Chapter 60

After the nightmare-like half hour last night, Liu Hao gained a new understanding of the people from Shandong.

Especially the head coach, Li Xiaopeng.

Don't be fooled by his silly smile, which seems to lack any guile.

But his stomach must have a capacity larger than the ocean, deeper than the sea.

Perhaps it was because of what his son said yesterday afternoon about not being as skilled, but anyway, Brother Xiaopeng said one thing: "Thank you, Liu Xiaopang, for your great contribution to Qingdao Zhongneng," and then he drank three small bottles of liquor in one go...

Three bottles! Liu Hao usually struggles with just one. Although his tolerance has improved, drinking three in a row would really be a death sentence.

The team members, though not as fierce as the coach, still had to clink glasses three times...

When Liu Hao woke up the next day, he tried to count how many cups he had drunk, but he was completely confused and couldn't figure it out.

He vaguely remembered that only one person had the same outcome as him, and that was Mao Jianqing.

Mao Jianqing grew up in Shanghai and probably rarely drank so much, so it was no surprise he fell over.

But the others didn't fall over at all? Liu Hao could only marvel at the strength of the Zhongneng team...

It turns out that losing weight and slimming down actually has its benefits, at least you don't have to drink so much!

Liu Hao didn't want to get up even when the sun was shining on his buttocks, as he had no strength left, feeling as if his upper and lower body were completely separated, and the world was spinning. This is the result of drinking too much white liquor.

Usually at this time, his legs would be uncooperative, but today they were unusually quiet.

Could being drunk have this effect? He suddenly thought of this question.

Zhang Yu and Liu Bao were not in the room, probably out playing by the sea, leaving him alone, which was perfect for calling Lai Yuxin.

They had agreed to shoot the advertisement today at noon.

Adidas advertisement!

It's true.

The first Adidas China advertisement of 2014 will be shot in Qingdao.

And Liu Hao is one of the players in it.

This honor is truly heavy.

Since the shooting location is nearby, Lai Yuxin chose to have Liu Hao stay here.

Although it is still cool in Qingdao in April, unsuitable for swimming, Adidas only intended to shoot a beach soccer match as the background for the advertisement.

And as one of the characters, Liu Hao naturally had to appear on the beach.

He put on his wig again, changed into a new outfit, and headed straight for the shooting location.

Although it was a bit cold, the beach was already crowded.

Qingdao's Jiaozhou Bay Beach is known as the "First Beach in Asia," but Liu Hao thought this place wasn't much different from Beihai's Silver Beach. Aren't they all just sand? He was being picky.

But as he walked, he realized that there was a big difference. At least here, there were no mineral water bottles or plastic bags to be seen.

What does this mean? It means people don't litter.

In the past, at Beihai's Silver Beach or Yinzhou's Sanlang Bay, you could see garbage bags and beer bottles everywhere. This is the difference...

Even the number of beautiful women seemed to be several times more... Tall, attractive women were everywhere, and Liu Hao, being short and wearing flat sandals, looked even more clumsy.

Sigh... His height and figure were both a source of frustration. When alone, he occasionally mocked his own height, which had become a habit.

After about ten minutes of walking, the crowd finally thinned out. In the distance, he saw a large gray rock with "Rizhao Jiaozhou Bay Beach" clearly written on it. Liu Hao knew he had reached the shooting location.

The shooting equipment and set seemed to be already set up, and several staff members were lying on the beach, smoking cigarettes, and using a cut mineral water bottle as an ashtray. They looked really bored.

No need to say, the main actors hadn't arrived yet.

Could they be waiting for me? Liu Hao realized this and felt a bit guilty.

But it was clearly agreed to shoot at 12:30, and it was only 12:20 now. He shouldn't be late, right?

Three guys were sitting on the beach playing cards, probably a game of Landlord. When they saw Liu Hao approaching, they just glanced up and continued playing, completely ignoring his presence.

Damn... Is this attitude because I'm late? Clearly, they came early!

"Sorry, I'm a bit late, and I kept you waiting." Although he felt a bit neglected, Liu Hao wasn't a petty person and still greeted them politely.

"Boom!" They completely ignored him, engrossed in their game of Landlord...

"I boom too!" Another guy with a white hat also boomed...

"Ha, I win!" The third guy, as black as charcoal, threw his cards down, excited, and then noticed the fat guy standing next to him, "Oh, sorry, who are you?"

It wasn't that he was impolite, but he was too engrossed in the game. Now he felt guilty and scratched his head, trying to remember where he had seen this guy. And there didn't seem to be anyone that big on the cast list...

"I'm Liu Xiaopang, here for the shooting." Liu Hao smiled faintly, not minding.

Liu Xiaopang? There's no such name, the black charcoal guy was a bit embarrassed. Wasn't he familiar with the cast list? Weren't the guys in this shoot all the old ball kings?

Zheng Zhi, Zhang Linpeng, Huang Bowen, Gao Lin, Zheng Long, Feng Xiaoting, and Zeng Cheng? All members of the Guangzhou Evergrande team. When did a Liu Xiaopang appear?

