Xia Siyu’s ego flared up again: "I’m a legend now. Look at the young girls below, which one of them isn’t respectful to ? Even the show crew doesn’t dare to ss with ."
She knew she had been temperantal and capricious today, but she didn’t care. Even if the program crew edited it all into the final cut and she got slamd by a crowd of viewers, it didn’t matter.
After all, her personality is no secret to the audience. Criticize if they want; as long as her movie performances are good, she’ll never be short of roles. At her level, if she chooses to show so friendliness, that’s her generosity. If she doesn’t want to, it’s no big deal. She’s long past the point where she needs to tread carefully to survive in the entertainnt industry.
"Yes, you’re amazing, but life is life, and work is work. Don’t bring personal feelings into work." Fortunately, he had co in ti today, had Song Fengzhi smooth things out with the crew, and edited out her reckless remarks. Otherwise, if it aired, it could have led to another round of outrage.
Xia Siyu huffed again, her face showing defiance, but her expression wasn’t exactly rebellious. Clearly, she had taken so of it to heart. Although she lived as she liked, she was generally kind to others. She knew she hadn’t behaved well today, and she would change in the future.
She paused for a mont and then asked, "For my audition, I should have passed. Once this variety show is halfway done, I’ll go back to discuss the details with them. If the pay and script are agreed on, I should be going abroad."
"Alright." Bo Yan nodded. Although he, like Xia Siyu, wasn’t exactly indifferent to Hollywood, he wasn’t desperate to go there either. In their eyes, the script and character setup are paramount.
However, having the opportunity to venture outside is also good. She’s still young, and the world is so big; she should experience more.
"I’ll be working with John Scott. He’ll play my boyfriend in the drama."
This ti, unlike when she was bragging in front of Xia Sicai, Xia Siyu spoke quite calmly. John Scott is Hollywood’s, or even the world’s, hottest male star right now. To have a role opposite him, as long as the script isn’t terrible and the acting is decent, ans skyrocketing to fa.
He’s different from Bo Yan, who represents the Eastern aesthetic and is the cold, aloof type. John Scott is the typical Western heartthrob, a walking embodint of hormones, oozing masculinity.
Moreover, in the storyline, it’s Xia Siyu who does the seducing. Her hyperactive, attention-seeking personality in real life perfectly mirrors her character in the drama. It’s just a sha that the male lead role isn’t Bo Yan anymore.
Bo Yan said, "Perform well and you’ll surely shine. Even if the script or character setup is slightly lacking, I believe with your acting skills and dexterous moves, you can make the story captivating."
In Hollywood, Asian representation is generally quite low. Won might have a slightly better chance of erging, but for Asian n to succeed in Western films is almost an impossible dream. Even if Bo Yan wanted to act there, he wouldn’t have the opportunity.
Xia Siyu repeated, "I’ll be working with John Scott."
Bo Yan nodded, "I know."
Xia Siyu emphasized, "And in it, I’m playing a sexy female spy. I’ll have many romantic scenes with him."
This ti Bo Yan seed to finally catch the hint of sothing different. He vaguely sensed Xia Siyu’s point, but he still suppressed his emotions and rationally analyzed: "From an actor’s perspective, this is a good thing. Firstly, you’ve rarely taken on such roles in the past. To portray the coexistence of aloofness and sensuality is a real test of your acting abilities. Moreover, an actor fears being typecast the most; I’ve collaborated with you on too many films, which isn’t very beneficial for your growth. It easily creates a fixed impression. Actors should step out of their comfort zones and explore more."
Xia Siyu asked, "Then what about from a man’s perspective?"
Bo Yan chuckled slightly, "It’s impossible not to mind when your wife is acting in intimate scenes with other n. But we’re all actors, and as long as it’s just part of the work, it’s understandable. However, while you’re abroad, you must protect yourself. I’ve heard that John Scott changes girlfriends like changing clothes. Although there’s no news of him being with an Asian girl yet, who knows?"
Hearing this, Xia Siyu felt sowhat comforted. Bo Yan then asked, "And you? Do you feel uncomfortable watching act with other female artists?"
Xia Siyu thought seriously, "As long as you don’t do anything like those adult films, it’s not unacceptable. But it only applies to acting. If you dare to take it off-screen, try it, and you’ll be out."
They had no choice; their profession was different from others. And during filming, to create the semblance of true love, they had to imrse themselves deeply. Fortunately, Bo Yan belonged to the thod School, with a cold temperant, treating acting like research without getting too emotionally involved. Xia Siyu, though a hundred percent experiential actor, was lively and could quickly get into and out of character, never confusing work with personal life.
"So, what are you still worried about?" Bo Yan smiled.
"I..." Originally, it was a miscommunication, and after clarifying, it was almost not a problem, "I’m worried about my safety. Isn’t it chaotic abroad, especially with the pandemic now? What if so perverted serial killer targets beauties like ?"
This person would never admit to being vulnerable.
"Who would dare target you? Aren’t they afraid of signing their own death sentence?" Bo Yan laughed.
"What did you say?" Xia Siyu glared, and Bo Yan imdiately smiled again: "I said you’re beautiful and skillful."
"Now that’s more like it."
By this point, there wasn’t much left to argue about. Bo Yan said, "However, you really need to pay attention and don’t remove your mask just for comfort. Always wear it, understand? And always have soone with you. When outside, people might have guns; you never know what might happen, so don’t act recklessly. If nothing goes wrong, there’s just a one in ten thousand chance, but if sothing does, it’s hundred percent. I don’t want you getting hurt."
Xia Siyu nodded.
"Other than that, there’s not much. But, being apart for so long, I’ll miss you."
Six months was a rough tifra, though specifics would be in the contract. The preparation phase would be no less than half a month, filming no less than three months, and with quarantine due to the pandemic, the soonest they’d et again would be in about five months.
Additionally, Xia Siyu’s birthday would be missed during these five months. If it weren’t for the pandemic, he could have flown to see her abroad, but now with the quarantine regulations, he could only be a pining husband at ho.
