After escorting the prisoner into the detention center, Yan Yan and Fu Minghua returned to the brigade side by side in silence.
Fu Mingyang led Yan Yan into the office, closed the door to block others from seeing, and poured Yan Yan some water, saying, "Please have a seat."
Yan Yan, with a gentle expression, sat down quietly and looked at Fu Mingyang without saying a word.
Fu Mingyang poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Yan Yan. He watched as Yan Yan accepted it with both hands before asking, "What's your relationship with Song Zihua? Are you friends? Did you know each other before?"
Yan Yan: "I've met you."
Fu Mingyang's expression was subtle. "You've only met him once?"
Yan Yan nodded, a bright smile spreading across her baby face, "Yes, I bumped into you on the street once before."
Fu Mingyang was silent for a few seconds, "Judging from your previous behavior, I thought you were very familiar with him, because you seemed to trust him a lot."
Yan Yan blinked, his tone serious, and both his expression and voice conveyed a sense of pure innocence. "It's not that I believe him, it's that I believe in myself."
Because he has sufficient strength, he is confident that even if, according to Song Zihua, the situation could not be resolved in time, he could still take action to control the situation.
"Card."
Xia Zhiyi and Zhao Ziwang both looked in the direction of the director. Xia Zhiyi didn't show any obvious change, but Zhao Ziwang was noticeably more relaxed.
Zhao Ziwang turned to Director Mu and asked, " Director Mu, what's wrong?"
The two of them were stopped halfway through filming, which clearly indicates something was wrong.
Director Mu didn't answer his question immediately. Instead, he got up, walked over to the two of them, circled them once, and then stood there, stroking his chin thoughtfully. "Your expressions are fine, but your movements just don't seem a bit natural."
Zhao Ziwang pointed to himself. "Me?"
Xia Zhiyi placed her water glass on the coffee table and stood up. "Was I too well-behaved?"
Director Mu: "Hmm, Xiao Xia, you've practiced martial arts, so you should know better what little habits people who practice martial arts usually have, right?"
Xia Zhiyi: "Well, it really depends on personal habits. To be honest, it's possible that a situation like the Xiaolongnü in TV dramas could occur."
Well, like sleeping on a rope, maybe some people would actually do that.
Director Mu: "... So, what kind of habits do you think Yan Yan might have?"
Yan Yan is a gentle, reserved, and quite confident person. Because he has formally studied martial arts, his martial arts skills are higher than those of ordinary people. Therefore, based on his strength, he is more composed and even reckless in handling certain matters.
However, his gentle and reserved demeanor in public masks this unbridled nature. Most people would only perceive him as reliable and would hardly notice his flamboyant and unrestrained behavior in certain aspects.
In the original script, it was a bit difficult to portray Yan Yan's trait. Director Mu even considered abandoning this characterization if necessary and having Yan Yan appear as a gentle persona. This was because the previous actress who played Yan Yan was unable to perfectly portray the action scenes, so Yan Yan's role would focus more on the dramatic scenes.
But if Xia Zhiyi were to play the role, the result would naturally be different.
Because of Xia Zhiyi, he's really good at fighting.
This, in turn, provides more details about Yan Yan's death.
Under Director Mu's gaze, Xia Zhiyi pondered for a moment, quickly constructing a character model in her mind, completing Yan Yan's life story within her own framework. Then she looked at Director Mu, " Director Mu, how about we try again?"
Director Mu nodded. "Okay."
Actually, there wasn't anything wrong with their performance just now; it's just that Director Mu felt they could strive for even better results and aim for perfection.
If things really don't work out, Director Mu won't be too demanding about Yan Yan and Fu Mingyang's scenes. After all, this is a TV series, and they aren't the main characters, so it's okay to relax the requirements a little.
Fortunately, during the second take, Xia Zhiyi adjusted his walking posture, making his steps visibly lighter and more agile, creating a more striking contrast with Fu Mingyang who was walking beside him, and thus successfully met Director Mu's requirements.
Ultimately, Director Mu simply wanted to showcase Yan Yan's martial arts skills in a more prominent way, allowing the audience to more directly perceive the difference between a martial arts practitioner and an ordinary martial artist.
Well, after confirming that Xia Zhiyi really knew Qinggong, Director Mu directly upgraded Yan Yan as well, so Xia Zhiyi also has several flying scenes in the drama.
The morning's filming went smoothly, mainly because it consisted of dialogue scenes. After filming several scenes, Zhao Ziwang felt it went well. With the two of them working together yesterday afternoon, most of the morning's scenes were completed in one take.
As filming wrapped up, Xia Zhiyi overheard a staff member remark, "Luckily, all the actors in our crew memorized their lines."
Yes, the reason why filming was able to be completed so smoothly was not only because Xia Zhiyi cooperated well with the actors she was acting with, but also because... it seems that there were no actors in this crew who didn't even memorize their lines and just started saying "one, two, three, four, five" right away.
Xia Zhiyi had memorized the entire script, so memorizing lines was no problem for him.
As for the others, not to mention the older actors, even Zhao Ziwang, an idol artist who is in the process of transitioning, all of them memorized their lines perfectly and would review them before going on stage, which shows how serious they were.
This is the biggest reason why everyone was able to complete the filming smoothly. Everyone was very serious and made ample preparations before filming, which allowed the filming to proceed smoothly.
Xia Zhiyi was very satisfied.
Although he almost tripped over a prop that inexplicably appeared at his feet when he finished work, and his bad luck struck again, he was still very happy.
"Great, it seems the actors in this TV series are all very dedicated, and no one is causing trouble," Xia Zhiyi thought to herself.
If it's just his bad luck, then it's not a big deal.
The most annoying thing is running into a troublesome person who forces you to divert your energy to deal with interpersonal issues; that's the real hassle.
Oh, and there's also the kind of person who acts like a diva on set and is unruly outside of it; in the end, one person might drag the entire show down and prevent it from airing. However, that's unlikely to happen since Fu Yunyi is the male lead.
Because Fu Yunyi is the male lead.
" Teacher Xia ~" Zhao Ziwang sat down next to Xia Zhiyi with a slightly flirtatious voice, nudging his arm with his. "You're leaving at three o'clock this afternoon, right? Back to University A?"
Xia Zhiyi nodded. "Yes, I have class tomorrow morning, so I have to go back tonight."
He's had classes every Monday morning for the past few weeks, otherwise he could have stayed on set until the evening.
Zhao Ziwang: "What a pity, then you completely missed out on Teacher Fu."
Upon hearing Xia Zhiyi smiled, thinking to herself, "That's not necessarily true."
