"Ladies and gentlemen, our plane is about to take off, please double confirm that your seatbelt is fastened and your phone is out of airplane mode, thank you......"

Listening to the prompt sound from the plane's announcement, Qin Muchu looked at the old man next to him and said:

"Director Zhang, it's still too late for you to get off the plane now, and if you want to fly up for a while, you will have to parachute."

Zhang Yimou was watching the sub-shots of "Love Letter", thinking about how to achieve such an effect if he shot it himself.

Hearing Qin Muchu's words, he didn't speak, cocked Erlang's legs, turned slightly sideways, turned his back to Qin Muchu and continued to look at the sub-camera.

Hey, this old man is quite tsundere right now.

Qin Muchu smiled as he looked at this scene.

At that time, Zeng Li told him that Lao Mouzi wanted to give him a photographer, and he immediately picked Zeng Li up and pressed him to the bed, and slapped his ass a few times as a punishment for dishonesty.

But after calling Lao Mouzi back, he found that this was true, and Lao Mouzi's attitude was extremely firm, so he could only rub his butt apologetically to the big beauty who was blushing and wanted to fight with him.

"Xiao Qin, will this play be too peaceful?"

Zhang Yimou, who had been "arrogant" for half an hour, finally spoke.

I used to have this feeling when I read the script, but now after watching the storyboard for a few days, this feeling is even stronger.

A romance movie, not to mention kissing, but not even holding hands and hugging.

"It's a little flat......"

Qin Muchu also nodded, it was normal for Lao Mouzi to think so.

In the original "Love Letter", Hiroko had a relationship with Akiba after the death of the male Fujii tree, and the two also had a kiss scene.

But in his version, this relationship line was cut and changed to Ye Qiu (Autumn Leaves) having a crush on Nan Li (Hiroko).

With this change, the degree of pure love has increased, but there are fewer ups and downs of the plot.

But......

"Romance movies don't have to be so thrilling, just shoot the beauty of love."

He is confident that he can shoot the effect he wants, especially when Lao Mouzi joins, he is even more confident to turn the picture in his mind into reality.

These will be known when the video is filmed, and it is difficult to experience just by looking at the script and storyboards.

Seeing this, Lao Mouzi didn't say much.

If there is a problem, it is not impossible to change it when the time comes......

Yanjing and Harbin were closer than Qin Muchu imagined, but after more than two hours, the plane began to land.

"Sir, the current temperature in Harbin is minus thirteen degrees Celsius, which is relatively cold, if you have thick clothes, please change them."

The flight attendants are reminding passengers one by one to change into thick clothes, and the radio is also announcing that there is a large temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, so pay attention to the cold.

"-13 degrees Celsius...... Tsk, my fridge isn't that cold. ”

Although he had already checked the temperature information in Harbin, Qin Muchu couldn't help but smack his tongue, changed into a down jacket that had been prepared a long time ago and got off the plane.

When I stepped out of the cabin door, I was greeted by a cold wind like a knife.

"It's so cold in here."

Zhou Huimin shrunk his neck and leaned against Zeng Li.

was worried about Lao Mouzi on the side, and Zhang Mo, who came with him, also regretted a little, if he was filming outdoors in this weather, he was afraid that he would not freeze to death.

Fortunately, the airport bus immediately drove to the bottom of the stairs of the cabin door, and the bus was air-conditioned, which was better.

"Haha, Director Qin, it's the first time I've come to the Northeast, I'm not used to it."

Outside the airport, Zhao Benshan stepped down from a black RV and walked towards Qin Muchu and his party with an eager smile.

But when he saw Zhang Yimou, he was stunned:

"Brother Yimou is also here? It's ......"

Zhang Yimou smiled:

"Ah, Benshan, I'm here to ...... Xiao Qin"

"Director Zhang is the producer I invited, and he helped me check the gates, and I begged for a long time before agreeing."

Before Zhang Yimou, Qin Muchu spoke.

"Producer?"

Zhao Benshan looked at Qin Muchu and then at Zhang Yimou.

I haven't said this last time we met, and I know that there must be an inside story, but since people don't say it, he doesn't ask much.

Immediately laughed:

"Then our drama is amazing, this is the rhythm of leaving a name in film history, haha. Hurry up, get in the car, it's cold outside. ”

After getting into the car, Qin Muchu looked around.

Zhao Benshan's RV is very large and luxurious, which is not much better than what Qin Muchu bought for Zeng Li and Zhou Huimin before.

"Director Qin, I saw that the hotel we stayed in before was too far away from the set, and it was inconvenient to go back and forth, so I made my own decisions and found a guest house with Assistant Director Ma, and I didn't notify ......you in advance."

Zhao Benshan said apologetically.

"How can it, Uncle Benshan, the conditions of the guest house are no worse than the hotel." Qin Muchu replied with a smile.

Ma Debiao, who came in advance with the crew, had already reported to him.

Because the background of "Love Letter" is about ninety-five years, the filming location cannot be very prosperous, so a backward town in Harbin was chosen.

