Chapter 617 Is that a truck?
Chapter 617 Is that a truck?
Just as Ye Sanqing predicted, the outdoor scenes would take full advantage of periods with good lighting.
So she didn't rest until sunset, after filming the last scene of the evening.
Today we have several scenes set in two locations: the desert and the border area with the Central Plains. Theoretically, they're quite far apart, but in reality, the filming...
Just move a little distance and change your perspective; you're still in the same area.
Since we've come to the desert, there has to be a sunset.
A duel at dusk is the true romance of martial arts...
Actually, no, duels can be romantic at any time, like a moonlit night at the Forbidden City.
Qi Nanzhao adjusted the schedule today, making several contingency plans for which scenes would be filmed earlier if everything went smoothly, and also notified the actors.
So everyone was mentally prepared.
The second fight scene between Ye Sanqing and Su Xingyi is this scene in the desert at dusk.
Knowing that their skills exceeded expectations, the production team discussed with the martial arts instructors and increased the difficulty of the choreography.
I also incorporated my personal style, of course, without compromising the character's established persona.
For example, Ye Sanqing's move "Sunset Sandstorm" is very suitable for this scene, and the domineering feeling of the wind rising from the ground is also in line with Dugu Rang.
When filming wrapped up, everyone was exhausted, except for Qi Nanzhao, who muttered to himself, "Night filming..."
Then she quickly gave up.
It's already been twelve or thirteen hours. If we continue filming night scenes, we'll be working for twenty hours straight. Even if things are going very smoothly, we can't go on like this. We still need to make sure everyone gets some rest.
After all, including yesterday's scenes, we've already covered the equivalent of two scenes ahead of schedule...
If things continue to develop at this pace, there will be more than enough time.
As Ye Sanqing passed by, he asked her, "Director Qi, are you taking a break? Want to have dinner together?"
Su Xingyi chimed in, "Let's do it together!"
They both removed their makeup and changed their clothes, keeping only their hairstyles, making it easy for them to move around.
Ye Sanqing already had a simple high ponytail, which was fine; keeping it or not made no difference.
Su Xingyi kept it because her hairstyle had some braids and small braids, and it was done in the afternoon when she didn't have any scenes to film. It was the hairstyle in the second outfit, which was all small braids combed together into a high ponytail.
This is similar to Ye Sanqing's fake tattoo design; if it can be used for consecutive filming sessions, it will be temporarily retained.
Fortunately, it's relatively dry here, so it should last for two or three days without any problem.
This is not something that actors are required to do, because sometimes they have to attend events. For example, they might be filming during the day, change their costume at night to catch a flight, and then have to redo their costume the next day.
But Su Xingyi figured since there was nothing else to do, she might as well leave it as is; it would be hard for the makeup artist to redo it all anyway...
"Okay, let's go."
Qi Nanzhao was straightforward, announcing directly through a megaphone, "Everyone, take a break! There are no plans for tonight!"
Everyone: Applause!
Even though I already knew there was probably no schedule for the evening, it still felt different when the director personally announced a break.
The temperature difference between day and night is significant in this place, so it's important to keep warm at night. The crew lit some bonfires, creating a strangely festive atmosphere.
Dinner was a boxed meal delivered from the kitchen. Since there were no other plans, and everyone had changed their clothes, we could eat together more easily.
Ye Sanqing: I'll eat.
Su Xingyi: "It seems that Senior Sister Ye is really tired today."
Su Xingyi understood this very well, and even envied it greatly.
After all, when you're exercising a lot, you need to consume enough nutrients to maintain your energy, but she can't eat that much.
In this situation, the only way to maintain the condition is by drinking protein powder or other supplements...
"It's normal procedure, you guys eat too."
Ye Sanqing took the third boxed lunch and said.
Braised pork chops, delicious!
If it hadn't been packaged as a set meal, Ye Sanqing would have loved to use it to make a pure meat burger.
It's just meat and cheese, meat and cheese, meat and cheese... layers upon layers of meat and cheese, one bite and you get a calorie explosion of pleasure.
"I'm almost done, I'm going back to watch the movie now."
Qi Nanzhao ate very quickly, seemingly eager to finish his work as soon as possible.
She's very motivated now!
Ye Sanqing smiled and said, "Director, you've worked hard. We'll take a break now."
"Take a break, take a break now, because there might be a time later when you can't take a break. Don't complain about me then, haha."
Qi Nanzhao made a joke and walked away. Ye Sanqing asked Su Xingyi, "What are your plans for tonight?"
"Did I make a mistake by not letting them bring the RV over? Would it be too much trouble to go back and get it now?"
Su Xingyi looked around and realized that he was the only one who had only driven a nanny van and not a motorhome, which made him feel a little annoyed.
"It's okay, you can use mine. Let's do it together tonight."
"Is the place big enough?"
Although Su Xingyi's RV is comfortable, it is only suitable for single-person use; it would be too crowded with more than one person.
"See if it's big enough."
Ye Sanqing had never actually seen his own RV before, so he asked Xiaoyou to lead the way.
"...Is this a motorhome? It looks like a truck."
Su Xingyi: Stunned!
Ye Sanqing: "...Just tell me if it's big enough or not."
At the same time, she thought to herself, "My second brother is really pretentious..."
To put it simply, the front of this thing looks almost like Optimus Prime, and it's painted a very eye-catching bright red...
Whose aesthetic is it anyway...?
Then the entire vehicle body is about the size of a truck.
This thing should be restricted from entering the city by large vehicles, and should only be allowed at night...
However, Ye Sanqing was quite satisfied. So what if the colors were a bit flashy? She really liked the feeling of a "fortress that could survive even if the apocalypse came".
The two opened the door and got into the car, which was filled with a high-tech feel.
It not only has a separate bedroom and bathroom, but also a living room and kitchen that are almost the size of a small apartment...
The decorations are extremely simple and streamlined, and instead of that garish bright red, they mainly use black, white and gray, which Ye Sanqing prefers.
There's also a dedicated space for a makeup mirror and a bunk bed for assistants, showing how thoughtful the arrangement was.
"This sofa is also usable. Pull it out and it becomes a bed."
Xiaoyou said that she had already become familiar with the structure of the RV before Ye Sanqing.
"Then I'll use the sofa bed, that's perfect!"
Su Xingyi immediately pulled out the sofa bed, sat on it, and bounced a couple of times.
"Okay, let's do that then. Shall we go outside and warm ourselves by the fire?"
Ye Sanqing smiled.
Actually, she didn't mind sharing a bed with Su Xingyi, because that bed was really big enough...
But since they chose the sofa bed, that's fine too.
As for the assistants, they can stay in the assistant's quarters if they want, or use the tents set up by the production team outside.
After all, some people just feel more comfortable sleeping on the ground than in a car.
