Ji Yu and Lan Shu'er were unaware that Tong Su had infiltrated the film crew.
At this moment, Ji Yu, accompanied by Lan Shu'er, arrived in front of Director Zhang with a smile.
"Director Zhang, you've had a long day, haven't you gone home to rest yet? If your wife sees this, she'll be heartbroken!"
Director Zhang smiled faintly: "The great movie star still remembers to care about me, you're too kind."
"Director Zhang, what are you saying! What am I, a movie star, compared to you? It is you who values me, and I am truly flattered!"
Director Zhang immediately understood Ji Yu's flattery.
Ji Yu is a scheming and ambitious man who is also ruthless to himself, things that Director Zhang disapproves of.
If we were to strictly follow Director Zhang's standards, he would be very reluctant to let Ji Yu play the male lead. However, in today's film market, popularity reigns supreme, and it must be admitted that among all the popular stars, Ji Yu is indeed the one with the best acting skills.
In addition, the investors valued Ji Yu's large fan base and insisted that he be chosen as the male lead, which left Director Zhang with no choice but to cast him.
What I didn't expect was that Ji Yu's joining the crew not only didn't stop him from bringing his rumored mistress along!
Director Zhang was increasingly dissatisfied with Ji Yu. If it weren't for the fact that filming had already begun and the investors would definitely be unhappy if the male lead were replaced, he would have wanted to choose a new male lead long ago.
Director Zhang exchanged a few perfunctory pleasantries with Ji Yu, while Lan Shu'er stood obediently to the side as a background figure. Finally, noticing Director Zhang's growing impatience, Ji Yu revealed his true purpose.
He gestured for Lan Shu'er to step forward, smiled, and said, "Director Zhang, as you know, Lan Shu'er is my fiancée's good friend. She's a newcomer, and my Tongsu is worried about her, so she asked me to take good care of her. I thought it was rare for my Tongsu to make a request of me, so I'm shamelessly asking you for a favor so I can fulfill my fiancée's request..."
Director Zhang raised an eyebrow in surprise: "You and your fiancée have such a good relationship?"
Ji Yu nodded repeatedly, "That's right! We started dating in college and got engaged right after graduation. I've wanted to get married for a long time, but Tongsu's family is worried about her young age and wants us to wait a few more years. Our relationship is great, and Director Zhang must come to our wedding!"
Lan Shu'er stood obediently to the side and smiled gently, "Yes, Tong Su is a very good girl. I met her in high school and we were best friends! Later, when I entered the entertainment industry, she always asked Ji Yu to take care of me. I really don't know how to thank her!"
Director Zhang and his wife are very loving. Having seen so many superficial couples in the industry, it's rare to see a male star who takes his fiancée's words to heart. He couldn't help but smile, and his goodwill towards Ji Yu and Lan Shuer increased greatly.
"Alright, I understand. You guys go back now. Ji Yu, as an elder, I also want to say a few words to you. You've seen too much of the glitz and glamour in this industry. Don't let it cloud your judgment and cause you to do something that would betray your wife! We men should cherish our wives, shouldn't we?"
Ji Yu nodded repeatedly in agreement, and said with deep affection, "Of course, I would never do anything to betray my fiancée."
"Alright, I'll consider what you said." Director Zhang nodded with satisfaction and waved for them to leave.
However, after walking a distance, Ji Yu and Lan Shu'er exchanged a glance and curled their lips in a mocking smile.
.
Director Zhang is a man of great loyalty and always keeps his promises. He immediately went to discuss the matter with Assistant Director Sun.
Although he knew Lan Shu'er was just a pretty face, she was beautiful, so even as a background figure, she looked good, and he didn't care much.
Assistant Director Sun thought for a moment and said, "Isn't Lan Shuer's character 'Ji Qingwan' one of the stepsisters of the powerful villain in the past? Why don't we dig out some scenes from the sisters' feud?"
"You mean Ji Baishu, the other stepsister of the main villain?" Director Zhang asked in surprise. "Didn't A Ming cut that character?"
