My concern now is this Yan Shaohan; he speaks carelessly and doesn't understand the deeper meaning behind what's said.

While a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear, if someone deliberately tries to cause trouble, then there will be a lot of problems.

Even Zhuang Hongyi's smile faded slightly.

"Yes, Director Zhuang basically found all of these actors for me."

As expected, Yan Shaohan was not cunning and spoke frankly.

Immediately, a few flashes of light went off, and the surrounding media reporters began frantically recording and filming. The lead reporter wore a satisfied smile, already envisioning the next trending topic on social media.

[Yan Shaohan publicly confirms that the actor is a resource-backed star; "Yu Ye" becomes a game of capital.]

[Are they stuffing people in before filming even starts? Is "Sumiya" just overconfident, or are they popping champagne early?]

[A well-connected cast member from the "Yu Ye" production team]

With so many "resource-backed" actors, what will become of "Sumi" in the future?

...

But then Yan Shaohan changed the subject: "The main problem is that I just graduated and don't know any famous people in the industry! If Teacher Zhuang doesn't help me, I'm afraid I won't even be able to find the basic main cast, let alone assemble a production team."

"As for the casting, I was naturally extremely satisfied. I only had one requirement for Teacher Zhuang at the time, which was that everyone in the main cast had to be handsome and have outstanding looks, meeting the average appearance level of my main cast! So look at it now—they are all super eye-catching, high-value actors!"

"Especially Ms. Guo Xinya! She's absolutely my goddess!"

Then Yan Shaohan began to talk at length about his sources of inspiration and his creative process—

The people present: ...

Xiao He lowered his head and rubbed his forehead.

Good, good. Originally, the biggest point of contention in their production team was with him, but now, the point of contention on the internet will definitely not be with him anymore.

—But it's about this incredibly unreliable Yan Shaohan!

The lead reporter had no interest in hearing Yan Shaohan's creative ideas. He wore a polite smile, but his mind was elsewhere. Another reporter next to him decisively raised his hand to interrupt Yan Shaohan's "chanting" and continued to ask: "So the focus of casting for 'Yu Ye' this time is on the actors' looks? Then how do you guarantee the quality of the actors and the quality of the work?"

"I believe that many problems can be overcome."

Yan Shaohan said very sincerely, "Those are things that everyone in the crew needs to work together on, but before everything is settled, at least everyone can see that the actors are good-looking."

At least they've already won half the battle in terms of looks!

Everyone: ...Okay, okay, what you say isn't necessarily wrong.

The reporter hesitated, seemingly wanting to speak but ultimately unsure what to say, and stammered, "This, this isn't quite right—"

"Alright, thank you all for coming to our launch ceremony."

Zhuang Hongyi interrupted the reporter, glancing at everyone before raising the microphone and saying calmly, "It's about time, everyone come up for a group photo."

The topic was then awkwardly dropped.

Xiao He could almost foresee how these people would promote their film crew when they got back!

Just this seemingly unreliable director, who is also extremely obsessed with good looks, is enough for them to come up with different versions.

This is really a headache...
