After resting at home for three days, Ye Wanqing returned to work. This time, Ruan Xi drove to the villa to pick her up.
"In order to avoid any more accidents, I'll be your personal chauffeur from now on!"
Ruan Xi complained deeply. Who knew what kind of inhuman torture he had suffered in the past three days? It was as if he had committed some kind of heinous crime.
They did not go to the company, but Ruan Xi immediately brought Ye Wanqing to the set.
This was the base of the ancient costume drama "Di Huang" that Ye Wanqing had tried previously. From the scenery, it could be seen just how expensive this movie was.
The filming crew restored the main scenes of the play to the descriptions in the novels, not missing a single detail.
"You can watch from the side today. After I get used to it, I'll arrange some simple jobs for you."
"Alright."
After Ruan Xi finished his instructions, he made Ye Wanqing sit beside him while he himself immersed himself into the work of filming nervously.
Ruan Xi, who was fully immersed in his work, had a completely different look. When he looked at the camera that he had shot, his eyes were as sharp as a knife. He was like a sculptor who wanted to complete his work to perfection with a single slash.
The assistant had even given Ye Wanqing a brand-new script, and had even carefully pointed out which part of the movie was currently being filmed.
"Di Huang" was mainly a womanly scene, where the female lead accidentally left the direct line of the female lead behind. After suffering so much and going home, she also suffered from the jealousy and hatred of her concubine sister. She was framed and oppressed, eventually growing strong step by step, supporting the male lead in the story of dominating the world.
He had just filmed the part where the female lead and the refugees had gone to the capital together. This scene was rather difficult to film.
First, the number of refugees was relatively large, and the group performance was highly coordinated.
Secondly, the refugees in the movie were affected by the plague. They were found out when they entered the city and were then chased down by the soldiers. The female lead met the male lead while she was escaping from being hunted down.
Actors need to show real panic and urgency, but also pay attention to the lens, find their own angle to show the changes in facial expressions, which are very demanding of both actors and filmmakers.
After the recording showed the start of the filming, the city guards grabbed a group of people's hands and discovered that she was infected with the plague. Their expressions changed, and they quickly ran down from the city gate tower to kill the refugees.
Ruan Xi's camera was on the female protagonist the whole time. In her motionless state, she performed very well due to her nervousness. Because she was standing in the middle of the troop, when the soldiers started to chase after her, she bent down and carried a little girl in her arms and ran away.
But after running two steps, a roar exploded beside Ye Wanqing's ears: "Ka!"
The voice was too loud, causing Ye Wanqing's ears to buzz. Tilting his head, Ruan Xi pointed the script at the female protagonist and started to curse: "Didn't you eat? You can't even carry a child? What am I going to do to show the audience? I'm going to bury my face in the ground! The back of your head!? "
"…"
This was the first time Ye Wanqing had seen Ruan Xi's performance on set. Although it wasn't scolding her, she still felt a little afraid, and silently moved a little to the side.
And you! Did you read the script? Do you know what the plague is? Damn it! There are also refugees, you have not eaten because of the plague, but you are not zombies! The blade is already at my neck, are you not running to get reincarnated!? "
"…"
After this roar, the entire place became silent, no one dared to speak, even Ye Wanqing unconsciously slowed his breathing, afraid that if he made any sound, this fire would burn his body.
"One more time, if anyone doesn't want to do it, then scram!"
With that order, everyone started to move, but they didn't know if Ruan Xi was just too fierce, but everyone became nervous and acted even more stiffly. In the end, the scene took an entire morning.
Hearing that Ruan Xi had said OK, Ye Wanqing also heaved a sigh of relief, and all the extras collapsed onto the ground.
However, as a spectator, Ye Wanqing was very clear that Ruan Xi's rigor was correct. The final shot was extremely effective, no matter if it was the lead actor or the group performance, all of their expressions were extremely well rendered.
After this round of filming was over, Ruan Xi went to talk to the assistant director to see what the scene was like.
Ye Wanqing was tired from sitting so he wanted to walk around but he didn't expect to bump into someone the moment he turned around.
"Don't you have eyes!" The lady scolded, she raised her head and saw Ye Wanqing, she was startled: "Why are you here?"
This person's voice sounded very familiar. After looking carefully for a while, Ye Wanqing finally recognized that she was Zhou Lan.
She was wearing the clothes of a female protagonist, and due to the need for the story, her face was covered with dirty makeup. It was completely the opposite of what Ye Wanqing saw earlier, so Ye Wanqing didn't recognize her.
"Director Ruan told me to come visit the school and learn from it."
Ye Wanqing replied, his mind thinking of the scene where he was trapped in the elevator, and his heart was at a loss for words.
Without any proof, it was not that Ye Wanqing suspected that Zhou Lan had gotten someone to do something in the elevator, it was just that he could not get over her strange smile at the end of the day.
"Is that so?" Zhou Lan rolled her eyes impolitely, and didn't want to talk with Ye Wanqing any longer. She turned around and left, only leaving behind a rather haughty sentence.
After making such a mistake, Ye Wanqing was no longer in the mood to walk around. He returned to his original position and waited for Ruan Xi to return.
The remaining time passed by while Ruan Xi roared. Ye Wanqing had no choice but to admire Ruan Xi's good voice, as even his voice was not hoarse from the roar.
"OK!" "Pass!"
At two in the morning, when they heard the sound, there was a wail and everyone yawned and packed up their things to go home and sleep.
Ruan Xi brought Ye Wanqing out, and quickly ate some midnight snacks at a nearby stall to fill his stomach. Ruan Xi then threw the car keys to Ye Wanqing and lied down on the back of the car to sleep.
It was already 3 in the morning. Thinking that he had to go to Ruan Xi's house to retrieve his red wine, Ye Wanqing decided to rest on the sofa in his living room for the night.
After washing up and lying on the sofa, Ye Wanqing did not feel sleepy, but he was a little worried. Even though he knew that Gu Jinyuan was probably already asleep by this time, he still took out his phone and sent a message.
It's too late for the crew to finish work. Tonight, I sleep on the big sofa in the living room of Director Ruan's house.
After sending the message, Ye Wanqing waited for a few more minutes, but there was no reply. Then, he turned on the computer and put it to the side, before lying down to rest.
What Ye Wanqing did not expect was that in the following half a month, she was forced to live the same lifestyle as Ruan Xi.
"The 25th round of the second round of the reunion in the back garden of the Prime Minister's Residence. Begin!"
Ye Wanqing slapped his hands on the table, quickly retreated out of the mirror, and stood motionlessly by the side with a solemn expression, like a soldier on standby.
The reunion scene, which had taken almost two days, finally ended.
Ye Wanqing patted his shoulder as he packed up his things. He was so tired that he was dizzy. He just wanted to find a soft place to sleep.
He turned his head and hit something hard with his nose.
