Chapter 29 The Madman
On the other hand, Zhou Jiajia hoped that Zong Ji could join Feng Xia as his senior sister and brother, so he went to find his manager, Sister Yun, who told her to give her an answer in a few days.However, after waiting for a long time, I still haven't heard the news. Taking advantage of my business trip to the company today, I brought it up again.
Sister Yun, who was always very talkative, asked her not to mention this matter very seriously this time.
"Why? Sister Yun, Zong Ji is very good? You believe me? The company will definitely not lose money by signing him!" Zhou Jiajia thought that he hadn't made it clear, "Zong Ji's acting skills are very good, you should know that after watching "Blooming" ,? And he is very obedient and very worry-free."
Sister Yun frowned. What Zhou Jiajia said about Zong Ji was not the same as what she heard about two days ago.
"Is he really as good as you say?" Could there be some misunderstanding?
"Really!" Zhou Jiajia emphasized, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Director Qi, or Director Fang, or other actors who have worked with him. They will all give the same answer as me."
Sister Yun straightened her expression: "If Zong Ji is really like what you said, then I guess he probably offended someone."
"What?" Zhou Jiajia stood up in surprise. How could Zong Ji offend someone?With such a good character, where can he offend others?
"The company has its own process for signing artists. After you told me, I reported Zong Ji's name. The next day, the above gave a reply, saying that Zong Ji was arrogant and had a bad attitude. He didn't meet the signing conditions. .” Sister Yun explained to Zhou Jiajia.
"How is it possible?!" Zhou Jiajia could hardly believe what she heard, "They must have made a mistake, Sister Yun, please ask me again."
Sister Yun asked again.
"The refusal was written by Wang Qian."
Zhou Jiajia joined the company not long ago, but Wang Qian still knew about it. The other party was Jiang Shenxing's manager, and also the manager of the artist business department. His position was higher than that of Sister Yun.
"Why did he write that?"
Sister Yun shook her head. Of course she didn't know, and it was even more impossible for her to ask questions for Zong Ji.
"Please trouble Sister Yun." Zhou Jiajia understood Sister Yun's embarrassment, and sighed with a sad face.
So why did Wang Qian give such a bad refusal opinion?
Zong Ji didn't know him at all, did he?
Zhou Jiajia immediately called Zong Ji and told him the whole story, now is not the time to hide it from him, the most important thing is to find out the reason.
"Wang Qian?" Zong Ji was as dazed as Zhou Jiajia imagined.
Zhou Jiajia suddenly thought of the encounter at the Xiangshi Cinema in the third year of junior high school: "Wang Qian is Jiang Shenxing's manager."
"Then I may know why." Zong Ji frowned, "I know Jiang Shenxing. We participated in the audition for "Night Color" together. Director Fang chose me but didn't choose him."
"Just because of this?" Zhou Jiajia was stunned, "Why is he so narrow-minded?"
Zong Ji was also a little bit at a loss, he never speculated on others with the greatest malice, and he had seen less sinister people than Zhou Jiajia, so he didn't know how to solve the current situation.No wonder he didn't receive a call from his agency recently.
Zhou Jiajia bit her lip, the matter was a bit difficult.
It would be a waste of time to spread rumors and refute them. More importantly, even if they knew that Wang Qian was deliberately slandering Zongji, they would have nothing to do with him.
Feng Xia is the manager of the artist business department and a gold medal broker.No matter which identity it is, it is not something Zong Ji can compete with now.
The more Zhou Jiajia thought about it, the more annoyed he became, but Zong Ji calmed down instead.
"Sister Jiajia, don't be angry. You don't have to be angry for them. I don't think everyone will believe their lies. Isn't it you and Director Xu who speak well for me?"
"Both Director Xu and Director Fang said that if there is a suitable audition opportunity, they will notify me. Even if I don't sign with the agency, I can still receive the role. It doesn't matter."
Zong Ji thinks very openly, because he is easy to be satisfied, and those who are contented are always happy.
"Brother, I'm sorry." Zhou Jiajia felt very guilty.
"No, no, this is none of your business, Sister Jiajia." Facing Zhou Jiajia's apology, Zong Ji hurriedly waved his hands, "You are doing it for my own good, so I should say thank you."
