Huayu: Nobody understands top celebrities better than me.

Chapter 100 The Bitterness of Jing Tian

Two more takes were missed.

Chen Duling barely managed to get through this scene.

Lin Yu was somewhat surprised to see the girl, who was blushing slightly and walking back to the lounge to start doodling.

Acting skills are not something that can be achieved through mere practice; quite the opposite.

Among the various schools of thought that are prevalent today, there is one that can help her quickly enter the industry: the experiential school.

Logically speaking, if he knew about this, Su Youpeng should also know.

But judging from Chen Duling's actions, she seems to be more like a performer who hasn't even started yet.

This is somewhat strange.

After all, as far as he knew, the cast and crew had been reading the script together for a month before he arrived.

There's no reason why Su Youpeng wouldn't notice Chen Duling's acting problems!

With this thought in mind, Lin Yu turned his gaze to the shed where the director and screenwriter were not far away.

However, the passing crowds and the opaque partition prevented him from seeing Su Youpeng's expression.

Due to Chen Duling's acting skills, the filming process was frighteningly slow.

However, Alec Su never lost his temper on set; on the contrary, he always had a smile on his face when he walked in front of others.

After a day of filming, Yang Chaoyue was packing up their belongings.

A man wearing a staff badge quickly walked towards Lin Yu.

"Teacher Lin Yu, wait a moment." The man called out from a distance, successfully attracting the attention of all the actors.

Lin Yu also looked up and looked at him with some surprise.

He recognized the man; he was Su Youpeng's assistant who always followed him around.

The man walked up to Lin Yu, took a few quick breaths, and said, "Teacher Lin Yu, Director Su wants to see you."

The man's tone was slightly weak, yet it sent a chill down Lin Yu's spine.

Recalling the outside world's evaluation of Su Youpeng in his previous life, he felt a chill run down his spine.

However, after a moment's thought, Lin Yu did not refuse.

Although his sexual orientation is a problem, he can't force himself to accept it given his current background.

Moreover, he never saw any strange expressions on Su Youpeng's face.

Besides, so what if he's gay? He'll see plenty of that after he's been reborn!

With this thought in mind, Lin Yu didn't hesitate: "Alright, then lead the way."

As Lin Yu and the man left, all the actors turned their attention away, except for one man with slightly darker skin who looked in the direction Lin Yu had left, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Upon arriving at the monitoring room where the director and screenwriter were, Lin Yu was quite surprised to see another person.

Chen Duling? What's she doing here? ...Oh, right.

Lin Yu quickly understood the purpose of being summoned.

As he approached, Su Youpeng and Rao Xueman both looked up. Rao Xueman nodded gently to him as a greeting.

Su Youpeng's face immediately broke into a smile: "You're here?"

"They're here... What's this?" Lin Yu looked at Chen Duling beside him with a perfectly measured expression of confusion.

Su Youpeng rubbed his forehead, his face finally losing its cheerful expression and showing a hint of worry.

Upon seeing this, Chen Duling's face flushed red and then turned pale.

To be honest, she did try her best, but she hadn't received any systematic training in acting.

"I found Duling online, and she only arrived a couple of days ago, so I haven't had much time to train her."

Su Youpeng spoke up, and what he said answered some of Lin Yu's questions.

"So I was thinking of asking you a favor, Xiaolin, to take care of Duling for me. After all, your acting skills are the best in the crew."

Hearing those self-aggrandizing words, Lin Yu found it somewhat amusing.

Before he could speak, Su Youpeng said again, "Don't worry, Xiao Lin, once the movie is finished, I'll add your name to the staff list. You could call yourself the acting director, what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu waved his hands repeatedly: "Yu, Director Su, you're too kind. I'm also part of the crew, and I've already said that you can come to me anytime if you have any problems!"

"No need to add a name or anything, just teach me how to act like Du Ling."

Lin Yu rejected Su Youpeng's suggestion.

The title of "director of acting" is just an empty name; you don't get any real benefits from it.

Rather than that, it's better to let him owe me a favor. He's in the entertainment industry, and he'll need those favors sooner or later!

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Yu and Chen Duling came out together.

As soon as they stepped outside, Yang Chaoyue and another woman quickly came to greet them.

"Mom..." Chen Duling's rather cold words finally showed emotion.

The woman first nodded to Lin Yu, then looked at her daughter with slight concern: "Is it another acting problem?"

Chen Duling nodded helplessly, a hint of other emotions showing on her usually aloof face.

"Did Director Su mention a solution?" Lin Hongying continued to ask.

She was well aware of her daughter's situation, which is why she agreed to let Chen Duling make movies.

Upon hearing this, Chen Duling slowly turned her gaze to Lin Yu.

As she looked in that direction, Lin Hongying's face also showed a hint of realization.

However, Lin Yu didn't linger in the face of the mother and daughter's gaze. He wasn't some beast of burden! How could he possibly work overtime for free?

And most importantly... as he walked out of the film set, the window of a Mercedes SUV parked on the side of the road quickly rolled down.

"Hi!!" A petite figure popped out of the car window, wearing sunglasses and a mask, and waved to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu smiled wryly. He was always puzzled whenever he saw Jing Tian looking so energetic.

Is this girl really not a young girl who has just turned eighteen?

Well... your blood and energy are quite good.

"How long have you been waiting?" Lin Yu asked gently.

Jing Tian waved her hand: "I just arrived too, but why are you out so late? I saw Guan Xiaotong and the others left a while ago."

"Director Su assigned me a task: to help an actor in the crew who knows absolutely nothing about acting learn to act." Lin Yu didn't try to hide anything.

"That...it really is quite difficult, but your acting is really good, and every time I act with you, there is a special sense of smoothness."

Jing Tian spoke, but Lin Yu smiled without saying a word.

The two chatted for a while in the car before quickly arriving at the restaurant that Jing Tian had booked in advance.

Yang Chaoyue, along with Jing Tian's staff, were temporarily sent away by the two.

As a result, the rather large private room in the restaurant was temporarily empty except for the two of them.

"I didn't expect you to be so efficient; you really haven't taken on any roles for so long." Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.

According to the information Yang Chaoyue found out for him, Jing Tian really hasn't been filming much lately, but has instead focused on fashion resources.

Upon hearing this, Jing Tian gave a bitter smile.

Actually, she didn't initially intend to follow Lin Yu's suggestion, since it seemed rather absurd no matter how you looked at it.

But as things stand, plans can't keep up with changes.

This change was due to her agent being poached.
