Chapter 71: Obscure Happiness
Chapter 71: Subtle Happiness
In the blink of an eye, Han Zhi had finished all his scenes, marking the completion of his shooting.
Although he played a small role, everyone had witnessed Han Zhi’s dedication to the character. So, on the day he wrapped up, the director specially organized a small wrap party for him.
The party was held at a restaurant near the film studio, where several key crew members gathered for some casual dining and drinking. It wasn’t an overly formal affair.
When Meng Ke walked into the private room, Han Zhi wasn’t surprised at all.
Over the past week, Meng Ke had managed to get along with everyone in the crew. Whenever people saw him, they would affectionately call out "Brother Meng, Brother Meng," and Meng Ke showed no trace of a big boss attitude. The director especially addressed Meng Ke with familiarity, almost treating him like their bread and butter. Which, to be fair, was true—Meng Ke had invested a significant sum into the production and even told the director to spare no expense when it came to the film’s music, insisting on making it grand and sophisticated.
At that time, Meng Chao stood beside Meng Ke and mocked him, thinking how pitiful Meng Ke was. Clearly, Meng Ke invested in the film just because of Han Zhi, yet he had to go around in circles, unable to reveal his reasons or even his name in front of Han Zhi.
Truly, Meng Ke had it the worst.
Back to the point.
Although Han Zhi was relatively reserved in character, he wasn’t socially clueless. Over the week, he had built good rapport with everyone in the crew. As a result, during the wrap party, everyone toasted him one after another, and Han Zhi found it hard to refuse. He had already resigned himself to the idea that he might get drunk.
