Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 169 - Jing Tian: Bai Ye, are you single or in a relationship?

When the assistant director learned that Bai Ye had arrived, he was even more excited than Jing Tian.

After this question arose, the assistant director actually called Lin Yufen to ask what exactly was going on.

Because the best version of our film was shot by Lin Yufen.

Therefore, Lin Yufen should know more about Jing Tian's situation than she does.

The assistant director actually had serious doubts about his own abilities.

Because a good director can guide an actor's acting skills.

There's a reason he feels he's only an assistant director; Lin Yufen also gave assistant directors opportunities when filming Pinocchio.

He felt it was quite simple.

At that time, he felt that he could try to lead a low-budget TV series.

However, after joining the cast of "How Long Will I Love U", the assistant director admitted that he had indeed been overthinking things.

Moreover, some things are oversimplified.

Now, he himself has serious doubts about himself.

I only found out after calling Lin Yufen that Jing Tian's performance on set from the beginning was disastrous.

It wasn't until he discussed acting techniques with Bai Ye that he seemed to receive guidance from her, which is why the filming was completed.

This made the assistant director realize that Bai Ye might be the savior.

He almost jumped up when he learned that Bai Ye had arrived.

The savior has finally arrived!

Based on what Lin Yufen said, and after Jing Tian's disastrous acting performance in "With You," the assistant director admitted that he probably couldn't improve Jing Tian's acting skills.

"Jing Tian, ​​you should rest for a bit. Bai Ye is here."

After the assistant director called the sound cut, he immediately called Jing Tian over and told her about Bai Ye's arrival.

This young lady is someone you can't speak to, and you can't scold.

I can only coax.

They have connections, but I don't. If I say anything bad about Jing Tian, ​​I'll be the one who gets carried away.

He still cherishes this hard-won opportunity.

The reason for stopping Jing Tian was to get her to go find Bai Ye and rediscover the feeling she had when filming before.

Hearing the assistant director's words, Jing Tian wiped the sweat from her face, a fleeting smile of surprise crossing her face. "Okay, director."

Complied.

Jing Tian strode out of the film set with cheerful steps.

Upon seeing Bai Ye, Jing Tian began waving from afar, shouting, "Bai Ye, you've finally arrived!"

Although I already knew that Bai Ye would probably not arrive for a while.

But Bai Ye's timing was too tight.

Her recent performance has been poor. In fact, she is aware of this within the crew. Although the assistant director has not said anything to her, he has given her some suggestions.

Jing Tian did as the assistant director instructed.

But what bothered Jing Tian was why she couldn't understand what people were saying!
She did follow that advice, but while she did it, Jing Tian couldn't actually finish it.

So she was also waiting for Bai Ye. She felt that as long as Bai Ye came, her acting skills would improve, just like before.

"The Best of Us" became the pinnacle of her acting career.

Even now, many fans on Weibo are still reminiscing about how lively and charming Jing Tian was in "With You".

However, later on, the acting was very disappointing.

Jing Tian herself is also very upset, as many fans have already unfollowed her recently due to her poor performance.

Fortunately, after learning that she and Bai Ye would be collaborating again, fans had more confidence and expectations for her, and Jing Tian herself felt the same way.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Tian Tian."

Bai Ye and Jing Tian hugged each other gently, then let go.

He felt a pang of emotion; Jing Tian was being far too enthusiastic, and it seemed inappropriate to simply push her away.

Although it was just a hug, it still can't compare to Yang Mi.

Bai Ye suppressed this thought; there was no point in thinking about it.

"It hasn't been that long. Didn't we meet at the premiere back then?! I was really looking forward to it back then, hoping that the two of us could make a movie together. I didn't expect it to happen so soon!"

Jing Tian shook her head, the excitement on her face not yet completely dissipated.

This period has been a time of time alone with Bai Ye.

Although she had met Bai Ye before, what Jing Tian really wanted was this kind of time alone. In Jing Tian's view, regardless of whether Bai Ye was single or not, it was just the two of them together on set.

She felt that was enough.

If Bai Ye is single, then this time we should try our best to win him over.

“I already knew last time. It’s a good thing you even called me to ask before.”

