Ling Sheng was embarrassed, and her face turned red as a result. It was her fault. She was too unprofessional. There was nothing else to say except apologize.
Fang Hua had also realized that things had been fine at first. While the duo had been acting, the young lady’s condition had been very good. She had also gotten into character. The shy and expectant young lady’s heart had been portrayed vividly. However, when he had been about to kiss her, her demeanor had suddenly changed. Her body had stiffened, and her expression and actions had expressed her resistance.
“Director Chen, I’m sorry. Can I do it again?” Ling Sheng took a deep breath to relax.
It was alright.
If it really did not work out, she would think Teacher Sheng was the Third Master. It was just a kiss on the forehead. How could she compare to an old artist who had dedicated their life to art and film?
Sheng Xichen comforted her gently. “Don’t be nervous. I’m not a pervert. Just imagine I’m the person you like. Don’t people in the West kiss cheeks as a greeting? Just treat it as a normal form of courtesy.”
The young lady was too nervous. She had just entered the entertainment circle, so it was normal for her to be nervous when filming a kissing scene. She had performed well in the beginning, but when he had kissed her forehead, her demeanor had changed. Perhaps she was not used to it and just had to practice twice as much.
Following that, what Chen Mo asked her to do was so perverted that it angered everyone. He was particularly picky, but he might have really gotten angry at her. His request was so strict that everyone present started to pity her.
Assistant Director James felt that something was wrong with him. She had already acted very well, but he had to nitpick. He could not take it anymore.
Ling Sheng was a good person. She NGed again and again, adjusted her emotions, and continued filming. Furthermore, her emotions recovered very quickly, so she could enter character instantly.
Fang Hua frowned as her beautiful eyes stared at the crazy Chen Mo. He had gone overboard. He was deliberately causing trouble. Besides the last kissing scene, she had acted very well.
However, he would find faults in something all the time and interrupt the filming process before the kissing scene even happened.
Chen Mo did not think so. His face was red as he pointed at her. “You need to exude an inexperienced vibe. Your performance was excessive. Relax and do it again.”
Ling Sheng made an OK gesture.
Again.
“No, no, no. You’re fidgeting too much. Don’t add unnecessary expressions without permission. This isn’t adorable. This is acting, understand?” Chen Mo frowned and pointed at her nose.
Ling Sheng nodded and accepted it humbly. “I understand.”
Chen Mo’s handsome face was cold. “Do it again. Get ready. Move to the left.”
The cameraman calmly adjusted the camera position to the best angle. As a cameraman who had been working with Director Chen, he knew his temper well.
However, they had all realized that there was something wrong with his emotions. He had deliberately been finding fault in the young lady and making her film the scene over and over again. Clearly, all her expressions and actions were flawless. They did not know where he had detected so many problems.
Normally, people could tolerate his excessive pickiness, but since the young lady’s attitude toward the kissing scene wasn’t right, he had become stricter.
Fang Hua took a look at Gu Shen, who was standing beside her. She realized that his lips were curled up slightly, as though he was smiling. She did not know what he was happy about.
When Gu Shen sensed Fang Hua’s gaze, he hurriedly returned to normal. He looked at Ling Sheng, who was still in a good state. He had not expected her to have such a strong heart. She could remain calm while others pointed at her nose and scolded her. She had apologized repeatedly and filmed the scene again and again. Meanwhile, Director Chen Mo had scolded her and picked on her flaws. He was much stricter with her than he was with others, including Gu Shen.
