The blacklisting of a promising newcomer was carried out while Shen Wenran was still asleep.
In addition, the drama she signed on for started filming just a few days later, so she didn't have time to pay attention to it.
As the villain in the drama, she naturally has to play her part in the plot.
Sure enough, on the very day she started filming her new drama, Shen Wenran once again became a trending topic.
This time, the reason for trending on social media is still related to the character.
Shen Wenran didn't know what was going on either, or maybe the director and she were just too compatible according to their birth charts.
Because after the opening ceremony, the official character photos were also released.
The male and female leads are naturally handsome and beautiful, but what's strange is that she, an 18th-tier actress who has been out of the entertainment industry for three years and is now remembered by netizens only because of a tiny bit of scandal, is also in the same frame as the male and female leads.
Moreover, the poster area is quite large.
Netizens were outraged, unanimously declaring that she must be being kept by a powerful patron and had brought her own funding to the project.
The rumors even intensified, with some claiming that the script had been completely altered, and the male and female leads' scenes had been drastically cut. It was said that the bald investor had forcibly used money to promote her debut.
Some even say that she played this villainous role, but in the end, she will be redeemed through added scenes, becoming a tragic and beautiful character whose fate is left unfulfilled.
Seeing the conflicting opinions, Shen Wenran felt that even if she had a mouth full of words, she still couldn't explain it clearly.
Moreover, the story was told in great detail and with great accuracy.
Let alone netizens, when she first received the script and signed the contract, she had a feeling that she had been spotted by a director or investor who wanted to promote her to stardom.
This led her to go over her scenes from those episodes again right before going on stage.
She hasn't changed; she's still the villainous cannon fodder who's utterly wicked from the moment she appears.
The director called out to her, "Shen Wenran, it's your turn."
Upon hearing this, Shen Wenran happily went to greet him.
She excels at playing villains.
Be ruthless in your actions, and have a fierce look in your eyes.
In the first scene, she played a character who, on the orders of the biggest villain, killed the female lead's entire family, and in the end, she didn't even spare a three-year-old child.
With fierce and bloodthirsty eyes and an imposing aura, he can film scenes in one take.
Even the director was stunned by the scale of the event.
So Shen Wenran quickly began the second scene.
The second scene involved her being arrested and even slapped, just to get her to reveal who had ordered her to do it.
When Shen Wenran saw Shen Ruoyi suddenly appear in front of him during their rehearsal, he knew something was wrong.
At this moment, she lowered her voice and questioned her, "What are you doing here?"
Shen Ruoyi said innocently, "Of course I was chosen by the director. My sister said I was sponging off my parents. When I was looking for a job, I saw an audition and just thought I'd do it for fun. Who knew I'd be chosen?"
"Sister, let's hurry up and film the movie."
Shen Wenran always felt that this matter was not so simple.
She didn't believe it was a coincidence; it was clearly this woman's deliberate act.
Soon, it was Shen Wenran and Shen Ruoyi's turn to act.
The director came up, patted her on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "This is Shen Ruoyi, the eldest daughter of the Shen family. This is her first time acting, so please be patient with her."
Miss Shen?
Oh right, although she was found and brought back to the Shen family before, because the original owner of this body was so reckless, the Shen family did not publicly announce that she was the real eldest daughter of the Shen family.
Therefore, the only person the outside world knows about is Shen Ruoyi, the eldest daughter of the Shen family.
She glanced at Shen Ruoyi and smiled at the director: "Director, don't worry, I'm a professional at acting, I'll definitely cooperate."
Little did anyone know, Shen Ruoyi was yelled "cut" by the director as soon as she uttered her first line.
The director waved his hand and said, "No, no, you used too much force just now. Remember, the other person is the villain. You captured her to avenge your best friend."
Shen Ruoyi was stunned, then nodded repeatedly.
However, problems arose again the second time.
Seeing that there was no point in her just waiting, Shen Wenran simply grabbed a handful of melon seeds and sat down to watch.
Several groups of actors only had one line in a scene, and the director had to personally go up and give them guidance before they could barely get it right.
Shen Wenran laughed until her stomach hurt. Shen Ruoyi didn't get in through connections; she wrote her name backwards.
Finally, it was the second group's turn. This time, it was a scene where she was tied up and then slapped by Shen Ruoyi.
The staff member who tied the rope for her was a young man. He was very gentle when tying the rope for her, and kept asking her if it was too tight.
Shen Wenran has always been gentle towards gentle and handsome men.
In the end, the boy blushed and instead of tying the rope, he stuffed it into her hand.
Shen Ruoyi looked smug and showed no shame whatsoever for what had just happened.
The director yelled "Action!" and the scene began.
Ruoyi, with a smug smile, raised her hand towards her.
However, before she could even slap him, Shen Wenran grabbed her wrist.
Then, with lightning speed, he slapped Shen Ruoyi across the face.
"Smack!"
The slap was crisp and loud, and everyone present turned their attention to the two people.
Shen Wenran secretly rubbed her numb hands, and Shen Ruoyi wasn't much better off; her cheeks quickly became red and swollen.
But soon, Shen Wenran adopted a serious demeanor and began to lecture.
"Miss Chen, your movements and eyes are all wrong. Did you see clearly what I just demonstrated for you?"
Shen Ruoyi remained silent, covering her swollen cheek with her hand and staring at her with resentment.
As if suddenly realizing something, she looked at her and said, "Oh dear, I was so eager to teach you how to act that I got too into character and slapped you. Miss Chen, are you alright?"
