Chapter 142 I feel so sorry for my brother
There was no leakage overnight.
The morning in Hengdian has a bit of a horse racing feel to it.
Staff members from various film crews carried equipment and gear to the film set.
Many people were dressed in mourning clothes, chatting and laughing.
"Ah Liang, are you going to the feast? Let's see what kind of food they serve."
"They're filming a movie, not attending a funeral!"
"It doesn't seem like it; I feel quite sad."
"————"
Liangmu coughed up blood: "Brother, you have scenes to film today too, can't you just do your job well?"
"Alright," Shen Jian nodded.
Today's scenes are one of the few that are relatively important.
The plot requires the actor to secretly protect the female lead, so he appears in quite a few scenes with her, and there are also two action scenes.
Although it's not complicated, it still requires a few sword swings.
Since it's a period drama, they didn't put much effort into the martial arts direction; it was all pretty standard choreography.
The character Shen Jian only needs to make one move to intimidate the enemy; there's nothing else he needs to act.
Arrived at the film set.
I bought milk tea and Zhengxin chicken cutlet as usual, as a bribe for makeup artist Xu Meimei.
So once again, she got a carefully styled look.
It amazed the audience.
"Don't you guys think Shen Jian is handsome?"
"Indeed, I'm starting to think I'm becoming a fan of his; I feel like he has great potential."
"Is it too early to buy now? I need to wait and see."
"This person has a lot of online controversy, who knows when things might collapse, otherwise I'd still be a fan."
"Look, he started practicing the moves as soon as he arrived, and he seems to be working quite hard."
"???"
"Sis, are you sure that wasn't just stretching?"
There was a lot of discussion outside the film set.
"Little brother, you're actually really suited for historical dramas. Why don't you consider a career change? Maybe we can work together in the future."
Shen Jian, holding a long sword, looked at Meng Ziyi and said, "Sister Meng, do you really want to be my partner?"
"Shameless." Meng Ziyi's face turned slightly red: "Who wants to be your CP? Do we have any chemistry standing together?"
'
"I don't feel like I know, but I do have a reaction."
"You, you're a pervert~, oh dear."
"I said the audience reacted, what are you thinking?"
Meng Ziyi looked at the long sword in Shen Jian's hand and smiled awkwardly: "No, you should hurry up and practice your moves, filming will start soon."
"
After saying that, Meng Ziyi turned and ran away.
The hem of her ancient costume swayed slightly, revealing embroidered shoes beneath the brocade, and her fair ankles were exposed, even smoother than the long sword in her hand.

"?"
The character development progress flashed before my eyes.
Holy crap?
Dude, are you mistaken, or am I?
This sudden reminder left Shen Jian somewhat bewildered.
In the past, when creating a persona during live streams, there was always some deliberate guidance involved.
However, this time it appeared completely spontaneously.
So where did I put in my effort?
Is peeking at Sister Meng's embroidered shoes considered hard work?
He squinted and tested it again, but it didn't appear again.
Obviously not because of that.
Shen Jian's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.
Thankfully, it wasn't.
If this were truly the way to cultivate a persona, he couldn't even imagine how far he could push his "hard-working" persona to.
After all, he's a decent person.
So if it wasn't because of that, then what was it because of that persona?
The process was repeating itself.
Shen Jian swung the sword hilt a few times.
[Effort +1]
The prompt reappeared before my eyes.
Shen suddenly realized.
It must have been that he waved the props a few times unintentionally, which was seen by the people around him, who mistakenly thought he was practicing the moves, and that's how his character was added.
It seems they've seized a good opportunity to cultivate a new public image.
Shen Jian adjusted his posture, his expression becoming serious.
He waved his longsword haphazardly a few times, then performed the two routine moves that the martial arts instructor had just told him.

After playing it once, the character seems to have grown even more.
Shen Jian didn't stop and did it a second time.
[Effort +1]
[Effort (Level 1): 100/100]
[Reward completed: 1 point]
【Effortful Persona (Level 2): 0/200 — Completion Reward: 2 Persona Points】
Because there were many people around.
Shen Jian's character was changed very quickly.
The first level of progress was completed very quickly.
Looking at the prompts on the panel, he decided to start working like crazy.
His scenes need to wait until today's filming is finished. According to the script's schedule, he won't be able to go on set until at least this afternoon.
Shen Jian began to repeat the action for the third time.
Fourth time.
The fifth time—

far away.
Many people looked over curiously.
Although everyone hasn't had much contact with Shen Jian these past few days, they can still get a sense of what kind of person he is.
They're certainly not the hardworking type.
He's good at flattering and sycophancy, and he's eloquent and persuasive. He's not a bad person, but he's definitely not one to stay put.
Moreover, I hardly saw him do anything on set, except for being handsome.
But what's wrong with me today?
A sudden decision to change direction?
Even if the movements are simple, practicing them over and over again will still make you tired.
Moreover, it's just a cameo role.
"What's wrong with him today?"
"It's just a few shots, is it really necessary to be so serious?"
"Just putting on an act."
Among the group, Zhao Duoyang said with a disdainful expression, "With so many fans around, I'm just practicing a few moves for them to see. I'll stop after a while."
Many people nodded in agreement upon hearing Zhao Duoyang's analysis.
It was obvious from the start that he and Shen Jian didn't get along.
Therefore, no one knows the other person better than him.
Zhao Duoyang smiled and said, "We're all actors. Can't you tell if someone is truly working hard? Could you practice a few moves a hundred times?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Indeed, it's impossible, and there's no need for it."
"yes."
Just as the group was discussing this...
Shen Jian has already started repeating it for the tenth time.
Liangmu watched with some concern; the sudden exertion made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Shen Jian, are you alright?"
"It's nothing, I just felt that since I should have more screen time, I should practice more before appearing on camera."
"It's good that you think that way, but do you want to take a break? You seem quite skilled already."
Shen Jian shook his head as he practiced the movements: "Not enough."
"Well--"
Liangmu was completely dumbfounded.
If this were the usual Shen Jian, he would definitely find a place to drink milk tea every morning.
"Then you keep practicing, I'll go buy you some milk tea."
"Get a Zhengxin Chicken Cutlet."
"it is good."
After giving his instructions, Liangmu turned and left.
Shen Jian, on the other hand, continued to work on his character design.
Two hours passed quickly.
Shen Jian didn't stop drinking water.
However, the character design, which was initially frequently displayed, eventually required a certain time interval to appear once.
He wasn't surprised by this.
A persona and behavior require external validation; although there are many people around, there will always be a point where the market becomes saturated.
However, we've already received a lot of goods.
[Effort +1]
[Effort (Level 2): 104/200]
It's already halfway done. If I keep going, I might be able to reach level two today and get more character points.
Once you accumulate 3 points, you can unlock the talent tree or continue drawing character cards.
Wow, he's been practicing all the time.
"I didn't expect Shen Jian to work so hard."
"Yeah, he was sweating a lot, but he's still handsome."
"I feel sorry for him. He works so hard and is still so approachable. He only drinks Mixue Ice Cream and eats a few pieces of Zhengxin Chicken Cutlet."
"Oh my god, he seems so nice~."
"???"
Many girls outside were taking pictures with their phones.
This also attracted paparazzi.
Yang Guang crouched in the corner, pressed the shutter, and recorded Shen Jian's practice.
"Today is quite interesting."
"Senior, Shen Jian seems different today."
Yang Guang smiled confidently: "See? The harder you work, the luckier you get. We'll win again next time."
