Yan Ruoxue: "Then I'll have to trouble you all."
Wu Bin called out a round, and immediately five sturdy trainees stepped onto the stage. After putting on their protective gear, they began to surround Ye Tian, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Ye Tian stood in place, striking a pose, his senses alert to all directions. Suddenly, he shifted slightly, knocking aside a person who kicked at him.
The others also attacked. Ye Tian's footwork was nimble, and within a few moves, he had swept two people to the ground. The remaining few were no match for him and were quickly subdued.
The entire display was spectacular. Hu Liuyun laughed heartily, "This is the feeling we want! President Yan, we'll start planning this modern wuxia film immediately and aim to start shooting next month!"
Yan Ruoxue smiled, "Director Hu, no problem. However, could we proceed with the romance drama we discussed earlier? We've been preparing for it for a long time."
Hu Liuyun replied, "No problem. But I have one condition: there's a male supporting role who is very skilled in fighting, right? Mr. Ye must play this role."
Yan Ruoxue said, "No problem."
Ye Tian shook hands with the trainees and then jumped off the stage, knowing his task for the day was complete.
After seeing Hu Liuyun off, Yan Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great, we've finally gotten through this hurdle."
Ye Tian looked at her, "You're not really going to make me act in a TV show, are you?"
Yan Ruoxue chuckled, "You're the male second lead, your total screen time won't exceed three hours. Don't worry, we can finish all your scenes in a day."
Ye Tian was not a professional actor and was a bit apprehensive about acting, saying, "Let's forget it, I don't know how to act."
Yan Ruoxue swayed his arm, pleading, "Please help me out. Director Hu agreed to let you act, and if you don't participate, he might not direct this drama."
Ye Tian sighed, "Alright."
Yan Ruoxue smiled sweetly, "Thank you, darling. Let's head to the auction site now."
The filming location was a film base in western Beijing. All the actors were in place, and Hu Liuyun had also rushed over.
When Ye Tian arrived, Hu Liuyun was communicating with the main actors. Seeing Ye Tian, Hu Liuyun put down the script in his hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, please sit down. Let's discuss the script together."
Ye Tian didn't understand scripts, so he said, "You all talk, I'll walk around."
Hu Liuyun suddenly remembered something and said, "Mr. Ye, shall we try out a scene first?"
Yan Ruoxue smiled, "Trying it out is good. I recall the male second lead is a cold and aloof character, he doesn't need much expression, just needs to appear cool."
Ye Tian thought to himself, "What's so difficult about being cool?" He nodded and cooperated fully, starting the trial scene.
He changed into a white suit and had a scene with the female second lead where they disliked each other.
Ye Tian was indeed very cool. He glanced indifferently at the female second lead, a beautiful woman with a delicate appearance and a petite, exquisite figure.
After the scene, the female second lead was astonished by Ye Tian's cold demeanor. She looked at him with a hint of fear, which inadvertently elevated her own acting.
"Excellent!" Hu Liuyun gave a thumbs-up. "I think we should film all of Mr. Ye's scenes today."
Thus, the trial scene turned into the actual filming. Although Ye Tian was not a professional actor, his understanding of the character's psychology was very accurate, so he basically got it in one take.
It was past nine in the evening, and he had finished all his scenes in one go. His scenes were mainly with the female second lead, and the scenes were not many, so the progress was relatively smooth.
After filming, Ye Tian and Yan Ruoxue drove home.
Halfway home, they encountered a severe traffic jam ahead.
Ye Tian looked out and saw that it was likely a traffic accident. He noticed a restaurant nearby and said, "Ruoxue, turn the car in, let's go get something to eat."
Although he had eaten a boxed lunch on set, Ye Tian hadn't eaten much, and the boxed lunch wasn't very tasty.
Yan Ruoxue smiled, "Okay, let's go eat."
