The company had accepted two new dramas for Daiyu,

A movie and a TV series,

This should be her overall plan for this year,

Endorsements did not count.

The movie was a more obscure one,

It had a poetic name called "The Distance". It vaguely talked about a pair of lesbians,

Under various choices, headed towards a tragic outcome.

It was an art film.

The company did not want to accept it at first. After all, although this movie was produced by a famous director, the production team was also a famous team in the industry,

But after all, she was talking about lesbians!

This was a restricted film,

It would be difficult for it to be released.

Moreover, it would affect Daiyu's pure image.

However, the director and screenwriter could be said to have used all their strength. It was not a problem for them to pester her,

Because according to the screenwriter, one of the main characters in the movie was tailor-made for Sister Lin.

Daiyu: "…" Lil 'Sis Lin didn't know, alright?!

Moreover,

This movie was still an award winning movie.

After thinking about it, the company still accepted it. After all, Daiyu's position had been an actress from the beginning,

The kind that would become an artist in the future,

She was not an idol star who purely relied on packaging and persona,

Even though she was indeed a celebrity now.

Daiyu received the script and read it carefully,

She also agreed.

Although the movie was in the name of lesbians, in fact, the most intimate scene in the entire movie was the scene of the two main characters gazing at each other affectionately under the setting sun and holding hands. More of it was a discussion of human nature. The emotional scene was only a little bit.

Moreover, the other female lead was the cold and arrogant big star Duanmu Xin. She was the goddess who had competed with Daiyu for the T family's endorsement.

Duanmu Xin's acting skills were rumored to be godly. Daiyu was also eager to give it a try. She wanted to see who the legendary woman who had won the Grand Slam of Best Actress awards was.

The other TV series was a coming-of-age drama called "20". It used two generations as an opportunity to tell the story of the joys and sorrows of the urban and rural families after the reform and opening up.

Daiyu played two roles this time. Zhang Jianguo, the son of the Zhang family in the city, married a village girl, Li Guihong, and gave birth to a son and a daughter.

When Li Guihong first appeared, she was twenty years old. At the end of the story, her daughter was exactly twenty years old.

Therefore, the TV series was called 20.

Daiyu played two roles: Li Guihong, who had a gentle and tough personality, and her daughter, Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was optimistic, active, and a little naive.

Daiyu felt that it was quite challenging, and the story was very heartwarming. It was a story about the joys and sorrows of a small character growing up, and it ended with laughter.

The movie was signed for five months, and so was the TV series. The contract had been signed, and the movie was going to start shooting next month. Daiyu had been crazily making up lessons recently. She wanted to finish this semester's courses in advance. Otherwise, she would feel guilty if there was a lot of homework left.

To be honest, the courses at Qing University were not easy. Fortunately, Daiyu had always been a top student. She hurried and finally finished this semester's studies before the movie started shooting. Under the supervision of various teachers, she took an exam and then entered the crew with the next semester's books.

The story of "The Distance" was set abroad, and the crew rented a guesthouse. After all, it was very expensive to stay in a hotel!

Speaking of which, it was quite awkward to meet Duanmu Xin again. Perhaps it was because of the previous competition that left a deep impression on each other. Therefore, when they met this time, Daiyu was a junior, so naturally, she did not put on any airs.

However, Duanmu Xin was very arrogant. She glanced at Daiyu, frowned, and said directly to the director, "If your sincerity is this little girl, I will be very skeptical about whether it is right for me to take on this show."

The director was speechless. Although Daiyu was popular, her acting skills were very clever. There was no doubt about this!

However, Duanmu Xin was one of the top artists in the country. She was very popular in the country, and her acting skills were very good. She could guide newcomers, so generally, people would not easily offend her. The director had to quickly appease her and persuade her, hoping that she would act well.

However, perhaps because Duanmu Xin felt too good about herself, or perhaps because she felt that it was inconceivable that she lost to Daiyu last time, she was very unhappy. Although she didn't say anything in the end, she still treated Daiyu with disdain.

Daiyu was speechless. She felt so wronged!

Really!

Forget it. There was nothing to say to those people who thought that the heavens were the most important. Since they looked down on her, she would use practical actions to slap her in the face!

There was nothing more painful than being slapped in the face in your professional field.

Therefore, there was such a scene. In the movie, the two beauties appreciated each other, and their eyes looked ambiguous and affectionate. Outside the movie, the two people ignored each other and focused on reading the script.

The director was … very happy about this. Didn't they see that under the leadership of the two protagonists, the whole crew was very self-disciplined and diligent?

The movie that was expected to take five months could be finished in four months. They could save some money and use it for post-production publicity.

Sure enough, a good actor could save a movie, let alone two.

The current situation between Daiyu and Duanmu Xin could be described as a love-hate relationship. In any case, it was quite something. However, it had to be said that Duanmu Xin did have the right to be arrogant. Even Daiyu would sometimes be accidentally suppressed by Duanmu Xin. Ordinary people would not be able to withstand the full force of her acting skills.

Fortunately, Daiyu was never an ordinary person.

