Chapter 39
How come the story of the college entrance examination is not considered Chinese horror?
No matter what, Ling Suisui still attaches great importance to the questions raised by the stylist.
She looked at herself in the mirror again and again, and finally adjusted the position of her shoulders. Her back was originally straight, and her whole temperament was upward, but now she has hunched her chest, lowered her head, and has a slight hunched back.
This posture is definitely not very beautiful, but it makes her look more like a high school senior who is under a lot of pressure. In order to better fit the role, Ling Suisui can accept that her beauty will be compromised.
She is here to act, not to take a photo album. Do I have to imitate some celebrities and deliberately look for the best angle to look at in front of the camera? That's too greasy.
Before taking her makeup photos, Ling Sui drank a cup of super bitter pure bitter melon juice, which helped her find the feeling of having countless complaints and roars in her heart but could only smile at the camera.
The cameraman was frightened by her: "Teacher Ling, we don't have to get into the role so quickly. I feel like I'm shooting a horror movie poster."
Chen Yuening said quietly beside him: "How come the story of the college entrance examination is not considered Chinese horror?"
He complained on the side, saying that he felt tired when he thought back to this time last year. Passing the art exam does not mean relief. If the college entrance examination results are bad, he can't imagine how he will be ridiculed and whether he will have the courage to fight for another year.
The other two actors echoed this. Although Ling Sui's memory of the college entrance examination was quite long ago, he still felt scared when he heard them mention it.
Ji Zhaoying opened a bottle of mineral water for her. She sat next to him and slowly recalled her life in high school.
Jiang Heng joked, "My brother Yue is sitting right here. Why don't you take the ice spring? You are really disrespecting Brother Yue."
Bingquan is a brand endorsed by Chen Yuening, and its packaging is blue, while the one that Ji Zhaoying handed to Ling Suisui was Changyue, which has a green packaging.
You know what, it’s such a coincidence - just yesterday, Chi Jia was officially announced as the spokesperson for Changyue.
Chen Yuening: …
For some reason, he now dislikes the bottle of green mineral water.
Ji Zhaoying and Jiang Heng were joking around, and Ling Suisui didn't care about the mineral water at all.
She suggested: "Shouldn't these characters wear glasses during class? In my impression, everyone was slightly nearsighted when they were students."
Jiang Heng thought for a while and said, "It seems so. People don't wear them normally. But when the class starts, when I look over from the podium, I see everyone wearing glasses."
This suggestion was unanimously agreed upon by several people, and the stylist went to get glasses for them.
Ji Zhaoying asked: "Does Xue Yuchen want one too? My brother is a poor student. He probably doesn't care whether he can see the blackboard clearly or not."
“…It’s not that exaggerated.”
Chen Yuening analyzed: "You and I are brother and sister. Since Daddy gave you glasses, he must have thought of me."
That makes sense, but they weren't able to try on the glasses today.
Because when the stylist reported this to the producer, the producer agreed, but he wanted to find an advertiser.
According to Ling Suisui's idea, with so many people in a class having to wear glasses, this would be a great promotion opportunity. He must get sponsorship, and maybe even negotiate for product placement.
The school was on vacation, and Ling Suisui had no room to rent in the imperial capital, so she moved into the hotel arranged by the crew in advance.
Ji Zhaoying lives opposite her, and the room next door is temporarily vacant because she has not found an assistant to follow the group yet.
Compared with Ding Fengbo, Ling Sui's treatment in the Jin Bang Ti Ming crew has increased significantly, and the standard for accommodation reimbursement is one room each for her and the staff.
In addition to her single room, she now has special meals for the actors, and no longer has to order takeout because the crew's boxed lunches are too greasy and salty.
Ling Suisui thought that she must have received care from Teacher Tang Bing and the help from the other three friends to be able to receive such a leap in treatment.
As for the selection of an assistant, Ling Suisui left it to Zhang Wen.
She actually considered Zheng Wenjun, but Wenjun said that she now has a new career direction, so forget it.
According to Zhang Wen's idea, this time she is not just looking for a follow-up assistant, but a long-term assistant. After the filming of "The Golden List" is finished, she wants to arrange for her to participate in some variety shows in her spare time.
In Zhang Wen's mind, Ling Sui's appearance on "Mystery In Progress" can be considered her debut. How could an artist not participate in activities for a long time and just stay in school?
Coming from a top team, she couldn't stand Ling Suisui's blank schedule at all.
After considering it, Ling Suisui agreed with Zhang Wen's opinion.
The courses in the second year are relatively less intense, and if you are just a guest on a variety show, it won’t take up too much time to record once.
Ling Sui does not have to worry about being exposed too frequently, which might affect her sense of mystery as an actor - with her popularity and status, it would be difficult for her to appear on any popular variety shows without anyone recommending her.
Therefore, let alone whether the audience will have a fixed impression of her, what Ling Suisui needs to consider now is whether they can remember her name and remember that she exists in the domestic entertainment industry.
Zhang Wen found an assistant for her named Kang Le, saying that the name was auspicious and particularly suitable for her. Moreover, Kang Le studied home economics in a vocational college and has strong abilities in all aspects.
Ling Suisui did not comment on the "auspicious" statement, but she was very satisfied with Kang Le's business capabilities.
