648 Good-looking Summer Workers
Song Ci did not expect the netizens to pay so much attention to the two children and be so interested in them.
It was understandable for the directors to notice Song Yujin and Lu Suo. After all, Director Chen had acknowledged their acting skills, and coupled with their outstanding looks, they were an advantage on screen. It was inevitable that the directors who needed child actors would notice them.
However, it was unexpected that the netizens liked them so much too. It seemed that regardless of age, one’s appearance was the best tool to attract fans.
Naturally, Director Chen noticed this situation as well. He called Song Ci and asked if she still wanted them to remain anonymous. After all, some people had already discovered the behind-the-scenes footage and knew Song Yujin was a boy pretending to be a girl. Their love for him grew, feeling that he was too cute.
Song Ci replied, “They’re still in school. If we don’t say their names, people could say they mistook them for someone else if they see them in the future. If we say their names now, it’ll be a done deal. We should leave it.”
Director Chen had no choice but to post some stills of the two children the next day, explaining that the two children were not child stars. They happened to come over to play during summer break and were scouted for these two roles. As they were still in school, they would not reveal their names.
The netizens did not expect such an answer. They said in shock: [So we won’t see them on screen anymore?]
[I can’t believe it. She’s not a child star but just here to play. How can her acting be so good? Xiaomi and Xiaoxue’s personified their grown-up characters. Their acting skills were almost on par with Song Ci’s, and you call this casually coming over to play? Director, aren’t you being a little too casual with those who just came over to play?]
[Xiaomi and Xiaoxue are really smart. They seemed to be at ease acting with the best actor. Every time they acted out their helplessness, disdain, or pride, they were on point. I cried from their acting. Are they really just amateurs?]
The netizens were in disbelief and shock. They took the pictures and comments posted by the director to the forum and wailed. It can not be true!
Many netizens who had yet to watch the movie clicked on it out of curiosity and were instantly stunned by Song Yujin and Lu Suo’s stills.
[Are these the stills from ‘Seeking Danger’? Why weren’t these released for publicity?]
[It’s probably to protect the children. The production crew doesn’t even want to say their names.]
[The little kid with a flower crown is so beautiful. I’m going to buy a ticket now. I want to see this scene on the big screen.]
[May I ask if these two children appear often? I kind of want to watch the two of them, but I’m afraid they won’t have many scenes.]
[There aren’t many scenes, but it’s still worth watching! The scene between Xiaomi, Xiaoxue, and the best actor is especially interesting. Little Hope’s scene was also very beautiful. I almost wanted to sneak Little Hope out of the screen.]
[Same…]
It was also because of their high popularity that Song Yujin and Lu Suo were trending topics. They were good-looking summer workers, after all.
Just like that, not only did Song Yujin and Lu Suo inexplicably make it onto the trending list, but they also attracted a wave of passersby fans. It helped promote the movie again, increasing the number of unexpected viewers.
Song Ci did not know whether to laugh or cry. Fortunately, she did not let Director Chen reveal their names. Otherwise, what would happen when they returned to school after winter break?
Director Chen sighed from the bottom of his heart. “The eyes of the masses are sharp. I told you before that the two kids are very suitable for the entertainment industry. Sigh. I pray they take over your place once they grow up.”
Song Ci did not hear Director Chen’s sigh as she was busy packing her luggage, preparing to leave for the next roadshow.
‘Seeking Danger’ had a very good reputation and was a box office hit, so the production team wanted to work harder to let ‘Seeking Danger’ win this year’s Spring Festival. Song Ci had worked even harder. After all, this was her first work. So she naturally hoped for the best results!
With Song Ci off to promote the movie, the two babies were once again handed over to Lu Gan.
Song Yujin and Lu Suo obediently waved to their mother and watched as she got into the car. They said reluctantly, “Goodbye, Mommy.”
Song Ci smiled and waved back at them. “Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon.” After that, she looked at Lu Gan and winked at him.
Lu Gan smiled, raised his hand, and blew her a kiss. Song Ci instantly closed the window and leaned back in her chair, her ears a little red.
Lu Gan chuckled and walked back with the two children in his arms. He, Song Yujin, and Lu Suo went up to the second floor. Looking down at the kids, he said, “Daddy has to do some work now. If there’s anything, look for me in the study. Understand?”
