"I don't have a bank card."

How could someone this age not have a bank card?

Director Zhang was a little puzzled, but he didn't take it to heart. He said to the young man who brought Yi Shuihan over, "Xiao Luo, take him to get a membership card before signing the contract."

Just as the young man was about to agree, Yi Shuihan said, "I don't have an ID card, so I can't open a card."

Director Zhang: "???"

His gaze towards Yi Shuihan changed instantly.

Is this person a wanted fugitive?

But such a good-looking wanted criminal, he won't last more than a few blocks before he's caught and taken away for a reward, right?

He pulled Xiao Luo aside and asked in a low voice, "Where did you find this guy? He doesn't even have an ID card."

Ronaldinho was also puzzled.

This person is dressed so elegantly and looks so good, who would have thought that he doesn't even meet the basic requirements for signing a contract?

"I just bumped into him on the street..."

Realizing he hadn't been careful enough, he tried to make amends: "Director, look at his appearance. I've never seen anyone with a more perfect face shape. He looks like he's from a wealthy and noble family, right?"

Director Zhang nodded.

This person's appearance is indeed outstanding; otherwise, he wouldn't have made his decision at first glance.

Xiao Luo continued, "I think something might have happened to him, such as his bank account being frozen or his ID being confiscated by debt collectors, which is why he asked for cash."

Director Zhang frowned; he dared not use someone of unknown origin who might cause trouble.

He also hoped to turn his career around with this movie.

But after meeting Yi Shuihan, no one else could catch his eye.

Since filming began, this drama has experienced many twists and turns, with filming time being delayed again and again, and the investors have become impatient.

He can't keep wasting time on casting.

After hesitating for a moment, he took a picture of Yi Shuihan and sent it to a friend inside the system, asking him to check if the person had a criminal record.

The photo comparison technology is excellent nowadays, and he received a reply in just a few minutes.

"No such person found. Did you create this using AI?"

Director Zhang: "..."

Even AI couldn't create something this beautiful.

The fact that Yi Shuihan had no criminal record relieved him, but at the same time, a doubt arose in his mind.

My friend said "no such person found," meaning there is no such person in the system.

Is Yi Shuihan a foreigner?

People come to the film studio to complete a certain challenge, such as how many days can they survive if they lose their passport, are penniless, and wander the streets?

Or just how friendly is China to foreigners?

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

I couldn't help but look around to see if there were any suspicious people secretly recording the scene with their phones or cameras.

I actually saw several of them—they were all crew members.

He pulled a long face.

What are you doing?!

The people who were secretly taking pictures immediately trembled with fear.

"Director, we didn't...we didn't do anything, we just took a few photos..."

Delete them all!

After Xuan Chi was injured, people speculated about who he would replace him, and a long list of names was compiled. Some people even started a poll.

The powerful artifact, Yi Shui Han, will only have a truly explosive effect when it's released in the trailer.

Now we have to keep it hidden.

He instructed Xiao Luo: "Keep an eye on them, make sure they delete everything, and anyone who dares to leak it will be immediately fired from the group!"

Xiao Luo nodded and walked over.

Those people were quite frightened by Director Zhang's stern attitude. Not only did they obediently delete the message, but they also passed it on to others.

"The replacement for the White Moonlight Emperor has been found, and he's super handsome! Director Zhang isn't letting this get out, so everyone be careful."

After reprimanding the man, Director Zhang said to Yi Shuihan, "You don't even have identification, so you can't sign a contract. According to the law, we cannot cooperate with you."

Even extras have to provide their ID cards in order to declare their personal income tax.

"However, since you are very suitable for this role, I can let you play it, but it must be as a friendly appearance, which means you will not receive any payment."

Yi Shuihan opened his mouth, wanting to say that he wouldn't act if he didn't have money.

Director Zhang continued, "Of course, I can't let you work so hard for so many days for nothing. I still need to pay for your travel expenses. I'll pay for it out of my own pocket. You need to sign a commitment letter stating that this is a friendly performance without any payment."

Yi Shuihan agreed.

All he wanted was some travel money. He didn't care whether the film was a hit or not, or whether he would get a share of the box office revenue.

After he signed the commitment letter, Director Zhang gave him half the money—30,000 yuan.

"The remaining 40,000 will be paid after the filming is finished."

That evening, Yi Shuihan checked into a hotel booked by the film crew.

The other actors in the group were naturally very curious about this new face they had never seen before, but no matter how they inquired, they could not find out his background.

I can't find it online.

They guessed he was some rich young master who was just dabbling in the business.

He played the second male lead, a role with few scenes but a very important one. Director Zhang was initially a little worried that he wouldn't be able to handle the role, but as soon as Yi Shuihan changed into his imperial robes, his imposing presence came through, and he didn't need any acting skills at all.

Most of the videos I shoot are completed in one take.

The scenes that were originally planned to be filmed in seven days were completed in just three days.

When Yi Shuihan was about to leave after receiving the remaining half of his salary, Director Zhang was extremely reluctant to let him go.

He hadn't encountered such a naturally gifted actor in a long time.

He then gave his business card to Yi Shuihan.

"After filming this movie, I have a big-budget historical drama to shoot. If you are interested, you can contact me."

Yi Shuihan nodded: "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

He didn't want to stay a moment longer. After leaving the film crew, he took a taxi, paid double the fare, and asked the driver to take him to City A.
