Chu Yue's emotions suddenly became excited.
Jiang Jingyu looked in the direction of her finger and was surprised when she saw the familiar makeup.
"Empress Daye?"
Chu Yue nodded sharply: "Yeah, yeah! It looks like it to me. Come on, let's take a closer look!"
Chu Yue dragged Jiang Jingyu towards the studio in front. The Empress of Daye was their favorite novel. When they heard that the film and television rights of this novel had been sold, they were so excited that they stayed up all night.
I have been looking forward to the early release of the TV series, but I didn’t expect to encounter the filming site here!
The two quietly came to one of the crews and smiled at each other after seeing the clothes worn by the crew members.
Sure enough, it was the crew filming Empress of Daye!
For fear of disturbing the filming, the two of them hunched over and stood behind the crew.
"aCtiOn!"
The director sitting in front of the camera waved his hand, and then the two actors in the camera began to play against each other.
When one of the actors spoke, everything was going on normally, but when the other actor spoke, the director directly called out.
"Emotions, pay attention to your emotions! You are going to the border to fight, not to deliver food!"
"Come again!"
After the sound fell, the director waved his hand again, and the two actors in the camera got into the mood one after another.
Just now -
"Kakaka! What happened to you two? Start over!"
Just like this, it stopped, and it took more than a dozen shots in a row to barely achieve the effect the director wanted.
"Who is this director? I haven't seen him before. He looks young but not very young."
Chu Yue put her arm on Jiang Jingyu's shoulders and talked to her in a low voice.
"I haven't heard of him either, but he is a bit fierce, but he is dedicated enough and has a vicious vision."
Chu Yue agreed with her face: "That's true. If you don't have a vicious eye, you won't be interested in the novel Empress of Daye."
The novel "Empress of Daye" is not a hit novel. It is not an exaggeration to say that it has been hidden. The two of them also discovered this treasure novel accidentally. At first, because the novel was not popular, they complained about the lack of discernment of readers. .
Only one director among so many directors discovered this hidden novel. It is self-evident how vicious this director's vision is.
Jiang Jingyu and Chu Yue judged the identities of the characters they played in the novel through the scenes performed by the two actors.
The next scene was one of their favorites when reading the novel. The two simply continued to stand behind the crew, wanting to see who was cast in this scene.
"Let's start the next segment, General Zhu comes on stage."
The director took the walkie-talkie and gave instructions.
"okay!"
Xiao Zhang, a staff member of the crew, responded, and then began to look for the actor to play General Zhu.
"Little General Zhu? Little General Zhu?"
Xiao Zhang searched around but couldn't find the actor who played the role of General Zhu. He became anxious and asked someone when he caught him.
"Have you met General Zhu?"
"No."
"Has any of you seen General Zhu?"
Everyone shook their heads: "I didn't see it."
"Hey, it's time to go on stage soon. Why is the person missing?"
Seeing that no one came into the shot, the director turned to ask about the situation displeased.
"What's going on? Where are the people?"
"Director, General Zhu doesn't seem to be here. I'll call her assistant to ask about the situation!"
Xiao Zhang said and quickly dialed a number.
"Hey, what's going on over there? It's your scene soon. Why haven't you arrived at the studio yet?"
"@#&"
"What did you say? No more acting? Why do you..."
Toot toot.
Before Xiao Zhang finished speaking, the phone was hung up.
He came to the director with his mobile phone and said angrily: "Director, her assistant said that she has received a more suitable role, and the appearance fee is twice as high as ours, so she won't act..."
"No more acting? No, how could they go back on their word at this time!"
"That's right, the characters were all selected by the director before they were finalized. The filming has already started but they have said they won't act. So where can we find an actor who fits the original plot?"
"I think she is deliberately causing problems for us!"
Because the actor who played General Zhu Xiao stopped acting on the spot, the crew instantly became agitated.
Their director is an extremely particular person. He read the novel "The Empress of Daye" three times, and after thoroughly considering the plot and characters in it, he decided to buy the film and television rights.
All actors participating in the film were finalized after being reviewed one by one by the director.
Even for General Zhu Xiao, who is the female number N, it was the director who selected thousands of actors before finally deciding on the candidate.
As long as one person has a temporary accident, their filming work will have to be suspended and they will find suitable actors again.
This is undoubtedly a time-consuming and laborious task.
The director frowned and said solemnly: "Actors who go back on their word will never work together in the future."
"yes!"
"Director, what should we do now? Why don't we push back General Zhu's role first and find someone while filming?"
"Hey, the director has seen all the people who came to audition, and only that actor's image and temperament are more suitable for General Zhu. How easy is it to find another suitable actor?"
Just when everyone was frustrated, a clear voice sounded behind them.
"Director, can you let me try?"
Everyone turned their heads to look for the source of the sound, and finally their eyes fell on Jiang Jingyu, who was walking towards them.
Jiang Jingyu came to the director and repeated what he just said: "Director, can you let me try?"
"The temperament matches, but the appearance is a bit too showy."
The director squinted his eyes to look at her, and then ordered the stylist: "Take her to change clothes and make her appearance more ugly."
Jiang Jingyu was taken to the dressing room. The crew members felt bored and took out their mobile phones to play. Obviously, they did not have high hopes for Jiang Jingyu.
However, when Jiang Jingyu walked out of the dressing room, everyone's eyes widened.
The director who was leaning on the back of his chair slowly sat up straight.
Isn't this exactly what he wants from General Zhu? !
The director immediately became energetic and quickly urged Jiang Jingyu to step in front of the camera to audition.
Since I have read the novel several times, and Jiang Jingyu is a trained actor, her portrayal of emotions is just right, so the director cast her after just one scene.
Jiang Jingyu successfully obtained the script without relying on capital power and signed a contract with the director on the spot.
Chu Yue was happy for her from the bottom of her heart. She wanted to take Jiang Jingyu to have a good meal to celebrate, but Jiang Jingyu refused.
Chu Yue couldn't resist her, so she had to ask the driver to take her back to the villa in Beijing.
When Jiang Jingyu came to the living room holding the script, Ji Yanli was already sitting at the dining table waiting for her.
"Mr. Ji!"
Jiang Jingyu called out excitedly.
Ji Yanli put the book aside and raised his eyes to look at her: "Why are you so happy?"
