Chapter 66 Threatening Text Message
There weren't many people who auditioned for this movie. It could even be said that there were very few people.
Including Xu Zhizhi, there were only four people. When Xu Zhizhi found out that there were only four people, she was stunned.
This was the formal audition with the smallest number of people she had ever attended.
This movie has very high requirements for acting skills. If the acting is not good enough, it is easy for the character to become simple, stupid, bad and unlikable.
In comparison, there were a lot of people auditioning for the male and female leads. According to the staff, when the male and female leads auditioned yesterday, many celebrities they knew showed up.
Xu Zhizhi smiled helplessly, but then she thought again and felt that it was true. If she were allowed to choose, she would also try to be the heroine.
A positive character who has been tortured countless times by the villains but still insists on destroying the criminal den. He has a high IQ and EQ. He reacts very quickly to the villains in the script, and is not mindless or impulsive. This will definitely be liked by people.
Of course, the male lead is a little worse, he has much less scenes than Xu Zhizhi, and his character is not so perfect. The best is the female lead, the script and character are not bad.
Xu Zhizhi looked at the team of auditioning heroines and her own team of villains, and lamented in her heart that villains are really unpopular.
"No. 2 Xu Zhizhi, it's your turn to audition."
Just as Xu Zhizhi was thinking, the staff called her in for an audition.
Xu Zhizhi quickly replied, "Okay, right away."
She was the second one, and the one before her had just finished, so her turn came quickly.
The investment in this drama is good, with an S-level rating. It is invested by a well-known domestic film and television production company, with a luxurious lineup and sufficient funds. The director and screenwriter are all very good, and there are familiar actors, including Yue Nian, who has worked with Xu Zhizhi before.
When they were on the set of "Deception", she and the other party left a deep impression on each other because of the filming. That clip was also the clip where Xu Zhizhi won the Best Supporting Actress, so the two were very familiar with each other.
Xu Zhizhi guessed that the other party had already been selected for one of the roles of the old police officer, and only that role was suitable for him. The age and setting of the other roles did not fit Yue Nian's image.
After seeing him, she smiled at him, then moved her eyes, bowed slightly, and stood up and said, "Hello, director. I choose the scene where the villain Ye Xin punishes the escaped man."
She performed this scene nearly twenty times yesterday and she is very familiar with it.
The movie was so good that she decided to be conservative and use a scene she had already practiced to be sure.
"Wait, let Yue Nian try it with you," Director Lin Guo suddenly said, his eyes tilted towards Yue Nian who was sitting next to him, letting him act with Xu Zhizhi.
He deliberately made things difficult for Xu Zhizhi. When acting opposite Yue Nian, Xu Zhizhi could be easily overwhelmed, so that the opponent would retreat in the face of difficulty.
He himself was not satisfied with Xu Zhizhi playing this role, but the investors liked it, and Xu Zhizhi was popular enough to carry the box office, so he had to agree to let Xu Zhizhi give it a try.
When he saw Xu Zhizhi on the scene, he became even more dissatisfied.
Xu Zhizhi looks so beautiful, as charming as a peach and plum, and has an excellent temperament. And with her long hair tied up, she looks exactly like Ye Xin in the play.
He has seen other roles played by Xu Zhizhi and her acting is indeed good, but he just doesn't like her. To him, Xu Zhizhi is at most a backup.
The reason why Yue Nian was called up to act was to use this veteran actor to suppress Xu Zhizhi and make Xu Zhizhi give up.
Yue Nian was cueed, and had no choice but to stand up and partner with Xu Zhizhi.
Xu Zhizhi was also stunned, then looked at Yue Nian with a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
You know, she really prepared a needle today.
Although it won't really stab you, it looks very scary. She can fool the system with her performance, and Yue Nian will probably be frightened for a while.
So Xu Zhizhi's expression was full of sympathy and pity, which made Yue Nian feel a little scared.
The last time Xu Zhizhi performed a killing move on him, he still felt horrified whenever he recalled it.
I don’t know what the outcome will be when I meet her this time.
"Sorry," Xu Zhizhi said softly.
Before Yue Nian could react, Xu Zhizhi's expression had changed. She scanned the entire place with cold and cruel eyes, and her gaze fell indifferently on the runaway who was beaten into a pig's head. "Everyone, what are the rules? Do you still remember?"
"Everyone, I don't want to do anything, but some people have thoughts that they shouldn't have. Have I treated you unfairly? Or have I not given you the commission? I've been so good to you, and you actually want to escape!"
