Chapter 15: Who Do You Look At and See a 'Rebel'

In the blink of an eye, Bai Liang had already been staying in the "War God Zhao Zilong" crew for a month.

His last scene was a pure action scene—riding the Red Hare horse and slashing around wildly, the cooler the better.

It sounded simple, but it was actually quite a hassle to film.

It took an entire afternoon of grinding to get it done.

The content of this scene was actually Lu Bu's first appearance in the drama.

After all, TV drama filming order generally doesn't follow the storyline—it mainly depends on the set and the characters' emotional states.

Filming scenes at the same location is for convenience and saving money, and character emotions are easier to understand—you can't film everyone laughing happily in one scene and then a parent-dying scene in the next, right?

Even if the actors' skills were superb, doing it this way would drain their energy and spirit too much, making it counterproductive.

For Bai Liang, this was also a good thing.

This was also when Bai Liang was at his strongest—the training results during this period were quite pleasing.

It lined up with the plot!

Lu Bu's appearance should naturally be at his fiercest, and later, worn down by wine and women, he'd grow thinner and haggard—nothing could be more reasonable.

Bai Liang felt the director's design was really impressive—he'd even factored in Bai Liang's training.

Sure enough, he's got the goods—no wonder he can be a director!

Director: Baa baa? I didn't know that?

Flipping down from the horse's back, a huge bouquet of flowers appeared before Bai Liang's eyes, along with a face as gorgeous as the flowers.

"Congrats on wrapping!"

"You're still in the crew?" Bai Liang said instinctively.

He hadn't seen Meng Ziyi these past two days and thought this Miss had wrapped and vanished.

After all, although she played the female lead Lin Shuner's maid, logically she could keep appearing alongside the female lead.

But she couldn't help that Lin Shuner was playing two roles.

The governor's daughter Xiahou Qingyi died, and Ma Chao's sister Ma Rou'er came online.

Lin Genxin playing Zhao Zilong could switch girlfriends, but Meng Ziyi's maid character couldn't exactly switch masters~

"What do you mean I'm still in the crew?!" Meng Ziyi's eyebrows shot up. "My character goes offline later than yours!"

"Did she die?"

"... Died."

"Then we're the same." Bai Liang said happily.

Meng Ziyi showed a subway-old-man-looking-at-phone expression—is a character dying really something worth being happy about?

Luckily her brain capacity wasn't that big, and she quickly found something to be happy about.

"Let's take photos! When you post on Weibo, you have to make me look good! You're not allowed to only beautify yourself!"

Seeing Meng Ziyi quickly scoot to his side, already ready for a group photo, Bai Liang satisfied her photo-taking desire first.

The problem was, he hadn't even registered for Weibo.

But this first TV drama wrap was indeed worth commemorating, so Bai Liang prepared to post the photo to his Moments.

Unlike Nazha's wrap, when she was in a rush to head to the next crew to film and left that afternoon.

An idle guy like Bai Liang with nothing going on actually held a wrap party.

Of course, the crew was still filming, so the scale was small—just the crew members closest to him.

Meng Ziyi specifically put on makeup before going in the evening, and froze for a moment when she entered the private room.

Apart from casting director Sun Qiang and male lead Lin Genxin, everyone was female.

Bai Liang's way of treating was very wild—besides the actresses, there were also crew hands and makeup artists.

The treating standard was quite egalitarian though.

Anyway, at this table, you couldn't see any so-called class distinctions of the crew.

But the one most reluctant to let Bai Liang slip away was actually Lin Genxin—although the gaming carry leaving meant they could duo queue remotely, it wasn't as fun as sitting side by side at an internet cafe.

After three rounds of drinks, a tipsy Sun Qiang, his face flushed from drinking, grabbed Bai Liang. "Bro, which crew are you joining next? I still have some connections in the industry, I can put in a word for you."

Next?

