I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 138 Scolding Princess Sweetie Until She Cries
During the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao said that Yuan Shao had three hundred complete sets of armor, while Cao Cao himself didn't even have ten.

This indicates that some cavalrymen at that time had already begun to use heavy protective gear. In addition, with the invention and widespread use of stirrups, cavalrymen would not fall off their horses even if they wore the heaviest armor.

Therefore, apart from horseshoes not being invented, stirrups and saddles already existed.

"I understand, director, I'll control it well," Da Tian Tian said confidently.

Since Wang Zhi left to film a movie, Da Tian Tian hasn't slacked off. She insists on practicing horseback riding every day, to the point that the skin on her upper thighs is chafed raw.

But she was willing to endure any hardship in order to make a good film.

This is what Cheng Sheng is most satisfied with.

For this reason, Cheng Sheng even went out of his way to find a female doctor to apply medicine to Da Tian Tian.

"Photographer, prop master, lighting, get ready..."

As executive director Liu Meng finished speaking, the war scene began.

With Cheng Sheng's immersive experience, dramatic scenes rarely resulted in unexpected mistakes or required retakes.

But war dramas are different. Large-scale war dramas require the cooperation of many people, making them very difficult to film.

Even if you are physically present in the situation, the probability of making a mistake is still very high.

When filming the scene where Jing Tian, ​​who plays Fan Yuan, charges into the enemy camp intending to wreak havoc, her performance faltered.

"Card!"

Liu Meng hurriedly called out.

Everyone looked at Liu Meng.

"Sweetie, why did you stop charging halfway?" Liu Meng questioned Sweetie.

"Director, I...I'm scared," Da Tian Tian said nervously.

You're telling me you're scared now?
Upon hearing this, Cheng Sheng, the director behind the scenes, slapped his forehead.

He considered every possibility, but not the changes in people's hearts.

The "immersive experience" buff is indeed useful, allowing everyone to get into the role, but people's hearts are not easily changed.

It's obvious that this is Jing Tian's first time filming a war drama, and she doesn't really understand the cruelty of war scenes.

She was clearly about to charge forward and kill the enemy with her spear, but she stopped halfway through, which clearly shows she's a greenhorn.

But Fan Yuan was a female general on the battlefield; how could she possibly stop?

"Again."

Liu Meng said helplessly.

Filming resumed.

Boom!
"Card!"

Liu Meng was speechless when he saw the spear fall from Da Tian Tian's hand.

Even though the spear was already quite light, Da Tian Tian still couldn't hold it steady.

"Let's start over."

"Card!"

"Let's start over."

"Card……"

More than ten times in a row, it was Da Tian Tian who made the mistake.

Cheng Sheng's face turned gloomy.

He never expected that, even with the immersive experience, Da Tian Tian would still make so many mistakes.

Without this cheat code, would Jing Tian still be able to film war dramas?

At that moment, he finally understood why Da Tian Tian had been criticized in the early stages.

She's not afraid of hard work when filming, but with acting skills like that, it's no wonder people criticize her.

Liu Meng was extremely troubled; this one war scene had taken as long as filming a dozen or so dialogue scenes.

"Again."

Liu Meng gritted his teeth and said.

Everyone started over.

Snapped!
Just as Da Tian Tian mounted her horse, she suddenly fell off. This startled those nearby, who quickly rushed forward to check on her.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Da Tian Tian was alright.

Clearly, the dozen or so takes had exhausted all of Da Tian Tian's energy, which is why she fell off the horse.

Fortunately, the ground was covered with sand, so falling on it wouldn't cause any injury.

"Sweetie, take a break and do another take. If you continue to perform poorly, I will immediately replace you," Cheng Sheng said as he walked over with a gloomy face.

Upon hearing this, Da Tiantian felt wronged. She was already injured, and instead of comforting her, Cheng Sheng, that scoundrel, wanted to replace her.

Everyone on set, from the crew to the actors, was stunned.

Change the actor!
This was the first time Director Cheng had brought it up.

Those who had worked with Cheng Sheng on his first film were even more shocked.

When filming "The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins", even if someone had to do a retake, Director Cheng never said anything as harsh as replacing the actor.

Moreover, many people know who Sweetie is!
That's the radiant princess, and the movie "Radiant Princess" also received investment.

With such a strong background, can it really be changed?

Anyone who knows Jing Tian's background knows that no one in the entire crew dares to mess with her.

Everyone assumed that Da Tiantian was Cheng Sheng's sugar daddy, and that even if Da Tiantian made a mistake, Cheng Sheng wouldn't say anything harsh.

But Director Cheng just announced that he would replace the actor.

In front of so many people, Director Cheng didn't give Da Tian Tian any face at all.

Look at how wronged Jing Tian looks, she's about to cry!

Looking at the stunned crowd around him, Cheng Sheng maintained his authoritative demeanor and said, "Take a half-hour break, then we'll film again."

Everyone scattered and went to find places to rest, since filming war scenes is really physically demanding.

Da Tiantian has already returned to the nanny van with the help of her assistant.

Perhaps because no one was around, Da Tian Tian finally burst into tears, feeling incredibly wronged, and said, "Damn Cheng Sheng, if you dare to change the actors, I'll have my parents change you too."

If Da Tiantian were to actually speak up, her parents could really pull it off and get Cheng Sheng, the chief director, removed from his position.

Of course, Da Tian Tian is just angry right now, and she's only saying it; she won't actually do it.

knock knock!

There was a knock on the door of the nanny van.

Thinking it was her assistant outside, Da Tiantian snapped, "Leave me alone, I want to be alone."

"Who is Jingjing? Can you tell me? I'll go find her for you."

But what came through was Cheng Sheng's voice.

Upon hearing that it was Cheng Sheng, Da Tiantian quickly wiped away her tears and stubbornly asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Sweetie, I'm here to bring you some ointment. You fell off the horse just now, you must be in pain," Cheng Sheng said gently.

Hearing this, Da Tiantian, who was initially angry, felt a warmth in her heart and thought to herself: This dog director still knows how to care about people.

"wait."

Da Tiantian looked in the mirror and saw that her makeup was ruined, so she immediately took out a tissue and wiped it off.

Two minutes later, the van opened, and Cheng Sheng got in, looking at Da Tian Tian and asking, "Did you cry?"

"I didn't cry!" Da Tian Tian pouted.

Cheng Sheng smiled slightly, his tear stains still visible, clearly indicating that he had been crying!
However, Cheng Sheng did not intend to continue this topic.

"This is a liniment I got from a martial arts master; it's very helpful for injuries from falls."

Cheng Sheng placed a box of ointment on the table and said.

"Hmph! Mind your own business." Da Tian Tian crossed her arms, showing no gratitude, but instead speaking arrogantly.

"Sorry, my tone was a bit harsh just now. Tian Tian, ​​you know there are so many people in the crew. If I don't maintain the director's authority, it will be very detrimental to the management of the crew," Cheng Sheng said.

"So you were making an example of someone to scare others." Upon hearing this, Da Tiantian immediately understood.

"Sweetie is indeed very clever. You understood everything as soon as I pointed it out." Cheng Sheng gave her a small compliment.
