Huayu 1995

Chapter 98 I'm a legitimate director (Seeking monthly votes)

It's summer now, so I definitely need to wear makeup when I'm on camera, otherwise I'll look too oily.

Su Chao obediently allowed himself to be tormented.

You'll get used to it gradually.

The makeup artist this time was a man.

He started praising Su Chao the moment he sat down.

"Oh my, little brother, you're so handsome!"

"Oh dear, that nose, that mouth."

"Oh my, is that... a pectoral muscle?"

Su Chao was able to refrain from beating him up only because he was poor, and although the guy praised him a lot, his actions were actually quite proper.

"Oh my god, director, look at those muscle lines! They're absolutely gorgeous! I've seen so many men, but this is the first time I've ever seen such beautiful muscle definition..."

Fed up!

Su Chao held back.

Not only did director Zhang Guoli come over, but advertisers and brands also came to see what was going on.

The product I photographed this morning was Safeguard.

The brand owner of Safeguard is a sophisticated woman who wears glasses and is dressed very fashionably.

It has a lot of the same feel as Rei Akasaka.

She glanced at Su Chao, then pulled Zhang Guoli aside.

Not long after, Zhang Guoli came to find Su Chao.

"The original plot was that the wife prepared a table full of dishes, the husband came home and wanted to pick them up and eat them, but the wife pulled him to wash his hands with Safeguard soap... Now the brand wants to add a scene of him taking a bath, and I can't do anything about it."

Zhang Guoli recalled that Su Chao seemed to be very averse to nudity.

But these days, money is hard to earn and life is tough. You can't just refuse to do it because you dislike it, unless you don't want to earn the money anymore.

"Brother, it's alright..."

Does Jiang Qinqin want to shower together?
"It's alright, actually I was washing it with my pants on..."

Zhang Guoli breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't let a sucker you found for a thousand dollars run away in a huff.

Especially since the brand has already seen Su Chao, it would be difficult to satisfy them if you arranged someone who isn't as handsome as him.

"Thank you bro!"

Su Chao finally finished her makeup when Jiang Qinqin arrived.

I don't know if this counts as the peak of her looks.

Anyway, men all like 18-year-olds, and no goddess could be ugly at 18.

Jiang Qinqin was indeed very beautiful at that time.

So fresh and lovely!

Very moist!

"Hello there!"

Su Chao greeted them politely.

Jianbin is a good person.

I can't let him down.

Unfortunately, Zhang Guoli, shameless as ever, actually made a sarcastic remark at a crucial moment:
"Hey, Chaochao, why are you being shy? You're not usually like this..."

Jiang Qinqin looked at Su Chao in surprise.

She thought Su Chao was a complete novice, but she didn't expect him to be so familiar with Zhang Guoli.

It's more than just familiar.

Su Chao also joined Zhang Guoli and his wife's play and listened to some restricted-content videos.

After some banter, everyone became more familiar with each other.

While waiting for Jiang Qinqin to get her makeup done, Su Chao and Zhang Guoli chatted very happily.

They even talked about family education.

"Sigh, now he and I are like oil and water."

Zhang Guoli was filled with melancholy.

You can get a new wife, but you can't get a new son.

"He's going through a rebellious phase, that's just how boys are, you need to give him a good beating!"

Su Chao encouraged Zhang Guoli to beat up his nephew.

That's a real piece of work.

"I tried it, but it didn't help."

Zhang Guoli sighed.

"That's too light a beating. Let me tell you, use a belt. Those things hurt, but they won't break bones... That's how my grandpa beat me, and look at me now..."

Make your son like me, always striving for improvement.

All that's missing is a leather whip.

"..."

Zhang Guoli hesitated.

“Brother, think about it. You’ve worked yourself to the bone to build up this family fortune for him. What if he gets into a fight when he grows up? What if he drives drunk? What if he studies too hard…”

Su Chao's words successfully made Zhang Guoli harden his fist.

Meanwhile, Jiang Qinqin on the other side had also finished her makeup. She was already a top beauty, and with makeup, she looked even more exquisite.

Even Zhang Guoli was somewhat stunned.

Suddenly, I don't find my new wife at home so appealing anymore.

However, he certainly can't change wives again.

These days, you can't just change wives easily, and cheating is a huge taboo, especially since his ex-wife has been a great help to him.

If he hadn't gone to an Antarctic research station to film a documentary, drifting on the ice for more than 140 days and nearly losing his life, he probably wouldn't have been able to smoothly enjoy his new wife's company every night.

Su Chao didn't have as many dirty thoughts as him.

