Chapter 163 The Male Lead Qi You
Lin Yanzhen also came over: "Teacher Su, I didn't expect that you could memorize such a long line in just a few seconds! Could it be that you have the legendary photographic memory?"
The maid who acted with her had tears in her eyes: "Teacher Su, you, your acting is so good, I really can't help it, woo woo...
How could the scumbag emperor have the heart to treat you like this? This is too much!"
Su Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and quickly said, "How could it be possible to remember everything I saw? I memorized the lines a few days ago, and I reinforced them a few times when I was putting on makeup today, so I can remember them. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to remember them so quickly."
She only said that she memorized the lines, not that she actually memorized all the lines. Yes, including other people's lines.
This helps her understand the role and the script, so Su Qing has always maintained this habit.
The others gasped when they heard this. Although it was their first time acting, they had heard that many actors could hardly even read the script from beginning to end, let alone memorize their lines.
This resource guy seems a little different.
Lin Yanzhen asked her to add a few more shots and then started the next one.
Throughout the whole day, except for the occasional supporting role that had to be re-cast, Su Qing's scenes were basically performed in one take.
This kind of role does not have profound connotations, and given the nature of the crew, the acting requirements are actually not very high.
However, on the first day, Su Qing brought people into the play with her acting skills, and unknowingly, Lin Yanzhen's requirements were raised a lot.
A week later, Su Qing's solo scene was finally finished, and the male lead Qi You finally appeared on the crew.
Unlike Su Qing who is low-key, Qi You is very flamboyant as soon as he appears.
He brought five or six bodyguards and two assistants with him, as if he was afraid that others didn't know that he was a big star.
He tilted his head back and let his assistant stand on tiptoe to help him take off his mask. He nodded to everyone with contempt: "It's this late. If you want to take pictures, hurry up. I have a dinner date at twelve o'clock and I have to leave at eleven-thirty."
At this time, it was already 11 o'clock in the morning. If he had come a little later, the crew would have finished filming.
People can't stand comparison, especially Su Qing and Qi You, who are both well-resourced. Su Qing has been easy-going these days and has no airs. Plus, her acting skills are good, so everyone likes her.
The male lead, who had been delayed for a week before joining the crew, behaved like this, which made Lin Yanzhen completely angry.
"If you don't want to act, don't act. Look at what time it is now. It will be twelve o'clock by the time you finish putting on your makeup."
The other people's faces didn't look very good either.
Upon seeing this, the agent hurriedly trotted over to Lin Yanzhen, bowed and apologized: "Director Lin, I'm really sorry, our Qi You got up at 8 o'clock, but there was a traffic jam on the road, so he was delayed until now, please calm down, calm down.
We must arrive early in the afternoon and make sure not to delay the crew's time."
After that, he said to his assistant, "Go buy a few cups of milk tea. Remember to make it hot. The weather has cooled down recently. Drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up."
The last sentence was directed to Lin Yanzhen again.
Lin Yanzhen glanced at him, thought of the hundreds of thousands of dollars of investment, closed her eyes, and forced herself to suppress the anger in her heart.
A few seconds later, Lin Yanzhen opened her eyes and pointed at Qi You with a cold face: "Let me make it clear first, this is the last time. If it happens again, I will replace him even if I withdraw my investment."
Qi You was humiliated by him so much that his face immediately turned very ugly. He snorted coldly and turned away.
Lin Yanzhen didn't care about him and made up her mind that if he behaved like this again in the afternoon, she would definitely replace him.
It was not until the last person left that the teasing sounds were heard around.
"Hey, don't you think his face looks a little strange?" A voice came over in a low voice.
Su Qing recognized that this was the girl who played her personal maid, named Zhu Anran, who was as lively and cheerful as Dong Huimin.
"Be careful with your words." Dong Huimin said helplessly.
Although she also thought that this person looked a little strange.
The man had a small V-face with a pointed chin pointing straight to the ground and a pair of big eyes that blinked, full of traces of artificiality.
This is also the reason why Lin Yanzhen was so angry. This person looks like this, but the photos he sent need to beautify them. He really can't understand it.
"What's so confusing about this?" Hearing his doubts, Dong Huimin smiled and said, "Just tell me, is he better looking in person, or is he better looking in the photos after retouching?"
Lin Yanzhen's face turned red and white, and finally he said, "Look closely at this face, it's all cruel. Do we really have to decide the winner?"
Dong Huimin finally couldn't help laughing out loud: "If you can talk, just say more. Haha..."
In the end, Lin Yanzhen still failed to replace the person as she wished. In the afternoon, Qi You arrived very timely, almost arriving at the scene at the last minute.
Accompanying him was the financier who invested 800,000 yuan in the crew.
Lin Yanzhen glanced at the time and his face looked unhappy, but he still went to meet him.
Although it costs tens or even hundreds of millions to shoot a drama nowadays, for their low-budget productions, a few million is enough.
This person invested 800,000 yuan and barely filled the last hole in the crew.
The sponsor’s surname was Cao, but Lin Yanzhen didn’t know his exact name, so she just followed everyone else and called him Boss Cao.
"Boss Cao, what brings you here today?" Lin Yanzhen controlled his emotions and greeted him with a smile.
"Xiao Lin, don't be so serious. I heard Qi You said that you got angry at him this morning?" Boss Cao said with a forced smile without extending his hand.
Lin Yanzhen's face froze, and he thought to himself, it turned out to be because of this matter.
He took a deep breath and explained: "Boss Cao, listen to me, we agreed before..."
"Okay, there's nothing more to say. I came here today just to tell you that Qi You is mine.
I understand that young people are full of energy and sometimes speak without thinking.
So, I'm only warning you this time. If it happens again, I won't be so easy to deal with." Boss Cao sneered and put his arm around Qi You's waist.
Qi You raised his head slightly and looked at everyone with a hint of pride.
Lin Yanzhen was so angry that he could not stand it, but Dong Huimin immediately shook his hand.
"Don't be impulsive." Dong Huimin said silently.
Lin Yanzhen took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and nodded slowly: "Thank you, Boss Cao, for your advice."
Boss Cao then smiled with satisfaction: "I hope you really understand my good intentions."
At this time, Su Qing walked over and saw everyone gathered in front of the crew, looking at each other in a state of confrontation. She felt very strange.
"What's going on? Why don't you go in?" she asked in confusion.
