Chapter 39: Roasted Chicken Bai Lu, a Bold Parting Gift (5 Updates, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Bai Lu nodded.

"I understand."

Following Director Kong's signal, all departments prepared.

And Bai Lu began to perform.

"Cut."

The director paused and said: "Start over."

Bai Lu gritted her teeth, picked up the long sword, and continued reading the lines.

"Cut."

"Cut."

"Cut."

Director Kong frowned; no matter how many times Bai Lu filmed, she could never find the feeling he wanted.

Usually, when Bai Lu was fair-skinned and acting opposite Zhou Jin, Zhou Jin's performance naturally brought her into a better state.

But today's scene was, firstly, a solo performance, and secondly, more difficult.

So Bai Lu kept NG-ing.

Finally, after filming a dozen takes, Director Kong, who was still unsatisfied, sighed lightly.

He also knew that, after all, she was a rookie actor, and acting skill was her fatal flaw; it might not be noticeable in normal acting.

But once the camera was focused entirely on one person.

The poor acting skill was completely exposed.

And since this was the last scene, he didn't insist on scolding her sternly.

"Bai Lu, forget it, you rest for a while first."

"Yes, Director."

Bai Lu nodded dimly.

She had already tried her best, but she just couldn't find the feeling.

Zhou Jin thought for a while and looked at the director: "Director Kong, why don't we film the scene where I commit suicide in prison first? Perhaps seeing me commit suicide will help a bit."

Director Kong pondered for a while; he naturally understood what Zhou Jin meant.

When actors act, sometimes they rely not only on acting skills but also on their own true feelings.

Just like the simplest crying scene.

Some actors can't bring themselves into the character and simply can't cry.

But there is a technique, which is to imagine sad things that have happened to them, such as deceased parents, a puppy that died in a car accident, or when they were heartbroken...

At this time, even an actor with poor acting skills can perform emotions well.

Director Kong nodded lightly.

Zhou Jin said to Bai Lu: "Meng Yan, you bring yourself into Qin Bore, see the feeling and emotion of me committing suicide, and then keep it."

Bai Lu gritted her teeth and nodded.

Soon Zhou Jin had the makeup artist apply makeup, and he also arrived at the temporarily built prison cell.

This scene of Zhou Jin committing suicide in prison was very simple.

Prince Yu learns in prison that his Princess Yu is pregnant, and to protect his offspring, he commits suicide in prison.

This scene was very similar to Bai Lu's suicide.

It didn't require lines, nor did it require many actions, only eye acting.

【Delicate Eyes】 entry, activated.

Zhou Jin's eyes became prominent and delicate, with reluctance for the world, guilt for his wife, anger at his father, despair at the failure of the rebellion, and also regret for Qin Bore.

In the gaze of Zhou Jin at the last moment before suicide, anyone who took a look would be attracted into it, seeming to be able to read many emotions.

Silently, without needing to read any lines, everyone could understand the meaning.

And these myriad gazes, along with Zhou Jin's suicide by hitting the wall, all became dim.

"Cut!"

Director Kong shouted excitedly.

"Good, too good!"

"This eye acting, even a real veteran actor might not be able to perform it."

Bai Lu, who watched the whole process, shed tears unconsciously after seeing Zhou Jin's eyes.

Although she knew it was fake, she just couldn't help but shed tears.

Zhou Jin walked to Bai Lu's side, handed her a tissue, and said: "Keep this feeling."

"Hmm."

Bai Lu wiped away her tears.

Soon, Bai Lu's last scene continued filming.

As soon as Bai Lu thought of Zhou Jin's emotional eyes when he committed suicide.

A tear fell uncontrollably.

The sad and desperate Bai Lu slowly drew the long sword from her waist and held it against her neck.

There should have been lines here in the script.

But Bai Lu lowered her head at this moment; she stared blankly at herself in the long sword, and tears burst from her eyes again.

In her eyes, self-blame, guilt, love, sadness, despair...

She cut her own throat.

Died for love!

"Cut!"

