Huayu 2007: Starting with Super Boy!

"Who is it?" Zhang Hanyun asked as she came out of the bathroom.

"Irrelevant!"

Seeing that Wang Yihan didn't bring it up, Zhang Hanyun wisely refrained from asking further.

Instead, they excitedly began to pretend to be themselves.

"Are you going out?" Wang Yihan asked.

"Mmm." Zhang Hanyun didn't hide her purpose and said frankly, "I want to go to the film set and see how you film up close."

"Is it okay?" Zhang Hanyun said coquettishly, pulling his hand.

hiss~

A jolt of electricity shot through his spine, leaving his entire body tingling.

"Alright, just be careful then, there are a lot of people and eyes on the set," Wang Yihan advised.

"Okay, I know." Zhang Hanyun was overjoyed.

8 a.m.

Crew.

"Su Xing!" Wang Yihan called out to Su Xing, who had arrived late. Seeing his dark circles under his eyes, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. "What the hell are you doing? How did you end up looking like this?"

Su Xing didn't respond, but Yu Haoming, who was next to him, spoke first: "Brother Han, Su Xing has been working very hard lately. After work, he's been taking acting lessons with me."

"Oh, really?" Wang Yihan couldn't help but look at him with newfound respect.

I thought he was out fooling around, but it turns out he was doing something important.

It seems I wronged him.

No wonder...that person came knocking on my door.

Has he reformed?

"Of course, what else do you think I went to do?" Su Xing said, her eyes full of grievance.

"Hehe... It's okay, well done! Keep it up." Wang Yihan gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

Don't say it.

Even last-minute preparation can be effective.

Su Xing's efforts over the past few days have not been in vain.

He showed significant improvement during today's shoot, and even the director couldn't help but praise him.

He was extremely proud of himself.

He even winked at Wang Yihan.

Because several key actors worked very hard and made remarkable progress, the director sped up the filming process.

Originally, we could only shoot 300 shots a day, but now we can almost double that to 600.

That's equivalent to almost half an episode of a TV series. (A typical 45-minute TV series episode has around 800-1000 shots.)

According to the script, there are a total of 36 episodes of Meteor Shower.

It only takes about 40 days, or a month and a half, to complete the filming.

That's incredibly fast.

Of course, they can't compare to the quick-draw guns of Hong Kong Island.

But it won't slow down much.

The speed has increased.

But there is a price to pay.

What is the price?

Of course, they're actors.

Previously, filming could be completed in seven or eight hours a day.

It's almost impossible to get around 12 or 13 hours a day now.

It was a bit tough.

But everyone also found joy amidst the hardship.

Because the director painted a very big picture for them.

"The day the TV series airs on Hunan TV will be the day your H4 becomes a nationwide sensation," Director Shen Yi said confidently.

"Really? Director?" Su Xing was most interested in this.

Being a celebrity or something, Thai pants are hot!

Yu Haoming is also full of expectations.

Only Wei Chen...emm...he's still struggling with his decision, undecided whether to become a pure singer or to pursue both acting and singing.

Seeing his struggling expression, Wang Yihan patted him on the shoulder: "Just follow your heart. Even if you make the wrong choice, you won't regret it later, right?"

"Besides, as long as acting doesn't affect your singing career, there's nothing wrong with treating it as a side job, right?"

Wei Chen suddenly realized, "Thank you, Brother Han, I understand!"

Wang Yihan was also very happy to see that he was no longer obsessing over things.

To be honest, the quality of this year's Super Boy contestants is really high.

They are much better than the idols who debuted through those flashy talent shows in the future.

Perhaps... they all came from humble backgrounds?

Therefore, they cherish hard-won opportunities and understand that only strength can earn respect.

So whether they choose to continue singing or switch to acting, they all work hard to hone their skills and solidify their basic abilities, making them no less capable than those actors with formal training.

Filming is proceeding smoothly.

A week later.

July 7.6th, Friday.

The seventh round of the Super Boy national finals, the 4-to-3 elimination round, has begun.

The four people asked for leave and left the film crew.

Wang Yihan and Su Xing are contestants.

Wei Chen and Yu Haoming went to the scene to support the two.

They also called on their fans to vote for the two of them.

Having filmed together for so long, the four of them have grown increasingly close.

They have already formed a small group among the 13 contestants of Super Boy.

Zhang Hanyun flew to Changsha with the group.

Because Hunan TV finally relented and agreed to let her perform.

Is it probably to try and secure a supplementary contract for the champion?

Wang Yihan secretly speculated.

Indeed, among Chen Chusheng, Su Xing, and himself, he felt that the other party had a higher opinion of him.

This cast a shadow over his journey to Star City.

Star City.

The arrival gate was packed with people.

Fans were everywhere at the airport, holding up support signs and cheering in unison.

"What's going on? Who leaked our itinerary?" Su Xing asked, puzzled.

He's happy to get up close and personal with his fans, but there are just too many of them!

When will I be able to sign the autograph?

Will we be able to get there in time?

Don't be late for the show recording, that would be ridiculous.

Because it's a live stream.

If that happens, we'll lose face nationwide.

Wang Yihan shrugged. "Who else could it be?"

Yu Haoming revealed the secret: "It must be an inside source at Hunan TV."

Wei Chen gloated, "Looks like you two don't need to compete tonight. Let Chen Chusheng and Zhang Jie take the championship and runner-up spots."

Su Xing wrapped her arms around his neck, annoyed. "Stop gloating and come up with a solution for me."

Wei Chen shrugged: "What can I, a top-six contestant, do?"

"Hey...judging from your tone, you're still pretty unconvinced, huh?" Su Xing teased him.

Wei Chen said bluntly, "What's there to be dissatisfied about? Your top four rankings are well-deserved; I can't beat any of you."

Seeing the two of them bickering, Wang Yihan reached out to stop them: "Alright, what time is it? Stop fooling around here. Let's get through this problem first."

"Where are the staff from Hunan TV? Isn't anyone coming out to resolve this?" Wang Yihan looked around in confusion.

"Yes, they're stuck outside," Yu Haoming revealed the message he had just received.

"This is truly... like lifting a brick to drop it on one's own foot. This is such a disgraceful thing to do. I'll see how they explain it to the station later."

Wang Yihan was also a little annoyed.

How come such a big TV station is full of slackers?

We were stuck in traffic for almost half an hour.

Teacher He arrived late.

After much persuasion and pleading with the fans at the scene, he finally managed to get everyone out of the predicament.

The crowd gradually dispersed.

Teacher He clasped his hands together and said, "I'm so sorry. It was a mistake caused by some temporary workers at the station acting on their own initiative. Don't worry, the station will definitely give you an explanation."

What a temporary worker...

What else can Wang Yihan say?

"You must all be starving. I brought some food, you can eat it on the way," Teacher He said thoughtfully.

This considerate behavior gradually calmed everyone's anger.

The group boarded the car one after another and headed towards the Broadcasting Building.

Tonight, the top three contestants of Super Boy will be determined.
