Chapter 21: Deliberate Troublemaking
Sure enough, just like Xiao Jia said, because of her outstanding appearance, Lin Yuxue was immediately taken by the crew of an urban romance drama, and arranged for her to participate in the filming directly the next day.
Lin Yuxue has never done a part-time job in this area, so she is inevitably a little nervous, but with Xiaojia's encouragement, she still decided to join the crew.
Lin Yuxue played an arrogant and domineering small role, provoking the heroine in this scene and being slapped by the heroine. The director told Lin Yuxue that the slap in this scene will be completed by borrowing the position, and it will not be hurt, and the opportunity to have three lines in a film and television drama for the first time is rare, I hope she can cherish it.
After Lin Yuxue returned to the villa, she practiced seriously for a night, hoping that she could complete it well and live up to this rare opportunity.
When she arrived at the filming site the next day, Lin Yuxue met the actress Lin Lin who played opposite herself in this scene, a new actress who had just become popular because of a period drama some time ago. Lin Lin's appearance is not very outstanding in the entertainment industry, but she is very classical and beautiful, and her appearance in period dramas has also become a little popular. However, Xiao Jia quietly told Lin Yuxue that this Lin Lin is not simple, and there is a powerful financier behind her.
Lin Yuxue didn't care about this, she only focused on her own scenes, and after doing her makeup and hair before filming, she practiced her lines seriously in the dressing room.
Lin Lin arrived at the dressing room when the filming time was almost up, and when she saw Lin Yuxue, she was stunned at first, and when she heard the assistant say that Lin Yuxue was the actor who played opposite her today, Lin Yuxue obviously saw a trace of disdain flashing in her eyes.
"Heh, it's a little beauty with a brilliant face." When passing by Lin Yuxue's side, facing Lin Yuxue, who took the initiative to greet her, Lin Lin taunted unceremoniously, and walked away past her.
Lin Yuxue didn't pay attention to it, seeing that the time was about to come, she arrived at the shooting scene.
The director and the others waited for nearly half an hour, and Lin Lin was late accompanied by his assistant. Because of the financier behind Lin Lin, the director didn't dare to say much, and only signaled everyone to prepare to start filming.
Lin Yuxue was already familiar with the script in advance and quickly entered the role. According to the script, after she finished the second line, Lin Lin would "slap" her in the form of borrowing.
But as soon as Lin Yuxue's first line was finished, Lin Lin raised her hand towards Lin Yuxue's left cheek.
There was a crisp sound in the air, and before Lin Yuxue could react, she felt a hot pain on the left side of her face.
"Stop!" The director behind the camera immediately shouted to stop, and Lin Yuxue realized that she had been slapped firmly by Lin Lin, and suddenly looked at Lin Lin in surprise, but clearly captured the pride in Lin Lin's eyes before she had time to rein.
"Sorry director, I remembered the wrong lines! Do it again! Lin Lin immediately followed up with a chin and took the initiative to "admit the mistake", which immediately made the director unable to say anything, so he had to signal everyone to prepare again.
In the second shooting, Lin Yuxue finished saying two lines completely, but Lin Lin once again raised her hand and slapped Lin Yuxue's left cheek. Lin Yuxue avoided it, but she didn't avoid it completely, and she was still fanned by Lin Lin.
Lin Yuxue felt that Lin Lin's slap seemed to be stronger than the slap just now, even if she didn't hit it head-on, she felt like half of her face was numb.
"Lin Lin! What's going on! The director stood up, his brows furrowed, and his eyes fell on Lin Yuxue's face, which was beginning to become red and swollen.
"Director, listen to me, I remembered the wrong lines for the first time just now, but I found that this slapping action, if you borrow the position to do it, it is too fake, the audience can see at a glance, we can completely use real actions to perform." Lin Lin said coquettishly, and her words seemed to show that she was really just seriously giving her opinions for the sake of this scene being filmed.
But Lin Yuxue clearly saw the smugness in Lin Lin's eyes just now, and she was very sure that Lin Lin did it on purpose.
The director was silent for a moment and said: "This scene can be done with real movements, but the movements should not be too heavy, this shot is not a close-up shot, you just need to take it lightly." Do it again. ”
Hearing the director's words, Lin Yuxue couldn't help frowning.
Does the director agree with Lin Lin's statement that the effect is not good?
However, since Lin Yuxue also knows in her heart that since she has done this part-time job, and she also knows that slapping is indeed the content of the script, then she must take it seriously, at least complete the work in front of her.
As for Lin Lin, who is inexplicably hostile to her, Lin Yuxue only hopes that she can really act according to the director's requirements, and "lightly bring" the slap action.
At the beginning of the third shooting, Lin Yuxue finished the first two lines, and Lin Lin's hand waved down, and the force was so great that Lin Yuxue, who was sitting slightly forward at this time, failed to stabilize her body and fell directly from the chair.
