Chapter 92: Popsicle (2)

Translator: Sissy That Walk

Di Qiuhe laughed and stepped back from his hit. He then moved his jaw away from him and flipped his hair, saying, “The dresser said my skin is in good condition so it looks weird with foundation. Therefore, he only applied some concealer on my face, no foundation at all.”

“How thick-skinned you are! Don’t you blush to say that?” He Bai couldn’t take snaps for Dong Ni because of his interruption, so he just put down the camera and turned over to look at him. He then looked around that surreal filming site and came up with an idea. He pointed at a phone booth by the street and raised his chin to him, “Go stand there and lean on it. Oh, by the way, does Cheng Jun, the character you play smoke?”

“Yes.” Di Qiuhe guessed his intention and walked there on his command and looked at him with smiles, “But I don’t have one with me.”

“Be serious!” He Bai asked for one cigarette from a passing-by staff and put it into his mouth. He then took a few steps back to adjust for better light and angle and said while checking the camera, “You are Cheng Jun instead of Di Qiuhe now. Stay in character.”

Di Qiuhe bowed and giggled and then raised his head, hiding all his smile and slightly frowning his eyebrows. As he still kept the instinct of a soldier, his back was still quite straight even if he’s leaning on the phone booth. However, since he needed to cover as a drug dealer who did all the nasty things, he pretended to look cruel and vicious by biting a cigarette in his mouth.

Yes, biting, not holding. And there you saw how cruel and vicious he was.

A total stranger with exactly the face of Di Qiuhe showed up in the camera.

He Bai couldn’t help holding his breath. He soon changed his mind of taking a few random pictures and got serious and tried to adjust the angle more carefully.

“Cheng Jun.” He asked all of a sudden.

“Yes?” The man who was biting on a cigarette looked over. His deep eyes were full of mysterious emotions.

“Will you come back alive?”

The man was struck and made a careless smile and said in a low voice, “Who knows.”

“Be alive.”

The man looked over again without smiling.

“Come back alive.”

The man moved his eyes and took off his cigarette. He stayed silent for a long while and nodded, “Okay.”

Click.

Then it came to the applause.

Both He Bai and Di Qiuhe were struck. One dropped his camera and the other was over the acting mode quickly. Then they looked to where the sound came from together.

Jiang Guanshan put down his hand and walked to them with the script. He looked at He Bai and asked, “Did you read the script?”

He Bai nodded and replied with a bit uncertainty, “Yes. My master showed me a part of it and I also looked through Qiuhe’s script. Is it forbidden? Just relax director Jiang, I won’t speak out a word about it.”

“Don’t be nervous.” Jiang Guanshan smiled and asked for his camera to check on those photos he just took. Then he nodded and said benignly, “You just had quite a good feeling about those lines with Qiuhe. I would have given this role to you if you weren’t talking the main actress’s lines.”

He Bai waved his hand hastily and said humbly that it was too flattering, and he was just doing that on a random impulse with Qiuhe, and...

Di Qiuhe had a thought and looked at He Bai then put his hand on his shoulder, saying ambiguously, “Relax my heroine, I will come back alive to you no matter what. I love you so much after all.”

He Bai’s eyebrows cramped and he pushed him away then threatened him by waving his fist. What a naughty piece of junk!

Di Qiuhe sneered and raised his eyebrows. He knew he could never beat him up and he would surrender on purpose, so he was just being provocative like a child.

He Bai really wanted to punch him.

“You two are really close to each other.” Jiang Guanshan stopped an upcoming domestic violence just on time. He smiled and returned the camera to He Bai, saying, “Now I seem to understand why old Xu insisted on having you on his own instead of giving you to someone else. He, do you want to join the crew and help me shoot the poster and promotion pictures for this film?”

He Bai’s mouth was wide open and his hand was shaking that he almost fell the camera off. Di Qiuhe caught it immediately and seized that chance to touch his hand.

“Di...director Jiang, so, so you mean you want me to...to...” That was too big a surprise for He Bai that he couldn’t help stuttering.

That was a film poster! A film poster for a director Jiang film!

A director Jiang film would definitely be shown abroad as he was an international-awarded director. And the film would definitely go for the award competition. By then the poster and promotion pictures of this film would appear in every cinema home and abroad. Also they would be seen and studied by those judges of major awards.

What did that mean? That meant that if he shot the post of this film successfully, his name would appear in front of the eyes of the audience here and abroad, also those top practitioners in the film industry!

Mostly, if he shot the poster successfully, his position as a photographer in the entertainment industry would be leveled up a lot!

From shooting clothes to the album cover, and then to the shooting of film poster, he was walking in a totally different way than before. And that meant he had an unlimited future in his career! The scope of his choice of work had expanded to more fields that he could choose which work to do instead of the other way around!

The prerequisite for all of those was to shoot the film poster for director Jiang’s film successfully!

“Yes, it is.” Jiang Guanshan was amused by his reaction and said, “Didn’t your master tell you? Your assignment for this time was a test. If you can have a nice work that satisfies him and me, then you can shoot the poster for this film. But, if anyone of us is not satisfied, then you need to practice longer. And we will let you try again after a few months when the film is about to be finished. I just saw your pictures, they were great. I think your master must feel the same, so you have passed the test and got the poster shooting.”

He Bai would have never thought that there was another meaning in his shooting assignment for this time. He was surprised and thrilled by the trust of his master.

He recalled that the master told him to study about posters when he was just starting to learn group photograph. Now he suddenly understood and felt so touched and grateful that he almost said yes to this offer right away. But he also thought about his study and the job at Yi Ka, so he restrained and said embarrassed, “Director Jiang, thank you for giving me this opportunity, and I’d love to shoot the film poster. But about joining the crew, I...”
