Chapter 230 Liu Xiaoli: You are a shameless disciple! (Please subscribe!)

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The crew gathered around and fired the salute together.

Flower petals scattered all over Liu Yifei's body.

Lin Xuan held the flowers and handed them to her: "Congratulations to Sissi, the second drama and the first movie have been completed!"

"Thank you Lin... Director Lin, thank you Brother Deng Chao, thank you all!"

Liu Yifei happily bowed and thanked everyone.

"Camera, come here and take pictures."

"coming."

After taking the group photo, Lin Xuan shouted:

"Okay, everyone, hurry up and clean up. I'll treat you to a supper later and hold a wedding banquet for Liu Yifei."

"Thank you, Director Lin!"

I heard there was a late night snack and everyone was very excited.

…………

At around eleven o'clock, the crew was ready.

At this time, most restaurants in Hengdian were closed, and only barbecue restaurants were still open.

Lin Xuan picked a store with a large area and good taste. Several buses rushed over and covered the upper and lower floors of the store.

The shop owner was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear when he met the big business.

On the spot, I tore two pieces of Chinese rice and distributed them to the crew one by one. Then I woke up my sleeping wife and children and asked them to help serve food and wine.

The weather in Hengdian is hot, so eating barbecue and drinking cold beer are the perfect combination.

Bottles of big green sticks were poured into her mouth on the table, which made Liu Yifei a little greedy.

"Mom, I want to drink some beer."

Liu Xiaoli turned her head and glanced at her.

Give you a look and let you slowly experience it.

"I'm a college student now, so I can drink beer."

Liu Yifei still wants to fight for it.

"You're not of age yet, so you can't drink."

Liu Xiaoli's tone did not allow for rejection.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan handed over a can: "You can't drink wine. Let's drink some alcoholic beverages."

Liu Yifei took it and asked: "What is this?"

"Pineapple beer is delicious."

"Mom." Liu Yifei held the can and turned to look at her.

Liu Xiaoli didn't want to offend Lin Xuan, so she could only sigh and said: "You can only drink one can."

"Thank you, Mom."

She smiled and opened the can, poured the wine into the cup, and took a sip.

"Pineapple flavor, delicious."

After more than an hour, the atmosphere of the closing banquet reached its peak.

"Sissi, have you eaten enough? Let's go back and rest first."

Liu Xiaoli wiped her mouth and thought it was too noisy here, so she was ready to take her away.

She knew very well that the crew kept drinking and would not be able to leave for another hour.

"I am full."

Liu Yifei drank wine and turned slightly red.

She shook the can and found that it was still alive.

"I'll leave after toasting."

Not wanting to waste it, she stood up and went to other tables to toast.

Liu Xiaoli nodded in agreement.

There was a table of guests who got drunk and stared at the barbecue restaurant proprietress.

"This girl has such a nice figure."

"What's wrong? He's so fat."

"You know what the heck, this kind of fat girl is the best. In the words of the director, she is very smooth."

Liu Yifei happened to pass by, looked at the proprietress, frowned and asked: "What does it mean to be moist?"

She asked Lin Xuan before.

The answer is hydrated skin.

But this landlady is almost forty and has been working in a barbecue restaurant all year round. Her skin is in very poor condition and is not moisturized at all.

"Run means plenty of water."

The man drank too much and said casually.

"Where is the water?"

With her current level of knowledge, she can only think of the biological water content of the human body.

Or the phrase "women are made of water" in "A Dream of Red Mansions".

"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter after hearing this.

"It's hard to say. You can go back and ask your mother."

"Oh fine."

After toasting with a round of wine and finishing the last sip of pineapple beer, Liu Yifei said goodbye to everyone and took the car back to the hotel in advance.

As soon as she walked into the room, she couldn't wait to ask: "Mom, they say it's very moist, which means there's a lot of water. Where exactly is there a lot of water?"

Liu Xiaoli was slipping on her slippers, and she was stunned when she heard this.

"Who did you listen to?"

"People from the crew."

Liu Xiaoli's face turned pale and red.

This bastard Lin Xuan actually dared to lie to me!

She suddenly remembered what Lin Xuan had said to her in the afternoon.

"Sister Xiaoli is very moist!"

“*￥%￥&*%#@#￥%*##T^*&*……”

Liu Yifei frowned and said, "Mom, why are you swearing?"

"What's wrong with scolding him? Scolding him is considered a light thing!"

Liu Xiaoli was so angry that her chest hurt!

When he said this in the afternoon, there was something wrong with the expression on his face.

She was stupid and didn't pay attention at the time, but looking back now, she was teasing her!

"Then you can't say bad words."

"I... am a slut, shameless!"

She held it back for a long time before she came up with these two curse words that were not too dirty.

"Mom, who are you talking about?"

"Who else could it be? Let me tell you, except for work, don't interact with Lin Xuan in private. He is not a good person."

"You said it all."