She reached out and placed Yue Nian's hand on the table set up at the audition site, her eyes filled with a nonchalant and horrified smile.
The sharp and shining needle was taken out, and Ye Xin twisted it to observe the sharpness. Seems to be thinking this through the flesh. She smiled again at the feeling of her body, and then without hesitation, she plunged into Yue Nian's fingertips.
Yue Nian cooperated, but because of the excessive pain, he opened his mouth but couldn't shout.
As expected of a veteran actor, even his on-the-spot reactions are enough to make people feel strongly involved.
As Ye Xin continued to move, Yue Nian's pain finally began to get rid of the voiceless stage and he began to yell in pain.
The coldness and malice in Ye Xin's eyes kept surging, and he was also paying attention to the reactions of the people around him while taking action. Everyone who was swept by his eyes felt a chill on their backs, a strong sense of oppression came out, and fear slowly grew.
Those people lowered their heads one after another, fearing that Ye Xin would think they had ulterior motives.
Ye Xin spoke leisurely and began to criticize the people in front of him.
She continued as she dug into the room like sewing clothes, "I can't bear it, but there are rules and regulations. I hope everyone remembers that I'm not doing charity here. I hope everyone can stay here peacefully until the day when they make enough money to go home."
After he finished speaking, everyone on the scene fell silent, and a chill slowly crept into their brains.
My scalp is tingling.
Xu Zhizhi really made everyone present feel terrified. It was the kind of feeling that gave people goosebumps all over their bodies and made them feel as if they were deeply trapped in it. It was really terrifying.
When Yue Nian was released by Xu Zhizhi, he felt somewhat powerless.
Originally he wanted to just be a tool, but the needle Xu Zhizhi was holding made him instantly nervous.
With Xu Zhizhi's guidance, he quickly got into the role and gradually felt the fear of being dominated.
Xu Zhizhi reached out her hand to help the senior up, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I couldn't stop myself."
The system's standards for judging maliciousness were somewhat high, and she knew this from her past experience of obtaining maliciousness.
So in yesterday's practice, she gave it her all.
She had performed this scene nearly twenty times, so she couldn't control herself from the beginning. She just gave it her all and followed the judgment standards recognized by the system.
But judging from everyone's reactions, she must have been quite successful?
Xu Zhizhi looked at the people auditioning on the spot, and they all avoided Xu Zhizhi's sight.
This little girl looked harmless when she first came on stage, but now the more I look at her the more frightened I become. I feel like she's going to stab them with a needle in the next second!
It was like the time when they saw Madam Rong in their childhood, and their scalps suddenly felt tingling.
Xu Zhizhi was stunned, then realized something and acted like a well-behaved child.
"Ahem..." The director coughed a few times and said in a slightly harsh voice, "It's a good performance, but..."
Xu Zhizhi's heart skipped a beat when she saw the director's expression. Could it be that the villain of this movie has also been decided?
She shouldn't... be so unlucky!
Xu Zhizhi pursed her lips, looking at Director Lin Guo with a myriad of thoughts in her mind.
Director Lin Guo looked at Xu Zhizhi's expression, thought for a moment, and then said, "I think your image... is inconsistent with the image of Ye Xin in the play... so..."
"Okay, I know..." Xu Zhizhi lowered her head with sadness in her eyes, "Even if I have regrets, I still want to thank the director for the opportunity here."
Forget it, it’s no big deal to be rejected again, she will have other opportunities.
Xu Zhizhi could only comfort herself in this way.
As for nice words, of course they should be said.
At least the director didn't bring anyone around to humiliate her. She still had to be decent. That's what adult life is like.
Director Lin Guo was stunned, thinking about what he had said before, and realized that Xu Zhizhi misunderstood that he was going to reject her.
He stood up quickly, held out his hand, and said quickly: "No! Don't get me wrong! I'm talking about whether you can accept changing your image!"
"Ah?" Xu Zhizhi looked up at the director.
Is that so?
Director Lin Guo explained again: "I originally wanted to ask if you could change your image. Long hair doesn't match the other party's fierce personality. You may need to cut it off. The makeup will also be different from your previous makeup."
"I thought you were dissatisfied with me. Was it my image? I can change my image. It is an actor's duty to be close to the role." Xu Zhizhi smiled and said earnestly.
The director walked forward with a satisfied look on his face, "I think you can do it! You have a good chance! I will continue to try other people, and if there is no problem, I will notify you as soon as possible to sign the contract, and you just go back and wait for your chance!"
