Chapter 50 – I Want to Film (Part Three)

Returning home, Ye Yunxi saw Ye Junpo slumped dejectedly on the sofa.

Clearly, his attempts to borrow money hadn’t gone well today.

However, she had already sent Zhuang Ge away, so he wouldn’t be appearing this month.

“Dad, this is a script my friend wrote and wanted me to review. I don’t know how to judge scripts, could you take a look for me?”

Ye Yunxi handed her script over. Ye Junpo hesitated for a moment, thinking about how he couldn’t make films anymore, but upon seeing the script, he couldn’t help reaching for it.

Once he started reading, he couldn’t tear his eyes away.

An espionage theme – so thrilling!

“Absolutely brilliant!”

Ye Junpo instinctively slapped his thigh, wincing at the pain. When he looked up, he realized it was already past ten o’clock.

“Is it well-written?”

Ye Yunxi looked up from the dining table where she was doing her homework.

She could skip classes, but homework had to be done.

“This is absolutely fantastic!!”

Ye Junpo clutched the script, almost wanting to spin around twice before sitting down.

“This is completely professional level, my goodness! Just reading the script gets my blood pumping. If this gets filmed, if this gets filmed!!”

It would definitely be a blockbuster!!

[Ding! Prestige+10!] 100

“Yunxi, your friend is amazing. Is this script for sale? Dad will buy it! I want to make this movie!”

Ye Yunxi curled her lips, resting her hands behind her head: “He said he’s worried it’s not good enough, and that it’s fine even without payment.”

“No way! This is the fruit of labor. Every single word here wasn’t just typed out with effort – it required racking brains to write. We should respect others’ hard work. Tell him that when the movie releases, I’ll give him 1% of the profits!”

1% was already quite substantial. After all, even actors rarely managed to get 1% of profits.

“But the actors…”

Ye Junpo hesitated slightly.

The espionage film had two male leads, while the female lead had relatively few scenes. Hiring actors would be very expensive.

“Dad, what if I play the spy?”

Ye Yunxi, now in male attire, leaned against the doorframe with a roguish smile.

Her medium-length bangs covered the upward tilt of her eyes, a small rabbit-tail-like ponytail sticking up at the back of her head. The loose male clothing accentuated her dashing, unrestrained appearance, while the exaggerated necklace accessories and Manjusaka Holy Cross Tattoo made the youth look dangerously captivating.

If not for that “Dad,” Ye Junpo would never have guessed this was his daughter!

He would have thought this was some family’s bad boy coming to seduce his precious little princess!

But this alluring bad boy was actually Ye Yunxi in disguise!

“You… you’ll act?!”

Ye Junpo circled Ye Yunxi twice, growing more excited and delighted the more he looked.

“Alright, we can give it a try!”

She had the exact feeling of Xing Ye from the script – roguish, shrewd, navigating between dark forces, yet so handsome that just one glance could make young girls weak in the knees!

“But what about the other male lead?”

Ye Junpo began to hesitate again.

Of the two male protagonists, one was the spy – wicked and unrestrained – while the other was an extremely upright police officer, tough and spirited, sharp as a blade. Looking across the entertainment industry, it seemed no one could really fit this role. Even those who might be suitable were too old to play such a young character.

“I’ve already found someone for this role, Dad. I’ll bring him next time. Oh, and my male identity is called Ye Yunji.”

Ye Junpo: ……..

Then what about your brother? It’s not like we can stuff him back into the womb, okay?But could anyone truly portray such a righteous and handsome character?

He was beginning to grow curious about what kind of person his daughter would bring to him.
