Hollywood's Whimsical Life

Returning to 2011, life's path began to diverge from the moment he filled out his college application.

Discovering he had actually enrolled in a performance major and seeing familiar face...

Chapter 15 Filming

Chapter 15 Filming

Lu Yang is a quick shooter. Perhaps because he was shooting a martial arts blockbuster and the investment was a bit tight, with only 30 million yuan, he wanted to finish the shooting as soon as possible. He was also afraid that in the end he would run out of money before the film was finished.

After all, with such a large crew, money is spent like water every day.

Except for the first day to familiarize themselves with the crew, each department worked together as quickly as possible and slowly shot about a dozen shots.

After that, he started to go crazy, shooting dozens of shots almost every day, and the most he shot in one day was hundreds of shots.

After all, it was Gu Wei's first time shooting a movie. As he himself said, he had no experience, so he had the most cameras at the beginning.

He was very caring towards Gu Wei Luyang. Although he was under tremendous pressure during the filming, he did not forget that this was his junior fellow apprentice, and most importantly, his financial sponsor.

He gave his best guidance and hands-on teaching to Gu Wei for every shot.

The actors who played opposite Gu Wei would also communicate with him in a kind and friendly manner and give him some suggestions on how to act when Gu Wei humbly asked for advice.

"Very good, Gu Wei. Your performance today was excellent. It seems you have completely entered the role."

After Lu Yang finished filming a shot, he stood up from his chair and spoke loudly to Gu Wei in the middle of the scene.

Gu Wei was also very happy and said with a smile

"It's all thanks to the director's good training."

Then go off the court to rest.

Gu Wei has upgraded. One week after the filming of "The Sword Identity" started, his acting skills were upgraded from "entry-level" to "proficient". After another week of intense shooting, he has completely immersed himself in the role of Shen Lian and is acting more and more easily.

"Sister Fei, what delicious food do you want to eat? Share some with me."

After the show, Gu Wei came to Liu Yifei, who was eating snacks while watching other people perform in the theater.

"Here, this is for you."

As he said this, he casually took out a bag of potato chips from a large bag of snacks next to his stool and handed it to Gu Wei.

Gu Wei didn't hesitate to take it, opened it, and started chatting while eating.

Over a few days, with Gu Wei's initiative to make friends, his relationship with Liu Yifei gradually became closer.

She didn't have many scenes, and her main scenes were opposite Gu Wei. Most of the time, she was watching others act on the set.

When Gu Wei was not on set, he would come and chat with her.

Of course, Gu Wei had some feelings about Sister Tianxian. After all, this was his youth. He still remembered the stunning appearance of Xiaolongnu in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and the lovable Zhao Linger in "The Chinese Paladin".

This is the white moonlight in the hearts of many people, and Gu Wei is no exception.

But there is no need to rush this matter. Gu Wei is still a small fry. He doesn't have much money and no fame. It's like he just left the novice village. He needs to slowly kill monsters and level up, and develop slowly.

And as far as he knew, Tianxian only had a love affair with the Korean a few years later, and it was a love story that they fell in love on the set, a [third kind of love].

They broke up not long after that. It is not known whether they were really in love or just for movie promotion.

When that time comes, he can completely ruin the opportunity. If not, he can invest and play the male lead himself.

Time is on my side, don't panic, just steady yourself and make some friends first.

"Gu Wei, are you busy with filming?"

Nazha called. The classmates knew that Gu Wei was out filming. It was normal for everyone to take leave occasionally to go out and film a movie. They just didn't know whether Gu Wei was the leading actor or whether he invested in it himself.

It is impossible for Gu Wei to publicize this matter on his own.

"It's quite busy. Our director has a very tight schedule and we work non-stop every day. We don't even have time to rest."

Gu Wei replied

Since breaking up with Nazha, Nazha has contacted Gu Wei more frequently.

After this semester, Nazha became increasingly busy, and Gu Wei also had his own things to do.

They don't see each other every day, but when Nazha is free, she will send a message or call Gu Wei to chat, complain to him about how tiring work is, or when some greasy boss looked at her with lustful eyes when she was out at an event.

Gu Wei would also tell her about what happened around him. After breaking up, not only did they not fall out, but their relationship seemed to have become even closer.

It's like the two of them started out as friends, then switched to lovers halfway through, and now they're just jumping back again, and the relationship is getting deeper and deeper.

To put it simply, neither of them treats the other as an outsider, especially Nazha.

"The TV series I'm starring in is going to premiere tomorrow. Don't forget to watch it and see how I perform."

Nazha said happily

"Don't worry, don't worry. You've told me so many times that my ears are callused. [Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky], right? It premiered on Mango TV. I'll never forget it."

Gu Wei replied helplessly.

This is Nazha’s first time acting in a TV series, and it’s about to be aired, so she is still very nervous.

Gu Wei was not surprised by this, but based on his understanding of Nazha, you don’t have to look at her acting skills in a play, her beauty is the only thing that matters.

"My girlfriend."

Gu Wei made the call right in front of Liu Yifei, without avoiding her at all. She listened to the entire conversation.

Gu Wei put down the phone and raised his head

“No, a classmate from school.”

Liu Yifei smiled maliciously

"Classmate, female classmate, right?"

"Yes, she is a female classmate, and she is my ex-girlfriend." Gu Wei said with a frank smile.

"Ex-girlfriend, my ex-girlfriend keeps contacting me. Are you guys going to get back together?"

Liu Yifei was surprised. She didn't expect Gu Wei to be so frank.

"No, can we still be friends after breaking up? It wasn't anyone's fault that we broke up. It was just that the timing was not right and we were not suitable for each other at that time. If we both took a step back and returned to the stage of friends, we would get along better."

Gu Wei explained

"Wow, that's so profound."

"Sister Yifei, excuse me for asking, what are your requirements for your future significant other?"

Gu Wei looked into her eyes and said slowly

"As for me, I don't have any requirements. I just want him to be taller, more handsome, and most importantly, have a spiritual connection with me.

The rest is not important.”

Liu Yifei thought and spoke slowly

Gu Wei curled his lips after hearing this, thinking, "You have the final say on who has a tacit understanding with you. Is it possible that only Koreans have a tacit understanding with you?"

"Sister Yifei, I think we have a good understanding, what do you think?"

Liu Yifei looked him up and down and said with disdain

"You? A little brat."

She knew that Gu Wei was born in 1992 and was five years younger than her, so when they chatted and joked with each other, she just treated him as a little brother.

"A woman three years older than a man will bring him a golden brick, a woman five years older than a man will bring him a princess. Age is not a problem. You laugh at your brother's young age, but you don't know that he is in good health."

Gu Wei teased her

"No, I don't want to know about my brother's good deeds. You should just go and deceive other ignorant girls with your endless stream of rhymes."

"You are so boring as a girl. You don't know how good your brother is, but I know how good my sister and aunt are."

Liu Yifei was surprised

"Sister, forget it. Do you still want an aunt?"

"Yes, Auntie is so nice. She is very caring at her age. You can even tell her: Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore!"

"screw you!"

Liu Yifei burst into laughter at Gu Wei's amusement.
