The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!

Chapter 281: Chapter 281: Begin Shooting

Certainly, here is the translation following your guidelines:

The other four guests didn’t understand Evander’s shock, but when they heard that they could also use this talisman, they all got a bit excited.

Especially Sebastian and his group.

Their original role on the show was just to draw in views. Although they participated in completing tasks before, when it came to ghost hunting and problem-solving, they could only watch from the sidelines.

Though they learned a bit of mystical theory, they hadn’t done any practical work.

Ariel was particularly eager and immediately grabbed the talisman and started asking,

"Scarlett, tell us how to use this talisman. How do I throw it? Is it like you did before, holding it with two fingers and tossing it like this?"

As she spoke, she didn’t forget to pose and make the motion of tossing a talisman.

Sebastian and Ianthe weren’t as eager as Ariel, but they listened quietly, secretly comparing which hand gesture looked better.

Everyone was involved in acting, especially in fantasy dramas, and they all knew a bit about the gestures for casting spells.

Amber, although unaware of the specific use of the Soul Stabilizing Talisman, knew from Evander’s reaction that it was something good.

He felt excited but didn’t dare to show it too plainly, so he wouldn’t seem ignorant.

Scarlett saw everyone looking eager to give it a try, completely without the nervousness and concern they had when they first heard about the Big Ghost. She then explained the purpose of the Soul Stabilizing Talisman in detail and taught them a couple of incantations, making sure they memorized them.

Viewers in the live streaming chat began reciting along with them as they watched.

Even knowing that without a talisman, just reciting the spells was useless, they didn’t mind.

It’s a livestream; participation is key.

Some even reviewed the Golden Light Spell taught by Gregory Xander in the last episode, noting that they had memorized it and were just waiting for the chance to see a ghost.

While the few of them were in the resting area memorizing the incantations, Director Clark also came over.

Director Xu, around forty, looked worn from dealing with the ghost troubles plaguing the set and appeared somewhat deflated.

Even in the presence of these traffic-attracting guests, he could only muster a forced smile.

"Little Fish must’ve told you all about the crew’s situation. I’ll have to trouble you with this one. If we can solve this problem, I’ll owe you all a favor."

Director Xu held a certain status in the industry, and his favors were significant. Especially saying it so directly on a livestream meant it was a promise.

Scarlett explained her speculation, saying that although their participation as extras was meant to boost the show’s appeal, they accidentally hit upon the right method.

To make the Big Ghost reveal itself, participating was better than just waiting on the side.

"Considering what happened in previous scenes, we’ve arranged some emotional roles for extras in these next few days. Is that... okay?"

As Director Xu asked this, he primarily looked at Scarlett.

Since deciding to collaborate with Director Clark, Director Xu had done some homework on past content from "Inspiration" and knew that the actual lead of the show was this young girl in front of him.

He had no intention of underestimating her, but he was genuinely concerned that they might not be able to control the situation once the ghosts were summoned.

Then, not only would the problem remain unsolved, but these guests might even face harm.

It was important to remember that although these guests were his hopes, each one was valuable and should not be harmed.

Hearing the concern in Director Xu’s words, Scarlett was about to say there was no problem when Ariel already jumped in and said,

"With Scarlett here, don’t worry at all, Director Xu! As for the issue you mentioned..."

She paused, and it was as if Sebastian and the others felt it too, as they all chimed in,

"Not a big problem."

Scarlett’s classic line.

Not a big problem meant no problem at all.

Though Scarlett’s lines had been preemptively taken, she wasn’t annoyed, and she nodded sincerely at Director Xu.

Yes, just as they said.

Director Xu was reassured and instructed the stylists to begin arranging their looks.

Even though they were extras, since they were specifically invited, he wouldn’t really treat them like three-hundred-a-day extras; that would be wasteful!

Sebastian and Ariel’s status was unquestionable.

And then there was Young Master Scarlett’s excellent looks. If this drama could successfully wrap and broadcast, it would count as Young Master Scarlett’s screen debut, and it needed to be beautifully done. He was best at capturing unique beauties.

So, with a wave of his hand, he had the stylists proceed with the planned looks while he went back to have the writer tweak the script.

Yes, he wanted to add a villainous character who only appeared for five seconds but stole the entire show!

Perhaps due to Scarlett’s confidence, neither the production team nor the viewers in the chat were worried about the so-called Big Ghost causing trouble. Instead, they enthusiastically watched the guests getting their makeup done live.

Typically, production crews are wary of revealing new drama looks too early, but with the crew almost finished, who cared about early reveals.

Even so, Director Clark teased the audience a bit with the livestream setup.

Just before the final looks were revealed, the stream suddenly switched to the crew preparing behind the scenes.

This caused an uproar in the chat, with many demanding Director Clark bring back their beloved idols.

After nearly an hour, the shooting of "Prosperous Age" finally began amid much anticipation from the viewers.

The first appearance was Ariel as the princess, along with her two guards—Guard Amber and Guard Evander.

The storyline was that when the female lead, Ianthe, entered the palace, she accidentally encountered the spoiled princess, who was upset about her upcoming arranged marriage and vented her anger on everyone she met.

And her way of venting was very typical of Ariel.

"Why is she pruning the flowers here? Is she mocking me by cutting these flowers, just like my fate will be cut? Boo hoo, I don’t want to see her. They’re all bullying me..."

Princess Ariel pretended to be heartbroken, then pointed to the little palace maid trimming the flowers, her tone cold and casual.

"You two, make her go smack into that tree."

Upon hearing this, Guard Amber and Guard Evander stepped forward with expressionless faces. As the palace maid cried and pleaded, they took her by the arms and dragged her toward the tree.

One hit, not fainted.

Another hit, her head bloody, still not fainted.

Then keep going.

Ianthe appeared at this moment,

"Princess, I’ve heard the princess has been looking for an embroidery master skilled in Flying Silk Technique. Coincidentally, I know one. Is the princess interested in meeting her?"

As Ianthe spoke, the two guards continued their actions until Princess Ariel, somewhat intrigued, asked, "Really?"

Ianthe was just about to respond when she added,

"I know you’re not sincerely trying to introduce me to an embroidery master; you’re just trying to divert my attention to relieve this little maid. You’re very clever, but I don’t like being fooled."

She said and began to wipe her tears sadly,

"I’m not even married off yet, and a minister’s daughter is already trying to fool me. It’s clear how pathetic my current status is, boo hoo... You’re also bullying me."

"Princess, I wouldn’t dare!"

"Dare or not, you spoke," Princess Ariel said tearfully, then continued,

"I don’t want to see her crash into a tree anymore. Would you like to crash for me instead?"
