The filming location for RB this time was the famous Sixth Street in Beijing. It is famous for its multi-national architecture, beautiful and romantic scenery, and collection of boutiques and famous stores. It has always been very popular.
Their current location was in the leisure area of Sixth Street, in a European pastoral style cafe.
According to RB’s request, the theme of this promotional video was very interesting. The filming started since Si Huang put on makeup. In addition to the scene where she changed clothes, there were also conversations between her and the staff, street photography, makeup touch-ups, or interactions with passers-by. It would all be shot, and then it would be edited later to make a story that was the same as last year’s promotional film.
The theme of this story followed the ending of last year’s promotional video – the boy graduated from school and started working, became a model, and started a new chapter in his life! This kind of promotional video interspersed reality and fantasy. If done well, it would attract the masses. The focus was on the protagonist and post-production editors.
Si Huang changed into RB’s latest spring clothes. When she opened the door, she saw the photographer pointing a huge camera at her. She smiled slightly and walked out.
Since the theme this time was ‘work’ and the profession was the true performance of ‘model’, she should enter the role of ‘model’ from the moment she came to this place.
“How are you preparing? Can we start?” Yang Bixian came over and asked her.
Si Huang responded calmly: “Hasn’t it already started?”
Yang Bixian was startled. Looking at her expression, he secretly suppressed the fear that rose again and showed a trusting smile, “Yes, we will shoot in this cafe first.”
Next, Si Huang said little. Following the photographer’s instructions, she walked to the coffee shop and leaned in front of the sofa for a while. Every expression or movement would be still for one to two seconds for people to take pictures, and the flash kept flashing. Her body seemed to shimmer. After a while, she was sitting at the coffee table again, and someone brought her a cup of freshly ground coffee. She turned her head and nodded respectfully at the person. She could even perform such a simple movement with incomparable grace.
Yang Bixian’s voice sounded again, “This coffee is of the same brand as the last time. It has a cooperation with RB. Take a few sips and reveal the logo on the cup.”
Si Huang glanced at him with a half-smile, then raised one of his long legs to rest on the other leg, then she picked up the coffee cup and asked lazily: “This is another advertisement. Do I get paid?”
“Of course.” Yang Bixian looked at her with admiration, looking at her as if he was looking at a perfect piece of artwork.
“Okay.” Si Huang raised the corners of her lips, maintained the leisurely and lazy posture, brought the coffee to her lips, took a slow sip, and smiled nostalgically when she put it down, “It does taste like that, a bit bitter, it’s rare that the taste is very soft, really like a delicate girl with a bit of a bad temper.” She gently stroked the edge of the porcelain cup with her fingers, raised her side face and asked Yang Bixian: “After work, can you give me some to take home?”
“Of course, I think UC will be happy to provide it to you for free.” Yang Bixian sighed with a smile.
He could clearly see that Si Huang didn’t drink the coffee at all, but she acted just like the real thing. Look at her expression and her words… Yang Bixian could already predict the popularity of UC’s coffee, even if they knew what Si Huang said may just be an advertisement, but there would definitely be a group of people willing to buy this coffee just for the tenderness in Si Huang’s eyes, the nostalgic look on his eyebrows, and the doting look on his lips after Si Huang drank the coffee.
Oh, my day! He had obviously drunk it and knew what it tasted like. But when he saw this scene, even he was tempted to buy a drink and try it!
This kid was really amazing!
Next, Si Huang changed a few more sets of clothes, left the cafe, walked down the street to take pictures, and entered a flower shop.
When she was wearing a slim-fitting black men’s simple spring dress and leaning against the street lamp, preparing to go up the stone stairs at the intersection, her cell phone rang.
Si Huang heard the familiar ringtone and turned to look at Yu Xi.
What Yu Xi was holding was her mobile phone. After getting approval from Yang Bixian, he took the mobile phone to Si Huang.
The caller ID was Li Jiming.
“You can take it.” Yang Bixian stood next to the photographer and shouted to Si Huang.
Si Huang understood what he meant, and still stood where she was, pressing the answer button, “Hello.”
“We agreed before that we would all get together when you take leave? Are you fooling the brothers?” Li Jiming’s voice pretended to be dissatisfied.
Si Huang: “I was going to call you when the work got over, calling you here now is useless.”
“It’s this brother’s pleasure to wait in vain. Where are you on Sixth Street?”
