Xi'er lay on the edge of the door and looked out. She turned around and told everyone that the fierce landlady was gone. She immediately ran to Ding Jiamin's feet and looked at her in admiration with her little head raised.
“What for?” Ding Jiamin asked.
“You are so awesome, sister Xiaomin, 666.”
“…It’s a joke.” Ding Jiamin said coolly. Suddenly, a scream sounded in her ears, and Tan Jiner hugged her happily and jumped:
“Xiao Min, you are so awesome~~~ah——”
Xi'er also followed suit, yelling, jumping around in circles around Ding Jiamin, and even brought Xiaomi with her.
The three women shouted excitedly, as if they had won a battle.
Ding Jiamin, who originally maintained a cool expression, couldn't help but laugh happily. It was really fun to fight against the evil people.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. The excited girls stopped, looked at each other, and sent Xi'er to check.
Xi'er walked halfway, turned back, and took the small water gun from Ding Jiamin's hand. Then she opened the door, stretched out her little head and looked outside. She saw the boss's wife leaving and returning, so she subconsciously took the small water gun away.
Lifted it up.
The landlady's face stiffened and she forced a smile and said: "Ho ho ho, it's Xi'er. Don't be afraid. Auntie is here to bring you watermelons. Here, take it, can you move it?"
Xi'er took a look at the big watermelon. It was really big. She answered the question unexpectedly: "I am very good at eating watermelon."
“If you’re awesome, eat more. Where’s your sister?”
“Sister~~~”
Tan Jin'er appeared, "What are you, boss lady?"
“Oh, I’m sorry. It was just a misunderstanding. I’ll give you a watermelon. It’s very hot. Children, please eat more and replenish water...”
The door closed again, and Tan Jin'er came back with a big watermelon in her arms and told Ding Jiamin that it was sent by the boss's wife. She said that she should eat more watermelons to replenish water and maintain her beauty.
"They also said that children should eat more big watermelons." Xi'er added that she wanted to eat big watermelons.
Tan Jin'er: "If you eat too much, you will wet the bed."
Xi'er was startled, and Xiaomi laughed out loud. Xi'er laughed so hard that she felt embarrassed, but she was honest and didn't deny it. Instead, hiahia laughed and said, just eat one piece, what if you really wet the bed?
Tan Jiner kept Ding Jiamin here for dinner, saying that he would make a sumptuous dinner to thank her.
Kindergarten started, and the summer interest classes run by Little Red Horse were temporarily suspended. Xin Xiaoguang was finally freed. This morning, he even brought a breakfast to Zhang Tan to thank him for his consideration.
After breakfast, Zhang Tan came to the crew. Sun Yadong and Zhang Ling were both there. The actors had already put on their makeup and filming was about to start.
Zhang Tan said hello to director Ren Zhicheng and stayed at the filming site to supervise the filming. As he watched, he felt something was wrong. Several actors' lines did not match those in the script, especially Xiao Mingjian's lines, which had changed a lot.
.
Zhang Tan watched in silence for more than an hour. It was not until the intermission that he found the director Ren Zhicheng alone. The two chatted for a long time, but the third person did not know what they were talking about. After the filming resumed, not long after, Ren Zhicheng
Call stop.
“Mingjian, you didn’t move properly just now, please pay attention and try again.”
Xiao Mingjian: “Okay.”
“Come again.”
After restarting, it was still at the original place. Ren Zhicheng shouted to stop, saying that the lines and pronunciation were not clear enough.
The third time, Ren Zhicheng called to stop again. This time he did not give any reason, but asked Zhang Tan to tell him about the play.
Xiao Mingjian was also confused. He felt that his performance was quite good, "Teacher Zhang, I feel very good. What's wrong?"
Zhang Tan smiled and said: "Overall, I actually feel good, but if I look closely, some details are not in place, such as what the line just said..."
“Oh, okay, I understand, then I’ll try again.”
The director asked to do it all over again, and it passed this time, but problems arose again in the next scene.
Two shots, with a total duration of less than one minute, but were cut more than a dozen times, all due to Xiao Mingjian's problems. He almost doubted his own ability during the cuts, and the staff and actors who co-starred with him couldn't help but feel dissatisfied.