"Thank you, director!" Xu Zhizhi bowed gently.
The director nodded, "Go back!"
Xu Zhizhi smiled at the others, then turned and left.
After Xu Zhizhi left, people started whispering to each other.
Their movie requires a strong performance to show the viciousness of the villain. Most people simply cannot achieve such a double outburst of emotions and momentum. Xu Zhizhi is really too strong.
"I think Xu Zhizhi can be chosen. I have asked around and she doesn't have the arrogance of some young actors. Whether in terms of acting skills or popularity, she is the best choice."
"I've seen her play other roles and she's very stable and her acting skills have improved significantly."
"There are only two auditions left. Will Xu Zhizhi be given a contract after they are done? I heard this morning that someone in the industry is also preparing to invite Xu Zhizhi. She auditioned for their play but was not given the contract at that time. I heard that they are preparing to give the contract today."
The producer, Yue Nian, and the screenwriter were chatting.
The last sentence was said by Yue Nian. His friend worked in that crew, so he knew some of the situation.
Director Lin Guo suddenly looked at Yue Nian and asked excitedly, "Which crew? Are you trying to steal my people?!"
"It's a costume fantasy drama, I forgot the name, Xu Zhizhi auditioned a few days ago. I heard that Zhao Fangfei was chosen at the time, but later Zhao Fangfei insisted on playing the female lead, so the role became vacant. The director was very angry, but remembered that Xu Zhizhi performed well, so he prepared to invite her to the role today." Yue Nian told the truth.
The director pursed his lips and moved his chin, signaling the crew to quickly call in the other audition actors.
Once people come, they have to try it out. It’s not easy for people to come here.
Maybe there really is a surprise, and if it doesn't work out, there will be a backup. It would be better to compete with Xu Zhizhi.
But the fact slapped the director in the face. After the other two finished their performance, the director's face turned green. There is no harm without contrast. With such a good performance, the rest of the performance is a bit like a fish eye.
One of the directors was particularly optimistic about him and personally invited him despite pressure from investors.
The performance was far from satisfactory. It was obvious to the naked eye that there was no careful preparation at all, and it was extremely perfunctory. The look on his face showed the displeasure of being forced upon him, which made Lin Guo feel upset.
He watched the man leave without saying a word.
After the door closed, he immediately called the assistant director and said anxiously, "Go contact Xu Zhizhi and sign the role contract as soon as possible, before someone else grabs it first."
He admitted that he was young just now and didn't know that it was difficult to find young people with good acting skills, so he could only compete quickly with others for them.
That's not right. Xu Zhi's acting skills not only crush the younger generation, but he is also a leader even among the middle-aged and elderly.
The key is that the other party is very serious! It can be seen that the lines and movements have been practiced many times in private, and he performed the whole scene with Yue Jun without any stuttering.
Add to that her good looks and popularity, and she's the perfect candidate!
It also requires investors to have a keen eye.
"Weren't you not in a hurry just now?" Upon hearing this, Yue Nian looked at Director Lin Guo and teased.
The director glanced at Yue Nian and said, "You are so smart. You think I don't know that you said that on purpose!"
"Hahahaha," Yue Nian just smiled and said nothing, pretending to be stupid.
He was looking forward to working with Xu Zhizhi. The girl was well-mannered and polite, and her acting was very good. He would feel safe working with such a girl.
If he didn't expect to work with Xu Zhizhi, he wouldn't have deliberately mentioned that other crews also wanted to sign Xu Zhizhi.
He has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, how could he like to talk too much?
The others laughed too.
The screenwriter looked at Yue Nian, then his eyes fell on the director, "I think we can call Xu Zhizhi and express our intention to cooperate. She misunderstood just now and thought that you wanted to refuse. It might be better to call now to express your intention to sign a contract."
"Indeed, although Xu Zhizhi was rejected by the costume fantasy drama at that time, considering the resources and the fact that Xu Zhizhi might want to change her role, she might consider taking the role," said an assistant director.
He specifically studied the roles played by Xu Zhizhi and felt that Xu Zhizhi might be inclined towards that role.
This is not alarmist talk. Xu Zhizhi's roles have become more repetitive, so she will most likely give priority to transformation. This will allow for diversified development in the future.
The director listened, thought about it and nodded, "Okay, do you have the phone number of Xu Zhizhi's agent? I'll call her and explain the situation."
