[Actor? ! 】

Brown's scandal not only involved him in a storm of public opinion, but also faced investigations from relevant departments.

Director Nordin terminated the contract with him without hesitation.

Brown's father, Big Brown, came to Director Notting's studio angrily, and the two had a fierce quarrel.

After leaving Director Notting's studio, Big Brown accepted media interviews, threatening that his son had been treated unfairly in the crew, and that he would withdraw his investment in "Wanderer".

As a result, "Wanderer" will face a huge funding gap.

Although Director Notting is well-known, he is not a "prolific" director, in other words, he does not have much money.

Among the three partners in the studio, Ravenclaw's screenwriter is the poorest, followed by Nordin's director. Stephen is still rich, but he has already invested a lot of money in this film. As an adult, he doesn't impulsively put all his eggs in one basket.

As for other investors, they are even more cautious. After all, so many things happened before "Wanderer" even started. People take such a big risk.

Just when Director Nuoding was at a loss, Shen Lei came to his studio, and he put an investment agreement on Director Nuoding's desk.

Director Nuoding was silent for a long time, and shook his head, "You know, I can't break the rules and let you play a certain role just because of your investment, even Little Brown participated in the audition and got everyone's approval. "

Shen Lei smiled, "It's exactly what I want. I will fight for the role, and I don't mind buying it with money."

Director Nuo Ding laughed, and did not doubt Shen Lei's words, "Then, why did you invest such a large sum of money?"

"For my partner." Shen Lei said sincerely, "His biggest wish when he was in school was to make a movie of yours. You have seen his strength. I think your cooperation will definitely present a masterpiece. I I just hope that this film can be filmed safely and steadily.”

Director Nuoding looked at him and said with a smile, "Your English has improved a lot."

He raised his hand, and asked Shen Lei to sit on the small bamboo chair by the window—it was the one that Stephen sat on when he persuaded him to give Shen Lei a chance.

This seems to be a sign that Director Nuoding's impression of Shen Lei has changed from a bad actor who bought a role with money to an investor who gives money when he needs it.

The two drank black tea and talked about the details of the investment for a whole afternoon.

After Shen Lei left, Director Nuo Ding looked at the generous agreement and couldn't help muttering: "Are Chinese actors so rich?"

Assistant John pushed his glasses and said solemnly: "Haven't you heard? Mr. Shen is well-known in China as a rich second generation."

"Oh I got it."

Director Nuoding nodded sincerely, thinking that it is necessary to read gossip when recruiting actors in the future.

***

Because of the accident caused by Hess and Brown, Shen Lei's language assessment was postponed until the end of January.

Early in the morning, Tang Song personally cooked two eggs, peeled the shells and put them in a bowl for Shen Lei to eat with a chopstick.

Shen Lei couldn't laugh or cry: "Baby, this means [-] points? What if the chopsticks are behind?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you forgot that Aunt Yu did this when she took the single-entry professional course, and finally passed the exam."

Shen Lei tapped his daughter-in-law's little head, "Okay, okay, I must take the exam today."

Only then was Tang Song satisfied, and ran to the children's room to wake Yun Yun up, and helped Xing Xing check the things he needed for school.

Taking advantage of his inattention, Shen Lei stuffed two sandwiches into his stomach like a thief.

The maid's eyes widened in amazement. After working for so many years, this was the first time she saw the male master eating secretly.

Shen Lei explained humorously: "If you want to ensure family harmony, sometimes you have to obey the law and violate the law."

The maid couldn't understand his Chinglish, so she just covered her mouth and smiled.

The family went out in such a lively manner.

Fortunately, I went to kindergarten in the community. There are only a dozen children in such a large park. There are more teachers and childcare experts than students. All of them are highly educated, with first-class character and teaching ability. Fortunately, I am learning while playing here. Very happy, Tang Song is also very relieved.

After letting go of luck, Tang Song accompanied Shen Lei to Director Nuoding's studio.

They arrived 15 minutes early and pulled into the parking lot with Stephen's car.

"Shen, how are you getting ready?" Stephen asked with a smile.

"It's okay." Shen Lei said lightly, "I hope it can pass."

"It should look good." Stephen smiled charmingly, "I know that Chinese people have always been modest."

The three of them chatted while walking, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

On the third floor, Stephen entered Director Nuoding's office, while Shen Lei and Tang Song waited in the rest area.

Tang Song gossips with Shen Lei: "Everyone is saying that Stephen will take over as the leading actor. It would be great if this is the case. I have seen Stephen act in a play, and he is better than Little Brown."

Shen Lei shook his head, "The age is not appropriate, unless Mr. Ravenclaw modifies the setting for him."

"It's not impossible." Tang Song thought of everyone's recent discussions, "After all, there has been no news of Director Nuoding's re-casting. I think there should be an unofficial decision."

Shen Lei hooked his shoulders with a smile, "If you want me to say, it's more likely to fix you than him."

