Chapter 54 Being opinionated
It was impossible for the actors to hear these words before the program was broadcast. In order to ensure the authenticity of the program, no clips would be cut, including the director's dissatisfaction with Alice and Alice's bad attitude towards the staff. When the show was broadcast, it would all be displayed before the audience.
There was a sound making by Alice's high heels in the corridor, Lucy looked out the door. "Black is here too!"
Anna sat in front of the makeup mirror without any reaction. She ought to be responsible for her work and her mood couldn’t be affected because of them.
"Anna, I have something to tell you." Black glanced at Alice and then Lucy, "Can you let her go out first?"
"Lucy is my special assistant. I won't conceal anything from her. If Mr. William has something to say, then you can continue next time."
Anna had changed her clothes during the break, waiting for the director while resting.
Alice smiled proudly, covering her mouth. "Black, don't tell her. I think she must not be able to withstand this stimulus!" Her eyes were full of disdain for Anna, as if she had already won the game.
Ignoring her provocation, Anna turned around calmly and just assumed they weren’t here.
Anna shut the script with a snap.
"I'm not as free as you think. You have bothered me to work." Anna said coldly.
The next second, two bodyguards in black walked in quickly, kicking Black and Alice out.
"Please." They said coldly and reached hands out to stop Black. The tall body and serious expression made them looked like copper and iron walls. Black was unable to approach Anna.
"Black, why does Anna have a bodyguard? Do you hire them for her?" Alice was jealous so she held Black to ask ceaselessly.
"How is it possible?" Black snorted as he looked at Anna's back. "Our company really can't tolerate her! You go on to shoot don't need to inform her about that thing. Just let her regret it!"
Originally, he wanted to let Anna know in advance that he and Alice were about to be engaged. It was also an explanation for their past relationship to prevent Anna from making a sudden mess. Now it seemed that he didn't need to do that at all.
Seeing Anna's face which was completely different from before, he only had burning anger in his heart. How could she not care at all?
And Alice was very happy to see Black being angry at Anna.
"Go to have an investigation. Where did Anna's bodyguards come from? I'll hire a few for myself!"
"But the company doesn't seem to have this outlay..." Alice's assistant felt a little embarrassed. Even if Alice was Black's girlfriend, she couldn't have her own way while she still didn’t keep her position as the hostess of the company well.
"What? Everything that Anna has must be applied for me. Moreover it should be all better than her!"
Alice stepped on high heels and left angrily. And her assistant looked at the brand logo on the left chests of the bodyguards, and frowned slightly. "Where have I seen this logo?"
Lucy watched Alice go far and walked back to the table. She prepared Anna with a glass of water. "Would you like me to inquire about their situation? I don't think thing is so simple."
"There’s no need. Let’s figure out our work first."
Anna had always been sensible so her personal feelings must not affect her work.
What's more, for such an important international cooperation, she must seize every rare opportunity. At that time, she obtained the position of the Grand Slam step by step in this way. Now she couldn’t even relax.
Soon the makeup artist put on make-up for Anna. After seeing that she was wearing the clothes of her aunt Rachael in the play, she was afraid Anna was not satisfied with the old makeup. Therefore, she explained with a smile. "Because of the character's needs, some makeup adjustments may be made to make your age more suitable for the characters in the play."
"Okay, let's get started." Anna cooperatively closed her eyes, and sat in the makeup chair.
The makeup artist answered OK. Nearly forty minutes later, Anna's old makeup was finished. Fine lines and age spots were appropriately added to her beautiful young face. And some skin relaxation adjustments were added as well. She really looked like a woman over fifty.
"Your eyes are so beautiful that I can't create the feeling of being old." The makeup artist said apologetically.
Anna smiled and looked at the mirror. "Your makeup skills are superb ..."
"Are the actors ready? We will start in three minutes!"
The staff broadcast the words again.
When Anna arrived, Alice was already getting along with the directors deliberately. When she saw Anna coming, she laughed out loudly because Anna also had such an old makeup. "It's ugly! I don't
think Anna needs makeup. As long as she removes her makeup, she can perform with her original appearance.”
The directors all frowned because of Alice’s words.
Weren't these two female artists both from Brilliant Entertainment? Why would they be so hostile to each other?
On the other hand, Alice's words were completely layman's words. Anna's makeup was to be 100% similar to the characters in the play. It was an actor's professionalism that was willing to make up her beautiful young face into a old one for the sake of artistic performance.
It was very childish of Alice to say such words..
Anna just ignored Alice and smiled at the directors. Then she walked to her seat. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Alice didn't realize her mistake and walked over proudly.
Anna carefully sorted out the script's lines in her mind. After confirming that there had no problem, she made a gesture to the camera. The director looked at each other and saw that Alice was ready. Then Jason shouted, "Start.”
This time, all the lighting and scenes were restored to the original scene. And the performance needed to be taken from the beginning to the end, which was a test of the professional skills of the actors.
On the screen it was Anna's crying play. Compared with her performance just now, her expression was more engaged into the play. Her eyes changed slightly, showing vicissitudes during the years and reluctance to the heroine.
She completely considered Alice as a character in the play, not someone she knew in real life. Their relationship had not affected Anna's performance at all.
But looking at Alice in contrast, her tone and sights were not correct enough. From the lens, she seemed very proud and she wanted to win the actor who played with her. She didn't understand the real purpose of the show. What the directors wanted to see was not that two actors were competing in the same play. They hoped to express to the audience with the actual appearance of the actors on and off the stage.
It could be said that Alice completely misunderstood the content of this show.
Her performance was extremely immature and even less professional.
“Cut.”
Jason took a deep breath. "Fortunately, I have invited Anna so this episode of the show was not too terrible. Go on interviewing their shooting feelings. Then they can rest and leave."
He patted a colleague's shoulder and left the shooting location with a mobile phone. He had to talk to Narsha about Anna's wonderful performance and strive for the next cooperation opportunity.
Other directors and photographers were also shocked by Anna's performance.
