Chapter 199: At His Peak
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Tang Yimo hurriedly went to Han Junlei to ask for permission to leave.
When she said “it’s the CEO’s request”, her tone was inexplicably arrogant.
Han Junlei hated this kind of leave of absence the most. Normally, he would not approve it, but when he heard that it was a request from the CEO, he could not refuse.
“Then you must come back in the afternoon for the shoot!”
Tang Yimo recalled what Zhou Xuefang had said, so she said shyly, “if I can make it in time, I’ll definitely come back.”
“?”
Forget it, Tang Yimo’s scene was not important. It would not affect anything even if they were to film tomorrow.
Su Ji came out of the changing room as soon as Tang Yimo left.
Si Jingchuan said, “boss, you look really good as an office lady! I heard that the outfit you shot in yesterday was especially wonderful. I’ll wait for the Sat.u.r.day broadcast to properly appreciate it.”
He had to admit that his boss’ acting skills had improved very quickly in the past few months.
She was such a talented actress!
Su Ji looked at the CEO’s suit that Si Jingchuan was wearing. “You’re not bad yourself.”
Si Jingchuan obviously felt that his boss’ praise was not sincere.
Please, when he changed into the suit and came out, the staff almost went crazy!
He turned his head to the side and looked at the person who was still excited.
“Holy s.h.i.t! Quickly, look!”
“Oh my G.o.d, why do I feel like Jingchuan is….”
“He’s so cool!”
Si Jingchuan usually wore casual clothes such as a T-shirt and jeans. Today, he had suddenly changed into a formal suit with a neat tie.
He was indeed very handsome, but in Su Ji’s heart, the bar was higher.
In comparison, he was just “not bad”.
Huang Huayu was very attentive. No one in the crew had noticed anything during the previous two days of filming, but he noticed it as soon as he came today.
He asked, “Su Ji, where did you get this bracelet? Can you take it off?”
Su Ji was embarra.s.sed. “I didn’t think of it before. I really can’t take it off.”
Han Junlei came over when he heard that. “What if we break it? Was it expensive? We will reimburse you.”
She didn’t wear it in the first few episodes, so they were worried that the audience would think that she was out of character if she suddenly wore a bracelet at the beginning of this episode.
Su Ji told the truth. “I think it’s more than 60 million.”
Everyone fell into dead silence.
Huang Huayu coughed. “Actually, it’s fine. After all, the Bai family used to be a rich family. This is also in line with the character’s background.”
Han Junlei agreed. “Maybe this bracelet can be used as a foreshadowing to the character’s past!”
The others all nodded.
In the first scene, Gu Shen entered Ms. Feng’s office and saw Bai Yueguang and Shen Qianqian.
This shot was mainly a close-up of Si Jingchuan’s eyes.
The first time.
Han Junlei: “Cut!”
“Jingchuan, the look in your eyes was on point when you saw Bai Yueguang, but when you looked at Shen Qianqian, there were no emotions.”
Well, he really didn’t feel anything for her.
“Sorry, director. Let’s go again.”
He was a famous actor. Even if he had no feelings, he must pretend like he did.
The second time.
Initially, Si Jingchuan was in character. However, Zhou Xuefang acted on her own accord. When he looked at her, she deliberately gave him an affectionate look, causing Si Jingchuan to be out of character.
Han Junlei said, “Cut! it still doesn’t work.”
Si Jingchuan was speechless. “Zhou Xuefang, can you not make any expressions when I look at you later? I’m easily distracted.”
There was a faint laughter around them.
Zhou Xifang’s face turned cold. “Okay.”
She was clearly trying to help him!
The third time.
After the performance, Han Junlei and Huang Huayu sat in front of the monitor screen and watched the replay.
“What do you think?” Han Junlei asked.
I think…it’s not bad,” Huang Huayu said.
The two of them nodded and announced that it’s okay.
But this time, it was Si Jingchuan’s turn to be dissatisfied.
He knew that this scene was connected to the exciting scenes in which the “boss” would be in. If it was just okay, her scenes would be affected
Besides, he didn’t want to have a mediocre performance in front of the boss.
He wasl a perfectionist.
Si Jingchuan requested, “director, why don’t you let me try again? Just the close-up shot of my eyes.”
Han Junlei admired his att.i.tude. That was how art should be.
“Okay, don’t worry. Take your time to calm down.” He waved at Zhou Xuefang in the distance. “Xuefang, could you…”
“I don’t need her.” Without waiting for Zhou Xuefang’s reply, Si Jingchuan stopped her. “Director, since the others don’t need to be on camera, I want Su Ji to help me.”
“Ah?” Han Junlei had no reason to refuse him. “That’s fine too. However, don’t mix up her role.”
Si Jingchuan replied, “don’t worry.”
Huang Huayu glanced at Zhou Xuefang.
He just heard that Director Han and Zhou Xuefang were relatives when he came here today.
Jingchuan’s request wasn’t very harmful, but it was extremely insulting.
Su Ji was quite loyal. She had just laid down on the recliner, but when she heard that her little brother needed her, she came immediately.
The expression on Zhou Xuefang’s face could only be described as “ugly”.
She had never hoped that CEO Pei would fall for Tang Yimo as much as she did at the moment, even if he was just messing with her!
Only then would Blue Whale stop supporting Su Ji!
“Action!”
Everyone held their breath as the camera focused on Si Jingchuan’s eyes.
Zhou Xuefang wanted to see what Su Ji would do.
However, she soon realized that Su Ji didn’t do anything at all. She just stood there.
She tilted her head and looked at Si Jingchuan.
However, in the camera, Si Jingchuan’s gaze was simply amazing!
It was as if he had returned to his peak when filming the blockbuster “First Love at 18”!
It was the perfect portrayal of Gu Shen’s love for the female lead, Shen Qianqian!
“Very good!” Han Junlei could not be more satisfied.
He decided to use this version!
Si Jingchuan nudged Su Ji’s shoulder and said, “did you see that, boss? This is my true strength.”
Su Ji nodded. “It was indeed not bad.”
She had learned something
He couldn’t do it with Zhou Xuefang, but she could do it with Su Ji so easily.
Zhou Xuefang felt insulted.
However, on second thought, the audience would not know that he was looking at Su Ji!
Seeing that everyone was talking about Si Jingchuan’s performance just now, Zhou Xuefang unwillingly took out her phone.
“Yimo, have you arrived?”
Coincidentally, Tang Yimo had just gotten out of the car and looked up at the towering Pei Corporation building.
She took a deep breath. “Yes, I’m going in now!”
