Chapter 686: Chapter 695: Music Supervisor (1)

Because "Rock Youth" was a huge hit, the production team was considering shooting a sequel.

However, the producer only informed Director Li at first and asked him to discuss it with the others in the hall.

-------------------------------

After wrapping up filming for the day, the whole crew gathered for a late-night meal at a Korean barbecue restaurant not far from the film center. Half joking, half serious, Director Li said, "Zexiao, Qiqi, if there are plans for a sequel to ’Rock Youth,’ would you be interested in joining?"

Jiang Xuanqi’s eyes lit up. She was aware that the TV series was becoming a massive hit. Not only in Huaxia Country, but also in the neighboring regions, the Island Country, Goryeo, and throughout Southeast Asia, it was spreading rapidly like a rocket.

Although she was the most criticized among the three main actors, who cared? As long as people were watching and criticizing, it meant she had popularity!

She said with a beaming smile, "Of course. I would be more than happy to be guided by Director Li again!"

The others sitting around snickered. In the entire crew, she was the one who was criticized the most. Yu Zexiao was a newcomer and a big name, and Director Li generally took a guiding approach with him. Lu Jiayuan’s acting was exquisite, and he was usually the one giving advice to others. Only Jiang Xuanqi, despite having struggled in the industry for five years, had failed to develop any real acting skills; she had just been building her popularity.

When Director Li looked at Lu Jiayuan, he simply smiled faintly, "Well, that’s up to the talent agency."

Director Li was also aware that afterward, he would need to film a new season of "Eternal Heart." Compared to the second part of "Rock Youth," the American series "Eternal Heart" was obviously more important, and any normal person would choose to work on the better project.

He felt a twinge of regret. Although "Rock Youth" had attracted a large audience at the start thanks to Yu Zexiao’s personal charm, the subsequent strong addition of Lu Jiayuan, coupled with his exquisite acting and a face that, although slightly less impressive than Yu Zexiao’s, was still very attractive, had drawn in a significant fanbase.

If they couldn’t get Lu Jiayuan to film the second part, he wondered who could fill the role he played?

Director Li, laden with thoughts, then turned his gaze to Yu Zexiao.

Unexpectedly, Yu Zexiao didn’t even look at him, nor did he hear what he had just been discussing. Unlike the group huddled around a table eating, he and Jian Anning were at a table of their own.

Between the options of Korean barbecue and ordinary seafood barbecue, most people preferred the latter. However, that was because Yu Zexiao was a guy with an extreme obsession with cleanliness.

It was already a big concession for him to agree to join them for barbecue, let alone expect him to squeeze in at a roadside stall with a bunch of people eating skewers—it simply wasn’t logical!

Jian Anning, sitting beside him, took a piece of marinated pork belly and skillfully placed it on the grill to cook, the stove underneath igniting with a sizzling sound.

Knowing the likelihood of Yu Zexiao agreeing was very low and that even if he really wanted to shoot the second part, the remuneration would undoubtedly have to increase substantially from the first one, Director Li asked, "Zexiao, would you be interested in doing the second part of ’Rock Youth’?"

This time, Yu Zexiao did hear him and didn’t refuse outright, but simply said, "I have to record an album."
