The lounge of Joy of Life Wei Yang was eating breakfast when the makeup artist brought Liu Yan, who had just joined the crew for a makeup trial, over.

"Boss Wei, do you think this is ok?"

Wei Yang looked up and saw the hollow black gauze, looming in sight, with a sweet smile and an enchanting figure. The most eye-catching thing was naturally the deep V lace neckline and the domineering visual impact.

"Slippery——"

Wei Yang unconsciously took another big sip of soy milk, and swallowed it with a slightly embarrassed look under Liu Yan's interested eyes. He straightened his expression and looked at his appearance carefully.

"The costume is fine, but the makeup is too fancy. I want an oiran, not a prostitute..."

Wei Yang said a lot, and Liu Yan hurriedly took notes on the makeup and costumes. She looked at him in surprise.

The costumes of "My Love from the Star" and "Eastern Palace" have been praised by many people. The official statement is that Wei Yang personally selected or designed them. Many people praised him for his unique vision and first-class aesthetics.

But Liu Yan was skeptical about this, as the entertainment industry has always liked to exaggerate.

Many times, celebrities will "steal the credit" from the staff behind the scenes in order to get some hype and exposure.

For example, participating in screenwriting, martial arts design, driving, makeup, etc., makes the stars seem very versatile and awesome.

Wei Yang is very young, but he knows everything about acting, producing, screenwriting, and costume design. It is inevitable that there are some doubts, and Liu Yan is one of them.

But after listening to Wei Yang's requirements for various clothing styles today, she knew that she had indeed underestimated Wei Yang. This guy is actually omnipotent.

After Wei Yang made his request, Liu Yan went to try on makeup. Wei Yang looked at her back thoughtfully.

In fact, although Liu Yan is going for the sexy style, her looks and temperament are far from the charming enchantress like Fan Xiaopang, and she can only make up for it with her domineering figure.

However, after just some contact, Wei Yang actually saw another advantage in Liu Yan.

Wife feeling! He remembered that Liu Yan later played the role of a cousin's wife in "Young Marshal". She was smooth but not coquettish, and full of charm.

The character of Si Lili is an oiran on the surface, but a spy of Northern Qi in secret. Wei Yang wondered whether he could explore Liu Yan's other charms in addition to her sexiness in the later stage.

Wei Yang had already started imagining the plot in his mind when he suddenly heard a faint questioning voice from the side.

"Sister Liu Yan has a nice figure, right?"

"Of course, it's big and... that's all."

Wei Yang turned around and saw Liu Shishi who had just come in. He immediately changed his words and expressed himself righteously.

"You know me. I never pay attention to these things. I just analyze her strengths and design her looks from a professional perspective."

Liu Shishi curled her lips, but when she thought back to the majestic scenery she had just seen and glanced at her own, she couldn't help feeling a little sour and envious.

We all grew up eating whole grains, so why is there such a big difference?

"Okay, stop being depressed and eat something. Today we're filming our first meeting."

"Who's depressed?"

Liu Shishi was furious and said unconvincedly: "What's so great about that? Mimi is no worse than her."

That has nothing to do with you!

Wei Yang felt unhappy and a little regretful. He didn't go upstairs with Da Mimi that day, but he should have charged some interest. At least he could have measured the size and made an objective evaluation.

However, in terms of eyewitness estimation, Wei Yang thinks Liu Yan is better...

…

The crew of "Joy of Life" is a fictional drama. One of the great advantages of a fictional drama is that the costumes and props don't have to be so particular.

As long as the plot does not deviate from the plot, the costumes and props can draw on the advantages and elements of any dynasty, namely the Qin, Han, Tang, and Ming dynasties.

Blue Whale is very experienced in this regard, because the equally fictional drama "The East Palace" does the same thing.

Since most of the behind-the-scenes staff are from the same company, the costumes and props of "Joy of Life" are somewhat similar to those of "The East Palace".

However, in order to make a distinction, a lot of new designs were made, especially for the actors who participated in the two dramas, who had to have a new look.

Wei Yang's styling in "Eastern Palace" is that of a handsome young man in the early stage, and gorgeous and majestic in the later stage. Except for some hairstyle designs in the early stage to match the plot of Xizhou, his hair is basically tied up in Li Chao.

Fan Xian's costume in "Joy of Life" is mainly upright and vigorous, and his hairstyle is a high ponytail with a shawl and no bangs.

For Wei Yang, wearing shawls in costume dramas is already the bottom line, and bangs are really beyond his personal tolerance.

In the orthodox ancient times, men rarely had their hair down. Most of them tied their hair up and wore a hat. Having disheveled hair was considered very rude.

When filming a TV show or movie, sometimes you can’t just consider common sense, you also have to consider the character’s recognizability and the aesthetics of the look.

It’s fine for historical dramas, but Wei Yang will turn a blind eye to fictional dramas as long as they are not outrageous.

Wei Yang came out again after changing his clothes. He had clear eyes and a slender figure. He was wearing a light blue heroic suit. He was handsome and elegant.

Even though Liu Shishi had seen Wei Yang's appearance more than once, she couldn't help but stare at him every time.

Liu Shishi likes Wei Yang in ancient costume very much and feels that he has a special charm compared to Wei Yang in modern costume.

She was obsessed with the drama "Eastern Palace" and had a poster of Li Chengyin at home. Now that they are filming "Joy of Life" together, she finally has the opportunity to see Wei Yang in ancient costume every day.

"Okay, stop watching and start filming."

Wei Yang shook her eyes and finally called Liu Shishi back to her senses. She looked at Wei Yang's clothes, blushed, looked around to see if there was anyone around, and asked in a low voice.

"Can I take this costume back home later?"

Wei Yang was stunned and looked at her incredulously: "Okay, you've learned bad things."

