I am popular in the entertainment circle

Chapter 5 I’ve already put on makeup

The girl chuckled and pursed her lips,

"Then you can make one and show it to me first."

Being interrupted by Meng Ran, her panic suddenly decreased a lot.

Meng Ran had already changed into ancient clothes, but she had already planned it, so she naturally made preparations in advance. The material of the maid's clothes was far inferior to that of the leading actor, and even if she folded it over and over, it would not leave any traces.

Moreover, the maid's sleeves were not wide like the hostess's, and Meng Ran's makeup skills were specialized, which did not hinder the neat movements of her hands at all.

She didn't grab those complicated ones, she directly picked one with a template, looked at the template for two seconds, and then quickly applied her makeup.

The girl's eyes flashed with wonder.

It is said that an expert can tell if something is wrong as soon as he takes action. Meng Ranlu’s previous action has already let girls know that Meng Ran’s makeup skills are definitely not bad.

After all, if the foundation is not applied well, it will be very obvious, and not everyone can make the skin white and translucent.

But when Meng Ran showed off her makeup in full, the girl realized that she still underestimated the other person, and she couldn't help but feel a flash of joy in her heart: Fortunately, this person is an actor, otherwise how could she win over him for the job?

The girl admired such a strong person in her own field. After Meng Ran helped her put on three extras, she said,

"Xiao Meng, you are going to film at half past eight. Now you should paint for yourself first."

Meng Ran smiled brightly and did not refuse. He only said,

"Then if I still have time after I finish painting, I will help you with the work."

After saying that, he walked to the mirror. The maid who was sitting there quickly stood up.

"Sister Meng, it's inconvenient to draw while standing, so you can sit down."

Meng Ran was taken aback for a moment. Looking at the flattering look in the other person's eyes, he suddenly realized that she might also want him to help with makeup.

After all, the other party may not understand the terminology of the makeup industry or understand the process, but it is too obvious whether it looks good or not.

Sure enough, people still need to master a technology.

Meng Ran spent a quarter of an hour painting it for himself, and then continued to help the girl.

…

At ten minutes past eight, Zhang Meili finished the makeup on her hands, started packing her makeup tools, and said,

"Xiao Meng, it's your turn to put on makeup."

As a result, no one answered at all in the dressing room. Zhang Meili's face showed a bit of impatience, "Xiao Meng!"

She raised her head and looked at where Meng Ran was sitting before, but there was another person sitting there. She was startled and looked around suddenly, but it turned out that Meng Ran was not there at all.

Wu Yan next to her whispered,

"Sister Zhang, Meng Ran left the dressing room and never came back."

Zhang Meili's eyes were full of anger and she screamed,

"She's a female co-star who's not waiting in the dressing room to put on her makeup. Where did she go? Doesn't this delay the entire crew? Go and find her quickly!"

Wu Yan said softly,

"But Sister Zhang, I don't have her contact information."

"Didn't you and her chat for so long?"

Zhang Meili's fingers touched Wu Yan's face, almost poking her eyes.

Wu Yan's eyes flashed with grievance and she lowered her head.

Zhang Meili roared and cursed again, but in the midst of this venting, she gradually calmed down. Her face was filled with anger, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised.

"You're so ignorant. All the extras on the right and left have already put on their makeup. I'm going to find her."

After saying that, she walked out of the dressing room and slammed the door.

There was an extra in the dressing room who couldn't help but say,

"Didn't she cause this herself? I remember that Meng Ran came here very early, and people reminded her several times to ask when she would put on makeup, but she got impatient and drove them away. Now she still has the face to get angry?"

The person next to him pulled him.

"Stop talking."

Their small group performance doesn't have as much weight as the makeup artists who work with the crew.

Wu Yan's eyes flashed and she suddenly said,

"I heard that Sister Zhang's master is a senior makeup artist and is very kind to her. That's why Sister Zhang, a junior makeup artist, can join Director Qin's crew."

Suddenly, the somewhat dissatisfied discussion disappeared.

They are all extras. There is not even a supporting role in this dressing room, so how can they compare with senior makeup artists?

Although you won't be banned if you offend the other party, Director Liang is the senior makeup artist who will give you three points. If you say hello to the major crews, then they may only be able to act in this kind of background without lines for the rest of their lives.

The entertainment industry is a place that pays the most attention to connections and influence.

Seeing everyone fell silent, Wu Yan showed a proud smile.

She also plays the second female lead's maid. If Meng Ran doesn't put on makeup in time, will the crew just ask her to do it?

Although they are both maids, Meng Ran's role is much higher than hers.

More importantly, in the play, the character Meng Ran and the second female lead are set up to have a sisterly relationship. The two of them were inseparable in the early stages and would appear together on many occasions, so that one could borrow the light of the second female lead.

I don’t know why Zhang Meili targeted Meng Ran, but this is obviously her opportunity.

On the other side, Zhang Meili left the dressing room, but had no intention of looking for Meng Ran.

She just pretended to be anxious and panicked, and walked around the set. When the time went by at 8:20, Zhang Meili finally came to the work group, Aite Mengran, and severely criticized her for not arriving for so long that she couldn't find her.

The arrival of someone delayed the makeup time.

Makeup was due at 8:30, but now there was only ten minutes left and it was too late.

As soon as the group message was sent out, Director Zhang was finally exposed. He angrily dialed Meng Ran’s cell phone.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Director Zhang, listen to me, my makeup has been done."

Director Zhang's anger suddenly stopped, as long as he didn't delay his work. After calming down, he noticed something strange.

"What happened?"

Meng Ran explained the matter clearly and with some grievance.

"I don't know why Sister Zhang is targeting me? Seeing that the makeup handover time is coming, I am worried that the makeup has not been done yet, or that the makeup is not perfect, which will affect the quality of the crew and delay the time of other staff, so I

I asked Sister Xing Yujia Xing to do my makeup before I put on my makeup."

Xing Yujia is exactly that girl.

Director Zhang already understood the reason.

Zhang Meili recommended her niece for the role of Qiu Yue because he was the one who handled it and she was very impressed.

He had sold her a favor before and recommended her to Assistant Director Liang. It was her ability that allowed her to gain Assistant Director Liang's approval. But in the end, the role was taken by Meng Ran. No wonder Zhang Meili would target her.

But being able to understand logically doesn't mean he can forgive.

Director Qin's crew is most taboo about using public tools for personal use.

Old people who have been with Director Qin for a long time know that he will not care about the intrigues of the crew, but if the intrigues affect the operation of the crew, then he will never show any mercy.

"Okay, I understand this. Your makeup will be done in the dressing room No. 1."

"Then can I post a photo of myself in makeup in the group to avoid misunderstanding among the leaders?"

Meng Ran's voice was filled with the unique uneasiness of a newcomer. She said that the leaders acted as if this was the new company she had joined. Director Zhang's remaining soft-heartedness was immediately aroused, thinking that the other party had just entered the entertainment industry.

He suggested,

"Okay, Director Qin only cares about the results and doesn't care about the process."