Bai Liang hadn't thought about that—he rarely considered any so-called future.

This time he came to act on a whim plus a fortunate coincidence. This drama might just be the swan song of his acting career.

But Bai Liang indeed had no plans to stay idle—acting was quite interesting, and if there was a chance to continue, of course he'd do it.

Anyway, he wasn't picky~ he'd play anything.

It's just that he didn't have connections in this area. He didn't really want to keep troubling that impressive Sister Yang.

"No work for now. If the crews you guys stay at later need people, just call me over~"

Bai Liang said it casually, and most people just casually laughed and agreed.

But some people actually took this to heart.

"So you have no work next?" Meng Ziyi quickly chimed in.

Bai Liang nodded. "But I'm planning to go to Yanjing first. A friend is filming there, going to visit him."

Visit a set?

Gulina Zha ran off to Yanjing to film?

Please... bookmark_(!)

Hearing this, Meng Ziyi shut up, picked up her drink from the table and started gulping~ seemingly trying to cover something up.

Lin Genxin started giving Bai Liang the thumbs-up again!

One look over, and you could read his meaning.

Badass, bro!

But Lin Genxin was a bit puzzled — hadn't Gulinnaza gone to report at the neighboring "Xian Jian: Yun Zhi Fan" production crew? At most she'd swing back to Tang Ren Pictures in Shanghai first; she couldn't possibly have run off to Yanjing, could she?

There's still a pretty little sister in Yanjing?

Obviously, everyone still thought Bai Liang and classmate Nazha had something going on. Probably the whole table thought so.

As a result, when the gathering broke up and it was past ten at night, Mencius saw Bai Liang's Moments post.

Just one photo!

A couple shot with her!

Bewilderment and pleasant surprise swirled in her heart at the same time, but right then her brain suddenly sharpened up.

This guy didn't set it to "visible to her only," did he? Scumbag?

At the same time, the photo itself was very loaded. Apart from the handsome guy and pretty girl, the key point was that only one person had been edited!

But unlike those common tacky sluts from the entertainment circle, Bai Liang hadn't edited himself — instead he'd given Mencius a slight beauty filter.

Just for that, before Mencius could suspect him of being a scumbag, she gave him a like first.

"Visible to only one person?"

Scumbag, reveal yourself!

As a result, after she posted that comment and exited, her phone buzzed.

It turned out to be a notification that someone else had liked it too. At that moment, Mencius's finger speed for deleting comments reached the peak of her life.

Pretending nothing had happened, she reposted a "flower" emoji.

After finishing, she lost all her strength and flopped back onto the bed. So close — she'd almost died of social embarrassment.

After she recovered, she sat there hugging her phone and started spacing out. She just couldn't figure it out!

Once her feet touched the ground, her clever IQ left the high ground again.

Luckily, there was someone else feeling far worse than her.

Nazha, who'd originally been preparing to go straight into the "Xian Jian: Yun Zhi Fan" crew, figured that since they were both filming in Hengdian, she could still sneak over to hang out, grab a meal with Bai Liang and the like.

But no sooner had she arrived at the crew than she got a notice — the crew's start was postponed, return to the company immediately.

After returning to Tang Ren Pictures, what faced her was boss Cai Yinong's indiscriminate fury.

Only then did Nazha realize something big had happened!

The company's scheduled popular young actor to replace Hu Ge, Jiang Jinfu — had rebelled!

After this incident, Tang Ren Pictures was a total mess; at this point Cai Yinong looked at everyone as if they were a "rebel."

Nazha was very flustered, because her recent co-star Lin Genxin was also one of the company's "rebels" — the other party had also left Tang Ren, and without even reaching the contract end-date had filed a lawsuit to terminate and run off.

After Cai Yinong gave her a few sessions of ideological instruction, she got home, opened Moments, and took a look.

The sky had collapsed!

Mencius, pressed up against Bai Liang — her smile was so damn radiant! ——
