I became famous in the entertainment industry by burning incense

Chapter 454: Dawn Wraps

Bai Jiang looked indifferent and asked, "She is the second female lead in the crew. Isn't it normal for me to have a good relationship with her?"

This question made Xu Ting stunned.

Bai Jiang is the male lead and has no conflict of interest with the second female lead. Only she, the female lead, has conflicts with the second female lead in terms of roles.

Since joining the crew, Bai Jiang and Jinli have had a faint relationship. She thought Bai Jiang chose to stand by her, but now it seems that is not the case?

Xu Ting said awkwardly, "We've already finished half of the shoot. It's too late to try to get along now."

Bai Jiang shook his head: "I didn't think she was that amazing when I was filming literary dramas before, but since I filmed the motion capture scenes, I know why the director kept praising Jinli."

Before filming the motion capture scene, he had watched Jinli's performance on camera and thought it was just so-so, and he could do it too.

But it wasn't until I went to shoot the film that I realized that this was not the case at all.

It is difficult to wear heavy clothes and keep your movements neat and quick without looking bloated or deforming your posture.

If you watch Jinli's performance again at this time, you will know how accurately she divides and controls the movements.

Bai Jiang felt that Jinli's physical strength was not very good and she could only show her strength for a few minutes. Otherwise, she could have taken on a martial arts scene independently.

But her lack of physical strength is not a problem at all in the movie, especially since she is the second female lead.

The second female lead has fewer roles, and in order to concise the plot, only the most important plots are often described, which makes it seem that every time she appears in a plot, she is just showing off her power.

Although those action scenes are only a few seconds long, if they are shown separately, it will only make people feel that Jinli's martial arts scenes are very powerful.

Only after Bai Jiang experienced the difficulties of martial arts scenes personally did he realize that the director's praise was not unfounded.

To be honest, if he were the director, he would prefer actors like Jinli.

Jinli's talent in motion capture and even action scenes is completely visible. If she doesn't build good relationships with others now, does she have to wait until others become successful before building good relationships with them?

Martial arts scenes have always been the most distinctive banner of Chinese films, and are also the reason why Chinese films are famous both at home and abroad.

This kind of drama not only has Chinese characteristics, but also shows the power of China, and the plot is also very well designed.

Bai Jiang believes that after "Dawn" is broadcast, Jinli will definitely receive invitations to martial arts movies.

If this kind of film becomes popular internationally, its influence will not only be in China, but throughout the world.

Xu Ting looked at Bai Jiang, "I thought that after you realized how good others were, you would strive to catch up, instead of -"

She paused, without finishing her words.

Bai Jiang smiled indifferently and said, "Rather than surpassing her, I want to be friends with her. I'm not that arrogant. I know what type of movies are suitable for me."

With his face and acting skills, acting in youth films is his comfort zone.

Relying on the fame he gained in the youth film industry, his popularity has spread both at home and abroad, and he has many fans abroad.

If Director Chu wasn't so talented and his special effects films were not internationally famous, he wouldn't have accepted the role.

People have to step out of their comfort zone occasionally, try some new styles, and give the audience some freshness.

"Brother Jiang, it will be late if we don't go for dinner now." Bai Jiang's assistant suddenly came over from somewhere else and said anxiously.

Bai Jiang ended the topic with Xu Ting and said, "I'm going to eat first."

Xu Ting raised the corners of her mouth and smiled at him, but quickly softened her smile after he turned around.

The new assistant was very cautious and didn't dare to speak carelessly. He only asked Xu Ting in a low voice where she wanted to eat.

Xu Ting said calmly: "Pack it up and eat it at the hotel."

After the assistant left, Xu Ting's face was expressionless, her brows were slightly furrowed, and her expression was solemn.
-
Jinli returned to the hotel.

There was a play in the afternoon, so she did not do any exercises at noon. Instead, she picked up the character biography she had written and read it to get a feel for the play.

It's been a month since I last filmed a movie, but Jinli feels like the days of filming were just yesterday.

Ever since she worshipped Zhong Kui, she has been full of energy and her thinking has been smooth. Now she can switch to filming without any hindrance.

And her body hadn't experienced high-intensity exercise for a while, Jinli found that she was quite looking forward to it.

Filming is very tiring. A scene may have to be shot over and over again, and the actors may feel a little exhausted by the end of the filming.

But Director Chu pays more attention to the sense of smoothness when filming. He doesn't like shooting short clips and prefers to shoot long clips.

As long as she performed without making mistakes, Director Chu would rather let Jinli shoot a long segment smoothly.

After Jinli got used to this shooting mode, she not only felt that it was efficient, but also that she did not feel mentally tired. Instead, she felt a sense of challenge.

