I Want to be Alone, Beautifully
Chapter 41
There were two days left before the press conference, and the news of the finalization of "Willow on the Palace Wall" spread, and there was an additional post on the Douban forum called Let's think about how acting like a baby got into this invincible lineup.
It lists the works and beautiful photos of many big names, and put them at the end...
It was Xu Jiao and her emoticons with hot eyes.
The host pissed off, and said at the end: In my opinion, the works played by Xu Jiao are not as good as these emoticons in terms of popularity or level.
Below followed layer after layer of discussions——
"GQL is going to make an official announcement, do you know? I heard that there is an ancient relationship line in it, and it's actually XJ and FQY? Look carefully, carefully."
"The host is talking about "Willow on the Palace Wall", right? Director Zhen's latest new play is said to be an original script, but the scriptwriter has never been known, and the quality is not guaranteed. Director Zhen's eyes are not good. Actually asking Xu to act like a baby, I'm afraid it's not the back door of FQY?"
"Don't say things that people with a discerning eye know. I'm just curious. Isn't it said that Director Zhen is extremely picky in choosing people? This... Is this just saying that Feng Qingyu has a good relationship with him? But this drama Isn't it Qiu Yongli?"
"When our first brother Yantian died? It must be our beloved sixth master Lu Xun, okay? He won the Cannes Best Actor last year, and Qiu Yongli is not worthy of carrying his shoes."
"Isn't this thread discussing how Xu Sajiao got into this crew? Why is she still tearing up the show? Can the tearers move around? Or should we concentrate on spraying Xu Sajiao and her glue army?"
"Glue 23333 is her fan's ability to touch porcelain. This is not an ordinary glue. It has to be 502. You can see from fqy's experience in the past two years. It's really miserable to be forced to help the poor... I don't know if they will leave after a year. Don't leave, leave Xu Sajiao, who will be the next one? [Let me see who is so lucky to be selected by Sajiao.jp]"
"Fuck, I was suddenly scared when the upstairs said this! Wait! I suddenly remembered that my idol is just a mediocre Beta, and can't meet the requirements of Omega's estrus, hee hee hee! How lucky!"
"However, what did the poor Alpha stars do wrong to be attracted by Xu Sajiao?"
……
The news is out.
Feng Qingyu's backing fan group also had ellipses. Obviously, they were full of sympathy for their idols, but the marriage policy was obviously a national regulation, and they had nothing to do about it.
In the end, the fans discussed and reached a consensus: "Protect our Feng Qingyu! Don't let any fan of Fengjiao Rinuan come up in the topic square! Don't give p fans popularity! Let our sister Qingyu be beautiful alone!"
Compared with the joy and sorrow of the jade fans, Xu Jiao's "little wives" are full of joy and joy, wishing the whole world could share this joy with them.
Xu Jiao participated in Zhen Tiao's TV series!That audition was so perverted that Zhen Tiao's TV series was dismissed by many people!Why does our Jiaojiao have such a long face!
The "little wives" can't wait to announce this good news in the circle of friends, so that the whole world can celebrate with them. Xu Jiao's acting skills have made great progress, and she has been recognized by famous directors. Although she is only a supporting role among supporting roles, they His joy was as if Xu Jiao had won the three gold Grand Slams.
In the end, it was Ni Hong who got what Xu Jiao wanted, and spoke in the group with a big fan i:
"Low-key, let's be low-key, too much publicity will easily attract the jealousy of the opponent!"
"Director Zhen doesn't like actors who cause trouble before the show airs. Let's have fun in our square. Don't go out to trick Jiaojiao, let her focus on her work!"
Hearing Fantou's speech, the beautiful wives all made neat booing gestures, and obediently swiped the screen in the group:
"Protect the best and hardest Jiaojiao in the world! [爱心][爱心][爱心]"
"Protect the best and hardest Jiaojiao in the world! [爱心][爱心][爱心]"
……
Soon came the day of the press conference——
The crew of "Willow on the Palace Wall" has two protagonists, two important supporting roles, as well as the director and producer.
The male lead, Lu Xun, and the female lead, Qiu Yongli, are both the hottest stars this year. In the summer, the TV dramas they acted in were all hits. Love and hatred, Qiu Yongli and another actress starred in a legendary blockbuster movie about the future of Interstellar. Now that the news of the cooperation between the two has spread, there are constant topics of discussion.
