Outside, the set had been set up, and Director Xu asked someone to call Li Qingning to start filming.
Li Qingning had just put on her makeup and had only read the script a few times, so she hadn't memorized it.
After hearing what Director Xu said, he walked outside and suggested to Director Xu: "Can't you give me a little more time to memorize the lines? If I forget the lines in front of so many people, where will I put my face?"
[Don't worry, you have no face]
You don't need a face
[Teacher Li, don't worry, I will definitely keep this matter secret for you. 】
What is a face? 】
[(Surprised) Teacher Li and Meng Fu still have such a thing as shamelessness? 】
Director Xu looked at Li Qingning with a smile, "Isn't this based on the most realistic scenario? A day in the life of an actor, just in time for your fans to see how you forget your lines day after day on the set, let's get started."
This segment was also a joke that the program crew had agreed on with Director Xu.
...
...
[Actor Lai forgot the lyrics], they even thought of the hot search content on Weibo.
Everyone else looked at Li Qingning with a smile, but Meng Fu patted Li Qingning's shoulders, and as he patted, he called out, "Dad, with my magic weapon, you won't be embarrassed today."
Li Qingning: "Thank you."
Li Qingning's role begins.
This is an ancient literary and artistic emperor strategy drama, in which Li Qingning acts as a counselor.
The clip he is going to shoot on the spot today is a side story written by the screenwriter, which is also similar to a trailer. It has nothing to do with the main drama, except that the lines are long.
After Li Qingning's subordinates finished speaking, Li Qingning had already entered the role. He held the sand table and began to speak his lines, "Emperor Xia has been tyrannical and unjust since the Yuanshen year..."
The production team of "A Day in the Life of a Star" is also making things happen.
The live broadcast screen showed Li Qingning's performance on the left, the script on the right, and a line of words was added in the middle later:
Welcome to Find Faults.
Director Xu stared at the camera, and when Li Qingning finished his first line, he raised his eyebrows.
[Hey, Teacher Li, you remembered it]
As soon as Li Qingning finished his second line, Director Xu stood up.
There were many shots at the scene, and Director Xu's facial expression could not be hidden from the live audience.
When Li Qingning finished the third long line, even Sheng Jun and Che Shao were surprised.
Li Qingning finished the fourth line.
[Teacher Li, you call this a bad memory? ? 】
[Teacher Li, congratulations, you saved your face]
[Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha, I really burst into laughter]
[Director Xu's expression of seeing a ghost is a vivid expression pack]
Director Xu and Li Qingning were face to face. Director Xu said, "...Why don't you remember your lines so quickly when you're acting?"
Li Qingning, "..."
He didn't know why, but he just didn't know whether Director Xu believed it or not.
After all, at his age, Li Qingning knows that he is not as good at memorizing lines as before, and he is a little self-aware, but he just needs to spend more time.
While putting on makeup today, he remembered most of his lines, but based on his past performance, when he spoke they would always miss a few words or the meaning would change.
However, today it was strange that his mind was indeed very clear and his thoughts were very clear. After he said this sentence, the next sentence also clearly floated in his mind.
He was no different today than he had been in the past, the only difference was——
Li Qingning turned to Meng Fu.
Meng Fu was studying the crew's sand table with Che Shao.
Li Qingning never believed in these mysterious things and always thought that Meng Fu's words were just casual remarks. Now he really started to think seriously about it.
Li Qingning turned to the camera and murmured for a moment, "The perfume the child gave me is indeed effective. I have never felt my brain so clear."
Director Xu had been with Li Qingning for such a long time that he naturally knew whether he was joking or not.
After hearing what Li Qingning said, he paused and asked, "Are you serious?"
"Um."
[No, Mr. Li, you can’t say that casually.]
[Oh shit, Teacher Li, is there really such a good thing? Please save the child, he forgets every English word he remembers! 】
[My memory is really bad. The doctor said that I stayed up late for too long. I only knew that staying up late would cause baldness, but I didn’t know that it would also affect memory. I really need this kind of thing! 】
[It's obviously fake at first glance. This kind of perfume does exist in the world, but it is not available to ordinary people. Does the Perfume Association know about it? That's something only the Perfume Association has. There are only a few perfumers in the world who can produce such an effect. It's not something that can be found everywhere. How could Meng Fu have it? It’s obvious that Li Qingning was designed by the program team to attract topics. 】
Backstage of the show "A Day in the Life of a Star".
The director and the program crew were speechless as they saw that there was not only no trending search for "Actor Li Forgot the Lines" on Weibo, but there was a rising trending search for "Meng Fu Perfume".
After a long while, the female assistant director said silently: "She is indeed the most popular person in the program group."
Meng Fu's popularity on the Internet has now surpassed Sheng Jun.
Her fans have skyrocketed from hundreds of thousands at the beginning to nearly 20 million in just three months.
The director glanced at her and brought up the old matter again, "Who said Meng Fu couldn't be in this show?"
Female assistant director: "...Is it okay if I slap you in the face?"
