Chapter 442 Leeches
“Ah!!!”
Sun Li’s frightened screams echoed throughout the set, and even the originally peaceful pool water in the terraces was stirred by her sharp voice. There are slight waves.
That calls out HIGH-C.
Teacher Sun is a dancer by training.
There are several dancers around Zhang Yuan.
Liu Qianqian, Liu Shishi, Chen Zihan...
Because of the physical advantages brought by dancing, let’s not talk about the temperament advantages.
These girls who started practicing dancing when they were children all have one thing in common.
Can resist!
Because dancing is a very painful, boring, and often injured career.
Sprains, scrapes and strains are all too common.
It is common to practice an action dozens or hundreds of times.
The pain when stretching and stretching my legs is also unbearable.
So on the set, most of these actresses with dance background are naturally more able to endure hardships than ordinary girls.
After shooting several scenes more than ten times, they have developed enough patience in daily dance training.
I was injured while filming a fight scene. I have a lot of old injuries on my body, and I have long been used to it.
Working intensively for more than ten hours every day, the intensity of rehearsals before the performance is no less intense than this.
These women are still somewhat strong and stubborn at heart.
But I saw leeches covering my legs.
And it is also the local specialty Phnom Penh Leech.
This leech is more than twice the size of ordinary field leeches.
No girls, or even boys can’t stand it.
The egg-laying period of leeches is from June to October. They will be particularly active during this period, and now they are stuck in this period.
“Quick, quick, help!”
The executive director on the side was responsible for chores on the set, so he rushed forward when he saw this.
After Sun Li screamed a few times, her stubbornness still made her suppress her voice, forcing her voice down in her throat.
The executive director's claws were numb and he wanted to reach out to handle it, but he didn't dare to touch it.
Just like how people in the north can easily crush cockroaches in their hometown, they will still be confused when they see a flying black cockroach in the south.
This physical discomfort is hard to resist.
"Here comes someone, help pull it down!"
Although the executive director is mainly responsible for execution, he still has a little power with the title of director.
Under his command, several stage management brothers squatted down very reluctantly, and they were about to take action.
Sun Li closed her eyes and gritted her teeth, as if she was going to be stabbed.
Those fingers were trembling, and their hearts were trembling.
But just when they were about to touch each other, a sharp sound interrupted their movements ruthlessly.
“Slow down!”
Zhang Yuan pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.
"Tsk..."
Even when he saw the fat leeches on his legs, his heart tightened.
This is a natural physiological discomfort that cannot be resisted.
“You can’t pull out a leech by force!”
“If you pull it out by force, it will break the skin and bleed, and even leave scars.”
When Sun Li heard that there were scars, her teeth needed it. Tighter.
Although I am not a sexy or idol-oriented person, I am still a young girl, and having a bunch of scars on my legs will not look good after all.
"And if the leech is stimulated by external force, it may burrow into the wound."
"If it burrows into the skin, it will be even more troublesome!"
Sun Li heard it and said again Thinking about these golden and black molluscs getting into his legs, he shuddered all over.
If I hadn’t gritted my teeth, I would have screamed again now.
“What should we do?” Director Yu Rentai was also worried.
What he was anxious about was not Sun Li's physical condition.
But if Sun Li's problem is not solved, the crew will be embarrassed here.
As for Li Lianjie, he had signed an hourly contract. If something unexpected happened during filming and wasted time, he would not care about it and would still get off work on time.
“Use salt to stimulate, the leech will fall off on its own when encountering salt.”
Zhang Yuan frowned.
"Salt, salt, find salt quickly!" the director shouted.
But this is a film set, not a meal. There are no ordinary homes within a kilometer radius, so where does the salt come from?
You can find salt, but you have to go a long way to find a canteen.
"Why don't we send him to the hospital?" the assistant director came up with a bad idea.
Yu Rentai rolled his eyes at him.
Send him to the hospital for this little problem?
