The Actress is My Favorite

Chapter 53

After hearing Yun Feiwu’s request, Hua Zinan couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

She attached great importance to the movie “Track”, and it took half a year just to find an actor suitable for the role of Shu Jinyu, before she finally decided on Yun Feiwu.

Hua Zinan has extremely high requirements for actors. Before finding Yun Feiwu in person, Hua Zinan dug up and watched all her movies, and contacted some directors she had worked with. Although Yun Feiwu hasn’t auditioned yet, Hua Zinan believes that he has a good eye for people. Among actors of this age, Yun Feiwu must be the most suitable one.

That’s why Hua Zinan found the company in person, and even showed his sincerity to let Wutong invest, and let Yun Feiwu take over the drama.

As for the other leading actor… Hua Zinan has considered Xie Su. The two movie queens are on the same stage. No matter how small the audience is, the box office will always sell well after it is released.

It’s just that although Xie Su has good temperament and acting skills, her appearance is somewhat different from Ke Yu’s – it’s not that Xie Su is not good-looking, it’s just that she and Ke Yu’s naturally fragile, delicate, and attractive dodder flower looks are really not quite right. picture.

So until now, Hua Zinan has not decided on the second starring candidate.

At this moment, Yun Feiwu suddenly said that she had recommended actors. Of course Hua Zinan is willing to meet that person, but thinking of Yun Feiwu’s half-hour-long phone call just now, and her completely different attitude after the phone call, it’s hard for Hua Zinan not to doubt whether they, President Xia, want to Force an actor in.

“Teacher Hua?” Yun Feiwu shook her arm lightly, although he still had a coquettish smile, his eyes were clear.

Her gray eyes were like stars, without a trace of haze.

Hua Zinan froze for a moment, then shook his head self-deprecatingly.

She and Yun Feiwu have known each other for ten years. Although they didn’t communicate much during that time, she also knows how serious Yun Feiwu is about filming. Yun Feiwu will never put down his figure just to please his boss. Ask the director to join the group.

Since Yun Feiwu recommended that person, she must have a reason.

Besides, it’s just an audition.

“Okay, Yunmaomao, first tell me who is the actor you recommended to me?” Hua Zinan returned to her smile and asked.

“That’s right…” Yun Feiwu licked his lips, “Strictly speaking, she hasn’t acted before, but… Anyway, Teacher Hua, you’ll know when you see her. She won’t let you down. “

Hua Zinan was very interested: “That being said, I also want to see what kind of jade in the rough.”

Is it a newcomer that Wutong just dug? Never acted before, good talent?

If it is true, Hua Zinan is also looking forward to it.

Hua Zinan, who directs plays, likes the exhilaration of cooperating with veteran actors, but also likes the sense of accomplishment when carefully carving a piece of raw jade.

Soon, the door of the office was knocked open.

Tao Wei had been sitting on the corner of the sofa, but when she opened the door and saw someone coming, she immediately backed out.

Hua Zinan raised his head, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It was an overly pretty woman who knocked on the door…

Hua Zinan subconsciously felt that this person looked familiar, but couldn’t remember where he had seen him before.

After the woman entered the room, she bit her lip slightly, her apricot eyes were smudged with water vapor, flashing obvious nervousness and panic, and the deepest part of her eyes concealed a hint of agility and cunning just right.

Not to mention anything else, just those eyes are eight or nine points similar to Ke Yu.

Hua Zinan stood up suddenly, and happily walked forward a few steps, wanting to shake hands with the woman.

But in the next second, a slight smile appeared on the corner of the woman’s lips, and all the frailty and fear in her eyes were hidden, replaced by her usual arrogance and banter.

“Mr. Xia.” Yun Feiwu called softly from behind.

Only then did Hua Zinan realize why the woman in front of him seemed familiar—she turned out to be President Xia of Wutong.

Indeed, it is clearly the same face, but with two completely different expressions, there is a huge difference in temperament immediately, one in front and one in back, as if there are two people.

“Hello, Director Hua.” Xia Shutong smiled, and extended a hand to Hua Zinan.

Xia Shutong’s aura was so strong that she was almost engulfed by something invisible, which made Hua Zinan shake hands with her in a daze.

