As a director, Wang Zhang has his own leadership model. Under his leadership, the crew quickly got the filming on track.
In addition to the friendship between the three male protagonists, the love line of the movie "Time Lobbyist" naturally revolves around the male and female protagonists.
The heroine Fang Yitian, played by Chang Shiran, is a transfer student. For the first mock exam at the beginning of the school year, she was arranged by the Academic Affairs Office to sit in the classroom with the lowest grades.
As luck would have it, she sat behind the male protagonist Chengyu, and that was how the two of them interacted for the first time in their lives.
Fang Yitian is pretty and well-behaved, and her voice is soft and sweet, and almost every word she says touches Cheng Yu's heart.
Cheng Yu doesn't have a good reputation in school. He is a loner and wild person, and a bad student who is willing to risk his life in a fight. But no one knows that Fang Yitian just likes this "crazy" boy.
On the surface, they are a bad boy and a good girl who have nothing to do with each other; behind the scenes, they hold hands tightly and kiss each other on the forehead.
But in youth, there are always some unexpected changes that come unexpectedly——
Cheng Yu had caused too much trouble outside of school for Brother Yang. One day, his enemies came and threatened the elderly couple who adopted Cheng Yu.
Chengyu's grandfather was so angry that he suffered a heart attack and died on the spot. His frightened grandmother also passed away soon after... The death of the two elders dealt a fatal blow to the male protagonist Chengyu.
Some growing up happens overnight.
For the first time, the boy's world felt completely collapsed. He took a long knife and thought of taking revenge in the most extreme way, but was stopped by Fang Yitian and others who arrived.
In the quiet night, the girl stood on tiptoe, gently covered the boy's eyes that were filled with hatred and despair, and whispered softly.
"Ayu, you said you would marry me after I graduated from college?"
"I'll tell you the answer now. I'm waiting for you."
Because of this promise, Chengyu dropped his sword and was led out of hell by the hand of the girl he loved most.
…
In addition to the roles of the male and female protagonists, the role of the second male lead Fang Huai is equally exciting.
Under the deadly oppression from Fang's mother day after day, Fang Huai finally collapsed completely, and the most intense quarrel in history broke out between mother and son.
In front of him, Fang's mother cut her wrists with scissors. Faced with the dripping blood, Fang Huai went from being shocked to smiling bitterly, and finally to being indifferent.
Fang's mother naturally did not die, and Fang Huai finally knelt down in front of the hospital bed and begged for forgiveness with a numb heart after being persuaded by his neighbors. But there is always an unhealed scar in his heart.
On the day of the college entrance examination, he went out amid Fang's mother's eager expectations, and then disappeared without a trace.
He gave up the exam and chose to abandon his family.
After hearing the news, the protagonists searched everywhere for Fang Huai. The second female lead who had always admired Fang Huai was deceived and abducted by a drunk gangster on the way. An accident occurred...
Tragedies arranged by fate followed one after another.
Xiang Sui'an, played by Ji Li, acts as the 'persuader of fate' over and over again in countless reincarnations.
He would let the male lead go home at the right time and stop the enemy who would bring bad luck to the two elders; he would persuade Fang Huai to go out on that day and stay away from the quarrel that was destined to bring tragedy; he would find a way to protect the second female lead and avoid the path where accidents might occur...
He was trying hard to change everything.
But in the end, there will always be unexpected accidents that bring them back to their original ending.
The second male lead disappeared in the vast crowd, the second female lead was taken away from the town by her parents after being severely traumatized, and even the male and female protagonists were just like the beginning of the script.
The girl who once pulled Chengyu out of hell and said she would marry him eventually chose to marry someone else. In less than half a year, she sent the boy she loved most in her life back to hell with her own tragic death.
Just like Xiang Sui'an's last words in the script -
"I am like a lobbyist who is free from time, trying to fulfill each and every one of them in reincarnation again and again."
From beginning to end, Xiang Sui'an was the one who lived the clearest and most tormented life.
It is difficult for a wise man to save himself. He can convince others to pick up and put down, but he cannot convince himself.
…
The later the movie progresses, the more details there are that make people feel "regrettable".
