Jiang Tao made a zipping motion to signal silence.
"Number Six."
When Liu Nian's name was called, she happened to run into actress number five coming out of the audition room as she walked to the door. Seeing her looking radiant, Liu Nian assumed that she had been cast.
As they passed each other, they nodded to each other as a greeting.
The interviewee was a female villain, specifically the third female lead.
The villainous character not only needs to be breathtakingly beautiful, but also so evil that you can both love and hate her.
Liu Nian is beautiful and charming enough. She has always been good at controlling her expressions. Acting is a piece of cake for her. She can do it in one take.
After the performance, Liu Nian bowed deeply, then got up and left.
Seeing that she came out so quickly and so calmly, Jiang Tao knew that the show was almost certainly going to be a success.
The two then left together.
I was notified that I had passed the interview on the same day, and filming started two days later.
The new drama was filmed in a mountainous area.
The production team informed all actors that they would depart in two days.
Liu Nian took this opportunity to become a complete slacker.
On the day of departure, the film crew hired a van to pick them up.
Liu Nian assumed that all the actors had traveled by van, but when they met up, she discovered that she was the only one who had traveled by van, while the other actors had taken a bus.
Liu Nian felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had always been low-key, and the sudden unfair treatment from the crew made her feel awkward as people stared at her.
Perhaps Jiang Tao had given prior notice, because when filming began, the crew actually split into two groups of photographers, and arranged for an actress who had scenes with the third female lead to film her scenes with her.
Liu Nian is someone who has lived for thousands of years, so acting is a piece of cake for him; he can usually get it right in one take.
However, the male actors who act opposite her are different. Sometimes, because Liu Nian is so beautiful, she often causes the male actors to lose their composure, stutter, blush, or make mistakes.
A single shot can be filmed a maximum of five times, but a minimum of three times to be considered complete.
The third female lead in this drama has a role that extends to the very end.
It took Liu Nian a whole month to finish filming her scenes.
Jiang Tao was always by her side, acting as both her agent and assistant. As soon as Liu Nian finished filming, he would immediately bring her water and tea, running around so much that he was tired and started to complain.
"My goodness, how about I find you an assistant?!"
Liu Nian: "I don't want to waste that money." Hiring an assistant would require paying a salary, and she didn't have the money; her money was needed to raise her child.
Jiang Tao: "I'll go! Am I going?"
Liu Nian looked at him strangely: "Are you very rich?"
Jiang Tao thought to himself: I have to find someone even if I don't have money; he was really at his wit's end.
"A little..."
Without asking any further questions, Liu Nian simply said, "Oh, then find me a male assistant."
"Why a male assistant?" Jiang Tao probably thought she wanted to start a relationship.
When I met Liu Nian, she was 20. Now, five years have passed, and she's 25. It's time for her to find someone to date.
"I don't need a delicate girl to carry my luggage."
Jiang Tao: "..."
Two days later, after Liu Nian auditioned for a new drama, wherever she went, she would be accompanied by a handsome and tall man.
When Jiang Tao handed the person over to her, he gave her a brief introduction.
"His name is Cheng Yanyi, he's 23 years old, he's studied Taekwondo and boxing, he can be an assistant or a bodyguard, and most importantly, he's tall and handsome, you'll like him."
Liu Nian knew at the time that he was overthinking things, but she didn't explain.
"The new drama is going to be filmed in another city. Remember to pack your bags when you go back. You're leaving tomorrow."
This is what Liu Nian said before getting out of the car after Cheng Yan drove her to her apartment building.
"Okay." He replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
He watched Liu Nian enter the elevator before driving away.
