Even after the makeup artist removed Gu Qingqing's makeup, she still couldn't shake off the role until Gu Mu made her a cup of hot milk tea and let her smell it a few times, at which point she finally came to her senses.
He didn't know if it was good or bad for her to be so serious. If the roles she played in the future were all kind and outgoing, then it wouldn't be a big problem.
But what if you play a terminally ill patient or a person with depression?
Because of the negative energy of the characters, it is easy for people to become blinded by their own emotions, and getting too involved in the role can lead to injury.
"Second brother, give me some!" The aroma of milk tea, which she hadn't had for days, made Gu Qingqing's mouth water.
"Okay, you can drink it." Gu Mu came back to his senses and saw her greedy look on her face before he felt relieved.
Only after placing the milk tea in her hand did he have a moment to remove his makeup and change out of his costume.
Gu Qingqing sipped her milk tea slowly while the hairstylist took her hair out of style.
After working for half an hour, she changed back into her own clothes, went back to the guest room with Gu Mu to rest, had dinner in the guest room, and was too tired to have any nightlife activities, so she went to bed early and went to sleep.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Gu Qingqing remembered that she hadn't seen Fu Jue while filming that afternoon, even though he had said he was going to come see her.
I don't know if I was too focused on filming and didn't notice him.
He still didn't come.
I really want to call him and hear his voice, but I'm so sleepy.
Unable to resist the drowsiness, Gu Qingqing yawned, her eyelids drooping, unable to open them as if weighed down by a hundred-pound weight.
Let's go to sleep!
The entire crew was exhausted, so Director Yang specially approved that everyone could sleep for another half hour and arrive half an hour later to start work.
This made everyone extremely happy.
Gu Qingqing was unaware of this. When she woke up, Gu Mu carried her to the dressing room again, but this time she woke up quickly.
"Qingqing, eat your congee with preserved egg and lean pork, and dumplings too." The breakfast Gu Mu brought this time was rather ordinary, but it was enough to fill her up.
Because of the urgency, we had to leave the small mountain village before dark that afternoon.
There are still a few scenes to film. If we can perform as well as yesterday and Director Yang doesn't call a halt, we can finish filming before dark.
"Mmm-hmm." Gu Qingqing's mouth was already full of dumplings, and she could only nod and say "Mmm-hmm" to speak.
The hairstylist didn't dare waste a single moment while working on her hair.
After she finished eating, her hair was done.
It was the makeup artist's turn to appear. Today's makeup was relatively simple, after all, she was playing a country girl, and couldn't compare to the concubines in the imperial harem or the daughters of noble families, who were dressed in flamboyant attire.
In addition, today we will be filming a scene where the enemy burns down the village and we lose our families. Because there is a crying scene, I will be wearing light makeup.
As she was getting ready to change into her costume, Gu Qingqing realized she hadn't checked her phone yet. She quickly opened WeChat and contacted Fu Jue, and sure enough, she saw a message. It turned out he had something to do yesterday afternoon and hadn't come to watch her filming.
She sent him a photo of herself and told him to come and take a look when he had time, because she might have to finish work and go back to the capital before dark that afternoon.
The assistant urged Gu Qingqing to change into her costume. She didn't dare to delay and went to change without waiting for Fu Jue's reply. She then hurriedly followed the assistant, makeup artist, and others to the filming location.
Meanwhile, Gu Mu and Lu Qi were already acting together on set. They were performing a scene where the female lead was taking care of the male lead, and in the process, they fell for each other and developed feelings for one another.
Meanwhile, the silly second female lead is doing housework and farm work in the fields.
Because the male protagonist spent a lot of money on medical treatment, and he didn't have anything of value on him, she had to borrow ten taels of silver from several families and even gave them a ginseng root that she had accidentally discovered some time ago, which she was planning to sell.
As a result, she encountered the male protagonist, who was seriously injured and needed a ginseng to survive. The second female lead, considering that he was a war god who was seriously injured for the sake of the country and the people, took out a ginseng and made medicine for him.
Seeing the male and female leads getting along better and better, and always looking so affectionate, Gu Qingqing felt a little uncomfortable.
The second female lead sacrificed so much in the early stages, but all the good fortune was taken away by the female lead. It's so unfair!
Which screenwriter wrote it?
Uh, it seems to be adapted from an online novel. It's said to be a bestseller online, with three or four out of ten readers having read it.
But the plot just doesn't make any sense.
For example, the second female lead incurred a debt of ten taels of silver to save the male lead, which was like adding insult to injury for this already impoverished farming family.
Originally, she had a ginseng root that had been stored for decades. She could have sold it to raise money for her younger brother's schooling, and even improved her family's living conditions with the remaining money. But in order to save the male protagonist, she lost everything.
A month after the male protagonist began recovering from his injuries, strangers frequently appeared in the vicinity, claiming to be searching for relatives who had fallen off a waterfall.
It turned out that the enemy's spies were looking for the male protagonist. After realizing the danger, he packed his things overnight with the female protagonist, who had just lost her grandmother who had been seriously ill and passed away, and rode away on horseback at dawn.
The second female lead was unwilling to accept defeat, so she ran along the mountain road to find them. Her neighbor, Tang Ming, noticed this and, worried, gave chase, but still failed to catch up with the male and female leads.
He then took the second female lead back to the small village, only to find the village eerily quiet and thick smoke billowing out.
The second female lead rushed in out of concern, but Tang Ming, who had noticed the problem, stopped her and they found a place to hide.
But then they saw a dozen or so bad guys come out, carrying blood-stained knives and torches, setting fires everywhere.
The second female lead was terrified, crying and screaming. Tang Ming covered her mouth, preventing the bad guys from noticing.
They only dared to come out after the bad guys left, only to find the whole village on fire.
The second female lead ran home and saw her elderly father and two younger siblings dead inside the house. She tried to rush in and move their bodies out, but was blocked by the fire and was pulled back by Tang Ming.
They could only watch helplessly as their thatched hut was consumed by fire and their family perished in the flames.
Tang Ming took her on a walk through the entire village to see if there were any lucky survivors. They found a token along the way and eventually discovered the mute boy from next door in the cellar.
He and the second female lead's younger brother and sister are childhood sweethearts and play together the most.
The second female lead hugged him and cried because all his relatives had also died.
Before I could even feel happy, I heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Tang Ming carried a large bag of potatoes and sweet potatoes out of the cellar and hurriedly led the second female lead and the mute boy into the mountains.
Fortunately, they acted quickly enough; otherwise, if the enemy spies had found the cellar, they would have discovered them.
They hid in the mountains for three days before daring to come down. Seeing their village and loved ones reduced to ashes, the three of them left the village with a heart full of hatred, embarking on a path of revenge.
They had no money or power, so they could only search for the male protagonist in Kyoto. They wanted to find the enemy spy through the male protagonist and use his power and influence to avenge their relatives and the villagers.
Gu Qingqing, who played the second female lead, portrayed the village girl very realistically and vividly.
Fu Jue secretly came to the filming location to watch her performance and was deeply impressed by it.
He spent the entire morning on set watching, and when filming ended at noon, he approached Director Yang and expressed his intention to invest 90 million yuan in the film, becoming the biggest investor and providing Gu Qingqing with the most and best resources.
