Jiang se was able to communicate normally with the staff without the need for translation. This unexpected discovery surprised Michelle.
As the young man holding the work schedule turned around and made an ‘OK’ gesture, Michelle greeted mo Anqi first and then reported the situation to the company.
After communicating directly with the staff, her work efficiency increased significantly. After her makeup was done, Jiang se changed into the clothes she would be wearing for the commercial shoot.
In the past, they had shot various types of elegant or exquisite gowns for the advertisements. The advertising team of Elysees boldly overturned the past combination of luxury cars and exquisite beauties. Instead, they asked Jiang se to change into a dashing suit.
A White V-Shirt paired with a dark blue suit and stiletto of the same color as her short top. The simple suit complemented Jiang SE’s height and aura perfectly.
Unlike her usual elegant and delicate image, when she came out of the changing room, even her assistants could not help but cover their mouths and exclaim softly when they saw her.
Because of her style, the clothes and accessories were restricted, so the makeup artist put in a lot of effort on her makeup.
Her facial features were exquisite, and her eyes were covered with layers of eyeshadow, making them look deep and charming. Her eyes looked beautiful, handsome, but also charming.
Her fiery red lips were the finishing touch to her makeup. Mo Anqi put her hands in her pockets and smiled. Mo Anqi turned to her assistant, Chen Shan, and said, ”
“I always thought that sister Xia is one of the women who looks especially good in a suit.”
Xia Chaoqun’s figure was taller than the average woman’s. His legs were also long. He was a natural-born clothes hanger. Even a simple suit could be worn by him in a special way.
However, Jiang SE’s current western style did not lose out to Xia Chaoqun’s. Compared to Xia Chaoqun’s simple and androgynous style, Jiang SE’s western style with her makeup on gave her a valiant and feminine charm. When she looked over, her gaze was unusually calm, but it made one feel as if an electric current had passed through their body and their legs went weak.
Her straight and slender legs that were no less slender than a supermodel’s were wrapped in her suit pants. Her suit jacket was already buttoned up, and the fitting suit covered her thin waist. Mo Anqi’s eyes were glued to the combination of her imposing aura and graceful curves.
“What do you think?”
She asked, but Chen Shan did not answer.
To those who had changed from true fans to people who wanted to take good care of their idols, being Jiang SE’s assistant was already the greatest benefit. Perhaps, at this moment, being the first to see Jiang SE’s new work or style was the best thing they could do.
The team of stylists from the Elysees team were clearly impressed by the effects of their own designs. After they saw Jiang SE’s appearance and aura, they boldly came up with the initial idea of replacing formal attire with a suit.
Initially, he thought that if Jiang se lacked the necessary qualities, she could rely on post-production editing to achieve the effect that the Elysees company wanted.
However, when they saw Jiang se in person, the styling team realized that there was no need to retouch the photos. Her figure and aura were enough to make the suit stand out. She was even more stunning than they had expected.
Everything was ready. In the shooting process, the team was ready to shoot the outdoor scenes first, then enter the studio to shoot the interior.
The section of the road that Elysees had signed with the government would not be used for long. In this short video, Jiang SE’s leopard entering the commercial would take up four-fifths of the estimated video. This part was rather important.
The road outside had been cleared and the cameras were in position. From the way the advertisement was shot, one could tell how much importance the company Elysees placed on this advertisement. They had specially hired a famous director to shoot. The lineup was not inferior to a European or American film.
Under Rome’s clean and bright blue sky, in front of a unique-looking building, Elysees ‘car was already parked by the side of the road.
In just a short while, the outside was already filled with onlookers. Leopard’s car had attracted the attention of most of the onlookers. Under the sun, the leopard was dazzled by its beauty.
The director was a middle-aged man with a big beard from Italy. He was explaining to Jiang se the content of today’s shoot.
The content of today’s commercial shoot required her to express some sadness, anger, and unwillingness. get in the car after you come out from there.
The director briefly explained the filming process to Jiang se. She nodded.
