Jiang Baiyan is currently filming a family drama about a divorced and remarried family, with a child on each side, and how the stepfather, stepmother, stepbrother and stepsister get along with each other.

The agent was not optimistic about the drama and preferred another big-budget costume drama.

But Jiang Baiyan refused.

First, the other party offered him the second male lead, which was not a big deal, but his character was a bit romantic and had no personal charm. Second, he was still young, and his acting range would only become wider and wider in the future, so it was important for him to hone his acting skills first.

The big agent has more than one artist under his command. He doesn't want this resource, there are many who want it. He turned around and pushed another male artist up, warning him: "Don't regret it."

Jiang Baiyan smiled: "I know Sister Lin will not ignore me."

"You little bastard, stop being naughty." The big agent scolded him, but still helped him negotiate a family drama.

They spread the word, and the investment resources for that drama improved immediately. The director used his own connections and invited two middle-aged actors with high national popularity to play the parents.

They are actually about fifty years old, and the scripts they found are basically those of the parents' generation. The character settings are highly similar, and they are surrounded by parents who urge marriage and snobbish in-laws.

Comparing the plot, this family drama can be regarded as half a protagonist, and the character setting is full, so she is willing to do it.

The remaining little sister role was taken by Cai Tong'er.

Jiang Baiyan was also a little stunned at the time. Why did this sister come to play this role without bringing money to join the group to make money? Sister Chen asked around and found out that her original role was snatched away and her schedule was vacated.

Her company thought about it and found out that Jiang Baiyan's drama had not yet decided on the female lead. She was delighted. Isn't this a perfect opportunity to hype up the CP? Spread the word that the male and female protagonists, when the popularity rises, are stepbrothers and sisters, which has both popularity and no hidden dangers.

Cai Tong'er was also very satisfied.

Her acting skills are not that good. She looks good in ancient costumes, but she is always criticized for her lack of acting skills. This time, she is acting as a girl of the same age, which is a natural performance. There shouldn't be any problem .

When the time comes, the press release will brag about her improved acting skills. It's perfect.

As for the director... Alas, these days, facing a little princess with her own funds, few people can insist on anything. Just make do with it. Cai Tong'er is a popular little flower after all, and her pretty face will eventually take advantage.

Sister Chen scolded her a few times behind her back, but this is common in the industry, so what can she do?

So the filming started.

There are not many outdoor scenes for family dramas, most of them are shot in the studio, and the progress is pushed forward day by day. Everything is normal. Until half a month ago.

That day was Cai Tong'er's birthday, and her fans sent her many gifts, including a big cake. Everyone in the crew came to congratulate, and they shared the meal.

Jiang Baiyan had to participate in such a lively event even if he didn't want to. He didn't have his parents to support him, and the boss was behind him. If he wanted to make a name for himself, he had to be kind to others. He had no right to be willful, so he naturally congratulated happily.

As a result, when he returned to the hotel after filming the next day, he saw a few bloody words on the mirror in the room.

Don't talk to her.

Sister Chen gasped in shock at the time. The assistant bravely went up to touch it and breathed a sigh of relief. It was just paint.

This matter could be big or small. Sister Chen calmed down, didn't say anything, and went to check the surveillance herself. Who would have thought that the surveillance was broken and nothing could be found, so she had to change rooms to deal with it.

A few days later, it was time for the main scene of the stepsiblings. This was the climax of the whole play. The director attached great importance to it and asked Jiang Baiyan early on to act more with Cai Tong'er.

Jiang Baiyan's face suddenly turned bitter.

Cai Tong'er was OK at singing and dancing, but she had no talent for acting. She was lively and cheerful, but she knelt down when she got into the inner struggles of the characters.

She knew it herself, and without waiting for Jiang Baiyan to find an excuse, she threw the coffee cup after saying thank you.

He had no choice but to agree.

After the rehearsal, there was a strange smell in the coffee cup the next day.

Jiang Baiyan calmed down and handed the things to Sister Chen for testing. The result was that detergent was added inside.

In the middle of the night, a note was stuffed into the crack of the door: You will regret it.

Sister Chen couldn't remain calm any longer: "We have to investigate this matter thoroughly."

Jiang Baiyan looked at her and said nothing.

As expected, Sister Chen called Tongda Brokerage, but the other party told her not to make it public: "It will be embarrassing for the crew if it gets out, and it will also hurt the harmony."

Jiang Baiyan encountered trouble in the crew, and the fans must blame the crew. That's fine, because the crew didn't do their job well and let someone get in.

But if they leave it, Cai Tong'er will be involved, and if it's not handled properly, things will get out of hand.

Sister Chen was upset, but Jiang Baiyan said: "I know, I'll find a way myself."

Then he called Jian Jing and asked her to come over to help.

Sister Chen was not expecting him to do this and was full of doubts: "Why did you ask Teacher Jian to come?"

"The crew of Devil is next door." Jiang Baiyan said, "She came to visit, it won't arouse suspicion."

Sister Chen stared at him: "Is that so? You should know that the company doesn't want you to have any emotional problems at the moment."

Male artists rely on female fans for their livelihood, not to mention Jiang Baiyan is young, and falling in love will undoubtedly dig his own grave. Not only will he not be able to explain to the fans, but the company may also freeze him in the future.

Jiang Baiyan nodded: "I know."

"Then why is it Teacher Jian?" Sister Chen was puzzled.

"Because she is very powerful." Jiang Baiyan narrowed his eyes and sent a message with flying fingers.

