Huayu Tianxian: This director is such a hypocrite!

mid-December.

The verbal battle between Ye Chong and Lu Chuan escalated, but it remained a small-scale conflict.

During this period in April this year, several news items firmly dominated the trending topics:

1. Zero Band is having a blast!

2. Rao Ying sues Zhao Zhongxiang

3. Beckham's sex scandal

4. Tu Honggang was involved in prostitution and drug use.

5. Michael appears in court for trial

This was unexpected for Ye Chong, who had thought the free publicity would continue.

On the set of "The Unknown," sex scandals and pedophilia are not the current focus of discussion.

That morning, Ye Chong was directing the rooftop scene, while downstairs in the dressing room, some crew members were having a wild chatter.

"Hey, did you hear?"

"Director Ye's unspoken rules, everyone knows that. I heard Zhang Yu went into the room at eight and didn't come out until ten!"

"What's so special about that? I heard Tu Da went in with his head held high and came out clutching his backside!"

"Really!" Assistant Xiao Hong's eyes widened, and a blush crept onto her face.

"How could it be fake? Look at Tu, the production assistant, with his scarred face and missing a front tooth, how could he possibly bite him?"

Little Red blinked her big eyes rapidly: "Maybe it's because their faces are covered?"

The makeup artist next to her looked at her in amazement: "Your imagination..."

"So Yang Mi has nothing to say now, right? That night at nine o'clock, she slammed the door and left Director Ye's room. Everyone heard it!"

"As for actresses, Ye Chongchong is capable of sleeping with even men, let alone actresses. Haven't you heard that saying? Resources are given privately, and the sheets will be worn through!"

"This is too...indiscriminate. By the way, who is Ye Chongchong?"

"He can just go for it no matter who it is!"

"Anyone, please?" Xiao Hong bit her lip lightly, her cheeks turning completely red like a sunset.

……

On the top floor, after filming a scene, while the actors were touching up their makeup, Ye Chong glanced at the gloomy sky and stepped over to Pan Binlong.

"It's going to rain soon. We've been waiting for this scene for two days. I hope you'll give it your all for the personality switching scene this afternoon. Thank you for your hard work."

Pan Binlong nodded without saying anything.

Being an actor means enduring hardship.

After explaining the matter, Ye Chong squatted down in front of Chen Zhixi.

"So, Sister hope, have you grasped the charm of this character?"

Chen Zhixi, wearing a coat and sitting in a wheelchair, was having her makeup done by a makeup artist. Upon hearing this, she just gave him a disgusted look.

"Instead of idly coming to show concern for me, I think you should examine your own problems."

Ye Chong's brows furrowed deeply. "What's wrong with me?"

"Unspoken rules, bro! There's all sorts of gossip and shady dealings on set, didn't you notice? Is this also part of your persona building? The Queen of Unspoken Rules? Ye Chongchong?"

Ye Chong's face darkened.

Things indeed took the worst possible turn.

He doesn't want to do this unless absolutely necessary!

The system's original intention was to train me to become a serious director who could resist temptation, but how the hell am I supposed to resist if there's no temptation?

However, it's not all bad news. Once the reputation spreads, they won't need to actively invite you to make new movies.

"Never mind that, I have my own plans. Reputation is nothing to me, it means absolutely nothing!"

Chen Zhixi frowned: "What you're saying, using your own words, is... giving up!"

"So what if you give up? It's okay. Just focus on filming. The next twenty days will be tough, so don't get distracted."

"Um……"

Chen Zhixi's eyelids trembled slightly.

Are you really okay?

This is a director's reputation!

In the afternoon, the rain finally fell on "The Unknowns," and everyone on the crew was on tenterhooks.

On the rooftop, Ye Chong was having a detailed conversation with the actors.

"Zhang Yu, this is your chance to shine. This is your hometown, your home turf. It's all up to you now."

"Snap—"

Ye Chong offered a few words of encouragement and then patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder.

[Acting Card D successfully used!]

He then patted Chen Zhixi and Pan Binlong on the shoulder in the same manner.

At first, they didn't feel anything, but as soon as the clapperboard sounded, all three of them jolted.

They suddenly had a feeling: as if they had truly become the characters.

They don't know how much their acting skills have improved, but they act more naturally!

"This is love!"

"I love you, Mom, for selling twisted dough sticks!"

"Don't you know what she lives in that Dream Paris?"

In one sentence, he revealed the last vestige of brotherhood's dignity and shattered the last vestige of their self-deception.

Ye Chong breathed a long sigh of relief in front of the monitor.

It was worth using three acting cards; this time, we should be able to get it right in one take!

"Achoo!"

"Director Ye, while you're focused on filming, you should also take better care of your health."

"Thank you for your concern, Producer Lan."

After more than a month of honesty, Ye Chong finally won over Lan Sheng.

He saw the shining qualities in this young man. Unlike other behind-the-scenes workers, Producer Lan was a middle-aged man with a family.

Ye Chong has dark circles under his eyes every day and spends his rest time studying scripts. How could he possibly have the energy to engage in unethical practices?

Not to mention those bizarre rumors: daily sexual harassment, not even sparing men!

He didn't see any lubricant in Ye Chong's room either.

"Achoo!"

Ye Chong sneezed again, took out a tissue to blow his nose, and then took out his phone to check the news online.

He checks it every day. Although the "Gun-Seeking War" topic failed to break into the top ten, the flame war continues.

Lu Chuan sought out several "old fogies" from literary associations to diss him, and his fans even stormed Tianya Forum to bombard him with criticism.

Ye Chong then changed his ID to "The Dream of 1.4 Billion Girls" and started arguing with netizens.

"What is this?"

He suddenly saw the news about Sisi.

[Behind-the-scenes glimpses of the Legend of Sword and Fairy set! Love blossomed on set, and their on-screen romance became real? #LiuYifei# & #HuGe#]

"What the hell is this?!"

Ye Chong slammed his phone shut, then opened the flip cover again and glanced at it once more; the news headline hadn't disappeared.

"Is this a rumor? When did it start?"

He frowned, suddenly feeling a surge of unease.

I wanted to call her, but I was afraid she was filming, and I couldn't leave the film crew.

"Director Ye?"

The door opened, and Tu Da walked in, covered in water stains.

"Director Ye, shouldn't we cut it?"

Ye Chong looked at the monitor and, sure enough, the actors had already stopped moving.

"Click—"

"Actors take a break, props are being packed up."

Ye Chong put aside his inner turmoil and carefully examined the film he had just seen.

Ten minutes later, he picked up the walkie-talkie again.

"That's enough, achoo! Let's call it a day!"

"Director Ye, please don't catch a cold! You're the backbone of the crew!"

Ye Chong let out a muffled "hmm" through his nose, then got up and started packing his things.

It was 8 p.m., at the same windowsill.

Today, I can no longer smell the barbecue skewers downstairs, and Xuanhemen is as bland as the Yellow Crane Tower.

Sisi, she...

This must be Tangren's way of promoting themselves. Oh well, it's better to confirm it verbally.

"Beep beep beep..."

He couldn't help but call anyway.

"Feed?"

A sweet, charming voice rang out, instantly calming Ye Chong's agitation.

"Sissi, there are rumors circulating online about you and Brother Hu, is it true?"

There was a moment of silence on the phone before Yifei's voice came through.

"Really!"
