A million-subscriber UP owner from Blue Star, Xu Yanyu, transmigrated to a parallel world and became a traffic star criticized by the entire internet.
Her company wanted her to comply with a ...
Director Wei couldn't help but rub his ears; he almost thought he was hallucinating.
These were said by Zhang Ying!
Before Xu Yanyu arrived, Zhang Ying had openly and subtly complained that Director Wei had repeatedly made mistakes and reshot scenes, wasting a lot of her time.
She even complained about her co-star, Duan Nianzhuang, whose acting skills weren't particularly good.
Later, she even went to work on a neighboring film set with a straight face.
But Zhang Ying just offered to reshoot some of the previous scenes.
Director Wei's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but say, "There's no way to change it! The broadcast schedule has already been set."
Why didn't these guys say earlier that they were willing to stay up all night to reshoot?
He actually felt that many scenes that had just started filming needed to be reshot.
They should have told him earlier that he wasn't actually in a rush to go live.
Director Wei felt a pang of regret, but his eyes couldn't help but linger on the actors.
Upon seeing Xu Yanyu, he couldn't help but sigh again.
Why didn't Xu Yanyu come to us sooner?
If it had been Xu Yanyu who joined the production team in the first place, instead of Xi Rubao who caused the trouble...
Perhaps his TV dramas would be better.
Xu Yanyu was frightened by Director Wei's pitiful look.
She thought about it for a moment. She shouldn't have delayed anything important for Director Wei, right?
Having made sure she hadn't caused any trouble, Xu Yanyu leisurely raised her water glass and took a sip.
Whether they want to reshoot or not is their business; she felt she acted quite well and there was no need for a reshoot.
At this moment, Tao Mimi, who had been silent all along, suddenly jumped out and said, "Is it really possible to reshoot? You're all willing to reshoot? You're even willing to stay up all night?"
The other three people who had just pledged their loyalty hadn't even realized what was happening yet.
The assistant director intervened first, grabbing Tao Mimi's arm. "My dear lady! We don't need to reshoot. It's unnecessary, really unnecessary!"
Their performances were all excellent; every shot was beautiful, and every scene was capable of bringing tears to the audience's eyes.
The assistant director isn't afraid of anything else, except for Tao Mimi's words.
She's really good at speaking, and once she says something, there's no way to refute it.
Then, once you agree to her suggestion, the entire crew will be in a frenzy of work.
Tao Mimi was deliberately making things difficult for him, the assistant director who controlled the crew's finances.
Tao Mimi waved her little hand and showed off her newly revised script, "Come and take a look, I think we can change the background of our story."
"The previous main storyline was too monotonous. We can add some elements of destiny and reincarnation, as well as a mission to protect humanity for millions of years."
"This makes the main character's love story more substantial, and also makes the supporting character Liu Jing's character more believable."
Zhang Ying was delighted when Tao Mimi mentioned the main characters' love story.
She has always felt that the female lead's character is not compelling enough, and if Tao Mimi has a way to change it, she would be more than willing to remake it.
Chang Xuan, who was standing nearby, shouted, "Let's film it! Let's reshoot it according to the screenwriter's instructions!"
Director Wei's lips twitched again, and then he couldn't help but raise his hand and pat Chang Xuan on the shoulder.
"Are you the director or am I? I haven't even said whether I want to film it or not..."
Tao Mimi was indeed able to manipulate Director Wei, directly presenting him with her revised script.
"You see... actually, there's no need for major changes; some scenes were originally going to be reshot anyway."
That is, adding one-third more workload to the current shooting volume.
"But with this change, the main storyline will be much richer."
It's tough on the actors; they have to memorize their lines again after they've already memorized them.
...
Zhang Ying felt a buzzing pain in her head because she had to memorize her lines again.
But she still gritted her teeth and insisted, "Memorizing lines is our job as actors, it's okay to memorize more."
"Yes! Memorizing more books will make your brain sharper and exercise those brain nerves!"
Chang Xuan echoed this sentiment.
"Director Wei, I think Tao Mimi's suggestion is pretty good. You don't need to worry too much, we can definitely do it." Duan Nianzhuang dared to talk nonsense without even seeing the script.
Looking at them like this, Xu Yanyu couldn't help but sigh that Director Wei was really lucky.
Apart from her, all the actors under her command are so dedicated to their work.
"Where would we find that much time?"
"We need to get on the broadcast in time, so we have to take the workload into account when scheduling."
"We also need to control costs, because the producer will cut my budget for that."
Director Wei kept saying he was refusing, but he couldn't help flipping through the script again and again.
The assistant director couldn't help but roll his eyes; he had guessed this would happen.
Sure enough, the next second, Director Wei's words changed.
"Hey, this part is pretty good! Xiaomi, how did you come up with that idea?"
They actually set up a three-lifetime romance for the female and male leads.
Tao Mimi looked at Xu Yanyu excitedly and said, "It's all because of listening to Yanyu's songs! I've always enjoyed listening to Yanyu's new songs."
I don't know why, but every one of her songs inspires my creative inspiration.
Tao Mimi wasn't exaggerating when she said that.
She listened to other songs by Xu Yanyu afterward, and each one touched her deeply.
My notebooks at home are full of new ideas.
This is why she likes Xu Yanyu's songs so much.
For a creator, inspiration is the most important thing.
Tao Mimi only regrets that she met Xu Yanyu too late, otherwise she definitely would not have missed any of Xu Yanyu's previous live performances.
Director Wei was unaware of the various thoughts swirling in Tao Mimi's mind. He kept muttering to himself, "This plot change is brilliant! It's even better than what we filmed before."
"Director Wei, our budget can't support any more script revisions." The assistant director felt that this situation couldn't be allowed to continue.
"I'm going to call Producer Qian later and give him a piece of my mind, then he'll figure out how to raise the money!"
Director Wei casually brushed off the assistant director, glancing at the script without even looking up.
"This part is even more brilliant; this change perfectly matches Yan Yu's song!"
The assistant director rolled his eyes several times and dutifully reminded him, "Director Wei, we don't have that much time to film!"
Tao Mimi leaned closer and said, "Let me see which part it is. This part... this part can be put later as a flashback. It won't interfere with the earlier scenes."
Director Wei nodded, "Yes, this part won't delay our release date, let's change it like this!"
Chang Xuan and Zhang Ying, who were standing nearby, were also itching to join in the discussion.
They huddled together and looked at the script with Director Wei.
"Yes, yes, yes! This part is great!" Chang Xuan said excitedly.
Director Wei turned to another page, picked up his pen, and ticked it off.
"Liu Jing's scene is also good; we can use it when preparing materials. Let's revise Liu Jing's scene too!"
"This scene between Liu Jing and the female lead was also very intense, so it's been changed!"
"This scene featuring Liu Jing could be expanded a bit more; the changes are quite good!"
...
The people next to them...
How come Liu Jing's can be changed?
