Chapter 496: Improvisation, changing makeup

Xu Wenwen: "Saying that jumping ship to other villages has less competitive pressure, it is not because you want to make contributions in other villages after seeing us make achievements."

She snorted coldly and looked at them up and down, "Other villages must have spent a lot of money to dig you over, otherwise with your two personalities, where do you have the courage to think of jumping ship.

Also saying that you can go to other places and cooperate with Pond Village, is this a matter of cooperation? We have already made political achievements, why should we cooperate with you?

You have the ability to jump ship, and you don't have the ability to govern other villages well, don't let Xiaoxiao go to help you again, you touch your own face, match it?"

Wei Yaoyang played by Ma Mingqi and Su Yue played by Wang Hongdou were stimulated by Xie Yingying's words, their faces were flushed, and they substituted themselves into the character's feelings.

At this moment, Ma Mingqi and Wang Hongdou both thought that Wei Yaoyang and Su Yue were not wrong!

Separating to compete for civil servant quotas, letting others not roll inside Pond Village, what is wrong?

Pond Village has been brought up, the economy has gradually improved, they want to go to other townships to continue to support economic construction, what is wrong?

Other villages offered better welfare benefits and base salary, people go to high places and water flows to low places, what is wrong?

They are not wrong!

Separation is the best choice and an inevitable choice. Xie Yingying mocking them is just not used to them being good!

Wei Yaoyang said: "Poverty alleviation is a long-term process. There are so many poor and backward villages in the country. The success of Pond Village is a ready-made case. Why can't we use it as a reference?"

Su Yue also said: "Yuan Xiaoxiao has experience and technology. If we transfer to other villages, what's wrong with asking her to guide?"

Xie Yingying laughed: "Your tone is big. You haven't transferred yet and you are thinking about the future. I advise you to be careful. You really can be transferred, but if you put the words out but still didn't leave..."

Xie Yingying clapped her hands vigorously, "Clap, clap, clap! How embarrassing!"

Wei Yaoyang was so excited that he said the wrong words: "You, you are not reasonable! You are too much, we also want to serve other people!"

Xie Yingying: "Whether it is for your own selfishness or to serve the people, you know better than me."

Wang Hongdou had calmed down at this time. She was emotional just now, and the words she said didn't go through her brain.

Now she reacted suddenly, and the cold sweat on her back brushed out.

It's over, she didn't follow the script's lines, nor did she follow the set scene. Will she be scolded by Ye Dao?

But after quarrelling for so long, she didn't hear Ye Dao shout "cut," so Wang Hongdou had to bite the bullet and continue to swallow.

How is the plot development here? What are my lines? Wait, I seem to have no lines long ago!

Wei Yaoyang was still muttering something. Su Yue reached out and pulled him, her lips pursed tightly, and she forcibly held back her emotions and pulled him away.

Ma Mingqi was completely brought into Wei Yaoyang's emotions. When Wang Hongdou pulled him out of the door, he was still dissatisfied: "What are you pulling me for, I can go by myself!"

"I haven't finished talking to Xie Yingying yet. It's her own small-mindedness, and she refuses to talk to us!"

Wang Hongdou didn't say a word, just pulled him out of the shed.

After leaving the shooting range, she breathed a sigh of relief and said: "We were all emotional just now. Didn't you find that our lines were said too much? After Xie Yingying refuted us, we only need to show angry emotions, no lines."

Ma Mingqi reacted, his forehead instantly cold sweat, and he was a little nervous: "It's over, will Ye Dao scold us to death, but I didn't hear Ye Dao shout cut when I said it!"

Wang Hongdou looked into the shed.

"It should be fine, Ye Dao is still filming."

Ye Weijie was indeed still filming.

At first, Xu Wenwen read the wrong lines, and he didn't find it, because the lines were said to be very consistent with the scene at that time.

Later, under the reminder of the deputy director, he knew that Xu Wenwen read the wrong words.

But Ye Weijie felt very normal when filming, so he continued to film.

I didn't expect that while filming, I also found surprises.

All three of them entered the play!

The dispute was back and forth, more exciting than watching a debate!

Originally, when Wang Hongdou pulled Ma Mingqi out, Ye Weijie was ready to shout cut.

But Xu Wenwen was able to seamlessly connect the performance under the lens, he came to interest, so he continued to film.

