Chapter 48 Chapter 48 Fight Back
"This one won't work. It can't be used." Jiang Yiyu shook her head.
This is the tenth time, and I still can't get past this long shot of a person walking, shot from bottom to top.
The filming was not going well today, and Jiang Yiyu's face couldn't help but look a little gloomy. Zhou Yu'an, the protagonist of the incident who was stuck in the filming progress, was even more panicked. He walked down the stairs to watch the playback.
"It's okay, it's okay. Don't be so nervous. Take a break." Jiang Yiyun realized that her expression was probably too serious and was putting pressure on the actors. She adjusted her expression and patted Zhou Yu'an's shoulder comfortingly. "We can shoot this scene later. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."
During the intermission, Jiang Yiyu sat down in a chair and pressed her eyebrows wearily.
"That's too much to ask. The sixth time is enough." Tang Ya handed a cup of coffee to Jiang Yiyu.
Jiang Yiyun took it and took a sip: "Where did this come from?"
Tang Ya coughed suggestively: "Then who sent it over?"
Jiang Yiyu sighed deeply.
She left the hotel to start work, and Cheng Shuze stayed in the room. So far, everything was peaceful.
"Although it's not particularly good, I think it's good enough to pass."
Jiang Yiyun shook her head. "Definitely not. How should I put it? This walk didn't give me the domineering feeling I was looking for."
"Not Su enough, do you understand what I mean?"
Tang Ya bit her straw and rewatched the replay. "It's a bit youthful, but it's okay. After all, I still have the nerve to carry it. But there's no way to solve this problem right now. What effect do you want to achieve?"
"Do you think it would be helpful if I find someone to guide him?" After a moment's silence, Jiang Yiyu suddenly had an idea.
"Who are you looking for? I think he's already pretty cool. Is there anyone in the industry who can play a domineering CEO like him..." Tang Ya paused subtly. "You mean a real domineering CEO? Who then?"
"That might not be impossible," Tang Ya thought thoughtfully. After imagining the scene, she actually felt a little bit of anticipation. "Go and convince him quickly. I want to see the real domineering CEO."
"Three, two, one, Action!"
After Wangjiang City fell, the thick smoke blurred everything. The simple plain clothes leaning on the city wall formed a tragic and sharp contrast with the crisp sound of pearls and jade colliding behind her.
Du Yisang walked towards Cheng Shuyi step by step with a proud look on his face.
Du Yisan insisted on adding more scenes, and Director Yan had no choice but to change the character relationships, adding a scene that was not originally included, where the sisters become enemies due to their different positions. In order to round out the story and not let the character's character collapse too much, a special scene was added after Shuyi jumped off the building, showing Du Yisan's loss and helplessness when her family affection was wrapped up in the interests of family and country.
Du Yisang didn't even watch the rest of the scenes. He just knew that he had to take good care of this newcomer in this scene.
"Just borrow a spot, and move the camera." The director gave orders while holding the walkie-talkie.
Du Yisang stood in front of Cheng Shuyi and raised his hand without saying a word.
"Cut. What about the words? Say the words."
Cheng Shuyi had her back to the camera, so she wasn't in the camera's range just now. Seeing Du Yisang looking so eager to teach her a lesson, she couldn't control the expression on her face and rolled her eyes.
"Sorry, Director, please do one more."
Without waiting for the director's instructions, Du Yisang raised her hand again and hit down. The expected crisp slap did not sound, and Cheng Shuyi leaned back to avoid her hand.
"Card."
"Director, I think we should hide for a while in this scene, so that we won't be unable to move when our enemies slap us." Cheng Shuyi turned his head and said calmly to the director.
Director Yan tutted his words, a headache coming on. "Dodging will definitely make it more natural. How about this? You dodge first, and Du Yisang will hit you the second time. The camera will shoot it out of position. Hurry, hurry."
Du Yisang was so furious that her head was already rising to the top of her head. Did this woman dare to give her a hard time just because she was hooking up with Mr. Cheng? She would not be able to swallow her anger until she was completely convinced today.
During this shoot, Du Yisang did not hold back at all. After Cheng Shuyi dodged his first attack, he immediately swung his other hand with full strength.
An Xi, who was watching nearby, felt a jolt in her heart.
Although the director mentioned a substitution, Du Yisang's slap was obvious. If it had been real, Shuyi would have been disfigured. This kind of bullying is common in the entertainment industry. Because they have connections and resources, they can act tyrannically without anyone saying anything. Just like this added scene, anyone with a discerning eye could see Du Yisang's intentions, but no one spoke out. Even the director, unable to dissuade Du Yisang from insisting, had to turn a blind eye. As long as it didn't become a big deal, what young actor hasn't suffered in their youth?
An Xi's heart was in a knot.
As expected, a particularly crisp slapping sound was heard, which made people feel a pain on their faces, but then an unexpected and sharp voice was heard.
Du Yisang: “You!”
Cheng Shuyi, who should have been slapped, showed no trace of it on her face, her expression calm. Conversely, Du Yisang, adorned with jewels, clutched her right cheek tightly, the other half of her beautiful face distorted.
"Muyao, do you think you won?"
Mu Yao is the name of the character played by Du Yisang. Cheng Shuyi, an unknown 18th-tier actress, slapped a new and popular young actress with a strong background, and she is still acting.
