Huayu Chunqiu, starting from being adopted by a fairy mother

Chapter 138 Interest
Props are not a joke. Many safety accidents on film crews are related to props.

It's a bit ridiculous for a fifteen-year-old girl to be a prop master.

At that time, Zhou Xiaowen arranged Jing Tian to be a prop after careful consideration.

Lighting, photography, sound recording, makeup, etc. require very high technical skills and Jing Tian cannot do them.

After much thought, I decided to just use it as a prop and not assign it any work.

If this girl wasn't so dedicated, it wouldn't be a big problem. But she couldn't sit still and didn't want to just be a figurehead, she always wanted to find work to do.

"Cut! Take a break for ten minutes. You have to deal with the white ape by yourself." Zhou Xiaowen had a gloomy face and secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Jingtian, do we have a grudge against each other?" Liu Jing was very resentful.

"No, you are my brother Liu Jing, and I treat you very well." Jing Tian was puzzled.

The treasured sword was also newly collected. When her assistant was custom-making props, Jing Tian took a fancy to a sword and kept it as a treasure.

She thought Sissi’s swordsmanship was very cool, and a treasured sword was worthy of it.

"Oh..." Liu Jing sighed.

Xixi looked leisurely, skillfully wielding the sword, and lightly slashed at Liu Jing, "Maybe Tiantian wants to use my hand to turn you into a real ape eunuch."

Liu Jing was stunned and looked at Xixi in disbelief. How could you say such a thing?

Xixi regretted what she said as soon as she finished speaking. Her little face turned red, she spat lightly, turned around and ran away.

"Brother Liu Jing, I absolutely do not mean to make you a eunuch, I swear." Jing Tian raised his hand and quickly expressed his position.

Liu Jing was tired. Didn't you not understand the Spring and Autumn Period and the Zhou Dynasty? How do you know what eunuchs and father-in-law are now?

"Brother Liu Jing, did I do something wrong this time?" Jing Tian just doesn't think much, he is not an idiot.

From the director's attitude, Liu Jing's hesitation, and other people's words, she already realized that she had made a principled mistake this time.

"Props should not be taken lightly. If you want to be an excellent prop master, you must..."

"I don't want to be a prop master, I just want to stay in the crew. It's more interesting here than school. I don't want to dance, and I don't want to work in the dance industry in the future. That kind of life is too boring and tedious. If I go on like this, if I were a flower, I would wither and die sooner or later." Jing Tian's cheerful face showed a hint of sadness.

"Who says you have to go dancing after graduating from Beijing Dance Academy? Li Xiaoran, Wang Yan and others became actors," Liu Jing comforted.

"He is from Beijing Dance Academy, and I am from the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy." Jing Tian snorted. One is a technical secondary school, and the other is a university. How can they be the same?

"Yes, you are still in the affiliated high school. When you graduate, if you don't like dancing, you don't have to go to Beijing Dance Academy. If you want to act, you can apply for Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, Shanghai Theatre Academy, etc." Liu Jing gave advice and we can't just sit back and watch.

"Woo woo, it will take me another three years to graduate." Jing Tian looked pitiful.

"If you don't study hard, you won't be able to get into those schools after graduation three years later," Liu Jing warned.

"You're right. I will resign from the director immediately and go back to school tomorrow." Jing Tian nodded heavily.

"it is good!"

Jing Tian covered his chest, feeling a prick in his heart, and looked at Liu Jing resentfully, "Brother Liu Jing, is your answer so straightforward?"

"Jingtian, don't sleep too much when you go back to school, study hard. After you graduate, I will take you to film a movie. We will film whatever you want." Liu Jing promised.

Jing Tian's resentful eyes suddenly burst into light, "Make a pinky promise, if you say something, you are not a puppy."

It wasn't that she was reluctant to leave the group, but the appearance of Liu Jing brought her into another world.

She didn't want to go back to school and continue her monotonous dancing. She longed for some changes in her life.

In her opinion, Liu Jing is the variable in her life.

How childish!
Liu Jing didn't want to make a pinky promise, but seeing Jing Tian's expectant look, he couldn't help but stretch out his monkey paw.

"We make a promise and never change it for a hundred years. Yeah..." Jing Tian skipped away. She was going to resign to the director, and suddenly she felt that dancing didn't seem so boring.

Liu Jing just breathed a sigh of relief after sending Jing Tian away, when Xixi came over with a new prop sword.

"Is this a real thing?" Liu Jing joked.

