Become famous another day.

Although they are all actors, if we really talk about the status of actors, probably because they have been in the industry for enough years, in comparison, once Hollywood actors become famous and rise, they generally have more power than actors from other places.

Of course, the main reason is that Hollywood itself is a place that highly respects the star system.

In fact, before Lu Yanhe traveled through time, China had almost become "celebrity-centered" for a period of time, that is, the traffic era that followed the Internet era. For a few years, top streamers meant everything, and investors, directors, and producers all took a lot of money to invite those top streamers to join their projects.

Then this "top-tier era" collapsed rapidly when everyone realized that traffic could not be exchanged for real money.

Of course, in the field of TV dramas, especially ancient costume dramas, top-tier celebrities represented by Yang Mi still have a special status.

But this is often the case with a very small number of people, and there is no fixed rotation. The four leading actresses of Zhang Niangniang have occupied the ecological niche for almost 85 years, and there is still no one to take over. The flowers represented by Yang Mi also occupy their own ecological niche. Even though Da Beibi has been "missing" for so long, no one can fill it.

The thing about Hollywood is that, in its hundreds of years of development history, it has truly been continuously producing some extremely influential superstars.

In almost every ecological niche, one occupant leaves and another one comes.

However, this is also related to the fact that Hollywood basically judges stars by their movies, so the evaluation criteria are very unified.

Unlike in China, where movie stars are divided into X girls, the 85 flowers have taken the drama circle as their base and have suppressed the younger generation of movie stars for many years. The niche status of the leader and others has not yet developed into a middle-aged plate comparable to the four actresses and two ice queens. The comedy circle has also been controlling the film circle for many years.

The standards are too inconsistent. Basically, you argue about yours and I argue about mine. Fans are in an uproar, and each faction refuses to give in. The industry is a mess.

The reason why Hollywood wins is that no matter how popular your drama is or how great "Friends" is, it can't surpass the movie.

It forms such an iteration mechanism for movie stars.

Even in this era when "superstars are dead", after Julia Roberts, the "last No. 1 actress in Hollywood", there is still "cousin" Jennifer Lawrence who has been glorious for many years. The double buff of "The Hunger Games" series + Oscar-winning actress directly pushed her to the top. The movie "Passengers" starring her, which had a box office of over 100 million in North America, was also called a "flop".

After Leo, Timothée Chalamet has begun to take shape. Although he has not reached the height of the former, the industry and the media have already called him the "successor" of Leo's ecological niche. He is young, well-known, has good acting skills, and has good box office results. Especially in the biographical film "Nobodies", it has shattered the predictions, and now the North American box office has reached 7500 million and the global box office has reached 1.3 million.

These two people are the real representatives who have been pushed to the top by the entire Hollywood industry - as long as they put in a good performance and a good work, they will definitely be seen, there is no such thing as being buried.

Therefore, a movie like "Nobody" also helped him get his second Oscar nomination.

It’s not that he acted badly. To be honest, he did show a very different state and performance in this film.

But, as long as you work hard and show your talent, you will be noticed——

In an awards season that is never short of good performances, even though the film is so mediocre (not even the author thinks it is mediocre, the North American media and the industry think it is mediocre), he has always been on Otti's favorite list.

In such an environment, actors like Erin Wallace, although not currently top-tier, are still very popular.

Irene Wallace didn't take her agent's warning too seriously.

Even if Lu Yanhe was right, she believed that her persistence was not wrong.

No matter who she tells it to, she's always right.

In the film industry, if other actors give opinions on roles that are not theirs, it is tantamount to meddling, and no actor can accept this.

As for whether this suggestion is right or good, Irene doesn't care now.
-
"It's not his suggestion now, it's me who wants to change it."

Muken spoke to Irene's agent in a tough tone.

Irene's agent: "Muken, when we signed the contract, we made requirements for the script. This kind of temporary modification of the script requires our consent, otherwise, the script cannot be modified at will."

"If you think I have new ideas about the script during the filming process and cannot make changes, then don't come to me to talk about it. I will give my opinions to D19, and you should communicate with D19."

