After rebirth, I only date bad girls

Chapter 221 E-Bao and Sakura's Acting Showdown
Sakura is a great girl in every way, except that she's a bit too concerned about her image.

In this respect, she is not as good as Sheng Shuyi.

Sheng Shuyi shares some personality traits with Liang Can; to be precise, they are quite similar in their shamelessness.

So after hearing Liang Can's brief description of the plot, Yingza, who entered the broadcasting and hosting major at the top of her class, started to act coy.

"Um, Brother Can, it's not that I don't want to act, it's just that I've been quite busy with my studies lately~" Wen Xiying giggled, took Liang Can's arm, and lifted one leg back, her coquettish manner full of charm.

To keep Liang Can from getting angry, Wen Xiying linked arms with him and pressed her ample chest against his arm.

Bribe me?
You're using this to test the class leaders?

Liang Can frowned: "Are you that busy with your studies?"

Wen Xiying nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, I'm super busy."

Liang Can: "Then I'll drop out of school, so I won't be so busy."

Wen Xiying: “.”

Sakura released Liang Can, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Hey, this isn't even human language."

Liang Can could understand why the young lady cared about her appearance.

Brother Can is going to work on Wen Xiying's idol image.

"Since you're so busy, then let's just forget about it."

Liang Can sighed: "Then I'll have the screenwriter change the script so that Sheng Shuyi is the only female lead. Luckily you declined early, so there's still time to revise the script."

"When I kiss Sheng Shuyi, you mustn't be jealous."

After saying that, Liang Can turned to leave.

Wen Xiying grabbed Liang Can, sticking her butt out, and said, "Wait, why do we have to kiss?"

"Perks for actresses."

"A crime has been committed! A crime has been committed!"

Liang Can spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, tossing his bangs: "What's wrong with sacrificing my mouth for art? If necessary, I can even sacrifice my body."

Wen Xiying gasped, utterly shocked: "There's even a sex scene?"

It wasn't originally there.

But didn't you just remind me?

Liang Can was overjoyed and patted Wen Xiying on the shoulder: "That's a great idea! I'll have them add the bed scene when we get back!"

"."

Wen Xiying realized that Liang Can was forcing her to abdicate.

Given this scoundrel's relentless attitude, if he wanted to save face and refuse to participate, he would do anything outrageous.

Her eyes darted around, and Wen Xiying pursed her lips: "I'll participate."

She truly is my wonderful sister; she always supports my career so much.

I'll include you in the bed scene when we film it.

Don't ever say that I don't take care of you.

"Then go back and prepare well, and wait for my notification." Liang Can walked away with a chuckle.

Wen Xiying stood there, watching Liang Can walk away, and then touched her chin.

"Filming a movie with Sheng Shuyi?"

Wen Xiying's lips curled up, quite disdainfully: "Does she know what filming is, or what acting is? In the end, won't I be crushing her?"

Thinking about it, I really feel embarrassed.

Back in the dorm, her roommate noticed that Wen Xiying always had a smile on her face and would often burst out laughing suddenly, which piqued her curiosity.

"Sakura, has something good happened?"

"Is it good news?" Wen Xiying looked at her roommate and smiled even more brightly. "I guess it's good news, yes, it's good news."

in a few days

Those who frequently work in film and television should know that before the actual filming begins, the actors will gather together to familiarize themselves with the script, go over their lines, and communicate with each other.

Liang Can needed a venue that could provide some shooting locations and also have enough space to gather everyone together to discuss things.

After much deliberation, Liang Can contacted Sheng Shuyi's mother, Dai Yueting, and asked to rent the largest suite in her hotel.

When Dai Yueting learned that Liang Can was renting the venue to film a short drama and that her silly daughter was the lead actress, she was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation.

When Liang Can made this call, Xu Zhengyao happened to be serving tea and water to Dai Yueting.

Upon learning that Liang Can was going to film a short drama, Xu Zhengyao immediately called him: "Good brother, let me join in this fun. I can bring my own investment to the production. Just give me a small role to have some fun!"

"Of course, it would be even better if I could have some interaction with the little beaker."

Liang Can flipped through the script, crossed his legs, and said, "It's not impossible. I happen to have a role for you, a spoiled rich kid who bullies men and women, with quite a few bed scenes. Do you want to give it a try?"

Xu Zhengyao was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation: "I'm willing! Liang Can, you really are my good brother, always thinking of me when there's something good!"

"I've made up my mind. I'll bring 10 RMB of my own money to join the crew, and I'll definitely live up to your expectations!"

