Chapter 326: The Rented Room Borrowed by The Film Crew
The scene of Jia Siyuan persuading others was being played out all over the country. After Mo Fei’s new album went on sale, many fans who were not affected by public opinion flocked into audio-visual stores to buy the album. After listening to it, they were once again moved by the quality and sincerity of Mo Fei’s album and couldn’t help but recommend it to those around them.
“It’s worth spending 18 yuan to buy it! No, I think even if it were 80 yuan, I would still be willing to buy this album!” A fan said to someone else without exaggeration.
The buying frenzy started in the morning and gradually spread. By the afternoon, some audio-visual stores couldn’t keep up and requested restocking from the distributors. The popularity of Mo Fei’s new album had already ignited before Mo Fei even appeared on the chart show!
Of course, Mo Fei was currently participating in the program rehearsal at a TV station in Beijing. She would only sing on the live broadcast of the chart show in the evening. The busy Mo Fei didn’t even know that her album was already sold out.
But even if she knew, Mo Fei could now face it calmly. The results might be a basis for others to prove what she said, but Mo Fei herself didn’t need to prove herself. Singing her own songs, singing for her own dreams, and singing for her fans who liked her were enough!
……
On New Year’s Day, the whole country was on holiday, but TV stations didn’t take a break, nor did Du Yuanlei’s crew. Yesterday’s startup and first day of filming went smoothly. They were in high spirits and started filming non-stop on the second day.
Yang Yi had promised to come and visit, and in the afternoon, he arrived as planned with a group of people. Xixi didn’t have to go to kindergarten today. She put on her new clothes and shoes for the New Year and couldn’t wait to go with her father. Yang Huan also wanted to join in the fun, and she also brought Ding Xiang who had prepared cakes and drinks for everyone.
The filming location of this micro-movie was set in Jiangcheng Media. There was no need to deliberately setup a film studio outside because many scenes in the script, such as the consultation room in the hospital and the stage where A’Guang performed later, could be found at corresponding filming location within the school.
Even if they needed to borrow the school’s auditorium and piano, Jiangcheng Media was more than willing to provide students with the opportunity to shoot their own projects during their free time.
However, at the moment, they were still filming the early part of the story, so they would be shooting scenes in A’Guang’s crowded little room that he rented and Xu Shishi’s big house that she rented later.
How to solve it? .
Yang Yi heard that Guo Ziyi had rented a two-bedroom, one living room apartment in the teacher’s housing complex within the school, which was just enough for the crew to use. The room was arranged to be a bit crowded, and they borrowed a vertical piano from a music teacher next door to make it look like A’Guang’s cramped living space. The living room was arranged according to the illustrations in the script, and with a change in the shooting angles, they could also depict the larger apartment that Xu Shishi later rented.
By the way, for the scene of Xu Shishi on the pickup truck during the move, Du Yuanlei had it all figured out. She would borrow Yang Yi’s Tyrant Wolf and just disguise its appearance…
Although Yang Yi was willing to provide them with sufficient funds, Du Yuanlei was still very frugal and didn’t want to spend money indiscriminately.
When Yang Yi and his party arrived at that apartment, everyone stopped filming. Wang Chao also carefully put down his camera and ran over happily to eat cake and drink coffee.
“Wow, so many people! And there’s so much stuff!” As soon as Xixi came in, she started looking around with curiosity. The curious little girl touched here and there, thinking that making a movie was so magical.
“Xixi, you can’t be impolite!” Yang Yi rubbed the little girl’s head and said with a smile, reminding her not to accidentally damage other people’s valuable equipment.
“It’s okay. I’ll put away my camera. Feel free to touch anything else. It won’t break!” Wang Chao ran back with his mouth full of food and placed his camera on a nearby table.
“Everyone has worked hard. Let’s eat something first. Later, just pretend that Xixi and I don’t exist. You can continue filming according to your plan, and we’ll just watch quietly from the side.” Yang Yi clapped his hands with a smile, saying to them.
“Big Brother Yang, as long as you bring so many delicious foods every time you come, we definitely welcome you to come every day!” Qin Wen said with a smile as she drank her coffee.
“Then you have to please Ding Xiang. These cakes and coffee were prepared by her for you guys.” Yang Yi chuckled and said, “You won’t get such good benefits when I come alone.”
Ding Xiang, who was whispering with Yang Huan and Guo Ziyi on the side, heard this and blushed as she waved her hands: “No, these materials were all sponsored by Big Brother Yang.”
“Both of them should be pleased!” A group of people shouted, wanting to curry favor with both of them.
Yang Yi walked up to Guo Ziyi and asked him curiously: “Why did you rent this room? Don’t you usually live in the dormitory?”
Yang Yi didn’t notice that when he asked this question, the guilty Yang Huan behind him had already turned around and walked away as if nothing had happened, leaving Guo Ziyi with an awkward face facing Yang Yi.
Guo Ziyi had a somewhat pale expression. All he could think of was the kick that Yang Yi had used to kick the wild boar into the air. Speaking of which, that wild boar was much thinner than him, but if he were to take such a kick, he would be half-crippled, wouldn’t he?
“Why are you trembling? I’m not your father. Do I still control you when you rent a room outside?” Yang Yi chuckled and patted his shoulder, saying, “I’m just asking out of concern.”
“I didn’t rent it for any particular reason. I just thought it might be useful for filming movies before.” Guo Ziyi gave a reason full of loopholes.
“Ah? You could even think of that?” Yang Yi asked in surprise.
“Cough cough, I mean, sometimes, when filming movies goes on until it’s too late, and I can’t get back to the dormitory building because it’s closed, having a place might be useful.” Fortunately, Guo Ziyi was quick-witted and rounded up the lie.
“Oh…” Yang Yi was somewhat speechless and said with a smile, “You have too much money to burn!”
Fortunately, Du Yuanlei called out to continue filming, indirectly rescuing Guo Ziyi who was sweating profusely in the cold winter.
Yang Yi held his daughter and sat on a chair in the living room, while Ding Xiang and Yang Huan gathered nearby, curiously watching the crew filming in the small room.
What was being filmed now was the scene where Xu Shishi inspired A’Guang.
Qin Wen lay on the sofa, playfully crossing her legs, and moving her fingers in the air one by one, with a natural expression on her face.
But Guo Ziyi was still somewhat influenced by Yang Yi’s “interrogation” just now. He played the piano, but his fingers were somewhat uncooperative.
“Cut! Little Guo, pay attention. Do you need to tremble like this in front of your girlfriend?” Du Yuanlei was a little puzzled and called a halt to Wang Chao. She walked up to Guo Ziyi to discuss the scene with him.
“Sister Du is so fierce!” Xixi looked at Du Yuanlei’s stern face, feeling a little scared, and muttered in her father’s arms.
The nearby Wang Chao, who was resting the camera on the table, heard this and smiled at the little girl, saying, “Actually, it’s not like that. She’s usually a very good person. It’s just that she gets a little emotional when she’s filming.”
Xixi looked at him and nodded in confusion, “Okay then!”
Guo Ziyi was quite dedicated. After a while, he found the right mood for the scene and forgot everything outside the script, truly integrating himself into the character of A’Guang.
Du Yuanlei meticulously filmed two more takes before nodding in satisfaction, “Great! Let’s move on to the next scene. Qin Wen, you need to get up…”
Watching others film was still very interesting. Yang Yi and Xixi gradually became fascinated by it.
