Did Cai Feihong buy a ticket and leave overnight?
His actions were so swift; it seems he's truly afraid.
Ye Zhizhou felt a little better and ate his breakfast faster, just waiting to go to film.
"Judging from your expression, it really is because of you, Ye Zhizhou. How old are you? You look like you've just started high school. Are you really an adult?"
Xu Jingchen simply sat down next to Ye Zhizhou and continued to inquire. Ye Zhizhou was really too interesting; many people he had met before did not have this kind of charm.
"Have you memorized all your lines?"
Ye Zhizhou had almost finished eating when he turned to ask Xu Jingchen, who nodded, seemingly puzzled, "Yes."
"Then eat faster, don't waste my time."
Xu Jingchen was taken aback. It turned out that in her eyes, asking questions was a waste of his time.
He expressed his grievances, but Ye Zhizhou didn't care.
The set was already set up, just waiting for everyone else to be in place.
"We're filming an action scene today, so you might need to get used to each other first. We have a dedicated martial arts instructor. Ye Zhizhou, come over here."
Director Chen was explaining the scene while simultaneously bringing up Ye Zhizhou.
Ye Zhizhou stepped out from the crowd, walked to the director's side, and waited quietly for him to speak.
Chen Hao glanced at her figure and made up his mind.
"As a female agent, you can't be too weak. You're a bit thin, but that's okay. Start by practicing strength with the instructor."
Because Ye Zhizhou's performance yesterday was so outstanding, Chen Hao remembered her immediately. He had been a little hesitant when casting Ye Zhizhou for this role, feeling that she was too young to portray the kind of feeling a secret agent should have.
Ye Zhizhou nodded, "I understand, Director. I will practice hard."
She is indeed at a disadvantage in terms of strength, but fortunately she has technique, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
She learned the movements from the instructor, while the others focused on filming.
Xu Jingchen and she had a scene together, but it was just a regular scene with no fight scenes.
Her action scenes were mostly for rescuing the main character.
"Little girl, you are indeed too thin. Let me see you lift this up."
The martial arts instructor is in his forties and is a very experienced teacher. He has directed many TV series and is quite famous in the industry.
He could tell at a glance that Ye Zhizhou looked rather frail.
Nowadays, actresses starve themselves to look like sticks in order to look good on camera, so when they really need to exert themselves, they can't show that feeling.
Ye Zhizhou calmly lifted the dumbbell in front of her. The dumbbell weighed about 20 pounds, and she lifted it with ease.
When she first transmigrated, the original owner's body was indeed not very good, but after her training, it became much stronger than before.
The experienced instructor was a little surprised. "You actually managed to lift it up. Not bad, not as bad as I thought. In that case, I can start teaching you the movements."
Because it's a spy film, there will inevitably be some gunfight scenes, and using guns requires some strength.
Ye Zhizhou followed the master's instructions very seriously and learned the action scenes very well in less than two hours.
The experienced teacher was very pleased to see her rapid progress.
"Director Chen has chosen some good people this time. Alright, we've practiced enough, let's get ready to go."
They were doing very well on their end, but Director Chen suddenly got angry.
There's no other reason; the second female lead just couldn't get into character.
The second female lead is portrayed as being on the opposite side of the male lead. Her stance differs from the male lead's, which causes problems in their relationship.
It was at this moment that the female protagonist came into the male protagonist's sight.
Li Zixi, the actress who played the second female lead, was a supporting actress in a recent hit drama. This supporting role helped her land the role of the second female lead.
But she couldn't get into character, and she didn't know why. She would burst out laughing when she acted with the male lead, and Director Chen told her several times, but she still couldn't change.
"Li Zixi, you need to understand, this is a film set. I know you two are good friends, but you're an actor. When you're on set, just focus on acting!"
Director Chen doesn't hold back when he's scolding people. He doesn't care who has a sugar daddy or anything like that; he just cares about how well the performance is done.
Li Zixi looked a little embarrassed. She had never been spoken to like this by any other director before. She only got the role because her agent helped her secure the resources. If she had known that Director Chen had this kind of temper, she definitely wouldn't have come.
"Director Chen, I'm so sorry, I probably didn't sleep well last night and I'm not feeling well. Please wait for me to adjust myself."
Since she was the director, she couldn't very well argue with him directly.
Chen Hao dislikes actors making excuses for not performing well. He was a little impatient and said, "You're not the only one who didn't sleep well. How could Yan Bing get into character? Think about it carefully. We won't film your part for now."
Li Zixi sat awkwardly to the side, feeling uneasy as she listened to the director praise Yan Bing.
Yan Bing is the female lead in this drama. She is considered a newcomer. She was able to get the female lead role entirely because Chen Hao insisted on protecting her.
The female lead in the script is a recent college graduate who is inexperienced and knows nothing. Yan Bing just happens to fit Chen Hao's requirements.
Yan Bing did not disappoint Chen Hao; she performed very well during the acting process, and the number of times she was stopped was almost nonexistent.
"Director Chen, I've almost mastered the action sequences, we can start filming now."
After they finished speaking, Ye Zhizhou went up to Director Chen and talked about it. She liked Director Chen's frankness, which other directors might not be able to do.
After all, there are interests involved.
"So fast?"
Chen Hao was a little incredulous. Action scenes play a significant role in spy dramas, and he takes them very seriously.
"Let's give it a try."
Seeing Ye Zhizhou nod, he didn't say anything more and let Ye Zhizhou act with the male lead.
"You can ask if you need a stand-in; it's not that strict."
Seeing that Ye Zhizhou was rather thin, Chen Hao thought for a moment and then gave her a choice.
Ye Zhizhou declined Chen Hao's offer, saying, "Director Chen, I'm sure I don't need a stunt double."
Hearing this, Li Zixi, who was sitting to the side, thought that Ye Zhizhou was talking big. Action scenes were not so easy. She wondered how Ye Zhizhou would embarrass herself later.
Originally, Li Zixi had no hostility towards Ye Zhizhou, but seeing how much the director appreciated her, she couldn't help but feel a pang of jealousy.
"Then let's try it first. You can tell me if there are any movements you can't do."
Chen Hao's tone softened slightly.
Ye Zhizhou nodded and entered the arena. He fought the enemy according to the moves designed by the master. His movements were so smooth and fluid that he actually passed the move in one go. Director Chen was so engrossed in watching that he almost forgot to call "cut".
"You're amazing! The action scenes were much better than I expected. Your movements were clean, crisp, and efficient, bringing the character to life!"
