Huayu: Nobody understands top celebrities better than me.

"Sister Shuang".

Just as Lin Yu was lost in thought, Dilraba awkwardly spoke to a girl who suddenly walked over to her.

Upon hearing this address, everyone present was taken aback, and Yang Mi's face quickly darkened.

These two people didn't actually have any grudges before filming "Swords of Legends".

However, after Shuangzi made some remarks during an interview with Yang Mi, the two quickly began to argue in the public sphere.

By suddenly launching a counterattack against Yang Mi, a top-tier actress, Zheng Shuang initially caught her completely off guard.

But with her large fan base, the fact that she was able to be overshadowed by Yang Mi speaks volumes.

In the public opinion arena, Shuangzi is indeed losing ground. If it weren't for Tianyu's backing and her ridiculously strong public image at the moment, she would be in a much worse situation.

She probably would have posted an apology statement on Weibo a long time ago.

"Reba, Sister Mi." Shuangzi spoke clearly, but there was little emotion in her voice.

Yang Mi nodded at her, but didn't even open her mouth.

"This is...?" Sawako didn't speak, but the woman who had been by her side spoke up, her eyes fixed on Lin Yu with undisguised scrutiny.

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes, but seemed not to have heard, and continued to lean against his stool.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

Since Shuangzi became famous overnight through "Meteor Shower", the entertainment industry is a circle where people help each other out, and everyone who comes here treats her with great respect.

Being treated like air by Lin Yu was really annoying her.

Seeing her mother's expression, Shuangzi pursed her lips. Just as she was about to go forward and ask, she saw Lin Yu turn his head away.

"You mean me?" he said, pointing to himself with a playful glint in his eyes.

Liu Yan quickly calmed herself down and nodded.

"I am Lin Yu, the second male lead in this drama." He didn't say the character's name, but rather the character's status.

For someone like Liu Yan, she might not even recognize the character's name.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yan was indeed taken aback, but a smile then appeared on her lips: "Ah~ it's Xiao Lin, I've heard so much about you."

She exchanged pleasantries with Lin Yu.

only···

I've never even heard of you before; I've never been on a single TV show.

Lin Yu mentally scoffed, but he didn't have a good impression of this woman who was imposing her own dreams on her daughter.

However, he wasn't some kind of arrogant genius who would just kill anyone he didn't like; he still had to give proper warnings.

"Thank you." Lin Yu said thank you, then sat back down in his chair and continued reading the script.

Liu Yan frowned, but pulled Shuangzi away.

Lin Yu vaguely heard a sentence.

"See, you're not famous enough, so others dare to treat your mother like this..."

The voice wasn't loud; probably only Xu Yan and Lin Yu could hear it. Anyone further away probably wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yan's smile froze instantly, clearly taken aback by the other party's words.

Reba and Li Yifeng, who saw Lin Yu talking to Liu Yan, both looked like they had seen a ghost.

Although Shuangzi isn't a top-tier celebrity right now, her status is definitely not low.

Lin Yu's actions showed no respect for the other party whatsoever. While he didn't completely offend them, he certainly wouldn't be on good terms with them!

Yang Mi, meanwhile, stood to the side, observing Lin Yu with great interest.

If Lin Yu knew what these people were thinking, he would probably laugh out loud.

None of those who had a good relationship with Shuangzi met a good end in later generations.

Just take her two ex-boyfriends for example; one of them is now banned from eating beef noodles for life.

The other one is like someone with a criminal record; she gets scolded for even the smallest relationship.

People may befriend cats and dogs, but have you ever heard of befriending a time bomb?

···

Filming is progressing smoothly.

As filming progressed, Lin Yu's relationship with everyone on set became increasingly harmonious.

Sawako still seems somewhat isolated from the world, but no one would go looking for trouble with her.

After another scene ended, Lin Yu walked briskly towards the costume room.

He was muttering to himself, "Off work, off work."

"Xiao Lin." A voice with a strange accent called out to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu turned his head and realized that Liang Shengquan had appeared behind him at some point.

"Director Liang? What's wrong? Is there something you need?"

Liang Shengquan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I have a gathering tonight. Come over, and I'll introduce you to some investors and directors."

Lin Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded decisively.

Since they wanted to give him some preferential treatment and do him a favor, Lin Yu naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Okay! Where is the location? What time?" Lin Yu nodded.

Liang Shengquan waved his hand with a smile: "You'll come with us tonight."

Lin Yu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

dusk.

Lin Yu changed into more formal attire and then took Xu Yan to the agreed-upon meeting place in the hotel lobby.

At the same time, Yang Mi, Dilraba Dilmurat, Li Yifeng and other leading actors also arrived.

About five or six minutes later, Liang Shengquan came out of the room, glanced at everyone, and quickly nodded.

"Yang Mi, take a carload of Dilraba."

"Li Yifeng, you ride in the same car as Ma Tianyu. Xiao Lin, I, and Lao Huang will ride in the same car."

He quickly made the arrangements, and Xu Yan was left in Yang Mi's car.

When Ma Tianyu and Li Yifeng heard that Lin Yu was in the same car as the director, they were both taken aback.

Ma Tianyu is alright, though, since he wasn't originally going to pursue a career as a director.

But when Li Yifeng saw Lin Yu quickly get into the passenger seat of the car, he almost ground his teeth to powder.

It's bad enough that her acting is overshadowed by him on set, but how come she's still overshadowed by him even when they're out of the film set, and she even has to ride in the same car as this third male lead?!

Who exactly is the male lead?!

Li Yifeng felt resentful, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.

However, even if he did say it, Liang Shengquan probably wouldn't care.

After all, it's your acting skills that are inferior to others!

"Director, what event are we participating in? The whole crew is here," Lin Yu asked.

Upon hearing this, Huang Junwen couldn't help but smile.

"It's not just the entire crew; I estimate that everyone in Hengdian with a name or reputation has arrived."

Lin Yu was even more confused. What kind of activities were happening in Hengdian? He hadn't heard of any.

Liang Shengquan couldn't help but chuckle: "It was a private party hosted by several film crews and their officials. There are many such parties, almost every year."

Lin Yu raised an eyebrow; he knew nothing about this in his previous life.

That makes sense, considering he was just an extra in his previous life; how could he have access to such a social gathering full of high-quality connections within the industry?

"Once you're inside, you'll stay with us. I'll introduce you to some directors and producers."

Huang Junwen spoke loudly, and Lin Yu quickly put on a smile.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, sir."
