“Cut!”
Finally, a scene was finished in one go. Director Xu was very satisfied. He stroked his hungry stomach and asked the crew to serve him food. Even in the hot summer, after such a long delay, the lunch box would have gone cold. The originally delicious barbecued pork rice was greasy. However, Director Xu and a group of lighting technicians and cameramen still ate voraciously, and the food tasted particularly delicious.
In comparison, Shen Yu had no appetite at all. Even though I finished the show early, I didn't have the mood to eat lunch. He was picking up rice grains from the lunch box, looking unhappy.
Yan Sheng and Shen Yan surrounded Shen Yu and coaxed him to eat. Shen Yu had a sad face and cried aggrievedly: "I am really useless. No matter how I act, I can't act well. The whole crew has to NG with me. How can I have the face to eat?"
Chen Yan counseled him: "It doesn't matter if your acting is not good. We don't rely on acting to support our families anyway. Just act casually. Why are you so serious and make yourself unhappy?"
Shen Yan was so busy trying to comfort Shen Yu that she didn't notice that her words had attracted the attention of everyone in the crew.
Yan Sheng did not agree with Shen Yan's words, nor did he want his colleagues in the crew to deepen their grudge against Shen Yu. I couldn't help but interrupt Chen Yan's consolation: "Xiao Yu, don't be too anxious. You have only been in the entertainment industry for a short time and haven't acted in many dramas. Naturally, you don't have the opportunity to hone your acting skills. I don't think you need to compare with others. You just need to study the script carefully and figure out the role. Find out the similarities between you and the character Yan Yu. I believe that as long as you act in your true colors, you can interpret this role very well. Don't worry, I will be with you."
"I think what Yan Sheng said makes sense." Shen Yan rubbed Shen Yu's head and comforted him, "How old are you? How long have you been in the entertainment industry? You haven't even filmed a few idol dramas. Why do you have to think so hard that you have to compare your acting skills with those movie stars who have been acting for decades?"
"But Tao Mu hasn't filmed many plays. He doesn't even have as much experience as I do. But he was able to play the role of Zhou Yuanting so well." Shen Yu's mouth corners bent down sadly: "I just feel so bad."
"How could that be?" Before Yan Sheng could speak, Shen Yan hugged Shen Yu distressedly and explained loudly: "You are not bad at all. The reason why you can't act well is just because you are simple by nature and have not experienced much of the world. Like a blank sheet of paper, you have not experienced the influence of society, so naturally you can't act like what you want. Unlike some people, who grew up in an orphanage and have been immersed in society, they have long been accustomed to speaking to people in a human way and to ghosts in a ghost way. They are very cunning. Naturally, they have many faces. And they act in their true colors. Of course, they act well."
"Hey, young lady, can you just say what you want to say instead of making sarcastic remarks and insinuating things?"
Liu Yao and his companions were standing on the other side of the set and didn't want to bother with these people. But some people deliberately gossip, and always bring up their Tao Mu in their words. Naturally, the three people in the family who are most protective of their own people cannot do it. Old Master Song put his hands behind his back and reasoned with the Shen siblings: "Your brother's acting is not good, and he always drags the crew down. You should find a way to improve his acting skills. Instead of criticizing our Tao Mu for being cunning and having a bad character. The fact that you can say such things only proves that you are narrow-minded and jealous of virtuous people. Our Tao Mu acted well, and that's because Tao Mu has the ability. Even if he is cunning, he didn't hurt others. At least he's not like some people, who pretend to be innocent, kind, and straightforward all day long. I haven't seen him do much serious work, and I just watch him causing trouble for others everywhere."
"How can you talk like that, old man?" Shen Yan stood up angrily: "I'm talking to my brother, why are you butting in?"
"I can't stand you saying bad things about my grandson." Old Master Song was not in a hurry and said slowly.
"How funny, did I mention someone by name? You keep saying you're standing up for your grandson, but who is your grandson?" Chen Yan sneered, and her words were even more sarcastic: "Besides, what I said was not wrong. Some people are very scheming, and they are especially good at being someone's grandson. They haven't done anything yet, but they've already found a grandfather to back them up. Being someone's grandson for free, and calling him grandpa a few times with empty words can get the Song Ji signboard. Of course, our Xiao Yu can't compare to this kind of flexibility."
Director Xu just called cut and most of the crew were busy eating and taking a lunch break. The dispute between Shen Yan and Mr. Song immediately attracted everyone's attention. Hearing Shen Yan's harsh words, someone immediately stood up to speak up for her.
