Perfection

Chapter 93

After finalizing the contract with the new movie crew, the time for joining the crew was planned.

  She heard that Lu Jinlang was going to film with Wen Jianing. The old lady Lu said she was looking forward to it and that she would definitely want to go to the shooting site with him, but Lu Jinlang refused.

  Lu Jinlang was afraid that she would not know how to behave by then, and that she would be too affectionate to Wen Jianing in front of others, and instead would cause unnecessary trouble.

  Regardless of how many people in the circle know about the matter between him and Wen Jianing, but when they are on the set, the two will avoid being too close in front of others.

  Xie Ruoming has his own habit of filming. As long as conditions permit, he is always accustomed to shooting the first scene of the movie script at the forefront.

  The first shot is in a little old and shabby classroom.A girl of about ten years old is sitting in front of a small book table to put blocks. Not far from her, there is a big boy between young and teenger. He was wearing a hoodie. His face looked pale and thin, and he was holding his hair in a daze.

  This is Ye Xing played by Wen Jianing.

  Ye Xing is only eighteen years old. Compared with Wen Jianing, no, it should be said that with Ke Xinhang’s true age, Ye Xing is only several years younger. He chose Wen Jianing because he looks like a college student as long as he is dressed a little more casually. It is also because Xie Ruoming had seen many young actors before, but he didn’t find what he wanted. The image of Wen Jianing in “Bitter Summer” is very consistent with Ye Xing’s appearance, and the rest will depend on the director’s guidance and his own acting skills to fill the role.

       Before the official shooting began, Wen Jianing and Xie Ruoming had a conversation. Xie Ruoming meant that the audience should not doubt the role of Ye Xing until the truth of the movie was revealed at the last minute. It is necessary to fully show the appearance of an autistic patient.

       At this moment, Ye Xing, played by Wen Jianing, is looking up at the exhaust fan rotating in front of the classroom, as if being attracted by the rotating fan sheet.

  Before joining the crew, in order to study the behavior patterns of children with autism, he and Xie Ruoming had visited autism rehabilitation institutions. Although they didn’t spend too much time together, he learned a lot from the teachers of the institutions.

  At this time, Ye Xing was going to pretend to be an autistic patient who was attracted by the exhaust fan. Even if there was a girl next to him who didn’t care about his actions at all, he did not relax at all. So what is Ye Xing thinking at this time? While staring at the fan, Wen Jianing thought, if he was Ye Xing, he should be watching the camera next to the exhaust fan with the afterlight of his eyes. When and how should he stop these cameras?

  After not too long, Chen Zejun, played by Lu Jinlang, entered the classroom.

  There are only two children in this classroom. Because this rehabilitation institution is located in a very dilapidated building in the old city, it is not a very formal rehabilitation institution. Chen Zejun is a poor policeman which means he cannot give his daughter better conditions.

  His entry did not attract anyone’s attention until he walked up to his daughter and said to her, “It’s time to go.”

  The girl looked at the time. It was indeed the time when her father came to pick her up. She obediently put down the building blocks and followed Chen Zejun away.

  Chen Zejun took his daughter’s hand, and when he passed Ye Xing, he raised his hand and touched his head, as if touching a child. He often sees him here, although he knows it is impossible, but he thinks this young man should be regarded as his daughter’s classmate.

  Ye Xing still didn’t pay attention to him, and then Chen Zejun left with his daughter.

  This is the first act of the whole movie.

  The filming of this scene went well. The daughter of Chen Zejun is a child star. She doesn’t have many roles and basically has no lines. This kind of shooting seemed relatively simple for her, and Xie Ruoming also deliberately avoided giving her too many close-up shots.

  When the filming ended, Wen Jianing and Lu Jinlang sat side by side to rest.

  Lu Jinlang picked up the water glass and handed it to him, and asked, “How do you feel?”

  Wen Jianing did not answer, but instead asked, “What do you think?”

  Lu Jinlang said, “It looks good, what were you thinking when you were in a daze?”

  Wen Jianing smiled and replied, “I was thinking about how to kill your daughter.”

  This sort of thing feels very weirdly wonderful. He remembered that the last time he was shooting Xie Ruoming’s movie, he and Lu Jinlang’s seats were always separated by a certain distance. It was not that they had any opinion on each other, but that they were not close enough to sit together and they found it awkward to talk. But now when two people are together, even if they don’t say a word, they won’t feel awkward.

  Xie Ruoming called Wen Jianing over to talk about the play.

  According to the plan, there will be no more roles for Lu Jinlang today, but he is still waiting on the set without leaving immediately.

  Wen Jianing goes to change clothes, the next scene is also a highlight. This part will appear in the last part, it is a scene where Ye Xing kills Chen Zejun’s daughter.