Zong Ji didn't need Zhou Jiajia to say sorry, and Zhou Jiajia couldn't afford this thank you either.
There was a silence on the receiver, and finally Zhou Jiajia hung up the phone first, and she had to inform Director Xu about the situation.
Director Xu was also very angry, and hurriedly called Zong Ji to reassure him: "I'm going to prepare a new movie soon, and I will definitely come back to you when I have a suitable script."
Director Fang didn't say anything to Zong Ji, but Director Xu said that according to Director Fang's temperament, Jiang Shenxing must be on his blacklist, and it is impossible for him to be in his own play for the rest of his life.
Thinking about Jiang Shenxing participating in Director Fang's audition in the future, he was rejected once every time he participated, and he was rejected once every time he participated. He might not know why, and Director Xu was immediately happy.
Zong Ji was amused by the scene he described, although Jiang Shenxing brought him a little trouble, but if time goes back, he will still choose to spare no effort to participate in the audition instead of temporarily avoiding his edge.
The mirror in front of him reflected Zong Ji's sweat-stained face and resolute eyes.
The temperature in the room was not high, Zong Ji put his phone on the sofa and continued his unfinished exercise.
The sweat builds up and soaks into the fabric of the cotton T-shirt.
Qi Chongyan grabbed the hem of his clothes and wiped the sweat off his face: "Cut!"
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the wind and sand from the northwest dazzled the eyes of the actors, and the camera lens was hazy.
The filming location of "Broken Finger" was chosen by Qi Chongyan himself. He used to run all over the world with a video camera during various vacations at university. After four years, the content he shot filled several hard drives with more than 500 gigabytes.
The inspiration for "Broken Finger" comes from the Great Northwest Desert that Qi Chongyan once visited.
Led by the locals, the film crew went deep into the desert hinterland, and the mosquito repellent spray sent by Zong Ji was useless because there were basically no mosquitoes in the desert.
However, essential oils are very useful. When people are in the sun, putting a drop or two on their temples will wake them up a lot. The crew of "Broken Finger" has wholesaled two boxes, which is enough to use at any time.
Qi Chongyan unscrewed the essential oil, and the refreshing but not irritating smell instantly filled the nostrils, as if even the wind and sand passing by had a hint of coolness.
Xiao Zhao thought that Qi Chongyan was using the one that the crew bought together, but after a closer look, he found that the packaging was different, and the smell was also slightly different. He couldn't help wondering: "Director Qi, did you bring the essential oil?"
"A gift from a friend." Qi Chongyan's tone was full of showing off.
Coupled with his proud expression, Xiao Zhao almost thought that what he heard was "gifted by his girlfriend".
The wind and sand stopped, the lens became clear again, and the shooting continued.
The desert in the Northwest is full of wind and sand. Standing for a while makes people feel unbearable. Every day they eat, their mouths creak. In just a few days, the average weight of the crew has dropped by almost two catties.
It's really exhausting.
After following Qi Chongyan for so long, Xiao Zhao still feels uncomfortable. Their director Qi must be some alien creature, otherwise how can someone be so adaptable?
I've never seen him acclimatize to the environment, let alone get sick, and that feigning sickness doesn't count.
Jiang Yinghou applies a moisturizing and repairing mask to her face three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, which is more regular than eating. After a few days, the originally delicate skin is still a lot rougher to the naked eye.
Look at their director Qi again, well, rough is a bit rough, but it can be changed back after washing.
Xiao Zhao touched his face and sighed.
When there is no wind and sand, the desert is still beautiful, with endless undulating sand hills, especially in the evening, when the fiery sunset falls far into the sky.
The desert is solitary and straight, and the long river falls into the sun.
Almost everyone was overwhelmed by the magnificent scene in front of them.
So beautiful, no matter how many adjectives lose their power at this time, only a simple beautiful word remains.
Based on this shot, Xiao Zhao felt that "Broken Finger" was qualified for the Best Visual Effects Award.
The desert doesn't seem to be scary any more.
There is yellow sand everywhere, there is no variegated color under the sky, and the feeling of stepping on it with bare feet is as delicate as satin.Pull out the feet, the gravel rolls, filling the footprints left behind, without a trace.