There is a small hotel in the local area, and it can accommodate about 20 people if it is crowded together, and the conditions are not good.

had no choice but to choose a hotel in the city, and I was taking a car to the set during filming.

This time there was a delay of at least two hours, and if it snowed heavily, he might not be able to leave.

There is a lot of weather like this in Harbin.

But Zhao Benshan made a move and directly got the local guest house for them to live in as a hotel.

Ma Debiao didn't have this idea, but people ignored him at all.

That's networking.

The RV drove smoothly, and after about two hours, it came to a slow stop.

As soon as Qin Muchu got out of the car, he saw a crowd of people.

There were men, women, men and children, and they all stood on a road, staring at them and talking about them.

"Welcome, welcome, welcome to this town to film."

A tall middle-aged man was followed by a group of people, who swarmed up as several people got out of the car.

"This is ......" Qin Muchu was surrounded by everyone enthusiastically, and he was still a little blind.

"This is the local magistrate of Ma, he is the secretary of the town on his left, the mayor of the town on his right, and the others are local leaders."

Zhao Benshan whispered, and then turned to the smiling County Magistrate Ma and said:

"Brother Ma, didn't you say don't do this? I've already caused you a lot of trouble, how can I let you welcome you in person. ”

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, it's great that Mr. Benshan can come to our county to film, the city leaders have repeatedly asked us to be entertained, and if there are any requirements, we must be satisfied."

"Then thank you, brother, haha!"

Zhao Benshan laughed, and then introduced him to the people behind him:

"Come, brother, let me introduce you to the real Buddha, Director Qin Muchu, and Director Zhang, these three beauties, one is Director Zhang's daughter, and the other two are excellent actors in our country."

"Hard knowledge, hard knowledge, how can you not have hard knowledge, I already felt that Director Qin was coming, and my sister thought that Director Zhang was also here......"

County Magistrate Ma's eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Yimou, and he was about to go up to shake hands.

Suddenly, a loud "crackling" sound startled several people.

Firecrackers were lit not far away, sending smoke into the air.

However, such a blow also interrupted the politeness of a few people.

"Let's go inside, it's ready in the guest house." County Commander Ma shouted.

So the crowd walked towards the guest house, and a man who was left behind waved at the crowd that surrounded the road:

"Let's go back first, Teacher Benshan has also seen it, and we will be filming for the next few days, you can't embarrass our town."

In the shouting, Qin Muchu looked up before entering.

The sign that was supposed to be "XX Town Guest House" was covered by a red banner that read, "Welcome Teacher Zhao Benshan and Director Qin Muchu to come to this town for filming".

I suddenly remembered a sentence in my heart: After passing the Shanhaiguan, I will find Zhao Benshan.

……

After the banquet.

Qin Muchu blushed, and with the support of Zhou Huimin and Zeng Li, he returned to the room arranged for him in the guest house.

Not long after entering the door here, Zhang Mo, who had just calmed down Lao Mouzi, walked in, looked at Qin Muchu who was paralyzed on the bed and asked:

"Director Qin is fine, I drank a lot at noon."

She also came this time with an identity and the assistant director who organized the on-site shooting, Zhang Yimou asked her to join the group and shouted "Director Qin".

"It's okay, it's just ...... A little dizzy. ”

Qin Muchu's intermittent voice came, and he raised his hand as if he wanted to support himself to stand up, but he put it down weakly.

He didn't struggle anymore and asked:

"How is Director Zhang?"

"I've gone to bed after drinking a glass of water."

Zhang Mo replied, and then asked:

"By the way, my dad asked if you would like to go to the scene in the afternoon? He's with you if you go. ”

Qin Muchu's drunken face showed surprise when he heard this:

"Can Director Zhang get up in the afternoon?"

At the lunch dinner, he got to know the hospitality and ...... of the Northeast people Horrible amount of alcohol.

Over the years, his alcohol consumption has now reached the point where he can go out standing with three glasses (small glasses) of liquor, but today two glasses are on the top.

The wine called the burning knife really tasted like a red-hot knife stabbed in the heart.

The key is that except for the girls who didn't drink, everyone else at the dinner seemed to think that the wine was very refreshing, one cup after another.

If he hadn't seen his wine come out of a bottle with them, he would have wondered if they were drinking water.

Lao Mouzi drank an estimated half of the bottle, which was already lethal for Qin Muchu.

And those local leaders, as well as Zhao Benshan, are really "the amount of alcohol on one finger" and have been drinking.

When he and Lao Mouzi withdrew, Zhao Benshan was still drinking with the leaders.

"My dad said just get some sleep." Zhang Mo also felt that Lao Mouzi had better rest for an afternoon, but he couldn't resist him.

So I can only hope that Qin Muchu will not go to the set in the afternoon.

But it was obvious that Qin Muchu didn't get it.

Since Lao Mouzi has to insist on working at such an age, there is no reason why he should not go.

So he said:

"Okay, then I'll sleep for a while, and I'll call Director Zhang in the afternoon."

“……”

didn't understand why Qin Muchu was suddenly a little excited, Zhang Mo had no choice but to inform Lao Mouzi's room number when he heard this, and then went out.

When I arrived at the door, I paused and waited, but no one responded for a long time.

