678 Severing One’s Future
The sound engineer, Xiao Mu, was busy at the side. When she heard this, she responded and walked over. She sat in front of the computer table and started debugging and activating a pile of equipment. After a while, she was done. She looked at Director Chen and spoke.
“Alright, Director, you can start now.”
The director nodded and spoke to Sixth Sister Ye Meng.
“Then let’s start on the count of three, Miss Ye.”
Sixth Sister Ye Meng did not say anything. She stood in front of the microphone and nodded at the director to indicate that she was ready. Then, she heard the director shout, “Three, two, one.” The recording began.
“Classical and modern trends blend together. The Yalan Rose enriches the lives of women.”
“A thousand-year-old herb can nourish one’s appearance. The youth in your genes can be triggered at any moment!”
“The Vigorous Orchid Rose is rich in natural factors. It leaps and shines. Stop and enjoy beauty!”
The several advertising slogans were directly in place at once. The tone was very compatible with the scene, causing the sound engineer and the director to be stunned. They could not help but sigh in their hearts. As expected of the Best Actress. Her ability was really unquestionable.
After all, who didn’t like people who could do well in one go? It saved time and effort. They didn’t even need to tune the audio. It was simply too satisfying. Both sides felt very comfortable.
“Is that alright, Director?”
Sixth Sister Ye Meng was still a little unsure of how she had performed, so she asked the director. The director quickly nodded and praised her.
“That’s enough, that’s enough. It’s really too perfect. Hehe, it was done in one go. With Miss Ye’s foundation, I think we can let the tuner take a break.”
Hearing this teasing, Sixth Sister Ye Meng pursed her lips and smiled. Then, she moved to the green screen and looked at the director.
“Then let’s start the next one. What should I do?”
“Oh, it’s like this. Let me show you.”
As the director spoke, he walked up and began to demonstrate the actions of the three scenes.
The actions were very simple. Compared to filming movies, it was simply too simple. Therefore, Sixth Sister Ye Meng knew it at a glance. Then, she nodded and spoke to the director.
“Alright, I understand. Let’s begin.”
Director Chen still believed in the capabilities of the Best Actress Ye Meng, so he wasn’t too worried. He nodded and returned to the computer. He nodded at the cameraman, indicating that they could start.
It was also Sixth Sister Ye Meng. If it were anyone else filming, the director would not do it even if he was beaten to death. He had to train the actor for half an hour and rehearse until there were no mistakes before he could start.
“Okay, three, two, one, go!”
With Director Chen’s order, Sixth Sister Ye Meng began to walk the runway. She walked from the right side of the green screen to the left. Then, she suddenly turned around and looked at the camera. She raised the Yalan Rose lipstick in her hand.
Then, she went to the sofa and sat down. She took out the lipstick she had prepared and put on makeup. Then, she lowered her head and slowly raised it to look at the camera so that she could show the color on her lips.
After pausing for a few seconds, she picked up a magazine on the coffee table and started flipping through it. Then, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at the camera. She picked up the Yalan Rose lipstick and moved her mouth, but she did not make a sound.
The director was very impressed by her acting skills. It could be said that she was the Best Actress. There was nothing to say about her skills. She completed the entire take and only took a few minutes.
Her stage presence was too stable. There was no loss of self-control brought about by the change in scenes or actions at all. Throughout the entire take, there were no flaws. It was perfect.
Moreover, the way she displayed herself was especially beautiful. It was simply the most suitable match with the Yalan Rose lipstick. It felt like a combination of the person and the product, making the director praise it endlessly.
Therefore, he immediately shouted, “Cut!” Then, he went forward with a smile and praised Sixth Sister Ye Meng.
“As expected of the Best Actress Ye Meng. Miss Ye, your acting skills are really amazing. There’s nothing to say about this scene. We don’t even need to modify it. We just need to add some post-production special effects and edit it. It’s really not bad.”
Seeing that the director was satisfied, Sixth Sister Ye Meng smiled. As an actress, she first had to satisfy the director while filming. Second, she had to satisfy the audience.
It was the greatest satisfaction to see them satisfied and be praised.
“It’s good that there’s no problem. I was worried that I didn’t act well.”
“No, no. There’s no problem at all. It’s perfect.”
The director hurriedly smiled and praised her again.
Meanwhile, when the CEO of the company, who was watching from the side, saw that there were no problems and that the filming was done, he leaned over and looked at Ye Meng respectfully.
“Miss Ye is indeed the Best Actress. Your solid foundation is really shocking. Miss Ye didn’t even rest when she arrived and immediately started working. I feel a little bad. How about this? I have a banquet over there later. Why don’t we go together? I can welcome Miss Ye and feel more at ease.”
He knew Ye Meng’s identity. He had long understood that the Best Actress beauty in her twenties was the biological sister of Ye Xuan, the current chairman of the leading Chinese company, the Dinglong Corporation. Just this background was enough to make people revere her and change their expressions.
Therefore, he naturally did not dare to be negligent. He quickly invited her to the banquet to make up for it and treat her as a guest. After all, the sister of the Dinglong Corporation’s sister had come all the way to Shanghai to film an advertisement, but he did not even prepare a glass of water for her. If word got out, no matter what the truth was, it would be at the end of his career as the CEO.
Rumors were scary. Rumors could not be avoided with a clear conscience. In this society, many things could not be said clearly with words. It was very easy for ignorant people to believe what they heard and see some appearances. They would not investigate further.
To them, they felt that whatever they heard and saw was the truth. They took half of the words, videos, and so on before starting to publicize them wantonly. They went around telling others in detail and wanted the world to be in chaos.
What could they get? They couldn’t get anything. They just liked to watch the fun and see others get injured. Most fools were like this.
There were countless cases in society. For example, an emcee who had done nothing in the dressing room previously was framed by a woman for molesting her.
Had he really done it? He hadn’t done anything. Everyone could see the people coming and going in the dressing room.
However, just because of this sentence, this conscientious emcee, who had never done anything bad in his life, had his future ruined and was criticized by the entire society. The entire world was prejudiced against him. They did not expect him to do this.