Therefore, in the desert, it is the easiest to get lost, and no one dares to wander around.
Fengyoujing emptied a bottle, and seeing that there was less and less left, Qi Chongyan felt a little bit reluctant.He put away the remaining few bottles and used the ones distributed by the production crew. I don't know if it was a psychological reason, but he always felt that the one given by Zong Ji was not as easy to use.
The temperature at night in the desert has dropped to sub-zero, and the night above is covered with stars, so low that it seems that you can reach it with your hands.
Qi Chongyan exhaled a breath of white steam, staring at the monitor intently: "No. [-] machine cuts to the distant view."
Wearing a red gauze, Yuyao runs barefoot in the desert, revealing her white skin while she moves. The yellow sand all over the sky and the falling starry sky are her back view.
She was so cold that she almost lost consciousness, and running didn't bring her any heat, but exacerbated her loss of energy.
"Are you working so hard making movies?"
The guide had never seen filming before, so he was wrapped in a heavy cotton coat and sat next to Xiao Zhao to watch.
"It's not all of them." Xiao Zhao really couldn't say anything against his will, "Our director Qi's requirements are a little higher than others by [-] million points."
Qi Chongyan shot only one scene of running in the yellow sand ten times, and his serious eyes showed that he was still not satisfied with the final result.
But Yuyao couldn't run anymore, she frowned, and collapsed on the yellow sand with a pale face.
A white light flashed in front of her eyes, her vision was in a trance, was she going to die?
"Meteor shower!"
It turned out that it was not an illusion, the stars in the sky really fell down.
The assistant floated Yuyao up and fed her a few sips of hot water.
"Can you still run?" Qi Chongyan walked to her side.
There are more and more falling stars, and Yuyao and Qi Chongyan's thoughts have reached unity at this moment, it would be a pity if they were not photographed.
She pushed away the down jacket that the assistant was about to put on her, and clenched her fists: "Yes!"
All irrelevant personnel left the stage, on the endless yellow sand, under the meteor rain, the woman in red was floating like a phantom.
Those stars seem to have become her followers.
No matter how exquisite the special effects are, they are not as exquisite as one-tenth of this.
Qi Chongyan's scenes were not good, and Qi Chongyan's scenes were not easy to shoot.
However, these are not important to Yuyao. The important thing is that Qi Chongyan's play can win awards and bring her more fame, which is enough.
Before the meteor shower disappeared, Yuyao finally passed the scene that made her almost collapse.
The warm down jacket wrapped her icy body, and the doctors accompanying the group stepped forward to give her a basic examination of various indicators.Fortunately, there was no major problem other than loss of strength, and the physical training that Qi Chongyan asked her to do was not in vain.
After filming, everyone returned to the tent to rest.The desert is very windy and sandy. In order to avoid the dangerous situation of waking up in the morning and finding that the tents were buried or blown to other places, the crew strictly followed the guidance of professionals to tie all the tents in the leeward place.
The sunset and night in the desert are beautiful, and the sunrise is also not inferior to the former two.
Warm red light slowly sprinkled on the sand dunes from the east, and the sunrise at this moment can still be seen directly. Qi Chongyan looked deeper into the desert and asked the guide: "I want to go a little further in."
"No!" The guide rejected Qi Chongyan without thinking, "It's too dangerous to go inside, so I can't go."
Will Qi Chongyan change his mind because of the guide's refusal? Of course not.
He pointed behind the sand dunes: "About [-] meters further in this direction, there is a dead Populus euphratica forest. I'm going to take pictures there."
In fact, the location guide on the inside had been there before, and he came out successfully, but seeing such a large group of people on the set, he didn't dare to take the risk.
"How do you know there is Populus euphratica forest inside?" The guide didn't expect Qi Chongyan to be so familiar with this place, but he still shook his head, "You can't go, it's very dangerous."
"Xiao Zhao." Qi Chongyan didn't talk nonsense with him, "You talk to him and add money."
Xiao Zhao also wanted to persuade Qi Chongyan not to go, but he didn't dare, and it was useless to persuade him, so he went to the guide.
"I can only bring up to three people."
