☆, Chapter 46: No Need for a Stand-in
"Well..." Luo Zhifan expressed his wish tactfully, "This is my first time filming a movie, so I'm afraid I'm a little nervous..."
"There's nothing to hold back. Once you get into the role, you're the character in the play, not yourself. Don't worry." Director Lin reached out and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, since I chose you, I will patiently guide you. I can teach you even if you don't know something."
Having said that, if Luo Zhifan refuses again, he would be ungrateful. As a newcomer, he really has no right to repeatedly refute the director's decision.
Luo Zhifan admitted defeat, lowered his head and sighed silently.
"I don't know how many people want to shoot kissing scenes with me. What are you doing? Are you disgusted?" Chen Zui suddenly came close and asked in a low voice in his ear.
Luo Zhifan quickly raised his head and said, "No, Brother Chen, I..."
"Hmph!" She raised her eyes proudly, turned her head and slapped him on the back of the head, ignoring him.
"Brother Chen, that's really not what I meant." Luo Fan secretly pulled the corner of Chen Zui's clothes.
The two of them were sitting close to each other, and Chenzui's clothes were big, so this action was not conspicuous.
But Chenzui still ignored him and snorted again.
There were too many people in the living room and it was inconvenient to talk, so Luo Zhifan could only withdraw his hand and think of apologizing after returning to the room.
After his reminder, Wen Mianyu suddenly realized something.
Her role not only has kissing scenes, but also two bed scenes.
In a fitting room, the hero and heroine couldn't help themselves and tasted the forbidden fruit.
One scene is set in bed, on the hero and heroine’s wedding night, full of tenderness and sweetness.
Both scenes were added at the request of Director Lin. Wen Mianyu did not object at the time, but just told Director Lin frankly and asked him to find a nude substitute.
It is known to everyone in the industry that Wen Mianyu does not act in passionate scenes.
This has nothing to do with professionalism. She always does the action scenes by herself and has no complaints about rushing the night scenes, but she doesn't shoot bed scenes. She doesn't want to be naked in front of the camera and can't accept close physical contact with people she doesn't like.
We respect Wen Mianyu, an artist who has dedicated herself to art, but not filming sex scenes does not mean that she is not a good actor. She respects others and gives herself freedom.
However, she was the most popular actress at the time, the leading actress and investor, so Director Lin naturally allowed her to have freedom and a stand-in.
But now she has become Su Moli. Some new actors even debuted as stand-ins. Why do they still need a stand-in? This kind of thing is a bit hard to say.
But Wen Mianyu was unwilling to compromise because she thought again that she was the heroine and Lu Congxu was also the hero.
Lu Congxu has never filmed a sex scene!
Men are much more conservative than her. They will blush even when watching a movie. How could they sacrifice themselves for this low-budget movie?
They must have found a nude substitute.
If it was a bed scene with Lu Congxu, Wen Mianyu felt that she might be able to accept it, but she absolutely could not accept it with a nude stand-in.
"Director Lin." Wen Mianyu took the script forward, "I think I have two sex scenes..."
"Yes, that's right." Director Lin looked at her. "What's wrong?"
"I personally can't accept filming this part of the scene. Can you find a nude substitute? I can pay for this part myself." Wen Mianyu said it directly.
Director Lin frowned. "Moli, seeing you so immersed in your acting, I thought you were very conscious. When we make a movie, the body is also a part of the art form. There's nothing shameful about being naked. I still say, when the camera is on, you are the character, not yourself."
"I understand what Director Lin means, but everyone has things they can't accept. I'm fine with other things, but I really can't accept this." Wen Mianyu was helpless and gritted her teeth and brought up Lu Congxu, "Doesn't Mr. Lu also find a stand-in? In that case, why not..."