  This scene will be blurred. After all, the little girl in the movie is only ten years old and has a tragic death. It is impossible to fully perform it on the screen. What Xie Ruoming wants to render is a more thrilling atmosphere.

  In the script, Ye Xing destroyed the cameras beforehand. He knew that no one would pay attention even if the cameras were malfunctioning at this time. When there were only two of them in the classroom, Ye Xing stood up and walked in the direction of the little girl.

  The little girl was still focused on the world of building blocks. Ye Xing walked in front of her and she did not respond until Ye Xing reached out and covered her mouth and dragged her to the side.

  Wen Jianing was always expressionless during this filming. He seemed to be living in another world, and his behavior and expression didn’t go well together. Even when he dragged the little girl away, he tried his best to avoid the obvious expression on his face because of the force.

  Xie Ruoming was a little surprised by Wen Jianing’s performance of this paragraph, but soon the problem came, because the little girl failed to hold on, she was frightened, and was a little stunned.

  Shooting stopped temporarily.

  Wen Jianing touched the top of the little girl’s head with a smile, and said, “It’s just filming, don’t be afraid.”

  But the little girl didn’t get it over immediately, and even tears filled her eyes because of the shock. Her mother accompanied her at the shooting scene and hurriedly came to comfort her.

  Xie Ruoming said to take a break for a while.

  Wen Jianing returned to Lu Jinlang’s side, and Lu Jinlang said to him, “That’s good.” Lu Jinlang never thought of Wen Jianing’s performance

  He took a deep breath and rubbed his neck tiredly. Wen Jianing said, “To be honest, this character has more room for expression than I expected.”

  ”Of course,” Lu Jinlang said, “It seems that although Chen Zejun is the first lead, Ye Xing’s role is not less than that of him, otherwise, how could he be called as second lead?”

  Wen Jianing said to Lu Jinlang, “Why didn’t you go back first?”

  Lu Jinlang smiled, “Don’t want me to stay and watch you film?”

  Wen Jianing shook his head, “I wonder if you will be affected? Chen Zejun shouldn’t have seen this scene.”

  ”No, nothing can affect me,” Lu Jinlang said, but reached out his hand to pick up the jacket that was thrown on the chair, and greeted Lu Yunan to go back, “What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll make it for you.”

  Wen Jianing said, “I want to eat free range chicken rice noodles.”

  Lu Jinlang shrugged his shoulders, “Okay, I will go to the market to buy free range chicken and rice noodles.”

  Later, after repeated communication and persuasion with the little girl, the filming went on smoothly.

  The little girl was smothered to death by Ye Xing. After that, Ye Xing stripped her clothes naked. He deliberately made some false impressions that made other people more likely to be suspected. Then he hid himself in a small cabinet at the back of the classroom.

  At the end of the filming that day, Wen Jianing was a bit exhausted.

  Wen Tinghuan drove him home and said, “You pervert.”

  Wen Jianing turned his head to look at her, “Why am I a pervert?”

  Wen Tinghuan shook her head, shivering.

  Back home, Wen Jianing really smelled a nice fragrance from the kitchen. He walked over, stood at the door and asked, “How do you know I’m back?”

  Lu Jinlang took the chopsticks and fished the cooked rice noodles from the pot into the bowl, and said at the same time, “As soon as you went upstairs, Tinghuan called me.”

  ”When did she become your undercover agent?”

  Lu Jinlang smiled, “It’s been a long time.”

  At night, Wen Jianing was lying on the bed, and Lu Jinlang helped him rub his shoulders.

  ”Tired?” Lu Jinlang asked him.

  Wen Jianing nodded, buried his face in the pillow and said muffledly, “It’s a personal thing.”

  Lu Jinlang smiled, “You scared the little girl to tears today, you are very hardworking.”

  Wen Jianing raised his head slightly and said, “To be honest, I have some expectations for Xie Ruoming’s movie.”

  Lu Jinlang looked down at him, “To win the award?”

  Wen Jianing said, “I know I shouldn’t use winning or not to comment on an actor and his acting skills, but since I’m in this industry, I always want to be affirmed by others.”

  Lu Jinlang’s hands slowly pushed down his spine from his shoulders, “Or do you think the most important thing is to beat me?”

  Wen Jianing laughed when he heard the words, he said, “It is not to beat you, but to stand at the same height as you, not to be left behind by you.”

  ”Nonsense,” Lu Jinlang said, “Your life just has a little unexpected incident. If you played the October fireworks in the end, where do you think you will stand today?”

  Wen Jianing was slightly confused when he heard this question, “Actually I don’t know.”

  Lu Jinlang buried his head and kissed his back, and said, “Since you don’t know, try it. You have many opportunities in the future, so take it.”

  Wen Jianing turned over and raised his hand to hug him.