Bai Ye chuckled and patted Jing Tian's head, then suddenly realized something and quickly withdrew his hand.

This seems a bit too intimate.

Although Bai Ye withdrew his action quickly, Jing Tian blushed almost imperceptibly, feeling both happy and disappointed.

Coming to her senses, Jing Tian remembered what Bai Ye had just said and couldn't help but mutter, "Isn't it because you're so popular lately? I've seen people online saying you're not including me."

If it weren't for the negative comments online, and some things I was too embarrassed to say to Bai Ye...

She really wouldn't make that call to Bai Ye.

Although she knew that Bai Ye wouldn't replace her.

Even if I become famous, I will never forget that you were the one who invested in my script!

The reason Jing Tian was chosen for the movie "Day and Night" is because she was the first to step forward when no one else was willing to invest in "With You," right?
At that time, I didn't know Jing Tian at all.

But Jing Tian was still willing to invest in herself.

Hearing Bai Ye say that, Jing Tian was actually a little embarrassed. At that time, she hadn't confirmed her schedule, and since the script seemed alright, she chose it with a try-it-out mentality.

I never expected that this drama would become one of my classic works.

"In that case, you can contact me if you need any investment opportunities in the future."

Jing Tian's face was flushed, and she felt something was off when she said those words.

This is practically the same as what Bai Ye said, which is almost like telling Bai Ye directly that he would take care of him.

Why did I suddenly say something like that?!

Jing Tian felt a little dizzy. Would Bai Ye misunderstand her?
Thinking of this, Jing Tian subconsciously glanced at Bai Ye, hoping to glean something from his eyes, but ultimately gave up.

There wasn't much to it, and Bai Ye's expression seemed normal.

The assistant standing next to her felt a pang of emotion after hearing Jing Tian's words.

I never imagined that my boss's charm would make a rich woman fall for him.

It seems that now, with just a word from Bai Ye, Jing Tian would probably be with him immediately. What a pity.
My boss is a free spirit, and he's still with Yang Mi.

The assistant knew perfectly well what was going on, but she didn't say anything. She wouldn't interfere in matters of the heart, mainly because she felt it wasn't her place to.

Besides, as long as Bai Ye doesn't do anything illegal or disorderly, you shouldn't say anything.

After all, he's their boss.

However, Lin Wan did tell Bai Ye about those illegal, disorderly, and immoral acts, saying that she should remind Bai Ye if necessary.

If this kind of thing is discovered, the damage to one's reputation will be far more serious than just leaving the entertainment industry.

There is still a huge sum of money to be repaid.

After all, those business agreements clearly stated that no negative publicity was allowed!
"I don't need to invest right now, but I will if I have the opportunity in the future. Tian Tian, ​​let's go inside first."

"OK."

Jing Tian and Bai Ye walked side by side. As they approached the inside, Jing Tian suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "Um... are you free recently? I'd like you to give me some pointers on my acting."

She hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help but say it directly.

The main problem is that she has recently suffered a huge blow.

Not only "How Long Will I Love U", but also several of her previous dramas, which Jing Tian had high hopes for, were ridiculed by the public.

She was mocked for not even having Geng Geng's original charm anymore.

This made Jing Tian hold her breath.

Now that Bai Ye has arrived, it's only natural that I should pour out my heart to him about my inner turmoil.

"No problem, for movies I definitely want to do well."

The investment in this movie wasn't huge, and right now he's not thinking about breaking even, he's thinking about making a profit!
The second movie can't be a flop.

After receiving Bai Ye's affirmative answer, Jing Tian breathed a sigh of relief. She actually knew that Bai Ye would not refuse her.

On Bai Ye's first day on set, Jing Tian couldn't wait to pull him aside to discuss the script.

The two sat on a rest chair in the corner of the set. Jing Tian flipped through the script, her brows furrowed slightly: "The character Lu Ming is so complicated. One moment he's a down-on-his-luck architect, and the next he's a future elite. I feel a lot of pressure acting opposite two different versions of you."

I listened to Bai Ye's analysis of the script and the characters while sitting next to him.

The more Jing Tian listened, the more uncomfortable she felt.

