Ever since Wu Heng watched an urban idol drama with Master Yang Xiao and his apprentice in the villa in the imperial capital, he has been very interested in the images on the electronic screen.
At this moment, he saw the director calling up the drone footage. He leaned over to take a look and saw himself saving people among the vines at the waterfall. His dark eyes widened even more.
"This guy not only has smooth muscle tones, but also exudes a wild energy, and his body is extremely flexible. Look at the eagle stepping scene, even with wires, you can't achieve this effect. He can be put into the drama without any retouching, it's simply amazing."
The director repeatedly adjusted those frames, and it was obvious that he truly admired Wu Heng's skills.
"Well, I'm here for no other reason than to ask if you're interested in being the male lead's stand-in? Our leading man has been stuck at the waterfall for two days for a martial arts scene, and the daily venue rental costs are driving me bald. If you're willing to help, the price is negotiable."
He glanced at Ye Lan, but didn't use any other words and went straight to the point.
Wu Heng didn't understand and asked again, "What is a substitute?"
The director explained it to him in detail, "Given your skills, you should be able to finish the filming quickly. How about I give you this amount regardless of the time it takes?"
Wu Heng stared at the five fingers, still wondering if five hundred was too much, when he heard Ye Lan's voice beside him say calmly, "Fifty thousand, deal."
Wu Heng: “!!!”
"Okay, let's get started without further ado. I'll have someone prepare something, and you guys come over when you're done." The director immediately ran away, fearing that they would regret it if he was a second late.
Wu Heng silently watched his back disappear on the steps, then turned back to look at Ye Lan, "Fifty thousand, is that too much?"
He bought a bunch of supplements and only spent more than 10,000 yuan.
"Don't you want to go and have some fun?" Ye Lan didn't really care about the money. She just casually offered a price. If it were her, the appearance fee would start at at least five million. "Just take the money."
Wu Heng thought about it and felt that it made sense. He was also happy that he could earn more money to support his family.
By the time the two took the cable car to the other side of the waterfall, the crew was already ready.
The director didn't waste a minute and started to explain to Wu Heng.
The boy was already quite skilled in martial arts, and after going through the scenes with the martial arts instructor twice, filming officially began.
Seeing that he was having fun, Ye Lan walked to the edge of Jiuqu Waterfall, stood on the edge and looked at the green mountains and the rainbows hung by the water vapor in the mountains. He was amazed that the Wu family was very good at finding places, and they actually found such a place with rich spiritual energy to recuperate.
"Um, Ye Lan."
At this moment, a woman's voice came from behind.
Ye Lan turned slightly to the side and looked back, and saw a young woman in a theatrical costume, a white dress with wide sleeves and ancient hair ornaments, approaching and shyly asking, "Can you sign an autograph for me?"
Um?
Ye Lan looked at the autograph book handed over by the other party, his expression unchanged, but his tone was filled with a hint of doubt, "If I remember correctly, you are the queen of the film."
When they were bored on the way here, the driver would occasionally turn on the small TV in the car and play a drama while giving them some scientific knowledge. Among them, this actress was highly respected and is said to be the most popular actress in the country today.
"No, I just have been in this industry longer. Compared with you, it's nothing." The other party was very humble and admired Ye Lan from the bottom of his heart. He immediately posted on Weibo after getting the signature.
'I got my idol's autograph, so happy! [Picture]'
Ye Lan didn't take it seriously at first and continued to enjoy the scenery. She even wanted to meditate on the spot. However, she didn't know that less than ten minutes later, the actress came to her with a cell phone in her hand.
"Ye Lan, I'm sorry, I didn't expect your autograph to be recognized. Now many directors and program crews, as well as a large number of your fans who can't find you have come to the comment section of my Weibo." The actress looked at her pitifully, her face full of guilt.
Ye Lan was puzzled. She looked down at the other person's phone screen and found that under the newly posted Weibo, the comments section was updated in real time and all the messages were looking for her.
"Ah, my Ye Lan has appeared. Is Ye Men going to see the light of day again?"
"Hello, I'm the director of the interview program "Ye Sheng Hua". Could you please tell me Ye Lan's contact information?"
"I'm Director XX. I have a few scripts here. Could you please give them to Ye Lan?"
…
The comments are updated too quickly, with hundreds of them every second, and it soon becomes too much to keep up with.
At this time, the director also came over and said with a helpless smile: "Ms. Ye, you have no idea about your current popularity."
Then he spread out his mobile phone, and the communication app was also full of messages, all of which were asking about Ye Lan's whereabouts.
"I didn't do anything." Ye Lan was speechless for a moment, really unable to understand.
The director smiled bitterly at the leading actress, opened the media software, entered her name and handed it to her.
"Look for yourself. In the past month, your related search terms have reached over 10 billion. This is already the treatment of a superstar."
Ye Lan took it and took a quick look, and found that although he did not appear much, almost every time he appeared in the camera, it would be cut out separately, with various graphic and text analyses, and the traffic was frighteningly high.
All of this happened when she retired. One can imagine how much the program crews and directors longed for the visit of this traffic-heavy figure.
"Haha, actually, the drone also captured that scene of Miss Ye playing the music. I really wanted to release it just now, but I didn't dare." The director scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly. "My small temple can't afford your appearance fee, but I really think it's a pity that the video hasn't been seen. How about I upload it and you can put it on your Weibo?"
As he said that, he turned around and ran to the side, took out a tablet, and when he opened the page, a refreshing melody played.
In the middle of the picture, a girl in white clothes as white as snow stands on a dilapidated observation deck, surrounded by lush trees. She stands there in white clothes and black hair, lowering her eyes and playing the fairy music that only comes from heaven. Colorful butterflies fly from all directions and surround her. The scene is beautiful and strange.
"Beautiful, so beautiful! I was stunned when I saw it." The leading actress held her face in her hands like a fangirl, staring at the video in ecstasy. "Ye Lan, you actually summoned that eagle, right?"
She blurted out the question subconsciously, and only then realized she was being rude. She waved her hands repeatedly to indicate, "You don't have to answer if you don't want to."
Ye Lan didn't shy away from the question and nodded slightly, saying, "I did it. It was just a simple way of controlling the beast with sound."
"Wow, this is not easy at all, it's amazing, okay? I've been to India and seen local people performing by driving snakes with music. Is it the same as yours?" The leading actress was very curious about her.
Ye Lan simply nodded in response to this statement, and replied calmly, "Yeah, about the same."
Actually, they are different.
Driving a specific animal can only be achieved through long-term and repeated training, but she uses the art of taming animals. Through the signals released in the music, she can not only summon all things in the world, but also create endless killings.