The two sat down on the sofa, and Hua Zinan realized it later: “What does Mr. Xia mean?”

“It’s like this, Hua Director.” Xia Shutong smiled lightly, “She should have told you just now that she wanted to recommend you a candidate for the second female lead. So…”

Xia Shutong paused, trying to suppress the tension in his heart, his expression and tone remained unchanged: “So what do you think about me?”

…

Xia Shutong had a long chat with Yun Feiwu just now.

When she was in the conference room, she had already read the first half of the script. Xia Shutong could feel that this film, even if the director was not Hua Zinan, would definitely be a rare good film.

Moreover, the producer explained in detail that the preliminary preparations for “Track” have been completed, except for the two leading actresses, all other actors have been finalized. Not to mention the old drama, even the rogue supporting role in the script was played by Peng An, the best actor of a certain Golden Osmanthus Festival.

What’s more…the flower director personally came to the door and asked Yun Feiwu to take over the film by name.

And Hua Dao gave Wutong an investment opportunity, which also showed his sincerity, and Wutong had no reason to refuse the investment. Yun Feiwu had no reason to reject the script.

But one second before signing, Xia Shutong hesitated inexplicably.

If Yun Feiwu took over “Track”, there would be a lot of benefits and no harm, but the problem is that this is a lily movie… Moreover, there are many large-scale plots in the script.

Moreover, Xia Shutong has heard that the flower guide has always been striving for perfection and pursuing truth in this regard.

Xia Shutong felt… a little sour.

Yun Feiwu has made so many films over the years since her debut, but so far… she has not taken any film of this scale, and even the kiss scene has always been borrowed.

It’s not that Yun Feiwu is unprofessional, it’s just that she made too many movies when she was a child, leaving a deep impression on the audience and directors.

Even though Yun Feiwu is almost twenty-four now, and she continues to make new breakthroughs in movies, but in the subconscious of many viewers, she is still the little girl back then.

It’s like an old father who cares about his daughter and doesn’t want her daughter to be abducted by a scumbag. They have grown up, but they just don’t want to see her fall in love. The audience and fans know that Yun Feiwu has grown up a long time ago, but if they really want to see her bold actions on the screen, they still feel uncomfortable.

Under the influence of this kind of subtle thinking, when directors see large-scale content in the script, they will hardly go to Yun Feiwu. Hanako Nan was the first one.

If Yun Feiwu took over “Track”…it would be a breakthrough for her.

But the more Xia Shutong thought about it, the more sour she felt. Even if it’s a movie, she’s… not very willing. But if Yun Feiwu is interested in trying, she will definitely choose to support it.

In the end, Xia Shutong walked out of the meeting room with this contradictory idea in mind, and called Yun Feiwu.

On the phone, Yun Feiwu told her that she really didn’t want to let this film go, but she really… didn’t want to make Xia Shutong jealous.

After discussing for a long time, the two of them came up with a bold idea at the same time.

Maybe…Xia Shutong, you can try it.

…

Hua Zinan’s smile was obviously slow: “Mr. Xia, you mean, you want to act in a movie?”

Xia Shutong nodded, the playfulness in her eyes disappeared, and her expression was serious.

“I’ve heard of a big boss who published books for himself, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone who wants to act in a movie. Besides, other actors can’t wait to be their own boss. Mr. Xia, you actually want to be an actor?” Hua Zinan smiled Shaking his head, “Mr. Xia, you are really ingenious.”

“To tell you the truth.” Xia Shutong looked at Hua Zinan seriously, but held Yun Feiwu tightly with one hand, “I have been interested in acting since I was a child. It’s a pity that due to the family environment, I never had the opportunity. Later, I took over the company, and I didn’t have time. But now, I have a little more free time than before, so I have the idea of trying.”

Hua Zinan’s smile was weak, but her attention was always on Xia Shutong’s face.

Xia Shutong’s appearance is indeed similar to Ke Yu’s, although his temperament is completely different… But when Hua Zinan saw Xia Shutong who knocked on the door for the first time, he especially saw her watery, weak, clear and hooked eyes. When looking into the eyes of people, Hua Zinan already had a voice in his heart:

This is Ke Yu!

It is the woman in the story who looks weak like a dodder, but actually hides her scheming, cruel and cold-blooded.