If it were anyone else, he would rather change someone than waste time talking.
But he really likes Xu Zhizhi's acting skills. If Xu Zhizhi changes her image, she will definitely be able to bring the role to life.
As recognition increases, the entire movie will also gain some quality.
Just like playing the role of an emperor, some people act out the majesty without anger, vividly portraying the mood swings and scheming of the superior, while others only act out the childishness, being as still as a puppet, but moving like a mad rabbit, a complete madman.
Xu Zhizhi walked out of the set with a smile on her face. She was happy even though the director didn't say he would choose her.
Because she was not fooled, she was competing fairly with others.
Before she experienced the feeling of being pissed off, Xu Zhizhi didn't think it was a big deal. Now that she has experienced it, Xu Zhizhi can feel the goodness of fairness.
Yun Ziwei didn't ask, but she knew from Xu Zhizhi's expression that the result should be good.
Feng Jie fanned Xu Zhizhi and added some color to her lips before asking, "How is it?"
Now that they were all in the car, Feng Jie felt that she could ask.
"The director asked me to wait for news," Xu Zhizhi said truthfully.
Yun Ziwei nodded, "Then there is a chance. We will do our best and not ask for too much."
"Yeah," Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.
The car drove out of the audition hotel and they prepared to go back to the company to deal with some work matters.
After driving for more than ten minutes and almost arriving at the company, Yun Ziwei's phone rang.
"Hello," Yun Ziwei answered the phone.
Xu Zhizhi and Feng Jie kept silent and waited for Yun Ziwei to answer the call.
What Xu Zhizhi didn't expect was that after Yun Ziwei answered the phone, she looked at Xu Zhizhi and said, "You mean, we should sign the contract now, right?"
Xu Zhizhi widened her eyes. Which role is this?
At this time, after listening to the conversation, Yun Ziwei covered the microphone of her cell phone and looked at Xu Zhizhi, "It's about that costume drama. They asked you to sign a contract."
"Isn't this role Zhao Fangfei's? Why doesn't she play it anymore?" Xu Zhizhi raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.
Yun Ziwei was also curious, so she asked directly, hasn't it been confirmed that Zhao Fangfei will be starring in the role?
Many people knew about this news. The entertainment industry is full of shrewd people. Many people heard what Zhao Fangfei said before. Seeing that Xu Zhizhi was eliminated, others also knew what was going on.
Although she asked the question, Yun Ziwei was not sure whether the other party would give an answer.
To Yun Ziwei's surprise, the other party quickly gave the answer, but this answer made Yun Ziwei look unhappy.
She covered the microphone again, "She's going to play the leading role."
"So you're leaving this position vacant to let me, the backup candidate, take over?" Xu Zhizhi asked with a hint of sarcasm on her face.
Yun Ziwei nodded and asked Xu Zhizhi, "Are you still considering it?"
"No, I won't consider it," Xu Zhizhi said without hesitation, "Even if there is no role to play, I won't consider it."
Not only was it because she was fooled by the crew, causing her efforts to go to waste, but another reason was that Xu Zhizhi didn't want to be in the same crew with Zhao Fangfei, as she was not used to intrigue with others.
How can a crew that is unhappy at the beginning be happy later on?
People like Zhao Fangfei who make a fuss even when there is nothing to do probably think about sex all day long, and then make up dirt on others to form cliques and exclude others. Then I probably won't be able to film properly and will be annoyed all day long.
Her body is also her body, and she can't let it get hurt by anger.
She has already earned so much money, it would be a big deal if she got sick or died of anger.
After thinking it over, Yun Ziwei nodded in agreement. There was no need for Xu Zhizhi to go and cause trouble for her, so she politely rejected the other party, saying that Xu Zhizhi had been too busy with many announcements recently.
The other party tried to persuade her a few times, but Yun Ziwei remained unmoved, so he could only give up.
At this time, the car arrived at the destination. Xu Zhizhi put on a mask and got off the car.
Although she was prepared, Xu Zhizhi still felt like she was being photographed.
This is the norm during this period. After the hit movie "The Walking Dead" became popular, more paparazzi followed the movie and took photos.
Even when Xu Zhizhi occasionally goes out, the frequency of meeting fans has increased.
Whenever Xu Zhizhi attends an event, she can clearly feel that her enthusiasm has increased since her appearance.
And many of them are passers-by, which is a treatment we have never had before.
In an instant, the number of people who knew me increased tenfold.
