Wang Shen had just arranged to meet Zhang Chao today, so he immediately called someone else.
After that person picked up the call, he didn’t wait for Wang Shen to speak at all. His usual cold and calm tone even carried a hint of impatience and joy. “She agreed?”
Wang Shen had been a director for so many years, so he could tell the expression of the person who spoke from his tone. However, he really couldn’t imagine the happy expression of the person on the other end of the phone at this moment because he had never seen that person smile.

The person on the other end of the phone heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said coldly, “Yes.”
The call was hung up.
This time, Yuan Shu, Shi Lu, and Zhang Chao had all arrived, but Wang Shen was the only director there. The assistant director had not arrived.
However, the conversation between the four of them went very smoothly. Shi Lu’s role was decided very quickly. The only controversy was about Yuan Shu.
Wang Shen was a little hesitant. “Yuan Shu, your temperament is really very compatible with that of the female lead, but I have some concerns. Because you’re a newbie and have never acted professionally, I’m a little worried about your performance… I wonder if you’ll get stage fright?”
This was what Yuan Shu was worried about. Filming was a experience for her. Whether it was in the past or in this world, she had never come into contact with acting. However, it was Shi Lu who dispelled their worries.
“Director Wang, 1 think you can rest assured. With my sister-in-law’s personality, she will take everything seriously and try her best to be perfect. I believe it’s the same when it comes to acting. Moreover, 1 can teach her. Why don’t you give me a week to familiarize her with the film set before letting her try out the scene?”
After hearing Shi Lu’s words, Wang Shen was very happy. Although Shi Lu was aloof, he was serious about acting. His superb acting skills were obvious to all. Since he said that, there was naturally no need to worry.
After the few of them agreed, Yuan Shu suddenly asked, “Director Wang, who will play the role of the literary scholar?”
Wang Shen’s tone was uncertain. “I’m still communicating with some actors about this role. Personally, I’m more inclined to Zhao Tian, who just filmed a popular drama not long ago, but his schedule has yet to be confirmed.”
Zhang Chao was very familiar with Zhao Tian. He was the same type of actor as Shi Lu, so fans often compared the two of them. If the two of them acted in a drama at the same time, it would naturally be popular and they could save a sum of money on promoting it!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFilming was set to start in a month, and there was a test scene in a week.
In order to let Yuan Shu understand and adapt to the environment on the set faster, Shi Lu found a suitable spot for her to observe the filming the next day.
As soon as Zhang Zhang returned to the country, she received an advertisement for a sitcom. It was an advertisement for a snack brand, so Shi Lu brought Yuan Shu to the set to take a look.
It was Yuan Shu’s first time on the set, so she didn’t expect there to be so many people watching, and there were also many staff members. There were at least seven to eight cameras.
Yuan Shu noticed that during the filming process, Zhang Zhang was very good at finding a camera position. She would also change the angle from time to time so that every camera could capture her figure.
In such an environment, it wasn’t easy not to have stage fright, let alone act with ease.
Seeing that Yuan Shu was looking at him so seriously, Shi Lu teased, “Sister-in-law, are you afraid after seeing it?”
Yuan Shu was only focused on learning and didn’t have the time to joke with him. She waved her hand impatiently and asked him to walk further away. Shi Lu felt wronged. Yuan Shu was just supposed to be observing today, so there was no need to be so serious.
However, Yuan Shu was a perfectionist, so she was very serious about everything and tried her best to do her best. Hence, she watched it seriously for the entire day and even walked two steps from time to time to observe the effect of each camera.
After Zhang Zhang finished work at night, Yuan Shu rubbed her swollen eyes as she was brought to Zhang Zhang’s camper van by Shi Lu..
