Major Mo Jingjing of the Interstellar Alliance sacrificed herself to perish together with the star beasts for the greater good. After death, she woke up again, only to find herself reincarnated as ...
They didn't care at all.
In fact, the moment the door closed, a subtle change occurred in the atmosphere between the two of them. It was as if they weren't a director and the lead actor, but rather a director and a capitalist.
"Hahaha, Su Mu, tell me just how much God has favored you! You're rich, good-looking, have resources, and are capable, and most importantly, you're smart!"
"Now, I've heard about all this, and you can imagine the impact. To be honest, I've already received an apology letter from Mo Jingjing's company. They were very polite and even said they could replace the actress for us for free if needed, bringing in their best actress."
Director Li didn't hide anything from Su Mu and told him the truth.
"Change the actress?" Su Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, his whole demeanor becoming dangerous. "Director Li, rumors stop with the wise. I have already investigated the matter of Crazy Horse that day. Mo Jingjing is the second female lead that I personally selected. The female lead can be replaced, but she cannot!"
This attitude, this degree of favoritism, is already quite obvious.
"Well, actually I mean the same thing as you. Although I'm not too keen on getting involved in those backstabbing and infighting, that's only on the premise that it doesn't affect the normal filming of my crew."
"Since our family is on the same page, then there's nothing to worry about. Alright, you've been filming all night, you must be tired, go home and rest, I know what to do."
Finally, the director said one last thing and then turned and left.
Although no one heard a single word of Director Li's back-and-forth conversation with Su Mu, it did nothing to affect the fabrications and lies spread by those outside.
Xing Feifei and Su Mu filmed all night last night and are now extremely tired. They are sitting in the dressing room waiting to remove their makeup before going back to rest.
Halfway through removing her makeup, Sister Hua suddenly came in, gave the makeup artist a wary look, and said, "Alright, you've worked hard too, go back and rest first, I'll take care of the rest."
"But Sister Hua, Fei Fei's makeup is a bit difficult to remove today. If it's not removed properly, it will affect Fei Fei's skin. Don't worry, I'm not tired. Let me do it."
The makeup artist thought that Sister Hua was concerned about her, and happily declined the other party's kindness.
Little did anyone know, in the end, it was she who was wronged.
She glared at the other woman and spoke again, "Are you deaf or brainless? I told you to leave now, so why are you talking so much? Do you even want to make a living in the entertainment industry?"
After scolding the person away, Sister Hua removed Xing Feifei's makeup while beaming with joy and saying, "Feifei, I just heard that the director personally went to see Su Mu. Su Mu's popularity on set and online is undeniable. This time, even if Mo Jingjing had eight mouths, she wouldn't be able to explain those things clearly."
"Not only that, Teacher Wang also told me that when filming officially starts, she will definitely take advantage of her position to teach Mo Jingjing a lesson for you."
At this point, Sister Hua suddenly paused, a hint of doubt flashing in her shrewd eyes, and she stopped what she was doing.
"What's wrong, Sister Hua? Why did you suddenly stop?"
Through the mirror, Xing Feifei saw the expression on Hua Jie's face and thought that the bitch had caused some trouble again.
"Oh, it's nothing. I just suddenly had a question. What is your relationship with Teacher Wang and Teacher Chen? They have been so good to you. Ever since I became your manager, no matter what trouble you encounter, they always lend a helping hand whenever you ask them for help."
And it's the kind of thing that doesn't ask for anything in return.
At most, she would buy some gifts in Xing Feifei's name and send them to the two of them on her own initiative.
Hua Jie suddenly thought of this question and asked it casually, but a hint of panic and guilt flashed in Xing Feifei's eyes.
Although the emotion came and went quickly, Sister Hua was cunning, and her eyes never left her face.
Something's fishy going on.
There must be some unspeakable secret between Xing Feifei and those two teachers.
"That's what you're concerned about. As my agent, you should be thinking about how to help my career reach new heights, not about random things!"
"Hurry up and remove my makeup! I'm so sleepy, I need to go back and rest as soon as possible!"
Xing Feifei used anger to mask her inner panic.
"Okay, okay, I'll speed things up right now."
This time, Sister Hua didn't expose it.
Women, as long as they know how to do makeup, they all know a little about how to remove makeup. What's more, Sister Hua did learn about makeup and makeup removal for Xing Feifei.
About half an hour later, Xing Feifei removed her makeup, changed her clothes, and left.
Mo Jingjing and Faye Wong's scenes together have also begun filming.
With a tight schedule and heavy workload, the director specifically went over the scene with the two of them again before filming began, explaining the feeling he wanted.
"Xiao Mo, Teacher Wang, do you two understand what I just said?" Whether the entire crew can get a good night's sleep tonight depends on your performance.
After the explanation, the director looked at the two people and then checked it again.
“Yes, Director Li, I understand.” Mo Jingjing nodded in response.
"Director Li, this isn't the first time we've worked together. You don't need to worry about my acting skills? Although Jingjing is a newcomer, she's very talented. Even if there's something she doesn't understand, I'll try my best to guide her."
First, give yourself a "good person" card; only a seasoned "green tea" would say that.
Regardless of whether it was tea or not, the director was pleased to hear Faye Wong's words and laughed heartily, "Good, Ms. Wang, I like your dedication. Thank you for your hard work today. The whole crew is waiting for your wonderful performance so we can get some rest."
"Alright, you two hurry up and get your makeup and clothes ready. We'll officially begin in ten minutes!"
When it comes to filming, the actors are definitely the ones who work the hardest and are the most exhausted, but the directors and the crew members are the ones who endure the most hardship.
Actors can rest when they switch roles, but directors, some production staff, and the camera crew cannot; they need to keep an eye on things the whole time.
After a long night of filming, everyone was exhausted, and their physical condition had reached a breaking point.
It's obvious that Xing Feifei and the others have meticulously prepared a life-or-death situation for Mo Jingjing today.
If her filming goes smoothly today, that's fine. But if it goes badly and results in multiple takes, the crew will definitely hate her.
At that point, we'll be truly isolated.
Cheng Meng quickly realized this, so not long after she arrived, she spent a lot of money to order energizing coffee and breakfast for the entire crew.
Lunch and afternoon tea were also booked.
She felt obligated to help Mo Jingjing build good relationships and maintain her image.
"Hmph, I never realized this woman's agent was so good at handling people. He knows how to prepare supplies before moving an army, so he's got some brains."
