Hengdian, the crew of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"There are several special scenes for the three of you in the next two days." Director Wu said, holding a script outline.

Sitting in front of him were Zhang Yuan, Wang Lujiang and Peng Yuyan.

"What's this special method?" Zhang Yuan asked puzzledly.

"You three are going to drink wine and visit brothels together."

The three of them looked at each other.

well!

"Before you start shooting, try to get the feel for it first, especially the feeling of three people eating and playing together." Director Wu said, "The brothel scene needs to be rented, and it also requires a lot of extras, which is quite expensive. Try to get the feel for it, and it will be done in a few takes."

After chatting with the director, the three of them walked out.

"Can we make some arrangements for the evening?" Teacher Wang Lujiang mentioned.

"Let's go to a restaurant and have a drink?" Peng Yuyan regretted it a little after he said it. Zhang Yuan's alcohol tolerance was really amazing.

"What are you eating for!" Zhang Yuan interrupted sharply: "It's just a brothel show, why are you eating?"

"There are no brothels now."

"Who said there aren't any?" Zhang Yuan pointed to a street with lights saying "Hair Shampoo Shop" not far away, as well as several nightclubs further away.

Where there are people, there is the underworld, and where there is the underworld, there must be places of morality.

Hengdian is a place where all kinds of people come and go, so how could it not be a place of romance?

"Come, listen to my command."

"Today we are ordered to go out to fight the chickens. Let's go!"

On the other side, there is a treasure island thousands of kilometers away.

Taipei, the crew of "May Love".

The heroine played by Liu Xixi is named Zhao Xuan, and is always called Xuanxuan in the film.

According to the setting, she is an intern actor in a Peking Opera troupe from Harbin, Heilongjiang.

However, Liu Xixi's mother, Liu Xiaoli, is from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. She is a suitable professional and has returned to her roots.

"Cut!" called for a stop from director Xu Xiaoming, who has directed many famous films.

Such as the TV versions of "Huo Yuanjia" and "Chen Zhen", and the later "The Warring States".

"Bolin, Xixi, the scenes in Formosa Island are almost over. We will move to Harbin tomorrow."

The schedule is 15 days in total and it goes by very quickly. The last few days of shooting will be in Northeast China.

The crew needs to shoot some snow scenes while the ice and snow have not completely melted.

"Okay." Liu Qianqian nodded in agreement, but she felt a little melancholy in her heart.

"You've been in a daze these days. What's wrong?" Liu Xiaoli also noticed that something was wrong with her daughter, so she stepped forward to ask.

"Nothing." She didn't answer and evaded the question.

To be precise, she has been feeling melancholy, lost and empty inside recently.

This feeling seems to be the first time in my life.

At first, she had never been to Taiwan before and was in the mood to travel and relax.

Of course, the crew’s shooting schedule is very tight, so there is no time for travel.

In addition, I was unfamiliar with the place and did not have enough time to get acquainted with the crew.

It was only 15 days in total, and we said goodbye almost as soon as we met.

So there are new faces around her every day.

Even Chen Bolin, who has the most scenes with her, is not very familiar with her.

It's far from the collaboration and friendship that took months to develop during the production of "The Story of a Noble Family", "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" and the half-filmed "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

On the set of "May Love", she had almost no private communication with any colleagues except her mother.

They are all from Taiwan, and she is the only one from the mainland. They can't even eat, drink or chat with each other.

And after the novelty of her first filming wore off, she realized that she had come to the crew too hastily and was not prepared at all.

I didn't understand the script, the characters, or the story, and it was really uncomfortable to just shoot it this way.

In fact, in addition to the 15 days of filming on the set, since her character is a Peking Opera actor, Liu Qianqian also had to receive individual Peking Opera training and then reshoot some professional shots.

However, all of these contents were arranged after the release of "Legend of Sword and Fairy". The crew of "May Love" also followed the standard practice of the Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television circles. Not a minute was wasted. They shot first and edited first, and then shot and supplemented later.

The time was tight, the task was heavy, and there were no friends to play with, which made her, who was originally cheerful, become silent.

She also felt that her performance in this drama was not her best because she was always distracted during the filming.

For example, when filming a scene in a fast food restaurant, when she picked up a Coke, she would think of how Zhang Yuan would take her to KFC every Thursday for a bite to eat.

But after arriving in Taiwan, she completely lost her appetite for fast food.

Like this day, she had a scene where she looked into the eyes of Chen Bolin.

At that time, Chen Bolin was only in his early twenties, and Liu Qianqian had bright eyes, white teeth and beautiful features. After looking at her several times, he felt a little shy.

When the other person grinned, she also grinned.

But afterwards, she thought about how many scenes Zhang Yuan and I had filmed where we had to look at each other, but I had never been shy.

Could it be that in his eyes, I am not pretty enough, so he has no reaction at all.

I am reminded of the kissing scene in the TV series “The Legend of Sword and Fairy”.

