When Yu Yunzhi finished her makeup and went out, Xiaoyu had already been playing with Jiang Jiang for quite a while.
Aunt Li also came for a while and was cleaning up the mess in the kitchen.
Tang Sui leaned back on the sofa and played on her phone, just like the old man.
Yu Yunzhi glanced at the time; it was past 8:40, and he needed to be on set by 9:00.
"Let's go, Brother Tang," Yu Yunzhi called out to Tang Suihe, who was playing on his phone.
This place isn't far from the film set, and Yu Yunzhi originally didn't want Tang Sui and the others to come pick her up.
However, after the previous incidents that made it to the trending topics, Tang Suihe was clearly worried about Yu Yunzhi acting alone and insisted on coming to pick her up.
"Okay, is everything packed?"
"Alright." Yu Yunzhi told Aunt Li that Jiang Jiang wanted to go to the amusement park, and then said goodbye to Jiang Jiang before leaving.
Yu Yunzhi and the others arrived at the film set at exactly nine o'clock, neither too early nor too late.
"Hello, Director Yang! My name is Yu Yunzhi." Yu Yunzhi greeted the director of the film "The Banquet Ends" first.
If Director Zhang is the pinnacle of television drama directing, then Director Yang can be considered one of the pinnacles of film directing.
He has directed many works, all of which have become huge hits, and many new film talents have been discovered by him.
So this time, Director Yang wasn't afraid of Liu Yuci, who brought her own investment to the project. He was willing to replace her if necessary. He always had absolute say in the works he directed.
Director Yang was not satisfied, and no one could change his mind. At his level, acting was just a hobby, and no one could tarnish his work.
So before coming, Yu Yunzhi was a little nervous. Anyone would be nervous to meet such a senior.
Fortunately, like Director Zhang, Director Yang only appears intimidating on the surface, but is actually quite gentle on the inside.
"Hello, your name is Yunzhi, right?" Director Yang extended his hand to shake hands with Yu Yunzhi first. "Are you familiar with the script for the first scene we're shooting later?"
"I'm familiar with it now." The script was sent to Yu Yunzhi as soon as she was confirmed to star in the show.
Yu Yunzhi only had her part of the script at the beginning, which was very short with very few lines, just a few sentences, and she memorized it quickly.
The challenge lies in portraying Yu Qingwan's gentle, reserved, melancholic, and resilient temperament and feeling.
"Okay, let's go do our makeup first."
Yu Yunzhi changed her clothes as required and sat down in front of the dressing table.
The first scene was to depict Yu Qingwan's carefree teenage years.
At that time, she was unaware of the situation outside; she was simply a young lady from a prominent family longing for her beloved to return.
Every day she repeated the same routine of playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, and needlework, never leaving the deep courtyard of her mansion.
Therefore, her clothes were also on the brighter side, with intricate patterns embroidered on the light green dress. Her makeup was very light, just a little touch-up, mainly to highlight Yu Yunzhi's natural beauty.
"Yunzhi, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?"
The makeup artist was applying makeup to Yu Yunzhi. Yu Yunzhi didn't turn around, but looked at Fang Ziheng standing behind her through the mirror.
"I just arrived a short while ago," Yu Yunzhi replied, downplaying the issue.
Fang Ziheng naturally knew that Yu Yunzhi was coming to film today. After Director Yang said he wanted to replace Liu Yuci, he had been looking for a suitable replacement.
However, the people Director Yang contacted before were either too big-name and unwilling to take on supporting roles, or they lacked experience and couldn't handle the role of Yu Wanqing.
It was Fang Ziheng who recommended Yu Yunzhi to the director.
After watching Yu Yunzhi's acting, Director Yang made the final decision: she's the one. Director Yang didn't have Yu Yunzhi's agent's contact information, so it was Fang Ziheng's agent who helped him contact Yu Yunzhi's agent.
So of course he knew that Yu Yunzhi was filming today, but he didn't know what time he would arrive.
So he arrived at the film set around eight o'clock, waiting for Yu Yunzhi to arrive.
Unexpectedly, Yu Yunzhi arrived while he was in the lounge.
Yu Yunzhi is a supporting character and does not have her own dressing room. Her personal makeup artist did not come with her from Yun City, so she used the crew's shared dressing room and makeup artist.
There were a few child actors getting their makeup done in the dressing room, and they were listening intently to the conversation between the two people.
"Why have you lost weight? Have you been eating properly?" Fang Ziheng stared unabashedly at Yu Yunzhi, who was applying eye makeup with her eyes closed.
He only dared to look at Yu Yunzhi so brazenly when she had her eyes closed.
"I need to control my weight for the drama I'm filming now."
"Is it the one you're working on with Shao Wenyan?" Fang Ziheng had also seen the trending topics and naturally knew what Yu Yunzhi was filming.
"Um."
"Where's your previous makeup artist?" Fang Ziheng remembered that Yu Yunzhi had her own makeup artist, the one they used when they were filming together. The makeup artist who was doing Yu Yunzhi's makeup looked unfamiliar.
"In Yun City."
"Why don't you go to my dressing room? It's less crowded there and more comfortable than here."
As a male actor, Fang Ziheng naturally has his own dressing room.
"No need, we can finish filming today if we shoot quickly."
Fang Ziheng wasn't saddened by the rejection, but he was a little saddened by the thought that he wouldn't see Yu Yunzhi tomorrow.
It's so rare for the two of them to be able to work together again, and Yu Yunzhi is leaving so soon.
"How's it going in Yun City?" Fang Ziheng wasn't discouraged and made the most of every opportunity to chat with Yu Yunzhi.
"fine."
...
In a corner, several child actors gathered together.
Actor A: "Wow... I'm totally shipping them! My 'Perseverance' couple is finally together..."
Actor B: "I'm shipping them too, Frog Fun. I've been shipping them ever since I watched their dramas, especially that kissing scene, it was absolutely amazing."
Actor A: "Right, right? Ever since I watched that TV series, I've always wanted to know when they would get together. The chemistry between them doesn't seem like acting."
