Chapter 340: Heaven Destroys the Qing Dynasty

Shen Lang swore that he had never seen such a worry-free crew.

It really saves you a lot of trouble, and I’m not saying that in a sarcastic way.

The filming officially began, and "Secretary Yuliang" Zhang Zhijian joined the crew.

He and Shen Lang originally knew each other on the set of "In the Name of People".

But after joining the group, the two of them only greeted each other when they met, and they hardly interacted with each other on weekdays.

After returning to the hotel, everyone went back to their rooms and did their own things without any socializing.

For example, Mr. Xu Guangming, who played the eunuch Lu Fang, the seal holder of the Imperial Household Department.

He used to live in the same compound with Shen Lang's family. He has played the role of a senior general of the National Army many times in his life. Shen Lang would call him Uncle Xu whenever they met. Every time he saw Shen Lang, he always had a smile on his face and was especially kind to an elder.

But after joining the crew this time, his whole temperament changed. In his words, from the moment he joined the crew, according to the director's requirements, he also had to act and speak with Lu Fang's thinking in real life.

Shen Lang was shocked. He had never seen such a serious director before (in reality, Director Zhang Li did ask his crew to do the same!)

However, these seemingly strict requirements are actually very helpful to directors and actors in their film creation.

Everyone is busy with their own things, all immersed in study and work, and the atmosphere is very similar to that of a college entrance examination review class.

With the improvement of efficiency, the shooting progress will naturally be accelerated a lot.

The entire crew spent the New Year in the hotel.

Apart from the fact that Director Ouyang of Golden Eagle Media and Mango TV personally came to the scene to wish the crew a happy new year, there was almost no rest at all.

Sometimes it's just magical.

The actors are busy all day long and have constant social engagements.

When I arrived at the tense group, I was able to relax physically and mentally under such strict shooting discipline.

Get busy when there is work to do, rest when there is nothing to do, and leave when the filming is finished. It is so comfortable. Even Yanni, one of the few female actors in this men's drama, gained three kilograms because she rested so well.

Finally, in April, the entire crew's reshoots were completed.

Shen Lang and Huang Zhizhong, who played Hai Rui, stayed in the crew for more than two months because they were the leading actors of the play.

It was not until I returned to the capital and recorded in the recording studio that I was finally able to leave the group.

When leaving, Zhang Li held Shen Lang's hand and sighed: "Teacher Shen, your self-discipline really surprised me!"

Shen Lang asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Before filming this drama, I was always influenced by your past roles, and my impression of you as a person was a little biased!"

"After these two months of interaction, I found that you are an upright and pure actor!"

Shen Lang felt embarrassed when he heard this: "Director, do you have to be so exaggerated? I think these rules are pretty good for joining your group!"

Zhang Li sighed and said, "Other actors will either bring their wives or girlfriends over and stay in the hotel for two days."

"Either they skipped the crew's meals and ordered takeout, or they stayed up late at night and drank in their rooms!"

"Some even called their besties and hired a manicurist from the capital to do their nails at the hotel!"

"Only you..." Zhang Li excitedly shook Shen Lang's hand and said, "Only you, Mr. Shen, would consciously return to the hotel to memorize the script after work every time!"

Ah...??? Shen Lang was stunned.

How the hell can you do this?
The one who didn't eat the crew's meals and asked someone to run errands was Yanni. Damn, no wonder he lost 3 kilograms and she gained 3 kilograms after filming a scene.

Who does the manicure?

Could it be the so-and-so who plays the famous prostitute...

What Shen Lang found most difficult to accept was the outrageous move of bringing his wife and girlfriend to the hotel.

Wow, if I had known I could do this earlier, Jingcheng would have called me several times to visit the set, why did I refuse?

My boss was flying to Guangxi Province to film and passed by Xingcheng, but I told her that she was in military training and not to disturb her...

day!!!!!
He could only force a smile: "Director, this is the basic ethics of an actor, just obey the director!" Zhang Li patted the back of his hand: "Good job, I'm currently discussing another TV series, if you are interested......"

Upon hearing this, Shen Lang quickly declined politely. What a joke, being in closed management for more than two months is called self-cultivation. If it continues for another two months, people will go crazy.

After seeing off Zhang Li and the crew, Shen Lang, who had long been accustomed to collective life, suddenly felt at a loss.

When he got home, he sat down and was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, his butt jumped up from the chair: "Fuck, I'm fine!"

It turns out that, as per convention, before filming, Lao Lu would issue tasks for this work.

But this time, the filming was completed, but Lao Lu didn't make any movement at all.

Is it...

Shen Lang was sweating profusely. Could it be that my Ah Lu was castrated by the slaughterhouse because he mistakenly put the [Zombie Apocalypse Survival Halo] into his system last time?

The more Shen Lang thought about it, the more anxious he became, and the more he felt that something had gone wrong.

He called out to the old donkey many times in his heart, but to his surprise, there was no movement at all.

After trying for many days, there was really no movement at all.

Shen Lang has tried various methods, including but not limited to the following methods...:
Eat donkey meat hotpot, donkey-hide gelatin paste, donkey three treasures, donkey meat hotpot...

It’s useless, absolutely useless. Shen Lang is almost in despair.

Unexpectedly, just as he was lying in state at home, Chen Baoguo called him.

"Brother Shen! Have you returned to the capital?"

Shen Lang said weakly: "Yes, Teacher Chen is back too?"

"I'm back!" Chen Baoguo laughed in a voice as loud as a bell, "Are you free today about what I told you last time? Come over and talk!"

It turned out to be about the post-production of "Tea House"!
For a movie adapted from a drama like "Teahouse", the post-production requirements are actually not very high. The other party probably invited me to go in order to introduce him to some connections or something.

This favor! Shen Lang owed it to him.

That afternoon, he took He Cang and Wang Peipei to the studio in person.

When we arrived at the place, the other party was filming.

It’s really amazing that an internal work of a society even built a special studio. The key is that it’s free, using the land and personnel provided by the central bank.

The performer on the stage is the impoverished old Chang Siye, who shouts in despair to the crowd: "I love my country, but who loves me?"

Shen Lang took a closer look. Hey, why does this Fourth Master Chang look more and more familiar?

"Boss Shen, this person seems to be Director Nie from CCTV!"

Oh my god, it’s true!

Isn’t this Director Nie Zhengxi?
During the last Spring Festival Gala rehearsal, he brought Hu Lala and a group of people to express his condolences.

At this moment, the old donkey who had not been seen for a few days suddenly appeared in Shen Lang’s mind.

"Ding, the latest mission is released."

"'The Ming Dynasty 1566' will soon be available to the public, increasing its ratings and getting its Doudou score to be above 9.5 by at least people!"

"Reward for completing the mission: 1 gold or higher attribute entry!"

Shen Lang had no time to care about the mission: "Donkey, donkeyε=(ο｀*))) Hey, I missed you so much~~~~~~Where have you been these two days?"

The old donkey said weakly: "Because I made two mistakes in a row, I was castrated. If I make another mistake, the host and I will be wiped out together!"

"what??????"

"Who's so awesome? To punish you for your mistake————and me???"

"A dead donkey cannot live again, but a living donkey will die sooner or later. Who can avoid making mistakes? God will destroy our Qing Dynasty!!!"
