519 Chapter 519
Ever since the two of them had a secret fight the day before yesterday, Laura no longer bothered to pretend to be friendly in front of Jiang se. On set, she treated Jiang se as if she was air. Naturally, she would scold her behind her back. When her manager saw her expression, she nodded.
she doesn’t have many scenes. It’s her last scene. She has to leave after she’s done.
Laura noticed that Xia Chaoqun was chatting with the pyrotechnician. Since the film crew was mostly made up of Europeans and Americans, Jiang SE’s group was particularly eye-catching. Laura could recognize who was working for Jiang se at a glance.
The corners of her lips twitched into a sneer. She had received the script for today’s shoot last night and had also heard that Jiang SE’s last scene would be an important one. After accepting the script for ” God’s salvation “, Laura had read the script for ” the prisoner ” and knew the ending of Jiang SE’s character, Xilin. Now that she saw Xia Chaoqun communicating with the pyrotechnician, she could naturally guess what scene Jiang se was going to shoot.
She beckoned with her finger and the assistant beside her turned over. She bowed her head.
Her manager, Jack, clearly knew her character very well. When he saw her actions, he couldn’t help but frown and Pat her shoulder.
Laura, ” he interrupted Laura’s plan. He lowered his voice and said in a warning tone, ”
don’t mess around. You don’t like her. She’ll be leaving the crew in two days at most. You don’t have to cause trouble.
After saying that, he realized that his tone was a bit harsh and was afraid of arousing Laura’s dislike. He looked around, coughed, and lowered his head. While tidying her collar and hair, he softened his tone, ”
you’re the main lead, and she’s just a supporting character who won’t have many scenes in the movie. You just have to focus on filming ‘the salvation of God’. This movie is prepared by Chesare for the Angel Award, and he has been preparing for it for many years.
He paused for a moment and looked in Jiang SE’s direction. Mr. Smith went through a lot of trouble to get you this opportunity through personal friendship.
Jack was still trying to persuade her.
chessaray has a personal relationship with her. It is not wise to offend her, not to mention that this girl is not weak.
On the first day of their meeting, when Laura mocked her, she ridiculed her without any hesitation, causing Laura to lose a lot of face in front of everyone.
Jack could tell from this that Jiang se was definitely not a weak girl who would swallow her anger while working overseas. bear with it for two days. Don’t be willful. Be obedient, my good girl.
Laura smacked his hand away. don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.
It was precisely because Jiang se was not a coward that the two of them had a conflict. Laura could not forget what happened on the day of work. She pulled her assistant over and, despite her manager’s attempts to stop her, whispered into her ear and patted her on the shoulder.
“Do it beautifully.”
Jack frowned and the assistant walked away carefully.
Jiang se and Donald rehearsed for the next scene. The crew was already putting protective measures into place for her. Before she put on the heat-resistant clothes, Xia Chaoqun and Mo Anqi had already checked her protective measures to ensure that Jiang se would not get burned. After applying some fire-resistant oil, the makeup artist had already rediscovered the outer layer of her skin. Mo Anqi was even consoling Jiang se.
bear with it, we’ve already done the scene many times. Once the director calls for a stop, there will be an fire extinguisher immediately.
Therefore, the most difficult thing to do was to overcome one’s own psychological barrier.
Before this, Jiang se had rehearsed with Donald many times. She had already passed the stage with her facial and body language performances in front of chessaray. According to chessaray, the only thing missing was a fire that would take Shireen away. Then, Jiang SE’s scene would come to a perfect end.
It was almost seven o ‘clock in the evening when the makeup was done.
All the staff members were in their positions. Jiang se had already applied low-temperature burning oil on her body. She was waiting for the director’s order for the pyrotechnician to slowly set her body on fire.
Everyone was on high alert for this scene. The camera was aimed at Jiang se while Donald adjusted his facial expression in the dark. After the script supervisor hit the clapperboard, he quickly got into the zone.
Oh, Supreme priest, I’m willing to follow your instructions and receive your redemption, ”
After Andre coaxed Shireen into saying the incantation to communicate with the gods, he finally couldn’t hold back his inner greed and recited the incantation.
