Director Yang Lei's anger vanished instantly, replaced by a broad smile.

For directors, whether a work is full of jokes or not is not important; what matters is creating excellent works.

If you can secure investment, what does it matter if someone drinks your wine? You wouldn't mind being sent to a lavish feast!

"And Fang Xiaoxiao, I won't let you stay in the entertainment industry anymore either."

Duan Chengxuan smiled.

Director Yang Lei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Make sure to clean things up properly, and don't let the film crew get involved."

"Don't worry, do you think I'm as smart as that Fang Xiaoxiao?" Duan Chengxuan laughed. "I definitely won't step in myself."

If Duan Chengxuan were to openly post Fang Xiaoxiao's scene on his own account, Fang Xiaoxiao would definitely be finished, and he himself would most likely be greatly affected. After all, which celebrity wouldn't be afraid that if they had any conflicts with Duan Chengxuan in the future, wouldn't Duan Chengxuan pull such a stunt on them?

"Your entertainment industry is really full of tricks!"

Bai Ye laughed from the side.

"By the way, Mr. Bai, now that Fang Xiaoxiao is gone, her role can be given to Miss Su Cheng!"

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, director Yang Lei's mind raced, his eyes immediately lit up, and he said with a smile:

“Miss Su Cheng has already acted as Fang Xiaoxiao’s stand-in for a lot of scenes. Now, we just need to film some more close-up shots, which shouldn’t be a problem. Mr. Bai, you must help persuade Miss Su Cheng to take on the role. Otherwise, if we have to find someone to film Fang Xiaoxiao’s scenes now, the workload will be huge… Consider it a favor I owe you.”

"Director, what are you saying?" Bai Ye laughed. "It's Su Cheng's good fortune that you're willing to help her out. Consider this a favor I owe you."

Fang Xiaoxiao's role is that of the fourth female lead, and her screen time is quite substantial.

The reason director Yang Lei gave Su Cheng a chance was, of course, because of the larger part of the story of Bai Ye. Otherwise, it would have been much better to find a third-tier star or a big internet celebrity than to find a minor extra like Su Cheng. It wouldn't have been a complicated matter; it would have just been a matter of transferring the story that happened to Fang Xiaoxiao to someone else.

But isn't this related to Bai Ye?

“Mr. Bai, you’re exaggerating. You have a relationship with President Duan, and this film was invested in by President Duan. I’m just passing on his generosity.”

Director Yang Lei adopted a very humble attitude and spoke with a smile.

……

"What's so great about me, Duan Chengxuan? You'll see how powerful I, Fang Xiaoxiao, am in the future. We'll see how things develop!"

Fang Xiaoxiao packed her things, preparing to leave the film crew, all the while cursing and swearing.

It's like Duan Chengxuan dug up her family's ancestral graves.

Su Cheng, unaware that she was about to replace Fang Xiaoxiao as the fourth female lead in the drama, hurriedly entered Fang Xiaoxiao's room:

"Sister Xiaoxiao, I bought you the salad..."

Watching Fang Xiaoxiao pack her things, Su Cheng also sensed that something was amiss:

"Sister Xiaoxiao, what happened?"

"Su Cheng, are you still pretending with me?! You're really something else. How come I never realized you were such a talented actress before!"

Fang Xiaoxiao shoved the Sarah box that Su Cheng had brought back away, saying:

"Don't think I don't know, you're in cahoots with them!"

"Su Cheng, were you just waiting to see me make a fool of myself? Are you satisfied now?"

"Why aren't you hurrying over there and clinging to their coattails!"

Su Cheng looked completely bewildered and asked:

"Sister Xiaoxiao, what... what are you saying? What do you mean?"

"That means I'm not acting anymore, and I'm leaving right now!"

Fang Xiaoxiao picked up her suitcase and walked out.

"Hey!" Su Cheng grabbed Fang Xiaoxiao's arm and said, "Sister Xiaoxiao, you were acting so well, why do you suddenly want to leave?"

"Su Cheng, even now you're still putting on an act in front of me? Do you really think I'm a fool?"

Fang Xiaoxiao sneered and looked at Su Cheng, saying:

"You all just wait and see! It's just a lousy film crew and a lousy Duan Chengxuan. Wait for me, I'll be back sooner or later!"

After speaking, Fang Xiaoxiao shook off Su Cheng's hand.

"Oh, Sister Xiaoxiao!"

Su Cheng reached out and stopped Fang Xiaoxiao again, her face flushed with bitterness:

"Could you...could you give me this month's salary first?"

