Chapter 1403: Shall we prepare to start?

Shi Hanchu was a little surprised. When he was eating with Tu Jie, he hadn’t heard him mention signing a new artist.

As if seeing through Shi Hanchu’s doubts, Little Song said, “Brother Jie said that he wouldn’t take in any more artists in the future. Perhaps it’s because of Su Manman’s outstanding talent!”

Little Song’s tone didn’t hide his fondness for Su Manman.

“Are you very familiar with that young lady?” Shi Hanchu turned his head and asked his assistant.

Only then did Little Song realize that he might have said something wrong. He smiled awkwardly and finally confessed to Shi Hanchu the origins of the drinks and snacks they had received over the past few days.

When Shi Hanchu heard this, his eyes narrowed as he looked in Su Manman’s direction.

The young lady was focusing on what the director was saying, nodding from time to time...

At this moment, Su Manman was a little nervous. She had gone through a lot of trouble to find Shi Hanchu’s manager, Tu Jie, to sign a contract with him. She thought about how she and Shi Hanchu would work together in the future, but she hadn’t expected for the collaboration to come so quickly!

The director of “Silent Disaster” actually contacted Tu Jie. He said that an actress in the production crew was suddenly hospitalized because she had finally gotten pregnant and was on the verge of a miscarriage. He had an unfilled role and wanted Su Manman to take it. There weren’t many scenes, but they were challenging. The director said that he had deliberately gone to watch Su Manman’s performance during the other production filming and was satisfied with what he had seen. Su Manman was not only pleasing to the eye, but her acting skills were also good, so he wanted Su Manman to give this role a try.

The way Tu Jie saw it, although Su Manman was an artist under him, her background was extraordinary. Therefore, he didn’t decide by himself and informed Su Manman about it first. Su Manman agreed without hesitation. Therefore, after the morning filming of “The Olden Days,” she had immediately gone to the set of “Silent Disaster.”

Su Manman had been noticing Shi Hanchu the moment he arrived at the filming set. She became even more nervous, unable to hear what the director was saying at all. Her eyes were on the script, but her thoughts were somewhere else. They had long drifted to Shi Hanchu.

When she saw Shi Hanchu looking in her direction from the corner of her eye, she immediately straightened her body, making herself look more slender and tall.

“Director, Actor Shi is here. Shall we prepare to start?” the assistant director asked.

The director looked up and smiled at Shi Hanchu. He then said to Su Manman, “We’re not filming the scenes for this role soon, so there’s no hurry. The later scenes will be filmed opposite Shi Hanchu. Think about it carefully... After you’re done with filming for ‘The Olden Days’ today, I’ll get the stylist to try out a few styling on you. Let’s decide on the styling first! Shi Hanchu will film these scenes with you in half a month!”

“Okay!” Su Manman answered simply.

The director had already gone to talk to Shi Hanchu and the other actors about today’s scene. Su Manman had yet to leave. She was still standing at the spot where she was earlier, looking at the tall Shi Hanchu.

News about Shi Hanchu had always been plenty on the internet...

It had been many years since she last saw Shi Hanchu, and Su Manman felt that Shi Hanchu had gotten even taller, and his gaze appeared even deeper.

“Manman, they’re about to film your scenes!” Su Manman’s assistant called out to Su Manman.

Su Manman looked at Shi Hanchu, who was preparing to get into his character, and nodded. Her gaze lingered on Shi Hanchu as she said, “Got it!”

The white figure disappeared from Shi Hanchu’s peripheral vision. He couldn’t help but turn around and look over.

After Su Manman was done filming today’s scenes for “The Olden Age,” she tried on a few styles for her role in “Silent Disaster.”

She didn’t expect Tu Jie would come to pick her up personally after the photoshoot was done. He was holding a bunch of variety show materials in his hands. It seemed like he was going to show them to Su Manman and let her pick them out.

“The Olden Days” was technically Su Manman’s first drama. It hadn’t even been released to the public, so she wasn’t well-known yet as an actress. But all the variety shows that Tu Jie brought for the newcomer, Su Manman, were all popular variety shows that not even popular celebrities could just appear on.

However, even though she was a newcomer, Su Manman’s position was different. She was a newcomer with capital and could invest in the production she picked. Such an artist would simply be treated as an empress dowager by all of the production crews. Of course, everyone wanted to have her on the show.

Inside her van.

Tu Jie placed all the documents in front of Su Manman. “Take a look at these, Manman. Choose... They’re all popular variety shows, and most of them are reality shows. How about this show... I’ll get the production crew to think of a way to arrange for you and God Shi to film together!”

Tu Jie pointed at the program description.

Su Manman, who had a neck mask on, removed her neck mask and picked up the production crew’s introduction to take a look...

Su Manman was speechless.

Horror variety shows had been very popular recently, causing celebrities who were invited to such a show be tormented all over the place. There was no aesthetic sense at all.

However, when she thought about what Tu Jie said, that she could be on the show with Shi Hanchu, Su Manman felt a little tempted.

When Tu Jie saw Su Manman’s conflicted expression, his lips slowly curled up...

Shi Hanchu’s assistant, Little Song, had told him that Su Manman would always bring drinks and snacks for Shi Hanchu whenever he was filming on set. From the looks of it... it seemed like Su Manman was pursuing Shi Hanchu.

Ever since Jiang Mingzhu passed away, Shi Hanchu had been increasingly withdrawing himself from the people around him. As his manager and as his friend, Tu Jie was truly worried.

Su Manman was pretty and she had given Tu Jie a good vibe...

More importantly, Su Manman was the one who had taken the initiative to ask Tu Jie to accept her as his artist. He guessed that it was part of her plan to pursue Shi Hanchu.

Back then, Tu Jie had only thought of Su Manman as just a pretty face and was prepared only to use her for her looks. Who would have thought that Su Manman would arrange for a role in “The Olden Age” herself? Without relying on him as her manager, she invested in the series production in exchange for a role. Then, unexpectedly, the director of “The Olden Age” called to praise him, saying that he had a good eye for picking talent. The director said that the newcomer, Su Manman, had a bright future because not only that she was pretty, but her acting skills were astonishing too.

Tu Jie felt that this outstanding and beautiful lady would be able to heal the wounds on Shi Hanchu’s heart. Therefore, he was willing to help Su Manman.

“This episode is going to be filmed at the Super Scary Labyrinth of Fear, the largest haunted house in the world. It’s in the Fuji-Q Highland theme park in Japan. I heard it’s super scary, just like its name, and it terrifies people to death. Plenty of brave men went in there only to come out crying. So, there’s currently only one female guest in this episode to this point. God Shi is also going to film this episode. If you want to do it, it’ll be easy to get you in the show!” Tu Jie said gently. “After all... having female guests on this episode will be the highlight. Nowadays, the audience likes to watch celebrities getting tortured by this kind of stuff.”

Su Manman’s brows furrowed slightly.

Although she wasn’t afraid of ghosts, ever since she was reborn, she had been very respectful towards ghosts and gods.

On the other hand, Shi Hanchu...

How should it be said? Shi Hanchu had a weakness. It wasn’t that he was afraid of ghosts, but the lighting that was created on purpose made Shi Hanchu especially uncomfortable. He felt so uncomfortable that he felt suffocated, unable to move an inch...