Si Huang heard that the voice on his side was a bit mixed, he should be in the car, so she glanced at the surrounding environment and said, “I’m not familiar with it.”
“Just tell me there are any special shops or signs nearby.”
Si Huang casually mentioned the building opposite, and then heard Li Jiming said, “Wait, we’ll be there soon.” The phone was hung up.
“Are your friends coming over?” Yang Bixian asked after watching her put down her phone.
“Yeah.” Si Huang handed the phone to Yu Xi.
Yang Bixian smiled and said: “Your friends must be all handsome men and beauties. If you don’t mind, they can join in the filming.”
He thought that Si Huang’s friends would be classmates from his former art school, and they could do a friendly appearance, showing their face in front of the camera or something and would definitely be happy to do so.
Si Huang: “You can ask yourself when they come.”
As a result, Si Huang changed into another set of clothes and a new hairstyle. Four or five minutes later, Li Jiming and the others came.
He didn’t come alone, it should be said that he came with a group, and the way he appeared was very high-profile.
A series of famous brand sports cars attracted the attention of a large number of people with the hum of their engines.
Finally, they stopped in a row on the side of the road. Li Jiming took the lead in opening the door and walked out. He raised his hand and shouted to Si Huang: “Hi! It’s not easy to meet you, Mr. Si!”
Si Huang crossed her arms over his chest, her face expressionless. She looked at the group of people who got out of the car with an expression on his face, “Treating it as your place?”
“I’m obviously here to support you!” Li Jiming laughed and said, “It’s a good show, isn’t it?”
Si Huang shook her head and laughed, and praised him, “It’s high-profile enough.”
“Come on, Nana, are you still shy? Come out quickly, weren’t you clamoring to see Si Huang just now?” Li Jiming went back to his sports car and shouted to the girl in the passenger seat inside.
“Shut up!” A voice shouted, and then the door of the passenger seat was opened, and a girl wearing a fresh aqua dress came out.
She must be under twenty years old, either eighteen or nineteen years old. She had fair skin and a beautiful appearance. She looked 60 or 70% similar to Li Jiming. One could imagine her identity.
Li Jiming pulled her to Si Huang and introduced directly: “My sister’s name is Li Luona. You can call her Nana like me. She is one of your fans. I heard that she has joined your knights.”
“Shut up!” Li Luona was anxiously waiting for Li Jiming. Her voice was clear and her scolding was not too sharp or annoying.
“Hello.” Si Huang greeted her politely.
Li Luona’s face tightened, she turned to look at her, and whispered in a reserved voice: “Hello…Actually, everything my brother said is true, but I think it’s better for me to speak for myself.”
Si Huang smiled and said nothing.
This gentle attitude, neither enthusiastic nor cold, made Li Luona gradually relax and smile more naturally at her.
Ji Xiang also got out of the car and walked over, asking, “How long will it take for you to finish work?”
Si Huang said, “It’s almost time.” According to the clothes that had been prepared, she had almost changed into all of them. As she spoke, she looked at Yang Bixian, who was standing aside a little blankly, with questioning eyes.
Li Jiming and the others also followed her gaze and saw not only Yang Bixian but also the camera facing them, “Huh? Does this include us?”
His expression did not look happy or angry. The photographer didn’t know their identities, so he smiled and responded politely: “The effect is very good. It will be even better after post-editing. It will definitely attract young people!”
Yang Bixian came back to his senses and looked at the young people in front of him. There was a moment of panic. The young master and young lady of the Li family of the Wanheng Group and the young master of the Ji family of the Honeycomb Game Company were all children of wealthy families, and they were not existences that RB could compete with.
Si Huang not only knew them, but also seemed to have a good relationship with them!? The other party’s attitude also showed respect for Si Huang as an equal!
Yang Bixian hurriedly came forward and explained to Li Jiming: “This promotional video is a bit special. It is in a realistic style. It was originally intended to capture Si Huang’s interactions with his friends in real life, but since it is Mr. Li, we will cut it out.”
How could they take shots of these wealthy sons casually? If this matter was not handled properly, they may get into serious trouble!
“Huh?” Li Jiming rolled his eyes and said with a smile: “It’s okay, no need to cut, we already said we are here to support Mr. Si! Ji Xiang, what do you think?”
Ji Xiang nodded, “Well, we are Si Huang’s friends.”
The two leaders had no objections, so naturally the men and women behind them also had no objections.
