Chapter 42 Joining the Group

Xu Liang watched Xiao Han's performance in silence. Perhaps it should not be called a performance. For a moment, he thought this was something that really happened to her.

The tips of Xu Liang's fingers holding the pen turned white. Originally, Xiao Han was not within his consideration because she only had one work, and that was a costume drama, so it was not useful for reference.

But the investor asked her to give her an audition opportunity. He chose this scene because it requires strict control of emotions. If the emotions are excessive, it will be like a mental illness, and if the emotions are too stable, she will not be able to get into the role.

But Xiao Han gave him such a big surprise that he was so surprised that he decided on the spot to let her play the role.

"My performance is over, thank you everyone!"

After Xiao Han got up from the ground, he smiled at the directors and producers.

"Ms. Xiao, your performance really shocked me. Has this ever happened to you?"

Xu Liang couldn't help but ask. He was really confused. Even he was put into the scene. How amazing must this girl's acting talent be?

But as far as he knew, Xiao Han had only been in the entertainment industry for less than half a year, so he had reason to suspect that Xiao Han had been subjected to domestic violence or bullying.

"No, after I received the script, I carefully studied the role, and then searched a lot of information about domestic violence on the Internet, and made sufficient preparations!"

Xiao Han said this half-truthfully, with a sincere tone.

"Welcome to join our crew! We will discuss the details with your agent!"

Xu Liang smiled and nodded, stood up and shook hands with Xiao Han, and asked her to go home and wait for the crew to notify her of the time to join the group!

Xiao Han nodded when he heard that and walked out of the audition venue with a calm expression.

When she received her audition scene earlier, she had some guesses, because the most outstanding part of this character is not here, but in other shots.

It's just a two or three episode scene, so we must choose a scene that is neither very simple nor very difficult, so that we can see whether the auditioning actor is suitable or not.

This morning she chose a dark-colored dress and didn't wear any makeup. Have you ever seen a woman who has been abused by her husband pay attention to dressing up?

This character is around 30 years old, so her makeup might make her look older and more mature when she appears on screen.

"Come on, go home!"

After Xiao Han left, Lu Shuang and Li Yue came over and without asking what the result was, they escorted him home.

Two days later, Cheng Xu showed up and personally picked her up to go to the crew. As soon as they met, Cheng Xu was in high spirits and seemed to be living a good life recently.

"I thought you had forgotten about me!"

Xiao Han lay in the back seat and spoke lazily. It was not difficult to hear the sarcasm and dissatisfaction in his words.

If this person hadn't shown up, she would have thought that he had become a missing person!

"Hey, I'm going home for a blind date!"

Cheng Xu was in high spirits. It seemed that the person he went on a blind date with liked him very much and everything went smoothly.

He was completely immune to Xiao Han's words. At most, he was a little dissatisfied with his recent irresponsible behavior, but he was not really angry.

"Oh! So that's how it is. It's time for you to get married!"

Xiao Han nodded in understanding, her tone nonchalant. Cheng Xu was already in his thirties, how could he not get married? In her previous life, she would have been a mother-in-law at this age!

Come to think of it, she didn't seem to notice that it was time for her to find a partner!

In that era, a 22-year-old would be called an old clam.

"You are not young anymore, but, my dear, you are in the rising stage of your career, so please don't do anything reckless!"

Cheng Xu nodded in agreement, and suddenly the topic turned to Xiao Han, leaving her confused.

Of course she knew that she was in the rising period of her career, but she was nowhere to be seen, so where could she go?

Don't be so funny!

After arriving at the crew, Xiao Han was still holding an electric fan, and Li Yue followed behind happily carrying a small stool.

"Our protagonist is here. Makeup artists, hurry up and take people to do their makeup. Costume designers, hurry up and get moving."

Xu Liang looked at the person who walked towards him in small steps. Without the seriousness that he had when they first met, he smiled and started shouting at the group of people in the field.

Now when he saw Xiao Han, it was like seeing a treasure. There was no way he would yell at her with a cold face.

This drama is being filmed and released at the same time, so Xiao Han's scenes must be shot within half a month. No, from Xu Liang's perspective, if Xiao Han can do it in one take, it might be finished in less than half a month!