Xie Yingying drank a sip of tea poured by Yuan Xiaoxiao indignantly and said: "These two people's abacus is really good, they ran away after using people!"

Yuan Xiaoxiao played by Jin Li patted her on the shoulder, "Don't be angry, let's not be angry. I thought about it carefully. Su Yue and Wei Yaoyang's words make some sense.

Although Pond Village has been supported, we have four people. If there is really a civil servant quota, I am afraid it is not enough to divide. It is better to put them in other villages, maybe the quota is enough."

Xie Yingying "tsk" said: "You treat this quota as Chinese cabbage, and you can arrange it if you reach the standard?

We village officials want to be civil servants, and we still have to take the exam, but this is internal selection, targeted support, and passing the exam is still the road of supporting the countryside.

Giving an exam indicator, how difficult is this? What is difficult is the interview behind, and how many achievements we created during the village official period, these will be used as evaluation references.

They clearly know what is going on, but they still want to run, it must be that those villages came to dig them, and they don't want to stay in this mountain depression of Pond Village!"

Yuan Xiaoxiao poured her another cup of tea and smiled: "Since you know their thoughts, what is there to be angry about. Now it is that they don't have me, they may not be able to make achievements, not that we beg them to stay."

Xie Yingying turned her eyes, "You mean..."

Yuan Xiaoxiao said calmly: "I was also very angry when I heard that they wanted to jump ship, but later I heard that they wanted to run to other villages to develop the economy, and I wanted to laugh very much.

Can other villages compare with Pond Village? Pond Village has good scenery, good location and cultural heritage, so it can transform into a tourist village. Other villages may not have such conditions.

In addition, our work can be carried out smoothly, also because the villagers of Pond Village cooperate. They run to other richer villages, and they may not be able to implement the ideas."

She changed the subject and said with a winning ticket: "So what am I in a hurry for? It should be them who are in a hurry."

Xie Yingying breathed a long sigh of relief, "It's enough to have your words. I knew they couldn't jump ship so easily."

Jin Li is also improvising at this moment. The script did not set her lines like this. The emotions are more calm and rational, and she doesn't talk much.

But substituting into it, Xie Yingying, as Yuan Xiaoxiao's friend, is so indignant for Yuan Xiaoxiao, Yuan Xiaoxiao must also be very moved.

Facing friends, there is no need to take a stand, you can say a little more.

She still has words to say, Ye Dao finally shouted "cut!" at this time.

Jin Li and Xu Wenwen breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Ye Weijie called them over, and Wang Hongdou and Ma Mingqi had already gathered forward for the first time.

Everyone gathered around the small screen to watch the performance just now.

Ye Dao said: "The emotional explosion just now is good. Although it was not performed according to the script, the true feelings are revealed, which can play a role in promoting emotions in film and television dramas."

He said with infinite satisfaction: "I hope you can come a few more times for such improvisation!"

Filming rural films, farmers who perform in their true colors often come to improvise, but for actors who are not farmers, it is still a bit difficult.

After Ye Dao finished speaking, he let them disband early for lunch break and continue filming in the afternoon.

"Jin Li, you stay." Ye Weijie said.

After other actors left, Jin Li asked: "Director, do you have anything to do with me?"

Ye Weijie thought for a while and said: "I think your performance emotions are too light, too confident. Can you see if you can be more grounded?"

Jin Li pondered: "Then I will change it in the afternoon."

Ye Weijie hurriedly said: "Don't change it too exaggeratedly, that is too exaggerated."

In fact, Jin Li's performance is also okay now, but Ye Weijie wants to improve, and he feels that Jin Li can do better.

But if he really asked him to say specifically what was not done well, he couldn't say it, so he could only let Jin Li realize it herself.

After lunch, Jin Li didn't return to the homestay, but went to the village chief's office.

After entering, she smelled a heavy smell of toilet water, which is used to repel insects.

There are many mosquitoes and insects in the countryside, and there are many flower mosquitoes in winter here. Once bitten, they will have large bubbles.

Jin Li had a flash of inspiration and understood a little bit about the director saying that the emotions were light.

Jin Li felt that her performance had no problem, but maybe it was because she always had a sense of confidence, so if the sky fell, she could solve it, so she didn't look like a village official, but more like a senior leader.

Then she just needs to make herself look more like a village official.