Muken said angrily.

Seeing this, Irene's agent softened his tone a little.

"Muken, you know, we respect your opinion, but Irene is also a girl who wants to save face. Lu Yanhe raised questions about her role in front of so many people. If she just accepts it, how will others see her?"

Muken: "She is an actress, she should be professional. Can't she see that this suggestion can make her role more complete?"

"Muken, I will talk to her again." The agent was helpless. "But, the bottom line is that Lu Yanhe didn't care about Irene's face when he made his suggestion, right? Irene is not a newcomer to acting. She is the heroine. Even if the protagonist of this movie is Lu Yanhe, he shouldn't be so disrespectful to Irene and make suggestions in public, right?"

"He was giving me advice, not to Irene." Muken remained firm. "I wrote the script, not Irene."

Irene's agent: "..."
-
In the evening, Muken suddenly gave each actor a revised script - just for that one scene.

Lu Yanhe was also surprised.

Muken moved the changes from the character of Eileen Wallace to the character of Wang Jiaqi.

This means that the part about the character of Eileen Wallace remained unchanged and remained within the original script. The added parts were all given to actors including Wang Jiaqi and Jason Porter.

Lu Yanhe suddenly realized.

This is certainly a good direction for modification.

Wang Jiaqi took on the original "negative" and "human greed" aspects of the character of Erin Wallace, while Jason Porter took on the original "supporting" role of Wang Jiaqi's character.

In fact, neither of them had any additional roles, but the characters have changed a bit after this change, especially Jason Porter, whose original role was to be a muscle and physical strength, but now he suddenly has some complexity in human nature.

Irene Wallace was furious in her room and threw the script.

The next day, she asked for sick leave from the crew through her agent and did not come to the set.

Muken also got angry.

"I wanted to change the script, but she didn't accept it. I kept watching her original content and didn't change anything, but she still didn't accept it and even called in sick! What's wrong with her?!"

Muken loses his temper with Erin's agent.

"If she doesn't cooperate, then leave as soon as possible!"

Irene's agent was also very helpless and even a little painful.

However, there was really nothing that could be done about Irene’s temper and personality.

Muken went straight to Xinnalin and raised the issue of Irene Wallace's current situation with her.

"Because she suddenly asked for leave, we couldn't finish shooting this scene today, so we could only shoot a single shot."

Xin Nalin was equally annoyed.

D19 agreed to Muken's request to modify the script.

This change does not affect any budget increase at all, and from a dramaturgical perspective, it is obvious that it can make the script more perfect.

Irene Wallace was so uncooperative.

Just because of a small thing, I feel like I'm being "bullied".

Xin Nalin said to Irene's agent: "Where is she? Hospital or hotel? Take me there."

Irene’s agent hemmed and hawed.

Xin Nalin turned to Mu Ken and said, "Mu Ken, if I can't bring her back today, see if you can just assign her role to someone else."

Irene's agent was horrified.

"Xin Nalin, it shouldn't have to come to this, right?"

Xin Nalin: "Although we are just an independent production company, D19 may not be as intimidating as Parameter and Midoriya, but we will not let an actor take us to his place. Come on, take me to find Irene. If I still can't convince her, then we will take legal action to terminate the contract."
-
Lu Yanhe and others were staying on the set and knew that the producer and director were communicating with Irene's agent.

Ryan Waters looked at Lu Yanhe with great fear.

This incident actually has nothing to do with him.

The adjustments to the ghost-hunting team's script have nothing to do with him.

However, while observing this incident, Ryan Waters came to a profound realization that in the eyes of D19 and Muken, Irene Wallace was not even half as good as Lu Yanhe, let alone comparable.

Both Muken and D19 quickly accepted and agreed to Lu Yanhe's suggestion.

This is a rare thing for a film company.

It is rare to be able to make some changes to a script so quickly on a procedural basis.

Especially after the filming started.

Ryan Waters thought that Eileen Wallace had hit a wall this time.

He and Irene Wallace had always been at odds, and he felt a sense of gloating when he saw her suffer.

