And people from large families like Hua Chen are exactly the kind of people Mu Chuchu least wants to encounter right now.
Her extended family had numerous connections with the Fairy Association, and she didn't want to cause any trouble.
However, how come a wealthy and powerful family like Hua Chen seems to have such a good relationship with Lan Hai?
Mu Chuchu asked when she didn't understand, and then got the answer from Shen Yi.
The Hua and Lan families are old friends, and the two grew up together. Hua Chen only came to play the second male lead as a friend, otherwise the several million yuan budget for filming "The Tale of the Demon Fox" wouldn't even cover Hua Chen's salary alone.
Lan Hai is not without background either. She is a fledgling director, but her family is a well-known family of actors in the industry.
Apart from her, everyone in Lan Hai's family is a celebrity in the entertainment industry. Her grandparents, maternal grandparents, and even her parents, brothers, and sisters are all actors.
She is the third child in her family. Recently, her twin brother and sister have both debuted in acting and become the most popular child stars. The whole family has amazing looks, but she is just average-looking and unknown. She has never had the talent for acting since she was a child, nor does she like acting. Instead, she is wholeheartedly interested in directing and screenwriting. While majoring in directing in college, she used the money she earned from writing scripts to actively seek cooperation with iQiyi's online broadcasting platform after graduation to film "The Tale of the Demon Fox".
Moreover, because Lan Hai was so young, the Kiwi TV broadcasting station was initially unwilling to cooperate with her. It wasn't until she offered to pay for the filming herself, only asking the broadcasting station to help broadcast the show after it aired, that "The Tale of the Demon Fox" was finally able to officially begin filming.
After hearing these stories, Mu Chuchu couldn't help but admire Lan Hai.
Just as Mu Chuchu and the others finished speaking, Lan Hai brought Hua Chen over, and they introduced themselves to each other.
Hua Chen's face was visibly filled with resistance to Mu Chuchu, and when they shook hands, he only touched her hand perfunctorily before letting go.
Shen Yi and Lan Hai were both quite dissatisfied with Hua Chen's actions, but Mu Chuchu herself didn't mind at all.
Hua Chen couldn't discern her identity, but she was, after all, a thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox spirit. In Hua Chen's eyes, she was a brutal hunter who could kill him at any moment, no wonder he resisted her.
“Mr. Shen, Ms. Mu, actually I’m here to discuss with you about changing the scene where the male and female leads first meet.” After Lan Hai finished speaking, he handed three copies of the temporarily revised script to the three of them. “Actually, the original script set the first encounter in a haunted house. The male lead accidentally discovered the female lead’s nine-tailed fox while exorcising a ghost, and then took her home. However, because we couldn’t find more locations before, we had to change the plot.”
"So, for our first scene, we still need to go back to the small building on the desolate mountain to film?" Mu Chuchu asked after glancing at the script.
"Yes!" Lan Hai nodded.
Hua Chen flipped through the script and snorted twice. "Lan Hai, when you first said you wanted the house on the mountain to be used as a villa for the male lead, I thought it wouldn't work. Now it seems you also think that little building looks like a haunted house."
Lan Hai, his little scheme exposed, silently looked away. "I have no choice, I have limited funds, I'm really suffering!"
"I think that with these plot changes, the characters will be more well-developed, and it will give the audience a strong visual impact from the start, making it more engaging." Shen Yi glanced at Mu Chuchu. "Chuchu, what do you think?"