However, outside the play, Feng Cheng and Wei Lai made rapid progress under the invisible "spur" of Ji Li's acting skills, and they performed very well in several major scenes, which made Wang Zhang so happy that he praised the young actors in the group on his circle of friends every day.
One month passed very quickly during the filming.
As the third male lead, Ji Li had fewer roles than the other leading actors. He completed the filming in Shuoyang Town and returned to Hai City first.
The film has not been completed yet, and Ji Li still has a few final scenes, which have been scheduled by the crew for half a month later.
"The Young Master" is tentatively scheduled to be broadcast in January next year, which means there is only one and a half months left.
The TV series is currently undergoing intensive and orderly post-production work. Although most of the time the sound is recorded live on the spot, some individual scenes still require some post-production dubbing.
The crew was pushing her hard, so Yu Fuya had to find time to arrange the dubbing work during the half-month break in filming.
Ji Li had been involved in post-dubbing for many film and television dramas before and was very familiar with this job. He spent four days in the recording studio and completed the dry audio for the TV series.
On the way back, Ji Li took the initiative to ask about the next work, "Sister Yu, does the company have any new film and television projects or scripts?"
Wang Zhang's film is about to be completed, and he selfishly doesn't want to leave the schedule empty.
Yu Fuya, who was sitting in the front row, turned sideways and answered seriously, "I looked around for you, and the film crews that approached us are all looking for small supporting roles. The company's current investment resources are biased towards TV dramas, which are not suitable for you."
The two of them once discussed it seriously - Ji Li wanted to develop into the big screen.
However, the film industry is more difficult to enter than the television industry.
Although Ji Li has starred in three dramas in a row, he is still an actor with no works released.
It is actually not that easy to get film capital to come to you.
"Don't worry, take a good rest after the filming of this movie is finished. There will be more crews starting filming after the New Year, and I will definitely find a good script for you."
Yu Fuya is ambitious.
Ji Li has already played a villain in a TV series and the third male lead in a movie. For his next film and television work, he cannot go back to being an unknown minor supporting role.
Other new actors can hone their acting skills by playing supporting roles in movies, but the young man’s acting skills are there, and he must move up in terms of role status.
It is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality.
Ji Li understood her considerations and nodded, "Well, I'm not in a hurry."
Anyway, with the support of Chaoying Culture and Yu Fuya as his agent, his future development path is much broader than that of actors of the same age.
The car stopped in front of the company. Ji Li still had two sets of daily promotional photos to take today.
A group of people got off the car.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in plain clothes rushed over and grabbed Ji Li's arm, "Xiao Li, I finally waited for you!"
Faced with the sudden physical contact, Ji Li's face changed instantly.
Yu Fuya and Baozi reacted quickly, grabbing the man from the left and right to pull him away.
"Who are you?"
"Who allowed you to touch Brother Ji!"
The middle-aged woman broke free from their hold and shouted unwillingly, "I still need to ask you. Who are you? I'm here to look for my nephew. Is it your business?"
She stood up straight and casually brushed aside her messy hair, revealing her thin, haggard face.
When Ji Li saw this unfamiliar face, the memories of the original owner in his mind were immediately unlocked. He frowned slightly, but could not call out that name.
The middle-aged woman's name was Xie Kefang, and she was the original owner's aunt.
At the beginning, it was she who "kidnapped" the original owner, who had just graduated from college, to Dream Media for the sake of her own son's tuition, signed a completely unequal contract for him, and took the opportunity to advance his signing fee and training salary.
After Ji Li replaced the original owner, he simply forgot about the other party's original family. As for the 'contract salary' that was taken away, he regarded it as the child support that the original owner paid back to their family.
In his opinion, it is better not to recognize such relatives.
But unexpectedly, more than four months later, Xie Kefang actually came to me on her own initiative.
Seeing that Ji Li didn't respond for a long time, Xie Kefang took two steps forward and said, "I didn't recognize the wrong person, did I? Xiao Li, how have you been recently? Your aunt just heard that you changed companies..."
As he said this, he showed a hypocritical smile and tried to get closer to her.
