Chapter 1165 - 1162: That Was Quite a Heavy Hand
Because of a sneeze earlier, Bi Xia needed to reshoot a scene, but for a newcomer, it’s rare to shoot such a long emotional transition scene without a single NG, something that even the so-called popular idols rarely achieve.Moreover, the boy’s every move, his every smile, even a single glance was perfectly executed—not a bit too much nor too little—leaving no room for criticism, which made Director Zhang, who was specially invited to film this MV, very satisfied and nod his head in great appreciation, "Good, very good!"
Luo Hao stood beside Director Zhang, observing him calmly, with a glint of curiosity in his eyes, and asked, "Director Zhang, what’s happened? Why are you smiling so happily?"
"Luo Liu," Director Zhang didn’t hide anything, as he was famously straightforward in the industry, and if one were to talk about it, he was quite a respected figure in Beijing’s entertainment circle. Since he had good relations with Luo Hao’s family, he often supported Luo Hao and Xu Renfei when they ventured into the entertainment sphere. So regarding Luo Hao and Xu Renfei, he always spoke his mind, "The actor you chose this time is great. With that acting, I could put him directly on screen."
Turning his head towards Luo Hao, he asked, "Tell me, where did you find such a gem? I’ve never seen this child in the industry before."
Luo Hao seemed to realize who Director Zhang was talking about. He chuckled and shook his head, "Uncle Zhang, you’re mistaken; this kid isn’t from our circle, but you might have heard his name, especially with the commotion about Little Seven’s recent incident."
"Oh? Little Seven’s incident?" Director Zhang thought for a moment, "Are you saying it’s about that Little Seven’s hitting incident? But I remember that An Yi doesn’t look like this, and Little Seven surely wouldn’t hire An Yi to act in his MV. Look at his diligence towards that kid now; someone who doesn’t know better might think he’s his own brother."
"Uncle Zhang, funny enough, he is our younger brother," Luo Hao laughed, "This little guy was personally brought into our group by Fourth Brother, and now, not only Little Seven, but everyone who meets him dotes on him endlessly. If Little Seven wasn’t diligent, as the first brother besides Fourth Brother to meet Little Nine, he’d be green with envy."
"Hahahahaha," listening to Luo Hao talk about the young guys’ competitive jealousy, Director Zhang burst into laughter, "You all... So this kid is the Bi Xia who’s a sensation online?"
"Yes, it’s Bi Xiaojiu."
Director Zhang took a closer look at Bi Xia in the lens, who was joking lazily with Xu Renfei, "He does seem even more handsome in person than on screen, but he looks too young, almost like a girl."
Speaking of which, Director Zhang then asked, "Has he studied acting before?"
"Not at all," Luo Hao replied earnestly, "He even told me when he came that if he couldn’t act well, he could be replaced anytime, so he wouldn’t drag down the group’s progress."
"Is that so?" Director Zhang lightly frowned, "Then why did he agree to shoot this MV for Xu Xiaoqi?"
Luo Hao rolled his eyes talking about this, which surprised Director Zhang as Luo Hao usually gave the impression of being a sly, grinning businessman, "Wasn’t it Xu Xiaoqi’s own doing? He didn’t consult Little Nine and simply announced it on Weibo, leaving Little Nine no chance to refuse."
Director Zhang heard this and laughed, "And such a cheeky move didn’t get him beaten up?"
Only to see Luo Hao smile slightly, "Someone’s been coming and going wearing sunglasses for three days straight; you tell me if he got beaten up or not."
Director Zhang: ...Seems like he took quite a beating, huh...