He looked at Jiang Qinqin's makeup frankly and exclaimed, "Classmate, you are really beautiful."

Jiang Qinqin was only a year or two older than him.

There's no need to call me "sister." "You're handsome too!"

Jiang Qinqin responded with a generous compliment.

In fact, as soon as she entered the advertising company, her eyes were immediately drawn to the tall and handsome Su Chao.

Even standing next to a big star like Zhang Guoli, she is in no way inferior.

"Alright, you two get ready, let's get started quickly."

Zhang Guoli wanted to finish work quickly.

Su Chao has another advertisement to shoot later.

The cattle and horses must be fully exploited.

The so-called preparation was just Su Chao and Jiang Qinqin rehearsing first.

The advertising company decorated the space with a home-like atmosphere.

Jiang Qinqin brought a plate of food out of the kitchen and placed it on the dining table. Just then, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door and found that her husband had returned.

"Can you give me a hug?"

The woman from the brand was watching from the side and started gesturing wildly.

"A hug? That's unnecessary."

Zhang Guoli was exasperated. Why were they adding more scenes? It was only a few dozen seconds of commercial time; how was he supposed to edit it later?

"They're both so young and don't have any children, so they're obviously a newlywed couple. Look at any newlywed couple, they're always all lovey-dovey."

The brand owners have a lot of life experience.

"That's true. You... you decide what to do."

It's difficult, but we have to do it; after all, they're the client.

It's actually not difficult to do.

For both Su Chao and Jiang Qinqin, the hug was effortless.

Moreover, they also incorporated their own interpretations.

For example, Su Chao looked tired when he first appeared on camera, but when the door opened and he saw his new wife, he showed genuine joy.

Jiang Qinqin happily jumped into Su Chao's arms.

Su Chao held her tightly.

The brand owner was very satisfied and couldn't help but smile.

This is known in later generations as "auntie's smile".

"Should we go hand in hand, or... what?"

Jiang Qinqin felt no discomfort at all.

In reality, most people judge by looks and physique. If Su Chao were ugly and smelled bad, she definitely wouldn't want to hug or cuddle with him.

Now Su Chao is good-looking and clean, and she even thinks that Su Chao has a very nice smell.

Then it's okay to hug them a little longer.

Jiang Qinqin took Su Chao's hand openly, and the two moved together to the dining table.

Su Chao saw his favorite dish and couldn't resist cooking it.

Jiang Qinqin playfully slapped his hand away.

Su Chao went to the sink to wash his hands with a grin, and Jiang Qinqin opened a box of Safeguard soap and handed it to Su Chao.

"Could you wash him with soap?"

The brand's representative couldn't resist the urge to reappear and popped up again.

People will only watch an advertisement if it's well-made.

Only then will people pay attention to the product.

Everything is for selling goods!
"..."

Zhang Guoli's face turned red with anger.

I'm shooting an advertisement, not an Ivy film. Aren't you afraid of setting a bad example for children by flirting in front of the whole country?
Jiang Qinqin didn't say anything, but moistened the soap and then rubbed it on Su Chao's hands.

Su Chao could only reluctantly cooperate.

This process inevitably involves various slippery conditions.

The last scene is Su Chao taking a shower in the bathroom, and then calling out to his wife, "Bring me the Safeguard soap."

Then Jiang Qinqin entered the painting.

Two hands, one big and one small, together held a bar of soap.

Then the video can end.

No more filming!
As for whether the two of them showered together or something else, we can only use our imagination.

Zhang Guoli didn't want to say anything more.

He's a serious director, and the two actors he found were also serious actors, but unfortunately they ran into a not-so-serious brand.

Fortunately, what is filmed and what is broadcast are not the same thing.

It depends on the subsequent editing. If it can't pass the review, we can always make some changes.

Just shoot more footage.

After rehearsals were completed, filming began.

Go through the process we just rehearsed.

Compared to before, you need to pay attention to the camera position and avoid looking around aimlessly.

It's just like a real young couple living together.

Zhang Guoli was surprised to find that Su Chao's performance was even better than Jiang Qinqin's.

Jiang Qinqin was admitted to Chongqing Art School at the age of 10 to study Peking Opera. She initially studied Qingyi (female role in Peking Opera) but later switched to Daomadan (female warrior role in Peking Opera).

After graduating from art school, he joined the Chongqing Peking Opera Troupe.

Last year, he was admitted to Beijing Film Academy with the highest score in the national art examination.

They have received at least one year of professional training.

However, she was led by Su Chao in her performance, and the rhythm of the performance was controlled by him throughout.

I really underestimated this kid.

It's totally worth the 1,000 yuan.
