Chapter 298 Turn on the Camera and Shoot

"Thieves" pushed the highest box office of domestic films forward to 228 million.

This number seems a bit scary to many people.

After all, there are too many commercial films that cannot achieve this result from release to release.

At the grand celebration banquet, Han Sanping held a microphone and talked eloquently.

"The success of this movie is a very good signal. The era of high box office has finally arrived..."

The people below all smiled and listened carefully.

Ren Zhonglun was sitting in the front row, his mouth slightly twitching, "He's starting to pretend again..."

After a long time, amid applause, Han Sanping smashed the ice with a hammer.

Inside is a card with the words "901 million" written on it, which represents the achievements of "Thieves".

Today's celebration banquet was attended by almost all the important film companies in the industry, as well as a large number of performing arts stars and big names in the industry. It was very lively.

Social entertainment is always the constant theme of this kind of occasion.

"Why didn't you see Director Lin and the others?" Many people had this question.

Looking around, I only saw Yue Jun from Lin Nan Pictures, but not the real owner.

"It seems like The Fault in Our Stars is on." Someone mentioned.

"So fast! There's no press conference?"

"It's quite low-key..."

…………

After nearly 4 months of filming, "Gong Lock Heart Jade" has finally been completed.

"Mimi, we'll work together again if we have the chance in the future."

Feng Shaofeng, who plays the opposite role, said to Yang Mi with a smile.

"Okay, if there is a chance, I hope to cooperate with you again." Yang Mi nodded.

"Your company's resources are so good. Maybe we will have to ask you for help in the future, haha..."

Tong Liya and others made a joke at the right time.

Yang Mi was quite happy to hear these compliments. After all, "Thieves" was all the news these days.

Back to the hotel and started packing.

"I heard from people in the company that Director Lin's "The Fault in Our Stars" has started filming."

Zeng Jia mentioned it. She felt it was necessary to let Yang Mi know about this.

As expected, the latter was stunned for a moment and said with some frustration:

"Just turn it on, I don't have a chance anyway. I'm going to take a month's rest, so don't answer my notifications during this time..."

Zeng Jia nodded. During this period, Yang Mi first missed "Pacific Rim", and then was eliminated from "The Beautiful Girl". She also missed out on "The Fault in Our Stars". It was really shocking. She should take a good rest. .

…………

"The Fault in Our Stars" was filmed near the capital.

Liu Yifei, who put on makeup, wore a hospital gown and an endotracheal tube, was already waiting to start filming.

Next to her is Liu Xiaoli, who plays the heroine's mother, and a doctor in a white coat.

"Is the character's status clear during the shooting?" Lin Nan asked.

"Yeah, it's clear. I've been sick for many years, and I've given up on myself. Although my body is weak, I still talk about the doctor's comforting words with great energy, a little impatient and indifferent..."

Miss Liu nodded lightly, with a sweet smile on her face. It feels very good to be on the same crew as Lin Nan.

Lin Nan looked at Liu Xiaoli and the actor playing the doctor, "Get ready."

"action!"

…

"You should insist on taking medicine to block it, and it will get better."

"What's the point of persisting? Can you become a normal person?" Liu Yifei tried her best to act as she wanted.

"Baby, listen to the doctor, you will be fine." Liu Xiaoli's lips and voice trembled slightly, with a motherly and kind smile on her face.

Lin Nan looked at the scene in the camera and nodded inwardly.

Liu Xiaoli successfully brainwashed herself, her voice and the slight trembling of her lips were perfect.

“Did you go to that support group I suggested?”

"A support group? What is that?"

Liu Yifei showed that careless and carefree expression, just like she sometimes cheated with Lin Nan.

"There are some people inside who have the same 'experience' as you. You need friends and you can't close yourself off like this. You already have symptoms of depression..."

"People with the same 'experience'? Depression? Haha..."

"Shall we try it?"

Liu Xiaoli took the line at the right time, interrupted Liu Yifei's words, her tone was very soft, and her eyes were pleading.

The shot so far has gone smoothly without any mistakes.

Liu Yifei looked up at Liu Xiaoli, their eyes met. After a long time, she finally nodded and agreed.

"Click."

As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, Liu Yifei jumped down from the hospital bed.

"Mom, you acted so well. If you didn't know better, you would think I was really sick..."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Liu Xiaoli's expression turned serious for a moment, interrupting Liu Yifei's laughter.

She looked at her daughter's appearance. This makeup really put her into that kind of mood just now...

"There is a sentence in the script that is very well written: The only thing more tragic than having a terminal illness is having a terminally ill child whose parents wish they could take their own lives."

Liu Xiaoli looked at Lin Nan and muttered.

"Well, that's what Auntie said."

…………

In the afternoon, the crew changed scenes.

When a group of acquaintances met, Liu Yifei couldn't believe it.

"Ah, why are you here?"

"Surprise, right? Unexpected, right? Director Lin called us to guest star as patients, haha..."

