After everyone's roles were determined, they were divided into four teams to start working on the scripts.

    Because the four they picked were all historic dramas, Xu Jia Shu needed to prepare the sets for shooting while Luan Qing Xiao stayed behind to instruct them.

    "There are only ten days for the four short films.

The most tired person isn’t you guys but Director Xu.

Director Xu is a director with creative ideas and may be different from all the directors you met before.

However, the things you learn here with Director Xu will also be different.

What Director Xu teaches you can accompany you throughout your entire life.

When shooting, everyone must work hard to cooperate with Director Xu."

    Luan Qing Xiao didn’t wish for the students' suspicion and distrust of Director Xu to cause problems during the shooting.

    "Teacher Luan, don't worry, we understand." Zhuo Zhuo was the first to speak.

The others soon followed to express their full cooperation.

    With cameras everywhere, aren't they just looking for scolding if they don't cooperate

    However if they all listen to the director and cooperate well and there are still problems with the film, it’ll be the director's fault.

Not only will they not be scolded, but they might also earn a wave of sympathy points when the time comes.

    Everyone here has their own schemes.

    Xu Jia Shu mentioned his requests to the program team and the program team arranged the props according to how he wanted them.

Although it seems a little different from the image in his mind, time was tight and there was no time to order them customized, he could only let it be.

    Two hours after Xu Jia Shu left, he hurried back to the preparation room.

    From the corridor, Xu Jia Shu could already hear the sound of students practicing their lines in the preparation room.

When he opened the door and the students inside saw him, their eyes lit up.

    "Director Xu is back."

    "Director Xu has worked hard."

    "Director Xu, we’ve already memorized all our lines."

    ...

    Enthusiastic and positive, he only left for two hours.

What exactly happened in these two hours

    Xu Jia Shu hadn't received such a warm and respectful look in the past eight years.

For a while, he felt a little uncomfortable, making him want to smile but couldn’t.

He nodded with a blank face and entered the preparation room.

    Luan Qing Xiao smiled and asked, "Director Xu, how is the staging going"

    Once Xu Jia Shu stopped looking at the students’ eyes, he finally heaved a sigh of relief, “It’s almost there.

We can head over to start filming in the afternoon after lunch.

The plan is to finish shooting tomorrow and complete editing in half a day.

Each ten-minute short film only has two and a half days of filming time.

I've never even rushed like this in the past eight years of filming horrible flicks.

    Director Xu peeked at the students.

Seeing that they weren’t looking at him, he finally heaved a sigh of relief, "Teacher Luan, I remember they weren’t like this when I left, why were they so enthusiastic now"

    Luan Qing Xiao took a sip of the tea, "Actors and directors have to trust each other to produce good quality works.

In order for the actors in our group not to be eliminated, of course I have to enlighten them."

    Xu Jia Shu couldn't help but smile, "Don’t add to their difficulties.

Making them act when it’s not their acting time.

Their acting was so good that I almost took them seriously."

    "If they have no motivation to be enthusiastic about you, no matter who they are, they’ll find it strange." Luan Qing Xiao placed down her teacup.

    Glancing at the time, Luan Qing Xiao stood up and clapped her hands to attract the students' attention, "Alright, it's currently half past twelve.

Let's take a two-hour noon break and start filming Script One later this afternoon."

    "Because time is running tight, actors in the first script, who haven’t finished memorizing their lines, should hurry up.

You guys should have lunch with the actors in the same group to increase your bonds with one another.

Filming with people you’re familiar with increases your chemistry."

    "Later this afternoon, the actors from the other three scripts stayed in the preparation room to continue practicing while Script One’s actors will directly gather at the set."

    "You are all dismissed for lunch."

    After Luan Qing Xiao finished speaking, the twenty people in the room all streamed out.

Suddenly, the preparation room appeared rather empty.

    In the end, only Luan Qing Xiao, Nie Zhen'er and Xu Jia Shu were left in the room.

    "Director Xu, shall we get a meal together" Luan Qing Xiao asked once she made sure that all the cameras in the room were turned off.

    Xu Jia Shu's eyes were exceedingly sharp.

Seeing Nie Zhen'er hadn't left, he felt it was odd at first before understanding.

    He smiled, "Just go with Zhen'er.

I’ll find a place to eat a few bites by myself."

    When Luan Qing Xiao saw Xu Jia Shu rejecting the offer after looking at Nie Zhen'er, she explained, "It's Zhen'er, she admires you very much.

She would be sad if you don't go and if she is sad, I won't be able to work hard.

Director Xu, let's go together."

    Xu Jia Shu shook his head, "I don't want to be the third wheel."

    Nie Zhen'er, who was standing next to Luan Qing Xiao, immediately piped up, "How could you be the light bulb Qing Xiao and I have plenty of time alone, but it’s a rare opportunity to have a meal with you."

    "Haha, it turns out Teacher Luan, you like pretty and sweet-talking girls."

    Nie Zhen'er grabbed Luan Qing Xiao's hand in embarrassment.

Luan Qing Xiao squeezed the palm of her hand, "Director Xu is really accurate in guiding people, but I only like Zhen'er's beauty and sweet mouth.

Even if other people have these two advantages, I won't like them."

    Xu Jia Shu: "...

…"

    In fact, I should probably refuse, this dog food is really too much .

    At this time, Xu Jia Shu didn't know this much dog food was only the tip of the iceberg.

During the meal, Luan Qing Xiao and Nie Zhen'er's inadvertent interaction almost made him, the single person, impulsively rush outside and confess to a random person.

    After their meal, the three of them returned to the preparation room.

However, they didn’t expect that someone would have already returned.

    "Teacher Luan, Director Xu."

    It was the five actors from Script One.

    "We want to seize the time to practice some more." The only actress in the script explained.

    Seeing Nie Zhen'er and Xu Jia Shu coming back together, she curiously asked, "Did Zhen'er, Director Xu and Teacher Luan have your lunch together"

    Luan Qing Xiao faintly replied, "Zhen'er and I just finished filming a TV series, we’re old acquaintance."

    "Wow, Zhen’er’s so amazing.

You actually acted with Teacher Luan, I really envy you." The actress exclaimed.

    It's just that the expression on her face is too exaggerated, even the envy seemed a bit false.

    Luan Qing Xiao didn't care whether she was sincere or not.

She turned to the five people, "Have you memorized all your lines Give us a run through, Director Xu and I will point out anything you need to fix."

    "Teacher Luan, we’ve all memorized the lines!" All the Script One’s actors nodded happily at once.

    The few people already discussed at the meal table.

They’re going to take advantage of when the cameras are turned off and return to the room to practice.

That way they can show it to Xu Jia Shu and Luan Qing Xiao when they return, so that when filming on the set, they’ll mess up less times, which will make their acting skills seem great.
