Chapter 189 Entertainment Circle (6)
Female beggar?!
Mai Duoer's face was a little stiff. How could she be a beggar?
Mai Duoer was a little girl after all. She said that she could take any role except the role of selling sex, but she couldn't accept the idea of playing a beggar.
Mai Duoer looked at Ning Shu, who said calmly, "If you don't want to play it, forget it. Let's go to other studios to see if there are any suitable roles."
"You are a newcomer. This way you can take a firm step. If you really want to be an actor, these inconspicuous roles can help you improve your acting skills." Ning Shu seemed to really care about Mai Duoer.
Mai Duoer bit her lip and said firmly to Ning Shu, "I understand, Sister Chen."
Mai Duoer agreed to play the role of a beggar, and a makeup artist came to put on makeup for her. She asked Mai Duoer to take off her white dress and put on dirty and tattered clothes. Her soft hair was messed up, and there was dirt on her head. Her face was covered with black and gray. It was impossible to tell who she was.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Mai Duoer almost collapsed. How could she be like this? Especially when Mai Duoer looked at the heroine of this play, who was wearing beautiful ancient costumes, with long flowing hair, and was extremely beautiful. She was completely different from herself, which made Mai Duoer feel sour in her heart.
Mai Duoer looked at her agent who was smiling at her not far away, took a deep breath, and prepared to act well. Through her own efforts, she would definitely become an actor and act in beautiful clothes. She would
definitely let her agent find a good role for her.
Mai Duoer's role actually had quite a lot of shots, which was to beg the heroine of this play, and the heroine gave her the dry food on her body.
Mai Duoer had only two lines in total, "Please, miss, give me some food." "Thank you, miss."
Mai Duoer, who was acting for the first time, was very nervous and excited. Standing next to Ning Shu, Ning Shu could feel her body trembling slightly. Ning Shu comforted her, "It's okay, just act well."
When it was Mai Duoer's turn, the stage manager came to call Mai Duoer, let Mai Duoer sleep on the side of the road, and then waited for the heroine to come.
Mai Duo'er's body was very stiff, and she lay on the ground in a very stiff posture. There were so many people around, and the dust raised by their walking made it difficult for Mai Duo to breathe.
"The beggar over there, relax a little, you are too hungry now." The director shouted at Mai Duo with a loudspeaker.
Mai Duo'er's body became even stiffer, and she lay on the ground like a piece of wood, which made the director very angry. He asked Mai Duo to turn her back to the camera, which was much better.
Ning Shu watched from the side. If this was the case, Mai Duo'er would have lost her two lines.
When the director shouted "start", Mai Duo had been lying on the ground. When she heard the director's voice, her head was buzzing, her palms were covered with cold sweat, and she dared not move.
The heroine stood in front of Mai Duoer and said, "This person is so pitiful." Then she put the dry food she had on her body into the broken bowl in front of Mai Duoer. Seeing that the person lying on the ground did not react, the heroine reached out and pushed Mai Duoer, who was dressed as a beggar, and asked, "Are you okay? Now you have food."
"Kakakaka..." the director shouted angrily with a loudspeaker. When Mai Duoer heard the director's voice, her body trembled. She quickly got up from the ground and apologized to the director: "Yes... I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
"You are a beggar now. You have been hungry for many days. Your first reaction when you see food is to grab it and eat it. How can you react at all? Can you act? Any extra can do better than you." The director would not be polite to Mai Duoer just because she was a woman. Besides, Mai Duoer was dirty all over and her face was covered with blood. She didn't look like a human being at all, let alone pity. Mai Duoer was scolded by the director and broke out in cold sweat. She felt wronged and almost cried.
Ning Shu walked over and said, "Director, my artist has caused you trouble. Please give her another chance. She didn't grasp the rhythm before."
The director snorted, "Continue from where you started just now."
The heroine put the dry food in the bowl in front of Mai Duoer. Mai Duoer turned around stiffly and grabbed the dry food in the bowl. Mai Duoer didn't know what the dry food was made of, and it was placed in such a dirty bowl. Mai Duoer took a bite of the dry food hesitantly and almost vomited it out.
"Ka Ka Ka..." The director's voice roared again, pointing at Mai Duoer and shouting: "Eat with big mouthfuls, wolf down your food, why are you like this, stagehand, this person is not good, change someone."
Mai Duoer's nose was sour, and she almost cried. She looked at Ning Shu pitifully. Ning Shu had a faint expression, turned her head and said to the director: "Director, this is the last time. If it doesn't work this time, the director will remove her."
The director's face was very bad, and his eyes looked very fierce, "I have never seen such a stupid person, like a pig."
Trying again, Mai Duoer stuffed food into her mouth without caring, and even felt that her teeth were knocked by sand.
This time the director barely passed. When she heard the director passed, Mai Duoer spit out the food in her mouth, tears came down, and she felt very sad, very sad.
When she saw the gorgeously dressed heroine in front of her slowly walking in front of her, Mai Duoer felt something breaking out of her heart.
Ning Shu walked over and helped Mai Duoer up, saying, "Go change your clothes. You're tired today. Go back and have a good rest."
Ning Shu looked at Mai Duoer's face, which was covered with dust and tears. Her face was simply unbearable to look at. Ning Shu took out a piece of paper and asked Mai Duoer to wipe her face clean.
"Sister Chen, do you think I'm useless?" What happened today has brought a great shock to Mai Duoer. She regards being an actor as her ideal and thinks she has talent, but now she just wants to cry.
Ning Shu just comforted her, "Just take your time."
Mai Duoer went in to change clothes. When she came out, she was wearing a white dress with black marks all over it, and Mai Duoer's neck was also black. Anyway, she played a beggar and was dirty all over.
Ning Shu got in the car, and Mai Duoer followed. As soon as she got in the car, Mai Duoer started crying.
This was unbearable. Mai Duoer met Mo Juefeng and had a fight with Mo Juefeng from Chinese medicine. From then on, her star path was open. When others were struggling to climb, Mai Duoer did not suffer at all. Mo Juefeng was Mai Duoer's golden finger.
Chen Xi always takes Mai Duoer to various banquets and dinners, just because he doesn't want Mai Duoer to suffer like this. If there are directors and producers who like Mai Duoer and think she is suitable for a role, they will let her play a role.
Maybe Chen Xi's style is a bit radical, but he is not as bad as Mai Duoer said, a pimp. At least Chen Xi did not let the female artists under his command climb into other people's beds.
