Chapter 635 A Little Pretty
The sky is clear blue and the sun is shining on the earth.
The spring breeze blows around the valley, through the woods, and blows on people, bringing a little chill.
On a remote road, a beautiful girl was walking slowly forward.
But what was a little strange was that she was wearing a pearly white cheongsam with a graceful figure, but on her feet she was wearing a pair of oversized men's Martin boots that did not match her at all, which looked a little weird.
Needless to say, this is Da Tiantian who plays "Si Teng".
At this moment, Gu Wei was following closely behind her.
"Come here." After taking two more steps, Jingtian stopped and said in a cold voice.
"If you have something to say, tell me." Gu Wei took a few quick steps and stood opposite Jing Tian. He walked barefoot on the road, and it was obvious that the men's boots on Da Tiantian's feet were his.
"Who gave you the courage to speak like that?
Tell me, Miss Si Teng, what are your instructions?"
Gu Wei frowned slightly, his heart filled with dissatisfaction, but he still suppressed his temper and took a deep breath.
"Miss Si Teng, what can I do for you?"
Da Tiantian didn't say anything, but stood gracefully with one foot stretched forward.
Gu Wei looked down and realized what was happening. He wanted to attack, but when he thought about the other party's identity as a member of the Kar tribe and their various strange abilities, he decided not to suffer a loss and obediently squatted down to tie Jing Tian's shoelaces.
The camera moves from near to far. Da Tiantian, wearing a cheongsam, stretches out her legs. Her white and slender legs are faintly visible at the slit of her lower body. Gu Wei squats down to tie her shoelaces, giving the impression of a proud princess and a docile boyfriend.
"Cut! Great, this shot is a pass!"
The director's voice was heard, and the staff began to move the filming equipment and change the camera position to prepare for the next shot.
Jingtian listened to the voice, let out a long breath, and relaxed.
The filming of [Sito] did not go very smoothly at the beginning.
Li Muge needed to get used to the new crew and the actors and actresses after taking over. Da Tiantian couldn't find her groove at the beginning of filming, so there were a lot of NGs.
Just for that one shot, Gu Wei and she shot it no less than ten times.
There was no problem with the lines, there were only a few sentences in total, but Jingtian's expression and temperament could never meet Li Muge's requirements, so he could only repeat it over and over again to find the right state.
"I'm sorry, Brother Wei, for making you reshoot with me again and again." Jing Tian looked at Gu Wei embarrassedly, his words full of apology.
"Nothing, it's like this when the crew just starts filming.
It's not just you, everyone from the director to the lighting and photography is working together.
Things will get better and better in the future." Gu Wei comforted softly.
“In fact, I feel that I have a relatively thorough understanding of the character “Si Teng”.
Before filming, I read the script three times.
It’s just that I haven’t been able to grasp the state that the director requires yet.” It can be seen that Jing Tian really attaches great importance to this play.
Even though she had a lot of NGs just now, her dignified demeanor in the cheongsam was obviously the result of training and study.
"What kind of character do you think "Si Teng" should be?"
"Dignified? Elegant? Beautiful?"
“Almost, but not completely.
According to the setting in the script, Si Teng’s core should be strong and wise.
She is a half-demon with abilities that ordinary people cannot match, and she is also very smart, so she often appears to be very calm. Her dignity, elegance and domineering nature are manifestations of her inner strength.
Isn’t there a line in a song that goes, “Sister is the queen, shining with confidence”? Si Teng’s various actions stem from her confidence in herself.
As he spoke, Gu Wei looked at Jing Tian.
“If you want to act well, you have to put yourself into this role, and from now on you are the queen.
And I, Qin Fang, am Miss Si Teng’s loyal manservant.”
After Gu Wei finished speaking, Da Tiantian burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at? This is the character of my character.
According to traditional idol dramas, you are the overbearing president with super abilities and high IQ, and I am the caring assistant who handles the president's daily chores.
It’s just that the genders of our roles are swapped, and we become the queen and her loyal male servant. This is the highlight of the drama [Si Teng]
This is just like the South Korean drama My Sassy Girl, which breaks down gender stereotypes and uses this as a selling point to attract audiences."
Gu Wei's explanation was very logical and Jing Tian understood it.
“I understand the principle, but it is still difficult to put it into practice.
It’s like when I was a kid and just started learning dance, I watched the teacher demonstrate and thought to myself, “So that’s how it is, it looks so simple, but once I did it myself, I realized it was completely different.”
As he spoke, Jing Tian raised his head slightly, looked at Gu Wei with his big watery eyes, and a sweet smile appeared on his face.
"Brother Wei, you will help me, right?"
