Chapter 106 The Holy Maiden of Light

...

Thomas was like a cat that only smelled the fishy smell. At a speed that did not match his weight, he rushed to Chen Mengting in two steps in three steps, glanced at her up and down with a scalpel-like look, with bright eyes shining in his eyes, and murmured some words: "Perfect, really perfect. ≧This figure, this appearance, and this temperament look like the eldest lady of the Zhou family."

Yes, that's right!

Miss Zhou family.

The theme element of the promotional film shot by Thomas's team this time is the beautiful and desolate love story between the Li Yu Lake God and the eldest daughter of the Zhou family hundreds of years ago.

When Wang Yan first heard about this creative core, he was also shocked. At that time, the story between Li Hualong and the eldest daughter of the Zhou family was actually very simple. How could there be any story about whether love or not?

What's more, Li Hualong was just a big carp with a spiritual beginning, a shallow Taoist practice, and even the demon pills had not yet condensed. It was not very fundamentally different from the big crab that was staying in the fishing boat outside.

However, with the in-depth creation of their team, Wang Yan felt that the core story creativity was still a bit interesting. Moreover, the Zhou family has also made in-depth brewing and continuous reprocessing of this story for hundreds of years.

In short, this story evolved into a beautiful and tragic legendary story, and Thomas was to be displayed in the original flavor in just five minutes of promotional video.

He is worthy of being the best director, ambitious and capable.

It turns out that the only thing that made Wang Yan a little embarrassed was that it was really difficult to substitute for himself to play the carp spirit Li Hualong. The reason was very simple. Every time he thought of the carp spirit, Wang Yan would think of Li Hualong's square face, and the appearance of an ancient general wearing a sling and holding a three-pointed and two-edged sword.

Now there is another embarrassment, that is, Thomas actually fell in love with Chen Mengting as the heroine and came to play the role of the eldest daughter of the Zhou family. According to the content of this promotional video, there are many beautiful scenes of knowing each other and falling in love.

"This, Director Thomas. This Miss Chen Mengting is the head of the Shen Group." In order to avoid embarrassment, Wang Yan actively explained in stuttering English, "She is not a professional actor."

"No, no. Unless it is the most powerful actor who is like a play and a play is like a life. Otherwise, there will be obvious traces of carving on ordinary actors." Thomas shook his head seriously and said, "The effect I want in my mind is the most natural and purest interpretation. And this lady has the intellectuality and restrained temperament of a lady from ancient China."

After Zhou Zhiyi translated, he smiled and said to Chen Mengting: "Niece Mengting, I know that this request may make you very embarrassed. The rewards for shooting promotional videos cannot touch your heart. But why not try more fresh feelings in life? Perhaps, this will help you truly open your closed heart."

"This..." Chen Mengting frowned, as if she was reluctant.

"Mr. Chen, I think this is a good opportunity." Zeng Ling advised with a bright eye, "You should try more different life situations. Anyway, it's just a promotional video, not a big movie series or something."

"If this lady is interested, you can try the role of the maid of the eldest lady of the Zhou family." Although Thomas does not understand Chinese, as a director, being exposed to absorbing different cultural elements from various countries and civilizations is his most basic professional quality. Therefore, he is not unfamiliar with Chinese classical culture.

He has understood and absorbed elements in classical classics such as "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai", "The West Chamber", "Dream of the Red Chamber", etc. Many of the elements in the promotional films of the legend of Lake God come from classical classics.

The role of a maid is naturally an indispensable role for the Chinese classical lady theme.

"This is so interesting." Zeng Ling held the frame and actively persuaded Chen Mengting, who was hesitant, "Mr. Chen, this time we were just coming out to relax. We made a guest appearance in a promotional video, just take it as a relaxation after work."

"Mengting, just treats it as doing Uncle Zhou a favor." Zhou Zhi repeatedly said, "This promotional video is crucial to Uncle Zhou's future strategy. And Thomas is a stubborn old man who likes to pursue perfection. If you refuse to shoot it, it will definitely affect his creative mood."

After everyone's persuasion, Chen Mengting nodded after thinking and saying: "Okay, since Uncle Zhou has said that, I'll try it. However, I don't have any acting experience and I'm afraid I won't be able to act well."

"Don't worry, Mengting, this is just a promotional film. It mostly shows the story in the form of pictures." Zhou Zhiyi happily twisted the beads and dispelled the other party's doubts, "There are basically no requirements for acting. Besides, Mengting, you are originally a lady with a profound background, just keep your true colors and perform."

