This situation continued for three or four days in a row. The entire crew worked together and rushed to finish filming the scenes here, which was more than a week behind schedule.

Seeing Director Tan's increasingly thinning hair and darker circles under his eyes, it seemed he hadn't had a proper rest lately. Seeing this, Su Muqing wanted to tell him several times not to rush things, and that if things got really bad, Daji Dafa could add more investment. But every time she was about to say it, she would unconsciously hear her older brother's voice constantly emphasizing cost control, and she would shut her mouth awkwardly.

Finally, on a sunny afternoon, the entire crew set off from the village to the next filming location.

After Xiao hope helped them tidy up the room, Su Muqing suddenly lay down on the bed and sighed comfortably, "This accommodation has finally been upgraded."

Xiao hope couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sister Mu Qing, what you're saying sounds just like refugees entering the city."

Su Muqing wasn't annoyed, she just stretched and said, "That's right, you've visibly lost weight these past two days."

Just then, her phone rang abruptly. Su Muqing glanced at the screen and saw that it was Su Muxuan calling. Helplessly, she sat up to answer.

"Muqing, has the new hotel arrived?" Su Muxuan's voice came from the other end of the phone. Although his tone was calm, Su Muqing could still hear the concern in it.

"It's here, it's here."

"Take a picture and show it to me."

"You don't believe me when I say that?" Su Muqing said, her voice unconsciously carrying a hint of coquetry and dissatisfaction.

Su Muxuan paused for a moment, then snorted: "I saw where you stayed last time. You promise this time it won't be any worse. Let me see."

Su Muqing quickly looked around and touched her nose: "Hey bro, what I said wasn't bad, I meant compared to last time. I don't know what your standard is?"

Su Muxuan: ......

"Okay, okay, I'll send it to you," Su Muqing said, but still not entirely at ease, she added a word of caution: "This is already the best hotel in town. Filming a movie requires enduring some hardship."

"You take the picture first," Su Muxuan said in a flat tone.

Su Muqing had no choice but to take a picture of the entire room and send it over. After looking at the photo, Su Muxuan was slightly more satisfied: "Hmm, it's barely acceptable. Take good care of yourself while you're out there, and be sure to stay safe."

Su Muqing smiled and replied, "I know, brother. Don't worry about me so much. Everyone in the crew here will take care of each other."

"As long as you know what's going on."

After hanging up the phone, Su Muqing stuck out her tongue at Shi Wanmeng: "My brother always makes a fuss over nothing."

Shi Wanmeng smiled but didn't say anything.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door. Xiao hope opened the door and found the production assistant had brought the shooting schedule for tomorrow.

Shi Wanmeng took the document and looked at it carefully. She realized that her scenes for tomorrow were quite demanding, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The location had changed, and the two of them didn't have many scenes together anymore; they wouldn't be filming together starting tomorrow.

Seeing Shi Wanmeng's expression, Su Muqing leaned over to look at the shooting schedule and comforted her, "It's okay, even though we're shooting separately, everything will definitely go smoothly."

Shi Wanmeng nodded: "Let's get some rest early today."

That night, Su Muqing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She was both nervous and excited about tomorrow's filming. In her drowsy state, she drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, after having breakfast together, the two went to their respective filming locations.

The other actors arrived one after another, and Director Tan, full of energy, held a megaphone and directed the set setup.

After Shi Wanmeng finished her makeup, the lighting on set hadn't met the director's requirements, so she could only sit in the makeup truck and wait. She held the script and memorized her lines over and over, imagining how she would perform later.

Meanwhile, Su Muqing was also preparing. The lighting technician adjusted the lights, and the props team confirmed everything was in order. Su Muqing took a deep breath, and as soon as the director yelled "Action!", she quickly got into character. The filming had allowed her to truly immerse herself in the character, and every glance and movement was perfectly executed.

At the same moment, filming officially began on the set where Shi Wanmeng was located.

The scene to be filmed is a large-scale ensemble piece, in which the female lead, played by Shi Wanmeng, emerges alone from the deep mountains and enters a complex and unknown world, struggling to live in a very difficult environment.

Shi Wanmeng quickly adjusted her state and devoted herself wholeheartedly to the role. She seemed to transform into the young woman created by the screenwriter, her face full of innocence, but her eyes full of longing for the future.

However, because the scene involved a large number of extras with varying movements, the entire scene descended into chaos and disorder.

Director Tan stood off-set, his brow furrowing deeper and deeper as he stared intently at the monitor screen.

After several takes, he kept shaking his head and finally couldn't help but shout, "Cut! Let's do it again!" In this way, the scene was filmed repeatedly, but it still failed to satisfy Director Tan.

Finally, Director Tan had to personally go among the actors and patiently explain the movement routes and performance points of each character in detail. After much effort, the scene was finally barely passed.

Looking up at the sky, Director Tan picked up his megaphone again: "Everyone is in good shape so far. Let's keep up the good work and try to shoot another scene this morning!"

The staff on site quickly sprang into action, and the other actors were also encouraged, putting in their best effort.

Xiao hope quickly handed her a glass of water, while the makeup artist from the crew rushed to her side like a gust of wind, trying to touch up her makeup as fast as she could.

After instructing the staff on camera placement, Director Tan slowly walked towards Shi Wanmeng and patiently began explaining the details of her character's movement in the next scene.

At noon, the crew came to deliver boxed lunches. Director Tan looked at the monitor and nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, that's it for the morning's scenes. Everyone, please have your lunch!"

The filming for Su Muqing went smoothly this morning, and they completed several scenes in one morning.

With an extra assistant, Xiao hope's burden was greatly reduced. Qi Ming bought them lunch separately and waited for them near the film set in his RV.

During lunch, Su Muqing and Shi Wanmeng finally ran into each other again. When they talked about the morning's filming, Shi Wanmeng couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "What's scary is that I still have group scenes this afternoon."

Su Muqing patted her shoulder sympathetically: "Keep going, you can do it."

The afternoon sun was scorching. Su Muqing returned to her filming location. The afternoon's scenes were relatively easy, mostly single close-up shots. She quickly immersed herself in them and successfully completed several takes.

The scenes for Shi Wanmeng in the afternoon were still quite challenging, but with Director Tan's guidance in the morning, things improved considerably.

Based on the experience from the morning, she proactively communicated with the extras before filming began, allowing everyone to familiarize themselves with each other's positions. This time, the filming went surprisingly smoothly, and after three takes, Director Tan happily shouted "Cut!"
