Chapter 9: Let him go to the hospital to get his eyes treated.
Xu An never expected that his first scene as a stand-in would involve Wu Moubo carrying him.
This is so exciting!
Wu Moubo is currently enjoying immense popularity, and is even the executive producer of this drama.
His arrogant and domineering personality makes him a difficult person to deal with.
Xu An stood quietly to the side, watching Liu Huan, who played Cao Rui, and Wu Moubo put on a dramatic performance.
Liu Huan and Cao Rui exuded a chilling aura, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows.
Wu Xiubo's face was full of trepidation, fear and apprehension, and he even controlled his eyes and facial expressions perfectly.
He truly has the right to be arrogant.
Liu Huan placed his hands on Wu Moubo's shoulders, leaned close to his ear, and spoke in a sinister tone:
"The person I fear most, and the person I rely on most, is you."
"Now I entrust the Crown Prince to you. You must carry the world of my Great Wei on your back, just as you carried me on your back back then."
When Liu Huan finished speaking, Wu Moubo's emotions fluctuated greatly, and even his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
Only after hearing the last sentence did he relax, as if he had just been pulled out of the river.
It must be said that Wu Moubo portrayed Sima Yi's state at this moment very well; he was genuinely afraid that Cao Rui would take him with him!
"I will carry it!"
The words had barely left his lips.
The director immediately called for the sound effects card.
This isn't a break for them; it's time for Xu An, the stand-in, to step in.
Xu An quickly approached Wu Moubo and nimbly climbed onto his back.
"Don't make any mistakes, I don't want to have to start over on N machines." Wu Moubo's voice was very cold.
"Don't worry, Producer Wu, just you wait and see!"
Pick it up, absorb it!
[Gloomy temperament +2]
[Panic level +1]
The next second, Xu An's demeanor changed completely, transforming from harmless to a sinister and gloomy person.
That wasn't all. Xu An even used the "Get into character" technique, completely immersed in the role, to the point that even Wu Moubo beneath him noticed.
I didn't expect that a mere stand-in could get into character so quickly, and that his demeanor could change so easily.
Despite his surprise, Wu Moubo remained immersed in the play, carrying Xu An slowly forward.
Until Xu An's hand drooped limply.
"His Majesty!!!"
"His Majesty!!!"
The palace was filled with wailing sounds, as if the father had died.
This also highlights the contributions of the extras; they really stepped up when needed!
But the most impressive one was Wu Moubo. After he noticed that Xu An's hand was hanging limply, his panicked expression instantly changed.
His expression shifted from relief to ferocity, his face turning sinister, like that of a vicious tiger.
The only person who could suppress Sima Yi finally died; he outlived three generations of wise rulers of the Cao family!
"Card!"
"Thank you for your hard work, Producer Wu. Quickly get someone off the tablets. Did you get them crushed?"
The director sounded very anxious, as if he wished he could fly to Wu Moubo's side to check on him personally.
The title of executive producer is no joke!
"I'm fine. This kid isn't heavy. Let me see if the footage from earlier can be used."
After Wu Moubo finished speaking, he immediately went to the "supervisor" and sat in the original director's seat.
Director Zhang Yongxin was sensible, after all, he was just an unknown nobody at the moment, and had not yet directed a film to prove himself, "The Age of Awakening".
"Director Zhang, take a look, didn't this kid's demeanor change instantly just now?"
Wu Moubo pointed to the "supervisor," and the director immediately leaned over.
"Yes, he seemed harmless before, but he quickly turned sinister."
"Not bad, I didn't expect him to be such a promising talent. He has a great appearance and a good temperament."
Wu Moubo's words made Xu An lean closer to listen.
However, he didn't hear Wu Moubo say anything more for a long time. Instead, he talked to Director Zhang about other things.
Xu An didn't react much. He understood perfectly well that this was just someone saying it on a whim and didn't mean anything.
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
Just as Xu An was leaving, he discovered that Wang Jinsong and Zhai Tianlin were standing next to him.
Wang Jinsong smiled at Xu An: "Young man, you must have formal training, right?"
"Hello, Professor Wang, I am a student from the Shanghai Theatre Academy."
"You're quite good. It's rare to find someone as young and formally trained as you playing a minor role here."
"There's nothing wrong with playing minor roles. It's down-to-earth and makes the lines more relatable."
Xu An's words brought a relieved smile to Wang Jinsong's face, a stark contrast to his expression towards Zhai Tianlin.
"Teacher Wang, let's go in first. I need your help with the decision-making for this scene," Zhai Tianlin hurriedly suggested.
These words caused Wang Jinsong's smile to gradually fade, but he didn't say anything. He simply turned to Xu An and said, "Keep up the good work, young man."
Xu An watched the two figures walk away without paying much attention, then turned around and ran to the rest area to cool off.
Just as he was about to light one, his phone suddenly rang.
The caller was Tian Xiwei.
"Feed?"
"Hey? Xu An, you answered pretty quickly this time. Before, it always took you a long time to answer the phone."
"I just finished filming and am resting."
"Really? Looks like I chose the perfect time." Tian Xi pouted and put her hands on her hips, her face full of smugness.
Her roommate, looking suspicious, grabbed Tian Xiwei's arm and said:
"Xiaotian, something's wrong with you! Tell me! Who were you calling?"
"Shh, don't make a fuss, don't argue, let me finish my call first."
"No, I won't let you make the call unless you tell me."
"Hey? Where are you pinching? Don't touch me!"
Tian Xiwei's voice carried a hint of panic, clearly indicating that someone was about to cross her line.
"Hehe, why don't you just tell the truth? Otherwise, I'll have to torture you!"
"Don't push me. Stay away from me while I'm in a good mood, otherwise..."
"What else can I do? You're on the phone, you don't have time to worry about me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu An heard the sound of a phone being slammed shut, followed by Tian Xiwei's roommate's pleading voice.
"Help! I won't do it again, I'll never do it again, please don't pinch me! You've already squashed me flat!"
"..."
Xu An held his phone, completely exasperated.
"Hey, Xu An, you're not dead, are you?"
Tian Xiwei's sweet voice came again, and Xu An even wondered if he was hallucinating.
Is this a person?
"Okay, you can say what you want."
"Nothing much, I just ran into an annoying guy today who actually tried to pursue me!"
Upon hearing this, the room fell into a moment of silence.
After a while, Tian Xiwei continued, "Don't you have anything to say?"
"I don't have much to say. Isn't it natural that you're popular?"
"You really don't have anything to say?"
"Take him to the hospital to get his eyes checked!"
"???"
"Xu An! I'll punch you..."
