Huayu: It's normal for me, as a director, to mentor young actresses, right?

Chapter 69 Core Satisfaction

Since filming began for "My Love from the Star", Lin Yu has been staying in Hengdian, while Gulnazar is preparing for her final exams at the Beijing Film Academy.

As the saying goes, "A day apart feels like three autumns," let alone a couple deeply in love like this.

According to this calculation, the two have not seen each other for a full two Kun years.

They were all young people in their prime, and when they met, it was like dry wood meeting a raging fire, ready to ignite at any moment.

"Don't rush, I need to take a shower first!"

"It's okay, I just like the original flavor."

"Hey, damn it, don't bite me! Be gentle!"

"It hurts, slower...faster!"

After three meals a day, Nazha was overjoyed and completely satisfied, and Lin Yu's accumulated stress was also released.

I don't know why the two of them have to make such a fuss over a meal, taking a shower one minute and talking about the original scent the next.

Naza patted Lin Yu beside her, "Go take a shower, you stink!"

"Wow, you were just calling me your little lover, and now you're going to throw me away after you're done with me, huh?" Lin Yu has improved a lot; at least he's not like last time, when he was too exhausted to move afterward.

It was worth it for him to pester his grandfather's health care team for the secret formula; the effect was top-notch, and he felt great now.

"Oh dear, go take a shower!" Naza didn't even have the strength to sit up, she just raised her hand and pushed Lin Yu.

Lin Yu smiled without saying a word, stood up and casually hoisted Nazha onto his back, causing Nazha to gasp in surprise.

"Put me down!" Naza squirmed on Lin Yu's shoulder.

Both of them were slippery, and Lin Yu was a little unsteady on his feet for a moment. He slapped Nazha's bottom twice to calm her down.

Lin Yu walked to the edge of the bathtub and casually tossed Nazha into the water. He then stepped into the bathtub himself, letting the warm water soak his tired muscles.

Naza floated on the surface of the water like a dead fish, motionless, and looked really exhausted.

"How was your trip to Nanjing these past few days?" Lin Yu asked casually after soaking in the water for a while.

Naza rolled over and lay on her back by the bathtub. "I had so much fun. These past few days, my senior sister took me all over Nanjing."

Although they would have to wait until the scenes in Hengdian were finished before they could join the crew in Jinling, Wang Jinghua didn't arrange any work for them during this time. As soon as Nazha finished her final exams, she took Liu Shishi on a trip to Jinling.

When it comes to having fun, Nazha's whole demeanor brightens up, her eyes sparkling. In her early twenties, she's at the perfect age to love having fun.

Lin Yu looked at Nazha, who was excitedly sharing her experiences of the past few days with him, and his hand involuntarily reached out again.

"Oh dear, I haven't finished yet. I was telling you I was at the Master's... um." Naza was silenced by Lin Yu before she could finish speaking.

They clearly lack experience. Who goes to Confucius Temple as their first stop when visiting Nanjing?

Naza tilted her head back and stared intently at Lin Yu, her eyes filled with anger. How could this bastard have improved so much!

-----------------

"Your eyes! How many times have I told you? You're just angry and embarrassed now, where's the anger in your eyes?!"

Filming for "My Love from the Star" is in full swing on the Nanjing University campus in Jinling.

The scene being filmed is where the female lead, Xia Xingran, has her homework discovered by the male lead, Shen Xinghe, to be plagiarized. The female lead is furious and confronts the male lead about it.

As for the original classroom paper being changed into homework by Lin Yu, the words "plagiarism" are still very sensitive in China, but copying homework has no impact. Who hasn't copied homework from childhood to adulthood?

This scene has been filmed seven or eight times, but Lin Yu is still not satisfied. The reason is simple: Liu Shishi's eyes are empty and you can't see any change in her emotions.

Although acting skills aren't that important in idol dramas, they can't be completely absent either. She really made Hu Ge look like a movie star, even though Hu Ge was only half-hearted in his performance.

"What's going on with you?" Lin Yu stood behind the head eunuch, staring at Liu Shishi standing on the podium. "How do you manage to have the same look in every single performance?"

We've really been fooled by the Japanese. Who was it that said she was a great actress when she was young?

"Could you change your expression a little?" Lin Yu patted the script in his hand. "The requirements are already very low. Just a slight change will do."

At this moment, Liu Shishi's eyes finally showed a look of embarrassment and anger, and she could be said to have experienced the method of performance with Lin Yu.

"Okay, that's the look." Although it wasn't quite what Lin Yu had envisioned, it was already pretty good. "All departments, take your positions, one more take!"

Liu Shishi swallowed the words she wanted to say and silently walked back to the starting point.

"My Love from the Star, Scene 3, Shot 5, Take 9, Begin!"

After finishing his work, Wang Yanyang quickly moved to the side; he was becoming more and more skilled at this task.

Lin Yu stood behind the chief eunuch, watching Liu Shishi's performance on the camera. Finally, it was starting to look somewhat professional.

"Cut!" After a scene was finished, Lin Yu called for a stop. "That was good, keep it up. Now, let's do one more take."

Before Liu Shishi could even feel happy, she heard the devastating news of Bao Yitiao's death. Anger resurfaced in her eyes, and she gritted her teeth as she walked back to the starting point.

The crew members didn't complain at all and immediately began restoring the set. These people were basically from the "Twelve Citizens" crew. Lin Yu signed anyone he found useful to his studio. Their salaries were considered generous in the industry, not to mention the daily transportation allowance, meal allowance, and high-temperature allowance.

The take went very smoothly. Lin Yu even noticed the change in Liu Shishi's expression. As for whether she was truly angry, Lin Yu didn't care.

"Alright, that's a pass." Lin Yu clapped his hands in satisfaction. "Next round."

Lin Yu turned around and sat back in the director's chair. Continuous shooting is also a test for a director.

He fondly remembers the days when he filmed "12 Citizens," when he didn't have to worry about the actors' acting skills at all; if there was even the slightest problem, the teachers from various schools would be more anxious than he was.

"Brother Yu, have some water." Lin Gengxin handed him a can of cola. "Brother, let's talk. Could you please be a little gentler with the yelling during filming later?"

"Is this considered swearing?" Lin Yu took the cola, not even giving him a proper look. "You can't accept it because I didn't even use a swear word?"

Lin Yu turned to look at the actors' rest area. "What, did she ask you to plead for her?"

"No, it's not that. It's just that I have a scene in the next one." Lin Gengxin said with a bitter face, "Brother Yu, you know I'm a person who cares about my image."

Lin Yu didn't want to talk to him. He was the only one who cared about his pride. Later, when Wang Sicong was cursing him so badly during a game, he didn't say a word back.

"Lin Gou," Lin Yu said in a more earnest tone, "I've always considered you a friend."

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then said, "So we need to be honest with each other. If I hold anything back, wouldn't I be betraying our relationship?"

Lin Gengxin's face fell completely.

"Alright, get ready to go on stage." Lin Yu stood up, patted Lin Gengxin on the shoulder, and said, "I have faith in you."
