Chapter 592 Even if you pray to this during Mercury retrograde, it won't help.
Regardless of their analysis at night, the opening ceremony will still be held as scheduled the next day.
As is customary, the opening ceremony was scheduled for 9:18 a.m.
This is what is called an auspicious time. Ye Sanqing does not need to change into a complete outfit. He only needs to attend with modern makeup and styling that suits Dugu Rang's temperament.
Because the first day of filming emphasizes "smoothness," it involves shooting risk-free establishing shots or scenes with a lot of extras moving around.
Moreover, there will be a simple opening banquet at noon, and it would be too inconvenient for the actors to wear full makeup and costumes.
Ye Sanqing's costume was alright, but there are other characters with elaborate costumes, especially since this is a period drama...
So today, Ye Sanqing wore a black strapless top and skinny jeans, matching ankle boots, and an oversized coat over it, and tied her hair in a high ponytail.
This design is similar to Dugu Rang's styling, and the makeup doesn't need to be too exaggerated.
Actually, the most eye-catching part of Dugu Rang's body should be his tattoo...
But not today, otherwise it would have taken two hours for makeup and styling.
When Ye Sanqing arrived, most of the people had already arrived. Sheng Hanyu greeted her as soon as she saw her, "Good morning."
He wore a white suit with an ink-wash style today, a more casual cut.
This also echoes the look in the drama. Ye Sanqing smiled and said, "Not bad."
Sheng Luoxin said from the side, "The Three Pure Ones look great today!"
"Teacher Sheng too."
Sheng Luoxin was also dressed in all white, even more casual than Sheng Hanyu's outfit, but without stripes or prints, making it very simple. She had no other decorations on her body, and her hair was simply tied back.
Ye Sanqing thought to himself, "It has to be him; this outfit is too likely to cause a fashion disaster..."
Their position gradually became the center of the crowd, and everyone would come over to say hello, and then they basically wouldn't go very far.
Being close to the lead actor definitely generates some buzz...
Looking at Ji Ran, dressed in a flowing black haute couture outfit, and Gu Lin, dressed in red, Ye Sanqing suddenly felt that sometimes...
It's not their fault if others want to ship them as a couple; the two of them together actually have quite a story behind them...
Ji Ran's wardrobe is certainly very extensive; he can easily pull out any outfit to suit any occasion. But Gu Lin's fiery red suit... is quite a challenge.
His outfit includes a vest, tie, and shirt, but it's a retro style, the kind with wider shoulder pads.
Moreover, the entire outfit is the same color, making it look like a look that only appears at concerts.
It seems he's still determined to reinvent himself.
After everyone arrived, they roughly arranged their positions. Ren Junxiao, screenwriter Dao Wu, and director Qi Nanzhao stood in the front row, which was full of crew members. The back row was where Ye Sanqing was positioned.
On either side of her are Lin Qianren and Su Xingyi, and on Su Xingyi's other side are Sheng Hanyu and Sheng Luoxin. On Lin Qianren's other side is Duan Feng, and then there are Mei Ruohong and the other people playing the righteous characters.
The Dharma protectors and senior disciples from various sects were all in the back row.
If this photo is taken, Gu Lin's fans will probably go crazy again...
Ye Sanqing thought.
If all goes as planned, we'll be taking a group photo later, and we'll be standing in roughly the same spot.
The three of them are the main characters, so it's normal for them to be in the center position.
Su Xingyi's outfit today also had an exotic feel, and for some reason it also had a sporty vibe. Although it was also in red, it felt completely different from Gu Lin's outfit. Even if she took off her coat and went to the gym, it didn't seem out of place. It was just that she had more decorations in her hair.
Lin Qianren wore a linen-colored casual suit with a nice drape, which suited her simple and unassuming character.
However, it also makes it easy for someone to publish articles claiming that she outshines others...
Ye Sanqing thought to himself that he really hoped she wouldn't see this press release, but his second brother must have already given her some instructions...
Ye Jin'er also came today. He was very low-key today, still wearing his turtleneck and suit.
He was an investor, so he was not far from the director.
High-necked turtlenecks are practically every tech guy's dream...
Ye Sanqing's understanding of fashion has increased a lot recently, and he can now even offer his own commentary.
The ceremony itself was quite simple; Ren Junxiao simply offered incense...
To be honest, this was something Ye Sanqing had never seen before, and she watched him operate it with a hint of curiosity.
Before this, she asked Sheng Hanyu if everyone had a religion.
She knew there were many kinds of faiths in the world, but she herself certainly didn't have any.
In the interstellar age, all sorts of strange beliefs exist; even something as seemingly unrelated as flying pasta is considered a very down-to-earth religion...
Since Ye Sanqing can rule an interstellar empire, he naturally believes in himself rather than in gods.
Sheng Hanyu's answer was that there was basically no such thing, but regardless of whether one had a belief or not, this step was essential, and it was more about traditional customs than belief.
In other words, whether you have something to say or not, pray first...
It was quite interesting, but Ye Sanqing was more interested in the roast suckling pig placed on the red tablecloth than incense.
That stuff looks delicious. Should I have it for lunch later...?
As she was lost in thought, the moment came when everyone clasped their hands together or bowed. She hesitated for a moment and then bowed slightly as well.
Let's just consider it a courtesy.
Actually, this isn't mandatory. After all, even when going to a temple, there are no rules about how to worship to be considered devout; there's a lot of freedom involved.
As she straightened up, her gaze swept over Lu Mingye not far away, who looked quite devout...
Could this guy actually believe that Mercury retrograde nonsense?
No, praying to this won't help during Mercury retrograde!
Lu Wangshen sat in the wheelchair next to him with a serious expression, seemingly saying something.
"You don't actually think praying to this will work, do you...?"
As it turned out, what Lu Wangshen said was pretty much what Ye Sanqing thought.
Lu Mingye: "I just bowed when I saw it, it was nothing..."
They were in the guest area, and Fu Sizhou was nearby, talking to other people.
Ye Sanqing glanced at it, then turned his gaze back to the roast suckling pig.
As it turned out there was still some time before lunch, Ye Sanqing watched with great regret as the roast suckling pig was taken away.
Now we have to take photos in front of the backdrop. The group photo positions are exactly as she expected, and then there are individual or small group photos of two or three people, etc.
"Won't your clothes just become part of the background...?"
Ye Sanqing looked at Ji Ran's black clothes and said.
"Aren't you black too...?"
"Alright, alright, I'll be the background for everyone," Ye Sanqing said with a smile.
At first glance, the background wall appears to be black with a large gold logo, but that's not actually the case.
It reflects light to some extent in the lens, so it's okay even if you're wearing black clothes.
Because black is a very common color for clothing, this was taken into account when setting up the background wall.
but……
Haven't Gu Lin's fans started to go crazy yet?
