Chapter 237
Thursday.
While other masked singers were meticulously preparing, in Hengdian, the *Chinese Paladin 3* crew officially wrapped up filming.
At this very moment.
The remaining actors and staff of the crew were eating at the wrap-up banquet in a restaurant.
Having a big meal after the crew finished work was a convention, whether in the past life or in the Huaxia nation.
In the cups of wine swallowed into their bellies, there was the relief of finally completing a task, and the anticipation for the broadcast of the finished product.
Of course, there was more of the ways of the world.
As the protagonist and the "sucker" who paid for the banquet, the girl was naturally unavoidable when it came to being toasted.
The veteran actor Xing Xing Yusheng, who played the Evil Sword Immortal, walked over with a wine glass.
"Director Xu, I toast you both," Xing Xing Yusheng said with a flushed face. "To be honest, I've been acting for so many years, I've been to many big crews, and I know many directors, but I truly admire you! Thank you for giving me this opportunity."
Xing Xing Yusheng felt a thousand emotions in his heart.
He had originally auditioned for this drama because of You Mingyue's script, thinking the title "Tyrant You Mingyue" was just an exaggeration in the industry.
But once he actually joined the crew, he realized his eyes had truly been opened.
These twins were truly invincible.
He admired them sincerely.
What made him even more grateful was that he hadn't expected to get such a heavy role in this drama.
By playing the Evil Sword Immortal, he might usher in a second spring for his career.
Therefore, he came to toast.
One reason was admiration, the other was gratitude.
Beside them, many staff members and minor actors looked at Xing Xing Yusheng with envy and jealousy; among those present, not everyone had the qualifications to toast You Mingyue.
The film and television industry was a place where seniority was taken very seriously.
Although You Mingyue were young, the achievements they had made today already made countless people in the industry look up to them.
Youyue and Mingyue picked up their wine glasses.
Naturally, there was no wine in their glasses; singers had to protect their throats, so they rarely drank, only having a little red wine or similar drinks with minimal irritation to the throat during holidays, and usually, they had embarked on the same path of no return as Jay Chou—they loved bubble tea.
Fortunately, they practiced martial arts diligently every day, which rounded up to exercising.
Plus, they worked hard on their careers every day, so their figures hadn't gone out of shape; they still had hot, devilish bodies.
In their glasses right now was actually plain water.
Of course, everyone present knew this.
But whether man or woman, no one would pick a bone with them over this.
Getting two nineteen-year-old girls drunk was something only a beast would do.
And they were the directors; who would dare to force them to drink?
They were begging for their favor, if anything.
There were plenty who wanted to climb the social ladder, grovel, and curry favor with them.
This was actually a reflection of status in the industry; without status, one was bullied. With status, one was surrounded by stars.
Youyue smiled and said, "Teacher Xing, you flatter us."
Mingyue raised an eyebrow: "Next time there's a chance to cooperate, Teacher Xing must come."
The girl with one soul and two bodies was becoming increasingly skilled at playing mixed doubles.
Xing Xing Yusheng nodded quickly: "I'll definitely come! Even if it's a mountain of blades or a sea of fire, I'll come, hahahaha!"
Only a fool would refuse a drama by You Mingyue.
After saying this, Xing Xing Yusheng tilted his head and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
The girls looked at each other and took a small sip of plain water.
It wasn't that they looked down on anyone.
It was foreseeable that there would be many people toasting tonight.
Drinking too much plain water made one need to pee often.
They didn't want to go to the bathroom frequently; that was a sign of kidney deficiency.
In fact.
Just as they guessed, once Xing Xing Yusheng started, everyone with any status or weight in the backstage crew came over to toast.
Naturally, this included Yang Mi, Dai Si, and Zhu Zhu Xudan.
Even Hu Tao rushed over with a wine glass, even wanting to drink a cross-cupped wine with Mingyue.
In public, the girl wouldn't play along with this crazy girl, so she deftly refused.
After these days of getting along, she had figured it out: this girl probably had ulterior motives toward her, suspected of "rushing the boss."
Not a small ambition!
The prey turned out to be myself?
The girl was wary of her.
But it wasn't enough to fire her.
Who was the prey, it was still too early to say.
This was a hunting game, and the girl had always been very patient.
A wrap-up banquet, guests enjoyed themselves to the fullest.
When the party broke up, the sky was already dark, and everyone parted reluctantly.
This also meant the *Chinese Paladin 3* filming crew was disbanded.
Next, the *Chinese Paladin 3* TV series would enter the post-production stage.
"This is the cleanest crew I've ever been in," a B-list actress said faintly, watching You Mingyue, Zhu Zhu Xudan, Dai Si, and their assistants drive away at the restaurant entrance.
The "clean" she spoke of didn't refer to hygiene, but that in this crew, she saw something very rare in the industry: there were no unspoken rules here.
One had to know, unspoken rules in the industry were no longer a secret.
Many actresses had only one path to fame: climbing into bed.
Accompanying directors, producers, supervisors, assistant directors, investors... after a string of accompaniments, they might finally get a third-female role.
And that was considered a good ending; most actresses would encounter situations where the men would pull up their pants and refuse to acknowledge them.
Of course, good-looking or handsome male actors could also encounter these things.
However, with You Mingyue, these industry unspoken rules were completely absent.
Everyone was truly and seriously filming, without those dirty things.
This surprised the actress, but she also enjoyed this atmosphere; this was the entertainment industry she had dreamed of.
Beside her, a male actor nodded: "You came late, so you might not know, this is actually because Director Moon manages strictly. Earlier, some people had crooked thoughts, and they were directly kicked out by Director Moon."
"Their crew is a breath of fresh air in the industry."
The actress's eyes flashed with intrigue: "They are truly magical, I hope there's a chance to join their crew again next time."
The male actor shook his head noncommittally.
Getting into You Mingyue's crew again was easier said than done!
For their crews, whether movies or TV series, countless people fought tooth and nail, scrambling to get in.
The night gradually deepened.
In the car taking the girls back to the hotel, a very sultry scene was unfolding.
