Chapter 207: Is there a kissing scene? (4k)
Lin Qingyue revealed the answer, "Come out to collect materials for my new movie. As the future male lead, I will bring you along to deepen your impression."
Director Lin’s new movie?
Before this happened, when they were at a party at his house, Lin Qingyue had told him once that after the celebrity agency was closed, he would make a short film.
But I remember that I haven't agreed to be the leading actor in your movie.
Wu Mu muttered to himself, but wisely did not say it out loud. He was just curious, "Is Director Lin going to make a campus movie?"
Lin Qingyue thought about it and said, "It can't really be considered a campus film, but the identities of the male and female protagonists were indeed students at the beginning."
Wu Mu looked at the school nearby and asked, "Junior high school students?"
The Beijing Yanshan Middle School next door is a junior high school.
Lin Qingyue nodded, "That's the setting."
Wu Mu had a question, "Is it appropriate for me to play a junior high school student at my age?"
This actor is already old, but he insists on playing a young student, which has always been criticized by the audience.
Lin Qingyue stared at his face, carefully examining it for a while, then said with a smile: "You don't look old, and middle school students are quite mature nowadays, so you won't look out of place in there."
She had already thought about it, and laughed, "Change your clothes and control your body language. You will look like a student."
But as she spoke, she waved her hand nonchalantly, "But if you think it's inappropriate, you can change it to a high school student."
"Can this be exchanged?" Wu Mu was slightly stunned.
Just a few words, can the setting be changed because of an actor's question?
This attitude is too casual. Why does it feel like Director Lin’s new movie is quite unreliable?
Lin Qingyue smiled and said, "Yes, whether you go to junior high school or high school doesn't have much impact on the story, and the movie doesn't pay much attention to this aspect, so it doesn't matter if you want to change it."
Wu Mu thought, "Forget it, let's not change it. I'll just ask."
His face is indeed quite young, so it wouldn't be too weird for him to play a junior high school student.
Lin Qingyue laughed and said, "Let's go inside and take a look."
As she spoke, she was about to take Wu Mu into school.
The school was on summer vacation at this time and there were no students, but there were still security guards.
Lin Qingyue must have informed the school in advance, so the security guard in the guard room registered their names and let them in directly.
As soon as you enter the school, you will see a small courtyard planted with various flowers and plants. In the middle of the small courtyard, on a large stone tablet, is engraved the school motto: "Broad learning enlightens wisdom, upright morality establishes conduct, and sincere practice leads to far-reaching goals."
Seeing him looking at the stone tablet, Lin Qingyue introduced it to him, "This is the inscription written by the first principal, Qian Qiming, when the school was founded."
Qian Qiming?
Wu Mu thought about it for a moment and remembered that this was the name of an extremely famous writer and educator in modern times in the Blue Star China.
Tsk, I can only say that it is worthy of being the place where Mr. Jing studied. It has all kinds of low-key and luxurious details that ordinary people would never see in their lifetime.
Lin Qingyue seemed to sense his thoughts and patted him on the shoulder with amusement, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. I'm just an ordinary person and I don't make as much money as you."
Ordinary people?
You better be!
Although he had never talked to Lin Qingyue about her family situation in detail, Wu Mu had already figured out from various details in life that Lin Qingyue's family was more than just having a father who was an international director.
Lin Qingyue looked at the stone tablet with the school motto and sighed, "I still remember taking photos here when I graduated. I didn't expect so many years to have passed in the blink of an eye."
Wu Mu was curious, "Director Lin should not have been here for many years, right?"
Lin Qingyue replied, "It's been six or seven years."
Six or seven years?
Director Lin is only about 22 or 23 years old, about the same age as me?
Wu Mu calculated in his mind.
She is younger than he thought. Although Lin Qingyue's face is indeed quite young and she can seamlessly play the role of a student by changing clothes, he always thought that Lin Qingyue was at least twenty-six or twenty-seven years old because of her steady and generous style of behavior.
Lin Qingyue was very sensitive, and seemed to sense his crickets behind her. She glanced at him and said with a smile, "I'm ten months older than you. I was born on October 10, xx. Call me sister."
Wu Mu turned his head, met her gaze, and said bluntly, "Sister Lin."
Lin Qingyue locked eyes with him for two seconds, and couldn't help laughing out loud, "Forget it, let's not yell anymore. It sounds too weird."
