Chapter 604
604 Chapter 604-sacrifice
“The police are always so useless.” She took in Shen xuanran’s expression. She had dealt with Shen xuanran many times and knew how determined, persistent, and righteous she was.
However, this excellent quality seemed weak and pitiful in the face of reality, like a cold joke.
She lowered her eyelids, and her curled eyelashes blocked the thoughts in her eyes. She was like a mystery wrapped in fog. She was clearly close, but she couldn’t enter her heart.
more than ten years ago, my father was framed by Wu Chunhe. The police were helpless. As she said this, she chuckled. now that someone has died and there are two cases, the police are still at a loss.
When the woman spoke, she was smiling. She even freed one hand to push the wig that was already crooked. This action made Shen xueran feel a hundred times, ten thousand times more embarrassed than her sarcasm.”Yet, you suspect a weak woman like me.”
She was a weak woman? Shen xuanran was speechless. She felt as if there was a huge stone in her heart. It was so heavy that even breathing was difficult.
“I’ll keep an eye on you!” When she said this, she shouted very loudly, but she didn’t have much confidence. There was a sense of exasperation, and she lost her usual calm.”I will find evidence of your murder.”
It sounded like a loser’s nonsense and was extremely laughable, but she couldn’t say anything more suitable than this.
She was firmly suppressed by this woman. She was unwilling and unconvinced, but as she said, the police were powerless.
The suspect was right in front of her, and all she could do was say these meaningless words, which would not help the case at all.
Su Yi’s mocking expression made Shen xuanran feel helpless. As a police officer, the biggest setback was knowing that the person sitting in front of her was the real criminal, but because there was no evidence, she could only let the criminal get away with it. There was nothing that made Shen xuanran feel worse than this.
Huo Zhiming was amazed by this scene. There was no loud argument between the two women, no intense body movements, and no fighting. However, the intense atmosphere was far more exciting than a physical fight.
Even the gurgling water was immersed in the scene, adding tension to the scene. The scene of the two women acting together was more than a thousand words.
It was supposed to be an extremely intense scene, but the two of them managed to control their emotions and shoot it to a level that exceeded Huo Zhiming’s expectations.
Even though he was the one who had written the script, Huo Zhiming felt that Tao cen and Jiang SE’s current performance had already exceeded the limits of the plot.
Shen xuanran’s determination to win Su Yi over appeared in her eyes. It was as if she would take out her handcuffs the next moment and get hold of this woman. Even if Huo Zhiming knew that Shen xuanran had come out to meet Su Yi in private, Tao cen did not have any handcuffs on her when she was filming this scene.
Su Yi’s cat-and-mouse expression was present throughout the entire process. Under her nonchalant expression, she looked at Shen xuanran as if she was watching a show. Her pouted lips were full of amusement.
The two of them were evenly matched both inside and outside of the scene. Due to Tao cen and Jiang SE’s outstanding performance, the scene was completed in one take.
After this scene was shot, the main plot of ” a suspect ” was almost over. The staff who had witnessed the confrontation scene heard Huo Zhiming shouting, ”
“It’s very good,” Only then did he realize that the scene had already ended.
In the previous tense atmosphere, many people subconsciously clenched their hands into fists. Now that Huo Zhiming shouted “stop,” many staff members let go of their hands and realized that their palms were already sweating.
The camera had already been turned off. Huo Zhiming was excitedly watching the scene that had been shot earlier.
Jiang se took off the hood lazily. Her hair, which she had cut herself, had grown much longer over the past two months. She took a sip of her tea. When she heard Huo Zhiming’s cheerful and satisfied laughter, she turned to look at him with a smile.
“Do you know?” Tao cen did not know why, but he felt a little apprehensive.
Carolus’s shampoo brand is also considering me.
At this moment, she felt that she had to say something to Jiang se.
Carolus had been testing Jiang SE’s shampoo for years. Just as they were about to reach an agreement, the higher-ups of Carolus hesitated because Jiang se had cut her long hair. Tao cen forcefully opened up a path for her, giving her an additional right to compete for the top spot.
