The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 562 The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 Begins Filming

That's not all. Don't forget, Da Mi Mi also has shares in Shenlei Technology, and quite a lot of them. Her annual dividends have never been delayed. If she wants to lie low now, she can do so without any problem.

Of course, given her personality, she would never choose this, whether in her past life or this one.

That scumbag should feel ashamed... yeah right.

Getting back to the main point, these are all speculations, there's no way to confirm them, and Xu Jiuyang wouldn't ask directly, so they're just guesses.

However, no matter what, Yang Mi has Tang Yan and Liu Shishi under her tight control, and there's also Zhao Liying as her assistant. Zhao Xiaodao never hesitates to take the lead.

As for Liu Qianqian's role in it, Xu Jiuyang glanced at the silly girl and thought that it was already quite good that she wasn't completely fooled by Yang Mi.

Despite having so many thoughts running through his mind, he still replied casually, "Okay, I already promised, and I definitely won't go back on my word."

"And then she didn't even memorize her lines," Yang Mi said coolly from the side.

"Don't bring up things you don't want to talk about," Xu Jiuyang rolled his eyes. "Do you really need to spend time memorizing these lousy lines? You can just cram for them a couple of days before filming starts."

Thanks to years of mana replenishment, he is exceptionally good at rote memorization, much like how a little exercise can help maintain muscle mass.

“Okay, let’s start filming tomorrow,” Da Mimi said immediately.

Xu Jiuyang almost choked on his saliva and exclaimed, "Huh?"

"I said it will be on tomorrow." Da Mimi spread her hands.

"No... you've already made preparations." Xu Jiuyang was somewhat surprised.

"Oh dear, didn't I tell you?" Da Mimi looked surprised. "I'm so sorry."

What do you do when you suddenly feel an itch to play? Someone clenched their fist, then stood up and said, "Really? Then let's go to the film set now."

Yang Mi, who was still feeling smug, paused for a moment, then raised her chin and said unhurriedly, "What's the rush? Let's get the lines right first."

"Oh?" Xu Jiuyang smiled meaningfully. "I think it's fine to go to the set to rehearse my lines, after all, I'm the male lead."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Tang Yan and Liu Shishi on his left and right sides.

Tangtang and Shishi exchanged a glance, then looked at Da Mimi together, and then gave each other an apologetic look before raising their hands in support: "We also think it's okay!"

"Hmm, very energetic." Xu Jiuyang nodded in satisfaction. This was actually a test, a test of whether they unconditionally supported Yang Mi. Now it seemed that although she had some issues with the CPU, she generally considered them friends.

Da Mimi visibly gritted her teeth, then kicked Liu Qianqian, who was watching the scene unfold, ignoring her bewildered expression. She immediately stood up and said, "No problem? What do you mean no problem? I'm the producer, what I say goes!"

She spoke with her chest out and head held high, the heavy fruit quite conspicuous: "I said, let's go over the lines here first before we talk."

Tang Yan and Liu Shishi exchanged glances. The former shrugged, while the latter said apologetically to Xu Jiuyang, "I'm sorry, Brother Yang, we still have to listen to the producer."

Xu Jiuyang was speechless. He had just praised them for being opinionated, but they hadn't unconditionally supported her.

But since things had come to this, he could only eat first, so he pretended to be generous and hummed, "Fine, I'll give the producer face."

Xu Jiuyang wasn't surprised that Da Mimi would become the producer of "Chinese Paladin 3". Given her personality, it would be strange if she didn't want to be a producer, especially since she had a close relationship with Xiaoli, the main investor.

Her ability is self-evident. Although Han Shu Film Studio was established late, she still managed to pick up a lot of bargains, such as investing over a million yuan in the "Yang Guang's Happy Life" series.

Although this TV series wasn't well-known, Xu Jiuyang only learned about it because of the uproar surrounding Yang Shaohua's family affairs before his rebirth. However, despite its lack of fame, it was quite popular in Tianjin, and with a well-signed contract, it could generate a steady stream of income.

In addition, the Zhenhua series not only made Liu Shishi somewhat famous, but also won her many fans within the Beijing Film Academy, and initially established a circle centered around her.

Last year, they even sent Tang Yan to the cast of Liu Yunlong's "Plot Against" to play Tang Yina. When it aired at the beginning of the year, her tango scene left a deep impression on the audience, giving her a new memorable moment after Lin Yueru.

Of course, that doesn't stop someone from giving Da Mi Mi a good beating with a stick a little later on.

"I simply can't believe you were just standing there watching me suffer!" Yang Mi complained to Liu Qianqian while they were on the set of "Chinese Paladin 3".

Although the film crew hadn't officially started filming yet, it wasn't far off. After confronting someone at their house that day, they joined the crew together just two days later.

"Have you been watching too many American TV shows?" Liu Qianqian asked innocently. "Why are you speaking in such a translator's tone?"

"Stop beating around the bush!" Da Mimi snorted, cracking her knuckles as if to say, "If you don't speak properly, don't blame me for dealing with you." "The night before, you dared to use... dared to use that term, but the next night, you became timid and hesitant."

"Once is enough for this kind of thing. If it happens every time, don't you feel..." Liu Qianqian was still speaking in a pretentious tone, but as she spoke, she suddenly shuddered and her face turned a little red.

Seeing this, Da Mi Mi narrowed her eyes, glanced at someone preparing in the distance, and lowered her voice: "In short, to make up for it, you have to come visit the set every few days."

"Why?" Liu Qianqian asked, puzzled.

"Because the great Tang Dynasty poets must stand together through thick and thin." Although Yang Mi said this, her eyes were quite wandering.

"Oh?" Liu Qianqian crossed her arms. "I didn't see you let Tangtang play Zixuan?"

"Is this the same thing?" Yang Mi glared at her. "To put it bluntly, if it weren't for him, would I have made Li Xiaoyao and Jing Tian look like the same person?"

"Really?" Liu Qianqian's lips curled slightly. "Is it because of him, or because of me?"

She dragged out that last sentence, making it sound so sarcastic and teasing that it seemed almost obnoxious.

"Both are fine, isn't that enough?" Da Mimi snorted coldly. "Do you know how much hair the screenwriters lost to solve the problem of Li Xiaoyao and Jing Tian having the same face? And how much extra money we paid?"

That's true. Their alliance is one of the best in terms of treating screenwriters. Not only do many of them get credit, but even those who don't get credit receive financial subsidies. They wouldn't do something like exploiting people and then kicking them to the curb.

“Then just pay more money,” Liu Qianqian argued confidently. “I’ll just pay for it myself!”

"Oh my, having money really makes a difference, Fairy." Da Mimi immediately retorted sarcastically.

"Oh dear, how can I compare to Mi'er? She's not only rich, she's incredibly wealthy," Liu Qianqian said in a humble yet affected tone.

The two girls glared at each other, humming and snorting, just like two kittens waving their clawless front paws in a show of bravado—quite childish.

In the end, Yang Mi couldn't hold back any longer: "Are you really that opposed to Wang Ou playing Zi Xuan?"

“I think she has a big face,” Liu Qianqian said confidently.

"The design is based on Zi Xuan from the game, not Zi Xuan from Tangren."

"I just think she has a big face."

"Just cover it up."

"Big face, big face, big face!"