Baozi was quick to block Ji Li and said, "If you have something to say, please talk to him nicely. Don't get so close to him!"
Brother Ji's expression was not right, it seemed that he did not like this woman. As an assistant, he naturally had to be careful and not let this woman get too far.
Xie Kefang was stopped by Baozi. She rolled her eyes and played the family card in a hypocritical tone.
"Xiao Li, it's your aunt. How have you been these past few months? Your uncle and I miss you so much at home, and we're afraid that you've been wronged at work."
"It's been so long, why don't you call me back?"
Ji Li didn't fall into her trap at all, "Stop pretending, you know better than me how I got into the entertainment industry."
Xie Kefang glanced at Ji Li's indifferent expression and immediately became unhappy. Her tone immediately became sarcastic and harsh.
"Hey, Ji Li, what do you mean by that?"
"If I hadn't brought you into the entertainment company, would you have achieved this day? Do you think you are worthy of becoming a phoenix now that you have flown to a tree?"
"I never thought that after raising you for so many years, I would end up raising a white-eyed wolf!"
Xie Kefang shouted in a sharp and loud voice, which immediately attracted the attention of passers-by nearby - there must be something fishy going on under the Chaoying headquarters.
Yu Fuya turned sideways and quickly pulled up the hood of Ji Li's sweatshirt, covering most of the young man's face like a protective child.
She glared at Xie Kefang, who looked calculating, and said, "Baozi, take your brother Ji in first. I will take care of this woman."
Before Yu Fuya took over Ji Li, he conducted a detailed investigation of his family background. In just a short while, she had already realized Xie Kefang's true intention -
Is it simply because he saw that Ji Li had established himself a little in the entertainment industry that he wanted to come back and build connections?
Pooh! What kind of aunt is this?
Do you still want to use young people as money bags? No way!
Baozi quickly swiped the company access card and said, "Brother Ji, let's go."
"Sister Yu, thank you for your help." Ji Li didn't want to have too much involvement with a 'relative' like Xie Kefang, so he walked quickly into the company.
Seeing that Ji Li ignored her the whole time, Xie Kefang felt anxious and angry. Seeing that the glass door was about to close, she took a quick step forward.
The next second, she was pulled back by Yu Fuya, "What are you doing? Can you just walk into this company casually?"
"What am I even trying to ask you?! Who are you? I'm meeting my nephew, why would it be your business?"
Xie Kefang was filled with rage, looking unreasonable and cunning.
She had waited for two or three hours in the cold wind, only to end up with this situation. She was worried that she had no place to vent her anger!
Xie Kefang just couldn't believe that a woman as elegantly dressed as Yu Fuya could be violent with her in public. If the other party dares to bump into her at this critical moment, she will make sure he is in trouble!
Yu Fuya saw through her thoughts, sneered, and took out his cell phone, "Don't show off in front of me. If you are so capable, why don't we go to the police station and confront each other?"
Xie Kefang was stunned, obviously not expecting things to go this way. "I, I haven't done anything illegal, why should I go to the police station?"
She can use violence, but she can't chew on words.
"Nothing illegal? You signed the contract between Ji Li and Dream Media on his behalf, right? I heard that you also took away a large sum of signing bonuses?"
Yu Fuya took a step forward, and the sound of her high heels hit Xie Kefang's heart. "Let me tell you, you were cheating a third party of their property, which constitutes the crime of contract fraud."
"Ji Li is generous and doesn't argue with your aunt, but I'm not a good-tempered person! If you dare to come to the company to cause trouble again, as his agent, I will be the first one to not let you go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he dialed the phone in his hand.
Drop-drop-drop-drop
Xie Kefang was filled with anxiety when she heard the connection tone on the loudspeaker. She swallowed nervously and said, "I won't talk to you anymore!"
At the beginning, Xie Kefang signed a maximum-term contract for the young man without his consent and also took a large sum of money... Now that she felt guilty, she naturally backed down.
She said this, turned around and left in a hurry.
The call was finally answered. "Hello, Fuya? I just finished a regular meeting."
It was Tao Mingyang's voice.
