You've passed the college entrance examination, but can't you make it in the entertainment

First day of makeup trial.

Le Yan, who was recognized as a "beautiful man" in the circle, has become a middle-aged man with sparse eyebrows and baldness.

Just by changing the shape of the eyebrows and hairstyle, the whole person's condition has completely changed, even the age is different.

Now that he and Ni Zhen are sitting side by side, it is difficult for outsiders to judge who should call whom "big brother".

The second day of makeup trial.

The fair-skinned middle-aged man turned into a middle-aged man with a pale face. Le Yan's face looked so bad that anyone who saw him would ask "how many days can he live?"

The makeup teacher said that eyebrows cannot be drawn sparsely by technology or hard work, as that would look too unrealistic. However, he was ruthless when changing the skin color on Le Yan's face. After a few layers of putty, Le Yan's face was black with yellow, and yellow with gray. He looked like a drug addict who was taking drugs, as sick as he could be.

Looking at Le Yan's current face, even Li Yiran couldn't help but feel proud of it.

"How about we talk on the phone tonight instead of video chatting?"

After adjusting her skin color, Le Yan, feeling uncomfortable, originally went to Li Yiran to complain, but she didn't expect that even her beloved Li Yiran couldn't open his eyes.

You should know that when he played Ma Debang in the drama in his freshman year, he also played a clown. At that time, Li Yiran not only did not say that he was ugly, but also hugged his greasy and middle-parted head and kissed him for half a minute.

Now even the videos that are released every night have to be downgraded. You can imagine how amazing Le Yan's makeup looks at this moment.

The third day of the makeup trial is the day for finalizing the makeup.

The script reading took up a lot of time. If we don’t finalize our makeup today, it will most likely affect the auspicious date for filming that had been scheduled in advance, so everything has to be pushed forward.

Until the last moment before finalizing her makeup, Le Yan was still struggling against fate.

"This makeup makes me look a little old. Ding Rui is so young, it's not appropriate for me to play a couple."

"Don't worry, Ding Rui's makeup is also quite mature, we have taken this into consideration."

"This character has violent tendencies, his face is ashen and he looks like he's dying. How can he still have the energy to hit someone? Isn't there something wrong with this logic?"

"No problem. Who says short-lived ghosts can't hit people?"

"M's bald face has leather covers on these two areas, but the color of the leather covers is too different from that of his face. It will be difficult for Bao Bin to adjust the lighting when the time comes. How about changing the skin color?"

"Well, what you said makes sense. The transition area on the forehead is too short, so it will be difficult to adjust the top light and face light. So how about this--" Peng Yiwei pushed his small round glasses and turned to the stylist next to him and said, "Hurry up and push Le Yan's hairline back another 6 centimeters to leave enough transition space. Hurry up!"

Le Yan fainted this time.

Six pm.

The crew members took the final makeup photos and went to Le Yan's team to confirm the materials.

In the afternoon, the crew took more than 8 makeup photos of Le Yan, and we can choose from them.

The final makeup photos need to be confirmed by the artist’s team. If the artist’s team does not confirm, these photos cannot be refined and cannot be released in the future. These are the terms clearly stipulated in the contract.

Le Yan's hands were shaking as he looked back and forth between the more than 40 photos, his eyes hurting.

In the past, when taking photos, the other party asked them to choose 8 photos, but Le Yan’s team wanted to choose 80 photos, because each one was so excellent and beautiful, and it was impossible to choose. As long as Le Yan stood there, he was a beautiful landscape.

But today, Le Yan, Ni Zhen, and Deng Xuefeng took turns to pick a single photo. Finally, they asked Ge Man who was passing by to help them pick one.
But there is only this one, and I really can’t choose the second one.

"Just pick one, don't worry about it, they're all equally ugly anyway." Le Yan said with despair.

How could this face that looks so strange be mine?
There is not even a trace of it!

Ge Man put the photos away with a sense of relief and comforted Le Yan:

"Don't be sad, that's just the way it looks after makeup. Look now that I've taken it off—"

After a long breath, she continued:
"It's not that bad now, it's still watchable."

Although the putty on his face was removed, Le Yan's eyebrows were actually gone, and his hair became like a Mediterranean shape because his hairline moved up 6 cm at the last moment.

Ge Man wanted to comfort Le Yan, but she didn't want to lie.
To be honest, LeYan is somewhat apologetic for the way he is now.