Tang Song shook his head, thinking about such a thing is impossible.

It was his first time working with director Noting. Not to mention his acting skills and experience compared with Stephen, even Little Brown was a lot behind him. He was lucky to play the role of a wise man. How could he play the leading role?

The assessment started before a cup of coffee was finished.

Surprisingly, the interviewer was not Director Nuoding and others, but a very professional language test teacher.

Their scoring standards are not based on the correctness of individual topics, but a set of complex analysis tables.

Shen Lei answered four questions, talked with the examiner for 5 minutes, and came out in less than 10 minutes.

After another ten minutes, the examiner announced the result.

"Mr. Shen's daily conversation level is B+, the reserve level for American slang and colloquialism is C-, and the professional knowledge level for film and television is A. Finally, it is determined that he can communicate smoothly at work, will not conflict due to communication problems, and can pass through the culture smoothly. The hostile period in the shock, and can adapt to different work systems and habits as soon as possible'..."

After the result was announced, the creative team applauded collectively.

Director Nuo Ding took the initiative to extend his hand to Shen Lei, "Congratulations, and welcome."

"Thank you." Shen Lei breathed a sigh of relief, remembering the days of getting up early and staying late for more than a month, as if he had gone through the college entrance examination again.

Having grown up so big, he has worked hard twice in his studies. The first time was to go to the same university as Tang Song, and the second time is now, to act in the same play as Tang Song.

Tang Song was very moved, and he had a deeper understanding of Director Nuoding's rigorous work attitude.He thought that the next six months must be very pleasant.

When this thought came to Shen Lei, he just saw it, and Tang Song was shocked, and added a sentence-of course, the happiest thing is to be able to work with his own man!

***

The training camp was over, and the leading actor hadn't been finalized yet, so the crew had a week's vacation.

The Spring Festival is just around the corner, and Shen Lei and Tang Song are discussing going back to China for the New Year.

It's just that the time is a bit tight, and I have two children with me, so coming and going is bound to be a toss.It's impossible not to go back, Shen Tiancheng can say that, the Song family members will definitely feel uncomfortable.

Tang Song would rather make troubles on his own than make his elders feel uncomfortable.

Unexpectedly, before their departure, the elders came silently.

This season is the coldest time in New York. The three old people carry simple luggage, their hair is dyed with hoarfrost, their cheeks and nose are red from the wind, and their faces are tired after a long-distance flight.

Even so, the love and longing in their eyes have not diminished by half.

Tang Song was dumbfounded when he opened the door, "Dad, Mom, you..."

At this time, the sky will be bright, Tang Song's hair is curled up, his pajamas are messy, and there are spots of hickeys on his neck.

The three elders hailed a taxi and came over quietly. They originally wanted to surprise the children, but they regretted seeing Tang Song's appearance.

——I always feel that something is bothering me.

Shen Lei hugged Tang Song's waist from behind, and opened the door to the widest, "Dad, Mom, it's cold outside, come in quickly."

The servants were up early, the fire was burning brightly in the fireplace, and the whole room was warm.The smell of baking bread came from the kitchen, and the two children liked to drink corn chowder, which the chef boiled early.

Tang Lili looked around, then nodded lightly, her heart that had been worrying about it for so many days finally let go.

Shen Lei supported Song Changhe to sit on the sofa, and Tang Song took the suitcase from Shen Tiancheng's hand.

The five members of the family just looked at each other like this, and there seemed to be thousands of words to say for a while, but they didn't know where to start.

In the end, it was Song Changhe who cleared his throat and said, "It's not too late for you to work outside. I discussed it with your uncle. Don't go back this year for the Chinese New Year. When work is over, take Yunyun to the old house to look up the genealogy." , and the family will get together again at that time."

Tang Lili also smiled and said, "I thought we wouldn't be able to see each other this year, but my in-laws thought about it and asked us to come here. Don't bother us, you two, we're here to see our grandson."

"Mom, I don't hate you, but I'm really happy." Shen Lei rubbed Tang Song's head, "Look at Tang Tang, he's crying."

Tang Song didn't really cry, but it was about the same.

He didn't expect the clan to make such a decision, and it was the first time in so many years.Especially for the direct line, apart from the task of not leaving, otherwise, even in Antarctica, they have to go back to celebrate the New Year.It seems that the rules of the family are also slowly changing.

He didn't even expect that his parents would come to New York all the way, especially his father, who was such an old-fashioned and well-behaved person, that he was willing to spend Chinese New Year abroad for him this time.

Reuniting with family members in a foreign country has doubled the joy value for Tang and Song Dynasties.

In the past few days before the new year, he and Shen Lei took the three elders to many places, saw many beautiful scenery, and felt the customs and customs different from those in China.

What's interesting is that the parents' English is better than Shen Lei's, especially Tang Lili, who wears an elegant cheongsam, exquisite makeup, and a standard British accent. The restaurants on Five Avenues can attract countless amazing eyes.

