Falling in love with the movie star 12
Li Qiao cried for a long time in the bathroom. Although she had suffered a lot of grievances since her debut, this was the first time she felt so angry.
But as long as she wanted to stay in the company, she would have to continue to endure such grievances in the future. She knew that Tao Yuan would not let her go so easily. Because if it were her, she would not let Tao Yuan go either.
After washing her face, Li Qiao walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing Cheng Yi standing not far away, Li Qiao was stunned for a moment, then walked over and called out, "Cousin."
Cheng Yi saw what happened just now and realized that Tao Yuan was deliberately trying to trick her. "Do you have a grudge against Hua Xi?"
"Yeah." Li Qiao nodded. "I bullied him before, and now he's bullied me back."
Li Qiao had nothing to hide from Cheng Yi. Although she and Cheng Yi were not very close, they were at least acquaintances.
"Come see me tomorrow and tell me in detail. Maybe I can help you."
"Really?" Li Qiao was surprised. She hadn't expected Cheng Yi to offer to help her. If he was willing to help her, then she would be truly lucky. She wouldn't have to worry about being bullied at work anymore.
Cheng Yi gave her his phone number, made an appointment with her, and then turned and left.
Cheng Yi returned to the filming site, and next, it was his, Tao Yuan and Zheng Xuanlin's turn to act.
The scene to be filmed is about Shui Junyao visiting Zhao Xuan in the Imperial Garden. Mingxuan is also there, and the two are enjoying a drink and chatting happily. Shui Junyao becomes jealous and deliberately targets Mingxuan, hoping to gain Zhao Xuan's attention.
Mingxuan's indifference, gentleness and elegance form a sharp contrast with Shui Junyao's sourness and temper.
Zhao Xuan obviously favored Mingxuan, which made Shui Junyao even more jealous and dissatisfied. However, Zhao Xuan also comforted Shui Junyao. After all, at this time, he still loved Shui Junyao in his heart.
The makeup artist was helping Tao Yuan with her makeup and hair. Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi had already sat down in the garden. After everything was ready, Xiang Qing shouted "Start" loudly into the loudspeaker.
Shui Junyao walked into the imperial garden in her long skirt and bowed to Zhao Xuan, saying, "Your Majesty."
Zhao Xuan was not surprised by his appearance. He reached out and helped him up. "Why are you here, my beloved concubine?"
Mingxuan saw Shui Junyao and stood up to greet her, "Your Highness."
"Of course, I'm here to see Your Majesty." Shui Junyao glanced at Mingxuan and said, "Your Majesty, as a minister, it's probably inappropriate for you to frequently enter and leave this forbidden palace. As a minister, you should share more government affairs with Your Majesty, instead of drinking with him all day long."
"Your Majesty is absolutely right. Your Majesty and I..."
"Stop!" Xiang Qing suddenly called for a halt, then said into the megaphone, "Cheng Yi, watch your eyes. You should be more frank at this moment, and your expression shouldn't be so serious. Get ready and try again."
While the staff were preparing, Zheng Xuanlin looked at Tao Yuan with concern and asked, "Are you tired?"
"Fortunately, there is no dancing scene today, so it's not very tiring." Tao Yuan said in a low voice.
Zheng Xuanlin reached out to his assistant, who immediately ran over, opened the thermos and handed it to him.
"Bird's nest, drink some to moisten your throat." Zheng Xuanlin handed the cup to Tao Yuan's mouth.
Tao Yuan held up the thermos cup and said, "Let's drink it after we finish filming this scene. I have lipstick on, and it will be bad if it gets on me."
"It's specially prepared for you, just apply it. After you finish drinking it, let the makeup artist come and touch up your makeup." Zheng Xuanlin urged him with his eyes.
Tao Yuan could only hold the thermos cup and drink carefully, trying not to let his lips touch it.
Cheng Yi originally wanted to calm down and finish the filming properly, but the intimate atmosphere between the two seriously affected his mood and made it even more difficult for him to calm down.
After Tao Yuan took a small sip of the bird's nest, he returned the thermos to Zheng Xuanlin. Zheng Xuanlin took the cup and took a big sip before handing it to the assistant who was waiting nearby.
Filming started again. Although Cheng Yi was emotionally unstable, he was a talented actor after all, and his acting skills could still stand the test.
But the further the story progressed, the more Xiang Qing couldn't help but frown. Judging from the performance of the three people, it seemed that there was no problem and they could pass it directly. However, except for Tao Yuan, Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi didn't feel right.
Xiang Qing not only cares about the actors' acting skills, but also the feelings they express. In other words, whether the actors are sincere and whether they have fully brought into the emotions of the role is what she cares about most.
Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi's acting skills are impeccable, but in Xiang Qing's eyes, they just couldn't find the feeling, and didn't devote themselves to the role wholeheartedly, so the traces of acting were a bit obvious.
"Stop, stop, stop, stop!" Xiang Qing said the word "stop" five times in a row. She stood up and said, "Come here for a moment."
The three of them walked over to Xiang Qing, and Xiang Qing replayed the footage they had just filmed.
"Just look at your performances," Xiang Qing said. "Except for Hua Xi, who fully invested in the emotions she was supposed to, Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi, you two didn't really get the emotions right. Although your acting skills alone did carry the scene through, your emotions weren't there, and there was no appeal at all."
After watching the replay, Zheng Xuanlin and Cheng Yi understood exactly why Xiang Qing said that. They also knew that they had mixed too much of their own emotions into the performance, which was why, as Xiang Qing had said, the character's emotions weren't captured properly.
"You should think about it carefully. This is something you are very good at, so I don't need to teach you. If you don't even know how to find the right emotions, then I don't have the ability to teach you." Xiang Qing said.
