The next morning, she had a scene indoors with her on-screen brother and sister-in-law.
The role of the sister-in-law has relatively few scenes, and it can be filmed in two or three days, so we're rushing to finish filming it.
"This is our first collaboration, and I hope we can have a pleasant working relationship."
"Please take good care of me, Teacher Wang and Teacher Chen."
The actress who plays the sister-in-law, Ms. Wang, is in her forties and not very famous in the entertainment industry. She is married with children and occasionally takes on small roles.
Mr. Chen is in his thirties and is already a highly accomplished actor in the film and television industry.
Although both are veteran actors, Yun Shudai felt no pressure working together.
It was a family scene, the first time the three of them had worked together, and they filmed one scene in one go, almost in one take.
"Thank you for your hard work, teachers. The effect was very good this time. The next scene is in one hour."
"OK."
The plot of this drama is full of twists and turns and has a large number of characters, so apart from the scenes of the male and female leads, most of the scenes filmed these past two days were for actors with fewer scenes. They were all filmed together and the shoot was completed in just a few days.
It won't interfere with the schedules of other actors.
So, during the few days I was on set, I hardly had any scenes with the male and female leads; I mostly filmed supporting roles.
Yun Shudai has a relatively free time in the evenings. She sent the picture to Brother Zhang last time, and he said he would let the producer take a look, but there has been no news since. She doesn't know if it has been approved or not.
...
In the county town of that era
He Wan wore a hat and put on makeup. She was in a house in the family quarters of the county's agricultural machinery station.
An old man in his fifties handed He Wan an abacus: "Comrade, see if you can exchange this for some grain."
He Wan originally wanted to collect some old things, but she didn't expect the old man to give her an abacus. This abacus probably isn't worth much.
The old man noticed her hesitation and quickly said, "This abacus of mine is made of rosewood and has been passed down from the previous generation. This side is inlaid with gold, so it's worth some money."
Upon hearing that the patterned sequins were made of gold, He Wan nodded: "Alright, I'll take them. I have flour, rice, chickens, ducks, geese, pork, and brown sugar here. What do you want?"
"Just some rice, flour, and brown sugar will do."
He Wan looked up at his home. To say that it was bare was no exaggeration. She couldn't bear to see such a pitiful old man, so she took out twenty catties of rice, twenty catties of flour, and two catties of brown sugar from her bamboo basket.
After thinking for a moment, I gave him another pound of pork.
Looking at the large amount of grain, the old man repeatedly said, "Comrade, you've given me too much. I..."
“Old comrade, these are all the money you got from trading your abacus, keep them.”
Although the abacus isn't worth much, the gold is worth a few hundred or a thousand yuan. If Lao Yun can get her a few hundred more kilograms of grain, it's not a bad deal.
...
"Hey, do you want to draw a profile picture? I'd like you to draw one for me."
"Go ahead and answer it."
Yun Shudai considered it for a moment and quoted two hundred.
The fan sent a surprised emoji: "Honey, other people charge fifty or eighty yuan for a profile picture, yours is too expensive. I'll find someone else to do it. Sorry to bother you."
Yun Shudai was a little annoyed and asked An'an, "Have you had your portrait drawn?"
"Yes, I did look for one. My current cartoon avatar was drawn by someone I found on a short video platform."
How much is it?
"Sixty, that's pretty fast, she submitted the manuscript to me in half a day."
Yun Shudai gave an "oh" and didn't say anything more. If that was the case, she would stop taking portraits. Although they were quick to draw, the money was less. Besides, she was good at scene illustrations. She would take more complex ones from now on, although they would take longer, the price would be higher.
She's not the type to be impatient for quick success; she just wants to do what she wants and doesn't want too much trouble.
