Her acting was not just superb in terms of expression, but her features were also so outstanding that they violated advertising laws.
Standing before the camera, even through the veil, one could discern the brilliance and unparalleled beauty of her features.
Some people's faces are not suited for the camera; what appears as a perfect ten in person can be reduced to a mere five or six on screen.
Then there are those who are natural screen darlings. No matter what kind of lens is used, they can leverage their strengths and minimize their weaknesses, showcasing their excellent external qualities to the fullest.
Jiang Ling's features and figure were a perfect match for the camera; she was born for this profession.
Filming, lighting, camera push-in, wire work.
Everything proceeded in an orderly fashion, her movements flowing like water, seamless and perfect, smoother than any chocolate.
"Cut!"
This scene was completed in a single take.
The crew members on set couldn't quite believe what they were seeing.
Guan Suyun placed immense importance on the role of Li Shengnan.
Previously, when filming Li Shengnan's entrance, the actress playing the part had gone through more than twenty takes before Guan Suyun was satisfied.
Jiang Ling passing in just one take was simply incredible.
Beyond their surprise, the crew members were also quite pleased.
The production of "Romance of the Cloud Sea and Jade Bow" had been dragging on for so long, and they, responsible for the on-set work, were exhausted.
If Jiang Ling could manage to get every scene in one take, it would make things much easier for them.
Perhaps the misfortunes of "Romance of the Cloud Sea and Jade Bow" were so dire that even heaven couldn't bear to watch. Any segment Jiang Ling was involved in filming went so smoothly it was unbelievable.
Whether it was a grand scene or a small one, she practically got it in one take, her speed comparable to a rocket launch.
During the mid-day break, Jiang Ling and Sister Sa sat opposite each other, eating their boxed meals.
Sister Sa took a bite of a braised chicken leg and said cheerfully, "I didn't expect the boxed meals from the crew to be so delicious. Look at this chicken leg, glistening with oil, fragrant and flavorful. It tastes even better than at a five-star hotel."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ling put on gloves and took a bite. Immediately, the aroma of the braised meat exploded in her mouth.
"Mmm, delicious. I heard that every time Guan Suyun films, she arranges for her private chef to prepare the meals. That's why many artists in the industry say her crew's boxed meals are the best. Seeing it today, the reputation is well-deserved. It's not impressive to make delicacies taste good; it's a true master who can make the most common ingredients taste uniquely delicious. The chef responsible for the braised chicken legs has remarkable skills!"
As Jiang Ling spoke, she swiftly finished the chicken leg, bone and all.
"Indeed, female directors are more meticulous and considerate than male directors. They understand the difficulties faced by everyone on set and specially hire a great chef to cook. This arrangement is neither extravagant nor wasteful, yet it ensures everyone eats comfortably. It shows great care and effort," Sister Sa said, her mouth slick with oil.
After finishing the chicken leg, Sister Sa took a napkin to wipe her mouth and said, "Lingzi, I just went to get the boxed meals. Do you know what the staff said about you?"
"What did they say?" Jiang Ling looked up, curious.
"They gave you a nickname: 'One-Take Jiang'."
"Ah?"
Upon hearing the nickname, Jiang Ling felt a flock of crows fly overhead and couldn't help but say, "Am I that fiery-tempered?"
Ginger is spicy, and any nickname associated with ginger is almost always related to spiciness.
When applied to a woman, it almost invariably means she is fiery-tempered.
They couldn't possibly say she was fiery-tempered just because her surname was Jiang. That would be utterly unfair!
