The mountain road was difficult to walk, and the mountain wind happened to blow up again. The road conditions into the village were not safe, and the circuit repairman said it would take a week to arrive.The villagers are not surprised by this, but the crew is worried.

There was no circuit in Group B, and even the most basic PAR lighting equipment could not be guaranteed. Jiang Bing was afraid that he would be "on vacation" for a week, and the actors would not be able to maintain their state of being in the show.

The chief director thought about it, and directly dragged the shooting process to the scene of "Qi Yuan and Xiao Su getting along".

At this point in the story, the wedding of Xiao Su and Qi Yuan is already a certainty.The three members of the Qi family came to Sujia Village on the eve of the wedding under the pretext of "consoling Sister Su".Due to the difference in status between the two villages, the village head entertained them warmly and gave them a chance to be alone intentionally or unintentionally.

Everything after that happened naturally, and Qi Yuan spent a "happy" time with Xiao Su with the expectation of a happy marriage.In getting along, Qi Yuan's love is like a gurgling stream, which flows into the source called "Xiaosu" little by little.He even felt that Sister Su's accident was the blessing of the gods, otherwise he would never know that there is another person in this world who can match him so well.

Jiang Bing is very relieved about these scenes. After excluding all complicated external factors, it is essentially a common heart-pounding scene. It makes no sense that Qiu Xingfeng and Lu Xiumu can't even handle this kind of scene.

Director Jiang also gave them the greatest trust, and went directly to another group filmed at the same time, focusing on the collision of "Sister Su and Qi's parents".

After the filming started, Zhao Yang stayed with Lu Xiumu and his team.Most film and television screenwriters have an inherent process when writing "heartbeat" scenes. Although Zhao Yang is not good at this kind of scenes, he has learned a lot from this template.

In a nutshell, it is divided into three steps. First, give the two protagonists a private "heart-to-heart" opportunity; then use external props to create physical contact, such as touching fingers inadvertently, or "unavoidable" hugs; finally, outsiders booing, Say something like "you are worthy of the truth", and break through the layer of window paper between the protagonists that is easily broken.

It is inevitable that the scenes that are not surprising will become clichés, but it cannot be denied that this is in line with the love pattern of most people.

At the same time, Zhao Yang is very smart. In order to highlight the abnormality of this marriage, he directly reversed these three steps.

The disordered sequence foreshadows the absurdity of their feelings.

The first few scenes progressed very smoothly, and they were almost all one-off, and only repeated a few times when close-up shots were needed.Soon there was a "famous scene" between the two of them. During lunch time, Zhao Yang specially gave them a play lecture.

Zhao Yang: "Although this scene is not the focus of "The Wedding Banquet", it is an important turning point in the story. You try to go through it one by one, because I want the camera to pull back and make that kind of scene with an angle between the track and the scene... …you can understand, I don’t know what this term is called.”

"Slanted rail push." ​​Lu Xiumu added.

"That's right, that's it." Zhao Yang paused, rubbing the greasy tabletop with his fingertips, "I'm not worried about your acting ability, I mainly want to talk about the status of Qi Yuan and Xiao Su."

Lu Xiumu put down the bowl and chopsticks, propped his chin with the palm of his hand: "Say it."

Qiu Xingfeng clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction: "I found that you filmmakers are willing to take 'overtime' as fun, and you don't stop at mealtime."

After that, he picked up a chopstick dish for Lu Xiumu, and said in a gentle tone, "Eat more, don't worry."

"I'm full." Lu Xiumu perfunctory him.

"Why do you act like a child and need someone to coax you to eat?" Qiu Xingfeng pushed his bowl forward, "There are no roasted sweet potatoes for you to add to your meal today."

It suddenly occurred to Lu Xiumu that during the few days they lived together, Qiu Xingfeng fed himself extra meals in different ways every night like feeding small animals, which made him feel like he had gained weight.

"I want to control my weight." Lu Xiumu complained, but he picked up the chopsticks in disbelief, took two quick bites, and handed the empty bowl to Qiu Xingfeng, "It's over."

He ate in a hurry, and in order to speak, all the food was on the side of his mouth.

Qiu Xingfeng looked at him, and poked his bulging cheek with his index finger.

