Chapter 164 Have you changed your mind?

After finishing the filming, Bai Nuan started a new chapter of work.

First, she spent a day shooting Danlan's commercial. This day was really busy from morning to night.

Most of the time was spent on hair care and makeup, and the time actually spent on shooting was not much.

But what surprised Bai Nuan was that this time Danlan's commercial... was different from the one in the book.

In the original book, the commercial shot by Xue Youyou was a nostalgic story of childhood sweethearts. A pair of childhood playmates grew up and reunited. The male protagonist recognized the female protagonist's identity by the smell of her shampoo.

In the commercial, Xue Youyou was dressed in a pure white shirt and a serene smile, which fits the temperament of a girl next door.

But when it came to Bai Nuan, there was a change.

The filming location is an old alley, a typical southern landscape with courtyards on both sides of the road.

Bai Nuan's look is a bit like the Republic of China style. She wears a beige and crabapple-colored cheongsam with flowers, thick-heeled high heels, and a beige bag in her hand.

There is no male protagonist in the advertisement she shot, only family love.

The old actor who plays her grandmother has cloudy eyes and can't see, but she knows it's her when she smells her scent.

Bai Nuan chats with her grandmother in the yard and plays the pipa for her.

When she stood up, she accidentally got caught on a branch on her wooden hairpin, and her hair fell out.

Grandma couldn't see, but she smelled the fragrance. She turned halfway around and reached out to touch her hair. When she smelled the familiar smell, her eyes were wet.

The original owner couldn't play the pipa, but Bai Nuan herself could.

She is good at several musical instruments, some of which she learned when she was a child, and some of which she learned specifically for the convenience of filming after entering the circle.

For example, in costume dramas, the heroines must be able to play the piano and dance, and she can do these too.

Not only can she play the pipa, but also the guqin, flute and konghou.

Not to say that she is proficient in all of them, but if the heroine needs to play a piece of music throughout, then she will definitely have no problem performing it completely after a few days of intensive learning.

In addition, she can also play the guitar and piano.

After learning these, there is almost no need to find a substitute actor for the music, which is very convenient for both the crew and herself.

"The inspiration for this story comes from the memory of you and your grandmother that you talked about during the audition."

Director Zhou Ran, the woman who played Bai Nuan in the audition commercial, explained, "Originally we wanted to present a love theme, but because of your inspiration, we changed our minds temporarily and thought it would be better to make it a family theme."

During the audition, Bai Nuan talked about the past when she washed her grandmother's hair in the yard, and also mentioned the discontinued Jasmine shampoo, so this commercial was created.

Compared to the ubiquitous love theme, the story of a granddaughter and her grandmother or grandmother may be more touching.

It just so happens that they, Danlan, originally wanted to do a nostalgic classic reproduction, and now they can launch an advertisement in conjunction with the Jasmine product -

play with emotions once in a while!

After seeing so many trendy advertisements, it might be refreshing to see a nostalgic Jiangnan style.

Bai Nuan was also a little emotional after hearing the reason.

The theme of love is the theme that Xue Youyou should have shot.

Because the part of her audition changed, Danlan even changed the plot of the advertisement, and the overall style changed.

This is probably the butterfly effect.

After the advertisement was shot, Bai Nuan went back home, had dinner with her parents, and then went to visit her grandmother.

Grandma is old and has never been in good health. She is always suffering from major and minor illnesses.

She was hospitalized some time ago, and now her body is beginning to recover.

"Nuannuan seems to have become more beautiful."

Grandma looked at Bai Nuan, with undisguised love in her eyes.

"Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and so is grandma." Bai Nuan joked with a smile.

"No, you just became prettier, and grandma has a sharp eye." Grandma smiled and held her hand.

The original owner was also good-looking, but her style was too fixed, and she always went for the princess style.

Bai Nuan has been in the entertainment industry for a long time and has her own views on fashion. And with either Zeng Qi or Yan Li by her side, she also dresses herself better and knows what kind of makeup and clothes are more suitable.

A little change can make a person beautiful, so grandma didn't see or say it wrong.

"By the way, where is Yu'an, why didn't he come back with you?" Grandma just remembered something at this time and asked.

Bai Nuan put away her smile, "Grandma... I came here just to tell you about this, you should be mentally prepared."

Grandma was stunned, "You and Yu'an, do you have a conflict?"

"We don't have a conflict, we just want to part ways amicably, and we have already called off the engagement." Bai Nuan said and looked at Grandma's expression.

Sure enough, her face sank.

Grandma especially likes Tan Yu'an, and thinks he is good in every way, and he is a rare calm and down-to-earth man nowadays.

Whether it is his family background, appearance, or cultivation and temperament, they are all excellent.

Good things should of course be given to one's family, and good men even more!

Now that she suddenly knows about the cancellation of the engagement, she must be very angry.

"Cancel the engagement? How come I didn't know about such a big thing!"

Grandma held the armrest of the wooden chair, sat down, and looked at Bai Nuan.

"Grandma, calm down first... I'm worried about your health." Bai Nuan quickly put on a smile and explained to Grandma the reason for the cancellation of the engagement.

She specifically explained that she didn't break off the engagement because she had a quarrel with Tan Yu'an, but that the two of them were just boring together and there was no spark.

Grandma's expression was still anxious at first, but she calmed down as she listened, but her brows were tightly locked and she was a little worried.

"Grandma... I'm sorry, I told you now. But I really don't want to continue, and Tan Yu'an also agreed to this. Both families broke off the engagement in peace, so we don't have any grudges with the Tan family, so you don't need to worry too much."

Grandma sighed when she heard this, "Have you changed your mind?"

"Ah?"

Grandma looked at her, "Don't I know you? In the past, you would smile all the time when you mentioned him, and acted like a little girl, but now you don't show any emotion when you mention him. If this isn't a change of heart, then what is it? Tell me, who do you like now?"

"No, no, I haven't changed my heart, but I really don't like him anymore." Bai Nuan shook her head repeatedly.

"You really don't like someone else?"

"I promise, no!"

Grandma fell silent.

"Nuannuan, no matter who you like in the future, grandma has only one requirement...

that they must be of equal social status." Her expression softened, "You and Yu'an... since you've called off the engagement, that's it, but the next person you find must meet these requirements. He must have a similar family background and good character. As for love... this thing is very illusory. Compared with the accumulation of several generations of family background, love is much less solid."
