After Transmigrating Into a Male Idol Talent Show

Chapter 122

Li Yanyu could clearly see that Director Liu Chanbei was taking care of Qin Lu. At least Mo Yizhi, who played the second male lead, didn't receive the same treatment and was only introduced to them by the director.

The main actors in the crew were all working together for the first time, so they were naturally a bit unfamiliar at the beginning. At least on the first day when they burned incense together with the crew, there was very little eye contact between them.

In summary, it was polite.

Qin Lu had fewer scenes, so he joined the crew a few days after shooting began. He had only briefly met the main actors before because the crew was generally superstitious. Therefore, he specially flew over to worship with the actors and staff. After worshiping, he hurried back to the company and didn't have time to greet the main actors properly or exchange a few words.

Except for Qin Lu, everyone else in the crew were experienced actors who were accustomed to diving straight into their roles from the first day, acting out deep emotional scenes as they gradually became more familiar with each other.

Qin Lu joined the crew last, being young and new, and Director Liu Chanbei was worried that he might have difficulty fitting in. The implication was quite clear: take care of him a little more.

Directors generally wouldn't refuse such requests, so Liu Yuzhi, the female lead, smiled amiably and said, "Qin Lu, right? You're seventeen? Eighteen?"

Qin Lu smiled and replied, "Seventeen."

"Ah... Ten years younger than me, so young," Liu Yuzhi, who was twenty-seven years old, looked very youthful and didn't seem much older than eighteen herself. Most of the roles she played were young and adorable characters, despite her age.

She actually wanted to transition to more mature roles, but sometimes looking young was both an asset and a limitation.

Qin Lu shook his head and simply said, "Teacher is also very young."

"Is that so?" Liu Yuzhi's fair skin and classical phoenix eyes curved like crescent moons when she smiled, exuding a gentle charm. "Then, don't call me teacher, I'm not really a teacher. If you don't know what to call me... um."

Liu Yuzhi smiled and blinked playfully. "How about calling me 'sister'?"

Qin Lu was momentarily stunned, and after a moment of silence, another voice interjected, "Director Liu, shall we start filming first? Is the first scene between Qin Lu and you?"

The two turned to look, and Li Yanyu, dressed in white Taoist robes, spoke frankly, "Let's talk after the scene. We can chat freely after we finish filming."

The atmosphere froze for a moment. Liu Yuzhi's smile paused briefly, but she quickly regained her composure and said, "Oh, sorry for talking too much. Shall we start?"

Director Liu Chanbei raised his hand and tapped Li Yanyu's shoulder with the script, easing the tension as he explained, "He doesn't talk much, but he's actually a nice person. Don't mind him."

Li Yanyu said, "Director, I can speak."

Director Liu Chanbei replied, "Just keep quiet."

Having worked with Li Yanyu before, Director Liu Chanbei knew his straightforward personality. Whether he liked or disliked something, he would show it openly, and he was particularly dedicated to his acting work, which could be considered a different kind of workaholic.

In fact, Liu Yuzhi might have thought that Li Yanyu had some opinions about her, but Director Liu Chanbei knew that Li Yanyu simply wanted to see if Qin Lu's acting skills were up to par for the role of Mu Yun.
