Wei Ran was stunned and reviewed the recruitment information in his mind. Yes, the director requires courage and strong mental endurance.
"Then what do you want a bold actor to do?"
Yu Jing ticked his name, he has good acting skills, he is courageous and driven, he is very good.
"Oh, I plan to make a movie about ancient medical treatment, acupuncture and scraping, it hurts a bit." He replied casually.
Wei Ran twitched the corner of his mouth and nodded with a dry smile.
He didn't ask any more questions next. A few sentences showed that Yu Jing was tolerant, and asking questions again meant that he was pushing the envelope.
However, what is there to be afraid of in ancient medicine?
There are also things like ginseng in the interstellar world, but everyone just throws a strand in when making soup, and it’s considered a dietary supplement.
If Director Jing wants to film ancient medical treatment, is he going to make those bitter decoctions?
Wei Ran was not the only one to think this way. When Yu Jing returned home, she excitedly told her lover about the next movie, which earned Pei Yi a puzzled expression.
He opened the cupboard, and inside there were three ginseng that looked like radishes. The beards had been pulled out, and there wasn't much left. They had to be sliced next time to make soup.
"Ginseng was also considered a medicinal material in ancient times?"
"Forget it, it was a life-saving medicine in ancient times." Yu Jing complained, "You can only eat it as food, and you are not afraid of nosebleeds."
When he was bitten by Yu Bai in the shopping mall, the person in charge of the shopping mall gave him a few sticks, and when Hua Yingying casually stuffed them in, Yu Jing realized that Xingxing was eating them.
He didn't have an evolved body at that time, so he didn't dare to eat it for fear of nosebleeds after eating it a few times.
Pei Yi nodded thoughtfully. Interstellar also has medicinal materials and nutritional supplements, but they are all refined with high technology and are not brewed in jars like in the movies.
The next day, he came home from work and brought a plant encyclopedia for Yu Jing to find inspiration.
Yu Jing happily accepted, threw herself into his arms, kissed him, and jumped into the study. When she came out at night, she found that she could drink the pork rib soup without changing her expression even if there were two slices of ginseng in it.
After the actors became familiar with the script, Yu Jing announced that they could join the crew for filming.
The protagonist is Wei Ran. Although he is very young, with the superb skills of the makeup artist, he has transformed into a childlike and gray-haired doctor.
There was a bit of an accident while filming the treatment footage.
The man playing the role of the patient hugged the pillow and screamed heartbreakingly: "Don't come over!"
The brutal screams were comparable to those at a pig slaughtering scene. They shook everyone's bodies and caused veins to burst out of Yu Jing's forehead.
"Click!" The young director put down the speaker angrily.
Yu Jing's expression was horrifying. She stared intently at the trembling actor. She took out the suona from her waist and warned in a sinister tone: "You'd better have a reasonable explanation."
The actor pointed to the silver needle in Wei Ran's hand and explained in a toneless voice: "Director, I'm afraid."
Although he had seen this scene in countless movies and TV dramas and read the script, he was still scared when he experienced it himself.
Seeing Yu Jing's unhappy expression, Wei Ran interrupted for the sake of safety in the subsequent shooting: "Have you never had an injection?"
Other actors pointed at the man and whispered.
"His name is Lei Lei, right? I remember that when he was filming on location, he fell from a tall building and broke both of his legs."
"Yes, yes, I also remember that the director praised him in an interview for publicity."
Yu Jing listened to the actors' conversation, clapped her palms with the suona, frowned and warned him: "I have two broken legs but my expression remains unchanged. I only received two needles. There is nothing to be afraid of."
Or is he deliberately causing trouble?
The young director looked at the man suspiciously with a heavy gaze, and only withdrew his suspicion when he saw that his face turned pale with fright.
Lei Lei didn't dare to quarrel with Yu Jing, so he turned around and shouted to the others: "Nonsense! It's not scary to have my arms and legs broken, but that doesn't mean I'm not afraid of the dentist!"
If your leg is broken, just go to the medical warehouse. The dentist is your lifelong enemy, and now there is another Chinese medicine doctor!
As soon as these words came out, the crew fell into dead silence.
I don't know who it was who said weakly: "It seems... makes sense."
Yu Jing was speechless. She didn't expect Lei Lei to compare Chinese medicine to dentistry.
If you are afraid of dentists, no, if you are afraid of Chinese medicine, you still want to take pictures.
"Continue, otherwise I will replace you." The young director was very ruthless.
Lei Lei had no choice but to lie back with tears in his eyes and choked with sobs: "My ancestors are so terrible."
The holographic crew can complete all filming without affecting the real body. Some directors who strive for excellence will not even use borrowed positions when shooting murder scenes, and will actually 'kill' the actors.
Yu Jing would not do this, but...
In front of the antique medicine hall, several jars were churning. Just now, the actor playing the apprentice cut up a bunch of medicinal ingredients and threw them in. The breeze blew slowly through the set, bringing with it a terrible smell.
