Chapter 96: Paparazzi Disclosure, Hot Search
Darling, intimate scene?
Not only Xuan Xia, Jiang Feng was also stunned for a moment.
Although he has debuted for a few years, he has no experience with intimate scenes.
He is not good at it!!
The screenwriter who had just passionately created the Flying Page Scene was standing next to Director Pan, beaming with joy as she looked at the two, her eyes full of endless anticipation.
They match so well; not doing a more intimate scene would truly waste such a night!
Ah, she really hadn’t felt this creative urge in a long time!
“You two look at the scene first. The scene is very simple. It should be no problem to officially start filming in an hour, right?” Director Pan’s tone and expression were also full of anticipation.
Xuan Xia: “…”
Jiang Feng: “…”
The two lowered their heads to look at the Flying Page Scene.
The scene was indeed very simple. The setting was still on the bridge, and the props were still those red sky lanterns.
The difference was that the two were no longer one standing on the bridge and the other under it, but both standing on the bridge, embracing as they watched the sky lanterns.
The screenwriter’s original lines were written like this: Under the sky full of floating lanterns, Chu Zheng held Xiang Ye as they watched the night scenery together. Xiang Ye leaned in Chu Zheng’s arms, her face serene, as if time stood still. Chu Zheng had a happy smile at the corner of his mouth, yet his eyes brimmed with tears. The happier the smile, the more the tears could not be held back. Finally, he lowered his head onto Xiang Ye’s shoulder.
After reading the specific scene, the two each breathed a sigh of relief.
Good, good, so this is the kind of intimate scene.
Although as actors, they should have professional professionalism and not reject any scenes, there are always preferences and things they are not good at.
Now that he was relieved, Jiang Feng immediately immersed himself in interpreting the role and even started discussing it with the screenwriter on the spot.
The focus of this scene was of course on Chu Zheng, since it was his dream. Xiang Ye just needed to act as a tool person; there was no complex difficulty.
Xuan Xia first left the director’s side to prepare and directly ran into Ji Ziyao.
Ji Ziyao was very happy, even a bit excited. “Not bad! You’ve only acted in three scenes and already got a Flying Page.”
Getting a Flying Page addition is not a treatment every role gets, let alone one proactively added by the screenwriter.
This role was truly chosen right.
Moreover, he had watched Xuan Xia’s few performances and could already understand why Director Pan gave the evaluation of “talented.”
He planned to start contacting roles with more scenes for Xuan Xia.
…
Director Pan saying to start filming in an hour was to give time for the props team to prepare.
Once the props team was ready, it was time for official filming.
Since it was not early anymore, as soon as Xuan Xia and Jiang Feng started work, they cleared all distractions and fully immersed themselves in portraying the roles.
On the monitor, the two matched in height, their postures intimate. Under the sky full of floating lanterns, the scene was beautiful and even more pleasing to the eye.
But in fact, their intimacy was an illusion from blocking; they actually didn’t touch at all.
Xuan Xia’s favorable impression of Jiang Feng rose another level. He was truly a gentleman who observed propriety. Even for a perfectly justified scene, before Xuan Xia said anything, he had already shown respect first.
The additional Flying Page Scene was quickly filmed. Tonight’s filming work officially ended. Everyone said goodbye and went back to remove makeup, change clothes, and return to the hotel to rest.
On the way back to the hotel, tomorrow’s filming schedule came out.
Yang Wanxiu said: “Tomorrow there’s only one night scene, but it’s a heavy scene.”
Xuan Xia originally had a total of seven scenes. Besides tonight’s on-location scene, the only other one that could be considered a major scene was the one in the script where Chu Zheng, defeated and on the verge of death, sees Xiang Ye for the last time.
It was also the scene with her most lines.
Although she knew filming wouldn’t follow the script order, having major scenes for two days in a row was truly unexpected for Xuan Xia.
Moreover, tomorrow there was also Zhou Shiqing and the program group for a media visit.
Xuan Xia said: “Now there’s pressure.”
“What pressure? No pressure.” Ji Ziyao arranged: “Go back and sleep early. Tomorrow you’re allowed to sleep until ten. I’ll have Xiuxiu come call you at ten. Eat lunch early and go to the film crew. The program group will come directly to the film crew in the afternoon.”
Xuan Xia made an OK hand gesture.
Back at the hotel, it was almost midnight. After Xuan Xia showered and did her skincare, it was even later. She didn’t dare think too much and quickly went to sleep.
So she didn’t know that at this time, on Weibo, paparazzi were still diligently working.
[Late-night disclosure: The on-set couple you’ve always been interested in is actually like this. Today’s newcomers really aren’t as solid in acting as the predecessors from before.]
Under the text were 18 candid photos.
But setting aside the candid shots, the protagonists in the photos, whether in atmosphere or actions, exuded a different feeling.
Following the paparazzi’s first disclosure, soon more than ten marketing accounts pushed it together.
Before long, this disclosure formed a hot search and hung high in the top three of the hot search list.
“Which two has-beens are these?”
“They took the filming money and also dated on the film crew? Can such unprofessional actors be banned!”
“Wake up upstairs. The blogger already said it’s an on-set couple. You’re still whitewashing it as dating. Suggest you search the difference between the two first.”
“Damn, it’s really disgusting!!”
“Isn’t this woman the one from the dating show who was with Zhou Shiqing? Damn, zero professional ethics! Still on the dating show, and messing around on the film crew?”
“So it’s the CP from Zhou Shiqing’s dating show program? Dating shows are indeed all fake. How can anyone still ship this??”
“I said celebrity dating shows aren’t as good as all-civilian dating shows. At least the latter has real ones to ship; celebrity dating shows are just acting.”
“The internet truly has no memory. This woman is a resource person, and there was quite a bit of scandalous material before her debut. She was exposed once before, but for some reason, it disappeared later.”
“Interested, tell us upstairs.”
“…”
The hot search comments had all sorts of things, but toward the end, they became unified.
The vicious words were all aimed at the exposed female newcomer. Netizens’ tone became consistent, all demanding that this female newcomer quickly exit the entertainment industry and stop harming the entire entertainment industry.
***
Xuan Xia woke up in the morning and wanted to touch her mobile phone to check the time, but at a glance, she saw countless message notifications on her mobile phone.
Opening them, besides inquiries from classmates like Yan Xiaowen, even An Qi messaged her, asking if she had offended someone and been targeted.
After reading all the information, Xuan Xia finally understood what had happened.
At this moment, there was a knock at the door, along with Yang Wanxiu’s inquiring voice.
Xuan Xia got up to open the door.
As soon as she opened the door, before Yang Wanxiu could speak, she said first: “Xiuxiu, did I get on a hot search?”
Yang Wanxiu was first stunned, then quickly comforted: “Don’t worry, Brother Ji is already handling it.”
It was just that by the time Ji Ziyao and the others discovered it, it was a step late. The hot search had already reached a high position, and it had been exposed for quite a while.
Withdrawing the hot search now would be a bit difficult.