If it was in the past, she would have been very happy, but now she was not very happy.
Jiang se did not seem to care about her hair. She had just removed her head cover, so her hair was a little messy. However, her exquisite face that could make one’s heart race still held up her unkempt short hair.
Without the long hair that could have been the icing on the cake for her, Tao cen then noticed the delicate lines of her face. Her facial features were well-defined. When she lowered her head and smiled, it was difficult for people to pick on her flaws. Even Tao cen, who did not like her, could not deny the shocking feeling that her face brought to people.
“There will always be competition for good things. Everyone has opportunities.” Jiang se paused for a moment before she realized that Tao cen was talking to her. She said, ” “I’ve already heard about this from sister Chaoqun.”
She should have been indignant. She should have been burning with anger. However, her smile at this moment was like an invisible slap to Tao cen’s face. It made her look extremely embarrassed.
“It doesn’t seem like your style to give up so easily,”
She tried to provoke Jiang se as if she was trying to enrage her. It would be best if she could do what she was doing right now. Although she had managed to compete with Jiang se for the endorsement of Carolus, she still felt that she did not have enough confidence when she showed off in front of Jiang se.
“That’s not giving up easily.” even if you’re the spokesperson for Carolus, ” Jiang se corrected her, ” I’ve still received something better than the shampoo ambassadorship for Carolus.
As for what better things she had obtained, Tao cen probably knew in his heart.
The failure of ” suspect ” had a deep impact on Tao cen. In the field that she was good at and was confident in, ever since Jiang se had cut her hair, she had been feeling suppressed by her aura.
The feeling followed her like a shadow. Even though the movie was about to end and her scene with Jiang se was coming to an end, Tao cen realized that the feeling had not left her.
She was panicking and helpless.
Tao cen realized that in the past, no matter whether she had competed with Jiang se for her position in century Galaxy, her ranking among the Chinese movie fans, or for the endorsement deal, she had always maintained a sense of confidence that came from her rich and skilled acting skills. Now, she had specifically mentioned to Jiang se that she was the one who had secured the endorsement deal for Carolus and that it was time for her to win. Perhaps, behind her show-off … It was precisely because she had lost the confidence that she could overpower Jiang se in terms of acting.
She should not have filmed ‘suspect’. She had lost her most precious confidence.
Perhaps the trauma from this shoot would follow her for a long time. Perhaps in the future, she would constantly think about the process of this failure. It would become a hurdle in her future career, and she didn’t know if she could get over it.
“I didn’t expect you to really cut your hair.”
She moved her lips in an attempt to smile calmly like she always did. However, she tried a few times but could not do it. In the end, she gave up trying to smile at Jiang se.
Tao cen did not expect Jiang se to really cut her hair. She thought that Jiang se would do what the Assistant Director of ” suspect ” had requested and argue with Huo Zhiming to replace her real hair with a wig. She thought that this would cause a disagreement between the director and the actress.
She thought that by doing so, Jiang se would have some qualms during the shoot and would be constantly on guard against her schemes. It would not fit the character of Su Yi, who was reckless and reckless.
Tao cen had given it a lot of thought. However, she did not expect Jiang se to pick up the scissors and really cut her hair.
From the moment things went out of her expectations, she was already flustered. She lost out to Jiang se in terms of imposing manner. She did not expect that this incident would have a deeper impact on her than Jiang se did. It was to the extent that she was still mumbling some meaningless and incoherent words.
“I didn’t expect that ‘suspects’ would require me to cut my hair.” Jiang se drank half of the tea in her teacup. She picked up the teapot and poured herself some more.
“Don’t you think it’s a pity?”
Tao cen couldn’t help but ask as he looked at her hair.
“It’s a pity.” Jiang se glanced at Tao cen. At that moment, Tao cen’s expression was not relaxed. He had lost his usual calm and appeared rather stern.
The corners of her mouth seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. She tried to raise it several times, but in the end, it fell weakly.