Everyone on the set was dumbfounded, and Director Yan was also a little confused. However, the incredible and angry expression on Du Yisang's face, which looked like he was about to go crazy, was more real than when he was acting and he couldn't do it no matter how much he taught him.
How could he miss such a shot? Director Yan reacted instantly and directed, "Close-up, face-to-face."
Du Yisang is really going crazy. She has had a smooth journey since she was a child. She became a big star as soon as she entered the circle. She is the only one who beats others, and she has never suffered any loss. How dare she, how dare this woman hit her.
Du Yisang forgot all about the filming going on on the set. She covered her face with one hand and raised the other to teach the newcomer a lesson. Cheng Shuyi reacted much faster, raising her hand to deliver another resounding slap.
Just kidding, she's a low-key person who just shoots movies for fun in the industry, but that doesn't mean she's easy to bully. She was stepped on the face and still endured it with a good temper. If this scene was in the real drama script, it would be fine. Du Yisang thought she was bullying her by relying on her background. How could she not slap her twice when she approached her face?
Moreover, Du Yisang had even gone out of his way to issue a press release to sue her brother in an attempt to gain power. If Sister Jiang had seen this press release, she would have been displeased and would have argued with her brother again. Although her brother deserved the scolding, Sister Jiang, a fairy on earth, could not afford to lose her beauty for even a moment. Cheng Shuyi had been unhappy with Du Yisang for a long time, and she had slapped him with all her might.
Just now, when Shuyi slapped Du Yisang, everyone on the set was shocked. Now it was completely silent. Even the director felt that things were a little out of control.
The first slap could be attributed to the newcomer being brave and quick to react, and fighting back when bullied, and he could use the excuse of filming to get away with it. But this time, he really broke off relations with Du Yisang. Although the first slap was basically equivalent to a falling out based on Du Yisang's personality, it was still a little different.
"How dare you!" Du Yisang didn't even cover her face, and rushed forward with a ferocious look. Du Yisang's assistant and agent who were watching on the set were startled and immediately rushed forward to stop her. An Xi and other staff members also reacted quickly and followed, separating the two of them to avoid accidents.
"Calm down, calm down, everyone calm down." If the news of a popular young actress beating up an 18th-tier actor on the set was exposed, it would be the end of her. After all, there were so many people on the set, and they would talk a lot. Such sensational news might not be suppressed. It's okay to ban her secretly, but it can't be exposed in public.
For the first time, the manager forcefully grasped Du Yisang's arm and, along with his assistant, forcibly dragged the furious Du Yisang away. Amidst the chaos, Cheng Shuyi, the only one who had caused such a scene, remained remarkably calm, rubbing his palm, which had become numb from overexertion.
It was her first time slapping someone and she was a little inexperienced, so her arm hurt a little from the swing of her hand.
An Xi watched in amazement as Du Yisang was escorted away by his agent and bodyguards. She saw Du Yisang put his hand down just now. Du Yisang's whole face was red. Cheng Shuyi slapped him in the face very symmetrically. It would take several days for the swelling to go down.
After the furious Du Yisang was sent away in a flurry of activity, the set fell eerily quiet for a moment, followed by a burst of whispers after the audience had calmed down in shock.
"Shuyi! Why did you hit her? Don't you know Du Yisang has someone behind her? You've really offended her, and your future is ruined." An Xi was completely panicked after watching Shuyi's counterattack. Now that she's recovered, she's terrified. It only took a word from the big boss to ban the young actor, and Du Yisang was vindictive. After returning home and complaining to her financial sponsor, Mr. Cheng, Shuyi's future in the entertainment industry is over.
"I shouldn't have hit her, I really shouldn't have hit her. I should have endured it. It was just a scene anyway, a slap in the face wouldn't have been a big deal. Now it's over, really over." An Xi squatted down, unable to stop her muttering.
Cheng Shuyi groaned, but patted her and comforted her: "It's okay, don't worry, nothing will happen."
"How can I feel at ease? I told you last time that the person behind her is..." An Xi choked up. She got along well with Shuyi when she came to this group and they could be considered friends. Now her friend's future was ruined by someone else, and she was sad.
"Young man, you're a little impatient." Director Yan asked everyone on the scene to prepare the scenery for the next scene and prohibited any idle talk. He walked over and sighed, "Little girl, what are you going to do now?"
Cheng Shuyi smiled and said, "Director, what do you mean by 'what should I do'? We were just rehearsing a scene. What do you think of my performance in that scene?"
Director Yan glanced at Cheng Shuyi with a strange look. Most newcomers didn't have such courage and confidence. Most people would just swallow their anger when being bullied by unspoken rules. After all, only a few dared to sacrifice their future just to fight for their own survival. However, there were too many hidden talents in this circle. Who knows, whoever you offended might have a powerful backer? Director Yan had some suspicions in his mind.
"Isn't there still a scene of jumping off a building that hasn't been filmed yet? Why not shoot it first so I can finish filming? Otherwise, if there's a commotion on the set, it won't be good for the new movie." Cheng Shuyi was very calm.
"Okay, if you want to finish filming, that's fine, but I can't guarantee that there will be any shots of you in the final film." The director looked at her deeply.
Cheng Shuyi was relaxed and said meaningfully, "Editing is for later. Maybe you won't be troubled by then."