The contract issue happened so long ago that even if we report it to the police, it will be difficult to conclude due to lack of evidence.
Yu Fuya was just trying to scare Xie Kefang by saying things like going to the police station.
"Does the company no longer need security personnel now that there is a gated entrance? Artists can be stopped by strangers downstairs whenever they go back to the company. Can't we at Chaoying even guarantee the safety of our artists?"
Yu Fuya turned and walked into the elevator, her tone serious.
If she and Baozi hadn't been present today, Ji Li wouldn't know how this weird aunt would have made things difficult for him!
…
Xie Kefang saw Yu Fuya enter the company from a distance, and then she suddenly relaxed. She spat on the ground and cursed something viciously.
Suddenly, the cell phone in her pocket rang.
Xie Kefang fumbled for her cell phone. She looked at the notes on the screen and her vicious expression instantly turned into joy.
"Xiao Lai, why did you think of calling mom?"
The person on the other end of the phone was her only son, Ji Youlai, who just started his freshman year.
"When can you get the 100,000 I asked you to prepare for me? I finally managed to get an investment quota, it's a sure win, don't ruin my business!"
"No, no!" Xie Kefang said with a smile in the cold wind, "You are so promising in your freshman year. Mom will find a way to get money for you!"
Before the sound faded, her eyes turned to the company logo of 'Chaoying Culture' again.
"I'm telling you, that little bastard Ji Li is now a big star, he must be rich!"
"Ji Li?" Ji Youlai on the other end of the phone obviously didn't believe it. "How can a wooden idiot like him become a star? Are you kidding me?"
He usually doesn't chase stars like little girls, and he doesn't care about this nominal cousin. When he first heard the news, he thought Xie Kefang was talking nonsense.
"I'm not kidding you. Didn't mom trick him into working for an entertainment company to raise money for your tuition? This bastard is so lucky that he's actually become a star now!"
The daughter of the next-door neighbor came back from vacation and casually mentioned this matter to Xie Kefang. The latter was shocked when he heard it, and immediately came over to block the man following the news.
Although she had just been rejected, Xie Kefang was still determined to win.
How could the dull personality of the young man, who had lived for more than 20 years, undergo such a big change in just a few months? She doesn't believe it.
When Xie Kefang thought of Ji Li, greed appeared in her eyes. "Xiao Lai, don't worry. Your mother can still control him!"
"The money he makes now is our mother's money! Don't even mention 100,000! Even if it's 200,000! Mom can dig it out of him and give it to you!"
I never expected that an unintentional action would actually plant a money tree.
The stars on TV are all glamorous. As long as Ji Li stays in the entertainment industry, are they still worried that they and their son will have no money to spend in the future?
Ji Youlai on the other end of the phone obviously had the same idea as her, and urged her, "Okay, you better hurry up, I'm short of money recently."
Xie Kefang made repeated assurances before hanging up the phone.
…
Three hours later, Ji Li finished taking the daily promotional photos.
Yu Fuya found a nearby restaurant with good reviews and took him and Baozi to a hearty meal. "Eat more, everyone. You're all so skinny."
After working together for a few months, she almost raised them as her sons.
Baozi gnawed on the chicken leg with a grunt, "Sister Yu, you didn't say that before. You even kept asking Brother Ji to eat less."
Yu Fuya rudely hit him on the forehead and said, "Eat it when I tell you to. Can't even meat stop you from eating?"
Baozi chuckled twice, glanced at Ji Li's empty cup of water, and immediately took the initiative to refill it for him.
"Brother Ji, why do you only drink water and not eat much? Are you in a bad mood?" After saying that, Baozi looked at Yu Fuya for help.
The latter shrugged imperceptibly.
Ji Li took the cup. He recalled what happened before work, and his brows tightened slightly. "Is that woman gone?"
When he thought of what Xie Kefang had done to the original owner, he really couldn't call her "aunt".
The original owner was abandoned by his biological mother since childhood and didn't know who his biological father was. His uncle was honest and kind and was willing to raise him. But at the same time, my aunt is a snob who is not easy to mess with -
The beginning of every school year was the most difficult time for the original owner.
