Rebirth of top photographers

Chapter 102 Ten Long Hours
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when Wang Zeze's team finished their meal.

If he didn't know that they were here for a cover shoot, Chen Pingsheng would have thought they were here for a meal.

But even after eating for so long, I actually didn't eat much of most of the dishes. The rest was enough to feed four or five people. It was just a waste of food.

Fortunately, this time they finally didn't have to take a two-hour lunch break and finally let the makeup artist start putting on makeup.

Chen Pingsheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the filming was on track.

Unfortunately, this tone did not last long, as makeup artist Sister Zhang came to see him again.

"Teacher Wang, what's wrong? Are you not satisfied with your makeup?" Chen Pingsheng came to the dressing room and asked as he looked at the star with his legs crossed and his hands stretched out to let his life assistant cut his nails.

"See for yourself, is this the same as the reference you gave me?" Wang Zeze pointed at his face and then at the reference photo posted on the mirror.

Chen Pingsheng took a look and said, "Teacher Wang, the makeup artist hasn't finished the makeup yet, and it needs to be adjusted according to your face shape, so it's normal that it looks different from the reference photo for now."

"How do I know that her makeup looks the same after putting it on? If it's different, do I have to take it off and put it on again?" At this moment, Wang Zeze is just like the trolls on the Internet, he doesn't need to think at all and just opens his mouth.

Chen Pingsheng held back his anger and said, "Then what do you think?"

"I'm not a photographer. Ask me what I'm doing. Don't you have a plan? Don't you know how to put on makeup?" Wang Zeze immediately sarcastically said.

Chen Pingsheng didn't say anything. He directly found Sister Xia and asked her what she wanted to do.

Sister Xia held her mobile phone, scrolling through short videos, and said casually: "You are a photographer, why are you asking me?"

"Because the makeup is not finished yet, I think I have to put it on first. Sister Xia, would you like to help me persuade Teacher Wang? After all, your time is precious, we can wait, but Teacher Wang is so busy People, there are so many announcements every day." Chen Pingsheng gave some advice.

Sister Xia nodded and said in a strange tone: "Okay, let me advise Ze Ze. It's okay to wait like this. After all, our time is precious and we can't argue with ordinary people like you." In her words, people like Chen Pingsheng were already mentioned. Draw a clear boundary with yourself.

Chen Pingsheng finally confirmed that these two people were deliberately targeting the filming.

However, he showed no emotion on the surface and just subconsciously touched his cell phone.

"Zeze, don't be angry. Let's see the effect of makeup first. If it doesn't work, we'll talk about it later." Sister Xia walked to the table and looked at Wang Zeze.

"Okay, sister, if you say so, let's put on makeup first." Wang Zeze agreed.

The makeup artists immediately started working on his face again, but the previous expressions on his face disappeared, and they just wanted to finish the work as quickly as possible.

But Chen Pingsheng simply sat in the dressing room this time, wanting to see what this guy was going to do.

Fortunately, the makeup went smoothly to the end.

Wang Zeze looked at the mirror and found that there was really not much difference from the reference photo. He didn't find anything wrong. He said nothing and just nodded to continue.

Then the costumer brought some clothes for him to try on.

But after Wang Zeze tried two things, he suddenly got angry again.

"Look what kind of clothes this is?" He pulled at the black feathered outfit that exposed his arms with disgust on his face. This outfit was actually made to match his role in the new drama.

Because he plays a magpie that becomes a spirit, many feathers are added by hand as decoration to the entire dress.

During the previous communication, Wang Zeze's team did not mention the problem, but unexpectedly they got angry as the filming approached.

"I have communicated with you about this dress before." Chen Pingsheng explained. Who knew that Wang Zeze said: "I didn't look carefully before."

Then he plucked his feathers and tsked: "It's too ugly. What's the aesthetic? It's so ugly and it's used for photography. If your magazine can't find a photographer with good aesthetics, why don't you come to me? It's true."

Hearing this, everyone present turned their attention to Chen Pingsheng.

However, Chen Pingsheng had no expression on his face, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in Wang Zeze's mouth at all. He just comforted the costume teacher in a low voice, and then said: "Sister Li, please help Teacher Wang change her clothes on the spot."

"Okay." Sister Li immediately took the tools and changed her clothes in front of Wang Zeze.

"Teacher Wang, if you have any requests, just tell us and we will change them directly." Chen Pingsheng looked at Wang Zeze.

For some reason, Wang Zeze suddenly felt that his eyes were too calm, and he didn't look like he was in a hurry to take pictures.

