"Really? That's just great. Hearing Xia Ning's words, Zuo Xin was overjoyed, he didn't expect the other party to really help him solve it: "Thank you so much, I will send you the address, and I will definitely invite you to dinner after the matter is completed." ”

"Eating is a trivial matter, but I can't guarantee that you will be satisfied with the director." Xia Ning reminded the other party that he was afraid that he would be blamed for not putting on makeup when the time came.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zuo Xin replied with a smile, it would be good to find a makeup artist now, and it would be good to ask for anything more.

After talking for a while, Xia Ning put away his phone and looked at the virtual screen, the previous silver treasure chest had opened a low-level horror makeup skill "Dead Man's Makeup", which was about horror makeup, but it had never been used, but I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time.

He glanced around the mall a few more times, horror makeup in addition to skilled makeup techniques, also requires specific makeup utensils, the combination of the two, to create a unique sense of horror.

"Hey, why can't you find it?" After flipping through it a few times, Xia Ning still didn't find it, "Could it be that these makeup utensils are in a more advanced commercial district?" ”

If that's the case, it's going to be difficult.

Without cosmetics, even if you go, it's useless, and it's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

Taking out his mobile phone, Xia Ning hesitated to call the other party, but inadvertently glanced at the treasure chest icon on the screen and found that there was still one that had not been claimed, and it was a silver treasure chest.

"I forgot, when I was promoted to LV1 yesterday, the system also gave away a silver treasure chest."

With his hands folded, Xia Ning prayed as if praying to God and worshipping Buddha as before.

"Let's get some makeup utensils! Let me be possessed by the Emperor! ”

After a bit of chatter, he clicked on the treasure chest.

"Hello host, congratulations on getting the Intermediate Horror Cosmetic Box: suffocating silicone skin, life-threatening foundation... Use them to draw a chilling makeup..."

The white light flashed, and on the table in front of Xia Ning, there was a burgundy leather case abruptly.

Good guy, I can't really be possessed by the Emperor.

Xia Ning looked at the delicate small suitcase in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh that after crossing over, his luck was getting better and better.

If you buy a lottery ticket, you can't make a fortune?

After the brainless fantasy, he didn't stay anymore, he picked up his suitcase and left the school, took a taxi at the gate of the road and went straight to the crew that Zuo Xin said.

...

A suburb of Dragon City.

The filming location of the crew of "Hundred Ghosts Night Walking".

Director Li Yong swallowed the smoke in his mouth, and the whole person was very irritable, and the scene that was about to start filming had to stop because the makeup artist did not come temporarily.

He feels as if fate has been playing tricks on him, and the last time he personally filmed the Internet horror movie "Devil's Kiss", he was complained and scolded by the audience because of the problem of obedience, and this time it was because of similar problems.

"Director, when can we start putting on makeup, everyone has been preparing for a long time." A young girl leaned forward and asked.

She is a student of Longcheng Film and Television Academy, and she came to do a group performance today, wanting to improve her acting skills, but she and others waited for a long time, but there was still no staff to make up for them, so it was a little strange.

"Yes, we've been waiting for so long, and we can't shoot yet."

"I'm going to do part-time work later, and if I don't start filming, I'll leave."

"That's it."

As soon as the girl's words came out, other impatient people who had been waiting for a long time also complained, and they basically ran a trick and slipped away.

"If you want to act, you can act, if you don't act, you will get out!" After listening to this, Director Li, who was already angry, burst out of his temples and threw the cigarette butt on the ground, his eyes were about to split.

"Alas, why are you like this?!"

"Why are you yelling so loudly?"

"Although we are just playing tricks, we must have a minimum of respect."

"There is no place to stay here, there is a place to keep a master."

Many people stood up one after another, almost wanting to leave.

"Calm down, everyone, the makeup artist will be here soon." Seeing that it had caused public anger, Zuo Xin hurriedly stepped forward to play a round game, and said calmly to Li Yong: "Director Li, wait a minute, people are already on the way." ”

"Everybody, all of you..."

took out the cold drink he had just bought, Zuo Xin divided the bottles with a smile on his face, and the group performers, who were still a little angry, couldn't say anything.

After all, don't reach out and hit the smiling person.

Panting and wiping the sweat on his face, Zuo Xin looked at the door of the crew with an anxious face.

Brother Xia, come on! I can't stop it!

Finally, under the sound of prayer, an emaciated figure holding a suitcase appeared in view.

Rubbing his eyes, Zuo Xin looked at it a few more times and found that it was really Xia Ning, so he hurriedly ran over.

"My boss, you're finally here! But we're going to die! Xia Ning's arrival relieved the flustered Zuo Xin, who looked behind the former again, and his face changed: "Old Xia, where is the makeup artist?" ”

"Isn't it here?" Xia Ning smiled and wiped the beads of sweat from the suitcase with her hand.

"Divine horses?" Zuo Xin tilted his head, opened his mouth wide, and had a question mark: "No, brother, what do you mean?" ”

"I mean it very clearly, the makeup artist is me." took the cold drink in the other party's arms, Xia Ning raised his head and drank it.

