Before taking on the role of "Lethal Beauty", Ji Lin had already acted in quite a few shows. However, most of them were male lead roles. Because he was still underage and had a huge group of female fans with terrifying fighting strength, he had always consciously restrained himself from acting in emotional scenes. "Lethal Beauty" was considered a new genre for him to try out.
Director Liang had previously been worried that Ji Lin was inexperienced and would appear unnatural when acting with other actresses. However, when Ji Lin stood in front of Siyu, he put away his usual frivolous attitude and revealed the sharpness and sharpness of a new emperor.
This was Ji Lin's first scene. The new emperor, who had killed his way into the palace, met the captive princess of a fallen country, Yunhe. Two soldiers who had disguised themselves as extras escorted Siyu forward and forced her to kneel in front of the new emperor. Siyu's dress was tattered and her entire body was covered in blood. As soon as her knees touched the cold ground, she began coughing non-stop and blood flowed from the corners of her lips.
Director Liang and the other staff members were simply amazed. A person in charge of props said, "She, she's really vomiting blood? She's trying too hard. No wonder she said she didn't need the blood bag when I handed it to her! "
If Siyu could hear this, she would definitely cry out that she was wronged. She just couldn't stand the strange smell of the blood bag. Anyway, she could vomit blood at any time, and it was pure natural blood without any additives. Why did she have to use a blood bag? When the time came, the effects would be more realistic.
Director Liang shook his head and sighed. "You guys don't understand. I heard that this Zhou Siyu has been in poor health since she was young, but since she entered the industry, she has always been very dedicated. No matter how sick she is, she still continues to act. She really loves acting. I think with this heart of hers, she will make a name for herself sooner or later."
Someone had a bright idea and suggested, "Director Liang, we can use her as the theme and make a behind-the-scenes video. It just so happens that Lethal Beauty is about to be officially announced, so we need to release some information. What do you think?"
Director Liang thought about it and felt that it was feasible. Wasn't it popular to "hype up character designs" on the Internet now? Siyu was a ready-made material. There was no need to hype it up at all. As long as her sickly appearance was put on the screen, it would be a topic of discussion.
"Okay, you go and edit the scenes in Siyu's drama where she vomits blood or gets sick. Make it more interesting, understand?" Director Liang waved his hand and decided it was just like that.
Si Yu still didn't know that she had been set up. She finally finished vomiting blood and tried her best to ignore Ji Lin's worried gaze. She raised her head and said weakly, "You're the leader of the bandits?"
Ji Lin watched as his sister vomited blood. Every time she coughed, his heart would skip a beat. If it weren't for the cameras around them, Ji Lin would've carried his sister back to the lounge. In the end, he understood Si Yu's gaze, which was urging him to continue, so he used all of his self-control to force himself to calm down.
No one told him that she really vomited blood in this scene!
In Director Liang's eyes, Ji Lin looked at Siyu with a complicated gaze. Especially when Siyu vomited blood, there was a ripple in his eyes. Then, after a few seconds, he forced himself to calm down. There were all kinds of emotions in his eyes. It was as if this new emperor had never seen such a stubborn woman on the brink of death. He was surprised and impressed, but considering the difference between him and his enemy, he could not show these emotions. He could only hide them in his heart.
He did not expect Ji Lin to act so well. It seemed that he had worried for nothing. Director Liang was relieved. He felt that adding more scenes for Siyu was the right decision. Look at the dramatic tension between the two of them!
"I am the new emperor of the world, and also your master." Ji Lin said in a low voice. He was completely different from his usual self after getting into character. His every move was like a different person. "Your clan has abandoned you. From now on, you can only stay with me, your new master."
As if provoked by his words, Siyu clutched her chest and vomited a big mouthful of blood. She almost could not support her weak body. Her voice was weak, but her words were firm. "I, Yunhe, will only be my own master. I would rather die than be a slave!"
These words seemed to inject some strength into her limbs. Siyu suddenly straightened up, raised her hand, and pulled out Ji Lin's sword. She wanted to stab herself, but she had been tortured for a long time. That move just now had drained all her strength. Ji Lin easily took away her sword. Ji Lin raised his hand and pressed the tip of the sword against her neck.
"I have seen many people who desperately beg me to let them live, but I have never seen anyone who takes the initiative to ask for death. If you want to die, I won't let you." Ji Lin bent down and used the tip of the sword to lift Siyu's chin. He met her sharp gaze and smiled slightly. Then, he pulled the sword back. The tip of the sword was stained with Siyu's blood. Ji Lin held the sword to his lips and gently licked away the drop of blood. His expression was both evil and ruthless, making the onlookers tremble in fear. But at the same time, they were firmly attracted to him and were reluctant to move their eyes away.
