Chapter 97 Legendary Heroine and Lady of the Boudoir
Their techniques were both gentle and precise. As Jiang Songchu's makeup was being applied, her eyes gradually became deep and sharp, as if they could see through all the hypocrisy and lies in the world and look directly at the core of the truth.
A slight upturn at the corners of his mouth carried a hint of barely perceptible disdain, a contempt for all challenges and difficulties in the world, as if to say, "Come on, I'm ready to welcome you."
During breaks in makeup, Jiang Songchu and director Lin Qian exchanged ideas, discussing their deep understanding of the character Chi Jiangli and detailed plans for filming.
Lin Qian praised Jiang Songchu's dedication and professionalism, and Jiang Songchu humbly accepted Lin Qian's guidance and suggestions.
When Jiang Songchu put on this light green martial arts-style costume and applied this exquisite makeup, she seemed to have truly transformed into the chivalrous woman Chi Jiangli who roamed the martial arts world.
And so, Chi Jiangli appeared before everyone, dazzling them and inspiring their admiration.
Everyone present was amazed by Jiang Songchu's stunning performance; they felt as if the real Chi Jiangli had stepped out of the book and stood before them.
At this moment, a renowned photographer is standing in front of a large professional camera.
He has unique insights into the control of light and shadow and the capture of characters' emotions.
He knows how to capture the most touching moments of a character and how to perfectly blend the character with the background to create stunning visual effects.
He carefully adjusted the camera settings while occasionally raising the camera to take test shots of Jiang Songchu.
As the last shot focused on Jiang Songchu, the photographer's eyes gleamed with anticipation and excitement.
After a moment's thought, he instructed Jiang Songchu: "Songchu, imagine it."
"You are now Chi Jiangli, that legendary female knight-errant in the martial arts world."
"Your gaze must be firm, but also carry a hint of tenderness; you must master that complex emotion."
"Are you ready? I'm about to start capturing Chi Jiangli's charm."
Jiang Songchu nodded slightly, closed her eyes, and let her thoughts immerse themselves in that world of martial arts, filled with both swordplay and tender affection.
She seemed to hear the distant sound of horses' hooves, see the swirling sword shadows, and feel the burning passion and the icy resolve.
When Jiang Songchu slowly opened her eyes, they seemed to contain a thousand years of history and legend, shimmering with Chi Jiangli's unique light, transcending the boundaries of time and space, intertwining the heroic spirit and tenderness of ancient and modern times.
She slowly raised her hand and gently stroked an ancient longsword beside her, as if telling it a story that belonged only to them.
She then slightly adjusted her posture to better immerse herself in the role, exuding an extraordinary and refined aura. At this moment, she was Chi Jiangli, the female knight who left behind countless legends in the martial arts world.
Upon seeing this, the photographer immediately pressed the shutter, and the flash went off in the studio, capturing the moment.
He praised Jiang Songchu's photogenic quality, saying, "It's incredible, Songchu. Every expression and movement of yours seems to tell a moving story. Your presence brings this scene to life."
He kept clicking away, his fingers dancing across the camera buttons, as if playing a symphony about martial arts and beauty.
The shooting time flew by, and I realized it was almost as long as the makeup and styling time!
The crew members present were shocked.
This was the first time they had ever seen a photographer so dedicated and passionate during a photoshoot.
Someone whispered among themselves: "It seems we've really found the perfect candidate for Chi Jiangli this time. Jiang Songchu not only fits the role in appearance, but her temperament is also perfectly integrated with the character. It's as if she is Chi Jiangli herself."
While a large number of photos are not typically required for a professional makeup portrait shoot, multiple attempts and adjustments are necessary to achieve the best results.
However, the photographer was unusually excited today. He not only quickly captured Jiang Songchu's most touching moments, but also couldn't help taking many more photos.
Each photo is unique; some capture the determination in Jiang Songchu's eyes, while others showcase the tacit understanding between her and the longsword.
The photographer engaged in a silent dialogue with Jiang Songchu through the lens, while Jiang Songchu responded to this invitation from the camera with her unique charm.
With Director Lin's "OK," the martial arts makeup and styling were perfectly completed, and a faint sense of accomplishment filled the studio.
Jiang Songchu stood in front of the mirror, her face radiating heroic spirit. She wore a dashing martial arts costume and held a long sword tightly in her hand. She had just escaped from the sword fights of the martial world, and her brows still carried a hint of unruliness and chivalry.
However, today's photoshoot is not over yet; she is about to undergo another glamorous transformation—the look of Chi Jiangli in her boudoir.
The makeup artists carefully began to disassemble the martial arts makeup hairstyle and accessories, gently letting down the long, black, and shiny hair, and carefully combing each strand, laying the most meticulous groundwork for the upcoming new look.
Meanwhile, the costume designers had already prepared all the clothing for the young ladies' quarters.
A long embroidered dress in a light pink color lay quietly on the clothes rack, its skirt wide and light.
Embroidered with delicate peach blossom patterns, every stitch and thread embodies the craftsman's painstaking efforts, revealing the unique gentleness of a young lady in her boudoir.
The matching headdress consists of a delicate beaded chain and several carefully selected peach blossom hairpins, which blend perfectly with the color and style of the long dress, maintaining the dignified elegance of a young lady while also exuding the liveliness and vivacity of a young girl.
The makeup artists began to surround Jiang Songchu, redoing her makeup and styling.
As the makeup artists' skillful hands moved through Jiang Songchu's hair, a brand new image of Chi Jiangli gradually emerged.
They first gently combed her long hair, then divided it into several sections, braided each section into an exquisite braid, and then skillfully coiled it into an intricate bun.
They adorned Jiang Songchu's hair with pearls and jade ornaments according to her attire, making her hairstyle both noble and graceful.
A few strands of hair gently fell beside her ears, adding to her tenderness, making her look like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.
When Jiang Songchu changed into that embroidered long dress, she seemed to instantly transform from a chivalrous heroine into a wealthy young lady from a secluded household.
Her eyes softened and deepened, a faint smile played on her lips, and every gesture exuded the gentle and quiet grace of a young lady from a respectable family.
Seeing this, the photographer's eyes gleamed with excitement. He quickly adjusted the lighting and angles, trying to capture the unique charm of Jiang Songchu.
This time, without his guidance, Jiang Songchu felt as if she had returned to Gu Tianrong after putting on this outfit. She was a young lady from a respectable family, so why would she need a modern person to guide her on how to be a young lady from a respectable family?
