Hu Yiming is quite easy to get along with in private, but he becomes very serious when he starts directing and is the kind of person who strives for perfection.
Yan Keyi watched them film this scene several times.
Although Qin Yiran has said that she has been retired from acting for several years and has not acted in a film for several years, she is, after all, a former Best Actress winner, and her acting skills are still there.
Actually, the actors who acted opposite her were all veteran actors with rich acting experience, but they still couldn't quite keep up with Qin Yiran's performance. However, Hu Yiming was a perfectionist, so they filmed several takes before getting it right.
Anyone tends to get increasingly nervous when doing something repeatedly, but Qin Yiran's performance was consistently excellent, so it's understandable that the actress would be even more nervous. That's why she was pulled aside by Hu Yiming for a private talk, and when she returned, she finally nailed it in one take.
In the first scene, Ning Yifeng's report is blocked, so he confronts the editor-in-chief, only to be ridiculed for his youthful arrogance and warned that all his efforts are no match for the current trend of prioritizing traffic, and that no one likes to read about social realities.
Unwilling to believe in superstition, Ning Yifeng insisted on going down this path and told her that someone would definitely pay attention to these things.
This is the starting point of the story, and also the starting point of the "battlefield".
"Okay! That's it for the morning. Teachers, have lunch and rest first, and we'll continue this afternoon."
As Hu Yiming's voice faded, the crew became lively.
"Xiao Yan, come here for a second."
Yan Keyi had wanted to ask Hu Yiming some questions, and she was worried that it might be a bother to go to him now that he was eating and resting. But since he had already called her, she wasn't worried anymore.
"Director Hu, you were looking for me."
Yan Keyi slowly walked up to Hu Yiming and asked.
"Xiao Yan, how was your experience watching all morning?"
Hu Yiming noticed that Yan Keyi was observing and learning from the sidelines while filming. However, he was busy and it wasn't convenient to call her at that time, so he could only ask her about it later.
"Hmm, it's a very profound subject. Reading the text is relatively simple, but actually performing it is really not easy. I'm a little worried about my performance this afternoon."
Hu Yiming called Yan Keyi over alone because he was worried about her performance.
The actor who played the editor-in-chief this morning, Lao Yu, is actually a veteran actor. Although he has always played various supporting roles, his acting skills are still up to par, otherwise they wouldn't have invited him to come and meet us.
However, when facing Qin Yiran, he was still overshadowed.
If she didn't perform well in one area, she would start to worry more and more about not performing well, which would make her more and more nervous. Hu Yiming was worried that Yan Keyi would also experience this, which is why he talked to Yan Keyi in advance.
"I was worried you'd be nervous, so I came to talk to you first."
Even those with formal training might not be able to withstand his pursuit of perfection. Hu Yiming was actually quite afraid that he would scold Yan Keyi until she cried. Just thinking about how he would make Yan Keyi cry and then Jiang Ning would come looking for him, and the thought of Jiang Ning's cold face, made Hu Yiming feel a little apprehensive.
"I wasn't actually that nervous, I was just afraid that I wouldn't be able to portray Liang Weiqing as I envisioned him."
Yan Keyi's answer was unexpected by Hu Yiming.
But Yan Keyi had the desire to learn, so Hu Yiming took the opportunity to teach her some techniques on how to get into character.
Yan Keyi was actually willing to listen, but halfway through, she was dragged away by Qin Yiran.
"Director Hu, I know you value talent and want to teach more, but even if you're not hungry, you have to take care of Xiao Yan too."
Without caring what Yan Keyi and Hu Yiming thought, Qin Yiran grabbed them and ran away.
As a new actress, Yan Keyi naturally doesn't have her own dressing room, but because of Qin Yiran, she can go with her.
Although she's not as resistant to interacting with others as she was at the beginning, she still doesn't really like crowded places. Being here is definitely better.
"Teacher Qin..."
"Stop, eat first. We can talk after you finish eating."
Having already had lunch with Qin Yiran, Yan Keyi wanted to take this opportunity to learn more from her. Qin Yiran had been in excellent form all morning, which really impressed Yan Keyi.
Perhaps sensing what Yan Keyi wanted to ask, Qin Yiran interrupted her before she could finish speaking.
After hearing this, Yan Keyi decided to eat lunch first.
[Yiyi, how was your morning? Are you settling in well on set? Did you eat your meals properly?]
Just as Yan Keyi was eating, news from Jiang Ning arrived first.
Upon seeing Jiang Ning's message, Yan Keyi's face visibly lit up with joy.
While Yan Keyi wasn't paying attention, Qin Yiran secretly took a picture of this scene.
"Sister Qin, you?"
Qin Yiran's assistant was puzzled when she saw this and was about to ask a question when Qin Yiran interrupted her.
After being interrupted, Qin Yiran sent the photo she had just taken to Jiang Ning.
Q: Look at your little girl, she's quite comfortable with me, but she's happiest when she's with you.
[Ning: Thanks, I'll keep the photos to myself.]
When Jiang Ning received Qin Yiran's photo, a smile appeared on her face. Yan Keyi wasn't as reserved in front of her as she was with others, and wasn't she the same way?
Jiang Ning only becomes unlike herself in front of Yan Keyi.
Yan Keyi knew nothing about the matter between Qin Yiran and Jiang Ning; she was currently enthusiastically sharing the happy things that happened to her on set.
As for why Qin Yiran was so kind to her? Yan Keyi simply assumed it was because Qin Yiran was a nice person that she took good care of her. Little did she know, Jiang Ning and Qin Yiran had been friends for many years. Qin Yiran had already recognized her during the photoshoot.
However, after Jiang Ning came out and broke up with her family, she lost contact with her old friends. The only one who kept in touch with her was Yang Xingsui.
After that day, Qin Yiran inquired with Yang Xingsui and learned about Jiang Ning's situation.
Before Qin Yiran could even approach Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning had already reached out to her, hoping she could take good care of Yan Keyi on set. That's why Qin Yiran started to look after Yan Keyi.
However, Jiang Ning told her not to tell Yan Keyi about these things, so as long as Yan Keyi didn't find out herself, she naturally wouldn't bring it up on her own.
However, seeing how they interact, one can't help but gossip about Jiang Ning and Yang Xingsui.
