Chapter 166, "Gravity," is currently being filmed.
For the next ten days or so, the entire crew stayed in the studio.
Within the space enclosed by the green screen, the hum of the wires, the commands from the walkie-talkie, and Fu Yibai's shout of "Cut!" became the norm.
During the filming of the scene where the debris collided, Hu Jing was violently shaken in the air by wires, simulating the state of being thrown into the air by the impact in a weightless state.
For seven consecutive takes, her back slammed heavily onto the cushioning mat with each landing. After the eighth take, Fu Yibai called "Cut," but she didn't get up from the mat for a long time.
That evening, Fu Yibai went to Hu Jing's room and saw the woman secretly applying medicine to herself.
"Why didn't you have your assistant help you?"
Fu Yibai immediately stepped forward to apply the ointment to her.
"I don't want you to know, I'm afraid it will delay the progress."
"Fool, I can film other people's scenes first."
Take a good rest these next couple of days.
I'll film George's scenes first.
Fu Yibai pressed his palm, which was covered in cool ointment, against the bruises on her back.
Hu Jing lay face down on the bed, her face buried in the pillow. Her shoulders tensed for a moment, then slowly relaxed.
The ointment melted on his skin, carrying a minty coolness, but Fu Yibai's palms were surprisingly hot.
"Yi Bai, don't leave tonight~"
"You think you can do bad things looking like that?"
"No, I want you to hold me while I sleep."
"You."
Fu Yibai closed the cap on the ointment, got up, and walked towards the bathroom.
The next morning, when Hu Jing woke up, the person next to her was empty.
She propped herself up on the bed and sat up. The bruises on her back were still there, but they were better than last night.
The tube of ointment was on the bedside table, the cap screwed on tightly, with a sticky note next to it.
"Take a break today, don't come to the set."
I'll bring you something delicious tonight.
Hu Jing looked at the words and the corners of her mouth curved up.
She folded the note and put it in the bedside table drawer.
Then I lay back down on the bed and buried my face in the pillow.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Fu Yibai sat behind the monitor in the studio.
George Clooney was suspended in mid-air by wires, simulating weightlessness. He was in great shape, and the relaxed and unhurried demeanor he exuded on camera perfectly matched the character.
"Cut! Passed."
Fu Yibai stood up and nodded to George.
"Ten-minute break, then get ready for the next round."
George stepped off the wire, and his assistant immediately handed him water and a towel. He took them, wiped his sweat, and walked towards Fu Yibai.
"Fu, why isn't Hu here today?"
"She was injured yesterday, so I gave her a day off."
George raised an eyebrow, didn't ask any more questions, and sat down on the chair next to him.
Fu Yibai sat back down behind the monitor, his gaze fixed on the screen.
Filming continues.
Fu Yibai finished work at 5:30 pm.
He had the driver park the car in front of a private restaurant in the city, went inside and packed several dishes, all of which were Hu Jing's favorites.
It was already dark when we got back to the hotel.
He knocked on Hu Jing's door, and the door opened quickly.
Hu Jing stood at the door, wearing his white shirt, her legs bare, her hair loose.
Her face had a sleepy look, but her eyes were bright.
"You're back?"
"Um."
Fu Yibai shook the takeout bag in his hand.
"I brought you something delicious."
Hu Jing stepped aside to let him in, and closed the door behind her.
The room was heated, and there was a faint smell of medicinal ointment in the air.
Fu Yibai laid out the takeout bags on the coffee table, and Hu Jing sat down next to him and leaned over to take a look.
"So many?"
"Yes, eat more to replenish your energy."
Hu Jing chuckled and picked up her chopsticks.
The two ate quietly, occasionally exchanging a few casual words.
The night outside the window deepened, while the room was warmly lit.
After dinner, Hu Jing cleared the dishes, while Fu Yibai leaned back on the sofa looking at his phone.
The message on his phone was from Zhao Qi, asking if he would attend the premiere of "Your Name" the day after tomorrow.
Fu Yibai thought about it for a moment. After all, it was his screen debut, so he decided to go and watch it.
He won't be able to participate in the upcoming promotional tour, and if he doesn't attend the premiere, it would seem like he doesn't value the film.
On September 28, Fu Yibai gave the film crew a day off.
He took Hu Jing and Liu Yan to the premiere of "Your Name".
Fortunately, the China Film Digital Base is located in Huairou, not far away.
Six o'clock in the evening, Xinghe Cinema, Chaoyang District, Beijing.
As dusk fell, the red carpet was already packed with people on both sides.
Fans held up light boards, reporters set up their cameras and microphones, and some invited guests were already walking the red carpet.
The nanny van entered the underground parking garage.
Liu Yan sat in the passenger seat and glanced back.
"Mr. Fu, we've arrived."
"You two go walk the red carpet first."
I need to stay with Jing Tian.
"OK."
The three then got out of the car and took the elevator.
After the two women got out of the elevator, they went to find the person in charge of the company.
Fu Yibai went to find Jing Tian.
