The two of them walked around the Ambition filming location and turned right. At once, in the not-too-far distance, they saw a hovering crowd.
As they approached, they heard someone shouting as he ran towards them, “Ten extras needed in a crowd scene. Eighty dollars a day!”
Immediately, the hovering crowd dashed towards him!
Seeing that so many people were swarming around him, the stage supervisor of Ambition frowned. He casually pointed at a few who he found pleasing to his eyes and was about to leave when he spotted Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao.
Among the crowd, the two women were outstanding when it came to both looks and manners. It was hard not to be dazzled by them.
The stage supervisor’s eyes lit up. “And the two of you! Come over and assemble here quickly! You’ll come with me and join the crew!”
Stunned, Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao exchanged a look.
The stage supervisor had made this suggestion since they were both good-looking.
But when he saw their reaction, he frowned and said impatiently, “Well, are you coming? If not, I’ll get someone else!”
Shi Nianyao was still in a daze when Qiao Lian nodded. “Coming! Coming!”
Then she tugged Shi Nianyao along with her hand and ran over to the group.
When they approached the stage supervisor and he had a closer look, he realized that the girls were as good-looking as some celebrities. He was all the more pleased at this.
He thought of the two roles that he needed today... and smiled at once. He could finally complete his task and report back to the director.
Following the group of extras, Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao finally entered the filming location.
As the stage supervisor walked with them, he briefed them on things that they had to be aware of on the set. “Don’t wander around, and maintain order at all times! Most importantly, you are not to approach celebrities for photos. And you shall not take any unauthorized pictures of them! Do you understand?”
“Remember these rules.”
“Great. Now all of you will go put on some makeup. The gentlemen will use the makeup room on your left here, and ladies, you may use the makeup room on your right. You two...” The stage supervisor pointed at Shi Nianyao and Qiao Lian. “Come with me.”
Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao had just been about to head for the makeup room on the right. They paused when they heard the stage supervisor’s instructions.
Obediently, they walked over as told.
The stage supervisor started to entice them. “I see you two are rather good-looking. I suppose you’re looking to develop your career in the industry. Now I’m giving you a chance. Today, the scene we’re filming involves two female roles that are quite significant. The two actresses who were appointed initially for these roles did not turn up. So I’ll let the both of you have a try.”
Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao looked at each other and then said simultaneously, “Thank you!”
The stage supervisor led them towards a dressing and makeup room that was situated in an obviously better environment. “Seeing how obedient you are, and plus the fact that today’s roles are so important, I’ll take you to a better makeup room. Follow me.”
The stage supervisor was a young man of about 25 or 26 years old. When he saw the pretty girls, he naturally wanted to show off.
Qiao Lian and Shi Nianyao followed him.
The stage supervisor asked the two to wait for a bit while he entered the makeup room first.
Qiao Lian could hear voices talking in the room. “He’s still filming and it will take him at least another half an hour to get here. The two roles I have here are important, and the director places importance on them too. So can you come and do their makeup? When he arrives, we’ll leave.”
After talking endlessly and saying many nice and flattering words, the stage supervisor finally persuaded the other person to agree.
The stage supervisor came back out and told the girls, “Okay, you can go in now.”
They entered the makeup room.
The makeup artist started to put on their makeup.
After a while, the stage supervisor brought in two sets of traditional dresses for them to change into.
He looked at them and said to Qiao Lian, “You’ll put on the yellow one.