After hanging up the phone, Liang Can continued to flip through the script, nodding frequently.

Okay, okay, the plot is corny enough, I like it.

Mu Cheng, a senior student who was standing nearby, overheard Liang Can and Xu Zhengyao's conversation and asked curiously, "Junior, where in our script is there a character like the one you were just playing?"

Yes, there are.

Liang Can flipped through a few pages and pointed to one of the character outlines for Senior Mu Cheng: "The villainous third male lead drives his car to hit the male lead on a rainy night, but unexpectedly, the male lead is having a half-car crash that day to experience life, and the villainous third male lead is hit and becomes a vegetable, lying in a hospital bed for 50 episodes."

"The female lead makes her entrance, vowing to avenge her comatose brother."

Senior Mu Cheng: "."

Although they haven't met yet, Senior Mu Cheng has already started to feel sorry for Xu Zhengyao.

Wow, that's extravagant! No wonder he's a rich kid. He spent 10 yuan just to sleep in a TV show.

A few days later, Liang Can led a large group of people to Sheng Shuyi's hotel.

Dai Yueting seemed to take this quite seriously, not only providing the most luxurious suite in the hotel, but also setting aside a meeting room specifically for the film crew.

Apart from a few key characters, the other minor characters were all played by the health mentors from the previous "Positive and Uplifting" and "Peach Blossom" series.

Xu Zhengyao arrived even earlier than Liang Can and the others; he had been waiting in the conference room for an hour.

Upon seeing Liang Can enter, Xu Zhengyao immediately stood up, walked over, and gave Liang Can a big hug without saying a word.

Xu Zhengyao patted Liang Can hard on the back, deeply moved: "Good brother, thank you for giving me a chance to perform. Maybe this will bring out my hidden acting talent."

"Maybe I can develop a career in the entertainment industry in the future!"

Liang Can looked very serious and said earnestly, "This is not impossible, because your role requires a very high level of acting skills and tests one's talent."

Seriously, being able to lie motionless in bed takes skill.

This is called the "Sleep Acting Technique".

Liang Can shook hands with Xu Zhengyao and offered a few words of encouragement before turning to the finance manager and saying, "Sister Liu, have Mr. Xu transfer the sponsorship fee to you first; this is an important matter."

"Yes, yes, I'll transfer the money first!" Xu Zhengyao casually pulled out his bank card.

After Xu Zhengyao transferred the money into the account, Liang Can said to Mu Cheng, "Senior, give the script to President Xu and let him experience the character's personality first."

Xu Zhengyao happily accepted the script, hid in a corner, sat down, and began to read it very seriously.

After a while.
"Liang Can, you son of a bitch, is this the guy you were talking about, the one with lots of sex scenes???"

Xu Zhengyao waved the script and shouted angrily, "RNM, give me my money back!"

Refund? Go to Iraq if you want a refund.

Xu Zhengyao is a typical example of a kind-hearted but foolish second-generation rich kid.

Brother Can wanted him to experience the harsh realities of society beforehand, so he wouldn't be scammed out of even more money later.

"Brother Yao, let me explain."

"I won't listen, give me my money back!"

Liang Can hugged Xu Zhengyao and said seriously, "Returning the money would hurt our relationship. This drama is just to let you experience the filming atmosphere first. When we film the second drama, I'll make you the male lead!"

Xu Zhengyao sneered: "I don't believe a single word you say now. I treated you like a brother, but you treat me like a Japanese soldier."

"What I said is true."

Liang Can said to Xu Zhengyao, "Short dramas are a very broad market that has not yet been developed. If you can accumulate experience and grasp the essence of it, you may become a pioneer in this industry!"

"You'll thank me when the sacks are full of money."

The short drama market did indeed experience unprecedented development in later generations. A complete industrial chain was formed in Zhengzhou, and there was a shortage of short drama actors, with production teams vying for actors from each other.

Xu Zhengyao originally didn't want to believe Liang Can's words anymore, but he also felt that Liang Can was a very strange person.

Who could be a 19-year-old male college student who could get into so much trouble and succeed every time?

"I'll trust you one last time." Xu Zhengyao pointed at Liang Can. "The last time!"

After saying that, Yao returned to the corner and began to ponder how to successfully steal the spotlight while playing a vegetable.

At this moment, the conference room door opened, and Sheng Shuyi led Su Xiaoxuan in.

Almost immediately after, Wen Xiying arrived.

The moment these two incredibly beautiful girls entered, everyone around them felt honored.

