Chapter 108

~8 min read 1,410 words

"You didn't come over just to confirm if I'm your boss, did you?"

Gao Ye and Long Ni felt a moment of slight embarrassment, and just as they didn't know what to say.

Mu Chen already waved his hand:

"Alright, go back to your work!"

"No need to pay special attention to me!"

"But if you're uncomfortable on set or get bullied, tell me!"

"Don't hide it; our people don't bully others, but we shouldn't be bullied either!"

Hearing Mu Chen's obviously domineering words.

The embarrassment on Gao Ye and Long Ni's faces instantly faded, replaced by excitement and gratitude.

Even if it was just talk, having a boss like this was enough to make one feel at ease.

Gao Ye: "Thank you, Boss, we're doing very well on set!"

Long Ni: "The director and the others are quite nice to us too!"

"That's good!"

Mu Chen nodded and then looked at Li Li Yitong.

"And you?"

"Are you also here to see if I'm that Mu Chen?"

Li Li Yitong also felt a bit embarrassed.

Being called out like that.

But thinking about what Mu Chen just said to those two, it was indeed quite domineering.

And a bit protective of his own.

If she were a little girl, she might have been moved to tears instantly.

But just because of that, it shouldn't have been enough to make that woman Jin Chen fall for him!

At this moment, she nodded and said:

"I was indeed a bit curious, after all, everyone says you're the most handsome in the entire entertainment industry!"

"Disappointed?"

Mu Chen also smiled.

Li Li Yitong nodded and then shook her head:

"Not disappointed!"

"I was a bit surprised at first!"

"But then I thought of what Little Little Chenchen told me, and I suddenly realized you might have dressed like this on purpose for the character in the drama!"

"So I was both curious and pleasantly surprised!"

"Little Little Chenchen? Jin Chen?"

Li Li Yitong nodded.

Mu Chen understood a bit instantly.

Then he smiled and said:

"What did she say about me?"

Li Li Yitong hesitated slightly.

Then she said:

"She said you look ugly for fun, and then you become handsome again!"

"She even got tanned because of it!"

Mu Chen thought of Jin Chen's expression when she complained, and he chuckled.

"That silly woman!"

Immediately, Mu Chen shook his head and looked at Li Li Yitong, saying pointedly:

"To perform something well, you always have to make sacrifices!"

"She performed very well in that drama of hers!"

"I hope your acting skills can also live up to your price!"

After saying that, Mu Chen walked straight inside.

He sat in the best viewing spot that Xu Xu Jizhou had specifically arranged for him.

Li Li Yitong was left standing there.

Her face turned red and then blue.

What does he mean by "hope your acting skills can live up to your price"???

Was I looked down upon???

What's so great about him!

Isn't it just changing his image to fit the character?

Can't I do that too?

So annoying!!!

Just as Jin Chen said, he's a big jerk.

I'll have to see what his acting is like in a moment!

It wasn't just her.

Everyone was actually staring at Mu Chen.

After all, no one else had such a grand entrance.

However, the scenes being filmed first weren't Mu Chen's.

They were other people's scenes.

Xu Xu Jizhou was still very professional.

The scenes he started with weren't very difficult either.

Mu Chen watched casually and didn't go up to give deliberate guidance.

They weren't major scenes; as long as they were passable, it was fine.

If you really wanted to...

For a TV series, that would be a waste of time and money.

Most importantly, interjecting in such small segments.

Actually makes one look a bit showy, and a bit low-class!

Half an hour later.

It was finally Mu Chen's turn.

It was also a simple segment.

For such a simple scene, even with Mu Chen's top-tier acting and charming villain persona.

To say that a simple segment would shock everyone?

That would be a bit far-fetched.

And for many people with mediocre acting skills, you can't really feel anything from such segments.

After Mu Chen passed it in one take.

Everyone had only one feeling.

It was too real!

It was too smooth!

The acting was incredibly natural.

They felt as if they were seeing a real fishmonger, normally starting his daily life.

But professional actors are different.

Zhang Yi was watching curiously from the side.

After watching this segment of Mu Chen's acting, his eyes lit up slightly.

Others might not see anything.

But only someone at his level of a Best Actor could tell.

How awesome is it for an actor to perform a scene so that everyone doesn't even feel like it's acting!!!

Anyway, Li Li Yitong didn't see it.

Perhaps she was still holding onto a bit of anger.

After watching a segment, she just whispered:

"It's just one take, it's not like it's a very difficult scene!"

"What's so great about it!"

Two or three consecutive scenes were Mu Chen's.

But none of them were challenging.

Everyone seemed to understand, yet also didn't seem to understand.

The only feeling was that whenever Mu Chen finished acting, the director would praise him endlessly.

But many people didn't know why such a simple segment was worth so much praise.

Just because it was Mu Chen?

The investor of the whole drama???

Li Li Yitong saw Zhang Yi watching intently.

She couldn't help but lean over and ask:

"Is Director Xu being too exaggerated?"

"Aren't these just ordinary scenes?"

Zhang Yi looked at Li Li Yitong speechlessly.

He said meaningfully:

"Do you think you need big scenes and intense confrontations to see acting skills?"

"These kinds of things are the hardest to act!"

"How to make the audience not feel abrupt..."

"It requires studying the character you're embodying; it's clear Mr. Mu has studied the life of a fishmonger!"

"Don't you feel that what he just performed was exactly the daily life of a fishmonger?"

Originally, he thought Mu Chen was about the same age as Li Li Yitong, so their acting skills should be similar.

But now it seems the gap in acting between the two is a galaxy apart.

Li Li Yitong said embarrassedly:

"It is indeed very similar!"

She was too embarrassed to say anything else.

Zhang Yi heard the director calling him to film the next scene with Mu Chen.

He said to Li Li Yitong:

"Don't you want to see a scene that isn't so plain?"

"The next scene should have Mr. Mu's crying scene, you can watch that!"

"You should find this kind of scene very explosive!"

He could already foresee the shock Mu Chen would bring to people.

After all, for actors who aren't very good.

Things like crying scenes are what they can't do, and only then can they realize the gap.

And the kind of scene just now, it's not that they can't do it, but they don't think there's any difference between what they perform and what truly great actors perform.

Li Li Yitong was stunned in place.

The director praises, could it be the director is sucking up?

Zhang Yi praises, is Zhang Yi also sucking up?

She suddenly felt that it wasn't others sucking up, but that her acting really hadn't reached that level.

Even her eye for acting hadn't reached that level.

Until she finished watching the next scene!

That was the scene where Gao Gao Qiqiang was caught at the police station for fighting, and after eating the dumplings sent by his sister and brother, his emotions gradually brewed, and finally he shed tears.

After seeing the natural dialogue between Mu Chen and Zhang Yi.

In the end, Mu Chen was eating dumplings, his eyes gradually turned red, and a tear gradually fell on his face.

When it formed a highly impactful image with the dumplings he was swallowing.

Li Li Yitong was suddenly shocked.

So amazing!

However, the director and Zhang Yi and some veteran actors didn't seem to have the same reaction as just now.

But, isn't this kind of scene harder than the one just now?

It's one thing that my acting is so far behind them.

Could it be that my eye for acting is also that far behind???
