Chapter 654: Chapter 654: Be a White Lotus Flower
After the male lead finished filming, Sheng Tang shot some additional scenes for the female lead.
These scenes were shot before. The director knew how to frame them best, and Sheng Tang’s acting skills were solid, so the shooting was quick.
Six days after Qian Zhe Lin wrapped up, Sheng Tang smoothly wrapped up as well.
The crew’s filming work also ended on this day.
This movie had a small budget of five million and was shot over fifty days.
Luckily, Ai Xiao was kicked out midway, otherwise, it would have taken eighty days, nearly three months.
A major production with investments in the billions might only take three to four months to shoot.
After wrapping up, Sheng Tang felt quite emotional and said to the director, "You really shouldn’t torment the actors like this in the future. Except for newcomers, nobody can endure it."
The director laughed heartily.
He knew Sheng Tang supported him and didn’t misinterpret her words.
He said, "My first shoot indeed wasted two-thirds of the time. Technically, this movie could have been shot in about ten days. I won’t torment you like this again."
"Fortunately, it’s digital filming now. If it were the film era, the producer would have been furious with you." Sheng Tang said.
Producer Luo Yishan also laughed beside them.
After Sheng Tang finished speaking to the director, the director countered with advice for her.
"You are so beautiful; you could entirely go for the pure and innocent route. Maintain your spotless purity and let others handle the dirty work.
Getting physical might feel satisfying temporarily but it harms your likability. Once the news spreads, it damages your reputation." the director said.
Sheng Tang nodded earnestly, "I did handle the Ai Xiao situation poorly."
"If you were an ordinary person, you did well, enjoying swift revenge. But you are about to become a big star, and it’s not suitable.
For actresses, the general public prefers those who seem approachable. In China, people don’t favor those with too much personality. Moderation is key," the director said.
Sheng Tang clinked her glass with his and thanked him for the advice.
She understood all of this.
She just thought Ai Xiao wouldn’t dare to leak the incident, as it would also be humiliating for her.
If Ai Xiao’s assistant had hit Ai’ai that day, Sheng Tang might not have dared to directly slap Ai Xiao’s assistant twice.
Actors fighting actors wouldn’t cause much talk, but hitting an assistant would be seen as bullying.
After Ai Xiao’s actions, everyone in the crew hated her, so Sheng Tang’s retaliation was well-received.
However, the director was right, the pure and innocent image is more approachable.
In her past life, Sheng Tang achieved great things with an excellent temperament but never had such excessive beauty, so she didn’t need to particularly manage her likability.
Now, she really needed to pay attention.
Even Gu Jiahui and Ke Fei mentioned that her beauty could be quite intimidating for female viewers.
After wrapping up, Sheng Tang returned to the city.
The director began the intense post-production work.
As Sheng Tang’s movie ended, Ke Fei completed handing over all of Wu Zhengting’s matters and focused entirely on Sheng Tang’s affairs.
"You’re not famous yet, so your current workload isn’t too heavy. Rest for a week, and then I’ve arranged three auditions for you," Ke Fei said.
Sheng Tang: "I don’t need to rest that long."
Ke Fei: "The first audition is in a week, so even if you don’t need it, you must rest that long. Did you think the audition schedule was set by me?"
Sheng Tang: "..."
She couldn’t help but smile.
With her resting, her assistant Ai’ai could also rest.
The assistant earned the company’s salary. When Sheng Tang became famous, she could get some year-end bonuses, but the workload was lighter than before.
When Sheng Tang got home and lay down to rest, her phone rang.
She answered.
On the other end of the line was a very excited voice: "Sis, I ran away from home, take me in quickly!"