Wu Mu was also somewhat happy.
The two continued walking in the campus, and to the right of the gate stone tablet, there was a tree-lined path leading to the playground.
While Lin Qingyue was taking Wu Mu for a stroll, she briefly introduced the story of her new film:
"The story of the new movie is about a middle school student who has a very good relationship with a female classmate. However, this female classmate transferred to another school because of her father's job transfer. After losing contact for more than half a year, the two reconnected through letters. They often wrote letters to share daily interesting stories in their lives. The relationship did not fade because of the separation, but became stronger and stronger."
Lin Qingyue was introducing the story of her new movie when she suddenly stopped and looked at the tree-lined path under their feet. She had an idea, "This path is pretty good. We can arrange a shot of them walking along it."
"Where were we just now?" After writing down this new idea, Lin Qingyue returned to the story of her new movie.
"Speaking of the letters the male and female protagonists sent to each other after they separated, their relationship did not fade, but instead became better and better," Wu Mu reminded.
"Oh, the relationship between the two is getting better and better, but then the middle school boy has to transfer to a school far away, where letters can no longer be delivered within a few days, but will take one or two months. Knowing that the reality will be more difficult, the boy decides to go to the girl's city to meet her. After experiencing a series of difficulties such as train delays and snowstorms blocking the road, the boy finally meets the girl who has been waiting for him. The two walk in the girl's town, talking about their thoughts after so many years of separation, and finally kiss under a cherry tree."
Wu Mu interrupted, "Kiss?"
Lin Qingyue looked at him puzzledly, "Yes, what's wrong?"
Wu Mu repeated, "Is there a kissing scene?"
Lin Qingyue stared at him for two seconds with a slightly strange look on her face, and then she said with a funny expression, "Don't tell me you still have psychological barriers to kissing scenes."
Wu Mu nodded honestly, "Yes, a little bit."
Lin Qingyue didn't quite understand, "I remember the TV series and movies you filmed before, there should have been kissing scenes, right?"
We've filmed it before, so why not now? Besides, you and your female boss did everything, and it wasn't your first kiss, so what kind of psychological barrier could there be?
Lin Qingyue looked at him very puzzled.
Wu Mu felt a little guilty.
The past is the past, and the present is the present.
He had filmed a kissing scene before, but as a game company boss who came from a social animal background, he had never done one.
Although he has had quite a few romantic experiences, he was only dating serious girls, and his behavior was natural when the love was strong.
Now that he has to film a kissing scene with another actress, Wu Mu has to admit that he feels a little weird inside.
However, kissing scenes are unavoidable for actors, and as a man, it would be hypocritical for him to say that he has a big psychological barrier to kissing scenes. "I haven't filmed for a while, so I'm a little uncomfortable, but I can adjust." Wu Mu replied.
Lin Qingyue didn't know whether she believed it or not, she nodded and explained to him, "If it's a shot that doesn't require high standards, it wouldn't matter if we use a borrowed position, but this shot is quite important, so we can't use a borrowed position."
Wu Mu nodded, indicating that he understood.
Lin Qingyue continued her introduction of the story, "After the kiss, the hero and the girl parted ways. The hero who transferred to another school became even more distant from the girl. At first they could still keep in touch, but gradually the contact became less and less. Many years later, the hero who was already working and the girl passed each other again at a train intersection, but this time the girl was wearing an engagement ring and had a fiancé who was about to get married. After the hero passed her, he turned around to confirm if it was her, but was blocked by a passing train. When the train left, there was no one on the other side."
Wu Mu waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that Lin Qingyue didn't say anything else, he was slightly stunned, "That's it?"
Lin Qingyue smiled and spread her hands, "That's it."
“Although there are some other plots in between, this is the general outline.”
Wu Mu was speechless, "This story seems a little too simple."
He had been thinking that there would be a long series of encounters between them, with the two of them being toyed with and alienated by the tide of fate, but it ended here?
This is too bland!
The whole story doesn't have any major ups and downs. Well, if a movie like this is made, who would be willing to watch it! ?
Wu Mu once again felt the unreliability of Director Lin’s new project.
He couldn't figure it out. "What is this story trying to say?"
Lin Qingyue smiled and continued to spread her hands, "What I wanted to say is what I just told you, don't you understand?"
Wu Mu shook his head honestly, "I don't understand."
