Little newbie breaks into the entertainment industry

Chapter 306: Read the script and rehearse the play.

In addition to her role as Concubine Li, Lan Xi also successfully got the role of Concubine Jia. However, although Xiao Jingyi and Zhang Youying also joined the crew, they were not the originally planned roles.

The outspoken Xiao Jingyi played the gentle and cowardly Wang Jieyu!

And Zhang Youying played the stupid and arrogant Wu Zhaorong!

It was fate that Wu Zhaorong eventually died at the hands of Concubine Li.

It is said that three women make a play, and there are already thirty women in front of me, which means countless plays.

Jian Xia originally thought it would be boring, but unexpectedly! It was so exciting! There was endless fresh melon to eat every day!

The more headache the director has, the happier she is.

Eating too much watermelon can cause internal heat. As Jian Xia was eating, the heat started to burn her body.

The heroine Su Yi threw the script and suddenly got angry: "Although we are just rehearsing now, you should understand your own part first, and then rehearse with me. What's the point of reciting without emotion? Memorize the lines in private. Look at Jian Xia, she is a newcomer, but she can speak the lines so well."

Jian Xia: “…” This, this, is he praising her or increasing her hatred?

The new actress Dan Qi didn't dare to refute. After all, she was the female lead and also a top-notch star.

But she felt wronged and could only lower her head and cry silently.

However, no one at the scene spoke a word for the new actor, and no one would offend the female lead for a newcomer.

What's more, the heroine stands on the moral high ground!

Jian Xia looked at him and raised her eyebrows. Would she be hated by others? Why did these people always talk about her?

She raised her hand to support her forehead. Sigh! There was nothing she could do. She was just too good!

Finally, the director stepped out to adjust the atmosphere: "Calm down! We are going to live and work together for half a year, so everyone, understand each other, get along well, and stop quarreling! Otherwise, I won't be able to shoot this play!"

"What Su Yi said just now is also true. Everyone should treat rehearsal as a filming and take it seriously. It doesn't matter if you can't remember the lines, but you must understand the lines and the characters, and have a plan for each scene. Of course, we have a lot of newcomers, you should learn more from your seniors, ask questions if you don't understand, and don't just figure it out on your own."

After hearing what the director said, the girl nodded and wiped her tears. Although she felt aggrieved, she still took the initiative to apologize to Su Yi.

Jian Xia and Su Yi have acted together several times. She thinks Su Yi is not a bad person. It's just that she has very high requirements for professional things, and she has a straightforward temper. She can't stand affectation or procrastination.

If you don’t work hard yourself, you can’t blame others for having high expectations.

After the director sorted out the script, he picked a scene and called out the names: "Come on, Jian Xia, Zhang Youying, the two of you come and act out the scene before Wu Zhaorong goes off the stage."

Jian Xia smiled and pulled Zhang Youying to the middle.

(Reading scene: Put the tables and chairs against the wall to form a big circle, and the actors sit in turn, leaving the middle empty for rehearsal and rehearsal. Simple rehearsal can be done sitting down, but rehearsal is basically a simulated performance, and then go to the middle to perform, so that everyone can watch together!)

When the two of them came to the middle, Zhang Youying was a little nervous. Although she had acted in several dramas, this was her first time to participate in such a large-scale and serious reading.

Especially when they are all seniors and big names, Jian Xia, on the other hand, has the feeling of a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger!

"Director, shall we start right away?" Jian Xia asked.

The director simply explained the scene to the two of them: "Let's talk about Concubine Li first. You have turned evil at this time, but you haven't broken up with Xie Jingyu on the surface. Because Wu Zhaorong is the only confidant left of Concubine Lan, so on the surface you conspired with Xie Jingyu to frame Wu Zhaorong, pretending to surrender to Concubine Lan, but in fact you used both sides..."

"What about Wu Zhaorong? Because Imperial Concubine Lan is under house arrest and is in a desperate situation, she ordered you to dissolve the relationship between Concubine Li and Concubine Chen and bribe Concubine Li. So you are very proud that Concubine Li is willing to come to your palace and show her willingness to surrender to Imperial Concubine Lan..."

Jian Xia and Zhang Youying listened carefully, and then they discussed some details about the scene, such as greetings during the meeting, before they officially began to rehearse the scene.

The two prepared two chairs. After the director shouted "start", Jian Xia straightened her back and instantly transformed into Concubine Li. She walked in from the door and saluted Wu Zhaorong: "I, your concubine, greet Empress Zhaorong. Your Majesty is well!"

Wu Zhaorong said arrogantly: "Get up!"

Lipin smiled and stood up, walked forward to support her and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. You look much more haggard, are you worried about the Imperial Concubine?"

Wu Zhaorong glanced around after hearing this, then rashly pulled Lipin inside and said, "Let's talk inside. I have something I want to ask you."

Lipin turned her wrist imperceptibly and supported Wu Zhaorong instead, turning the passive position into active one, but her tone was still gentle: "Your Majesty, be careful."

She was not at all annoyed by Wu Zhaorong's rudeness and arrogance. Instead, she was gentle, courteous, and even cautious in every way.

"You all stand down."

Wu Zhaorong pulled Lipin to sit down together, and impatiently dismissed the maids in the room, leaving only their trusted maids to serve them.

Lipin looked at the closed door, then turned to look at Wu Zhaorong. Before she could speak, Wu Zhaorong asked directly, "Sister, are you willing to come to me today, but have you decided to take refuge with me and the Imperial Concubine?"

Lipin smiled and nodded: "Your Highness and Imperial Concubine are both extremely beautiful and are deeply loved by His Majesty. Your Highness also knows that I have no one to rely on in this palace. Now that Your Highness and Imperial Concubine do not despise me, I am willing to do this. Your Highness, would you like to help me convey a message to Imperial Concubine?"

When Wu Zhaorong heard that she was willing, she immediately smiled happily and said, "Sister, you say, I will go to pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine later."

"If Your Majesty believes me, I can help the Imperial Concubine regain her favor. I only want to avenge my brother and have no other request. Xie Yan is the murderer. I beg Your Majesty to help me. After the matter is done, I am willing to serve you and the Imperial Concubine at my whim." After saying this, Concubine Li stood up and knelt down.

Wu Zhaorong was startled, and pulled her up and asked, "What? Was it Xie Yan who killed your brother? Then why are you so close to Chenpin?"

Lipin took out her handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes: "I trusted her too easily in the past."

Wu Zhaorong saw this and did not doubt it at all. Instead, she was very happy. She rolled her eyes and asked tentatively, "Sister, you just said that you have a way to help the imperial concubine regain her favor? I wonder what it is?"

Concubine Li lowered her eyes and drank tea, hiding the sneer in her eyes and at the corners of her lips, and then glanced at the non-existent maid behind her without leaving a trace.

Wu Zhaorong took it and asked curiously, "Sister, what is this?"

"Your Highness, please open it and take a look. This is the finest rose water from the Western Regions. It was originally a gift from His Majesty to Concubine Chen. At that time, she gave this small box to me in order to win over me. I know that I am of low status and unworthy of using such a good thing, so I present it to you as a gift. I heard that using it more often is good for the skin and can also make people have a natural fragrance to attract butterflies. Your Highness can use it yourself first. If you think it is good, you can present it to the Imperial Concubine to help you win the emperor's favor. In this way, the Imperial Concubine will be grateful to you."

"Besides, if Concubine Chen knew that the Imperial Concubine regained her favor with the things that His Majesty gave her, she would be furious."