This is also what Yun Ziwei called popularity among passers-by. She began to be barely remembered by ordinary people. This is a sign that a person has become truly famous.
Yun Ziwei once lamented that ordinary people have to do so much to receive such an honor.
But for Xu Zhizhi, everything went so smoothly many times more.
But she also knew how much Xu Zhizhi had paid behind the scenes.
To what extent should those characters be thought out in order to present the appearance on the screen?
She truly conquered everyone with her acting skills, without any deliberate marketing.
After entering the company and sitting in the office, Xu Zhizhi took off her mask and poured herself some water to drink.
"You don't have any emotions at all! I thought you would have some regrets or something." Yun Ziwei looked at Xu Zhizhi and smiled.
Xu Zhizhi put down the cup and picked up the phone, "It's nothing."
"You have a good attitude," Yun Ziwei praised.
Xu Zhizhi shook her head. "No, I just don't care."
"Hahahaha," Yun Ziwei was amused by Xu Zhizhi.
At this moment, another call came to Yun Ziwei.
It was still a Beijing number, and Yun Ziwei answered it without hesitation.
Because they were in the office, Yun Ziwei just turned on the speaker.
A male voice came over, "Hello, are you Xu Zhizhi's agent?"
Yun Ziwei was about to ask who the person opposite her was, but Xu Zhizhi got there first. She stood up from the sofa and walked to Yun Ziwei's side.
"Hello, are you Director Lin Guo?" Xu Zhizhi asked in surprise.
The person opposite him paused for a moment and said with a smile: "It's me. You have a good memory and still remember my voice." When you think a person is good, then everything about her is good. Lin Guo also lamented his extreme personality.
"Director Lin, what can I do for you?" Xu Zhizhi asked curiously.
Yun Ziwei looked at Xu Zhizhi who suddenly became confused, held her forehead and sighed, but didn't say anything in the end.
Lin Guo also found it somewhat amusing, so he said directly: "I won't beat around the bush, I'm calling to invite you to play the role of Ye Xin."
After thinking for a while, he added: "Your acting skills are very good. I believe you can interpret the role of Ye Xin very well."
Yun Ziwei was really excited when she heard Lin Guo's invitation, because Xu Zhizhi's efforts this time were not in vain.
"Thank you for your kindness. I am willing to play the role of Ye Xin well and will follow the crew's opinions on the character image." Xu Zhizhi answered without hesitation.
When the other party heard this, he smiled and said, "The contract is now officially settled. I look forward to working with you."
"I'm looking forward to working with you too!" Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.
The call ended as the two exchanged pleasantries.
Yun Ziwei looked at Xu Zhizhi and said, "I didn't expect that there would be a silver lining after all the darkness."
"Get ready, we are going to sign the contract and get ready to join the team." Xu Zhizhi said with a smile.
This time, the preparations were much more extensive than before. For example, they had to go to Country T for the actual filming, which was basically half domestic and half foreign.
The weather in Country T during this period was very suitable for filming. So after signing the contract, they started preparing passports and related items.
Once the time is up, it's time to set off.
Yun Ziwei nodded and began to prepare Xu Zhizhi's passport.
Both she and Feng Jie are going this time, but Yun Ziwei is worried about Feng Jie going alone.
She felt that things would definitely not be peaceful around Xu Zhizhi, so she wanted to go this time to keep an eye on Xu Zhizhi.
While Yun Ziwei was communicating with "Invincible Defense" about the contract, she was also preparing other things, muttering to herself, "We are going abroad this time, we must keep a low profile. Country T is actually not very safe, we must be well prepared when we go there..."
Xu Zhizhi sat aside and listened to Yun Ziwei's mutterings, smiled, and then kept agreeing with her.
She is not an impulsive person. She is very rational and will not do anything dangerous.
Foreign countries are not like China. Domestic laws largely restrict the extent to which bad people can do bad things. Foreign countries are different. If you jump on danger, your chances of death will double.
When Feng Jie heard the news when she came back from outside, she looked at Xu Zhizhi with the same worry as Yun Ziwei.
"I'll do a few more sets of bench presses to gain a little more strength before I leave," Feng Jie said directly.
Xu Zhizhi held her forehead and said, "I really won't act impulsively. You don't have to be like this!"
Unfortunately, what she said was not recognized.
Soon the two parties officially signed the contract. Lin Guo Mingxian also knew some things about Xu Zhizhi, and comforted Xu Zhizhi that he had found a professional security team.
