Wang Yueheng stopped not because he was actually frightened by the staff member's loud voice.
Instead, he stood there, quietly watching the scene being filmed, his mind racing to recall which scene from the script it was.
"Oh, right, I remember now~"
Soon, a clear movie scene appeared in his mind.
According to the original play.
The plot here should be that the jinxed "Niu Geng" and toy factory owner Li Chenggong encountered a mudslide while traveling by train, and were forced to transfer to a bus in Guangshui County to go to Jiangkou District of Wujiang City.
Then, I transferred to a bus in Jiangkou District to go to Shashi to go home for the Spring Festival.
After parting ways on the green train that encountered a landslide, the unlucky boss and businessman Li Chenggong, by chance, ended up sharing a train with Niu Geng, who was on his way to Shashi to collect debts.
Then, on the bus to Wujiang City, many funny scenes unfolded.
The scene being filmed now depicts the two characters' comedic reunion on the bus.
Besides the two main actors, there's also a "literary youth" who's responsible for looking cool.
Director Xu Zheng, holding a megaphone, finally managed to direct the extras to their positions.
After having the makeup artist do a quick touch-up, I immediately got into the performance.
...
"Boss, why don't you stay at our inn? We have hot water and internet!"
Amidst the loud solicitation of a female hotel employee, Xu Zheng, who had resumed his leading role, walked wearily from a distance, dragging his suitcase.
"Thank you, but no need."
"Boss, boss, our accommodation here is very convenient!"
"No, no..."
"Sir, is this car going to Shashi?"
After repeatedly waving away the women soliciting customers beside him, Xu Zheng went to the bus driver to ask him some questions.
"It only goes as far as the mouth of the Wujiang River. From there, you can transfer to a long-distance bus to Shashi."
The driver, who was waiting for someone to board, answered without looking up in the local accent.
To ensure the performance's effectiveness, the driver was also a local extra, and was himself a long-distance bus driver.
Xu Zheng then asked, "Are there any other direct buses to Shashi?"
"This is the only car available. Take it or leave it."
The driver looked up impatiently and replied.
"Hey, boss, stay at our inn! It's very comfortable!"
Just then, the loud-voiced female employee of the hotel came over again and enthusiastically pulled Xu Zheng, who looked like the boss.
"I said I'm not staying here! I'm not staying here!"
"Can't I stay here?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zheng, who was already feeling overwhelmed about taking the bus home, impatiently shouted at the other person.
In order to get rid of the loud-voiced woman soliciting customers, Xu Zheng, who plays Li Chenggong, didn't have time to think and simply gritted his teeth, turned around, and got on the bus behind him.
"Pfft~"
"This detail is so interesting..."
"This female employee is really stubborn."
Mo Zixue, who was watching the play with Wang Yueheng, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw this down-to-earth scene.
The comedic contrast between the billionaire Kyoto tycoon and the dilapidated bus station and small hotel immediately captivated her.
Even though I had read the script beforehand, I still found it particularly funny to see this scene being filmed in person.
The comedic effect was amplified when Wang Qiang, carrying pots and pans and looking honest and simple, appeared in the crowd!
Xu Zheng, sitting in the front passenger seat of the bus, looked at the figure of "Niu Geng" that suddenly appeared in the rearview mirror and was speechless.
It seems like the whole process of getting home was ruined by encountering this jinxed country bumpkin, which is why things have been so unlucky.
"Bang bang bang!"
Upon arriving at the bus stop, Wang Qiang immediately banged on the closed bus door, preparing to board.
Hey! Director Wang!