It felt good, and Qiu Xingfeng poked it again without holding back.

Lu Xiumu froze for a second, then knocked off his hand speechlessly: "Is it fun?"

"En." Qiu Xingfeng opened his eyes, and the corners of his lips rose uncontrollably.

"Which one of us is a child?" Lu Xiumu teased him, "Just to remind you, you are going to be 30 soon."

Qiu Xingfeng immediately made a gesture of surrender.

The attitude they get along with is very natural. When others see each other, they would say "the relationship between the two teachers is really good", but Zhao Yang frowned indifferently.

No, this state is wrong.

To be more clear, Lu Xiumu's state is wrong.

The crew is the easiest place to develop feelings, either to build friendship or to generate disgust.It constitutes a false and real environment, and then imprisons actors with good empathy skills in it, allowing them to feel the behavior and memory of the characters, and it is easy to have violent emotional collisions.

That's why, on the day of the finale, there will always be actors crying.

Qiu Xingfeng could feel the love that Qi Yuan wanted to express, so it was understandable for him to be intimate with Lu Xiumu, but Lu Xiumu couldn't respond——

Xiao Su doesn't love him.

Zhao Yang couldn't speak in front of Qiu Xingfeng, he coughed lightly: "Qi Yuan's family is not as complicated as Xiao Su's, and he doesn't have any conflicts, coupled with his instinctive heartbeat, these are destined to make him talk In the process, be the active one.”

He said to Qiu Xingfeng: "You can make some ambiguous actions, don't hesitate, and don't think about crossing the line. Xiao Su is your fiance, and all your actions are reasonable."

Qiu Xingfeng listened carefully and nodded thoughtfully.

"As for you—" Zhao Yang looked at Lu Xiumu again, "just act according to the script."

He deliberately prolonged the word "script" in an attempt to wake up Lu Xiumu.It's a pity that Lu Xiumu didn't catch this hint, and his eyes still fell on Qiu Xingfeng.

For almost a second, Zhao Yang wanted to ignore it and say, "Even if it's for yourself, don't let Xiao Su fall in love with Qi Yuan."

Not only is it inexplicable but also lacks logic, but Zhao Yang understands the deep meaning behind it-since the "Wedding Banquet" crew chose the "Yin-Yang script" shooting method, no actor can say until the last moment that the script in his hand Just the "correct" one.

Including Lu Xiumu.

Long before the film was registered, Jiang Bing asked Zhao Yang to write three different ending chapters.The first edition is the ending of "Happy Reunion" in Qiu Xingfeng's hand, and the last two editions have "the end of Xiaosu's life" as the fixed frame.

The only difference is Xiaosu's emotional changes.

As early as the moment Sister Su forced the marriage, Xiao Su made a decision - he would die at this foolish wedding banquet.

According to the custom, the two newlyweds who have been selected have to accept the "look up" and "blessing" of everyone in front of God, so the wedding ceremony has always been held in the Marriage Temple.

But Xiao Su wanted to end her life in front of "God".

It is a kind of extremely mean contempt and ridicule.

He would stand on the highest point, mocking the ridiculous beliefs of the villagers, satirizing the sad fate with great absurdity.

At the same time, it is also a kind of bloody revenge.

The sticky blood flowing out of the body will turn into a sharp knife, piercing into Sister Su's heart inch by inch.

Under this trend of the story, Qi Yuan will undoubtedly become the "most innocent" person.If Xiao Su doesn't have any feelings for him, then Qi Yuan is Xiao Su's "tool" to achieve his goal; but if they are in love with each other, Xiao Su's choice will be much more sad, and from another perspective, this kind of "Death" can even arouse the audience's resistance and resonance to "feudal ignorance".

In fact, Zhao Yang is more inclined to "Xiao Su's death is pure revenge".

He once said to Jiang Bing: "If Xiao Su likes Qi Yuan, there will be an extra layer of resistance to deformed customs in his death, and it will also add a layer of 'great' halo to this character in disguise. I don't think it is necessary, just The way of doing things that considers oneself can better reflect the character of the character."

Jiang Bing looked at different scripts and said, "It's not us who decides which script to choose in the end."