How can any actor be sent to the hospital after suffering such a minor injury? No matter how depraved our film and television industry is, it will not be like this.
Human thinking is limited by the times. For example, if the current director breaks his skull, he would not think that in the future, a little fresh meat could call an ambulance if his finger is broken...
The key is Yu Rentai thinking.
This scene still has to be filmed, and people still have to go to the terraces.
how?
Should I be sent to the hospital without taking a single shot?
There was a crowd of people around, but for five or six minutes, no salt was found.
Zhang Yuanyan and the others were in a mess and had no clue.
Xin Shuo said that the big crew is indeed composed of a mob.
Although they look aggressive, they are actually a more advanced grass-roots team.
After turning around and taking a few glances, he picked up something from a corner next to the folding chair in the rest area, and then hurried to Sun Li's side.
"Don't move." Zhang Yuan squatted down and whispered to the other party.
"What are you going to do!" Sun Li glanced at the thing in his hand, her expression tightened, and she shrank back.
She saw Zhang Yuan holding a mineral water bottle with half of it cut off. Judging from the shape, it should be Wahaha.
But it doesn’t matter what brand.
The important thing is that there is water in this bottle.
The water inside was brown and black, and exuded an unpleasant smell.
And there are a lot of wrinkled and blackened cigarette butts floating in the water.
This is a trick used by the old smokers among the crew to put out cigarette butts.
After all, you can't throw cigarette butts around.
Not only does it damage the environment, it is also easy to get involved.
When the wind blew the cigarette butt around, it rolled in front of the camera and was discovered by the director. He had to be scolded.
“What else can I do? Pour it on your lap.” Zhang Yuan replied, holding up the bottle.
"Such a dirty thing..." Sun Li's eyes widened in horror.
"Not only is it dirty, it's also exciting." Zhang Yuan put his hand on the other person's shoulder: "But leeches are afraid of stimulation."
"You believe me, and you have no better choice now."< br>
Sun Li was stunned for a second or two, thinking that although she had not been in contact with Zhang Yuan for a long time.
But in terms of brains and abilities, he is already the strongest among his peers she has ever seen.
Seeing the other person's firm eyes again, he nodded vigorously and believed what the other person said.
Zhang Yuan looked at the other party in agreement, and then carefully poured the dark yellow cigarette butt water with a peculiar smell on her calf where the leech lay.
The liquid slipped from the bottle and splashed onto the fat soft insects.
In just a few seconds, those leeches trembled and twisted their bodies, as if they had cramps. After swinging a few times in succession, they let go of their mouths weakly.
Bah, bah...
Immediately, there was a soft sound of objects falling on the muddy ground.
Sun Li, who had turned away just now, opened her eyes and took a look.
The bugs that made her feel sick and frightened had all fallen off at this time, leaving only a few bright red tiny wounds on her white calves.
Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows at her.
What do you think, you still have to listen to me.
【Received thanks from Sun Li, +1 for acting skills and +1 for dance basics! 】
"Yo yo yo, it's so awesome!"
"That's okay!"
"Okay, hey!"
The staff on the side were amazed after seeing it.
“I said it’s not a bad thing for us to smoke!” A cameraman quickly took out his cigarette case to cheer everyone up.
"That's right, smoke more."
"I think just because of this, the crew has to reimburse us for cigarette money, all for work."
Several old smokers immediately started beeping It beeped.
Everyone smokes or drinks. They can do anything to suit their own interests.
A few years ago during SARS, some people said that smokers were less susceptible to infection because their lungs were used to it and had resistance.
It is also said that to prevent infection, you must drink alcohol, and it must be high alcohol, because alcohol can kill bacteria...
Anyway, these people will do anything to smoke and drink, and they can find any excuse.
Zhang Yuan reached out and pulled Sun Li up from the ground.
"Many, thank you..." Teacher Sun covered her chest, still feeling frightened.
“Scared me to death.”
Teacher Sun is from a working-class family in Shanghai. He grew up in the city. How had he ever seen this before?