If this person is not President Wutong Xia, but a rookie actor as Hua Zinan thought, then she has already settled down.

But this person is Xia Shutong, the president of Wutong. The big boss suddenly put down the company and said that he would come to act. This…how strange, even after listening to Xia Shutong’s explanation, Hua Zinan still felt that something was wrong.

But Hua Zinan could tell that this Xia was always serious. For a moment, she couldn’t help being a little embarrassed.

While struggling, Hua Zinan suddenly saw Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu holding hands tightly.

The fingers of the two girls are slender and white, with well-defined joints, and they are of a good-looking type. At this time, they hold each other together, which also reveals a strange beauty.

Hua Zinan is the director, so her imagination is naturally not bad. Just from these two hands…she can vaguely feel that she has seen something.

At this time, Yun Feiwu’s fingers, inadvertently, gently scratched Xia Shutong’s palm.

The veins on the back of Xia Shutong’s hands bulged for a moment, and then disappeared in an instant.

From Hua Zinan’s point of view, they couldn’t see their little interaction, but she clearly felt an… ambiguous and obscure atmosphere.

It’s like the secret but tickling feeling when Shu Jinyu and Ke Yu held hands for the first time in “Track”.

Hua Zinan even had an illusion for a moment: If Yun Feiwu is Shu Jinyu, then the person next to her holding hands must be Ke Yu.

Hua Zinan looked away from their hands: “Try it.”

Xia Shutong raised an eyebrow in doubt.

Hua Zinan smiled: “Mr. Xia, what I mean is, it’s okay to have an audition here right now?”

Xia Shutong originally prepared a set of arguments to persuade Hua Zinan, but she did not expect that she would agree to the audition so quickly.

Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu clenched their fingers a little bit. She suppressed the joy in her eyes and nodded.

Hua Zinan opened the script and pointed: “For this part, Mr. Xia has never acted before, so let Yunyun take you to act. I will give you half an hour to prepare, is that okay?”

Under normal circumstances, actors will have a day or two to prepare before they participate in the audition. And half an hour of preparation time is too harsh for a newcomer who has no acting experience.

Xia Shutong did not hesitate, and nodded again: “Of course. On the contrary, I have to thank Hua Director for giving me this opportunity.”

“Then I’ll go out to get some fresh air, and I’ll be back in half an hour.” Hua Zinan smiled and clapped her hands, got up and left.

As soon as Hua Zinan left, Xia Shutong and Yun Feiwu took one side of the script and read it.

The audition part…is where Ke Yu and Shu Jinyu first met, less than a page long.

After watching it for a few minutes, Yun Feiwu gently tugged on La Xia Shutong’s sleeve: “Ruan Ruan, let’s try it?”

“En.” Xia Shutong nodded, but the tip of her tongue was unconsciously pressed against the palate because of nervousness.

It took less than thirty minutes from when she finished reading the script of “Track” to when she suddenly decided to act with Yun Feiwu.

During this period, she just chatted with Yun Feiwu for a while.

There is no analysis report, no plan, and no specific pros and cons in my mind.

Xia Shutong hadn’t made such a hasty decision for a long time, so she instinctively felt a little confused and nervous.

But after seeing Yun Feiwu’s soft and affectionate gray eyes, Xia Shutong felt that his whole body had settled down.

…

When Hua Zinan returned to the office again, both of them were ready.

She sat on the sofa and buried her head in the script.

In just half an hour, it was packed with dense comments, and the handwriting was obviously written by two people. Hua Zinan simply glanced at the content of the annotation, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he raised his head lightly: “Let’s start.”

…

This is Shu Jinyu’s first visit to Ke’s farm.

Everyone in the village said that the widow in the farm was an unruly and detested villain. In the mouths of elementary school children, Ke Yu is a devil who cannibalize people without spit out bones.

Therefore, Shu Jinyu was also a little scared. But even if she was afraid, she couldn’t stop the curiosity in her heart – no matter what, Ke Yu was just a woman in her mid-twenties, so how scary could it be?

So Shu Jinyu plucked up his courage, took a basket of preserved fruits, and walked along the country road all the way to the small courtyard next to the farm.

There is a tall locust tree outside the yard, with dense leaves and a gloomy look.