My face turned as red as an apple and almost smoked, but the other party had no reaction and looked normal.

Is it true that I am not attractive to him?
She didn't know that although Zhang Yuan was only 40 years old, he had a heart of .

Not to mention eye contact and kissing, even if you take off all your clothes and stand in front of him, he will just smile and definitely won't smoke.

This has nothing to do with attraction, but with knowing how to hide yourself after having seen so much.

As she thought about it, Liu Qianqian, who was usually extremely confident, almost broke down.

The more I think about it, the more aggrieved.

It was time for a scene where the hero and heroine were walking on the highest overhead railway bridge in Formosa.

Under the railway sleepers is an abyss several dozen meters high. When you walk up, you can see the hollow ground under your feet.

When the wind blew, it seemed as if it was going to carry people away.

As the male lead Chen Bolin stepped onto the bridge, his legs went weak. He squatted on the ground, holding onto the sleepers, gasping for breath. It took him a long time to recover, and only after the director comforted him was he able to continue filming.

Liu Qianqian was actually afraid too, but she had a characteristic: she was stubborn and conscious of her reputation.

Just think about it, she even dived into the icy pond in the middle of winter while working on the set of “Legend of Sword and Fairy”. She was just being stubborn and didn’t want to be laughed at for being delicate.

So even though she was a little afraid of heights, she still plucked up the courage to go up, and did not forget to laugh at Chen Bolin who was weak in the legs.

"Bullshit, you're the timid one, you're the one who's afraid." Chen Bolin immediately retorted.

Liu Qianqian looked at the other person's face-conscious look like a high school boy, and couldn't help but think of Zhang Yuan again.

"If he were here, he wouldn't be afraid."

"Well, he doesn't seem to be afraid of anything."

"Besides..." Xixi thought: "He should be able to keenly discover that I am actually pretending to be strong."

"Then he quietly came forward and comforted me secretly without letting anyone else know."

Thinking of this, a rare warmth arose in my heart.

But she shook her head violently: "I don't want to be that shameless guy."

After the crew arrived in Harbin, Liu Xiaoli developed a special affection for the hometown where she was born, and kept asking Liu Qianqian to talk about the streets and scenes that she was familiar with in her childhood.

Liu Qianqian felt very happy to come to the place where her beloved mother lived and to get to know her other side of her mother besides being her own mother.

It seems that my mother is happy and she feels the same way.

But at this moment, she remembered again.

I don't seem to know Zhang Yuan at all. Apart from our contact on the crew, I have no idea what he does or what he likes to do.

Am I too selfish, only caring about my own happiness?

Soon after, the crew started filming.

The most important scene in Harbin is when Liu Xixi rides a bicycle and chases Chen Bolin who is leaving on the bus.

In this scene, she had to hold up a huge picture frame with both hands.

It was snowy and there was ice on the ground, and I let go of the handle with my hands... the result was predictable.

In the first shot, as soon as she let go of the handlebars, the bicycle wheel under Liu Qianqian slid to the right, and she lost her balance.

Anyone with experience knows that if you fall on ice, you're not just going to fall down; you're also slippery.

As soon as she fell, she slipped out, sliding more than ten meters and barely stopped after hitting a snow pile.

Fortunately, it was cold and I was wearing a down jacket.

Unfortunately, she was only wearing a pair of jeans.

By the time the crew helped her up from the ground... while they were running over to help her, three or four people in the crew fell down. You can tell how slippery the ground was.

After being helped up, Liu Qianqian could only walk with a limp.

The entire outside of my right leg, from knee to ankle, was covered in bruises.

She gasped, while Liu Xiaoli was heartbroken and shed tears. Later, the method of this scene was changed, with Liu Qianqian being carried on a tricycle, pretending that she was riding a tricycle, but in fact there were two big brothers pedaling hard below, and only then was the scene barely finished.

In the evening, return to the residence.

Liu Xiaoli asked the hotel for a lot of ice to apply cold compress to her daughter.

After a few hours, it still hadn't subsided and was still slightly swollen.

When I took a shower with hot water, the pain was so severe that I shivered.

Just like in the previous days, she hugged her legs alone and rested her pointed chin on her oval face on her knees.

He gently stroked his bruised calves with his hands.

"If he were here, he would definitely help me press it."

I thought about how I fell down during the day and was helpless and unable to get up on the ice.

He struggled with his hands and feet, but was still like a flipping turtle, unable to stand up on his own.

She had experienced that feeling of panic and helplessness before.

"If he were here, he would definitely rush over and carry me to the side to rest."

As the saying goes, distance produces beauty.

The reason is that human beings are always confident about what they have already obtained.

But if you are away from it or lose it for a while, you will miss it terribly.

There are many people who abandon their wives after becoming rich overnight, and only when they become poor again will they miss the person they married.

Humans are very cheap.

When people feel lonely, they tend to reflect.

"Did I go too far?"