He needed a miracle to prove that his belief in the first half of his life was not a joke. In his heart, he also had the desire to soar to the sky. He wanted to leave this dilapidated church, become the Supreme Pope, control the church, become the representative of God in the human world, and realize the endless desires in his heart.
When Andre offered the defenseless Shireen as a sacrifice, the poor girl’s legs started to spark.
The flame quickly spread on her body, moving up from her waist.
The pyrotechnician controlled the timing and watched as the fire started burning on her body. Soon, it grew bigger. In Jiang SE’s character, Xilin, a pained expression appeared on her face as if she had not realized what had happened to her.
She just subconsciously smacked the flames on her body, but the flames were very fierce and quickly surrounded her body.
In reality, no matter how calm Jiang se was, she could not help but feel a little apprehensive. It was her first time experiencing such a situation. The feeling of the fire burning her body was not pleasant. Due to the protective measures, it did not cause much damage to her body.
However, what she had to overcome was the fear of the fire rapidly burning her upper body. Fortunately, Jiang se was mentally prepared for such a situation. Hence, she suppressed her panic. When she felt the flames crawl up her arms, chest, and back, she seized the moment and looked up at Andre as she had rehearsed earlier.
Andre, please, please, ” she muttered. She had wanted to ask for help from her companions, but when she heard Andre’s incantation, she instantly understood the situation.
“Are you, praying to God?
Her cry of surprise was not fake, because she realized that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it had already burned her back. She felt a burning sensation on the back of her neck, and the ends of her hair that hung down even smelled burning.
Jiang SE’s heart sank. This was not normal. Before the pyrotechnician started, he had clearly told her that she had taken very good protective measures during the shooting. It was impossible for her to feel this way.
Her back was protected by the asbestos protective suit, and her skin and leather armor were painted on. The low-temperature flames could not hurt her, but the skin around her neck was only coated with fire oil. However, it should not have felt like this.
A few thoughts flashed through Jiang SE’s mind, but she did not dare to express them. Chessaray had not stopped her yet. The crew had not only spent a huge sum of money and time to film this scene, but they had also spent a lot of film.
Once she stopped, all her preparations would be in vain, and everything she had done would be a waste. Even if there was a reason for it, it would still anger chessaray.
When she thought of this, Jiang se forcefully suppressed the panic in her heart. The flame was still a few seconds away from her neck, and her eyes looked as if they were about to burst into flames.
Jiang se was not just acting. There was something wrong with the fire oil. Xia Chaoqun and the others had checked the protective suit, the low-temperature burning oil, and even the fire extinguisher. However, they had missed the fire oil.
“What have you done?!” She shouted loudly. Her voice was sharp and sad, and it spread throughout the set.
At that moment, Jiang SE’s expression was contorted. Her face was flushed red, and anger was spreading from her face and limbs.
Donald, who was playing Andre, was not the only one who was startled by her angry shout. His body trembled slightly and then he lowered his head even more. Even many of the staff members who were close to her were surprised.
Shireen wanted to walk towards Andre, but the immense pain caused her straight back to bend. Her hands that were already covered in flames subconsciously wanted to hold her face, but the flames on her body burned even faster, almost drowning her in the sea of flames.
She was so smart that it was impossible for her to not realize that she had been betrayed by her trusted companion.
After she took a step forward, Andre instinctively retreated a little. He was still chanting, but the fire on Shireen’s body burned even faster. It had already spread to her shoulders and neck, as if the flames were going to devour her in an instant.
She didn’t die in the war against the heretics, nor did she die in the church mission that she swore to serve for the rest of her life. Instead, she died because of her companions ‘greed. To Shireen, this was no different from a great betrayal!
Andre didn’t dare to look her in the eye, and only increased the speed of his incantation.
Chessaray looked at Jiang SE’s face through the camera. She was about to be consumed by the flames, but she could not hide the anger on her face.
At this moment, Jiang se felt her neck and hair burning. Her face was also being roasted by the flames. The heat was unbearable.
In the script, she should have stepped forward angrily and reached out to grab Andre, but the next moment, she was surrounded by flames and turned into nothing, disappearing from this world.
In other words, she only needed to take one step forward and the scene that belonged to her would be completed.
She had already done it several times during the practice. As long as she pounced lightly, the fire extinguisher not far away would spray on her body.
