Chapter 1902 - 1902 Just To Meet You
His tone was very gentle as he was worried that she would quit if he was too harsh.
Unexpectedly, the other party replied crisply, “Okay. I’m sorry to trouble everyone. I’m not in a good state today. I’m sorry!”
Her attitude made some people feel too embarrassed to give her attitude.
However, it was also quite strange. Not only did Ning Luyao not lose her temper, but she also spoke nicely to everyone.
Ning Nuo did not want to waste everyone’s time. Seeing that the assistant director was a good person, she ran over and said sincerely, “Director Ma, I’m indeed not familiar with this. Can I ask you for guidance?”
Seeing that she was humble, Director Ma felt that the sun had risen from the west. However, for the sake of collective benefits, he patiently pointed out a few things to her. Seeing that she did not even understand the most basic technical terms, he did not know if he should criticize her for not doing her job or praise her for her improvement.
When it was time to shoot again, Ning Nuo at least knew the location of the camera and the general principles of shooting. This time, she finally cooperated and completed the first shot.
Brother Yong was also sweating. Seeing that she had finally passed the first scene, he couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up. “Not bad. Keep it up!”
Ning Nuo sat down to read the script. She knew that the next scene would be her arguing with a supporting actress and a supporting actor rushing over to mediate the fight. This would be a little difficult for her.
However, she could only try her best.
At this point, helping Ning Luyao was secondary. There were so many staff members at the scene who were so busy that their feet were not touching the ground. It was only the beginning of spring, but the weather was already so hot that they were sweating profusely. She really could not bear to waste everyone’s time just because she kept making mistakes.
“Alright, it’s starting,” Brother Yong called out to Ning Nuo.
“Yao Yao, let’s work hard together!”
The actress who acted with Ning Luyao was called Li Yun. She had some acting skills. Actually, she had a good chance of getting the second female lead role played by Ning Luyao.
However, Ning Luyao appeared out of thin air and snatched this opportunity away. Thus, Li Yun could only play a supporting role. She had fewer scenes, and her character was not as good as the second female lead.
Li Yun had some opinions about Ning Luyao. In addition, she had seen Ning Luyao’s true colors during the group scene just now. Li Yun was determined to crush Ning Luyao in this scene and show her strength. She was already prepared.
“I hope to have your guidance,” Ning Nuo replied.
The scene this time was in a pavilion on the second floor. The movie had a lot of investments, so most of the scenes were filmed live. This pavilion was also newly built and was very exquisite.
The staff members were moving all kinds of equipment up.
Ning Nuo looked at the pavilion with a frown, her eyes filled with doubt.
Li Yun urged, “Yao Yao, what are you looking at?”
Ning Nuo turned a deaf ear to her. She walked around the pavilion once and then again. The equipment had been set up, and the actors were all in position. The director was only waiting for Ning Luyao.
“Yao Yao, it’s about time!” Director Ma reminded her.
If the shoot was still delayed any further, the director would lose his temper.
Besides, the weather was just right. If it was any later, who knew what the weather would be like?
No one else knew what Ning Nuo wanted to do. They only knew that she might be up to no good again!
Anyway, she was just a pretty face with no other qualities. Everyone was used to it. If she didn’t make a scene, everyone wouldn’t be used to it.
Brother Yong also went forward to pull her back. He lowered his voice and said, “Ning Nuo, what are you doing? You should be maintaining your image! Hurry up and go to work.”
“Director Luo! Director Ma! We can’t shoot this scene!” Ning Nuo lifted the hem of her dress and shouted from the staircase of the pavilion.
Director Luo was the executive director, so he was already a little dissatisfied with her delay. Seeing that she was still up to no good, he said in an unfriendly tone, “If you don’t want to shoot, we’ll shoot the others first. You can film after you adjust yourself.”
“No, Director Luo, there’s something wrong with the design of this pavilion. The support of the weight-bearing pillars might not be able to withstand the filming requirements.” Ning Nuo had noticed this when she came over just now. A pavilion like this should have at least three weight-bearing points, but there was only one.
It was easy for something to go wrong.
Director Luo’s expression darkened.
Seeing that she was up to no good, Li Yun couldn’t help but smile and say, “How is that possible? Previously, there were so many staff members coming and going without any problems. How can you say that? If you don’t desire to film, no one will force you. But you can not delay other people’s filming.
“Previously, there was indeed no problem with everyone coming and going because the weight hadn’t reached its limit. Now that all the equipment has been moved up and there’ll be many people during the official filming, the pavilion will reach its max weight capacity. There’ll definitely be problems. I suggest that we don’t film in this pavilion today.”
Everyone found Ning Nuo’s words funny.
As a pretentious bimbo, she even had a problem with her position during filming. What did she know about architecture?
She just wanted to cause trouble!
“Director Luo, Director Ma, I really strongly suggest that we check the safety of the pavilion first before filming!” Ning Nuo said anxiously. “Believe me!”
In the end, not only did the staff not believe her, but they also moved even heavier filming equipment up. They even showed off to her as they moved the things.
Everyone looked down on her in their hearts. She wanted them to check the pavilion just with a word? Then wouldn’t all the hard work they had put in for so long be in vain?
Who did she think she was?
It was fine if she made a fool of herself, but no one would indulge her when something as huge as this was at stake.
Li Yun could also tell that Ning Nuo wasn’t able to convince anyone. She said, “Director Luo, I’m willing to cooperate with you. Please shoot my scenes first!”
Director Luo nodded. “Everyone, get ready! Get into position!”
He did not take Ning Nuo’s words seriously at all.
Brother Yong stopped Ning Nuo. “Don’t talk nonsense anymore. They’ve already heard your reminder.”
“I do not think they heard it at all! Director Ma, go and persuade Director Luo! If you don’t believe me, go and take a look!” Ning Nuo grabbed Director Ma.
Director Ma was caught by her and had no choice but to follow her to see the weight-bearing pillar in the pavilion.
With one look, he realized that there were cracks on one of the weight-bearing pillars. It really did not look safe. Although he did not know much about buildings, he could recognize the cracks.
If there was a safety accident in the production team, as the assistant director, he would be implicated.
He immediately ran up to report the situation to Director Luo.
...
Since it was Director Ma who spoke, Director Luo naturally had to believe him. He had no choice but to stop filming and let everyone take the equipment down to film other scenes. He would get someone to repair this pavilion before filming again.
