"Sister Xia, there is no need." Yan Xi softly called out to her and shook her head at her, "We are overseas. Don't cause trouble for others. I think this set is not bad."
She pointed to one of the water-blue dresses. The simple waist design could highlight one's temperament.
"Can this work?" Although Sister Xia was angry, she respected Yan Xi's choice. Furthermore, Yan Xi did this and definitely had her plans!
So Sister Xia waved her hand and let the staff leave.
"The show behind the scenes is not to show off my beauty but to show off my professionalism. If I dress too well, then I will only make people dislike me. I will have to trouble the makeup artist to help me change my hairstyle."
Since Chiang Yumeng wants to be a beautiful peacock, then she will go the opposite way. This is not a red carpet show but just a prop.
Hearing Yan Xi's words, Sister Xia and Chen Yu expressed their agreement.
Before shooting the second segment, Chiang Yumeng was wearing a gorgeous long dress with diamond ornaments on her head. Just this dress alone was gorgeous enough, but it made Jason and the other directors unhappy.
They communicated with each other in English. " What is she wearing? She must be joking."
"No one told her the location of the shooting was outside? Can... can she maintain her stamina with such a high heel? "
Jason shook his head. At this moment, Yan Xi walked over. She was wearing the clothes prepared by the crew and her hair was tied up. Her makeup was clean and natural, and her smile was gentle. She gave off a fresh and beautiful feeling. Compared to Chiang Yumeng who had overdecorated her body, she was like a white and flawless pearl.
The directors nodded slightly and did not say anything else.
Chiang Yumeng thought that she had overshadowed Yan Xi and walked out proudly with her head raised.
Because the shooting location was arranged to be outside, after walking for ten minutes, Chiang Yumeng revealed a tired look. Looking at the scene piled on the ground, she frowned, "Taking pictures here?"
Jason looked at her but he did not answer.
The arrangement for filming had already been sent to them. A professional actor would not ask such a stupid question until now.
"Both of you, get ready. We will give you different scripts. You go through the script first and film the entire process of your speech analysis. After that, change into the costume in the play and act officially once."
"Once?" Chiang Yumeng pursed her lips and revealed a look of displeasure.
The staff shook his head and left.
"What role are you playing?" Chiang Yumeng looked at the script in her hands. The role she was given was actually the female lead's aunt! She did not want to play such an old role.
"Female lead, Sen Ya."
"Let's change!" Chiang Yumeng did not wait for Yan Xi to object. She directly took the script from her hands and walked to the side under the tree to start writing.
Yan Xi smiled indifferently and did not object. When the staff had given them the script earlier, there was already an invisible camera that started filming. Chiang Yumeng probably did not look at the filming arrangements at all and did not know that her bad attitude would be completely recorded.
There were not many words but this role was not easy to grasp. This was an excerpt from the classic movie. Aunt's name was Ruan Yu. For the female lead to be able to be happy, she sacrificed everything and even carried a large amount of debt. When the female lead knew about it, she was very grateful to her and took her back to her side so that she could peacefully spend her later years.
Yan Xi felt that this role was very challenging. When the director said that it would start, she had already completely immersed herself into the role.
The camera turned on. Chiang Yumeng walked out dressed in that outfit. When she saw Yan Xi, there was not the slightest hint of charm in her eyes, "Aunt..."
Yan Xi took two steps forward and vividly portrayed the expression of the person who wanted to speak but wanted to say something. The most important thing was the hesitation in her eyes.
"Sen Ya, why are you here?"
The directors looked at the screen and looked forward to Chiang Yumeng's performance. After all, she was an artiste who was supported by Brilliant Entertainment Company. She would also participate in the competition for the queen of the Golden Spear film. Her strength should not be underestimated.
However...
Chiang Yumeng did not completely enter the role. She even treated Yan Xi as her love rival. When she said the lines, she was very stiff, making the directors frown.
This could also be called acting?
However, it was hard to grasp the character of the female lead. Perhaps Chiang Yumeng had not adjusted herself and they did not stop shooting.
Chiang Yumeng did not notice her own problem and recited the lines in front of the camera. There were still some areas that did not care about the position of the camera and only focused on displaying her beauty...
She was indeed dressed very beautifully but this was an act and not a show. She just stood there and was just a talking vase.
On the other hand, Yan Xi not only showed her character's feelings very well but also added her own experience. Every move she made could move the audience. It made people feel that she was really the character in the play.
What kind of clothes she wore was not important at all. Her eyes perfectly displayed the character's soul.
This was a real actor.
She even controlled her breathing very cleverly. The moment she turned around, tears flowed down her face.
The camera pushed forward and captured Yan Xi's tears. Then, it swiftly shot towards Chiang Yumeng. At this time, she should give an appropriate response. But she was stunned. There was contempt on her face. She found that after the camera captured her, she slowly said the lines.
At this time, the directors' faces were already very ugly.
Jason looked at the script. The next two or three minutes were all Chiang Yumeng's scenes. They were no longer interested in continuing to watch.
The most important thing for actors was not what role they played, but to turn themselves into water and mud to create the souls of the characters in the play. Chiang Yumeng thought that she had chosen a good character role. But she was careless and completely became Yan Xi's foil.
While Chiang Yumeng was saying the lines, Yan Xi kept herself in her own state and did not hesitate at all. When the camera took pictures of her at any time, she was the character in the play: Aunt Ruan Yu.
That kind of expression and expression was vividly portrayed by her.
The few years she did not act did not affect Yan Xi. Instead, it made her performance more realistic and pure.
"Okay, the actor will change his clothes next."
After the directors said this, Yan Xi bowed slightly towards the camera teacher and the directors. She said that she had worked hard and then turned around to take the water from Sister Xia. Chiang Yumeng instantly relaxed and arrogantly waved her fan as she walked towards the lounge.
When they changed their clothes, the camera began to film the directors' evaluation of the actors. Out of cooperation, the directors' bad performance towards Chiang Yumeng was simple. When they evaluated Yan Xi, they were very serious.
"Her performance was beyond my expectations. I look forward to her performance in the future."
"When Yan Xi performed, I seemed to see an elf who fell from the mortal world. She has very high plasticity and uniqueness and can completely devote herself to the role. She is a rare good actor. I believe that her acting path will be further and further away."
It was the first time in the history of the program that an actress could receive such high praise from the directors.
