Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Chapter 233: Regaining Confidence



Guo Nan’s words overwhelmed Ye Ziliang. He knew that he shouldn’t get influenced by other people’s words, but when compared to Guo Nan and the other two competitors, he really couldn’t find his confidence back.

He sent a message in the group chat and told everyone that they would be continuing to rest on the second day.

“Didn’t you say we need to rush more to keep up with the schedule?” — Sun Weiwei

“To be honest, we don’t need the break. It’s not necessary to go by the two-days-of-rest-per-week protocol.” — Tao Zhiyao

Seeing everyone’s replies, Ye Ziliang felt even more upset. He wasn’t in the mood, and it was impossible for him to continue filming.

Sometimes, men had weaker minds than women.

Yu Zhan noticed that something was wrong with Ye Ziliang. He called him and asked what was wrong.

Ye Ziliang completely trusted Yu Zhan. Hearing his spring breeze-like voice that blew away all the rain, Ye Ziliang could no longer hold back his feeling of being wronged anymore, and he revealed everything he was thinking of.

Yu Zhan said, “Do you still remember the name of the first movie your brother filmed?”

“Of course. It’s called ‘Outside the Window’.”

Ye Zian directed his first movie, “Outside the Window”, when he was in Capital Film University and was getting his master’s degree in the directing major. He only had 300k as his fund to film “Outside the Window”, but they profited more than ten million. At that time, Ye Ziliang was still in high school.

He didn’t understand why Yu Zhan suddenly mentioned his brother’s movie.

“At that time, Ye Zian met much bigger obstacles than you are encountering right now.”

Ye Ziliang was stunned for a moment before he recalled that when Ye Zian planned to film “Outside the Window” in that year, nobody in the entertainment circle thought it was a good idea. Nobody was willing to invest in a movie that seemed as if it wouldn’t earn any money.

Ye Zian met obstacles everywhere. Even when his mentor read the script of “Outside the Window”, his mentor had on a disapproving attitude and wasn’t willing to invest in it. His mentor lent him 200k, and Ye Zian got the rest of the 100k from his close friends and family members.

When “Outside the Window” got released, cinemas didn’t frequently put it on. It was already quite good if it got put on once every two days. When the movie was first put on, there were only five audiences. In the end, every time it was put on, all the seats were full and there were tides and tides of good comments. Everyone was quite surprised.

In the end, when cinemas stopped showing the movie, it earned exactly over 10 million. It earned 30 times the original 300k fund, creating a miracle in the history of movie-making.

Yu Zhan only did his research on Ye Zian as a director when Liu Man decided to participate in Ye Zian’s movie and complained to him about ye Zian. Yu Zhan asked He Lushen, he searched on Baidu, he read through the news, and he even watched every single one of Ye Zian’s movies.

He really liked Ye Zian’s movies and enjoyed them the more he watched them.

He thought Ye Zian was a rare director in the entertainment circle with no background, fighting all by himself with his talents. Yu Zhan was quite impressed by him.

“Later on, the money I used for school came from the money my brother earned from ‘Outside the Window’,” Ye Ziliang’s voice was very low. Ever since their parents got divorced and recreated their own families, the two brothers only depended on each other in life. Ye Zian was like a brother and a father to him. When Ye Ziliang remembered all the pain his brother went through to support him, his reluctance to lose came back again.

“I will definitely not give up. So what if Guo Nan and the others mock me? I will persist in my thoughts. I will film Vet’s Cuties!”

Yu Zhan laughed, “Mhm. You two are blood-related brothers, so you share his genes and talents. If your brother’s first movie was able to succeed, then your first documentary can also succeed!”

Yu Zhan’s encouragement increased Ye Ziliang’s confidence by a lot. His heart completely lit up again, and he sent another message in the group chat.

“Since none of you want to rest, then we won’t be resting today either. Meeting at Ah Zhan’s pet clinic at two o’clock today in the afternoon. We will continue our filming!”

Everyone: “…”

The second day was a Tuesday, and it was also the rest day for the pet clinic. Because they were filming the documentary, Yu Zhan was temporarily pausing his English lessons with Liu Man.

Ye Ziliang told Liu Man to bring Daylight and Moonlight over, too, so all the pets could show up.

Liu Man didn’t understand what “all the pets could show up” meant, but she still brought along her two cats and got onto Yu Zhan’s car. He was here to pick her up, and Paul was also in the car.

On their way, the two cats and the dog had quite a lot of fun in the car. It was literally a chaos.

Yu Zhan felt helpless, “Tomorrow, I will have to wash the car. There are cat furs all over the place here!” What was more funny was, the black T-shirt Yu Zhan had just now changed into had already turned into a shade of gray when they reached their destination.

Ye Ziliang was already there. He had a Hiromi on one hand and a pet box on the other, he stared blankly beside the hospital door.

Yu Zhan parked his car next to Ye Ziliang, got out of the car and greeted Ye Ziliang, then opened the doors and let Ye Ziliang and two pets go in first. Liu Man also took the two cats in, and Yu Zhan went to take Paul again. After all this, Yu Zhan had to drive the car to the parking lot. He was way busier than anyone else.

Daylight and Moonlight appeared curious to Melon, who looked completely different from them. The two of them gradually approached it in a two-to-one manner, and Melon was scared to death, its tail was raised high, and its golden and blue eyes were wide open, very alert.

On the other side, the little hiromi was also confronting the big Alaskan. It was not afraid of Paul at all. Its small eyes were fierce and eager to try, as if it was going to challenge Paul at any time.

Liu Man saw Ye Ziliang’s dog for the first time. She said, “Squash is small, but very courageous.”

“Haha, that’s because Paul is way too calm, normally, Squash was the one bullied by Melon at home.

After Yu Zhan parked, Yao Zhiyao’s car also arrived.

Tao Zhiyao and Sun Weiwei got off the car first, then it was Miao Xiaomei and Jiang Chengfeng.

Seeing Miao Xiaomei, Liu Man thought, do they still need makeup today?

Tao Zhiyao saw Melon and immediately said, “Oh my god, what a bootiful Persian kitty! Let me hug you~”

TL Note: Bootiful is not a typo I swear it’s what the author meant.

Melon, who was guarding against the Daylight and Moonlight, was caught off guard by Tao Zhiyao. It didn’t even have the chance to meow before being taken by Tao Zhiyao. What’s more terrifying is that Tao Zhiyao said, “Its hair is so beautiful, it’s snowy and white. The color of the different pupils are also beautiful, so let me have a kiss!”

A kiss on the left side, then on the right, then on the forehead~

Tao Zhiyao still wanted to kiss but Sun Weiwei stopped her, “Stop kissing, you’re going to make the cat depressed.”

She lowered her head to see Melon’s confused eyes.

“Hahahaha, it’s so cute.”

Ye Ziliang had to let Tao Zhiyao “torture” his cat, there was no other solution. It’s not his fault that she was the photographer, he thought, I’ll reward Melon with two fish sticks when we get home to compensate for his sufferings.

Work started after they had their fun.

Ye Ziliang now was filming the end of the film, for the beginning and end to have cohesion, Paul was the main character again, introducing his 4 friends.

Three cats and one small dog lined up together, looking back and forth, confused. It was super adorable!