They have also reported their filming in Country T to the authorities, so as long as they don't go out, they won't be in danger.
Xu Zhizhi was completely convinced. Who did these people think of her?
It doesn't matter, she will prove with her strength that she won't cause trouble on purpose!
Of course, going abroad for filming was not immediate, and the preparation time was as long as half a month.
Xu Zhizhi’s household registration was originally in that small city, but because she was a trafficked child and her parents did not cancel her household registration, her original household registration was restored.
That is the household registration of Yueyue, and the name follows Xu Zhizhi's idea and remains the current name.
This also solved a major problem for Xu Zhizhi in buying a house. Otherwise, even if Xu Zhizhi saved money, she would not be able to buy a house in Beijing.
Since Xu Zhizhi’s household registration is local, it was easy for her to get a passport.
Feng Jie, however, has some troubles. She has to go back to her hometown to apply for a passport.
Fortunately, the crew gave her enough time and Xu Zhizhi also gave her travel expenses, so she was able to happily go home and spend two days with her family.
Xu Zhizhi took the script home and lived there. She would lie on the sofa or bed and read the script every day. Apart from eating and washing up, she basically did nothing.
Having enjoyed the life of lying down in advance, Xu Zhizhi felt truly comfortable.
Originally, she was not used to it, and she felt a lot of psychological pressure because she had to behave unruly in front of two professors from Beijing University.
But gradually, she began to feel truly loved.
For example, her room was redecorated after she was found, and everything in the room was arranged according to her ideas. In order to make the whole room harmonious, her parents also replaced other furniture to match the style.
For example, in the closet, the clothes are carefully selected, washed, dried and put back in place. There are also toiletries, skin care products and various exquisite accessories, etc., all fully equipped.
In addition, after the two realized that Xu Zhizhi was not adapting, they began to comfort Xu Zhizhi, saying that they were used to living outdoors and their own habits were not good, so there was no need to accommodate each other, and they were also very casual.
Shen Junyu and Li Fengqing finally found their daughter and doted on her, allowing Xu Zhizhi to do whatever they wanted.
Xu Zhizhi originally wanted to do something, but was sternly rejected by the couple.
The two people's attitude towards Xu Zhizhi is that it's best if she is happy. Xu Zhizhi is already tired enough from work, and they don't want her to suffer any more.
Whenever they had free time, they would buy all kinds of delicious food, and even some interesting dolls or toys for Xu Zhizhi.
Make up for Xu Zhizhi's lost childhood and make her later life the most fulfilling.
Xu Zhizhi stayed there for more than ten days, and even felt a little uncomfortable when she left.
Shen Junyu was even more reluctant to let her beautiful daughter go.
Li Fengqing was reluctant to let her go, but his daughter was grown up and it would be good for her to have her own career.
Xu Zhizhi waved goodbye, immersed in the love and care of the two people, it was really hard to extricate herself.
During this time, some relatives came home, and Xu Zhizhi heard that her father's mother was making trouble again. She even tried to run away from the hospital and morally kidnap Xu Zhizhi to make her forgive her.
Unexpectedly, before she even left the hospital, she was blocked by Li Fengqing, who told her to either go back to recuperate or have him send her to a sanatorium immediately.
The other party was scared and went back immediately.
But he couldn't escape it in the end. After the treatment was over, Li Fengqing quickly sent him to a strict nursing home.
Xu Zhizhi also sighed again that they were a very good pair of parents, but they were unlucky and met vicious relatives.
She agreed with her father's approach. She hated the kind of situation where no matter what the family members did, they would just tolerate and endure it, and in the end the good guys were tortured and couldn't bear it anymore and resisted, and the bad guys resisted until they realized they were wrong and ended up fighting with their family members.
Completely forgetting previous injuries can actually increase a person's blood pressure.
Fortunately, Li Fengqing is not such a person. He decisively stops the continued harm and never forgives unforgivable harm.
After hearing this, she became much more natural at home.
After packing her things and checking in her luggage, Xu Zhizhi boarded a plane to a foreign country.
After five or six hours of flight, Xu Zhizhi and others set foot in a foreign country.
This was Xu Zhizhi's first time going abroad, and she was a little nervous at first because she had never had the opportunity to go abroad like this before.
It was only after Yun Ziwei on the road kept comforting her that she finally relaxed.
Li Fengqing had learned a little T language, and Xu Zhizhi had also learned a few sentences, so they had no problem with simple communication.
Moreover, there was no chance for communication unless it was necessary, because Lin Guo knew the situation, so the filming was basically closed.
