Chapter 602 The funds she brought were mine
Ye Wanxi certainly couldn't save him.
Because of this incident, Li Weiming's phone was forcibly confiscated and he was locked in a dark room, temporarily unable to contact the outside world.
Ye Wanxi rested for the next day, and it wasn't until dark that she realized Li Weiming hadn't contacted her all day, and his phone was off when she called.
Thinking about the situation of the two brothers, Ye Wanxi still called Wen Jue the next day to find out more about the situation.
Wen Jue was unaware of what had happened to the Li family, only promising to visit Li Weiming when he had time and then tell Ye Wanxi what had happened.
Unfortunately, before Ye Wanxi could receive any news from Wen Jue, the crew of "Searching" started filming first.
This film, which has gone through countless hardships since its production, has a history of arduous filming that is enough to warrant its own documentary film.
It is worth mentioning that this film, which was originally directed by Chen Debang, had an assistant director and producer, Qi Yingxuan, added during the second round of filming.
During Ye Wanxi's filming of "Jianghu", Qi Yingxuan somehow learned that Chen Debang had used his name to seduce his junior sister into joining the crew.
Enraged, he went and got into a fight with Chen Debang, after which he demanded to invest in the production and become a producer and assistant director.
Chen Debang was naturally unwilling. He and Qi Yingxuan were the type to explode after just three sentences. If he were to join the crew as an assistant director, he would definitely have to give him pointers on the filming. At that time, the crew would be surrounded by his arguments and quarrels with Qi Yingxuan all day long. Just thinking about it made him feel like he was going to collapse.
Qi Yingxuan didn't think so. His junior sister wouldn't even accept his notebooks, so why should she give in after he pestered her for a while?
This isn't fair! He's clearly closest to his junior sister!
Didn't you try to win my junior sister over by appealing to my emotions? If that's the case, then you have to let me join the cast too.
He's determined to collaborate with his junior sister on a film and make her look stunning; there's no room for negotiation!
Chen Debang was furious at Qi Yingxuan's shamelessness, but he was also worried that if he really angered him, the guy would cause trouble behind the scenes and take away the treasure he had worked so hard to bring back.
After weighing the options, Chen Debang agreed to someone's unreliable request.
This led to Qi Yingxuan's glorious deed of going to find his junior sister full of resentment, only to be conscripted instead.
Just when he was about to succeed, this irresistible force caused the crew to be unable to start filming. Was God determined to prevent him from fulfilling his wish to work with his junior sister?
Fortunately, Qi Yingxuan, who felt he had given so much, finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel!
Since it was the second time filming had started, it wasn't as grand or lively as the first time. They simply invited some media to do a brief interview with the actors and director, and then publicly announced that it was the second time.
Given that Ye Wanxi is still very popular recently, even though she is just a minor character in the movie, the reporters' topics still revolve almost entirely around her.
"Ms. Ye, I heard that the character 'Xingchen' you play in this movie is a new character that wasn't in the original script, but was added by the screenwriters. Is that true?"
As soon as the reporter asked the question, everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Wanxi.
New characters independent of the script are usually added specifically to promote someone, given the nature of this industry.
The reporter's question may seem harmless at first glance, but with some editing and guidance in post-production, it could easily be portrayed as the production team deliberately exploiting the legacy of the deceased author to promote a popular actress, climbing over the blood of the dead to achieve their goals.
"Yes, you're right. Xingchen is indeed a newly added character who wasn't in the original script."
Ye Wanxi's straightforwardness made the reporter's eyes light up slightly, and she continued, "So what outstanding role do you think this character plays in the whole movie? Such as driving the plot or becoming a clue?"
"No, not really. The role of this character in the movie is that of a faith that everyone almost lost but always existed?"
"Belief?"
"Um."
"The Search" is a science fiction film that blends warmth and tragedy, comedy and comedy.
The character that the screenwriter specially added for Ye Wanxi is not strictly speaking a person, but an artificial intelligence that embodies the blood and sweat of countless ancestors and has developed independent consciousness.
Similarly, it is the last spark left in this world by our ancestors.
Her sister always appeared at the most critical and dangerous moments, bringing hope when everyone was ready to give up.
"Can you tell me more about that?"
"I'm sorry, but to prevent the plot from being leaked, I have to remain silent. I can only say that the character is quite likable. If you're really curious, you can go to the cinema to see it for yourself when the movie is released. I guarantee you won't regret it."
Reporter: "..." Why is this being promoted? Isn't this topic a bit too far off?
The crew members were all teary-eyed with emotion. They were already thinking about promotion even before filming was finished. They are truly role models for us all!
Seeing that they couldn't get anything out of this question, the reporters were still unwilling to give up and turned to ask an even more pointed question.
"Ms. Ye, there's a rumor that you got this role because you brought your own funding to the production. Is that true?"
Ye Wanxi was quite bewildered when she heard this question.
She was dragged into the film crew by someone who owed her a favor. Chen Debang not only didn't pay her a little more, but also wanted her to bring her own investment to the crew. What a dream!
Before Ye Wanxi could answer, Qi Yingxuan, who was sitting next to her, grabbed the microphone in front of him, cleared his throat and said, "You should ask me about this."
The reporters were taken aback and all looked at Qi Yingxuan, as if they had smelled a juicy juicy story.
"Director Qi, what's going on here? Is it true that someone brought their own funding to join the production?"
"have."
The reporter was stunned, then his eyes lit up, already anticipating how heated the topic would become online soon.
The next second, Qi Yingxuan threw out another bomb.
"The money she brought was mine."
reporter:"???"
The entire crew: "!!!"
The scene was completely silent, and even Ye Wanxi, the person involved, couldn't help but turn around and glare at him.
Qi Yingxuan accepted everything without question, and seemed rather pleased with his surprising remarks.
Just as he was feeling happy, he felt something fly over and hit him squarely on the head.
Then came a torrent of abuse from his friend: "Qi Yingxuan, you shameless bastard! You actually have the nerve to say you were the one who brought in money from Miss Ye's connections? It's hilarious! It was clearly you who used your connection with Miss Ye as a fellow student, and I only let you join the crew out of respect for her. And you, instead of helping out, are using that to glorify yourself! Aren't you ashamed? Aren't you ashamed!"
