So those awesome backdrops were all special effects, it was actually just an empty green screen on the set? It felt so fake!

For a moment, Liang Yin was so focused on looking at the props on the set that she completely forgot about her lines.

When the director raised his loudspeaker and shouted for everyone to get ready, she became even more nervous.

She herself hadn’t realized it yet, but Hua Jin could tell she was shaking violently.

“What’s the matter?” The actor studied her, frowning. “Don’t tell me… you’re nervous.”

Liang Yin gulped and admitted openly, “Yes, a little…”

“I see you’re shaking badly.” He patted her on the shoulder and rubbed her stiff arms. “When filming starts, get into position like I told you. See the two cameras there?”

“Yes… I see them!”

“That’s position A. That’s position B.”

“Oh! Understood.” Liang Yin’s voice was still trembling.

The actor had expected her to be nervous, so he guided her. “Let me teach you a method.”

“What method?”

“Be it the director, the staff, the videographers, or the actors waiting for their turns, just treat them like dwarves.”

“Pfft, that’s hard to imagine!”

“Actually, there’s not much difference between the set and when I went over the script with you in the room. Just immerse yourself and it will be fine!” It was a rare moment that the actor praised her. “Actually, you’re very good at acting. Once you get into character, I’m sure there’ll be no issues.”

“It’s not the same.”

“What’s different?”

“See, there were just the two of us in the hotel room, right?”

The actor nodded.

“But there are so many people here!”

At a glance, there were at least dozens of people, including the director, staff, and actors waiting for their turns!

So many people were watching her act…

How could she not be nervous!?

The actor broke out in a cold sweat. “That’s why I asked you to imagine them as dwarfs.”

“I really can’t imagine it.”

“…”

“Oh no, oh no!” Liang Yin was a little fidgety. “We’re about to start. What if I mess up? The director looks really fierce. He doesn’t even smile and it feels like he eats people alive…”

“Don’t be nervous. The more you let your imagination run wild, the less you can get into the role. Now, just follow my thoughts…”

The actor coaxed her gently. “Relax. Take a deep breath. Take a cold breath.”

“Exhale…”

“Inhale again…”

“Exhale…”

“Okay, relax slowly and let all the breath out of your abdominal cavity…”

“Exhale…”

“Release the air slowly…”

“…”

The actor asked expectantly, “Did you relax a little?”

Liang Yin looked like she was on the verge of tears. “What should we do? I’m even more nervous now!?”

Before the actor could counsel her further, the log keeper arrived. “Master Jin, the director is hurrying you.”

Liang Yin shot the actor a pleading look. “What do we do? What do we do?!”

The actor’s head throbbed. “What’s there to be nervous about? The machines are dead. The staff will treat them like they’re winter melons. If you act well, are you worried that the director will scold you? The most important thing about acting is the mentality. If you act well, you’ll be fine. Your acting isn’t that bad. Even if you screw up and get an NG, you still have a chance to start over. It’s not like it’s live!”