"He is just with Sister Cheng Hao..." Thinking of this, Liu Qianqian's face turned red, and then she said indignantly: "Isn't it just sleeping?"

"I also slept with boys in kindergarten."

"Everyone is fighting to sleep next to me!"

The way she sleeps is different from Zhang Yuan’s.

Her "sleep" is a noun, while Zhang Yuan and Cheng Hao's "sleep" is a verb, the kind that lasts all night.

He took out his cell phone, opened the text messages, created a new message, and selected Zhang Yuan's number.

"What are you doing..."

After typing these words, she hesitated for a while, then deleted them all one by one.

The stubbornness in her character made her give up the idea of ​​taking the initiative to show goodwill at the last moment.

I put on my headphones and played the song "Always Quiet" that I got from Zhang Yuan.

"The love I give you has always been quiet."

"In exchange for your occasional concern..."

She thought, it seemed as if Zhang Yuan was always quietly by my side, and would appear at the first time when I needed him.

"What on earth is he doing these days?"

"He must be very bored on the set without me here."

"Forget it. When I go back in a few days, I won't give him a nasty look."

She touched her cheek that had been kissed, and her face gradually turned red. Then she lifted the quilt, covered herself in it, and swung her legs quickly while laughing.

After hiding in the quilt and going crazy for a while, she finally lifted the white duvet and looked at the ceiling with a smile.

"Hehe, he must be like me, thinking about me so much that he can't sleep in his bed."

Admittedly, there is always a small gap between reality and imagination.

As for Zhang Yuan’s current condition, it cannot be said to be exactly the same as Liu Qianqian’s imagination, but it can be said to have nothing to do with it.

"Annie!"

"I can not lose you!"

In the nightclub, Zhang Yuan was holding Xiaoli in his left hand and Xiaohong in his right hand, and was singing loudly with the microphone.

"Annie!"

"I can't forget you!"

"Brother, you're not howling, you're singing really well." The young lady next to him praised him.

Another young lady handed over a cup of Royal Salute, whose authenticity was unknown.

"You drink too." Zhang Yuan also brought a cup for Xiaohong.

"it is good!"

"It tastes good, or it sounds good."

“It tastes good and sounds good too.”

"It's all good, it's all good."

Zhang Yuan leaned back on the sofa. Here, he regained the feeling of accompanying developers for social events in his previous life.

"I, Zhang, have traveled far and wide, relying on my ability in both literature and martial arts, which makes me different from others."

"Not only eating, drinking and having fun, but also snow, moon, wind and flowers!"

"Okay, Boss Zhang, how about you write a poem?"

"What poem?"

"We need wind, meat, hot pot, fog, beauties and donkeys."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Zhang Yuan glanced at Wang Lujiang and Peng Yuyan, who were already dazed and drunk.

"Get up, get up."

“Drink together and sing together!”

Zhang Yuan patted the two on the cheek.

"Keep playing music, keep dancing!"

They kept going on until three o'clock in the morning, when the three of them finally staggered out of the Victoria nightclub.

Of course, they rejected the ladies' request for overnight stay.

Although Xiaohong, Xiaoli, Xiaozi, Xiaolan and others said that if it was Zhang Yuan or Peng Yuyan, they could charge less or even nothing.

Zhang Yuan refused, and Peng Yuyan also refused.

However, the two refused for different reasons.

Zhang Yuan refused because Cheng Hao had raised his taste in women.

A charming lady can kill these mediocre girls in seconds with just one flirtation.

It’s not that you are not good enough, it’s just that my requirements are a bit high!
Peng Yuyan refused, although he also looked down on these young ladies who were posing coquettishly, but he was attracted by the forty-year-old mother who still had charm.

The old habit happened again.

In ancient times, talented young men with literary talent and good looks could get the love of the most beautiful courtesan in brothels for free.

The same is true in modern times.

But this made Wang Lujiang very depressed.

He has no discount.

I can refuse it, but you can’t refuse to give it to me!
This made him angry.

“She always just leaves her phone number.”

"She never let me take her home..."

"I heard that you once fell in love with her."

"I was also unable to extricate myself..."

On the empty street, three people were walking and singing. One of them was from Taiwan and the other was from Singapore, so most of the songs they sang tonight were from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

"Have you found the feeling of filming?"

"Found it. This feels so good!" Peng Yuyan laughed like a 200-pound kid, because he used to weigh more than 200 pounds.

"I don't think we've found it yet." Teacher Wang Lujiang beside him smiled evilly, "We can keep looking."

"Hehe, keep going." Peng Yuyan immediately responded.

Zhang Yuan thought to himself, you two are not paying the bill, but you are indeed in high spirits.

I can't take the nightclub receipts to Boss Cai for reimbursement.

How to write the heading?
Bathing and foot therapy are also a form of health care.

drop by drop...

Just then, the cell phone suddenly rang.

After picking it up and taking a look, Zhang Yuan rubbed his eyes.

"Director Feng?" (End of this chapter)
