Chapter 17
Director Hua felt deeply moved by Yao Bianliang's words.
This was indeed something he hadn't noticed during today's rehearsal.
Fundamentally, Director Hua himself deeply despised this villain. So when he saw Mu Taozhi portraying the villain's ugly character, he didn't feel anything was wrong.
But after Yao Bianliang's reminder, he immediately understood.
Mu Taozhi's acting direction had been wrong from the beginning!
W̌ ёḃ n̂ о v е́l̀ Ӗn ũ m̂а̌
To others, this villain was indeed morally bankrupt, but the villain himself didn't believe he was malicious.
Therefore, Mu Taozhi, as the actor playing the villain, shouldn't view this character as malicious either.

Only when his inner thoughts became one with the character could he truly become the character, rather than just exaggeratedly mimicking the character's words and actions.
"Yes, you're absolutely right," Director Hua's voice was somewhat excited, with a hint of sudden enlightenment. "This is something I overlooked."
He had originally thought that Mu Taozhi's performance was due to his inadequate acting skills.
But now it seemed that beyond acting skills, his attitude was an even more serious problem.

If an actor doesn't fully embody the character throughout the performance, the result will naturally be unsatisfactory.
Yao Bianliang outwardly smiled and nodded, but inwardly she felt truly relieved.
As long as the director could recognize the importance of this point, everything would be easily resolved.
"But Director, it's very difficult for an actor to understand and identify with a twisted villain," Yao Bianliang probed. "Do you have any good methods?"

Director Hua was taken aback, then fell silent.
He was too embarrassed to say that he hadn't actually considered this issue at all; he had only planned to remind Mu Taozhi to be mindful of it.
Ën um̀ ä.
After careful thought, Director Hua still said: "He could try imagining that this character experienced tragic circumstances from childhood, and from there understand the character's twisted inner world, right?"
Yao Bianliang's mouth twitched slightly.
That's it? How could that possibly help anyone understand?
She would guarantee that if Mu Taozhi heard this explanation, he wouldn't truly grasp the concept at all.
Yao Bianliang sighed: "Director Hua, I personally feel that if one thinks from the villain's perspective, it's easy to see that he hasn't actually done anything wrong."
Director Hua was startled, surprise flashing in his eyes: "He orchestrated an investment scam, disrupted market order, and caused countless innocent people to lose their life savings—and he hasn't done anything wrong?"

"Of course he did something wrong," Yao Bianliang said somewhat helplessly. "But according to this villain's twisted mindset, he would believe he did nothing wrong."
"What did he do wrong? He never forced anyone to invest, and didn't even encourage them to take the bait. It was those people who, after hearing about the high profits, swarmed in voluntarily."
"If those people weren't so greedy, if they had stopped after earning a few thousand or tens of thousands, they could have received that substantial interest. Why did they end up losing everything later?"
"He fabricated a lie, then coldly observed as others, driven by boundless greed, became like madmen, using their life savings, even selling houses and taking out loans, all for unearned wealth and easy money."
"Finally, those people's dreams of living off interest without working awakened, the bubble burst—and what remained was only an endless abyss."
"The reason they lost everything and their families were destroyed wasn't because of the instigator of this incident, but because of the greed in their hearts. So in the end, they had to pay the price for their greed and baseness, reaping what they sowed."

Director Hua stood frozen, unable to come back to his senses for quite some time.
Yao Bianliang's speech was delivered with such conviction and force that for a moment, he almost believed this logic was flawless.

Fortunately, after the initial shock, Director Hua also calmed down.
The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
"Good point. If analyzed from this perspective, then Mu Taozhi should be able to understand the character's psychological journey!"
Moreover, Yao Bianliang's words not only helped Mu Taozhi understand but also elevated this villain character's status by more than twofold!

Sometimes, whether a villain has appeal greatly depends on the actor's understanding.
If an actor performs well, even the most vicious character can provoke profound reflections; conversely, if an actor performs poorly, even the most well-rounded character will be despised.
Currently, when Mu Taozhi acted, he might as well have had "I am a bad guy" carved on his forehead.
Such a performance was completely superficial and couldn't move the audience at all.

Only if Mu Taozhi acted with the mindset described by Yao Bianliang would he transform directly from a psychologically twisted criminal into a mastermind who sees through human nature, stands above all, and controls the entire situation.
Realizing this, Director Hua was both excited and deeply moved. He looked at Yao Bianliang with extremely complex emotions.
Е̃ ň um̄ а̄
He had truly lucked out to meet such an excellent actress!
Yao Bianliang not only performed her own scenes well but also helped other actors understand their characters and perform better, even guiding them into their roles during the performance.
This was truly a teammate you couldn't find even with a lamp in broad daylight.
"Thank you," Director Hua said sincerely. "You're right, this was my oversight."
Originally, Director Hua had been eager to finish work, but after hearing Yao Bianliang's analysis, he felt greatly inspired and was no longer in a hurry to leave.
He humbly asked: "You mentioned earlier that He Yanning's acting direction also has problems. What's that about?"

Seeing that Director Hua wanted to hear more, Yao Bianliang naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. She immediately took out the script from her bag and began explaining to Director Hua.
To help the two young idols perform better, she had done thorough preparation.
Just for the annotations beside the dialogue, she had used three different colored pens. The various notes were densely packed, making one's scalp tingle just looking at them.
Director Hua was also shocked by her annotations: "You... wrote so much?"
Not only had she written notes for the female police officer's lines, but she had also thoroughly analyzed the male lead's and villain's dialogues.
Director Hua had seen many actors analyze their own characters in detail. But he had truly never seen someone who also annotated other characters so thoroughly.