"Then I'll pick eight." Ni Zhen stood up and took the photos out, "I'll go talk to the crew."

Looking at Ni Zhen's departing back, Le Yan held his bare forehead and lowered his head sadly.

Le Yan couldn't laugh at all when she thought that one day in the future, the eight photos in Ni Zhen's hands would be used as promotional materials all over the country, or even the world.

Peng Yiwei is such a fucking bastard. He was so cruel.

No wonder Deng Xuefeng swore that he never wanted to work with him again.

Should!
"How did you manage to tolerate Peng Yiwei for so many years?" Le Yan asked Ge Man with a painful look on his face.

What have you experienced in these five years?
Ge Man lowered his head and smiled strangely:

"The makeup is already done."

Where did this go?

"The makeup is still good? I'm too embarrassed to go out and see people!" Le Yan covered his face and hair with his hat and cried out in pain.

Deng Xuefeng calmly drank a sip of tea and said:
"The real hard times have not yet begun."

"The real hard days?" Le Yan repeated in confusion, his body shivering uncontrollably.

Deng Xuefeng put on her apron expertly and said without comment:
"Let's have a good meal tonight."

Ge Man patted Le Yan's shoulder and said distressedly:
"eat more."

After reading the script and finalizing the makeup, Peng Yiwei will conduct a round of special performance training for everyone based on the actors' performance in the above two links, commonly known as "last-minute cramming."

I heard from Ge Man and Deng Xuefeng that many actors will undergo a complete transformation after this stage. It can be said that Peng Yiwei knows how to prescribe the right medicine for the disease.

The next day, Le Yan walked into the director's lounge where Peng Yiwei was, wearing a hat and looking nervous. Before he could speak, Peng Yiwei spoke first:

"Le Yan is here. You understand the script very well. I am also satisfied with your makeup. The corresponding special training is also simple. Let's send you to experience life."

Le Yan stood at the door in a daze, already having a bad feeling.

"Just get a feel for the character, it's very simple." Peng Yiwei said again, and then continued to do other things with his head down. It seemed that it was really as he said. Le Yan's previous performance made him very satisfied, and this round of special training was just a formality.

But Le Yan's heart was gripped.

Last night, I heard Ge Man say that Peng Yiwei once threw her into a barren place without even electricity, leaving her to fend for herself and experience the life of a primitive man for ten days. Where is he going to send him this time? "Where to?" Le Yan asked nervously.

Peng Yiwei lowered his head and smiled:
"It's a secret, but it's a good place. You've been working hard lately and have suffered a lot. Just treat it as a place where you can half rest and half experience."

Le Yan sneered in his heart.

Damn old man, don’t I know you?

It would be a miracle if you could have such a good heart!
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and disputes, Peng Yiwei also sent Deng Xuefeng away to experience life. Ni Zhen was also told that he could not leave with Le Yan because that place was "no entry for outsiders".

The only good news is that Le Yan doesn’t need to live there like Ge Man, as the crew’s vehicle will pick him up and drop him off every day.

Before leaving, Le Yan asked the makeup artist to completely remove his makeup.

Since I am no longer the complete me, I will stop being myself completely.

It’s too dangerous to go out and experience life, and no one should be able to recognize me!
After doing all this, the driver took Le Yan from the suburbs of Chengdu to the city center of Chengdu, then crossed the city center and came to the sparsely populated suburbs again, and finally stopped in front of a building surrounded by green trees, with an independent garden and very modern decoration.

The one who greeted Le Yan here was a petite and beautiful girl with a ponytail.

Le Yan began to doubt, has Peng Yiwei really reformed?

The environment here is so beautiful and there are beautiful women accompanying you, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are here for a vacation.

Is it true as Peng Yiwei said, that he suffered a lot recently and was sent here half for rest and half for experience?

Until Le Yan saw the words written on the plaque in front of the building - "Anding Hospital Affiliated to Rongcheng Medical University"

"Mental hospital?" Le Yan asked the beautiful girl in shock.

"Yes." The girl with the ponytail was about to take the schoolbag from Le Yan's back, "Come in quickly, everyone is waiting for you."

At this time, the driver started the car with a complicated expression, and then drove away:

"You can enjoy your 'experience' here in peace. I'll pick you up later."

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't go! Take me away from here! Take me away quickly!" Le Yan tried hard to chase the car, but was stopped by the iron gate that suddenly closed at the door.