The main issue is that she also feels that this dual-timeline setting is problematic.
Have you seen the movie "Someday or One Day"?

"Uh-huh!"

Jing Tian nodded repeatedly; of course she had seen the show.

That show seems to be even more complex than this one, doesn't it?

"Bai Ye, don't you think Zhao Liying is more suitable for this movie than me?!"

Jing Tian felt the same way, as Bai Ye had previously worked with Zhao Liying.

Moreover, they are all related to time travel.

If it weren't for repaying this favor, the female lead would probably have chosen Zhao Liying, right?

Jing Tian was still somewhat self-aware.

Since being hit hard, Jing Tian no longer dared to have any bold ideas, thinking that she was a very good actress.

“Tian Tian has some confidence in herself. I think you’re great. Here you go.” Bai Ye smiled, took the script, and pointed to a line: “Actually, the key is in the details, in the actions and expressions. The habits of the past and the future are completely different.”

Pay attention to my body language, and you'll gradually get the hang of it.

Jing Tian's eyes lit up, and she mimicked Bai Ye's movements a few times before suddenly bursting out laughing: "Oh no, even picking up air looks like I'm stealing sweet potatoes!"

Bai Ye shrugged in agreement: "Then how about doing a comedy next time? The audience will definitely buy it."

The two burst into laughter, drawing frequent glances from the staff.

"Oh, and one more thing, you don't need to care what kind of role I play, because the role you play is different from the role I play."

Actually, you only need to pay attention to the changes in the early, middle, and late stages of the plot.

Don't worry too much, I'll take you with me!

Bai Ye could actually see through Jing Tian's thoughts.

She probably lacked some confidence in her acting skills.

No one on set would say anything about her, since Jing Tian has a powerful background.

But Jing Tian herself could feel how poorly she performed.

"Yes, yes, I'll be watching you then. Bai Ye, I don't want to lie to you. I recently saw some comments online saying my acting is bad, and it really hurt me."

I'm really determined to succeed right now, so you have to lead me to victory!

Jing Tian is a girl who can't keep secrets, especially in front of Bai Ye.

She felt that actors in the past were either very obsequious to her or distant, which resulted in Jing Tian not having many friends.

Jing Tian felt most comfortable when she was with Bai Ye, at least Bai Ye was neither afraid of her nor deliberately approached her.

This balanced way of getting along is something Jing Tian really likes.

Therefore, Jing Tian doesn't hide her feelings from Bai Ye.

"Tian Tian, ​​you should have more confidence in yourself. When it comes to accepting scripts, you can actually choose some that suit you. That might be more effective."

Bai Ye was aware of Jing Tian's situation.

After all, Jing Tian had been constantly complaining to him, and Bai Ye wasn't stupid. How could he not see what kind of situation Jing Tian was currently exhibiting?

In Bai Ye's opinion, all the dramas Jing Tian filmed seemed like money-grabbing schemes.

If I hadn't known about Lu Zheng's investment...

He even suspected that she was having an affair here.

"Yes, that's what I was thinking too, but it involves some large investments."

"Ahem~ I'm just saying, the specifics are up to you, don't overthink it!"

Bai Ye coughed lightly, knowing that it was wrong for him to ask Jing Tian to change things at this time.

Besides, she has her own number of steps. I can pull Jing Tian along to take pictures, but I can't interfere with Jing Tian.

"Bai Ye, I've remembered what you said. I'll tell Uncle Lu when I get back!"

Jing Tian took a deep breath and looked at Bai Ye with serious eyes. It was obvious that she had really remembered what Bai Ye said.

Actually, she herself didn't know what to do, since all she wanted to do was enter the entertainment industry.

As for how to enter the entertainment industry, Jing Tian was always clueless.

Anyway, Lu Zheng said which company he had invested in, who he had invited, and then asked me to film it, so I went.

As for other plans!?

She really didn't know!
However, since Bai Ye was the one who brought her to the peak of her career, Jing Tian instinctively had some confidence in Bai Ye.

After saying that, Jing Tian suddenly seemed to have mustered up her courage and asked, "Bai Ye, we've known each other for so long, and we still don't know if you're single or in a relationship!"
