Shangguan Ling slapped the table and startled Director Liu. He didn’t know what was going on with Mr. Shangguan.

He obviously didn’t say anything.

How could Shangguan Ling be so unhappy?

Ye Tianxin put her hand on Shangguan Ling’s shoulder and said, “Shangguan Ling…”

Shangguan Ling looked at Ye Tianxin and said, “Tianxin, you…”

Ye Tianxin shook her head silently. She couldn’t tell whether or not Director Liu was telling the truth.

In the 1980s and 1990s of the last century, the film market in Mingzhu City had essentially exploded; countless outstanding and famous films were made during that time.

Although the film market in Mingzhu City had gradually declined with the rise of the imperial film market, the filmmakers in Mingzhu City still had an air of condescension about them.

The filmmakers in Mingzhu City had always looked down on the filmmakers in the Imperial Capital; they felt as if those filmmakers didn’t have any talents that made them stand out from the rest.

Although Ye Tianxin was quite famous in the Imperial Capital, she might not be as famous as a young lady from a wealthy family in Mingzhu City.

What’s more, the people in Mingzhu City always had a certain air of superiority about them.

They despised the Empire movies. Naturally, they despised the people in the film industry, too.

Even if Director Liu knew that Ye Tianxin was the heroine Ying Tao in the movie Red Cherry, what did that matter to him?

It was just a movie.

She was just an 18th-tier actress who only had acted in one movie.

Ye Tianxin said, “I’m not sure what Director Liu’s talking about. Maybe I was lucky for my first movie to be so well-known.”

Ye Tianxin was telling the truth. The movie Red Cherry was a great box office hit.

Ye Tianxin had become the youngest Grand Slam Queen in film history as a result.

Of course, this was an impressive feat in itself.

“Traditionally, a movie face has to be distinctive, but your face is beautiful enough to steal the audience’s attention from the movie…”

Ye Tianxin said lightly, “Well, Director Liu and I have different opinions. I think there is no such thing as a movie face. People are considered different based on the kinds of food they eat, but their appearances aren’t that important. The most important thing is whether or not you can play your part well once you get the script. If you can do that, even a peerless beauty can still stand in front of the big screen. After all, it requires acting skills. A beauty without acting skills is a vase in a movie at best. The audience will ignore a beautiful actress if her acting skills are good enough; they’ll feel all of her emotions.”

Director Liu was also a top-ranked director in the Mingzhu film industry.

He never imagined that he would be laughed at by an 18th-tier actress in Shenhai City.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Miss Ye, you seem very confident in your own acting skills.”

Ye Tianxin smiled slightly, “I’m not that confident, I haven’t had any professional training. Perhaps I was just lucky that my first film was produced by a famous director.”

Director Liu looked at Ye Tianxin. The general famous directors weren’t used to such peerless beauties.

Such beauties would steal the glory of the movie.

He thought it was probably because the newcomer’s director had yet to grasp the essence of the film industry.