Sure enough, the company got a share of the pie from the previous movie, "The Legend of Jiang Lan". The female lead was Cong Lan, who specialized in TV dramas, and the company got three supporting roles, two women and one man.

Chen Yijia and a senior from the same company were arranged to play the female lead. Now, in addition to Daiyu, Chen Yijia was also the target of the company's efforts to promote. After all, she was good-looking and had a good character. Who else should they promote if not her?

They couldn't promote those ingrates who immediately kicked out of the company when they became popular, such as Shen Zhixing — although she was not popular.

But they had seen many ingrates, and everyone knew in their hearts.

This movie finished shooting in mid-June. As the director expected, it was more than half a month early. Otherwise, it would have ended in July.

During the wrap party, Duanmu Xin actually said a few words to Daiyu, which was rare, "I misjudged you in the past." In the end, she said this.

Daiyu's jaw dropped. Was this considered a tactful apology?

In fact, it was not Duanmu Xin's fault. After all, it was an era where popularity was king, and it was too difficult for good actors to make a name for themselves. With Duanmu Xin's status and qualifications, she was indeed not used to this kind of phenomenon. It seemed that as long as one had popularity and fans, one could easily win awards. It was quite embarrassing.

However, Daiyu used her own practical actions to break her idea — there were also people who were serious about acting.

She also added Daiyu on WeChat and Weibo. Daiyu was also very confused, but Duanmu Xin's business skills were really good, and she was very impressed.

After this movie finished shooting, Daiyu immediately participated in the next movie. Because this movie had a sense of history, it was shot in the film and television city.

Daiyu was busy in full swing, and Xiao Zexi was also busy. This time, it was not his problem, but his mother's problem.

Mother Xiao was an impatient person. She had always wanted her silly son to kidnap Sister Lin to be his wife. Then, their family would never be separated again.

However, it had been more than a year, and Xiao Zexi, that silly hat, was still in the same place!

— — No, they had already had intimate contact. At least, they had kissed, hugged, and held high … Although it was not that dirty, they had kissed.

However, Xiao Zexi would never tell his mother such a private thing no matter how silly he was!

Therefore, what Mother Xiao saw was Xiao Zexi standing in front of the screen like a fool, constantly watching Sister Lin's every move.

She asked, but there was no progress!

Mother Xiao was so angry that she wanted to stuff him into her belly and give birth to him again.

"Why did I forget to give birth to a brain when I gave birth to you?"

Xiao Zexi was speechless.

Before he could say anything, Mother Xiao waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. If I rely on you, I might not be able to see that day. I'll do it myself!"

Xiao Zexi was frightened. "Mom, my biological mother!

I can do it myself. Don't get involved, okay? "If Sister Lin found out that he had asked for help, he would die a horrible death!

Moreover, love matters should be done by oneself. That would be the best memory!

Just think about it, when the two of them had white hair and a house full of children and grandchildren, holding hands and taking a stroll under the setting sun, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, the joys and sorrows of love, how wonderful it would be!

He did not want anyone else to replace him!

However, Mother Xiao did not care about his protests. The first thing she did was to bring gifts to his house.

Granny Lin was dumbfounded.

At that time, she was sitting on the sofa with Sister-In-Law Xu and watching TV. They were watching Daiyu's "The Legend of Chang 'an". The male lead was Xiao Zexi.

Granny Lin said to Sister-In-Law Xu, "This young man is so handsome!"

Sister-In-Law Xu replied with a smile, "Yes, he and Sister Lin look so good together!"

"Yes, yes. I heard that he is pursuing Yu Er. Do you think Yu Er will accept him?"

Granny Lin was also very worried. Although Daiyu was only 18 years old, she was a parent. There were only a few things that she was worried about.

"Well …" Sister-In-Law Xu was also hesitant. "If it was someone else, they would have accepted such a handsome and rich suitor. However, Sister Lin is not short of money. She is also very good-looking. It's hard to say!

However, based on the way the two of them are in love with each other in this TV series, it should be possible! "Sister-In-Law Xu was obviously too immersed in the drama. He had turned from a fan of the drama to a fan of the real-life couple.

Granny Lin's eyes lit up. "Really?"

To be honest, Granny Lin was also obsessed with looks. Even if she wasn't obsessed with looks, after more than 10 years, she had become obsessed with Daiyu's beautiful face.

It was like a person who ate delicacies every day. If you suddenly asked her to eat chaff, she wouldn't be able to eat it!

Even if she forced herself to eat it, her delicate stomach wouldn't be able to take it.

"It's true!"

Sister-In-Law Xu nodded. It had to be true. Looking at the people who had interacted with Daiyu, it seemed that except for Xiao Zexi, no one was as good-looking as Daiyu.

Sister-In-Law Xu even secretly thought that if the two of them got married and had a baby in the future, how beautiful would that baby be?

As the two of them were discussing, the doorbell rang.

Sister-In-Law Xu opened the door and saw a graceful and beautiful woman standing at the door. He was stunned. "Madam, did you come to the wrong house?"

The beautiful woman, Mrs. Xiao, smiled elegantly. "I'm here to see Sister Lin, Lin Daiyu. Is this her house?"
