Chapter 133

Jing Yi picked up her coffee and looked at the restless Shen Xi, asking curiously, "You didn\'t eat much on the plane, aren\'t you hungry?"

At this moment, Shen Xi was completely captivated by the filming outside. This was Jing Zejun filming on location! And the male lead was a famous actor who liked her! What kind of real-life entertainment industry novel was this?

How could she possibly focus on afternoon tea here?

Jing Yi put down her coffee and asked her assistant, "Qiqi, is it convenient to take us to watch now?" She wanted to enjoy her food in peace, but this person\'s restless demeanor was impossible to ignore.

"Of course, I\'ll take you over now," the assistant said, leading the two towards the outside.

At the stairway entrance to the filming location, a crowd had gathered. In the narrow passage, cameras were steadily positioned at various angles, and sound technicians were closely holding microphones, capturing every subtle sound.

The set was very quiet, with only the actors\' voices delivering lines. Jing Yi and Shen Xi couldn\'t help but soften their breathing.

The protagonists of this scene didn\'t seem to be Wen Qingyan and Jing Zejun, as the two were standing to the side while a female actress stood in front of the cameras.

Was she playing a crazed student?

Jing Yi hadn\'t read their script either, so she could only guess the character from the actress\'s performance.

Not far from where the crowd had gathered sat the director of this production, frowning as he watched the monitor. He didn\'t seem very satisfied.

"Cut! The feeling\'s not right! Your movements aren\'t vicious enough! Again!"

For the next ten minutes or so, Jing Yi constantly heard the director\'s various expressions of dissatisfaction.

"Again!"

"Again!"

"How many times do I have to say the expression is wrong! Do you even know how to act? If you can\'t act, give up the role!"

The actress\'s eyes were starting to redden. Jing Yi and Shen Xi huddled together, whispering, "This director is so fierce."

"Jun Jun said she was scolded several times when she was filming too."

Jing Yi\'s gaze cautiously moved towards the director. They didn\'t dare say more, lest the director overhear and they catch him at a bad moment.

In the end, the actress failed to successfully film the scene, and the director was already arranging for the Assistant Director to find a replacement.

They had to start filming Wen Qingyan and Jing Zejun\'s scenes for now.

Shen Xi and Jing Yi sat to the side, watching intently. The director, looking at the monitor, still frowned. It wasn\'t that the lead actors were bad, but he was still thinking about the missing crucial character.

Although described as the protagonist of a short story arc, the character only appeared in two episodes, with more emphasis on environment and plot to portray this character.

But these one or two episodes of screen time were extremely important. If they couldn\'t accurately portray the character, all the previous build-up would be wasted!

The Assistant Director quickly brought the list to the director, who was flipping through it when he inadvertently noticed Jing Yi sitting opposite.

His gaze lingered for a few seconds; she looked familiar.

"Who\'s that?"

The Assistant Director looked over, "That\'s Zejun\'s sister, the other young lady of the Jing family, Jing Yi. The one beside her seems to be her friend. They\'ve come to visit Zejun on set."

I wonder if her physical skills could add to this character?

The director suddenly became interested in Jing Yi. He had seen Jing Yi\'s trending topics and had already begun to imagine how well Jing Yi would fit the role.

He put down the list, "Go ask her if she\'s willing to play the role from just now."

The Assistant Director opened his mouth, thinking, "You really want to bring in all the Jing family\'s young ladies, don\'t you?"

He could understand Jing Zejun acting, as it was her profession, but the Jing family\'s younger daughter wasn\'t in the entertainment industry. Why would she cooperate?

The Assistant Director was somewhat troubled and felt compelled to remind him, "If she acts, how will we calculate her payment?" She was the Jing family\'s daughter after all. They could handle one Jing Zejun because she had an agent and a company.

How would they arrange for another one?

"Just ask her first," the director waved his hand, uninterested in these issues. It seemed that as long as Jing Yi agreed, any conditions could be met.

The Assistant Director steeled himself and turned to walk towards Jing Yi.

"Miss Jing"

Jing Yi looked at the approaching person, stood up to greet him, feeling a bit guilty inside.

Could it be that what she and Xixi just said was really overheard?

The Assistant Director put on a smiling face, appearing amiable, "Please, sit down. I wanted to ask how you think your sister and the others are doing with the filming?"

Jing Yi was a bit confused but still responded with a smile, "It\'s quite good, quite interesting." If the director wasn\'t so fierce, it would probably be more interesting. Now it was just listening to the director scold people the whole time.

The Assistant Director\'s smile deepened, "It\'s like this, I wanted to ask if you\'d be interested in making a cameo as the character from just now?"

Jing Yi\'s delicate brows furrowed, even more confused. She pointed at herself, "Me? Make a cameo?" The Assistant Director nodded with a smile, "Yes, if you\'re interested, you could give it a try. It would be an experience, right?"

The Assistant Director could only approach from the angle of curiosity. He sincerely hoped Jing Yi was genuinely interested in acting, otherwise he couldn\'t exactly use payment to attract her!

Meanwhile, Jing Zejun had just finished filming a scene and, seeing the Assistant Director standing in front of Jing Yi, walked over.

"Yi Yi, is something wrong?"

The Assistant Director, seeing a professional had arrived, felt a bit more at ease and relayed the director\'s words to Jing Zejun.

"A cameo?"

Jing Zejun recalled the character\'s attributes and understood more. Seeing the confusion in Jing Yi\'s eyes, she explained, "The director probably knows you do sanda, so you might be suitable for this role."

Jing Zejun briefly explained the character\'s personality and background to Jing Yi, letting her consider comprehensively, but assured her that there would be no loss if she didn\'t accept.

The role the previous actress was playing was for another subplot in the drama called "Missing Classmate".

The male and female leads enter another level of the school and discover classmates disappearing one by one, eventually identifying the culprit as the character played by the actress.

Aliali: 673eba99c4f3f33ac4ee9836The director had also walked over by now. Jing Yi glanced at him carefully, "I can give it a try, but if I\'m not suitable, can you let me go directly?"

She did want to try, but the image of the director scolding people earlier was still echoing in her mind.

The director\'s expression stiffened. Had he been too fierce earlier?

The Assistant Director also secretly glanced up at the director. See? She was indeed frightened.

The director coughed lightly, "Don\'t worry, just treat it like you\'re playing a role-playing game. Also, your friend can make a cameo too." Of course, mainly in an insignificant \'sidekick\' role.

Besides, Jing Yi was just brought in temporarily, he wasn\'t so ruthless as to demand she possess superb acting skills.

Shen Xi was a bit excited, not expecting to be included.

Jing Yi\'s gaze moved to Jing Zejun, her eyes full of: He said he won\'t scold people! Back me up!

Jing Zejun looked at her amusedly and nodded.

Only then did Jing Yi feel reassured, "Then I\'ll give it a try."