"Don't fool around, my brother, 100,000 is in a hurry." Hearing the other party's words, Zuo Xin instantly had a bitter gourd face, "Aren't you cheating on me?" ”

"Look at what you say, why don't you believe me." Throwing the finished drink bottle into the trash, Xia Ning put the suitcase in front of the other party, "I'm prepared, put my heart in my stomach, besides, do you have a better way?" ”

"This..." scratched his head helplessly, Zuo Xin had no choice, and now he had to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, "Okay, you come with me." ”

led Xia Ning to Li Yong's side, the latter's anger had not completely subsided, he glanced at him indifferently, and then withdrew his eyes: "What are you bringing the group performance here for?" ”

"Director Li, he... It's a makeup artist. Rubbing his hands helplessly, Zuo Xin said with a dry smile.

Syllable!

Burning cigarette butts collide with the ground and sparks.

Li Yong grabbed Zuo Xin up, and squirming green tendons snaked out of his red head: "You think you are very humorous?" ”

"No... No, he's really a makeup artist, just a little younger. Someone on Zuo, who was carried in mid-air, said hesitantly, and pointed to the suitcase in Xia Ning's hand, "Oh, that's his makeup tools, it's all in there." ”

Hearing this, Li Yong's bellows-like whistling chest slowly calmed down, and his clenched hands were released, and he re-lit a cigarette, and said without looking back: "If you dare to lie to me, you can get out." ”

It wasn't until after the other party left that Zuo Xin gasped for breath.

"Your director is so grumpy, I don't dare to speak next to me." Xia Ning, who was holding the suitcase, said with surprise on his face that he was also frightened by the director's fiery temper.

"Harm, he's like this, don't mention this, I'm all up to you now, if you can't, I'll just..." Zuo Xin said very aggrievedly, his heart full of bitterness.

"Okay, okay, believe me, I won't let you down, take me to the actors." patted the other party's shoulder comfortingly, and Boss Xia smiled.

Then, the two came to the extras.

"Everybody come here, line up, the makeup artist is here, you can start applying makeup." Zuo Xin stepped forward and said, pointing to Xia Ning beside him.

"So young? You're kidding, right? ”

"Where did you get the hairy boy? Even if you can't find a makeup artist, you don't need to find a child. ”

Seeing Xia Ning's slightly delicate face, the rest of the crew was also a little unconvinced, they had seen a lot of young makeup artists, but they were much older than the former, so they didn't know the bottom of their hearts.

"Okay, don't make any noise, just do it." Zuo Xin didn't want to explain so much.

The employees didn't say anything more, so they had to take the group performers and start lining up to put on makeup.

Compared to the makeup of the main characters, the extras are much simpler, because they are mostly ignored in the movie, so some directors choose not to care.

In fact, this is a big mistake, the makeup of film and television dramas about group performances must not be sloppy, especially for themes like military dramas, the makeup of extras is particularly crucial, if the protagonist is gray and the supporting roles are clean and white, then the drama will be ruined.

Let's have a brief understanding of the plot with Zuo Xin, this shot is a scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night, as the ignition point of the climax, which plays a role in undertaking the integrity of the story.

Xia Ning nodded, indicating that he understood that such an important scene must not be neglected.

In front of the first group performer, the other party was a good-looking girl who looked quite young.

To make such a beautiful girl with a beautiful face into a powerful ghost is a technical job, but he just happens to have such skills.

Being a little shy, the girl chose to close her eyes, but this did not affect her makeup.

Opening the burgundy suitcase, a dazzling array of makeup tools appeared in front of him, all of which were of all kinds, and some Xia Ning even thought that professional makeup artists might not recognize them.

With the movement of his wrist, all the operations of the primary horror makeup skill "Dead Man's Makeup" appeared in his mind one by one, as if engraved on the soul.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and Xia Ning began his artistic creation.

Scary makeup is very demanding, take the forehead, cheeks, chin, nose and neck five parts, each part of the makeup is different, and then the bottom makeup, foundation blush and other cosmetics should be just right, otherwise the effect will only be laughing and generous.

The hand is directed, the technique is skillful, and the eyebrow pencil and eyeliner are converted back and forth in the hand.

The girl's face was like a blank piece of paper, which he decorated with a paintbrush.

At this moment, Xia Ning does not look like a college student at all, but an artist immersed in Danqing.

Zuo Xin, who was standing on the side, was a little worried at first, but after staring at it for a while, his eyes began to widen, and he looked at the picture in front of him with some incredulity.

After some time, Xia Ning put on the final blush for the girl and nodded with satisfaction.

"Alright, you can open your eyes."

The girl who had closed her eyes for a long time opened her eyes, but she didn't feel any change in her face, which surprised her.

In other previous film makeup, she often felt discomfort after makeup, but now she doesn't.

"Really?" She was still a little suspicious, but when the girl noticed the strange expressions of the others, she seemed to understand something, and quickly took out a small mirror from her bag.

Just one glance, she was stunned, and the whole person subconsciously shivered.

"Oh my God, is this really me?"

The self in the mirror is very beautiful, but it is not the kind that belongs to the living.

His face was pale, and his lips were like drops of blood.

A smile overflows with desolation, and the beautiful face is mixed with the loneliness of Huangquan.

At this moment, I am like a corpse that has long since died.
