"What did you say?" Fu Shiyi turned his head.
Luo Jiaming blinked. "I'm saying, when 'Changfeng' is being promoted, I'll arrange for you and Mu Weiwei to be paired up as a couple. A handsome man and a beautiful woman like you would definitely cause a sensation."
"No!" Fu Shiyi resolutely objected.
His brother and Mu Weiwei were dating secretly, while he and she were constantly promoting themselves as a couple, showing off their love all over the world.
His brother would probably skin him alive, tear him to pieces, and scatter his bones to ashes.
"You helped her out back then, insisted on signing her to the company, and even had Qiao Lin mentor her. Wasn't it all just to seduce her?" Luo Jiaming asked.
They went to great lengths to get people signed up for the company.
Last night he even sacrificed himself to protect her, but now he refuses to create a CP (couple pairing) with her. What exactly is he trying to do?
"In short, I said no and that's final!" Fu Shiyi rejected Luo Jiaming's proposal without the slightest hesitation.
"Why not? There has to be a reason, right?" Luo Jiaming pressed.
He could tell that he had been intentionally protecting Mu Weiwei, but it was strange that he hadn't made a move, which was completely out of character for a womanizer.
After pondering for a while, Fu Shiyi said, "She is sacred and inviolable!"
Please, he signed the contract to give his brother a quid pro quo arrangement, not for himself.
"..."
Luo Jiaming looked at him as if he were mentally challenged.
"Anyway, I can't have any scandals with her," Fu Shiyi said.
“But if our company were to promote the drama ‘Changfeng,’ the focus would definitely be on the two of you. You’re not going to pair you up with Li Xin’er, she already has a fiancé, okay?” Luo Jiaming said.
Since we're going to promote anyway, of course we shouldn't let the benefits go to outsiders. Why not promote our own company's artists first? Would we let Li Xin'er benefit from this?
Fu Shiyi was racking his brains trying to figure out how to explain when his assistant reminded him.
"Third Young Master, the opening ceremony is about to begin."
Fu Shiyi put on his coat and went straight out the door to the venue for the opening ceremony.
The main cast and crew members and media reporters were all present, but he and the female lead, Li Xin'er, arrived late.
Director Yi An led the group to take incense, light it, and bow in all four directions (east, west, south, north) before offering incense in turn.
Then, the host introduced the main creative team of the TV series "Changfeng", and the director and planner said a few words.
The only actors who spoke were Fu Shiyi, who played the male lead, and Li Xin'er, who played the female lead. Gu Weiwei, a newcomer, only needed to stand on the side, smile, and occasionally chime in with a word or two.
After a brief media interview, director Yi An unveiled the red cloth covering the camera.
The film "Changfeng" has officially started filming.
After the opening ceremony, the actors had to start getting their makeup and styling done, preparing to film their first scene.
Director Yi An always requires the actors to nail the first scene of a film in one take, which is also for good luck.
Gu Weiwei and Fu Shiyi were both dressed as men, so their makeup was done relatively quickly. Once they were done, they waited idly for Li Xin'er, the female lead.
The assistant director came to the dressing room with the script. "Gu Changfeng, Tang Shaoqi, this is your first scene. Get in position quickly."
Li Xin'er, who was halfway through her makeup, couldn't believe it. She lifted her skirt and went outside, and sure enough, she saw the director arranging to film a scene of Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng's first meeting in Ningcheng.
Li Xin'er's agent looked rather grim, but still forced a smile and asked.
"Director Li, isn't this scene supposed to be filmed with the male and female leads?"
The first scene is now filming Tang Shaoqi. Who is the female lead?
The executive director smiled and said.
"We're not so particular here. Every extra hour the crew is delayed costs a lot of money. Whoever's costume and makeup are done first, we'll shoot their scenes first."
To put it bluntly, Director Yi didn't have much faith in Li Xin'er's acting skills and didn't want her to ruin the first scene of filming.
