Chapter 025: Uncle Comes by Lightning
There are many seaside scenes in the film, and the hotel where the actors and directors live is also chosen by the sea. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the sea. The first night in F City, there wasn't much going on. Sitting in bed with nothing to do and playing mobile games, the person who invented the pop-screen is a genius, and this thing is definitely a magic weapon to pass the time out of boredom.
Chen Sisi went to the beach for a walk, but Murphy was not interested, turned off the game and lay on the bed, slightly sad. Uncle obviously said that he would call her back when he was free, why has it been a day, and there is still no news, and he is fooling her again? Fingers unconsciously opened the uncle's phone book, staring at the string of numbers without blinking, the screen was dark and lit again, but it was not dialed for a long time.
"Honey, do you think girls can't be too proactive?"
A meal made Murphy and Chen Sisi much closer, and the titles became intimate.
Chen Sisi was going to wait to go out, and was looking for clothes at the bottom of the box, picking up a suspender and gesturing on his body. "It should be."
Murphy rolled over and sighed. "But what if the girl doesn't take the initiative, and the boy doesn't think it's anything, and he doesn't take the initiative to find a girl?" After saying that, I feel that something is wrong, and the uncle can't seem to be called a boy anymore, an old man of such an age.
"But girls can't always be too proactive! If he doesn't reply to you all the time, wouldn't you be very shameless? ”
"Uhhhh But..."Is face or love important?" ”
"Just as important!"
"But you can't have both bear paws and fish."
Chen Sisi's nose 'hummed', the little story was too immature. "You know what! With a clever strategy, you can get both. "I finally changed it and put on a colorful lipstick to my satisfaction." Are you in love? "The first time I saw Murphy, I just thought she was stupid, I really didn't expect her to fall in love, and I suddenly felt that I had failed, and sure enough, a pure girl is in love.
Murphy was a little shy, and his phone covered his face. "Hehe, sort of."
"What do you mean?"
"It's supposed to be together."
Chen Sisi threw off his clothes and looked at the nymphomaniac with questioning eyes. "It can't be that you're chasing someone, right?"
"Wow! Sisi, you're so amazing! Not only do you know how to fall in love, but you can also read minds! ”
Chen Sisi was speechless, which eye did she see that she could read minds? Obviously, she just wrote the words "chasing backwards" on her face. Without further ado, he picked up his bag and put it on his shoulder, "Are you really not going out?" ”
Chen Sisi's confident appearance made Murphy feel that she was extraordinarily reliable, and jumped up excitedly and hugged her as if hugging her thighs. "I'll go out with you, will you teach me how to chase men?"
Chen Sisi didn't react for a long time, she taught her how to chase men?
…… Wait, why did she somehow become a love mentor? Obviously, he is still a single dog for 10,000 years.
However, although she was reluctant, she really became a 'pseudo-emotional mentor' in the following months. In order to satisfy Murphy's gushing incurable illness in love, in addition to working as an assistant for Chu Heng, he also had to learn the love treasure book. By the time the scenes in F City were all over, Murphy's record of her famous sayings about love had been densely written in a whole notebook.
Of course, that's all for later.
The next day, because of the shooting task, Murphy struggled to get out of bed before seven o'clock. At this moment, she is especially grateful to Mo Dad for the coffee powder prepared in advance, which is refreshing and very powerful. Sitting energetically in the hall on the first floor, waiting for Chu Heng and his agent Yang Si to go downstairs.
Chu Heng's agent Yang Si has nothing to do with Chu Heng's assistant Chen Sisi, and the name is the same, which is purely a coincidence.
In the past, filming, whether it was a modern drama or a costume drama, was to wear the costumes prepared by the crew, or the clothes of the sponsors, but now in modern films, most actors do wear their own clothes and follow their own stylists with them. Some artists really can't blame themselves for their poor taste in dressing, they are completely blind stylists.
In Chu Heng's black business car, Murphy and Chen Sisi sat in the rear, Chu Heng and the economist sat in the middle, and the stylist sat in the co-pilot's seat. In a certain way, Murphy has never really been with an artist, and she only occasionally sat in a car to catch an announcement with Qiao Shan before, so she didn't know the situation in the real artist's business car.
