waiting for your starlight

Chapter 57

In August and September, Hengdian was as hot as a big steamer, and the room temperature in the filming location was as high as 50 degrees Celsius. In order to cool down, two giant ice cubes were placed on the filming site. The crew had to buy this special 30 yuan a piece every day ice.But even so, the actors are still suffering, especially when they are filming costume scenes, they wear at least three layers, and they can sweat profusely just sitting still, not to mention running around and doing various performances.

Yixi has never experienced such hardship.For three consecutive days, her total sleep was less than twelve hours, and the dark circles under her eyes could hardly be covered.There is no way, as the heroine of the female drama, she must have the most roles, and the filming will be finished in early October, after which Han Meng will join the group.Under tremendous pressure, staying up late to catch up with work has become a common occurrence.

After all, TV dramas are not like movies. Movies pay attention to slow work and meticulous work. It is not surprising to spend a whole day on a single shot. TV dramas like this are waiting for death.There are also lines, the lines of the movie are refined, and Yixi was the third female lead in "Seizing the Palace" before, so she didn't need to memorize many lines at all.But this time is different, Wu Meiniang is the absolute protagonist, and there are a lot of lines everywhere, and there is no time to familiarize her with it on the set, it all depends on the actors to work hard on their own.

Zhou Xingfang was also worried that Yixi would not be able to keep up with the progress, but to her surprise, the girl got into the situation very quickly. Except for some minor problems on the first day, the subsequent filming went smoothly.She has a good memory and can recite even complicated and difficult lines verbatim.Not only that, but her lines are far superior to actors of the same age, Zhou Xingfang is very satisfied.You know, 80.00% of current costume dramas are dubbed by dubbing actors in the later stage, but her dramas have always been recorded live, and she doesn't like to use dubbing.However, personal preference is one aspect. If the actor's line skills are too poor, he can only ask the voice actor to help him add points.Yixi has no shortcomings in this aspect, and Zhou Xingfang admires her a little more. No matter how talented she is, some things can only be mastered after hard work. It seems that this girl has never been lazy in her studies.

Her performance also convinced the crowd who had doubts about her.Everyone is not an idiot, and things like acting skills are pretty obvious at a glance. At least in the eyes of these industry insiders, whether Yixi is really capable or not depends entirely on relationships. After she has performed three scenes, there is no suspense anymore.

At the beginning of September, Xia Xintong and Guo Ziqian entered the group one after another. Although they had a lot of flirting before, Xia Xintong restrained herself when they got together.It was her first time to participate in such a big production, and she couldn't help being excited. She dragged Yixi to discuss the script when she had nothing to do, and she was very concerned about the role.As for Guo Ziqian, she probably digested the fact that she lost to Yixi again, and could chat and joke with her freely.

Xia Xintong was very emotional about this, "Every time I come to this time, I will reflect on it. It seems that my professional courses are still not as good as hers, and I have lost a lot in acting! Why do I want to slap her when I see her!"

Beside her, Yixi was eating an ice cream, and she agreed, "Yes, you should learn from Guo Ziqian. Someday you can perform Sisterhood and Lily Infinity with her, and you can pack up and prepare to be the actress." .”

Xia Xintong made up the picture in her head and shivered.Seeing that Chenggong was disgusting to her, Yixi proudly scooped up a big scoop of ice cream, put it in her mouth and narrowed her eyes enjoying it.Xia Xintong looked at the ice water in hand, and then at the blueberry jam on her ice cream, feeling a stomach ache.

Damn, I really want to eat.

Xia Xintong has a fat-prone physique, and she will gain weight if she eats a little more, but as an actor, she must maintain a good body shape.As the saying goes, a photogenic person is three points fatter. If you want to look slim on the screen, you have to be thinner.Since she was admitted to the film academy, she has been implementing a strict diet plan, and she has been stricter when filming. It is only through this that she can maintain a slender figure.

This time, she was acting as a lady in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Zhou Xingfang didn't want a scrawny actor, and even asked a few girls to gain weight. As a result, Yixi lived a happy life and could eat half an extra serving of sweets every day.But Xia Xintong didn't dare to do this. Zhou Xingfang really didn't want them to be too thin, but it was impossible for the actors to get fatter.Her requirements can be explained as follows: it can not only show the charm of the Tang Dynasty, but also conform to the modern aesthetics. It is very demanding.

She decided to change the subject and stop torturing herself, "The actors involved in the first half are almost in the group now, right?"

"Except for a few tricks, it's about the same."

"Then tell me, when will Director Zhou plan to tell us who is Tang Gaozong's actor? There are more than a dozen versions on the Internet, and I'm really scratching my head!"

Her tone was a little depressed.Seeing that it has been more than half a month since the start-up, the actors of the young Tang Gaozong have not been exposed yet, and even the insiders like them have not gotten the slightest word.And according to her experience, if she suppresses news to this extent, the final result must be quite astonishing.

Yixi said: "Director Zhou revealed in an interview a few days ago that he is an unexpected candidate, and he is very famous. I am actually thinking these days, could it be that the big name she has previously promoted has come back as a guest star? "

It's not impossible to think that Zhou Xingfang is kind to several current top male stars, but...

"Young man Li Zhi, don't you have to be young? If she can accept being tender, she won't choose you, and just let Han Meng finish the whole performance..."

What Xia Xintong said made sense, Yixi fell into deep thought.Just at this time, the door of the dressing room was pushed open, and the actress who played the role of Queen Wang rushed in. She was so excited that her voice was shrill, "Quick! Go to the meeting room! You can never imagine who Director Zhou is talking to right now." Fuck, it turns out he is playing our husband!"

Yixi and Xia Xintong looked at each other, and they both saw a light called "excitement" on each other's faces.Without a word of nonsense, the two rushed to the conference room at a whirlwind speed, and sure enough, they saw a large group of women gathered at the door, both dressed as court ladies and concubines, all crowded at the window to look in.

Xia Xintong patted one of the girls on the shoulder, "Who is so and so? Who is it!"

She has kept it secret for so long, but she is willing to say it, she wants to see if those revelations are accurate!
The girl turned her head, her face was full of red light, and her eyes were full of little stars.She stared at Xia Xintong for three seconds before stammering: "Cai Cai Cai... Cai Jiehong! It's Cai Jiehong!"

Cai Jiehong.
