Chapter 467

~5 min read 905 words

But just then, the flash of cameras drew everyone's attention.

No flash photography was allowed on set, and no staff were permitted to capture or leak any footage.

The director's assistant immediately stepped forward.

He nervously scanned the surroundings.

The footage just shown was clearly taken on set.

This kind of covert shooting seriously violated on-site order—this behind-the-scenes person must be caught.

"Wasn't it already made clear that photography is forbidden on set? Nothing is to be leaked in advance. You've severely breached the director's rules. If you step forward now, you might still be given a chance to continue working on other sets. But if you wait too long, we'll make sure you can't work anywhere else!"

"Are you going to step forward or not? We have full surveillance. Once caught, you'll be blacklisted from this entire industry—think carefully!"

"I don't care who you used to work for—if we catch you, your supervisor will be demoted too. If you drag others down, think about whether anyone in this 14-circle industry will still want to be friends with you!"

After all that, no one stepped forward.

Xu Can realized this wasn't as simple as it seemed.

Since it wasn't anyone from the crew, that meant the enemy was hiding in the shadows, watching every move on set!

"Pause filming. Everyone return to your dressing rooms—don't let your makeup be exposed!"

"Only by luring out this behind-the-scenes mastermind can we film in peace. Otherwise, they'll ruin our shooting order. The entire set is a sealed environment, yet someone still managed to pull off this vile covert shooting—there must have been a detailed plan. Even if it wasn't a crew member who took the photos, there's definitely an inside accomplice!"

Xu Can turned and stared at other areas.

The more they hid, the more interesting Xu Can found it.

Christina rushed back to her dressing room and washed off her special effects makeup.

She couldn't cause Xu Can any trouble.

"How's it going outside?"

"The director's still searching for our inside mole—we don't know which link failed. We've been on guard against this kind of thing, yet someone still stabbed us in the back!"

Christina was also very tense.

If their filming footage leaked, all their hard work would be wasted.

The more secretive they were, the more anticipation it would build.

This was Xu Can's painstaking creation—no one was allowed to trample on it.

"I remember many vehicles were parked here—go pull the dashcam footage from all of them and see who looked suspicious!"

"The director already pulled all vehicle footage, but the workload is enormous. We don't even know what behavior to look for to identify suspects—we've filtered possible shooting angles, but it's still extremely difficult!"

Xu Can stared at the few screens in front of him.

Fortunately, they now had more surveillance and captured footage.

They must catch this behind-the-scenes person.

And they must do it before he sends these images outside.

"Cut the on-site signal immediately. Add signal jammers—don't let him easily transmit these images. If news breaks, our confidentiality will be openly challenged. These reporters are deliberately provoking our production team's authority!"

Xu Can's expression turned extremely dark.

The person hiding in the shadows trembled.

Most productions turn a blind eye—even if they publicly claim to enforce secrecy and ban covert shooting!

But when leaks actually happen, they pretend not to notice—as long as it helps promotion, anything goes.

But Xu Can was serious.

The moment the footage froze, Xu Can locked onto the person in the corner.

In just seconds, he took the shot and quickly hid inside a nearby box.

This person clearly had real skill.

"Bring him out!"

Hearing the commotion outside, the man knew he couldn't escape—he had to come out willingly.

In such a short time, how did they find him? Are their eyes really golden eyes?

But Xu Can's main goal was to find his inside accomplice—only then could he completely crush others' intentions.

"Tell me who your inside contact is in our crew—or I'll make sure you lose your job at your own company!"

"The one who tried to sneak away behind you…"

Everyone's gaze shifted instantly.

The man froze in place.

Especially since the studio door was locked—he had nowhere to run.

Xu Can couldn't imagine for the life of him which crew member this was.

"He's a temporary hire from today—he performed well on other sets, so we brought him on for a few days. Never expected he'd cause us such damage. I brought him in—I'll take full responsibility!"

The director's assistant recognized the man and felt deep regret.

If he'd been more careful, this serious incident wouldn't have happened.

"It's not your fault. Some people can disguise themselves so well. Report everything he did today to other production teams—see who'll dare hire him again!"

Without watching him beg for mercy, Xu Can walked away.

In the end, the man's reputation in the entire industry was ruined.

"I heard your crew had an inside-outside collusion—almost leaked your internal footage! If the signal hadn't been blocked in time, your filming clips would be all over the internet now—your confidentiality would've been completely destroyed!"

"Thankfully, it was a close call!"

Taylor and Xu Can sat side by side on the sofa in the villa.

"Today was indeed tense, but it reminded me to strengthen confidentiality—investigate every crew member to ensure none have ties to outsiders!"
