The lights and camera were in place and Luo Chen was standing in front of the camera.
Ye Wanwan sat in the chair opposite him and waited quietly.
Very quickly, three minutes passed.
Ye Wanwan: "Time's up."
A hint of panic flashed in Luo Chen's eyes and he hurriedly said, "Born a sin, what a good 'born... born...'"
Probably because he wasn't used to the camera yet, Luo Chen got stuck after just one sentence.
Ye Wanwan furrowed her brows. "Again."
Luo Chen clenched his fists, took a deep breath and started again.
"Born a sin, what a good 'born a sin'... me and everyone else..."
He was about to continue reciting when Ye Wanwan interrupted him. "Your expression is too stiff. I'm asking you to reenact, not read your lines. Again. "
Luo Chen's face turned pale. He closed his eyes and adjusted his state of mind before speaking again.
"Born..."
However, this time, he only managed to say two words before he was stuck.
Luo Chen's face was completely drained of blood. "Sorry!"
Ye Wanwan's face was expressionless. "Again."
However, on the fourth take, Luo Chen still didn't get the feeling.
Following that, Ye Wanwan kept shouting "cut". Luo Chen retook more than ten takes but still couldn't get through.
On the 20th take, Ye Wanwan's fingers, which were tapping on the armrest, stopped as Luo Chen's performance worsened. There wasn't a single trace of warmth on her face.
As if they sensed the manager's extreme displeasure, the atmosphere in the studio became extremely tense and nobody dared to make a sound.
Under everyone's gaze, Luo Chen's entire body was drenched in sweat and his fingers were clenched into fists.
I can't do it...
I really can't do it...
He used to be like a fish in water in front of the camera, but now, his body would stiffen and turn cold when he faced the camera and the people around him. He couldn't control it at all and even developed a deep sense of self-loathing from the bottom of his heart.
Ye Wanwan naturally noticed something was wrong with Luo Chen.
Not only was he repulsed by the camera, but he was also repulsed by himself.
In the past, Luo Chen was brimming with spiritual energy and was extremely confident in front of the camera as if it was his home field, his world. But now, the camera was like a cage to him and his entire body felt like it was bound by invisible shackles.
Apart from that, she could also tell that Luo Chen seemed to hate his own face and was always subconsciously avoiding the camera.
Although she more or less expected it, Luo Chen's situation was worse than she imagined …
"Pa — —" Ye Wanwan slammed the stack of documents on the table next to her and said coldly, "This face is your greatest advantage; it's a talent that many people yearn for but don't yearn for. It's a gift from the heavens! You reject it, hate the bad luck it brings you? Let me tell you, all your tragedies are not because of this face, but because of your cowardice and incompetence!
Meng Liang Chu won best actor at the age of 18 but because his mother was seriously ill, he went into hiatus for six years and returned at the age of 24, winning his second best actor award; Li Zhong Yi acted as a supporting actor for 30 years and only acted as the male lead at the age of 53 and became an instant hit; Qiao Ke Xin has been slandered ever since she debuted but she went against the tide and never showed any weakness until she was nominated for the Golden Orchid best actress award this year. And you've only missed three years of unfair treatment and you think your life has come to an end? "
Speaking up to this point, Ye Wanwan's face was extremely cold. "In a place like the entertainment industry, if you want to reach the top, you'll have to experience a hundred or a thousand times more unbearable and unbearable pressure. If this is all you've got, I'm sorry, but I advise you to leave the entertainment industry as soon as possible. I won't waste my time on an artist without any conviction!"
