Chapter 425 Tailor-made!
At six o'clock on Sunday morning, the alarm clock rang.
Model Jin Lingling woke up suddenly, her head feeling dizzy as if it were filled with lead.
He stumbled into the bathroom and had a handful of ice water splashed on his face, only then did he barely wake up.
Ever since she was lucky enough to be selected in that audition, her modeling career suddenly took off.
That set of photos that went viral made her a hot commodity in food advertisements, and she received constant invitations.
At exactly seven o'clock, Jin Lingling arrived at the dressing room on a film set on time.
When she opened the door, the makeup artist was already waiting there. She sat down obediently and let him paint on her face.
Sister Yang, the agent standing by, watched the makeup process boredly for a while and suddenly spoke.
"The jawline needs to be more prominent."
The makeup artist received the instructions, nodded immediately, and adjusted her hand movements.
Jin Lingling sat in the makeup chair, stealing glances at Sister Yang's expression.
She found that Sister Yang's eyes were sharp, as if she was evaluating the value of a commodity.
And at this moment, Sister Yang was indeed thinking about this problem seriously.
In her opinion, Jin Lingling's appearance is not outstanding in this circle.
When the company first assigned her to the company, Sister Yang was not happy at all. It was so hard to train a newcomer, how could it be easier than training a senior model?
She would rather focus on models who can bring stable income to the company.
But the company's decision was out there, and she couldn't just refuse outright.
So, she originally planned to just find a few faults and send the person back.
But after looking through Jin Lingling's shooting samples, Sister Yang changed her mind.
This girl's unique expressiveness when eating is extremely rare among professional models.
Especially the sense of happiness that comes from the heart is very contagious and so appetizing that even the most popular food bloggers can't compare to it.
"Tie your hair tighter."
Sister Yang took a look and gave another instruction.
After finishing her makeup, Jin Lingling carefully followed Sister Yang to the shooting location.
The corridor was very quiet and only the sound of two people's footsteps could be heard.
Jin Lingling wanted to say something several times. She wanted to express to Sister Yang how much she appreciated this opportunity, and she also wanted to ask her some questions about work.
But every time she saw Sister Yang's serious profile, the words on the tip of her tongue were swallowed back involuntarily.
She was a little scared and her heart was beating fast.
This is also the reason why Jin Lingling was so excited that she almost couldn't sleep last night.
She took a deep breath and told herself that she must seize this hard-won opportunity.
Soon, the two arrived at the shooting site.
The staff were busy adjusting the lights and the scene was bustling with activity. It seemed that it would take some time before the official shooting could begin.
"I've taken a look at your work record. Especially the food commercials. Your performance was really outstanding for the first time."
Sister Yang's tone was flat, without much emotion.
But these words sounded like heavenly music to Jin Lingling's ears.
Her eyes lit up instantly, her tense nerves relaxed instantly, and a surge of joy surged in her heart.
"But last Tuesday"
Sister Yang suddenly changed the subject, her tone becoming serious: "I noticed that your performance in the film has obviously declined a lot."
Jin Lingling's heart suddenly rose to her throat again.
To be honest, she had to admire Sister Yang's sharp vision.
In fact, she has always been clear about this problem in her heart. During the most recent filming, the taste and memory of the buns at the school gate have gradually faded in her mind.
She could feel that she was not in good shape and her expressiveness was far worse than before.
However, none of the clients and photographers I had worked with before raised any objections.
Unexpectedly, Sister Yang could accurately see through her hidden problems just by looking through the films, which shocked Jin Lingling deeply.
This kind of super insight is really terrifying.
"Director Xu this time is well-known in the industry for his extremely high demands on the models' expressiveness."
"If you can't quickly rediscover the excellent form you initially displayed, it will be difficult to meet his exacting standards and satisfy him."
Sister Yang put the script on the table and said lightly.
Jin Lingling took the script and took a look.
The plot is simple and straightforward: a female employee played by Jin Lingling was presenting a PPT in the conference room, but she slipped and clicked on a funny selfie of herself drinking a drink.
Everyone in the conference room was stunned.
Just when the female employee was so embarrassed that she was digging her toes into the ground, drinks suddenly fell from the sky and everyone enjoyed the delicious taste. The slogan "XX sparkling drink, enjoy the coolness anytime, anywhere" sounded at the right time.
Jin Lingling: ...
How can I make it taste good, but also be embarrassing and socially awkward? I'm not a professional actor.
But then, Jin Lingling's mind suddenly flashed back to that Friday. She had chased after Boss Su in his doll costume, the delicious grass jelly, the customers trying to hold back their laughter while waiting in line, the eye-catching lines on the whiteboard, and her own embarrassment in reciting them...
Oh my god!
This script is simply... tailor-made for her!
The coincidence of this incident is really outrageous.
All the performance problems that were originally beyond our grasp were now easily solved.
The immense pressure in her heart suddenly dissipated. Jin Lingling took a deep breath and suddenly said with high morale, "Don't worry! I'm fully prepared! I'll do my best!"
When Sister Yang heard her words, she couldn't help but be a little surprised, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes.
"I'm looking forward to your performance."
Sister Yang nodded slightly.
Just then, the stagehand came running over and said, "The director said we can start filming."
When Jin Lingling heard this, she didn't have time to say anything else. She immediately set off and followed the crew to the shooting area.
At the shooting location, a rectangular conference table was placed in the middle, surrounded by black office chairs.
The assistant director was standing among the extras, patiently explaining the movements to them.
Seeing Jin Lingling coming over, the assistant director immediately stopped what he was doing and raised his hand to signal her to stand in the designated position next to the projector.
"Let's rehearse the process twice first."
The assistant director pointed toward the computer and the screen and explained in detail, "Start operating the computer from here. When you look up at the screen, make an expression of surprise and embarrassment."
"Remember, the photos will be added later, so during the filming, your eyes must be fixed firmly on the upper center of the screen."
Jin Lingling listened attentively and could clearly feel everyone's eyes focused on her.
The lighting technician is now making final preparations, adjusting the angle of the key light.
The strong and dazzling light made her squint unconsciously.
"Quiet!"
The script supervisor held up the clapperboard and walked in front of the camera.
With a "click", Jin Lingling took a deep breath, her fingers hovered above the keyboard, and officially entered the working state.
