Entertainment: A whirlwind marriage with a fairy-like mother at the start!

Yu Le stared at the stagehand moving the tracks not far away and let out a soft "Hmm?" through his nose.

"Just what?"

Yang Nuo seemed a little embarrassed and paused for a few seconds before speaking.

"Her mother wasn't satisfied with the contract terms we offered. She said another company had offered a higher price, and if Xianyu Entertainment could offer the same, she would give us priority."

Yang Nuo was also in a difficult position. On one side was her aunt, and on the other side was her boss who had been kind to her. She was caught in the middle and had a hard time.

She tried to persuade her aunt, but her aunt was very calculating, which is only natural; who wouldn't want to earn more?

However, Yu Le wouldn't give her a chance to bargain. Although he knew Yang Mi's potential, he still said it indifferently.

"Then forget it, let's not sign it."

Yang Nuo didn't seem surprised by the answer, and her tone became more relaxed. She knew her boss's personality well, but she still asked a question subconsciously.

"Understood, I'll reply to her right away. But boss, are you really not at all disappointed? Yang Mi has quite a lot of followers now!"

Yu Le looked at Liu Qianqian, who was touching up her makeup in the distance, and her gaze lingered for a second on that face full of collagen.

"I have plenty of ways to generate traffic."

"By the way, what did Tang Yan say?"

Yang Nuo's voice finally carried a genuine smile.

"Tang Yan has already signed. This girl is quite straightforward; she read the contract once and then pressed her fingerprint on it."

Yu Le leaned back in her chair, her body swaying slightly with the recliner.

"OK."

The phone hangs up.

Yang Nuo looked at her phone and sighed silently.

Hopefully, her aunt won't regret it later.

.....

Time flies, and the sweltering heat of August has arrived.

Summer in Hangzhou is like a giant steamer, with not a breath of wind in the air.

Filming for "Soulmate" has entered its final stages.

In the narrow alley, Liu Qianqian, dressed in a simple white shirt, walked slowly with her head down on the bluestone slabs.

Shu Chang sat on a moss-covered stone stool at the entrance of the alley, holding a nearly melted popsicle in her hand, looking at her with a smile.

This is the last set of shots in the entire film.

The two girls reunite in a vision many years later.

There were no lines, only intersecting footsteps and increasingly elongated shadows.

Zeng Guoxiang stared at the monitor, his palms sweating profusely.

"Watch out for the light and shadow! Wait for the clouds to pass!"

Two minutes later.

As if blessed by the heavens, a beam of golden sunlight pierced precisely through the clouds and slanted across the bluestone slabs.

Liu Qianqian happened to look up, and her gaze met Shu Chang's.

Neither of them laughed, but the bond that transcended life and death reached its peak at that moment.

"Card!"

Zeng Guoxiang suddenly stood up and held the script in his hand high.

"I hereby announce that filming for 'Soulmate' has wrapped!"

After a three-second silence, the film set erupted in cheers that could have blown the roof off.

The crew members tossed reflectors into the air, and the cameramen hugged each other, their faces covered in sweat and smiles.

Liu Qianqian stood there, her body stiffened for a moment, and then slowly relaxed.

She looked at Shu Chang, and Shu Chang looked at her too.

The two stepped forward at the same time and hugged each other tightly.

This hug was devoid of the scheming and intrigue of the drama, only the relief of three months of working together.

Yu Le walked over carrying a case of chilled cola.

He walked up to the two girls and stuffed a bottle into each of their arms.

"Alright, stop hugging. It's so hot, and you're still hugging so tightly. Your sweaty smell is going to seep into your body."

Liu Qianqian loosened her grip on the bottle, took the cola, and the remaining ice water on the bottle wet her palm.

She glared at Yu Le, but her eyes were still red.

"Dad, can't you say something touching? We've finished filming!"

Yu Le bit open a bottle of cola with his teeth, took a big gulp, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Touching lines? Yes, there are."

"I'll be cooking the wrap party tonight, and there'll be plenty of meat."

Liu Qianqian's eyes instantly lit up like two light bulbs.

"Really?! I want two bowls!"

Shu Chang, rubbing her slightly sore arms, joined in the fun.

"Me too! Boss, you can't be biased!"

Zeng Guoxiang leaned closer, his face showing a relieved exhaustion.

"Mr. Yu, I have confidence in this film..."

Yu Le patted the young director on the shoulder, his palm feeling the dampness on the other's clothes.

"Work hard on post-production. Whether this film wins an award depends on your editing skills."

That evening, at the restaurant where the film crew was staying.

Several large round tables were put together and filled with steaming dishes, all of which were Yu Le's masterpieces after two hours of hard work.

Zeng Guoxiang picked up his wine glass, stood up, and his voice was choked with emotion.

"Thank you, Mr. Yu, for this opportunity. Thank you to the two leading ladies for their wonderful performances. Thank you to every member of the staff for their hard work!"

"I'll drink this one, everyone else can help themselves!"

He drank it all in one gulp.

Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang, on the other hand, completely lacked the self-awareness expected of female celebrities.

The two of them each grabbed a spare rib and gnawed on it until their faces were covered in grease.

Teacher Huang Meiying sat beside them, looking at the two energetic juniors with a kind smile on her face.

"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."

Yu Le sat in the main seat, holding a cup of tea in his hand, slowly sipping it.

Looking at the group of laughing people, he felt a strange sense of accomplishment.

Filming for "Soulmate" has wrapped.

This masterpiece, which won two Golden Horse Awards for Best Actress in later generations, was brought to the screen by him in this time and space.

He turned his head and looked out the window.

In the night, Hengdian is illuminated by flashing neon lights.

After Liu Qianqian finished eating a piece of braised pork, she suddenly leaned close to Yu Le's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Dad, I heard Yang Mi went to Rong Xinda?"

Yu Le put down his teacup, his expression indifferent.

"Yes, her mother thinks there's more potential there."

Liu Qianqian pursed her lips.

"I think she'll regret it."

Yu Le raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Liu Qianqian picked up another large shrimp, peeling it while muttering to herself.

"Because... they don't have your braised pork over there!"
