Faced with Ji Li's sudden gentle questioning, Qin Li was stunned for two seconds, his heart softened.
He took two steps closer and gave in helplessly, "Yes, blame me for being a little harsh, but I didn't mean to be mean to you."
Qin Li looked at the young man's right eye, which was slightly red from the stimulation of fake blood, and forced himself to suppress the reluctance in his heart.
"No matter which crew you are in from now on, your health will always come first. Do you understand?"
Ji Li had just mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect to receive such sincere and warm advice from the man. The original unreasonable depression was easily soothed, and he curled his lips.
"Well, I won't do that next time."
Yu Fuya heard the undercurrent in their conversation and coughed violently.
Fortunately, we finished shooting today.
If he stayed on the crew for a few more days, he wouldn’t even know how his own artist was abducted!
Before Ji Li could speak, Ji Yunqi on the side said stupidly, "Sister Yu, has your throat been a bit uncomfortable lately? I have some health-promoting throat-soothing tea that my second sister sent over. Do you want me to share some with you?"
“…”
Yu Fuya was stuck and almost wanted to kick the silly Young Master Ji out.
Qin Li knew it well, but he smiled without saying anything.
However, when Ji Yunqi spoke, he interrupted the subtle atmosphere between Ji Li and him at the right time.
Yao Chuan arranged the transfer and quickly walked back to ask, "Ji Li, are you okay?"
"Director Yao, I'm fine. I can shoot the last scene as usual."
The second half of the sentence returns to the filming of the movie. The young man's brain never stops working when it comes to his career.
Yao Chuan was very relieved. He patted Ji Li on the shoulder and said, "Okay, I'm glad you're alright. Let's get ready to move to another location for filming."
As to whether this is the last scene, it is still unknown.
…
The following scenes are coherent——
Chen Xi angered the drug lord Shi Ye and was beaten to the point of near death.
But Shi Ye had no intention of letting the young man go. He ordered his men to drag Chen Xi to the back mountain and released a dozen hungry wolves into the semi-abandoned enclosure where few people lived.
That’s right, the ruthless man wanted these hungry wolves, which still had some ferocity, to eat the young man to death.
Before Chen Xi, those disobedient small drug dealers and policemen all had such an end, including Chen Xi's brother Chen Deshui.
The shooting point at the back of the mountain is very close to the "drug den" base camp.
For the sake of realism and safety, the crew found a group of tamed wolves in a neighboring province and transported them thousands of miles to the filming location.
At this moment, dozens of wolves were trapped in the venue, their eyes emitting green light and widened wide.
Perhaps due to the change in environment, the wolves were staring at the staff coming and going vigilantly, and some of them had even issued threatening roars.
Ji Yunqi looked a little scared and looked away unconsciously. He glanced around subconsciously and asked in confusion, "Hey, where's Yifei?"
When Ji Li heard this, he also looked around the set, and indeed did not find Yuan Yifei.
Qin Li understood and said, "The next scene will be very important for Shi Ye's emotional ups and downs. He must be hiding in the corner to brew some thoughts."
He and Yuan Yifei have worked together three or four times and are quite familiar with each other's shooting habits.
Ji Li recalled what was mentioned in the script and understood it in an instant.
The man was right. In the scene on the back hill, the drug lord Shi Ye’s emotions were more difficult to interpret than those of the dying Chen Xi. This was also a key point in the three-dimensional sublimation of this character.
Although Yuan Yifei enjoys having fun sometimes, he is still serious about filming. Maybe he felt pressured this time, so he hid himself and acted silently.
After half an hour of preparation on site, we started shooting.
Yuan Yifei walked out of the makeshift rest room with an expressionless face, and quickly went through the scene with Ji Li in coordination with the camera equipment.
"Is it okay? Let's try it once." Yao Chuan paused and added deliberately, "Yifei, don't rush this scene. If the emotions are not right, we can shoot it a few more times."
As a director, he naturally noticed Yuan Yifei's tense pressure. The latter made an 'OK' gesture and closed his eyes to prepare.
