Chapter 26 There's hope for life now!
Jiang Bai emptied the equipment out of his backpack.
White dress, wig.
Jiang Bai sat in front of the hotel mirror, took a deep breath, and began to transform.
This is the third time he has dressed as a woman.
As the saying goes, once you've tried it, you're new to it; twice you get used to it; and three times... well, you get a little addicted.
In addition, there's the muscle memory from master-level makeup skills.
Jiang Bai's technique was so skillful it was outrageous.
Base makeup, contouring, eyebrow shaping, eye makeup...
Every step was executed flawlessly.
Especially eye makeup.
To fit the period drama atmosphere of "Beauty's Rival in Palace," he deliberately drew his eyeliner slightly upturned, adding a touch of classical charm.
A dozen minutes later.
Jiang Bai looked at himself in the mirror.
silent.
"A charm rating of 9 points... isn't that a bit too much?"
The person in the mirror is no longer the simple, sweet school beauty she used to be.
Because of the subtle adjustments to his makeup, he now exuded an even more aloof and stunning beauty.
Her eyes sparkled with a captivating light!
That feeling of "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent" is absolutely amazing!
"With looks like that, you can't even be a supporting actor."
"If she were to play Daji, King Zhou would probably rip his heart out."
Jiang Bai nodded in satisfaction.
She changed into the white dress on the bed.
Although it's modern attire, that kind of vibe is universal.
If you have a pretty face, even wearing a burlap sack is fashionable!
Everything is ready.
Jiang Bai folded the men's clothes he had changed out of and stuffed them into his bag.
This is his backup plan!
In case anything unexpected happens during the audition, such as being required to undergo a physical examination, he can still find a chance to change back into men's clothing and run away!
Put on a mask and pull up your hat.
Jiang Bai took a deep breath and pushed open the door.
"Kyoto Film Studio..."
"I am coming!"
……
Kyoto Film Studio.
This is the largest dream factory on the entire planet Earth, and also the most chaotic point of intersection between time and space.
Under the blazing sun, dust filled the air.
As soon as Jiang Bai entered the core area, he felt as if he had accidentally wandered into a large cosplay convention or a party at a mental hospital!
On the left is a group of zombies dressed in Qing Dynasty official robes queuing to buy jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes), each of them swinging their braids wildly.
On the right, several Japanese soldiers with AK47s are squatting in the corner with the Eighth Route Army soldiers, smoking and chatting about whether their evening lunch will be braised pork or shredded potatoes.
Ahead of them was an emperor in a dragon robe, pedaling furiously on a shared bicycle, followed by several eunuchs panting and shouting, "Your Majesty, slow down!"
"This is fucking..."
"It's so surreal."
Jiang Bai lowered the brim of her hat, lifted her skirt, and carefully avoided a pickup truck towing a cannon.
Although his current outfit would definitely turn heads outside, it's actually the most normal thing to see here.
After all, this place is full of beautiful women and goddesses.
However, a problem arises.
This place is too big.
The crisscrossing streets are filled with various antique-style buildings, and there isn't even a single street sign.
"Studio 3..."
"Where is it?"
Jiang Bai circled around twice, looking at the identical red walls and green tiles all around him, and completely lost his way.
Navigation is completely unreliable here; the location is inconsistent.
"I need to ask someone."
Jiang Bai looked around.
Just then, I saw a burly man wearing a black vest, with a whistle around his neck and a walkie-talkie in his hand, walking hurriedly while wiping his sweat not far ahead.
Judging by his outfit, he's either a stagehand or a stuntman.
They must be familiar with the film studio.
"Um... Big brother?"
Jiang Bai walked over quickly and called out tentatively.
at this time.
Zhuang Han, the action director of a certain film crew, was furious.
The crew has been working non-stop for three days and three nights to meet the deadline.
The stuntman just twisted his ankle again. The director is cursing inside, and the producer is urging him on from outside.
As the action choreographer, he was caught in the middle, so busy that he didn't even have time to drink water.
"Who is it?! Don't bother me! Can't you see I'm busy?!"
Zhuang Han didn't even turn his head, his tone as sharp as if he'd been injected with gunpowder.
He was about to pull out his walkie-talkie and start yelling at someone.
suddenly.
A tingling, electric-like sound entered his ears.
"Big brother~"
Excuse me~
The voice was crisp and sweet, with a touch of just the right amount of apology and softness.
Like a glass of chilled plum juice in summer, it instantly extinguished half of the anger in his heart!
Zhuang Han subconsciously stopped and turned his head impatiently:
"What...?"
The second half of the sentence got stuck in my throat.
He saw someone.
A girl wearing a white dress, a mask, and a baseball cap.
Although the girl's face was not fully visible, her exposed eyes were breathtakingly beautiful!
Sunlight shone on her eyelashes, making them flutter.
With a glance, it's as if there's a vast ocean of stars!
Zhuang Han was a rough man who was used to seeing heavily made-up female stars on set.
But at the moment.
He felt as if something had struck his heart hard!
"Gulp."
He swallowed hard, his fierce expression instantly vanishing, replaced by a blank stare.
"Ah...ah?"
"You...you called me?"
Jiang Bai looked at his older brother, who had just looked fierce but now looked like a silly deer, and chuckled inwardly.
With 9 points of charm, she's truly irresistible.
He blinked and continued in that bone-melting, affected voice:
"Excuse me, sir, how do I get to Studio 3?"
"I'm lost~"
"Number 3...3?"
Zhuang Han's mind went blank, leaving only those captivating eyes before him.
His hand reacted faster than his brain, instinctively pointing in a direction:
"Go...go that way."
"After two intersections, you'll see a palace with big red lanterns hanging behind it; that's it."
"Thank you, brother, you're so kind."
Jiang Bai sweetly thanked her, and even bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
Then, lifting her skirt, she walked lightly in the direction he pointed.
Until Jiang Bai's figure disappeared around the corner.
Zhuang Han remained in that pointing-the-way posture, like a venerable waiting-for-husband stone.
A long time passed.
A roar came through the walkie-talkie: "Old Zhuang! Where the hell are you! Where are you?!"
Zhuang Han then suddenly came to his senses.
"Holy crap..."
He touched his chest; his heart was pounding like a drum.
"Who is this?"
"This is so beautiful!"
"Those eyes of hers are even more captivating than those of our second female lead, who's known as the 'millennial beauty'!"
"Could she be a new actress?"
Zhuang Han smacked his lips, feeling that the moment they had just locked eyes was something he could savor for half a year.
"There's hope in life now!"
He chuckled foolishly, forgetting even about being scolded, and happily went back to work.
