346: The Three Chapters Pact (14) 346: The Three Chapters Pact (14) Speaking of which, Director Li was getting a bit irritated.
The project they were filming was an urban youth idol drama, with virtually no dangerous scenes and no need to hire a bunch of stunt doubles like one would for a martial arts series.
Moreover, having moved to a new filming base, everything was new, advanced, comfortable, and the privacy was excellent.
However, it also ant that there weren’t many stunt actors nearby that they could call at a mont’s notice in case of an ergency.
The set fell silent, then, Jiang Xuanqi laughed again, “Actually, there’s no shortage of substitute actors.
Even if they’re not professional, all you need is soone to fill in for a bit.
In my opinion, Zhang Ying’s figure isn’t much different from mine.
In fact— isn’t there a ready substitute right here?”
As she spoke, her gaze intensely fixed on Jian Anning!
Following her gaze, Director Li and the others looked over as well.
Indeed, Zhang Ying didn’t resemble Jiang Xuanqi in looks, but their figures were quite similar.
Plus, the last ti Jian Anning temporarily took on Jiang Xuanqi’s role, she surprisingly received a positive response!
Director Li was sowhat tempted, “Anning, could you possibly help us out?”
Jian Anning frowned slightly; she wasn’t too keen on the idea.
She had only reluctantly stepped in last ti because Yu Zexiao, that idiot, couldn’t manage on his own.
She didn’t need the money and didn’t care for fa, showing no interest whatsoever in being a stunt double.
Besides, it was Jiang Xuanqi who had made the recomndation.
And as for her reasons—Jian Anning had read the script and knew that playing the second female lead ant getting slapped by Yu Zexiao!
Even though the slap would certainly not be hard, why should she volunteer to be hit by Yu Zexiao?
Without giving it much thought, she shook her head at once, “Director Li, as you know, I’ve never studied acting.
I really fear that if I perform poorly, I might hinder the progress even more, and wouldn’t that be even more troubleso?”
Director Li, of course, was aware that Jian Anning’s last performance might have been a fluke, given she never underwent formal acting training.
Frequent NGs could indeed slow them down.
But who else could step in to play Zhang Ying’s role now?
He approached her with resignation, “Anning, I’m truly asking a favor of you this ti.
You know that ‘Rock Youth’ is a weekly series, and this scene is critical.
I wouldn’t trouble you if Zhang Ying hadn’t injured her leg at this ti.
Here’s the deal, If you perform well in this scene, I’ll invite you to act in my next movie!”
As soon as he said this, many people around beca enviously flushed!
In recent years, Director Li’s career has been on an upward trajectory.
The movies he has directed have all been successful both critically and comrcially.
Many actors and actresses, eager for a part in his movies, have been clamoring for the opportunity.
Unexpectedly, he was showing such interest in Jian Anning!
An actor favored by Director Li was set to soar to great heights!
Many thought that although Jian Anning was following Yu Zexiao, what could be better than being promoted by a renowned director?
A crowd watched Jian Anning, their eyes red with envy, wishing they could throw themselves at the opportunity in her place!
Though, by taking on this role, she would be slapped in public by Yu Zexiao!
What should she choose, to accept or not?
Thank you to the generous patrons “A Few of You” and “Red-Faced Xiaoyun” for your rewards~
