Chapter 338 Officially Wrapped Up
"Do you want to eat it? It's spicy, Xixi can't eat it. Mommy will change the pot for you, okay?" They cooked with a butter base, and there was also a tomato base in the space. Just take out a small pot. Anyway, Gu Jinyan would not let her wash the pot, so one more or one less would be fine.
Xixi touched her stomach, feeling a little hungry, and nodded heavily, "Okay."
Ye Qian got up and went to the kitchen, took out a small pot from the space, then added some tomato base ingredients and a little stream water. After taking it out, she plugged it in and started cooking. There was still some food left from before, and Xixi couldn't eat much, so Ye Qian didn't add any more.
After a while, Xixi's pot was boiling. The tomato-flavored pot had a sour base. Xixi's appetite was probably not very good since she was sick, so eating something sour was just the right thing to whet her appetite. Ye Qian asked the child what she wanted to eat and put it in the small pot for her to cook. Xixi looked at the meat in front of her and said, "Meat, too."
"Okay, Xixi wants to eat meat." Ye Qian picked up another piece of meat with chopsticks and put it into the small pot.
After waiting for a while, the hot pot was ready. Ye Qian put the vegetables and meat into Xixi's bowl. Xixi also picked up the chopsticks and started eating after taking two sips. As soon as she ate, she woke up completely from her sleepiness and said, "Mom, it's delicious. I want more."
Seeing that Xixi had a good appetite, Ye Qian added some vegetables and meat. Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan also ate some dishes with tomato base, which tasted really good.
After finishing the dishes, they served some soup. The soup with the meat was more delicious than the clear soup. After everyone drank a bowl, Ye Qian handed the task of tidying the table to Gu Jinyan. When Gu Jinyan finished tidying the living room, Ye Qian had already fallen asleep with Xixi in her arms.
The next day.
Xixi was completely well now, and she felt much better after a good sleep. She woke up early and disturbed Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan. Ye Qian didn't plan to stay in bed on the first day of the new year, so after Xixi's disturbance for a while, she got up.
The New Year's goods were prepared yesterday. In the morning, Ye Qian stewed the two chickens she had brought back yesterday with glutinous rice and ginseng. She had originally planned to stew it last night, but she ate too much and forgot about it, so she had to leave it until morning.
I can’t eat it at noon, I’ll have to wait until dinner.
While other families celebrate Chinese New Year with family visits and a lively atmosphere, they don't have any relatives, so they spend the holiday with their children. Naturally, the children are delighted; the weekend is the only day in the year when the family can be together. So, the children look forward to Chinese New Year with great anticipation.
For three consecutive days, the family did not go out. They took out the small toys at home and played with them one after another.
The fourth day of the New Year.
Ye Qian got on her bike, said goodbye to the children, and went to the crew.
Ye Qian thought she had arrived early, but she didn't expect everyone to be there by the time she got there. She apologized a little sheepishly, asked how everyone was doing, and passed out the red envelopes she had packed in advance. These were the red envelopes for the start of work, a must-give, and also for good luck.
Ye Qian didn't give much, only 50 cents. But it wasn't too little for that era, because red envelopes weren't cheap either, costing 1 cent each, and she had to prepare red envelopes for so many people.
After a few days of rest, everyone seemed in a good mood. They gathered together to chat. Meanwhile, Ye Qian was discussing scenes with the lead actors. They had already moved to another filming location. They were now filming the war scenes, which required blasting and other things, so the location would be more remote to avoid disturbing the people nearby.
After two weeks of repetitive filming of the explosion scenes, some extras (classmates) only suffered minor injuries, but no one else was seriously injured, which put Ye Qian at ease. She was worried about what would happen if someone was killed or disabled in the explosion. Compensation was a small matter, but if someone was permanently injured, her conscience would be uneasy for the rest of her life.
After finishing the explosion scene, Ye Qian gave the crew a day off so they could all rest up. They would need to shoot for another two weeks to finish the explosion scene. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news, "Finally, we can rest. My ears have been a bit numb from the explosions lately."
"Yeah, me too."
"This is much more tiring than filming other scenes."
"Yeah, these past two days I wasn't stunned by the explosion, but I was stunned by my jumping." Whenever there was an explosion, he would jump to the side, and he always jumped to one side, and that side seemed a little dazed.
"Isn't it? I feel the same way. Fortunately, I can rest now."
…
Ye Qian didn't go home on her day off. She had taken time to go back the previous two days when she had some free time. It was a good day off, so she gave He Jun some private lessons. Her scenes were about to wrap, but Ye Qian didn't plan to let her go, so she asked her to stay on set to learn more about acting. Not only was He Jun willing, but several of her classmates in the acting class were also willing. After all, such an opportunity to film in this city was rare, and they didn't know when the next one would be, so they didn't refuse Ye Qian's request.
It’s not that Ye Qian doesn’t want to give special treatment to other students, but she is also a half-baked person. If she misled He Jun, it would be one thing, but if she misled a whole group of people, that would be a big deal. What would she do if the teacher came to settle the score with her when she returned to school? She would have nowhere to hide.
Of course, the question of how to proceed with this is up to Professor Neng Xiao. We can't rely on her for everything. She's a director and needs to focus on the film. Since I wrote this myself, I'm sure she'll be more attentive.
Even though Ye Qian was always joking around on set, she was very serious when filming. After all, the present was very different from the future. If your film was not good, people would not buy it. Some of them didn't even make a splash, being submerged in the river and never rising.
If you want to do it, you have to do it well. Ye Qian can relax about other things, but her acting skills must be up to par.
Fortunately, today's actors are really talented, and although the atmosphere was serious during the filming, everything was peaceful for a while.
After a day of rest, the students were able to relax.
Early the next morning, everyone cheered up and moved to a new location to start a new blasting journey.
A week later, He Jun's scenes were officially finished.
Three weeks later, the female lead's scenes were also finished. The filming was not done in the order of the plot, but according to the location, and they would move to another location after finishing one location.
The remaining scenes were all about the male lead, and they were all filmed in about two weeks.
This drama, which took three and a half months to shoot, has been perfectly completed here.
Ye Qian handed all the films to Professor Xiao. It wasn't that Ye Qian wanted to be lazy, but she didn't have the equipment to edit the films. She really couldn't do anything about it, but Professor Xiao's attitude should not make things perfunctory.