Seeing that Yuan was in a rare serious state, Ji Li chose to cooperate in silence.
He walked to the side of the extras and collapsed instantly like a seriously injured dying man, even his breathing frequency was deliberately controlled by him.
Qin Li stared at the status of the two people on the monitor and whispered to Yao Chuan, "It's almost done, let's start."
"Um."
Yao Chuan responded and called out Aciton cleanly and neatly.
As soon as the script supervisor's clapboard sounded, Yuan Yifei took two steps forward, and his exquisitely crafted leather shoes stepped on the dead branches on the ground, making crisp breaking sounds.
Yuan Yifei stopped, and the extras behind him who were dragging Ji Li also stopped and let go.
Chen Xi, played by Ji Li, was thrown to the ground by the drug dealers like a piece of rags. He raised his eyelids with difficulty, and a dry and broken sound came from his throat.
"Shi Ye, one day...you will pay the price for what you have done!"
Ji Li forced himself to hold up his upper body, his whole arms shaking violently from the effort. He was going to die anyway, so he might as well vent his anger.
Yuan Yifei turned sideways and stared at him with a half-smile, "You are just an elite in China's anti-drug work. You still have the energy to make trouble when you are about to die? Fine, I want to see what else you can say."
Ji Li chuckled, and the sound of his cough brought about a tearing pain in his chest. "If your parents were still alive, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they would vomit to death."
"...How could they give birth to a heartless, unscrupulous scum like you!"
Yuan Yifei's eyes, which originally contained a sneer, suddenly froze, and he suddenly raised his foot and kicked.
Ji Li cooperated tacitly, and fell backwards, with his back hitting the mountain covered with dead branches and rocks.
Qin Li, who was standing in front of the monitor, saw this scene and his brows furrowed instantly - he had just been told to put his health first, but less than an hour later, he fell down again without a care? This will definitely leave bruises again!
The shooting continues.
"Chen Xi, you deserve to die!"
Just five simple words brought the atmosphere to hell.
Yuan Yifei was like a devil that had completely lost control. An emotion called rage quickly climbed up his face. The blue veins on his forehead suddenly burst out, winding and circling, and even his usually charming face took on a terrifying meaning.
Because of the severe pain, the facial features of Chen Xi, played by Ji Li, were distorted for a long time, and his lungs seemed to be blocked by something.
After the rapid gasping and coughing, there was a mouthful of black blood that was so thick that it looked like blood clots.
The staff at the scene were stunned and couldn't tell for a moment whose acting skills were better.
Ji Li portrayed Chen Xi's burning pain and struggling desire to survive so vividly that they almost impulsively wanted to run up and work together to rescue him from this hell.
But when they saw the madness emanating from Yuan Yifei's body, they felt frightened and dared not act rashly.
"It's over, it's over. I think Brother Yuan is really going to kick Jili to death."
"Where did Brother Li and Director Yao find these amazing actors! I have goose bumps all over my body now!"
"This is so scary. Why did Shi Ye suddenly go berserk?" asked a staff member who had not read the full script. "Chen Xi is so miserable. Oh my god."
While everyone was whispering, Yuan Yifei had already grabbed Ji Li's arm and pulled him up from the ground.
"You're talking to me about my parents? I'm trash? Who knows that my whole life is thanks to them!"
Before the sound of the voice faded, Yuan Yifei raised his knee and hit Ji Li's abdomen hard. The latter had no strength to resist, and when he let go, he fell to the ground like a pile of sand.
Ji Li was breathing heavily, as if he was longing for fresh air. Everyone knew that this was the young man's last struggle before death.
Yuan Yifei looked down at him and asked, "Do you know who was the first person to die in the wolf's den?"
Ji Li's eyelids trembled, but he didn't say anything.
"When I was nine years old, someone threw a powerless woman into a wolf's den right in front of me. I will always remember that woman's face was full of fear, and she was so scared that she couldn't cry."