Because of the tuition fee issue, Xie Kefang would beat and scold him at every turn. If the uncle protects him, he will also be criticized. In serious cases, it will cause a big quarrel between the couple.
Later, when he went to high school and college, the original owner began to receive scholarships and part-time wages. After paying his own tuition, all the rest of the money was taken away by Xie Kefang and given to his own son Ji Youlai.
At the table, Ji Youlai ate whatever he wanted. It turned out that if he dared to eat one more piece of fat, he would be hit hard with chopsticks...
All these things caused the original owner to suffer injustice and bullying.
Yu Fuya took a sip of water and said, "I scared her away. We will add more security guards downstairs in the next two days. If you see her, just chase her away. As for you going out to work, Baozi and I will follow you. It won't be easy for that woman to find trouble."
Baozi nodded hurriedly to assure himself.
He had just heard Yu Fuya mention Ji Li's experience. While he felt sorry for the young man, he was also very confused.
How could Brother Ji, such an outstanding person, have such an excellent relative like Xie Kefang? In order to pay for the expenses of his own son, he directly "sold" his nephew? How shameless.
Yu Fuya scooped another mouthful of soup for him and said, "Don't think about it. Eat more."
Ji Li nodded, temporarily suppressing the slight doubt in his heart.
He always felt that with Xie Kefang's stubborn and forceful personality, she would not give up the idea so easily.
Near the end, Yu Fuya suddenly received an important call. She gave the two of them some instructions, paid the bill and left.
Ji Li and Baozi ate for a while longer, until almost eight o'clock, when they slowly stopped.
"Baozi, I'm going to the bathroom. You call a car outside to wait for me."
"Okay, Ji-ge."
…
Three minutes later, Ji Li came out of the restaurant bathroom, but was stopped by someone.
"After waiting for so long, I finally caught you alone!"
Xie Kefang appeared out of nowhere and gave him a preemptive scolding.
"You bastard, you didn't even say hello when you saw me this afternoon. You just left like that? You think you're great just because you're a celebrity. Let me tell you, I'm your aunt! If you don't respect your elders like this, I'll find a TV station to expose you!"
Ji Li looked at the familiar face in front of him, his eyes suddenly turned cold, "You followed me?"
Xie Kefang's heart skipped a beat when she met his gaze.
In her impression, the young man had never had such eyes and coldness, he was like a completely different person.
But she quickly threw away this 'illusion', "What do you mean by stalking? That's so unpleasant to say. Come on, stop pretending in front of your aunt. Don't I know how good you are?"
"While your whatever agent is away, I have discussed some serious matters with you."
Xie Kefang carefully glanced toward the public area of the restaurant through the wooden fence. After confirming that Yu Fuya had not returned, she finally let go of the worry in her heart.
After the brief confrontation in the afternoon, she was somewhat wary and afraid of Yu Fuya.
Ji Li pressed his hat down, his tone was calm and even, "What's the matter?"
When Xie Kefang heard him continuing with her topic, her expression immediately became proud.
Look at him, he's still that stupid guy who lets her do his bidding.
"Your cousin is very promising. He met the boss of a listed company and invited him to invest in business!" Xie Kefang's tone couldn't help but rise when she mentioned her precious son.
What is a celebrity? In ancient times, they were considered the lowest class, and were actors looked down upon by everyone.
Her son Xiaolai is really amazing. He has the opportunity to become a boss just when he is in his freshman year!
When Ji Li heard her flawed statement, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, "Oh? He has a promising future, why don't you go find him instead of me?"
Xie Kefang clicked her tongue, obviously dissatisfied with his reaction.
She straightened her cotton coat that was red to the point of dirt, and said in a commanding tone, "Look, Xiaolai's company is in urgent need of money, so hurry up and bring some to us. When he makes money in the future, you can also benefit from it, right?"
“…”
Ji Li almost laughed out of anger at this, and deliberately asked, "So, how much do you want?"
Xie Kefang thought he had agreed, and her brows immediately lit up with joy.
"Two hundred thousand. No, wait..." She showed an even more greedy look and asked without thinking, "We want one million! You'd better give it to us now!"