The guide who got double the price compromised, not because he was not firm, but because the other party gave too much.
"enough."
Qi Chongyan started pointing at people, Xiao Zhao stood beside him without thinking, and then heard him shout: "Song He, Guangde."
Song He is the male protagonist of "Broken Finger", and it is also the third time to cooperate with Qi Chongyan. When Qi Chongyan was talking to the guide, he happened to be beside him, and he nodded to express his understanding.
"Director Qi, are you looking for me?"
Guangde is the cameraman in the crew. Although he is not the most experienced one, he is close to 1.9 meters tall, strong and strong, and his muscles that cannot be blocked by clothes make him look particularly reliable.
Even the guide didn't look so nervous when he saw him.
"Director Qi, what about me?" Xiao Zhao couldn't hold back anymore. There were three places in total, and only two of them went. It was impossible for Director Qi not to go, so what should he do?
"You stay in the crew." Qi Chongyan glanced at him, "Or you can ask the guide if you can bring ten people."
So he can't even finish fourth and can only rank tenth?Desperation appeared on Xiao Zhao's face.
Going to Populus euphratica Forest was not Qi Chongyan's temporary idea, but he had been waiting for the most suitable weather. The biggest reason why the guide agreed to take them in was because he judged that there would be no strong wind and sand today, and it was within a safe range.
Otherwise, Qi Chongyan would not agree no matter how much money he gave, life is more important than anything else.
Song He has studied the script of "Broken Finger" repeatedly, so he naturally knows which scene Hu Yanglin is referring to. He thought he would shoot post-production special effects synthesis on the green screen, but Qi Chongyan did it for real.
What a madman, and a madman himself.
After finishing the make-up, Song He took the prop sword and got into the jeep together with Guangde and Qi Chongyan who were carrying the camera.
Yes, Qi Chongyan also carried a video camera. He did not bring a monitor, and he will complete the filming task with Guangde later.
The jeep kicked up a burst of yellow sand and drove further into the desert. Xiao Zhao sighed as he watched the rear of the car gradually disappear behind the sand dunes.
"Hey."
Song He's assistant also sighed, and the two looked at each other, seeing from their respective faces the misery of the same fallen people in the world.
"Has Director Qi bought insurance?"
The assistant and Xiao Zhao squatted together, the director and the leading actor left, and the guide also ran away with the most senior one, so they could only rest where they were.
"I bought it." Xiao Zhao didn't feel any comfort, but what's the use of buying so many insurances, and it couldn't stop them from going crazy, "Did Song Yingdi buy it?"
"I bought it." The assistant sighed again, "I just hope that those insurances will never be used."
Who is not.If something goes wrong, those insurances can't turn back the clock.
Bah, bah, bah, nothing will happen, nothing will happen.Xiao Zhao shook off those bad thoughts in his head, and prayed in his heart for Qi Chongyan and the others to come back quickly.
There is no road in the desert, and where the jeep goes depends on the compass in hand and years of experience.
Although Qi Chongyan came here once, it was a long time ago after all, knowing that there is Populus euphratica forest in front of him and being able to find it are two different things, so the guide has the final say on which way to go, and he never interjected a word.
Driving in the desert can't be distracted, the guide keeps his eyes on the road ahead, if he makes a wrong turn, he may have to wait for the search and rescue team, or even never come out again.
The only voices in the car were Qi Chongyan and Song He's voices. They were discussing how to shoot later. Guangde silently shrank back in his seat, trying to reduce his sense of presence.
A dead branch appeared behind the dune, and the guide accelerated the car: "The Populus euphratica forest has arrived."
Seeing Populus euphratica, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The dead branches of Populus euphratica forest that have been through the wind and sand are like the tendons in the hands of an old man, full of the breath of time.
The four got out of the car and stood on the ground looking up at the tall Populus euphratica forest.
"They must be very beautiful when they are still alive." Song He sighed.
"They will come back to life." Qi Chongyan picked up a yellowed leaf from under his feet, held it under the sunlight, and it revealed a faint golden color.
It was the wind that sent it from other places to this Populus euphratica forest, and perhaps soon, new seeds will take root here.Populus euphratica or not, this land will continue to live in other ways.
