Rose Manor

Shen Jia Nian joined the team two months later.

The crew held a low-key opening ceremony at Maple Mountain Film and Television City. No media was invited, and not a single photo was circulated online.

Shen Jia Nian wore long braids, a small bun on her head, and a silver hairpin on one side. A row of tiny tassels hung on the sides of Ying Bai's ears. She wore black clothes and carried a long long hairpin on her back. The sword is simple, capable and neat, but it has a pure and unpretentious beauty.

This is her usual outfit in the play.

After two months of training, she can now perform various difficult movements with wires hanging on her. Her figure has also lost some weight, and her cheeks are visibly thin.

Fu Jichen couldn't be by her side all the time, so he asked Cheng Jin to work with the team to prepare three meals a day for her, which were healthier and more nutritious than the takeaway lunches ordered by the crew.

When lunch time came, everyone received their lunch boxes and looked for a place to eat.

Cheng Jin read the notice issued by the coordinator in advance and showed up at the right time to deliver food to Shen Jia Nian.

Shen Jia Nian put away the long sword he carried with him and sat in a folding chair under the umbrella. He held a bowl and drank soup first. The pork ribs and yam soup had been simmered for several hours. It was light and delicious.

Tong Yan was holding the lunch box and poked the greasy chicken thigh with her chopsticks. She moved her nose and smelled a scent. She glanced in the direction of Shen Jianian and murmured to the assistant: "Look at how she looks like that." She's here to film, and she's basically here to enjoy the holidays. If any other actress had dared to open a small kitchen on the set, she would have been said to be a big name. She is a newcomer, she doesn't even have a Weibo, and she doesn't have fans to help her fight, so she dares I don’t know who gave me the confidence to do this.”

Director Wang Kelun's crew is different. From the start of filming to the completion of filming, no relevant news is allowed to spread, regardless of good or bad, it will be stopped.

Don't worry about the heat issue at all.

Unlike some dramas, there have been various Reuters rumors since the show was launched. The drama has not yet been aired, but the popularity has started first. Netizens can go straight to the finale just by looking at the pictures and brainstorming.

If a paparazzi dares to come here to provoke, Wang Kelun's team will definitely sue the paparazzi for infringement. This is also why Shen Jia Nian's behavior was not photographed and spread.

Tong Yan picked a few grains of rice and stuffed them into her mouth, chewed them and swallowed them. She was tired and hungry, but she had no appetite.

The assistant handed her a drink and suggested: "How about we also hire a cooking aunt. Sister Yanyan works so hard every day in filming. She has to keep up with her nutrition. Her body is the most important thing."

Tong Yan glanced at her sideways: "Don't imitate the good ones and imitate the bad ones. Do you think the director has no objection to her doing this?"

The assistant felt aggrieved and defended himself: "I don't think Director Wang said anything."

Tong Yan snorted coldly: "On the surface, he will definitely not say anything. After all, there are so many people on the crew watching, and there is no guarantee that he won't mention it to others behind the scenes. When the time comes, it will be spread from ten to ten, and his reputation will be bad in the circle." Now, who would dare to film with such a difficult-to-serve boss in the future?"

"You're right." The little assistant nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, having learned the lesson, "Then let's endure it and eat something delicious to make up for it when we are free."

"Don't eat."

Tong Yan put down her lunch box, drank some water, and lay down on the chair to rest.

Shooting started in the afternoon for the scene opposite Shen Jianian and Tong Yan.

The two of them had two fierce rivalry scenes. One was when Ruoyu found out that her assistant Yindai fell in love with someone she shouldn't have loved, so she confronted her. In another scene, Yin Dai made a mistake due to personal problems, leading to the failure of an important task. Ruoyu punished Yin Dai.

Today we filmed the previous scene, an indoor scene.

Ruoyu came out after bathing and changing clothes. Her long, disheveled hair was moist, making her hair darker and darker, and her complexion fair. In order to look good on camera, she only applied a thin layer of powder.

Yin Dai was already standing in the room with his head lowered.

The doors and windows all around were closed, and candlelight flickered in broad daylight. Ruoyu knelt in front of the table and drank tea.

A piece of rice paper was spread out in front of her, with plum blossoms painted on it. Ruoyu, played by Shen Jianian, said faintly: "Prince Zhe likes plum blossoms the most. I see that the style of your painting is the same as the screen in his palace."

Yin Dai, played by Tong Yan, raised her head and stared directly at the person not far away. She knew that she had been seen through, so she did not deny it cleverly. Instead, she persuaded: "Sir, everyone has seven emotions and six desires. Without these, we can't Call it a human being. Unlike you, who think of yourself as..."

"Cut!"

Wang Kelun stopped behind the monitor and leaned back.