However, at the same time, there is also an inexplicable sense of uneasiness that "the rabbit dies and the fox mourns".
-
"Yan He is filming in the United States and is not in China."

Chen Siqi sat opposite Yang Zhouli, and next to her sat Lin Yu.

She didn't come alone.

Although she didn't admit it, Chen Siqi was indeed a little scared when facing Yang Zhouli.

This was not the first time that Chen Siqi faced such big capital representatives, but it was the first time that she had conducted this type of negotiation.

She didn't even know how to start.

Until Yang Zhouli asked about Lu Yanhe's recent situation.

"Actually, I've always wanted to work with you guys." Yang Zhouli said to Chen Siqi in a very frank manner, "I also told Lu Yanhe the same thing before."

Chen Siqi: "We do not accept acquisitions or controlling stakes. If this is the way you want to cooperate, everyone knows it."

Yang Zhouli nodded.

"Indeed, I also asked about it later." He nodded, crossed his hands and put them together, "However, there are many ways to cooperate."

"Does this include poaching people from us?" Chen Siqi went straight to the point.

"That's not what I meant," Yang Zhouli said. "It's just a terrible fact that the best talents in this field are all from you. This is a somewhat distorted industry market. You either survive within the system relying on grants and subsidies, or die in this sunset industry. Only you are thriving."

"So the only way to recruit people is from us?"

"Just like you are not targeting us by not accepting acquisitions, financing, or holdings, we are not specifically targeting you to poach people, but only you have people to poach."

Yang Zhouli also said it very directly.

Chen Siqi didn't even know how to respond to this for a moment.

Lin Yu glanced at her and asked, "So, Mr. Yang means that he will continue to poach people from us in the future?"

"Actually, we also want to recruit you, but I don't know what conditions you need us to agree to." Yang Zhouli said with a smile.

"If you can dig Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi over there, I'll go over there." Lin Yu smiled calmly.

Chen Siqi: "Boss Yang, Shijin has a big family and a big business, so there is actually no need for him to compete with us."

"I have no intention of competing with you," Yang said. "Friends are better than enemies. I know that very well."

"But you always poach people from us. It doesn't seem like you want to be friends with us."

"On the contrary, with Xin Zixing and Bai Yu here, we can further cooperate and become friends, right?" Yang Zhouli said, "Yemai.com is an online community, Bai Yu is a traditional literary magazine, and 'Little Eyes' is responsible for the domestic distribution of foreign films. At least in these current businesses, we do not have any business conflicts, but there are many areas for win-win cooperation."

Chen Siqi frowned slightly and looked at Yang Zhouli.

What Yang Zhouli meant was beyond her expectations.

Mobile phone vibration.

Lin Yu glanced at the message on her phone and frowned.
-
——Lu Yanhe had a conflict of opinion with the heroine Irene Wallace in the film crew of the sequel to "The Mist"!

This was the news released by The Hollywood Reporter five minutes ago.

Along with this news, some photos were released.

It was obvious that Irene Wallace was angry, and in one of the photos she was even getting angry directly at Lu Yanhe.

This news quickly became a hot topic.

Discord among crew members is one of the most popular topics for everyone, regardless of whether they are Chinese or foreign.
-
Wang Biao hung up another call from a reporter and frowned.

Many domestic media called him, wanting to confirm the authenticity of the news from him.

Because there is no unified external statement for the time being, Wang Biao will not answer the phone for the time being.

Wan Qingqing has already rushed over to help deal with this matter.

Darren Wilson also came to the crew.

He will communicate and negotiate with Irene Wallace on behalf of Lu Yanhe to see how both parties will respond to this matter in the end, or how to resolve it.

When this kind of public opinion incident occurs, the most important thing is the communication between the news protagonists.
-
Lu Yanhe shrugged and said, "At most, just tell the truth. I have nothing to say that I cannot resist."

"Erin will twist this into you interfering with her performance," Darren Wilson said helplessly. "I know you mean well, but good intentions are the most difficult to prove and the easiest to be distorted."

