Chapter 760: The First Shoot
The next day, the weather was sunny and very suitable for filming.
Early in the morning, the logistics crew started to get busy, and the actors were also in place.
The first scene today was the first encounter between the male and female leads.
Xia Qinghan got ready early, sitting in a chair while waiting for s.h.i.+ Shuhang.
When s.h.i.+ Shuhang appeared, there was a slight shadow under his eyes. His complexion was a little haggard, and it was obvious that he had not rested well.
Xia Qinghan looked over curiously, very puzzled.
Because she was very concerned about s.h.i.+ Shuhang, she knew that he came back last night around ten o’clock.
Even if he slept late, it wasn’t so bad, right? Did he stay up late? Or was it insomnia?
However, she was not familiar with s.h.i.+h Shuhang, so she could not ask too many questions.
s.h.i.+ Shuhang had a makeup artist and a stylist with him who lined up to style him.
After the makeup artist’s skillful work, when he got up, he was a handsome guy, and none of his previous haggardness could be seen.
Xia Qinghan hesitated for a moment, but still walked over.
“Brother Hang, are you free? Can we rehea.r.s.e our scene?”
The two of them were the male and female leads, and the shooting would start later, so they needed to rehea.r.s.e at least one scene, right?
“Okay,” s.h.i.+ Shuhang nodded and agreed.
Although he still hadn’t recovered from last night’s incident, he had started working, so he should concentrate a little.
After s.h.i.+ Shuhang’s agreement, Xia Qinghan became happy, immediately taking the script and rehearsing lines with him.
When s.h.i.+ Huan came over, he was very satisfied when he saw them being so diligent.
Although their acting skills were not necessarily great, their att.i.tude was right on!
“Come, let me tell you about what will happen later.”
s.h.i.+ Huan walked over and talked to them about the blocking and emotions of the next shot.
Xia Qinghan held her script and listened to s.h.i.+ Huan’s explanation with a very serious air.
s.h.i.+ Shuhang, on the other hand, was a bit distracted.
“What is going on with you?” s.h.i.+ Huan gave a glare and lightly tapped him on the head. “You went out last night and partied, and you still haven’t come back to your senses?”
s.h.i.+ Shuhang couldn’t help but blush and hurriedly shook his head, “It’s
nothing, keep talking.”
s.h.i.+ Huan hummed, but did not continue to criticize him. Young people were thin-skinned, so it was not good to say too much.
“Understand?” s.h.i.+ Huan finally asked.
“Understood.”
The first scene was the encounter between the male protagonist, Shangguan Cheng, and the female protagonist, Chu Tong, at school.
It was a cheesy story of Cinderella and Prince Charming.
The heroine was an ordinary girl who got the opportunity to attend an aristocratic university because she helped an old man on the street— never mind why the university did not have an entrance exam.
On the first day of school, she collided with the male protagonist.
When she tried to avoid a dog that suddenly ran out, her bike went sideways.
It just so happened that the accident was on a slope, and she grabbed the handlebars and rushed downward. The male lead appeared just in time for the bike to crash into him.
The male lead, who was suddenly in an accident, was furious, and naturally didn’t have a good att.i.tude towards the female lead.
As a result, the two of them became enemies.
In fact, this story was very melodramatic, and what happened afterward was even more melodramatic, gathering all sorts of shocking plot twists.
However, this kind of melodramatic story actually got great ratings!
The most important thing was that although this story was cheesy, its actors had good looks, and the costumes, the surrounding environment, the vehicles, the accessories, and so on, were very much in place.
The audience would keep watching while complaining about the show’s ridiculous lines; it was quite a spectacle.
“Attention all departments… Action!”
