Director Mo Jiao was completely stunned by Gu Weiwei's performance, while the screenwriter standing behind him stared in disbelief at the monitor screen.
Just three minutes ago, he was convinced that this Mu Weiwei could not possibly portray the Huo Jing he wanted.
Now, he had only one thought: no one but her could portray Huo Jing as he wanted her.
A nineteen-year-old girl who hasn't even taken a single class at film school, yet her acting skills are already textbook-worthy.
At the age of nineteen, he perfectly portrayed the aura and ruthlessness of a twenty-seven-year-old head of the Military Intelligence Bureau.
The look in his eyes and the way he fired the gun, every gesture he made to direct his subordinates, was exactly the Huo Jing he had envisioned.
Director Mo Jiao and the screenwriter are looking forward to seeing what the effect will be after this scene is filmed.
In the footage, Huo Jing catches up with Fang Yan and her group.
Huo Jing, exuding murderous intent, killed two people with her gun. Just as she was about to catch up with Fang Yan, one of Fang Yan's companions was shot in front of her, and blood splattered all over her face.
She looked at Huo Jing, who was chasing after her, and raised her gun to fight back.
However, when she met Huo Jing's cold and murderous gaze and expression, her hand holding the gun trembled involuntarily. She managed to fire two shots and continue her escape with her remaining two companions.
...
Director Mo Jiao pressed the megaphone in displeasure, "Cut!"
Gu Weiwei put down the gun, turned her head and asked, "Director, is there a problem?"
Director Mo Jiao stood up and strode over.
"Chen Qiu, why is your hand shaking when you just picked up the gun?"
"And what was with that positioning just now? It was out of the shot! How could you make such a basic mistake?"
"A member of the underground Communist Party who dares to infiltrate the Kuomintang's intelligence agency will not be afraid of his opponents. You were completely out of character just now!"
...
Because of Fang Yan's mistake and out-of-character performance, a perfectly good scene was ruined. Mo Jiao was displeased and gave Shen Qiu, who played Fang Yan, a severe scolding.
Chu Chen was originally waiting for Gu Weiwei to make a fool of herself, and he even planned how he could hire online trolls to smear her if she messed up her performance.
As a result, after the director yelled "cut," he didn't criticize her; instead, he gave Shen Qiu a severe scolding first.
He stared blankly at director Mo Jiao in the distance, momentarily doubting his own ears.
Misposition?
Out of character?
How could Shen Qiu possibly make such a basic mistake?
Shen Qiu was just stunned by Huo Jing's powerful and sharp aura when she was suddenly bombarded with criticism from the director, leaving her completely bewildered.
When he came to his senses, he was extremely embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Director Mo, I was a little distracted just now."
Director Mo Jiao sighed and gave instructions.
"Adjust your mindset and recreate the scene where Huo Jing walks over and shoots your companion."
To be honest, he felt embarrassed for Shen Qiu himself.
She just suggested that she act out the scene where Huo Jing appears with Mu Weiwei first, saying that she wanted to get to know the actress she had never worked with before.
But having directed so many films, how could he not know that this was simply a way to intimidate people?
He was angry because Mu Weiwei couldn't come to the set for filming, so he granted her wish and called her over to film this scene.
As a result, Mu Weiwei's performance greatly surprised him, while Shen Qiu, who was trying to intimidate her, made mistakes in his positioning and broke character.
As a senior who entered the industry a few years earlier, this is extremely embarrassing.
The male lead, Song Yu, saw Qiao Lin passing by and said with a smile.
"Manager Qiao, the artist you're managing has pretty good acting skills."
Both in terms of looks and acting skills, he was born for the big screen.
Qiao Lin smiled lightly, "You're welcome, this is just standard procedure for my artists."
Shen Qiu proposed filming this scene because he wanted to showcase his artist's acting skills and give her a hard time.
As a result, he was completely dumbfounded when his own artist showed off his skills.
