Chapter 126 Nude scene
Originally it’s simply a normal interview, but currently it has evolved to become top story for several
days.
On the shooting day for Comforters Soap commercial, Shawn stays together with Jenny in the dressing
room, having a discussion about the recent happening.
“After going through an internal discussion, our company replies that this is really a sticky business,
even if both of you take the initiative to post your group photos on social media, in the end you’re still
going to catch it.”
“It doesn’t matter to me.” Jenny frowns, trying hard to put on a brave front on.
“You have to rely on your fans and the audience to survive, say that you don’t care about them again if
you dare!”
The voice of Shawn takes on a more serious tone.
Suddenly, the atmosphere of the dressing room grows tense.
After putting some essential oil on the hair of Jenny, the makeup artist leaves the room sensibly.
“Our set-up will be ready after ten minutes, the brand ambassador can come out in ten minutes and get
ready for shooting.”
Jenny hitches up the bath towel wrapped around her breast, and for a moment she can’t find any word
to say.
Actually, she’s a little nervous, this is not her first time to act in films or shoot for commercials, but this
is her first time to shoot a nude scene. Even though only her back will be recorded, but she is not
wearing any clothes now except that her nipples are simply covered by the pasties.
Shawn looks at Jenny in the mirror, breathing a sigh with helplessness. She pats Jenny on the shoulder
gently. “Don’t be nervous, the spot will be cleared up by the time we start filming and it’s just the
director and me. So, you’re just required to memorize your lines and do your best, don’t worry that you Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
will be suffering a wardrobe malfunction.”
Jenny nods, regarding the fans matter mentioned by Shawn just now, even though she doesn’t say
anything, but she has realized that her attitude is wrong, inwardly she feels ashamed of herself.
It occurs to Jenny that Shawn seemed to have something to tell her just now, then she asks, “Shawn,
do you want to inform me about the approach that will be used by the company to deal with this crisis?
Should I take a group photo with Jessica or attend an event together with her?"
Outside the door, the production assistant is urging Jenny to come out for shooting. Shawn hesitates
for a moment, smiles, “It’s okay, let’s talk about it when you’re done. It’s not a big deal, even if the
company don’t intervene in this matter, it will be settled down in a couple of days.”
Doubtfully, Jenny steps out of the dressing room with a bath towel wrapped around her.
Shawn looks at her back, letting out a sigh silently.
If Jenny know the decision of the company, Shawn’s afraid that she may not be able to concentrate on
the shooting now, so it will be better to hide the truth from her.
The commercial for Comforters Soap will be shot indoors in the studio; a green scene is set as the
background which will be edited during the stage of post-production; there’s a bathtub placed in the
middle and Jenny has to sit in the bathtub, showing her naked back towards the camera while as the
cameramen film a close-up shot of her profile and her back, she soaps herself from her shoulder to her
waist.
The first scene is very simple, however, in order to get the best possible aesthetic effect, they have
done a lot of retakes.
The line is only one sentence, “Comfortable home, Comforters.”
Until the director shouts “cut” for the first scene, all the tension that Jenny has managed to keep bottled
up is relieved eventually. Suddenly, the cold makes her sneeze, Shawn quickly wraps her in the bath
towel and pulls her out from the water.
Even though the air conditioner is turned on here, but in order to prevent the cloud of steam from
hindering the desired effect, the bathtub is filled with the cold water. In winter, asking her to sit in a tub
of cold water with a totally naked body actually is going to kill her.
“Well, thanks a lot to our actress. You can take a break for ten minutes, others get ready for the next
scene…”
Shawn helps Jenny to put on a down coat, after handing her a hot-water bag and putting on a pair of
snow boots on her feet, finally she has got herself in hand again.
“Luckily we’re shooting in the studio. At the beginning, they’ve told me that this commercial will be
filmed outdoors and the location is fixed at the Moon Lake in the countryside, I don’t even know how to
tell you about it.”
Shawn chatters for a while, adjusting the clothing of Jenny. “When the shooting’s over, remember to
drink some Indigowoad Root herbal tea, otherwise you’ll be in trouble if you catch a cold.”
In the second scene, Jenny will play the scene with two actors who play the roles as her husband and
her uncle. This scene has more connotation, the moment Jenny takes a shower, the soap bar slips out
of her hands. When the soap bar slips outside the bathroom, the husband then bents to pick up the
soap bar while the uncle with a dog in his arms is dumbfounded at the sight that meets his eyes.
There are four close-up shot will be filmed for this scene.
After Jenny has lost the soap bar, she tries to peep outside through the crevice in the door.
When the husband picks up the soap bar, the cameraman will film a close-up shot of the hand picking
up the soap bar.
The uncle holds a dog in his arms, standing behind his brother with a meaningful look on his face.
After that, the scene shifts to the close-up shot of the husband’s butt and subsequently, the shot pans
slowly to get a panoramic shot for three of them.
When the first time Jenny sees the advertising plan, she can’t stop from laughing and ask Shawn, “Are
you sure that this commercial can pass the inspection?”
Shawn adopts an air of indifference, “It’s not our concern, you just need to complete the shooting.”
Jenny knows both actors who are going to play with her, one of them is Nicolas whom she has
participated a variety show with. He acts as her uncle and since he steps into this studio, he keeps
holding his dogs in his arms, never put it down till now. He put on a warm smile on his face; he is hardly
the same man as the man who has showed an arrogant behavior during the meeting that day.
While another actor is older, he gives an appearance of stoic, indifferent and forbidding like a veteran
cadre. Jenny and he have worked together for a magazine cover before, but his face seems to have
changed a lot since she last met him.
At the first floor of the studio, there’s a lady standing against the railing. She is dressed in a grey
overcoat with a purely-colored mink cashmere scarf wrapped around her neck; her ears wears a pair of
imperial green jade earrings, making her look particularly distinguished. Since her position is in a blind
corner, nobody has noticed her.
The lady frowns as she watches the happenings in the studio. When she sees Jenny come out from
the dressing room with a bath towel wrapped around her body only, her face is as black as thunder,
showing her displeasure.
In her eyes, Jenny has behaved like a wanton, how does she deserve to be the daughter-in-law of Lu’s
family?
Shawn is a woman of keen perception, she always feels that there is someone looking at them up and
down. She looks up to the first floor, glancing around and she find out that there’s a lady standing in the
corner. Her nerves are tightened suddenly, then she asks the production assistant.
“Somebody is standing at the first floor, is she one of your company’s employees?”
The production assistant is young, he looks up and gives a glance to the lady. Even though the lady
doesn’t look familiar to him, but she looks distinguished and has dressed elegantly, he touches his
head and says hesitatingly, “She might be our supervisor, we have employed the security guards to
guard the door and the people with no duty can’t enter this studio that easy.”
Shawn frowns, when the filming has been completed, she takes Jenny back to the dressing room,
showing her the photo that she has taken secretly with her phone. “Just now, this lady has kept staring
at the film set, she seems to be watching you. Do you know her?”
Jenny takes a closer look at the photo, then shaking her head.
The distance is too far away, causing the photo to be unclear, she can only just discern a grey-colored
silhouette from the photo.
“Is she from your grandparents?”
“It’s impossible…”
Jenny raises up her head and glances at Shawn vigilantly.
Throughout Jade Picture, there are only three persons who have known the real story of her family;
they are Shawn, Frankie and Jessica. Even Jessica and Frankie have very limited knowledge about the
internal conditions of Jin Family, but for the friendship among Shawn’s parents and Jin Family, she
won’t know these stories as well.
