Chapter 69
When Qiao Yiqiao flew back to Heng City, he just happened to catch the wrap-up party.
This wrap-up banquet was again a grand affair, booking two floors of the largest hotel in Heng City and setting up dozens of tables.
As usual, Qiao Yi Qiao invited everyone in the crew, including those crew members sent in from major companies.
The only ones who didn't come were Qian You's editing team and Xin Nan's visual effects team. It wasn't because Qiao Yi Qiao was stingy, but because they were already extremely busy trying to meet deadlines and really had no time to attend such a gathering.
There were many more main creators this time than in "When the Walls Fall Down", and they filled up two large tables: one table for the main actors, and another table for other crew members, such as the camera team, lighting team, and art team.
For convenience, Qiao Yi Qiao went back and forth between the two large tables, keeping his feet on the ground all the time.
As Qiao Yi Qiao drank, he thought that perhaps the happiest moments in every film were these two drinking parties, one was the wrap-up party, and the other was the celebration party.
The former marks the end of the most difficult days of the entire project, while the latter marks a fruitful harvest.
"Well, let me raise a glass first." The cameraman from Hong Kong said as he picked up the glass.
After being on the crew for a few months, his Mandarin has improved a lot.
Everyone in the audience looked at him.
"Thank you Director Qiao for giving us this opportunity to see the true power of the film and television industrial process," the cameraman said slowly, "To be honest, I have never been involved in such a highly efficient crew. The most important thing is that I didn't feel exhausted at all. I only had to take care of my subordinates' work. It's really amazing. Anyway, Director Qiao and everyone else, I toast to you."
After saying this, he drank the full wine vessel of liquor in one gulp.
A group of people quickly followed.
Qiao Yiqiao also drank it all in one gulp.
He thought silently, no matter where you are, drinking is always the thing that everyone learns the fastest.
This person probably doesn't have the habit of drinking directly from a wine decanter in Hong Kong!
Afterwards, elites from various major companies also toasted.
They all said that before, they had only heard Hollywood talk about the industrialization of film and television, but they did not expect that it would be realized in China. They could really use a fully industrialized process to shoot a feature film.
It took me more than three months to finish shooting a feature film, and I was writing the script while shooting.
Qiao Yi Qiao thought that he might have set another small record.
But he created
All records are normal.
If he didn't create some small miracles after filming a movie, it would be unlike him.
A group of grown men were noisy and drinking for a long time, all of them were a little drunk. Regardless of where they came from and their completely different life backgrounds and religious beliefs, everyone was drinking to their heart's content.
Then, Cheng Tiantian stood up.
Everyone fell into a long-lost silence.
"Director Qiao, thank you so much, thank you for giving me the opportunity to become like this," Cheng Tiantian smiled shyly but not timidly. "Before this play, I always felt like a child in a body of a hundred or so. It was you who helped that child stand up again, grow up again, and start singing again. I think I have really found my own voice this time. Thank you."
These words touched many people at the scene.
They also watched Cheng Tiantian endure hardships and improve along the way, and then perfectly interpret the role in the play.
Everyone had their own feelings in their hearts, and they picked up the wine glasses in front of them and drank them all.
"I really want to thank you, thank you all," Qiao Yiqiao smiled, "I hope our efforts will not be in vain, and everything will have the best outcome."
He stopped being sentimental.
He has said so many words of thanks, but every time he said it, it came from the heart.
The completion of each film requires the efforts of at least hundreds of people.
This is a dream that encompasses hundreds of people. It is still growing, working hard to accumulate strength and bear fruit.
“Cheers to the best outcome!”
“The best result!”
A group of people were arguing, making noise and drinking.
Often after the wrap-up party comes the farewell party, and everyone uses alcohol to suppress their melancholy about the separation.
But Qiao Yiqiao also believes that with this experience, everyone will be able to make it more professional no matter which crew they are in in the future.
This is what he wants to see most.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yi Qiao felt very happy.
However, there was one unhappy person in the audience.
