Chapter 110: Saving the Day

~6 min read 1,166 words

Yaya?

Qin Mu looked at her and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He knew Yaya.

She was beautiful and a very good actress, having starred in many films and dramas, and was known as one of the "Four Little Dan Actresses."

"If there's something to discuss, let's go inside."

Qin Mu invited her.

Guests had arrived; he couldn't just leave them standing outside.

The two women walked in slowly.

Looking at the clean and tidy room, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

A guy's room could be kept in such perfect order.

How self-disciplined!

"Tell me, what do you need my help with?"

After pouring them two glasses of water, Qin Mu sat to the side.

He had worked with Cheng Xiao once before, so they weren't strangers.

"It's like this..."

Yaya slowly explained the reason for her visit.

As it turned out, Yaya was filming a movie in Guishi called "A Writer's Odyssey."

Because it was a sci-fi suspense film, the most important thing was to capture that sense of suspense and horror.

However, the cinematographer on set couldn't grasp that atmospheric feel, and two shots had been filmed for an entire day without being completed.

This not only delayed the filming schedule but also wasted everyone's time.

It just so happened that Cheng Xiao went to visit the set, and Yaya told her about her troubles, so Cheng Xiao strongly recommended Brother Qin to her.

"Brother Qin, can you help us out?"

Yaya's voice was light, and her eyes were full of anticipation as she looked at Qin Mu.

"But if it's filming a movie, I'm afraid I don't have enough time."

Qin Mu said softly.

The cycle for filming a movie was at least over a month.

He didn't have the time to stay on set every day.

"That's not it."

"You only need to come and film today!"

"Because these are the most critical shots in the film, our requirements are a bit higher."

Yaya hurriedly explained.

"I see..."

After pondering for a moment, Qin Mu said, "I can go take a look, but as for whether I'll help or not, we'll see when I get there."

"Okay!"

"Thank you, Brother Qin!"

Yaya was instantly overjoyed.

"Yay, I told you Brother Qin is a very good person."

Cheng Xiao said with a smile.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll tidy up."

With a private car picking them up, the three arrived at the film set.

At the photography base in Guishi.

"The set construction is quite grand."

Looking at the layers of green screens before him, Qin Mu exclaimed.

Looking around, it was full of various props and scenes, and the green screen backdrop spanned dozens of meters.

This was clearly a big production!

"That's right."

"Because besides filming real-world scenes, there's also the filming of the 'otherworld,' so there's quite a lot of set construction."

Yaya nodded.

Soon, the three arrived at the filming location.

Before they even entered, they heard the director's loud cursing.

"What are you all doing? We spent so much money to hire you."

"Two shots, just two damn shots, we've been filming for a whole day and still haven't finished!"

"Suspense! Suspense! How many times have I said it? Can you capture the feeling of suspense?"

"Change the lens, cut the angle, can you be faster? Filming this slowly, do you think this is an old lady crossing the street?"

"Damn it!"

"Uh."

"Brother Qin, don't mind it, our Director Lu actually has a pretty good temper."

"It's just that we've had to reshoot too many times today, so he's a bit irritable."

Yaya looked embarrassed and hurriedly explained.

"It's fine."

"I can understand."

Qin Mu smiled.

Generally speaking, if everyone cooperates well, filming seven or eight shots a day is no problem.

But now, two shots had been filmed for a whole day and still weren't finished.

As a director, how could he not be irritable?

"Thank you for understanding, Brother Qin."

Yaya breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really afraid that Brother Qin would mind these things, as it had been hard enough to invite him.

The three walked in slowly.

What came into view were busy staff members running around everywhere.

In the center was a model room built to look like a library.

And the actors were standing inside, discussing the script intensely.

Qin Mu looked over.

Lei Jiayin, Guo Jinfei, Yu Hewei, Yang Mi.

And a few others he didn't recognize.

"Brother Qin, I'll take you over to meet them."

Yaya led Qin Mu toward Director Lu.

Just in time.

"Keep filming!"

"If we can't film it well this time, we're filming all night!"

Director Lu shouted.

"Lu..."

Yaya was about to call him to stop, but Qin Mu stopped her.

"It's fine, I can just watch how it's filmed."

He wanted to see the requirements for the filming.

Besides, he wanted to see just how bad the crew's cinematographer was.

Yaya looked at him in a daze, then nodded.

The three stopped not far away.

Clap!

As the clapperboard snapped.

The actors began to move.

First, an unknown young actor was sitting at the front of the library, writing something at a desk.

At the entrance, Lei Jiayin and Yang Mi were in different directions.

The lighting on the entire set dimmed.

"Is there danger?"

Lei Jiayin asked with a frown.

"He's just an ordinary person! What are you afraid of!"

"But..."

Before Lei Jiayin could finish, he saw Yang Mi pressing her body against the bookshelf, moving forward step by step.

"Damn it!"

After cursing under his breath, he had no choice but to follow.

At this moment, after the main cinematographer's lens captured their faces.

It slowly zoomed in, focusing on the back of the young actor.

Seeing this scene, Qin Mu shook his head and said slowly, "The camera movement is too fast, and the shot is too straight. It should tilt the back more, allowing more of the background to be in the frame."

Beside him, Cheng Xiao and Yaya were suddenly startled.

The two looked at each other, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.

Had he already spotted the flaws?

However, they didn't dare to ask, fearing they would disturb Qin Mu.

The filming continued.

Yang Mi and Lei Jiayin split up, moving very slowly.

Both had a cinematographer with them, carefully capturing the tension and quietness of the moment.

Soon, both reached the back of the young actor.

And he was completely unaware!

'Go!'

'Kill him!'

Eye contact, the meaning was clear.

It must be said that Lei Jiayin and Yang Mi's acting at this moment was quite good; their eyes expressed the words directly.

After a brief internal struggle, Lei Jiayin slowly pulled out a small knife.

Just as he was about to strike!

A sudden change occurred!