Compared with their main relationship line, Feng Qingyu and Xu Jiao can also bring people topics.
But to everyone's surprise.
They found that Xu Jiao didn't seem to have made any troubles on stage, and even when the host deliberately asked her about her understanding of the script and characters, she was able to say something.
"The background of "Willow on the Palace Wall" is very far away in ancient times. Everyone knows that at that time, it was not like today. We human beings differentiated into six genders, and they were attracted to each other by pheromone. At that time, there were only men and women."
"The love between Empress Qi and Concubine Rong, in the eyes of people at that time, was taboo and unacceptable to the world, and the more taboo the feelings, the stronger they burned, like moths to a flame, tragic, And unforgettable."
When she said this, Xu Jiao's expression was calm, unlike in the past on the show, she would hand Feng Qingyu water for a while, and whisper to her for a while to attract the attention of the camera.
When interpreting the script and characters, her eyes were very focused, as if she was fully immersed in the plot.
Such a serious Xu Jiao suddenly made the audience in the barrage a little strange.
[Did Xu Sajiao go for plastic surgery?Why do I feel like she looks a little better? 】
[She hired a writer to write the speech today, right?Pretending to be literary, I vomit]
[Is it true that ancient humans could only fall in love with men and women? I'm so curious.]
[Today's Jiaojiao also makes me like it as always!come on!Play your own play and make others jealous! 】
[I don't know why, but I'm starting to look forward to her scene, am I crazy? 】
Not only the viewers who watched the live broadcast were distracted by her words, but even Feng Qingyu who was beside Xu Jiao unconsciously turned their eyes on her. Hearing her words describing Empress Qi and Concubine Rong Gui, Feng Qingyu's eyes became more gentle a bit.
The host smiled and asked again, "People at that time liked to write poems to express their emotions. If you were asked to describe Rong Qing in a poem, which one would you choose?"
Feng Qingyu tightened her grip on the microphone. She knew that Xu Jiao came to the entertainment industry before she even finished high school, and she didn't even read books on weekdays. The host's request was a bit tricky.
Zhen Tiao also looked over.
Just when Feng Qingyu was about to pick up the microphone, Xu Jiao smiled lightly, and she said slowly: "Actually, one poem can't finish talking about Concubine Rong, let me talk about the early stage... Yun Xiang's clothes are beautiful, and Chunfeng's clothes are beautiful." Revlon on the threshold. If you don’t meet at the top of Qunyu Mountain, you will meet at Yaotai under the moon.”
This is "Qing Ping Diao Part [-]".
Between the lines, it is all about Rong Qing's beauty.
After a pause, Xu Jiao said again: "Later..."
Feng Qingyu suddenly cleared her throat beside her.
Xu Jiao came back to her senses and knew that she couldn't reveal too much and wanted to leave the audience in suspense. The look of disappointment on her face was fleeting, and she put it off: "I won't tell you."
But someone in the live broadcast room still captured it clearly.
【I smell the breath of abuse】
[Strange, I suddenly want to know if Xu Sajiao's appearance is the same as what she said in this poem]
[I swear, I will only watch one episode, I am not supporting Xu Sajiao, the main reason is to see her acting skills hit the street and slap her in the face]
[In the first episode, I will definitely come to see how you act like a baby and get on the top spot]
……
The press conference ended successfully.
Director Zhen has achieved the purpose of publicity, and the next step is to let all the actors join the group, and finish the opening ceremony and process on a good day without stopping, and then start the first day of shooting.
Xu Jiao and Feng Qingyu are the first scene.
Before filming, Director Zhen followed Feng Qingyu behind the camera and said: "It's also fortunate that you two came here. If you change to other roles, it will be O. I will lock you together. I am really afraid that something will happen. It will be B. I am worried." You don't feel it."
"It's just right now, you two, you two, have skipped the step of cultivating your relationship. It seems that God ordained that this couple of lovers should be performed by you." He smiled and sighed.
Feng Qingyu's palms were sweating.
Before this, Xu Jiao had never confronted her in a scene. If the two of them failed in the first scene of the filming, the whole crew would feel that the beginning was not good.
Perhaps Director Zhen felt that this scene was the simplest, and it was a breeze for the two of them, but Feng Qingyu was a little uncertain.
