But clearly, Xu Fan had no intention of explaining.

Xu Fan completely ignored the various rumors circulating online; for him, these things were utterly insignificant.

He wanted to make a good TV series not only because he wanted to make an anti-corruption drama, but also because he knew that the impact of such a drama would be huge.

Besides that, the most important thing is the requirements of Mr. Zhao and Mr. Kong. The TV series script has been approved. In a sense, as long as there are no problems with the editing and filming, this TV series will surely bring surprises to everyone.

It's only temporary; for others, Xu Fan is taking too much of a risk.

For Xu Fan, the most important reason for choosing veteran actors to film TV series is not only that many contemporary stars do not participate.

The two most important reasons are that if Xu Fan wants to make movies, they will all participate, but they need to carefully consider TV series, since it is very likely that the project will be halted after filming is completed, which would not only waste time but also affect their mentality.

The most important reason, of course, is that the anti-corruption drama genre simply doesn't have a large audience.

It's not that no one has ever made this type of TV series before, but none of them really succeeded. It's not that those TV series were bad, but rather that their target audience was limited.

Therefore, many of the currently popular TV drama stars in the entertainment industry are unwilling to participate, so Xu Fan had to settle for second best and choose someone with acting skills who is no longer in the entertainment industry.

Regardless of which reason Xu Fan chooses to leave the entertainment industry, that's not something he needs to consider. He only needs to consider whether his acting skills are up to par, whether his character is acceptable, and most importantly, whether his audition went smoothly.

As long as these things are fine, that's enough for him.

Besides these reasons, Xu Fan chose veteran actors for another reason: this anti-corruption drama is fundamentally different from many other anti-corruption dramas.

The reason is that the content of this TV series is too advanced, and many of the topics are too sophisticated for young actors to handle, so we had to find some veteran actors.

Of course, these are the reasons why he chose veteran actors. So far, the results have been quite good. At the previous meet-and-greet, almost everyone who was going to participate in the film auditioned.

Basically, every veteran actor has absolutely no problem with their acting skills, which gave Xu Fan a lot of confidence in this filming.

The news continues to spread online, and countless people are discussing it.

Even some well-known directors in the entertainment industry are not optimistic about Xu Fan's foray into television dramas.

A well-known TV drama director, who had directed many classic TV dramas, was originally unwilling to do this, but because his previous anti-corruption TV drama had flopped, he felt that he should stand in the position of a senior and remind this up-and-coming talent.

So he said on Weibo: "Young people nowadays are ambitious but lack goals. They want to make TV dramas, especially anti-corruption dramas. It's ridiculous. As an experienced TV drama director, I sincerely tell you, don't make them. Nobody will watch them."

This director has a huge influence in the television industry, but this time he didn't think things through carefully and just said whatever came to mind.

He felt that what he said was indeed the truth, and that his persuasion was, in a sense, a kind of helplessness in the face of his own failure.

Because he saw Xu Fan succeed time and time again, he even doubted whether Xu Fan could succeed. If Xu Fan succeeded, would it prove that he was not capable?

Whatever the reason, he did post those words.

These words appeared on Weibo and were quickly spread to various online platforms by busybodies. Whether it was Weibo, Douyin, or other platforms, the director's fame instantly went viral online.

Some people support it, while others oppose it.

Some people think the director's point is valid. Not everyone can make a good TV series. He's been in the industry for so many years, and his anti-corruption drama flopped. As a director who has crossed over from other fields, what ability does Xu Fan have to claim that he can make a good TV series?

The number of people discussing it increased again, and naturally, Xiaoyuer and others who had been following Weibo news noticed it.

So, Xiaoyuer immediately told Zhao Feiyang the news.

After carefully examining the issue, Zhao Feiyang realized the matter was serious. He rushed to the film set, found Xu Fan who had already started filming, and after a shot was finished, he quickly went up to him and said, "Old Xu, stop for a moment."

Just as Xu Fan was about to have the next group start filming, he suddenly heard Xu Fan's voice, which made him frown and quickly ask, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Feiyang said, "Something has happened, come over here for a moment."

Xu Fan understood Zhao Feiyang's meaning. After all, they were on set with many people around, so he stood up and said to the actors next to him, "Please take a look at the script first. I'll be right back."

Following Zhao Feiyang to the side, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey Fatty, what's up? Why are you acting so suspiciously?"

Zhao Feiyang didn't waste any words and directly handed the Weibo message to Xu Fan, saying, "Take a look for yourself."

Xu Fan was stunned for a moment, but didn't think much of it. He picked up his phone and looked at it carefully, only to find that so many people on the internet didn't approve of his TV series.

The director, in particular, sent a message directly.

What seemed like a well-intentioned reminder actually harbored some ulterior motives. Zhao Feiyang, standing to the side, asked with some concern, "What should we do?"

Xu Fan thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about it for now. Let the news spread online for a while. There are still a few shots here. I'll handle them after I finish filming here."

After saying that, Xu Fan added, "By the way, have Xiaoyuer and the others handle it simply online. Although it won't have a big impact, if there's enough buzz, it might even be considered a form of publicity."

Zhao Feiyang understood Xu Fan's meaning, nodded, and said, "Okay, don't forget to take care of it later."

After saying that, Zhao Feiyang left, and Xu Fan didn't think too much about it and went back to continue filming.

The biggest difference between filming a TV series and filming a movie lies in the plot development, while the filming process and acting are actually quite similar.

Therefore, Xu Fan started filming immediately, and each of the actors performed very seriously.