"Who is that?"

"Xiao Su's actor." Jiang Bing raised his eyes, "You and I are just spectators outside the play, not the parties who write the story. What I want is a real person with flesh and blood after jumping out of the script."

Thinking of this, Zhao Yang heaved a long sigh, thinking that Jiang Bing, an old bastard, did have something in his stomach, and following this trend, he might not see the ending he expected.

I don't know if Xiao Su influenced Lu Xiumu, or Lu Xiumu influenced Xiao Su...

Accompanied by the voice of "All departments are preparing", Zhao Yang's gaze was drawn to the monitor.

Outside the screen, Xiao Su and Qi Yuan were sitting on the edge of the door. At this moment, there was an awkward atmosphere of "semi-familiarity" between them, and the two were speechless for a while.

Qi Yuan was a little nervous and a little embarrassed. He looked at Xiao Su's side face calmly, but he didn't dare to let his gaze stay for too long.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Su still noticed it: "Why do you always look at me?"

Qi Yuan choked for a moment, then laughed dryly, "You look a lot like Sister Su."

Xiao Su was speechless, and rolled her exaggerated eyes: "We are real siblings. I don't resemble her, so is it possible that I still resemble you?"

Qi Yuan who was bullied was not angry, he lowered his head and smiled: "She is very beautiful."

Xiao Su moved her lips, wanting to say "thank you", but later realized that Qi Yuan was actually complimenting herself by beating around the bush.The voice swirled around his mouth and turned into a dry "oh".

Maybe he sensed the other party's resistance, or he felt that he was aggressive, but Qi Yuan quickly changed the subject: "I saw many books in your room."

"Yes." Xiao Su said, "I like reading."

"Then you must go to the library if you have the chance." Noticing Xiao Su's surprised gaze, Qi Yuan explained: "In order to popularize the level of education, the township built a reading place with its own pocket. There are thousands of books in it. , if you are not in a hurry, you can spend the whole day there, and if you have something to do, you can take it home to read, and you only need to pay a small borrowing fee."

Xiao Su was surprised by what he heard, but he didn't want to appear too ignorant, so he muttered in a low voice, "I never heard of them..."

"Not long after it was built." Qi Yuan said, "I went shopping some time ago, just in time for their opening."

Only then did Xiao Su realize that Qi Yuan was different from herself.He can easily enter the world he desires, just like eating and sleeping.

Xiao Su was both envious and jealous, but also grasped a glimmer of hope: "Tell me more about the things in the town."

Qi Yuan smiled and agreed, from the flat road to various snacks, and finally talked about it until his legs were numb.He stood up and stamped his feet.

"There's more!" Xiao Su didn't want him to stop at all.

Qi Yuan didn't continue talking, turned around and looked at Xiao Su: "Is that why you like things in the town so much?"

"It's fine if you don't want to say it." Xiao Su turned her head angrily.

Qi Yuan took a step forward, hooking his chin lightly with one hand: "Yes, how could you not?"

The eyes of the two collided again.

Qi Yuan said: "In the future, I will not only tell you, but also take you there. When you get married——"

His voice stopped suddenly.Because he suddenly realized that the word "marry" seemed inappropriate for men, and he didn't want to treat Xiao Su as his appendage, nor did he want to despise him.

They are equal.

Qi Yuan changed his words softly: "After we get married, we will go to the town together. If you like, you can stay for a few more days."

He was against the light, and his body reflected a hazy halo.

Perhaps due to the influence of the sun, Xiao Su's eyes also had some tiny spots: "...Really?"

"Really. Not kidding you."

After the last sound disappeared, Qi Yuan bent down and placed a soft kiss on Xiao Su's forehead.

His lips were warm, and there was still a slight dry skin on his lips, which made it uncomfortable to stick to the skin, but Xiao Su felt that everything was perfect.

……

Time seemed to be frozen at this moment, Lu Xiumu's heartbeat overlapped with Xiao Su's, and his neck was also bleeding.He was in a trance, and gradually couldn't tell who the heartbeat came from.

Thoughts were mixed, only one thought remained - how could Xiao Su not like Qi Yuan like this.

He clearly represented his most desired hope.