Pond Village has nine ponds, and many weeds and trees grow around the ponds. Jin Li originally wanted to drill into one of the weeds and let the mosquitoes bite her actively.

She was about to move, but changed her mind again. Although mosquitoes have no wisdom, the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages still exists, and they can feel the different aura on her, but they hide from her.

Before Sui Lingfang came to Pond Village for a period of time, she was bitten by mosquitoes here for several bags, but she was fine.

Since the mosquitoes took the initiative to hide from her, Jin Li would not force the mosquitoes to bite her, but discussed with the makeup artist to see if she could make some pus bags bitten by mosquitoes on her arms and face.

Besides that, Jin Li also said: "And skin color, it has to be dimmed by one degree."

The makeup artist hesitated: "I have already painted you very black, do you want to be blacker?"

Jin Li looked at herself in the mirror, her skin was as smooth and elastic as a peeled egg. Although it was the yellow skin color of the public, she made people feel that her skin was super good at a glance.

Jin Li said without hesitation: "Paint it blacker, my face is outstanding enough, there is no need to compete with people on skin."

The makeup artist sighed: "Okay."

She muttered in her heart: "In the past, I only thought about how to make stars look more beautiful, and I thought about it, but now I have to deliberately make a beautiful person ugly, and I know that this is harder than making people beautiful, and I can't bear to start!"

But even if she couldn't bear it, she still had to work hard.

Jin Li said, adjusting makeup is not for herself, but to make the role have a more realistic sense of substitution.

In the afternoon, Jin Li appeared in the crew with a pus bag on her forehead, a pimple on her chin, and three pus bags on her arm.

Ye Weijie was slightly stunned when he saw Jin Li like this from the camera, but didn't say anything.

Anyone who can be a director is sensitive to the images captured by the lens; he saw at a glance that Jin Li had not only painted pimples on herself but had also darkened her skin tone.

It wasn't darkened obviously, but it was enough to make people feel she wasn't as dazzling as before.

Ye Dao showed no reaction, and the others continued to act according to the script without saying anything more.

As for the staff on set, they felt even less that Jin Li's makeup was abrupt.

This was a rural area, and it was very normal for skin to be a bit rough in the countryside.

Jin Li had long since planned it out; the pimples on her face and arms would also change according to the timeline—maturing when they should, and turning into red marks when they should.

She had already marked it all out in the script.

This time, Jin Li performed according to her past habits, but Ye Weijie no longer felt that Jin Li's acting was overly steady.

Sanyuetian finished their afternoon engagements and left in a nanny van.

Yan Xingdong opened his phone and discovered that He Yan had sent dozens of messages and made over a dozen calls.

He opened the messages to check them first, raised an eyebrow, and chuckled.

"He Yan is questioning why we were absent from the schedule he arranged. The organizers kept calling to ask him why we hadn't arrived yet, and he even accused us of choosing someone else's engagement, saying we lack contractual spirit by doing this."

Chen Lin was stunned: "The engagement He Yan provided? I remember he did send some over, but we only looked at them; we didn't give him a specific reply, did we?"

Luo Yi pushed up the glasses he wore as an accessory: "Right, the captain's reply was something we all thought of together. I remember it was: 【Not sure if we're free, have to wait for specific notice, need to ask the manager】."

Yan Xingdong flipped through the messages and understood.

"He said he ran to ask Zhang Guang, knew we were free that day, so he signed us up. He didn't expect that we would suddenly take another engagement that afternoon and leave, which caused him to breach the contract."

Gu Cheng said pointedly: "We didn't even sign a contract, so where would a breach come from? Even Brother Guang, as our manager, cannot sign a contract on our behalf."

Chen Lin complained: "And we never explicitly agreed to participate; how could he assume we definitely would? He's so dramatic!"

While they were talking, Yan Xingdong's phone rang again; it was He Yan calling.

Yan Xingdong hung up without a second thought and then turned off the phone.

The others didn't turn off their phones, but they all switched their phone numbers in unison and then added He Yan's number to their blacklists.

Yan Xingdong didn't switch numbers; he took out another private phone and sent a message to Brother Guang, arranging to meet him at the villa that night.

He said: "He Yan is pushing so hard, it's time we talked to Brother Guang. If nothing goes wrong, the senior management of Tianding Entertainment will also be contacting us in the next few days."
