Xu Yazi restrained her smile and gently scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, especially don't say such things in front of Luo Fei."
Seeing that her sister was a little angry, Xu Ya Ting didn't dare to say anything even though she was a carefree person.
"Okay, okay, just treat it as something I said nonsense. I will never mention it again. I definitely won't mention it again." Xu Ya Ting quickly begged for mercy, and Xu Yazi's expression looked better.
Over the years, she has taken good care of Yan Luofei for the sake of her dead daughter. Many people thought that she wanted to adopt Yan Luofei as her goddaughter. Even her parents asked about it, fearing that Yan Luofei would not be able to bear the loss of her daughter and then suddenly learn the sad news of her daughter's death a few years later. They hoped that she could find someone to rely on.
Only her husband, son and father-in-law understood that even though Yan Luofei and her daughter Xiaobei had been best friends in the orphanage, it was impossible for her to transfer her guilt and longing for her daughter to Yan Luofei.
Her daughter was a one-of-a-kind treasure who could never be replaced by anyone.
Over the years, she treated Yan Luofei as a junior, sent her to school, provided her with financial support and gave her a good life, but she always placed her in the apartment under her own name. The Yan family's old house and the Xu family never gave Yan Luofei a fixed room. Every time Yan Luofei visited, she stayed in a different guest room.
She did all this to tell Yan Luofei, and everyone else, her attitude. She could love Yan Luofei and raise Yan Luofei, but there was only one thing: Yan Luofei's name would never be registered in the Yan family's household registration, and Yan Luofei could never replace her biological daughter.
If she really put her thoughts for her daughter on Yan Luofei, that would be truly selfish. Not only would she deceive herself, but she would also be sorry for her daughter and Yan Luofei, who was treated as a substitute.
But Xu Ya Ting's words reminded Xu Yazi of her little daughter who was accidentally lost at birth. Xu Yazi stroked the jade pendant on her chest, which was the only thing left by Xiao Bei.
Unknowingly, more than 20 years have passed. Xiaobei should have passed away. I hope she can be happy in this life and not meet such a confused mother again.
Yan Shule gave eight million to Liu Kangle and asked Xue Yang to assist him and never cared about it again, but Xue Yang and Liu Kangle were always very diligent in reporting their movements to her.
The director that was agreed upon was Wang Li, a new director in the circle. He was not very famous, but he had several micro-film works that received good responses. He was very good at creating atmosphere and controlling details. Liu Kangle felt that he was very suitable for shooting suspense and horror dramas, and he took a liking to him early on. After reading the script, he was also very interested and helped contact other staff including photographers and makeup artists. However, he did not ask for any compensation, but asked for a 10% technical investment.
Yan Shule and Liu Kangle each gave him 5% and signed a new contract. Yan Shule only signed his name and was not present. Wang Li felt that the name was a little familiar, thinking that there were many people with the same name, and he might have met someone with the same name before, so he didn't think much about it.
This was the duo's first TV series in the true sense. Although they decided to invite new actors in order to save costs, they could not just settle for nothing. The two went to various universities to recruit, and it took them two months to finally put together the starring team.
But just two days before the filming was to start, the leading male actor suddenly signed a contract with an agency, compensated the crew 50,000 yuan according to the contract, and went to play the fifth male lead in what was said to be a big-budget TV series.
His action made everyone in the crew panic. If they had the money to pay the penalty, several people might have run away.
But even so, the play cannot be filmed without the right leading male role.
The crew was in a state of panic, and at this time Xue Yang stammered and mentioned a person.
"Li Xun? Who is this?" Wang Li frowned and took out his mobile phone to search. Liu Kangle and Wen Ze came over curiously.
"Eh? He's also an idol in a boy band?"
The three people looked at Xue Yang in surprise, suspicion written all over their faces.
Xue Yang scratched his head anxiously, "Believe me, he can really do it!" In fact, he had wanted to say it before, but Wang Li was a very opinionated and even somewhat arrogant person. Xue Yang had a soft personality and was a little scared of such a person, so he never dared to speak. Now that the male lead of the crew had run away, he finally plucked up the courage to seize the opportunity to say it.
"How about this, ask him to come for an audition tomorrow and we'll see." Wang Li was surprisingly easy to talk to Xue Yang.
Anyway, they don’t have any more choices at this time, so they might as well give it a try.
Xue Yang told Yan Shule about this.
"I'm an outsider in these areas. It's fine as long as the director and screenwriter think it's appropriate." Yan Shule was very happy to delegate power in areas he didn't understand. She knows very well that if you don't understand something, you should stay out of it and let the professionals do it.
Xue Yang immediately called Li Xun excitedly and told him the situation.
Yan Shule actually has some impression of Li Xun, of course, this impression is from his original memory.
The original incarnation had filmed a play before, in which Li Xun played a minor role.
This is how Xue Yang got to know Li Xun, and he often mentioned this person in front of her during that period.
