Chapter 228 Whoever wants to take pictures can take pictures

Filming is actually a very tiring job. In the eyes of the audience, actors can earn money just by talking.

Actually, no. There are only two people in the camera. In fact, there may be dozens of people crowded in a small room at the scene, and the space left for you to perform is only the size of the camera.

Sometimes it was so hot that after taking a shot, my whole body felt like it was soaked in water.

In this kind of environment, you have to try your best to remember every detail of the performance, every line, and even every look. At the end of the day, even if there are no NGs, you will be exhausted.

Shen Lang finished filming "The Hidden Man" and took a full ten days to recover.

Just at this time, Jing Cheng also took a break, and Shen Lang finally fulfilled his promise and went hiking together.

Maoer Mountain, as the name suggests, is a pair of peaks that look like cat ears. The scenery is very nice, but...

"Brother Shen, do you have confidence?" Jing Cheng's long legs in hiking pants dazzled Shen Lang in front of him.

"Of course. It's only over 1,000 meters above sea level. When I climbed Zhaoshan Mountain, I climbed it in one breath without feeling anything."

"Brother Shen is really awesome, let's get started!"

"come on!"

……

Half an hour later!

"Huff, huff, huff..." Shen Lang sat on the stone, holding his knees with both hands, and asked with sweat all over his forehead: "How high is it?"

Jing Cheng took out a bottle of water and handed it to Shen Lang, then looked at the altitude on his watch...

"One hundred twenty……"

"Time is unforgiving. I used to pee ten feet high against the wind, but now the wind is blowing and my shoes are wet!"

Xu Jing, who was standing by, chuckled and said, "Didn't Brother Shen tell us at the foot of the mountain that you climbed Zhaoshan Mountain easily? How high is Zhaoshan Mountain?"

"More than one hundred and eighty meters..."

"..."

……

Finally climbing halfway up the mountain, the three stopped to rest for a while.

Xu Jing was boiling water to make tea in the open space, while Jing Cheng was reading a book.

"What book is that? You're reading it so intently!" Shen Lang sat next to Jing Cheng and turned sideways to look at the book.

Jing Cheng closed the book and handed it to Shen Lang, saying, "Shenmu!"

Shen Lang turned a page and saw the words: "The bottom of the kiln is dull, filled with a drowsy smell of decay and death. When people come here, it's like taking some kind of anesthetic. Both the killer and the killed become somewhat numb. Unlike in broad daylight on the ground, killing a person can easily be exaggerated into a major event."

Turning to another page: "When the pickaxe came into contact with Dianzi's head, it made a dull sound, which was not pleasant to hear. When people describe people with dull brains as having no sound when they are knocked, they probably mean this kind of sound."

Seeing this, Shen Lang asked curiously: "Why would you read this kind of book?"

Jing Cheng said: "I was bored while filming, so I bought a lot of books online. This is one of them. I thought it was quite cruel when I read it last night, so I thought I would read it when I have time today!"

Shen Lang flipped through the book and found that the story was about a dark world under the coal mine. Co-workers who claimed to be your relatives would smash your head and then use your body to blackmail the mine owner. This kind of people were beasts in human form.

"You are a girl, but you like to read such heavy literature. It makes me..."

When Shen Lang said this, he suddenly froze in place.

"Shenmu", mines, co-workers pretending to be relatives... Isn't this "Blind Shaft"?

Thinking of this, he opened the book again and started reading.

In the meantime, Xu Jing boiled some water and handed it to Shen Lang and Jing Cheng.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lang was so engrossed in reading that Xu Jing held the cup in front of him for a long time and even called him a few times, but Shen Lang didn't pay attention.

Jing Cheng pulled her aside and whispered, "Brother Shen is reading a book, let's go over to the side!" Xu Jing was about to speak when Jing Cheng pulled her away.

When they got to the side, Xu Jing complained, "We agreed to come climb the mountain, why are you reading a book?"

"I say you two are really interesting!"

"On one date, he dragged his best friend to be a light bulb. On another date, he didn't communicate with you, a beautiful woman, but read a book instead. And he was so engrossed in it!"

Jing Cheng smiled and said, "Isn't this great? As long as I'm with Brother Shen, I feel comfortable! Whether he chats with me or not, I'm happy just looking at him!"

"It's over, Jing Cheng, he has completely taken you down!"

"You two rarely see each other a few times a year. What's so attractive about Shen Lang that makes you so obsessed with him?"

"Go, go!" Jing Cheng rolled his eyes at his bestie, took a sip of water, looked at the rolling mountains and said, "Although Teacher Shen and I haven't confirmed our relationship, I feel more comfortable in this state now!"

"You, you are not a non-marriage person, right?"

"I don't know. Anyway, I don't want to be bound by a certain relationship, girlfriend, wife, etc."

Xu Jing stared at Jing Cheng blankly, gave him a thumbs up and said, "You are really avant-garde!"

Jing Cheng laughed and said, "Maybe... you are really stupid!"

……

Just as the two were looking at the scenery and chatting, Shen Lang suddenly said from a distance: "Cheng Cheng, come down the mountain, I have something urgent to do!"

Xu Jing said speechlessly: "Brother, we haven't reached the top of the mountain yet?"

"Next time I'll take you to climb Mount Tai. Who can climb more than a thousand meters? Let's go, let's go..."

Xu Jing: "..."

On the way back to the capital, Jing Cheng asked, "Why are you in such a hurry to get down the mountain? Did something happen?"

Shen Lang took her copy of Shenmu, not caring whether he felt dizzy from reading in the car or not. He just stared at the book and shook his head, saying, "No, I just think this book is very good. I plan to contact the original author and adapt this novel into a movie!"

When Xu Jing heard that Shen Lang wanted to change the movie, her eyes lit up: "Brother Shen, I boiled water for you and Jing Cheng when we went hiking today."

Shen Lang looked up at Xu Jing in confusion: "Where's the water?"

Xu Jing looked at Jing Cheng and said coquettishly: "Cheng Cheng, look at him..."

Jing Cheng laughed and said, "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Why do you have to play dumb with Brother Shen?"

Xu Jing looked at Shen Lang: "Brother Shen, is there a role suitable for me?"

Shen Lang glanced at her, nodded and said, "Don't mention it, it really is true!"

"Then considering my relationship with Jing Cheng, I'll ask Brother Shen if you can cast me for this role right now?"

Shen Lang closed the book and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about Jing Cheng. Just based on our relationship, you are the heroine of this play!"

Xu Jing was surprised when she heard this: "Really? What's the name of the character?"

"Xiaohong!"

"Xiao Hong? She looks so rustic. What does Xiao Hong do?"

"Selling Y-girls!"

Xu Jing was completely dumbfounded when she heard this. After a long pause, she complained to Jing Cheng who was driving, "Cheng Cheng, look at him! This is the Big Brother Shen you've always thought about. This is how Big Brother Shen treats your bestie!"

Shen Lang turned to look at Xu Jing in the back row and said, "Besides, this movie probably can't be shown because it's too explicit!"

Xu Jing obviously misunderstood Shen Lang's meaning and thought that he wanted to shoot some special type of film. Upon hearing this, she quickly covered her collar.

"What do you want to do? I don't want to film anymore!"