Xu Qingwan stood to the side and was almost fascinated by the scene. This was her A Lin. He was still so radiant. She should have been the one acting opposite Ji Lin. She should have been the one standing in the middle and being the center of everyone's attention! Why? Why was it Zhou Siyu who stole the position that belonged to her?!
Xu Qingwan was immersed in Ji Lin's elegance while she let the strong sense of unwillingness eat away at her rationality. She knew that she should be calm. She knew that Ji Lin and Siyu's relationship could not be more than that of siblings. But she was still afraid! Ever since she was reborn, Zhou Siyu was completely different from the vicious woman in her impression. Instead, she was living a smooth life. Ji Lin was protecting her, and even the Lu family was protecting her!
Xu Qingwan was afraid. The biggest difference from her previous life was Siyu. She was afraid that if this continued, she would not be able to continue her relationship with Ji Lin!
In contrast to Xu Qingwan's complicated feelings, Director Liang sat in front of the camera. The more he watched, the more satisfied he was. When the shot came to the point where Ji Lin carried Siyu from the ground in a princess carry, walked into the underground palace, and carried her to the bed. After that, he shouted, "Cut! This is good. It doesn't look like the two of you are working together for the first time. Keep it up! "
As soon as the director shouted, the cold expression on Ji Lin's face immediately faded like the tide. He hurriedly let go of Siyu's shoulder to make it easier for him to carry her. The tips of his ears quietly turned red. In order to hide his embarrassment, he turned around and shouted, "Xiao Ai, quickly bring a towel and water!"
Xiao Ai did as she was told. Ji Lin picked up the towel and carefully wiped the blood from Siyu's lips. He then handed her a cup of water to rinse her mouth. After that, he said with some lingering fear, "Sister, you scared me. Why didn't you use a blood bag?"
"It's not like you don't know my body. Since I'm going to vomit blood, I shouldn't waste it. I should make the best use of it." Siyu held the hot tea Ji Lin gave her with both hands and smiled.
Ji Lin looked at her inside and out. After confirming that she was indeed fine, he finally felt relieved. He could not help but mutter, "I really don't know if you are my sister or my sister. Why are you even more worrisome than me?"
Xiao Ai, who was standing to the side, had already given up on persuading Ji Lin to keep a distance from Siyu in public. She rolled her eyes when she heard what he said. "Brother Ji, you also know that you are worrisome?"
As soon as her voice fell, Ji Lin turned his head angrily like an ignited firecracker. "Ning Xiao Ai, you won't get a single cent of your bonus this year!"
Siyu held Ji Lin's shoulder and could not help but laugh. She said while laughing, "Ji Lin, if you could see yourself right now, you would definitely laugh too. You would look like a puffer fish. Hahahaha … I should have recorded it!"
Director Liang looked at this scene from afar and said with emotion, "Their relationship is so good …"
Xu Qingwan stood beside him and smiled in agreement, but his nails dug deep into his palms.
…
Not long after the filming of "Lethal Beauty" began, the official photos were finally released. Ji Lin was confirmed as the male lead early on, but his huge fan base was more concerned about one question: Who was going to act with Ji Lin and steal his first screen couple?
One had to know that these female fans were very aggressive, but correspondingly, they were also very possessive of their idols. In the past, Ji Lin had taken on male lead roles, so there was no emotional connection. That was why they could accept it without any resentment. But this time was different.
"Lethal Beauty" was Ji Lin's transition work. It was also his first time acting in a romantic drama. If he acted well, the fans would inevitably be jealous and would pick on the actresses acting with him. If he did not act well, the fans would not bear to blame him. Instead, they would vent their anger on the actresses.
Therefore, if it was not handled well, the couple would not be popular and it would arouse the disgust of the fans.
Ji Lin's fan club got the news early in the morning and waited under the official Weibo of "Lethal Beauty". Once the official announcement was released, they immediately rushed to the front row to repost it. Then, they slowly clicked on the photos.
Now that the production team had the support of the Lu family, there was no problem with funding. Naturally, they were very willing to spend money. The costumes were very exquisite. There were a total of two photos of Ji Lin. One was in golden armor, riding a precious horse with a bow drawn and focused. The other was in a black dragon robe, looking dignified and cold. The two styles were completely different, but the fans screamed non-stop.
They looked down one by one. Because they had their own fan filters, they were not very satisfied with the actresses playing the female lead and the second female lead. Especially Xu Qingwan's role as Princess Yunmeng. As Yunmeng's character was willful and shrewish, her clothes were very sexy. The fans frowned when they saw her.
No way, she was wearing so little and she was going to act in a romantic drama with Ji Lin? What if this woman took the opportunity to take advantage of him during filming??
