On the stage of the entertainment industry, Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran's farewell work shines like a dazzling star, slowly rising and radiating a unique and captivating light. As filming officially began, they seemed to be engaged in a grand battle against time and a tug-of-war with their emotions, throwing themselves wholeheartedly into the project. Every glance, every movement, and every line of dialogue was imbued with their boundless love and deep affection for their acting careers, as if they were weaving an exquisite and deeply affectionate artistic scroll, striving to draw a breathtaking and historically significant conclusion to their illustrious acting careers.
On the first day of filming, a unique atmosphere of solemnity and slight melancholy permeated the set. Sunlight filtered through the mottled leaves, casting patterns of light and shadow on the ancient castle walls, seemingly telling tales of the vicissitudes of time. Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran arrived at the set early, dressed in their costumes, their postures upright and their demeanor ethereal, yet their eyes betrayed a complex mix of nervousness and reluctance. Ling Yichen played a legendary swordsman, weathered by life's storms and hardships. His costume was predominantly black, its fitted design accentuating his agile figure. The collar and cuffs were embroidered with delicate gold threads depicting mysterious patterns, and a jewel-encrusted black belt cinched his waist, further emphasizing his imposing presence. Jun Mo Ran portrayed a wise, gentle, and exceptionally talented female strategist. Her pale blue dress billowed in the wind, the hem embroidered with delicate white cloud patterns, making her appear like a fairy descended from heaven. A delicate jade hairpin adorned her hair, highlighting her elegance and nobility.
During the filming of a crucial scene, Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran delivered outstanding performances, earning widespread acclaim. The scene was set in the castle's main hall, surrounded by flickering candlelight, creating a dim and mysterious atmosphere. Ling Yichen held a long sword, its blade gleaming coldly in the candlelight. His eyes were resolute and profound, seemingly able to see through all the illusions of the world. Jun Mo Ran stood to the side, holding a bamboo scroll, his brow slightly furrowed, his eyes revealing worry and contemplation about the situation. When Ling Yichen uttered the profound line, "The journey through the martial world is long and arduous, my fate uncertain, but for the sake of justice, I will go without hesitation," his voice was deep and powerful, each word carrying immense weight, striking the hearts of the audience. Jun Mo Ran slightly raised her head, her gaze meeting Ling Yi Chen's. Tears welled in her eyes as she slowly said, "Since you have made your decision, I will follow you, never leaving you, sharing life and death." Her voice was soft yet resolute, her emotions sincere and delicate, deeply moving everyone present. In this scene, through their superb acting skills, they perfectly portrayed the profound emotions, unwavering beliefs, and courage in the face of an unknown fate between their characters. The staff on set were all deeply impressed by their performances, immersed in the story, seemingly forgetting the passage of time.
As filming progressed, various challenges arose, but Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran maintained a high level of focus and professionalism, facing difficulties head-on without flinching. During the filming of an intense action scene, Ling Yichen needed to complete a series of highly difficult stunts. He performed all the stunts himself, without using a stunt double, executing every movement cleanly and flawlessly, from leaping into the air to delivering powerful sword strikes. To achieve the best effect, he rehearsed repeatedly, disregarding his physical fatigue and pain. During one rehearsal, he accidentally sprained his ankle, but after a simple bandage, he continued filming. His eyes revealed an unwavering determination, as if telling everyone that he was determined to give the most perfect performance for this farewell project. Jun Mo Ran watched with heartache, silently preparing hot compresses and herbal tea for Ling Yichen, carefully tending to him during breaks.
When filming scenes requiring intense emotional outbursts, Jun Mo Ran delved deeply into her own emotions, immersing herself completely in the role. In one scene, the female strategist learns that the chivalrous hero is facing a life-or-death crisis, and her inner turmoil culminates in a powerful emotional outburst. Before filming, Jun Mo Ran thoroughly studied the character's inner world, imagining how she would feel if she truly faced the pain of losing a loved one. When filming began, her tears flowed like a burst dam, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "You can't leave! Without you, this world has no meaning for me." Her performance was incredibly moving, allowing everyone on set to truly feel the character's pain and despair. The director, watching from behind the monitor, was deeply touched, repeatedly praising her: "Jun Mo Ran, you've truly brought this character to life! Your emotional expression is so real and profound."
During filming, the chemistry between Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran reached an unprecedented level. They didn't need many words; a glance or a subtle gesture was enough for them to understand each other's intentions. In a scene where they faced an enemy together, Ling Yichen's simple sidestep was immediately understood by Jun Mo Ran, who swiftly assisted him from the side. Their teamwork was seamless, as if they were true heroes and strategists, fighting side-by-side in the martial arts world, sharing life and death. This chemistry wasn't just the culmination of years of collaboration; it was a reflection of their deep affection for each other. Knowing this was their last time working together on screen, they cherished every shot and every interaction, striving for perfection.
During breaks in filming, the atmosphere on set was exceptionally warm yet tinged with a touch of melancholy. Ling Yichen and Jun Mo Ran would sit together, quietly reviewing the scenes they had just filmed, exchanging their acting insights and understanding of their characters. They would reminisce about the moments they had shared during filming—the laughter, the tears, the unforgettable times they had spent together. Sometimes, they would look at the busy crew members on set, a feeling of gratitude welling up inside them. These unsung heroes silently dedicated themselves to the production, their hard work ensuring the smooth progress of filming. Ling Yichen would proactively approach a crew member, offering them a bottle of water and expressing his appreciation; Jun Mo Ran would personally bake some small snacks for the crew to express her gratitude.
