Chapter 1059: First Time Seeing Qinghuan Filming
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This was the first time Jian Ai and Yan Tian had come to a professional film base. Zhongshan Film City was the largest film base in the north of China. Basically, all the television dramas and movies that started filming in the north would choose this location to film first. Therefore, there would be media reporters lying in ambush here all year round because the probability of bumping into celebrities was extremely high.
There were a few plastic sheds outside the entrance of the film base. It was already late autumn, and the temperature in the north was almost negative. However, these plastic sheds were filled with people. There were even many people outside the sheds, wrapped in coats and looking around.
When Chen Jin saw Jian Ai looking over curiously, he helplessly explained, “This is a temporary rest area for extras. Those who don’t take on any roles can’t enter the film base. If the production team needs them, a staff member will come and choose them.”
“Are they going to wait here like this?” Jian Ai asked curiously.
Chen Jin nodded. “All extras wait for scenes like this. There are also leaders among the extras. There are at least dozens of extras under each leader. The leader is in charge of doing things for the various production teams and helps the extras under them. They can get a few roles on a lucky day. For example, those with lines, those who jump into the water, and those who act as corpses, can earn more money. Those who act as an ordinary human in the background can earn thirty to fifty yuan in a scene. It’s quite tough for them.”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but nod with a sigh. When she turned around, she realized that there were men, women, and children among these extras. Some of them had white hair, and the youngest looked younger than her.
After entering the film base, there was an ancient city on the left. It was obvious that this was a scene used for ancient dramas.
On her right was the style of the last years of the Qing Dynasty. However, the distance between the scenes was very far, and the area of each scene was very large. Jian Ai felt that this film base was like a kaleidoscope. It was as if she had transmigrated.
After following Chen Jin for a long time, they arrived at the production team of “Interweaving Night.” The staff was busy filming Qinghuan and Jian Yiyi’s scenes.
The two of them sat on a pile of grains in the yard. At this moment, Ye Zheng had already killed her stepfather in the drama. Luo Yun, who did not know the truth, was comforting Ye Zheng, who had lost her stepfather.
“Hey, I remember this.” Yan Tian pulled Jian Ai’s sleeve excitedly.
Chen Jin quickly made a silencing gesture, scaring Yan Tian so much that he quickly shut his mouth.
There were eight receivers at the scene. If the surrounding people’s voices were slightly louder, they would be captured in them.
Chen Jin gestured for the two of them to follow him.
In the empty space behind the production team, Xia Qinghuan’s nanny van was parked. Only then did Chen Jin say, “Put your things in the car first. Qinghuan still has two sets of scenes to film. I’ll take you to watch her film later, but don’t speak loudly.”
Yan Tian scratched his head in embarrassment. “Got it.”
When they returned to the production team, Chen Jin arranged for Jian Ai and Yan Tian to sit on the chairs in Qinghuan’s resting area. Then, they looked at Qinghuan, who was filming, in surprise.
This was the first time Jian Ai had seen Qinghuan in action. She was dressed like a countryside girl from the fifties and sixties. She was lively and cold, which matched Ye Zheng’s temperament.
“Jian Ai, look. It’s Chu Lingfeng!” Yan Tian suddenly approached Jian Ai. Although he lowered his voice, he couldn’t control the excitement in his tone.
Jian Ai looked over and saw a slightly round man sitting on the side of the court not far away.