If they want to go out, Lin Guo and his team will also arrange a guide to prevent the crew from being cheated.
Although Xu Zhizhi yearned for the scenery of Country T, she had no intention of going out. The yearning of a lying person was only in her brain, and her body had no power to move.
There were more than 30 crew members and actors who came with us. After getting off the plane, they were picked up by a bus and then taken to the booked hotel.
The filming location is about ten minutes away from here. It is a fraud park that has been closed down before. The scene can be used simply by cleaning it up.
Lin Guo looked at the people gathering to get off the bus and reminded everyone that if they really wanted to go out, they could only go to scenic spots and make sure to keep their passports and money safe.
And I reminded him again and again that it is best to report to him and use the tour guide he found.
"Director Lin Guo has shot other movies in this country before, so he is very familiar with this set," Yun Ziwei explained.
Xu Zhizhi nodded and said, "I will definitely remember that."
"Yeah," Yun Ziwei said.
Xu Zhizhi looked at the director and thought of what Qin Su had told her before she left. He also repeatedly told Xu Zhizhi to be careful of some local people.
Xu Zhizhi naturally agreed patiently, after all, these people really wanted her best.
After Director Lin finished speaking, everyone moved their luggage and checked into the hotel.
The hotel is in Southeast Asian style, bright and passionate. The room assigned is very nice, and you can even see the sea. Xu Zhizhi is quite happy.
After Xu Zhizhi finished packing, Feng Jie came to her house and said that she saw a swimming pool in the hotel.
Xu Zhizhi was about to say that she didn't bring a swimsuit when she was surprised by the swimsuit that Feng Jie took out.
She was impressed by Feng Jie's thoughtfulness for even preparing a swimsuit.
After changing into swimsuits together with Yun Ziwei, the three of them went swimming happily.
Because the hotel was booked by the crew, Xu Zhizhi and the others were not afraid of strangers coming.
This drama was well invested in and was very generous in spending.
Xu Zhizhi's pay for the film alone reached 7 million, breaking her highest pay record.
The male and female protagonists are both actors with extremely high fame, and their salaries are one million more than Xu Zhizhi's. You can imagine how generous the crew is.
All airfare, meals and accommodation are included, as well as security during the entire filming period, and a professional company was also invited.
Yun Ziwei was still gossiping with Xu Zhizhi when she saw the male and female protagonists coming over one after another.
The male lead is a professional movie star who only acts in movies and his performance is pretty good. He looks upright and tough, which makes him very suitable for the role of a policeman.
His name is Hu Feng.
The actress who plays the female lead is Ning Yuehua, who, like Xu Zhizhi, can act in any role. But the two have different backgrounds. Xu Zhizhi is the type with no background, while Ning Yuehua's aunt is a first-line actress Ning Rong. Her parents were both famous actors before, so they are considered second-generation stars.
She looks like a beautiful girl next door, with a heroic look between her eyebrows, which makes her very suitable for positive roles. I heard that her acting skills are very good, but Xu Zhizhi has not studied them carefully.
Xu Zhizhi saw the two and took the initiative to greet them, "Hello, seniors. We didn't have the chance to meet before, but now we finally meet. My name is Xu Zhizhi, please take care of me in the future."
Both of them can be regarded as seniors in terms of age and the year they entered the entertainment industry, so Xu Zhizhi is very polite and calls him senior.
"I've heard of your great name for a long time. Just call me Hu Feng," Hu Feng said with a graceful manner and an elegant smile.
Xu Zhizhi followed suit and shouted, "Brother Hu."
On the other side, Ning Yuehua simply ignored Xu Zhizhi and walked away, as if she didn't hear what Xu Zhizhi said at all.
Xu Zhizhi didn't care. She wasn't someone who everyone loved, so it was normal for her to be disliked.
"Don't mind it, Yuehua has a cold personality," Hu Feng on the side smiled and made excuses for Ning Yuehua, and in the process livened up the awkward atmosphere.
Xu Zhizhi shook her head, "I don't care, everyone just have fun."
Yun Ziwei and Feng Jie were not the type to gossip about others, and they knew Xu Zhizhi didn't care about it. After many such experiences, they no longer cared about it.
Xu Zhizhi and Feng Jie swam for a while, and then, without knowing who started it, they started splashing water at each other.
Yun Ziwei was accidentally injured, and in the end the three of them started playing with each other by pouring water on them.
When the splashing ended, the hair of the three people was all wet.