Thinking of this, their impression of Xu Qingwan was reduced by ten points.
The official announcement released a total of nine photos. When the fans flipped to the last photo, they were stunned. The scene in this photo was an underground palace. It was dark all around, and there was only a narrow window on the wall that let in a ray of sunlight. A woman in plain clothes with long hair leaned weakly on a wheelchair. Her face was pale and her lips were stained with blood. She was as thin as a willow branch. She was softly bathed in the only ray of light with her eyes slightly closed. It was as if time had stopped for her.
At that moment, the people who saw this photo all had the same thought: Which little angel was this?!
The official Weibo was very cunning and was especially good at keeping people in suspense. They only added the words "Zhou Siyu as Yunhe" on the photo and did not give any other information. The fans looked at this photo and imagined many things. They were all itching and couldn't wait to shake the official's shoulders and shout angrily: Tell us, what kind of character is this little angel? Most importantly, is she having a romantic drama with Ji Lin?! What's the meaning of not revealing anything?!
To most people, Siyu's face was very unfamiliar, but a small group of Ji Lin's diehard fans recognized her. Hey, isn't this the super dedicated and beautiful young lady who flew over to save people?!
Stewed Snow Pear with Rock Sugar: It's our Braised Fish Missy! Thank you for your concern. She accidentally slipped out of my fish tank. I'm going to carry her away now.
Lai Bed Race Champion: Hey, put her down! Fishy is everyone's Fishy. How can you monopolize it?!
Icy Willow Branch: What the f * ck? Brother Ji is going to work with Braised Fish Missy? My life is going to be in the same frame as mine?? Good news from the heavens! I'm so excited that I'm going to run ten laps to celebrate!
Some passers-by who didn't know what was going on saw how excited they were and asked curiously who Zhou Siyu was. Why were they so excited when they found out that she was in the film?
Enthusiastic fans immediately surrounded these passers-by to explain. First, they took out Siyu's cover photo and bragged about how beautiful she was. Then, they took out the video of her saving someone and praised how kind she was. Most of Siyu's fans were converted from Ji Lin's diehard fans. Therefore, they were not against Siyu's participation in the film. Instead, they were secretly happy. After all, these two people were born with first-class beauty. It was worth it just to lick their boots!
Just like that, Siyu became the clear stream under the official Weibo post. She was the only actress who wasn't picked on by Ji Lin's crazy fans. Not only that, these possessive fans warmly welcomed her.
Perhaps it was because the trend was good, but after half an hour, the official Weibo posted another behind-the-scenes video. It seemed that Siyu and Ji Lin had just finished filming a scene. Siyu was resting on the bed. His assistant said something and Ji Lin suddenly turned his head and angrily said that he wouldn't pay his assistant anymore. Then, Siyu punched Ji Lin's shoulder and laughed until she was out of breath. She even said, "Look at you. You look like a puffer fish."
Once this video was posted, the number of views instantly exceeded 100,000. Ji Lin's fans didn't feel sorry for their idol who was being mocked. Instead, they collectively laughed in the comments.
Wallflower Youth: Hahahaha, I laughed until I hit the ground. This description is too good! Braised Fish Missy and Rapeseed!
Little Princess: Looking at it carefully, Brother Ji really does look like a large puffer fish when he's angry! Cute, I think …
Are You Thin Today: I'm sorry, Brother Ji. As your hardcore fan, I know I shouldn't be like this, but … Hahahaha, it's super childish! Little Sister's words made Brother Ji dumbfounded. They seem to have a good relationship. I also joke around with my friends as casually as this.
What was even more interesting was that while Ji Lin's fans collectively "betrayed" Ji Lin and agreed with Siyu's comments, on Weibo, "Another 500 Years of Koi", which was followed by many big fans, quietly posted a sketch. It was a cartoon version of Ji Lin who also looked angry. It was beautifully drawn with the following words: Do I look like a puffer fish?
Ji Lin's fan club immediately reposted this drawing. When the fans saw it, they burst into laughter again and Ji Lin on Koi's Weibo.
Little Princess: My heart aches for Brother Ji's bad reputation again. Good job, Koi!
Two Chicken Legs: Mrs. Koi's hand speed is too fast! As soon as the video was posted, the drawing was done immediately. The miniature version of Brother Ji looks even more like a puffer fish!
Once Koi's drawing was posted, the fans instantly forgot that they had to go to the official Weibo of "Lethal Beauty" to denounce the love scenes. But just as everyone was laughing under Koi's Weibo, a post suddenly appeared on the front page of the country's largest gossip forum: "Using the back door or the unspoken rules? Digging up the history of the third female lead, Zhou Siyu. "