Lu Yanhe: "If you want to deny the conflict between us, what if Irene comes out and stabs us in the back? It will only make us look guilty."

Darren Wilson said: "I will make sure that doesn't happen."

"But I'm worried," Lu Yanhe said. "I don't want to publicly say that there is no conflict between Irene and I. The best I can do is not respond or speak out."

Lu Yanhe was firm in his opinion.

He felt that since he had done nothing wrong, he should not dig a hole and jump into it just to keep the peace.

It was impossible for Darren Wilson to change Lu Yanhe's mind by force.

Seeing this, the public relations staff had to put their ideas aside for the time being and remain on hold.

This incident caused a lot of controversy.

Erin Wallace also continued to take sick leave and refused to come to the crew.

Muken and his team have already started filming other scenes.

D19 is researching the matter of Irene Wallace.

Finally, on the fourth day of Erin Wallace's sick leave, D19 gave her an ultimatum: if she still couldn't come to the crew tomorrow, she would be terminated directly.
-
Erin Wallace sat up in her bed angrily.

"How dare they? We signed a contract. I have health problems, and it is a reasonable request to ask for sick leave!"

The agent silently looked at the woman in front of him whose emotions had deviated from normal and began to become hysterical, and said, "Erin, I have explained the truth to you many times. Now you have to face the reality that if you can't show up on the set tomorrow, you will not only lose the movie "The Mist", but you will also face D19's lawsuit against you. This will be a long battle, and even if you win, you will not be able to retreat unscathed."

Erin Wallace screamed in anger.

Her fists were clenched.
-
The next day, Erin Wallace returned to the set with a blank expression on her face.

Lu Yanhe treated her as nothing.

Likewise, she treated him like nothing.

Like a stranger.
-
"Kneel down."

There was a layer of indifference in Lu Yanhe's eyes, as calm as a dry well, and as dead silent as a death gaze.

Irene Wallace's eyes were red, her jaw was trembling, and she knelt down in front of Lu Yanhe with a trembling face full of fear.

"Please, please let us go!" Her voice trembled and tears began to well up in her eyes. "We didn't mean to break in. We will leave here immediately! Please, let us go..."

Her sobs and fear emanated from every pore of her body.

Lu Yanhe stared at her without saying a word. Facing her plea for mercy, there was no emotion on his face. There was even a hint of amusement in his eyes.

It was subtle, but it was that hint of playfulness that made him seem more mysterious, powerful, and undetectable.

Until he shifted his gaze and fell on Wang Jiaqi.

"Crack!"

Muken yelled "click".

Erin Wallace immediately put away the fear on her face, stood up, and walked towards her lounge chair.

Lu Yanhe glanced at her.

When it comes to acting, Erin Wallace's performance is truly beyond reproach.

She is really good at acting. She can do what she wants and stop what she wants.

Lu Yanhe looked at Mu Ken.

Muken gave him a thumbs-up.

"Niu!" he said using the Chinese pronunciation.

Lu Yanhe smiled faintly.

He was immersed in the character's emotions and did not completely detach himself from them.

He wanted to keep this state and feeling as long as possible until the end of the day.

After the storm, although people did not restore harmony with each other, the filming could continue.

That’s okay too.

Just don't let anything else happen.
-
"How are you?"

"everything is normal."

During the video call, Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi smiled at each other.

Chen Siqi: "Before, I saw that you and Irene were in trouble, so I didn't tell you about my meeting with Yang Zhouli."

"How was your chat?"

"His idea was completely beyond my expectations." Chen Siqi recounted the content of her conversation with Yang Zhouli.

Lu Yanhe: "...He wants to cooperate with us?"

"Yes." Chen Siqi said, "You didn't expect it, did you? According to him, digging out Sister Zixing and Bai Yu was actually to strengthen cooperation with us."

Lu Yanhe really didn't know what to say for a moment.

Indeed.

If it is Xin Zixing and Bai Yu, the two sides do have a basis for cooperation.

