Chapter 208 The Price of Fairness
After the script was in place and the filming was ready, Qi Weiming started filming without stopping.
“Action!”
hotel.
Xie Weihua opened the window and saw Zhao Zhenchuan climb onto the roof. With a look of determination in her eyes, she was about to close the window. The Japanese military police were chasing them too fast. She couldn't run fast or far, and would only become a burden to Zhao Zhenchuan. She decided to stay and deal with the Japanese to buy Zhao Zhenchuan time to leave.
She was holding onto the window door when her hand was suddenly grabbed. Zhao Zhenchuan said to her, "Let's go together."
"No, take me with you and you'll get caught too."
"We haven't been exposed yet. As long as we escape this hotel, we'll be safe. Weihua, if we go, we go together. If we die, we die together."
Under his unwavering gaze, Xie Weihua slowly held his hand, and with the help of his arm strength, she also climbed onto the roof.
Xie Weihua had never been on a roof before and was extremely nervous. Although the roof was a Western-style building and very sturdy, it was also very steep. She held Zhao Zhenchuan's hand tightly, and every step she took was extremely dangerous. She almost fell off several times.
The most thrilling time was when half of my body fell down and I was almost discovered by the Japanese below.
In the hotel, Yamamoto Masako angrily directed the military police and security team to find the person. However, she stood below Zhao Zhenchuan and Xie Weihua several times and did not find him.
As Zhao Zhenchuan navigated the military police and security forces, Xie Weihua, with her intelligence and calculation skills, always managed to help Zhao Zhenchuan navigate critical situations. The two collaborated, over and over again, to overcome crises.
The hotel below the roof was filled with searching Japanese soldiers and traitors, and the atmosphere was tense. On the roof, Zhao Zhenchuan and Xie Weihua squatted there quietly, waiting for the search personnel below to leave before moving in another direction.
During the break, the two sat on the roof, looking at the bright moon in the sky, whispering to each other, getting to know each other better and appreciating each other more.
After a brief moment of warmth, the two began their thrilling escape and finally escaped from the hotel before dawn.
When daybreak came and Masako Yamamoto still hadn't found the people, she knew that they had escaped again this time.
Who is that person?
Masako Yamamoto was furious and roared at the incompetent military police and security team.
“Cut!”
After Qi Weiming finished filming the last few shots of Yamamoto Masako, he called a halt and praised Xia Lu, saying, "You performed well. Your final angry performance was very spiritual. Keep it up next time."
Xia Lu threw the Japanese officer's hat off her head, and was furious in her heart: Damn it, she was really angry!
All the good scenes were taken away from Hu Xiaoxiao. The director shot him from all angles, front and side, close-up and long shots. Her scenes, however, were shot in close-ups, and only in angry, furious close-ups. She grew increasingly irritated, her emotions uncontrollably spilling out.
And you still praise her for being spiritual?
What's the difference between this and scolding her?
Xia Lu went to the dressing room with a lot of anger to remove her makeup and change clothes, then picked up her bag and left, not wanting to stay on the crew any longer.
Hu Xiaoxiao was in the locker room. She lifted up her skirt and saw the scratches on her legs. There were some deep scratches that were bleeding.
Her knees and elbows were also injured. When filming the thrilling scene just now, in order to fit the image of a delicate daughter, she actually hit the hard roof. The places where she was hit are still numb and painful.
Although her physique is much better than that of ordinary people and her recovery ability is stronger than that of ordinary people, she still feels pain, bleeds, and gets injured.
"Xiaoxiao." Song Yan'an suddenly called her outside the locker room.
Hu Xiaoxiao quickly lowered her skirt, opened the door, and looked at Song Yan'an, who was standing outside in a neat suit. "Haven't you changed into your costume yet?"
"Wait a minute." Song Yan'an handed her a bottle of medicinal wine and said, "Just now when we were filming, I saw that you had fallen in several scenes. You must have been seriously injured, right? Here, I used to use this medicinal wine a lot. It's very effective. I got it from an old Chinese doctor who specializes in trauma. Apply it to the injured area and rub it in to smooth it out. Don't leave any hidden dangers."
Many actors were not careful when they were young and did not treat injuries properly. As a result, a bunch of old problems popped up when they got older, making them miserable.
Hu Xiaoxiao didn't expect Song Yan'an to be so thoughtful. In fact, she also brought medicinal wine. When she was filming martial arts dramas in the past, she was often injured. Mingxu also gave her a recipe for medicinal wine and asked her to make some for her own use.
She took it from Song Yanan and smiled brightly. "Thank you, Brother An."
Seeing how badly injured she was, yet she didn't shed a single tear and still had that carefree smile, Song Yan'an shook his head helplessly. "You, don't work so hard on filming. Your body is your own, you have to take care of yourself."
"I thought if I did it in one go, the result would be smoother."
"Not many actors can pull off a thrilling action sequence in one take. You're too demanding of yourself, wanting it to be done in one take and in one take. Even the director isn't as demanding as you. Remember next time, your health is the most important thing. A few NGs are no big deal."
"Okay, I understand."
"Hurry up and wipe it with medicinal wine. Remember to go to the hospital immediately if you feel uncomfortable."
After thanking Song Yan'an again, Hu Xiaoxiao returned to the dressing room, changed out of her costume, and then rubbed the bruises with medicinal wine. The pain was so severe that she inhaled while applying the medicine.
It hurt, but she didn't regret it and would do it again next time.
If she wants to get more than others, she must pay more than others.
She thought that was fair.
After Hu Xiaoxiao applied the medicinal wine, she changed into casual clothes, then took her handbag and left the film and television city.
After a hard day's work, she had to treat herself to something good.
I haven’t eaten chicken for a long time, so this time I’m going to have boiled chicken, soy sauce chicken, and roast chicken.
When thinking of delicious food, Hu Xiaoxiao's face became radiant, and he didn't look like a person with bruises all over his body at all.
The people on the crew couldn't see it. Seeing that Hu Xiaoxiao's scenes were filmed so easily and smoothly every day, they just thought she was lucky and envied her luck.
Qi Weiming re-watched the scenes filmed by Hu Xiaoxiao and was very satisfied with Hu Xiaoxiao's professionalism. He praised Hu Xiaoxiao several times in front of Lin Yi.
The director likes this kind of carefree and professional actor the most.
If the director likes her, it will show on her face to some extent. Hu Xiaoxiao noticed it immediately, so she started thinking about how to convince the director and screenwriter to give her more scenes.
She remembered that Xie Weihua was set to be good at shooting, but in the script, there was only one scene that showed Xie Weihua's shooting skills.
Hu Xiaoxiao felt it was a pity to only shoot such a good setting once, and he had to add something.
