Becoming a top streamer is not accidental

Chapter 25 Encouragement from the Queen

After seeing her family off, Zhao Yilin once again devoted all her energy to the filming of the crew. Although the role she played was not very long, it ran through the entire play and could be said to be a crucial presence. This role not only has a huge age span, but also has very drastic emotional fluctuations, which requires the actor to have extremely high acting ability and emotional control to perfectly interpret it.

Fortunately, Zhao Yilin is not the kind of person who would be dissatisfied or perfunctory because of the heavy workload or low pay. On the contrary, the more time she is given to prepare, the more she can understand and grasp the inner world of the character, and interpret it vividly. For Zhao Yilin, acting is not just a job, but also a passion and pursuit. She is willing to work hard for each role, feel their joys and sorrows with her heart, and give life to these roles with her professionalism and talent.

On this day, Zhao Yilin's most important scene was to be filmed. Not only was she concerned about it, but the entire crew was also on high alert, and the director even specially arranged a whole day just to ensure that this scene could be presented perfectly.

Zhao Yilin knew the importance of this opportunity and arrived at the scene early to rehearse with her co-stars. They repeatedly tried to figure out the emotions of the characters, constantly tried various performance methods, and repeatedly communicated and negotiated with the director and other actors. After several rounds of careful polishing, they finally found the best way to show the tension of the plot.

In this process, Zhao Yilin was fully engaged, as if she had transformed into a character in the play, and every expression and movement was full of appeal. The director, with his keen insight, accurately captured every wonderful moment and gave professional advice; the opponent actor also performed well and had a good understanding with Zhao Yilin, making the whole scene even more fascinating.

After the last take, the director felt that he had finally achieved the effect he wanted. After he called a stop, everyone in the room applauded. The director also praised him generously: "Xiao Zhao, you did a great job. Keep it up, you will definitely become a good actor."

Zhao Yilin was not very happy to receive the director's praise, because the highlight of this role was the final moment, and there was no place for her to show off afterwards. She left the stage dejectedly, and someone called her from behind.

"Xiao Zhao, wait a minute." Who would call her? She turned around in confusion and saw a bright and familiar face. It was her!

Zhao Yilin trotted over, her words slurred as she was so nervous. "Hello, is it...is it Fang...Fang Zheng...sister?" She had been thinking about how to address her, and finally added the word "sister" after her full name, not knowing whether she would be angry.

Fang Zheng nodded generously, "Yes, I'm Fang Zheng, you can just call me Sister Zheng."

Zhao Yilin suppressed her inner ecstasy and bowed, "Sister Zheng, do you know me?"

Fang Zheng shook his head. "I don't know you, but I just heard the director call you Xiao Zhao. Can you tell me your name? If you tell me, then we know each other."

Zhao Yilin was surprised and delighted, "My name is Zhao Yilin, you can call me Yilin or Xiao Zhao." She didn't expect to see the famous actress Fang Zheng here, and she didn't expect that she would take the initiative to call her. Zhao Yilin's mind was fuzzy, and she could only stand there and smile foolishly.

Fang Zheng seemed to be used to this kind of situation, and did not forget the purpose of calling Zhao Yilin because of her confusion. "I just watched you filming for a long time."

As soon as she heard about filming, Zhao Yilin sobered up. Standing in front of her was a film queen who had won all the international awards. Could she take this opportunity to ask for some advice? But would she be able to do it? Was she worthy of it? Although she had many concerns, Zhao Yilin still squeezed out a few words, "Is it because I didn't act well?"

"No, you acted very well. You can be said to be the best young actor I have ever seen. Keep it up!"

So the actress wanted to encourage herself. Zhao Yilin was overjoyed, but she didn't get carried away. "Thank you, Sister Zheng, but I don't have many opportunities to act. I can only play minor roles. This shows that my acting is not good enough."

Fang Zheng sighed, "Alas, being an actor now is not like our time. As long as you act well, the director will use you no matter who you are. Today's directors consider too much, including investors. It is difficult for actors without foundation to stand out. However, the audience will not consider so much. The audience will only see whether the play is good or not. As long as you act well, you will always stand out."

Zhao Yilin nodded excitedly, "Sister Zheng is right, I will work hard." Zhao Yilin clenched her fists tightly when she said this. As if she was encouraged, she asked Fang Zheng fearlessly, "Did Sister Zheng also start out as an extra?"

Fang Zheng obviously didn't expect the little girl to ask this question. After a pause, she answered truthfully: "I played the leading female role the first time, but it was different back then. At that time, the director selected the actors based on the script, unlike now..." Unlike now, the actors are decided by the investors. Fang Zheng stopped talking halfway, fearing that the other party would think too much.

The girl in front of her was pretty, had a good figure, and good manners. She had also shown good acting skills in the play she just watched, but she could only play supporting roles. This showed that she had no connections behind her, and she was not even a professional. Even if she had any of these, such a talent should not be limited to playing supporting roles. She was afraid that she would be disappointed if she told the truth, but Zhao Yilin actually understood.

She apologized for her rudeness just now: "I'm sorry, Sister Zheng, I asked too many questions. Can you sign an autograph for me?" Zhao Yilin took out the small notebook she carried with her and handed it to Fang Zheng. It was a rare thing to meet the queen of film and get her encouragement today, and she hoped to leave something as a souvenir.

Fang Zheng seemed to understand her idea. He got a pen from his assistant and wrote a line of words on Zhao Yilin's notebook: Come on! See you at the top! Fang Zheng also wrote the date at the back: 2008.4.23.

Zhao Yilin took it and took a look, her eyes moistened. She stepped back and bowed to Fang Zheng, "Thank you for your encouragement, I will work hard." She didn't dare to say that they would meet at the top, because she felt that what she said now was a promise. From today on, she would work harder, but she didn't know if she could reach the peak she said.

Zhao Yilin stood there happily watching Fang Zheng leave. Wang Ping, who had just returned from buying milk tea, ran over to her and was extremely surprised. "Sister Yilin, was that Fang Zheng just now?"

"Yes."

"Great, I just saw you two talking, did you ask Sister Fang Zheng to help you?"

"She has helped me. She just encouraged me to act well."

Wang Ping was almost fainted with anger. What kind of help was this? Wasn't it to ask her to introduce herself to some big directors so that she could have more acting opportunities? Wang Ping only hated herself for running around. Otherwise, she would have shamelessly asked Fang Zheng to take care of Sister Yilin when she had such a good opportunity. Alas, what a pity!
