But for Feng Meng, a newcomer, it is not clear whether he should be happy or worried.
On her first day at work, she had already offended two seniors. No one knew whether these two would make things difficult for her in the future.
But now that things have come to this, she can only bite the bullet and do it herself.
"But..." The makeup artist wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the director: "Can't you hear me?"
Then he waved to Feng Meng and said, "Come here and put makeup on the actors and do their styling."
The makeup artist glared at the stylist angrily: Little bitch, it's all because of you!
The stylist glared at him, not wanting to be outdone: This isn't just my fault, it's you who's trying to make things difficult for me!
The director brought Feng Meng to the lounge to look for today's leading actor and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting."
"fine."
The director saw that the leading actor was unhappy, but there was nothing he could do about it. He then briefly introduced Feng Meng to the leading actor, and then Feng Meng began her work for the day.
Because the background of this play takes place in the winter of the Republic of China, the protagonist is just a rich young master whose family has fallen into poverty and become a little beggar. This character seems to be easy to create, but in fact it is not the case.
Feng Meng first applied a layer of foundation that was darker than the actor's skin color, and then applied a light blush on his face. Next was the exposed skin on the body, which also needed to be made up separately.
She looked as if she had been frozen in the dead of winter and had frostbite on her body. Then she found a dark grey, ragged cotton-padded jacket and trousers with holes in them, and put on a pair of cracked thick-soled leather shoes. After everything was ready, Feng Meng walked out of the dressing room with the leading actor.
The director looked at the actor who had just changed his costume and was stunned for a long time. After a long while, he gave Feng Meng a thumbs up and said, "Great, great, that's how I feel. Feng Mengzhi, I knew you could do it."
Feng Meng smiled a little embarrassedly: "Thank you for your appreciation, Director. I also want to thank the seniors for the inspiration given to me by the discussion just now."
After seeing the lead actor's costume, the stylist and makeup artist couldn't find any faults.
I really didn't expect that this girl has this ability. When I first met her, she was just a novice who didn't even know how to put on makeup. It's only been more than a month since I last saw her, but she can actually create such an effect.
Her growth rate is really amazing, and this little girl is very thorough in what she says and does. If this continues, won't it be even more difficult for them to gain a foothold in this crew?
"Hurry, start the game." The director shouted, bringing the two people who were lost in thought back to reality.
After working for more than two hours, everyone finally completed today's shooting task.
"Ms. Feng, I told you before that I would officially sign a contract with you once you have demonstrated certain abilities. Now it's getting late and I don't have time to prepare for the contract. How about you come back tomorrow?" The director once again performed the same trick as in "Grandma Wolf" to deceive people.
Feng Meng felt that she couldn't sign the contract without Su Nan's approval. She asked with difficulty, "Director, if I sign a contract with you, will I no longer have time to go to my boss's office to take care of the business?"
The director nodded. That was indeed the case, but it was indeed a bit unfair for him to poach Su Nan without her consent.
"In that case, I have to get my boss's approval. After all, if I leave, no one will be in charge of the business." Feng Meng said with some embarrassment.
The director nodded in understanding: "Then I'll go with you to the lounge to find her."
Su Nan is a reasonable and open-minded person. I believe she will let Feng Meng leave and pursue her own dreams.
A few minutes later, the two of them came into the lounge one after the other. Feng Meng sat in front of Su Nan a little stiffly, not knowing how to start the conversation for a moment.
What's wrong with this guy? Can't he just say what he wants to say?
The director sighed, it seemed that he was destined to be the villain today.
"Ms. Su, thank you for teaching Miss Feng so well. I promised to sign a contract with Miss Feng before, and today just happened to be such a good opportunity, so I thought..."
Su Nan waved his hand hastily and interrupted him casually: "I know, no need to beat around the bush. I agree to this matter, but you have to give me a few days. After I find someone who can replace Feng Meng, what do you think, Director?"
Such a difficult multiple-choice question cannot be left to her alone. If the director is not kind, then we can't blame her for making it difficult for him as well.
Upon hearing this, the director readily agreed: "It's the middle of the month now, I'll give you a grace period until the end of the month. How about Feng Meng join the group for training at the beginning of next month?"
Feng Meng's head was like a rattle as she watched Su Nan and the director discuss.
After half an hour, Su Nan compromised and agreed to the director's request.
The two left the crew and called out "Rich". Feng Meng excitedly said, "Nannan, thank you. Without your help and encouragement, there would be no Feng Meng today!"
Su Nan shook her head helplessly and smiled: "Come on, don't be so corny, I'm almost getting goosebumps. Just remember the original reason why you started learning makeup."
Feng Meng nodded solemnly and was about to continue speaking when the phone rang at an inopportune time.
Su Nan glanced at the caller ID and was very confused: Didn't he say he was leaving for a flight today? Why was he still at home?
"Why are you still at home? Did something unexpected happen at the company?" Su Nan asked worriedly.
"No, it's just the weather. The plane can't fly today and can only wait until tomorrow. What were you doing just now? I called you so many times, but either the clerk answered or no one answered." Zhou Rang asked softly.
"I'm glad you're okay. I accompanied Feng Meng to the crew for an internship. But that old man was so mean. He directly poached my girlfriend." Su Nan said with a fake sigh.
Zhou Rang listened to Su Nan's complaints, confused as to why, so he could only offer comfort: "It's okay. Now that Feng Meng is gone, we can just hire another person. I'll stay in Beijing with you for the time being, and we'll slowly look for someone. Don't worry, okay?"
Su Nan burst out laughing, then said: "I'm not the kind of person who will suffer a loss. Feng Meng will have to help me here for another half a month, and she can only join the team at the beginning of next month."
Zhou Rang breathed a sigh of relief: This girl is really a bitch, she made me worry for nothing.
"That's good. If I don't call you before ten o'clock tomorrow, it means I've already boarded a plane to Beijing. Remember to pick me up at the airport at 12:30."
Zhou Rang really missed Su Nan so much, so he decided to put Su Hewei aside this time, and his wife was the most important thing.