Even if Xin Zixing and Bai Yu left, they parted ways with them peacefully. They were not colleagues, but they were still friends. However, was it necessary for Yang Zhouli to play such a big game to cooperate with him?
Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi were both silent.

They looked at each other through the video call, and no one spoke.

After a long silence, he said, "Do you think we can cooperate with him?"

"Don't rush to judge, just take it one step at a time," Chen Siqi said. "I won't accept financing or controlling stakes, that's the bottom line, and we can wait and see about the rest."

Lu Yanhe: "I'm afraid that after we take the first step, there will be a second and third step. We all know that they have big intentions."

"No matter how big his ambitions are, he can't be the only one in the market. He's not crazy and knows this."

"Yes." Lu Yanhe said, "So you are inclined to cooperate with him?"

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "He proposed a cooperation plan that I can't refuse."

"Ok?"

"Shijin has a lot of investments and layouts overseas, including two publishing companies covering more than 50 countries," said Chen Siqi. "He can share these resources with Tiaoshang."

"He shouldn't be here just for charity, right?" Lu Yanhe laughed, "What does he want?"

"He made two requests. First, for every play produced by Jump Up Theater, priority should be given to Shi Jin with at least 35% of the investment share. Second, the electronic version of Jump Up should be put back on Yemai.com, and a deeper framework cooperation should be carried out. In short, phased shared cooperation should be carried out on platform and content." said Chen Siqi.

Lu Yanhe: "It sounds like he wants to shorten their accumulation period in the entertainment media as much as possible."

"I think so." Chen Siqi said, "He also said that it's not just "Jump Up". In fact, some traditional literary magazines such as "Harvest", as well as some top overseas content magazines and media, such as those comic magazines in Japan, have all discussed cooperation. They want to make Yemai.com a comprehensive and largest community content platform."

Lu Yanhe was surprised.

These are truly resources that only a large capital with strong strength like Shijin can integrate.

Just buying copyrights is a time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly task.

Chen Siqi said: "In fact, to some extent, we are just one of his content suppliers, but what he can provide us is not only domestic platforms, but also multiple overseas channels. He invited me to go to Japan with him and Xin Zixing next week. He will communicate and cooperate with several top comic magazines in Japan. He suggested that we can choose suitable novels to discuss comic and animation adaptation."

“He wants you to see his energy for yourself.”

"Yes." Chen Siqi sighed, "Now I suddenly understand Bai Yu. Why did she choose to leave? She said it very directly, because Jump Up can continue to do well without her, but she can get a better job opportunity. I originally went to ask for an explanation, but they sent me a big gift, and it touched my heart. I was immediately moved."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"Then trust your intuition and judgment." He said, "However, if you jump up and want to cooperate with him, Linghe and Shihuo should wait and see for the time being. I will also tell Sister Ziyan that you can't put all your eggs in one basket."

"Yeah." Chen Siqi nodded. She thought of something and said, "There's one more thing. He said he would give you a gift."

"What?" Lu Yanhe was stunned.

Chen Siqi: "I had the same reaction as you, but he refused to explain more, and only said that we would know later."

Lu Yanhe: "I haven't received any gifts recently. Is he trying to get me this way? No way?"
-
After thinking about it, Lu Yanhe felt that Yang Zhouli would not do this.

Yang Zhouli is not so low-level. Does he think that Lu Yanhe can be bribed by these little tricks?
"Yan He." Mu Ken suddenly came to him.

"Huh?" Lu Yanhe was a little confused, wondering why Mu Ken came to him.

Muken said: "I thought about it and there is one place I want to modify."

"Where?"

"Your battle with Ryan," Muken said. "I want to add a scene where he is defeated by you and completely falls to the ground. He suddenly attacks you and causes you serious damage in front of the ghost hunting team. Of course, you are strong enough. Even so, you have someone attack you again, which directly scare him to pieces and completely destroy him."

"This..." Lu Yanhe reacted quickly, "Do you think that with this scene, they will be daring, thinking that I am in a weak period, and in terms of the logic of the story, it will be more credible for them to take the risk and try to catch me?"

"Yes." Muken nodded.

