Today, the filming continued, Shi TingHeng and Lin LeYang were already securely tied and listened carefully to Director Luo. They waited for Miao Muqing before they could start shooting the scene. Annie, played by Miao Muqing, was also an undercover agent. She was an accountant in the Ling Group but came from Interpol, and He Jin played by Shi Tingheng was not in the system. Therefore, they did not know each other and found each other suspicious during the investigation, so they fought.
That was exactly the scene to be filmed today, where the three of them fight for a while, and when they are done, they identify each other and form an offensive-defensive alliance. He Jin would be responsible for investigating the drug lords outside, Annie was responsible for investigating Ling’s Group, and Shi Yu, played by Lin LeYang, was responsible for finding out the traitor in the police station.
Xiao Jiashu hurried over to listen to Director Luo. Every scene shot was a teaching exercise, and like a sponge, he was absorbing the bits and pieces of acting skills at an astonishing pace.
“Is Miao Muqing is ready? We start filming once you are ready.” Director Luo said into the loudspeaker.
“Ready.” Miao Muqing gave a thumbs up.
“OK, all units, pay attention!” Director Luo made a gesture of Action.
Xiao Jiashu moved to crouch beside Director Luo and looked at the monitor with rapt attention. It didn’t take long to find himself covered by a shadow when he looked up, he noticed it was Ji Main. He was holding the cigarette in one hand and the other hand was in his pocket, staring intensely at the stage. He stood over 190 cm tall, with long legs, straight back and meticulous hair made him look indifferent and serious. However, the usual Ji Mian was like spring wind and rain[1], especially after wearing gold silk glasses, giving him a scholarly aura. He looked unlike an actor, but instead as a well-known professor of a top university. He was natural and changeable, able to grasp every role well.
[1] Spring wind and rain: a Chinese idiom to praise how good one’s education is or to praise the teacher’s teaching properly.
Xiao Jiashu stared at him and had to admit that Ji-ge was really handsome! Every look, every expression, every action was handsome! However, this was nothing. When he became serious with the acting, that kind of strong personal charisma became far-reaching, handsome and so awesome!
Ji Mian said helplessly, “What are you looking at?”
Looking at you just being handsome. Xiao Jiashu replied silently in his heart, but his skin was very thin, and he immediately looked at the stage, embarrassedly, “Nothing, I’m just going to stay here for a while.”
Ji Mian slightly smiled, his expression was not as serious as before.
The fight on the stage stopped, Lin LeYang ate NG again, and Luo Zhangwei almost broke the speaker, “CUT, CUT, CUT! Where is the martial arts instructor, take him down and practice again! You can’t even kick, was your PE class taught by a Chinese language teacher?”
By this time, Lin LeYang had already eaten 26 NG. The shooting was not going well. It could be seen that Lin LeYang himself was also very embarrassed, but had difficulty concentrating, while his agent was hiding in the resting room to scan Weibo, and stabbed the screen with his fingertips, not knowing what to do.
Lin Leyang repeatedly apologized to Luo Zhangwei, Shi Tingheng, and Miao Muqing, till his face became flushed and looked at Ji Mian, and then looked at Xiao Jiashu who was not far away. On the next take, he NG’ed again as usual. Unconsciously, several hours passed by.
“Ah! Don’t you have eyes?” Miao Muqing’s scream ended the morning shooting. She was kicked in the left face by Lin LeYang, her skin quickly became red and swollen, it looked a little serious.
Her agent hurriedly ran to check it after Director Luo shouted CUT. Director Luo scolded Lin LeYang even shouting out of “get out of the entertainment industry”. Lin LeYang was still obedient at first, but later he had tears in his eyes and tried to endure.
Ji Mianchu extinguished the cigarette and went to personally apologize to Miao Muqing.
Miao Muqing was covering her cheeks with an expression of resentment, but Ji Mian was here so she had to calm down. “It’s good to see Ji-ge’s face at this time. Young people should not be too impetuous and must be careful when filming. “
I know Sister Mu Qing, I’m really sorry!” Lin LeYang bowed quickly, and two drops of tears fell from his eyes when he bent down, wetting the ground, but left no marks on his face.
Miao Muqing bit her teeth and said nothing. If she could, she really wanted to teach Lin LeYang an unforgettable lesson. She still has to shoot a cosmetic advertisement tomorrow. Now her hurt cheek would be seen as a breach of contract. If the advertiser wanted to end the endorsement, who will pay for her loss?
Ji Mian was very helpless and was about to talk to her about compensation when Xiao Jiashu came over and said, “Sister Mu Qing, rub some medicine, it should be able to help with the swelling after sleeping for a night.”
Miao Muqing took the medicine and looked at it. It was the Xiao’s special medicine, and her face eased.
