Fu Wenze said mockingly, “Just forget it. Don’t waste my time. Your capabilities are limited. Besides, this is just a drama. There’s no need to be so troublesome.”
Song Ci stared at him.
“Uncle Fu, are you not confident?”
Fu Wenze replied scornfully, “Not confident? Alright, let’s redo the scene.”
After saying that, Fu Wenze looked at Director Zhao.
“Director Zhao, you should keep a better eye on your actors and actresses. They’re lacking.”
Director Zhao frowned. He had no idea why Fu Wenze was lashing out. What happened? Did he become serious because things were coming to an end?
Song Ci and Fu Wenze quickly reshot their scene.
However, Song Ci still fell behind. Director Zhao even yelled “cut”and asked them to start from the beginning.
Lin Ting was confused.
“What’s going on? Song Ci actually failed a scene twice?”
Lu Jingming did not answer. He looked at Fu Wenze and could tell the latter was doing it on purpose.
Director Zhao noticed this too and let the scene progress without any disruption. He had no plans to go along with Fu Wenze’s shenanigans.
After watching the recording, Song Ci unexpectedly said, “Let’s do it again.”
Director Zhao pulled her back and said in a low voice, “Can’t you see? He’s doing this on purpose.”
Obviously, Director Zhao was still very fond of Song Ci. Her acting skills were good and she often helped out others. She made his life as a director much easier.
At first, Director Zhao thought the young crew members would scheme against each other. Fortunately, he was wrong. They were hard workers with good temperaments. Therefore, he tried his best to look out for them.
Director Zhao did not know what was going on, but he subconsciously sided with Song Ci.
Song Ci whispered back, “It’s fine. I just wanted to practice my acting skills. Uncle Fu had never been so serious before. I’d like to seize this opportunity.”
Director Zhao fell silent. Song Ci was right. The other crew members were too weak in comparison to Fu Wenze.
‘If Song Ci wants to practice, I shouldn’t stop her.’
With that in mind, Director Zhao allowed Song Ci to do as she pleased. He was clearly biased toward her.
Fu Wenze did not realize that he had become Song Ci’s tool and kept acting.
By the fourth shot, Song Ci was already gradually catching up.
Director Zhao sighed in his heart. Song Ci was truly talented. Regardless, he still shouted, “Cut!”
Lu Jingming and Lin Ting were puzzled. At this point, they could no longer see the difference between Song Ci and Fu Wenze’s performances.
The crew slowly gathered around. Song Ci had helped almost everyone. Hence, they had a good impression of her. Even though Song Ci’s performance was “not on par”, no one felt that her acting was bad. They could only sigh.
“Song Ci is really serious…”
“Yeah…”
“Is there something wrong with my eyes? I don’t see the difference between their acting…”
“The fault must lie within Uncle Fu, right? After all, he’s already old…”
When Fu Wenze heard those words, he almost exploded.
‘I show up on set even though I��m sick. Yet, these people are praising Song Ci! Are they blind? Also, why didn’t Director Zhao criticize her? This is bullsh*t!’
Fu Wenze’s subtle plan to humiliate Song Ci did not work.
Fu Wenze was so angry that his hands began to tremble. It affected his performance.
“Cut!”