The aura of top beauties is truly different from that of ordinary people. The confidence that comes from their stunning looks is something that ordinary people can't fake.

Moreover, both of their outfits today were clearly carefully coordinated. They didn't look flashy, but they paid great attention to the details.

The two looked at each other across the distance, then turned their heads away.

"Humph."

"Humph."

Liang Can glanced at Sheng Shuyi, then at Wen Xiying, thinking to himself that the reactions after their meeting were quite subtle.

It seems that if we want to film smoothly from now on, we'll have to rely on our micro-management skills.

I, Liang Can, am best at being stubborn and trying to solve both problems at the same time.

"The two leading ladies are here. Without further ado, let's start going over the script." Liang Can gestured for everyone to sit down.

Sheng Shuyi and Wen Xiying walked towards their seats together, their eyes fixed straight ahead.

But the conversation had already begun.

Wen Xiying smiled and said, "Sister Shuyi, it's been a long time."

Sheng Shuyi: "It hasn't been long enough."

Wen Xiying giggled: "Sister is still the same as before, quick-witted and outspoken, hasn't changed at all."

After a pause, Wen Xiying looked at Sheng Shuyi and asked curiously, "Why are you still as annoying as before?"

Sheng Shuyi: “?”

E-Bao and Yingza sat facing each other, holding their scripts and looking down at them, without exchanging a word.

Su Xiaoxuan came to join in the fun today, interested in everything, looking around like a curious child.

She was even more excited when she learned that Wen Xiying would also be in the cast.

Su Xiaoxuan had also heard about the love-hate relationship between Sheng Shuyi and Wen Xiying.

"Alright, everyone's here. Let me explain the play to the actors first."

Chief editor Hu Yangyang nervously pushed up her round-framed glasses, cleared her throat, and said, "The title of our drama is 'Bad Girls, Don't Waste It.' The plot is briefly about Liang Shao, the head of a century-old family in City A, and his relationship with two bad girls."

"The two bad girls are the heads of two other prominent families in City A, ruthless and invincible in the business world."

Su Xiaoxuan leaned close to Sheng Shuyi to look at the script, and said in a low voice, "Shuyi, let's not talk about whether the script is local or not. The person opposite you is a broadcasting and hosting major with experience in this field. You're a newcomer. Won't you be overshadowed?"

Stealing the show?

Sheng Shuyi glanced at Wen Xiying, sneered, and said with absolute confidence, "No need to worry, I have been working hard to improve my acting skills and have mastered the Tang family's acting principles!"

"Now, I may not have the acting skills of an award-winning actress, but I am at least as good as a popular actress."

Su Xiaoxuan, though bewildered, exclaimed in awe: "Amazing! Amazing!"

After praising Sheng Shuyi, Su Xiaoxuan asked, "It sounds impressive, but what exactly is this Tang's Acting Rules?"

Before Sheng Shuyi could speak, Wen Xiying across from her snorted disdainfully.

"The core of the so-called Tang-style acting rules is to steal the spotlight."

"Don't let your opponent take the lead; you have to seize the show."

From the second season of Love Apartment, Tang Youyou.

Wen Xiying put down the script, cupped her face in one hand, and looked at Sheng Shuyi with a bright smile, her tone light: "Sister Shuyi, I didn't expect you to have put in so much hard work. You've even learned such a powerful acting technique as the Tang's Acting Method."

"Without a doubt," Sheng Shuyi said calmly.

Wen Xiying: '.'

What are you so sure about?

Wen Xiying continued with a smile, "But acting skills are all about talent."

That's absolutely true. When Andy Lau and Tony Leung co-starred in "Infernal Affairs," Andy Lau exclaimed that Tony Leung was simply too amazing.

Andy Lau arrived at the film set early every day and spent a lot of time immersing himself in and understanding the character, putting in a lot of hard work.

As for Tony Leung, he treated every day like clocking in and out of get off work; he would come, shoot, and leave.

In the movie "Infernal Affairs," the scene where Superintendent Wong is thrown off a building and dies in front of Tony Leung's character, and the look in Tony Leung's eyes during that scene, is still considered a classic.

Do you think he spent a long time cultivating his emotions and filming many takes to create this classic?
No, they just filmed it directly, and that's the result.

This is top-tier talent.

Sheng Shuyi crossed her legs and looked up at Wen Xiying: "What do you mean by that? Are you saying I have no talent, or that you have exceptional talent?"

