Chapter 746: Lies

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the shooting continued, the scene of the female lead shaving her hair was captured.

“Please, I’m begging you. It’s not nice for a girl to become bald in the production team. Just discuss with the director and let the other girls in the production team become bald with me!”

Tomorrow was the scene, so Wei Xiao called her financier, hoping that the financier would agree with her idea.

“Alright then, I’ll discuss it with your director. However, whether or not she agrees to shave her hair is still up to her. Even if I’m a producer, I can’t force her to shave her hair!”

The sponsor was really worn out by Wei Xiao’s persuasion. In the end, he could only agree to give the female director a call.

The female director did not care much about the matter of shaving her hair.

“If Miss Wei Xiao really wants her female colleagues to accompany her to shave her head, I can be the first one.”

The director did not need to participate in the filming. The female director’s goal was to shoot a meaningful movie, so she did not care about the few strands of hair on her head.

“How can your hair be enough? I want Jing Ning and her friend, Yun Xi, to become bald with me. Only in this way will I feel better. Only in this way can I cooperate with you to film,” Wei Xiao thought for a while and said.

“If I’m not in a good mood and can’t cooperate with you to film, how much money will we delay for a day?”

Wei Xiao knew that the female director’s funds were not abundant, so he grasped the female director’s Lifeline and threatened her.

“Then I still have to discuss this with them!” The female director gave in.

“But the production team did not prepare the headgear they needed for this scene in advance, so we can’t let them shave their heads before filming this scene. Moreover, it’s best to discuss with the producer about investing more money into this movie. After all, the headgear is also a sum of money.”

The female director was not a fool. She hoped that she could use this method to earn more money for this movie. Only when the money was in place would the movie be more enjoyable to watch!

“If you can convince them, then of course there won’t be a problem. It’s just money! Money doesn’t mean anything to me.”

However, when words like wanting to shave their heads were spread to Jing Ning and Yun Xi’s side, it completely changed their tone.

“This person is really crazy, right? It was supposed to be a good thing for her reputation if people knew about it! If she asked the entire crew to shave her head with her, wouldn’t it become us bullying her in the movie and her bullying us outside the movie?!” Jing Ning did not understand.

“Sister Jing Ning, do you think Wei Xiao cares about the public’s evaluation of her? Will she continue to have a bad reputation like this?!” The little assistant said.

“Exactly! Wei Xiao only cares about the opinions of her financial backer and whether she can film a movie or series!” The assistant added.

“No matter what Wei Xiao says, I don’t agree to shave my head!” Yun Xi’s attitude was very firm.

“Me too!” Jing Ning had been following in Yun Xi’s footsteps.

After the props team spent the whole afternoon preparing, the scene of tearing off one’s hair and shaving it into a bald head was finally completed.

The female director also shaved her head according to the previous agreement. However, the female director could not persuade Yun Xi and Jing Ning to shave their hair together with Wei Xiao even though she had wracked her lips.

However, in order to bring out the best effect in the movie, the female director still lied to Wei Xiao before filming. After filming this scene, she asked Jing Ning and Yun Xi to shave their heads.

“Cut!” Halfway through the scene, the female director called for a time-out.

“Yun Xi, I hope that your ruthlessness can be a little more intense, and you might not be able to grasp the angle of the scene well. I hope that your body will turn a bit more so that your gaze will be more obvious.”

“Alright!”

Yun Xi had always accepted the correct guidance of others with an open mind.

Wei Xiao’s acting skills finally made people look at her in a new light. However, the sadness of having her real hair shaved off inch by Inch was probably not acting skills, but an expression of her true feelings.

“Cut!” The female director once again called for a time-out.

“This scene was shot very well! We’re done with this scene! The production staff will prepare for the next scene!” The female director called out to the production staff.
