Chapter 55 The Actress Who Competes with a Newcomer for the Best Actor 1
"Please wait a moment!"
As the elevator doors were about to close, assistant Yuanyuan hurriedly called out and ran towards the elevator.
She breathed a sigh of relief when the elevator doors opened again. Before she could even see who was inside, she repeatedly said, "Thank you, thank you..."
Then he turned to look behind him and urged, "Sister Qing, hurry up, we're going to be late."
Today is the day for the script reading of the TV series "The Emperor".
This movie has already generated a lot of buzz online even before filming has started.
After all, the male lead is Gu Zezhi, a renowned actor, while the female lead is Lin Yunqing, who has already won the Best Actress award twice.
Moreover, the director of "The Emperor" is Zhang Min, a renowned and talented director in the industry.
You should know that he was the mentor of both actor Gu and actress Lin.
Zhang Min loves to use newcomers who are talented and fit the roles well.
Gu Zezhi won the Best Actor award as soon as he debuted, and he was the director of that movie.
Later, in another of his films, Lin Yunqing, a newcomer, won the Best Actress award.
It's worth noting that the male lead in that drama was Gu Zezhi, who had already won numerous awards, while Zhang Min, who played the more important female lead, used a newcomer, which was quite bold.
However, as it turned out, his judgment was correct.
Besides Gu Zezhi and Lin Yunqing, there were many other newcomers who were favored by Zhang Min and eventually became famous, but none of them were as successful as these two.
Therefore, many people believe in director Zhang Min's judgment and think that the newcomers he chooses will definitely become famous.
In this drama, "The Emperor," he also cast a newcomer, a character who is the "white moonlight" of his ideal woman.
Out of trust in director Zhang Min, people online are also full of expectations for this still somewhat mysterious newcomer when discussing this drama.
Lin Yunqing paid no attention to the newcomer; what she cared about was the male lead of the show, Gu Zezhi.
She frowned and walked quickly toward the elevator, appearing quite aloof because of her bad mood.
I left home much earlier than usual, but I got stuck in traffic for so long that I'm going to be late now.
She didn't want to give the impression of being arrogant, especially regarding Gu Zezhi's opinion, which she cared about quite a bit.
Yun Qing pursed her lips and stepped into the elevator. When she saw the person inside, her aloof demeanor vanished instantly.
Her fair, delicate fingers hooked down the sunglasses on her nose, revealing a face that was unrestrainedly beautiful.
Her eyes were already extremely beautiful, but there was a tiny red mole, no bigger than a pinhead, at the outer corner of her eye. Because of its vibrant color, it was very noticeable even though it was small, adding to her allure.
At this moment, her beautiful eyes were filled with undisguised joy, but she pretended to be calm as she greeted him, "Teacher Gu, what a coincidence."
Gu Zezhi won the Best Actor award as soon as he debuted. After becoming famous at a young age, he has remained a top star. In the ten years since entering the industry, he has won so many awards that he can't even count them all. Not only is his acting outstanding, but he also has a face that can captivate the world.
He is only 28 years old now, but the media has already called him a legend in the entertainment industry.
He is low-key but very popular and well-liked by the public.
She appears gentle, but is actually aloof and difficult to approach, which is why she has no scandals.
Even if someone deliberately tries to create a scandal, it won't work.
Because he has a well-known quirk: obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) about cleanliness!
This is also the biggest reason why he is difficult to approach.
Although he tried his best to overcome the difficulties for filming, he was even willing to roll in mud. At most, he would take a couple more showers and disinfect himself afterward.
However, he still cannot accept intimate scenes.
It's to the point where if he were to film a kissing scene, he would genuinely feel like throwing up.
There's nothing we can do about it; he simply can't overcome it.
So far, most of the scripts he has accepted do not have any intimate scenes.
Intimate scenes are either filmed using camera angles or performed by body doubles.
Although this flaw of his makes some meticulous directors very troubled, his acting skills are really good, he is very popular, and apart from this flaw, he is also very dedicated.
Therefore, he has always been an actor that directors are eager to use. It is common for them to revise scripts and delete intimate scenes for him, and to postpone filming in order to wait for his schedule.
Gu Zezhi wore a mask, revealing only his amorous peach blossom eyes.
He looked up at Yun Qing and nodded, "Teacher Lin."
His voice was gentle and polite, not very intimate, but not particularly distant either.
After all, the two had worked together before, or at least had been friends.
His eyes seem to be full of deep affection no matter who he looks at, and his fans are often captivated by them.
Feeling a little uncomfortable being stared at, Yun Qing raised her hand to tuck her hair back, her eyes darting away for a moment before she quickly looked back.
As soon as their eyes met, Yuanyuan beside them politely greeted them.
Yun Qing then looked as if she had just woken up and quickly looked away and stood up straight.
Knowing that Gu Zezhi had a cleanliness obsession, she restrained herself and kept a certain distance.
Feeling Gu Zezhi's gaze still on her face, Yun Qing tried hard to suppress the urge to smile, her eyes filled with joy. Gu Zezhi had never looked at her for so long before.
She acted with such meticulous detail that she was practically the embodiment of Lin Yunqing herself, and I believe there was absolutely nothing wrong with her performance.
So, she had some doubts in her mind: [System, why is the male lead staring at me like that?]
Based on the male protagonist's character in the novel, it's impossible for him to engage in such impolite behavior as staring at a woman, unless that woman is the female protagonist.
According to Lin Yunqing's memory, Gu Zezhi never stared at her for long periods of time.
Yun Qing couldn't help but want to take a look in the small mirror to see if there was anything dirty on her face that Gu Zezhi found unbearable.
[Because you're pretty!]
Yun Qing scoffed dismissively, "How could that be? If I stood even a little closer, he'd have to disinfect himself immediately!"
The female lead is special; he doesn't feel uncomfortable at all when he kisses and hugs her, and he only appreciates her beauty and cuteness.
At that moment, the elevator suddenly started shaking.
Yun Qing instantly got into character, and her body tilted to the side as if she were about to twist her ankle.
In the storyline, Lin Yunqing sprained her ankle due to an elevator malfunction, and it was quite serious.
In order not to affect her joining the film crew later, she dared not push herself and could only go to the hospital for treatment.
I was unable to participate in this script reading.
This script reading led to the first encounter between the male protagonist Gu Zezhi and the female protagonist Ning Meng in this world.
Without Lin Yunqing around, Ning Meng, the newcomer, stole the show.
Moreover, Ning Meng has a pure and cute appearance that makes people want to love her. She also has a straightforward personality and doesn't seem to have many ulterior motives, which left a very good impression on the crew.
Gu Zezhi also felt that she was very talented.
So later on, on set, I didn't mind giving her pointers.
After the two had several more encounters, he grew increasingly fond of Ning Meng.
The rest of the crew already had a good impression of Ning Meng, and seeing how much Gu Zezhi valued her, they naturally became even closer to her.
As a result, Ning Meng became the darling of the entire crew.