It's not that I'm worried about my acting skills, but I'm worried that I won't cooperate well with Xu Jiao.
And this scene was performed in a cold water pool. After all, it is impossible for the crew to find a real hot spring for the two of them for a small set. The cost is too high, which means that they will have to be in cold water for as long as the film How long does it freeze.
For newcomers with little experience, this scene is a bit bitter.
She subconsciously looked at Xu Jiao in the dressing room next to her, only to find that the old man was there, wearing a soft silk dress, with her eyes closed and being moved by a makeup artist. No matter her expression or movements, she was not at all nervous.
When the makeup was finished, the person in thin clothes came over with a coat on. Seeing Feng Qingyu, Xu Jiao smiled at her. She didn't know how gorgeous her makeup was——
This smile seemed like the tentacles of spring stretched in, and the room was full of spring flowers blooming.
Feng Qingyu and her looked at each other, and suddenly Panasonic came a little bit, Xu Jiao was not nervous, so what did she have to be afraid of?
……
"The first shot and first scene of "Willow on the Palace Wall"! aion!"
Qi Yunshang is not in good health, and the queen mother sympathized with her difficulty, but this winter was very cold, so the emperor asked the emperor to take her to live in the palace. There are earth dragons to keep warm on weekdays, and there are large and small soup pools in the palace, where you can take a dip. The prescription prescribed by the Tai Hospital.
Hearing that the Empress was going, Concubine Rong Gui went to the Emperor's place to blow the pillow breeze. What she said was full of jealousy, and the embarrassing Emperor took her with her, and temporarily handed over the Phoenix Seal to the honest Concubine Ping in the palace. .
It is late today.
Qi Yunshang was soaking in the medicinal bath in the small soup pool, guessing that it was about the same time, he raised his hand to ask the maid next to him for a bath towel, but the hand that reached out was wearing a luxurious long finger cot covered with gold-plated flower clusters, It is not easy to know the identity at a glance.
Qi Yunshang's expression moved slightly, and she turned her head in surprise, but her eyes were covered by someone. The next moment, she felt ripples in the pool beside her, and another body slid down next to her like a snake.
The visitor lowered his voice and asked her softly, "Guess who I am?"
Qi Yunshang pursed her lips at first, but after a while, she still didn't hold back the smile on her lips, and scolded gently: "Why haven't you slept so late?"
Compared with the reprimand, this voice contained more affection.
Rong Qing let go of her hand, allowing Qi Yunshang to see the wet clothes on her body that vaguely outlined her exquisite figure through the dim light in the room, and put her arms around her neck, whispering:
"Shh."
"The emperor is being so fascinated by a little court lady that he can't find the north. He wants to take her to see the plum blossoms in the cold weather. The empress can't disturb the interest of the holy majesty."
……
Feng Qingyu's eyes fell on her, seeing that the neckline couldn't bear the weight of being wet by water, and it was about to hang down loosely, allowing her to see clearly the career line with many mountains and hills.
Suddenly, she looked away slightly, and continued to follow the lines: "Then you'd better be careful, it's late, you don't rest, what are you doing here?"
Xu Jiao blinked innocently: "The empress is so domineering——"
"This Tangquan Palace, only you are allowed to come, and I am not allowed to come?"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pushed Feng Qingyu against the porcelain floor tiles next to her. Under the shimmering water, she loosened her fluttering belt, and Feng Qingyu could clearly see the hem of her swaying clothes and her slender, jade-white legs. Chu.
This person is so graceful in the play, countless times better than those vulgar means of seducing her.
Feng Qingyu was in a daze for a moment.
At this moment, Xu Jiao's hand on her neck slowly walked down the side of her neck, submerged in the water, stopped at her waist, and moved a few inches to the side. At the same time, That sweet smell brought her coquettish yet domineering questions, and whispered into Feng Qingyu's ears.
The scorching breath is wetter than the tone of voice.
"Mother--"
She asked, "Here, can you let me in?"
It lists the works and beautiful photos of many big names, and put them at the end...
It was Xu Jiao and her emoticons with hot eyes.
The host pissed off, and said at the end: In my opinion, the works played by Xu Jiao are not as good as these emoticons in terms of popularity or level.
Below followed layer after layer of discussions——
