Thinking of this, Xue Wen secretly took a photo and left.
The scenes in the afternoon went very smoothly, especially her scene with Meng Shaoqing.
Gong Coco didn't know how to act. She was just acting as herself. She had plans to stop acting after this drama. She didn't study acting, and as a princess, she didn't have the desire to show her face in public and be watched by everyone.
But in the last scene, Gong Coco ran into some trouble.
This scene was after the princess returned to the palace. Coincidentally, there was a banquet in the palace and all the young ladies gathered.
The female lead was being bullied by the princess she played. After the princess performed, she forced the female lead to perform as well, wanting to see the female lead make a fool of herself.
In the end, the female lead's skills were naturally better, causing the entire hall to cheer. It was a slap to the princess's face.
Gong Coco was speechless at this scene. When she was in Dai Yu State, who dared to ask her to perform at banquets? Were they tired of living?
However, she also knew that this was just acting. She couldn't take it too seriously. If she really took it seriously, although this was a period drama, it was completely incompatible with the era she was in. It was completely out of place.
But here came the problem. Originally, the princess played the zither and the female lead danced. However, the zither double suddenly had something to do and couldn't come. The director thought about it and asked Gong Coco to do it personally. He wanted her to act like she was playing the zither and add in the sound in post-production.
Gong Coco felt that it was more convenient for her to play a song instead of acting. Thus, she said, "No need, I know how to play the zither."
Gong Coco knew how to play the zither?
Many people who knew some inside information looked like they were waiting to watch a good show.
Although Gong Coco was a member of the Gong family, she was the illegitimate daughter of the Gong family. She was raised in the countryside and was only brought back when she was 16. How could such a girl know how to play the zither?
Gong Coco didn't care about those mocking gazes. Her thoughts were simple. If there was a zither in this world, then it wouldn't be out of line for her to play a song, right?
After being stunned for a moment, the director also showed an expression of disbelief. However, since Gong Coco wanted to play, he would not disagree on her request for the sake of Jiang Shangke, so he braced himself and agreed. In his heart, he thought that since there was still post-production, there was no need to worry.
Gong Coco sat down in front of the zither under everyone's complicated gazes.
As a princess, the head of the noble young ladies, other than studying, she usually learned various skills. She had always regarded her mother as a role model. How could someone like her be mediocre?
Although there was no incense and the zither was not a good zither, Gong Coco endured it and attached her inner force to her fingertips to prevent the zither strings from hurting her hands.
As soon as the director shouted to start shooting, she thought for a while and played a very famous song in Dai Yu State, "Glory and Splendor". This song was divided into three parts and time was limited, so she played the most important part of it.
Her slender jade-like fingers were attached to the strings of the zither, raising the ordinary zither to a higher level.
She seemed to have a magical power. Once she entered the state, it was as if she had become a real noble young lady.
Everyone's eyes fell on Gong Coco. At this moment, she was wearing a gorgeous princess dress and sitting in front of the zither. The noble aura that she inadvertently exuded made people unable to take their eyes off her.
In the short span of a day, they all felt that Gong Keke had become much prettier and had an outstanding temperament. Just like now, she was just sitting there and posing, but she already gave off the feeling of a big family. It was no wonder that she was able to seduce President Jiang.
However, the moment the first note came out, everyone was stunned. They did not know why, but they felt that their minds were empty!
This was because Gong Coco had accumulated inner force in her hands, so the notes she played were fuller and more distant! It could make people feel refreshed!
The next gorgeous movement came out coldly. Everyone could not help but hold their breaths, as if they did not want to disturb her.
The gorgeous palace instantly became the background. It was as if only the sound of the princess playing the zither could be heard. Meng Shaoqing was originally reading the script, but when he heard the sound, he could not help but look over. At that moment, he held his breath and focused. It was as if he had seen the real princess!
His heart was beating faster and faster. Meng Shaoqing suddenly blushed. He thought that he … seemed to like Gong Coco a little …
Time was limited. The short five minutes of music ended, but the people on the set were still in a daze. When they came back to their senses, their first reaction was to applaud. They had completely forgotten that they were still filming!
The director was stunned. He did not expect Gong Coco to really know how to play the zither. Moreover, a few minutes of music was so captivating!
Most importantly, he could tell that the song was an original! He had never heard it before!
He shouted excitedly, "Did you record it just now? Just use the original. She played it so well! "
He could not help but ask Coco, "Coco, what song did you play just now? I don't think I've heard it before! "
Gong Coco simply said, "This song is called Fu of Glory and Splendor."
The director was delighted. It was indeed a song that had not appeared in the modern world. Moreover, the style of the song was very suitable for the palace. That kind of graceful and luxurious atmosphere was something that the impetuous modern music industry could not create.
Thinking of this, his face was full of smiles. He asked eagerly, "Then … Coco, can I use this song as the ending song for our drama?"
Gong Coco saw that some people liked their song. She smiled faintly, giving off a proud and likable feeling.
"Of course."
However, at this moment, a shattering sound was heard. It turned out that Xue Wen had accidentally smashed a cup.
Xue Wen was a dancer. Basically, she had to show off her dancing skills when filming dramas. However, if she really put Gong Coco's zither song in front of everyone, who would watch her dance? How would she be able to achieve the effect of full applause?
Xue Wen's anger woke the director up from his dream. He revealed a troubled expression and suddenly did not know what to do.
Firstly, he really could not bear to part with Gong Coco's song. Secondly, for the sake of the plot, he really could not let Gong Coco steal Xue Wen's limelight.
At this moment, an assistant beside Xue Wen smiled and said, "I didn't expect Coco to play the zither so well. If this is broadcasted, people won't be able to see our Wenwen."
Gong Coco asked curiously, "Is it wrong for me to play it well? Then let's do it again. I missed it by a bit. "
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant!"
The assistant revealed a shrewd smile. "The scenes can be changed. For example, the female lead and second female lead will both play the zither. When the time comes … I'll have to trouble Coco to be Wenwen's substitute. Let's play the song just now. This way, the second female lead will play the zither first. If she misses it by a bit, the female lead will present this song. Wouldn't this be more comparable and highlight the female lead more? "
Gong Coco blinked and did not say anything. Although Xue Wen did not say anything, her expression showed that she agreed. The director was a little conflicted. Let the second female lead be the female lead's substitute. Then, in order to highlight the female lead's strength, the second female lead played the zither herself. Wasn't this bullying?
