393 A Test of Your Acting Skills
Song Ci said with a smile, “Thank you, Teacher Chen.”
Chen Fuxing laughed.
“You’re welcome. Let’s rehearse our lines.”
Song Ci did not refuse. After practicing for a scene, she realized that Chen Fuxing’s acting skills were truly impressive. She sighed and said, “Your acting skills are excellent.”
Chen Fuxing smiled humbly. He thought Song Ci was decent too. Compared to her peers, it felt like she had more experience.
However, Director Liang mentioned that Song Ci had only acted in one other film before. How did she learn so much in such a short time?
‘She must be really hardworking.’
Before they could speak more, Chen Fuxing’s assistant came to fetch him.
“Little Song, take a rest first.”
“Can I tag along? I want to watch.”
“Sure.”
Chen Fuxing brought Song Ci along. After all, she could observe and take notes.
The scene Chen Fuxing was filming had him criticizing his own team members with sharp words. His change of demeanor from gentle to harsh was amazing. Even the onlookers were intimidated.
‘Luckily, Yu Ning doesn’t scold Yu Xiaoyue in the movie. Otherwise, I might end up crying!’
Suddenly, Song Ci noticed a woman who was standing not far away. She wore beige-colored clothes.
‘Isn’t she the girl who was crying at the staircase last night?’
Anyway, the young actor who was acting with Chen Fuxing messed up a few times. Director Liang had to do a couple of retakes. After their scene ended, it was Song Ci’s turn to act with Chen Fuxing.
Director Liang explained a few things to Song Ci beforehand. The latter listened attentively.
“Director Zhao told me that you’re quite good. Show me your skills.”
“Alright.”
Song Ci was not afraid at all.
To be honest, Director Liang did not really mean what he said. Song Ci was still young. She may be good, but there was still a limit. It was fine if she could not keep up with Chen Fuxing. However, he thought of Yin Jiuling and his head began to hurt.
‘If I had known that she was so bad, I wouldn’t have hired her. She can’t even complete a scene after more than a month. Worst case scenario, I’ll have to replace her.’
Song Ci saw Director Liang frowning and asked, “What’s wrong?”
‘Is he worried about my performance? But I haven’t even started yet.’
“It’s not your fault.”
Director Liang consoled Song Ci.
“I just remembered about a scene that will be shot tonight. It hurts my head. I’ll take some painkillers later.”
Song Ci did not really understand.
Director Liang did not elaborate further. He asked his assistant to call Chen Fuxing over.
The scene was simple. Yu Xiaoyue passed by her father’s office. She pushed open the door and reminded him to eat early tonight. Yu Xiaoyue’s smile was lively and warm. It was a rare moment for the father-daughter pair since their relationship was still strained at that time.
After Yu Xiaoyue’s death, Yu Ning would reminisce about that scene again. Unfortunately, his daughter would never come back.
Director Liang shouted, “Action!”
Song Ci put her hands in her pockets and walked forward. She had a strawberry-flavored lollipop in her mouth. When she passed by Yu Ning’s office, she suddenly thought of something and smiled.
“Yu Xiaoyue” leaned back and looked at the door curiously before knocking on it.
“Come in!”
“Yu Xiaoyue” did not enter directly. Instead, she just stuck her head in and smiled at her father.
“Yu Ning” was surprised to see “Yu Xiaoyue”. With a stern face, he said, “It’s working hours. What are you doing here? By the way, get rid of that lollipop! It’s unsightly!”
