The program team selected a particularly long monologue.
Although it was a solo performance by the female lead before her death, with no interactions, the lines were quite ordinary and conversational, lacking any flowery language.
It was simply a motherâs heartfelt blessings to her child.
However, this monologue was extremely challenging to perform, both in terms of tone and the subtle changes in expression.
At that time, Yun Lan was only twenty years old, yet she managed to convey this complex maternal love and reluctance so well that it was used by Great Xia Film Academyâs teacher as a classic example.
A legend remains a legend because it is unmatched.
But calling a halt now was pointless.
Moreover, the microphone was already in Si Fuqingâs hand, and Director Qin could only continue filming.
Song Wenhua, who was in the blue team, never expected that the red team would get a scene from âEternal Flower.â
Even though it was just a warm-up game, it was still a competition, and she was very competitive.
So, when the scene was revealed, Song Wenhua was certain she would win.
Especially since the guy responsible for the fourth turn provided no useful information at all.
Si Fuqing still dared to say sheâd give it a try?
Did she think this was childâs play?
It would be impressive if Si Fuqing managed to recite one sentence within this monologue.
At that moment, Si Fuqingâs expression suddenly changed.
Though she was still a vibrant 19-year-old, her demeanor was that of a mother.
The charm of a top actor lies in their expressions and eyes.
It was still the same face, but it could instantly draw the audience into the world of the character.
âI hope you are well.â She smiled at the camera, âYou must be eighteen by now, right?â
âI hope at eighteen, you meet someone who truly loves you.â
âI hope your life is smooth and fulfilling, with all your wishes granted.â
âThough I couldnât watch you grow up, as long as you look up, you can see the star in the east. Thatâs your motherâs homeland. This world may be barren, but passion never dies. You, who work hard and live earnestly, will always be your motherâs pride.â
âIf one day, you donât achieve what you want, I hope you have the courage to start over.â
As Si Fuqing performed, some audience members stood up, their faces filled with astonishment.
The host was stunned, forgetting the next segment.
Not only did she recite all the lines, but she also perfectly recreated the scene!
At that moment, Si Fuqingâs aura changed again.
She turned slightly and slowly looked back.
Director Qinâs eyes widened, staring intently at the screen.
Those familiar with the movie âEternal Flowerâ knew this was the female leadâs final line.
It was a flashback before her death.
In a conversation with another person, she was asked if she regretted abandoning a life of wealth and working as a battlefield doctor, dying young from an illness she contracted from overwork.
âHow could I? The mountains know me, the winds and moon know me, the rivers and streams across the land know me.â She spoke softly, âDeath is not the end of life. I have no regrets.â
She looked up, smiling gently amidst the falling snow.
ââ¦â
The entire room was silent.
Even the sound of breathing disappeared.
The audience was shocked.
Without makeup or costumes, just through changes in her eyes and expressions, Si Fuqing aged herself by five years.
Her acting seemed like magic.
The male intern responsible for the fourth turn was dumbfounded, staring at Si Fuqing in a daze, lost in a state of âWho am I, where am I?â
He only provided the words âmotherâ and âstarâ correctly.
The intern thought they were destined to lose.
But now?
This was unbelievable!
âAlright.â Si Fuqing snapped out of character in an instant, returning to her lazy demeanor. âI remember this as my⦠my favorite characterâs last monologue, right?â
This sentence barely pulled everyone back from their shock.
âYes, thatâs it.â The hostâs mouth hung open. âAll-all correct! And-and an exceptional performance!â
The clip didnât include the last part, but Si Fuqing performed it flawlessly.
It wasnât just memorizing lines; it was acting!
The host secretly wiped his sweat, forcing himself to regain his composure. âTeacher Si, have you watched âEternal Flowerâ before?â
âYes.â Si Fuqing answered honestly, âIâve seen it twice.â
The first time was when the movie was edited, and Qu Lingyun let her watch it before the final review.
The second time was when it was released worldwide, and she watched it in the cinema.