"I will soon be able to accumulate enough energy to plant a Populus euphratica." Guangde shared his achievement with a smile, but unfortunately there was no signal in the desert, and he hadn't been able to steal energy for many days.
They didn't have much time to gossip, Qi Chongyan put the leaves on the nearest branch, there was no wind at the moment, the leaves stood firmly on the branches, as if the Populus euphratica had really come to life.
Song He's acting skills are top-notch among domestic actors of the same age, otherwise Qi Chongyan would not have collaborated with him many times.After Qi Chongyan chose a location and set up the camera, he bowed deeply to the poplar tree in front of him: "Excuse me."
Then he moved nimbly and climbed up the tree trunk. Without Wia, everything depends on himself.
Qi Chongyan handed him the sword from below: "Be careful."
Now these people can really make a fuss when filming a scene. The guide shook his head and sat back in the driver's seat of the jeep. It was very hot outside.
When the four of them set off, the sun had just risen. When they returned, the sky was full of sunset, and the jeep seemed to be driving out of a burning cloud.
"They're back!" Xiao Zhao and Assistant Song He squatted at the door of the tent and almost became lookout stones. When they saw the front of the jeep, they immediately jumped up from the ground.
God bless, they don't have to worry about their own affairs.
The three of them took pictures from morning to afternoon, skipping lunch directly, and only ate something in the jeep to replenish energy when they came back.The face looked a little tired, but from the energetic eyes, it could be seen that they succeeded in capturing what Qi Chongyan wanted.
"Broken Finger" stayed in the hinterland of the desert for more than half a month. The most beautiful scenes have been recorded in the camera, and the rest of the shots can be completed on the edge of the desert. The trance of seeing the light of day again.
The people who entered Mingsha City were so embarrassed that they couldn't see any stars. They were ashamed, like refugees fleeing famine.
After Jiang Yinghou went to the city, she went straight to the beauty salon. She urgently needed modern high-tech beauty methods to save her face, referred to as medical beauty.
Qi Chongyan went back to the hotel to take a shower. The water undulated along his body and turned light yellow when it flowed to the ground.
It took two shower gels to completely wash off the sand and dust on his body, and Qi Chongyan breathed a sigh of relief at the renewed comfort.
He is not the alien that Xiao Zhao imagined, he is also a mortal, and the life in the hinterland of the desert for more than half a month has made him quite miserable.
The author has something to say: Director Qi is really crazy when he is filming, don't kill him.
Chun'er [cute smile]: Thank you for your concern for me, I will study in the future~ I wish you all a healthy Dragon Boat Festival~
[White rice dumplings yyds! ! ! 】
Planting Populus euphratica requires too much energy, I can’t save enough every day, wow QAQ
Update when I forgot to set it! ! ! ! !
Sister Yun, who was always very talkative, asked her not to mention this matter very seriously this time.
"Why? Sister Yun, Zong Ji is very good? You believe me? The company will definitely not lose money by signing him!" Zhou Jiajia thought that he hadn't made it clear, "Zong Ji's acting skills are very good, you should know that after watching "Blooming" ,? And he is very obedient and very worry-free."
Sister Yun frowned. What Zhou Jiajia said about Zong Ji was not the same as what she heard about two days ago.
"Is he really as good as you say?" Could there be some misunderstanding?
"Really!" Zhou Jiajia emphasized, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Director Qi, or Director Fang, or other actors who have worked with him. They will all give the same answer as me."
Sister Yun straightened her expression: "If Zong Ji is really like what you said, then I guess he probably offended someone."
"What?" Zhou Jiajia stood up in surprise. How could Zong Ji offend someone?With such a good character, where can he offend others?

"Why did he write that?"
Sister Yun shook her head. Of course she didn't know, and it was even more impossible for her to ask questions for Zong Ji.
"Please trouble Sister Yun." Zhou Jiajia understood Sister Yun's embarrassment, and sighed with a sad face.
So why did Wang Qian give such a bad refusal opinion?
Zong Ji didn't know him at all, did he?
Zhou Jiajia immediately called Zong Ji and told him the whole story, now is not the time to hide it from him, the most important thing is to find out the reason.