The director sighed and turned to the camera, watching Li Qingning chatting with Director Xu in the live broadcast. "I also want to know, is Teacher Li in a good mood today, or is the perfume Meng Fu gave her really effective?"
"Of course it's fake," the female assistant director said directly, "If there really was such a useful thing, why haven't we heard of it? Meng Fu wouldn't have simply given it to Teacher Li the first time they met."
After hearing what the female assistant director said, the others also felt that it made sense and stopped dwelling on the matter of Meng Fu giving Li Qingning perfume.
**
The fourth episode of "A Day in the Life of a Star" ended in chaos.
Che Shao and Sheng Jun left first, Li Qingning stayed to work with the crew, and Meng Fu also stayed to film the segment of "Xuannv" in Li Qingning's play.
Xuannv is a character that brings back memories in the entire movie.
There are not many lines, but because of the perfect image, it will be more memorable after it is broadcast. If it is filmed well, it will be a classic in this movie.
Li Qingning really put a lot of effort into choosing this role for Meng Fu.
Director Xu had already prepared Xuannv's clothes. Meng Fu went in to change clothes and put on makeup in the dressing room.
She didn't try on makeup, but she had a pretty face. When the makeup artist saw her, he instantly became clear-headed, and a lot of ideas instantly flooded into his mind. He couldn't wait to put makeup on Meng Fu.
Meng Fu's hair was slightly curly, and the makeup artist straightened it slightly before putting it into a bun, leaving the rest of her hair loose.
A hairpin with tassels was inserted in the bun.
Zhao Fan had been waiting by the side. About an hour later, he saw Meng Fu standing up. Zhao Fan subconsciously looked up and said, "Is the makeup done..."
Zhao Fan paused after uttering just two words.
The clothes Meng Fu was wearing were made of white gauze, which looked very fairy-like.
Except for the previous talent show stage, she rarely wears makeup on weekdays. When she filmed the Republican dramas before, most of them were similar to her makeup, which was both charming and seductive, but not delicate.
Today, because we are going to shoot a photo of the perfect Xuannv who recalls the past, the makeup, clothes and hair accessories are not very delicate.
Meng Fu usually looks lazy, and she is even more amazing when she smiles. At this moment, she has restrained her usual inattentiveness, and her brows are tinged with indifference, making her look even more calm and elegant.
Dressed in snow, she is extraordinary and has unparalleled grace.
Zhao Fan usually sees Meng Fu's remarks on Weibo that unified the aesthetic standards of the entertainment industry, but now she has some real understanding of what kind of beauty can be described by such a sentence.
Zhao Fan took out his cell phone, took a few high-definition photos, and sent them to Su Cheng——
[Brother Cheng, look at these photos as a gift for her millions of fans, it’s not bad, right? 】

Outside.
Li Qingning chats with Director Xu.
Li Qingning told Director Xu, "Please keep your temper. If the shot is not good, shoot it twice more. She has not filmed many scenes before, so don't make it difficult for her."
Director Xu glanced at him and was surprised that he was so devoted to Meng Fu: "Okay, okay, I'll try my best. You really worry about her. If you have a chance, please help me ask her if her bottle of perfume really has any miraculous effects."
"Deal." Li Qingning took a sip of water.
As the two were talking, Meng Fu came out.
The character of Xuannv doesn't have many scenes in the movie, but she is indispensable. Director Xu took so long to confirm the role of Xuannv because it is a role that most people really cannot play.
Seeing Meng Fu coming out, he was stunned for a moment, then spoke excitedly: "It's you, Xuannu! Meng Fu, right? I know you have no acting experience, just take your time, don't be anxious, I won't scold you even if you get stuck a hundred times later!"
Meng Fu stretched out her hand and rolled up her sleeves. After hearing this, she paused and said, "Thank you, Director Xu."
Li Qingning drank water, looked at Director Xu, raised his chin, and started to brag, "I'm telling you, my child is very smart. She can remember most of it if you tell her once. She can finish filming this classic scene in an hour, Meng Fu, right?"
Meng Fu: "..."
Director Xu asked the lighting and photography to prepare while looking at Li Qingning in surprise, "An hour? Meng Fu, don't listen to Lao Li, take your time, there's no rush."
The two went to film a play.
Li Qingning coughed and looked at his agent beside him: "Is that about right?"
Beside him, his agent smiled and shook his head: "I know you like Meng Fu, but don't ask too much of her. It's not easy for a child. She's a newcomer, and Director Xu, so she should be able to adapt in two hours."
For a movie like this that's aiming to win awards, Li Qingning would have to shoot each shot five or six times, let alone a newcomer.
Li Qingning was unsure, and while he was talking, he saw Zhao Fan who just came over. He paused and said, "Xiao Zhao, does Meng Fu have any talent in acting?"
Zhao Fan heard this and glanced at Li Qingning, "Teacher Li, we'll have the result soon."
Li Qingning raised an eyebrow and went over to watch Meng Fu shoot this less than three-minute clip.
Fifteen minutes later.
Director Xu turned to Li Qingning stiffly: "One... one hour?"
Li Qingning: “…”