Then the three of them lay down beside the infinity pool, looking at the blazing sunset in the distance.
Coconut trees are everywhere in the distance, and together with the peaceful sea, it is a beautiful scene like a painting.
Xu Zhizhi took out her cell phone, took a picture of the scene, and sent it to Qin Su.
Yun Ziwei at the side was even quicker and took a photo of Xu Zhizhi and Xi Yang directly. It was only from the shoulders up, which was nice and not showing off.
Feng Jie took selfies and occasionally took photos with Xu Zhizhi.
The three of them had a lot of fun and were very happy.
This is also thanks to Feng Jie's thorough preparation, even preparing a waterproof cell phone case, so they can take photos without worries.
Seeing this scene, Ning Yuehua's face looked a little unhappy. She glared at her assistant, then put on her bathrobe and left.
The others were playing nearby.
Hu Feng shook his head when he saw this. Ning Yuehua's temper was still as bad as ever.
Xu Zhizhi, on the other hand, gets along so well with her assistant and agent that they are like sisters.
He looked at the agent beside him with a sigh, "Why don't you get along with me? Take a picture for me!"
"Get lost! Are you as pretty as me? It's a waste of energy to take pictures of you." The agent scolded him without hesitation.
Hu Feng's mouth twitched, "Boy, you've got it."
The agent didn't care and just watched the sunset.
He was too busy and hadn't seen such beautiful natural scenery for a long time.
The summer sunset comes and goes quickly, and soon the sky begins to darken. Xu Zhizhi and the other two wrap themselves in bathrobes and go back.
Xu Zhizhi took a shower, changed her clothes, and then went out to have dinner at the hotel.
The dinner provided by the hotel are all local specialties of Country T. Apart from some minor discomforts, the taste is pretty good.
After eating, Xu Zhizhi returned to her room, walked around for a while, and then sat by the floor-to-ceiling window to read the script.
She has read it many times, but she is still inspired every time she reads it. She even wrote a biography of the character and did a criminal profile of him.
This is not difficult for Xu Zhizhi, as long as she plays the role well and deserves the pay.
As night fell, Xu Zhizhi turned on all the lights in the house, closed the doors and windows, and then started playing with her mobile phone.
Qin Su commented that her photos were beautiful.
After thanking the other party, Xu Zhizhi also sent a greeting message to her parents.
The two of them were busy with classes before, and sending the message at this time was just the right time so that the other party still had time to reply to her.
Seeing their caring words, Xu Zhizhi's discomfort about coming to a foreign country was alleviated a lot.
While Xu Zhizhi was having an international chat, Lin Guo and others finally finished their work and returned to the hotel.
A lot of their equipment was shipped from China, and due to communication problems, they were almost not allowed to enter the venue.
After the communication was finally completed and the equipment was installed, security had to be arranged.
By the time everything was done, it was already dark.
After leaving security, they drove back to the hotel.
The hotel's dinner hours were past, so they had to order takeout.
It was already ten o'clock in the evening when he finished eating. Because there were still a lot of things waiting for him tomorrow, he washed up early and prepared for bed.
Just as he finished washing up and lay down on the bed, his cell phone on the bedside table rang.
He picked up his phone and looked at it, frowning.
Because it was another text message, and a threatening text message at that.
He knew that the fraudulent movie would eventually affect some people's interests, but he didn't expect to receive threatening text messages so soon.
The content of the text message was very simple, asking him to stop filming "The Unguarded" immediately, otherwise he would have to bear the cost of the filming.
The cost was not disclosed, but Lin-Guo knew it would not be simple.
Above this text message was another threatening text message, which was sent when he was still in the country.
He did not take it lightly, so he applied for the support of the local police in Country T, and the filming location was changed to a small park around the scenic spot that had been closed off a few years ago.
What's more, he re-planned the shooting, shortening the original one and a half months to more than half a month.
Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape. The other party was still chasing him relentlessly and continued to threaten him not to make the counter-fraud movie.
Looking at the threatening message, he sent it to the police WeChat account he added when calling the police.
He had no fear, nor did he think of backing down.
For him, filming a movie is far more important than all these, so he ignored it the first time and will choose to ignore it the same way the second time.
He has his persistence.
Besides, this is not the first time he has encountered such a threat. When he was shooting other movies before, there were also some shady villains ready to interfere.
What the other party did was much more excessive than this time, but it didn't shake him, right?
If anything, it's just a little earlier this time.