Speaking of Li Xun, he is also a very miserable person. He comes from a good family, has a gentle personality, is good-looking, tall, and is also a top student. It is said that he was admitted to university at the age of sixteen and graduated at the age of twenty.
The year he graduated from college, he wanted to rebel for once and pursue his dream of becoming an actor. However, due to his inexperience, he was deceived by a small agency and signed a ten-year contract to join a boy band.
He just wanted to act, but he wasn't a professional actor, and he couldn't sing or dance. The quality of the other members in the boy band was also mixed, and they weren't united. They were always causing trouble, and he became popular for a while, but soon faded into obscurity.
After that, he basically lived in a retirement state in the company. He wanted to terminate the contract but the penalty was too high. He didn't want to ask his family for money and increase the burden on his parents, so he had to waste time in the company and had to rely on his previous major to do part-time work to support himself.
It was not until his contract expired at the beginning of this year and he officially terminated his contract with the company that he was finally free.
So he continued to work part-time to support himself, and at the same time played minor roles in various film crews. He still refused to give up his dream of acting, but he never got a good opportunity.
The original body was unhappy at the time because he lost money in stock trading and didn't pay much attention to it. But Xue Yang kept praising him and said it was a pity several times.
Hopefully this time it will be a happy one, Li Xun will get the leading male role, the crew will get good actors, and she will be able to earn some money.
Yan Shule thought about it and found Li Xun's photo on the computer, looking at it carefully. It was not as clear through the photo as when he was in person, but Yan Shule still saw that there was indeed a flash of red light on his body.
Well, she felt that she could rest assured.
The next morning before eleven o'clock, Yan Shule received a call from Xue Yang, who said excitedly that Li Xun had passed the audition, had agreed to play the leading male role, and was signing the contract.
Yan Shule thought about the red light he saw in the photo yesterday and smiled with satisfaction.
"By the way, we have also set up an official Weibo account, and plan to post some behind-the-scenes footage from time to time to attract some fans. You can also join in the fun and repost it." Xue Yang reminded on the other end of the phone.
Yan Shule thought about the time when he opened his Weibo and wanted to change his password after terminating his contract with the company, but his new phone was almost stuck with autism. He asked Xue Yang speechlessly, "Do you think if I forward the message, will it attract fans or attract negative comments for the crew?"
Xue Yang was speechless for a moment, and then he said awkwardly after a while, "Since you have changed your number, why don't you register a new account?"
Yan Shule thinks it’s okay. The content of some bloggers is quite interesting and it’s worth visiting them occasionally.
So she registered a new Weibo account with her new number, and did not use her real name. After thinking about it, she chose a nickname called "Little God of Wealth Makes Money Like Water". She also followed the official Weibo account of the crew and reposted the Weibo.
The crew finally entered the shooting stage. Every day, Xue Yang and Liu Kangle would report on the progress of the shooting. Occasionally, Xue Yang would use his mobile phone to take some on-site footage for Yan Shule to see, and upload some interesting content to Weibo. As an investor, Yan Shule was very dedicated and forwarded them one by one using his account with five fans. One of the five fans was an official Weibo account, and the remaining four were small accounts, which were probably given by the platform.
Of course, she will also watch all the videos carefully.
Although Yan Shule is not an expert, as a audience she can tell whether the performance is good or not. No wonder Wang Li and Liu Kangle took so long to select the actors, they are really good. Although the faces are unfamiliar, Yan Shule can feel their emotions and acting skills.
At the same time, Yan Luofei announced that she had finished filming and was about to join a new crew, which was the big-budget costume drama that Zhifei had hyped for a long time.
Yan Shule didn't have time to pay attention to those things. She was looking at the more than 20 million yuan she had earned from stock trading in her account. Together with the 13 million yuan in capital, she now had more than 30 million yuan. She allocated another 12 million yuan to the crew to improve the environment and food so that they could make a better show.
Yan Shule had deep feelings watching the videos sent by Xue Yang these days. She grew up in an orphanage, and her goal since childhood was to make more money so as not to be poor, hungry or bullied. She had never thought about such unreal things as dreams. The photos Xue Yang sent her these days, showing the seriousness and perseverance of Liu Kangle and Wang Li, touched her. This was the first time that she did not use her own abilities, but seemed to see light in others.
Yan Luofei also knew that Xue Yang had left Jingxin Garden to work as Liu Kangle's assistant (actually, he was too busy to go home and had to live on the set). She was alone in the room, thinking for a while, and smiled to herself, "It seems that there are still some people who know how to stay away from disaster stars like Yan Shule. Since you know how to do this, I will let you go."
Yan Luofei called her assistant and asked her to check the crew of "Innocence", "If possible, let's invest a little bit, since there's no point in just leaving the spare money there anyway."
When the time comes, I will increase the salary of the assistant director and let Yan Shule see that the person who betrayed her is living better and better. I wonder how she will feel. Will she want to leave in disgrace?
Yan Luofei has no other way to deal with Yan Shule now, he can only try to attack her from all aspects, preferably to make her deserted by everyone and unable to recover.