The warm down jacket wrapped her icy body, and the doctors accompanying the group stepped forward to give her a basic examination of various indicators.Fortunately, there was no major problem other than loss of strength, and the physical training that Qi Chongyan asked her to do was not in vain.
After filming, everyone returned to the tent to rest.The desert is very windy and sandy. In order to avoid the dangerous situation of waking up in the morning and finding that the tents were buried or blown to other places, the crew strictly followed the guidance of professionals to tie all the tents in the leeward place.
The sunset and night in the desert are beautiful, and the sunrise is also not inferior to the former two.
Warm red light slowly sprinkled on the sand dunes from the east, and the sunrise at this moment can still be seen directly. Qi Chongyan looked deeper into the desert and asked the guide: "I want to go a little further in."
"No!" The guide rejected Qi Chongyan without thinking, "It's too dangerous to go inside, so I can't go."
Will Qi Chongyan change his mind because of the guide's refusal? Of course not.
He pointed behind the sand dunes: "About [-] meters further in this direction, there is a dead Populus euphratica forest. I'm going to take pictures there."
In fact, the location guide on the inside had been there before, and he came out successfully, but seeing such a large group of people on the set, he didn't dare to take the risk.
"How do you know there is Populus euphratica forest inside?" The guide didn't expect Qi Chongyan to be so familiar with this place, but he still shook his head, "You can't go, it's very dangerous."
"Xiao Zhao." Qi Chongyan didn't talk nonsense with him, "You talk to him and add money."
Xiao Zhao also wanted to persuade Qi Chongyan not to go, but he didn't dare, and it was useless to persuade him, so he went to the guide.
"I can only bring up to three people."
The guide who got double the price compromised, not because he was not firm, but because the other party gave too much.
"enough."
Qi Chongyan started pointing at people, Xiao Zhao stood beside him without thinking, and then heard him shout: "Song He, Guangde."
Song He is the male protagonist of "Broken Finger", and it is also the third time to cooperate with Qi Chongyan. When Qi Chongyan was talking to the guide, he happened to be beside him, and he nodded to express his understanding.
"Director Qi, are you looking for me?"
Guangde is the cameraman in the crew. Although he is not the most experienced one, he is close to 1.9 meters tall, strong and strong, and his muscles that cannot be blocked by clothes make him look particularly reliable.
Even the guide didn't look so nervous when he saw him.
"Director Qi, what about me?" Xiao Zhao couldn't hold back anymore. There were three places in total, and only two of them went. It was impossible for Director Qi not to go, so what should he do?
"You stay in the crew." Qi Chongyan glanced at him, "Or you can ask the guide if you can bring ten people."
So he can't even finish fourth and can only rank tenth?Desperation appeared on Xiao Zhao's face.
Going to Populus euphratica Forest was not Qi Chongyan's temporary idea, but he had been waiting for the most suitable weather. The biggest reason why the guide agreed to take them in was because he judged that there would be no strong wind and sand today, and it was within a safe range.
Otherwise, Qi Chongyan would not agree no matter how much money he gave, life is more important than anything else.
Song He has studied the script of "Broken Finger" repeatedly, so he naturally knows which scene Hu Yanglin is referring to. He thought he would shoot post-production special effects synthesis on the green screen, but Qi Chongyan did it for real.
What a madman, and a madman himself.
After finishing the make-up, Song He took the prop sword and got into the jeep together with Guangde and Qi Chongyan who were carrying the camera.
Yes, Qi Chongyan also carried a video camera. He did not bring a monitor, and he will complete the filming task with Guangde later.
The jeep kicked up a burst of yellow sand and drove further into the desert. Xiao Zhao sighed as he watched the rear of the car gradually disappear behind the sand dunes.
"Hey."
Song He's assistant also sighed, and the two looked at each other, seeing from their respective faces the misery of the same fallen people in the world.
"Has Director Qi bought insurance?"
The assistant and Xiao Zhao squatted together, the director and the leading actor left, and the guide also ran away with the most senior one, so they could only rest where they were.
"I bought it." Xiao Zhao didn't feel any comfort, but what's the use of buying so many insurances, and it couldn't stop them from going crazy, "Did Song Yingdi buy it?"
