Lin Haoshen picked up the cigarette pack and took out a cigarette.

I didn't tap it, I just twirled it between my fingers twice.

"I've read this script several times, and the female lead really does rarely participate in battles."

He tucked the cigarette behind his ear, leaned back in his chair with his hands on the armrests, and gave a somewhat lecturing look.

"Most war dramas are male-centric, but if the female actors do a good job of portraying the domestic life, the romantic storylines, and the female lead's growth, then the drama is a success."

Bai Xixi quickly nodded in agreement, "That's right, we actresses should indeed focus our efforts on what we are good at."

She looked at Su Wuli as she spoke.

"The dramas set in the inner quarters, including the romance and the female lead's growth, are both challenging. If Teacher Su wants to focus on the war scenes, she should first thoroughly understand her own role."

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Jiaen continued to speak.

"Teacher Lu and Teacher Wen are right. In our play, the female lead should focus her attention on the inner quarters, not the battlefield."

She glanced at Su Wuli, her gaze sweeping across her face, pausing for a moment, before looking away.

"If Teacher Su is so interested in war dramas, next time you can take on a script about a female general, and you can study it however you like."

One person after another, one sentence after another, silencing the person completely.

Lin Liwen knew that many people were eyeing this project, but she didn't expect to be targeted like this right from the start.

If you don't answer well and don't leave a good impression on the director and producer, the project is essentially doomed.

She was just thinking about how to defuse the situation.

Suddenly, Su Wuli pushed the plate forward.

The bottom of the plate made a soft, scraping sound as it scraped against the table.

He then slowly opened his lips and said, "The quality of a play cannot be determined by any one part."

She spoke slowly, even with a touch of indifference.

"Since we're in the discussion phase now, is it alright for me to point out anything I see that's unreasonable and discuss it with you?"

She looked at Chen Jiaen as she spoke, her gaze never leaving her.

Chen Jiaen paused for a moment, holding the chopsticks, when she was looked at.

Su Wuli continued, "I just feel that if we're going to film a battlefield scene, we should make the battlefield look like a battlefield."

She turned her gaze away and continued.

"We don't want the audience to see the inconsistencies and problems as soon as they watch it; otherwise, the show will fail."

Her gaze swept over the people at the table.

The group was taken aback. They hadn't expected that a girl who looked harmless and obviously weak would actually confront them head-on.

At this moment, everyone's face showed a hint of unease.

Su Wuli ignored them and continued speaking.

"I did not mean to disrespect the screenwriter, nor did I disrespect anyone here."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "We're all filming together. If you have any questions, just ask; if you have any ideas, just say them. There's no need to distinguish between men and women."

Lin Liwen, sitting next to him, was still recovering from her earlier worries.

She looked at Su Wuli's profile and the way her chin was slightly raised as she spoke.

And his tone was calm and unhurried.

She always felt that something was different about her when she was with this girl.

It's changed a bit since the last time I had this idea.

Lu Ting spun the wine glass twice and then stopped.

He picked up the glass, took a sip, held the liquid in his mouth for a moment, and then swallowed.

He immediately composed himself and concealed his awkwardness.

"What Wuli said makes sense." His voice was still steady. "But it's a play; the audience is watching a story, not a documentary."

After he finished speaking, he picked up his glass and took another sip, then shifted his gaze to Jiang Yuchuan's face.

A faint smile still lingered on his lips.

Wen Yu glanced at Su Wuli, then lowered his head again, not responding to Lu Ting's words.

Lin Haoshen took the unlit cigarette off his ear and placed it on the table.

He leaned back in his chair, tapping his fingers on the armrest twice, recovering from the shock.

Some were unwilling to be lectured by the younger generation.

"Having ideas is a good thing. Young people are energetic and dare to speak up. However, having ideas is one thing, and putting them into practice is another. Anyone can talk the talk, but whether they can be put into action on set depends on the cooperation between the director and the actors."

He looked at Su Wuli as he said this, with a hint of suppression in his eyes.

When Bai Xixi saw someone speaking, she hurriedly opened her mouth to reply.

"Teacher Su is right. The play is a collaborative effort, but if we each do our part well, that's the biggest contribution we can make to the play."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Chen Jiaen and gave a subtle hint.

Chen Jiaen received the message and then spoke.

"If you have any ideas, you can communicate with the screenwriter privately. We won't get any results from discussing it here. The director and screenwriter are the ones who make the decisions."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Yuchuan, but the director was holding a teacup and didn't look at her.

moment.

Jiang Yuchuan finally put down the cup without looking at anyone.

His gaze fell on the plate of food on the turntable, which had already gone cold. After looking at it for a while, he picked up his chopsticks and took a piece.

I put it in my mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and swallowed it.

He placed his chopsticks on the edge of the plate, leaned back in his chair, and began to speak slowly.

"Mr. Shen and I were discussing this matter yesterday."

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence on the table.

Producer Shen Yanyang was twirling a lighter in his hand when he heard this, so he put the lighter down.

He began, "The archers' positions are indeed problematic."

As Shen Yanyang spoke, he spun the turntable, and a plate of peanuts stopped in front of him. He ate one.

"Our consultants also pointed this out, and the plan hasn't been revised yet."

He looked at Su Wuli as he spoke, "The fact that you could tell means you really studied the script carefully."

Jiang Yuchuan turned his head to look at Lu Ting, who was still holding a wine glass and forgot what he was doing.

Jiang Yuchuan shifted his gaze from his face, glanced at Wen Yu, and then at Lin Haoshen.

The gaze was neither quick nor heavy.

However, this silence is the most stressful.

"The battlefield atmosphere you just mentioned was too weak."

Jiang Yuchuan's voice was not loud, "What Wuli said is the real issue. Acting is not something that can be shouted out; it is built up from one detail after another."

Lu Ting still had that smile on his lips, but half of it had already disappeared from his face.

But they could only maintain a respectable appearance and couldn't show any other expressions.

Wen Yu lowered his head, staring at the untouched dish in front of him.

A stiff look flashed across Lin Haoshen's face.

Bai Xixi and Chen Jiaen seemed to have been put on pause, and at this moment, they seemed to have been slapped in the face.

Jiang Yuchuan turned his gaze away from those people's faces and towards Su Wuli.

His gaze fell on her face, and the expression in his eyes was different from before.

With a more serious scrutiny, as if confirming something.

"You have a lot of ideas for this role. Come to the company tomorrow and we'll discuss it in detail."

Shen Yanyang spoke up, "We were still hesitating about the female lead, but now we have an idea."

The meaning is obvious.
