Chapter 109 - A Girl
I keep looking forward, but you keep using the past me to measure the present me, people will change, I will.
Fortunately, the script wasn't destroyed. I was glad that the director placed a folder outside the script, so I didn't want it to be destroyed.
I'm extremely glad.
Today's filming wasn't too difficult, but one of the lines I thought was more appropriate, so I went to the director for it.
When I went over, and saw Sun Yufei happily chatting with the assistant director, I didn't know when Sun Yufei's relationship with the assistant director would become so good. I had a bad premonition in my heart.
I didn't want to think about it, but I had to think about it. The relationship between Sun Yufei and the assistant director seemed to be a little too intimate.
Lin Xiang, come over quickly. I was just saying to the director that your acting was good, but you better not let me praise you for nothing.
Sun Yufei waved her hand at me. If not for Sun Yufei's expression a moment ago entering my mind, I probably would have believed her words to be true. It's because her eyes were too sincere and it didn't seem like she was acting.
I think that Sun Yufei's acting skills are actually quite good. At least, she appeared twice today, and both times were so different from the norm.
Maybe it was because I was scared by Sun Yufei's two attitudes, or maybe it was just because she was scared by the fickle Sun Yufei, I couldn't think of a suitable explanation.
That was probably it.
"Lin Xiang, come over here quickly. Fei Fei was praising you just now, and looking at your expression, I almost thought you were unsatisfied." The assistant director looked at me with an unpleasant expression.
I think it was because I didn't go there immediately.
Right now, the assistant director's face was rather gloomy.
Perhaps the assistant director only told the director and didn't tell anyone else, so the assistant director didn't know that there was a connection between him and me. If he knew, he would probably act like a hypocritical person even if he was angry.
Actually, compared to being unable to see through their thoughts due to my camouflage, I prefer this kind of assistant director who bluntly shows off their emotions. That way, I can know what I should do based on my emotions.
Towards the assistant director's unsightly gaze, I smiled apologetically, "Assistant director, I'm really sorry. I'm going to look for the director to change the script before coming back to chat with you guys later."
Actually, I had a lot of ways and reasons to reject him, but I chose the stupidest method to offend the assistant director's way of answering.
At that moment, I spoke a bit faster than I could think. I had yet to organize my words properly, and I had already spoken them out loud. It was almost impossible to change them.
Well, anyway, he had already offended someone. In the crew, the assistant director shouldn't be going too far, right?
I thought.
However, everything that happened afterwards completely overturned my current thoughts. Not only would the assistant director go overboard, he would go overboard as well. Of course, this would all come later, let's not talk about it for now.
The assistant director's face darkened, the smile on Sun Yufei's face could not keep up. The sisters looked at her smile and knew that it was fake.
However, after a period of absence, Sun Yufei's mental fortitude had increased by quite a bit. She quickly adjusted herself and tugged at the assistant director beside her.
"Director, since Lin Xiang is busy, we can talk about it after she finishes her work. After all, Lin Xiang is the female lead of this movie, it's only right for her to be busy."
Sun Yufei gave me a certain amount of hate. I know, and I know, but I don't have any other way to deal with it, so I could only allow Sun Yufei to do so.
I felt aggrieved, but even so, I could only feel aggrieved.
Step by step, I walked further and further away. I could hear the assistant director saying angrily that he would not let me off easily. I didn't want to think about whether the assistant director was doing it intentionally or unintentionally.
Sun Yufei's existence now proves that nothing will happen between me and the assistant director. Rather than carefully dealing with it, if I don't know when I will break off all decorum, I might as well start off with a straight face.
This way, I just need to be on guard and not have to think about how to deal with it every day.
I still can't get rid of my innermost laziness.
"Director, please excuse me. I just read the script. I think there's something I need to change."
When I came over, the director was talking to one of the artists and could hear the director's growls.
I'm glad that I studied in the acting department and it wasn't so easy to be a director. Even if you had the funds and ability, you would still be angered by the artists under you every few days.
Like the one in front of me.
"Director, I don't think we should do that. It doesn't reflect the characteristics of my role."
"What are the characteristics of your role? "How?"
"I should be a bit more arrogant. This character is too weak."
"Is this your specialty or your character's specialty?!" You are here to film, not to play your autobiography! "
The director's voice rose a few decibels. Standing behind me, I felt my eardrums hurt. The staff who were working beside the director had already left.
I suddenly understood how the staff showed their sympathy when I told them I was looking for the director.
However, the actor opposite the director was really stubborn. It was just that this request was too unreasonable.
The structure of a character was the least suitable to change. If it was changed so easily, the meaning of the play or the story that was about to be told to the audience would also change.
"Director, I think …"
"What do you think!" Before I could finish my words, the director reflexively shouted. Perhaps realizing that it wasn't the person opposite him who was speaking, the director pinched his forehead and immediately turned around to look at me.
"Lin Xiang, I'm sorry, I thought the little bastard across from me was talking. What's wrong? What's the matter? "
Compared to the director from a moment ago, the director now could be said to be a model of gentleness.
He didn't seem like the same person as the bad-tempered brute from before.
The director treated me well, of course, and I was happy.
"It's this kind of director. I've already seen the script. I feel that there's one part of the script that needs to be changed. The effect would be better if it was changed."
I restated what I had just said.
There was no other way. The director in his rage didn't hear what I said clearly.
"Tell me what needs to be changed. Tell me and I'll take a look." The director's expression turned serious. I know that the director values filming very much. The person in front of me is the real director.
I truly love this industry. As for that assistant director, he just came out and messed around, not knowing anything at all. He even wanted to use his director identity to suppress me.
"Here, I think we can talk more directly. Female doesn't necessarily need those who are weak to be present, we can change it to a more imposing conversation here, and that way, it would also mean that the female lead's eyes are not too bad when it comes to making friends."
When Female saw that his friend was injured, he still went out to save his friend, but he was still too timid and restrained, too fake.
It would give people the feeling that Female was pretty good, that the female lead's eye of discernment was too bad, and that the plastic sister flower was also that bad.
The director looked at the position I was pointing to and frowned, considering the rationality of the changes.
Seeing that the director had been watching for a long time, I knew that there was a high chance that the director would change as I said.
His heart skipped a beat.
Just as I was getting excited, a pair of hands suddenly patted my shoulder.
"Are you the female lead in this movie? I am the Female, I just heard you change your lines. Can you tell me something about the Female? "
I looked at a girl who was familiar with each other, who looked to be around eighteen or nineteen years old. Being able to become a Female at this age was already something that could only be considered a child's gift, it could be said to be very amazing.
However, this girl's way of speaking didn't make people very happy.
"Yes, I am. The director hasn't let up yet, so I can't tell you for now. Sorry."
I don't have the power or the right to speak beyond the director, even if this self-effacing girl is not that annoying.
However, he was rather daring, speaking to the director in such a manner.
"Tsk — I know you don't want to say it."
The girl retracted her hand and stood to one side.
In that case, the corner of my mouth twitched even harder.
