Huayu started from the Three Kingdoms period

Chapter 80 Hello, Oppa

Xu Ying and the other two naturally had no objections and followed Manager Wang to the screening room next door.

The room wasn't big, but it was equipped with professional facilities.

The lights dimmed, the screen lit up, and a rough cut of "Love is Not Blind" began to play.

The film is fast-paced, and the opening fast cuts of several couples breaking up quickly grab the audience's attention.

Huang Xiaoxian's disheveled state in the office, Wang Xiaojian's sharp tongue and subtle care, all reveal the delicate yet slightly sarcastic emotions of urban men and women.

When the scene where Huang Xiaoxian calls her ex-boyfriend late at night after her breakup, her performance perfectly captured the humble yet resentful emotions, and Manager Wang nodded slightly in approval.

In the latter half of the film, the emotions gradually intensify, culminating in a climax during the scene where the characters confess their love under the building's lights.

The screening room was quiet, with only the sound of the movie echoing in the background.

The lights came back on as the end credits rolled.

Manager Wang was silent for a few seconds before speaking, "The film is good, very down-to-earth, and the characters are believable."

He looked at Xu Ying and said, "Director Xu's portrayal of Wang Xiaojian is quite good. He has a natural control over the character's energy, and his directing style is also quite steady."

Guo Fan quickly thanked him. Manager Wang continued, "This kind of low-budget, relatable urban theme is indeed lacking in the market right now. Chairman Han is very interested in these kinds of promising projects, so he specifically asked me to take a look."

He glanced at his watch. "Chairman Han's meeting should be almost over. I'll go check on it. Please wait a moment."

Manager Wang got up and left.

A few minutes later, the door was pushed open again, and Han Sanping walked in, this time heading straight for the empty seats in the front row of the screening room.

Manager Wang followed behind.

Han Sanping sat down and nodded to Xu Ying and the others as a greeting.

Then he said to Manager Wang, "Let's begin. Let's play the key paragraphs again, starting from where you were looking earlier."

Manager Wang signaled to his assistant to operate the screen, and several important scenes between Huang Xiaoxian and Wang Xiaojian reappeared on the screen, including their bickering in the office, resolving a crisis at the wedding, and their final confession under the lights.

Han Sanping watched intently, his fingers occasionally tapping lightly on the armrest.

Han Sanping pondered for a moment before speaking: "The film has a good idea and is well-made. It portrays young people talking about love in a way that is not exaggerated and feels real."

Manager Wang nodded.

Han Sanping stopped talking about the movie and instead turned his gaze to Xu Ying, a faint smile on his face.

"Xu Ying, right? I've seen your portrayal of Yu Xiaoqing. This transformation has been quite successful; your directing and acting are both convincing. Keep up the good work."

"Thank you for your recognition, Chairman Han," Xu Ying replied politely.

"Wang Jinhua said that a newcomer under her is working on a movie and asked me to take a look. She said your movie script is very good."

Sister Hua?

Xu Ying was slightly taken aback. She looked at Yang Siwei and found that she was also somewhat surprised.

Unexpectedly, Wang Jinhua even came to Han Sanye's place in person.

Han Sanping didn't say anything more. He got up, patted Manager Wang on the shoulder, and left the screening room.

After he walked away, Manager Wang's attitude became noticeably warmer, and he immediately finalized several publicity resources with Yang Siwei that he had previously hesitated about.

After leaving China Film Group, Yang Siwei immediately called Wang Jinhua to inquire about her situation.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Siwei looked at Xu Ying and said, "Sister Hua said you should go for it and she'll help with anything she can."

"Thank you, Sister Hua." Xu Ying still remembered what Wang Jinhua said back then. Sister Hua had indeed given a lot of support that enabled the movie to be completed so quickly.

Guo Fan breathed a sigh of relief, his face beaming with excitement. "I never expected that Third Master Han would come to watch the film and give it such a positive review."