Shi Ran sat there alone, drinking alcohol in a depressed mood.
Qiao Yiqiao instinctively cared about everyone and soon noticed him.
"Why are you unhappy?" Qiao Yiqiao asked, "How are you doing recently?"
Shi Ran took a sip of his wine and shook his head: "It's okay."
Qiao Yiqiao looked at him steadily: "Follow
I’m telling the truth.”
"Okay..." Shi Ran instantly stopped smiling, revealing his original disappointment, "Brother, I just feel that I have not made any contribution to this movie, so I am not worthy of having this feast."
"How could that be!" Qiao Yiqiao patted his arm, "You made Tiantian's condition better, you are the biggest contributor!"
"Yeah," Cheng Tiantian also noticed his situation and came over, "I couldn't have completed this performance without you, you're really amazing!"
"Really?" Shi Ran smiled bitterly, "But I think you can become so beautiful without me."
"That's true," Cheng Tiantian patted Shi Ran on the shoulder, "but without you, I wouldn't dare to do many exercises, and I might not be able to become so healthy and beautiful so quickly, so you are still very important!"
Shi Ran looked at Cheng Tiantian's determined eyes and Qiao Yiqiao's confident expression, and finally sighed: "Well, I still have a little bit of use."
"Of course," Qiao Yiqiao said seriously, "This movie can't be made without any of you, really."
Shi Ran nodded: "Okay, actually I'm not happy, there's something else..."
Qiao Yiqiao and Cheng Tiantian asked in unison: "What's wrong?"
Shi Ran moved his left hand: "I feel my left hand is getting more numb these days, and I can hardly move it. I suspect my illness is getting worse..."
Qiao Yi Qiao held Shi Ran's left hand and asked him to use force, but found that his strength was indeed very weak.
He frowned and asked, "Didn't I ask you to check it out before? What was the result?"
Shi Ran said weakly: "Boss, I don't dare to go..."
"Alas," Qiao Yiqiao sighed, "I was too busy recently and didn't take good care of you. Wait for me to see the specialist number. I will take you to the hospital myself and we will have a thorough check-up, okay? No matter what the result is, I will stay with you."
"I'll accompany you too," Cheng Tiantian also said, "Don't be afraid, we will face it together."
"Okay..." Shi Ran hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "Thank you."
…
A week later, Qiao Yi Qiao made an appointment with a specialist at a tertiary hospital in Yanjing and flew to Yanjing with Shi Ran and Cheng Tiantian.
The hospitals in Yanjing were overcrowded, filled with sick old, middle-aged and young people, and even a few children among them. It was a pity to see them.
Shi Ran became even more nervous when he saw so many patients.
I was shaking like a sieve while waiting to see the doctor in front of the clinic.
.
Qiao Yi Qiao had to hold his hand tightly in public, and Cheng Tiantian also had to hold his other hand, just to barely keep Shi Ran stable.
People around looked at this strange triangle with sidelong glances.
I'm a bit confused.
Finally, the doctor called Shi Ran.
Triangle walked into the clinic in this strange and outrageous posture.
"Wow," the expert doctor couldn't help but sigh when he saw them, "What a big scene."
Qiao Yiqiao smiled bitterly: "Excuse me."
"If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me," the expert said indifferently, "Just let the patient speak for himself."
Then, Shi Ran told the doctor about all the discomforts he was experiencing.
The doctor's expression didn't change throughout the whole process.
"Go get an EMG." He wrote the order indifferently.
The doctor's attitude made Shi Ran even more nervous. He walked out tremblingly, not even knowing how he got to the electromyography examination room.
Fortunately, Qiao Yi Qiao and Cheng Tiantian couldn't follow in, otherwise their hands would have been crushed.
In short, after completing the electromyography, Shi Ran waited for the results tremblingly.
I went straight to the clinic after the results came out.
The doctor glanced up at the EMG report.
Then, still without looking up, he said, "You don't have ALS."
Three people:?
So fast.