"I learned it from bad guys."

"Too."

Wei Yang still understands gender equality: "I'll ask about the costumes later. After the filming of this set of clothes is finished, I will go home with the makeup on."

"Keep your voice down."

Liu Shishi glanced around, then excitedly walked out of the dressing room. Wei Yang looked at himself in the mirror and sighed.

Fortunately, I cheated, otherwise I would be subjected to all kinds of hidden rules every day...

…

Today's filming is of the hero Fan Xian's first arrival in the capital, the first meeting of the hero and heroine, and the appearance of Emperor Qing, which are quite important scenes.

"Joy of Life" has a high investment, a large crew, and several directors, so it was directly divided into two filming crews.

Kong Sheng and Sun Hao were in a group with Zhang Yongxin and Li Muge. The latter's finished product and important roles had to be reviewed and decided by Kong Sheng.

Today's scene was also shot by two groups separately. Kong Sheng shot Emperor Qing, while Zhang and Li were responsible for Wei Yang and Liu Shishi's scenes.

This scene is the appearance of the Chicken Leg Girl, so Wei Yang specially transferred Li Muge to be responsible for the shooting. He is well-known for his skill in photographing beauties.

Wei Yang's requirements are not high. He just wants to capture the purity and beauty of the Chicken Leg Girl, and it would be best if it creates a stunning feeling.

A big mouth above, and running legs to pieces below!

Wei Yang's request sounds simple, but it is actually very difficult to fulfill. Li Muge has been thinking about it for the past two days, and several of his hairs have turned white.

Before shooting today, I took the storyboard and revised it repeatedly, and then communicated with Liu Shishi about the details. It was not until the afternoon that we officially started shooting and had our first meeting.

Wei Yang was eating the tribute fruit from the temple nonchalantly when he suddenly heard some movement under the incense table and immediately lifted the cloth.

Then Wei Yang could take a break for a while and focus on taking close-ups of Liu Shishi.

The Chicken Leg Girl has been ill since childhood and is weak and frail, so her face is pale and she rarely sees outsiders. She hides under the incense table to eat secretly and looks shy.

There was nothing wrong with Liu Shishi’s appearance, and she looked good, but the result of the filming did not give her the feeling they wanted.

Wei Yang pondered over the monitor for a while and finally figured out what went wrong.

Dull eyes!

No matter how beautiful a woman is, if she has empty eyes, she will lack some spirit. Liu Shishi's acting skills have improved in the past two years, but her eye acting has always been a shortcoming.

Zhang Da Huzi's previous guest appearance in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" was widely criticized. Although she was the most beautiful woman in yellow, she was also the blindest woman in yellow.

However, with "Twinkle Twinkle Star" there, not many people questioned her acting skills, they just thought it was a mistake.

This is very normal for actors. Even veteran actors have failed for various reasons.

In the subsequent "Hello, Old Times", the performance was not difficult, and the character of the heroine Yu Zhouzhou was a bit similar to Liu Shishi herself, introverted and quiet, which was almost a half-true-to-life performance.

Wei Yang didn’t watch “Startling by Each Step”, but heard that the performance was good. In Lao Cai’s words, “Shi Shi has finally come to his senses.”

Wei Yang didn't expect that in less than a month, Liu Shishi had blocked the "orifice" again.

The crew paused filming, and Wei Yang pulled Liu Shishi aside to discuss the play. Compared to the "Twinkle, Twinkle Star" back then, Liu Shishi now has experience and can understand Wei Yang's requirements faster and better.

After trying it twice more, the effect was much better than before, but it still couldn't achieve the amazing feeling that Wei Yang wanted.

He was puzzled and couldn't help asking how Liu Shishi performed in "Startling by Each Step". Lao Cai praised her to the sky, and her co-stars Lin Gengxin and Qiao Zhenyu also praised her highly.

"It's okay. I just acted normally in the beginning. But when there were crying and sad scenes later, I went back to watch Twinkle Twinkle Star and recalled how I felt at that time, and put myself in your shoes."

Wei Yang: “…”

Can you still play like this?!

Not to mention, if Liu Shishi's performance in "Twinkle Twinkle Star" was 60% to 70% of its original level, it would be enough to handle "Startling by Each Step".

It seems that I need to give Liu Shishi more tragic themes in the future!

Wei Yang's thoughts drifted away, and then he quickly woke himself up. Liu Shishi was good at crying scenes, but he couldn't let Fan Xian make Liu Shishi cry with one punch.

But having said that, he suddenly remembered that the innocent and naive look of Long Kui when she first appeared in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" was somewhat similar to the chicken leg girl at this moment.

Wei Yang asked Liu Shishi to recall her state at that time, and the latter felt a little distressed.

"I didn't know anything at the time, I just acted, I didn't know what state I was in."

"That's the state of not understanding anything. You're just thinking too much now."

Wei Yang was very sad. He would blush if he looked at him for a few more times at that time, but now people dare to take the initiative to ask him to cosplay.

The girl has grown up...

Liu Shishi couldn't help but step on his foot, but she more or less understood what Wei Yang meant. She ran to the side and thought for a long time, then gestured OK.

The machine was set up, and Liu Shishi lifted her skirt and crawled under the incense table. Wei Yang handed her a chicken leg, and suddenly he had an idea, so he rubbed some oil on her lips and nose with the chicken leg.

The filming started again, and when the drapery was lifted, a beautiful face was looking at the camera in surprise, holding a chicken leg in her hand. As if she had noticed the gaze of the person coming, she pursed her greasy red lips, with a shy expression and watery eyes. She was very charming, like a frightened deer, and people couldn't help but feel pity and admiration for her.

Wei Yang looked at the monitor and clapped his hands happily: "Perfect."

Well, I'll keep this costume too...
