"The Ruthless Way" is a million-word novel with a rich plot and moving storyline, and the main and supporting characters each have distinct characteristics.
The text volume of one million words means that the movie "Ruthless" is destined to be unable to tell the entire story of the book.
Therefore, the key plots selected for the script written by the author Xianyuan in Wang Chi's hand were only the plots and contents in the novel that best reflected the theme of the whole text.
The script Yan Yongwang received was of "Hua Rongying". Wang Chi liked his female appearance and temperament, and bluntly said that he was very similar to Hua Rongying.
As for why they looked alike, Wang Chi just smiled and said nothing.
Yan Yongwang couldn't understand what he meant. He just thought that maybe he and Hua Rongying looked a bit similar.
I am a female and look very good. When I am not smiling, I look cool and charming, but when I smile, I look like a blooming spring.
He thought that it was probably because this look when he wasn't smiling was more in line with the character of "Hua Rongying".
…
Yan Yongwang only gave Wang Chi more than ten days to arrange his role. Fortunately, his role was not that much, and if everything went well, it could be completed within ten days.
The weather was hot on the set today, and the staff coming and going were sweating.
This is even more true for the actors, because because of their role-playing costumes, they all wear fairy-like robes, the camera eats up their makeup, and the makeup artists apply heavy makeup on them. When it comes to break time, assistants immediately come over with electric fans.
Yan Yongwang didn't have an assistant. He was all alone and looked a little pitiful. But he didn't think so.
On the first day on the set, the necessary tools were not prepared - for example, small stools, small electric fans and the like.
Even during breaks, if you want to drink some cold water, you have to ask the staff to buy it for you.
In the morning, he acted opposite Chen Haohan. In the script, the protagonist Ding Xuance saw the sect's senior sister Hua Rongying at the sect's grand ceremony not long after he entered the sect. He was like countless other cultivators who admired Hua Rongying, and was dazzled by her stunning beauty.
This scene was actually very easy to shoot. Hua Rongying didn't have any lines. He just had to keep a wooden face and glance at his fellow disciples with cold eyes.
What’s time-consuming is that you have to put on makeup when you come to the set early in the morning. The straight male president has put on makeup before, but that was for attending important occasions and media interviews. Even so, the professional makeup team can put very little effort on Yan Yongwang’s face. His facial features are too outstanding. Even if he is busy with work all year round and his sleep time is so strict that it is calculated according to the sub-health standards of adults, his skin is still smooth and flawless. Men’s makeup does not need to focus on eye makeup, as long as the base makeup is clean and the contours are properly contoured. For the professional makeup team of the president, sometimes they don’t even need to contour. Their boss has excellent bone structure and clear contours. He only needs to shave his beard to be a handsome man.
The same is true for Chao Juan's face. The skin and facial features of both men and women are far superior to those of ordinary people.
However, in today's scene, the protagonist Ding Xuance is infatuated with Hua Rongying's beauty, so his makeup needs to be flawless so that he can truly achieve "the falling snow on Emei Mountain is as clear as ice in the distance, and looking back at the bright moon rising from Pengshan Mountain" under the camera.
Yan Yongwang was quite uncomfortable with having the makeup artist hold his face to do his makeup.
In areas that he is not good at, Yan Yongwang adheres to a philosophy: don't speak if you don't understand.
Just like the clothing matching in his home cloakroom, he has no idea about artistic sense or annual fashion. Every month Chen He leads the team to update and match his clothes piece by piece.
The team has already arranged what to wear for each occasion.
It can be said to be a very idiotic and very luxurious combination.
He never asked about these.
Today, he was being led by the makeup artist to do his makeup. Since he didn't understand the bottles and jars on the table, he didn't say anything. He just sat there obediently with a wooden face and his head tilted up.
At the beginning of the makeup, Yan Yongwang felt uncomfortable - he hadn't worn makeup for a long time, and he was quite unaccustomed to it. He couldn't help but open his eyes to look at the makeup artist, and watched the makeup artist blush and whispered: "Baby, don't look at me. Close your eyes, or your hands will shake."
He closed his eyes obediently, and only then did he feel something was wrong: How could it be "sister"? His voice clearly sounded like a man's.
So he secretly opened one eye again. The makeup artist was putting false eyelashes on the other eye and noticed his gaze.
The beauty quietly opened her eyelids, her pupils were brown and gray, and her eyes were slightly bright in the cold light of the dressing room. Her movements were very careful, as if she knew she was not very obedient, she glanced at him, and then quickly closed her eyes.
As if he couldn't see enough, he secretly opened his eyes and took another look.
The makeup artist turned around and applied loose powder under her eyes and couldn't help laughing.
Then the makeup artist "sister" started chatting with the beauty in the voice of a queen.
The beauty was not talkative, but very obedient. She completely trusted his makeup skills and tilted her face up to let him do her makeup.
The makeup artist is nearly 40 years old, but looks very young. She gave a famous flower in the circle, with delicate makeup and a thin waist. He smiled and took advantage of the beauty: "Can you call me sister?"
“I should be older than you.”
The beautiful woman showed some struggle on her face, and then whispered: "Isn't it my brother?"
Makeup artist: "Yeah, but I like boys too. They dress up just like girls. I prefer you to call me sister."
The beautiful lady hesitated and said softly, "Okay...sister."
After saying this, he pursed his lips and refused to speak anymore.
At this moment, the male makeup artist also felt the charm of the beauty.
——Fuck, where did Lao Wang find such a cute beauty? !
