Chapter 133: Chapter 133 Entertainment Circleâs Best Actress VS Lucky Newcomer (Part 18)
âDivinityâ tells the story of the primal age when the Human Race, Demon Clan, Monster Race, and Divine Clan fought continuously for fate and resources, leading to widespread death and devastation.
It was a time of turbulent changes, where everyone possessed strong spiritual power. The unrestrained slaughter enraged the laws of the universe, even prompting the Heavenly Dao to send down divine punishments as warnings.
However, the frenzied races, blinded by killing, could not stop, and if they continued, they were afraid that each race would vanish under the punishments of the Heavenly Dao.
In the end, the Divine Clanâs queen, Shen Yin, used the Astrolabe Compass, a treasure passed down by the Divine Clan for ten thousand years, as a catalyst and sacrificed herself to cast a curse technique.
She dissipated the spiritual power of the Human Race, stripped the Monster Race of their intelligence, banished the Demon Clan to the other side of the Endless Abyss, and the Divine Clan forever lost their right to set foot on this continent againâthey built beautiful cities above the ninth heaven, but could only gaze down wistfully at their homeland.
Gu Shengyin, in this film, plays the role of the Divine Clanâs queen, Shen Yin.
...
And Ming Shujia, she plays the role of the Divine Artifact held by Shen Yinâthe Artifact Spirit of the Astrolabe Compass.
The Astrolabe Compass, as a Divine Artifact that had developed its own consciousness, was proud yet naive, and across the entire continent, it only obeyed the orders of its masterâthe Divine Clanâs queen, Shen Yin.
Actually, this role isnât easy to play. Director Li originally wanted to find a well-known actress with good acting skills to take on the role, but since Ming Shujiaâs sponsor made a significant investment in the production, he agreed to let her play the part.
However, if Ming Shujiaâs acting was truly bad, Director Li wouldnât mind changing the actress again.
The entire morningâs filming went quite smoothly, and after everyone had lunch on set and rested for a while, they began to shoot again.
Ming Shujia was somewhat nervous, as she had a scene with the queen involving the Astrolabe Compass in the afternoon.
âXingxing, have you been teasing the tribespeople again?â Gu Shengyin looked regal as she spoke with a tone of reprimand, yet there was a faint hint of⊠indulgence⊠as she looked at the Astrolabe Spirit.
âThose guys are all so timidâŠâ Ming Shujia suddenly got stuck on her lines; although she remembered the script clearly, and the scene wasnât difficult, for some reason, under Gu Shengyinâs faint gaze, she just couldnât speak.
âCut! Letâs do it again!â
Director Li frowned as he looked at Ming Shujia but didnât say anything.
âThey all know youâre the Artifact Spirit of a Divine Artifact, and theyâre deliberately making things easier for you. You, being thousands of years old, how can you still be so mischievous?â
Ming Shujia subconsciously started speaking, âHmph! Who needs them to make things easier for me? If I⊠if I make a move, they would all⊠all fall down.â
âCut!â
âMing Shujia, where is your emotion? I didnât ask you to recite the lines dryly, you are acting, and your expression is making me feel like youâre reading from a textbook,â Director Li was somewhat angry, this scene really didnât require much acting skill, and if Ming Shujia couldnât even get through this, then there was no point in talking about the more challenging parts ahead.
It isnât like this, it shouldnât be like this.
Ming Shujia was confused. She knew her abilities werenât limited to this, for she had repeatedly practiced countless times in front of a mirror at home, and there was no question of forgetting her lines or having a mental blank.
âIâm sorry, Director Li, Iâll pay attention,â she apologized sincerely to Director Li, then turned to Gu Shengyin with a remorseful smile, âSister Keyi, Iâve troubled you.â
Gu Shengyin smiled without minding, âJust prepare yourself properly, donât be anxious.â
Ming Shujia took a deep breath and finally got through the scene.
She subconsciously looked over at Gu Shengyin, who simply smiled back at her.