"Stop!!" The director shouted to stop, and immediately asked people to come forward to check on Lin Yuxue's situation.
The staff stepped forward to check and found that Lin Yuxue's left face was high and swollen, and the red five-finger handprint clearly appeared in the place where she was beaten, which was enough to make people realize how powerful Lin Lin's slap was just now.
"Lin Lin, what's the matter with you?" found that Lin Yuxue's situation was worse than he thought, and the director couldn't help it, and questioned Lin Lin loudly.
Lin Yuxue's appearance is something he admires very much, and he is intending to see how expressive she is, but who knows that today Lin Lin is even more in a situation than usual, and he can't shoot a scene with only one minute of footage in an hour, which really makes him feel angry.
"Didn't the director and producer say the same? I hope to see a more real drama, and I'm also for the good of our crew. I didn't control the force just now, let's do it again, it will definitely work. When Lin Lin said this, she moved the producer out and pressed the director alive.
The director knows that Lin Lin has always been domineering in the crew with the money behind her, and she has no newcomer self-knowledge, but the gold owner behind her has strong capital strength, and he can't afford to offend a fourth-tier director at all.
Although the director also felt annoyed, what Lin Lin said seemed to make sense, not to mention that Lin Lin had the power of the gold behind her, if she and Lin Yuxue were bound to offend one of the two, then there was no doubt that he would choose Lin Yuxue, who was new to the city and easy to handle.
Lin Lin saw the director's hesitation in her eyes and glanced at Lin Yuxue defiantly.
"Yuxue, let's do this scene one last time today. Lin Lin, you control the intensity, you don't need to really hit so hard, OK? ”
Lin Lin nodded briskly and looked at Lin Yuxue triumphantly, although there was still a plausible smile on her face, the disdain in her eyes was undoubtedly revealed.
Lin Yuxue clenched her fists and nodded at the director, and at the same time secretly decided in her heart that if Lin Lin made it bad again this time, she would not be able to bear it.
The director glanced at Lin Yuxue deeply with a little gratitude and appreciation, asked the makeup artist to try his best to cover the slap marks on Lin Yuxue's face with makeup, and told Lin Lin to control the strength again before sitting in front of the monitor again.
After the filming started, Lin Yuxue finished her lines seriously, and then put her attention on Lin Lin, seeing that Lin Lin raised her arms high again, she didn't have the slightest intention of restraining herself, so she didn't plan to continue to forbear. Lin Yuxue stretched out her hand and grabbed Lin Lin's wrist before Lin Lin's slap fell, so as to prevent herself from being beaten again.
"You! You don't follow the script! Lin Lin didn't expect Lin Yuxue to dare to resist herself, and her face immediately changed, and her watery eyes suddenly showed a little ruthlessness.
Since she saw Lin Yuxue in the dressing room just now, Lin Lin has been very unhappy. The director found such a girl with outstanding appearance and temperament, although it was just to play a small supporting role and run the show, but how could she Lin Lin tolerate being overwhelmed by any other role in the scene where she was the female number one?
is so messing around like this today, not only because she wants to give Lin Yuxue some color, but also because she is deliberately embarrassing the director.
And even if she did? She was originally brought into the group, who in this crew would not be respectful to her? But Lin Yuxue couldn't stand her slap well, and dared to stop her movements, isn't this openly arguing with her?
At this time, Lin Lin had completely forgotten that Lin Yuxue was slapped a few times by her when she was seriously acting, and she still used the reason of "pursuing realism", which no one dared to believe, and there was no reason to continue to tolerate it.
"Are you not following the script or am I not following the script?" Lin Yuxue was not afraid at all, although the left side of her face was still swollen high, she did not lose to Lin Lin in terms of momentum.
Lin Lin was stunned for a moment, and then became more arrogant: "What if you don't follow the script?" I just like to slap others, I'm happy to fan, how dare you do to me? Lin Lin's gaze swept over Lin Yuxue's face, and then swept over the faces of the other staff present, and the triumphant smile was never put away.
Lin Yuxue clenched her fists, was silent for a moment, and suddenly raised her right hand and slapped it fiercely towards Lin Lin's left cheek.
Lin Lin was stunned by this sudden slap, and even the director and staff froze, completely unexpecting the changes in front of them.
When he came back to his senses, Lin Lin screamed and said angrily: "Lin Yuxue! Don't you want to leave today! ”
When the words fell, several bodyguards who were still standing outside the set glanced at each other, and immediately stood in front of Lin Yuxue, blocking several Lin Lin's assistants who were about to hold Lin Yuxue.
Lin Yuxue was slightly stunned, only to realize that Huo Chiguan had said before that someone was sent to protect her in secret, originally to prevent Lin Weigou from jumping off the wall in a hurry, but she didn't expect it to come in handy now.
