"Script, script!" Song Yihe hurriedly stuffed the script through the crack in the door.
Shen Wangshu and Shen Xuan had been playing around all night, and they were just about to drift off to sleep sweetly when Song Yihe's knocking on the door disturbed them. Hiding behind Shen Xuan, she took the script with a complicated expression. She sighed deeply, asked Shen Xuan to open the door, and looked at Song Yihe, who was giving Shen Xuan a fawning smile, and said helplessly, "Director Song, you don't need to rush to deliver the script."
Who reads a script late at night, especially a big director? Knocking on a female star's door in the middle of the night, isn't that a bit inappropriate?
Shen Wangshu subtly expressed his opinion.
"No wonder Xiao Meng didn't invite me in for a coffee and a chat," Director Song said with a particularly wicked expression, as if he had just realized something.
Shen Wangshu suddenly felt quite relieved when Meng Fangfei slammed the door.
"Is there anything else?" Shen Wangshu stood to the side, fighting off sleepiness, casually flipping through the script. She found the script to be exceptionally detailed, typical of suspense films—meticulously crafted and tightly plotted, quickly drawing her into the tense storyline. This script was a rare gem, demonstrating Song Yihe's dedication to the project. Shen Wangshu read for a while longer, thinking she would carefully study the plot tomorrow, when she saw Song Yihe still at the door, cradling his plump belly and giving Shen Xuan a loving smile.
"Director Song?"
"You want funding?" Shen Xuan had only given Song Yihe 20 million initially, and judging from Director Song's expression, it seemed that wasn't enough.
But the film hasn't even started shooting yet. Isn't it inappropriate to spend money like water?
Mr. Shen is rich, but he's not a sucker.
Besides, Mr. Shen is a married man; how could he give so much money to outsiders?
Giving it to a fat old man would be even more outrageous!
"Give me some more, give me some more, may good people have a peaceful life." Director Song said devoutly, his chubby hands clasped together. "I'll add more scenes for Xiao Lü later."
Just thinking about Shen Xuan makes me angry!
The fat old man in "Beauty in the Palace" did add scenes for Shen Wangshu, but what did he turn them into?!
The disastrous "The Swordsman of Tianshan" has been taken off the air, while "Beauty in the Palace" is currently airing. This film, seen as a potential savior for ratings by a renowned director, garnered significant attention even before filming began. Its initial ratings completely surpassed "The Swordsman of Tianshan," and its popularity and buzz have only grown. The innocent and naive portrayal of the two childhood sweethearts entering the palace was already endearing, and the subsequent palace intrigues only added to the drama.
When the innocent and naive Consort Gui in the drama was framed by the concubines who thought she would be her friends, and was beaten to the ground by the higher-ranking concubines until her skin was torn and bleeding, the Consort Shu, played by Meng Fangfei, had nowhere to turn for help, and the Consort Gui's eyes changed in front of the camera.
She finally realized that sincerity was unnecessary in the palace; only by standing at the top could one do as one pleased and protect one's life.
She survived by sheer will, and after her wounds healed, she slowly came into the emperor's sight.
She rose to become a favored concubine.
The emperor loved her unbridled nature and passionate recklessness, a bright spot in the otherwise orderly and disciplined palace.
She killed the concubine who had framed her, and then casually decided to take her best friend to live in the most luxurious and beautiful palace in the palace.
She always remembered every word she had said, that she wanted to share happiness with her best friend.
But she refused her, unable to accept that she could so casually execute another concubine, unable to accept that she would dirty her hands and heart for revenge.
The two sisters had completely different values and eventually went their separate ways.
Even after countless hardships, the Imperial Concubine cried out to her best friend, who still yearned for conscience, "What goodwill?! Don't be naive! What sincerity is there in the palace? If you want to survive, you have to become even more ruthless than them!"
Her alluring eyes were filled with madness and undisguised pain; beneath her captivating beauty lay vulnerability and a fierce exterior masking inner weakness. She gripped her friend's arm tightly, watching her friend shed tears for her, but the once timid concubine who had only ever known to hide behind her now did not shed a single tear.
“I’m waiting for you to regret this…” she said, turning back to him.
But no one heard the expectation hidden beneath the Consort's words.
She gripped her arm tightly, her eyes filled with madness.
The despair of being abandoned and the deep pain in the eyes of Consort Shu, played by Meng Fangfei, are unforgettable.
In particular, both of them are truly beauties!
Some viewers have already expressed deep emotion after watching this episode, marveling at Meng Fangfei's heartless nature and the intensity of her tragic love.
Even though Consort Ming's steps were so slow and difficult to leave, she could have turned back to Consort Shu's side with just a single call!
Meng Fangfei's Weibo account has been flooded with posts about her.
"Treat her well!" became a trending topic.
Shen Xuan was so angry that he couldn't sleep, so he woke up Shen Wangshu in the middle of the night and they exercised together.
"You still have the nerve to ask for investment?" He looked at Song Yihe and asked with a sneer.
This drama was originally reshot; there weren't this many scenes when Consort Gui left Consort Shu. It's clear that Song Yihe expanded it to cater to a wider audience. However, this expansion completely changed the feel of the show. The way Shen Wangshu and Meng Fangfei's eyes were locked in a tender moment, even though it was Consort Gui who betrayed him, it was all portrayed as Consort Gui being tormented by Consort Shu.
Although Shen Xuan was very satisfied with Shen Wangshu's growing popularity, what did "together!" mean? This "together" referred to his wife and Meng Fangfei!
