Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 19 Guo Bijing

At the end of October, the temperature in Taiwan began to drop gradually, and there was even a slight cool breeze in the early morning.

Guo Biting sat in the rental house rented by the crew, biting the fried dough sticks she brought with her. She seemed a little absent-minded and looked towards the door from time to time.

The filming of the MV "The Invisible Man" was full of twists and turns. The original plan was to start filming the day before yesterday.

As a result, an accident occurred in the middle of the process. The original male lead was detained for committing a crime, which caused the filming of the MV to be delayed for two full days.

If it was before, Guo Biting would not be in a hurry.

Although she has made a name for herself in Taiwan in the past two years as a print model for fashion magazines such as "BEAUTY" and "RAY" and has received a large number of advertisements and MV notices, she is not particularly busy overall.

It's just different this time.

After contacting many parties, her agent helped her get in touch with a TV series in mainland China called "Golden Years".

This TV series is the work of Li Dawei, the director of the 2003 hit TV series "The Story of a Noble Family".

It can be considered as the sequel to "The Story of a Noble Family".

The production team invited the Taiwan-famous actor Lan Zhenglong to play the leading role, while the female lead is Huang Shengyi, who became popular all over China last year with Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu".

The second male lead was also played by the new rising star Yan Yikuan from mainland China.

Her agent and company used various connections to get her the opportunity to audition for the second female lead in the play.

The auditions for this play will begin in a few days.

For Guo Biting, this is a very rare opportunity to star in a TV series that has the potential to become a big hit.

She didn't want to miss this opportunity.

However, at this critical juncture, problems arose in the filming of the MV "The Invisible Man".

If this MV is not filmed today.

Then she might miss the audition for "Golden Years" because of this MV.

Time is passing by, and the new male lead promised by the director yesterday has not arrived yet.

This made Guo Biting look around, and she was already thinking in her heart that if the filming did not start today, she would breach the contract.

Even if she had to pay a penalty for breach of contract, she could not give up the play "Golden Years".

"I'll introduce you to the MV's heroine, Guo Biting. You guys should get familiar with each other first. We'll start filming on time at ten o'clock."

"Ok!"

Just as she was waiting anxiously, Guo Biting suddenly heard the voice of director Sun Yang talking to someone at the door, and the voice was getting closer and closer.

In the blink of an eye, two figures walked in through the door.

One of them is director Sun Yang.

The other person was a handsome boy wearing a white T-shirt.

When Guo Biting saw this person, her eyes lit up.

This should be the new male lead of the MV.

Very handsome and very elegant.

In recent years, Guo Biting has shot many music videos and magazines, and has met many handsome men and beautiful women.

This boy can be ranked at the forefront among them.

Because she was in a hurry to take the photos, she had a good first impression of this boy who came to her rescue.

She quickly stood up and greeted politely.

"director!"

"Bi Ting, this is the male lead of the MV, Wu Zhuo. You guys should get acquainted with each other first. We will start filming on time at ten o'clock!"

"This is our MV's heroine, Christine Kuo."

Sun Yang first responded to Guo Biting, and then turned back to introduce Wu Chao.

"Hello, Miss Guo, I'm Wu Zhuo, please take care of me."

Wu Zhuo stepped forward and shook hands with Guo Biting.

"You guys chat first, I still have other work to arrange. Before the shooting, I will come over to explain some elements of the shooting to you!"

Sun Yang greeted them and hurried out of the rental house to arrange the filming.

"Have you had breakfast? I have fried dough sticks and soy milk, they're still hot."

Guo Biting carefully glanced at the boy in front of her and handed him another portion of fried dough sticks and soy milk. This boy was so handsome that she couldn't help but want to take a few more glances.

"Thank you! I'll be welcome then!"

Wu Zhuo took the fried dough sticks and soy milk and sat down on the chair opposite.

This rental house is an old one. In order to film, the crew arranged a lot of things in it, and it looks a bit messy overall.

But this also reflects the living environment of an ordinary person.

"I heard from the director that Miss Guo has filmed a lot of music videos. I'm a newbie, so when we're filming later, Miss Guo, you have to take good care of me."

Guo Biting is the type who won’t take the initiative to bring up a topic unless you talk to her.

It was already extraordinary that he took the initiative to talk to Wu Zhuo and invited him to have breakfast.

So, she stopped talking after she sat down.

Seeing this, Wu Zhuo took the initiative to talk to ease the atmosphere.

"I just shot a few more MVs. You will shoot according to the director's instructions. If there are any problems, I will remind you." Guo Biting said with a smile.

"Ms. Guo, are you here early? It seems like you've been waiting for a long time."

"It's not bad! My home is quite close to here, and it only takes about ten minutes by bus."

The two of them chatted idly.

During this time, Wu Zhuo's eyes swept across Guo Biting's face more than once.

In his previous life, he didn't know much about Guo Biting.

The little that is known about her mainly comes from the nationally popular "Your Extra" advertisement, Nan Xiang in Tiny Times, and Xiang Zuo's wife.

His only impression of her was that she was beautiful.

With her long straight black hair, she should be considered a great beauty in the entertainment industry which is full of beautiful women.

Although Guo Biting was not famous at that time, she was a little-known figure in the entertainment circle like Wu Chao.

But her outstanding appearance still attracts special attention.

Among all the female celebrities Wu Zhuo has seen since he traveled through time, she is definitely the most beautiful one.

In addition, after a preliminary chat, Wu Chao could feel that she had a very good personality.

The type that is not pretentious.

This made him feel very favorable towards Guo Biting.

Time always passes quickly when chatting with beautiful people of the opposite sex.

After a while, the time came to half past nine.

Director Sun Yang began to arrange staff to set up camera positions in the room.

Wu Zhuo felt it was awkward to watch, so he stopped chatting with Guo Biting and went to help the staff move the equipment.

Another half an hour passed before the machine was installed.

Sun Yang called Wu Chao and Guo Biting together and began to tell them about the filming content.

Although MVs are not scripted like TV dramas.

But there is still a general storyline.

The story of the MV "The Invisible Man" is very clichéd. It is about two lovers who were in love but broke up because of a quarrel.

No matter how old-fashioned it is, it still depends on whether the director can come up with something new and whether the male and female protagonists look good.

MVs are like this, the plot is simple and does not require any acting skills to support it, so it naturally relies on the looks of the male and female protagonists.

This is why most singers invite beautiful and handsome newcomers to play the leading roles.

In terms of appearance, Wu Zhuo and Guo Biting are obviously the best among them.

Therefore, Sun Yang attaches great importance to the shooting of this MV.

According to him, "We will shoot well and strive to be nominated for the Best Video at the Golden Melody Awards."

Of course, this is just for your reference.

This award is not so easy to get.

The focus of winning the award is not how they performed, but the quality of the songs and sales of Stefanie Sun's album.