However, at this moment, she was already feeling pain in her neck. The easy movements during the practice were now extremely difficult. There was no need to act out the painful expression at all, as it was truly displayed on her face.
The fire raised the temperature around her, and the smoke blocked her eyes. She could only vaguely see that the crew members holding fire extinguishers in the distance were already waiting for her.
She pounced at Donald like a headless fly, enduring the pain. Chessley waved his raised hand, and the sound of the fire extinguisher being turned on rang out. Jiang se was drowned in the dry powder, and the raging flames were immediately extinguished.
Jiang SE’s momentum did not falter. She fell to the ground due to inertia. The powder splattered all over her face. She closed her eyes and did not even dare to breathe.
It did not feel good after she was done with this scene. Every pore on her body was covered in the fire extinguishing powder. She coughed twice. The smell filled her mouth, throat, and chest. Jiang se retched a few times. Her heart, which had been tensed up, finally relaxed.
Amidst the rapid beating of his heart, chessaray’s voice carried a hint of praise.
Jiang, your performance was very good. The first few microexpressions were very interesting.
Xia Chaoqun, mo Anqi, and the others came over with wet towels that they had prepared earlier. The powder was still floating in the air when a hand reached out to Jiang se. Jiang se held back her cough as she held the hand and stood up.
After moving a little further away from the dust cloud, she saw that the person who had helped her up was Donald, the actor who played the male lead Andre in “God’s salvation.”
This top Italian male star was usually a man of few words. He was also rather cold. Jiang se had worked with him for a few days now, but she had barely spoken to him. She did not expect him to take the initiative to help her up.
thank you, Wanwan.
Her throat and mouth were almost covered in dust, and her throat was very uncomfortable when she spoke. When she opened her eyes, tears were about to flow out again.
Jiang SE’s current appearance was undoubtedly very disheveled. Donald smiled and nodded gently.
“You’ll feel better after you wash your face.”
Xia Chaoqun brought a handkerchief over. The handkerchief had just been wrung out of the hot water. Although the temperature had dropped a little due to the cold, when it touched Jiang SE’s face, it still caused her burning cheek to feel a sharp pain.
Jiang se grabbed her handkerchief and coughed forcefully. She endured the sharp pain and gently wiped the corners of her eyes and lips. Then, she took the water from mo Anqi to rinse her mouth. After a few times, she felt much better and could finally express her gratitude.
“There’s a problem with the fire oil.”
Her eyes were bloodshot. When she raised her head and said this, Xia Chaoqun’s expression tensed up and his eyes turned sharp.
In the distance, chessaray was still overjoyed by the success of the previous scene. He thought it was wonderful. Jiang se lowered her voice and washed her handkerchief with the hot water mo Anqi brought over. Then, she started to wipe her face.
At this moment, she looked extremely disheveled, her cheeks flushed red. Fortunately, she should not have suffered any serious injuries. However, her neck, chin, and other places were burning, and her hair was probably on fire.
Mo Anqi suppressed the shock in her heart and exchanged a look with Xia Chaoqun. When she heard Jiang SE’s words, she was shocked and reproached herself.
“I’ll find out.”
She should be more responsible in the preparation work before filming. She was Jiang SE’s only assistant at the moment, and she was also the one who took care of her daily life. She should check things like protective clothing, fire oil, and fire extinguishers carefully before filming in such a dangerous situation.
However, he didn’t expect that the protective suit, heatproof suit, and fire extinguisher would be fine, but an accident would happen in a small place like fire oil.
Fortunately, Jiang se did not panic. Instead, she stayed calm and endured the pain to finish filming the scene. Otherwise, if she panicked and something happened to the production crew, the staff would probably follow suit and cause more serious problems.
After removing her makeup, Jiang SE’s cheeks were fortunately not burned. However, her skin was still bright red and she needed to take good care of it.
What was more serious was her hair. Ever since her rebirth, she had been taking care of her long hair for the past few years. When she was filming, it had already grown to below her hips. Her hair was originally black like satin, smooth and thick. When it was burned by the fire, the ends of her hair appeared dry and fragile. It would break with a pinch and had a burnt smell. After trimming it, it would probably only be able to stay up to her waist.
Mo Anqi’s tears fell as soon as she saw her hair burning.
