Once the lead actors for the male and female roles were decided, finding the other supporting actors became much faster.
A month and a half passed after the successful audition, and everything was ready. Ye Chu received notification of the start date for filming right after finishing a set of cover photos.
The location was the school where Li Kan and Cheng Jie studied, which shows how much Mr. Li and Mr. Zhang cared about this script.
Ye Chu told Chang Ji, and then told the driver to come to the apartment building at 7:00 a.m. the day after tomorrow. The driver said it was no problem.
When Li Kan finished the script, Zhang Wuyong announced the news of his new film on his long-dormant Weibo account. Now that the casting is complete and filming is about to begin, the official announcement is just around the corner.
The appearance of these two veteran figures together caused an uproar among netizens. Not to mention the official announcement of the casting for their new movie, which drew huge crowds of netizens to watch.
In less than fifteen minutes, Zhang Wuyong's latest Weibo post exploded. When the title "#Zhang and Li, two veterans, are collaborating again#" trended on Weibo, many netizens were already secretly watching Zhang Wuyong and Li Kan's updates. And today, with the two of them posting on Weibo at the same time to announce the casting, it goes without saying that they were keeping an eye on the situation.
Soon, the hashtag #ZhangLi'sNewFilm"Casting "Me and Her" quickly rose to the top of the trending topics. Clicking into the trending topics reveals the various celebrations that fans of different celebrities went on after seeing their idols' names appear on the Weibo post.
"Ahhh, my Fu Yu sister is really in there! I'm dead! Is my treasure girl going to become famous?!"
"The moment I saw Brother Chaoxu's name, I was so happy I almost exploded! Brother, you're amazing!"
"Sisters! I saw Chu Chu! My darling daughter has been so amazing lately! She's the leading lady!!! @Xiaoxiao_gets_up_early @ChuChu_my @Mr.Sen_his_little_baby"
"I'm here, I'm here! I was editing a video and got tagged, it's really my first time! I'm dead."
"My God, the male lead is Actor Gu! This is... a collaboration again, right?"
"I think the male lead, Yu, is fantastic. Thank you, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li! I promise I won't let you down!"
"Brother is awesome! I'm waiting patiently for the official photos [heart emoji], he'll definitely be incredibly handsome."
Am I the only one here to extol the fairytale romance between Mr. Li and his beloved?
"You're not alone upstairs! They're so sweet, it's a pity that five years ago... they were my favorite couple when I first got into the fandom! I still feel so bad about it."
"Can someone explain this to me? I'm a newbie to fandoms."
"Let me explain: Mr. Li's real name was Li Kan, and his wife was Cheng Jie (who passed away in a car accident five years ago). Both were top students in their youth. During high school, Li Kan successfully pursued Cheng Jie, and the two became a couple. (Mr. Li has stated on several public occasions that Cheng Jie was the love of his life.) This relationship lasted for over a decade. After graduating from university, they lived together. Cheng Jie became a physics professor at Tsinghua University, while Mr. Li entered the entertainment industry as a screenwriter. (The female protagonist in Mr. Li's famous work, 'She,' was based on his beloved Cheng Jie.) After achieving success at the age of twenty-eight, Mr. Li formally proposed to Cheng Jie, and they married. They were happily married for decades until Cheng Jie tragically passed away in a car accident five years ago, a loss that will forever remain in the hearts of many who loved them."
"After reading the science article, I suddenly felt really sad."
"You can search for 'Li Kan's confession' and you'll find many photos, reports, and screenshots from netizens of Li's Weibo posts showing affection from many years ago."
"They're back after the investigation. What an amazing love story."
"Didn't we say before that the new movie 'Me and Her' was written by Mr. Li based on his own story with his lover? After so many years, I have the opportunity to witness the love of this couple again."
“I asked my mother, and she said that when she was young, she dreamed of finding someone like Mr. Li, but she never expected to find my father. She also said that Mr. Li was the ideal partner for many of her female classmates back then.”
"Haha, looking at myself, I'm already old. Back when I envied their love, I was still a student, and now I'm a mother of two."
"Time flies! Just because they made me believe in love when I was young, I'm going to bring my whole family to see it when it's released!"
"It's a bit early to say this before it's even started filming, but I still want to say that I'll definitely go and support it when it does!"
Ye Chu looked at these comments on her phone, feeling a little happy. Of all the scripts she had read so far, "Me and Her" was arguably her favorite. Cheng Jie and Li Kan's love story was so beautiful it was almost unbelievable. Every time she flipped through the script, she would drift off into a daze, dreaming of the day her own love would come true.
In other words, "Me and Her" has the magic to make people believe in love.
On the day filming of "Me and Her" began, the city welcomed its first snowfall of winter. Everyone on set couldn't help but reach out to catch the tiny snowflakes, and the photographer captured this moment perfectly, which Zhang Wuyong then posted on Weibo.

In the picture, everyone in the crew is holding their hands to catch snowflakes at the start of filming, their faces beaming with delighted smiles.
As Zhang Wuyong said on Weibo, the first snow did indeed bring good luck, and everything went very smoothly on the day filming started.
As evening fell and work was done, Li Kan stood in the snow wearing a hat. He figured Cheng Jie must have seen him. Zhang Wuyong came over and patted him on the shoulder: "She's been watching you the whole time. We all know that. The thing she worries about most is leaving you alone."
"I know, I know..." This usually strong person cried like a child in this first snow, as if she wanted to cry out all the sadness that had accumulated over the past five years.
A gentle breeze blew away the snowflakes that were about to fall on him, so softly it was almost unbelievable.
Ye Chu and her group stood in the snow, watching the person crouching on the ground in anguish. Some in the crowd also cried, sobs rising and falling. Gu Yu stood beside her and said, "Old Li is a very strong person."
Ye Chu, her eyes red, turned to him with a smile: "It's good that he cried, he must have been very sad all along."
"Actually, the snow also reminds me of someone." Gu Yu said this to Ye Chu as if by some strange impulse.
Ye Chu was stunned: "What?"
"I was thinking of the person I love." His gaze was clear and gentle, falling softly on Ye Chu. Their eyes met, and Ye Chu was instantly drawn into the tenderness in his eyes.
The words "the person I like" popped into her mind, and she felt a slight pain in her heart, but for a moment she couldn't tell if the feeling was pain or not.
You must be very lucky to be liked by Gu Yu, right?