Will she be able to do this afternoon's scene in one take? Will she be able to shoot a few more scenes in a row?
In the afternoon, crew A.

Jinli was finally able to put on motion capture suits and shoot with Bai Jiang and Xu Ting.

Previously, her filming progress was too fast and she had almost finished all the solo scenes. This time she was called back to shoot a three-person scene.

These scenes are very easy. Where the male and female protagonists are present, the second female lead is usually just a background board.

But there are one or two scenes where the second female lead has more limelight than the male and female leads, but such scenes are rare and only last for a few seconds at most.

Jinli and the others did a trial shoot first. This time everyone just walked around and said their lines, but nothing serious happened.

Director Chu looked at the scene once and thought there was no problem, so he let them start filming.

"Crack!"

After only a few seconds of filming, Xu Ting, the female lead, was interrupted by the director before she could even finish her words.

Xu Ting walked over automatically, thinking it was her problem.

But Director Chu called Bai Jiang and Jin Li over and showed them the footage.

After reading it, he asked, "Did you see anything?"

Bai Jiang and Xu Ting frowned, not quite sure about their guess.

Jinli said it directly: "Director, am I too prominent in the picture?"

Director Chu nodded: "It's not too much, but as soon as you stand on the court, you attract everyone's attention. Your manners and temperament are so good."

Speaking of this, Chu Chenliang was also a little puzzled.

According to Jinli, she had been studying in seclusion for the past month. After seeing her, he felt that she was in good spirits. Studying could actually nourish her spirit.

After filming started, he found that Jinli's manners and temperament had changed in the camera. She was too conspicuous, and at first glance she seemed upright, down-to-earth and reliable.

Chu Chenliang couldn't help but ask: "Did you go for training?"

Jinli shook her head: "No, I'm studying and doing exercises, and I have live broadcasts every day."

Chu Chenliang also found it strange. Can a person's temperament really change so quickly?

Jinli felt that perhaps the influence of Zhong Kui's magical power was still lingering on her, so she looked particularly upright in the camera, which made people feel at ease.

Jinli quickly came up with a solution: "Director, please change my makeup and make my skin darker."

Chu Chenliang frowned: "You want to let the makeup..."

After these words were spoken, Bai Jiang was fine, but Xu Ting's mentality became a little unsettled.

This was the first time she had to put on makeup after filming for so many years.

Even if they had not gotten along with the actresses before, they all relied on their own abilities to grab the spotlight, or asked the screenwriter to revise the script and give them a better plot.

But let the makeup...

This makes me look incompetent.

As an actor, she cannot outperform the other party in acting, so she can only use this unorthodox method, which will also affect the visual experience of netizens. Xu Ting frowned and said, "Director, you don't need to put on makeup, right?"

As an actress, she still wants to surpass Jinli with her acting skills.

Jinli only said: "If your skin is darker, it won't be too noticeable."

If she wasn't too "bright" in the camera, Jinli wouldn't have suggested changing her skin color.

In this scene, she only needed to be a bystander, watching the male and female protagonists talking, and then looking at the background outside the window, which was originally just a background board.

Why does she have to be so pretty?

If this scene is an important role for Ruan Ruanruan, she will definitely not let go of her makeup.

Chu Chenliang thought for a moment and said, "Take it again."

Ten seconds later, Director Chu shouted "Cut" again.

He frowned and asked the makeup artist to make Jinli's makeup darker, and then continued filming.

This time, they filmed the entire scene.

Director Chu called them over again and asked them to watch the scene after makeup was done. Everyone thought that the latter version highlighted the male and female protagonists more.

The makeup change was decided.

Jinli asked the makeup artist to paint her face a little darker from now on. Since her subsequent scenes were all multi-person scenes, when she needed to stand out, she would ask the makeup artist to add some loose powder to highlight the spots.

The makeup artist was shocked when she learned of Jinli's request. She had never seen an actress take the initiative to ask to make herself ugly. Jinli really has no idol burden!
After Jinli went to film, the makeup artist quietly talked to others about this matter.

Now, many staff members in the crew knew about the "Jinli giving up her makeup" incident, and they all praised her for being magnanimous, responsible, and kind.

"She doesn't want to embarrass the heroine. Her acting is too much for a supporting actress and can't highlight the heroine's strength. She can only make herself uglier."

"Do you think Jinli has become more beautiful after coming back this time?"

"Yes, my complexion has improved and my temperament has become more outstanding!"

"Jinli is the one who knows the big picture. The other actors only think about how to grab the spotlight and don't understand the artistic expression of film and television dramas at all!"

Jinli's reputation in the crew has become even better.