"It's finally solved. I never want to experience the feeling just now."
Sun Li said happily.
"It's okay, you have to go down later." Zhang Yuan reminded with a smile.
Sun Li:! ! !
Nonsense, the movie still has to be filmed, and of course we have to go to the paddy fields.
Not only did she have to get off, Li Lianjie also had to get off, and the other co-stars couldn't escape either.
However, she was the only female actor who got into the water, so the director also came up to comfort her.
But the show has to be filmed after all.
Zhang Yuan looked like this and whispered a few words to his assistant Zhao Jue, and the other person ran away.
After a long while, the assistant took some things and returned to the set out of breath.
Sun Li is doing some psychological construction at the moment.
"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."
"It's just a bug." "It's okay."
Zhang Yuan felt funny.
My heart says that women are women, and they are indeed less courageous.
Then when he turned around, he saw Li Lianjie, who was about to go into the water for filming soon, also muttering with his eyes closed.
"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid...it's just insects..."
Zhang Yuan:...
no!
You are an international kung fu superstar!
Oh, no matter how good your skills are, you are still afraid of kitchen knives, right?
Zhang Yuan was speechless for a while and came to Sun Li's side.
“Don’t panic.”
Sun Li put on a smile when she saw him coming forward.
"Thanks to you just now, but I still have a little psychological shadow now."
"You have to think so." Zhang Yuan provided her with an idea.
“The crew just asks you to stand in the water, which is just up to your knees.”
“The most bugs crawl on your legs.”
"It's better than having your whole body soaked in water."
Sun Li trembled when she imagined that her whole body was soaked in water and covered with leeches.
If a cunning leech goes to a more private place...
Sun Li looked at Zhang Yuan: "You are really good at comforting people."
" You’re welcome.”
Sun Li: ...
"Just kidding." Zhang Yuan scratched his head, and then took a long roll of objects from the assistant's hand.
“Hey, I’ll give you a good thing.”
Sun Li was stunned and found that the other party gave her a roll of plastic wrap.
"On the legs."
Sun Li was still stunned, wondering why she gave me this thing.
As soon as she heard Zhang Yuan's words, she immediately understood.
The eyes are shining and the corners of the mouth are raised.
“Oh!”
[Received a thank you from Sun Li, +1 for dancing skills! 】
She smiled and secretly gestured OK to Zhang Yuan, then ran to the corner and wrapped herself in several layers.
When filming started again, Sun Li confidently jumped into the water.
There is no psychological burden.
“Brother Zhang Yuan, you are so smart.” Zhao Juexuan praised his boss from the side: “You came up with such a good idea.”
“Little tricks, not worth mentioning.”
Zhang Yuan was so proud of himself that he heard director Yu Rentai shouting loudly.
"Sun Li, what is that on your leg!"
Cling film is a plastic product after all.
After being wrapped around the body, it is not obvious to the naked eye, but in the camera, Sun Li's calves reflect light, which is very strange.
It didn’t take long for him to be discovered by the director.
"I..."
"Come here!" The director called her to his side and lowered his body to take a look.
“Cling wrap?”
“Who taught you to do this?”
“We are filming, do you think we are playing house!”
Sun Li shrank from being scolded.
He glanced in Zhang Yuan's direction, then lowered his head.
"I thought of it myself, I'm sorry, director."
Zhang Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief. This person was quite honest and didn't confess to himself.
“Tear it up quickly, don’t affect the shooting.”
At this moment, Li Lianjie also crawled out of the water, with a bug on his calf.
His assistant quickly tore open the prepared salt bag and sprinkled some on it, and the leeches immediately fell out.
“Hey, young people are timid and cannot bear hardships.”
“People like us back then had to endure no matter how hard or tiring they were.”
>"Just bear with it, it's not a big deal."
Zhang Yuan listened to Lao Li's standard middle-aged male speech and thought to himself that you are showing off now.
Who was saying "Don't be afraid" just now?