He is still wearing a peaked cap, and his eyes are narrowed under the brim. Today he is wearing ordinary black-rimmed glasses, not brown lenses. You can see the anger in his eyes: "What's going on? Didn't you just tell a drama? ? Tong Yan, where did you get so many stubborn emotions! Now you are emotional when you shouldn't be, and your superiors have discovered it. You have to show fear, grievance, and distress for Ruoyu, and feel sorry for her. I don’t understand emotions! Instead of showing off and being sarcastic, have I made it clear enough?”    Wang Kelun has trolled people on the set too many times, and almost everyone has been scolded, but he is indeed angry enough now, probably because of his break At noon, the first filming session started in the afternoon. It was supposed to be in good condition, but something like this went wrong.

Tong Yan twisted her hands together and looked back at the director, her face flushed: "Director Wang, I was wrong."

"Do it again." Wang Kelun picked up the loudspeaker at hand, "Make-up artist, spray some water on Shen Jiannian's hair. If you wait a little longer, the hair will be dry."

Tong Yan blushed more and more.

She calmed down a little and reflected on herself that she should have expressed her personal emotions towards Shen Jianian through acting, which was a taboo for actors.

It's because she's not professional enough.

After adjusting, Tong Yan took a deep breath: "I'm ready."

In the second play of the same scene, Shen Jia Nian performed steadily, while Tong Yan showed her grievance: "Sir, everyone has seven emotions and six desires. I can't control it... I'm sorry, I remembered the wrong words."

Maybe she was too eager to perform well and made mistakes on the most basic lines.

The assistant went over to send the script to his artist despite the director's disapproval, asking her to read it several times to avoid memorizing it again.

Wang Kelun pinched his eyebrows and began to take the third shot.

Tong Yan: "Sir, everyone has seven emotions and six desires. Without these, we cannot be called human beings. Unlike you, who regard yourself as a weapon. You are the long sword behind you. You only know how to kill people and don't know what emotions are. , if you fall in love with someone one day, I believe you..."

"Cut!" Wang Kelun stopped again, "Tong Yan, I asked you to express your grievances, not just to feel wronged. Your performance has no level at all. Didn't you feel it yourself? How did you understand it? ? I see that your fans are all praising you on Weibo for your acting skills, which are better than those of actors with a bachelor's degree. Just like that, compared with a bachelor's degree student? You can't even catch Shen Jianian's scenes!"

Shen Jia Nian touched the tip of her nose and turned her face away, praying in her heart that Director Wang would not arouse hatred for her. Tong Yan already disliked her.

Tong Yan was scolded by Director Wang and cried. She couldn't find her state for a long time, and she was anxious and ashamed.

Wang Kelun didn't like to see people crying. He waved his hand and said angrily: "The shooting is paused. I'll find the situation myself. I'll continue shooting in half an hour!"

With a roar, Wang Kelun took out the cigarette case from his trouser pocket, bit it in his mouth, grinded the filter with his teeth, took out a lighter and lit it.

Shen Jia Nian was also forced to rest. When she joined the team, she hired an assistant for convenience, but she could handle some daily trivial matters by herself, so she didn't bother the assistant. The main reason was that she wasn't used to being served closely by an unfamiliar person.

She walked to her assistant Xiaoyu, picked up her water glass and drank some water.

Xiaoyu handed her the phone: "Your phone rang. It was Mr. Fu, but I didn't answer."

Shen Jia Nian said he got it and only glanced at the screen without calling back. She sat on the floor, holding the pipa beside her and playing with it.

From the beginning when she couldn't make a tune, she has now become very proficient in playing it. This may be related to her own musical instrument learning. Pipa teacher said that she has high comprehension and rapid progress.

The only pipa scene had not yet been filmed, so Shen Jia Nian practiced every opportunity, trying not to miss the mark.

One of Ruoyu's characters is that she is the best in the world with her pipa skills. She thinks that her current level cannot be called "the best in the world", so she can only work harder to achieve the highest level possible.

Wang Kelun held the cigarette between his fingers and looked at Shen Jianian. She tilted her head slightly, hugged the pipa with both hands, and played freely. The melodious tune echoed in the room, soothing the irritability in her heart.

She is completely immersed in the world she has constructed, and no one around her can affect her.

As the filming time continues to increase, the characters of Shen Jianian and Ruoyu are getting closer and closer, and they seem to be integrated. It proved that he had chosen the wrong person. She was indeed a talented player. Many expressions and emotions did not need to be taught. She had her own understanding and acted instinctively. Sometimes she would also bring him new insights, saying " This scene can still be performed like this."

After spending most of the afternoon, this scene was finally passed.

Shen Jianian was sprayed with cold water several times during this period. The camera did not capture her behind, and the clothes on her back were all wet.

After returning to the hotel and swiping his card to open the door, Shen Jianian covered his nose and sneezed. He raised his eyes and saw the man standing by the floor-to-ceiling window on the phone. (End of chapter)