Gu Wei looked at her helplessly.
"Haven't I been helping you?"
"I'm saying you should help me get into the role. We can try to find the feeling between Si Teng and Qin Fang."
Gu Wei didn't expect that Da Tiantian was so beautiful, and he imagined it to be even more beautiful.
It’s not that he is against the feeling of finding a lover with Jingtian, but his character is set up as a “loyal male servant”.
"Well, I'll try my best, and you have to be attentive too." In the end, he softened his heart and agreed to Da Tiantian.
"Don't worry, I will work very hard!"
Jing Tian was very happy to get Gu Wei's promise, and clenched his fists to cheer himself up.
The filming of "Sito" is progressing day by day. There were some bumps in the first few days, but as time went by, the crew gradually got used to it.
With the help of Gu Wei, Jing Tian's condition is getting better and better. He slowly grasps the essence of the role. Especially in the filming in the past few days, not only did he rarely have NGs, but he also received praise from the director.
However, she became more and more attached to Gu Wei. Except for resting at night, she was almost always around him, filming together, eating together, and looking for Gu Wei to discuss lines and problems encountered during the filming in her free time.
On March 23, Pacific Rim: Uprising was released.
The second installment of this mecha blockbuster, jointly produced by Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures, will be released simultaneously in China and the United States.
The box office performance in China during the first three days was pretty good, earning 410 million yuan, but the box office performance in North America was not ideal, with only 28 million US dollars in the first week.
The investment in Pacific Rim 2 is 150 million US dollars. Judging from the current box office development trend, this movie is bound to lose money, it's just a matter of how much.
"What's wrong? I feel like you haven't been in a good mood these past two days. Is there something on your mind?" After finishing a scene, the two of them went to the side to rest. Gu Wei looked at Jing Tian and asked.
Da Tiantian's costume today is a mint green cheongsam, a mix of new lace and see-through style, which highlights her superior figure.
[Sito] This drama can also be said to be Jingtian’s personal cheongsam show. The crew prepared more than ten sets of cheongsams of different colors and styles for her, but she looks very beautiful in them and is 100% in control.
"Now it seems that Pacific Rim: Uprising is going to lose money again, and the reputation is not very good.
These past two days I’ve been seeing a lot of comments mocking me online.”
Jingtian was feeling a little depressed.
"Hahaha"
As a young 5G surfer, Gu Wei certainly knew what netizens were saying. When he saw Jing Tian’s reaction, he couldn’t help but think of a comment he had read.
"Monsters destroy the Earth, mechas fight monsters, heroes fly mechas, Jingtian saves heroes!
So it is Jingtian who saves the earth! Jingtian who saves humanity! Jingtian who saves the world! Tremble, monsters! Tremble, humans! "
So I couldn't help but laugh.
"You're still laughing." Da Tiantian was annoyed. She thought Gu Wei was laughing at her and turned her head away to act angry.
"Are you angry?" Gu Wei moved his head closer.
"Yes, he's angry, the kind that can't be coaxed." Jingtian tilted his head to the other side again.
"Huh? Tiantian, I see there is something on your face." Gu Wei said in surprise with his eyes turning.
"Really? What is it?" Hearing this, Jingtian quickly took out a small mirror to check if there was any dirt on his face.
Gu Wei suppressed his laughter:
“It’s kind of pretty!”
Da Tiantian finally reacted and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"I think if we play hide-and-seek, I won't be able to find you." Gu Wei continued.
"Why?"
"Because you are so beautiful, even a lantern can hardly illuminate you."
"Puff" Jing Tian couldn't hold it back anymore, and the smile on his face bloomed like a flower.
"Where did you learn all these tricks? They seem to be the cheesy love talk that's all the rage online lately, right?"
"I didn't learn this from the internet. I learned it from Xu Zheng."
"Xu Zheng?" Jing Tian was puzzled.
"Yes, we filmed a movie of his before, which contained these contents." Gu Wei mentioned it but did not intend to explain in depth, and then turned the topic to Jing Tian's movie.
“Actually, you don’t need to feel sad about the poor performance of Pacific Rim 2.
To be honest, in this kind of special effects blockbuster full of Hollywood routines, the actors play a very small role, not to mention that you are not the protagonist.
No matter which actor plays your role, it will not have much impact on the box office.
Pacific Rim 2 is doing pretty well at the domestic box office right now, maybe that’s because of your performance.”
"Really?"
Gu Wei nodded seriously.
"Of course I'm kidding you. Jing Tian's role in Pacific Rim 2 wasn't very important, but the film's domestic box office success had nothing to do with her. It was mainly due to the support of fans of the first film and some viewers who like to watch mechas."
