu Jinsheng had spoken, he didn't want to offend the film star.

 The big deal is that when the time comes to cut out Li Si's scenes, only a few minutes of symbolic, face to face is good.

 The filming site was located at the riverside, and at this time the river wind was blowing, adding a bit of coldness.

 Actors standing in twos and threes, at this point you can see the circle division.

 The two actresses stood together and chatted, leaving Shu Hua alone. This was the general contempt for female group idols in the circle.

 The four male actors formed a circle and appeared to be having a good time. But Liu Jinsheng was clearly more familiar with Li Si, and hooked shoulders with the latter.

 At this point, Liu Jinsheng told some kind of joke that made everyone burst out laughing.

 After watching for a few minutes, Director Zhang already had an idea in mind, so he walked towards the actors.

 The actors also noticed him and greeted him.

 "Brother Liu." Director Zhang smiled and greeted Liu Jinsheng first. Then came a few male and female actors of slightly lower status, and finally Li Si and Shu Hua.

 The circle puts seniority in high regard, this order cannot be messed up, otherwise it will offend people.

 After saying some un-nutritious scenes, Director Zhang called the filming team over, which was considered to be the official start of the film.

 The female singer was called Zhang Zi. She blinked her eyes and suddenly realised something, her face couldn't help but become a little ugly:" No, no one is helping us carry our luggage?"

 It was only then that everyone noticed that the female singer had brought at least five large suitcases of luggage.

 Although the others had a lot of luggage, it wasn't as exaggerated as hers.

 Everyone had read the itinerary before they came, and the main filming location for the show was on a boat.

 The boat would travel down the river, passing through five major cities and a dozen villages and towns.

 And their task was to open a restaurant on the boat. While hosting guests, they were to promote the local customs of the cities along the way.

 It looks well designed, but I didn't expect that the guests would be given a physical job first as soon as they came up.

 The boat is not far downstream from the pier.

 And where the guests are located, separated by a at least 500 steps of the hundred steps, that seems to be a local tourist attraction.

 Relying on the guests to carry the luggage down by themselves would take at least a morning's effort.

 After figuring out the situation, the stars wailed one after another.

 But this wailing was half-true and half-false.

 After all, they knew that the programme team would do anything for the sake of ratings. They had also been psychologically prepared.

 Director Zhang was coldly watching from the sidelines, and instead of looking at the others, he first placed his gaze on Li Si.

 To his disappointment, this newcomer that Liu Jinsheng had asked for by name to enter the group was expressionless, with no sense of variety at all.

 He shook his head slightly.

 With Li Si's current performance, even with Liu Jinsheng's guarantee, he would definitely be kicked out in the second episode.

 It wasn't unprecedented to ask a guest who had signed a contract to withdraw on his own. After all, everything is about ratings.

 It was thought that at that time, even Liu Jinsheng couldn't say much.

 The other guests were still talking at cross purposes, with the performance component being the majority.

 Under Director Zhang's gaze, Li Si moved and walked straight towards his suitcase.

 "Less talk, more action persona?"

 Seeing this scene, Director Zhang's impression of him changed slightly.

 The newcomer had just participated in the variety show, setting up this kind of persona would at least not backfire.

 Li Si only brought two pieces of luggage with him, both of which were packed inside a dark and heavy aluminium alloy case.

 Only to see him place one of the pieces of luggage at the top of the ladder and stand it up.

 Then he reached out his foot and kicked it.

 The suitcase slid in a beautiful arc in mid-air and hit the steps hard.

 "Bone on bone.

 The suitcase tumbled all the way, and finally stopped moving at the place where there were still about a hundred steps left.

 Director Zhang's brain went down on the spot.

 He had envisioned countless scenarios, but he had never thought that the guest of honour would kick his suitcase down.

 To vent his anger?

 Demonstrate?

 His mind was in a mess, completely unable to see the logic of Li Si's behaviour.

 The other guests were also stunned.

 Shu Hua was silent for a moment and calmly said, " Are you stupid? It's all broken inside like this."

 Director Zhang sniffed and drew a breath of cold air.

 He had thought that Li Si was already troublesome enough, but he didn't expect that Shu Hua would have to be even more bizarre.

 As soon as she came on the show, she called the other guests stupid. This kind of girl group idol was the first time he had seen in his career.

 Li Si didn't pay any attention to Shu Hua, but picked up the other box as well.

 Seeing that he was about to kick this luggage down as he did, Liu Jinsheng, who had finally reacted, hurriedly pulled him back.

 " Brother Li, the programme team is asking us to find a way to move these things to the ship, you can't do it like this."

 Liu Jinsheng persuaded bitterly.

 Seeing that an understanding person had finally jumped out, Director Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and inexplicably felt a little heartbroken.

 Li Si was obviously a little disappointed, but still obediently agreed. He pulled out his mobile phone, "It's hard to break anything I brought with me...okay okay. Hello? I need four labourers on my side."

 Director Zhang couldn't hold back any longer and stood out, "Paying people to hire help is forbidden!"

 "This is also forbidden?" Li Si looked at Director Zhang with an unbelievable gaze, as if he was the one messing around.

 Under Director Zhang's constant insistence, Li Si finally gave in:

 "Then it's okay if I call my little brother over to help, right? The person is nearby."

 Little brother? Oh, it means letting family members come and show their faces. It doesn't seem to be impossible ...

 Director Zhang struggled for a while, but finally agreed, "Alright, but don't let your brother mess up."

 Li Si grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "Of course not."

 Zhang Guide soon regretted it.

 On the river beach, a dozen strong men with tattooed dragons and tigers bowed low at the same time.

 "Hello Brother Li!!!"