[Teacher Jingjing, come and save me ππ]

Jian Jing knew that Jiang Baiyan's crew was close to the Devil Doctor, so she called Director Huang. She greeted him and said that the second part had been written. I heard that the show had already started filming, and wondered if it would be convenient for her to go over and learn more.

"I haven't seen a TV series filmed before." She said so.

Director Huang worked well with her, and although he was afraid that she would make comments, he still agreed: "Of course, you are welcome anytime."

Jian Jing said hello to Kang Mucheng and set off to visit the crew.

Nowadays, filming is either done at a film and television base or a studio, and the Devil Doctor is no exception. Most of the scenes are indoors, so a certain studio was chosen. It

was Jian Jing's first time to go to the crew, and she saw a lot of new things.

The studios are all located in the suburbs, converted from a large number of factories, but reporters and fans are stationed at the door all year round, waiting for the stars to come and go from get off work so they can take pictures.

As soon as Jian Jing got off the car, someone next to her said, "Which crew are you visiting?"

"How do you know I'm here to visit?" she asked curiously.

The man said, "You can tell at a glance."

Another middle-aged man smoking poked his head out of the car, looked at her carefully, and suddenly smiled: "I know, you are here to find the crew of "Doctor Devil."

Jian Jing raised her eyebrows: "Do you recognize me?"

"You are Teacher Jian." The middle-aged uncle smiled, his tone was quite proud, "I know everyone in the circle who has appeared before. Teacher Jian is very popular recently, of course I recognize him."

Jian Jing smiled, but did not take it seriously. She just pretended to be curious and asked: "What are you doing at the door?"

"Work." The uncle said, "Who else would go to this remote place."

Jian Jing raised her chin and pointed to a few girls who were walking together in the distance: "Are they here too?"

"Tsk, those are the fans." The uncle pointed casually, this one is for a certain young actress, that one is for a certain young hunk, and he knew them all like the back of his hand, as if they were vegetables grown in his own backyard.

Jian Jing paid close attention and found that most of the fans and reporters were stopped outside by the security guards, but there were also a few girls who made phone calls and were brought in.

"Why were they able to get in?" she asked.

The uncle was not surprised: "You can get in if you have connections."

Before he finished speaking, Director Huang's assistant trotted over to pick someone up: "Teacher Jian, this way, this way." He swiped the pass and led Jian Jing in, "Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"Nothing, I just came. Sorry to bother you with the trip." Jian Jing was still very polite.

Once inside, there were large sheds with equipment piled everywhere. People dressed in ancient, modern, and contemporary clothing were walking around, making the place very lively. Along the way, you can also see rest rooms, toilets, and shops, which are built just like a park.

"Is this your first visit, Mr. Jian?" The assistant was very talkative and started to introduce the studio. "Actually, filming is similar to a construction site, both are messy."

The studio where the Devil was filming was not far away. The interior of the hospital was set up, and Director Huang was directing the movie.

Writer Xu was sitting on a folding chair beside him with his legs crossed, flipping through the script in his hands, making some changes. In this world, screenwriters have a higher status and greater responsibilities. They usually follow the crew so that they can adjust the script at any time.

"Writer Xu." Jian Jing greeted him.

"Jingjing is here." Writer Xu and she escaped together from Yuhui Villa, and later participated in the adaptation of the Devil Doctor, so they have a very close relationship. "You came just in time, today we are shooting the scene of the devil killing people."

The heart that the devil eats must belong to the evil person, so there will be a set of purification rituals before killing, counting the mistakes of the deceased to prove that their "food" is clean, which is considered a famous scene in the play.

Jian Jing smiled and said, "Then I am lucky."

She did not bother Director Huang and stood by to watch.

As soon as the lights were turned on and the board was hit, the scene was silent, and the actors immediately entered the state.

"Perhaps you feel confused about your situation. Don't be afraid, dear lamb..." The actor who played the devil wiped the blade of the scalpel with his slender fingers and smiled kindly like a priest.

Jian Jing was immediately attracted by his performance. It was not until the actor finished reciting the lines that she suddenly came back to her senses: "It's really good."

Writer Xu laughed: "How can the people chosen by Old Huang be pleasing to him if they don't have some acting skills?"

Director Huang was a little dissatisfied. When he heard Writer Xu's voice, he turned his head and waved to them: "Old Xu, Jingjing, come here."

He played back the clip just now and asked them: "What do you think?"

Writer Xu said: "It's OK."

Jian Jing said: "I don't understand, you have the final say."

Director Huang asked sincerely, but he was also satisfied with the answer. He nodded at her: "Okay."

So this one was passed.

Jian Jing didn't want to disrupt their work, so she winked at Writer Xu and the two went to a quiet place to talk.

Scriptwriter Xu praised her: "You did a great job. Old Huang was bitten by a snake once, so he is afraid of the rope for ten years. We need to cooperate in the future. Don't look for him if you don't have anything."

"I understand. Creators don't like to be criticized." Jian Jing didn't take it as an offense. After a little hesitation, she whispered, "Actually, I want to ask you for help with something."

She briefly told him about Jiang Baiyan's trouble and asked him to help make an introduction so as not to alert the man.

It was just a piece of cake, so Writer Xu agreed

immediately. However, he had never seen a writer being asked to investigate a case in all his years in the entertainment industry, so he couldn't help asking a few more questions: "You came all the way here, are you close to Xiao Bai?" Jian Jing blinked: "This matter... is quite interesting."

Writer Xu saw that her expression did not seem to be fake, so he pondered and said: "It just so happens that I also know Lao Mao next door, let's go over to visit him."
