Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Xu Xiyan could not help but also cast a curious look around. What was everyone so excited about?
But there was no need for her to crane her neck and look around for long. She knew who was coming upon overhearing the conversations of the women on the set.
“Elvis is here!”
“Oh my god, is it true? Isn’t Huo Yunshen the president of Yunhai Entertainment? Why is he here?”
“Don’t you know? This movie is a joint investment of Yunhai Entertainment and Juxing Entertainment. Besides, Julia is an actress under Yunhai Entertainment. Mr. Huo is both the investor and the boss so it’s normal for him to visit the set!”
“Is he here to visit Julia?”
“Do you still have to ask? Of course, he is!”
“But I heard that Huo Yunshen rarely shows himself in public. Why did he decide to come today?”
“Who knows! All I know is we’re really lucky to see prince charming in person!”
…
Everyone was super excited because it was really rare to see this mysterious big shot of the entertainment industry.
Because he was sitting in a wheelchair, Huo Yunshen appeared much shorter than the gathering people around him. Xu Xiyan was only able to see Huo Yunshen once the crowd parted to let him through.
He sat in his wheelchair with a laid-back posture. His magnificent face carried a hint of feminine beauty and at the same time maintained his air of domineering masculinity.
Huo Yunshen had a seductive and enchanting aura emanating straight from his very bones. He seemed to be glowing and could easily ensnare the hearts of young women who basked in his light.
“He’s so handsome! What a devil!”
“But it’s a pity that Elvis is in a wheelchair!”
“So what? Even though he’s in a wheelchair, he’s still tall and shining in my heart!”
…
Yes, Xu Xiyan felt the same way. Even though Huo Yunshen was sitting in a wheelchair, he still looked as magnificently handsome as before.
Some people are like shooting stars. Even if they fall into the dust, they still shine.
The director, Huang Guoqiang, was overjoyed at Huo Yunshen’s sudden visit.
“President Huo, why didn’t you inform us that you were coming?”
“I was passing by and thought I might as well come have a look. I hope I’m not interrupting the shoot.”
Huo Yunshen’s bright eyes swept over the set, stealing a glance or two at Xu Xiyan quickly enough to not make it seem as if he was looking directly at her.
The others thought that he’d come to oversee the actors who were signed under his company, and to check the progress of the film he’d invested in. No one knew that he was actually visiting Xu Xiyan.
Xu Xiyan stayed in the crowd and acted like a star-struck fan. She could not let anyone know that she knew Huo Yunshen.
“Oh, no, no, it’s a great honor to have you visit us. We really couldn’t ask for more.”
Huang Guoqiang invited Huo Yunshen to sit behind the camera crew.
Huo Yunshen looked around the set and asked, “What is the progress?”
Huang Guoqiang handed him a copy of the script.”We’re on the third scene.”
“Why did you stop there?”
…because you, a big boss, came and we had to stop everything to welcome you.
Huang Guoqiang only thought this, and didn’t dare to say it aloud. Instead he said, “We just had a third retake and were about to continue shooting again.”
Huo Yunshen put on the serious and intimidating look of a stern supervisor as he read the script.
“This is a simple scene. Why are there three retakes? Are the actors not professional enough?”
“Oh, no, no, Xu Xinrou is a very professional actress. It was the greenhorn actress playing the palace maiden, Yao Yue. They’re not used to working together yet.”
“Do another take,” Huo Yunshen demanded.
“…”
Is Huo Yunshen trying to get me into more trouble? Xu Xiyan thought.
Is he here to see me get beat up?
Because a great investor had come to visit the set, Huang Guoqiang was flattered but also felt immense pressure. He decided to be more proactive in front of Huo Yunshen in order to impress him. He immediately ordered all the actors and the crew back to their positions to restart the scene.
