Shi Tian and Director Wang Wei were university classmates and had a good relationship. The main cast of “Dark Night” had long been decided, and Shi Tian had actually left the entertainment industry long ago. This
time, she was the one who took the initiative to look for Director Wang Wei to come over and guest star in a role.
Not only was Shi Tian the Movie Queen, her husband Liu Xingchuan was also the evergreen Movie King of the entertainment industry. In addition, the Shi family was a powerful family.
Although Shi Tian was only a guest actor, the entire cast and crew surrounded her and laughed with her.
When Xia Wanyuan came out after changing, Shi Tian was chatting with the cast and crew. When she saw Xia Wanyuan, Shi Tian pushed her cup forward. “I’m old and my arms and legs are useless. Miss Xia, can you
pour me a cup of water?”
With so many people around, Shi Tian thought that Xia Wanyuan would definitely pour for her, considering her reputation.
However, she still did not understand Xia Wanyuan at all. Xia Wanyuan directly ignored her and went to the filming location in her costume.
When the others saw that the situation was not right, they hurriedly tried to smooth things over. “She’s just a junior, she’s so clumsy. Let me help you pour.”
Shi Tian did not seem angry at all. She waved her hand. “It’s not a big deal.”
When it was time for filming, Xia Wanyuan roughly knew why Shi Tian had come today.
The snow fox played by Xia Wanyuan, because it had lost its memories, appeared innocent and gullible.
In the village, Second Mother Wang lost her chicken. After looking around, she suspected that Snow Fox was the culprit. Second Mother Wang was famous for being shrewish.
Today’s scene was where the Snow Fox was beaten by Second Mother Wang.
It was supposed to be a scene that could be done with a stunt double, but Shi Tian disagreed.
“When we were filming at that time, when did we ever use a stunt double? Those were all real fights. I, Shi Tian, have never faked anything when filming.”
As soon as she said this, Director Wang Wei was put in a difficult position. Shi Tian had been influenced by her family’s environment since she was young. Indeed, she had never used a substitute for filming, and she had
always acted on her own. As an actress, she was very professional.
But this Xia Wanyuan was tender and delicate. Director Wang Wei was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
“It’s fine, Director. You don’t have to use a substitute,” the silent Xia Wanyuan said.
“Alright, alright then.” Director Wang Wei gestured, and the cameras started filming.
“You vixen!” Shi Tian, who was dressed in flowery cotton clothing, was a movie queen after all. Her acting was very natural, and she portrayed the angry and unreasonable Second Mother Wang vividly. “Did you steal
my family’s chicken! Was it you!”
The pure Snow Fox hugged her own arm and looked up at Second Mother Wang from time to time. Its eyes were filled with fear and tears streamed down.
“Say something! I’ll beat you to death, you thief!” Shi Tian raised her hand and exerted all her strength. Shi Tian had martial arts skills. With this slap, Xia Wanyuan would not be able to recover from the injuries on her
face for at least half a month.
Even if Director Wang Wei was a straight man, he could tell that Shi Tian had gone too far. He was about to shout for her to stop.
The Snow Fox, whose face was filled with tears just a moment ago, was about to be slapped.
Suddenly, a confused look flashed across her eyes. It was as if something was about to escape from her mind.
In the next moment, her eyes were still filled with conflict, but her body reacted as if it was a conditioned reflex and quickly responded.
Xia Wanyuan grabbed Shi Tian’s wrist and nimbly flipped her around before smashing her to the ground.
Shi Tian had also trained before. She quickly reacted and adjusted her body’s angle so that she did not fall to the ground.
“Xia Wanyuan! You’re courting death!” Although Shi Tian did not fall, Xia Wanyuan had used some unknown force to squeeze her arm until it was numb.
Xia Wanyuan ignored her and turned to look at Wang Wei.
“Director, I changed the script a little. I think that although Snow Fox has lost her memory, her body’s conditioned reflexes are still there. What do you think?”
Wang Wei thought back to Xia Wanyuan’s performance just now. That kind of physical and psychological tug-of-war had been thoroughly displayed by her.
“Indeed!” Director Wang Wei looked at Xia Wanyuan in admiration. “The changes you just made fit the character’s characteristics better than the original script.”.