"Miss Shen, isn't it too much to say this?" Fang Ruoti, who has always been righteous and outspoken in the circle, took off her sunglasses impatiently: "Tao Mu's acting is better than Shen Yu's, this is a fact that anyone with eyes can see. It is also a fact that Young Master Shen's poor acting skills drag down the crew. Young Master Shen does not rely on acting to support his family. But the rest of us still want to make a good movie. Miss Shen is so noble, why not take your brother back and let him stay at home every day as the young master of his Shen family?"
"Who are you?" Chen Yan looked at the extremely beautiful Fang Ruoti and said sarcastically, "You are just an actress who sells sexiness in the movies. What qualifications do you have to talk to me?"
Fang Ruoti was so angry that she almost laughed: "What is Miss Shen?"
Before Shen Yan could explode, Fang Ruoti sneered and scolded: "He is just a nouveau riche from the mainland. Do you really think that your Shen family's power can cover the sky with one hand? This is Xiangcheng, not Shanghai. I advise Miss Shen to think before speaking and doing anything."
Hearing Fang Ruoti say this, Yan Sheng's face suddenly changed. Just as she was about to speak to smooth things over, Zhuo Yan, who had been standing by and watching coldly, spoke up first: "Miss Fang is right, you are too uneducated."
Zhuo Yan frowned and subconsciously looked at Tao Mu who had just walked out of the set and coldly watched the farce: "It's Shen Yu's own business that his acting is not good. Since he chose to be an actor, he should hone his acting skills. Instead of dragging down the crew every time he shoots a scene, and then letting his family criticize colleagues with good acting skills."
Chen Yan was furious: "Zhuo Yan, whose side are you on?"
"I don't take sides. I'm telling the truth." Zhuo Yan said calmly, "You should apologize to Mr. Tao. You should also apologize to Miss Fang. You were the first to say something hurtful."
Shen Yan glared at Zhuo Yan hatefully. Of course he refused to apologize. He stiffened his neck and said, "I'm not wrong. You are kind and gentle to women. But it's a pity that no one appreciates it."
Fang Ruoti sneered, looked at Zhuo Yan deliberately and asked, "I think you are a man who knows right from wrong and is quite handsome. How could you fall for such a shrew?"
"What did you say?" Shen Yan turned her head and looked at Fang Ruoti: "Stop trying to sow discord."
"I don't think this Miss Fang is trying to sow discord." Meng Qi smiled at Fang Ruoti. The elegance and sexiness of a mature man can make even a beautiful woman who has seen countless men unable to help but be moved. It seems that I know where Tao Mu learned those little tricks to seduce people.
It turns out that this is a family tradition.
Meng Qi didn't notice Fang Ruoti's wild thoughts. He walked to Tao Mu, couldn't help but hugged his precious son distressedly, and said softly: "With Miss Shen's upbringing, let alone this Mr. Zhuo, even if any other man was with you, if it wasn't for money, he would definitely be wronged."
"Also, Miss Shen just said that my son's ability to recognize his grandfather is amazing, and your young master Shen is ashamed of himself. I don't think so. Quite the opposite. I think young master Shen is much more capable than my son in this regard."
"That makes sense." Old Master Song took over the conversation, patted Tao Mu on the back, and analyzed slowly: "Although my grandson recognized his grandfather halfway through. But when he was five years old, he was already learning cooking at Song Ji. Miss Shen probably doesn't understand the rules of our industry. Logically speaking, Tao Mu learned cooking under me and was recognized by me, so he is the last disciple of our generation of Song Ji. At the beginning, Tao Mu asked the Yao family for justice for Song Ji, and that was a contribution. Later, he helped Song Ji to establish a chef school. It can be said that the most important reason why I gave Song Ji's photo to Tao Mu was not that he recognized me as his grandfather. It was that his efforts really made it possible for Song Ji to be passed on and carried forward."
"Compared to that, your brother is not simple. He is obviously not the biological son of the Shen family, but he can enjoy the treatment of the Shen family's children. Relying on the Shen family as a backer, he does not need to come out to support the family, so he is unwilling to work hard no matter what he does. Of course, you are also an ordinary sister. You can replace your own brother with your own hands and keep it a secret from the family for 19 years. I have to say that even if you two are not biological siblings, you are better than biological siblings."
