Chapter 97: A Show in Hand

Liu Shishi reached out and tapped the assistant on the head twice:”You need to change the way you address me. Brother Qi is the director in the crew. You can either follow me and call me Brother Qi, or you can call me Brother Qi. Anyway, you can’t be so rude and call me by my name!”

The assistant was a little stunned when he heard this, and then nodded quickly

Xiao Wen nodded and said,”Sister Shishi is right! This is a film crew, the director must have the highest authority, don’t keep calling him Li Qi Li Qi! You can call me boss like I do, or call me director, that’s fine too! But you can’t call me Li Qi!””

The assistant might be confused about other things, but she understood this matter immediately, and said,”Don’t worry, Sister Shishi, Brother Qi was too nice to me before, so I didn’t respect my elders. I will pay attention!”

It was 11:30 in the morning, on a sunny day, the sun in late August was scorching hot.

Xiaowen led the two of them inside and soon saw the crew’s shooting scene. Almost every crew member was exposed to the scorching sun and sweating profusely, but everyone was concentrating and holding their breath, working seriously.

This is a small courtyard with a Jiangnan style, with lush flowers and trees in the courtyard.

Two classical beauties in ancient costumes were talking in the courtyard, with the 960 microphone held high above their heads. Three cameras were also pointed at them, two of which were close-ups of the characters, and one was a medium shot. Except for the photographer, all other staff members were holding their breath outside the venue.

The actors who play the characters in the play are Gao Yuanyuan and Na Xiaozha, who are talking to each other

“He was clearly a soft-hearted person! He actually listened to the words of that Maoshan Taoist priest!”

“Xiaoqing!”

Before Liu Shishi and the others who had just followed Xiaowen in understood the plot, someone behind the camera shouted

“Click!”

It’s that familiar voice

Then, several people looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Li Qi had stood up.

He walked towards the actors and said,”Everyone, take a five-minute break.”

All the staff on site breathed a sigh of relief, and the first thing they did was to wipe their sweat off.

At this time, Li Qi, who also had sweat on his forehead, seemed to be unaware of the heat. He walked in front of the two actresses, asked someone to quickly bring a fan (bcdd), and fanned the two actresses fiercely.

The wind made their clothes flutter, making them look like fairies. However, Li Qi left the fan’s coverage area and stood to one side. He watched the two actors wipe their sweat and said,”It still feels a little off. Xiaoqing’s feeling shouldn’t be complete anger, but anger mixed with a hint of hatred for not fighting. As for White Snake, at this time, she should not only have the demeanor of an elder sister and be able to calm her younger sister, but she shouldn’t show any anxiety at all!”

After a pause, he saw the two actors nodded, and then continued:”First, White Snake is not afraid of the Maoshan Taoist priest, she is confident and confident! Second, she knew from the beginning what kind of person Xu Xian was, and the person she loved was just such a person. Kind, kind from the heart, but very ordinary. Although a little bookish, he is actually an ordinary person!”

“In this play, it is precisely because of the omnipotence and wisdom of the White Snake, and the fact that Xu Xian is so ordinary, sometimes even inferior to ordinary men, that the love between them is so admirable and touching! Of course, Xu Xian’s persistence in this love and his inner courage are also his shining points, but in essence, he is indeed an ordinary person.”

“So, the White Snake loves such an ordinary person. When Xu Xian did something that ordinary people would do, how could she be anxious? In her heart, she was considerate, although a little helpless.”

There were 20 or 30 crew members around, but although everyone was busy fanning themselves and wiping their sweat, some were whispering, and some simply hid at the outermost edge to smoke, but basically no one spoke loudly, obviously wanting to leave a quiet environment for the director who was explaining the play and the two leading actresses.

Liu Shishi and the others stood on the periphery, staring intently at Li Qi over there, while listening to him patiently explaining the play to the two actors.

Unconsciously, Liu Shishi’s nerves, which had been tense since she learned that Li Qi had really invested in filming, gradually relaxed a lot. Once her mind relaxed, her movements also relaxed.

So, while the play was still being discussed, Li Qi hadn’t even realized that she had arrived. The tension and anxiety on Liu Shishi’s face had actually faded a lot.

When Li Qi talked with the two actors for a while, turned around, clapped his hands, and asked everyone to take their seats, Liu Shishi curled her lips and couldn’t help turning her head to say to Xiaowen and the assistant,”It’s quite presentable!”

Xiaowen raised her eyebrows and responded in a low voice:”Of course!”

After a pause, seeing that Li Qi didn’t pay any attention to this side. Xiao Wen was communicating with the director of photography Ning Hao. She raised her wrist to check her watch, turned her head and said to Liu Shishi and the assistant,”It’s probably time for lunch after this shot. The lunch delivery person will probably be here soon. I have to go to the door and keep an eye on them. You guys?”

Liu Shishi didn’t wait for her to finish and said directly:”I’ll take a look here!”

Seeing this, the assistant did not dare to speak loudly. She turned her head and saw that Li Qi had already sat down behind the monitor and the camera was ready. She whispered,”I’ll go help Xiaowen.” Then she ran after Xiaowen. (To read the exciting novels, go to Fulu Novel Network!)

Surprisingly, Liu Shishi didn’t say anything, but turned her head and stared at the director’s chair behind the camera monitor. And now, the Li Qi who appeared in Liu Shishi’s eyes was still so quiet, taciturn, and calm. Even if the shooting was not going smoothly, his tone was soothing, and there was no”a little anxious” look as Xiaowen said!

But he had a play in his hands!

A drama with an investment said to be as high as 35 million!

And now, based on what she saw and heard with her own eyes, Liu Shishi had a very strange feeling, that is: although he was a rookie, Li Qi seemed to have directly entered the state of director!

The current crew and the current set seem to be stumbling and not going smoothly, but they can feel that it is only because the crew is still in the running-in period![]

In fact, the entire crew and the entire play are in Li Qi’s hands!

Moreover, he held it firmly!
