Chapter 147 - Song Ci’s Favorable Review
Director Zhao nodded.
“You’ve picked the right person.”
The assistant director did not expect Song Ci to perform so well either. At first, he only chose her because she was good-looking. Even if Song Ci was unable to act well, she could still be eye-candy. Moreover, he was acquainted with Yang Haoran and was simply doing a favor for him.
After Song Ci and Lin Ting’s scene was done, they finally wrapped up for the day. Song Ci looked at the time.
‘Lu Gan is probably asleep by now. I shouldn’t disturb him.’
Meanwhile, Lu Gan was looking at the vast night sky.
‘If I visit Song Ci tomorrow, will she be surprised? Sigh… I really hate relying on sleeping pills.’
Song Ci was a “sleeping pill” without side effects. Lu Gan had become picky ever since they met! He no longer wanted to use regular sleeping pills!
Song Ci was unaware that Lu Gan planned to visit her. In fact, she was too busy being happy. The official poster for her film had just been released. Song Ci’s social media platform was flooded with positive comments.
The film was based on a popular novel titled “Rushing For Ten Years”. Many fans looked forward to it and followed the production.
Song Ci was a little nervous when she accessed her social media.
[ He Lian Er’s image looked cold, but her eyes are so mysterious! ]
[ The actress looks young. Is she actually a university student? ]
[ They probably over-edited her. ]
[ I don’t think so. She looks really natural. It’s like He Lian Er had walked out from the book! ]
…
Most of the fans seemed to be very satisfied with Song Ci. They did not complain about her not being famous enough. As long as she acted well, things should be fine.
Song Ci began reading comments about the other cast. Surprisingly, Lu Jingming was not well-received.
[ Why is Lu Jingming going with this style again?! Is he acting as “Tiger” or himself? There’s no difference at all! ]
[ Is he only able to act as himself? ]
Some of Lu Jingming’s fans retaliated against those comments.
Song Ci noticed that Lu Jingming’s appearance really did not change much from usual. His makeup artist highlighted his strengths and covered the flaws. Even though Lu Jingming looked good, he did not fit the character.
Of course, there were also people who were displeased with Song Ci. They felt that she was trying to upstage Lu Jingming.
Song Ci could not help but feel a little scared. What if Lu Jingming’s fans directed their hate toward her? Fortunately, his fans could not be bothered with a minor character like her.
After reading some more comments, Song Ci heaved a sigh of relief. She prayed that Lu Jingming would not vent his anger on her.
On the other hand, Lu Jingming’s expression did not look good. He pursed his lips while reading the comments.
His assistant had found some of Song Ci’s previous work and handed it to Lu Jingming.
“Are there any other scenes involving her?”
Lu Jingming asked after he finished watching the videos.
“No.”
Lu Jingming said in disbelief, “How is that possible?”
The assistant replied affirmatively, “This is all I can find. She’s not famous and hasn’t acted much. Her company probably fought really hard for those two roles.”
Lu Jingming looked at his assistant.
“Do you believe in miracles?”
His assistant was puzzled.
“Maybe Song Ci has a twin sister with extraordinary acting skills!”
At this point, Lu Jingming’s assistant was utterly confused.
‘Has he lost his mind?’
Lu Jingming looked at the videos and official poster again.
‘Are they really the same person? Is it possible for a person to improve so much in such a short amount of time? How incredible!’
