Free Web NovelChapter 1241: Chapter 1241: Arrival at the Film Crew
On the road afterward, Yun Qiluo didn’t stay idle but continued studying the script.
Even if it’s a small role like a palace maid, she wanted to understand it thoroughly.
She found online that this is the basic duty of an actor; only by understanding the character can you portray its soul.
By this time, the director and producers in the crew had already learned she was on her way to the set.
They, however, weren’t optimistic about this newcomer and didn’t have any expectations.
The reason was that Chu Yibai gave her this role, a fairly important supporting character.
Usually, these roles are given to professionals, small actors who aren’t particularly famous but have several years of acting experience.
Or they’re given to newbies who just debuted or have transitioned from girl groups to hone their acting skills and gain experience, while also doing a favor for their agency.
But even most newcomers are professionally trained; at the very least, they’ve taken some acting classes.
Yet this role was given to Yun Qiluo...
The director and producers had seen her profile; she’s a web celebrity who hadn’t acted before. They only checked her photos (those death-angle selfies from her Weibo) and thought she looks decent.
But that appearance in the entertainment industry can only be considered above average, not particularly outstanding.
She’s also someone without acting skills, almost indistinguishable from an amateur. Just thinking about guiding her in acting seems troublesome. Besides, she comes with her own fans; if she causes a scene... it really would be a headache.
Despite being dissatisfied, the directors were still happy to use such a small role to do a favor for the movie star Chu Yibai.
Chu Yibai’s identity as the Crown Prince of the entertainment industry is well deserved; since becoming a movie star, he’s seldom appeared, and his status in the circle has reached the top.
For this second or third-tier little director to do him such a favor is practically like a pie falling from the sky.
He just wasn’t optimistic about Yun Qiluo, whom Chu Yibai introduced.
Making things difficult wasn’t the case; he was just puzzled why someone like Chu Yibai... would associate with a web celebrity, especially a game streamer. Even for dating, given Chu Yibai’s background, it’s impossible for him to choose a web celebrity.
Moreover, they hadn’t heard anything about Chu Yibai having a girlfriend privately.
The directors couldn’t figure it out, leading them to take a bit of interest in Yun Qiluo, but it was merely curiosity.
The filming location was in a film city on the outskirts of the Imperial City, which was quite convenient for shooting costume dramas.
This drama would be filmed there for about half a month, then they would move to other places.
After Yun Qiluo arrived by car, staff from the crew were tasked specifically to pick her up, confirming her identity before bringing her in to meet the director.
When she stepped out of the car, the two staff members were thoroughly amazed, and their goodwill towards her skyrocketed.
No straight man could remain indifferent to such a cute, exquisite, yet spirited face.
The girl in front was practically an angel, wasn’t she?! They’d been in the entertainment industry for years and hadn’t seen a female star so beautifully pure and transparent! Every glance could strike the soul!
Such charisma is impossible for any female star to replicate.
How could such a girl be the kind of troublesome web celebrity the directors were worried about?