"I bought it." The assistant sighed again, "I just hope that those insurances will never be used."
Who is not.If something goes wrong, those insurances can't turn back the clock.
Bah, bah, bah, nothing will happen, nothing will happen.Xiao Zhao shook off those bad thoughts in his head, and prayed in his heart for Qi Chongyan and the others to come back quickly.
There is no road in the desert, and where the jeep goes depends on the compass in hand and years of experience.
Although Qi Chongyan came here once, it was a long time ago after all, knowing that there is Populus euphratica forest in front of him and being able to find it are two different things, so the guide has the final say on which way to go, and he never interjected a word.
Driving in the desert can't be distracted, the guide keeps his eyes on the road ahead, if he makes a wrong turn, he may have to wait for the search and rescue team, or even never come out again.
The only voices in the car were Qi Chongyan and Song He's voices. They were discussing how to shoot later. Guangde silently shrank back in his seat, trying to reduce his sense of presence.
A dead branch appeared behind the dune, and the guide accelerated the car: "The Populus euphratica forest has arrived."
Seeing Populus euphratica, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The dead branches of Populus euphratica forest that have been through the wind and sand are like the tendons in the hands of an old man, full of the breath of time.
The four got out of the car and stood on the ground looking up at the tall Populus euphratica forest.
"They must be very beautiful when they are still alive." Song He sighed.
"They will come back to life." Qi Chongyan picked up a yellowed leaf from under his feet, held it under the sunlight, and it revealed a faint golden color.
It was the wind that sent it from other places to this Populus euphratica forest, and perhaps soon, new seeds will take root here.Populus euphratica or not, this land will continue to live in other ways.
"I will soon be able to accumulate enough energy to plant a Populus euphratica." Guangde shared his achievement with a smile, but unfortunately there was no signal in the desert, and he hadn't been able to steal energy for many days.
They didn't have much time to gossip, Qi Chongyan put the leaves on the nearest branch, there was no wind at the moment, the leaves stood firmly on the branches, as if the Populus euphratica had really come to life.
Song He's acting skills are top-notch among domestic actors of the same age, otherwise Qi Chongyan would not have collaborated with him many times.After Qi Chongyan chose a location and set up the camera, he bowed deeply to the poplar tree in front of him: "Excuse me."
Then he moved nimbly and climbed up the tree trunk. Without Wia, everything depends on himself.
Qi Chongyan handed him the sword from below: "Be careful."
Now these people can really make a fuss when filming a scene. The guide shook his head and sat back in the driver's seat of the jeep. It was very hot outside.
When the four of them set off, the sun had just risen. When they returned, the sky was full of sunset, and the jeep seemed to be driving out of a burning cloud.
"They're back!" Xiao Zhao and Assistant Song He squatted at the door of the tent and almost became lookout stones. When they saw the front of the jeep, they immediately jumped up from the ground.
God bless, they don't have to worry about their own affairs.
The three of them took pictures from morning to afternoon, skipping lunch directly, and only ate something in the jeep to replenish energy when they came back.The face looked a little tired, but from the energetic eyes, it could be seen that they succeeded in capturing what Qi Chongyan wanted.
"Broken Finger" stayed in the hinterland of the desert for more than half a month. The most beautiful scenes have been recorded in the camera, and the rest of the shots can be completed on the edge of the desert. The trance of seeing the light of day again.
The people who entered Mingsha City were so embarrassed that they couldn't see any stars. They were ashamed, like refugees fleeing famine.
After Jiang Yinghou went to the city, she went straight to the beauty salon. She urgently needed modern high-tech beauty methods to save her face, referred to as medical beauty.
Qi Chongyan went back to the hotel to take a shower. The water undulated along his body and turned light yellow when it flowed to the ground.
It took two shower gels to completely wash off the sand and dust on his body, and Qi Chongyan breathed a sigh of relief at the renewed comfort.
He is not the alien that Xiao Zhao imagined, he is also a mortal, and the life in the hinterland of the desert for more than half a month has made him quite miserable.
The author has something to say: Director Qi is really crazy when he is filming, don't kill him.
Chun'er [cute smile]: Thank you for your concern for me, I will study in the future~ I wish you all a healthy Dragon Boat Festival~
