Chapter 698: The Black and Red Female Star (8)

The cold and capable slim-fitting suit suppressed Qi Shichu's charming aura. Combined with her makeup today and the changes in her eyes and aura, Qi Shichu immediately turned into a capable and elite female forensic doctor, with heroic spirit yet feminine charm, which was eye-catching.

The moment the director saw her change in demeanor, his eyes lit up. He suddenly discovered that Qi Shichu had this side of him, so he began to look forward to the role of Shen Anan that she was about to play.

Because it was a live audition, he had to perform without any physical objects, but this did not pose a problem for Qi Shichu.

Qi Shichu's right hand was slightly clenched, as if she was carrying a bag and going home from work. She walked hurriedly for a while, then glanced forward inadvertently, and her eyes immediately lit up. It was obvious that she saw the male protagonist she had a crush on, but her happiness was only for a while, and her softened expression suddenly changed again. It turned out that she saw a beautiful girl next to the male protagonist, who was holding his arm and was very intimate with him.

It was obvious that they were boyfriend and girlfriend. When Shen Anan realized this, her face suddenly lost color and turned pale. She followed the male protagonist and his girlfriend in front of her for a while, with sadness, pain and reluctance in her eyes...

She was walking in a daze, and suddenly her whole body flew to one side and fell to the ground in an instant. It was obvious that she was absent-minded and was hit by a car on the road.

"Director, I'm done." Qi Shichu stood up from the ground, dusted himself off, and said to the director who was stunned in front of him.

The director finally reacted, and immediately slapped the table and said, "That's right! You are Shen Anan!"

Qi Shichu suddenly smiled brightly, and the cold and beautiful female forensic doctor immediately disappeared, turning into a bright and generous beauty.

"Thank you, director!" Qi Shichu said happily, but other people present had different opinions.

A middle-aged man with a big belly said to the director, "Director Zhou, although Qi Shichu's acting is good, she used to play the villainous female supporting role of a slut. I'm afraid the audience will be distracted when watching her."

"Were you distracted when you were watching her just now? If I didn't tell you that she was Qi Shichu, would you have recognized that the female forensic doctor she just played was her?" Director Zhou asked unhappily.

"...but she's not famous enough. The female forensic doctor Shen Anan is the second female lead, and her role is only slightly less than the leading actress. We should invite a famous female star to play the role, preferably one with a similar status to the leading actress. But Qi Shichu is not that famous enough, not to mention that she has a very bad reputation. It's not safe to invite her..." The producer continued to persuade him, but he actually just took money from a young actress and guaranteed that she would play Shen Anan. He didn't expect that Qi Shichu would intervene and take the role away from him. How could he be happy about this?

The director said impatiently, "This is a criminal investigation drama. I don't expect it to be popular. I just hope everyone can act well. My crew can't afford those popular female stars with no acting skills! Shen Anan belongs to Qi Shichu, don't say anything more."

At this time, another woman in her thirties wearing glasses also spoke up and said, "Director Zhou is right. Qi Shichu is very suitable to play Shen Anan. I agree to let her play the role."

The minority obeys the majority, so the second female role of Shen Anan in the criminal investigation drama "The Law is Wide" was chosen by Qi Shichu. When Sister Wang came to sign the contract, she was so happy that she hugged Qi Shichu tightly and said, "I didn't expect you to actually get this role! Come on, your performance will be as good as this one. Whether you can get rid of the image of a coquettish slut, big-breasted and brainless woman depends on this role!"

Qi Shichu patted her on the back and said confidently, "Don't worry, I won't be confined by that type of role again."

Half a month later, the crew of "The Law Is Strong" was formed. As the second female lead with second most screen time after the female lead, Qi Shichu naturally had to appear from the start of filming.

The male lead in "The Law Is Strong" is played by the talented actor Zhu Xun, who is in his thirties, handsome, with superb acting skills and few scandals. The female lead is played by the first-line actress Chen Shuya, who also has good acting skills, but has many scandals. It is said that every time she goes to a crew, she will have some scandals with the male lead or the second male lead. However, without any solid evidence, Chen Shuya claimed that it was all hearsay.

After Qi Shichu joined the crew, he was not familiar with Zhu Xun and Chen Shuya, but he had a lot of rival scenes with them, so the scenes he filmed were basically with them.

At first, the other people in the crew thought that among the three of them, Qi Shichu would be the one who would make the most NGs, but surprisingly, they guessed wrong. The person who was often called out by the director was not Qi Shichu, but Chen Shuya.

"Chen Shuya! What's wrong with you? You are playing a policewoman. You should be full of righteousness and vigor. Even if you like the male lead, you should only blush and be shy instead of looking at him in a flirtatious manner like an oiran. You are not serious at all..." Director Zhou shouted at Chen Shuya angrily.

As soon as Director Zhou finished speaking, low laughter was heard. These laughters were like a slap in Chen Shuya's face, making her face suddenly hot and painful. She was extremely embarrassed, as if everyone was laughing at her!

"Do it again! Chen Shuya, pay attention to your eye acting!" Director Zhou shouted. This scene was where the heroine and the hero were alone together, and had nothing to do with Qi Shichu, so she just watched them acting from the side.

Chen Shuya's acting skills are intermittent. When she is in good condition, she acts well, but when she is in bad condition, she has to act several times to get it right. In this scene, she is in bad condition.

"No! Do it again!" Director Zhou was still not satisfied and shouted with a frown on his face. Chen Shuya's expression suddenly became uglier, but she had no choice but to continue, because Director Zhou was the biggest boss here, and even if she was a big star, there was nothing she could do.

Chen Shuya didn't know what happened. Her condition got worse and worse as she acted. In the end, Director Zhou got so angry that he scolded her, stopped filming this part, and asked her to adjust her condition first.

Qi Shichu was then pulled up to continue filming with the male lead. She and Zhu Xun quickly got it right in one take, and then another. Director Zhou immediately changed from a fire dragon to a little white rabbit. He smiled and praised Qi Shichu and Zhu Xun repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad, that's how it should be!"

If the actors shoot smoothly and quickly, other staff members will be happy too. After all, who wants to do useless work over and over again? Of course, it is best to get it right in one take.

As a result, Qi Shichu's image suddenly became much better than Chen Shuya's.

Chen Shuya watched Qi Shichu and Zhu Youyu's extremely smooth performance and almost gritted her teeth. How could an unknown 18th-tier actor perform better than her?

She was very angry and felt that Director Zhou was deliberately picking on her and making her perform the role so many times.
