304 The makeup
Jiang SEâs stunning entrance in â the occasion of Beiping â had left the man in his forties stunned for a long time. She had left a deep impression on him. When he found out that she would be the one to film his movie, he was both worried and delighted.
She was happy because Jiang se was now very famous and had many fans. She had just accepted the role in this movie, but it had already created a lot of talk and attracted a certain amount of attention. This was the effect that many movies would only achieve if they spent a large sum of money on publicity.
He was still a newbie, and he wrote â demon â with passion. He attached great importance to his first script that could be adapted and put on the big screen.
Apart from the fact that this was his blood, sweat, and tears, and he didnât want anyone to waste it, it would also affect his future life.
He wasnât young anymore. He wasnât good-looking, and his family wasnât well off. He was nearly forty years old, but he still didnât have a wife. His life was difficult, and no woman would like him.
However, once â demon â became popular, his life would be different in the future. Not only would this drama bring him a lot of popularity, but it would also be crucial to the sales of his future works.
If âdemonâ did well after it was released, there would be countless people asking him for scripts in the future, and his income would not be comparable to the current one.
He was happy that the movie had a huge investment and two big stars as the main leads even before filming started. This was almost one of the guarantees of the box office.
However, at the same time, he was also worried. He was worried that Jiang se was too beautiful and too young. He was afraid that she would not be able to act like Zhang Yuqin in his drama.
It was because of this uncertainty that when he found out that century Galaxy had already decided on the main actors for the male and female lead, he was actually half happy and half sad.
However, the complete copyright of the drama had been bought by century Galaxy, so he had no room to say anything. Naturally, he was not qualified to make any comments.
It was a good thing that Zhao rang thought highly of him. He was allowed to follow the crew for this shoot and would ask for his opinion on certain issues. It was only when he saw Jiang se with his own eyes today that his heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled down.
When he first saw Jiang se, he could not believe his eyes.
Jiang SEâs image was completely different from the one he had seen on the big screen. She was too skinny!
The long dress looked empty on her body. She was so thin that she was only left with a bunch of bones. She did not have the unparalleled magnificence that she had when âevent of Beipingâ appeared. It was only later that he heard that she had lost 17 pounds for âthe demonâ in order to achieve Zhang Yuqinâs feelings.
From that moment on, regardless of how the author named Yu Weizhong felt about Jiang SEâs appearance in the film, Jiang SEâs willingness to lose weight had already left a good impression on him.
In addition, although they were meeting for the first time today, Jiang SEâs attitude toward working together was different from the superstar he had imagined.
She didnât say much, nor did she chat with people, but she had a good attitude when working. She didnât complain at all from 3 p.m. To 9 p.m.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I thought that most celebrities were delicate. I didnât expect her to be able to endure such hardship.
Yu Weizhong sighed, and the scriptwriter smiled and shook his head.
this is Jiang SEâs third time working with director Zhao. If it werenât for the fact that they know each otherâs personalities, the filming for this drama wouldnât have started so quickly.
He was an employee of Zhao rangâs studio, so he was no stranger to Jiang se. He knew that Zhao rang had a good impression of her. Ever since they had worked together for the first movie, â the 99th love letter, â Zhao rang had intended to guide Jiang se because of her personality. However, even though she had been working hard until her head was red, her personality had not changed. It was indeed a rare sight.
After chatting for a while, Yu Weizhong looked at Jiang se thoughtfully. He rubbed his hands.
I wonder if I can take a photo with her after the movie. Iâm her fan, Yingluo.
The people around him laughed when they saw him like this.
The filming schedule for the next few days had been very heavy. After Jiang se returned home, she went through her positioning in her mind. While mo Anqi was applying layers of skincare products on her body, Jiang se picked up the script lines that she had prepared for tomorrowâs shoot and went through them again and again. She also tried to figure out Zhang Yuqinâs mood. After drying her hair and checking the time, she went to bed.
No matter how late she went to bed, Jiang se still woke up at eight o âclock sharp.
When she arrived at the set, Zhao rang had not arrived yet. Some of the theater staff had already arrived and were moving the props and other items.
Xia Chaoqun followed beside Jiang se. When many people saw her face, they automatically retreated and did not dare to approach and harass her.
The costume that was prepared for Jiang se was hung on the rack. Due to the uniqueness of her character, this was just a black professional dress. However, due to Zhang Yuqinâs financial situation and other factors, the dress was half-new and worn. Some parts of the dress were already worn out and had fur on them. The costume was a little loose. The costume designer smiled and said, â
âOther peopleâs costumes are as exquisite as possible, but director Zhao asked for this piece to be as old as possible.â
In order to make it old, the crew even rented a mixer to mix it for a long time before it had this kind of old and real texture.
âAfter all, it is not easy to find such old clothes nowadays.â
The costume designer stuck out her tongue and said, â
brother Liao also complained that the cost of this project was quite high. He wondered if the investment company would be angry after reporting it.
Renting a mixer truck every day was not a cheap expense, not to mention the expenses for plane tickets, accommodation, extras, actors, crew members, the rental of the place, vehicles, and the construction of the film set. A dayâs expenses were like running water. Zhao rang had extremely strict requirements for this film, so his expenses were even higher.
The total cost of the props alone was already close to hundreds of thousands. The price of making these âold clothesâ was much more expensive than new clothes.
Mo Anqi laughed out loud. The stylist chuckled along with her before accompanying Jiang se to her own makeup room.
This separate dressing room was specially prepared for her by the crew from a row of bungalows. She was now considered an A-list actress in the crew, and the other extras and supporting actors were in the temporary dressing room outside.
The production crew had brought a fan for her, but the house was still stuffy. Jiang se was drenched in sweat after she changed into her costume.
Zhang Yuqinâs identity in the film was already a mother of a child. According to Yu Weizhong, ZhuZhu was about eight or nine years old, while she was about thirty-three or thirty-four years old.
Such a woman should be at her most beautiful age, but because of the hardships of life, she should be showing signs of fatigue.
Her living conditions were not good, and she was not up to standard in terms of skincare. In addition, she was a salesperson for an insurance company and had to run around all year round. According to Zhao rangâs instructions the day before, her skin was not very good. At the same time, because she had lost her daughter, her complexion should be very bad, and she was pale.
