One Word Changed, Characters in Chaos - Chapter 143: 120: Twenty Quota for Name Changes!

Chapter 143: Chapter 120: Twenty Quota for Name Changes!

The production crew was on a tight schedule, and Ye Xiao spent her days filming.

Fortunately, her acting was much more reliable than Li Mingyu had imagined, and he intentionally let the plot develop from shallow to deep.

In the early stages, there weren’t many difficult scenes, and the exploration of the characters’ inner worlds hadn’t yet reached its climax.

The filming progressed much faster than previously anticipated.

Lin Yun was the music director, but she didn’t need to stay on set all day; her job was to gather enough inspiration and compose some songs based on the film’s plot.

But.

Lin Yun stayed on set day after day. She didn’t interact with others much, just sitting in a secluded spot with a pen and a notebook, gently watching Ye Xiao.

Whenever Ye Xiao acted, Lin Yun would watch and write something. As soon as Ye Xiao took a break, Lin Yun was always the first to serve her tea and water. The assistant prepared by the Ye family for Ye Xiao was completely redundant.

Everyone on set was somewhat shocked.

Wasn’t the legendary Summer known for her cold demeanor and aloofness?

What relation did this person tenderly fussing over Ye Xiao, serving her tea and water, have to the rumors?

Li Mingyu couldn’t help but pull Ye Xiao aside and spoke to her earnestly, “Xiaoxiao, it’s Lin Yun’s first time taking on this kind of work. I didn’t know why before, but now I do, and it’s mostly because of you!”

Ye Xiao was baffled.

Because of her?

It… couldn’t be, right?

After all, she had only just met Lin Yun.

“They say when one man gains the Tao, his chicken and dogs ascend to heaven! Whether our movie can leave a bold stroke in film history depends entirely on you!” Li Mingyu said, patting Ye Xiao’s shoulder emphatically.

Music was inherently very important in a film like theirs that focused on music.

With Lin Yun acknowledged as a genius, this collaboration was truly perfect!

Ye Xiao nodded blankly.

Li Mingyu was very satisfied and said, “Good, go on. Sit with Lin Yun for a while longer.”

With that, Li Mingyu gently pushed Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao: “…”

Why did she suddenly feel like she was being pushed out as a peace offering?

Days passed in such harmony.

Ye Xiao’s quota for altering words steadily broke through to 20.

It looked like she had many words at her disposal.

But with many important plots coming up one after another, Ye Xiao found it was not enough.

That day.

Ye Xiao was filming as usual.

Before starting a scene, she deliberately checked the progress of several books.

None of the four books had generated any new plots.

Ye Xiao quickly immersed herself into her character and started filming.

After an hour.

There was a break.

Ye Xiao opened the book and checked again.

Ever since she discovered that these books would secretly update their plots, Ye Xiao would check them whenever she was free.

Because of Luo Li, Ye Xiao, especially recently, paid close attention to the book about Ye Bingtong.

She opened that book first.

Then.

She slightly furrowed her brows.

During the time she was filming.

The book had actually updated with a new segment.

The plot was simple.

Ye Xiao’s new film was being steadily shot, and the addition of Lin Yun had pushed the movie’s hype to a new level.

People said.

A film about a genius music girl now featured a real music genius. The music was guaranteed to perfectly match the plot and make the film a true classic.

Therefore.

Although the filming had just begun, the anticipation and popularity were already quite high.

How could Ye Bingtong be content with having the limelight stolen from her?

In her view, the film should have been hers originally, but it was shamelessly snatched away by Ye Xiao!

Lin Yun’s participation was undoubtedly because of her.

The two of them joining forces to suppress her was simply bullying.

She had to resist, she must resist!

Luckily, Luo Li was now under her control.

Luo Li had some dirt on Lin Yun, which was perfect since Xuanjia Music was frustrated about their decreasing influence after Lin Yun joined Yuxing.

Luo Li went to the boss of Xuanjia and delivered Lin Yun’s negative information.

Xuanjia was naturally overjoyed.

Then,

Xuanjia collaborated with some rivals of Yuxing Music and Xingguang Film and Television.

Together, they began to push Lin Yun’s negative information.

The so-called negative information was quite simple.

It was footage of Lin Yun during a mental breakdown, looking a bit deranged.

Although this time the surveillance was discovered by Lin Yun and removed in advance,

what about before?

Over the years, to keep control of Lin Yun, he had purposely taken quite a few such videos.

In fact, Lin Yun’s breakdowns sometimes happened due to her own emotional illness, and other times, even Luo Li would intentionally provoke her with words.

After following Lin Yun for so many years, he knew exactly how to trigger an episode.

That way, he could record the video, and then, in the video, he would pose as a pitiful, accommodating assistant.

Besides that,

Ye Bingtong also took the opportunity to purchase some paid articles, and the marketing accounts that were bought off questioned the situation in unison.

Li Mingyu suddenly signed with Xingguang Film and Television, and the female lead Ye Xiao just happens to be the younger sister of Ye Bolin, the boss of Xingguang Film and Television.

Was there some underhanded manipulation going on in all this?

Ye Bingtong’s paid articles even included Ye Xiao’s report card from school.

Whether it was acting class or theory class, her grades were consistently at the bottom.

Furthermore,

Ye Xiao had no music foundation whatsoever.

The marketing account finally stated,

They really couldn’t understand where Ye Xiao fit the part of a musical prodigy.

The final conclusion was,

Li Mingyu ultimately succumbed to capital as well.

At the same time, the paid articles also sneakily mentioned that Ye Bingtong was a super music prodigy who had once defeated Lin Yun. Originally, she was the most suitable for the role.

It’s just a pity, though.

The Ye Family, to pave the way for their biological daughter, not only cast out this poor adopted daughter but also colluded with the media to relentlessly defame her. The negative media environment surrounding Ye Bingtong must definitely be the Ye Family’s doing.

In this offensive,

Ye Bingtong was not the main instigator.

Currently, she had no such capacity.

After she let Luo Li release Lin Yun’s negative information, most of the remaining matters were handled by capital.

The reason was simple.

The popularity of “Dark Night” was just too high at the moment.

While Xingguang Film and Television and Yuxing Music both had some clout, they also had numerous rivals.

No one wanted to see this movie become a hit before it even aired, and if it sucked up the market, wouldn’t their films suffer?

Since that was the case, it was necessary to strike first.

It can only be said,

Pei Yue was very smart.

What he wanted to target were actually Ye Xiao and Lin Yun.

But with “Dark Night” being so hot at the moment, targeting Ye Xiao and Lin Yun would also target the movie. That was the reason he gave for many rival capital to also take to the field.

In the novel, Pei Yue was portrayed as a strategist, always ready to launch a full assault on the villains, with a subtle sense of an impending storm.

Ye Xiao, looking at it, just wanted to sneer.

A male lead who only knew how to use schemes and tricks could be called a strategist?

Indeed!

In the previous life’s novel, Pei Yue had risen to power through dark means.

It was just glossed over in the book.

Such a male lead, from beginning to end, was no good.

In the storyline updates,

Some parts had already turned grey and could not be modified. This proved that the events had already happened.

Some parts could still be modified, proving that the storyline had been updated, but had not yet occurred in reality.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but narrow her eyes.

If they insisted on courting death,

then bring it on.

Let’s see the power of her twenty character-alteration quota.
