The female supporting role became popular in the survival show

After Su Xi cheered up, she devoted herself to work, but various problems still came one after another.

The new film she wanted to shoot encountered a shortage of funds during the preparation stage. She had to look for investors everywhere, but most investors were not interested in this kind of literary and artistic subject matter that did not cater to the mainstream market.

"Director Su, your idea is good, but the risk is too high. We have to consider the rate of return." An investor bluntly rejected her.

Su Xi was filled with helplessness and frustration: "Is there no one willing to invest in a truly valuable movie?"

She kept attending various investment conferences, going there with high hopes but returning disappointed every time.

"I've been running around all day, but haven't managed to get much investment." Su Xi complained to his assistant.

At the same time, the team also had disagreements on the creation of the script. The screenwriters had their own ideas and no one was willing to give in.

"This plot is designed like this to have more depth!"

"No, it's too complicated and the audience won't understand it."

The heated argument gave Su Xi a headache.

"Everyone calm down. Our goal is to make a good movie, not to argue here." Su Xi tried to calm down the argument.

Su Xi also encountered difficulties in casting. Some of the actors she had her eyes on were unable to participate due to schedule or salary issues, and the actors who were willing to participate did not fit the role image she had in mind.

"Why is it so difficult to find a suitable actor? Should I lower the standards because of this?" Su Xi was caught in a dilemma.

In order to save costs, Su Xi also spent a lot of time on props and costumes. She personally went to the market to select and bargain with the merchants.

"Boss, please make it cheaper. Our budget is really limited."

"No, Director Su, this is already the lowest price."

Su Xi was so tired that she was out of breath: "This bargaining job is more tiring than filming a movie."

The weather also caused trouble on the set. The continuous rainy weather delayed the shooting progress again and again.

"When will the rain stop? If it continues like this, all our plans will be disrupted." Su Xi looked at the rain outside the window, feeling anxious.

The actors' conditions were also unstable, and some made frequent mistakes in their performances due to excessive pressure.

"We've shot this line several times, why is it still not passing?" Su Xi couldn't help but raise her voice.

But she immediately realized that her attitude might affect the actors' emotions, so she quickly adjusted her tone and gave patient guidance.

"Don't be nervous, relax, let's do it again."

In terms of family, Su Xi spends less and less time with her family, and the children complain that she is never at home.

"Mom, when can you go out and play with me?"

Su Xi felt guilty and said, "Baby, I'll accompany you after I'm done with this."

Her husband also advised her to take care of her health and not to work too hard.

"You'll collapse if you keep doing this. Movies are important, but so is your health."

Su Xi agreed verbally, but she couldn't let go of her work.

During a meeting with a partner, the other party made some unreasonable demands, which Su Xi firmly disagreed with.

“It will affect the quality of the film and we cannot compromise.”

"Director Su, please don't be so stubborn. This will not benefit anyone."

The two sides were deadlocked and the meeting ended in a bad mood.

"These people only care about profits and don't understand art at all." Su Xi said angrily.

Back in the office, Su Xi sat there alone, feeling unprecedented loneliness and pressure.

"Why is this road so difficult? Should I give up?" But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she immediately rejected it.

"No, I can't give up. This is my dream."

She took a deep breath, reorganized her thoughts, and prepared to face the next challenge.
