In the next few days, Ran Xueyi established a good relationship with her co-stars as well as the staff members of the production crew. The atmosphere in the studio was different from the other studios they've been into because everyone treated each other warmly and much friendlier there.
For almost two weeks, the main actors ran around the studio and acted their scenes very well. Ran Xueyi especially achieved the respect from everyone in the crew and constantly praised her skills in acting. Even Director Sun, who was at first skeptical about Ran Xueyi, soon became more open and truthful towards Ran Xueyi's decisions during some scenes.
To them, it was no wonder that Ran Xueyi achieved the most prestigious Best Actress award several years ago. And although it was inevitable that she still made little mistakes, it wasn't so much that the scene they were playing out would call off in that second. Instead, it was still passable and within the standard that the script and directors wanted from her.
On the other hand, her co-stars were the ones who made a lot of mistakes during filming. Ran Xueyi never had NGs called out, but because some extras and co-stars didn't show the exact expressions and feeling that their roles should have, the scene had to be acted out once again until Director Sun finally called it a pass.
During these two weeks, Ran Xueyi didn't only focus on her role as Ruan Jiaojiao, she had to run from one studio to another to play her other roles as well.
True to her words, Zhao Fei found her a few roles that don't have that many scenes but have vital importance to the plot of the films and movies. These roles weren't just some glass characters that are used to decorate and make the scene even prettier. These roles have a depth and background to it, and it also helped the plot to thicken and progress.
At this moment, Ran Xueyi acted out three different roles. Ruan Jiaojiao, the two-faced policewoman and psychopath murder. Chu Young, the shining first moonlight of the male lead from another romantic film, and Li Xin, a villain demoness from an immortal sect who wanted to kill the female lead and marry the male lead.
Every role has a different feel in it and different types of emotion and character background. If others were to accept each role and act them out, they would have gone crazy by now due to being overwhelmed by their roles' emotions and switching between three different roles.
Ran Xueyi sat in the backseat and heard Zhao Fei speak beside her, "You've played two antagonistic characters and one innocent character in just two weeks. It must be quite draining for you. Are you still planning to accept other scripts and play other roles?"
Ran Xueyi nodded without looking at her, "Yes, please send the script to me so I can review it."
Zhao Fei gave her a concerned look and asked, "Ran Xueyi, tell me, is there something going on with you?"
Ran Xueyi sighed, "Why do you think so, Sister Zhao?"
Zhao Fei said, "You've been working a lot these days. For two whole weeks, you didn't take a break and started to act in different roles. And not only that, you still want to act in other roles and shoot a commercial! Don't you think this is a bit too strange coming from you?"
She turned to stare at Feng Huai, who was munching on his snack, "Am I right, Xiao Feng?"
Feng Huai blinked his eyes and expressed his thoughts on this, "Though Sister Zhao is right... Aren't there some stars who work like a madman as well? I've heard that some actors even accepted five films and movies to act in."
Zhao Fei felt her head throbbing and gave him a vicious look, "It's true that there are actors and actresses that act in more than five films and movies, but it was all done within a year! When did you hear an actress acting three roles in two weeks?"
"Oh, I know someone who's like that... Isn't Sister Ran like that?"
Zhao Fei was even more frustrated and no longer gave Feng Huai her attention. She focused on Ran Xueyi and said, "Look, just tell me, is this about that person? Did something happen at home?"
Ran Xueyi didn't want to tell Zhao Fei about her circumstances and shook her head while reassuringly said, "Sister Zhao, you're thinking too much. It's been a while since I've entered the entertainment circle. If I don't work hard right now and play in different films, I'll be buried by other stars."
She continued, "Besides, two of my initial films after going back to the circle have been put into an awkward situation. It's frustrating me that I still don't have any film to appear in after coming out of my cave."
Zhao Fei was still not fully convinced after hearing the reason behind why Ran Xueyi suddenly wanted to act in several roles. There was a nagging feeling that after a period of time, something huge will happen. However, Ran Xueyi stayed calm while answering her questions and there were no fluctuations in her voice.
Was Ran Xueyi really telling her the truth?
In any case, Zhao Fei could only accept her words this time since there was no other reason that could justify Ran Xueyi's sudden strange actions.
The three drove to another studio where Ran Xueyi will act in the last scene of her character, Ruan Jiaojiao.
The scene was between the three main characters.
Gao Yang found out Ruan Jiaojiao's true identity and felt great dismay and disappointment. He was still in disbelief and it was only Yao Mu's intervention that he finally couldn't deny the truth.
As for Ruan Jiaojiao, she was already prepared to meet the main leads and showed them her last masterpiece.
This scene required a lot of pure and twisted emotions. Of course, there will be a lot of blood in the scene too.
Director Sun nodded his head in appreciation for the work of the staff to recreate the scene from the book. He signaled for his assistant director to hit the clapperboard and shouted, "Scene #23 Ruan Jiaojiao's death! Everyone get ready to act!"
