Chapter 83 A Girl's Private Affairs (Please Read On)
"The Night of the Comet" is a science fiction suspense film.
The story revolves around four men and four women having dinner together late at night when Comet Miller approaches Earth, bridging the gap between parallel worlds.
In the story, the scattered main characters traverse the dark area and enter other parallel universes.
During this process, they gradually discovered that their familiar companions had become "strange beings" from other times and spaces.
Driven by desire and fear, some people want to kill all their "selves" in other parallel universes to ensure their safety;
Some people just want to stay where they are and wait until the comet leaves;
Some people, on the other hand, want to return to their original time and space.
What was originally an ordinary gathering of friends turned into a dark jungle world amidst the chaos.
In order to find a timeline where her boyfriend hadn't betrayed her, the female protagonist killed her "self" from that timeline, hoping to live the life she wanted by taking over his identity.
On the set of "iPartment".
After listening to Lin An's explanation of the script, everyone looked astonished.
-
Even the usually composed Qiao Zhenyu looked at Lin An with a complicated expression.
"My goodness, what kind of story is this? It sounds so creepy."
Shen Teng gasped, turned to Deng Chao, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and exclaimed in terror, "Old Deng! Are you still Old Deng? Tell me, when and from which world did you travel here?!"
Deng Chao's head swayed back and forth as he was shaken, and he rolled his eyes, then said in a sinister tone, "Since you've found out..."
"7
He gripped Shen Teng's shoulders, brought his face close, and lowered his voice: "Actually... I came from another world, specifically to kill you!"
Shen Teng let out a strange cry, crossed her arms, and said, "I knew you'd been plotting against me all along! Tell me, are you just jealous of my beauty?!"
The people around burst into laughter.
Deng Chao shoved him away, laughing and scolding, "Have you no shame? Could you be any more narcissistic?"
Lin Cong, holding a thermos, watched the two of them clown around with a blank expression.
Once the laughter and chatter subsided, she turned to Lin An, her tone regaining the composure expected of a director: "The story sounds good, and it has some interesting points, but how do you intend to portray the character being replaced?"
Lin An was prepared for this. "As the plot unfolds, the characters' conditions will be constantly updated. Some people will have injuries to their foreheads, some will lose their rings, some will repeat lines they have already said, and the furnishings in the room will also undergo subtle changes."
Lin Cong nodded thoughtfully.
Her eyes became complicated: "This kind of movie pays great attention to the polishing of details. If there is any mistake in the shot or the editing rhythm is wrong, the whole movie will fall apart."
Lin An nodded and said, "I know, that's why we need to record a lot of footage to facilitate later editing."
Lin Cong stopped talking after hearing this.
Judging from the conversation just now, it's clear that someone had already planned ahead. Continuing to talk would only disrupt the creative process, and besides, everyone starts as a newbie and learns by trial and error.
Where is Gao Yuanyuan?
Lin Congdao said, "She should still be on Zhang Guoli's film set, right?"
"If we don't talk about this, we can still be friends..." Lin An awkwardly tugged at the corner of his mouth: "She said she had personal matters to attend to and couldn't answer."
A moment of silence fell over the corner of the set.
Deng Chao and Shen Teng turned their heads at the same time, their shoulders shaking wildly, their faces turning red from holding their breath.
Qiao Zhenyu also lowered his head silently, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
Pshaw, what's so funny?
"If you call them, they might not even answer..." Lin An muttered to himself, remaining outwardly calm, but inwardly he began to consider backup options.
To be honest, I don't really think much of the students at Beijing Film Academy.
I'm not familiar with the Shanghai Theatre Academy, so it would be quite awkward to go there without permission.
The Central Academy of Drama has quite a few suitable candidates.
However, if he were to be selected as an actor from the Central Academy of Drama, he suspected that he might be kicked out of the Beijing Film Academy by Mr. Zhang Hua for the fabricated charge of "stepping into the school gate with his left foot first".