Shu Jinyu raised his head timidly, glanced at the shadow of the big locust tree, and retreated in his heart. But when he thought that everyone had come, he couldn’t just walk back, so Shu Jinyu cautiously walked out of the yard and knocked on the big iron gate.

Immediately there were several ferocious dog barks from inside, which scared Shu Jinyu back a few steps.

“Crackling…”

The door opened.

The moment Shu Jinyu saw the woman behind the door, his eyes suddenly froze.

She had imagined what Ke Yu would be like: a female butcher with big arms and round waist? Or a widow with sallow skin and tears all day long?

neither.

The woman’s frail and charming face, as well as her almond eyes shining with water, are so beautiful.

Shu Jinyu has lived in the city since she was a child, but she has never seen such a beautiful woman, as beautiful as a big star on TV.

Ke Yu obviously didn’t expect that the person who came to visit was actually a strange girl.

She mixed her hands and fingers together, slightly lowered her eyes, a little afraid to look at Shu Jinyu, but still said softly: “Hello?”

The woman’s appearance is fragile and pitiful, like a dodder flower that is about to break. For some reason, seeing a woman like this made Shu Jinyu feel less nervous.

“Hello, I’m Shu Jinyu. I’m a new support teacher from a small village. The school is on holiday today, so I just wanted to visit my neighbors.” Shu Jinyu picked up the basket and brought it to the woman. The preserved fruit bought in the market tastes very good.”

Ke Yu subconsciously took a small step back, bit his lip, looked up at Shu Jinyu, and took the basket hesitantly.

“Thank you. My name is Ke Yu.” The woman whispered.

Shu Jinyu felt that the woman’s voice was very soft, as if trembling in her throat, which made people feel inexplicably soft-hearted.

She originally thought that this visit would come to an end, but after a few seconds of hesitation, Ke Yu suddenly stretched out a weak hand and gently grabbed her wrist: “Come in and sit for a while?”

Ke Yu’s strength was very light, and Shu Jinyu could shake off her hand with a slight movement. But Shu Jinyu didn’t shake off, she just followed Ke Yu into the house inexplicably.

He sat down at the wooden table again.

Shu Jinyu looked around, and soon found that the interior of the house was very simple and clean, and it was indeed a place for single women.

After Ke Yu poured her a cup of tea, the timidity in Shu Jinyu’s eyes completely disappeared, replaced by the usual inquiry and curiosity: “Sister Ke, are you usually alone?”

Ke Yu slowly sat beside her, nodded: “Yeah.”

“Ah… Sister Ke, do you have any hobbies? Don’t you feel bored living alone in the mountains?”

“…I have no hobbies.” Ke Yu shook his head softly, a slightly bitter smile appeared on the corner of his lips, “I have stayed in the mountains for so many years… I am used to it.”

But Shu Jinyu was captivated by her smile.

Ke Yu Mingming smiled lightly, but it gave people a feeling of extreme bitterness.

Look at Ke Yu’s weak temperament, even her words are so soft, she must be bored and scared living alone in the mountains, right? Shu Jinyu couldn’t help feeling pity.

Then I will come to accompany Ke Yu more often in the future. Those people in the village are talking nonsense, stupid and ridiculous!

Shu Jinyu snorted angrily, smiled again, and took out the preserved fruit in the basket: “Sister Ke, it’s delicious, would you like to try it?”

Ke Yu stretched out his hand softly, took the preserved fruit bag, squeezed out a red dried fruit from inside, but did not put it into his own mouth, but handed it to Shu Jinyu’s lips softly.

Shu Jinyu was taken aback.

She didn’t expect that this weak and introverted woman would…feed herself?

This woman is so weak, but she always makes some strange and bold moves suddenly. Just like just now, holding Shu Jinyu’s wrist without warning, and now feeding her preserved fruit without warning.

Shu Jinyu looked into Ke Yu’s eyes at this time, and found that her eyes were still weak, but they were particularly attractive.

Shu Jinyu even felt that his throat was inexplicably itchy.

She unconsciously opened her lips, wanting to lick the piece of preserved fruit into her mouth with the tip of her tongue, but accidentally caught Ke Yu’s fingertips.

The audition itself should end here.

