Yongli glanced coldly at his subordinate, "Will keeping this rabble around kill you?"
"Yes! Take him away. Listen to the Palace Master, take him back and raise him." The subordinate, who only had one mind, had his own way of explaining things.
"We, the people of Orchid Valley, will never let you get away with this!"
"The sisters of Orchid Valley will not accept your insults."
"We'll take you all down with us!"
"Senior sister..."
...
The extras in Orchid Valley each recited their own unique lines.
They kept in mind what the director said: to portray that indomitable spirit.
Some people will even put on an act, glaring at you and putting on a loyal facade.
Some people even stood up, ready to start another fight.
This area has become noisy again.
It was at this time that Xu Yanyu reappeared.
She was still wearing a long dress, like a fairy walking on water, slowly drifting in from the bamboo forest shrouded in mist.
The extras continued to appear, calling out, "Senior Sister!"
"We're saved!"
...
This wire stunt was extremely difficult, and Xu Yanyu felt a chill run down her spine looking at the scene below.
"Weapons! Remember to get the weapons out first!" came Director Wei's command in my ear.
Xu Yanyu obediently threw the prop away.
The light props spun in the air, while Xu Yanyu landed safely.
She stood still, her long, jet-black hair cascading down like a waterfall. Her face, unadorned, was pure and ethereal, and her brows held a serene and otherworldly air.
With her arrival, a faint, indescribable fragrance seemed to fill the air, a perfect blend of nature and purity that inspired awe, a sense of closeness, and longing.
She glanced coldly at Yongli, who was draped in a black robe.
His eyes held only indifference and murderous intent.
"Good! This part is very good. Yan Yu's eyes are spot on; they should convey the sense of unfamiliarity when facing strangers, as well as the chilling intent when facing intruders."
Director Wei shouted from the side, then shouted towards Duan Nianzhuang: "Originally, Liu Jing's props were to be thrown to a black-clad extra next to her."
But Yongli didn't want anyone else to touch Liu Jing's weapon; he wanted to take it from her...
So Duan Nianzhuang picked up the props. "We'll shoot the lower part first, and then we'll film the upper part later."
Director Wei remembered to pay attention to the details at this point.
One of the extras gave the prop to Duan Nianzhuang.
Director Wei suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Duan Nianzhuang, you're suffering from the backlash of the weapon's power, and your expression is a bit painful, but because you officially met Liu Jing..."
Your expression needs to be joyful again. Can you pull off an expression where one half your face is in pain and the other half is happy?
Everyone fell silent.
Who could make such a mixed expression of joy and pain?
Only an award-winning actor could do that, right?
Duan Nianzhuang tried it, then shook his head and said, "I can't do it!"
Everyone felt that Director Wei was making things difficult for people.
Even Zhang Ying tried it, saying on Duan Nianzhuang's behalf, "Director Wei, this is an expression that no human could possibly make."
"Yes, isn't everyone only capable of expressing one emotion?"
Chang Xuan also tried, and he was certain he couldn't do it.
Director Wei looked at everyone, patted his head, and told them the direction of each muscle.
Xu Yanyu reflexively adjusted the muscles in her face, and a smile mixed with a bit of bitterness immediately appeared on her face.
Director Wei, who happened to turn around, caught a glimpse of Xu Yanyu's expression and exclaimed excitedly, "Yes, yes, yes! That's the expression! It's a mix of joy, sorrow, and bitterness, but the main tone is still joy!"
Director Wei pointed at Xu Yanyu and continued, "Yanyu, keep this expression."
Duan Nianzhuang, come here and learn this! You absolutely must learn this emoji; if you add it, you're guaranteed to go viral!
All eyes turned to Xu Yanyu.
Everyone was convinced!
Director Wei wasn't just making this up; there really are people in the world who can make such complex expressions.
A hint of surprise flashed across Zhang Ying's eyes.
She tried, but she couldn't do it.
Chang Xuan, standing next to Zhang Ying, also tried to mimic the expression on Xu Yanyu's face.
That won't work either, because his eyes will inevitably squint.
Duan Nianzhuang listened to Director Wei's words and stood opposite Xu Yanyu.
I tried it, but I could only complete half of it.
He couldn't help but doubt himself. Was his acting really that bad?
Even Xu Yanyu, who is known as the biggest "pretty face" in the entertainment industry, can make that expression, so why can't he?
No, it's not just him who can't do it, no one else can either.
Duan Nianzhuang's eyes shifted to the group of extras beside him, some with slanted eyes and others with crooked mouths.
He turned around again and saw that Yingjie's lips were slightly crooked, and then her eyebrows couldn't help but twitch...
It looks rather ferocious.
Director Wei scratched his head, wondering what was going on.
So, the most talented person in this production crew is actually Xu Yanyu.
It's so easy to understand.
Director Wei couldn't help but sigh, "Nian Zhuang, it seems you still need to improve your acting skills."
Duan Nianzhuang also felt wronged. Among so many people present, only Xu Yanyu made the expression that Director Wei wanted.
He always thought his acting skills were pretty good.
Director Wei asked, "Can't you make that kind of expression?"
This question was directed at another actor.
Everyone fell silent; they really couldn't do it.
At this moment, the assistant director next to him said, "Now there is an AI face-swapping technology, why don't we have Xu Yanyu help Yongli act out this expression first?"
"Shall we replace it with AI technology then?"