Wait... There seems to be such a name.

The black charcoal guy quickly took out the list and reviewed it carefully.

Ah! There it is! A few cold sweat drops trickled down his forehead. He wasn't that old and blind, so how could he have overlooked it?

Damn, the manager really put Liu Xiaopang's name at the end.

The paper read: To save costs, the following are stunt scenes, and the players do not need to be present, attached list: Zheng Long, Liu Xiaopang...

Liu Hao, standing right in front of the black charcoal guy, also saw this line.

What does this mean? Does it mean he doesn't need to be on set? Is there a stand-in? He was confused!

At this moment, a group of people came bustling from behind, laughing and chatting loudly. Liu Hao could hear clearly: "Those girls last night were really hot, I didn't sleep well all night, I was exhausted!"

"Brother Zhi, no wonder you used to say your favorite opponent was Qingdao Zhongneng, it's like this..."

"Don't you get it? When Brother Zhi played for Shandong Luneng, he already knew... Qingdao is practically his second home, not Jinan..."

"Too bad Zheng Long is injured, otherwise he would definitely come back to Qingdao."

Zheng Long? Liu Hao remembered the list he saw earlier and understood. Zheng Long was injured and couldn't come to shoot the advertisement.

And as for himself? Why doesn't he need to come?

Turning around, he saw Zheng Zhi, Zhang Linpeng, Huang Bowen, Gao Lin, Feng Xiaoting, and Zeng Cheng, six people, walking over, chatting and laughing. This... is the legendary F6? The F-U-C-K combination?

From their conversation, it was clear they had a great time in Qingdao last night. If it wasn't the F6, what combination could it be?

The six people didn't even glance at Liu Hao, probably thinking he was a local fan.

The black charcoal guy had already gotten up from the beach, put on a smile, and ran over. He didn't bother to explain to Liu Hao.

"Welcome, everyone, thanks for coming. Do you want some drinks first?"

Damn, how quickly his attitude changed! Treating them like princes and treating me like a passerby? Liu Hao stood there, curious to see how this would play out.

The F6 were indeed big shots. They sat under the sun umbrellas, crossed their legs, and drank their drinks, looking like Hollywood stars.

Their soccer skills might not be great, but they certainly had the big-shot attitude.

Liu Hao, who had never seen this before, was sarcastically thinking.

He really wanted to face off with them, but only in free kicks...

At this moment, his phone rang, and Lai Yuxin finally called.

I was just about to find her!

"Fatso, the shoot is canceled, you don't need to come."

"Really canceled? Why?" Liu Hao didn't mention that he was already on site, wanting to see how Lai Yuxin would explain.

"Yes, I heard the other players can't come, so it's canceled. I just received the news."

"Is that so? Did I see ghosts? I saw several national team players on the beach... If you don't believe me, you can come and see." Liu Hao didn't mention Zheng Zhi's name, but Lai Yuxin would definitely understand.

"Ah? You're already there? So fast? Okay... I was careless. I just checked the advertisement contract, and you don't need to be on set..." Lai Yuxin had to admit her mistake.

"I saw it..."

Hanging up the phone, Liu Hao felt a bit depressed.

Thinking about it, he realized he was probably just a guest actor and didn't need to be on set. The so-called stunt shooting might just be a single scene, not even worth shooting...

Even a child could figure it out. Zheng Long was injured and couldn't come, so why couldn't he, who was fine, come?

The gentle waves caressed the beach, and the spring breeze blew, making people feel comfortable, but Liu Hao only felt a sense of mockery.

The black charcoal guy and Zheng Zhi were chatting and laughing, and their laughter kept reaching Liu Hao's ears, making him feel like it was directed at him...

Of course, with such a small appearance fee, how could they get him to come and shoot the advertisement?

Next time, he would only come for a million-dollar contract, damn it!

With a depressed mood, Liu Hao prepared to return to the hotel, pack his luggage and his mood, and go back to Yinzhou with his family.

But just as he reached the hotel entrance, he was stopped.

"Dad!"

Ah+——*（#…………@￥|+

Liu Bao?!

His son was actually standing at the hotel entrance, calling him "Dad"!

What to do, what to do...

Looking around, he saw Zhang Yu walking over with an umbrella.

He couldn't let his son recognize him!

"Little boy, how can you randomly call someone 'Dad'?" Liu Hao squeezed his eyebrows, forcing himself to say this.

He could act in front of Liu Bao, but he couldn't continue in front of Zhang Yu, who would definitely see through it.

Forget about the son, he had to get out of there quickly...

He twisted his body and ran.

"Dad, where are you going?" Liu Bao was about to chase after him, but Zhang Yu had already walked up.

"Xiao Bao, where are you going?"

In a flash, Liu Hao had already run fifty meters away.

"Dad! He's ignoring me!" Liu Bao pointed at Liu Hao's back, feeling wronged.

"That's... " Zhang Yu was a bit confused. The back did look familiar, but the hair was definitely not.
