Chapter 435 - Your Female Lead Is Very Beautiful.
Everyone was shocked when they heard Xie Ming's words. Generally, all the actors get their makeup done from the make up artists and only the actors who don't have any significant role sometimes were forced to do it himself.
But Xie Ming was the second female lead and it was the most important character in the movie because without the antagonist, the protagonist has no value.
However, Han Lei and Mo Zan know about this thing since it is in their vanity that Xie Ming got dressed up.
But it's still shocking that she got ready herself and was looking like this.
" You're not using any makeup? That's surprising. I thought you're using basic makeup that's why you are looking like this. It's unbelievable that one could have such beautiful natural skin." Director Han has never seen any actress who could show her bare face on camera, but Xie Ming was not hesitant to do so.
Afterall, anyone would happily show their skin if they have such natural skin.
" By the way, you got ready yourself? Really? I mean that's amazing. You're a new actress and yet know how to get dressed up for a character better than the makeup artist herself." Director Han scoffed, hinting towards Shi Ya's mistake.
Since he doesn't know it was Yuan Lei who made her do all this, he still felt that it's really a shame that an expert in her field can make such silly mistakes.
" But why did you get ready yourself? I mean, why didn't any makeup artist do your makeup? Weren't you supposed to get your makeup done by a makeup artist?"
Director Han was confused why Xie Ming didn't get any makeup artist. Is it because she wanted to do it herself or something else?
" Director Han, Shi Ya was supposed to do Xie Ming and Yuan Lei's makeup but in the end things turned out like this." Xu Lan replied vaguely but Director Han got her hint and kind of understood the situation.
By now he has also understood Yuan Lei's attitude very well. He could imagine that it must be her behind all this.
" It's good that you got ready yourself." Director Han praised Xie Ming because Yuan Lei has to get ready again because Shi Ya did her makeup.
Director Han cannot imagine how much time they would have wasted if Xie Ming had made a mistake in getting ready as well.
Xu Lan smiled and said," Director Han, it's good Xie Ming knows makeup that she handled the situation well. We should be glad that we have such an artist working in our movie." she smiled as she looked at her.
She was really grateful towards Xie Ming. If it had not been for her, then they wouldn't have been able to finish costume fitting and get ready on time. Because Yuan Lei had created a bunch of problems for her.
Xu Lan also doesn't want to explain all this to Director Han now. She wants to explain this to him after the photoshoot finishes because they can't bear to deal with Yuan Lei again.
….
When the photographer arrived, all the cast members were asked to move to the setting area where cameras and lightings have been all set up.
There was a royal chair in the middle. Everyone was listening to the photographer, David Liu's words as he was telling them how to pose during the shoot.
Even the photographer and her assistant also acknowledged that Xie Ming looked really beautiful in this outfit.
" Director Han, your female lead is very beautiful." David Liu said while glancing at Xie Ming.
Director Han saw his gaze and replied, " She is not a female lead but a second female lead. But she is indeed beautiful."
They both exchange glances as David Liu nodded. Even though Xie Ming is only a second female lead, she is extremely beautiful and elegant.
' But why does she look so familiar?' David Liu narrowed his brows as he tried to remember if they had met before.
As they were chatting with each other , Yuan Lei came out after fixing up her makeup and hairstyle with her manager following her behind.
She was struggling in her long outfit and had to take support from her manager to walk in this outfit.
She paused in her steps when she saw Xie Ming talking to Han Lei. She frowned when she saw how beautiful she was looking.
She clenched her fists because Xie Ming's costume was royal and beautiful while she was wearing a white plain outfit.
" Yuan Lei, don't think much. Even though she is looking beautiful, people will not even look at her. She is just a second female lead while you're the female lead. You have a fan base while she is just a newbie. Don't think too much." her manager patted on her arm when she saw her expressions darkening.
" Hmph. Why would I worry about her? I know that she is no match for me. " Yuan Lei walked towards the photographer who was talking with director Han.
" Mr. David Liu " Yuan Lei called him out and greeted him.
David Liu is a well known photographer who has 10 years experience in this field and has worked overseas mostly.
It's been only recently that he came back to his country to work in the entertainment industry. Before that he was more into fashion and modelling.
David Liu turned to look at Yuan Lei and raised his brows in puzzlement. He didn't recognize her and waited for her to say something.
" Erm. We met at the awards last year and I won the best rookie actress award. You remember?"
Yuan Lei has met him at the awards for a brief moment and she remembered him because he was called as the special guest.
" Oh. My bad. It's nice to meet you. Okay, Everyone let's gather around and take your positions." He briefly greeted her and started working ignoring her existence.
Yuan Lei scoffed in annoyance seeing that he was treating her indifferently. However, she doesn't mind his actions because he is like this with everyone.
Director Han shook his head in frustration seeing Yuan Lei's embarrassing actions.
….
Everyone took their position for the shoot as they were instructed.
The first shoot included only Xie Ming, Yuan Lei and Wu Sheng. Since they were the main characters, they were asked to take their positions.
Wu Sheng was told to sit on the chair while Xie Ming and Yuan Lei were told to stand each of his side.
During the photoshoot, everyone was surprised because it was Xie Ming's first time yet she did very well in her shots.
She was gentle and elegant when she was supposed to and was showing her fiery side when she was required.
David Liu was impressed by her because she was capable of showing different expressions without any hesitance.
Yuan Lei felt annoyed because David Liu kept praising Xie Ming while she was told to fix her expressions and show gentleness on her face.
What captured everyone's attention was Xie Ming's posture during the photoshoot. Nobody needs to tell her to straighten her back or where to keep her hands because her posture is already perfect.
It was elegant but not forced. She was naturally elegant.
It was hard to see someone who could control their movements like this.
