Chang Xuan ruffled his hair and said with a smile, "I dare not sit too close to Sister Ying. If her fans take any photos later, I might get criticized and trend on social media."
Although Chang Xuan is a popular male idol in ancient costume dramas in recent years, his fame is still not as great as Zhang Ying's.
Zhang Ying's fans really enjoy responding to police calls.
There was a time when a senior figure in the industry simply helped Zhang Ying, who was about to fall, on a red carpet, and was then criticized by fans and trending on social media.
Due to the angle at the time of shooting, the footage was not very clear.
Zhang Ying's fans said that the senior artist took advantage of Zhang Ying and was trying to gain popularity.
Actually, if Zhang Ying had just stood up and said a few words in support of that senior, the matter would have been over.
However, Zhang Ying seemed to have a project that was being promoted at the time, and she needed audience attention.
Therefore, no one has come forward to clarify the facts.
The senior colleague, burdened with the infamy, was so enraged that he disregarded his gentlemanly conduct and publicly berated Zhang Ying within the industry.
Therefore, Chang Xuan was actually a little afraid of Zhang Ying when filming.
Whether they are actors or celebrities, they all value their reputation.
Chang Xuan's career is still on the rise, and he wants to stay in the industry for a long time.
Of course, he also cherishes his reputation and doesn't want to be called in by the police.
"Alright, let's go!"
Director Wei stretched and glanced at Xu Yanyu with a hint of regret.
Fortunately, Xu Yanyu will be filming here soon, so he'll discuss the end credits song with her when there are fewer people around.
At this moment, Director Wei seemed to remember something and said to Xu Yanyu, "Yanyu, do you know Duan Nianzhuang?"
The one in black is Duan Nianzhuang, and he will play Yongli.
The one with dimples is Chang Xuan, who plays the male lead.
He suddenly remembered to introduce someone to Xu Yanyu.
Xu Yanyu, who was busy fiddling with her computer, looked up and smiled at the two people at the door, saying, "Hello, I'm Xu Yanyu. I'll be playing Liu Jing next."
Chang Xuan's eyes flickered as he looked at Xu Yanyu. He punched Duan Nianzhuang lightly and joked, "The director has replaced you with another number one beauty. You're lucky, kid!"
Xu Yanyu felt somewhat uncomfortable upon hearing Chang Xuan's words.
She corrected, "The director didn't change actors for anyone; it was so that the TV series could be filmed well."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued packing her things.
Director Wei rolled his eyes at Chang Xuan, saying, "If you can't control your mouth, you'll be in for a world of hurt."
"No matter who plays the role of the most beautiful woman, just don't delay the filming schedule or affect the quality of the TV series."
Duan Nianzhuang glanced at Xu Yanyu, uttered those words, and turned to walk out the door.
Xu Yanyu paused in packing her things; this was because they didn't trust her acting skills!
Her gaze sharpened, and her hands moved faster.
She picked up her bag from the table and put the notebook inside.
It was nearly 6:30 when the group arrived at the hotel that Director Wei had booked.
When Zhang Ying saw everyone come in, she stood up with a smile and said, "Director Wei must be very busy today. It's already 6:30 and you're only just getting here."
Director Wei glanced at Zhang Ying and immediately thought of her taking on multiple projects at once.
But considering that the series was almost finished filming, it was impossible to change actors halfway through.
He nodded casually, as if in response to Zhang Ying's question.
Director Wei turned to Xu Yanyu and said, "Sit next to me."
Director Wei arranged for Xu Yanyu to stay by his side, just so he could talk to her about the scene later.
The main characters' scenes have been mostly filmed, and Xu Yanyu only joined the crew today. He has a lot to explain to her.
Moreover, the script was changed, and Xu Yanyu's role became more important, so he had to find time to talk to Xu Yanyu about the scenes.
However, Zhang Ying, who was standing nearby, felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.
She also received a call from the company today, informing her that Director Wei was quite bothered by her taking on roles in films directed by other directors.
She had originally planned to take advantage of the meal to properly explain the matter to Director Wei.
But she felt that Director Wei was unwilling to communicate with her and wanted to send her aside.
It's worth noting that since filming began, she has always been seated next to Director Wei.
Even when Xi Rubao was around, you had to sit behind her.
Why does Xu Yanyu, who just joined the crew, already seem to be stealing the spotlight?
If she hadn't learned from Xi Rubao that the change of actors was due to an accident, she would have really thought Xu Yanyu was someone with connections, judging from Director Wei's behavior.
She was unhappy, and her gaze towards Xu Yanyu became somewhat cold.
Xu Yanyu noticed a woman's bag at the spot Director Wei pointed to and quickly said, "Director Wei, I'll sit with Mimi."
Director Wei turned to Zhang Ying, "I need to give Xu Yanyu some acting instructions later..."
At this moment, Chang Xuan, who was sitting next to Director Wei, quickly said, "Yan Yu, why don't you come and sit in my seat?"
Director Wei said, "You have to give up your spot to Duan Nianzhuang, and I also need to give him some pointers on the play. The script has been revised quite a bit today, and I need to have a good talk with the two of them about the play."
Zhang Ying felt a little better at this point. She picked up her bag from the table and looked at Xu Yanyu with a smile, "Yanyu, welcome to our crew. Come sit here."
Xu Yanyu smiled and thanked Zhang Ying, then moved to the seat next to Director Wei.
After a round of mutual flattery and toasts, everyone was very enthusiastic towards Xu Yanyu.
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Director Wei said to them, "Because of a sudden accident, Tao Mimi and I have revised the script again."
“Duan Nianzhuang, you may have to work a little harder, the lines you memorized before will change.”
