527 Waiting To See Jiang Xun Make A Fool Of Herself
[Good fellow, I was just about to say that Sister Yao has become softer, and she’s become straightforward again.]
[Who’s the one whose acting skills haven’t improved in more than ten years? Be bold and say it!]
[Needless to say, I think everyone should have a list in their hearts. There are not just one or two people.]
[They’re famous for being able to earn money too easily by simply acting, so they’re not willing to study their acting skills.]
“Then I’ll go back and sort it out. I’ll give it to you tomorrow,” Jiang Xun said.
Based on Youlan’s situation today, it was hard to say if she and Qiyao would be able to film today’s scene.
“Alright,” Qiyao responded. “But there’s no hurry. You don’t have to rush to give it to me. Take it slowly.”
Jiang Xun nodded and did not say whether she agreed or not.
Finally, Youlan’s scene passed.
Mingguan asked Jiang Xun to get ready. It was Jiang Xun’s execution scene next.
“It’s a good time now. The sun is high and the sunlight is good. It’s just in line with the environmental needs of the plot.” Mingguan, who was wearing a baseball cap to block the sun, grimaced in pain. “The Sixth Bureau hates Luo Niannian as much as they trusted her before.”
“Previously, they treated Luo Niannian as one of their own and did not avoid her when they talked about many things. They also hinted at things when answering Luo Niannian’s questions in the name of an interview or in private, which led to Luo Niannian leaking a lot of internal information. That’s why the people of the Sixth Bureau hate Luo Niannian to the core.” Mingguan analyzed, “That’s why they’re treating Luo Niannian as a classic example. Not only will they torture her in prison, but they’ll also give her the most painful death even when she’s on the execution ground.”
“At the same time, it’s a warning to the civilians and Luo Niannian’s colleagues who are hiding among them. They deliberately chose noon, the time when there are the most people and they can see the most clearly.” Mingguan pointed at the execution platform. “The first scene will be in prison. The scene is before you go to the execution ground. The second scene will be from here to the execution ground.”
“The people of the Sixth Bureau want you to kneel and admit that you are a sinner. They want you to admit that they are Orthodox,” Mingguan said. “You refuse to do so. They kick you down and force you to kneel on the ground. They cut you again and again, but you still grit your teeth and not make a sound. You dodn’t even cry out in pain. In the end, the executioner takes a knife and cut off your flesh piece by piece, killing you.”
“You should control your emotions,” Mingguan said. “These two scenes are difficult. In the prison, before the execution, you should think about how you should act. We’ll try out all kinds of emotions and see which one is better.”
“Is it calm, silent, or touched by the face of death? This feeling could be fear, it could be the struggle of the contradiction between the instinct to live and approaching death, or it could also be the face of death.” Mingguan pinched the space between his eyebrows. “Jiang Xun, which one do you prefer?”
Mingguan didn’t know that Jiang Xun was someone who had faced death countless times and had taken the initiative to die.
Jiang Xun thought about how she had felt when she had decided to die.
“Although I’m not afraid of death, I still have feelings for the world and for my friends. However, death is also a way to let the people behind me, who I’m protecting, live a better life. I hope that the world will become a better place.” Jiang Xun said slowly, “It probably means perseverance, determination, and nostalgia.”
Mingguan nodded and said,”I was originally thinking along the lines of showing that you’re not afraid of death and smile at it. How about this, you try both. We’ll have the cameraman focus on your face for this scene, so the expression in your eyes are very important.”
“Alright.” Jiang Xun nodded.
Youlan finally managed to finish her scene and was waiting to see Jiang Xun make a fool of herself. Didn’t Mingguan keep saying that Jiang Xun’s acting was good?
She would like to see if Jiang Xun could act well today.
However, she had just heard Mingguan say to Jiang Xun that it didn’t matter if she didn’t do well today.
Mingguan really had double standards!
The group first came to the prison to shoot Jiang Xun’s first scene.
The shoot officially started. Jiang Xun was looking at the air in front of her with dull eyes, but in reality, she did not seem to see anything.
The sound of footsteps could be heard in the cell. In the gloomy and oppressive cell, the footsteps were like a death talisman knocking on one’s heart.
The three of them came to Niannian’s cell. The door was unlocked with a clatter.
“Luo Niannian, let’s go.”
Jiang Xun stood up. Her expression was calm, but her eyes were filled with the determination to die.
Before she took his first step, the corners of her mouth curved into a mocking smile.
Her body was extremely fragile from the torture, but she still laughed in disdain.
“Alright!” Mingguan stood up. “Not bad. Keep this line.”
Mingguan walked over. “Jiang Xun, your performance is on point, but I still feel like something is missing.”
“The scene you just shot was based on my understanding.” Mingguan pondered for a moment. “How about this? You can perform another scene according to your idea just now and let’s see the effect.”

“Alright.” Jiang Xun nodded and returned to her seat in the corner.
She recalled the scene and her mind before she died in her previous life. She closed her eyes to calm herself down and recalled the emotions at that time.
Mingguan roughly knew what Jiang Xun was doing.
He was even a little surprised that Jiang Xun’s actions were something that was common among many well-known and capable actors.
Shuidong and Gu Fei had the same habit as well.
They had to get into character and build up their emotions in advance before shooting.
It was hard to believe that Jiang Xun had not learned how to act before she entered the industry and had only acted in four dramas.
And the total screen time of these four shows was actually not that much.
However, Jiang Xun’s acting skills seemed to be those of an actor who had been acting for more than ten years or even decades.
She wasn’t the kind of person who didn’t improve and hone her acting skills.
Instead, she already had her own set of acting logic and was constantly improving on her acting skills to the point of nitpicking.
However, such a state could not be achieved unless one was an acting fanatic who had a certain level of acting experience.
Jiang Xun had actually reached such a level.
Mingguan was very surprised and didn’t dare to disturb her.
After a while, seeing Jiang Xun open her eyes, Mingguan asked, “Shall we start?”
Jiang Xun didn’t say anything, afraid that she would let go of her emotions. She only nodded silently.
Mingguan quickly retreated and showed them the screen. “Come, get ready!”
Everyone was speechless.
…
Since when had Mingguan been so accommodating to an actor?
In front of Jiang Xun, Mingguan was like a little brother!
Mingguan was also very polite to Gu Fei and Shuidong, but he did not treat Jiang Xun as his priority like he just did.
The sound of footsteps came from the prison again. They came over to call Jiang Xun to the execution ground.
