629 Not Too Good-Looking
Song Ci also prayed wholeheartedly that the movie would obtain its original honor. For this, Qian Wu and Song Ci were very sincere. After offering incense, they bowed at a standard 90 degrees angle.
After attending the opening ceremony, the actors were ready to start their hair and makeup.
All the actors except for Song Ci, who had been selected before the audition, only needed to have on the makeup that had been agreed upon when they had been chosen. As Song Ci never did a screen test for the movie, she naturally had never tried on her character’s makeup. This would be her first time.
Qian Wu had gone deep into the village to see what eighteen-year-old girls were wearing. According to their dressing standards, he bought a few sets of clothes that Chen Guihua would wear, some of which were even deliberately worn out. If it were not for the fact that he was afraid Song Ci would not be used to wearing pre-loved clothes, he would have bought them from the villagers.

“Change into this set of clothes,” Qian Wu said to Song Ci.
Song Ci realized it was a cheap white t-shirt and jeans as well as a pair of canvas shoes. The jeans had been washed until white, and the canvas shoes seemed to have been brushed many times. Fortunately, they were clean. At a glance, it was obvious that the owner had done his best to maintain his cleanliness and dignity.

Song Ci came out once he had changed her clothes. Qian Wu looked at her hair and touched his chin. Her hair was not long, so she tied it into a low ponytail.
Qian Wu sized her up for a while. “Other than your skin being a little pale, everything else is fine. However, Chen Guihua has always been a good student, and looking like a poor elite scholar has always been the goal.”
Song Ci looked at herself in the mirror. She looked the same as usual. It was as if she had returned to her university days. She looked at the director. “That’s it?”
“What else?” Qian Wu smiled. Chen Guihua was a student. She always studied and never really did much farming. If she were to make herself look ugly, it would seem fake.
Song Ci accepted his words. After all, the script also said that Chen Guihua was quite good-looking. Otherwise, she would not have been able to find a carpenter as her husband. At that time, men with skills were well-to-do in society with good family backgrounds.
Moreover, when Chen Guihua appeared, she was a pure and gentle high school student with good grades, one of the few in the village. She was full of youth and dreams, which made people envious. Hence, it made her end so sad.
Song Ci followed Qian Wu out and saw Chu Yi, who had changed into his character’s clothes and was talking to someone else. He had changed a lot from his usual self. He was wearing a wig that slightly touched his shoulders, with some being locks that looked like they had not been washed for a long time.
Chu Yi turned around with a cigarette in his hand when Qian Wu called out to him. While he did not look like the usual Chu Yi, he did not look like a hooligan either.
However, Song Ci thought his current appearance was obviously Chu Yi’s temperament with Shi Qiang’s appearance, which was why she felt that it was a little strange. Once filming started, Chu Yi would be in his character, and his temperament would change.
Chu Yi saw Song Ci staring at him and walked over with a smile. He looked at her from head to toe. “You didn’t change much.”
“You’ve changed,” Song Ci said sincerely.
Chu Yi smiled. “Yes. I got my hair done.”
Song Ci looked curiously at his hair and even reached out to touch it. In the end, she sighed and said, “I thought you would have short hair. It turns out that you’re wearing a wig. I think you still look more handsome with short hair, though.”
“I think so, too.” Chu Yi agreed.
Qian Wu felt this was purely due to their fixed impression of each other. “It’s just that you’re not used to it. It’ll be fine once you get used to it.” As he spoke, he led them to the camera.
For their first scene, he planned to film Chen Guihua when she first failed her college entrance examination. Chen Guihua was in a more relaxed mood then, so it would be easier for Song Ci to get into her character better.
Song Ci naturally had no objections.
The scene was very simple. Chen Guihua and her mother were walking on the road in the village. While waiting for her college entrance examination results, she would help her parents with the farm work in her spare time.
Her mother, afraid she would burn under the sun, gave her a straw hat. The other people in the village also smiled and asked her, “So, the exam is over?”
“Yes,” Chen Guihua replied politely. After all, she was very polite and gentle.
It was noted that Chen Guihua had been studying in the town all year round and would only return to the village during the winter and summer breaks. In addition, she had been reading alone at home after returning, so she was not very familiar with the villagers.
