Yan Qingchi's partner in this scene was Ji Sixing. Zhou Fang came to find Meng Luo to inquire about the progress of the police's investigation of the case and was set up by Meng Luo. Zhou Fang lied that he was Meng Wen's former colleague. He said that he was sad when he heard that Meng Wen was killed and wanted to pay tribute to him. He also wanted to persuade Meng Luo to restrain his grief.
Meng Luo knew that the person in front of him had almost killed Meng Wen, but he was careless and left in a hurry, allowing Meng Luo to finish the job. He knew that Zhou Fang might become his knife and shield, allowing him to retreat safely after eliminating the person he wanted to eliminate. Therefore, he cautiously responded to Zhou Fang's question. He not only showed his innocence and restraint, but also set a trap in his words to lead Zhou Fang into the trap.
This was a scene that seemed calm and peaceful, but was actually filled with turbulent undercurrents. That is, if the two of them could act it well.
Yan Qingchi had already memorized his lines. He answered Ji Sixing's words carefully. His tone was very light and his expression was simple. Ji Sixing looked much more shrewd and confident than him.
The two of them were filming when Director Wang suddenly shouted, "Cut, Yan Qingchi, you're standing in the wrong position. You should be a little more to the right."
Yan Qingchi immediately adjusted and started filming again.
However, Director Wang shouted cut again. "Yan Qingchi, what are you doing? Don't you know that you're out of camera range?"
Yan Qingchi was dumbfounded. He really didn't know. He looked at Director Wang and then at Ji Sixing, only to realize that their positions were different from the ones they had during the audition before the official shooting.
Yan Qingchi looked at Ji Sixing. "Brother Ji, I …"
"Xiao Qingchi, this is your first film, right? Filming is like this. You're a newcomer, so it's inevitable that you'll make mistakes. It's okay, you'll be fine after a few more takes." Ji Sixing said with a smile.
Yan Qingchi looked at his smile that didn't reach his eyes and didn't say anything else.
There was no doubt that the next few takes were cut several times. Ji Sixing seemed to inadvertently lead him to the wrong positions. Yan Qingchi simply didn't cooperate with his actions and stood in the same place. Director Wang scolded him, "Are you a pillar? Your feet are nailed to the ground, you can't move!"
Jiang Mochen looked at him with a rare expression. It seemed that he didn't know whether to move or not. He could only stand in a small place and be watched by others while the director scolded him.
This wasn't the Yan Qingchi he was familiar with. Yan Qingchi was always calm and confident. This kind of helpless look was too embarrassing for him. Jiang Mochen unconsciously frowned and looked coldly at Ji Sixing, who was standing in front of Yan Qingchi. He didn't remember when Yan Qingchi had offended Ji Sixing. The two of them didn't know each other before. During the three days of filming, Yan Qingchi just sat quietly by the side and watched. He only acted with Su Nuan yesterday because of her request. However, Ji Sixing didn't know Su Nuan, so there was no reason for him to vent his anger on Su Nuan. Then why?
Jiang Mochen couldn't figure it out, but this didn't stop him. He quickly found a reason. There was no reason. It was normal for people in the entertainment industry to talk back to famous people and worship the strong while stepping on the weak. He thought that Ji Sixing only talked back to famous people and worshipped the strong. He didn't expect that he had the habit of stepping on the weak.
Suppressing newcomers wasn't a strange thing in the entertainment industry. Jiang Mochen had a strong background and hadn't encountered it before, but he had more or less seen it from others. It was just that today, he saw it again from Yan Qingchi.
Jiang Mochen's face was cold. He felt that this kind of behavior was really disgusting.
Director Wang saw that Yan Qingchi's condition was obviously declining, so he waved his hand and asked him to leave. He planned to film other people's scenes first. Yan Qingchi inexplicably felt relieved. He apologized to Director Wang and walked awkwardly to the resting area.
Jiang Mochen looked at him with his head lowered. The joy he felt before going on stage had long disappeared. Clearly, he was full of confidence before, and he was in high spirits last night. Now, he looked like a defeated rooster, even his comb drooping.
He walked up and walked to Yan Qingchi's side before he sat down. Yan Qingchi felt someone coming over. He looked up and saw Jiang Mochen looking at him with a serious expression.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Come with me." Jiang Mochen finished speaking and turned to walk out.
Yan Qingchi had no choice but to follow him.
Jiang Mochen walked very quickly, and Yan Qingchi followed him. After a while, the two of them returned to the hotel room.
"Why are you back?"
Jiang Mochen inserted the room card and turned to look at him.
Yan Qingchi didn't have much of an expression. When he saw that Jiang Mochen was looking at him, he leaned back against the wall. "Are you angry? Do you feel that I embarrassed you? "
"I'm quite angry. Aren't you usually very smart? Why are you so stupid now?"
"How am I stupid?"
"Ji Sixing is obviously setting a trap for you. Can't you see it?"
"So what if I can see it?" Yan Qingchi retorted. "Can I say 'Director Wang, look, he's setting me up' in front of everyone? Or can I beat Ji Sixing up on the spot and tell him not to play these little tricks? I can't. I just entered this industry, and I'm still a newcomer. What's a newcomer? Isn't it just someone who can be stepped on casually because they're more famous and experienced than you? I can only try my best to save myself. But this is my first time acting, how would I know these things? "
"Yesterday, I praised you for paying attention in class. Today, you've forgotten the positioning that the teacher taught you?" Jiang Mochen simply didn't understand. "He's trying to lead you to the wrong positioning. Why don't you just lead him back?"
Yan Qingchi didn't say anything. What should he say? That he went to a proper liberal arts school, not an acting school? He wasn't the original owner. How could he have attended those classes? Lead him back? He didn't even know what was going on with the positioning, alright?!
Jiang Mochen saw that he didn't say anything and thought that he was angry. After all, Yan Qingchi had just been bullied by Ji Sixing and was constantly criticized by Director Wang. Now that he finally got off the set and was taken away by him, he probably thought that Jiang Mochen would comfort him. In the end, he was still scolded. If it were him, he would probably be angry too.
He cleared his throat and said gently, "I'm not scolding you."
