Chapter 2654: I Just Don’t Agree

“Yet because of her conflicted feelings during this period, she would not dare to put on heavy eyeshadow. Mascara would have to be added too. Coral color would be used for the blush to give off a healthy glow. The lipstick color would be changed from mauve to strawberry-red, but at the center of her lips, I will apply another layer of cla.s.sic red lipstick on top.
“Her internal conflict and temptations all came about after she got to know Ying Ying. As the first person who brought her into the adult world, she could only learn how to do her makeup from Ying Ying. She did not have the courage to be as loud and high-profile as Ying Ying, and yet she could not stop having bold thoughts in her mind. So her lip color cannot be as bold and eye-catching as Ying Ying’s. But because of her desires deep down, she would have secretly layered on another deeper shade of red to express the reluctance she felt deep down,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya explained as she completed the makeup look.
As she applied it on the model and the model was a non-living object that did not have expressions, the effect would inevitably be a little less obvious.
But even then, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya still managed to portray the distinct features of the character during this period.
When the screenwriter saw it, he felt as if Yan Jiayin was standing right before him.
As if she had come to life.
She had only applied makeup on the model, yet it already gave him this feeling.
It was very difficult to imagine how it would feel like if s.h.i.+ Xiaoya was the one doing that makeup on a real actress.
The screenwriter said in a hushed voice to Wu Mosen, “I suddenly have a feeling that no matter who we find to play this character, even if we just casually chose someone, s.h.i.+ Xiaoya would be able to portray her as the Yan Jiayin we have in our minds.”
This would make it much more convenient for them to choose actors and actresses for the roles.
Things like image and aura would usually be one of the most important qualities at the forefront of their considerations.
But now, they just needed to prioritize the consideration for whether the actor’s acting skills could make the cut.
As for image and aura, it seemed as if s.h.i.+ Xiaoya could make up for those.
Wu Mosen nodded. This definitely saved them a lot of trouble.
Lian Qingyin did not expect that this would make Wu Mosen and the screenwriter admire s.h.i.+ Xiaoya even more.
She stared at the drawings on the table. s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s heart skipped a bit.
Wu Mosen and the screenwriter had already seen those drawings.
But those were still the products of her hard work and effort after days of staying up overnight. If Lian Qingyin tore them apart, how could she have no emotions at all?
Suddenly, Wu Mosen seized the chance when Lian Qingyin was not paying attention and just s.n.a.t.c.hed all the drawings.
Wu Mosen was sitting in the center. To prevent Lian Qingyin from s.n.a.t.c.hing them again, he just pa.s.sed the drawings to the screenwriter.
In this way, Wu Mosen would be another barrier in front of Lian Qingyin, so even if she wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h them again, Wu Mosen could still stop her in time.
Lian Qingyin realized what was going on and understood Wu Mosen and the screenwriter’s intentions.
The two of them were guarding against her.
They thought that she was deliberately making things difficult for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, right?
Indeed. She was deliberately making things difficult for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
“Looks like Director Wu and Teacher Hu are both keen on choosing s.h.i.+ Xiaoya, huh?” Lian Qingyin asked with a smirk.
The screenwriter smiled and said, “I do think that s.h.i.+ Xiaoya is quite good. I will discuss with Director Wu in a moment, but when selecting the makeup artists, I do want to save a spot for s.h.i.+ Xiaoya. And after the series of tests just now, be it s.h.i.+ Xiaoya’s pre-interview preparations or her spontaneous designs on the spot, they were all outstanding. She can accurately grasp the distinct features of the character during a particular period. This is one thing that I value a lot.”
Wu Mosen also nodded and said, “With appropriate makeup to complement the roles, the actors can find it a little easier to get into character better.”
“But I just don’t agree to letting s.h.i.+ Xiaoya come on board,” Lian Qingyin said.
“You won’t agree, even though she performed well?” The screenwriter tightly knitted his brows.