"I watched her struggle to break through the fence, and then the wolf ripped a piece of flesh off her leg."
The young Shi Ye watched as dozens of hungry wolves surrounded the woman and listened to her cries for help being drowned out little by little until he finally died.
The man who brought Shi Ye here listened to the screams with interest in his eyes, as if he was enjoying an ordinary fighting show.
"He grabbed my neck and said he would spare my life because I was his first child."
Yuan Yifei's pupils were numb, as if he was just telling someone else's story, "Later, he had someone stuff a lot of 'books' into my schoolbag and asked me to follow the set route..."
That was Shi Ye’s first time transporting drugs.
From that moment on, he was destined to be inseparable from these things for the rest of his life.
These damn policemen talk about justice in a high-sounding way, but who saw him and saved him in the first place!
Later, the man's business grew bigger and bigger, and his prestige in the underworld became higher and higher, but he didn't know that the child he had harmed and tortured had grown up and had become a weapon that could take his life.
"Do you know what happened to him? I found a group of starving wolves and tied him up and threw him in."
At that time, the person who was indifferent to the shrill screams was Shi Ye himself.
Yuan Yifei stared at the wolf's den. The haze around him gathered more and more, and the red veins rising in his eyes seemed to be stained with a tiny trace of mist.
So, don’t mention the word “parents” to him, he finds it disgusting!
They gave birth to him but don’t love him, one treats him as a tool to win favor, and the other treats him as a machine to make money. They are not worthy of being parents at all!
Yuan Yifei looked at the unconscious Chen Xi, and then at the drug dealers' subordinates who were stunned by his self-narration, and said coldly, "Throw him in and feed him to the wolves."
"……yes!"
Yuan Yifei ignored the actions of others. He closed his eyes, and when he looked up again, he had turned into the drug lord with a dagger hidden in his smile, and walked away without looking back.
The camera focused on the first branch that was crushed, and occasionally there was the sound of wolves baring their teeth and growling not far away...
The play has come to an end.
Yao Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and shouted "OK".
Ji Li and Yuan Yifei performed equally well in this scene. The two characters' completely different emotional expressions were equally perfect and impeccable.
Ji Li would naturally not be carried into the wolf's den by the extras. As soon as he heard Director Yao's voice, he jumped up from the ground and even jumped a few times on the spot to stretch his muscles.
"I didn't control the posture when I fell down just now, and my neck was twisted so much that I almost got cramps."
The young man's depressed joke was heard, diluting the solemn atmosphere on the set at the right time. The staff who were still worried all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Fortunately, Yuanbao and Jili were just acting.
But soon, everyone's minds froze again.
Yuan Yifei, who always had a smiling face, suddenly squatted on the ground and suppressed his tears. He curled up on the ground with a height of more than 1.8 meters, and he felt inexplicably sad.
Ji Li and Ji Yunqi immediately noticed something was wrong and were about to rush over, but were stopped by Qin Li, "Don't go over there, let him take his time."
In this play, if Shi Ye's appearance is crazy and cruel, then there is also great resentment and pain in his heart.
Every step in his life was traceable. As a young boy, he was powerless to decide his own destiny, so he was pushed step by step towards the abyss.
As an adult, he killed the evil scum with resentment, but in a blink of an eye, he turned into another scum.
It is not so much that he has no choice, but rather that he has accepted his fate to some extent.
Over the years, no subordinate dared to mention the word "parents" in front of him, but Chen Xi, who was completely unaware of the situation, accidentally touched upon the scar deep in his heart.
This incident also laid the groundwork for the subsequent plot of the movie.
After Yuan Yifei calmed down for a while, he quickly walked back to the lounge accompanied by his assistant and agent.
Ji Yunqi looked at his back, a little worried, "Is it really okay if it's not like this? Isn't it too emotional?"
After spending more than two months with Yuan Yifei, this was the first time he saw him lose control of his emotions like this.
