Chapter 40 Volunteering
"nonsense!"
Tangyuan rolled her eyes at him.
"If this is a windfall, why wouldn't I take it? Am I supposed to save it for the New Year? I'd definitely agree to it on the spot."
But don't get too excited yet. The salary and scheduling are the biggest problems. I heard his schedule overlaps with most of "The Left Ear's" schedule. If we can't coordinate, you'll have to reluctantly give up the role.
Looking at Tangyuan, who was efficient and resourceful, planning everything for him, Su Yu smiled and said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble Sister Tangyuan to lead the charge!"
......
The crew has only a few days left of acting lessons. Since Ma Sichun apologized late at night last time, the estrangement between Su Yu and her has been completely eliminated. With Su Yu's help, the group is making rapid progress.
However, Su Yu didn't inquire about how Ma Sichun explained that day to Chen Duling. But ever since then, Chen Duling's gaze towards him would always occasionally reveal a hint of awkwardness, like a mimosa that has been touched. This girl hadn't even asked him to play games together for several days.
Su Yu had tried to contact her a few times, but she always refused, saying she was "too busy" or "too busy." This made Su Yu wonder if she thought he was some kind of pervert!
Could it be that Ma Sichun told her but she didn't believe it?
In fact, Chen Duling not only didn't believe it, but also shared her experience of social death in her college roommates' group chat. The strategist team put their super brains to work and finally concluded that Su Yu was a super invincible pervert!
What else could a girl do if he held a belt up to him? Even a fool could figure it out!
Absolutely insane!
......
A few days later, the entire crew officially started filming and set off for Dongshan Island.
At that time, Dongshan Island was still an unknown island. After the movie "The Left Ear" became a hit, it also became popular, and several important filming locations became popular spots for internet celebrities to take photos.
The sea breeze carried a salty, fishy smell, and the sky was azure.
Under the expectant gazes of Rao Xueman and Su Youpeng, Su Yu began his first scene.
With all entries unlocked, we're bound to conquer them in one go!
In front of the camera, Su Yu, wearing a clean and crisp school uniform that represents youth, walks down a slope.
Chen Duling, with her hair in a ponytail, rode a bicycle down the slope.
Her mind was in turmoil. She was nervous about filming for the first time, but also felt a strange flutter when she saw Su Yu. This perfectly matched Li Er's current state of mind.
In short, everything seemed perfect to Su Youpeng and Rao Xueman.
As she pedaled, she was frantically muttering to herself:
"Don't look at him, don't look at him... Chen Duling, have some self-respect! That's just Su Yu, no, he's Xu Yi now, but even though he's Xu Yi, he's still just Su Yu!"
As a result, the moment Su Yu walked out around the corner in his school uniform, a ray of sunlight shone on his impeccable face, and Chen Duling knew she was doomed.
Damn Su Yu! Why can't I stop myself from looking at him!
With a snap, her hand trembled, the handlebars veered sharply, and she and the bike crashed onto the sidewalk with a thud.
Su Yu reacted extremely quickly, taking three steps in two to reach Chen Duling's slender arm and firmly supporting it.
"Hey kid, are you alright? Where did you hurt yourself?"
Chen Duling tilted her head back and hurriedly scrambled to her feet, looking like a frightened deer, as if Li Er herself had stepped out of the book.
"Pass! Perfect!" Su Youpeng excitedly pumped his fist behind the monitor.
For the first scene, his biggest worry was that Chen Duling would appear wooden due to nervousness, and he was prepared to do more than a dozen takes. Unexpectedly, Chen Duling performed so naturally and perfectly that it was done in one take!
Of course, Su Yu's performance was as expected. As long as this guy was on set, there was absolutely no need for him to worry. This was the conclusion Su Youpeng had drawn after spending time with him.
After the first scene ended, only Chen Duling knew that she had been acting completely naturally. When she saw Su Yu, she even forgot that she was filming. Everything she did was a purely instinctive reaction. She didn't expect the effect to be so good!
Chen Duling couldn't help but steal a few glances at Su Yu next to her. Why did this guy seem different from usual?
Why is he so handsome today?! Who could resist looking at him!
Even after wrapping up filming, Chen Duling's blush hadn't faded. She had been repeatedly drawn into character by Su Yu's gaze, making her heart race. She was also genuinely grateful to the production team; good casting really does make filming go much more smoothly!
Although this was Chen Duling's first time acting, she already had a deep feeling about it. When she put Su Yu's face into Xu Yi's, everything made sense—it all felt like something that had happened around her.
This gave Chen Duling a boost of confidence.
She quietly rubbed her burning cheeks, finally seeming to have completely forgotten the previous embarrassment, and sidled up to Su Yu with her hands behind her back:
"Su Yu, hey, the internet speed here seems pretty good, how about... we go to an internet cafe in town and play some games together?"
Just as Su Yu was about to nod, he heard Su Youpeng's somewhat exasperated shouting coming from the set again.
"Ou Hao, get into character! I need that suppressed outburst, not you just standing there pretending to be cool!"
And Si Chun, your eyes are too unfocused. All these takes you two had to do were because there was no chemistry, understand? No chemistry!
In the center of the scene, Ou Hao's face was already flushed red. Although he had a lot of experience on the big screen and was a star on the talent show stage, he obviously did not expect that acting would be so much more difficult than singing and dancing when it came to actually filming on set.
Ma Sichun bit her lip, looking guilty.
Su Yu sighed as he watched this scene unfold, and led Chen Duling forward.
"Director, how about I go with Sister Si Chun for a rehearsal? Help them get a feel for it," Su Yu volunteered.
Su Youpeng was taken aback, then nodded: "That's great. Ou Hao, you take a rest first. Su Yu, you go up and set an example."
Su Yu walked up to Ma Sichun, smiled at her, and then... the entry was activated.
In an instant, Su Yu's entire aura changed, transforming him from Xu Yi into Zhang Yang!