Sun Li had no choice but to tear off the plastic wrap and bravely returned to the paddy field again.
There are several scenes of planting rice in the terraced fields, and it could not be finished in one day.
Sun Li, who had been busy until the evening, sprinkled an unknown amount of salt on her legs and dropped many leeches, came to the rest area with a tired face.
When she saw Zhang Yuan nearby, talking on the phone, she walked over and waited.
“Okay, okay.”
“Have the flights been booked?”
“I understand.”
“Who else is going with us? ?”
"Oh, Yuanyuan, Qin Hao, right? I understand."
"See you in Cannes in a few days."
Putting down the phone, Zhang Yuan turned around and saw the tired belt Laughing Sun Li.
“You’re going to Cannes?”
“Yes, a film I shot before is in the selection, so I’m going to attend the red carpet.” Zhang Yuan joked.
Sun Li's eyes showed envy.
That's Cannes, and there's nothing an actor wouldn't want to go to.
Being able to go, regardless of whether I win an award or not, is already a big deal.
He was quite modest, saying that he was there for the red carpet...
"Congratulations."
"You're welcome."
"I'll treat you to dinner tonight. I relied on your help just now."
"I didn't help, and you were scolded by the director."
"This is later, you helped before." Sun Li was very polite to him before, a little too polite.
"Then I have to thank you for not confessing me."
"Hahaha, how could it be possible? That's too unethical."
The two looked at each other and smiled, feeling like they had done bad things together and understood each other tacitly. .
Therefore, we are obviously much closer.
"Okay, the mushroom chicken soup yesterday was good."
"I heard there is also mushroom hot pot."
"Okay, let's eat this."
The two of them walked and chatted, then went to eat.
Evening.
The contract Li Lianjie signed included a night scene, so he did not return to the hotel today.
Zhang Yuan, him and Yuan Hepin gathered together to study how to shoot the fight scene.
"Huo Yuanjia's most famous kung fu is Mizong Quan, and the Huo family is also good at the secret Baji Quan." Lao Li said.
Mizong Quan, also known as Secret Fist, is a practical martial art.
Not only boxing, but also swordsmanship, horse fighting skills, etc.
“I used partial Baji and through-arm routines, which are more vigorous and look good in the photos.” Li Lianjie said.
“In your case, just use the local Xiangxiang boxing of the Yunnan family, which is more in line with the local characteristics.”
"And you know the Eagle Claw. The Elephant Boxing also has Eagle Fist, Longquan, Fire Dragon Claw and other skills in common."
"In this way, you can combine your own characteristics with the needs of the plot."< br>
Li Lianjie saw that he was good at martial arts during the day and liked him very much, so he took special care of him and designed fighting routines that were convenient for him to show off.
"Okay, let's do a trick first?"
"Hey, no need, we are all experts, what else can we do." Li Lianjie waved his hand.
"Just make some rough gestures."
"Then just express yourself freely."
Yuan Hepin was listening.
He glanced at Zhang Yuan.
“JET actually agreed to come directly with him and act on the spot.”
"That means you recognize the other person's ability."
"At least I think his level is not bad, otherwise I wouldn't be so decisive."
Just like Wu Jing.
Whether it is Donnie Yen or Hung Kam-bo, when they are filming fighting scenes, they are all direct and do not use any tricks.
It’s because everyone knows that Wu Jing is very skilled and can improvise.
Ordinary people can't come yet.
That’s why Master Ba knew that Li Lianjie did this because he recognized his strength.
Otherwise, I am not afraid of hurting you, but I am afraid of hurting myself.
After getting ready, the two rehearsed a little and started performing in front of the camera.
Zhang Yuan raised his fist, used a move similar to the eagle claw, combined with some Shaolin boxing moves, and rushed past Old Li.
Boom!
After a muffled sound.
Li Lianjie fell straight back.
I heard a thump and fell to the ground.
Zhang Yuan:……
Director:...
Film crew:...