Several actors covered their noses and ran away, looking at Lei Lei sympathetically, thinking that it was a good thing they didn't have to drink.
The other sick characters looked ashen on the medicine jars and regretted joining Yu Jing's crew for the first time.
This stuff will kill you if you drink it.
Seven or eight actors gathered together and hugged each other in sympathy.
The shooting of the scene just now has ended, and the silver needle has been pulled out. Lei Lei rolled and crawled out of the medicine hall and came to the place where the actors were gathering, shivering.
"How do you feel? Does it hurt?" Someone asked him tremblingly. She was a little timid playing the role of a sick pregnant woman.
Lei Lei touched his chest and shook his head hesitantly. He was shaking like a sieve out of pure fear.
An old man slowly walked up to them with his hands behind his back and educated them earnestly: "Young people, the needle is as thin as a hair. You don't feel it when it sticks to your body. Don't scare yourself."
Several patient actors looked over and found that they were unfamiliar faces they had never seen before.
Guessing that it must be a part-timer, several people felt very unhappy.
How could this old man dare to educate them?
Lei Lei stared at him quietly, feeling that this old man looked familiar: "That's easy to say. If you have the ability, go and give it a try."
Chen Wende's nostrils turned upward: "Yes, as long as you tell the director."
Lei Lei was quiet.
He didn't dare. Even though he was more than fifty years older than Yu Jing, the two of them faced each other and still didn't dare to breathe.
"There are also those jars of medicine. Although they smell a bit unpleasant, it is much stronger than the smell of rotten garbage. There is no need to look like you are drinking poison." Chen Wende educated them earnestly. He felt a little sorry for Yu Jing after he drank the medicine three times just now.
One of the girls rolled her eyes and ran away quietly.
Chen Wende shook his head and prepared to leave. It was time for him to shoot soon, and the holographic cabin would keep recording his mental fluctuations.
"Grandpa, do you want a drink of water?" The girl asked him with a smile, holding a dark pottery bowl in her hand, unable to see the liquid inside clearly.
Chen Wende thought it was the girl who wanted to apologize and was embarrassed to say it. She didn't want to embarrass anyone, so she simply took it and drank it in one gulp.
"puff--"
A spectacular black fountain appeared in the sky.
The old man coughed desperately, feeling a burning heat flowing down his throat and into his stomach.
"belch--"
He burped, and an indescribable smell burst through his nose from his stomach, making him gag.
The next second, there was an endless bitterness in the mouth, as if ten pounds of coptis had been knocked down, taking away all the sense of taste.
The tongue is numb.
Chen Wende wiped the black concoction on his chin and stared at the girl expressionlessly.
The girl put her hands on her hips and said proudly: "My back hurts when I stand and talk. Grandpa, take a sip yourself. How do you feel?"
Chen Wende: "..."
I feel like I want to beat you to death, and then beat the little bastard Yu Jing to death.
I have never seen anything so anti-human.
After the filming was over, seeing Chen Wende's expression of bitterness and hatred, Yu Jing curiously went over to gossip: "Did you have a conflict with someone?"
"Haha." The old man opened his mouth and said two words to him.
Yu Jing covered her nose and took two steps back, looking at him in horror: "Professor, do you like to drink medicine for fun?"
Chen Wende: "..."
Or give it a beating.
…
Chen Wende crawled out of the holographic cabin exhausted both physically and mentally. If he had the data on mental fluctuations, he would have entered the laboratory for research without saying a word.
I don't want to move at all today.
He smacked his lips, as if the terrible taste still lingered in his mouth.
He touched the top of his head, which was getting thinner and thinner, with lingering fear:
"Terrible."
At this time, the light brain suddenly rang.
Chen Wende connected to the video, and Xing Zhengtian touched his chin and looked at him. Seeing that his face was full of fatigue, he suddenly became energetic.
"Whatever you want to do, just say it. Don't hesitate." Chen Wende got himself a large glass of water and drank it hard, as if this could wash away the remaining feelings.
Xing Zhengtian was very surprised: "Old Chen, you are very grumpy today. Did you get scolded by the young director? He has always been merciless. Don't forget to take it from your heart."
When this was mentioned, Chen Wende became angry. The bastard director led a group of bastard actors!
"I didn't get scolded. I'll just hang up if it's okay."
"No, I just want to ask you if you have nightmares?" He didn't even hide the gloating in his words.
Chen Wende looked at him with disdain. As a friend for many years, Xing Zhengtian instantly understood the meaning of his expression.
He threw himself in front of the screen and roared angrily: "I endured the humiliation for Donghua. At least I can gain something from the dream."
Chen Wende waved his hands tiredly: "Dreams are not important. I am a biologist, not a student of history."
He just wanted to record his mental fluctuations and didn't care what was in the dream.