Yang Bixian was shocked again and looked at Si Huang with incomprehensible eyes.
Even Fenghua Entertainment in its heyday may not have been taken seriously by these wealthy families. Now that Fenghua Entertainment had collapsed and Fenghuang Entertainment was starting over, Si Huang could still allow these two wealthy young masters to show such favor. It was simply incredible!
“Young Master Si, we have all sacrificed our appearance for you, shouldn’t you also express your gratitude?” Li Jiming reached out and wanted to put someone’s shoulder as usual.
Si Huang easily grabbed his wrist and said with a smile: “Whatever you want to eat and play at night is all one me.”
“Tsk, we don’t lack the money.” Li Jiming remembered that she didn’t like to have excessive physical contact with others. After touching it, he consciously retracted his hand and pulled Li Luona beside him, “If you are really serious, just have fun with my sister. It’s rare for her to go out once, so I made a promise to her that she can go back with all your heart!”
“Brother!” Li Luona said to Si Huang with a helpless expression showing “There’s nothing you can do about him,” “Your Majesty, don’t listen to his nonsense. Just do your thing and I’ll watch.”
Li Jiming yelled: “Your brother sacrificed himself for your benefit, and you turned your arm outward?”
Li Luona: “I told you to shut up!”
Si Huang looked at the brother and sister getting along, “Ha…”
Both brother and sister Li looked over.
Si Huang’s eyebrows softened and he said with a smile: “It turns out that Young Master Li is still a sister con.”
Not only did Li Jiming not feel ashamed, but he admitted with a serious face, “I just have this biological sister, so if I don’t care for her, who will I care for? Let’s talk first. Okay, I asked you to play with her, but you are not allowed to play with feelings!”
This kind of Li Jiming made Si Huang appreciate it even more, “Don’t worry.”
This meant a promise. Li Luona blinked her eyes in surprise, then looking at Si Huang’s clear and clean eyes, she also laughed.
A group of handsome men and beauties, standing together and laughing and chatting together were so pleasing to the eye. Yang Bixian gestured to the photographers, indicating that they should continue shooting, and once again sighed in his heart about his good luck!
How could Si Huang, who could fit into the circle of wealthy children, be a creature in the pool!
An RB spring fashion promotional video had the participation of this group of young children from wealthy families. Was there any better advertising effect than this?
All this was because of Si Huang!
Yang Bixian looked at Si Huang as if he were looking at a money tree and thought to himself: What he said was right, Si Huang is RB’s money tree, but it’s a pity that this money tree has only been signed for two years!
The next filming changed the original plan. The filming crew cooperated with Si Huang and a group of people went to go shopping on Sixth Street. It ended at almost 4 p.m.
Si Huang and Yang Bixian separated and he took off his makeup first. After hearing Li Jiming and the others say they were going to a familiar shop for massage, Si Huang waved her hand to express that she was tired and went to a room to rest alone. She would invite them to a dinner party in the evening.
Yu Xi accompanied her into the room, reported the schedule to her, and advised: “Drink less at night. We have to rush to the celebration banquet of “The Emperor’s Path” tomorrow. Be careful of bad photos being taken.”
“Well, I will pay attention.” Si Huang responded.
Yu Xi was still reassured by her guarantee, knowing that some social activities should not be postponed, not to mention that it was natural for young people to like to play, he left the room and gave her some alone time to rest, “Call me in advance when you want to come back, I’ll go pick you up.”
….
7 p.m.
Si Huang changed into plain clothes that looked low-key and elegant, put on a pair of plain glasses, and went to the underground parking lot to get into Li Jiming’s car.
This outfit made Li Jiming laugh. Si Huang’s light look through the glasses instantly killed him – no matter how ordinary some people dressed, they could still shine as long as they were willing.
This group of young people were more familiar with the capital than she was. They drove around and finally arrived at a private club.
The luxurious decoration and location in a prime location in the capital meant that its annual membership fee must be high.
Li Jiming booked a box and took the lead to go in.
Although Si Huang had mentioned paying for the dinner, Li Jiming had no intention of actually letting her book the place.
“There’s something fun tonight!” Li Jiming walked in front, and side by side with him were Si Huang, Ji Xiang, and Li Luona. He was mainly talking about them, “Fortunately, Si Huang, you asked for leave today. If it had been even one day later, it would have made you miss out on the wonderful things.”