After finishing the makeup, he looked at the beauty with satisfaction, holding her face and screaming: "She is so beautiful!"
"Brother Wang! Come and see my baby! Oh my god, how can there be such a beautiful girl!"
Wang Chi was called into the dressing room by Jason in a series of fatal attacks. As soon as he stepped into the room, he saw Jason's eyes full of tears - most men have rich and delicate emotions, and Jason is one of the best.
"Look, look!"
Wang Chi stared at Chao Juan's face and took a deep breath.
He was silent for a moment, then patted Jason on the shoulder and said, "I'll give you a bonus."
Jason murmured quietly: "This kind of face is really a gift from God. I have been in the industry for so many years, and I have never seen a female star who is more suitable for ancient costumes than her."
Yan Yongwang also looked into the mirror and saw a very beautiful and very cold face.
Brown-gray pupils, long and charming eyelashes, red lips and a tilted nose, indifferent eyes, black hair piled high, with a fairy crown on top, a snow-white hairband decorated with gold threads, hanging down long. The person in the mirror looked extremely cold when he didn't smile. He slightly curled his lips. I don't know if it was the makeup, but this time when he smiled, he always had a warm and snowy feeling.
It looks subtly different from the original "Chao Juan", as if a real character has stepped into a world with the background of immortal heroes and cultivation, but there is no sense of incongruity.
Wang Chi also rubbed his face and said with a smile: "Your cooking skills are really amazing. It's worth it that I went to your sister-in-law to ask you to come."
Jason stared at Yan Yongwang for a long time, patted his thigh and asked, "How long has she been filming here?"
Wang Chi: "About ten days and a half months."
Jason took out his phone and sent a message to his apprentice, very calmly: "I have postponed the future work. From now on, I will be responsible for doing her makeup."
Wang Chi was surprised: "...Wow, you..."
After Jason sent the text message, he looked at Yan Yongwang again: "I haven't put on such good makeup in several years."
He hadn't felt such superior bone structure for many years - in the entertainment industry, many artists have good bone structure, and with a little dressing up, they can also be very beautiful.
Jason has done makeup for no less than a thousand artists. He entered the industry when he was only 20 years old, and now he is nearly 40 years old. He can say with certainty that the beauty in front of him has one of the most delicate bone structures he has ever seen.
With her superior bone structure and his amazing makeup skills, the beauty in front of him was completely integrated into the role that Wang Chi needed.
Jason was a little reluctant to let such a beautiful face be ruined by an inexperienced makeup artist.
Wang Chi was naturally happy: the top makeup artist took the initiative to stay in the crew, which was what he wanted. You know, Jason's current price is not something he can easily afford, and many top-tier stars have offered him a sky-high price to work with him. If it weren't for his wife's good relationship with Jason, he wouldn't have asked him to do Chao Juan's makeup today.
It’s settled.
When they came out of the dressing room, both Chen Haohan and Xu Bailing were stunned by Yan Yongwang's face.
Xu Bailing: “……&￥#@#” He was so demented that he couldn’t speak.
Chen Haohan's scenes with "Chao Juan" were almost completed in one take, because Chen Haohan was really fascinated by Yan Yongwang's face.
This was the effect Wang Chi wanted. He looked at the camera with satisfaction at Ding Xuance's obsessed eyes and Hua Rongying's cold gaze. She glanced at the crowd casually with her long eyelashes drooping, like the most gorgeous and coldest white peony on the road to immortality, making countless cultivators restless and anxious, hoping that she would have mercy on them and take a closer look at the mortal world.
…
It was hot, so I finished shooting this scene.
Chen Haohan sat on his small stool with a slightly red face. His assistant handed him some water. He saw Yan Yongwang standing alone under the shade of a tree not far away. He asked his assistant for another bottle of water and wanted to give it to her.
As a result, Xu Bailing was one step ahead.
She carried her small stool, brought a drink, and walked over to Yan Yongwang with shining eyes.
Hand the beautiful girl a small stool and open the bottle cap for her.
Then, try to get closer and talk.
Yan Yong looked at her in a daze. The actress in front of him was his dinner friend from yesterday. He had a good impression of her. He thanked her in a low voice and took the small stool and water she gave him as a token of friendship.
Xu Bailing was a little nervous: "Hello, I added you as a friend yesterday, do you remember?"
Yan Yongwang tilted his head and looked at her, then suddenly realized—it was the woman who had added him from some group chat in his address book yesterday.
He smiled, "I remember you."
Xu Bailing thought, her voice was also very nice.
It was like a handful of snow, cold and cool. But in such hot weather, she felt that such a voice was like spring water, cool and refreshing.
She couldn't help laughing too.
Yan Yongwang looked at her smiling shyly with her lips pursed, and thought to himself, this girl is quite cute.
They had a very friendly and amusing conversation.
Finally, Xu Bailing invited him to take a selfie with her, and asked cautiously: "Do you mind if I post it on WeChat Moments?"
"It's okay, go ahead."
Chen Haohan, who was secretly glancing at two beauties not far away, was really bored. When he was browsing his circle of friends, he saw the latest update posted by Xu Bailing.
The cold beauty with a jade crown and a faint smile on her lips and the silly man Xu Bailing with a sweet smile.
Their cheeks were so close that they were almost touching. Xu Bailing's cheeks were red, and the ear on the side closest to the cold beauty was also red and pink.
She also added a text -
"Wuwu, I got close to a beautiful girl today."
Chen Haohan: ………He also wants to get close to beautiful women.
