Chapter 833: Chapter 307: The Comedic Actress_4

Yang Chen: "Last year I acquired a lot of novel licenses, now I urgently need to adapt them into films or shows. If you have time, pick a novel you like and we’ll turn it into a TV drama."

Work came knocking, so Yang Dami was of course thrilled.

She quickly called Yang Chen.

Yang Dami: "Brother Chen, good evening. You want to turn novels into TV shows?"

Yang Chen: "Yes! Since last year I’ve been acquiring lots of popular novels, and now I have over a hundred licenses. If you have time, we can pick a few to adapt."

Yang Dami: "Which novel licenses do you have? Do you have the license for ’Eternal Love’?"

Yang Chen: "That one I’m not sure about. Which other novels do you like? Just list them all. If I have the license, we’ll start filming right away. If not, I’ll get someone to buy it, then we’ll film."

Yang Dami: "Brother Chen, isn’t that a bit too bold of you!"

Yang Chen: "Haha... I bought so many novel licenses because I want to adapt them into films. I’ve just been too busy before to deal with this. Later, help me connect with some celebrities, I want to start filming multiple projects at once."

Yang Dami: "Alright! I can’t immediately remember all the novels I like. Are you free tomorrow? I’m in Hai City shooting a period drama—if you have time, come visit the set and let’s have lunch or dinner to discuss."

Yang Chen: "Okay! I’ll come to the set tomorrow morning to find you. I’m hanging up, you seem busy; I hear it’s noisy on your end, sounds like work isn’t over yet."

Yang Dami: "Not yet. So it’s settled, see you tomorrow."

After hanging up, Yang Chen got up and went to the next room, knocking on Yu Shishi’s door.

Yu Shishi quickly pulled Yang Chen inside, smiling as she asked, "Sir, you’re here so late—is there something you need from Shishi?"

Yang Chen: "Yes! Send me the list of novels we’ve already bought the licenses for, I need it tomorrow."

Yu Shishi: "Is that all you need?"

Yang Chen: "Yes! There’s nothing else, just send it to me quickly."

Having said that, Yang Chen returned to his room.

Yu Shishi puckered her lips, feeling a bit disappointed.

The next morning, after the rush hour, Yang Chen went to Yang Dami’s set.

Arriving at the set, Yang Chen didn’t see Yang Dami, but he saw Xiaoyun.

"Oh boy, why is this fool here? Is she in the same drama as Yang Dami?" Yang Chen muttered to himself.

At that moment, Director Peng was explaining the scene to Zhang Xiaoyun and then asked her to perform it.

Director: "We start now, I’ll tell you, and you do it. You walk into a room, push open the door, yes, you see a dead body on the floor, you’re shocked and stagger backward, then scream while crawling out, stand up and run out to call someone."

Following the director’s instructions, Zhang Xiaoyun mimed opening the door, then suddenly widened her eyes and covered her mouth, screaming out loud, exaggeratedly sat down on the ground, slowly crawled a few steps, and then got up and sprinted as if in a hundred-meter dash.

Director Peng helplessly covered his forehead and shouted, "Stop! Stop, stop, stop!"

Can she really be an actress with this level?

Director Peng said helplessly, "Miss Zhang, you need to use your imagination. With a dead body in front of you, what should your reaction be?"

An actor without professional training, coming from a background of being an extra, it’s a challenge for her to comprehend the reaction to seeing a corpse.

Zhang Xiaoyun attempted ten or so different reactions, but couldn’t accurately convey fear and panic through her expressions and body language.

The director sighed helplessly, "This is troublesome, filming is going well, and suddenly inserting a role like this. Ay..."

Unhappy, Zhang Xiaoyun said, "Director, what do you mean? Are you saying I acted poorly? I’ve been taking lessons from professional acting coaches lately, are you dissatisfied with my acting?"

Director Peng: "But you can’t even portray the basic panic of losing your bearings in fear. Yang Dami’s schedule is very tight, if you waste time like this, we definitely can’t finish filming on time."

Watching from behind the crowd, Yang Chen loudly said, "Director Peng, who forcibly inserted this role?"