"I really hope so." Sissi snorted and mocked, "I used to think you were good at making big sisters happy, but now it seems you're better at making little girls happy."

"No matter how old a woman is, she is still a woman. An older sister is harder to please than a little girl. If you can please the older sister, then the little girl will be easy to please," Liu Jing said proudly.

"Oh, we have summed up the experience." Xixi said lightly.

"Of course." For some reason, Liu Jing suddenly felt guilty. He inexplicably sensed a murderous intent.

"Ready..." the director shouted.

As the filming continued, Sissi was like a chicken with its blood pumped up, and her attack became particularly fierce.

"Eunuch Ape, Eunuch Ape..."

Liu Jing, under great pressure, jumped a few times on the tree and disappeared from the camera.

This scene was shot for more than ten times, and it was not until sunset that the director gave the go-ahead.

We have no choice but to let him go because it’s time to get off work.

If he continued filming, Liu Jing felt like he was going to faint.

Wearing this equipment is like carrying a mountain on your back. Not only does it consume your physical strength, but it also consumes a lot of water.

It is not easy to put it on once, and he dare not drink too much water because it is too troublesome to go to the toilet.

The director did have a good suggestion: just drink the water and pee inside it, since you are the only one wearing it anyway.

How could Liu Jing be willing to do that? Of course he chose to save face and suffer in life.

Gao Yuanyuan was filming next door. She rushed over after getting off work.

"Xixi, your swordsmanship is so powerful. When can I be like you?" Gao Yuanyuan admired sincerely.

She just admired and didn't feel much envy, because she knew how much effort and sweat Xixi had put in for all these.

"What's the point of training so well? It's just to strengthen your body." Xixi said this, but her expression clearly showed that she enjoyed it very much.

"Huh! What's wrong with you? The girl from Yue just tried to stop the white ape from killing Fan Li, but you seem to have a deep hatred for her." Liu Jing got off the wire and came to find fault as soon as possible. "Brother Duan Long, are you okay?" Xixi ignored Liu Jing and asked Fan Li who was standing aside.

The white ape slapped Fan Li, but the Yue girl pulled him aside and saved his life.

Xixi's hands are quite strong. The director shouted "cut" more than ten times. Duan Long was also pulled more than ten times. He was rubbing his shoulders with a look of pain on his face.

"I'm fine, it's nothing. You should just call me Old Duan, it sounds better." Duan Long smiled bitterly. The girl was small but very strong.

That fierce sword technique not only stunned Duan Long, but everyone else as well.

I didn’t feel anything when I used a bamboo pole before, but now that I’ve switched to a sword, it doesn’t feel like I’m filming a movie, it feels like I’m just fighting and killing the enemy.

Zhou Xiaowen was very disappointed that the images captured by the camera were not as shocking as in reality. He filmed several times but finally gave up.

"We can only call him Old Duan now. Last month he was called Duan Long, this month he's called Duan Yihong. Maybe even his surname will be changed next month." Zhou Xiaowen smiled, the kind of smile that shows one seeing through everything.

The young man Duan Long suddenly blushed and explained hesitantly, "I changed the name for this play. The history of the Wu-Yue hegemony is very commemorative. It pays tribute to Tao Zhugong Fan Li..."

"Then you should change your name to Duan Yili." Xixi was puzzled.

"Or call him Duan Yitao." Gao Yuanyuan smiled secretly.

"Ahem, that's what the master calculated. I'm going to go remove my makeup." Duan Long's face got even redder, his arm didn't hurt anymore, and he ran very fast.

"What a pig! She is Tao Hong." Liu Jing laughed.

"Why is it Tao Hong's Hong?" Xixi murmured, then suddenly realized and whispered, "Tsk! Secret love is really the easiest thing to do, you are the pig."

Xixi glanced at Gao Yuanyuan and curled her lips. He was remembering Tao Hong, who were you remembering?

"You must be exhausted. Mu Tou will treat you tonight." Xixi rubbed her wrists and went back to her room to remove her makeup.

"Jingtian, Jingtian, Jingtian..." Liu Jing also went back to the room to remove her makeup, and shouted at the door. She had been waiting for a long time, but the girl still didn't come to help her remove her equipment. She was not as self-conscious as she was in the past two days.

His shouts didn't attract Jing Tian, but a group of people gathered around him.

The makeup artist came out in a hurry, "Liu Jing, Jing Tian has left the group."

"Oh, that girl has left the group." The photographer shouted, full of relief.

"You look very happy." Liu Jing laughed.

