Chapter 733 - RW 1.28
"So, what do you want to do? If you want to kick this guy and use that piece of shit again, I will not hesitate to leave the set. Do you think paying that small amount of money as compensation will scare me?"
Han Ye's arrogance really started to hit the nerves of the crew. But they couldn't do anything against him and his massive amount of fans. And the compensation… Han Ye was too rich, rich enough to just pay the compensation, and walked out of the cast without many grievances. It would be them that got into a disadvantage.
Bi Hexian's eyes sparkled like a puppy in front of Han Ye. He whimpered, "Mr. Han Ye… I'm sorry for wasting your time. I'm just so ditzy, um… this is my first time. I'm such an idiot…."
"Hush, don't say that. You're not an idiot, just inexperienced," Han Ye said. "It's best for us to just keep trying and improving. Even if we have to do this over and over, then as long as you're serious, you will be able to get it right, okay?"
"Uwaaa, Mr. Han Ye is so kind! Were you always this kind to everyone?"
"Well, not everyone, just to select a few," Han Ye said, staring at Bi Hexian meaningfully.
Bi Hexian's cheeks reddened when he got stared at by the male god, "U—Um… Mr. Han Ye flatters me so much, I'm shy~."
[Ick, I want to puke.]
Yunyu only glared at them enviously, but he said nothing. At this time, he didn't even bother to face his expression. He was pissed off. Really pissed off.
Huang Jinren stood beside Bai Yunyu and saw Director Shen trying to hold his anger and return to his seat. He signaled everyone to return to their position and re-do the scene one more time.
This time, everything was better, and Bi Hexian suddenly could do the scene after encouragement from Han Ye.
Huang Jinren glanced at Bai Yunyu and sort of understood what Bi Hexian wanted to do here.
He wanted to show that encouragement from Han Ye would give him the strength to overcome his weakness. Although he could do it from the very beginning.
Director Shen didn't lose his frown the whole time. Even after Han Ye and Bi Hexian finished the scene, he rewatched it and just disliked it in general.
It looked so lifeless, without any trace of subtle chemistry between Han Ye and Bi Hexian. Director Shen was grieving that he had to replace such a perfect scene with Bai Yunyu with this superbly inferior scene with Bi Hexian.
That image of Bai Shijue was forever imprinted in Bai Yunyu. No doppelgänger would be able to replace him.
After that scene was done, Han Ye praised Bi Hexian, "You're doing great. See? I told you, with a bit of courage and work, you can do the scene really well."
"Mr. Han Ye complimented me too much. I'm just a new actor. I can complete this scene because you're continuously encouraging me!"
"Haha! Don't sell yourself short like that. You're doing great as a new actor!"
…
Everybody in the movie set could hear this, of course. This contrast of Han Ye when he treated Yunyu and Bi Hexian was so glaring, everybody couldn't help but pity Yunyu.
Some of them tried to steal a glance at Bai Yunyu, curious about his reaction.
But Huang Jinren stood in front of Bai Yunyu, shielding him from those judging or sympathetic gazes.
Director Shen wanted to retake this scene because it was so bad compared to what Yunyu did.
But he knew it'd be another hell for them. Since there was nothing he could do, he just accepted this take and moved on to another one.
This time, it was the scene between Huang Mu, the Frozen Flower Demonic Sect leader, and Bai Shijue.
In this scene, Huang Mu and Bai Shijue would strike a deal to trap Han Shun in exchange for Bai Shijue to attain great power. It was an act of betrayal.
"Well, guess it's my turn now," Huang Jinren said.
"Jinren-Ge," Yunyu grabbed Huang Jinren's wrist. Huang Jinren turned his head to Yunyu, waiting for him to speak. "Please don't mess this up. Remember, this is professional work. No matter how angry you're at them, you should be professional and do everything perfectly."
"… Sure, but after this, let's have lunch together, okay? I'll stuff you up, hehe," Huang Jinren snickered.
"I'm pretty hungry as well, I'll eat a lot, but you're the one treating me, Jinren-Ge."
Bai Yunyu and Huang Jinren giggled happily. Han Ye saw the intimacy between Huang Jinren and Bai Yunyu, and he only scoffed condescendingly.
Huang Jinren walked into his position on the set. He was already, but when he saw Bi Hexian suddenly approach him, he could only sneer in contempt.
"U—Umm… Mr. Huang Jinren, I know that we had a rough start today. But I'll be in your care for this session since I'm just a newbie."
"Oh? You want my care? You know that I don't give a crap about anyone who has no use, right? Be competent, or I will not be so kind," Huang Jinren said sternly.
Bi Hexian, who acted like a cute ditz the whole time, froze on the spot. His expression returned like a normal person, and he nodded. But when Han Ye saw this, he said to Huang Jinren, "You're going to bully this young man? Tch, Huang Jinren, as expected from you. You hang out with the wrong thing. That's why you got influenced."
"You're being such a hypocrite, Han Ye. I only told him to get his shit done, or else I wouldn't be kind. I'm not some abusive piece of shit who would beat a young actor for no reason even though he is doing very well.. And I'm also not the person who would tackle such a good kid from the cast just because I'm so immature and cruel."
