The Cannon Fodder's Brand New Life: Quick Transmigration

Yun Qi thought that death would be liberation, but unexpectedly, after death, she "luckily" bound herself to a system. So many cannon fodders in countless small worlds lived tragic lives, t...

Chapter 58 Qiao Yunqi 12

In the end, the matter could only be dropped.

The last bit of spirit wine left in the lab was quickly used up by them.

Aside from knowing it's good for the body and can quickly heal wounds, I'm not sure about its other effects... The main thing is that the spirit wine has already been used up, and it's completely gone...

What a pity! I should have just drunk it. Taking it for research would have been such a waste... Sigh... Luckily, the rest of the family shared the remaining spirit wine!

The old man thought about it and felt he had made the wisest decision ever! (Give himself a thumbs up for his cleverness! ???)

Yan Shengzhe and Yun Qi would always bring milk tea and fruit when they visited the set. After a while, the crew got used to it and would greet them. After all, they were obliged to help, and since they had signed a confidentiality agreement, no one would tell anyone about their visits.

That day, Yan Shengzhe brought Yun Qi to visit the set, bringing milk tea for everyone.

The assistant director handed him a cup of milk tea: "Director, have a cup of milk tea to calm down."

The director, still irritated, took a big gulp of the milk tea to feel better: "Where did this milk tea come from?"

The assistant director pointed over there: "Qiao Yi's husband brought their child to visit the set and prepared milk tea for everyone in the crew."

The director looked over and saw a beautiful little girl talking happily to Qiao Yi, her eyebrows dancing with excitement.

"Is that Qiao Yi's daughter?"

"Hmm. You know what, she's so pretty at such a young age, she'll definitely be a beauty when she grows up."

"!!" The director immediately perked up and walked over. "Qiao Yi, is this your daughter?"

"Yes, director, this is my daughter, Qiqi. Qiqi, this is our film crew's director."

"Hello, Director!"

"Hello! Qiqi is so polite!" The director then looked at Qiao Yi, "Qiao Yi, I need to discuss something with you. We just received a call from Shen Xu (the male celebrity) saying that his daughter can't come to the set for a cameo role. Do you think it would be possible for Qiqi to play you as a child?"

“This… Director, I don’t plan to let Qiqi enter the entertainment industry.”

"I know, they stood us up, and we couldn't find a suitable replacement right away. Luckily, Qiqi is here, so why don't we let her give it a try?"

Qiao Yi: "But..."

Yunqi: "Director, are you playing Mom as a child?! I want to play that role!"

Yan Shengzhe: "Qiqi, if you want to act, we support you. But if you don't act well, you might have to keep doing the same thing over and over again. Can you keep going then?"

Yunqi nodded, her gaze firm: "I can do it! I want to play my mother when she was little!!"

"If you weren't playing your mother as a child, would you still act in it?"

Without hesitation, Yunqi replied, "I won't act."

Yan Shengzhe nodded knowingly: "Oh~ so it was to help Mom!"

Seeing that Yan Shengzhe also nodded, Qiao Yi said to the director, "Since Qiqi wants to act, let her give it a try. However, Qiqi has never studied acting, so you should be prepared for that..."

"It's alright, it's alright!"

The director couldn't wait to call over the makeup artist: "Quick, come and do Qiqi's makeup and styling."

Qiqi cooperated throughout the process, without crying or making a fuss, and quickly finished her makeup and changed her clothes.

Yunqi followed the action director's lead and gave a slight bow...

This is the epitome of a beautiful young woman from ancient times!

"This is exactly the Little Swallow I wanted!" the director exclaimed excitedly. "Come on, let's take a few sets of costume photos!"

Yan Shengzhe and Qiao Yi were also amazed! Yan Shengzhe even took out his phone and started snapping away, taking many photos of the mother and daughter together, and proudly posted them in the family group chat: "My daughter and my wife, aren't they beautiful!!!"