Soon, after the recent shots were over, Xu Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief and told everyone to take a break before turning on his phone.

He posted a message on Weibo that was simple yet deeply moving.

He said, "Just because you can't take good pictures doesn't mean I can't."

===Chapter 702 Plot Summary===

Filming for the TV series has been confirmed to begin.

Xu Fan naturally wouldn't stop filming because of the rumors circulating online.

Although the opening ceremony was relatively simple, for Xu Fan, every minute was precious in this TV series filming that had to be completed quickly.

After finalizing some important matters with Zhao Feiyang, Xu Fan returned to the filming location.

"clap clap"

Xu Fan clapped his hands, then looked at everyone and said, "Alright, everyone get ready, we're going to continue filming the next scene. Hey, Xu Shan, how's your script memorization going?"

Xu Fan turned his gaze to Xu Shan, who was rehearsing his lines not far away, and asked him this question.

Xu Fan snapped out of his daze, quickly put the script away, and walked over, a smile playing on his lips as he said, "It feels about right, but there are still some details that need careful consideration."

Although Xu Shan and Xu Fan are from the same family, they are not brothers. In this TV series, Xu Fan is even the direct leader.

After all, at this moment, Xu Shan was just an actor, while Xu Fan was a director.

They may seem to have no superior-subordinate relationship, but in reality, they have an inseparable direct relationship.

Xu Shan's respect for Xu Fan was not only because Xu Fan invited him to participate in the filming of this TV series, but also because it was an acknowledgment of the good movies Xu Fan had recently made.

Therefore, he acted very proactively.

Xu Fan smiled and said, "The role you play is actually very important in this TV series. Whether it's in Yanjing or when you get into a car accident later, you need to pay attention to the details. You need to carefully study everything, from your expressions and movements to even the subtlest emotions in your clothes."

Xu Fan didn't speak from the perspective of a teacher, nor did he speak from a superior position.

He genuinely and in a very serious and approachable manner, as a director, told Xu Shan about some issues he needed to pay attention to in order to play the role well.

Xu Shan was well aware of Xu Fan's meaning.

Whether it's the movie "Dying to Survive" or his first film "Lost and Found," Xu Fan's abilities in directing and acting have already completely won him over.

So at this moment, Xu Fan's words were like listening to a lecture from his favorite teacher, which he found very helpful.

Xu Fan nodded, then looked at everyone and continued, "Photographer, lighting technician, sound engineer, are you ready?"

"Ready."

"no problem."

"arrow"

As soon as Xu Fan asked the question, others around him quickly replied with the same message.

Xu Fan nodded in satisfaction, then walked up to Leng Xiaogu, who was studying her lines not far away, and gently patted her on the shoulder.

This simple action was surprisingly small and light.

But Leng Xiaogu was still so frightened that she jumped up and couldn't help but scream.

Xu Fan asked curiously, "Am I scary?"

Upon hearing Xu Fan's voice, Leng Xiaogu also saw that Xu Fan was standing behind her.

Completely absorbed in memorizing her lines, she really didn't expect Xu Fan to suddenly appear. At that moment, she quickly smiled and said, "Brother Fan, what brings you here? I was memorizing my lines and didn't notice you."

Xu Fan nodded and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I just saw you were working so hard here, so I thought I'd check you out."

Leng Xiaogu nodded repeatedly, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "Brother Fan, look at me, I can't even remember my lines."

Xu Fan was taken aback, but couldn't help laughing and saying, "I'm the director, you're the actor. If I don't look at you, who am I looking at?"

Leng Xiaogu chuckled and said, "That's acting. I'm just memorizing my lines."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fan realized that it seemed to make sense.

But he still said very seriously, "Actually, memorizing lines is a basic skill for an actor, but Xiao Gu, you need to know that the most important thing in acting is to immerse yourself in the play, whether it's emotions, expressions, or actions. Only when you immerse yourself in the play can it be a good play."

At this point, Xu Fan seemed worried that Leng Xiaogu might not understand, so he added, "Simply put, your lines are just the screenwriter's, or rather, just my feeling when I was writing the script. But in the actual acting process, you can make some appropriate adjustments yourself."

Leng Xiaogu nodded thoughtfully, and then Xu Fan continued, "These adjustments naturally cannot be too drastic, nor can they go completely against the original plan. Instead, they should expand on a deeper level of emotional expression within your original scenes. This is what you will need to learn later."

This time, Leng Xiaogu clearly understood the meaning behind Xu Fan's words.

However, she is well aware that she still needs to work hard to truly immerse herself in the role, even though she has already won the Best Newcomer Award.

But he was even more aware that every actor standing in front of him today was a true veteran in the film industry.

If we take each person out individually and simply look at this old man, perhaps most of these old men would still be hard to find on the street.

However, if you delve deeper into their works and their acting skills, you will find that they have already mastered them thoroughly.

Their acting skills are already superb.

Therefore, facing so many veteran actors, Leng Xiaogu, as a new generation actress, naturally felt very nervous.

This is why she puts herself completely into memorizing lines, fearing that her acting skills might be insufficient and cause her co-stars to get stuck in a cycle of memorization.

If that's the case, she would definitely feel very guilty.

Therefore, she hopes that even if she cannot do it perfectly, she can at least make it easier for the veteran actors to perform it once less.

Xu Fan patted Leng Xiaogu on the shoulder reassuringly before saying, "Keep it up! We're about to start. I'm going to check on the others."

Leng Xiaogu nodded and said earnestly, "I'll do my best."
