CP is forcing me to have a wife, and the male protagonist asked me who he is

What do you mean?

Xie Zhuxin was really confused.

She didn't expect that even Pei Yuanqing, who ignored her, would recognize her acting skills because of the performance she felt was pretty good.

But in the eyes of the director, it turned out to be useless!

Use your brain but not your heart?

This is the first time for Xie Zhuxin to hear a director commenting on her performance like this!

This was also the first time that the director explicitly prohibited me from watching the monitor playback and from inquiring about the content of other people's scripts.

And, only for yourself!

Xie Zhuxin's eyes suddenly felt a strong soreness.

But she tried to hold it back.

Because she could sense that the eyes of the people around her were now focused on her.

There are those who sympathize, those who are doubtful, those who watch the show, and those who take pleasure in others' misfortunes. There are all kinds of them.

She didn't want others to see the joke, so she held her breath and finally controlled her facial expression.

Fortunately, director Chen Kexing was very busy and waved them away without saying a few words.

Xie Zhuxin returned to her performing position, feeling very depressed.

Since joining the crew of "Mu Guanyin", she has encountered few things that went well for her.

Even if her style is not as good as Deng Ruoyu's, her hair has been cut short, and the incomplete script has been taken away, and now she is not even allowed to watch the replays of the performance.

Although director Chen Kexing always smiles at himself, he doesn't seem to be dissatisfied with himself.

But she was never convinced.

Even when she was confident in her performance, he intentionally or unintentionally undermined her.

After doing it several times, even though she was the indomitable Xie Xiaolang, she felt a little tired.

"All departments prepare! Scene 6, first shot, second shot, action!"

After a while, the long shot started shooting again.

Only this time, Xie Zhuxin seemed a little unmotivated.

She had no intention of studying other people's performances and just stood there quietly.

When Pei Yuanqing stood in front of her with the camera, she raised her head slightly, with a trace of inexplicable confusion in her eyes.

"Why can't I be here? This is my home."

The lines are also spoken a little weakly.

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Xie Zhuxin felt bad.

Before filming started, she didn't have time to prepare for the role.

Although I followed the physical inertia of the previous performances, I finished my part.

But the low mood after being criticized by the director still remained in him.

This isn't a decent performance at all.

It seems that this one is going to be NG on my part!

Xie Zhuxin turned around and walked out of the camera uneasily, waiting for the director's "NG" sound.

But after waiting and waiting, the scene was still so quiet.

The camera had already passed briskly past him and Pei Yuanqing, and panned towards the sofa area at the other end of the dance floor.

The actors along the way all danced, chatted, and walked back and forth naturally in accordance with Director Chen Kexing's requirements during the rehearsal just now, just like a real dance party.

After successfully filming the scene where Mrs. Liang greeted the guests.

Mrs. Liang stood up and left the sofa, and took a wordless business card from the hand of the valet who had been waiting for a long time. Her expression immediately changed.

The shot ends with a close-up of this wordless business card.

"Cut! Passed!"

When the director's voice came from the intercom, the whole audience couldn't help but applaud and cheer.

Especially the actors who had just rehearsed repeatedly were so excited that they hugged each other.

I originally thought that this difficult long shot of a group scene would take at least a day.

Unexpectedly, I passed the test after only taking the third shot. Everyone was surprised.

Xie Zhuxin had a smile on her face and clapped her hands a few times, but she felt extremely unsure.

The performance just now was the one she felt she performed the worst, and she was not fully involved in the play at all.

Why did Director Chen Kexing give in?

She took several steps towards the director before she remembered that she was not allowed to watch the monitor playback, and couldn't help biting her lip heavily.

I saw other actors gathered around the director, watching the playback attentively.

She had no choice but to turn around and leave, hoping to find a quiet place to hide away, out of sight and out of mind.

But before he got very far, he was stopped by a rose-purple figure.

Xie Zhuxin raised his head and blinked in surprise.

"Sister Ruoyu, do you have anything to do with me?"

That's right, standing in front of Xie Zhuxin was Deng Ruoyu, who had previously refused to tell her the content of the script.

Deng Ruoyu nodded.

"Well, I have a few words to say to you alone."

Xie Zhuxin turned around and looked around.

Everyone on the scene was immersed in the joy of completing the long lens ahead of schedule, and few people noticed this.

So she nodded and followed Deng Ruoyu to a secluded corner and stood there.

"You know? In fact, I envy you very much. It can be seen that Director Chen Kexing values ​​you very much and is dedicated to cultivating you..."

The first words Deng Ruoyu spoke made Xie Zhuxin confused.

"Isn't it? You still envy me? From the clothes to the hairstyle and the script, am I the only one who envy you?"

Xie Zhuxin couldn't help blurting out.

"Look just now, the director, in front of so many people at the scene, didn't allow me to watch the monitor playback, and he also didn't allow others to tell me the content of the script——

"Why did he value me and cultivate me? I accidentally offended him and wanted to torment me, right? If it were you, would you do it?"

Deng Ruoyu shook her head and smiled.

Leaving a charming character like Liang Ning, she does not seem to have such a flamboyant personality, but rather has a cold temperament.

"As actors, we are not afraid that the director will deliberately torment you. What we are most afraid of is that the director ignores you, does not provide you with any space to perform, and is unwilling to spend energy on you.

"Although I don't know what kind of changes your script was made to, it's obvious to us onlookers that the director put a lot of extra thought into you just to help you play the role of Liang Zhen well."

Xie Zhuxin couldn't help but frown.

Extra thought?

It refers to tossing her, suppressing her, making her more difficult to stumble, and euphemistically calling it a test?

This isn’t bullying on set, it’s PUA in the workplace, right?

"I don't know what conclusion you came to from watching. Anyway, I don't know what my role is now, nor how I should perform it.

"I really don't know what kind of Liang Zhen the director wants! He didn't give me the complete script. He just told me to explore and grow with her, without using my brain, but with my heart!

"Ha! If it were you who played this role, would you be willing to be kept in the dark by the director like this?"

The more Xie Zhuxin talked, the more resentful she became.

It's not like she hasn't endured hardships while filming.

But no matter how hard it was, she knew clearly why she was suffering.

Instead of being blindfolded by the director, being directed around like a fool.

"I am willing!"

Deng Ruoyu replied seriously.

"If I had a choice, I would not play Liang Ning, I would rather play Liang Zhen! In fact, I mentioned this to the director before filming started, but unfortunately, he was not optimistic about me."

Xie Zhuxin was stunned.

She could feel that Deng Ruoyu meant what she said.

"Does the character Liang Zhen move you so much?"

To be fair, judging from the part of the script he got, Xie Zhuxin didn't like the role of Liang Zhen very much.

Born into a wealthy family, he had no worries about food and clothing.

Even though the situation was chaotic, things were not peaceful around her.

But with Yu Ze left behind by the general's father, the protection under the wings of his mother and sister, and the timely assistance of Chief Liao, he can always turn danger into good.

The few worries she has are probably homework, family and love.

Although very true for an adolescent girl.

But in Xie Zhuxin's view, it was somewhat unnecessary.

Would such an ordinary girl be more attractive than her charming sister?

Even Deng Ruoyu, who has successfully established a foothold in the film industry and is quite experienced in selecting scripts, did not hesitate to play this role?

Xie Zhuxin felt that he really needed to change his approach and study this character again.