In addition to filming Xiao Han's scenes, they were also rushing to shoot the next scenes. It was not urgent, but it was also a bit urgent. The entire crew was proceeding in an orderly manner.

There weren't many scenes every day, just two or three, so Xiao Han felt like he was just here to have fun when he came to the crew, visiting here and standing guard there.

After changing her clothes and following the makeup artist to the dressing room, Xiao Han closed her eyes and waited obediently for the makeup artist to apply makeup on her face.

"Sister Han, your skin is so good, how do you maintain it?"

The makeup artist knew she was a fan of Han as soon as she opened her mouth. She took a closer look and felt that her idol was even more beautiful, with skin so white that it was translucent and even her pores were invisible.

"Go to bed early, get up early, drink plenty of water, and exercise with fruits is essential!"

Xiao Han started by uttering a sentence, which sounded quite rhyming.

The makeup artist chuckled, hummed, and applied some foundation on her hands to mix the colors.

After Xiao Han's face absorbed the lotion, they began to put makeup on her.

In this scene, the character played by Xiao Han goes to the street to buy vegetables and then listens to gossip on the street.

"All right!"

After a while, the makeup artist stopped what he was doing and said something softly.

Woke up the sleepy Xiao Han.

"She looks more than a year older, right? Your makeup skills are amazing!"

The person in the mirror had messy, dry and yellow hair, and looked malnourished. His face was sallow, and he still had dark circles and bags under his eyes. His eyebrows were only slightly raised, and even the shape of his eyebrows was very light.

She looked like a yellow-faced woman. Xiao Han also noticed that there was a circle of bruises on her neck, and some spots of paint on the sternum from the collarbone down.

I was immediately filled with awe. No wonder foreigners call Asia witchcraft.

The character she played was called Xu Fen, a woman who was a victim of domestic violence.

So there is absolutely no problem with this kind of makeup.

"Hey, this is a routine operation!"

The makeup artist smiled embarrassedly and raised her hand to push down Xiao Han's thumbs-up.

Send her out.

After starting to shoot.

Xiao Han was on the street, holding a bunch of vegetables in his hands, standing in front of a cabbage stall and bargaining with the lady selling the vegetables.

He performed the demeanor of an ordinary citizen vividly. In her previous life, she had the honor of seeing that face when she followed the mansion's steward out of the house to purchase items.

Learn it vividly.

"Auntie, I've never seen you sell vegetables like this. Look, I bought so much for you, shouldn't you give me less?"

She stood there, speaking sweet words, struggling with the aunt, and finally succeeded in getting it.

He slowly left in the aunt's resentful eyes.

A group of people gathered together in the crowd, and no one knew what they were discussing. Xu Fen was a little curious and squeezed in to listen.

Only when she went out to buy groceries did she feel that this was the world. She felt short of breath all the time when she stayed at home.

After sending her children to school in the morning, she usually goes to the vegetable market.

"Oh, that little kid had to play with detergent instead of something else. Now the old lady got up to go to the bathroom and fell to the ground with a ping."

"What happened next?"

"Later he was sent to the hospital, and I don't know if he's okay!"

"Oh, what a sin!"

"Who says it's not true? If you put too much detergent, you'll have to break the dishes, let alone put them on the floor tiles!"

"Hey, I have to go home and cook dinner. My grandson will be home from school at noon!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

Xu Fen carried the vegetables and followed the crowd, slowly returning home.

"Crack!"

Xu Liang waved a fan, raised the loudspeaker and shouted something. The scene was set up and they were filming in a shabby small residential building.

Some of them were extras pulled from the streets, and some were ordinary people.

But we have to say that ordinary people also have a talent for acting!

Take that gossip for example, it is really true.

Xiao Han's performance is also amazing. A rich second-generation girl can act out the small movements of the lower-class people as if they were real, which shows that she has put a lot of effort into her acting skills.

After winning the bargain with the auntie, the pride in her eyes, the curiosity about gossip, and the sense of reality of squeezing into the crowd.

It makes people applaud and praise it.

"Next one! Start!"

Xiao Han touched up her makeup, drank some water, and continued to shoot.

Xu Fen stood downstairs and hesitated. She didn't dare to go upstairs. Her drunk husband must be at home, waiting for her to cook!
