The investment circle's understanding of "the child" is not the same——
Some say "the child" refers to this drama, they want to invest in nurturing it with their own hands;
Some say it's a secret phrase between the two big shots, indicating that they are optimistic about this project.
Whatever they say, nothing derogatory can be seen from the word "child", so many people also ignore those online rumors and scramble to invest in the drama.
Shen's Father even called Shen Qingqing about it:
"I've invested the money, isn't that sincere enough? Are you happy now? If you're happy then come back!"
Shen Qingqing had also seen the news, unhurriedly said to her father:
"I'm not done playing yet, I'll be back in a few days...Dad, I just saw a..."
"Then go ahead and play, don't come back."
Beep beep beep——
"North Shen" was indeed Shen Qingqing's dad, he invested 5 million to please his daughter, and "South Tang"...
When Qin Wei had free time, she took out her phone and opened the 7-person group [Neighborhood Family] in Director Jiang's community, and video called Aunt Tang alone.
Aunt Tang answered the video and saw it was Qin Wei, so she knew what it was about without even asking, and said directly:
"Ah, about that investment, don't feel bad, at my age I just want to hear the sound of money splashing down the drain, you just focus on shooting your scenes, don't worry about things you can't control, come back and do flower arrangements when you're free."
Qin Wei hung up the video and silently marveled, "South Tang" turned out to be by my side...
The funding problem was solved, in summary it was being kind to others and gaining help from noble people.
Luck is also part of one's ability.
Following that, the crew announced another piece of good news——
"Actor Shen Kai will play Da Zhe, he will join the crew in the next few days!!"
The entire crew cheered, with only Qin Wei and Shen Qingqing screaming!
Shen Qingqing: "Ah! It's Brother Kai! It's Brother Kai I'm going crazy!! Good thing I didn't leave!! Ah ah ah ah!!!"
Qin Wei: "Ah! It's Shen Kai! It's Shen Kai I'm going crazy! How am I still here!! Ah ah ah ah!!!"
That night neither of them got any sleep.
...
The next morning they were shooting a scene of going hunting, Qiao Sixiao didn't have a schedule in the morning so she came over to join in the fun, first chatting with the director, then taking her breakfast over to Qin Wei.
Qin Wei was sitting there looking over the script, Qiao Sixiao sat down next to her, twisting open a thermos and pouring half a cup of snow pear soup without rock sugar and glanced at her:
"Shen Kai is coming, so excited?"
Qin Wei didn't say anything, removing the tissue from her nose which was full of blood.
The grasslands here were a bit dry for her, the first couple days her throat hurt, and since then she would get nosebleeds from time to time.
"It's from getting too hot."
Qin Wei took another tissue from Li Liang and continued holding it to her nose, originally wanting to wad it up and stick it in her nose, but Li Liang wouldn't let her, saying it wouldn't look good on camera, so Qin Wei gave in to his nagging and just pressed on it.
"Drink it, you want me to keep holding it up for you?"
Qiao Sixiao was a bit impatient and had her take the cup, but she didn't want to drink it.
"You didn't even put sugar in this, I really can't drink it."
She had also drank it yesterday, cooked by Qiao Sixiao herself, who said it was snow pear soup with rock sugar, but in reality there was no sugar, she said it was to clear away heat and moisten the lungs, but Qin Wei took one sip and felt like it took half her life away.
She had been coerced into drinking a whole cup just like that, yelling and screaming.
Who knew there would be more today.
Qiao Sixiao's voice was cold as ice, with some oppressive force: "Drink it."
Qin Wei reluctantly took the cup, looking at the porridge-like soup, and asked her:
"Do you have to make someone the sacrifice of your cooking skills? Do your cooking skills need a sacrifice to level up?"
Another bitter day...
...
The crew was just about ready, Li Liang saw her nosebleed had stopped, and called Little Yan over to touch up her makeup.
