Yun Shudai immediately switched to吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for complaining/criticizing) mode: "This variety show was poorly made, I don't really like it."
"Hmph, I guessed it."
"Hmm? You guessed it? Why?"
"You didn't participate in many variety shows in your past life, right? It's because you weren't used to them. In reality shows, being real is secondary; the most important thing is the show aspect, and most of them are scripted."
"Oh, I see. I knew I shouldn't have gone."
"Just participate if you want. The main thing is that you're not famous right now, and it's not good for you to stay out of the public eye for too long."
"Who said that? I've received two scripts right now, Lao He. I don't know which one to choose. Can you help me take a look?"
"Okay, send it over."
Yun Shudai quickly handed her the two notebooks, then started eating without even looking at them.
Just like in her previous life, she trusted Lao He the most. Before, when she accepted scripts, Lao He would always help her vet them.
"Sister Shushu, don't you not eat skewers?"
"Um... can I have one?"
"..." She knew that Sister Shushu wouldn't be so honest, and made a mistake: "Just this one string."
"Okay."
Little did they know that Yun Shudai had eaten most of the lobster.
Then, Meimei took the tablet and went back to her room.
"Oh, that's great, I'm full."
"Old Yun, choose 'Signal in the Dawn'."
"You mean that web series?"
"Yes, the one I remember most vividly from Lao Yun's previous life was when he handed you a script for a suspenseful and mind-bending short drama. At that time, given your status, I felt that the team was too small and it was a web drama, so I refused."
"Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember it. That show was a huge hit online, and it was this show that sparked the online drama craze."
"Yes, I regretted it so much back then. If you could have acted in this, even if you didn't win an award, you could have gone from being an eighth-tier actress to a first-tier actress."
"That's really exaggerated?"
"Of course, there's also that ancient romance. I think the name sounds very similar to one from my previous life. In the end, the second male lead in the drama got into trouble, and the drama was shelved and never aired."
"I don't remember, but this drama is from abroad, and ours is a remake. After it airs, netizens will inevitably make comparisons."
"Let's compare. I believe in your abilities. With your laid-back attitude, when do you ever pay attention to these things except when you're filming your own scenes? Anyway, I don't recommend you take this historical romance."
"Okay, let's go with this short drama. Lao He, I've noticed that the dates here are four or five years later than where we are."
What did you discover?
"It feels like some things that are very popular in real life are still small companies, or haven't even been born yet."
"Isn't this a good thing? Wouldn't you call this our cheat code?"
"Yes, definitely not."
After chatting with Lao He, Yun Shudai watched the short drama carefully.
That's when they discovered that the producer was Xu Shan.
Yun Shudai was startled. Could it be the script that Producer Xu Shan handed over?
Xu Shan is a very famous producer in the industry. Haha, I can't believe I'm so lucky. My unintentional help last time brought me such a big surprise.
Yun Shudai was just about to call Sister Yao to ask when she happened to receive a call from Bai Muyin.
"Shushu".
"Mu Yin, you're still up so late."
"I thought you should have finished recording by now. I missed you, so I gave you a call."
Yun Shudai's heart tightened at the thought of missing her, and she hummed in agreement: "I've finished recording and I'm at your house now. I plan to go back tomorrow."
"Come back tomorrow?" Bai Muyin's tone carried a hint of disappointment.
"What's wrong? Don't you want to see me?"
"No, I'm taking a flight to Haicheng early tomorrow morning."
"...Oh, so how long are you going to stay here?"
"Can you wait for me?"
"Yes, I don't have any announcements in the next few days."
A faint laugh came from Bai Muyin's side, and he said, "I'll be back in two or three days. Wait for me."
"good."
