Thus, Chen Jinchen's passion and sincerity ultimately earned him only a disdainful look from Luo Jiu.
"Luo Jiu, your performance was impeccable, except..."
Luo Zhe was silent for a moment, seemingly trying to figure out how to describe it. He clenched and unclenched his fist, finally saying with great hesitation:
"To be honest, that long shot of you in the toilet didn't achieve the effect I wanted."
"This is the first time you've had a scene with split personality in this film, and you have to express your two personalities through your eyes."
Your performance is too thin right now; it lacks something... wow factor.
Luo Jiu nodded. She had been thinking about how to portray Xia Xi's personality change since yesterday, and to be honest, she still hadn't figured it out.
Luo Jiu read the script in her hand over and over again, but couldn't get the hang of it at all. At this moment, she was anxiously pulling her hair.
"Don't rush, sweetie, have some hot milk tea."
Luo Jiu took it with a puzzled look, took a sip, and then, somewhat uncertainly, asked:
"This is... a gift from your little fans? Would it be inappropriate for me to drink it?"
Shen Jinchen: "..."
He smiled helplessly, desperately suppressing the urge to pry open Luo Jiu's head and take a look.
Why is she always so clever in places like this? She's adorably silly.
"I went to buy it."
"Ouch."
After drinking a cup of milk tea, Luo Jiu suddenly had a flash of inspiration and grabbed Chen Jinchen's wrist.
"I know how to act now!"
Before Shen Jinchen could react, Luo Jiu had already run a few meters away, pulling Luo Zhe aside and whispering something to him.
He looked at the still-warm milk tea in Zhou's hand and sighed.
Having such an ambitious girlfriend, Shen Jinchen suddenly thought of a very old phrase from the internet—"sweet to the point of sadness."
"Scene 3, Act 2, Action."
In the script, Xia Xi's main personality is that of a well-behaved girl, a model student in the eyes of her teachers.
When she heard that Wu Minghao had cheated on her, she must have felt uneasy and worried, followed by anger.
Girls of this age are often full of fantasies about love, believing that love should be pure and sacred. However, Wu Minghao's actions shattered her heart's fluttering excitement and fantasies.
To create a contrast with his later personality and make him stand out, some details must be added to flesh out the character.
Xia Xi lowered her eyes, but was startled when she heard the two talking. Her large chestnut eyes were filled with disbelief.
She began to tremble, and couldn't help but grab her pants, squeezing them into deep creases.
The full moon rose into the sky, and all around was silent.
Time seemed to stand still for two seconds. The girl's angry eyes suddenly lost their expression and became blank. Her fingers also lost their strength.
When she looked up again, she seemed like a different person; her clean and clear eyes were replaced by arrogance and disdain.
She glanced around, let out a soft "chuck," and slowly stood up. Her slender fingers rested on the slightly yellowed wooden handle. She glanced at it and walked away indifferently, like a noble empress, inspiring admiration.
Luo Zhe is adept at using long takes, which creates a visually stunning and coherent effect in the filmed eyes. However, this also puts the actor's skills to a great test.
Sitting behind the camera, he barely dared to breathe, afraid of disturbing Luo Jiu in the video.
Acting is a profession that God bestows upon us; he understood this a long time ago. But now, he realizes that God's distribution of love is also unequal.
Luo Jiu is a born actress; she was born for this industry.
Luo Zhe's eyes were filled with excitement, and he even forgot to call "cut." Luo Jiu had already walked out of the frame, but he was still in a daze, his hand holding the script trembling uncontrollably.
There's hope for this year's Berlin Film Festival!
"director?"
Luo Jiu walked over, looked at Luo Zhe, and looked confused. What's wrong with this guy?
She gestured to Shen Jinchen beside her with her eyes, and they met his smiling gaze, leaving Luo Jiu confused once again.
"It's okay, you acted very well."
Shen Jinchen pulled Luo Jiu aside and naturally took her hand, their fingers intertwined.
Caught off guard, Luo Jiu was pulled away and glanced back at Luo Zhe twice.
"You just left like that?"
Isn't this a bit too arrogant? The director hasn't even spoken yet...
"He's a theatrical fanatic; he won't be able to process this right away. He's just sitting there anyway, so why don't we..."
Shen Jinchen glanced at Luo Jiu, a strange smile playing on his lips. "Go and rest for a bit."
Luo Jiu: "..."
That's all. That's not what your look just now was supposed to mean.
The valley is always unusually quiet at night.
Without the city's myriad lights and bustling crowds, there is a greater sense of tranquility and peace.
The mountain breeze swept across the valley, bringing the temperature of an autumn night and rustling the leaves, creating a unique atmosphere.
The two walked hand in hand along the valley path, neither of them mentioning going back to the hotel.
Shen Jinchen's coat had already been draped over Luo Jiu's shoulders. Seeing Luo Jiu carrying his things always gave Shen Jinchen a strange sense of satisfaction.
As winter gradually arrives, the cool breeze loses its summer gentleness and gradually brings a biting chill.
Shen Jinchen was unwilling to let go of Luo Jiu's tightly clasped hand, nor did he want to miss this rare opportunity to be alone with her. He reached out and rubbed his shoulder with one hand.
"Are you cold?"
Luo Jiu noticed his subtle movements, and a hint of anxiety flashed in her eyes.
"The weather is a bit unpredictable, don't catch a cold, let's go back quickly."
Before he could take two steps, Shen Jinchen grabbed his wrist.
Wearing only a single garment, Shen Jinchen appeared even more slender and upright under the moonlight, but the way his dark eyes looked at Luo Jiu was so tender that it seemed to drip with water.
"Come here, sweetie."
Luo Jiu seemed to be bewitched by something, and without thinking, she walked in the direction of Chen Jinchen.
And so, Luo Jiu fell into an embrace. An embrace carrying the scent of fresh grass and the aroma of autumn.
The man reached out and affectionately tapped Luo Jiu's nose, saying gently:
"That way, it won't be cold anymore."
Luo Jiu looked up, pouted, and under Shen Jinchen's gaze, unexpectedly bumped her forehead against his chin.
"hiss!"
Shen Jinchen was caught off guard by his girlfriend's unexpected actions and was thus pushed aside.
This is quite different from what I imagined. At this moment, shouldn't my sweet and gentle girlfriend blush, stay in my arms, and whisper sweet nothings?
"I feel like you're taking advantage of me, and I have evidence."
Shen Jinchen: "..."
Luo Jiu watched as Shen Jinchen uttered a few words in a low voice, then pulled her coat tighter and walked away without looking back.
Shen Jinchen stood still and chuckled softly, a smile playing on his lips, before walking toward the beautiful figure.