Ren Zhicheng then said: "It seems that Mingjian is not in good condition today. It doesn't matter. Humans are not robots. There are always good times and bad times. Let's do this. The rest of Mingjian's scenes will be moved to the afternoon, and the original afternoon scenes will be played.
Teacher Zhang, please tell Mingjian about the drama."
Xiao Mingjian breathed a deep sigh of relief. He was cut more than a dozen times in a short period of time, which caused a lot of pressure on him.
“Teacher Zhang, please explain it to me carefully. I’m still confused. I...”
Zhang Tan interrupted: "Teacher Sun, Teacher Sun - come here, tell Mingjian the play, and I'll go to the scene and keep an eye on it."
Sun Yadong was startled and said that he was checking tomorrow's script.
“It’s okay, leave the inspection work to Zhang Ling. Mingjian’s matters are more important. You have been in contact with Mingjian a lot these days. It’s best for you to tell him the drama.”
Xiao Mingjian: "Yes, Teacher Sun, please explain it to me. I haven't figured it out yet."
Sun Yadong: “Okay.”
Zhang Tan called Zhang Ling over and asked him to take over the work Sun Yadong was doing.
After finishing the work in the morning, I took a short break at noon and continued filming.
Sun Yadong found Zhang Ling and asked him how the rehearsal for tomorrow's play was going.
“Give it to me and I’ll take a look,” he said.
At this time, Zhang Tan waved to him from a distance, and Zhang Ling reminded: "Teacher Zhang is calling you."
Sun Yadong rushed over and heard Zhang Tan say: "The company has a meeting in the afternoon and requires us to send a screenwriter. You can go."
Sun Yadong had no doubt that he was there. He went to the company and was told that he was giving practical lessons to a few new screenwriters. He was immediately dissatisfied. He could just find any screenwriter for this job, but was he really needed? Killing a chicken with a butcher's knife.
But now that I’m here, I can’t turn around and go back. I can only suppress my dissatisfaction and want to finish the lecture quickly and go back to the crew.
Halfway through the lesson, Sun Yadong's phone rang, and it turned out to be Zhang Li's.
“What’s the matter?” Sun Yadong came to the end of the corridor where no one was around and answered the phone.
“Where have you been? Why can’t you see anyone?” Zhang Li was a little anxious on the phone.
“I’m here at the company, what’s going on?”
“Why did you go to the company? Mingjian drama can’t even be filmed!”
"What's the meaning?"
"Didn't you tell Mingjian about the scene in the morning? As soon as the filming started in the afternoon, Mingjian was repeatedly called cut by the director. He found various reasons and cut him more than ten times in a row. He was scolded and his scene was postponed. He said
We will shoot again tomorrow and let him go back and calm down."
…”
Sun Yadong immediately noticed something unusual and asked: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
“I mean, did the director do it on purpose? Look, you were sent back to the company, and Mingjian kept being cut. Did you discover something?”
“What did we discover? What is there worth discovering about us? Don’t think about it, just leave it like that, I still have to go to class.”
Sun Yadong said this, but he still felt a little nervous in his heart. He finally finished the class patiently, thinking that he would observe it when he got to the set tomorrow. Suddenly he was stopped by someone, saying that he still had one day of class tomorrow!
“That’s what the director said.” The other party said, and Sun Yadong could only accept it impatiently.
On the other side, Zhang Li and Xiao Mingjian hid in the car and pondered the whole matter, and gradually figured out something.
"The filming was going well in the past few days, but today is so abnormal. If I want to say what is different between today and the past few days, I think about it, it is Zhang Tan. Zhang Tan was not here a few days ago, but Zhang Tan is here today," Zhang Li analyzed.
road.
Xiao Mingjian didn’t understand.
Zhang Li added: "I think it may be that Zhang Tan was dissatisfied with your changes to the script, so he deliberately tried to beat you up with the director."
“Isn’t it?”
“You’ll know if you try it.”
“How to try?”
“You can ask him to tell you a play later, and your attitude must be sincere.”
“Is this useful? The director asked him to tell me the play this morning, and he recommended it to Sun Yadong.”
"Take this script. This is the original script. Sun Yadong has not changed it before. You open it, turn to this page, show it to him, say you don't understand it, and ask him to explain it. Sun Yadong originally changed it a lot.
Da, if you ask him to tell you this part, he will understand at a glance that if he is willing to tell you the play, it will be because of the script modification."