Two security guards came out of the security booth, picked up Le Yan from the left and right, and sent him to the place where he got off the bus.

On the way, they were still kindly comforting me:

"Don't be angry, your family is doing this for your own good, just stay here and recuperate."

"No, I'm not sick!" Le Yan struggled hard.

You are so nice, thank you so much!
"Well, everyone who comes here says they're not sick."

It was obvious that the security guard was very familiar with the situation and had to deal with it countless times a month.

Le Yan appeared in front of the girl with ponytail again.

He looked up and down at the girl, who was about his own age, hoping to impress her with his sincerity.

"Hello, can you let me make a phone call to confirm the situation?" Le Yan showed his most iconic sunny smile.

As long as she is a woman, no one is immune to his succubus attack, no one!

Even men have a certain probability
But he forgot that he no longer had the capital at the moment.

"Let's talk while we walk. We still have to process some formalities for you." This time, the girl with the ponytail did not take Le Yan's backpack. She turned around coldly and walked into the hospital. It seemed that Le Yan's escape just now had made her annoyed.

"It will be quick, one minute!" Le Yan took out his phone and said anxiously, "Thirty seconds! Give me thirty seconds!"

He had seen it on TV. Once you enter a mental hospital, it is difficult to get out. You need to sign layers of notes. It is as difficult as hell to escape from the prison.

The girl said she needed to go through some formalities. Was she going to put him in the same ward with those mentally ill people?
No!

No! !

The girl with the ponytail stopped, took out the folder in her hand, checked the name on it, and said to Le Yan impatiently:
"Strict, right? The director and the doctors are waiting for you in the office. Do you know how much time you will waste if you delay for even a minute? If it weren't for Le Yan in your crew, who would agree to let you come here to observe the doctors' daily work? Hurry up!"

Le Yan ignored the girl's strange address and focused on the last sentence!
“Am I here to experience the life of a doctor?”

"What do you think? Do you still want to observe the patient? That requires approval from above, even if Le Yan is in your crew!"

Le Yan sat obediently in the office, listening to the doctor and nurse explain the "safety instructions" for the coming week.

After the brief introduction, he knew that this was indeed a hospital specializing in the treatment of mental illnesses as he had guessed. There were 72 inpatients in the hospital, and in addition, it received hundreds of patients for consultation every day.

Peng Yiwei really sent him here to observe the doctor, and it had nothing to do with those patients.

This made Le Yan, who still had only a vague understanding of the script, wonder if he was going to play the role of a psychiatrist in the movie this time?

Le Yan felt that this arrangement was reasonable.

A doctor who has been dealing with mental illness for a long time has developed a mental illness. Well, this is indeed the routine that Peng Yiwei likes to use.

In addition to information related to the character's profession, Le Yan also collected some other information.

For example, these people called him 'Yanshi'.

For example, his current appearance has been so subverted that these people can't recognize him at all
Even the girl with the ponytail who asked him about Le Yan's information intentionally or unintentionally and claimed to be a die-hard fan of Le Yan did not realize that his brother was right in front of him.

The Eastern head-changing technique is so terrifying
Without internal and external worries, Le Yan began to devote himself wholeheartedly to the work of observing life.

Although he is not allowed to contact patients openly, because Le Yan's observation object is a psychiatrist, he will still indirectly contact many patients throughout the day.

After observing for most of the day, Le Yan discovered that this department was different from any other department, and the difference was huge.

In other departments, patients come in and say, "I feel uncomfortable here and there" or "I am sick there and there." These patients are convinced that they are sick, and that it is a very serious illness. If the doctor does not prescribe medicine for them or keep them in the hospital, they will die.

But people who come to the psychiatric department for consultation always start by saying "I doubt" or "I am worried". What they fear most is that the doctor will say "If I don't prescribe medicine for you and you don't treat your illness, you will die."

Patients in other departments may exaggerate their pain even if they are well, hoping that the doctor will take a closer look at them; and patients in psychiatric departments often "lie" and pretend to be well to conceal their pain.

Moreover, patients in other departments can confirm and discover their symptoms through various examinations, but psychiatric patients do not have specific examination instruments, and doctors need to communicate with patients, ask questions, and then manually evaluate the patient's condition.

Le Yan, who had already started half-vacation mode, suddenly became interested.

"It turns out that this is possible." (End of this chapter)