Tingmei: "Cousin! If you keep showing off like this, I'm going to steal the child!"

Aunt Yan: "My daughter-in-law! My granddaughter! So beautiful!"

"..."

After showing off, Yan Shengzhe left the family group chat and continued watching Yunqi take photos.

The story revolves around Qin Feiyan (the legitimate daughter of a general, played by Qiao Yi), who grew up carefree, preferring military uniforms to feminine attire. Her parents and brother indulged her desire to learn martial arts, and her father personally taught her. Later, her father and brother died on the battlefield, and Qin Feiyan donned her uniform and resolutely went to guard the border. After the border was pacified, Qin Feiyan was named the first female general in history, preserving the prestige of the general's family. However, the man she once dreamed of marrying had already married another, and she could no longer remarry. Yun Qi, who dedicated her life to her family and country, ultimately returned to the border to guard it… and finally died there.

Yun Qi plays the role of Qin Feiyan as a child. The filming needs to include scenes of Yun Qi wearing a beautiful ancient dress to attend a palace banquet, meeting the young prince, several scenes of the two being childhood sweethearts, and scenes of her learning martial arts from her father...

Yunqi acted very well. After the director explained things to her, Yunqi could understand the meaning. She could usually get the scene right in one or two takes. If she couldn't get it right in one or two takes, it was because the director wanted to take it a step further and see if Yunqi could act even better!

Originally, a week was prepared to film Yunqi's scenes, but Yunqi managed to finish in just three days. The director praised her for her talent, saying that at such a young age, every smile and frown was just right. She is the embodiment of a noble lady from ancient times!

Qiao Yi was delighted to see her daughter receive such high praise from the director, and she could continue to accompany her mother on set for the next few days. Since she had already taken seven days off, Yunqi refused to go back to school early.

Yan Shengzhe and Qiao Yi were both helpless in the face of this, but they could only go along with her.

The director was quite pleased, and whenever there was a break between filming, he would come over to ask Yunqi to change into her costume. Once she was in ancient attire, he would take a flurry of photos, even having Qiao Yi wear the same style. The two of them standing together in the same costume were simply too eye-catching! He quickly had the makeup artist do her makeup, as he wanted to reshoot scenes of the two of them wearing the same style of clothing, showing their transformation from childhood to adulthood…

Qiao Yi's performance was also outstanding! She portrayed the heart-wrenching grief upon hearing of her father and brother's deaths, the helplessness of ultimately missing out on her childhood sweetheart, the unwavering determination to go to the battlefield, and the bittersweet yet silent blessing upon hearing that her childhood sweetheart had married someone else...

One last look back at the capital, as if to etch it into his heart, then a dashing turn with tears streaming down his face, and the silhouette of him galloping back to the scene...

Until he died in battle on the frontier, reflecting on his life: he served his family and his country, but never himself…

After filming the last scene where she dies in battle, Qiao Yi had tears in her eyes, but stubbornly refused to let them fall.

The long sword pierced her body, but Qiao Yi, supporting herself with the spear, did not fall... Her eyes gazed into the distance until she used up her last bit of strength and slowly collapsed...

"Click! Perfect!"

"Finally finished filming!!"

"Hooray!! We're done for the day!!"

Filming finally wrapped up, and the director came over to give Qiao Yi a red envelope he had prepared.

Qiao Yi remained in the position of being lying down and could not stand up.

Yunqi and Yan Shengzhe both noticed something was wrong and quickly went to help Qiao Yi up, and Qiao Yi finally recovered.

Qiao Yi: "I was just too engrossed in the moment, and I couldn't stand up for a second. I'll be fine after I calm down."

Director: "You startled me! I'm glad you're alright. We've finished filming for today. There are taboos when playing dead characters. Here's a red envelope for you; use it to ward off bad luck, and spend it all when you get back! Remember to spend it all!!"

"Okay! Thank you, director."
