Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 284: The Man Mommy Likes

Mu Jingzhe, who was in the production team, kept hearing the crew members secretly scream and shout from the side. They whispered things like ‘Best Actor Shen is so handsome’, ‘Little Bai is so dashing’, ‘Best Actor Shen is really charming’, and ‘Little Bai is super cute’.

Mu Jingzhe nodded in agreement. That’s right, these were her heartfelt words. They were simply too handsome. She felt really blissful.

The atmosphere in the production team was excellent. Ever since Mu Jingzhe had entered the production team, she didn’t have to think about anything. She was able to look at handsome men at any time, so she felt that these days were really blissful.

Little Bei also felt happy. It had been a while since she had last acted. This time, she was full of energy and she felt lucky to meet two amazing actors. This made her feel even better, like a fish in water, and she had a kick acting alongside them.

More importantly, although there were crying scenes this time too, they were much fewer than last time. As the story was mainly hilarious and happy, Little Bei acted happily too.

Everything went smoothly, and Mu Jingzhe was in a splendid mood. While looking at the two handsome guys and Little Bei, Mu Jingzhe was filled with inspiration and could easily design a few sets of clothes.

However, these clothes didn’t have to be made. After all, the movie costumes were basically prepared in the early stages of production. They weren’t very likely to be changed, and some of them weren’t suitable. After all, a few of them were formal evening wear.

However, when inspiration came, how could one not draw? Therefore, Mu Jingzhe would occasionally take out the notebook she was carrying and casually draw. She would envy Little Bei on a daily basis.

Why was Mu Jingzhe envious of Little Bei? Because Little Bei was blissfully being piggybacked and hugged by the Best Actor. Many a time, she also wanted to become Little Bei. That scene was really wonderful and warm. Mu Jingzhe was certain that Little Bei would definitely become the object of many people’s envy in the future.

Little Bei was lucky to be working with such a charming and handsome duo at such a young age.

Little Bei also felt that this was awesome. She was an actress who could drive people, but she was even stronger when she met a strong opponent. Every time she acted, she felt immensely satisfied. Even though she was young, she wasn’t afraid of acting with the Best Actor. In fact, they were evenly matched.

Little Bei was cute to begin with, and her acting was incredible, so Shen Han and Xiao Bai liked her a lot. They doted on her subconsciously and even discussed acting with her.

It was the same that day. The three of them gathered together to discuss again. Shen Han and Xiao Bai couldn’t help but start feeding Little Bei. Mu Jingzhe watched from the side with a face full of smiles.

Because she was so focused, she didn’t notice it immediately when Shao Dong arrived.

The first thing Shao Dong did when he arrived was look for Mu Jingzhe. He even called out to her, but Mu Jingzhe was still beaming as she looked ahead, oblivious to his arrival. Shao Dong looked at Mu Jingzhe’s gaze and then looked opposite him. He leaned closer and asked Mu Jingzhe, “Mommy, do you really like Best Actor Shen and Bai Bai?”

“Of course I do. They’re so handsome,” Mu Jingzhe reflexively replied. She only reacted after answering. “Little Dong, you’re here. When did you arrive?”

“Just now.” Shao Dong looked at Shen Han and Bai Bai and asked casually, “Mom, which one do you like more?”

“Shen Han… No, I like Bai Bai too. I like them both,” Mu Jingzhe immediately answered. Then, she looked at him suspiciously. “What’s wrong? Why do you ask?”

“Just asking.” Shao Dong shook his head and didn’t say much, but a hint of understanding flashed across his eyes.

It seemed like Mommy really liked Shen Han. In that case, he had to do something.

It didn’t occur to Mu Jingzhe what Shao Dong was thinking. When she saw Shao Dong, Mu Jingzhe remembered something important. “Little Dong, the refrigerators have entered the country. The logo is quite clear. My rolls and tissues have also arrived.”

Shao Dong had come over as the movie was about to start filming. When he saw the set layout, he suddenly discussed with Mu Jingzhe whether they could invest in the movie or sponsor it. Later on, they set up a Good Brother refrigerator in the house on the set.

There was no need to do anything. The refrigerator was just set up for them to use for free, and they could even provide some support.

Realizing that this was product placement[1] for television dramas and movies, Mu Jingzhe was stunned. Television wasn’t that popular in this era, and there weren’t that many television commercials either. There wasn’t even such a thing as celebrity endorsements. Therefore, this aspect wasn’t as exaggerated as in later generations.

However, this idea had occurred to Shao Dong. His judgment and business acumen were truly impeccable. Mu Jingzhe expressed her admiration. Since he had thought of it, she naturally couldn’t let it go. In the end, she discussed it with various parties and reached a cooperative agreement.

Mu Jingzhe felt that it was feasible. At the end of the day, she also benefited from it. Her paper products appeared in the production as product placement as well. Just like the refrigerators, there wasn’t a need to read out loud slogans or anything, like they did in television commercials. All they had to do was place the product there.

From then on, Shao Dong and Mu Jingzhe were considered partners. While they were on vacation, Shao Dong had been busy with the Good Brother refrigerator. He wanted to launch it in the market as soon as possible.

At their current rate, refrigerators could be listed in bulk before the movie was released.

As Shao Dong came often, the production team became familiar with him. They all knew that Shao Dong wasn’t an ordinary child and couldn’t be underestimated.

Although Shao Dong was young, he was still very smart and mature when he spoke. In fact, some adults might not even be as good as him. Therefore, the crew didn’t treat him as a child.

However, other than talking a little more at home, Shao Dong still didn’t talk much outside. It wasn’t just because he stuttered, but it was impossible for him to say that he didn’t care at all. Still, Shao Dong wasn’t as conscious of it and didn’t feel as inferior as before. It was just that he still didn’t talk much out of habit.

It was a rare occurrence for Shao Dong to look for Shen Han that day. He even went to look for Bai Bai. No one knew what they were talking about, but they seemed to be chatting quite happily.

When Mu Jingzhe brought Little Bei out so she could change into her costume, she saw Shao Dong chatting happily with them.

On the way back to the temporarily rented house, Mu Jingzhe asked Shao Dong what they were talking about curiously. Shao Dong shook his head. “Nothing, we were just chatting casually.”

This time, Little Bei’s filming location was in Ocean City. The production team had rented a hotel room. Because they had taken into account that Shao Dong and the others would come over, Mu Jingzhe had rented a house near the hotel. Renting a house was better than staying in a hotel. It was convenient to prepare some food and stew some green bean soup. She could bring it to the production team to relieve Little Bei and herself of potential heat at any time.

The house was on the first floor. It was an ordinary house with many neighbors around. There was even a well in the courtyard, which was very rare. The water in the well was very sweet, and watermelons tasted especially sweet and cool after soaking in the well.

Mu Jingzhe would also soak the green bean soup in to cool it down. It was considered a natural refrigerator, but it was better than a refrigerator and wasn’t as cold.

During summer vacation, filming wouldn’t delay Little Bei’s classes, and she wouldn’t have to suffer from the cold. However, that didn’t mean she wouldn’t have to suffer, especially when filming autumn and winter scenes during the summer. In the summer, Little Bei had to act very cold and wear a cotton jacket and a scarf.

When they saw it on the screen, the audience only felt that it was cute. Only those present knew that there was a price to pay for this cuteness. Because Little Bei kept sweating, she had to wipe her sweat from time to time.

Every time Little Bei took off her clothes after filming, they would be drenched. If she wasn’t careful, she might suffer a heatstroke. Mu Jingzhe had been paying attention and giving Little Bei more water and green bean soup every day.
