Chapter 2492: Chapter 2280: Almost Mistook Mr. Song for a Scammer_5
"Yeah, I took an early car here. Let me introduce you to Director Zhou, this is my agent, Zhao Junsong." Shen Jiayan introduced Zhao Junsong to Director Zhou.
"Hello, Director Zhou!" Zhao Junsong warmly shook hands with Zhou Yuanzhi.
"Hello, hello."
"Well, today we’re mainly here to register and get familiar with the filming location. We haven’t finalized the actors yet; there will be auditions in a few days to see how it goes. If it goes well, Miss Shen has a chance to become the lead!" Zhou Yuanzhi said to Shen Jiayan with a smile.
"Really?" Shen Jiayan was so excited she almost jumped up.
"Of course, but it still depends on your audition performance!" Zhou Yuanzhi told Shen Jiayan.
"Don’t worry, Director Zhou, I will definitely work hard!"
"Hmm, go ahead."
Director Zhou went off to his work again, and Zhao Junsong stood with Shen Jiayan by the set, waiting for arrangements.
After a while, Shen Jiayan suddenly saw a familiar face and excitedly grabbed Zhao Junsong’s arm, shouting, "It’s Sister Jiao! It’s Sister Jiao!"
"Zhang Lijiao?" Zhao Junsong asked in confusion.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Shen Jiayan pulled Zhao Junsong towards Zhang Lijiao.
"Sister Jiao!" Shen Jiayan ran up to Zhang Lijiao.
"Oh, Jia Yan! You got here even earlier than me!" Zhang Lijiao warmly greeted Shen Jiayan.
"Yeah, I took an early car here," Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao.
"Alright, let’s go see Director Zhou." Zhang Lijiao took Shen Jiayan’s hand to find Director Zhou.
"Director Zhou!"
"Oh dear, the villain’s here!" Zhou Yuanzhi couldn’t help but joke when he saw Zhang Lijiao.
"So annoying!"
"You’re the one who said you wanted to play the female villain!"
"Director Zhou!"
"It’s good you’re here. Find a place to rest; we’ll have a meeting when everyone’s here," Zhou Yuanzhi said to Zhang Lijiao.
"Okay."
Zhang Lijiao took Shen Jiayan to chat.
A few more people arrived outside the set.
One of them was wearing a mink coat, large sunglasses, black stockings, and high heels. You could tell right away it was a female star out in casual wear. Another young man in a suit was the agent, and they were followed by two sturdy bodyguards and several other staff.
The female star’s name was Feng Yuzhi, a top-tier superstar in the country, with appearance fees often reaching hundreds of thousands, even millions. Her acting fees were shockingly high.
The season was already late autumn, and it was a bit cold in the morning. Several of Feng Yuzhi’s staff were helping her, with one carrying her bag, another holding a hand warmer, and another holding her coffee, while Feng Yuzhi herself was walking with her head down, playing on her phone.
"Oh, this is interesting. Looks like it’s going to be lively today. Look who’s coming." Zhang Lijiao pointed in the direction where Feng Yuzhi was coming from and said to Shen Jiayan.
"Who’s here?" Shen Jiayan turned her head to look in the direction Zhang Lijiao was pointing and saw Feng Yuzhi and her staff walking over.
"Feng, Feng Yuzhi? Is it really Feng Yuzhi?" Shen Jiayan was so excited her voice cracked.
"Why are you so excited?" Zhang Lijiao was a bit annoyed seeing Shen Jiayan so thrilled.
"Sister Jiao, I’m her fan!" Shen Jiayan told Zhang Lijiao.
"Really? You sure have poor taste." Zhang Lijiao said to Shen Jiayan, a bit displeased.
"Sister Jiao, what’s wrong? I love the dramas she starred in the most!" Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao upon seeing her expression.
"Shouldn’t you, as someone in the industry, have some understanding of Feng Yuzhi’s matters?" Zhang Lijiao said to Shen Jiayan.
"Hehehe, Sister Jiao, I’m not even third-rate; how can I consider myself an insider? Please don’t make fun of me. So, is Feng Yuzhi not well-liked in the industry?" Shen Jiayan quietly moved closer to Zhang Lijiao, lowering her voice considerably towards the end.
"I haven’t said anything! I can’t afford to offend someone like her; she’s a big star, and it’s normal for her to have a big ego and a bad temper. I just didn’t expect her to actively seek out Director Zhou for filming. Looks like there won’t be peace in the future." Zhang Lijiao couldn’t help but sigh.
"Sister Jiao, the way you say it, you’ve made Feng Yuzhi sound like a Demon." Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao.
Zhang Lijiao couldn’t help rolling her eyes in the direction Feng Yuzhi was coming from and said to Shen Jiayan, "Don’t say that. If she finds out I’m badmouthing her behind her back, I won’t be able to stay in this industry anymore."
"Sister, I won’t tell her anything, don’t worry." Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao.
"Oh, why did I tell you these things? I just see you as young, like a little sister, afraid you’d get bullied, so I’m giving you a heads-up. When dealing with people like her, you need to be extra cautious. If you anger her, you won’t have an easy time on set." Zhang Lijiao said to Shen Jiayan.
"Sister Jiao, if she bullies me, you have to help me!" Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao.
"I wouldn’t dare to offend her. I’m not afraid of anyone in this industry, except her. She’s vindictive, and her methods of suppressing others are even more sophisticated than her acting skills," Zhang Lijiao said.
"Oh, what am I going to do then?" Shen Jiayan showed a worried expression.
Chapter 2284 Willingly Being a Supporting Role
"How did Director Zhou end up letting her know about the filming? I don’t want to shoot this anymore!" Zhang Lijiao was considering leaving.
"Don’t, Sister Jiao, what will I do if you leave? If you go, it’ll just be me left, and your fame is much greater than mine. I’m not afraid, so what are you afraid of?" Shen Jiayan said to Zhang Lijiao.