Yao Chuan checked the previous clip and discovered that Yuan Yifei had handled several details delicately, so realistically that they seemed like true emotions.
He felt a little reluctant, "Qin Li, this scene probably touched the barrier in my heart."
Ji Li heard the deep meaning in the words and frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
Yu Fuya knew a little bit about it and said softly, "I heard that his biological parents who have passed away have brought him a lot of pressure."
Back then, when Yuan Yifei debuted, there were many revelations about his original family, but they were quickly suppressed by his former company.
Qin Li nodded silently. He was not the person involved in Yuan Yifei's case, so there were some things he could not say more about.
Ji Yunqi listened to their conversation, confused. He thought for a moment and then walked towards Yuan Yifei's lounge. "No, I still have to go and take a look."
If he just sits back and does nothing at this moment, he would be unworthy of the word "friend".
When Ji Li saw Ji Yunqi's actions, he followed without saying a word.
The two walked side by side to the outside of Yuan Yifei's lounge, spoke a word, then lifted the tent curtain and walked in.
Yuan Yifei sank his body into the semi-circular armchair. Although he had stopped showing his emotions, his eyes were still a little red.
He looked at the two figures and gave a forced smile, "Are you guys here to see me crying?"
"Yeah, I was planning to record it and make fun of you later." Ji Yunqi joked, unknowingly alleviating the awkwardness.
Ji Li walked forward and sat opposite Yuan Yifei without any hesitation, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay. I just remembered the bad experience in the past and I'm a little unhappy." Yuan Yifei threw an orange on the table to Ji Yunqi and instructed, "Miss San, sit down and help me peel one."
Ji Yunqi took it accurately, curled his lips, and continued to peel it without complaint.
It's his fault for always stealing so many snacks and fruits from the other party.
"Yifei, if you have anything that makes you unhappy, you can tell us."
Ji Yunqi and Ji Li sat together. "Although we are both younger than you, we are more mature mentally than you."
Yuan Yifei snorted and almost raised his fist to hit him, "Take out the second half of the sentence!"
If Ji Li said this, it would be fine, but as for whether it is mature or not, don’t you, Miss Ji San, have any idea?
He is only four years older. Besides, he looks young, okay?
Ji Li was used to the bickering between the two and just watched the show with a smile.
Yuan Yifei sighed, thinking that it was pointless to keep some things to himself. "It's nothing, actually. My grandfather only had my dad as his child. All the money he saved in his life was left to my parents."
"It's just that not long after I was born, my dad was led by his bad friends outside and got into the bad habit of gambling."
At first he gambled small and lost small, then he gambled big and lost big, and lost all his family fortune.
As far as Yuan Yifei can remember, nine out of ten quarrels at his parents' house were about gambling.
Yuan Yifei's mother was a woman with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She always threatened to divorce, but in the end she couldn't bear to leave her husband and children.
She always felt that her husband could quit gambling and change for the better.
In the year that Yuan Yifei just made his debut, misfortune still happened. Yuan's father was beaten seriously by debt collectors and was hospitalized. Yuan's mother had a car accident on the way to the hospital and died from her injuries.
Yuan Yifei had thought about severing the father-son relationship with such a father, but he could not resist his mother's last words.
This woman, who had been tough and soft-hearted all her life, was still worried about her husband before she died.
"I didn't have that much money, so I had to ask for it in advance from my agency. I signed a five-year unequal contract with them, during which all the announcement fees I earned were split 20% to 80%."
Such an agreement was unfair, but he had no choice at that time.
In five years, the company has almost squeezed out Yuan Yifei's traffic, with one advertisement after another, and one movie after another.
What Yuan Yifei's huge popularity brings is even more unbearable work pressure.
So, even when he injured his waist while filming, he had to hide and receive treatment secretly.
At the beginning, Yuan Yifei had no chance to choose the script on his own. Fortunately, Qin Li accidentally learned of this inside story and, seeing that Yuan Yifei was a talented person, he was willing to give him the opportunity to perform in high-quality scripts.