Under the influence of the adults, Xingxing and Luck learned to be calm and confident, not noisy, like two little gentlemen.

The elders are relaxed and happy, Tang and Song are also very heartwarming, even when they were in China, they have never been together for such a long time.

It's New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye, and you can feel the New Year's atmosphere even in Brooklyn.

Chinese restaurants hung up red lanterns, mobile phones were filled with blessing text messages, and the backgrounds of major social platforms were also changed to bright red colors, and there was joy everywhere.

As usual, Shen Lei gave the servants a holiday, and the family had a warm New Year's Eve dinner.

The Song family pays attention to keeping the year old and turns on the lights in all rooms, which indicates that the coming year will be "upright and full of good fortune".

During the videos of Tang Song and Song Changyao, the old man specially instructed twice that he should follow the rules of the family even if he is abroad.

Tang and Song Dynasties responded again and again.

Except for the two little guys, the adults sat in front of the TV to watch the New Year.

After all, Song Changhe was old, and he had more energy and energy.After nine o'clock, he started to feel sleepy, his head covered with white hair staggered, and he almost knocked on the sofa.

In the eyes of Tang and Song, it is cute, pitiful, and a little funny.

If it was in the past, he would have persuaded him to take a rest "righteously and sternly", but Song Changhe would definitely refuse, and the father and son would probably fight each other.

However, now that Tang and Song have "grown up", they know how to deal with their stubborn father most effectively.

"I'm so sleepy, why don't you go to sleep first!" He yawned and leaned on Shen Lei's body, squinting his eyes with tears in them.

Tang Lili saw his little scheme and couldn't help laughing, no wonder fans said her son's acting skills are good, she has seen it today.

She glanced at Song Changhe, and said cooperatively: "I forgot what uncle told you? You can't break the rules."

"But I'm so sleepy~~" Tang Song grabbed Song Changhe's clothes and acted cheekily, "Dad, let's go to sleep secretly, don't complain to uncle."

Song Changhe snorted, and his tone was neither serious nor serious: "I have a son, but I am still so unruly, no one will make my in-laws laugh at me."

"It's okay." Shen Tiancheng said with a smile, "It's normal to be sleepy after a day of tiredness. Why don't we all go take a nap and wake up when it's close to midnight, it's not a violation of the rules."

Tang Song nodded again and again, "That's a good idea, I can be more energetic after a night's sleep."

Shen Lei also said: "When the time comes, we will also call it luck and luck, and pay New Year's greetings to the ancestral house. Uncle is also happy to see it."

After experiencing these things, Song Changhe's temper is no longer as stubborn as before.With so many people persuading him, he couldn't persist, so he nodded, "Set the alarm clock, don't miss it."

"okay!"

Tang Song immediately regained his energy, and ran from room to room, laying out the quilts of the elders properly, looking like a bouncing vicuna.

Song Changhe muttered dissatisfiedly: "Is this sleepy?"

Tang Lili rolled her eyes at him, "Are you really confused or fake?"

Song Changhe had a straight face, but there was a deep smile in his eyes.

They slept very peacefully that night, and both of them tacitly forgot about "setting the alarm clock".

Sleeping until five o'clock in the morning, the family tidied up and paid New Year's greetings to the ancestral house.

Xingxing and Luck dressed like a pair of lucky dolls kowtow to the elders through the screen.

Tang Song received countless ding ding dong dong notifications on his mobile phone, and red envelopes filled the screen like snowflakes.

Song Changyao asked with a smile: "Qingfeng, have you kept the old age?"

"Keep it, keep it." Tang Song nodded his head madly.

"It's fake at first glance." Song Changyao frowned, "It's fine if you don't keep your age, you can't save reunion dumplings, and you can't let your parents not even eat dumplings over there."

"Don't worry, uncle, it's already wrapped."

Tang Song pointed the camera at the dining table, on which there were fat and white dumplings, steaming hot and just out of the pot.

It was made by him and Shen Lei quietly after the elders fell asleep yesterday—mainly Shen Lei, Tang Song was responsible for playing with the dough and making trouble.

Song Changyao nodded with a smile, and said some words of encouragement unhurriedly as in previous years.

The sound of rumbling firecrackers came through the handset, accompanied by the earnest teachings of the elders, just like a family together.

After dinner, the family took a walk in the small garden, and sent a plate of hot dumplings to the neighbor who just woke up.

Tang Song's cell phone rang, it was the number of Director Nuoding's studio.

It was Stephen who spoke, "Tang, I heard that Chinese people will wake up early to greet each other during the Spring Festival. I think this time should not disturb you."

"No, Stephen, happy new year."

"Happy Chinese New Year!" Stephen said with a usual smile, "Today is a good day for Huaguo, so we decided to tell you the good news today——Don, if you want, we hope you can take over the role of Chris .”

Tang Song was taken aback, "What?"

"Congratulations, you have been selected as the leading actor in "Wanderer"."
