Chapter 178: Li Xing'er Pa.s.sed Out
After three failed takes, Yi An was so annoyed that he lectured Li Xing'er right in front of the visiting media and fans instead of helping her to maintain her reputation.
Li Xing'er's fans were both concerned and embarra.s.sed, when they saw their own idol being lectured by the director.
Now they themselves were embarra.s.sed too, because they had mocked the supporting role for not being good at acting, but actually it turned out that Li Xing'er was the one who failed the scene takes all the time.
Yi An talked with Li Xing'er for a while and said patiently, “Three minutes, and then one more shot.”
Li Xing'er nodded, took a deep breath and glanced at the fans and the visiting media, some distance away.
She must make this work.
Otherwise her fans would be so disappointed in her!
Having said these words, Yi An went to Gu Weiwei who was getting ready on the rooftop and whispered, “I know you are angry, but could you please calm down a little bit? Otherwise we will never pa.s.s the take.”
“How should I do that?” Gu Weiwei feigned innocence.
Yi An sighed. “Stop playing dumb with me. If you wanted the scene to be acted well, Lin Qingxue would not have failed the take three times.”
She had performed so well that Lin Qingxue just couldn't deal with her at all.
When Lin Qingxue couldn't deal with her, she showed fear and froze in fright, out of instinct.
If this carried on how was he going to proceed with the show?
“You told us that we must show the best of ourselves otherwise you will not be satisfied.” Gu Weiwei said.
Yes she had been doing it on purpose.
Li Xing'er was bragging about her acting skills, right?
Then she would slap her right across her face in front of her own fans and the visiting media.
Then she would not have any s.p.a.ce to claim that she was a skilled actress and write mean comments about her because she was a newcomer.
Yi An waved his hands. “Never mind, just do as you normally do.”
Her acting skill was totally fine, but the problem was that Li Xing'er was not good at acting at all and could not handle her.
That was an important scene and any takes acted casually would not work.
Gu Weiwei went up to the rooftop and watched Li Xing'er, who was getting ready for the performance, as she was fiddling with the sword in her hands.
She chose today to slap her right across her face and she had to accept it.
She must admit that it felt so good when she could embarra.s.s her right in front of her fans.
When every member was ready and the extras were in the right place, the director stressed to Li Xing'er.
“One more shot! Understand what Lin Qingxue is like! She is a talented person who knows everything about the world…”
Li Xing'er nodded and felt that she was in the right mood, so she moved back to the fake rockery, ready for filming.
“Fourth take, scene 237, of the Long Wind!”
All the fighters of the Jin State rushed into the Xuanyuan Group, and had a fierce battle with the disciples.
The cold wind was filled with blood and Tang Shaoqi, who's black clothes moved around in the wind, stared down at this scene of violence.
Suddenly, she saw something moving behind a fake rockery.
She pulled out her sword and lunged at the person that came out of the fake rockery like a flying ghost.
Lin Qingxue defended herself with her sword and encountered a pair of lethal eyes and said with a shaking and quivering voice,
“Who… are you?”
“Cut!” Yi An could not stand it and stopped the filming.
Angered, Li Xing'er glanced at the fans and the visiting media, only a short distance away.
She almost collapsed to the ground and realised she would fail the scene takes, no matter how many times they tried it.
But she could not run away when the director was still there, otherwise she would be considered to be someone that was too arrogant.
If she kept doing the takes and failing them, the media might write some negative articles about her.
She thought for a moment, placed her hands against the fake rockery, closed her eyes and pa.s.sed out as she swayed backwards.