The surrounding staff members gathered around the camera. They were amazed by Jiang se and Tao cen’s earlier performance.
but it will still grow, but there are some opportunities that only happen once. This allowed her to better understand Su Yi’s state of mind in ‘criminal suspect’. This incident also increased her resistance towards Tao cen. This feeling allowed her to integrate with the character’s state of mind in the plot. When facing Shen xuanran, who was played by Tao cen, she could perform better. Under her calm appearance, she concealed her aggressive heart.
Jiang se touched her head and combed her hair with her fingers. She was a girl as well, so it was inevitable that she would like to look pretty. However, her hair was too short. She scratched at it a few times, but she could not find a suitable style. In the end, she gave up.
when I was filming ‘the salvation of God’, I only joined the crew to play the role of Shireen. At that time, she had fallen into Laura’s trap. In the scene where she was set on fire, the flame had burned her hair. If she had not chosen to continue acting at that time, she might not have had the opportunity to become Laura’s substitute, let alone replace Laura and play the role of Lannie.
She had been able to convince chessaray not because of their friendship, nor because of a simple ‘hobby’.
Hearing this, Tao cen’s mood worsened. He asked her,
‘the salvation of God’ is going to be released soon. How are you going to convince the picky Western audience with your current state? ” I’ve read the novel ‘the prisoner’, ” she continued. Lannie’s long hair in the novel is completely different from your current appearance.
She paused for a moment. up until now, Cesare and the investors have not announced that they have kicked out Laura and let you replace Lannie’s role. I think you should be aware of the rejection from the European and American markets. How are you going to make the audience accept you? ”
“What does my appearance have to do with the role?” Jiang se could not help but smile. I’m not convincing the audience with my own image. Instead, I should be convincing them with my acting skills. I should be convincing them with my performance in God’s redemption.
Tao cen tried to disrupt her peace, but he did not know that the more she did this, the more she appeared to be losing her cool.
Jiang se did not expose him. After she said this, she put down her teacup and said softly, ”
“I’m very happy to be able to work with a senior like you in ‘suspect of crime’. I’ve benefited a lot from it.” After she said this, she did not care how Tao cen felt when he heard this.”I’m going to check out the previous shoot. Excuse me, miss Tao.”
The two of them were not friends. In Jiang SE’s opinion, their short conversation was about the same. She was willing to be convinced by the plot and cut her hair for a scene in ” suspect, ” but it did not mean that she could accept Tao cen’s intentions at the time.
She walked over to Huo Zhiming and the others. The staff made room for her and let her sit beside the camera to see her performance.
Tao cen sat in her seat. She placed her hands on the table and lowered her head. She did not feel any better because of her conversation with Jiang se.
She had a feeling that she was out of place in her surroundings. Shen xueran’s defeated state of mind in ” the suspect ” might have affected her and caused her to feel extremely upset.
After the filming crew finished off the green wine, mo Anqi and the others escorted Jiang se back to the hotel. Most of her luggage had been packed and sent back to the imperial capital a few days ago. She would have to pack the remaining daily necessities later.
Chen Shan poured some mineral water into the kettle. He then took out some green tea powder from the hotel refrigerator and prepared to brew it for Jiang se.
She sat on the single-seater sofa and looked up. The makeup artist grabbed her hair and clipped it with a clip.
“I’ll have a F * cked-up hairstyle after three to four months.” If Jiang SE’s face could be compared to a painting, then to the makeup artist, this painting was the work of a master who had poured his heart and soul into it. It was a masterpiece.
Her facial features were clear and beautiful. No matter how heavy her makeup was, she would always show different levels of beauty.
She was used to having long hair, and her style was either elegant or girlish, which was limited by her style. After she cut her hair, more possibilities appeared. “If there’s a need in the future, you can style your hair with hair extended.”
Xia Chaoqun looked far ahead. He must have noticed Jiang SE’s advantage after she cut her hair. Hence, after the Carolus endorsement deal was temporarily suspended, he immediately negotiated a partnership with Melovin, a French luxury-grade skin care product, for Jiang se.