Lu Yanhe nodded, "I think this is a good idea, no problem, I can shoot it."

Muken: "Then we will reshoot a scene like this tomorrow."

"it is good."

This scene was actually simple to shoot, but it required a few more special effects shots in post-production, including Lean's attack, Lu Yanhe's injury, and Lu Yanhe's complete elimination of Lean.

As a result, the film's production budget may have to be slightly increased unless Muken can save money from other places.

How to communicate with D19 is Mu Ken’s business, Lu Yanhe doesn’t need to worry about it.

Lu Yanhe was very happy to see that Mu Ken was still thinking about the script.

Moreover, this is a problem that can only be realized when it is actually filmed and combined with the actors' performances.

Judging from the logic of the script's text and content, it actually makes sense without adding these scenes.

However, when Lu Yanhe appeared in front and showed such a strong aura and strength, there were logical weaknesses in the visual effects, so adjustments had to be made.

A good director should be able to make adjustments at any time based on the on-site shooting conditions to ensure that the entire film is within a smooth, natural and complete framework.

After filming this movie, especially playing this role again in the second part, Lu Yanhe felt that his ability to grasp the role had visibly improved.

In this role, Lu Yanhe deeply felt that what is more important than acting skills is to grasp the subtle state of the character.

The most subtle details are often the most unique and charming part of a character.

Lu Yanhe really likes the light, seemingly arrogant and indifferent feeling he had when playing this ghost.
-
In the crew, both Wang Jiaqi and Jason Porter were very grateful to Lu Yanhe.

There is nothing else to say. If Lu Yanhe had not proposed some revisions, their characters would not have undergone the changes that Irene Wallace was unwilling to accept, and then their personalities would not have been enriched.

It's not just about a few more lines.

Jason Porter didn't know, but Wang Jiaqi, an actor who had been acting for many years and pondering scripts for many years, knew very well that once this little bit of screen time was added, their characters would immediately have an extra level, which meant that there was a greater possibility of being remembered by the audience.

The news about the discord between Lu Yanhe and Irene Wallace was hot for a few days, but neither side responded, including the crew and D19, and the heat gradually faded.

But in the crew, it was well known that the two of them didn't get along. No one took sides, and everyone just quietly did their own job.

Wang Jiaqi was the first person to openly talk and laugh with Lu Yanhe in front of Irene Wallace and show their closeness in public.

Jason Potter was the second.

Wang Jiaqi asked directly in front of many people: "Yan He, do you have any suggestions for my role? The guidance you gave me before was really useful. I finally understand why you can win so many acting awards."

Wang Jiaqi's words were heartbreaking and pierced Irene Wallace's heart.

This was not enough. One day, Wang Jiaqi asked again: "Yan He, I heard many people say that the movie "Tropical Rainy Season" in which you won the Best Actor Award at the Xitul this year will participate in this year's award season. If it is premiered in the United States at that time, don't forget to send me an invitation. I must attend."

Lu Yanhe smiled and nodded.

At this point, Irene Wallace couldn't help it anymore.

"Do you really think it's so easy to get through award season?" Her words were full of disapproval and contempt for Lu Yanhe.

This is also the area where Irene Wallace feels most superior compared to Lu Yanhe.

No matter how much Lu Yanhe is rumored to have, he has not yet received an Oscar nomination.

Even if you win the Best Actor award at the Hollywood Awards, it's not as useful as an Oscar nomination in Hollywood.

As a result, at this time, Jason Porter asked: "Lu, will you still be the guest presenter at the Oscars this year?"

"I don't know yet." Lu Yanhe shook his head. "I used to receive notifications one or two months before the awards ceremony."

"I envy you so much. You're less than 25 years old, and you've already been an Oscar presenter twice." Wang Jiaqi said, and then suddenly seemed to remember something. He turned to look at Erin Wallace and asked, "Erin, how many times have you been an award presenter?"

Irene Wallace's face changed.

"Oh, you were only nominated once." Wang Jiaqi seemed to have suddenly realized something, "I haven't seen you at the Oscars for a long time."

