Chapter 183 The Jealous Man
Chapter 183 The Jealous Man
Ming Fei arranged for Yan Muhuai to play a role in a fantasy drama, in which he only had one episode.
"Although you don't have many scenes, the identity of the character you play is quite important. You are the previous life of one of the protagonists, and the other protagonist is the apprentice of this character. However, the actor acting opposite you is a very cute child star, who is the protagonist's childhood." This role can be said to have fallen from the sky. Although Ming Fei hasn't received the script yet, the character's information has already been sent to her mobile phone, and she forwarded it to Yan Muhuai.
Thirty-five, who was still sobbing after crying, replied, "Master of the Xianxia drama, the host is acting in his true colors."
Yan Muhuai looked at it and asked, "How do you know I am acting in my true colors?"
Although Rong Jin has always called him Master, and both of them have some powers that do not belong to this world, they have never told anyone else that they were people who returned from another world.
Thirty-five's words blurted out were somewhat abrupt and illogical.
"Eh? Master Host, weren't you a cultivator before? I heard Rong Jin always call you Master, and I thought that was the same identity in your previous life." Thirty-five had never heard Yan Muhuai say it in person, but it had naturally assumed so in its mind since some point in time.
"You guessed it right." Yan Muhuai saw Thirty-five's clear and stupid eyes and had nothing to ask.
Ming Fei nodded in agreement, "That's right, the director only asked you to play yourself, your appearance is suitable, and there are not many scenes, so he reserved two days for you to shoot, which is just enough to solve the two-day live broadcast of the variety show."
“With such a small role, it shouldn’t be an important one, right? Any comparable person can be used to handle the role. If it’s a drama directed by a big director, there would be many guest appearances.” Yan Muhuai just felt that this role came a little suddenly.
Ming Fei did not hide it, "You are right, this is indeed a drama directed by a big director, and it is a collaboration between two well-known directors in the industry. The whole drama has been almost filmed, and now we are reshooting some shots that we were not satisfied with before. It won't take long, and it will be released after the relevant departments approve it."
Because it is a big production with a backstage background, passing the review is a foregone conclusion, so reshooting became the last major step before the show was released.
“Indeed, there were many people who wanted to make a guest appearance, but they couldn’t get a spot. The role finally fell into your hands because Qu Liujing used his status as TV King to fight for you. By the way, the character you are playing is his previous life.” Of course, the reason Qu Liujing thought of getting a role for Yan Muhuai was because Ming Fei had informed him in advance.
Originally, Ming Fei thought that Yan Muhuai just wanted to stay in the circle and film variety shows and live a leisurely life, but who knew that he suddenly said that he wanted to develop seriously. He debuted as an actor and couldn't always be in variety shows.
It's just that Yan Muhuai's acting skills are a mystery at the moment, and Ming Fei thinks it's better to be conservative for now. It's a good opportunity for her to practice with this role that doesn't require any acting skills. As long as he changes his costume and stands in front of the camera, he can basically handle it.
Ming Fei’s only hope now is that Yan Muhuai’s acting skills won’t be as bad as Sanshiwu’s previous host’s. Otherwise, even if he has excellent external conditions, he may not be able to get a role that does not require acting skills.
"So, my role's scenes should have been filmed long ago, and wouldn't have been left to the last minute for reshoots, right?" Yan Muhuai asked again.
Ming Fei knew Yan Muhuai's abilities. Even if she didn't tell him, it wouldn't take him long to figure it out.
She simply didn't let him waste time thinking about it. "Your role was cast in Qin Shulang, and the filming was originally completed. But then it went wrong. The director was busy filming other things and didn't have time to take care of it. It just so happened that your role didn't need to be filmed outdoors, so it could be filmed in the set of the film and television city. So it was left until the end."
Qin Shulang is the star who had a chaotic private life and ended up running to the police side by side.
"There is one more thing. Although I don't think it will have any impact on you, I still want to tell you. The person who played your apprentice grew up to be Yan Xunyi, but you won't meet him on the set." Ming Fei didn't want to wait for Yan Muhuai to arrive on the set for filming. She would feel uncomfortable hearing this from other people.
Yan Muhuai didn't mind at all. "It doesn't matter. I don't have much hatred against him. As long as he doesn't provoke me, I don't have time to care about him."
But Thirty-Five felt something was wrong. "That idiot clearly coveted Rong Jin. He had always targeted my useless former host. Why is he suddenly so quiet now? Is he secretly planning some big move?"
Yan Muhuai smiled and said, "If that's the case, I'm looking forward to it. His previous behavior was too stupid. Besides, I can't tell that he is really interested in Rong Jin."
"I was forced by the old... ahem, the head of the Yan family." Ming Fei had dealt with Yan Xunyi a lot, and could see some of his helplessness.
For a moment, she forgot that Yan Fenglie, the head of the Yan family, was Yan Muhuai's biological father, and almost said such presumptuous words to the old man of the Yan family in front of him.
"What you said reminds me of one thing. When the previous host was arguing with Yan Xunyi at home about Rong Jin, the old man from the Yan family was watching right beside them and didn't try to stop them at all." Thirty-five was not as quick-witted as Ming Fei. He would say whatever he thought.
Besides, it was also very clear that Yan Muhuai did not take the Yan family seriously at all, and calling Yan Fenglie an old thing would not make him feel offended.
"I haven't seen that old guy, so I won't comment on it for now." Yan Muhuai brought the topic to filming, "We're going to the filming studio tomorrow, right?"
After Ming Fei responded, hesitantly asked Yan Muhuai, "Mr. Yan, do you think we should ask the boss about this?"
Yan Muhuai looked at her with some confusion. He did not think that Ming Fei was the kind of person who could not understand the situation. She would be like some people on the Internet who thought that Yan Muhuai was just hooking up with Rong Jin and was his appendage, who did not even have the freedom to take on a role of her own.
"No, Mr. Yan, please don't misunderstand me. What I want to say is that the boss is a jealous person. If he knew that you took such a role and became someone else's master, he would probably be jealous to death." Ming Fei knew her boss very well.
Rong Jin had to take on the task of teaching Rong Yu how to practice, not to mention that Yan Muhuai wanted to truly become someone else's master.
Yan Muhuai frowned slightly. He really hadn't thought of this. "Then don't let him know for now. He seems to be very busy recently. He has to go back to the old house to teach Rong Yu how to practice. It's only two days. I will try to finish the filming as soon as possible."
Ming Fei opened her mouth and wanted to say that Rong Jin would watch the live broadcast, but in the end she swallowed the words back.
Just watch it, and we’ll talk about it after we see it.
Besides, even if Rong Jin had seen it, he wouldn't dare rush to the set to stop Yan Muhuai from filming.
After things were settled, Yan Muhuai started researching the role he was going to play with his mobile phone.
Having lived two lives, he had to take his first acting role seriously.