In addition to Zhu Yawen and Huang Bo, Lin Nan also invited many people from Level 02 to guest star, Jiang Yiyan, Luo Jin...

When everyone meets, it is inevitable that they chat for a while.

Huang Bo will play the core figure of the "patient mutual aid group".

"Everyone, hurry up and get ready. Those who need to change clothes should change clothes, those who need to put on makeup should put on makeup, and get Huang Bo's guitar ready."

"Very good, I will sing a few more songs later."

"By the way, is this afternoon's scene the scene where Director Lin and Yifei first meet in the script?"

"Yes, I turned around, and he didn't look at the road, so we bumped into each other." Liu Yifei replied with a smile.

An hour later, everyone was ready.

"Action!"

A black car drove slowly and stopped.

The driver was Liu Xiaoli, who was carrying Liu Yifei.

Lu Yang sat in front of the monitor. He had nothing to do these days, so he volunteered to come and be the assistant director for a few days.

Lin Nan was already preparing his own entrance shot, ready to start at any time.

When the character played by Miss Liu walked into the gate and walked to the elevator entrance, she saw that it was full and there were wheelchairs, so she stopped immediately.

When he turned back, he bumped into Lin Nan who was walking in from behind with his head down, and fell into his arms...

"Sorry..."

"My fault..."

The two said subconsciously, Liu Yifei in front and Lin Nan in the back.

The four looked at each other for a few seconds, and smiled, feeling a little awkward and different...

"Cut, the last shot is not good, do it again."

When Lu Yang said this, everyone around him was stunned.

One by one, they looked at Lu Yang, their eyes full of surprise: Brother, do you know what you are saying?

"Director Lu, are you going to rebel?"

Huang Bo made a joke on the side, making Zhu Yawen and others laugh.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei walked over, "Let me take a look."

Two minutes later, Lin Nan nodded, and he was confused.

"One more shot, the last shot is indeed not up to standard.

The eyes are not the kind of first sight, but the eyes of lovers, it's out of play..."

A group of people gave Lu Yang a thumbs up, awesome.

Three consecutive NGs, the fourth time passed.

Lin Nan didn't expect that the first scene he appeared in would be so ill-fated.

"Still laughing?"

Liu Yifei ignored Lin Nan and just smiled with her mouth covered, as if NG had nothing to do with her.

…………

"After the next scene, we'll call it a day."

"Okay, Director Lin."

All the guest actors' scenes are here.

"Action!"

Everyone sat in a circle.

Huang Bo played and sang a song with a guitar in his arms. After the song, he stood up.

"Welcome everyone to the 'Patient Mutual Aid Group'. There are a few new friends today. Let's introduce ourselves again. Who will go first?"

Jiang Yiyan stood up first. She only had this one guest shot.

"Hello everyone, I have acute myeloid leukemia. I hope that everyone can care for each other and encourage each other in the future and become good friends..."

Next was Luo Jin, "... lymphoma..."

……

When a group of people introduced themselves, in the camera, Lin Nan was peeking at Liu Yifei from time to time.

The latter obviously noticed it and felt a little embarrassed. He looked away to avoid embarrassment, but couldn't help looking back...

The first meeting between two young people was a wonderful feeling...

...

Zhu Yawen stood up, "...Retinoblastoma, my eye is fake..."

Lin Nan rolled up his pants, "Bone cancer, I had my leg amputated before..."

Watching the scene, the calf was wrapped in green cloth, and special effects were used to make a prosthesis in the later stage.

After Liu Yifei's character introduced herself, everyone looked at Huang Bo.

It's time to show his acting skills.

Huang Bo sat there, legs clasped, looking lonely, "I, I...testicular cancer...has been removed..."

"Oh..."

A group of people couldn't help but feel sorry.

...

The first day of shooting ended before 6 pm.

Because it was shot near the capital, the crew members could go home.

The news of the start of "The Fault in Our Stars" has appeared in the media, but there are no photos.

"Director Lin's new film "Star Luck" has started shooting today in a low-key manner."

"Director Lin Nan did not attend the celebration party for "Thieves". One of the leading actors, Luo Jin, was not seen at the scene. The latter is suspected to be a guest star in "Star Luck"..."

In order to get up early in the morning and not be lazy, Liu Yifei went to bed early in the evening, and asked Lin Nan to call her to have breakfast and go to the crew tomorrow.

Lin Nan was browsing the news and saw a lot of interesting things.

This year's Hundred Flowers Awards cancelled the screenwriter award, which aroused protests from all screenwriters including filmmakers.

The pressure of public opinion forced the association to take a step back and promised to apply for the restoration of this award, which was really not easy.

Because the previous films of Lin Nan Pictures were all popular, the publicity effect of "33 Days of Broken Love" was unexpectedly good.

The discussion and attention were high, and there was a trend of becoming a dark horse in the November box office.

...

"The crew of "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" made a big adjustment to the shooting plan?"

Lin Nan was happy to see this news. I think "Legend of the White Snake" should be filming, and people can't leave...