"Humph." He sat back on the chair and ate fruit while giving advice.

Chen Pingsheng looked at the time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

He walked out and reported to Editor Li Feng again.

Curry stood aside and watched his actions. Although she also felt irritated, she was even more grateful that she was not the one taking the photo, otherwise the blame for the time delay would have been borne by her.After a while, Chen Pingsheng received a call from Li Feng.

On the phone, his usual cordiality and peace changed, and he asked him to shoot as soon as possible. After all, Wang Zeze and the others' expenses were high and they couldn't keep delaying like this.He happened to be on a business trip today to discuss cooperation, so he didn't have time to come back, so he could only communicate with Sister Xia on the phone.

And he also said that if the final delay is too long, the debt will be borne by Chen Pingsheng.

In other words, part of his salary will be deducted as delay expenses.

It was all bad news. Chen Pingsheng hung up the phone, leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and sighed, then suddenly laughed again.

Because he found that he seemed to be doing a very meaningless thing, as if he had to write his name with chalk on smooth glass.

But it was an interesting experience.

Regarding life, Chen Pingsheng is a complete experientialist.Everything is regarded as a process by him, and he does not feel that difficulties and setbacks will always follow him.

But this time, he suddenly understood something.

Before that, he was still trying to figure out and plan his current life based on his past experiences.

But he doesn't have to be like this.

He is not a commercial photographer, he is an art photographer.

Why must he go back to the old path?

After some self-questioning and answering, Chen Pingsheng shook his head. This was completely contrary to the life and art he pursued.

So he already had a decision in his mind.

But now is not the bottom line. Chen Pingsheng looked at his phone. After all, he signed the contract himself, so the responsibility naturally lies with him.

There was still no rush until the flight, so he could wait a little longer. He wanted to see what else Wang Zeze could do.

At 05:30 in the afternoon, the costume changes were completed.Wang Zeze said he needed to go to the toilet, and the filming team waited for half an hour.

At six o'clock in the evening, we arrived at the filming location.Wang Zeze was not satisfied with the props, so the props team changed the props again.

At [-]:[-] pm, all the props were modified.Wang Zeze made a request to modify the lighting and wanted to shoot in another style.

At 07:30 in the evening, Chen Pingsheng and Wang Zeze argued hard and finally convinced each other to shoot according to the original lighting.However, Wang Zeze’s team felt that the lights were dazzling and asked for adjustments.

At [-]:[-] p.m., the lights were adjusted.Wang Zeze proposed to modify the posture, but Sister Xia believed that the original posture was detrimental to her image as an artist.

At nine o'clock in the evening, both parties reached an agreement on the shooting posture.But Wang Zeze said he was too hungry and wanted to have dinner first.

At 10:30 in the evening, Wang Zeze's team finally finished their meal and walked into the studio. Wang Zeze himself still felt that the costume was uncomfortable, so he changed it again.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the costume change was completed. Wang Zeze's team had no doubts this time and was finally about to enter the shooting session.

At this time, Chen Pingsheng called Curry over.

"You will be the main photographer for the rest of the shooting." Chen Pingsheng handed the camera to her.

"What do you mean?" Curry looked confused.

"I have already told Li Feng about terminating the contract, so you are here for this shoot." Chen Pingsheng smiled, seemingly not affected by the repeated accusations from Wang Zeze's team.

"You..." Curry was surprised. She didn't expect that Chen Pingsheng would choose the toughest stance.

"This is about to be filmed. It will definitely not take long. Why now?" Although Curry was happy that she could get the opportunity to close the filming, she didn't understand why Chen Pingsheng did this. He had obviously made so many arrangements conscientiously before. incident, he spared no effort to protect everyone, and he accepted all the difficulties faced by the other team with a smile.

Even her competitor admired him, but at the end of the day, he actually gave up?

Chen Pingsheng's answer to this question was very simple and childish. It was so childish that it was hard to believe that this was what an adult could say.

He looked at the corner shrouded in black in the distance, feeling that it had been dark for so long that even if the light was turned on, it would be obscured by shadows.If no one lights the torch for a long time, people in the world may still think that it should be dark in the first place.

But he didn’t want to live in darkness, so he said with a smile: “Everything I did before was because of contracts. But now…”

After saying that, he smiled slightly, then faced the lights of the studio and walked in, leaving only the long silhouette on the ground hiding Curry's figure.

　The pace of the plot has been relatively slow these two days. The plot of the conflict that broke out over the weekend will be released in one go for everyone to enjoy.
