Filming a movie is not like filming a TV series; the plot must be extended significantly.

The plot of the movie is very tight, and the shooting progress is very fast. Bella Acker plays the third female lead in "Life and Death," who is the girlfriend of an undercover police officer.

Although she’s the third female lead, in fact, all her scenes combined don’t add up to more than fifty shots, and many scenes will be cut and not broadcast later.

However, because she has to coordinate with other actors’ schedules and Director Simons has high demands on the actors’ performances, even though "Life and Death" is expected to be shot in over two months, she has to stay with the crew for at least a month.

After more than half a month of shooting, it was finally time for the press conference.

Bella Acker rushed from the hospital to the hotel where the press conference was held early in the morning, and as soon as she arrived, she saw Archer Quinn stepping out of the car.

Although they are in the same crew, Bella Acker’s third female role only has two scenes with Archer Quinn’s male lead. Furthermore, Archer Quinn had been shuttling between the crews of "Brocade River and Mountain" and "Life and Death" during this time. His work in "Brocade River and Mountain" finally wrapped up yesterday, allowing him to focus more on filming this movie.

Archer Quinn also saw Bella Acker and stood smiling at the entrance of the hotel waiting for her.

"Senior Quinn, congratulations on wrapping up your scenes in ’Brocade River and Mountain.’" Bella, accompanied by Judy Zimmerman, walked up and said with a smile.

"Thank you." Archer Quinn looked her up and down, slightly frowned, and walked alongside her into the hotel, saying, "It’s only been a week since I last saw you, and you’ve lost so much weight?"

"Really?" Bella had been too busy running between the film set and the hospital to pay attention to her weight.

"Yes," Archer Quinn nodded affirmatively, "you’ve lost the fat on your face."

"Well, that’s good for losing weight so I don’t have to deliberately control my diet," Bella joked, her eyelids slightly lowered to hide the emotion in her eyes.

As if she was deliberately controlling her diet, she was so busy every day that she often had no appetite to eat.

Archer Quinn knew she was keeping a lot to herself, so not wanting to sadden her by discussing it more, he changed the topic, "Did Sandra Woods contact you after returning to Creston?"

"We talked on the phone, but she got another role so she flew out the day after returning to Creston. We haven’t had a chance to meet yet," Bella added with a small smile, "Shannon’s new drama is an adaptation of a popular online novel and she’s cast as the second female lead. Her acting is great, and once this drama airs, she’ll surely gain a lot of popularity."

Bella was genuinely happy for her friend’s growing success.

Archer Quinn, of course, knew about this since it was through his recommendation that Sandra got the second female lead role.

As they talked, they reached outside the venue for the movie press conference. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

There were many reporters and fans outside the venue, and as soon as Archer Quinn appeared, they gathered around him.

Archer Quinn instinctively raised his arm to half-wrap around Bella’s shoulder, shielding her by his side, as he waved to greet the fans.

"Joan, are you collaborating with Bella again in ’Life and Death’?" A fan with sharp eyes noticed Bella being protected by Archer Quinn and shouted.

"Yes," Archer Quinn replied with a smile, "Director Simons greatly appreciates Bella’s acting, so we’re colleagues again."

"Joan, our Bella’s a bit clumsy, please take good care of her on set," another fan shouted.

Bella was taken aback and looked over, only to realize that she actually had fans at the scene.
