Chapter 44: Great Joy

  As the crisp sound of the gavel rang out, Wu Minru looked at the Japanese military officer in front of her with a righteous expression and said loudly, "I have nothing to say, kill me if you want."

  The Japanese officer roared in anger: "Hachigatsu!" He suddenly raised the pistol in his hand, and the butt of the gun slammed into Wu Minru's forehead with a loud crash. Fresh blood flowed from the wound onto her beautiful face.

  Wu Minru stood up straight, trying to show a fearless expression on her face, then with the sound of a gunshot, Wu Minru covered her chest with one hand, and blood gushed out from between her fingers.

  "Cut!" Cheng Han's hoarse voice finally rang out on the set, his mustache trembling, a pair of ox eyes staring wide, as if looking at a mortal enemy, gazing at Wu Minru who was completely at a loss.

  "You're a pig! Ah, you're supposed to play a fearless female warrior, not some cuckolded wife with a sullen face. Your eyes and expression need to be on point, what's the use of having a poker face? Are you constipated?"

  Tong Jing's eyes widened in shock as she shifted slightly towards the corner, the thunderous roar wasn't directed at her, but subconsciously, Tong Jing felt a stinging pain in her eardrums, extremely grateful that she had mistakenly called Tan Jieyan earlier, otherwise if she had been late, the one being scolded to the point of blood splattering would have definitely been herself.

  "Ah." Having finally vented enough, Cheng Han glanced over and nodded, as if Wu Minru had come to a realization, and began filming again.

  But this time it was shorter, Wu Minru was NG by Cheng Han again, the makeup artist quickly came to repair Wu Minru's damaged makeup due to fake bloodstains, and the prop master also quickly cleaned up the scene, reloaded bullets into the handgun.

  After the fifth NG.

  "Get out, you're just a joke! Do you even know what it means to be a Communist Party female warrior? Don't you know, Jiang Jie? Liu Hulan should at least know, right? Wu Minru, didn't you drop out of elementary school? Can't even do such a simple play well. Get down, are you still stuck there like a weed?! Ten minutes, Tong Qiang, get up here!" Cheng Han furiously threw away the cigarette in his hand and scolded loudly before directly replacing her.

  Her face turned pale, Wu Minru's eyes reddened, and she bit her pale lips tightly, completely unaware of where she had not performed well to make Cheng Han criticize her so ruthlessly.

  Everyone on the set looked at Wu Minru with great sympathy as she walked down with her head hung low. In fact, Director Cheng was really nitpicking, who in this era could still understand the spirit of a female warrior who views death as a return? It's not like it's wartime.

  In the eyes of many, Wu Minru's acting is passable but not outstanding. However, as a newcomer, she can't be compared to the superstars in terms of acting skills. But by the standards of newcomers, Wu Minru is absolutely excellent.

  "What are you shrinking there for? Are you a gecko?" Cheng Han furrowed his brow, his big beard quivering as he glared at Tong Hua, who was completely intimidated by his sudden outburst. Geez, is he that scary? They even had roasted duck together!

  "I... I'm..." Tong Jiang stuttered, trying hard to think of something to say that would prevent Cheng Han from using his loud voice to assault her eardrums.

  Wu Minru can't act well, and Tong Jing, who is currently being intimidated by the director to the point of stuttering, can still perform well as Su Yue, who has a fearless spirit and isn't afraid of death? The people on set have already started quietly preparing earplugs, so they can block their ears when Director Cheng starts scolding.

  Digression

  Everyone, there's another chapter coming up later.