After much thought, I could only choose Jiang Qinqin.
A graduate of the Beijing Film Academy, she has already acted in many TV series, so her acting skills should be fine, and she's also quite good-looking.
Most importantly, he had the other party's contact information in his phone, which he had saved at the last "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" seminar.
He even chatted with the other person briefly during the Chinese New Year.
Asking her to act in a movie as a junior shouldn't be a problem, right?
Just as Lin An was secretly calculating, Chen Shu couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you ask what it was about?"
"Huh?" Lin An paused for a moment, realizing she was asking about Gao Yuanyuan, and shook her head: "No. She already said it's a private matter, how could I ask?"
Chen Shu looked at him speechlessly.
Gao Lu and Dong Xuan exchanged a glance, then looked at the same person with complicated expressions.
Lin An felt a little uneasy under their gazes and instinctively shrank back in his chair: "Why are you all staring at me like that?"
Chen Shu pondered for a few seconds, then said with a strange expression, "Haven't you noticed that Yuanyuan treats you, well, a little differently than she treats others?"
Lin An blinked, and subconsciously asked, "You mean she likes me?"
Cough! Cough cough!
Lin Conggang had just picked up his cup when he heard this and choked on it, coughing violently while bent over.
Dong Xuan hurriedly reached out to pat her back, her own shoulders shaking as well, unsure whether from laughing or choking.
Gao Lu couldn't help but raise her hand to her forehead, thinking to herself, "Who is this person? Could they be any more direct?"
Shouldn't we be a little more reserved and romantic at times like this?
Chen Shu was caught off guard by Lin An's direct question. After a while, she finally composed herself and said, "I didn't say that. I just wanted to remind you that girls usually don't talk about private matters with strangers."
But I'm not a stranger... Lin An muttered to himself, looking at Deng Chao and the others: "Is that so?"
Deng Chao and Shen Teng shook their heads blankly, looking completely bewildered.
Qiao Zhenyu shrugged and said, "I'm not a girl, I don't know."
Lin An nodded slightly, feeling much better.
Chen Shu's lips twitched, and she closed her eyes, giving up the struggle.
These people deserve to be single!
After discussing the script, Lin Cong put his thermos on the coffee table and clapped his hands.
"Alright, that's the end of the story. Time to get back to work."
She waved to Deng Chao, Shen Teng, Qiao Zhenyu, and the others, signaling them to come over.
The group was still immersed in the eerie atmosphere of "parallel world murder and replacement" when Lin Cong's shout brought them back to reality, and they all looked a little dazed.
"The custom-made furniture hasn't arrived yet, so filming at the apartment can't continue for the time being."
Lin Cong opened the storyboard and tapped a page with his finger. "But the bar set is almost finished. We'll officially start filming tomorrow. You guys, go over the blocking tonight."
None of them had any objections.
Compared to movies whose success is uncertain, they clearly value the already hugely popular "iPartment" more.
Chen Shu also took out the script from her bag and began to study it carefully.
Lin An leaned against the wall for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing on set that required his intervention, he took out his phone from his pocket and walked out of the film set.
As he walked, he took out his phone, scrolled through his contacts, found Jiang Qinqin's number, and was about to press the call button when he remembered Chen Shu's words.
"well.....
""
Lin An sighed, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
He's had relationships before, so he knows what Chen Shu really wants to say.
A month ago, he might have been wearing a "sexual attraction" badge and eagerly running over to poach someone's girlfriend.
But he's been through so much lately that he just wants to make a movie peacefully and doesn't want to cause any trouble.
Lin An remained silent for a few seconds before sending Gao Yuanyuan a short message.
I didn't expect to receive a reply so quickly:
My mother's asthma has flared up, and I need to go home to take care of her.
Lin An was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched his clothes.
At this moment, the inside of the cotton-padded jacket was attached to Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket.
Besides the props, the bag also contained a bottle almost full of [panacea].
