After the last shot was filmed, most of the cast and crew members on set had tears in their eyes.
The wrap-up of filming should have been a cause for celebration, but everyone seemed to have lost their enthusiasm.
Wen Yan was the most upset.
Because she had the most scenes with another little girl since filming began, she devoted herself entirely to the role.
She is now so immersed in the role and the environment that she can't extricate herself from it.
Zhou Junye, Jing Hao, and Wang Che all came to comfort Wen Yan.
Wen Yan didn't want to be the center of attention under these circumstances. Although she was upset and couldn't get over it, she still smiled and waved her hand.
As she took the tissue Qin Yulong offered to wipe her tears, she said to her concerned colleagues:
"It's okay, I'm fine. Let me cry for a while, I'll be okay soon."
To avoid embarrassment, she kept talking: "Sigh, this is such a draining situation. I wish such cruel things didn't exist."
Wang Che, who was standing nearby, advised her, "Next time, film a happier story, don't film this kind of internal conflict."
“That won’t do,” Wen Yan said, sobbing twice as she thought of the movie she wanted to make next. “Many of the thought-provoking things that need to be dissected and shown to the public are simply not enjoyable. This isn’t a commercial film; we can’t be that entertaining.”
Zhou Junye also sighed: "Actually, I'm really grateful to you all this time. The pay you received was just average, but since you all came, I hope the feedback won't let our efforts go to waste."
Jing Hao nodded in agreement: "If it can really contribute to the protection of endangered animals and the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature, then that would be a meritorious deed. To be honest, this is the first time I've made a film of this nature, and I've truly experienced the significance of film dissemination. It's good that filming has wrapped up; I look forward to the film's release as soon as possible. Let's go take some photos and have a group photo."
Wen Yan had almost composed herself.
The assistant director used a megaphone to gather everyone together for a group photo.
Looking at everyone gathered together, Wen Yan suddenly had an idea.
"Director, I have a suggestion."
"What suggestion?"
"Our film has end credits, right? You should include something like 'Protect endangered animals' in them."
Zhou Junye nodded: "Yes, including some real data, which I will put in the end credits."
"Then let's add one more thing. We'll write them down by hand, then take photos and create an image. This isn't just for our cast and crew; we'll appeal to the whole society. We'll collect everyone's 'wishes' and then compile a summary. Do you think that's feasible?"
"That's fantastic!" Zhou Junye excitedly patted Wen Yan on the shoulder. "How come I didn't think of that? This is a really good idea. It's also a great way for us to promote ourselves. Then you guys in the main production team can post updates online to gather more information and increase the discussion! We must emphasize again and again that pangolin scales have absolutely no medicinal value and can be completely replaced by other medicinal materials."
Without further ado, the assistant director immediately found a huge screen, and almost everyone wrote down what they wanted to say on it.
Finally, everyone held up the banner covered with slogans and took a group photo.
As soon as the photos were released, Wen Yan, Zhou Junye, and other actors immediately posted updates on social media.
They all brought along the #LastPangolin#
Topics such as #ProtectEndangeredAnimals##ProtectingTheEnvironmentIsEveryoneResponsible##RefuseToEatWildAnimals## are often low-profile.
Wen Yan has the most fans and the greatest influence.
As soon as she posted her update, the comment section was instantly flooded with comments.
Wow, Yan Yan posted an update again, looks like it led to...
"Yay! Another movie wrapped up filming, soon there will be a new film to watch. It's just a pity it's a short movie, I'll probably finish watching it in a few tens of minutes."
"This topic is killing me, I really can't watch these things, they make me so sad, but I absolutely support this kind of public service announcement! I've already written down what I wanted to say. (Attached JPG)"
'Image JPG'
'Image +1'
'Image+'
'Me too, me too'
"My goodness, in the time it took me to write one sentence, the comment section already has tens of thousands of comments! I doubt the production team can even collect them all. With so many pictures, will mine even be selected?"
Wen Yan happened to be online, and she replied to this comment.
@'Social Anxiety Today Too': Every sincere sentiment will be appreciated.
'Socially anxious today too': 'Ahhhhh, my goddess noticed me! I really love her, I support her!'
Wen Yan didn't reply again, nor did she continue reading the comments, because she still needed to recruit more people.
The combined efforts of the production team and herself were too limited, so she sent messages to Jiang Wanwan and Shen Jinghe.
Jiang Wanwan happened to be free at the moment, and she replied to Wen Yan instantly.
'Is filming over?'
Wen Yan: 'Yes, quick, please help me forward this, please!'
Jiang Wanwan: 'It's all better now.'
Wen Yan: '??? So fast! What kind of hand speed is that?'
Jiang Wanwan: 'Nothing special, just that the internet is fast.'
Wen Yan: 'Waaah, you're laughing at my 2G network!'
Jiang Wanwan: 'Looks like your internet connection is really bad. Go to an internet cafe when you're done. Oh, wait, you don't need to go online, just go find your older brother.'
Wen Yan: 'What's wrong?'
Jiang Wanwan: 'If I'm not busy, I'll tell you slowly, but I have to start work soon.'