Yao Bianliang felt quite helpless inside.
She didn't want to do this either!

But the problem was, if she didn't work hard, how could she help the two young idols improve their acting?
"May I take these annotations back to review?" Director Hua requested. "I'd like to copy some parts and return them to you tomorrow."
Yao Bianliang naturally couldn't ask for more: "Of course."
Having a director willing to teach earnestly was undoubtedly a good thing for her.
Еǹú m̄ а̄
"However, Director Hua, when explaining the scenes, please don't tell them these are my ideas," Yao Bianliang reminded.
Director Hua was startled: "Why not?"
Yao Bianliang: "I don't want them to know these are my ideas. Please keep this secret for me."
Yao Bianliang had originally wanted to find a reason to explain a bit more, but that might backfire.

If Director Hua misunderstood and did something he thought was good for her, that would be very problematic.
So she simply stated it firmly, giving Director Hua no opportunity to undermine her.
W еbn оv̈el̊ Е n ûm̈ а
Hearing this, Director Hua was shocked and somewhat puzzled.
Why would Yao Bianliang help He Yanning and Mu Taozhi like this yet not want them to know?
It's worth noting that she was actually in competition with these two. The better Mu Taozhi and He Yanning performed, the less advantageous Yao Bianliang's position would be.
In such circumstances, she helped her competitors yet didn't want them to know the truth.
All this effort for no thanks—what was she after?
For some reason, Director Hua suddenly recalled the Fruit TV interview from a few days ago.

As a colleague of Cheng Liuhui, he had of course watched that interview video.
Cheng Liuhui had said that Yao Bianliang was an actress who didn't seek fame and fortune, focused only on the quality of her work, pure and resolute.
Originally, Director Hua hadn't fully believed such praise, thinking there must have been some exaggeration.
Nobody is a saint; who could completely disregard reputation and act only from the heart?
But at this moment, facing Yao Bianliang's words, Director Hua suddenly realized something.
Recalling everything that had happened today, all the details connected, and everything made sense.
Е́n̄.um ă . їd
Of course, Yao Bianliang wasn't doing this to earn Mu Taozhi and He Yanning's gratitude or repayment—
She was simply following her heart, taking her work seriously, wanting to improve the quality of this drama.

To raise the quality of the work, she hoped everyone would progress and work hard together, even willing to risk her competitors' improved acting threatening her position.
She even deliberately concealed her actions, using the director to achieve this purpose.
This was nothing but not wanting to be burdened by fame and fortune, to the point of losing her original intention.
Thinking about how Yao Bianliang never accepted marketing or interviews, only focusing on acting, this undoubtedly confirmed his guess.
W e bṅ о̂v̈ ë ľ Е̂ n ūm̆ а
Realizing this, Director Hua's emotions surged, and his gaze toward Yao Bianliang changed.
What kind of spirit was this!
Looking up to the heights, following the right path.
Director Hua felt this might be a level he could never reach in his lifetime.

"Alright. Don't worry," he looked at Yao Bianliang and solemnly promised. "Since you don't want them to know, I absolutely won't say anything."
The livestreaming work of "Good Drama PK Competition" progressed steadily.
Е nù ṁ а́ .і̌ d̄
Over the next two or three days, viewers quickly noticed that Group 6's improvement was becoming increasingly evident.
This rocket-like progress practically outpaced all other groups.
[Those contestants haven't even memorized their lines yet, but Group 6 can already rehearse the entire play completely]
[Ningning has to practice for so long every day, it's really tough, I feel bad for him]
[Mu Taozhi's improvement is really obvious, his acting isn't as exaggerated as before, somehow making him unexpectedly appealing]
[To the person above, you're not alone!]

[This acting is really good, though not particularly outstanding, it's definitely better than most]
[Ahhh, my brother is truly the best!]
Group 6's livestream was gaining more and more popularity.
Even though the contestants couldn't access the internet, they all learned about this news through other channels.
The joys and sorrows of different people cannot be shared.
Compared to the viewers' enthusiasm, various contestants' moods were far worse. As public opinion fermented, the atmosphere became visibly heavy.

That day, when Yao Xinxin returned to her dormitory, she overheard several roommates discussing.
"Is something wrong with the people in Group 6? Getting up at five in the morning, don't they get tired?"

"Yeah, it's just a variety show, why go to such lengths?"
"Sigh, they look diligent; but this way, doesn't it make us seem lazy?"
Everyone's faces showed frustration as they collectively criticized Group 6's competitive behavior.
Yao Xinxin's heart sank as she asked: "Group 6, isn't that He Yanning and Mu Taozhi's group?"
Ĕñùm a
"That's right," her roommate nodded. "I really don't know what's gotten into Mu Taozhi and He Yanning, suddenly becoming so hardworking."
"Xinxin, you've acted with Mu Taozhi before, so you should know him better. Is he usually hardworking?"
Yao Xinxin: "......" Of course not!
Yao Xinxin felt her brain was almost insufficient.

She still remembered clearly how Mu Taozhi had shirked work in every possible way.
What on earth had happened to make these two lazy contestants suddenly seem like completely different people?
Ẅe b n̆ ô ṽ ĕl En̊ ǔm̊.а
Thinking about the current public opinion situation, Yao Xinxin's face darkened.
As someone who prided herself on having good acting skills and being hardworking and diligent, she only got up at seven in the morning.
But now, two contestants with poor acting skills and no work ethic were actually working harder than her.
This was undoubtedly a huge blow to her.
"Are these two insane?"
Yao Xinxin's mood became heavy.

At this moment, she finally understood He Yanning's initial feelings.
With others working so hard, how could she still slack off with a clear conscience?