Weekly dramas are the most rushed, but Xiang Qing has always had high demands. If the effect she wants is not achieved, she will not settle for unsatisfactory shots.
The two of them went to find places to calm down, while Tao Yuan sat alone in a daze.
Cheng Yi truly lost control of his emotions, and Zheng Xuanlin's actions were intentional. He simply wanted Xiang Qing to feel that he couldn't express his feelings for Cheng Yi. Even if this damaged his image as a talented actor, it didn't matter, and it was just foreshadowing.
After they came back, the three of them started filming again.
Xiang Qing looked at the screen seriously, then frowned again.
"Stop!" Xiang Qing stood up and walked directly in front of them. She looked at Cheng Yi and said, "Cheng Yi, you should be more calm right now and not so intense. And what's with the sourness in your eyes? That's what Hua Xi should be feeling. He's jealous of the two of you, not you. You haven't fallen in love with Zhao Xuan yet."
Xiang Qing turned to Zheng Xuanlin again, "And you, it's true that you have feelings for Shui Junyao, but that strong love shouldn't be expressed here. Look at Hua Xi's eyes, they're a bit too much. Try to hold back a little. Also, Shui Junyao is clearly being unreasonable with you. Intellectually, you should be more inclined towards Mingxuan. So, while you comfort Shui Junyao verbally, your emotions should be on Mingxuan's side."
"You two, I've already wasted enough of my time. Could you please put your emotions into this and finish this shoot as soon as possible?"
Neither Zheng Xuanlin nor Cheng Yi had been taught a lesson like this for many years.
When facing Zheng Xuanlin and Tao Yuan, Cheng Yi was unable to control his jealousy, so he was unable to empathize with the characters.
Zheng Xuanlin couldn't control the love that was about to overflow in his heart whenever he looked at Tao Yuan. It was difficult for him to be emotionally inclined towards someone else when looking at Tao Yuan, and he didn't want to do it in his heart.
Xiang Qing glanced at the sky. The sun was about to set. By the time they got into the right mood, it would probably be too late to grab the light and take pictures.
"The light is almost gone. Once it gets dark, we won't be able to shoot with lights. After all, this is a daytime scene, not a nighttime scene." Xiang Qing said, "How about this, let's call it a day and reshoot this part tomorrow."
"Sorry, guide." Cheng Yi said quickly, "I have to fly abroad tonight and have an important audition tomorrow."
"Going abroad for an audition?" Xiang Qing looked at him unhappily and asked, "If you get the audition, you'll have to film abroad. Are you planning on going back and forth?"
"Don't worry, guide. I will arrange the time properly and it will not affect the filming here." Cheng Yi said.
"But you're already affecting the filming. You'll have more and more scenes later, so there will definitely be two or three days of reshoots. If you're not there, who will shoot for you?" Xiang Qing asked.
“This opportunity is very important to me, I…”
"Then you shouldn't have taken this drama!" Xiang Qing said, "You were the one who insisted on doing it from the beginning, and now you think other opportunities are more important. To me, nothing is more important than my drama. If you think other opportunities are more important, that's your business."
"We'll be reshooting tomorrow. It's up to you whether you want to come or not." Xiang Qing turned around and shouted, "Call it a day!"
After changing his clothes, Tao Yuan walked towards the parking lot, but he did not get into the company's nanny car. Instead, after talking to Liu Yong for a few words, he got into another car.
"What's wrong with you today?" Tao Yuan asked as soon as he got in the car. "Your performance was so abnormal, it's not like you at all. You are a powerful actor, and your acting skills are among the best in the entire entertainment industry."
"It's all because of you." Zheng Xuanlin turned his face around, looked into his eyes, and said seriously, "When I see your eyes, I can't feel the existence of others. It's even more impossible for me to look at you and lean towards others in my heart."
"Is it my fault?" Tao Yuan looked at him helplessly.
"Of course I blame you," Zheng Xuanlin pulled him into his arms and kissed him hard on the face. "Who made you so attractive and made me love you so much?"
Tao Yuan hugged his waist, leaned on his shoulder and said, "Do you think Cheng Yi will come for the reshoot tomorrow? He won't just leave it alone and go abroad for the audition, right? The guide will definitely go crazy if he does that."
"Whether he comes or not, if he really decides to run between the two, it will just reduce his later scenes, and I can also display my acting skills normally."
Before filming began, Zheng Xuanlin didn't think Cheng Yi would affect his acting skills. However, after filming began, he fell in love with Tao Yuan and was unable to express his affection for others, even his acting was not convincing. Even he himself didn't expect it to be so affected, but he didn't feel unhappy about it.
After dinner, the two of them made out in the bathroom.
Coming out of the bathroom in his bathrobe, Tao Yuan sat down on the bed and asked, "Do you want me to act with you? If you still don't perform well tomorrow, the guide will definitely be even angrier."
Zheng Xuanlin sat down beside him, hugged him and lay down on the bed. After kissing his soft lips for a while, he said, "Let's practice the bed scene. This way we will be more proficient when filming."
"Don't let your mind be filled with such things. You are the movie emperor. Where are your strict requirements and high standards? Aren't you worried at all that this drama will be ruined?" Tao Yuan looked at him and said.
"Strict requirements and high standards?" Zheng Xuanlin thought for a moment and said, "Maybe after I released it into your body, it was washed away by the water when I was cleaning it. Am I the only one with that kind of thing on my mind? Don't you want it?"
Zheng Xuanlin kissed him again, and Tao Yuan instinctively kissed him back, almost immediately aroused. He couldn't really say he didn't want it, because he enjoyed it every time, and sometimes he would even take the initiative to seduce him.
