As the exchange deepened, the two people's emotions became more and more intense.
Wu Yong made a prompt decision and proposed to go directly to the Forbidden City in the afternoon to start filming the MV.
This sudden proposal made Lu Bai a little surprised: "Can we shoot in the afternoon? Don't we need to apply in advance?"
Wu Yong explained with a smile: "The documentary "Forbidden City" was jointly produced by our TV station and the Palace Museum. Therefore, we have the permission to film it."
After hearing this, Lu Bai suddenly realized, and the doubts in his heart suddenly disappeared.
Without further ado, Wu Yong quickly gathered his team members and the group drove to the Forbidden City.
The afternoon sun shines on the red walls and yellow tiles of the Forbidden City, adding a sense of mystery and solemnity to this historic palace.
Under the leadership of Wu Yong, the shooting team carried professional equipment and entered this royal forbidden land full of historical heritage.
Wu Yong shuttled between the palaces enthusiastically, pointing out to the team his ideal shooting angles and scenes.
At the same time, Lu Bai carefully appreciated every inch of the Forbidden City's masonry with curiosity and awe.
This was his first time visiting the Forbidden City in person, and everything here made him feel extremely novel and shocking.
On the other side, Wu Yong has begun to order the staff to arrange shooting positions and debug equipment in an orderly manner to ensure that every detail is flawless.
When everything was ready, Wu Yong explained the plot concept of this MV to Lu Bai in detail.
The two are immersed in the world of creation and look forward to the upcoming filming work together.
Wu Yong said concisely and clearly: "Your task is very simple. You only need to sing your heart out in front of the palace, and leave the rest to me."
"Understood." Lu Bai nodded, with a trace of expectation in his eyes.
"Ready, the drone can take off." Team members reported.
"Very good, then everyone pays attention, start shooting!" With Wu Yong's order, the shooting work officially started.
The drone slowly took off, overlooking the magnificent architectural complex of the Forbidden City. Everyone was deeply attracted by this shocking sight.
The camera travels through every corner of the Forbidden City, carefully capturing the imprint of history and the wonderful images conceived by Lu Bai.
The entire shooting scene was filled with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation, and everyone was focused on creating an unforgettable MV masterpiece.
The first thing that catches the eye is the main entrance of the Forbidden City. The sunlight pours on the vermilion door, reflecting the dazzling brilliance.
Lu Bai stood in front of the main hall and sang affectionately, as if he was telling these touching chapters about the years to this ancient palace.
As the singing sings melodiously, the camera slowly moves forward, showing the magnificent buildings inside the Forbidden City one by one.
Wu Yong, who was staring at every picture in front of the monitor, nodded in praise from time to time.
Although Lu Bai is not a professional actor, every position he stands in appropriately presents the best perspective.
For Lu Bai, shooting the MV is undoubtedly a brand new attempt.
This was completely different from his previous experience of recording songs. Recording songs was a piece of cake for him, but shooting the MV made him feel unprecedented challenges and exhaustion.
Every lyric and every picture needs to be carefully designed and strive to be perfectly presented.
Lu Bai not only has to pay attention to his own singing status, but also needs to work closely with the surrounding environment, props and co-actors.
For example, when filming a scene showing an atmosphere of loneliness and contemplation, he stood in a corner of the Forbidden City, with desolate ancient trees and weathered brick walls behind him.
In order to achieve the desired effect, he must accurately convey the complex emotions in his expression, while ensuring that his body blends harmoniously with the surrounding environment without leaving any sense of abruptness.
Although Wu Yong has no special requirements for Lu Bai's acting skills, Lu Bai himself is a person who pursues perfection and will never do anything perfunctory.
Each shot took far more than he expected.
Sometimes, a simple movement or expression needs to be redone just because of minor imperfections in lighting, angle, or overall atmosphere.
This made Lu Bai deeply understand the difficulty of shooting the MV.
However, he always maintains a high degree of concentration and enthusiasm, devoting himself wholeheartedly to the carving of every detail. Although the process was difficult, he enjoyed it.
……
Since noon, the hot and intense sunshine has enveloped the Forbidden City like a golden veil.
In this bright halo, Lu Bai and the filming team devoted themselves wholeheartedly, their clothes were soaked with sweat, but no one cared about them.
As time goes by, the afternoon sunlight gradually becomes softer and slants on the eaves and walls of the Forbidden City, creating beautiful and long shadows.
Lu Bai's figure shuttled between the light and shadow, and his singing seemed to be intertwined and integrated with the gradual light.
As the sun slowly sets in the west, the sky is dyed with brilliant colors of orange-red, purple-red and golden.
Against this gorgeous sunset, the outline of the Forbidden City looks even more solemn and solemn.
Lu Bai, on the other hand, was still performing with concentration, his eyes showing determination and persistence.
It wasn't until the red sun gradually sank into the horizon, leaving only a faint afterglow, that Wu Yong finally shouted the long-awaited "cut".
"The filming is finally finished." Lu Bai let out a long sigh of relief.
"Good boy, you have the potential to be an actor." Wu Yong handed Lu Bai a bottle of water and said with a smile, "Are you interested? I can introduce you to several directors."
Lu Bai took the water, took a big sip, and then said: "Actually, I did have an idea recently, and I wrote a drama and am about to start filming."
"Oh?" Wu Yong was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "You mean you voted for a script?"
"That's right." Lu Bai explained with a smile, "I wrote a script when I had nothing to do and wanted to try acting it out."
"Awesome!" Wu Yong gave a thumbs up and praised, "How many hidden skills do you have? You can sing, act, and write scripts. You are so versatile!"
After a brief conversation, Lu Bai politely declined Wu Yong's invitation to have dinner.
Since he had to take a flight back to Shanghai tonight, he could only make an appointment with Wu Yong to see him again next time.
"Next time you come to Yanjing, be sure to let me know in advance." Wu Yong's tone was very serious, as if he would cut off contact with Lu Bai if he was not invited.
Lu Bai smiled and nodded in agreement: "Director Wu, don't worry, I will definitely remember it."
After hearing this response, Wu Yong smiled with satisfaction.
In his opinion, whether it is the shooting of the song or the MV, he owes Lu Bai a favor.
If he can't repay something, he always feels guilty.
So, he patted Lu Bai on the shoulder and continued: "This cooperation is very pleasant. I look forward to us working together to create more wonderful works in the future."
Lu Bai responded: "That's natural. I feel very honored to be able to cooperate with you."
When the moment of separation arrived, Wu Yong watched Lu Bai's back drifting away until he disappeared from sight.
As Lu Bai embarked on his return journey, his heart was filled with emotions and memories of this experience.
At this moment, someone in the Magic City was staring at his phone intently, his heart full of anticipation.
The person she thought about day and night was finally about to appear in front of her.
Bai Lu sat by the window, her eyes wandering on the phone screen from time to time, and the smile on her lips could not be concealed.
Although the neon lights outside the window were dazzling, they were still not as bright as the expectant light in her eyes.
The time on the phone screen showed that it was 7:50 pm, and there was only about an hour left before Lu Bai's flight arrived.
Bai Lu had already dressed up carefully, wearing a beautiful and sexy little skirt, and was ready to go out to meet Lu Bai.
As Lu Bai's flight gradually approached the Magic City, Bai Lu's inner expectations became stronger.
She couldn't wait to meet the person she had longed for and share the joy and excitement of this moment with him. (End of chapter)
