Chapter 302: Bad
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Although Jiang Fei had a gentle personality, he had always been very serious when it came to acting.
When he was young, he was the one who could endure the most hardship in the production team. He even filmed martial arts scenes until he was hospitalized with a fracture. He was also one of the few actors who insisted on not using a substitute for martial arts scenes. He personally appeared in all the dangerous scenes.
Later on, he became famous. The actors Jiang Fei worked with were basically very good. It had been many years since he had interacted with inexperienced young actors.
At this moment, the acting skills of the four people in front of him could only be described as “messy”. He did not know what they were acting at all. Presumably, they themselves were not very clear.
Moreover, after the few of them received the script, it had been so long, but they had not even memorized a few simple lines. They were stumbling over their lines and were seriously forgetting their lines.
The few people in the Leather Drum Opera team also knew that they had messed up, but Jiang Fei did not call for a pause. They could only brace themselves and continue acting.
Every second seemed like an eternity. Erin had never found time so difficult.
She no longer knew what she was playing. She was like a robot whose brain had lost all ability to think.
No, she was not even as good as a robot. At the very least, a robot would definitely be able to remember her lines. At the later stages, she could no longer remember her lines at all. She could only make up her own lines, which was similar to nonsense.
To Jiang Fei, time was also very difficult. Watching such a performance was simply mental torture for him, but he could not shout for a pause. That would definitely severely hurt Lu Rou’s pride.
Jiang Fei recalled the discussion about Lu Rou on the stage. At that time, Shire said that Lu Rou might not have recommended herself because she was thin-skinned. In the end, she was not chosen to be in any team and could only be assigned to the ‘Leather Drum Opera’ team by the directors.
At that time, Han Chi even said, “Why did she come to this show if she wanted to save face?”
Jiang Fei had also heard the discussion between the two directors, but he didn’t know who Lu Rou was at that time, so he didn’t care, He even felt that what the two directors said made sense.
Now, after knowing that Lu Rou might be his daughter, Jiang Fei felt very sad and blamed himself. It was all because of his mistake many years ago that Lu Rou had to come to the entertainment industry to suffer. Now, she had to be criticized for participating in this show.
When Jiang Ning was born, Jiang Fei had no intention of letting Jiang Ning enter the entertainment industry in the future.
Jiang Fei had worked hard in the entertainment industry to take something one step at a time. He knew best how difficult it was to stand out in this industry. He was a talented actor. Acting was not the most difficult thing for him, but this path was still extremely difficult.
This industry was filled with all kinds of infighting and exchange of interests. When you became famous, the pressure you had to bear would only increase exponentially. Therefore, 18 years ago, Jiang Fei had never considered letting his daughter become a celebrity. He only wanted her to grow up happily under his wing.
Jiang Fei could tell that Lu Rou was a very strong-willed and self-respecting person, so she was unwilling to recommend herself.
Objectively speaking, Jiang Fei felt that Lu Rou was not suitable to stay in the entertainment industry. With her mentality, she could not maintain a stable mentality in the entertainment industry. If she encountered a major setback and broke down, she might have psychological problems.
Other than that, Jiang Fei could not tell that Lu Rou had any talent in acting. Her acting mode was still at the lowest stage of using her facial features to convey emotions and information. She could not even control her expression. Sometimes, she used too much strength, but she directly ignored the parts that should be highlighted.
In addition, Lu Rou did not understand the script and characters at all. She did not know how to analyze them at all. To an actor, this was the most disastrous thing. Without this ability, an actor could not be called an actor.
If Lu Rou was someone unrelated to Jiang Fei, Jiang Fei would definitely think that this person was hopeless.
But now, he could only suppress the various emotions in his heart and try his best to find a glimmer of hope in Lu Rou to see if he could find an opportunity to help her.
The long ten minutes finally passed. The four members of the ‘Leather Drum
Opera” team heaved a long sigh of relief. Erin was already sweating profusely. This was not because she was too tired from acting, but because she had already collapsed mentally and her body was in a state of overdraft..