Shi Ran couldn't believe it: "But they all said I have ALS..."
"Come on," the expert said unkindly, "Are they the experts or am I the expert? If you don't believe it, go to them for treatment."
Qiao Yiqiao was afraid that Shi Ran would cry, so he hurriedly asked, "What's going on with his symptoms?"
"Go get a brain CT scan," the specialist added, "and then you should know."
This time, Shi Ran stopped sifting through the bran and instead pulled the two of them to the CT examination room.
After the examination, he returned to the specialist's office.
The expert took a quick look and said with little interest: "You have Hirayama syndrome. The early symptoms are muscle weakness in one hand."
Shi Ran was almost scared to death, "What is Pingshan disease?"
"It's a rare but not serious disease. It's probably related to your previous extreme sports, which caused excessive neck pressure," the expert yawned. "Just do less dangerous sports in the future."
Shi Ran was almost speechless, tears streaming down her face.
Big drops fell: "Is it really not ALS? Really? Really?"
expert:"……"
The expert looked at Qiao Yiqiao and said, "Are you his guardian? I suggest he go see a psychiatric doctor."
Qiao Yiqiao: "...Um, doctor, what should we do about his current symptoms?"
"Hirayama syndrome will heal on its own. No special treatment is needed. I'll just prescribe him some vitamin B12," the expert said calmly. "Go home and get more rest, exercise moderately, and don't be too stressed out, otherwise there will be somatic manifestations. Do you understand?"
Shi Ran still grabbed the doctor's sleeve: "I really don't have ALS, really..."
Before he could finish his words, Qiao Yi Qiao and Cheng Tiantian covered Shi Ran's mouth and dragged him away.
If they stayed any longer, they were afraid that the doctor would call security.
After leaving the hospital, Shi Ran couldn't help but repeat, "Am I really not suffering from ALS?"
This time, Lian Chengtian couldn't help it anymore and pinched his mouth: "If the expert told you it's not true, then it's not true. He sees dozens of patients a day, so he knows best whether you are true or not! You were deceived by your ex-girlfriend and that private hospital, you love-brained fool! You should find a way to sue that hospital and your ex-girlfriend and get your money back!"
Shi Ran fell silent.
Then he started again: "I really don't have ALS, I really don't..."
The two of them held their foreheads.
Never mind, let it fend for itself.
The two of them strode forward.
Shi Ran still pestered the two tirelessly, like a happy bird: "I'm really not, I'm really not xN..."
Qiao Yiqiao was so annoyed by the nagging that his face was full of black lines: "Are you thirsty? You must be thirsty after a whole day. There is a convenience store in front. I will go buy you some water. Tiantian is optimistic about your partnership. Bye!"
After saying that, he ran towards the quiet place of the convenience store.
Cheng Tiantian was stunned.
Qiao Yiqiao, who walked calmly on the set, was escaping at a speed of 9.8 seconds per 100 meters.
After buying the water, Qiao Yi Qiao deliberately lingered for a long time before going back.
When I got back, Shi Ran had calmed down and was standing there grinning foolishly.
Cheng Tiantian looked like she was about to die.
The look she gave Qiao Yiqiao was almost murderous.
The three of them boarded the flight home in such a strange atmosphere.
Shi Ran was still grinning foolishly until he landed.
Qiao Yiqiao sighed.
Sure enough, people say that the biggest surprise in life is a false alarm.
Then he turned on his cell phone.
Ding dong ding dong, the phone rang wildly.
When Qiao Yiqiao opened WeChat, he saw that the situation had exploded.
Xiao He and Liu Chong sent him 180 messages.
It all comes down to one thing.
——Cheng Tiantian has become a hot topic.
I saw the hot search entertainment list, and there is one entry in the top ten.
#Cheng Tiantian is sick#
He clicked on it and saw the message: "Cheng Tiantian showed up in a hospital four months after quitting the live broadcast industry. She was extremely thin, looked unwell, and was suspected to be ill. There was also a man who was suspected to be mentally ill next to her..."!
