"Brother?" Zhang Yimou looked confused.
"My new brother." Zhang Qiurui pointed at Zhang Guorong.
"Oh! Let's start filming when we're ready."
"A Chinese Ghost Story, Scene 56, Scene 1, Ike."
This scene was filmed when Ning Caichen was hiding in the bathtub and couldn't hold his breath. Nie Xiaoqian was afraid that her grandmother would find out that Ning Caichen was there, so she gave Ning Caichen some air.
As the script supervisor played cards, the set suddenly became quiet, leaving only the dim light on the set and the sound of ripples on the water.
The camera slowly moves in and focuses on a corner of the dark bathtub.
Ning Caichen curled up in a large wooden bathtub, his face flushed from holding his breath for a long time, his brows furrowed. After he could no longer hold his breath, he slowly floated to the surface. He was a little surprised to see the painting in front of him, which was the one he wanted to buy but couldn't.
At this time, grandma smelled the scent of human presence, and Nie Xiaoqian became anxious and deliberately tore her wedding dress.
Xiaoqing refused to give in and walked to the bathtub to check, so Nie Xiaoqian deliberately splashed water on Xiaoqing.
At this time, Ning Caichen surfaced to breathe again. Nie Xiaoqian leaned over, kissed Ning Caichen directly, pressed him into the water, and breathed to Ning Caichen.
In the original novel, there was a shot where Nie Xiaoqian's back was completely exposed, but in this life, Zhang Qiurui played Nie Xiaoqian, so this shot was gone.
In the underwater shot, Nie Xiaoqian's long hair spread out in the water, swaying with the waves like seaweed. Her red wedding dress appears more vivid in the water, but also slightly transparent due to the buoyancy of the water, adding a bit of temptation and fairy spirit.
Ning Caichen was suddenly kissed by Nie Xiaoqian. His eyes widened and he forgot to react for a moment.
"Click! Passed, prepare for the next one." Zhang Yimou looked at the monitor behind the scenes and nodded with satisfaction.
After the first kissing scene was filmed smoothly, Zhang Qiurui and Zhang Guorong appeared to be more natural and in harmony with each other in the subsequent kissing and passionate scenes.
During the filming process, the two often discussed roles together, exchanged experiences, and strived to do every detail to the best. The tacit understanding and friendship between them continued to deepen.
After Zhang Qiurui called Zhang Guorong brother on the set, others also followed Zhang Qiurui in calling Zhang Guorong brother, and the title of Zhang Guorong brother seemed to be confirmed.

Brother Xiao Ma, played by Cheng Huimin, is loyal and righteous, and is willing to go through fire and water for his brothers.
Today's Hong Kong is full of gangs, and the loyalty between men is more precious than gold. Cheng Huimin's role as Xiao Ma directly won him a group of loyal male fans.
Especially those who have been involved in gangs, regard Cheng Huimin as an idol and role model.
Zhang Guorong and Simon Yam also made their debut in the film industry with "A Better Tomorrow".
Although Zhang Qiurui did not play many roles in "A Better Tomorrow", she is not only a director, but also a winner of the Best Film and Best Director awards at Cannes and Berlin. After the release of "A Better Tomorrow", Zhang Qiurui received no less attention than Cheng Huimin.
Even many people who don’t know Zhang Qiurui are attracted by her appearance.
Zhang Qiurui looks gentle and generous, with a look of tenacity and talent between her eyebrows.
Her beauty is different from the traditional sweetness or glamour, but a unique charm that combines wisdom and artistry.
In the movie "A Better Tomorrow", although her role is limited, every time she appears, she seems to have a halo that cannot be ignored.
Thanks to this movie, Di Long's popularity has also soared to a new level.
However, this is all later.
..........
As time passed, it was soon the end of November.
This day, somewhere on the set.
"Arong, the role of Song Zijie you played in "A Better Tomorrow" has become very popular. Now the number of film invitations you have received has increased three or four times compared to before." Cheng Shufen said to Zhang Guorong excitedly.
Cheng Shufen also had several copies of the latest movie scripts in her hands.
“I never expected that A Better Tomorrow would generate such a huge response.
My sister is really good at promoting people. Sister Fen, you didn't accept any acting offers for me for next year, did you? " Zhang Guorong smiled slightly, his eyes showing both surprise and indifference.
“You have found a good sister.
You said I wouldn't take on any role without your consent." Cheng Shufen thought about how Zhang Guorong had just filmed "A Chinese Ghost Story" and had already recognized a famous international director as her sister. This made her sigh at Zhang Qiurui's luck.
Since his debut, Star Ocean produced his first album, which made him popular in Hong Kong, and later promoted him internationally. He also won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, and was the first person in Asia to win this award.
While filming a movie, I got to know another internationally renowned director as my sister.
With the protection of Xingchen Haihai and Director Zhang, his acting career will be like a flight with wings, flying high and far.
