It was very hot in the studio, especially Jiang Xiyu who was illuminated by two spotlights on the left and right. Coupled with the layers of costumes wrapped around her body, she felt like she was about to smoke.
But the photographer still held the camera and kept giving instructions: "Teacher Jiang, your expression looks a bit stiff. It would be better to be more natural."
"Teacher Jiang, please tidy up your clothes. They look a bit messy."
"Teacher Jiang..."
Jiang Xiyu finally couldn't help but get angry. She was already in a bad mood. Ever since she thought that Lin Ying might really be unhappy with her, she had been racking her brains to think of how to get this man to change his attitude towards her, but... The sound in her ears kept buzzing, making it impossible for her to calm down.
"Just a final makeup photo..."
"Teacher Xu, you are here."
"Teacher Xu, I have a small fan here for you to use."
Jiang Xiyu's voice stopped suddenly, and he suddenly raised his head to look at the figure that was coming from behind.
Even the cameraman who had been chattering in front of her stopped filming and greeted Xu Qingmei respectfully.
Jiang Xiyu couldn't help but lower his eyes, holding back the envy and jealousy in his heart.
God knows how much she wants to be someone like Xu Qingmei. No matter where she goes, she will always receive looks of admiration and love. Whatever she wants, someone will hand it to her with raised hands without having to say it. She must be the heroine when filming, and the finale must be when walking on the red carpet. His fame was at the height of his popularity, and it seemed he would always be there.
But the reality is that she is sitting in front of the spotlight at the moment, but everyone in the studio flocked to greet Xu Qingmei because of her arrival, as if they had all forgotten her existence.
Such an obvious contrast made her feel burning in her heart.
The hands on his knees tightly grasped the costume, grabbing the folds without even realizing it.
Although Jiang Xiyu's eyes were covered by her lowered eyes for just a moment, Xu Qingmei came here because she wanted to see how she fell in love with that person, so she naturally caught such an unwilling look. .
She still had a gentle smile on her face, but underneath she was smiling contemptuously.
That man's vision is getting worse and worse!
However, given Jiang Xiyu's superficial, vain and poorly disguised character, even if he were chosen by that person, he would probably be just a tool.
She really couldn't see how this person could be a threat. His rank was really too low.
Although the person was worse than she imagined, which made her less and less interested, but now that she was here, she still had to do some superficial work.
Xu Qingmei was surrounded and walked up to Jiang Xiyu, "Is this my little disciple of Yuxin?"
"Hello, Teacher Xu," Jiang Xiyu raised his head to look at Xu Qingmei, with complete admiration and joy on his face, "The last time we said goodbye, I didn't expect that one day I would be able to act with you, Teacher Xu. In the future, on the crew, I will also I hope Teacher Xu can give me more advice."
"Last time?" Xu Qingmei had a real look of confusion on her face.
But in Jiang Xiyu's eyes, she held on to the costume a little tighter, "I was walking a little too fast and accidentally bumped into Teacher Xu's arm."
Only then did Xu Qingmei remember, "It's just such a thing, I've forgotten it a long time ago."
This was true. Before she heard the name Jiang Xiyu from that person, she had no impression of such an insignificant little actor, because there was no need to remember it at all.
"Teacher Xu has always had a good temper."
"Yes, someone accidentally spilled water on Teacher Xu before, and Teacher Xu reminded him to be careful when walking."
Jiang Xi said: "..."
She thought she was good at pretending, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her could pretend better than her.
Keep smiling, why is it so hard!
After Xu Qingmei left, the makeup photo shoot continued.
Jiang Xiyu sat there for almost half an hour. When he felt that the skin on his face was about to peel off, he finally heard: "That's it."
"Quick, push me to the lounge, I want a drink of water!"
Lin Ying on the other side also quickly received the final makeup photo from the photographer. She clicked it and looked at it for a moment and frowned, "Didn't Teacher Xu say that this final makeup photo must be taken well and strive for excellence? It took almost an entire morning. Take a picture like this?"
After saying that, he couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "This is it, it's not as good as the one Yu Si took before. I don't know what Xu Qingmei thought about recommending such a person."
But no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to endure the filming.
He couldn't stop Xu Qingmei's decision, but he could still do it without giving Jiang Xiyu any good looks.
Unless Jiang Xiyu’s acting skills surpass those of Yu Si before him!
The makeup photos were taken in the morning and the formal shooting started in the afternoon.
Jiang Xiyu's first scene was opposite Xu Qingmei.
After all, she plays the role of the heroine's apprentice, and the most scenes she plays on the set are opposite the heroine.
When he first came on stage, Jiang Xiyu was quite excited.
She had never thought about being able to film in the same scene as Xu Qingmei before.
This experience will be written into her resume as an actor, which will make her future acting career much smoother.
But after being NGed several times in succession, I listened to Lin Ying's more and more irritable reprimands. He even said, "Your face is as stiff as a stone." After words such as "I can't remember a few words, what's wrong with your brain?" came up, Jiang Xiyu wanted to make Lin Ying die violently on the spot.
This is against her, absolutely against her!
Fortunately, the only thing that comforted her was that Xu Qingmei stayed with her, but there was no trace of impatience on her face. She even helped her talk to Lin Ying, "Director, Xiaoyu has just arrived, and the other actors in the crew still don't recognize her. And now he’s acting directly against me, so he must be nervous.”
If you want to make a fool feel grateful to you, you only need to drive the other person to the point of collapse before releasing his kindness. She couldn't be more skilled at doing this kind of thing!
Lin Ying put down the loudspeaker angrily and said, "Take a 20-minute break before continuing filming."
Jiang Xiyu wasn't sure whether Xu Qingmei, who was speaking for her, was pretending to be generous, but since the other party wanted to appear friendly to her, a junior, then don't blame her for climbing up the ladder.
She couldn't let Lin Ying keep targeting her like this. Since the director was hard to please, it would be a good idea to take this opportunity to get close to Xu Qingmei. Maybe after filming this movie, her relationship with Xu Qingmei would become closer, and she could use Xu Qingmei to receive What about other good scripts?
The two of them sat and stood, smiling tenderly at each other the moment they looked at each other, hiding the calculation in their eyes.

the other side.
Yu Siwo is sitting in the small apartment she bought with a loan in the Imperial Capital, looking through the channels she gained from filming in the past few years to see if there are any jobs suitable for her in the near future.
Although she was openly and secretly threatened to leave the crew of "The Legend of the Fallen City", fortunately, she signed a contract before and received a liquidated damages even if she left.
But it's not her character to just sit back and take things for granted. She also enjoys the process of filming. If there are other opportunities, she would naturally want to try it.
After looking around and not finding anything suitable, she was not in a hurry. After receiving a message from her friend who was also resting at home about a dinner date, she was in a good mood, put on makeup and changed into a dress she liked and went to accept the invitation.
As a result, as soon as the two of them met, they looked into the eyes of their best friend and said, "I said your character can't help me improve. If "The Legend of the Fallen" hadn't posted an update today, I wouldn't have known what Jiang Xiyu had done. Your role is stolen, what's going on? Why is Jiang Xiyu so cute?"
