Shen Jun smiled contentedly and obediently closed his eyes. Before fully drifting off to sleep, he managed to say, “The car is still waiting for me downstairs. The driver’s name is Shen Gang. Ask him to drive you around.”

Wen Nian replied, “Okay.”

Initially, Shen Jun didn’t feel particularly drowsy, but as he caught a whiff of Wen Nian’s alluring fragrance, a sense of tranquility washed over him. Gradually, sleepiness engulfed him, and before long, he succumbed to a deep slumber.

As she listened to the rhythmic sound of Shen Jun’s peaceful breathing, Wen Nian gradually relaxed. She discovered Shen Jun’s phone in his pocket and switched it to vibrate mode. Placing it gently on the bedside table, she ensured it would not disturb his sleep. Quietly, she proceeded to freshen up before quietly leaving the room.

As Wen Nian reached Shen Gang’s car downstairs, she introduced herself politely. “Hello, I’m Wen Nian. Shen Jun is feeling quite exhausted and is currently resting at the hotel. I would appreciate it if you could kindly drive me to the filming location.”

Despite not receiving any prior notice from Shen Jun, Shen Gang had already recognized the significance of Wen Nian in his master’s life over the past 24 hours. Acting swiftly, he stepped out of the car and courteously opened the door for her with a warm smile. “Miss Wen, there’s no need to be formal. It’s no trouble at all. Please, get into the car.”

Wen Nian was initially thinking that she would take a cab if Shen Gang doubted her. However, her surprise was evident when she noticed Shen Gang’s caring smile. Returning the gesture, she smiled back at him. In the midst of settling into the car, she accidentally stumbled upon her bag and phone.

Shen Gang saw Wen Nian’s expression in the rearview mirror. As he drove, he explained to Wen Nian, “Miss Wen, Zhang Lin sent your bag and phone over just now.”

Wen Nian nodded. This efficiency was really comparable to catching her.

As the final scenes were wrapped up within the allocated time, Xu Chang approached the cast and crew, holding a bouquet of vibrant summer sunflowers and wearing a bright smile on his face. “Congratulations! We have successfully completed the first round of filming. I sincerely hope that we will have the opportunity to collaborate again in the future.”

Observing Xu Chang’s persistent efforts, Wen Nian playfully teased, “Once you become a renowned director in the future, you won’t be interested in me anymore. There will be plenty of talented actors waiting for you to cast them.” Xu Chang’s face brightened with a joyful smile. “In that case, 1’11 cherish your blessings and strive to become a great director. However, regardless of my own success, 1 genuinely hope that you continue on this path. You might achieve even greater success than me.”

Xu Chang’s expectations for the movie’s box office success had been tempered by the realities of the industry. He had experienced his fair share of setbacks over the years. His aspirations had evolved from seeking instant fame to more practical goals. As long as the film could recover its costs and provide him with the necessary funds to continue making movies, he would be content. The desire for financial stability and the opportunity to pursue his passion remained his primary focus.

Wen Nian smiled and said nothing.

“Wen Nian, congratulations on successfully wrapping up the film. Director Xu was right in recognizing your talent. Even though 1 may not be a seasoned actor, I’ve been in this industry for over a decade, and I truly believe it would be a waste if you didn’t pursue this path”

“Indeed, you possess that special quality that is bestowed by destiny. When I act alongside you, I don’t perceive you as a newcomer at all. Your skills and presence on screen are remarkable.”

“Remember to keep in touch once you’re back! 1 enjoy conversing with well-behaved young ladies like you. It makes me feel youthful.”

Throughout the filming period, Wen Nian had developed a strong rapport with the majority of the production team, forging positive relationships with them. As the filming concluded, numerous team members came forward to congratulate and offer their well wishes to Wen Nian.

The scenes filmed on that day revolved around the interactions between the female lead, Wen Nian, and the five villains.

As the villains grew older in the storyline, actors in their thirties were cast for those roles. Due to Wen Nian’s sensible and polite nature, she would often approach them from a distance to greet them. Her diligent attitude allowed her to actively participate in scenes with them, occasionally improvising alongside them. She fearlessly embraced their occasional improvisations, creating an enjoyable atmosphere where fellow actors who shared a passion for acting could have fun together.

Wen Nian was not like those good looking A-list celebrities who primarily rely on their appearance. When acting with these celebrities, they couldn’t portray their roles exceptionally well. If they portrayed their roles exceptionally well, there might be criticism from fans suggesting a lack of unity and cooperation, accusing them of overshadowing their fellow actors with their exceptional acting prowess.

The actors found amusement in the irony of the situation. They recognized that those who criticized them were actually poor actors with an unjustifiably inflated sense of self-importance. Despite the good actors’ genuine efforts to propose alternative acting methods in order to enhance the overall performance, they were met with mockery and criticism. This infuriated them, prompting them to decide against engaging in such endeavors that only led to undesirable outcomes.

Because of this, when Wen Nian first started seeking guidance and asking questions, she encountered a lot of obstacles. However, she displayed humility and a willingness to serve tea, demonstrating her dedication to her craft. Over time, they realized her sincere desire to excel and started taking the initiative to teach her.

Although these actors may not be widely famous, they are highly acclaimed within the industry for their talent and skills. However, the current trend among directors is to cast good-looking celebrities with existing fan bases as the main leads in order to maximize commercial success. This preference for marketable stars sometimes overlooks the expertise and abilities of other accomplished actors.

So, in addition to being surprised by their recognition, Wen Nian was even more grateful for their enthusiastic responses when she asked questions..
