Recently, Su Ye had been filming in Beijing.
This was a film invested in by Yang Yang's company. The director, screenwriter, and other members of the main creative team were all Su Ye's friends in the industry, and they had considered her the only suitable choice for the female lead from the very beginning. Filming had originally been scheduled to begin in September and last two months, in time for the Spring Festival release window, but it had been forced to delay because Yang Yang was injured.
In the film, Su Ye played a sharp-tongued girl who had fallen into despair after her boyfriend cheated on her with her best friend. She had been following the story since it was still a novel and had also participated in writing the screenplay. She felt it was a role with tremendous room for her to perform.
It could be said that this role would completely overturn the public's impression of her. It was very challenging.
After returning from Spain, Su Ye had joined the production crew and busied herself with filming every day. Since the filming location was in Beijing, she had been staying at home the whole time.
Because the villa compound was too empty with Yang Yang away and only her there, it had felt terribly lonely. So she moved back to the neighborhood where her parents lived, staying in Yang Yang's apartment there so she would not disturb her parents.
The previous evening, she had arranged with her father, Su Wenhong, to watch the FIFA Club World Cup final together, so she had dinner at her parents' place. In passing, she mentioned that she had not been feeling well lately, as if she had caught a cold, and that she tired easily. She had no idea what was wrong.