Liu Xiaoli grabbed her ear: "I said it, but did you listen?"

"I listen, I listen."

Liu Yifei quickly begged for mercy. When her ears were free again, she asked in a low voice:

“So what does having more water mean?”

…………

Early the next morning, Lin Xuan received a text message on his cell phone.

[Brother Lin Xuan, I have already gone to the airport and am preparing to return to the capital. Goodbye! 】

Lin Xuan looked at his watch: "What time is it? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Who's worried?"

Huang Shengyi leaned his head over.

"Sissi and the others have already gone to the airport."

"Oh, I guess it's time to prepare for the start of school. Freshmen are always full of fantasies about college life."

"Ignore her, get up quickly, you have a show today."

Today we mainly film the scenes between Shen Lian and Zhou Miaotong.

Mr. Yan was captured by the Jinyi Guards. Zhou Miaotong was worried about him and asked Shen Lian to help rescue him.

However, he was severely tortured in prison and was already dying.

He brought a message to Zhou Miaotong, and then asked Shen Lian to kill him.

In order to relieve his pain, Shen Lian ended his life with a head-locking move.

After getting the news, Zhou Miaotong collapsed completely and told Shen Lian the truth.

Compared with the original version, Lin Xuan added a two-minute scene in which the Zhou family was ransacked.

Then came the battle between Shen Lian and Zhao Jingzhong.

Since the narrow space was not conducive to performance, Zhao Jingzhong used the spear in his hand to press down on Shen Lian and beat him.

However, Shen Lian's blood tank was too thick, and Zhao Jingzhong did not dare to risk his life, so he took the opportunity and fell downstairs.

The last scene is the scene where Shen Lian carries Zhou Miaotong on his back.

In the dark streets, there is heavy snow in the sky. Shen Lian is wearing black clothes and Zhou Miaotong is wearing red clothes, forming a strong contrast.

Two days later, Zhou Miaotong's scenes were filmed and Huang Shengyi was officially wrapped.

Everyone in the crew had another midnight snack happily.

The second female lead has already held a wedding banquet, so the first female lead must also have one, so we can’t favor one over the other.

However, just an hour into the closing banquet, the core figures of the banquet left early. Not long after, Lin Xuan also stood up and left.

It's around two o'clock in the morning, and the crew and director have a private suite.

Lin Xuan put on a comfortable bathrobe after taking a shower.

He walked to the balcony and sat down, lit a cigarette and looked up at the stars.

Ah, how vast the universe is, and how small humans on earth are...

In sage mode, all men are philosophers and astronomers.

But with Lin Xuan's ability, if he was given another ten minutes, he would be able to get out of this state.

Accompanied by the sound of getting dressed, Huang Shengyi got up from the bed, took two bottles of water and walked to the balcony to sit down.

"Sorry for waking you up."

"It's okay, I haven't fallen asleep the whole time."

"Oh, I'm so excited."

Huang Shengyi took a sip of water, his expression was shy and he didn't know how to answer.

Lin Xuan didn't tease her and changed the subject to talk about other things.

"By the way, what date do you leave? I'll ask the driver to take you to the airport."

"I don't want to go back to school, I want to stay on the set."

"Why? If you don't go back to school, won't the teacher care?"

"Acting requires practice, and the teacher also encourages us to join more group filming."

"Your scenes are already finished, so you can't learn anything by staying on the set."

"Stupid, I stayed here to accompany you. Aren't you going to the prairie? I haven't been there yet. I just happened to be going with the crew."

Huang Shengyi looked at Lin Xuan with the happy expression of a little girl in love on her face.

Lin Xuan's heart sank, and he had a bad feeling.

This girl must have misunderstood something.

We are just doing import and export business, without any emotion involved.

"The crew is very busy, and I don't need your company."

"What do you mean by this?"

Huang Shengyi's face turned pale.

Lin Xuan smoked a cigarette and said seriously: "The prairie is far away from the urban area. The conditions there are very difficult. If you are weak, it is better not to go and go back to school."

Hearing this, Huang Shengyi completely understood what he meant, and his eyes immediately turned red.

She wanted to ask Lin Xuan, what did these days mean to him?

But the answer to such a question only hurts more.

In order to maintain the last trace of dignity, she still suppressed the anger in her heart and said calmly:

"I understand, I will return to the capital tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll ask my assistant to book a ticket for you and arrange for someone to pick you up."

"Thank you so much."

"You're welcome. You can go in and sleep. I'll go to the hall and read for a while."

Lin Xuan got up and walked out of the bedroom.

When the door closed, Huang Shengyi buried his head in his knees, and tears rolled down his face.

…………

In September, schools at all levels across the country welcome the start of school.

I don’t know how many students have not finished their homework.

On the roadside, at breakfast shops, on buses...everywhere there are scenes of students making up for homework.

As expected, Huang Shengyi and Liu Yifei became the most beautiful boys in the school after starting school at Nortel.

