“Be careful, this is the prop for the next scene, be careful with it!” The staff kept repeating the warning. Because of the need to fit the character, the furniture for the film and television production was custom-made. If it was damaged, it would cost more than money, it would cost them precious time.
“Pay attention, especially this necklace. It’s very valuable, don’t break it!” The staff moved slowly step by step, afraid to bump into any of the valuable props, especially the gold and silver. Director Zheng had used real gold and silver for the sake of realism.
Lu Xuan looked at the staff who had been busy since early in the morning and quickly spotted the most valuable object in the room. She casually called out to a person, “Is this our group’s Prop?”
The staff wiped the sweat off his head. “Yes, Sister Xuan. These are the props that Sister Jiang will be using at night. The most valuable thing is this necklace. It’s not cheap. Director Zheng warned told me many times not to break it.”
Jiang Xue? A sharp glint flashed across Lu Xuan’s eyes. Since you are one of Jiang Zhi’s underlings and that woman has been bothering me, blame your allegiance for this.
Lu Xuan looked at the gorgeous necklace and an idea popped up in her mind. She waved her hand dismissively and let the staff member continue.
After returning to the lounge, Lu Xuan looked at herself in the mirror. She moved her hair away from her eyes and gazed at herself with a grin. Jiang Zhi, do you think anyone will help you?
As everyone was resting, Lu Xuan sneaked into the props room and looked at the necklace placed in the middle. She loosened the ornaments on the necklace one by one, then put it back in its original position and left with satisfaction.
At night, everything was ready.
This scene was to be held between Jiang Xue and Wu Dai. The two were pushed to the climax by their emotions. Jiang Xue pretended to hold on to the necklace. At that moment, the necklace broke from her hand and fell to the ground.
Immediately, everyone held their breaths and did not dare to say a word.
“Cut! Who’s in charge! What’s going on!” Director Zheng stood up and pointed at the people around him. His expression was exceptionally ugly.
The props team walked out shakily. “Director Zheng, I guarantee that everything was fine when we placed it there. I don’t know… how did it break in Sister Jiang’s hands?”
Jiang Xue’s face turned pale and she quickly explained, “Director Zheng, I didn’t use any force just now. It broke when I touched it. I don’t know what happened either.”
“Stop arguing! I’m not asking you to shirk responsibility one by one. Think about how to fix it!” Director Zheng’s face darkened as he took the necklace and gave it a once-over. There was no way to fix it. It was to be used in close-up shots and skimping on it was not an option.
The props team could not do anything either. They did not know what was going on either. They braced themselves and explained, “This can only be fixed by professionals. I’ll go now!”
Jiang Xue was also anxious, especially since the necklace had broke in her hand. Because they could not proceed with the filming, another day was wasted.
The props team left, and the entire studio was silent again.
Lu Xuan watched from afar and revealed a smug smile. She was very satisfied with this outcome. Jiang Zhi, let’s see how you solve this!
Director Zheng did not want to waste any more time, but the lack of crucial props left his hands tied.
Jiang Zhi touched the necklace on her neck. After thinking for a long time, she made up her mind to save the situation first. “Director Zheng, why don’t you use my substitute first?” f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
Director Zheng held it in his hand and took a look. It was definitely possible. Compared to the previous necklace, it was even more luxurious. His tightly creased brows finally relaxed a little.. “This is good! Carry on, carry on. Camera crew, actors, hurry up and get ready!”