While filming, Bai Jiang tried to solve the problem in his mind, but he found that he could not concentrate at all.

He was thinking about solving the problem in his mind, and when he was filming, his brain was confused, as if he was still thinking about solving the problem, and various Arabic numerals kept spinning in front of him.

Imagination is not seen, but distraction is obvious.

Because he was distracted, Director Chu criticized him twice, and Director Chu even said angrily: "If you are still in this state tomorrow, then you don't need to come tomorrow!"

How dare Bai Jiang not come?
He knew that the director was just speaking in anger, as two-thirds of the film had already been shot and there was no way he could change the cast no matter what.

But Director Chu is a big director, and even though he is a first-line actor, he doesn't want to offend the director.

So the next day he not only came, but also came very early. The whole time he just looked at the script and got himself in the right state of mind.

He didn't dare to even touch any of those math problems!
-
"Crack!"

One day in early December, with Director Chu shouting through a loud speaker, Jinli's last scene in "Dawn" was finished!

"Congratulations to Jinli for finishing the filming!"

"congratulations!"

"I wish every drama Jinli shoots will be a big hit!"

Some staff members presented Jinli with flowers and bought a big cake.

Jinli took it unexpectedly and kept saying thank you to the staff who came to bless her.

She found time to ask Chen Qin, and Chen Qin smiled and said, "No, didn't I ask you before if you wanted to send me something on the day of your final shooting? You said there was no need for these formalities, so I didn't prepare anything for you.

Someone from the crew came to me and asked if I wanted to order flowers for you, and I said no, these things were prepared by the staff on their own initiative. "

Chen Qin didn't expect that Jinli was so popular in the crew.

Jinli only filmed for ten days after returning.

During these ten days, her role appeared together with the male and female protagonists, so she was often in the crew.

Jinli felt that the crew members were very friendly to her and even prepared gifts for her. She was very touched and quickly asked Chen Qin to go out and buy some gift boxes.

She wanted to prepare one for each staff member as a token of her appreciation.

That night, all the staff, including the director, actors who could be named, and extras who could not be named, received a fruit gift box from Jinli.

They are all high-end fruit gift boxes, each costing at least three hundred yuan.

Xu Ting looked at the gift boxes and her face darkened.

Whoever finishes filming will give gifts to the whole crew, Jinli is ruining the market!
Xu Ting was not willing to pay this money, as her money did not come from the wind.

Jinli's scenes have ended, but the male and female protagonists' scenes will still take about a month to shoot.

Xu Ting thought about it carefully. She didn't want to lose face, but she also didn't want to spend too much money, so she asked her assistant to find a purchasing agent.

Purchase some duty-free products that are very expensive in China but very cheap abroad.

She plans to give these to everyone as wrap-up gifts.

Bai Jiang was not as conflicted as Xu Ting. He had never thought about such things at all!

In the crew of his previous filming, only the actors would prepare gifts when they finished filming, but no actors would give gifts to the crew when they finished filming.

So after he finished filming, he didn't prepare any gifts for the crew members, only Xu Ting prepared one.

If he didn't give it, the people in the crew wouldn't think he should give it.

But since Xu Ting gave it to her, everyone couldn't help but compare her gift with Jinli's and found out that she was really stingy.

"This lipstick only costs fifty yuan abroad, and the one she gave me is about to expire. It can only be used for two months. What's the point of having this kind of lipstick?"

"I don't even know if I'll get 20 or 30 bucks, so I might as well not give it."

"Xu Ting is not as generous as Jinli. Jinli is very generous."

...Jinli didn't know about these later stories.

The day after she finished filming, she left the crew and returned to Chenxi Entertainment.

Jinli came out of the airport and called Sister Fang in the car to deal with matters related to the joint name. Sister Fang said:
"The Black Bear co-branded backpack and Fanghua co-branded spring ready-to-wear products have been made and were just delivered to the company yesterday. You can come to the company later to take the samples back. If there are no problems with the samples, we will start discussing the details and sign the contract. We will start production next year."

Jinli replied while doing the questions: "Okay."

"Also, Director Chu's assistant just called me and said that you may need to reshoot some scenes before the movie goes online. I agreed."

Jinli: "Well, this is what I should do."

The completion of a movie does not mean it is completely over. Before it is released, the actors may be called to reshoot at any time.

This is written into the contract, and even if the actor's schedule is busy, he or she has to make time for it.

Sui Lingfang: "By the way, Maozhua Live contacted me and asked if you can attend the online meeting tomorrow. They have something very important to report to you."

"Cat's claw?" Jinli asked curiously, "What's the matter? Is it about the live broadcast?"

Sui Lingfang shook her head: "No, it's about the Knowledge Planet."