"..." Lu Yanhe was shocked. He didn't expect Wang Jiaqi to be so aggressive towards Irene Wallace.

Although, Lu Yanhe could probably guess that Wang Jiaqi was returning the favor.

Irene Wallace was so angry that her face turned green. She sneered and looked at Wang Jiaqi.

"Wait until you get nominated for an Oscar before you start mocking me. What do you think you are now?"

Wang Jiaqi didn't care about her ridicule at all.

She responded confidently.

"If I were a white person like you, with my acting skills, I would have been nominated more than once."

Wang Jiaqi is now full of aggression, with a fierce look in his eyes, as if he is a fighting chicken pretending to be strolling in the garden.

"If you were Asian, could you have achieved what I have achieved in a place like Hollywood?" Wang Jiaqi said this without feeling guilty at all.

She can be said to be one of the few best-performing Asian actors in Hollywood.

Among the white actors in Hollywood, if you don’t win an Oscar for Best Actor/Best Actress, you should be embarrassed to say that you are one of the top few.

Erin Wallace's face turned even greener.

Lu Yanhe lowered his head and chuckled.

Wang Jiaqi's attack power is quite strong.

Deep down in his heart, Lu Yanhe was very grateful to Wang Jiaqi for being willing to step forward at this time and help him to rebuke Irene Wallace.

He was a man of dignity and was unwilling to engage in a heated argument with Irene Wallace in public.

However, he couldn't endure Irene's ridicule.

Fortunately, Wang Jiaqi is not only willing to step forward at this time, but also has the ability to do so, and can completely crush Irene.
-
Ryan Waters heard about the quarrel between Wang Jiaqi and Irene later.

While he was shocked, he was also thankful once again that Irene had taken the lead and raged at Lu Yanhe.

Then the first one to stick out was shot.

Irene Wallace was much younger than he was.

It was hard for Ryan Waters to imagine whether he would have the face to stay in the crew if he had a conflict with Lu Yanhe and the crew, film company and other actors all stood on Lu Yanhe's side.

He is a very face-conscious person.

If it wasn't for the fact that he had some unpleasantness with Lu Yanhe because of being late on the first day of the script reading, he would definitely have taken the initiative to make friends with Lu Yanhe.

To be honest, Ryan Waters also wanted to make friends with Lu Yanhe.

He is famous and powerful, can write scripts and carry out projects, and even in Hollywood, there are people who will buy into his ideas.

Ryan Waters always tries to be friendly with people like this as much as possible.

As an actor who is vaguely out of date (to put it bluntly, already out of date), he is well aware of the importance of finding more opportunities for himself and leaving more ways out.

Ryan Waters was now too embarrassed to take the initiative to talk to Lu Yanhe.

Fortunately, there was no conflict between them.

After filming with Lu Yanhe for a while, he was about to wrap up.

His role mainly takes place in the early stage, and the filming will be completed after he is eliminated by Lu Yanhe.

When he finished filming his last scene, on the final day, Ryan Waters hesitated for a long time, wondering whether he should go and say hello to Lu Yanhe.

Who would have thought that at this time, Lu Yanhe actually came over with a small bag.

"Hi, Ryan." Lu Yanhe knocked on the door of his lounge. "Is it convenient now?"

Ryan Waters looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise, "Of course, please come in."

Lu Yanhe said, "You finished filming today. It was a real pleasure to work with you on this movie."

His rivalry with Ryan Waters is actually the battle scene.

However, that scene, from the time he walked down the stairs until they finished shooting, took about a week to shoot, and the scene with him and the ghost hunting team also took about a week to shoot, which means that Ryan Waters shot for a total of about two weeks.

Lu Yanhe admired Ryan Waters' performance very much.

It must be admitted that although his lateness made Lu Yanhe very unhappy at first, such unpleasant things never happened again after that.

Unlike Irene Wallace, Ryan Waters never provoked or had any unpleasantness with Lu Yanhe again.

So, Lu Yanhe took the initiative to break the ice.

Since the other person is older, Lu Yanhe is willing to take the initiative to give him a way out.

