"How is it, are you still adapting?" He Xin asked with concern.

Diao Yinan has also been here a few days ago, and He Xin is busy communicating with a few donkeys every day, which is to discuss various details with Diao Yinan.

No way, animals have always been the most difficult to photograph, full of too many uncertainties. Many scenes seem to be interacting with animals and animals, but in fact, when they are actually filmed, they shoot the human part first, and then the animal part, or shoot the animal part first, and then design the human performance according to the animal's reaction.

In short, it is particularly troublesome, and He Xin needs to perform in front of the air a lot of time.

Therefore, during this period of time, except for the last time when this girl had a conflict with the young artist of the scenery group, He Xin asked about it, and he didn't care about caring about others.

The weather here is very pleasant and the air is good. In the morning, I saw a little squirrel in the tree. Tong Yali smiled.

"Hey, I see that you go to the village every day, what do you talk about with the villagers?" He Xin asked again.

Speaking of experiencing life, he is a little embarrassed, in addition to dealing with donkeys every day, he goes to the village relatively little, unlike Tong Liya, who seems to be familiar with many residents in the village, and in order to exercise his dialect level, he often gets together with the villagers to talk and laugh.

"I didn't talk about anything, just about their lives, their work, and some other messy things, anyway, they talked about everything. They also love to hear me talk about my hometown. ”

Think about it, people are curious, some old people here may not have been out of the mountains in their lives, and naturally things outside are very fresh, especially in places like Xinjiang Province with a mysterious color.

Tong Yali then said: "But today I made an appointment with the second sister-in-law of the Guo family to go up the mountain to pick dogwoods. ”

He Xin couldn't help laughing and said, "The little girl who grew up in this city knows what is called dogwood?"

"What's so hard to recognize here, it's all red-colored fruits that are easy to recognize, and the second sister-in-law of the Guo family taught me to recognize it. Tong Yali raised her head and said coquettishly.

He Xin, the second sister-in-law of the Guo family in her mouth, also knew that one of the few middle-aged women left in the village was said to be the women's director of the village, with big shoulders and a round waist, very similar to the captain of the big lotus depicted in it.

I remember that when he and the crew accompanied the county leaders here, the second sister-in-law of the Guo family also participated in the reception work as one of the village cadres.

Although "The Tale of Two Donkeys" is only a low-budget movie, the arrival of the big star He Xin has made the local government pay great attention to it. Of course, he can't be as exaggerated as Director Chen did when he filmed "Wuji", and every time he goes, the big leaders of the province come forward to receive him.

However, the signboard of He Xin's double gold actor still made the local county government overjoyed, and "The Story of Two Donkeys" was able to be filmed in Zhouzhi, which is undoubtedly a good opportunity to show the development of Zhouzhi's cultural tourism in an obscure western county.

Although the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, as long as the cadres explain the truth thoroughly, the simple people still welcome the arrival of the crew. So whether the crew is setting up scenes in the village or the actors are experiencing life, the villagers are very welcome, and sometimes they are willing to help or something.

The hotel in this Taibai Villa in the town is actually a farmhouse, usually the business is not good, this time not only has the big star "Brother Qiang" to come, (most of the people are very simple, and the stars they identify are often from their impressive roles) and it is said that after half a month, there will be a large group of people to come, but also stationed here for more than a month, the boss seems to be extraordinarily attentive, every day to eat and drink good hospitality, after all, there is more than one farmhouse in the town.

He Xin likes the dumpling noodles made by the proprietress here very much, which looks like a piece of wonton skin, but the taste is strong and smooth, and it is accompanied by fried pork with fat and thin diced pork, and it is full of happiness to eat a big bowl.

After breakfast, I set off with the scenery group to the old county town. Although Houjingzi Town is only 18 kilometers away from the old county town and village, most of them are winding and very steep winding mountain roads, and they are generally not familiar with the road conditions, which is really a bit dangerous. He Xin drove the company's business van that had traveled long distances from the capital to here, followed by the van in front of him that was driven by a local driver, and it took him forty minutes to reach his destination.

At this time, it is the season when the dogwood is ripe, and in the morning, in the village except for the red dogwood that is basking at the door of every house, there is basically no human figure in the village, and the old and young go to the mountain to pick the dogwood.

The wild dogwood here is a good medicinal material, which can increase the income of the villagers here a lot every year. When the car arrived, the second sister-in-law of the Guo family was already waiting at the city gate.

"Second sister-in-law, heap up your gas, it's too late to be hungry!" Tong Yali hurriedly jumped out of the car and greeted her second sister-in-law in the broken local dialect she had just learned.

