Caught in Affairs with Superstar-Chapter 150 - 130: The Beginning of the Scandal

In the afternoon shoot, Xu Siyao had scenes with Yu Yhan.

Recently, Yu Yhan’s performance suddenly improved, feeling completely different from before.

Contrarily, Xu Siyao’s acting was much better than Zhou Yun had imagined.

Xu Siyao and Zhou Yun don’t have the same type of facial features. Zhou Yun has a narrower face, and sporting a clean-shaven head highlights her face’s advantages best—her features are well-defined and delicate, with a pair of sharp eyes adding a heroic touch to her otherwise beautiful appearance.

Xu Siyao’s face is bigger than Zhou Yun’s, not just bigger, though her features are also beautiful, they appear more radiant. Radiance isn’t bad for a female celebrity; the grander the occasion, the more lavishly one dresses, the more it enhances the visual impact of outshining others. However, this has a critical downside: such faces naturally leave little room for imagination, as they first catch the eye with their brilliance, making their image easily stereotyped.

Of course, both are far from being hindered by their images.

However, everyone sees differently through the camera lens, everyone has their thoughts.

People know it too, Xu Siyao and Zhou Yun usually appear on camera, after shooting a few scenes.

Through the lens, Zhou Yun’s face just seems more pleasant than Xu Siyao’s.

This is an unsolvable issue engraved in their genes; some people can manage a slight twist through acquired demeanor, but evidently, Xu Siyao lacks this trait.

Xu Siyao was very displeased, feeling that standing next to Zhou Yun made her look like a major villain.

She blamed it all on the stylist and makeup artist.

"What a lousy style!" Xu Siyao cursed as soon as she entered her resting room.

The assistant kept quiet, thinking to themselves that initially, this style was minutely tailored by the stylist according to Xu Siyao’s demands.

Seeking brilliance, seeking to outshine.

Reality showed that in a film or TV drama, unless it fits the theme perfectly, a too outrageous style merely makes one look like a show-off rooster.

Xu Siyao thought for a while, feeling she must quickly learn from this lesson and put more effort into her styling.

She couldn’t continue filming like this; otherwise, when it aired, no amount of sponsored articles she bought would help.

Xu Siyao found the executive producer, Huang Zhong.

"President Huang." Xu Siyao got straight to the point, a look of aggrieved innocence on her face as she called out.

Seeing Xu Siyao like this, Huang Zhong asked, "What’s wrong? Is someone bullying you in the crew?"

"No, everyone is quite nice to me, it’s just a personal issue. I look so hateful in the camera," Xu Siyao pouted, "When it airs, the audience will curse me."

"Why would they? Your character’s design is quite good, a spoiled but very warm-hearted young lady; this kind of character is really popular in the film and TV world nowadays," Huang Zhong said.

Xu Siyao said, "Not at all, did you see the rough cut? I feel like I’ve been portrayed as a villain."

Xu Siyao spoke, and her eyes even started to turn red, looking truly aggrieved.

"Before joining the crew, no one told me it would be shot this way."

"And my style is too showy, who dresses like this in real life? Dressed up like a peacock."

She had completely forgotten that she had personally picked the costumes for her character initially.

Left with no choice, Huang Zhong went to look at the rough cut.

After checking, he realized the result was no surprise why Xu Siyao came to him to complain.

Because so far the scenes shot were mainly with the male and female leads, whenever Xu Siyao appeared in the same frame as Locust Village or Zhou Yun, a certain tackiness was contrasted out.

That character of a spoiled but warm-hearted young lady indeed has become popular among viewers in recent years, but only because many are fed up with saintly yet troublesome female leads, leading to a shift in aesthetic preferences.

The female lead played by Zhou Yun is inherently very positive and optimistic, but she acts spoiled and coquettish in front of the male lead; meanwhile, the male lead played by Gu Huaichun, under a uniformly aloof persona, adds a lot of detail, such as more complex expressions in front of Zhou Yun, creating a "world of two" effect that they hadn’t anticipated—one that makes it seem like others can’t blend into their world. Unfortunately, Xu Siyao’s character in the early stages revolves around Gu Huaichun, liking him but unrequited.