When she was in Italy, she had already communicated with the company Elysees, the advertising planning team, the director, and other relevant parties about the plan for this advertisement. Jiang se also had a rough idea of the story’s content.
Before the filming officially started, both parties had rehearsed the scene. To put it simply, Jiang se had to walk out of the office building and get into the car.
During this period, she needed to suppress her emotions so that the audience could feel her emotions and not be indifferent.
This was not a difficult task for Jiang se. As an actress, it was natural for her to control her emotions. After communicating with the director and confirming that there were no other problems, the director gestured for everyone to get ready. The staff then returned to their positions. The moment Jiang se came out, the cameramen could begin work.
When the director shouted “action! , Jiang se walked out from the glass door of a building. The cameraman, who had been waiting outside the door, immediately aimed the camera at her.
She stood there for a moment, her eyes a little red. Under the camera, she was obviously swallowing, as if she was trying to hold back her tears. Her jaw was clenched tightly, and she looked into the distance.
Such a subtle action easily fulfilled the director’s request of making her sad and disappointed but not losing her composure.
Chen Shan was standing not far from the director. When he saw the director watching this scene from the monitor, he smiled with satisfaction.
She stood there for a moment, then strode down the stone steps. Her eyelids drooped, covering the tears in her eyes, but her steps were calm.
With this scene alone, even if there was no script and no need for a voice-over introduction, most people could tell that she had been wronged, which was why she had rushed out of the building.
If one’s imagination was a little more vivid, one could even guess her identity and job from her clothes and temperament. Perhaps she was a well-educated woman with extremely strong self-control. The sadness and helplessness she revealed at this time did not make her lose her composure, and it could be seen that her willpower was not weak.
Her stiletto heels made a crisp sound as she walked up the steps. The scene was romantic and charming, and this kind of scene that attracted the audience was clearly the feeling that the Elysees company needed.
After all, the duration of an advertisement was too short. Even with Elysees ‘powerful financial capabilities, the advertisement would only take two to three minutes at most after it was edited and put on the market. Most of the highlight was on the new car model that Elysees had just launched, the leopard. There was not much time left for Jiang se to showcase her skills.
If she wanted to combine the content of her story with leopard’s car, the effect of 1+1 would be far greater than 2. This was when her acting skills would come into play.
Although Jiang SE’s footsteps were calm, she was not slow at all. In five to six seconds, she had already taken more than ten steps. At this moment, the director raised his hand and shouted, ”
“OK?”She indicated that this part of the scene had been filmed.
Michelle stood behind the director. She had witnessed the entire scene of Jiang se walking out of the main entrance. She was very satisfied with Jiang SE’s performance.
However, when Michelle watched Jiang SE’s earlier performance through the director’s replay, she could not help but be impressed by the company’s outstanding judgment in selecting the candidates this time.
Jiang SE’s aura was very strong. The adjustments to her facial expressions and body language allowed her to easily control the entire scene. When she walked out of the building in the suit, it did not look out of place at all.
The feeling that the director wanted was integrated into her micro-expression. She looked at him with eyes that were full of desire to speak, her jaw clenched tightly, and her lines shrank quite beautifully. The pride of not admitting defeat seeped out from her body.
“It’s very good,”
The director was obviously satisfied with her compliment. He replayed it a few times to make sure that the first part was done. He was in a good mood and got the crew to prepare for the next part.
Jiang se also took a break for 15 minutes. The stylist and makeup artist helped her adjust her clothes, hair, and makeup. They carefully smoothed out the creases on her suit and pants. When they resumed filming for the second scene, Jiang se stood at the position where they had stopped filming earlier.
At this moment, cameraman number two aimed at the main entrance again. An elderly gentleman walked out of the building and saw Jiang se in front of him.
He raised his hand as if to stop Jiang se.
The person walking in front did not stop because of his summoning. Jiang se walked straight to leopard’s parking spot. When she was close to the car, she quickly unbuttoned her suit jacket, revealing her high-waisted, midriff-revealing top. In the camera, she looked cold and alluring. Leopard’s door opened like an eagle with its wings spread open, waiting for her to conquer it.
