CHAPTER 430: CHAPTER 246 CRUSHING_2

Shu Wan didn’t understand Liu Qing’s meaning, "Don’t worry, go ahead and use it. If you have any problems, you can talk to me again."

"Okay." Liu Qing was even more touched, "You are too kind. If there are suitable roles in the future, I will definitely think of you."

"Okay."

The post-production of "Qingcheng" was taking place in the Film and Television City, and Shu Wan’s upcoming new drama "Fuxian" was also being filmed in the Film and Television City.

After leaving from Liu Qing’s place, Shu Wan went to meet with the director of "Fuxian."

Before coming, Shu Wan had already known that the director of "Fuxian" was the fairly famous Wei Jia.

In this entertainment circle where movies were held in higher esteem than TV shows, Wei Jia had become a legend in the film industry. Besides a Martial Arts film he made in the early years that received great reviews, Wei Jia had not stepped into the television industry ever since.

This was the first time in over a decade.

To shoot a film by Wei Jia, one must first understand the director’s works. During the time when she wasn’t shooting, Shu Wan watched all of Wei Jia’s work in her free time.

Each director has their own distinct style. Just as Liu Qing excels in campus romance genres, Wei Jia is better at portraying chivalric and unrestrained styles.

Wei Jia was from the Hong Kong circle. That was the golden era of Martial Arts in the Hong Kong circle, and naturally, Wei Jia’s filming style carried the grandeur of that period.

Wei Jia was already waiting for Shu Wan. Hearing the door open, Wei Jia looked up, and his gaze instinctively brightened.

Not because of anything else, but because Shu Wan’s face and demeanor were truly impressive, and unique.

But this astonishment was just momentary, for as a famous director, he had seen countless beauties.

For ordinary directors, the beauty of the protagonist is a bonus because it is a highlight of the film, something that can attract viewers.

But for top-tier directors, excessively beautiful actors are actually a drawback.

Because actors need to convey the story to the audience. They are merely vessels for a role.

An overly stunning protagonist could cause the audience to focus solely on their beauty, naturally detracting from other aspects.

Thus, even though Shu Wan was extremely beautiful, Director Wei Jia did not pay special attention.

He took on this TV show purely because he was returning a favor.

"Go change into your costume and we’ll try a scene later," said Wei Jia, handing a script to Shu Wan.

"Okay."

Shu Wan nodded her head, then went to the makeup room.

There were already many makeup artists waiting. Shu Wan was confident in her own makeup skills, but she did not outright dismiss the stylists.

"Show me what kind of look you’re planning to give me."

The styling team was also well-known in the industry, usually receiving praise from various actors, so when they saw Shu Wan’s casual attitude, they naturally felt somewhat displeased.

"Just sit down, and we will get started."

Although reluctant, the stylists quickly created Shu Wan’s look.

In recent years, a "funeral-like" fairy makeup style had become popular in the entertainment circle.

That meant plain robes and simple headwear to portray the fairy’s purity and holiness.

Shu Wan herself had a naturally cool demeanor. Under such styling, she appeared even more aloof and ethereal.

"So beautiful."

Seeing Shu Wan’s appearance, the stylists were somewhat stunned and couldn’t help but exclaim.

However, Shu Wan slightly frowned, "I feel that this doesn’t match the character’s personality."

"How could that be? This is the most fashionable makeup now."

The stylists, used to dealing with self-absorbed actors, just laughed it off and didn’t plan to further discuss it with Shu Wan.

After all, if Shu Wan complained, she could just change it herself.

However, what the stylists didn’t anticipate was that Shu Wan was indeed planning to alter the makeup herself.

She looked at herself in the mirror for a while, seemingly contemplating the appropriate makeup.

Then, Shu Wan started making changes.

Seeing Shu Wan wiping off the makeup they had applied, everyone looked at each other, frowning.

Being aware that Shu Wan had connections, they were prepared for some obstinacy.

But they had not expected her to be this overbearing. It was too much.

Initially prepared to leave, the stylists stayed to watch, curious to see what kind of look Shu Wan could achieve.

However, as time passed, they realized that Shu Wan indeed had some real skills.

Not just a few, many.