I saw Chen Sisi take out a water cup from his bag while explaining today's itinerary to Chu Heng. "Today is a full day of shooting, and at 10 a.m. it is the opening ceremony, and there will be some media from F City present, and there will be a short interview after the ceremony. In the evening, I went to a local talk show in Thailand. ”
Murphy was a little stunned when she heard it, she didn't know about the formation of the program recording at night, and was a little annoyed that she didn't do her job properly, but she couldn't help but sigh that she thought that the actors were just filming when they were filming, but they didn't expect that even if they came abroad, they would have to catch up with the announcement.
Chu Heng looked obviously sleep-deprived, and his impatience was overflowing. "Got it, anything else?"
Chen Sisi is cautious. "Nope."
Murphy suddenly felt that the situation was not good, and quickly shrank into the corner of the back seat, not daring to come out, turning himself into a transparent person, but still unable to dodge.
"Are you ready for the propaganda work?" Chu Heng said with a playful voice looking at Murphy in the rearview mirror.
Except for Murphy, all the old people in the car who had followed Chu Heng from his debut, and they were very familiar with his temperament, and it was the first time that they cared so much about whether the preparations of the people around them had done enough, and they were inevitably surprised.
When asked about the fact that people were different from them, she found it terrifying. "Yes, you're ready."
"Oh~ That's good, don't let me down." After speaking, the corners of his mouth pulled out an evil smile, and he closed his eyes without waiting for her to answer.
Even with his eyes closed, he could imagine Murphy's embarrassed expression.
Murphy soothed his chest and managed to escape. Yang Sizheng looked at her with strange eyes, she had to pretend to be very busy and send Chen Sisi a WeChat message, asking for the itinerary and the process list of the evening interview.
Although this project is only an urban romance light comedy film, it can be seen from the lineup of the creative team behind the scenes that the company attaches great importance to it. Director Xu Feng is a rising star among domestic directors, who has won a number of heavyweight awards with three films in recent years, and is good at telling intriguing stories and shooting pictures pleasantly.
Chu Heng won the Best Newcomer Actor at the 29th Blue Dragon Awards at the beginning of the year, with "Tokyo Spring" with director Xu Feng, which shows that the director's ability is good. may be out of the relationship with the director, Chu Heng, who has always been arrogant and rude, arrived on the set half an hour early and took the initiative to greet the director enthusiastically.
The temperature in Thailand was extremely hot at half past nine in the morning, and Murphy was still sweating and uncomfortable wearing shorts and short sleeves. Seeing Chu Heng enter the dressing room, he followed in. The cold air was blowing in my face, and the temperature difference was huge, and I couldn't help but shiver.
Murphy always thought that filming was carried out in order according to the script, but when he really got in touch, he found that it was not like this. Each actor's schedule is different, and the scenes are also arranged according to the actor's own time. For example, the scene to be filmed today is a scene where only the male and female protagonists and heroines meet. The second male has other activities and needs to arrive tomorrow. Speaking of the male number two, I was suddenly a little curious, as if I didn't know who played it. [Voiceover: It's all written in the script, but you haven't read it.] 】
Sister Xuanzi's work effect is efficient and fast, according to the planned time, at ten o'clock in the morning, the start-up ceremony officially began. There are not many on-site media, basically the local media in F City. The company did not plan to hold a big event, but only prepared regular content.
Artists promote this job, and when artists are filming, they are basically photographers and tidbits recorders, such as Murphy now.
Although the boot-up ceremony is simple, there is no shortage of what should be there. In the center of the crowd counted a large sign two meters high and four or five meters wide, which read 'The Launching Ceremony of the Movie "Love"" in bold letters. In front of the sign was a table covered with red cloth, on which was placed a golden incense burner, and six or seven incense sticks were checked. The senior leaders of Lecheng Media, the behind-the-scenes creative team and the leading actors were surrounded in the middle, holding incense with their hands stern, and worshipping sincerely to all directions, praying that the film would shoot smoothly and that the next year would have a good box office.
Murphy huddled in the pile of Thai reporters, others holding long. Gun. Big. Cannon, she held the Apple mobile phone, the pixel difference was 108,000 miles, but she still stretched her neck for countless consecutive shots. Chu Heng's eyes glanced at her side, and she didn't think much about giving him a thumbs up happily. Murphy pursed his lips, he couldn't deny that Overlord Chu looked much more handsome than usual when he got serious.