Wang Yan could not even get his mouth in this series of words, and the matter was decided.

Forget it, take money and eliminate disasters with others. Who should I shoot a movie with?

The following meeting became much more enthusiastic after joining Shen Mengting and Zeng Ling. Thomas, who found the heroine in his mind, seemed to have been inspired to create enthusiasm, and several consecutive scenes were better interpreted.

The meeting lasted until afternoon. After everyone hurriedly had some simple meals, they started working hard. Wang Yan and Shen Mengting each tried out, auditions, and on-site rehearsals.

It has to be admitted that the experienced and experienced director Thomas is still very sensible. After Chen Mengting changed into ancient costumes, she really interpreted a classical Jiangnan lady to the fullest. She is intellectual, dignified, graceful, kind, and has the urge and power to break free from the shackles of secular ethics.

In the scene of releasing the carp, her figure, eyes and expression were perfect. Even Thomas, who was picky, raised her thumb and called good.

Although Wang Yan has no acting experience, his physical fitness has evolved to a non-human level, including memory and comprehension.

Looking at this scene in Qinghu Lake, Wang Yan was dressed in ancient scholar costumes, walking in the blue waves, just to look at her passing by Huixian Bridge from afar. Then he rode the wind and waves away.

Although the play is beautiful and has a distant meaning, Wang Yan secretly complained that the carp is clearly an ancient military general wearing golden armor, and this sense of scholarship is really inconsistent.

The stories of stories include the ancient and beautiful scenery of the ancient town. The moving and moving interpretation of handsome men and beautiful women makes the entire shooting team constantly surprised.

Moreover, Wang Yan and Shen Mengting seem to be very talented. Many scenes only need to be rehearsed once to quickly master various key points, perform smoothly and flawlessly, integrate into natural scenery, and the artistic conception is natural.

This greatly accelerated the entire filming progress. By the evening when the sun was setting, it had reached the last few scenes.

...

at the same time.

Huahai City State-owned Foreign Affairs Bureau.

The huge conference room is decorated in luxuriously and bright as daytime. There are lush potted planting scenes everywhere, with colorful butterflies dancing, flowers scented and fruitful. There are even a few birds jumping around a camphor tree, catching little bugs to eat, and having fun.

If we didn’t know in advance, who would have thought that deep underground could create such a pure and beautiful natural ecological environment?

"Director Huangfu." Xiao Hei, a computer technician wearing black-framed glasses, said with a tired look on his face, "Among these 987 people, after a day and night of secret investigation, all the impossibility was eliminated, and there are 316 suspect targets left."

Huangfu Nanlian, who was wearing sunglasses, showed a cold and frosty temperament, frowned slightly and said, "Breaking Bear, the Scud has gone out until now, haven't you found the old god yet?"

Burning bear drank coffee to refresh himself, and said with a haggard expression: "Miss Huangfu, you don't know. The old god has always been elusive and has uncertain whereabouts. Even if he calls the Sky Eye System, it is impossible to find him... unless he is willing to let us find it. This blood angel leader's B-level mission is really difficult to deal with, and the enemy is too cunning."

"B-level tasks are very difficult, and there are many B-level tasks that take several months or even one or two years." Huangfu Nanlian said calmly, "We are very close to the target. More than 300 suspects are investigated one by one."

"With that being said, I heard that our brother Wang Yan easily accomplished a B-level mission and received good reviews." Baoxiong said with a faint face and enviousness, "The merit value I have added up for many years is not as much as he has gained in a day. It's really a bit more than humans, which is so annoying."

When talking about Wang Yan, Nan Lian also smiled. I have to admit that Wang Yan was really lucky. She easily picked up a B-level mission, and even got 250 merit points. Adding some remaining merit points, it is enough to exchange for 2 B-level inner alchemy essences.

At this moment, Zhao Xiu's voice sounded at the door: "Miss Lulu, please come here."

Miss Lulu?

Nan Lian's face changed slightly. Could it be that the legendary contemporary saint Lulu Avilina of the Holy See of Light? In the conference room, everyone's eyes were condensed.

The conference room door was opened, and a pure and soft breath of light spread silently into the conference room. It was integrated into everyone's body and heart, warmly as if you were bathing in a hot spring, and the feeling of fatigue was instantly dispelled.