But Hua Zinan didn’t call to stop.

Xia Shutong supported the table with one hand, and raised the other hand weakly. Yun Feiwu held his fingertips in his mouth and licked them lightly.

A tingling sensation spread from the fingertips to every part of the body.

Even the hand supporting the table was a little soft.

What’s the plot behind it? Xia Shutong didn’t remember much, she only remembered this short paragraph just now.

She felt that the tip of Yun Feiwu’s tongue gently swayed against her fingertips again.

If it doesn’t end, she will definitely fall into Yun Feiwu’s arms.

Xia Shutong panicked, stepped back a little, and retracted her fingers. Yun Feiwu also blushed at this moment, and jumped up from the chair: “Sister Ke, yes, I’m sorry…”

Xia Shutong instinctively wanted to take over, but Hua Zinan said at this moment: “Stop!”

Xia Shutong lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips, and waited for a few seconds. When she raised her head again, she had already stepped out of Ke Yu’s role.

Hua Zinan walked forward with a smile. They had already shaken hands before, but at this moment she took the initiative to extend her hand again: “It’s a pity that Mr. Xia has been staying in the company instead of acting all these years.”

This is over.

Xia Shutong’s eyes undisguisedly revealed a gleam of pride.

At the same time, a hand stretched behind her back, signaling Yun Feiwu to take her hand and stand beside her.

Xia Shutong’s back was facing Yun Feiwu at this time, and Hua Zinan’s attention was all on Xia Shutong, so no one noticed that Yun Feiwu tilted his head, staring closely at Xia Shutong’s back, A confused light flickered in his eyes.

It wasn’t until Xia Shutong reached out to her that she gradually recovered her usual indifference, took a step forward, and held Xia Shutong’s finger.

…

In the end, Xia Shutong successfully signed a contract with the crew of “Track”, both as the lead actor and as an investor.

…It can be regarded as bringing funds into the group.

In the evening, Xia Shutong invited the crew of “Track” to have a meal, and when he and Yun Feiwu returned home, it was almost ten o’clock in the evening.

At the dinner table, Xia Shutong drank a little wine, but was not drunk.

After this meal, both of them were inexplicably excited. When he got home, Xia Shutong even took out a bottle of red wine from the storage cabinet, wanting to drink some more.

Yun Feiwu’s eyes were full, and he didn’t stop him.

While Xia Shutong was pouring the wine, Yun Feiwu hugged her arm softly, with a smile on his face.

She was a little curious… What would Xia Shutong be like after she got drunk this time.

This time, will… want to bite her?

Yun Feiwu touched his neck subconsciously, then gently unbuttoned his shirt, and touched his collarbone.

Xia Shutong next to her blushed slightly.

In my memory, after I was drunk once, I left marks on Yun Feiwu’s body. Then later… will it be?

Isn’t the drunk self vicious and domineering?

Although it may be broken after waking up the next day, Xia Shutong still feels a little bit looking forward to it.

Especially after seeing Yun Feiwu’s docile eyes, she felt her face burn.

The lounge was very quiet, and the ambiguous atmosphere continued to ferment.

Xia Shutong licked her lips, and was about to raise her glass when a ringing text message suddenly broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.

Xia Shutong took the phone, and when she saw who the sender was, her eyes immediately lowered, her expression dim.

Xia Yuansi finally took the bait.

He suddenly sent an audio file over.

Although he didn’t know what the content was, Xia Shutong could probably guess it. Anyway, it must have something to do with her and Yun Feiwu.

“Ruan Ruan?” Yun Feiwu tilted his head and moved closer.

“Maomao, I…” Xia Shutong wanted to get up, but when she panicked, her fingers trembled, but she accidentally pressed the play button.

The volume of the phone is not turned up, but the room is too quiet.

The first thing that comes out of the audio is a violent explosion, followed by a woman’s hoarse and painful voice.

The sound was weak and intermittent.

Both of them could hear it clearly, it was Xia Shutong’s voice.

“Maomao…I…” followed by a small laugh, full of self-deprecating meaning, “I…dead…deserved it.”

“You are different…you have to, live well…you have to stand in the sun…you have to…”

The voice behind is getting weaker and weaker.

until completely inaudible.
