Chapter 273 The filmmakers are here to film
After the food factory went into production, Xie Yun called Qian Gaoyun to inquire about the progress of the filming.
Qian Gaoyun's second play, titled "Women in the Mountains," was about the Majiagou incident. She had previously discussed the details with Qian Gaoyun and included the food factory in the play.
"Have you filmed the food factory scene yet?"
"Yes. We found a biscuit factory and borrowed their space to shoot."
"Oh, forget it. Our food factory is complete and production has begun. I thought if you haven't filmed it yet, you could come and film it here."
"Wait a moment, I'll discuss it with the director."
Qian Gaoyun hung up the phone and ran to consult the director. The director thought about it and decided it would be best to reshoot the scene. After all, the food factory was truly built for the rescued lesbians. However, since they had previously borrowed someone else's location for the shoot, they still had to let them know.
The director contacted the food factory where the film had been filmed previously to explain the situation. They were very accommodating, saying they were lending the location purely to support their revolutionary brothers, asking nothing in return. Whether they used the space or not was irrelevant. This was the style and confidence of our state-owned factory.
After the discussion, Qian Gaoyun called Xie Yun again and said, "Let's get ready and go right away."

Within two days, the film crew arrived in a large truck.
The conditions on the set are quite difficult now.
Qian Gaoyun went back to Taoyuan Commune to go back to her mother's home. She was so happy that she jumped out of the car and rushed towards Xie Yun. Then, she saw Shao Xiang beside Xie Yun.
"mom?!"
Qian Gaoyun changed direction halfway and rushed over to hug Shao Xiang.
"Mom, why are you here?"
Shao Xiang hugged her, then moved a little further away and looked her up and down. Very good. After not seeing her for many years, the child was still as carefree and sunny as before, even better than in the photo. She probably didn't suffer much, so she felt relieved.
"I'm retired, and Binbin needs help, so I came to help."
"That's great! Mom, I missed you so much."
Shao Xiang snorted and laughed, "I didn't realize you missed me."
Xie Yun said: "I didn't notice it either."
Qian Gaoyun was very arrogant, "Humph! How could I let you find out? I think my mother is thinking about it in her heart and won't show it."
Although he didn't know whether it was true or not, Shao Xiang was really happy to hear it.
Xie Yun let the mother and daughter kiss each other, and then he went forward to greet the other members of the crew, "Welcome everyone."
Director Zhao Lining smiled and said, "You must be Deputy County Magistrate Xie Yun, right? My name is Zhao Lining, and I'm the director of this film. I often hear Gao Yun mention you."
"Really? How did she praise me?"
"She praised you for being thoughtful."
Xie Yun: "...That doesn't sound like a compliment to me."
Zhao Lining laughed out loud. "It doesn't sound like it, but she is definitely praising you."
"Only Qian Gaoyun's words can have this effect."
After a few pleasantries, Xie Yun introduced her to Shao Xiang: "This is Gao Yun's mother, Comrade Shao Xiang. She is of high moral character. After retiring, she came to us to volunteer to help women. She is now helping out at the food factory. We are a new factory, and everything is just beginning. If you need anything during this filming, please contact her. And our factory director, Comrade Ren Xiuzhen, can also help you."
Zhao Lining said: "Thank you very much. We will try our best not to cause any trouble to you."
"What's the big deal? Your film will inspire so many lesbians! We're hoping for more films like this, and we'll have no problem hosting you a few more times."
"You said it! Let's shoot more movies here."
"I couldn't ask for more."

The crew was stunned when they arrived at the food factory.
I thought it was a small factory, but I didn't expect it to be so large! The factory buildings and factory area are all brand new.
Moreover, the spirits of these women workers are amazing! They have clearly moved on from the past and started a new life.
Zhao Lining said to Qian Gaoyun, "We made the right decision to come here!"
When they changed into work clothes and entered the interior for a tour under the guidance of Ren Xiuzhen and Shao Xiang, they were hit by a new wave of shock.
Zhao Lining said, "It feels like modernization has been achieved here. This production line is the first time I've seen one! It's fully automated!"
Ren Xiuzhen smiled and said, "This is a custom-made machine. Our research institute developed it specifically for the food factory. It's something we haven't seen before!"
She couldn't hide the pride on her face.
It just so happens that after filming this movie, their food factory will become famous throughout the country.
Zhao Lining looked at Ren Xiuzhen and asked her, "Would you like to appear? I think we can add a character at the end. A young intellectual who, after learning about the women's liberation movement, rushes from the city to help them. We don't have many shots, but we need an image that reflects the mutual support among women. We already have one, so we'll add another. The more women helping each other, the better! I think you'd be a great character."
"OK!"
Ren Xiuzhen agreed readily.
Oh my god! Make a movie! Even a cameo would be great! When the internet becomes popular, she'll do some online archaeology and dig up the movies she starred in when she was young!
Zhao Lining added, "I just heard Deputy County Chief Xiao Xie say that this food factory was built on your initiative. You're still so young, which is truly remarkable. As the factory director, I hope we can have the opportunity to make a movie based on you in the future. We'll film your struggle story to inspire more female comrades."
Shao Xiang glanced at her and smiled without saying anything. This girl is also a master at pumping up energy!
Ren Xiuzhen smiled brightly, "I will definitely work hard. But let me be honest, I came up with the idea for the food factory, and I came up with the product, but Deputy County Chief Xie and the county leaders contributed more to the entire factory construction process, as did my fellow educated youth at the training camp, Aunt Shao Xiang. Everyone contributed, and it would have been impossible for me alone to do it."
Zhao Lining said: "This is perfectly normal. No factory is built by one person. There are so many things involved in building a factory that it's simply impossible for one person to do it. But you were the first to come up with this idea, which is very important."
After praising Ren Xiuzhen, Zhao Lining immediately organized the filming.
We need to shoot both exterior and interior scenes. This factory is so great and needs to be properly displayed.

Shao Xiang took the time to call Qian Daguang, "Old Qian, guess who I met?"
"Who did you meet? Why would you call me? You couldn't have met Qian Gaoyun, could you?"
Shao Xiang burst into laughter. "That's her. She's filming a movie and came to our place to fill in some scenes. She'll be here for the next two days. Do you want to come and see her?"
"want!"