"One year, a stalker disguised as a cleaner broke into my house. After the incident, the fans blamed my former company for not handling the situation properly..."
"Few people know that this news was sold by that man for a large sum of money. He couldn't get the money from me, so he had evil intentions."
When Ji Yunqi heard these words, he was so angry that his teeth were itching.
What kind of weird biological father is this? He lost money himself, but he showed no mercy when it came to cheating his own son.
Ji Li's expression was also somewhat solemn. He finally understood why Yuan Yifei was so deeply touched during the filming.
Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable having a father like this?
Actors are not afraid of difficult roles, but they are afraid that the roles have subtle similarities with themselves. Once empathy is reached, it will only bring out the scars in their hearts.
"What happened next?" Ji Yunqi asked.
"My contract with my former company expired, so I opened my own studio. He was arrested and sent to prison for committing a crime. He has been sentenced to five years and has not been released yet."
Yuan Yifei let out a sigh of relief, as the depression he had felt from being immersed in the play finally settled down after he had confessed his feelings.
"Anyway, I have finally made it. He walks his own path, and I walk my own path. No one can get in the way of anyone else."
Yuan Yifei snatched the orange that Ji Yunqi had peeled and stuffed it into his mouth happily.
Ji Li and Ji Yunqi looked at each other and felt relieved.
Yuan Yifei narrowed his eyes in sourness and changed the subject, "Miss Third, how come you picked such sour oranges?"
Ji Yunqi was not convinced, "Go away, I'm peeling it for you out of kindness, but you're still picky."
Ji Li laughed and pointed out, "Yifei, you picked this orange yourself."
“…”
Yuan Yifei thought of this and stuffed the remaining sour oranges into Ji Yunqi's mouth. "Don't you like to eat them? I'll give them to you as a reward."
Ji Yunqi tasted the sour taste and quickly spit it out, "Go to hell, you made Ji Li and I worry for nothing."
When Yuan Yifei heard this, he felt a little warm in his heart. He stood up and said to Ji Li, "Let's go. I've been upset for a while and delayed your celebration."
Ji Li nodded, stood up and joked, "Accompany me and Director Yao to ask for a red envelope for the completion of the filming. I acted in two dramas directed by him, and my character had a miserable ending in each one."
The three of them walked out of the tent lounge side by side and saw that the crew was wrapping up work in an orderly manner.
Qin Li noticed the three figures at the first moment. He cast a concerned look at Yuan Yifei, who smiled knowingly, silently indicating that he was fine.
Seeing this, Qin Li immediately turned his gaze back to Ji Li, "Come here quickly, we are looking for you."
Ji Li looked at the several important people standing together, walked over quickly, and asked with a smile, "Director Yao, you have to give me one of your wrap-up red envelopes."
"You little brat, you've even learned to ask me for a bonus for the finale!"
Yao Chuan smiled cheerfully and patted his shoulder again, "Don't worry, I've already prepared a red envelope for you, but I won't give it to you now. Wait until you finish filming your scene."
Ji Li was stunned, obviously not understanding the meaning of this.
Wait until the filming is finished?
But hasn’t he completed all his parts in the script?
"Ji Li, we have just discussed with Ms. Yu, you don't have to rush to finish the filming and leave..."
Screenwriter Fang Zhixing, who had not appeared in the crew for a long time, suddenly showed up and handed Ji Li a few thin pages of paper.
"I just finished the final draft. There will be another scene the day after tomorrow, about Chen Xi."
Ji Li lowered his eyes and looked at the flying page of the script that was suddenly handed to him, and was visibly stunned.
Script fly pages refer to the temporary additions to the plot content and notice sheets during the filming of a film or television work.
It’s the last day of filming, can we still give Chen Xi more scenes?
Qin Li looked at him meaningfully, "Why don't you open it and take a closer look?"
Ji Li came back to his senses after being reminded by him and quickly opened the script content that was added temporarily.
He glanced at the newly added scenes, and the surprise in his eyes only increased.
