I am popular in the entertainment circle

"you're right."

Shi Jiayue nodded heavily, and waited for her to go to the bathroom to wash up. When she came out, she was much calmer.

Meng Ran and Shi Jiayue went downstairs, they came out quite early, the staff was making breakfast, Meng Ran planned to take a stroll around the villa.

Shi Jiayue was terrified, but still bit the bullet and followed Meng Ran out.

The villa during the day looks peaceful and leisurely, with many flowers, plants and trees. Even though it is early spring and the cold air is in full swing, it does not prevent them from growing vigorously. Most of the trees planted here are evergreen trees, only a few leaves have fallen off and no new ones have grown yet. Ye Zi, how can there be the eerie atmosphere at night?

Meng Ran looked around, but she didn't see the black cat Shi Jiayue mentioned, but felt that it was really quiet here.

She doesn't quite adapt to such an environment. Although Meng Ran usually stays at home and doesn't like to go out, she used to live in the old city, and the neighbors around her are all familiar faces. They are from his parents' generation, and they almost watched her grow up. Big, Meng Ran is in it, even if he stays at home, he doesn't feel lonely and deserted.

Now, she looked at this villa that seemed to be abandoned by the whole world, and there was not even a single living person within a hundred meters of her except for their crew.

I can't help but feel that if someone lives here, I'm afraid that if something happens, no one will be able to hear it.

Is this the alienation and nobility of the rich?
She doesn't understand, she still prefers that kind of human fireworks.

Shi Jiayue was also very uncomfortable, holding Meng Ran's arm, and said in a low voice,

"Why is no one living here, and there is no community security patrolling."

Meng Ran didn't know either, so she casually said,

"Maybe they only come to the villa for vacation occasionally."

Shi Jiayue shook her head, she was afraid that she would never be able to adapt to such a life.

After walking around for about half an hour, the logistics director sent a message saying that it was time for breakfast.

They went back.

After breakfast, Director Zeng called them to a conference room he had found temporarily, and said he would read the script around.

In the afternoon, I will formally take the makeup.

Shi Jiayue couldn't help asking Director Zeng,
"Are we going to do one of those evening, low-light make-up shots?"

"Yes, yes, after all, we are the subject of a ghost film. If we want to express this atmosphere, it will not be so natural in the post-production."

Shi Jiayue's face turned pale instantly.

Director Zeng immediately understood,

"Are you afraid?"

Meng Ran thought Director Zeng would give some words of comfort, but he didn't expect Director Zeng to say directly,
"Keep in this state, and you will need to be afraid of the scenes you are going to shoot in the early stage."

Meng Ran knew why.

In the early stage, the second girl was bullied on campus. This plot is relatively scattered and will be interspersed with the memories of the second girl.

After all, she was already a female ghost when she appeared on the stage.

Shi Jiayue was a little angry.

After being interrupted by Director Zeng, the atmosphere of fear was much less.

Director Zeng sat at the main table, looked around, and observed everyone's expressions.

Unfortunately, except for Shi Jiayue who was more scared, everyone else looked very calm, with a smile on their faces, even though this was what Director Zeng wanted from the very beginning - when he recruited actors, he specially chose bold ones.

Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if there is a problem during the shooting.

But now it's not good to have no fear at all.

After all, this is a group of rookie actors, unable to enter the play like old actors, so they pay attention to their true colors.

They can't express this fear, and the acting will be very grandiose.

Director Zeng thought about it and came up with an idea.

"The script, I have already sent it to everyone in advance. I think you have already memorized the lines. Before starting to read the script, I want to say one thing. How is the villa we are in now? The origin, I think you have also discovered that the villa is fine during the day, but when the sun goes down, it looks very eerie and scary. But if you walk around, you will find that there are no people in the first four or five villas. Why is that? ? Because this villa is a famous haunted house!"

Meng Ran's face was a little stiff.

She just told Shi Jiayue a story.

But looking at Director Zeng's appearance now, it is obvious that he wants to tell them a story.

Not contrary to her expectations, Shi Jiayue had already hugged her arm nervously, trembling slightly, Director Zeng looked at the faces of everyone but suddenly smiled,
"But what we want to shoot is a ghost film, and a haunted house is good. I don't choose it if it's not a haunted house. A haunted house has a strong sense of reality, and it's not so troublesome to do special effects in post-production. Otherwise, we can finish it in a studio. I've heard There is a common saying, "Talking about ghosts at night, people are listening to ghosts."

Director Zeng made a joke,

"But it's broad daylight now, so you don't have to be afraid."

The joke is not funny at all.

Except for Director Zeng who laughed a few words, none of the others laughed. They all looked at Director Zeng with a cold condemnation. Director Zeng was neither angry nor embarrassed, and continued to talk,

"Although I didn't investigate in advance, I still checked the information about this villa. It is said that one summer more than 20 years ago, this villa won a family of five to vacation here. It turned out that the summer was very hot. A row of villas are full of people, everyone’s air conditioners are on, all kinds of electrical appliances are in use, the power is too high, and the weather is dry, so on a certain day this villa caught fire.”

"Five members of this family were burnt to death inside. Later, the relatives of the owner of the villa inherited the villa and thought it was an unlucky place, so they wanted to sell the villa. As a result, the people who came to investigate had nightmares after returning and dared not buy again. , or it is very unlucky, this is not going well, that is not going well, the master is all because of the bad luck brought by this villa. As a result, the villa has never been sold, and it has become a famous haunted house."

"And the residents around it may have been affected, or they may be afraid. Gradually, no one came to live there. Of course, there is also a saying that all five members of the family were killed, and there was a vicious murderer. The criminal fled to this place, broke into the villa and killed a family of five, and lit another fire to destroy the evidence."

"The notice from the police has not been made public, which shows doubts. There is a news that the power of this place suddenly increased around the time of the incident, and the power line was blown directly. There are various coincidences. The big fire, it is clear that the murderer did it deliberately, and used this method to get away with it, and he has not been caught so far. Then—"

He looked at the crowd and said,

"I also heard a saying that murderers have a kind of obsession, and they will come back to see their own murder scenes. They are very proud of their works, thinking that the murdered and the police are a bunch of idiots, and he easily put these People are playing with the applause. You said, if we suddenly come to this villa to shoot, will we attract the murderer?"

After speaking, he couldn't help laughing himself.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, without speaking.

It is impossible to say that you are not afraid, but if you are afraid, you have fallen into Director Zeng's tricks?

For a moment no one spoke.