This month, Su Cheng bought snacks, coffee, milk tea, salads, and other things for Fang Xiaoxiao, all of which Su Cheng paid for herself. In addition to her salary, it must have cost at least seven or eight thousand yuan.

Judging from Fang Xiaoxiao's appearance, she was clearly being tricked by Duan Chengxuan and his group, and was taking her anger out on her...

"You still have the nerve to ask me for my salary?"

Fang Xiaoxiao glared fiercely at Su Cheng:

"Your skin is truly astounding, thicker than a city wall!"

Fang Xiaoxiao left without looking back.

Su Cheng was left behind, looking helpless and unsure of what to do.

She had put in so much effort and trouble for Fang Xiaoxiao for a month, even paying so much money out of her own pocket, and in the end…

"Oh my god, why am I so unlucky?"

Su Cheng looked mournful.

There's nothing we can do!

Fortunately, she still has her boyfriend, Bai Ye, by her side.

Su Cheng sighed, turned around, and headed towards Bai Ye's direction.

On the road.

Su Cheng ran into Mei Ting.

"Sister Mei."

Su Cheng quickly greeted them.

"Su Cheng, you're here!" Mei Ting smiled and said, "You've come at the right time, the director is looking for you!"

"The director... wanted to see me?"

Su Cheng pointed to herself in confusion.

I was just Fang Xiaoxiao's stand-in. Why would the director ask me to do something when Fang Xiaoxiao had already been fired?

ranwen.la

After thinking it over, Su Cheng could only conclude that it must be related to Bai Ye again.

“That’s right!” Mei Ting nodded with a smile and said, “Just now, Fang Xiaoxiao threw a tantrum and splashed wine all over the director’s face, so the director kicked her out of the crew. But her role was vacated, right? After the director thought of a suitable person, he thought you were the most suitable to replace Fang Xiaoxiao.”

"Me? I can't do it!"

Su Cheng quickly waved her hand and said:

"I'm just a stunt double, how could I possibly play the role of Sister Xiaoxiao well?"

"Su Cheng, don't be modest!" Mei Ting patted Su Cheng on the shoulder and said, "These days, everyone knows that you filmed almost all of Fang Xiaoxiao's scenes. She only filmed a few close-up shots. With her being kicked out, it's the perfect thing for you to replace her."

"Can……"

“Silly girl, you don’t always have to see things so clearly,” Mei Ting said. “I know that without your boyfriend, Mr. Bai, you, an ordinary person, couldn’t possibly take over Fang Xiaoxiao’s role, but are you really being too clear-cut about these things?”

"Think about it carefully. Your boyfriend is not a simple person. He is either rich or noble. Yet you, his girlfriend, are working as an extra on film sets every day and being bullied by some minor internet celebrities. And he just stands by and watches. Where do you put his face and dignity?"

Su Cheng hesitated for a moment.

She wasn't the kind of person who was so old-fashioned that she couldn't think straight.

Actually, all she wanted was for her relationship with Bai Ye to be pure and simple.

Upon hearing Mei Ting's words, Su Cheng realized that her lack of motivation was affecting not only herself but also Bai Ye.

"I understand."

Su Cheng bowed to Mei Ting:

"Then please give me your guidance, Sister Mei."

"Don't worry, you can do it." Mei Ting looked at Su Cheng's well-behaved and sensible appearance and felt a surge of affection for her. She said, "These past few days, your acting skills have been consistently up to par."

The two returned together to Bai Ye and the others.

Bai Ye smiled and said, "Su Cheng, you've come back just in time..."

"I've already heard about it from Sister Mei Ting."

Su Cheng first bowed to director Yang Lei again:

"Thank you for your guidance, director. I will definitely work hard."

"You're too kind, you're too kind."

Director Yang Lei pushed up his glasses and smiled:

"It's all because Su Cheng, your acting skills are excellent and you leave a deep impression, which is why I thought of you first. This is what they mean by 'hard work pays off,' right?"

"Ok!"

Su Cheng nodded without saying anything more.

Words are the least valuable thing in the world.

She cherished the director's kindness in supporting her.

"Oh, right." Bai Ye suddenly thought, "If Su Cheng is going to act in Fang Xiaoxiao's drama, should she still participate in Xingyu's talent show?"

“That’s not a problem,” Director Yang Lei quickly said. “Actually, Fang Xiaoxiao’s scenes have already been mostly filmed. Next, I’ll rush to finish filming Su Cheng’s scenes within two days, which will definitely not delay her participation in Chengxuan Company’s talent show.”

He's here to do someone a favor, not to hold them back.

"Brother Baiye, please rest assured. Since Old Yang has said so, there will definitely be no problem."
