Feng Ying'er was also among them. She wore wild makeup and tribal clothing that resembled a bikini. At this moment, she crossed her arms and snorted disdainfully, clearly enjoying the show.
"Third-rate actors, they're no good when it comes to filming, right? Did they think they were really hiring zookeepers? That they could relax just because they can interact with that black panther? Such a simple scene had so many takes, it's a complete waste of time!"
Her agent reminded her, "Keep your voice down..."
Feng Ying'er scoffed, "Am I wrong?"
Tan Zheng frowned as he waited in the wings.
Because the next scene is about him, when Cang Yun sinks into the sea, he happens to pass by and wants to go into the water to save her.
The male protagonist he plays is from a mysterious tribe on the island, and also the legendary guardians of the island. They coexist with spirit beasts, protect the island, and never allow outsiders to set foot on it.
However, the cat kept making mistakes, which surprised Tan Zheng.
He suddenly walked up to Director Zhou Chuan and said, "Director Zhou, can we reschedule the cat scene and shoot something else first? Being in the sea the whole time is very physically demanding."
Director Zhou Chuan was also considering this issue. He nodded and immediately picked up the walkie-talkie, saying, "Pause for a moment, let's get the cat ashore."
The cat swam directly ashore, its face somewhat pale. Filming in the sea must have been exhausting.
However, she is someone who never likes to be told what to do, and even though she kept making mistakes, she didn't lose her temper.
She walked up to Director Zhou Chuan, without apologizing, but with an expression of resignation.
Director Zhou Chuan did not scold her. He said, "Maomao, I need to adjust your scenes. We will not film your scenes for now. You are not yet able to get into the role of Cang Yun. Go back and study the script first."
The cat nodded, acquiescing to the decision.
She just left.
Seeing that she was silent, Tan Zheng assumed that she was discouraged by the setback, so she quickly took two steps forward and said, "It's normal for this to happen since it's your first time making a movie."
He was trying to comfort the cat.
Cat glanced back at him, a little absent-minded, because she was thinking about the character, not the kind Lan Feng had imagined. She wasn't discouraged at all. "Oh... I understand, Sister Tan."
After saying that, the cat continued walking.
Tan Zheng didn't say it, but she was still a little worried about Maomao, so much so that she really ignored the word "Sister Tan" this time.
Lan Feng caught up, and for a moment he didn't know what to say to Maomao. This was unexpected, because even he thought today's scenes would go smoothly, but...
When the cat was about to return to her room, she said to Lanfeng, "Don't follow me anymore, I'm going to take a shower."
Lanfeng had no choice but to stop outside the door.
...
After taking a bath and changing her clothes, the cat lay down on the sofa in front of the French windows.
She didn't need to look at the script because all the content was already imprinted in her mind. She kept thinking about the emotions that the female lead, Cang Yun, should have. She understood the reasoning, but why couldn't she do what Director Zhou Chuan asked her to do?
Not to mention others, even Maomao herself thought this scene would be simple. However, she didn't expect it to be so far from what Director Zhou Chuan required.
She seems to have underestimated the difficulty of making the film.
I thought about it for a long time and tried it many times in front of the mirror, but there was no change.
Lu Yi lay on the side, seemingly not understanding why the cat was standing stupidly in front of the mirror.
The cat rubbed her face; it had been stiff for a while.
Turning to look at Lu Yi, Maomao picked up her phone, propped it up on the table with a fruit plate, turned on the recording, and pressed the start button.
“Come over here, let Ajin see you!” Cat Cat sat on the ground and waved.
Lu Yi obediently walked over.
The black cat also jumped over, watching enviously as the cat touched Lu Yi. It stood on the sofa, slowly swishing its tail, and looked at the cat longingly.
The cat asked, "Lu Yi, are you happy being with me?"
Lu Yi, of course, didn't understand. It instinctively wagged its tail and barked, "Woof!"
The cat, ever the opportunist, translated for it: "Ah Jin, did you hear that? Lu Yi said he's very happy."
"Woof!"
"Oh? Lu Yi also said it misses you."
"Woof!"
"Hmm... Lu Yi also asked me to ask you if you'll come to visit the set? No, I mean, will you come to see it?"
"Woof!"
"Hahahaha... Lu Yi really said that."
Lu Yi watched the cat laughing, and squatted down beside it, completely bewildered, whimpering.
After laughing for a while, Maomao said again, "Ah Jin, for the first scene today, Maomao had to do 27 takes! Aren't I amazing?"
A red dot flashed on the phone screen. Cat rested her chin on her hand and finally said, "Ah Jin, what does despair mean?"
She was about to fall into thought again when she leaned over and pressed the stop button on the recording.
After recording for more than ten minutes, Maomao sent the video to Mujin. She stared at the sending progress bar for a while, but it only moved a little bit!
The island has beautiful scenery and complete facilities, but the radio signal is terrible; it's difficult to even send a text message, let alone a video.
"Ugh." The cat pouted, wondering when the video would finally be released.
After turning off her phone, the cat went back to thinking about her character.
In the evening, the crew members gradually returned.
Tan Zheng quickly finished her meal, removed her makeup, changed her clothes, and went to find the cat.
As soon as he entered, he said, "Let's rehearse a scene together."
Not polite at all.
It sounds like he came to ask the cat for help, but actually, he came to help the cat on his own initiative. However, Tan Zheng probably couldn't bring himself to say those words.
Cat didn't object. After the first scene today, she also had some doubts about her understanding of the script and the character. She skipped her own scenes and went over some other scenes with Tan Zheng.
There are no major problems. Even if there are problems, Maomao can quickly adjust after Tanzheng explains the play to her.
Tan Zheng immediately understood that the cat was stuck in the first round.
Seeing that it was getting late, he couldn't stay in the cat's room any longer. Before leaving, he explained the first scene to the cat, not knowing if it would have any effect.
...
The next day, the cat returned to the beach filming location.
Director Zhou Chuan said, "Cat, let's try again. If it still doesn't work today, we'll think of another way."
The cat nodded. "Mmm."
She boarded the rubber boat and paddled a little further away. All departments were ready, and Director Zhou Chuan was about to call "action" when Tan Zheng suddenly ran over and said, "Wait a minute, Director Zhou. I'm sorry, there's a very important phone call here that I need to answer."
Director Zhou Chuan sent him.
Watching from the side, Feng Ying'er said jealously, "Why should we wait!"
Tan Zheng handed the phone to the cat.
The cat then asked, "Why does your phone have a signal?"
Tan Zheng almost rolled her eyes. "You still have the mind to care about this... Jin Er's call, are you going to answer it or not?"