"Mo Si!Mo Si!" loves e-books

The second sister-in-law waved her hand again and again, and then hurriedly smiled at He Xin, who had just gotten out of the car, and said, "Teacher He, the donkey has been fed when it is hungry." ”

The crew bought five black donkeys and usually kept them in the village livestock shed. The authentic Guanzhong black donkey, which is fat and strong, is said to have been personally selected by director Diao Yinan, and like himself, they are all produced by Guanzhong.

Actors need to experience life, and donkeys also need to adapt to the environment. So He Xin came over every day to serve these donkey masters, and occasionally helped the villagers pull a cart and pull a grinder or something.

"Second sister-in-law, didn't I tell you, I will come over to feed the donkey myself in the future, so don't work hard. ”

As an educated youth, He Xin still speaks Mandarin in the play, and he doesn't need to learn the local dialect. And when these five donkeys were bought back at that time, they said that when the filming was over, the donkeys would be donated to the village, which was a piece of the crew's heart. So the villagers usually pay attention to these five donkeys.

"Okay, good, Teacher He, I'm hungry. The second sister-in-law replied with a smile.

As she spoke, the second sister-in-law looked at the staff of the scenery group who were unloading the goods in front of her, took a step closer, deliberately lowered her voice and said slightly: "Teacher He, you are hungry to kill a chicken at noon, you and Xiao Tong will come to the hungry house for lunch together." ”

"How embarrassing is this, second sister-in-law, don't bother, we have our own lunch here. He Xin hurriedly waved his hand.

The scenery team works here, and every day lunch is delivered from the town's farmhouse. In addition, most of the living conditions of the households in the mountains are relatively difficult, although the second sister-in-law is a village cadre, but the man works in other places all the year round, and the daughter attends high school in Zhouzhi County, a hundred kilometers away, she stays in the village to serve the elderly, except for a little village cadre allowance, that is, by farming and picking dogwoods to subsidize the family.

"Mo Si! Mo Si! Teacher He, you are polite, the hungry girl can be happy with you, I heard that you are filming in the village, and you will bring your classmates to see it on National Day. I called back yesterday and asked the hungry to entertain you. Teacher He, Xiao Tong, you must give face to hunger. The second sister-in-law invited very warmly.

He Xin couldn't shirk it, so he had to nod and agree.

The second sister-in-law was very happy, and then pulled Tong Yali and said, "Xiao Tong, hungry people are leaving!"

"Brother Xin, then we'll ......," Tong Yali asked.

"Go ahead, be careful when you go up the mountain!"

"Got it. ”

"Teacher He, don't worry, you are hungry, I guarantee Mo Si. The second sister-in-law also patted her bulging chest happily.

He Xin parked the car in the open space at the city gate, and then swayed into the village with his hands behind his back. There are a lot of idle yards in the village, most of them are very dilapidated, and the five black donkeys are usually fostered in the livestock shed that belongs to the public property of the village committee.

Since today's feeding has been done by the second sister-in-law, He Xin dragged the donkey and walked along the dirt road around the village, eating the grass that was about to wither, and drinking some mountain spring water, which can be regarded as a liaison between people and donkeys.

In fact, at first, he was still relatively unfamiliar and afraid of the donkey, for fear of being kicked by this beast, it was not a joke. Later, the old man in the village helped to teach him for a few days, and he found that in fact, the donkey is still very docile, and it is no problem to drive, grind, and even ride on people.

I wandered around the village for most of the morning, not so much a donkey, but not a man. Although He Xin was a little unaccustomed to it when he first came here, after a long time, he found that it was actually a very enjoyable thing to lead a donkey, walk between the mountains and streams, breathe the sweet air, look at the blue sky and white clouds, and completely empty himself.

When it was almost noon, the villagers who went into the mountain early in the morning to pick dogwoods came out of the mountains one after another, carrying heavy baskets on their backs.

When they saw He Xin walking on a donkey, they all greeted him warmly.

For them, it is a very new thing to see the stars who often appear in TV dramas, and they were very shy at the beginning, but later they found that this person who looked very fierce on TV was always smiling, and took the initiative to greet them, so they began to respond boldly.

He Xin also led the donkey back to the barn slowly, and skillfully fed the donkey with sorghum mixed with forage in the village. After finishing his work, he washed his hands and wiped his face, changed out of the old clothes he used to work, boiled a pot of tea with a mountain spring, and sat at the gate of the courtyard and tasted it slowly.