After the short start-up ceremony, Chu Heng took advantage of the gap in the scene to accept an interview with the Thai media. Fluent in English and fluent. Murphy, on the other hand, stood not far behind him with a mask, taking photos and recordings, busier than the person being interviewed.
"You look like a giraffe." Chu Heng, who had finished the interview, walked up to Murphy and said casually.
Murphy was looking at the photo and replied casually, "Are giraffes bad?" ”
"Good! It's so good! You can eat it for a long time if you chop it off. ”
“……”
Two minutes later, the sluggish man finally reacted, but the person who did the blame had already run to the director and gloated.
Since there was a local program that needed to be recorded at night, before four o'clock, Chu Heng's shooting task for today was completed. I didn't have time to take off my makeup, so I left directly in the car. Sister Xuanzi had to catch a plane back to City B at night, and there were some tasks that needed to be assigned to her, so she was left in the lounge for a meeting with Qin Jiajia.
"Are you still used to coming here?" Sister Xuanzi asked.
Murphy smiled lightly. "Well, it's all good."
Because I live well, I eat well, and I really can't find anything bad compared to Qin Jiajia.
Xuanzi patted her shoulder as expected, and said earnestly: "This is just the beginning, and it will become very hard in a few days." ”
"Sister, don't worry, I'm not afraid of hardship, I will work hard to complete the task you gave me."
Xuanzi didn't say any more polite words, she knew that even if she said more hard things now, it would be useless, and she could only rely on Murphy to slowly understand.
"Jiajia should have told you the content of the work of the group publicity, right?"
"Hmm." Said on the plane.
"Well, it's not a lot of work, but it's very complicated and requires a lot of patience. If you cooperate with Jia Jiaduo, he still has more experience than you, and he is also very careful, you can learn more from him. ”
Murphy smiled and looked at Qin Jiajia, who was sitting next to him and didn't speak, and nodded firmly. "Well, I will."
After sending Xuanzi away, Murphy went back to the hotel with Qin Jiajia to pick up things. Qin Jiajia lived with the crew, and the location was very close to the filming location, so they chose to walk. The company is equipped with two card cameras, so that the publicity can be carried at any time, so that they can shoot at any time.
Hotel room.
"Can I take other pictures with this camera?"
"For example, yourself?"
Murphy was a little embarrassed and twisted his head. "No, for example, the scenery, the humanities or something~"
"Yes, as long as you don't have extra photos when you return them to the company."
"Really~~~"
Qin Jiajia is a kind person, but she sees through it but doesn't say it, but reminds her. "There's a lot of memory, enough for you to shoot."
His words were exactly what Murphy wanted, she brought a lot of things with her on this business trip, but she forgot to bring a camera. On the way to the scene by car in the morning, I saw the beautiful scenery on both sides, and my heart was very itchy, but my mobile phone was not powerful.
The place where Qin Jiajia lives is a little shabby, and it can't be called a hotel, it can only be said to be a hotel. You need to bring your own daily necessities in the hotel, not even towels.
"Our company is so poor, don't you even have a decent hotel?"
Murphy looked around, the conditions were so simple, it really felt sad for the crew.
Qin Jiajia didn't think so. "This is already good, the group I was with before was in the grassland, not to mention daily necessities, even the quilt had to be brought, and there was air conditioning and access control here."
"Why is that?"
"It's not like this, it's just that many crews used to behave inappropriately in the store, which made their reputation stink. Now the hotel is reluctant to rent when I hear that it is for filming, and even if it is rented, it will take away all the valuables, and I can't wait to leave only one bed. ”
Murphy was dumbfounded when he heard this, and his illusions were instantly shattered, imagining that the crew should be embraced.
"So now the reputation has stinked abroad, right?"
"It's not that this hotel is opened by Chinese."
Murphy suddenly realized, I see! She looked around again, no wonder the hotel owner was worried, this room was too messy. It's only been a day, and I can't bear to look at it at all. Clothes are littered, and there is a bucket of instant noodles left over from last night's drink on the table. "The aunt from the hotel didn't come to clean up the room, did she?"
Qin Jiajia laughed. "It's coming, I guess the boss will come to clean up one day if he can't stand it anymore."
