Chapter 68: Chapter 68: The Treasure Dug Up from Where
Bai Leyao repeatedly NGing made her feel quite sorry for Yuran, and now that her brother had said something, she felt even more guilty, grasping Yuran’s hand.
"Ranran, believe me, although I’m a bit useless, I can still be saved!"
Yuran smiled, comforting her, "It’s okay, take it slowly, I’ll guide you!"
The revised script made the story simpler, the song’s tone was rather sad, and the MV did not need to be so melodramatic.
After resting for half an hour, Yuran stood with Bai Leyao under the camera as Bai Shaoyu sat next to the director, focusing on the monitor. The director exclaimed, "Where did you dig up such a treasure?"
"Who are you talking about?" asked Bai Shaoyu.
The director gave Bai Shaoyu a ’stop joking’ look, "Bai Shaoyu, don’t play coy with me. I’m not poaching from your family, but just look at this Yuran.
Most girls, on their first acting job, not to mention amateurs, sometimes even professionals can stand in the wrong spot.
But look at her, since we started filming, have I needed to point anything out to her? Standing positions, lighting, the spots she needs to move to, she seems to have a clear understanding, without needing any hints from me.
That’s not the important part; the important part is that she understands! She knows how she should look in whatever state to be most photogenic."
Bai Shaoyu had initially felt that Yuran was having it too easy, almost surprisingly so, but now, after listening to the director, he realized it was true. The assistant director was continuously directing Bai Leyao on where to move and what actions to take.
But Yuran handled almost everything on her own.
Moreover, she memorized her lines extremely quickly, nearly performing without a script.
Seeing that Bai Shaoyu didn’t respond, the director continued, "With such talent, making an MV seems beneath her. Doesn’t your company plan to have her act in films? Let me tell you, someone with her gifts will only remain on the small screen for two years, tops. After that, she’s bound to stand out."
"She isn’t part of our company!" Bai Shaoyu squinted, contemplating as he watched Yuran.
The director looked at him in astonishment, "Really, Bai Shaoyu? With such promising talent, you won’t sign her?"
"You also know that Bai Group’s focus isn’t in the industry. My sister’s studio is just for her pleasure!"
The MV director, Li Kuan, had a good reputation and credibility within the online drama circle. It was well-known that in the hierarchy of drama platforms, cinema was the largest screen, followed by television, and then online dramas, which ranked as the smallest.
However, as the industry was booming, and if the performances were impressive, the audience was receptive, and sometimes online dramas could even overshadow television shows in terms of popularity.
Li Kuan felt it was a pity, "What a waste! I’ll ask her later if she’s interested in acting in my new web series!"
"I’m afraid even if she’s interested, she might be unwilling!" Bai Shaoyu said, not knowing why he had such intuition.
Li Kuan’s confidence was shaken, he said with displeasure, "Bai Shaoyu, that’s not fair. I haven’t even started, and you’re already discouraging me!"
Bai Shaoyu shook his head, "It’s not that I’m trying to discourage you, Li Kuan. It’s just that this girl, Yuran, is very stubborn. Do you know why we had to shoot our MV today?"
Li Kuan shook his head.
Bai Shaoyu continued, "Because today is Yuran’s only day off. For the past six days, her class schedule was packed. She didn’t have free time, so we worked around her timing."
Li Kuan: "...It’s worth it!"
Bai Shaoyu nodded, "After hearing your analysis, it really is worth it!"
Li Kuan, "Which school has such a busy schedule?"
"Diwai!"
Li Kuan nodded in understanding, "No wonder, students from good schools rarely are willing to sacrifice their study time for acting!"