Lin Qingyue was not angry, she was still smiling, "It's just an art film, it's normal that you don't understand it."
No, even if it is an art film, yours is a little too artistic!
There isn't even a fully structured story at all!
Wu Mu couldn't help but recall what the French director said in Paris a long time ago, that Lin Qingyue's film was like a landscape film.
Director Lin is not planning to shoot another "landscape film", is he?
He muttered in his mind.
Lin Qingyue, who was smiling, seemed to have noticed something and rolled her eyes at him, "Are you thinking of something impolite?"
Wu Mu remained calm, "No, I was just thinking that I couldn't understand this story, how should I act it out then?"
"Just perform as normal. It's still early. It will probably take several months to prepare. There's no rush." Lin Qingyue waved her hand indifferently.
The two of them had already walked through the tree-lined path and arrived at the school playground.
Lin Qingyue looked at the plastic track in the playground and was very emotional. "This place is the same as when I was in school. In the past, during physical education class, our class often had running competitions, and I always won first place in the class."
Wu Mu looked up and down at Lin Qingyue's neat and clean outfit, and nodded. It was not surprising. It was obvious that Lin Qingyue had good athletic ability.
He was very curious, "Director Lin, did you adapt the story just now based on your own school life? Did you not end up together with the boy you liked in school?"
Lin Qingyue looked back at him and shook her head, "No, it's based on a novel called "Letter, Sakura, Parting."
Adapted from a novel?
Wu Mu wrote down the name of the novel and planned to find it out and read it later to see if he could understand the story told by Director Lin through the novel.
Anyway, what Director Lin said seemed too bland to him.
After Lin Qingyue introduced the source of the adaptation, she laughed and said, "I never had a love affair when I was in school, so I don't have such an experience to adapt."
Wu Mu was surprised. "Director Lin, you must have had a lot of suitors when you were in school. Didn't you have a date?"
Lin Qingyue smiled helplessly, "Maybe I'm not as good-looking as you, Teacher Wu Mu. No one chased me when I was in school."
real or fake?
It is true that Lin Qingyue is not as pretty as me. After all, my appearance attribute is now 90 points.
But with Lin Qingyue's looks, if she had a ready-made attribute panel, her score would be at least around 85 points, which is definitely the top attribute among the crowd. How could no one pursue her with this look?
Wu Mu looked at Lin Qingyue with suspicion.
Lin Qingyue spread her hands innocently, "Really not."
OK.
"It may be that Director Lin, you have too much aura, so your classmates don't dare to do it." Wu Mu guessed.
The two continued walking along the playground, planning to take a look at the school's classroom next.
But before we even walked out of the playground, a relatively young female teacher came running towards us from a distance, shouting as she ran, "You two, which class are you from? How did you get in? Why are you here in the school during the summer vacation?"
Lin Qingyue looked at Wu Mu beside her and said with a smile, "See, I told you that you have no problem playing a middle school student."
You're not bad either.
Wu Mu muttered to himself.
The young female teacher quickly ran closer and then she could see their appearance clearly.
When she saw Lin Qingyue, there was no special expression on her face, just a slightly confused look.
But when she saw Wu Mu, she was stunned, stopped walking, and looked at Wu Mu in astonishment.
Lin Qingyue laughed again, "Look, you are much more famous than me. No one remembers me as a student who graduated from here, but everyone knows you as a big star."
The young female teacher did recognize Wu Mu.
The further she walked, the more stunned her expression became.
Is it really the star Wu Mu?
How could such a big star come to their school?
These two sides are totally unrelated.
But as she walked, she suddenly came to her senses and looked towards Lin Qingyue, and asked in surprise, "Lin Qingyue?"
Lin Qingyue greeted with a smile, "Teacher Qiu, you are still in good health as before."
It seems that the two sides know each other.
Not only did he know her, but although this female teacher looked young, she was actually already 32 or 33 years old. She had taught Lin Qingyue before and was Lin Qingyue's former teacher.
The female teacher, who was called Teacher Qiu, was undoubtedly very happy about the visit from her former student. "It's really you. I talked to Teacher Hu about your program some time ago. I didn't expect to meet you in person now."
Well, besides being happy, I also felt a little weird.
She looked at Lin Qingyue and Wu Mu with some hesitation, "What are you doing?"
This was obviously a private meeting, and Lin Qingyue brought Wu Mu to her old school. Could these two be in love?