A group of people gathered around them asking questions, some asking about Lin Xuan's private life, and some about the situation of the movie "Xiu Chun Dao".

Most of them are flattering and flattering them, hoping to get closer to them and get a chance to get close to Lin Xuan.

Even teachers from Nortel began to pay attention to them.

Liu Yifei has made a movie and a TV series, and is the youngest student since the school was founded.

With so many auras attached to her, she is even more popular than Huang Shengyi.

The two occasionally meet on campus, greet each other cordially, and go to the cafeteria to eat together.

In the eyes of outsiders, the two of them have worked together in movies and must be as close as sisters.

In fact, the relationship between the two is not very good.

Meeting and greeting, eating together, etc. are all social etiquette learned on the set.

Even if the other person is unhappy, they still maintain the friendship of nodding acquaintances.

A few days after school started, Lin Xuan often received calls from Liu Yifei.

The little girl went to college for the first time and was full of freshness about everything around her.

Share any interesting things you encounter with him.

She also carefully introduced the classmates in the class to him.

Lin Xuan listened for a long time and found that there were many familiar names.

Jiang Yiyan, Zhou Yang, Luo Jin, Zhu Yawen...

Although Nortel's class 02 is not as good as class 96, its success rate is not low and it can be considered a star class.

It's a pity that the most popular person in the grade is not in the acting department.

…………

Time flies, it’s mid-September.

The crew finished filming the scene in which Lu Jianxing was escorted to the execution ground and beheaded, and all the scenes in Hengdian were filmed.

"Tomorrow, Group A will go to the grassland with me, and the rest of the group will disband. A closing banquet will be arranged in the evening. Everyone except Group A will have a good time and have fun."

"Oh...thank you, Director Lin."

Lin Xuan took the crew to the closing banquet. He sat there for an hour, toasted a few glasses of wine, and then got up and left.

He knew in his heart that as long as the leader was present, his employees would not be able to have fun.

Go to bed early and get up early, talk nothing all night.

The next morning, members of Group A and several leading actors took a flight to Hohhot.

After landing, we took a train for two hours, and then chartered several buses to drive for half an hour to the grassland scenic spot reserved by the crew.

After getting out of the car, Lin Xuan took a deep breath and felt relaxed and happy.

"The endless grassland is so beautiful."

"Prairie and ocean, life would be incomplete without experiencing these two places in person."

"There are horses and sheep over there. It's exactly like the grassland I imagined."

Not only Lin Xuan, but other members of the crew also love the grassland very much.

"You can stay a few more days if you like. The crew rented it for a week. You can do whatever you want during this period."

"You're right, let's go and ride a horse."

Lin Xuan and several leading actors mounted horses and ran wild on the grassland.

All the crew members have been living on the grassland these days, and the staff have already started setting up tents.

After a day of rest, we started shooting the next day.

Shen Lian and Ding Xiu chased Zhao Jingzhong and his gang to the junction of Daming and Houjin.

Shen Lian took the weapons of his eldest brother and third brother and vowed to kill Zhao Jingzhong.

At this time, a group of Houjin cavalry came, speaking Manchu they did not understand.

The original director of Time and Space once talked about the issue of language.

He said that despite all social contacts at that time, he could not find anyone who could speak Manchu, so he had to make do with Mongolian.

This is true.

There are less than 2000 people in China who can speak Manchu proficiently, so it’s really hard to find them.

Lin Xuan's energy was much greater than his. After some searching, he finally found someone who could speak Manchu.

But after changing the language, the joke about Bibala Zhao Jingzhong disappeared.

"Are you betraying the Ming Dynasty and paying the money?"

"These two Han people are enemies!"

Although Ding Xiu didn't understand, he also knew that those people came with bad intentions.

He struck the horse on the butt with the back of his sword and charged at the thirteen-man cavalry by himself.

In the original time and space, he only killed one and the rest passed by using montage techniques.

But by analyzing the positions of the corpses, Ding Xiu apparently took advantage of the terrain in the surrounding woods to kill them.

This section is Ding Xiu's highlight moment. Lin Xuan chose to shoot it live to show his intelligence, wit and bravery.

Two days later, Ding Xiu walked away and the scene was successfully filmed.

The crew added a scene of the three brothers running wildly on the grassland as an Easter egg.

"Xiu Chun Dao" is officially finished.

At the bonfire party in the evening, several leading actors sat together and chatted while eating roasted whole lamb.

"Hey, time flies so fast. Two months have passed in the blink of an eye."

"The main reason is that our crew's shooting progress is too fast. The two-hour movie was shot in less than two months."

Lin Xuan laughed and said: "With a budget of only 1500 million, where will the funds come from if we film slowly? It would be better to finish filming early, do post-production early, and then release it to make money."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Several people laughed out loud.

When "Xiu Chun Knife" was first released, some media questioned Lin Xuan's new movie, saying that he made the movie just to defraud fans of their money.

If mainland China's money-making works are of this level, then the film industry will truly rise.
