Chapter 89 Should You Repay Me?
"It would be nice if I could eat meat every day and play a pig butcher." Mingxu touched his belly and sighed softly.
Charlie glared at me, "What are you talking about?"
Mingxu picked up a script book, flipped through it carefully, and said, "I'm memorizing my lines."
As soon as Charlie left, Mingxu threw the script aside, ran back to the small room, found the bag of snacks, and ate them quickly.
He had no choice. There was a big fight scene coming up, which required jumping up and down and running around. If he was so hungry that his hands and feet were weak and he had no strength, how could he act?
After stealing snacks once or twice, he was finally caught by Charlie. All his snacks were confiscated, and all the nearby places were searched, and Mingxu's secret hiding place was taken away.
Just as Hu Xiaoxiao was mourning for Mingxu, Mingxu called Hu Xiaoxiao aside mysteriously and said, "Xiaoxiao, have you eaten a lot of my food recently?"
Hu Xiaoxiao nodded. Every time Mingxu went to eat secretly, he would call her over, and she would get a lot of delicious food.
Mingxu stared at her with his exceptionally bright eyes. "Then shouldn't you return the favor?"
It turned out that he had a purpose for inviting her to cheat on him. Hu Xiaoxiao asked, "How do you want me to repay you?"
Mingxu's smile was like sunshine on his face, warm and kind. He reached into his pocket with a warm hand, pulled out a handful of snacks, and placed them in Hu Xiaoxiao's hand.
Handful after handful.
I don’t know why his clothes and pants have so many pockets. These pockets can hold so many things that Hu Xiaoxiao can’t hold them all with his hands, so he has to wrap the snacks in his coat.
Mingxu emptied all his pockets, his eyebrows curved slightly, the corners of his lips curled up, and he said to Hu Xiaoxiao: "Hide them in your bag. Charlie will look through my things, but he won't check your women's bags. When I'm hungry, you can secretly take them out for me. Remember to do it secretly, don't let Charlie find out."
"It's a small matter, leave it to me." Hu Xiaoxiao picked up all the snacks very loyally.
She brought a lot of things from the crew and specially brought a bag that could hold a lot of things.
Mingxu thought about it and felt uneasy. He reminded Hu Xiaoxiao, "Remember to leave some for me. Don't eat it all."
Hu Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "No, I brought some snacks with me too."
Television shooting is not done in the order of the plot. Instead, after a scene is built, all the scenes related to that scene will be filmed before the next scene is moved on.
After Lin Erniang's tavern was set up, all the scenes involving the tavern began filming.
Hu Xiaoxiao has a scene in the tavern, where he plays against Zhou Bijun and Lin Erniang.
Hu Xiaoxiao changed into a red dress and put on a veil. The background of her appearance was to track down a fish that had escaped the net and suspected that he was hidden by the tavern owner, so she came to the tavern.
This is one of the few scenes where Hu Xiaoxiao and Hong Qiuyan act against each other.
In preparation for today's rivalry, Hong Qiuyan was more serious than ever. She rehearsed every movement and expression several times in advance, vowing to crush Hu Xiaoxiao with her acting skills.
When the director called out "Action", Hong Qiuyan immediately entered the role. She walked down from upstairs with a handkerchief in her hand and a slight sway in her waist.
Every frown and smile is full of charm.
Hong Qiuyan has played several such roles and performs them with ease.
Hong Qiuyan walked to the counter, put one hand on the counter, leaned her waist softly, and looked towards the door with seductive eyes.
At the door, Hu Xiaoxiao walked in. She was dressed in a flowing red dress. Her skirt fluttered slightly as she moved, and she was extremely graceful.
She stopped in the tavern and looked around. Her veiled face revealed only a pair of eyes, but her eyes were bright and beautiful, and her beauty was peerless. Her entrance seemed to bring a brilliant color to the shabby tavern.
Hong Qiuyan wanted to suppress Hu Xiaoxiao, but when she saw the powerful presence of Hu Xiaoxiao when he came in, she knew that she had lost in terms of aura.
She looked at Hu Xiaoxiao in a dazzling red dress, then at her own lifeless black dress, and felt secretly annoyed.
“Cut!”
The director shouted "Cut!" and pointed at Hong Qiuyan, "Helen, why are you daydreaming while we're acting?"
Hong Qiuyan quickly regained her composure and said, "Sorry, let me do it again."
After this shot, the next shot shows Hong Qiuyan and Hu Xiaoxiao in the same frame.
Hong Qiuyan's enchanting charm was presented on the camera, leaving a deep impression. Next, Hu Xiaoxiao also appeared in this shot, his brows cold, as if a sword pierced through Hong Qiuyan's enchantment.
Even with a veil between them, Hu Xiaoxiao still stole the focus of the camera, making people ignore the existence of another actor.
In the scene where the two women were confronting each other, Hong Qiuyan used all her skills to make this one pass.
The next fight scene is a conflict between Zhou Bihua and Lin Erniang, and the two women fight each other.
In order to make this fight scene more entertaining, wire suspension is needed.
Not only this scene, in order to increase the viewing experience of the martial arts shots, there are a lot of wire-hanging scenes throughout the play.
This was Hu Xiaoxiao's first time hanging on wires. She changed roles and revised the script at the last minute, and had no chance to practice the wire-hanging scenes.
It was only then that the director realized this oversight. With a pang of anxiety, he asked Hu Xiaoxiao, "How about giving you two days to train?"
Hu Xiaoxiao refused and said, "Don't delay the filming for me alone. I can do it."
"OK, action crew, get ready, prepare the wire harness for Hu Xiaoxiao."
Mingxu was sitting outside the arena, legs crossed. When he heard the director's words, the jerky in his mouth lost its flavor. He stood up and asked, "Xiaoxiao, are you afraid of heights?"
Hu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid."
"It's good that you're not afraid." Mingxu was still worried after thinking about it, so he walked over and told Hu Xiaoxiao a lot of his experience in wire hanging.
Hong Qiuyan, who was also hanging on the wire over there, already knew that Hu Xiaoxiao had no training. She was secretly happy in her heart: I lost to you in the previous performance, and the rest of the performance will depend on me.
After being hung on the wire, Hong Qiuyan performed several movements in the air and looked at Hu Xiaoxiao provocatively.
Hu Xiaoxiao didn't notice it, or rather, her mind was on the wire.
As she continued to rise, she was getting farther and farther away from the ground.
After she got used to the feeling of the wire around her body, she flew through the air with the help of the wire under the tense gaze of everyone, her clothes fluttering in the wind, like a fairy soaring into the sky.
There is something indescribably natural and elegant in her every gesture, and her graceful figure seems to be dancing in the air.
Mingxu tilted his head back, so surprised that he forgot to chew the dried meat. "Xiaoxiao, how come you acted so well in Qinggong? It's like you can really fly."
Hu Xiaoxiao lowered his head, looked at Mingxu, and said with a smile, "Maybe I really can fly."
