In the blink of an eye.
Another two weeks have passed.
Aside from completing a few routine tasks, Su Zhengnan's daily work was basically the same every day, with no major differences.
Finally, Saturday arrived.
This day.
Early in the morning, after having breakfast, Su Zhengnan changed his clothes and took a taxi to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xuanwu Hospital in Beijing.
Today he is going to participate in the filming of "Infinite Vitality".
The filming location for "Infinite Vitality" was inside the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xuanwu Hospital in Beijing.
The reason for choosing the Third Affiliated Hospital is that the patient flow here is relatively small, so filming can minimize the impact on patients' medical treatment.
To be honest, I don't have much of an impression of Su Zhengnan from the medical drama "Infinite Vitality".
The only thing that impressed him was a scene where, after the patient's father died, the hospital continued to charge the patient an exorbitant medical fee of 1.8 million yuan, which was eventually discovered by the patient, who then sued the hospital.
When Su Zhengnan arrived at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xuanwu Hospital in Beijing by taxi.
It's almost 8 a.m.
After getting out of the car, Su Zhengnan stood at the entrance of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xuanwu Hospital, took out his mobile phone, and made a call to the director of "Infinite Vitality".
The director's contact information was naturally given to him by Liang Guanhua.
Otherwise, even if Su Zhengnan arrived on set, he wouldn't be able to contact the director to make arrangements for him.
Not long after, a middle-aged man, probably in his forties, walked out of the hospital.
This man had a very simple face, wore glasses, and greeted us with a smile:
"You must be Dr. Su Zhengnan, the school doctor at the Beijing Film Academy?"
"Ah, yes, I'm Su Zhengnan. You're the director?"
Su Zhengnan reached out and shook hands with the other party.
Xu Dadong looked at him with a smile and said, "Yes, I am the director of this drama. My name is Xu Dadong. You can just call me Lao Xu."
Su Zhengnan was actually unfamiliar with the directing profession, neither in his previous life nor in this one.
However, this director Xu Dadong is still somewhat well-known in the TV drama industry.
He later directed the TV series "Serious Cases Squad 6" and "Emergency Room Stories," so he can be considered a pretty good director.
Su Zhengnan smiled slightly and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you today, Director Xu. I'm a complete novice when it comes to acting!"
Xu Dadong laughed and said, "This is a medical drama. Dr. Su, you are a doctor, aren't you? Besides, your role isn't that big. You can just play yourself, and there won't be any problems."
"Well... okay, I'll follow your arrangements, Director Xu."
Su Zhengnan smiled and nodded, then followed Xu Dadong into the hospital.
This is filming!
It's impossible to occupy the entire hospital.
The crew of "Infinite Vitality" only rented the fourth and fifth floors of the hospital's outpatient department as filming backdrops; for other filming, they only needed to move around in other departments of the hospital.
Xu Dadong led Su Zhengnan to the fifth floor of the outpatient clinic and then introduced the place to everyone.
No one in the room recognized Su Zhengnan, this special guest actor who had suddenly appeared, so they simply smiled and nodded in greeting before no one spoke to him.
Xu Dadong smiled and patted his shoulder lightly, then called over the makeup artist and said to Su Zhengnan:
"Go with the makeup artist to get your makeup done first, then change into your white coat. We'll be filming your cameo scene today, and we'll try to finish it in one day. Is that alright?"
"Uh, okay, no problem."
Su Zhengnan nodded, turned around and followed the makeup artist toward the dressing room.
Fortunately, the makeup for doctors doesn't need to be too elaborate, so the makeup didn't take long and was done quickly.
After the makeup was done.
Su Zhengnan sat to the side, looking at the script in his hand, which contained his lines.
It's very simple; it's just a few professional medical terms.
At this moment, director Xu Dadong walked over and greeted Su Zhengnan:
"Dr. Su, get ready, it's your turn."
"Okay, sure."
Su Zhengnan stood up, nodded, and then walked to the side of the camera as instructed by the director to wait.
At this moment, an actor playing a patient is already lying on the hospital bed waiting for filming to begin.
The other main actors were also standing by the hospital bed, all wearing white coats. They all looked somewhat familiar, but Su Zhengnan just couldn't recall their names.
It's obvious that he must have watched the shows these lead actors starred in before.
I just don't know the names of these actors.
Director Xu Dadong glanced at the camera, then picked up a megaphone and shouted to the set:
"Attention all departments! 3, 2, 1, Action!"
As soon as the director finished speaking...
The actors on set immediately got into character, each acting out their lines according to their scripts.
The main actors pushed the patient lying next to the hospital bed to one side.
The actor playing the male lead said according to his script lines: "The patient's current condition is quite dangerous and requires immediate surgery, otherwise his life may be in danger."
"Quickly, get him into the emergency room."
The other actress, who played a doctor, nodded in agreement.
Their acting looks just like that of real doctors, but there are still many differences in the details compared to real doctors.
Su Zhengnan stood off-camera watching, waiting for the patient to be near death before it was his turn to step in.
Sudden.
The "patient" lying on the hospital bed began to convulse. His acting was very realistic. His mouth was twisted to one side and his limbs were trembling incessantly.
"Oh no, the patient has started convulsing! Defibrillate immediately!"
The male lead immediately shouted to the scene.
What the heck?
Should an electric shock be used to defibrillate a patient who is having convulsions?
Is this really that unprofessional?
Su Zhengnan pursed his lips speechlessly, but it was about time for him to make his appearance.
Immediately, Su Zhengnan took a deep breath and stepped into the camera's view.
Several other actors also walked into the frame with him; they were the actors who played the hospital director and hospital administrators in the drama, and they were all relatively old.
