After four years of living alone after marrying far away, he went back to his parents' home and

Lan Yujuan arrived at the film set with coffee in her hands.

She instructed Zhang Fengjiao to help distribute coffee to everyone, and she herself carried a few cups of coffee, walking towards the director and assistant director to greet them first.

Lan Yujuan had been to the film set a few times and was relatively familiar with the environment, so she wasn't particularly curious about the actors.

After delivering coffee to the directors, she came back to help distribute coffee.

The director hasn't finished filming this scene yet; he'll have to wait a while before he has time to come over.

Since I'm just idling around anyway, I might as well help out with some work.

She was serving coffee when she suddenly heard Zhang Fengjiao next to her exclaim in surprise.

Although she deliberately lowered her voice, the hand that was tightly gripping her arm betrayed Zhang Fengjiao's feelings at that moment.

"Who's the male lead? Let me see..."

Seeing Zhang Fengjiao so excited, Lan Yujuan couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"Is today's male lead very famous?"

Good heavens, it's Lin Jue!

This startled even Lan Yujuan.

"The male lead for this drama is none other than Lin Jue!"

Good heavens! Right now, Lin Jue is a top star in the vertical screen short drama world, and is extremely popular.

Lan Yujuan had once heard the editor-in-chief mention that Lin Jue's appearance fee was 3 to 5 yuan per day, with no upper limit.

Moreover, he accepts this price on the condition that the script is one he likes.

If Lin Jue doesn't like the script or the role, he won't accept the role even if you add a zero to the appearance fee.

If he comes across a script he likes, he'd be willing to sign a revenue-sharing agreement even without payment.

At this moment, Lan Yujuan was both surprised and delighted, panicked and dizzy.

To her surprise, the drama managed to cast Lin Jue, something she never dared to dream of before.

She felt that as long as she could get actors with decent acting skills and good looks for her scripts, even if they were newcomers with few fans, she would be grateful.

However, what made her panic and dizzy was that she had written the script.

No one knew better than her what level this script was at.

She felt it was a bit unfair to hire such expensive actors.

More importantly, she wrote a low-budget drama. With such a large investment from the production team, will the drama be able to recoup its costs after airing?

If the show doesn't break even, her hopes for a share of the profits beyond the guaranteed minimum, plus a small royalty after the show goes live and recoups its costs, will be dashed...

Lan Yujuan stood there straight, gazing intently at the male and female leads in front of her, who were deeply immersed in their roles, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

She didn't even notice when the coffee next to her had run out.

Until Zhang Fengjiao, who was beside her, couldn't hold back any longer, she leaned closer, hid behind her shoulder, and whispered:

"Boss, since you're so familiar with the crew, can I go over and take a picture with the male lead after we finish filming this scene?"

Lan Yujuan suddenly snapped out of her daze, turned her head and looked at Zhang Fengjiao in surprise, "Huh?"

Zhang Fengjiao seemed afraid that she would misunderstand, so she quickly explained:

"Boss, don't worry, I definitely won't do anything reckless!"

"I'll definitely wait for Lin Jue to get dressed first before I go over to take a photo with her!"

Although a hint of heartache and regret was faintly visible on Zhang Fengjiao's face when she said these words.

But in order to achieve her goal, she had no choice but to settle for second best.

Lan Yujuan raised her hand and scratched her brow, smiling helplessly:

"Don't rush. After we finish filming this scene, I'll talk to the director and ask for the actors' opinions first, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fengjiao immediately nodded vigorously and grinned happily.

While filming was in full swing, Lan Yujuan and Zhang Fengjiao found a quiet corner where they wouldn't get in the way and watched and waited.

Lan Yujuan only knew that the director had asked her to come visit the set today, probably because he wanted to talk to her about something.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I still didn't quite understand what to talk about.

During these people's breaks, they overheard quite a bit of gossip on set.

Not far from the two, several extras were sitting in a group, with a supporting actor in the middle, chatting about gossip from the crew.

"I think this script is pretty average!"

"Who exactly is this screenwriter? How did they manage to get top-tier directors and leading actors in the industry to join forces and support them?"

The screenwriter, Lan Yujuan, was sitting right next to him. Upon hearing this, she became quite uneasy.

She was also very curious about this matter: what kind of magic could attract Lin Jue to this film crew?

At this moment, the "veteran" sitting among several extras began to show off.

"You wouldn't understand, would you?"

"I've heard of lead actors bringing their own funding to join other production teams."

"But our production team is different. Several big investors are eager to support this screenwriter and are throwing money at him."

"I heard it from the assistant director; the investors said that as long as the show is well-made, there will be enough funding..."