Yang Siwei flipped through the newly revised letter of intent, a smile playing on his lips. "Now things should go much more smoothly."

"Junior brother, you can join the crew with peace of mind. Don't worry, with Xiao Yang helping out, there won't be any more problems later."

"I just don't know how many screenings there will be," Xu Ying said.

Actually, he had considered going directly to Wanda's cinema chain through Jing Tian, ​​but Han Sanping's arrival today changed his mind.

Let's just finish it at China Film Group, since Sister Fa has already stepped in.

It's okay if there are few screenings in the early stages; we can discuss the rest after the movie becomes popular.

Xu is very confident about this film.

......

The crew of the TV series "The Temptation to Go Home" in Shanghai.

The two female leads from the production team also arrived.

Choo Ja-hyun greeted Heo Eung with a smile, "Oppa, hello, my name is Choo Ja-hyun."

Li Caihua simply raised her head and gave Xu Ying a cold look, without saying anything more, clearly still not fond of him.

[Ding! You've gained two chances to win a prize by interacting with actresses Choo Ja-hyun and Lee Chae-hwa. Would you like to use them?]

The long-awaited system bell rang again, and Xu Ying was overjoyed, choosing to draw the item.

[Congratulations, host, you have acquired the skills: Korean and Cantonese.]

Korean?

What an unexpected bonus! Xu Ying smiled and greeted Qiu Cixuan in Korean.

"Oppa can speak Korean?" Choo Ja-hyun's eyes lit up, and she covered her mouth in surprise. She didn't expect that this young and handsome Chinese actor could speak Korean.

The familiar accent brought tears to her eyes, and she communicated with Xu Ying in Korean.

Soon, director Lin Tianyi gathered the lead actors to begin a script reading.

"Temptation to Go Home" is adapted from a Korean drama. The plot is melodramatic but the conflicts are intense. It is a typical family ethics revenge drama.

Xu Ying's portrayal of Hong Shixian, a scumbag, presents another challenge to his acting skills.

After all, he had previously played soldiers or emperors, so suddenly having to play a heartless man wavering between his wife and lover required him to adjust his mindset.

Director Lin Tianyi explained each scene, emphasizing the emotional conflicts and dramatic tension of the play.

At the reading session, actors such as Chi Shuai, Tu Liman, Zheng Yitong, and Lei Jiayin were also present.

Xu Ying listened while taking notes on the script, occasionally exchanging a few words of Korean with Qiu Cixuan beside him in a low voice.

Choo Ja-hyun plays Lin Pinru, who is gentle and kind in the early stages but turns evil and seeks revenge in the later stages. The character has a wide range, and she listened very attentively.

Li Caihua, who plays Ellie, always has a cold expression and only gives brief responses when it is her turn to act.

After the reading session, Lin Tianyi clapped his hands. "Everyone, go back and digest the script well. We'll officially start filming tomorrow."

"The first scene will depict Hong Shixian and Lin Pinru's daily married life. Xu Ying and Qiu Cixuan, you two get ready."

Choo Ja-hyun smiled and nodded, "Okay, director."

Xu Ying responded with a reply.

As they left the conference room, Choo Ja-hyun caught up with Heo Eung. "Oppa, how about we rehearse together tonight? My Chinese lines are still a bit rusty, and I'd like to practice more."

Before Xu Ying could answer, Chi Shuai walked over and said, "Ci Xuan, want to rehearse a scene together? I can teach you Chinese."

Choo Ja-hyun gave Chi Shuai a reproachful look. "I'm sorry, I've already made an appointment with Oppa. I'll be acting opposite you when it's our turn to film our scenes."

"Oppa?" Chi Shuai stared at Xu Ying in disbelief. No, who are you? How did you become Qiu Cixuan's oppa?

Xu Ying ignored Chi Shuai's murderous gaze, checked the time, and said, "Alright, let's find a quiet place."

When Lei Jiayin, who came out from behind, saw this scene, she grinned and showed off her big white teeth.
