Gu Ran returned to the filming site with a smile on her face. She bumped into the livid -looking Director Zhou, who was holding the script in one hand and glaring at her. “Did you run to outer space to change your costume? Everyone is waiting for you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Director Zhou scrutinized Gu Ran in her costume and was stunned for three seconds. Then, he cleared his throat and said, “Hurry up and get your styling done. The filming is about to start! Stylist! Where is the stylist! Come over quickly.”

Gu Ran was pushed to do her styling.

Soon, Gu Ran, who had finished dressing up, returned. Even the director, who was used to seeing big scenes, could not help but praise her. Indeed, there was really a woman in this world who could look so graceful and ravishing. With Gu Ran dressed up as the female lead, Zhou Yao, the drama was already halfway to success.

“We’re filming the sixth scene today. Gu Ran, Meng Shen, come over. I’ll explain to you guys about the scene.”

The male and female lead sat together beside the director. Meng Shen obediently flipped open the script. The pages were densely filled with labels, and there were even a few spots that were thoughtfully marked in different colors. It was obvious that he had done his homework seriously.

As for Gu Ran, who was also the main lead, her script was as clean as if it had just been printed. Not to mention labels or notes, there weren’t even any creases.

Director Zhou’s heart, which had just begun to relax because of her appearance, hung in the air again. He would probably not be able to wrap up work today at least until midnight.

After patiently explaining the scene to the two of them, Director Zhou suppressed his anger and tried his best to look at Gu Ran gently. “Gu Ran, do you understand?”

“I understand!”

Director Zhou was speechless… It was obvious that she didn’t understand!

Forget it, let’s just film it first! If it didn’t work out, they can only rely on post-production editing.

“Come, let’s begin!”

Gu Ran, who had been standing in front of the set, suddenly perked up at the director’s woras.

Ten minutes later.

“Cut!” Director Zhou shouted for the seventh time.

The staff sized up the director’s expression and hesitated, not knowing if they should step forward to clean up. Director Zhou closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and waved his hand for the staff to step forward.

“Meng Shen, come here for a moment.”

Meng Shen walked over with a worried and stiff expression on his face. Director Zhou looked at him and could not bring himself to reprimand him. He could only point at the face on the screen and explain to him slowly about what he had not done well just now.

Although Meng Shen did not have much talent, he worked hard to improve. As he listened to the director, he did not forget to memorize every word.

After a while, Director Zhou was almost done. He called Gu Ran over again. “Xiao Gu, you acted very well just now. Let’s do another take. It’s best if you can maintain your previous state. If not, it’s fine if you make a mistake. We’ll select your best one during editing. ”

The low-budget web series did not have high requirements for the protagonist’s acting skills. Most of them relied on post-production editing. Gu Ran knew the industry and nodded to show that she understood.

“Okay, everyone in position. Let’s do another take.”

A few minutes later, Director Zhou shouted again.

Meng Shen had been led into the scene by Gu Ran this time. Although his performance was still unsatisfactory, compared to the previous few stumbles, he had finally gotten through the scene smoothly. A little editing could make do.

“Meng Shen, take a rest first. Gu Ran, you take on the next scene.”

The next scene had the same background. However, the actor in this scene had changed from Meng Shen to a senior. It was a scene between the female lead and her parents.

“Xiao Gu, don’t feel pressured. Just act normally. Even if your aura is a little weak, it doesn’t matter. We’ll edit the post-production.” Before going on stage, Director Zhou was afraid that Gu Ran would feel pressured, so he gave her a heads-up in advance.

“Oh, okay, I’ll do my best.’

Director Zhou yelled, “Come, let’s begin!”

In the next two hours, Director Zhou did not even call for a single retake. Gu Ran and her senior’s scenes were all completed in one go. In half a day, they had already completed all the shooting for the entire day. They had all acted very well.

In the last scene, to be honest, even Director Zhou could tell that Gu Ran hadn’t put in her best effort. Because her seniors could no longer continue, she had stopped trying her best.

“Is this really Gu Ran’s first time filming?” Director Zhou muttered to himself. “This is the epitome of the saying that the ancestors are clamoring to feed a descendant..”
