Even if she managed to make Youlan happy, Youlan would not give her any resources.
Other than in a TV series like “Path of Life,” Yuxi was also a proper female lead in normal TV series and would not accept female supporting roles.
Youlan came down to the mortal world to act in a TV series. Other than falling on her feet in this series, she relied on the title of “specially invited main lead” to save her prestige.
In other series, she had to be the female lead.
The two of them could be said to have a competitive relationship in terms of resources.
In the television circle, Youlan’s image type was not as unique as in the movie circle.
There were too many actors who clashed with Youlan.
It was difficult to enter the movie circle, and most of the actors were still rolling around in the television circle, waiting to get promoted.
There were all kinds of actors, and they were cheaper than Youlan.
Yuxi would definitely not agree to act as a supporting role for Youlan.
If she there was a role for main lead, Youlan would not introduce it to Yuxi even if she had the resources.
Therefore, Yuxi had no need to make Youlan happy. She smiled and said, “Jiang Xun is basically one-shot her scenes. Occasionally, there will be a few scenes where Director Guo and Jiang Xun’s understanding of the role is not quite the same. They will shoot a few more scenes and then make a choice. However, it is not because Jiang Xun’s acting is not good. Basically, any NGs were done by the other actors in the scene. Even when I acted with Jiang Xun, I also had quite a few NGs. On the other hand, Jiang Xun really didn’t do it once.”
“You don’t know. The entertainment for the crew is to place bets every day. Let’s see how many times Director Guo can praise Jiang Xun today.” Yuxi looked at Youlan’s smiling face, which was getting more and more unbearable, and laughed even more happily.
“Director Guo is such a strict person when it comes to actors. Every time Jiang Xun finishes acting, he has nothing to say and claps his hands.” Yuxi imitated Director Guo’s expression and movements, and she lowered her voice and hands. “Good, you acted really well. That’s why we have nothing to do every day. Let’s bet on how many times Director Guo praises Jiang Xun today. For the winner, let’s split the money and treat them to lunch the next day.”
Youlan was speechless.
Youlan didn’t hear anything bad about Jiang Xun from Yuxi, so she didn’t like sitting here anymore.
Just as she was about to find an excuse to leave, she saw a crew member running over.
“Teacher Su, Teacher Shao, I just saw the news. There’s a sandstorm moving this way,” the crew member said hurriedly. “We won’t be able to shoot today’s scene. We have to wait for the sandstorm to pass. Let’s hurry back to the hotel.”
Not far away, the staff members of the production team were also hurriedly packing up the equipment and moving them into the cars.
Some of the sets that could be protected had been protected, and they were also urgently reinforced.
The actors rushed back to the hotel first.
Jiang Xun also grabbed Xin’an’s hand and ran quickly.
Although the exact time that the sandstorm would arrive was unknown, one had to be mentally ill to be taking their time and not running.
However, after running a few steps, she saw Youlan being escorted by her assistant to look for a car.
Jiang Xun rolled her eyes.
The scene was not chaotic. The staff were still dividing the work in an orderly manner. The people carrying the equipment and the people protecting the set were also dividing the work.
The actors were evacuating in an orderly manner. The distance between them was very wide. No one could touch each other, much less push and step on each other.
So why was Xiaoxiao protecting Youlan?
“Jiang Xun!” Youlan stopped and called out when she saw Jiang Xun.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xun ignored her. She grabbed Xin’an and got into the car. As she sat down and fastened her seatbelt, she said to Boliang, “Brother Fei, let’s go.”
Boliang immediately drove away.
Youlan and Xiaoxiao watched helplessly as Jiang Xun ignored them and got into the car to run for heir lives.
Youlan: “…”
Xiaoxiao: “…”
“Sister Youlan, let’s not bother about her. Let’s go back to the hotel first,” Xiaoxiao hurriedly said. “We don’t know when the sandstorm will come. I heard that it’s especially serious this time.”
Youlan nodded with a livid face and got into the car.
Xin’an asked Jiang Xun, “Jiang Jiang, why did you ignore Su Youlan just now?”
Jiang Xun rolled her eyes. “Why would I listen to her scheming words? It’s so annoying. The sandstorm is coming soon. If we don’t hurry back to the hotel while the visibility is high, it’ll be dangerous if we delay until the sandstorm arrives. We won’t even be able to see the road ahead.”
The actors and the crew all returned to the hotel.
In the afternoon, the sandstorm rolled in.
Outside the window, the sky was filled with yellow sand. The wind whistled as it hit the windows.
Looking out of the window, it was all yellow. There was no visibility at all.
Originally, there was a row of houses across from the hotel. Although the houses were not high, they were lined up very closely.
There were all kinds of restaurants and small supermarkets.
However, at this moment, the outline of the houses on the opposite side could not be seen at all.
Furthermore, there were no signs of pedestrians on the street.
Everyone stayed indoors and did not come out.
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Jiang Xun went to open the door. Xin’an was standing outside the door.
“Jiang Jiang, are you afraid?” Xin’an asked when she entered.
“I’m not afraid. We’re very safe indoors.”
“But we can’t see anything outside. It’s full of strong winds and the sound of sand hitting the windows.” Xin’an trembled. “Can I stay here? I don’t want to go back to my room alone.”
“Okay, you can stay here. If you’re scared at night, you can sleep here,” Jiang Xun said with a smile.
“No, no, I’ll disturb you,” Xin’an quickly said. “I’ve never experienced such a big sandstorm. I remember that there was one in the capital more than ten years ago. However, when it reached the capital, the sandstorm had weakened a lot. I’ve never encountered such a serious sandstorm. Later on, through governance, the capital didn’t encounter such a sandstorm anymore.”
Jiang Xun nodded. She had never encountered such a sandstorm in the post-apocalyptic world.
During the post-apocalyptic era, humans hid underground.
There were zombies outside, so the living environment was very dangerous.
However, there were fewer disasters for humans on the ground. On the contrary, there was no smog or other environmental pollution.
The bad smell in the air was only because of the rotting zombies.
“I’ll get used to it today. It won’t be a problem at night,” Xin’an said.
She took out her phone to see if there was any new notification from the production team.
“Jiang Jiang, the production team has sent a notification,” Xin’an said. “They said that due to the sandstorm, traffic control and road closures, grain and food ingredients cannot be transported in. In order to ensure the supply of food, the hotel has suspended the ordering service and changed to a set meal system. There will be a fixed menu for each meal.”
“Okay.” Jiang Xunxian was bored. She also checked out what everyone was chatting about in the large and small groups of the film crew.
In the large group of the film crew, someone posted a chat history of the local residents in the county town.
It was said that the local supermarket had been emptied by the residents before the sandstorm arrived.
