Chapter Thirty-Eight: I Can Be Your Stand-In
"Actually, Director Huang, there is no need for a naked replacement here."
I paused, wiped away the cold sweat from my palm, and continued.
"The heroine obviously has two choices here, the emperor asked her to strip in public, or jump from the canal in front of the palace. With the heroine's strong temperament, I don't think she would take off her clothes in public on such an occasion. ”
"Director Huang, you have been filming for so many years, I don't think you don't know which option the audience will buy more, right?"
I finished speaking in one breath, staring at Director Huang with burning eyes.
This is also a step, if he really doesn't want to offend Zhu Xiao, he will definitely go down the steps.
Sure enough, Director Huang almost only paused for two seconds, and quickly reacted.
He slapped his thigh a little excitedly, "yes, isn't this a perfect solution?" ”
When the words fell, Director Huang was about to turn his head to look at Zhou Shen's face, when Ning Xiaoxi broke out violently.
"So, on such a cold day, are you going to let me jump in the ice lake?"
Her face was ugly, probably because she couldn't accept this possibility, and stared at Director Huang fiercely, with an expression that I would never dance.
Director Huang showed an embarrassed expression again, staring at Ning Xiaoxi for a long time, and didn't dare to say anything.
"I can be your stand-in."
I tugged at the corners of my mouth, stared at Ning Xiaoxi coldly, and repeated again.
"I'll help you jump."
She was stunned for a moment, and turned to look at Zhou Shen a little dazed.
Zhou Shen was lighting a cigarette at that time, the sparks between his slender fingers were bright, he turned his face to look at me, his eyes were deep, and he stared at me coldly for a few seconds, and his emotions were inexplicable.
After a long time, he pulled the corners of his mouth very lightly, but he didn't look at Ning Xiaoxi anymore, took a deep breath of cigarette and turned around and left.
"You can see what you do."
Zhou Shen left, and Director Huang was amnesty, and hurriedly stood between me and Ning Xiaoxi, afraid that I would have another conflict with her.
But strangely, Ning Xiaoxi just stared at me with a frown, but didn't say anything after all.
I was dizzy from a high fever, and I can't remember what Director Huang said later.
He waved his hand and asked me to change into the heroine's clothes, and then asked Ning Xiaoxi to sit and wait with a smile on his face, nodding his head, looking tired.
There was silence on the set, as if no one dared to speak.
They must look down on me, and that's normal.
No actor who can play the second female lead will surrender his identity to play a temporary stand-in.
But I can't help myself.
But I didn't think too much about it at that time, and quickly went to change my clothes and came out.
It was really cold that day, and I had a fever again, and my eyes were red from the fever.
Fortunately, when shooting, only the back is shot.
Ning Xiaoxi pursed her lips and sat on the side watching, silent.
I didn't know what she was thinking, so I glanced at her and headed straight for the prop pool.
To be honest, when I jumped, it was more terrifying than ever.
The memories of last night in the icy waters almost wiped me out.
But Director Huang just asked that he must stay in the water for at least a few seconds, otherwise the picture will not look good.
I had no choice but to suppress my almost crazy fear, and crouched down with my arms crossed, and I was completely submerged in the water.
At that moment, tears poured out wildly, and the wounds all over my body were screaming for pain, and I suddenly felt as if I was going to suffocate.
I didn't even hear Director Huang shouting "card".
The field attendants thought I was drowning, and they picked me up in a panic, and I suddenly came back to my senses from that fear, choked on a mouthful of water, and stood there almost coughing up my lungs.
"It's good, Cheng Lan, it's one time!"
Director Huang smiled, motioned to the field staff to quickly bring me a towel, and happily stared at the extension a few more times.
I was stunned, I didn't expect it to pass so quickly this time, I was immediately relieved, and quickly took the towel handed over by the field service to wrap myself and thanked me softly.
The filming has been carried out until now, and Gu Miaomiao has not come yet.
I just felt abnormal, and reluctantly looked up and swept around the set.
"Looking for what?"
Director Huang cautiously looked in the direction of Ning Xiaoxi, and walked over to try to comfort me.
"I'm looking for Gu Miaomiao, this little girl doesn't know why she didn't come to work today."
Huang Dao's footsteps paused, and his expression was obviously stiff.
My heart tightened, "No, it's been fired again?" ”
I'm just taking a vacation, what happened to this little girl?!
Director Huang subconsciously frowned, turned his gaze to Ning Xiaoxi's side, and then approached me softly.
"Isn't it just that I accidentally spoke yesterday and offended Ning Xiaoxi, isn't this ...... I don't dare to let her come anyway, think about Ning Xiaoxi's temper, can Gu Miaomiao withstand it? ”
It's Ning Xiaoxi again?!
I suddenly held back the fire in my heart, but Gu Miaomiao has always been open-mouthed, and I also know this.
Director Huang said a few words to me, and hurriedly took the walkie-talkie and went back to watch the film.
I had no choice but to ask the field attendant, "What did Gu Miaomiao say yesterday?" ”
Only then did I understand that Ning Xiaoxi's trouble for me today was not sudden at all.
She said on the set yesterday that I would do whatever it takes to get on the throne by Zhu Xiao.
Gu Miao was angry, and said a few words to Ning Xiaoxi on the spot.
Her rank, compared to Ning Xiaoxi's gold, that girl is more than bronze.
I don't even have to guess, and I know that she can't say anything she was scolded by Ning Xiaoxi.
Thinking of this, the fire in my heart burned again almost instantly.
I ripped off the bath towel and walked directly towards Ning Xiaoxi.
"Miss Ning, I know you don't like me. But even if you want to embarrass me, it's all over now. As for my assistant, she is young and ignorant, and she said something wrong to make you unhappy, I don't think Miss Ning will bother with her, right? ”
Director Huang was stunned for a moment, he never thought that I would rush over to negotiate Gu Miaomiao's matter with Ning Xiaoxi.
So he winked at me on the spot and motioned for me to shut up.
I ignored it, still staring directly at Ning Xiaoxi.
She was sitting there reading the script, and then she looked up at me with a cold expression.
"What, Cheng Lan, are you looking for me to ask my master for guilt now?"
Ning Xiaoxi threw away the script, squinted her eyes, and stood up from the recliner with her arms propped up.
She is taller than me, her posture is straight, and her aura has always been strong.
But I really don't understand, why such a woman who is excellent in all aspects has such an unbearable strange temper?
I couldn't help but sigh when I thought of this.
"Miss Ning, I don't mean anything else. I just hope you can understand a truth. ”
