Firstly, Bo Yan said that Yu Fenfei wanted to have a meal with her. Yu Fenfei was originally a renowned director and also Bo Yan's mentor. He had been working on a costume drama for the past few years, and now he planned to return to his specialty: the West small-town genre.
Previously, Xia Siyu had been filming campus urban romance films and had almost no contact with directors like Yu Fenfei. In the three years before marrying Bo Yan, their work was separate, and there was no resource exchange between them. It was only after "Spring Light" that she had some interaction with Yu Fenfei's side.
In the past, if there were relatives bringing someone who wanted to play a minor role in a film, he wouldn't be too opposed. But Xia Siyu was different; she was already a top star with fame. Inviting her could only mean a lead role. However, Xia Siyu's past movie acting had nothing worth praising, which made him hesitant to invite her.