Director Jiang came over and said to her:
"We'll shoot the scene of you riding and shooting arrows now, Shen Lin told me you've been practicing these past few days, I just want to confirm with you, are you confident you can do it?"
"No problem."
Qin Wei took the bow handed over by an assistant, holding the reins as she stood by the horse.
Director Jiang went back to his spot, sitting in front of the monitor, Qiao Sixiao also sat in front of the monitor, paying attention to Qin Wei's performance in this scene.
Qin Wei was seen flipping onto the horse, riding forward, and as the horse galloped faster and faster, she took a feathered arrow from the quiver, releasing the reins with both hands, and drew the bow to shoot an arrow.
She looked natural, her movements smooth and standard. With one hand pulling the bowstring taut then releasing, the feathered arrow flew out, the tribesmen riding behind her on horseback clapped and cheered:
"The princess hit it! Luo Yang's first accomplishment!!"
Luo Yang reined in her horse, showing a proud expression amidst everyone's praise.
Seeing that proud yet somewhat coy expression, whoever saw it couldn't help smiling.
Director Jiang restrained his smile:
"Cut! Passed! Change the angle and go again!"
They adjusted the equipment and touched up makeup, then shot it a few more times before taking a break.
Qin Wei had been under the sun shooting all morning, and just wanted a cold Coke when she dismounted.
"Li Liang, I want to drink..."
Qiao Sixiao handed one over at just the right time.
Porridge.
Qin Wei smacked her lips:
"I'm not that thirsty..."
Qiao Sixiao didn't force her this time, having an assistant hold the thermos while she reached to take Qin Wei's bow and fiddle with it.
She seemed quite interested in it.
"Here, this is for you."
Qin Wei took off the thumb ring and put it on Qiao Sixiao's hand, then turned and took a feathered arrow from the quiver on the horse's back, nocking it on the bowstring,
"Hook the bowstring with your thumb, press down on your thumb with your index finger, control the arrow shaft with your index finger, pull back, straighten your arm, aim."
Qin Wei held the bow with one hand together with her, and with the other hand helped adjust her drawing motion, then aimed forward. The people standing around took the initiative to move aside, afraid of accidental injury.
"Right hand, release."
The feathered arrow was loosed!
Falling just over ten centimeters in front of them into the grass.
Everyone: "......"
Qiao Sixiao: "......"
Qin Wei: "The main problem is you're clumsy, I taught you hand-in-hand and you still can't learn it well."
Qiao Sixiao shot her a fierce look.
"Let me demonstrate for you."
Qin Wei took the bow back, and drew and shot an arrow alone.
Her movements were fine, her aim was fine...
Releasing her hand, shooting!
......
"Brother Kai is here!"
Everyone turned to look, and saw a tall figure of a man walking over.
The man wore a dark gray round-necked robe, boots, belts, bracers, and held a traditional bow crafted with meticulous workmanship.
"Brother Kai, thanks for the hard work."
Staff came over to take the props from him and pulled over a chair for him to sit and rest.
But Shen Kai paid them no mind, his gaze falling on the young woman not far away who was drawing a bow to shoot an arrow.
Her movements were standard. As her right hand released the bowstring, the feathered arrow flew out, before falling in front of her.
Qin Wei: "......"
Qiao Sixiao: "......"
Qin Wei muttered:
"Oh, something's wrong with the bow..."
Qiao Sixiao stood on the side with arms crossed watching the spectacle, and mocking her in a sarcastic tone:
"Oh right, right, right, something's wrong with the bow, something's wrong with me, it's just you who has no problems, you're the best, the rest of us don't work, just you do, you're the most capable!"
Qin Wei cockily put her hands on her hips:
"I'm the best, I'm the best!"
Turning her head, Qin Wei saw Shen Kai, and Shen Kai was also looking at her.
Only then did she realize the other party had witnessed her embarrassing display of archery from start to finish.
Not only that, she suddenly felt a heat in her nasal cavity, and her nose started bleeding again.
