After this little interlude, Ruan Tian snorted and didnât bother speaking to Wang Baiyuan any further. After a little while, Ruan Tian put down her script casually.
The director looked over and asked, âYou have a lot of lines today, have you memorized them all?â
Ruan Tian nodded and replied, âIâve memorized them.â
The director nodded. He knew that Ruan Tian had a nimble mind and a good memory, so it wasnât difficult for her to memorize her lines. Unlike certain a certain male actor from the same cast who could barely remember more than five sentences at a time.
Hearing her affirmation, the director smiled until his eyes squinted up, âNot bad. Ruan Tian, you are really the best actress that Iâve ever met. Break a leg today.â
In the past this director had mostly worked on shoddy projects with dog-blood storylines, so he was more accustomed to the flow where the actors on his casts werenât very professional at all.
Some of those over-rated stars wouldnât even bother to memorize their lines. Instead, they would just go on set and blabber nonsense for a while and force the crew to dub over them later.
The director really didnât have any aspiration for this drama at first. When he first came to set he had the mentality of âIâll just shoot it casuallyâ, âIâm here to earn money to support my family,â and âWhether the end product is good or not has nothing to do with me.â
And then, on the very first day of shooting, his male and female leads even had a big fight with each other, so he had become even less invested in the project.
After all, of all the sets he had worked on, none had been so ****ing magical as to have the actors physically fighting each other.
But who would have guessed that, over the past two months, Ruan Tian had only ever been diligent and serious about her work? She was even more professional than him, the director.
After working with Ruan Tian for a while, the director felt an unprecedented sense of shame.
His actors and actresses were already working so hard, so why wasnât he also working hard?
Therefore, thanks to the stimulation of working alongside Ruan Tian, the director also gradually fell in love with the script and worked seriously.
As for the male lead Wang BaiyuanâŠ
He was just a loser from beginning to end. It would be fine for him to retire quietly. Anyway, he didnât have too many scenes according to the script, so it was fine.
His overall impact on the story was small and could be solved with some tricks.
Right now they were shooting one of Wang Baiyuanâs few scenes. For this scene, he needed to be suspended from wires.
As he allowed the crew to put on his wire harness, he was feeling a little impatient. He had very thin skin and tender flesh, okay? What was he going to do if he got sunburned? Did this crew deserve that kind of sacrifice from someone like him?
Just as Wang Baiyuanâs temper was about to explode, the director finally called out, âAll departments, make your final checks. We will begin shooting as soon as youâre ready.â
This scene was a pivotal moment in the script where the conflict between male and female leads finally broke out. In order to keep the female lead, who aspired to walk the path of immortal cultivation, by his side, the male lead was determined to block her way and abolish her cultivation base.
When Ruan Tian first saw this scene in the script, she turned speechless on the spot.
Ugh⊠it turned out to be the overbearing prince forcing his love trope being played completely straight. Was this cliche really so popular! ?
Personally, she just felt it was ****ing ridiculous.
Wang Baiyuan looked over at Ruan Tian, who was also suffering under the sun, and suddenly felt a little better. He said proudly, âIâll let you play for a while first. I hope you wonât be so outshone by me that you start to cry.â
Ruan Tian looked up and sneered, âI still need you to let me? Donât flatter yourself.â
Wang Baiyuan couldnât wait to get started.
The director spoke into his megaphone and called out for them to start.
Wang Baiyuan stood high on the top of the eaves of the building, his face pale like a ghost. He looked down at the frail woman below and began his line: âThis prince told you last time that if you ever tried to run again then this price would directly destroy your cultivation so that you can never leave this princeâs side for the rest of your life. â
He stopped speaking and then flew down from the rooftop, sweeping straight towards her like the wind.
However, at the final critical moment, when it was already impossible to stop, Wang Baiyuanâs frosty face suddenly turned frightened! He knocked into Ruan Tian and then tumbled to the ground and ate dirt.
On the side, the director called âcutâ, and Wang Baiyuan grimaced in pain. He cried out, âWhat the hell! Are you trying to kill me? My arm, my legs, my face, my waist!â
The crew members all swarmed forward, especially the four or five assistants that Wang Baiyuan brought along with him. One by one they all tried to comfort him, âBrother Wang, is everything all right? Does it hurt? Why donât you try to stand up? â
Wang Baiyuan flew into a rage. âIâm almost dying here, and youâre asking me to stand up? !â
His voice was shrill and noisy.
The assistant he screamed at had a good temper and didnât retaliate at all, he just turned around and shouted to the others, âCall an ambulance quickly. Donât you see how Brother Wang is suffering? If anything happens to him, none of you will be able to escape!â
