Ning Sheng did not take the comments of others to heart.
After the official filming, everyone was extremely quiet. Also, because it was the Movie King Gu’s crew, the people at the filming location were all staff, which was very important. Therefore, the director was only worried about the scene presented by the actors and did not think too much about it.
“Cut!”
“Cut!”
“Cut!”
The director called for a pause countless times.
“Luo Xiang, what’s wrong with you? I’m just asking you what’s going on? Your character is cold and has no desires. You can’t show any emotion in your eyes, but the Movie King Gu in front of you, who is also the male lead of this drama, Zhou Shenglu, is your enemy, your mortal enemy. When you saw him, you wanted to kill him.
But you can’t let him discover your intentions.”
The actress Luo Xiang lowered her head and didn’t say anything.
“You give me the feeling of a teen idol drama. We’re not filming a G.o.d who has a crush on the science cla.s.s in school, and you’re not that little invisible secret admirer. You’re a doctor who cares about the world and also someone who hates Zhou Shenglu to the extreme.”
The director was furious and didn’t know what to say.
That actor from back then was not bad, so why did he choose this actor now?
Luo Xiang could only act in teen idol dramas, so her talent was not brought out. It was not impossible for her to go to the big screen, but she could not act in the role of Lin Ai in this script.
Every emotional scene was very hard.
He was a director who was “delicate” and “considerate”. He could film life vividly and present the details of feelings to the audience. But the actors were not good enough.
He couldn’t even teach her step by step!
The later stages were all scenes for the male and female leads!
If this went on, the final ending would not be the love between Lin Ai and Zhou Shenglu, but the love between Lin Ai and Zhou Shenglu. There was nothing but love in Lin Ai’s eyes. His eyes were empty.
Even the love she showed was admiration.
Which stupid female lead would show her love so obviously when she was bankrupt by the male lead and treated him as her mortal enemy? The scriptwriter teacher didn’t write a silly and sweet female lead!
“Director, take a break.” The a.s.sistant director next to him said.
“Let’s take a ten-minute break,” the director said irritably.
“It’s a pity that such a good actor like Movie King Gu was dragged over to accompany this actress. He clearly doesn’t have the ability.” The director shook his head. “We’re aiming to win an award for this movie, but how can the female lead win an award if she acts like this? Is the female lead a silly and sweet Mary Sue character?”
The director lost his temper, and the audience did not dare to breathe loudly.
“Take a break,” Gu Hanwei said to the actress.
Initially, he didn’t have much of an impression of Luo Xiang. When they were talking about this script, they were talking about Tang Tang. He felt that it would be fine if she was the female lead.
After all, they had filmed a variety show together before. He was a good seedling.
He did not expect things to turn out like this.
Moreover, Luo Xiang’s acting skills were indeed not up to standard.
There were too many situations in the entertainment industry where resources were stolen. If one really wanted to get sick of it, it would be too much. It was just that the original capable actress had become a vase, so she was more or less a little unhappy.
“Movie King Gu, Ning Sheng is here.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Youshen looked over and saw Ning Sheng and Lu Cheng sitting in the corner, looking over nonchalantly. He smiled and walked over.
Movie King Gu’s every move affected the entire production team.
The director saw it too.
He had felt the anger of the Movie King just now, so why did he suddenly
laugh?
Then, he looked in the direction of Movie King Gu’s gaze.
A girl wearing a cap and a tall and handsome man beside her? Who was this? Could it be that an actor from the entertainment industry had come to visit? “Shengsheng, why are you here?” Movie King Gu sat beside her.
Ning Sheng pressed the brim of his hat. “I came to watch you film and found it amazing.”
He felt that many people were looking at him.
“Do you think it’s fun?” Gu Youshen smiled gently.
The crew was speechless.
Why was Movie King Gu smiling?
Even Luo Xiang, who was crying just now, didn’t understand.
Everyone knew that Movie King Gu was a gentle and polite person who knew when to advance or retreat. She would never give others a chance, and there was always a sense of alienation between them that could not be approached, but this woman…Who was it?
Girlfriend? Ambitious partner?
Luo Xiang gripped her dress tightly, her mood worsening.
“Yes, but the actress you’re partnering with is just so-so.” Ning Sheng was honest.
Gu Youshen nodded in agreement. “However, I’m still working hard to improve.” This was the greatest encouragement he could give.
“I heard from the staff that it was Tang Tang? Then, it was changed to this actor?” Ning Sheng had met Tang Tang before she left A Leisurely Life. She was a well-behaved and sensible actress who did not play tricks.
It was said that she was exiled because she rejected the unspoken rules. She was a particularly outstanding actress, and her acting skills were not bad. She had come from the stage. However, he didn’t have any good resources. Even if he had a good script, he couldn’t beat the capital.
This time, it was the same role that was s.n.a.t.c.hed away.
“Yes, things in the entertainment industry are true and false. Tang Tang s acting skills are really good, and she’s also very suitable for this female lead. Luo Xiang feels that she’s suitable for a fresh artistic style. If her acting skills were to be used to play the role of Lin Ai, it would probably be ruined in the end. After all, there’s not much improvement.”
She didn’t know how the previous filming went.
Basically, the later part of the plot was here.
The director couldn’t be changed either. He couldn’t afford to offend the capital.
-Why didn’t uncle stop it? Although it’s not a big deal to operate the capital, this is your drama. If you’re dragged down by a female lead with no acting skills, it won’t be good for your reputation, right?” Ning Sheng said.
She was still worried about Movie King Gu because of what the staff had said just now.
After all, he had worked hard for so many years to become a top actress. He could not be dragged down by an actress who had invested in him. The director was also furious.
“I didn’t know before. When I found out, half of the filming was already done. Moreover, the female lead’s acting was okay at the beginning, but it became worse and worse in the later stages.” Movie King Gu shook his head. “It’s okay. Everyone starts slowly from the beginning. If she studies hard, there will be different sparks.”
Ning Sheng nodded.
Since Mr. Gu had said so, she had nothing to worry about.
After that, the director called Movie King Gu over to discuss the plot.
Before he left, he said, “If you’re bored, ask your a.s.sistant to take you out to play. Today’s shoot may take a whole day.” Then, she told him many of the scenic spots here and even arranged for an a.s.sistant. She was very considerate.
Ning Sheng nodded. It was time to leave.
“Wait a moment.”
Ning Sheng stopped in her tracks. “What’s the matter?
“Can we have a chat?”
It was the voice of the female lead, Luo Xiang..