Judging from Ryan Waters' reaction, he had actually wanted to ease relations with him a long time ago.

This is enough.

"This is a Chinese folding fan I brought from China."

Lu Yanhe handed the bag to him and introduced it.

"I wrote the words above." He smiled, "I hope you like it."

Ryan Waters opened the box, took out the folding fan inside, and opened it to take a look.

He showed a surprised expression.

On the folding fan, in addition to a few words he couldn't understand, there was also a simply sketched portrait. It was him, and he could tell at a glance that the portrait was him.

"Wow——" Ryan Waters' eyes were shining.

This is neither a sketch nor a painting.

"This is a traditional Chinese ink painting. I asked a professional painter to paint it, but I don't know how to paint." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "But I wrote these words myself, which means 'Friends come from afar', which is a saying of Confucius, a very wise ancient philosopher in China."

Ryan Waters was even more pleasantly surprised.

“I know Confucius.”

Confucius is indeed very well-known internationally.

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"You are welcome to come to China, contact me when you come," said Lu Yanhe.

"Okay." Ryan Waters has now completely forgotten the embarrassment he felt after being "tricked" by Lu Yanhe in the beginning.

He now just feels that this gift is very special and meaningful.

He loved this gift very much.

“I like this fan.”

"Thank you." Lu Yanhe smiled contentedly, "I'm very happy if you like it."

A few hours later, Ryan Waters posted a status with a photo of himself finishing the film, a group photo with many people in the crew, and some other photos.

However, his first photo was of a Chinese folding fan.

Ryan Waters mentioned this folding fan in his post, and wrote:

This is the most meaningful wrap-up gift I have ever received. Do you know what these Chinese characters mean? They were written by Lu Yanhe himself!

"You and Ryan get along very well." Chen Siqi said to Lu Yanhe afterwards.

Lu Yanhe: "...If I say that I took the initiative to find him to break the ice when he was finishing filming, would you believe it?"

"What?" Chen Siqi was shocked.

Lu Yanhe: "I didn't expect that he would like this gift so much."

"You really put a lot of thought into this gift." Chen Siqi asked, "You didn't prepare a folding fan like this for each of them, did you?"

"Yes, we have prepared it. We will give it to everyone as a gift when they finish filming." Lu Yanhe said, "Li En is the first one to finish filming."

"What about Irene's, are you ready?"

"I'm prepared, but I don't plan to give it to you." Lu Yanhe said bluntly.

"Okay." Chen Siqi smiled, "Then she will be embarrassed."

"It was her own choice."

Chen Siqi: "When can you finish filming?"

"I still have some time." Lu Yanhe shook his head. "This movie is not difficult to shoot, but Muken is taking a long time to shoot. His requirements are much higher than the first movie. He was very picky about many shots and started playing with the camera."

Chen Siqi: "Then aren't you very happy?"

Chen Siqi knew exactly what kind of person Lu Yanhe was.

Under Lu Yanhe's pretended annoyance tone, he was indeed satisfied and happy.

He always wants a play to be better.

"I ran into Director Luo today." Chen Siqi suddenly said, "He got into some trouble recently. Have you heard about it?"

"Ah?" Lu Yanhe asked, "Are you talking about my teacher?"

"Yes." Chen Siqi said, "You don't know?"

"I don't know, what happened to him?" Lu Yanhe asked immediately.

Chen Siqi: "He was preparing a play before. I don't know if it's the one you're looking for. It seems that there is a problem with the copyright. The original author is preparing to sue. I don't know the details. When you are free, give Director Luo a call to ask about the situation."

"Okay." Lu Yanhe said, "Luckily you came across it, otherwise I wouldn't know about it, and the teacher definitely wouldn't have planned to tell me."

"He may think that it's useless to tell you. Not to mention that you are filming abroad now, even if you are in China, if he can't solve the problem, it will be difficult for you to find a solution."

This is true.

"However, at a time like this, no matter whether you can help or not, you have to show your concern," said Chen Siqi.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

Chen Siqi is right, of course.
