Chapter 321 A Coward Who Talks Nonsense
Huang Yu: "The male lead I mentioned, named Li Fan, got into a fight with another supporting character."
"A fight started?"
Fang Li asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Actually, Huang Yu didn't know either. She was standing a bit far away and only happened to see that the two seemed to be arguing. When she looked again, they had already started fighting.
"I overheard people around me talking about how Chengqian said Li Fan's acting was bad and that he liked to change the script. Li Fan got upset and threw a prop at Chengqian. Then, somehow, the two of them started fighting."
After Huang Yu finished speaking, he added, "President Xu, I feel it must be Li Fan's problem. You have no idea how annoying he is. He's self-righteous and arrogant. Nobody in the entire crew likes him!"
"I really don't know why Director Zhu doesn't replace him. Our script is original. If it's filmed well, Li Yun might become an overnight sensation. But as it is now, who knows what kind of mess it will turn out to be!"
Hearing Huang Yu's words, Fang Li became even more curious about Li Fan.
Generally speaking, newcomers to the industry, even if they have someone backing them up, won't be too arrogant.
There's never a shortage of people with capital in this industry. Being too flamboyant will inevitably lead to trouble sooner or later. Even if he doesn't understand it himself, the people behind him or his agent certainly do.
"It's alright, you stay here, I'll go check on things."
Fang Li and Yu Tian walked towards the crowd, and as soon as they got there, they heard the sound of arguing coming from the crowd.
"You think acting is child's play? You act like a pile of dog shit and still have the nerve to boss people around. Don't think you're the boss just because you brought your own funding to the production! Look at the whole crew, who even respects you!"
"Chengqian, say that again!"
"Let me tell you, the reason why people have become increasingly pessimistic about this industry over the years is because of people like you. One rotten apple spoils the whole barrel, ugh!"
"Fuck your mother, say it again! Who's the rat?!"
"You! You wicked devil!"
Fuck you! I'll kill you!
"If you're so capable, then come and try! You're a coward who has no acting skills but loves to spout nonsense!"
"..."
"Oh!"
"Clap!"
A prop bottle flew over the crowd and straight towards Fang Li.
Fortunately, Yu Tian reacted quickly and threw a punch, shattering the bottle in mid-air, with shards scattered all over the ground.
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Stop hitting them! You're hitting someone!"
Unfortunately, Li Fan and Cheng Qian had already gotten carried away with their fight, and neither of them would stop.
Director Zhu and his assistant director ended up getting bruised on their faces while trying to break up the fight.
Hearing the shouts and seeing that the two still wouldn't stop, Director Zhu finally lost his temper!
"Stop it all!"
With a shout, he almost cracked his voice.
Zhu Shun usually appears very gentle and rarely argues with actors or staff. He always speaks with a smile and a gentle tone.
His sudden outburst of anger startled everyone present.
Even Li Fan and Cheng Qian stopped.
Zhu Shun, panting and with a livid face, glared at the two men before turning to ask, "Who did you hit?"
No one spoke. Zhu Shun pushed his way through the crowd and went out, only to see Fang Li standing at the very back with a blank expression.
"President Xu?" Zhu Shun's expression changed slightly, his eyes filled with surprise.
Fang Li's lips curled slightly: "Director Zhu, are you filming a movie?"
Knowing full well the answer, Zhu Shun's face stiffened.
"I don't recall this scene being in the script, so was it added on the spot?"
Upon hearing this, not only Director Zhu, but everyone else's expressions became somewhat subtle, and their gazes inadvertently drifted towards the back of the crowd.
The crowd slowly dispersed, revealing Li Fan and Cheng Qian.
Zhu Shun paused for a moment before taking two steps toward Fang Li and smiling, "President Xu, what brings you here today?"
Fang Li glanced at the scratch near his eye and said with a slight movement of her red lips, "The rest of the plot has been mostly sorted out. The two screenwriters are writing the remaining scripts. I came here specifically to check on the filming progress."
Zhu Shun's smile faded slightly. "The first section is almost finished filming. Mr. Xu could have just asked over the phone. There's no need for you to make the trip in person."
“It’s alright, this is Li Yun’s first project, so I have to come and take a look.”
As Fang Li spoke, she looked behind her and said, "Which one is the male lead? Come to think of it, I haven't seen many of the main actors yet."
Everyone heard Zhu Shun call Fang Li "President Xu". Judging from the expression on Zhu Shun's face, although they couldn't guess Fang Li's identity, they could tell that she was no ordinary person.
Fang Li's temperament was particularly striking; she wore a black suit dress with a thin belt around her waist, which accentuated her already slender waistline, making it appear even more delicate.
She was tall and slender with a shapely figure, and her cool yet radiant face made her impossible not to take a second look.
Upon hearing Fang Li's question to the male lead, Cheng Qian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and coldly lowered his eyes.
Li Fan, who was next to him, did indeed smooth his hair and walked towards Fang Li.
"Hello, Mr. Xu, right? I am Li Fan, the lead actor in this drama."
Looking at the man's outstretched hand, Fang Li glanced down at it, then raised her gaze to his face.
Li Fan has a handsome face with single eyelids but long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and his lips turn up high when he smiles, making him look like a sunny boy.
Unfortunately, those eyes were a major drawback.
His eyes are light in color, and there is always a deep, meaningful look in them, giving people a sense of arrogance that comes from a deep mind but doesn't know how to hide it.
Fang Li didn't shake his hand, but simply smiled and said, "How come I remember that you weren't the one who was originally chosen?"
Li Fan's face stiffened slightly, and his expression immediately became somewhat awkward. He silently withdrew his hand and said with a slightly cold look in his eyes, "Was it me? The previous one wasn't suitable. Director Zhu has a discerning eye and has chosen me again."
"Oh, really? I heard you're a student in the Performing Arts Department at Peking University?"
Li Fan: "Yes, second year, not graduated yet."
"To have such a great opportunity before even graduating, it seems you've been performing very well, which is why you were spotted by a talent scout and signed with a company so early."
"Thanks for the compliment."
"You're welcome. I'm just telling the truth. By the way, you may not know me yet. I'm the founder of Liyun, my surname is Xu, and I used to be an artist under Yaoxing."
Li Fan was surprised that Fang Li would introduce herself so directly.
But in that instant, Fang Li caught him.
She instantly made up her mind, and a slight smile appeared on her lips: "Alright, I just came to see everyone today. I've ordered afternoon tea for you all, and it will be delivered shortly. I hope you all enjoy it."
After saying that, she completely ignored Li Fan and looked at Director Zhu: "Director Zhu, I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Shall we go somewhere else?"
This was the first time Li Fan had been ignored like this.
His face immediately turned somewhat gloomy. As he watched Fang Li and Zhu Shun walk towards the RV in the distance, his eyes were fixed on Fang Li's back, a sinister smile churning within them.