In front of different cameras, she had a completely different feeling from the old gentleman chasing after her. One represented youth, vitality, and unruliness, while the other represented the profoundness, elegance, and age accumulated over the years.
Michelle recalled the scene where Jiang se undid the buttons on her coat. She felt a strong sense of emotion. When she recalled how Jiang se undid her coat, her every action matched the ‘breakthrough’ that the eleases wanted when they launched the leopard.
Michelle felt that her eyes weren’t big enough. She was about to ask the director to replay the scene after this scene was shot, but the director frowned and hesitated for a while. He made a pause gesture, and this scene was cut.
“Is there anything that’s not ‘OK’?”
Seeing this scene, the crew was a little nervous. They had the same thought as Michelle, that the previous scene was already perfect. The director signaled for Camera 2 to replay. After a pause, he pointed at the man’s collar shirt in the shot.
“This place should be straight, and not a single wrinkle can be left.”
The men represented the ‘ultimate perfection’ concept of the Elysees, and there was no room for any mistakes. This part was ready to be refilmed, but before Michelle could say anything, her phone vibrated.
Michelle picked up the phone and wanted to walk to a corner, but before she could even take a step, she could not help but exclaim, ”
“What? Mr. Garo is already here?”
As soon as she finished speaking, the staff who heard her were all shocked.
The company had received the news of Garo’s arrival yesterday, but the executive had just arrived in Italy, and there was no need to go to the scene to watch the commercial shoot on the trip back to the company.
Michelle hung up the phone with a serious expression.
Garo had rushed to the scene as soon as he arrived in Rome. It was clear that he placed great importance on the shooting of this advertisement.
After all, with the rise of the Chinese market in the past few years, it had already reached a level that was enough for the headquarters of the company Elysees to pay attention to. The addition of a spokesperson this time caused the reputation of Elysees to be in danger of slipping in China. He had no choice but to pay attention to it.
Garo is almost here. The company just received a call from his assistant. After he got off the plane, he didn’t return to the hotel but took the company car to the scene.
The company’s people also rushed over after hearing the news. Michelle calmed herself down and passed down the news of Garo’s arrival so that the staff would be more careful when filming.
Garo arrived very quickly. When he arrived, Jiang se was in the midst of a retake for the second scene. The staff from the company had not arrived yet. His arrival caused a commotion. The camera swayed for a moment. As a director who pursued perfection in details, this was naturally intolerable. There was another ‘NG’ for this scene.
The person in charge of the company saw this scene as soon as he arrived, and Michelle’s heart skipped a beat. Garo had brought three assistants, and someone had already prepared a chair for him. The director spoke to him in English about the previous shooting.
He was about 50 years old, and his dark golden hair was already a little gray. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked gentlemanly, but he managed to control the situation as soon as he arrived.
After understanding the shooting process and briefly listening to Michelle’s report on the shooting in the past few days, he pushed the frame up. When the director repeated the scenes that had been shot successfully for him, the executive’s tense face relaxed a lot.
The charming Chinese beauty in the shot combined minimalism and gracefulness perfectly. It was a short scene, but it easily caught people’s eyes.
She was tall and charming, and her suit exuded her unique charm. At least from the first video, the shooting of leopard’s commercial was going quite well.
When Jiang se walked over in her high heels, mo Anqi was explaining the reason for the temporary pause in filming.
Jiang se had already learned about Garo a few days ago. She came over to greet him. The advertisement had not been released yet. At the moment, she could not see the response from Jiang SE’s endorsement of the leopard series. Therefore, Garo’s attitude was gentle and a little distant. He was not friendly at all.
This was a good start. Jiang se knew very well that for Garo, intimacy and respect were built on the substantial benefits that she would gain from endorsing Elysees. If the advertisement that Elysees shot for her was released and the market response was not good, it might be difficult for her to earn a genuine smile from the CEO of Elysees in the future with her own abilities.