Wen Xiying leaned back in her chair and shrugged: "You've said everything I wanted to say, what else can I say?"

"?"

"Little brat, don't be so overconfident, okay?" Sheng Shuyi frowned.

Wen Xiying looked completely innocent and said in a coquettish tone, "I call you 'older sister,' but you call me 'little sister.' What did I do wrong to deserve this treatment from you?"

These words, combined with Wen Xiying's pure and delicate appearance, instantly created a vivid image of a pitiful, innocent girl.

Su Xiaoxuan hurriedly tugged at Sheng Shuyi's sleeve and warned, "Shuyi, if you keep going like this, you'll become a bad woman."

Sheng Shuyi also realized that this little green tea girl was setting a trap for her.

Unconsciously, I became the bad older sister.

How to break the game?

I can't lose, I can't lose right from the start.

E-Bao had a sudden inspiration and immediately said, "I'm getting into character. Didn't you see the character setting I was given in the script? I'm immersing myself in it, understanding it, and applying it flexibly."

After saying that, Sheng Shuyi raised her voice and winked at Wen Xiying with a knowing wink: "I didn't mean anything by it, little sister!"

E-Baby has a natural advantage in voice.

She used to disdain being a trap, but if Sheng Shuyi wanted to trap someone, ordinary people would be no match for her.

After all, our Ebao has a top-notch sweet voice, which contrasts sharply with her aloof appearance.

After listening, Wen Xiying thought to herself, "He's a little clever, but that's all he is."

You barely got through this time, but you might not be so lucky next time.

Xu Zhengyao sat next to Liang Can. He had been observing Sheng Shuyi and Wen Xiying and felt that the atmosphere between the two was a bit tense.

"Liang Can, don't you feel that my sister and Wen Xiying have completely immersed themselves in their roles? They've already started to compete openly and secretly, trying to steal you away from us."

Liang Can shook his head: "I think it's just him playing himself."

Xu Zhengyao: "?"

Haha, that's hilarious! You're so confident!

Xu Zhengyao laughed and patted Liang Can on the shoulder: "Dude, I admit you're very talented, but there are some things you can't control. I have more experience in this area. Want to learn? I'll teach you."

Liang Can glanced at Xu Zhengyao: "What can you teach me? How do you teach me to spend money on gold diggers?"

Xu Zhengyao: “.”

Do you know how hurtful your words are?

“Alright, let’s start with the audition for the female lead’s first scene,” said Director Mu Cheng.

Liang Can nudged Xu Zhengyao: "It's your turn to go on stage. Find a place to lie down."

Xu Zhengyao climbed onto the conference table, cursing and swearing, and lay down upright.

This part of the drama depicts Xu Zhengyao driving his car into Liang Can's semi-trailer truck, resulting in him being seriously injured and hospitalized.

Then, as Xu Zhengyao's sister, the female lead Sheng Shuyi visits him at the hospital.

"It's my turn to go on stage, right?" Sheng Shuyi was eager to try.

She walked to Xu Zhengyao's side, took a deep breath, and composed herself.

After a moment, Sheng Shuyi said quietly, "Xu Zhengyao, turn your head away. I can't help but laugh when I see your face."

Xu Zhengyao, who had been sleeping soundly, was suddenly thrown off guard by this provocation.

"Who would turn their head away when they're in a vegetative state?"

"I'm just lying here doing nothing and I'm being laughed at. Am I some kind of born comedic genius? Sheng Shuyi, are you even capable?"

Sheng Shuyi got angry, reached out and turned Xu Zhengyao's head around, then spoke in a cold tone.

"You useless piece of trash! You can't even figure out how you hit someone. I get annoyed just looking at your face!"

This little smell is so ticklish!
It came up in no time.

Not only the onlookers, but even Liang Can was a little surprised and delighted.

E-Bao's portrayal of this sharp-tongued and aloof character is practically stepping into her comfort zone; it's practically a natural performance.

That line wasn't in the script at all; Sheng Shuyi added it on the spot.

I must say, it tastes absolutely perfect!

Seeing the admiring glances from those around her, Sheng Shuyi proudly raised her chin.

This is the power of the Down Syndrome Performance Law!
Then, Wen Xiying's slightly mocking voice came from the side: "A bunch of good-for-nothings, why are they fighting like dogs? It seems that if we want to bring down the Liang family, we Wen family will have to step in."

"The Sheng family is nothing special."

Sheng Shuyi turned around abruptly, but Wen Xiying showed no fear.

Their eyes met, and it was as if lightning flashed between them.
