After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.

Chapter 616 When you insult someone, you should use language that the other person can understand.

Su Xingyi only realized later that she empathized with the character Dugu Chou.

All she could say was that when she auditioned, the other party suggested she try out for the role of Dugu Chou, which showed they had a really sharp eye...

Before that, judging from the online opinions, I couldn't believe that Ye Sanqing was a real actress, let alone that she could judge which role a person was suitable for at a glance.

If that's the case, then directing might be a better fit than acting...

But Ye Sanqing might have his own ideas, so Su Xingyi didn't say much.

After all, it's a normal career path for actors to become directors. Plus, Ye Sanqing is quite carefree, with no performance-related agreements or pressure to meet targets. He basically develops based on his own interests, so of course he should just do what makes him happy in the moment.

"I didn't expect that either."

Ye Sanqing said something very meaningful.

To be honest, I never actually acted it out. Although I could access the original body's experience, reading materials and experiencing it firsthand are two different things.

But these are the kinds of things that can't be said aloud.

Su Xingyi was taken aback. "Are you still in the cult leader's state?"

This is understandable, because although Ye Sanqing often speaks with hidden meanings, he has almost never shown this side of himself in front of Su Xingyi.

Not only does the character of Dugu Chou fit the actor, but Dugu Rang's character also fits the role to some extent...

"Yes, I'm going to stay like this for a day. In a little while I'll order them to carry me back."

"Hilarious! They're actually carrying it? Aren't there mechanical carriages?"

"I've changed my mind. It's not impressive enough without manpower. You people from the Central Plains are dull and don't understand high technology. You need people to surround you to show off."

Ye Sanqing said solemnly.

The claim that the Flower Palace has no flowers is not just a figure of speech. The flowers and decorations in those palaces, which seem lifelike, are actually all... handicrafts.

In short, they are all made of inorganic materials, and the fact that they are mechanical carriages that do not require human power also reflects this point.

The true nature of the Palace of Prosperity is that it forcibly creates life in a lifeless place.

All these props have this meaning in them. Of course, Ye Sanqing didn't really need people to pull them; she was just teasing Su Xingyi casually.

"...What are you talking about? Hahaha..."

Su Xingyi was overjoyed; she imagined the situation.

Because it's as absurd as humans pulling cars or trains—things that are clearly not driven by human power...

It also has a strangely post-apocalyptic punk vibe.

However, on the other hand, if the background setting isn't martial arts, then the setting of places like the Flower Palace does indeed look quite like a post-apocalyptic punk.

"That's right. When you're cursing someone, you have to use language that the other person can understand. Don't you think that makes sense?"

Ye Sanqing continued seriously.

"How come I only realized today that your sense of humor... is truly unique..."

"Both of you!"

Qi Nanzhao raised the megaphone and shouted, "There's a position that needs adjusting, please come over here!"

The two immediately obeyed the director's call and ran over.

“Look here… shift the angle a little to the left.”

Qi Nanzhao pointed at the monitor with a thin stick with a small decoration at the top.

Upon closer inspection, Ye Sanqing realized that the little decoration was a cartoon version of a glove, but with the index finger extended.

It seems I'm not the only one with a unique sense of humor...

As she said, there were only minor issues with the angles and the possibility that Su Xingyi's clothes might fly up and block part of the shot.

However, we can only hope that the wind isn't too strong. In strong winds, nothing can be controlled, and you can only eat a mouthful of sand and continue filming.

Apart from that, the lines and actions are all fine; now we're just waiting for the other people to arrive.

In this scene, the pavilion master beside Dugu Rang is not Xiao Moyi, but two Venerables, Chixiao and Qingzhang.

Of course, although there weren't many guards, there were still some, including the character of Yin Junqi.

Before Dugu Chou came looking for them, they displayed an attitude of having the audacity to roam freely in other people's territory despite not having many men with them.

This occurred after the first step of the invasion of the Central Plains was accomplished, so other sects were also eager to make their move. They were able to obtain intelligence on Dugu Rang's actions, but they generally believed it was a trap to lure the enemy, so they did not take action.

Of course, the scenes of interaction between other sects will be filmed at the next film studio in the filming schedule.

Dugu Rang bringing Chixiao and Qingzhang along may seem like a casual gesture, but it actually has a purpose.

The Central Plains were not peaceful; some areas were shrouded in mist and miasma most of the time. Under the influence of this miasma, ordinary people easily became dull-witted and slow-moving.

It's unclear whether this is due to climate or human factors, and they need to find out.

Actually, when the demonic sect entered the city, there was a scene where a mechanical puppet was scattering flower petals in all directions.

What may seem like a grand display is actually due to the fact that these fake flower petals contain components that prevent the evaporation of miasma.

This scene will be filmed later.

Returning to the current scene, inspecting the environment is a natural fit for Qingzhang, but bringing Chixiao along...

The intention was to show him that the Central Plains could not be conquered simply by charging forward.

The reason he didn't bring Xiao Moyi was because he was very clear that he had collected this intelligence himself, and there was no need for him to come and see it again.

There are some subtle things involved. For example, Chi Xiao might subtly express dissatisfaction with Xiao Moyi's "favoritism," while Qing Zhang is completely indifferent to it.

This means that there is a delicate balance of power within the Demonic Sect.

The others have arrived now. Everyone nodded and greeted each other, and then they waited for their positions to be set up before makeup and filming began.

The event wasn't particularly large, but there were still quite a few people, plus issues like machine scheduling. It took more than an hour to walk around the venue.

Ye Sanqing glanced at the sky and knew that the timing was perfect. After they finished their makeup and got their looks done, they would probably be filming non-stop during this best time of day, so they had to eat now.

She's been up for four hours now...

However, a coffee truck arrived at that moment, and Ye Sanqing was speechless when he saw the message of support.

Even when Lu Mingye isn't physically present, he's still trying to make his presence felt.

Could he be bringing Lu Wangshen's coffee over here?

However, Lu Mingye didn't go too far, he simply expressed his friendliness.

"Very well," Ye Sanqing thought to himself, "I will eat and drink my way out of the Lu family one day."

That seems like a pretty good way to defeat your opponent.

Ye Wanyin needs to step up her efforts. What if the Lu family has already squandered all their wealth before she succeeds?

Of course, such a thing would not happen; Ye Sanqing was just thinking about it.