Only then did he ask:

"Sister Li, Hui Min, will you stay here to take care of Director Qin?"

"Hmmm......"

Zhou Huimin just wanted to nod, but Zeng Li suddenly grabbed her waist and smiled at Zhang Mo, who had a strange expression:

"He doesn't have to take care of him, let's boil some water for him before leaving."

Although Zhang Mo felt that something was wrong, he didn't think much about it, and pointed to the table at the door:

"No need to boil water, it's in a boiling water bottle."

"Okay, then let's do it together."

Zeng Li pulled Zhou Huimin, who had reacted, and left with Zhang Mo......

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Muchu was woken up by the alarm clock.

Rubbing his eyes, he slept for more than two hours, and the little wine he drank was basically gone.

Get up and look at the room in the guest house.

One bedroom with a bathroom, furnished with everything, similar to the photos Ma Debiao sent him.

It's good to have this condition for filming in a small town, and I don't have the luxury of having any bicycles.

remembered that before going to bed, Zhang Mo said that Lao Mouzi wanted to watch the scene and called him along, he got some water to rinse his mouth, and went to Lao Mouzi's room.

The scenes of "Love Letters" are not complicated, mainly at home, school, library and snowy mountains.

In addition to the snow-capped mountains, which need to be filmed in other places, the home, the school classroom, and the school library are all filmed in the town.

Let's not talk about it at home, there are no special requirements for this scene, just two detached country yards.

And the school classroom and library are the top priority, because the secret love story of Li Muzhi, a man and woman in high school in the movie, takes place here, and all the innocence and beauty of the movie happen here.

They are in school right now.

"This school has a history of 40 years, and the town was quite wealthy back then, with more than a dozen villages and towns around it, all of which went to school here, and at its peak there were thousands of students.

But now there are dozens of students, classrooms and libraries are abandoned, and we have renovated a classroom according to your request, and the library has also been built. ”

Ma Debiao introduced on the side, while Qin Muchu and Zhang Yimou were looking around.

There are Zeng Li, Zhou Huimin, and Zhang Mo behind him.

The walls are ruined and the grass is overgrown.

These eight words are really not an exaggeration to describe this place.

It seems to be a forgotten corner of a bygone era, and it is full of an atmosphere that is out of step with the current era.

But Qin Muchu was very happy, this was what he wanted.

"Click".

He held up the camera around his neck and took pictures of the scenery around him.

The sunset had already begun at three o'clock in the afternoon in Harbin, and the yellow and red sunset shone on the broken wall, illuminating every crack dazzlingly.

As I walked, I walked and walked in front of the teaching building, with mottled green wooden doors, and above the door there was a piece of third (second) class written in white paint.

However, after the erosion of time, the paint has long since faded and become blurry.

Qin Muchu only felt that he had been poked by something, and the picture kept bursting out in his mind, pointing to the door:

"Zhou Huimin, you go to the front, at the door of that class, hurry up."

"Huh?"

Zhou Huimin, who was looking around, didn't react, and looked at Qin Muchu with a somewhat cute look in his eyes.

"Oops, stupid."

Qin Muchu couldn't help it, and directly pulled Zhou Huimin and ran towards the classroom.

"You're standing here, your hands naturally down, in front of you, carrying a school bag......"

Suddenly found that there was no schoolbag, he looked around, took off the camera bag hanging on his body, and handed it to Zhou Huimin.

"Just carry the harness."

He spoke, and then ignored the stunned Zhou Huimin, quickly took a few steps back, moved back and forth with the camera, and looked at the sun from time to time.

Eventually, he stopped, half-crouched and pressed the shutter.

Everyone else was stupid for Qin Muchu's sudden "neurosis".

What for?

Take a picture, so excited?

"Qin Muchu, are you okay?"

Zhou Huimin stood under the door and waved.

Qin Muchu, who originally stopped, saw this scene and pressed the shutter several times.

Looking at the photo that was immediately spit out, the smile was even more intense.

"Alright, come here."

He shouted with a wave of his hand.

Zhou Huimin then trotted over, and several other people also moved closer to Qin Muchu.

"Look."

Qin Muchu took out the few photos he had just taken.

A few people who were still a little puzzled, the moment they saw the photo, they suddenly felt their hearts twitch, no, to be precise, it should be some kind of throbbing.

What does it feel like?

Under the bright yellow sunset, the girl's eyes were a little ignorant and nervous, and her body exuded a beautiful but hazy light in the sun.

And the classroom behind it is half light and half dark.

The view is so beautiful that it is almost unreal, as if taken from a memory.

Because this kind of beauty can only be achieved with memories with various filters.

Zhang Yimou looked at the photo silently, and picked up the next one after a while.

This is Zhou Huimin waving his hand and asking Qin Muchu if he is okay, the ignorance and nervousness disappeared, replaced by anticipation.

Looking forward to seeing photos, or looking forward to taking pictures of yourself with someone you like.

He wasn't sure.

But he understood what the throbbing in his heart was before.

It is the most beautiful and pure secret love hidden in the heart of the past years, which is not even spoken.
