Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

After finishing his makeup, Xu Heng arrived at the filming location.

Liu Changzhen naturally followed him, but she had already put the bracelet away and didn't show it off everywhere to avoid causing a bad influence.

After greeting the director, Li Dawei nodded back.

When Dong Jie arrived, she began to explain the scene to them. It was clear that the first scene to be filmed today was a scene between the two of them.

A little while later, the second female lead arrived, already made up and dressed in costume. She also had scenes to film today.

But when the second female lead arrived at the scene, everyone around was stunned!

"It's so beautiful!"

"Is this the little girl from yesterday?"

"She doesn't seem to be 15 years old yet!"

"..."

"..."

The surrounding staff members all exclaimed in admiration, and the actors all looked towards the second female lead.

Li Dawei frowned slightly, and Dong Jie was even more so.

"Our future junior sister really looks like she was born to be a star. And just based on that face, I bet the ratings will conservatively increase by 0.5 points!"

Xu Heng suddenly smiled and said.

Li Dawei glanced at him; this was the first time Xu Heng had tried to establish a relationship with him.

Moreover, Xu Heng's stance clearly shows his support for the second female lead.

So he thought about it and ultimately said nothing, which was tantamount to tacitly agreeing to the second female lead's new makeup and styling.

He's only responsible for making the show well; all the other power struggles and intrigues are none of his concern, as long as they don't interfere with filming.

Besides, just as Xu Heng said, this second female lead is their future junior sister, but Dong Jie is not a student of Beijing Film Academy, or even a professionally trained actress. She has nothing to do with him. Do you need to ask who he prefers more?

After explaining the scene, filming officially began. However, Dong Jie was clearly not in the right state of mind today, and a simple scene required several takes before it was finally filmed.

After that, Li Dawei started giving acting instructions to the second female lead, as the next scene was for her.

Producer Yu Jianming also came to the scene, obviously wanting to see the performance of the second female lead.

He didn't say anything about the second female lead's makeup, which was noticeably prettier than yesterday's.

It wasn't until they started rehearsing the scene that Li Dawei realized the second female lead was a complete novice who knew absolutely nothing.

You could even say that besides being pretty and having a temperament that suits the role, she has no other redeeming qualities!

They barely managed to finish explaining the script, but when filming officially started, it was a disaster!

Even if the requirements for a TV series are low, this level of acting is definitely unacceptable!

Not to mention that the crew no longer has an additional assistant director, and as the director, he can't keep giving the second female lead acting instructions like this forever!

"Producer, this won't do!"

Li Dawei approached You Jianming with a helpless expression.

Liu Yifei, who was in the middle of the scene, still looked bewildered, while her mother, Liu Xiaoli, comforted her from the side.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

You Jianming frowned as well; at this point, it was impossible to replace him.

"Why don't we get her an assistant director, or find someone to teach her acting?"

Li Dawei made the suggestion.

You Jianming considered it for a moment and nodded: "Then I'll find someone from the company."

His Qiangshi Film and Television Company has many signed actors, among whom Xiu Qing, the best actor, is currently not filming.

Li Dawei then suggested, "No need for all that trouble, let Xu Heng handle it. He spoke up for the second female lead before, about today's makeup!"

He admired Xu Heng's acting skills, but he hadn't forgotten how Xu Heng hadn't given him any face during the audition, so how could he let Xu Heng have it easy?

"Is he capable? And won't it interfere with filming?"

You Jianming asked, not paying attention to Xu Heng speaking up for the second female lead.

"His acting is fine, and he prepares very thoroughly for each scene. He's obviously done a lot of preparation behind the scenes. I don't even have much to say to him now when I'm giving him acting pointers, so it shouldn't have any impact!"

Li Dawei explained.

"Alright, let him give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll call someone else."

You Jianming nodded.

Xiu Qing is currently the top male star in his company, so it's indeed a bit inappropriate to call him over to give acting advice to a newcomer.

So Li Dawei called Xu Heng over and told him about it.

Xu Heng instinctively wanted to refuse, but then a thought struck him, and he reluctantly agreed in the end.

He also remembered that the person who taught Liu Yifei acting in his previous life was Xiu Qing, the actor who played Murong Fu in the Zhang Dahuzi version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils". Xiu Qing had also given Liu Yifei guidance on acting skills in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

He even said in an interview that he voluntarily requested the removal of intimate scenes with Liu Yifei in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

But Liu Yifei was only 15 years old when she filmed "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", so it's no wonder her mother would have agreed to let her film intimate scenes.

The future of the previous life was even revealed, showing that Xiu Qing not only had an affair with his female assistant, but also dragged Liu Yifei into it. It was said that he had the opportunity to do *that* with Liu Yifei back then, probably because he had been bragging so much that he even believed it himself!

In addition, Xiu Qing is currently an actor under Qiangshi Film Industry, which is You Jianming's company.

You Jianming had previously wanted to sign him, but he refused. You Jianming didn't force him, but he didn't know if it was the system's doing.

And then there's Dong Jie, who, like him, is not signed with any agency.

"Teacher Xu, I'll be troubling you with the rest..."

Upon learning that the male lead of the drama would be personally instructing her daughter on acting, Liu Xiaoli felt it would be impolite to refuse and brought her daughter to Xu Heng's place.

Liu Yifei looked at Xu Heng openly and generously: "Thank you for reminding me yesterday!"

Her mother had already told her about what happened yesterday.

At the same time, she thought Xu Heng was very handsome, and he was also her future senior. Moreover, he was able to pass the audition and win the male lead role in this drama as a newcomer, so she had a pretty good impression of Xu Heng.

Xu Heng's acting skills are also very impressive. She watched it from the side and was very impressed.

Moreover, she was very satisfied with her makeup today, which was much prettier than yesterday, and naturally felt very grateful to Xu Heng.

But that's all; I wasn't particularly curious about Xu Heng.

"This is my first drama, and I hope it does well; that would benefit me too!"

Xu Heng's words were pointed.

Liu Xiaoli nodded, finally understanding why Xu Heng had reminded her yesterday.

In her opinion, spending tens of thousands of yuan to make her daughter look better in the drama is definitely a great deal.

Besides, their daughters receive acting fees, so they don't need to pay out of their own pockets.

Then Xu Heng began to teach Liu Yifei how to act, explaining it in great detail and with great patience.

However, he did this not to curry favor with the "Fairy Sister," nor to leave a good impression on her, but for other purposes...