Murphy shook his head speechlessly, and quickly withdrew from the room. "Is there anything else you haven't bought? I'll go with you. ”
Qin Jiajia, who was gnawing on the sausage belly, waved her hand. "If I don't go today, there are still a lot of things that are not ready."
Murphy hesitated a few steps forward. "Do you need my help?"
"Not for the time being, you can go back and rest today, there will be more busy in a few days."
"Alright then, you've worked hard."
Qin Jiajia's room is the deepest room in the hotel, and you need to pass through a deep corridor to get to the entrance. There are some staff members in the crew who did not go to the scene today. At this moment, he is not shy away from opening the door at all, wearing a racer-shaped vest on his upper body, sitting on a stool with Erlang's legs crossed, and making a foul phone call. The smell of the room blends with the dampness of the environment, which is very uncomfortable. Walking quickly to the hall, I really sweated for Qin Jiajia's white and thin body, this is the first day, and there is still a month and a half in the future.
From this point of view, the biggest difference between Murphy and Qin Jiajia's place of residence is not the environment, but the service.
When Murphy checked in yesterday, the hotel thoughtfully gave each room two local bus cards. When she went out in the morning, she asked the waiter in advance about the crew's route back to the hotel. Buses in Thailand come in several colors, and there is a difference between air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned buses. In such a hot weather, she resolutely chose an air-conditioned car. Sitting in the car, she couldn't help but thank Chu Heng, otherwise she would have to live in that place with Qin Jiajia.
Not much happened, and Murphy chose to go to bed early. Chen Sisi only came back at about two o'clock in the morning. Murphy was a little aware of the bed, and in a daze, he heard the door open in the middle of the night, but his eyes were tired and could not be opened, and he fell asleep again. In the dream, the uncle's sexy and smooth face appeared, calling her name one after another. One night of spring. Dream director zhì Murphy got up early the next morning and called his uncle, but as expected, no one answered.
Murphy, who was not in good spirits, did not lose her sanity because of this, she spent two hours outside in shorts and short sleeves yesterday, and when she returned in the evening, she found that her skin was a little red, and she realized how strong the local ultraviolet rays were. When she went out today, she wore a sunscreen, a floral dress, a scarf, and a sun hat, wrapping herself tightly and not hot.
After going downstairs, she waited for Chu Heng in the hall with Chen Sisi at the agreed time, and received a call to pick up something in the car halfway. The lobby of this hotel is very special, with a high wall between the lobby and the entrance turnstiles. After going around, I found that it was raining heavily. The two looked at each other for a moment, the rain really fell without warning, and it was fine when they went downstairs.
Chu Heng's car was parked outside, so he could only call the master and ask him to drive to the turnstile here. There was a lot of rain, lightning and thunder. Murphy picked up her skirt and curled up in the corner on tiptoe to hide from the rain. Seeing a bolt of lightning slash down, Murphy screamed and provoked the displeasure of the people next to him.
"Why can't I get rid of the bad problem of fuss when I go abroad?"
The rain in Thailand came suddenly and violently, but it also brought a slight coolness. The rain poured down, washing the milky white marble floor clean and spotless. The water splashed and quickly wet Murphy's flowing floral dress, but she didn't care about it. The sound is so familiar, yet so unreal. The body stiffened, turned around mechanically, and slowly raised his head, the tall man beside him, a head taller than himself.
The rain splashed a little stain on his polished black leather shoes, and he didn't care about just standing straight, his black suit trousers made him more elegant, and the cuffs of his clean pure white shirt were turned up, revealing strong forearms and slender fingers. The two buttons at the neckline of the shirt are loose, and the sexy collarbone and Adam's apple have a fatal temptation. The Adam's apple trembled slightly, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and his clear eyes were fixed on the stupid person beside him.
"What? Don't know me anymore? ”
Murphy was stunned for three seconds, and then cried uncontrollably.
The pink fist clenched and swung at the strong arm of the man in front of him. "Uncle Badass! Why don't you answer my call! ”
He was stunned, the first thing this girl said when they met turned out to be this. The smile is thicker, and the eyes become more doting.
"I was in the car, I didn't have my phone with me."
Murphy sniffed. "Huh? Uncle, didn't you come by lightning? ”