Director Kong didn't expect it to go so smoothly; it passed in one take.

"Too good, it passed in one take, especially the eye acting when committing suicide at the end; the eye acting is too good."

Bai Lu, who was completely immersed in sad and desperate emotions, filmed this scene of suicide for love in just one take.

No acting, all emotion.

After changing into casual clothes and removing her makeup, Bai Lu walked out of the crew.

At this time, she was still a bit dazed.

As an actor, being too immersed in a character has the benefit of greatly improving one's acting skills.

But there are also many disadvantages, which is being sensitive and fragile.

Of course, another very important point is falling in love because of the drama.

Many actors who play couples fall in love with each other because they are too immersed.

Just like the *Spider-Man* trilogy, every Spider-Man Parker fell in love with their lovers; there was no exception.

Bai Lu looked at Zhou Jin dazed, as if he were Prince Yu.

Tears flowed uncontrollably from her already red eyes.

In the drama, Qin Bore had always let Prince Yu down; this feeling grew deeper, and the guilt grew heavier.

Bai Lu, who had entered the character of Qin Bore, found it hard to distinguish at this moment.

Zhou Jin put the flowers he had prepared in advance into Bai Lu's arms and said with a smile:

"Bai Lu, you've already wrapped up."

"Congratulations on the wrap."

"Oh, hmm, hmm." Bai Lu took the flowers in a daze.

Time will dilute everything.

Generally speaking, this situation will slowly disappear as time passes.

Of course, there is another situation, which is joining the next crew and playing another couple, leading to "changing affections."

Bai Lu looked at the flowers in her hand and suddenly said: "Zhou Jin, I like you."

Zhou Jin felt a bit helpless upon hearing this.

How was he being chased again?

The last one was Meng Ziyi, the one before that was Li Yitong, the one before that was Reba, the one before that was Yang...

This one shouldn't count.

Da Mimi should be considered wanting to keep him, but he didn't take the money, and their relationship was much more intimate than keeping.

Zhou Jin had to change the subject and ask: "When are you taking the plane to leave Hengdian?"

"I want to rest for a while; my acting is very poor, and I plan to go back to Yanjing to study acting properly during this time."

This time she filmed Qin Bore.

If it weren't for Zhou Jin often bringing her along and helping her enter the state, she couldn't have finished filming so smoothly.

"Zhou Jin, let's go watch a movie."

"Okay."

The two soon bought tickets and entered the cinema.

A very niche horror movie.

The entire cinema was almost booked out.

Why Bai Lu chose this movie, of course, the drunkard's heart is not in the wine.

Bai Lu said: "This armrest is too much in the way; I'll lift it up."

"Hmm."

"My hands are a bit cold," Bai Lu said, putting her hand into Zhou Jin's hand.

Zhou Jin held Bai Lu's little hand very naturally.

Warm, soft, a bit cold.

Didn't expect Bai Lu to be a bit cold-natured; her little hand was indeed a bit cold.

Zhou Jin wasn't in the mood to watch the movie either, concentrating on playing with Bai Lu's soft little hand, pinching it from time to time.

Bai Lu spoke again: "Zhou Jin, Reba calls you Brother Jin; can I call you Brother Jin too?"

"Okay."

Zhou Jin naturally had no objections.

Reba took off her little jacket and covered Zhou Jin's thighs.

"You're a bit cold; I'll cover you."

"This..."

Zhou Jin wasn't actually cold, but since it was a good intention, he had to let it be covered.

"I can't hold your hand anymore."

Zhou Jin: "???"

Zhou Jin was a bit confused; he didn't understand what Bai Lu was going to do.

"Brother Jin, I want to give you a gift before I leave."

"What gift?"

Bai Lu lay intimately in Zhou Jin's arms and "zipped" open the zipper of Zhou Jin's top.

Just when Zhou Jin was confused, Bai Lu's hand reached toward...

"Zip..."

Another zipper was opened.

"This zipper..."

Zhou Jin widened his eyes instantly. ===== CHAPTER 40 =====
