READ NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 14: Chapter 14: The Head of the South Has Arrived
The director, furious, was tossing things around while cursing the two heartless actresses!
"Director Liu, is the film crew short on funds?" Su Xingyue, who had just arrived, overheard the director and suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
She was all too familiar with such developments...
Every time she had been hired to act in a film, the crew would miraculously run into financial trouble first, and then... the project would be dead in the water!
Could it be the same this time...? Thinking this, Su Xingyue suddenly felt a little panicked.
The director, still fuming, nodded and didn't forget to curse again, "Yes, that untrustworthy investor suddenly pulled out a couple of days ago, without any reason!"
The director's words stunned Su Xingyue... The coincidence made her overthink things.
"Xingyue, you came into the crew without asking for a salary, so you don't need to worry about your payment!" the director sighed, trying to console her.
"..." The director's words only made Su Xingyue feel more suffocated...
She had agreed not to take a salary at the beginning just to fight for the role... That's how she got the part of the female ghost in this horror movie.
But... even if she had come without pay, she couldn't just work for nothing.
If this movie fell through, all her previous efforts would be wasted...
She ran away from her wedding to offend Nan Yuling and specially came to this place to act... She never expected the outcome would be like this...
Just then, the director's assistant hurried over and anxiously said to the director.
"Director Liu, the new investor will be here in ten minutes, and the leading actress and supporting actress haven't arrived yet!"
"These two unprofessional actors, they can forget about being in my films in the future!" the director cursed again, in anger!
...
"A new investor?" It was then that Su Xingyue finally snapped out of it and realized there was a new investor.
"Xingyue, you have only one more scene left, get ready quickly, we must shoot this scene well for the investor to see!" At this, the director pointed at her and suddenly instructed.
Before Su Xingyue could react, she was hurried off to change clothes and put on makeup.
A white dress and a pale makeup.
"Xingyue, this scene is very important. Get into the right emotion, that feeling of sadness but also of letting go," the director busily explained to her.
It was Su Xingyue's last scene, as well as the final ending for the female ghost character she portrayed.
Finally letting go of all resentments, ready for reincarnation...
As Su Xingyue stood in front of the camera, summoning her emotions, she suddenly heard the director's assistant's voice.
"Director Liu, Mr. Nan has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Su Xingyue, who had just mustered her emotions, was startled.
Mr. Nan?
Before she could ponder further, the director's voice came through the loudspeaker.
"All departments, pay attention, we're rolling!"
All the cameras were aimed at Su Xingyue.
She froze for a second, then quickly got into character.
...
When Nan Yuling arrived on the set, he immediately saw Su Xingyue, in a white dress, standing in front of the camera.
"Mr. Nan, please take a seat!" the assistant director came over, greeting Nan Yuling.
But he didn't give him a glance, just stood expressionlessly not far from the camera, watching the girl in the camera...
...
This was a scene without dialogue.
The female ghost, having resolved the heartache of her past life and seeing her enemies dead, decided to let go of her resentments and pursue reincarnation.
Standing in front of the camera, Su Xingyue, even without a single line, conveyed a sense of relief and a reluctant farewell to the world with her teary eyes, clearly expressing her emotions.
