Before transmigrating into the book, Wen Yan had acted in some dramas, but they were all low-budget productions, or even shoddy productions.
Those directors simply don't spend manpower, resources, or money to train the actors before filming begins.
The film crew of "The Voice" was her first time working with them.
Now the two are in the same production team again. Although Shen Jinghe seems reluctant on the surface, he basically answers every question.
Upon hearing that they were going to a remote mountainous area for filming and training, Su Yang immediately became worried.
"I thought your movie was filmed in the city. If it's filmed in a remote mountain area, there's nothing there, and the accommodations must be terrible."
Jinghe, you're the older brother, you absolutely must take good care of Yan Yan, okay? She's a newcomer, you absolutely can't let her get bullied on set.
Shen Jinghe remained as sharp-tongued as ever: "She doesn't need to. She publicly told people that she doesn't know me. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to take her side."
"Mom, don't worry, the director is a good director, and I believe there are no unruly people in his crew. As for the accommodations, everyone will probably be about the same. Besides, I think this will definitely be much more interesting than filming in the city, and I'm really looking forward to it."
"Alright then, I'll have my assistant prepare the things for you tomorrow."
Seeing that Shen Jinghe yawned and that they had almost finished their conversation, Su Yang urged everyone to rest.

But Su Yang couldn't fall asleep after lying in bed.
Shen Yuan noticed her unusual behavior and couldn't help but ask her.
"What's wrong? Isn't it said that staying up late is bad for your skin? Why are you tossing and turning?"
“I’m worried about Yan Yan. This child, I told her to find her a management company, but she doesn’t want to, and she doesn’t want an assistant either. I didn’t even ask her where she wanted to go before, turns out she wants to go to some remote mountain village.”
“Honey, the kids are all adults now and know what they’re doing. Being able to do a few things independently is also a good experience for them.”
“I know, but the more sensible she is, the more my heart aches for her.”
"Do you think Jinghe would really stand idly by if something happened to her? I doubt it."
"It's not certain, but you can't say for sure."
"Since you're so worried, how about this: you can talk to Jinghe tomorrow. I remember Yan Yan saying that the director of this movie is a newcomer and doesn't have much fame yet, but he happens to be friends with Jinghe."
Go find Jinghe and ask him what this director's name is. I'll have someone contact him and give him some investment so he can treat Yan Yan better.
"No way!" Su Yang immediately objected. "Yan Yan said this director hates people with connections. If you pay him to do something..."
"Honey, have you forgotten something?" Shen Yuan interrupted Su Yang. "Our Yan Yan was chosen by the director himself through a rigorous selection process. She signed the contract with the production team first, and even if I were to invest, I would be second in line."
"Oh right, I forgot about that. Okay, I'll ask Jinghe tomorrow morning."
The next morning, Su Yang found Shen Jinghe and explained her purpose to him.
Shen Jinghe understood after a moment's thought: "So, Mom, you did this for Wen Yan?"
Su Yang nodded: "Yan Yan is a girl after all, so of course she needs to eat and live better. Mom would like to do these things for you, but haven't you always kept your family background a secret from others? What's wrong? Are you jealous of Yan Yan?"
Shen Jinghe scoffed: "Me, jealous of her? Anyway, I've invested in this movie. If you invest a little more, I'll get a share of the profits."
"Okay, then Mom will give you some extra pocket money."
"No need, I have my own money. Let's give it to the poorest one in the family."
Su Yang chuckled: "You mean Yan Yan?"
Shen Jinghe snorted coldly: "Who else could it be but her, someone who doesn't even have a job?"
So when Wen Yan received the 300,000 yuan transfer and was looking at the message on her phone with great satisfaction, Shen Jinghe suddenly said something like this.
"Buy cat treats, canned food, and toys for Shen Pili."
Wen, bewildered, asked Yan, "Why?"
Shen Jinghe gave a forced smile and slowly curled the corners of his mouth: "You owe me."
Wen Yan: [What do I owe him? Does he know that I was the one who coached Shen Pili's cha-cha? Impossible, Ms. Su promised not to tell him.]
Shen Jinghe: …………“Contract for a year.”
"Why?!"
"Didn't you say you liked Shen Pili? Didn't you say you were mutually attracted? How come you can't even spend this little bit of money after you two have been together? I saw your transfer."
[Is he jealous because Ms. Su didn't transfer the money to him? Fine, I'll agree to his request then.]
"Okay, I'll be good to Shen Pili."
-
Wen Yan set off with the entire film crew.
When she gathered, she ran into an acquaintance, Wang Che, the male actor who auditioned with her that day. He also successfully got the role he auditioned for.
With someone to talk to, Wen Yan's journey wasn't too boring.
They first flew to H province, and after getting off the plane, they took a bus for more than an hour to reach the film crew's destination.
Due to the tight schedule and heavy workload, the director only gave everyone an hour and a half to rest.
Surprisingly, they were staying in the best hotel in the city, and the conditions were not as harsh as Wen Yan had imagined.
After putting away his luggage, Wang Che invited Wen Yan to have dinner together.
Wang Che was the first friend Wen Yan made on set, and the two got along quite well, so she agreed to join him.