Shen Yu, who had been silent all this time, turned pale when he heard these words. His body was swaying, as if he couldn't bear such vicious words.
"Grandpa, why are you like this?" Shen Yu looked at Mr. Song with tears in his eyes: "I have never offended you, how can you speculate about me so maliciously? I am not, I am not like that."
"Whatever you do has nothing to do with our family." If you want to confront someone, the whole family has to join in! Liu Yao patted Tao Mu's shoulder hard, looking like he was protecting his son. She is not afraid of outsiders criticizing them for bullying the minority: "As the old saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Since you know how unpleasant it feels to be maliciously speculated, don't let your sister maliciously speculate about others. Aren't you innocent and kind? You don't even have empathy. Where is your innocence and kindness?"
Shen Yu was choked by Liu Yao and couldn't say a word. I just felt ashamed and humiliated. She covered her face and ran out of the set crying.
Yan Sheng looked at everyone with a conflicted look on his face, then looked at the direction Shen Yu ran away, and finally followed him with concern.
Shen Yan cared about her younger brother, but couldn't convince Old Man Song and Liu Yao, so she could only leave angrily.
Zhuo Yan glanced at Yao Wenxiao, who had remained silent from beginning to end, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you going to chase after him?"
Isn’t this guy here to celebrate Shen Yu’s birthday? It seems that he cares particularly about Shen Yu. Why didn't he say anything when Shen Yu was choked just now, and now that Shen Yu ran away he still didn't make any movement. Instead, he stared at Tao Mu with a complicated expression?
Yao Wenxiao's feelings were indeed very complicated. He hasn't seen Shen Yu for half a year. For the past six months, while he was busy solving his own problems, he was always thinking about Shen Yu. I originally thought that Shen Yu would be very happy when I came to Xiangcheng to visit him on set.
But Shen Yu didn't. His mind seemed to be entirely focused on Yan Sheng. Even Zhuo Yan received more attention than him. Yao Wenxiao thought he would be very sad. But he was shocked to find that as Shen Yu was frequently outshined by Tao Mu on the set, Yao Wenxiao suddenly came to the terrible conclusion that "Shen Yu might not be as good as he thought."
Especially after Liu Yao pointed out that Shen Yu might not be so naive and kind, Yao Wenxiao's mood became even more complicated. He couldn't help but think of what his grandfather said to him before he came here.
The Shen family is naturally cold and indifferent, and the same is true for Shen Yuyang in the Shen family. In the past six months, Shen Yu has never contacted him on his own initiative. Yao Wenxiao could understand Shen Yu’s current situation. After his life experience was exposed, he was driven out of the Shen family by Mrs. Shen, and his life was very difficult. But Shen Yuming knew very well that after the Yao family fell into decline, Yao Wenxiao's life would not be easy either. Why have you never called him to ask how he is doing?
Thinking of this, Yao Wenxiao's face became more embarrassed. He didn't want to admit that Shen Yu, whom he had liked for so many years, would be this kind of person. But he couldn't convince himself. So Yao Wenxiao could only escape. He left the set in a state of disgrace. Instead of going to look for Shen Yu, he went straight to the airport.
"Are you okay?" Li Xiaoheng stuffed the freshly chilled mung bean soup into Tao Mu's hands. He didn't speak up when Mr. Song and Liu Yao were scolding Chen Yan. However, he hinted to Assistant Jiang to take a video of the argument and upload it to Feixun.com.
Especially the scene where Liu Yao accused Shen Yu of being unkind. Li Xiaoheng was also very curious about how the fans of Shen Yu, who always liked to brainwash people into thinking that their idol was particularly kind and noble, would explain these words.
——Don’t blame President Li for being narrow-minded. Shen Yu’s bunch of brainless fans are really disgusting. When Xiaoheng Capital sued netizens for spreading rumors that Tao Mu was taking drugs, Shen Yu's brainless fans jumped around everywhere, crying that Li Xiaoheng and Feixun.com were too cold, too ruthless, and too unkind.
Li Xiaoheng was busy with his work and was too lazy to bother with an idiot with an underdeveloped brain. But this does not mean that Li Xiaoheng does not hold a grudge. There was no chance before. Now that I have found the opportunity, of course I will take revenge. It's best to give someone a taste of their own medicine.
So when Assistant Jiang uploaded the Feixun, President Li also reminded him to make sure to put the three words "unkind" in the title in bold.
This action is really...too unkind!
