The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 293

Including Lan Tianyou, Hua Bi and all the actors, they felt an inexplicable aura in an instant.

They looked up and saw a touch of awe flash through the eyes of Nan Xiangwan, who played the role of Red Eagle.

Under the inexplicable pressure, the actors were forced into character. Sitting down one by one, the scene fell silent.

It was as if they were really the military officers of this legion, taking orders from Major General Red Eagle!

She didn't need to explode in anger or yell, just an examining gaze was enough to make people feel the terror and pressure.

Was this the subconscious fear that came from serving under her for a long time?

At this moment, many actors began to doubt themselves, completely immersed in character!

Just then, the camera panned to the corner of the conference room.

Gu Beihuai's military uniform was worn improperly, the jacket wasn't buttoned up and was casually draped over his shoulders. The shirt collar's top two buttons were also undone, revealing his clavicle and faint pectoral muscles.

He was casually leaning against a corner of the conference room, arms crossed, eyes playfully watching everyone.

Gu Beihuai played the role of the legion's chief of staff, named Wu Xing.

With one shot, the playful personality of Chief of Staff Wu Xing was highlighted.

Major General Red Eagle glanced expressionlessly at the corner of the conference room, her eyes scanning over Wu Xing for a second before returning to look at everyone at the table.

The camera perfectly captured this detail!

Leng Kaiji watched the screen with bated breath, the other staff didn't even dare breathe loudly.

Who knows how nervous they were!

Originally, they estimated it would take over a dozen takes for this scene to pass.

But as soon as it started, everyone instantly got into character, each performing remarkably.

Especially Nan Xiangwan, she was amazing.

How could this commanding aura of a female general come so naturally?

Just the opening actions and gaze hit the mark!

At this time, those who originally had other interpretations for the federal female general completely changed their minds.

They were the ones who were wrong, Nan Xiangwan's portrayal was spot on!

There was no better way to demonstrate the general's prestige without needing to show anger or overact.

Baring fangs or shooting daggers with the eyes?

No!

She was a Federation Major General who had been waging interstellar war for years, always prepared to face any hardship even death.

How could she explode with rage just because of a spy?

A Major General should have the bearing and methods befitting her status!

With the most value-demonstrating opening shot done perfectly in over a dozen seconds, next came the dialogue.

Lan Tianyou played Colonel Yin Zun, also a fierce general under Red Eagle and her right hand man.

Yin Zun sat upright in the seat below, expression solemn and serious, his military uniform impeccable.

His first line was directed at Gu Beihuai's portrayal of Wu Xing!

Yin Zun: "Chief of Staff, I hope you can take this meeting seriously. Losing a destroyer is no trivial matter."

Wu Xing shrugged and walked over casually, still wearing that nonchalant expression.

Squeak!

He forcefully pulled out the chair, making an ear-piercing friction sound and sat down uncouthly.

At this point, except for Major General Red Eagle, all ten military officers in the conference room frowned at this roguish Chief of Staff, obviously having put up with him for a long time.

But Major General Red Eagle didn't even glance at him or show any other expression.

Hua Bi portrayed Red Eagle's adjutant, Li Bai. She presented an investigation report.

Li Bai: "Commander, here are the usage records for each battleship, including repairs."

Red Eagle lowered her eyes and quickly flipped through.

Instantly, the only sound in the conference room was her flipping through the papers.

Dozens of eyes watched Red Eagle. In the absolute silence, the sound of pages turning seemed louder, further elevating Red Eagle's commanding presence.

No one dared speak while she read the report!

Behind the camera, Leng Kaiji almost applauded.

Damn!

The acting was too good!

Especially the imposing manner without needing any dialogue, it was amazing!

After Red Eagle finished reading, she raised her head, the corner of her mouth hooked up slightly in a scornful smile.

With that smile, all the officers watching her became nervous internally and waited for her to speak.

But Red Eagle didn't say anything. She tilted her head slightly to look at Wu Xing, who was still sitting improperly next to her.

Gu Beihuai portrayed the character Wu Xing deeply and uniquely. Among all the properly seated military officers, only he was different and not afraid of Major General Red Eagle.

Wu Xing shrugged. "Well, I did use it, but I returned it. Who knows why there's no record."

He explained nonchalantly with a 'what can you do to me' meaning.

Slap!

Lan Tianyou as Yin Zun slammed the table and shot up angrily.

Yin Zun: "Chief of Staff Wu! I warn you, this is very serious. If you continue being so casual about it, you are disrespecting the entire Federation legion!"

His angry roar made many of the staff secretly applaud.

Yes, very good!

The scolded Wu Xing raised his eyebrows and laughed. "Whether I respect the legion or not isn't shown through behavior or posture."

He then gave a wicked smile, pointing to his heart.

Wu Xing: "It's from the heart."

From beginning to end, Gu Beihuai's portrayal of Wu Xing didn't get up from the chair at all, still sitting improperly much to others' dissatisfaction.

Yin Zun was so angry that his face turned ashen. The corner of his mouth turned down and his jaw tightened as he gnashed his teeth.

Yin Zun: "That destroyer was taken out by you! It contained important combat records of our legion. Who exactly did you give it to? Who are you working for now! I have reason to suspect you of betraying the Federation!"

Wu Xing rolled his eyes. "I have nothing more to tell you."

Yin Zun: "You!"

The argument between them was intense, or rather it was Lan Tianyou's portrayal of Yin Zun that was intense. Gu Beihuai's Wu Xing didn't even want to argue.

Knock knock!

Major General Red Eagle knocked on the table again with the back of her hand.

Swish!

Everyone immediately regained their original postures and looked towards her.

Yin Zun also sat back down and took a deep breath.

Red Eagle looked around at everyone and said, "Colonel Yin Zun stays. Everyone else, dismissed!"

"Yes!"

"Yes, Commander!"

The military officers left the conference room one by one, full of vigor.

Only Gu Beihuai's portrayal of Wu Xing smiled lightly. Still wearing that casual jacket, he grinned at the two of them and made a playful salute gesture.

Wu Xing: "Bye bye!"

This rascal attitude angered Yin Zun again.

Yin Zun glared fiercely at Wu Xing as he left. Then he turned to Red Eagle angrily, "Commander! People like him shouldn't stay here! He's like a malignant tumor! His betrayal is so obvious. Why doesn't the Commander do anything about him!"