There would be no problem for Kang Le to take care of her daily life. Besides, she is from Guangdong Province and can cook light Cantonese dishes and many kinds of soups. When Ling Suisui was with her, they could even speak Cantonese, which was great.
On the eve of the filming of "Jin Bang Ti Ming", Ling Sui was lying on the bed playing with his cell phone.
After twelve o'clock, she simply entered the system page to sign in, but had no intention of entering the internal space.
System: [Host, has your schedule changed? 】
Tomorrow is the opening ceremony, and she has to put on makeup at seven in the morning. To be on the safe side, she has to get up at six. She hasn't even had any rest yet?
Ling Sui simply nodded without further explanation.
By twelve o'clock, she was almost ready to go to bed. But her body could not enter deep sleep, so she could only sleep in a normal state, otherwise her energy would be fully restored the next day and this night would be in vain.
Since unlocking the internal space function, Ling Sui has become accustomed to leaving his body with his consciousness and letting his body fall asleep passively. Now, falling asleep on her own initiative while awake is an experience she hasn't had for a long time.
She played sleep-inducing music on a Bluetooth speaker and closed her eyes to recall the information she had collected over the past few days.
Although he was unable to return to school, Ling Suisui searched on social platforms using keywords such as "college entrance examination sprint" and "daily life in senior year of high school" and still found a lot of experience sharing posts.
She no longer has any use for these exam experiences. What she mainly sees is how netizens adjust their mindset in preparation for the exam, and how they complain to each other and try to comfort each other in the comment section.
Ling Sui recalled the test paper that he would never finish, and slowly fell asleep at one o'clock in the morning.
At six in the morning, when the vibration on her wrist woke her up, she almost didn't open her eyes, she was so sleepy.
She rarely stayed in bed for a few minutes and experienced the feeling that Chen Yuening described: "I know I should get up but my body just won't cooperate." At this moment, people may really be lucky and think that they can still make it in time, so why can't they sleep a little longer?
In the end, Ling Sui relied on his strong willpower to climb out of the bed before Kang Le came in.
She changed out of her pajamas and stood in the bathroom to wash up. Kang Le was combing her hair from behind and asked worriedly, "Sui Sui, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just too sleepy."
Ling Suisui spat out the mouthwash and washed his face with cold water.
She walked a few steps in the room, and her chaotic mind gradually became clear. However, it is still far worse than her previous energetic state.
Ling Sui looked at herself in the mirror, and there was obvious fatigue in her eyes. She asked Kang Le to take a close-up photo of her eyes so that she could find this feeling again in the future.
For actors, immersion is useful but a relatively rudimentary method. Ling Sui first used it to cope with the filming of Jin Bang Ti Ming, but in her later acting career, she still hopes to reduce the impact of the external environment and rely more on her own acting skills.
After all, not every character can be immersed in her personality. What if she has to play a villain in the future?
Ling Sui did a few stretching exercises in the room and felt a little more awake before going out to the dressing room with Kang Le.
She knocked on Ji Zhaoying's door. After the assistant opened the door, she saw Ji Zhaoying still lying there.
"Sui Sui, you go first." She struggled to get up from the bed, "I'll be there in a minute."
...Well, staying up late is a way for Ling Suisui to find his role, but for Ji Zhaoying, it is a part of daily life.
Ji Zhaoying yawned and said, "I ate a super big melon last night, and I forgot to sleep. Wait, I'll tell you later."
Ling Sui is reserved about her "big melon". After all, the last time she described it this way, it was just that a certain male star's abdominal muscles needed to be photoshopped.
The most surprising part of this scandal is that the photo retoucher was agreed to pay 250 yuan for the photo, but the star was stingy and delayed paying the balance, causing the retoucher to release the original photo in anger. Before it became a hot topic, the team spent countless times more money to deal with the matter before it was settled.
She went to the elevator, and when the elevator door opened, Chen Yuening stopped yawning with her mouth wide open.
Ling Sui's expression was fine, but Kang Le was inexperienced and couldn't hold back his laughter.
Chen Yuening: …
Can I live on another planet now?
Seeing him looking for a hole in the ground in embarrassment, Ling Suisui started the conversation:
"You didn't sleep well last night?"
Chen Yuening nodded and said a little embarrassedly: "I accidentally played games until two o'clock..."
Ling Suisui nodded in understanding. It seemed that this person was addicted to the canyon.
The elevator door opened and they walked side by side to the dressing room suite. When they met several seniors on the way, they did not forget to say hello to their teachers.
Chen Yuening and Ling Suisui both have their own dressing seats. They just need to sit down and wait for people to come. Tang Bing and others were treated better, as they could wait for the makeup artists from the crew to come to their homes with tool boxes.
When Ling Sui was halfway through putting on her makeup, Jiang Heng arrived. Ji Zhaoying hurried over when she had almost finished painting.
Fortunately, they are students, so the makeup steps are not that complicated. If it were a costume drama crew, the remaining time would not be enough for her to apply foundation.
"Aren't you going to have breakfast?" Ling Sui asked.
Before the makeup artist came over, she and Chen Yuening had already eaten two vegetarian buns.
In response, Ji Zhaoying said: "It's okay, I'll open my mouth wider and the lipstick won't get on it."
As soon as she sat down, she couldn't wait to speak: "Let me tell you, I heard last night that the debut list for this season of Starlight Glitter has been finalized!"