"Of course he was happy. When filming the scene of the little steamed egg, Jing Tian couldn't find the camera, but she stepped on the photographer's foot very accurately. Once when filming washing silk by the river, she didn't stand properly and pushed the photographer into the river. Another time, when she was dancing with Xi Shi, her shoe flew directly onto the photographer's head." The lighting technician hurriedly explained.

"My situation is still relatively good. She wanted to try whether the light could bake paper, so she did an experiment in the warehouse. There was a pile of gunpowder right next to her, and it almost exploded," the photographer complained.

"She even put on makeup and pretended to be a ghost to scare people in the middle of the night..."

"Why are you talking so much? You want to work overtime, right?" The director saw more and more people gathering, so he yelled at them and they scattered instantly.

Liu Jing was secretly surprised that Jing Tian had accomplished so many great things in just a few days.

He asked the makeup artist, "She hasn't finished her work yet, why is she leaving the group so soon?"

"Jing Tian... Jing Tian said that she made a mistake and was kicked out from the crew by you as an example to others. Before she left, she also warned us to work hard and not neglect our duties." The makeup artist smiled bitterly. She was trained by Zhang Min and could be called a direct descendant.

"She has so many scenes. I guess I have to thank her." Liu Jing sighed.

"Let me help you take off your equipment." The makeup artist smiled. She was laughing at Jingtian's cuteness.

Liu Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, let Yuanyuan help me. I just have something to tell her."

The makeup artist and Gao Yuanyuan were also familiar with each other, after all, they were from the same company. "This outfit is hard to take off. There is a zipper here. You have to pull it up little by little..."

"Leave it to me. The last time Jingtian wore this, I was the one who took it off." Gao Yuanyuan has experience and doesn't need anyone to teach her.

With Gao Yuanyuan's help, Liu Jing went to the warehouse. Gao Yuanyuan was indeed familiar with the equipment, so Liu Jing let her do what she wanted.

"Mu Tou, someone asked Director Lai Shuiqing to write a script to take advantage of the popularity of Yi Tian. Director Lai said that he would shoot that script after finishing The Knight-Errant, and it will probably start shooting in April next year. Jingwen and I have been invited."

"What script?" Liu Jing didn't take it seriously and just asked casually. It sounded like a scam to make money.

"'The Miraculous Doctor and the Concubine' tells the story of Empress Lü and the descendants of Liu Bang. The script has been handed to me, and I made a request to the investor. If you invite Zhang Tielin, don't invite me. Jingwen also said the same thing. The investor agreed, and they want to invite you to be the martial arts director." Gao Yuanyuan explained.

"I was filming "New Police Story" at that time. Do you think I had time?" Liu Jing glared at her. The girl asked this question even though she knew the answer.

"Okay! You rejected me on this, but there is one more thing. I want you to teach me martial arts." Gao Yuanyuan was not unhappy. Instead, she blinked her eyes with a look of anticipation.

"That's your goal, right? If you didn't listen to Sissi, you would have strengthened your body."

“I just want to keep fit.”

"Swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, halberds, sticks, whips, maces, hammers, claws, crutch and meteor. Which one do you want to practice?" Liu Jing asked.

"Then I have to think about it carefully." Gao Yuanyuan thought for a while, and the more she thought about it, the more confused she became.

"Yuanyuan, what do you think of the house?" Liu Jing let Gao Yuanyuan think about it carefully. Keeping fit is a good thing and he supports it.

"I've been on the filming crew recently and haven't had time to go shopping. I asked my best friend to help me see if there are any suitable properties. I have also chosen a location, one not far from Baiyujing." Gao Yuanyuan responded.

The white jade capital in the sky has five cities on the twelfth floor. Immortals caress my head, knotting my hair and receiving immortality.

Liu Jing liked this poem very much, so he named his new residence Baiyujing.

"If you don't buy a house, I will charge you interest." Liu Jing joked.

He stretched and finally got out of the equipment.

My vest and shorts were all wet and my skin turned white.

"How much interest do you want?" Gao Yuanyuan looked at Liu Jing's muscular body and became more and more pleased.

"You will be responsible for breakfast while I'm on the crew." Liu Jing slapped Gao Yuanyuan's hand away. This was harassment.

"I'll take care of dinner first."

Dinner? Liu Jinggang wondered, Gao Yuanyuan hugged his neck and fed him, and also gave him a fish as an extra dish.

"Woo woo..." Liu Jing was shocked and opened his eyes wide. This interest...
