Chapter 531 Enhances the Mystery: Humans are Consumables
"To make the character more mysterious and unpredictable?" Jiang Hanying thought for a moment and nodded. "That works, but if we don't show our faces, what should we show?"

"Take photos of the back view, the side view, or only the lower half of the face, a pair of eyes, or a hand, or through a curtain or something, whatever way you want to increase the sense of mystery."

"Did my boyfriend's face offend you?"

The assistant director and several assistants standing nearby couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The director wiped his face, gave a wry smile, and, thinking of the girl's straightforward personality, said directly, "She didn't offend me, but she might offend the other male actors in this drama. Hanying, your boyfriend is already good-looking, but I didn't expect him to be even more outstanding in period costume. His appearance has overshadowed the other male actors who have more screen time than him. The other male actors will definitely have something to say about him."

Jiang Hanying nodded in agreement, accepting all the compliments that praised her master's good fortune.

"So you think he's too good-looking, which is why you're planning to change the filming to not show his face?"

"Uh, yes."

"Why didn't you just say that from the beginning?"

The director watched with a sense of melancholy as Jiang Hanying turned and left.

So, is it because he expressed himself too tactfully?

After lunch, the crew officially began filming for the day.

The thick fog outside showed no signs of dissipating. Although the filming was being done indoors, people were coming and going, and the doors were usually left open, bringing in a lot of damp and cold fog as they went in and out.

Jiang Hanying was acting opposite Yuan Chaoyu, who was standing face to face. Just as she was getting into the mood, she saw the person standing opposite her suddenly sway in place and then fall straight backward.

Even though Yuan Chaoyu's assistant, who was standing outside the camera's view, reacted quickly and rushed over immediately, it was too late.

Jiang Hanying swallowed back the lines she was about to say, stepped forward, grabbed Yuan Chaoyu's arm, and pulled him back.

Noticing that the person was about to faint and was subconsciously waving his hand in resistance, he tightened his grip and whispered a reminder: "There are muddy footprints all over the ground behind you."

The resistance paused for a moment and then relaxed. Yuan Chaoyu then closed his eyes, pursed his lips, and leaned against Jiang Hanying.

Just then, Yuan Chaoyu's assistant rushed over and took the person from him. "Thank you, Teacher Jiang, thank you!"

Jiang Hanying released her grip and took a step back. "It wasn't me who made her faint from anger."

"I know, I know. It's because the young lady caught a cold yesterday and didn't sleep well all night. And with the weather today... that's why she couldn't hold on."

This was an explanation to Jiang Hanying, and also to the director who was watching the monitor next door.

After hearing the real reason for the fainting, Jiang Hanying raised an eyebrow and watched as the assistant half-helped, half-carried Yuan Chaoyu out of the room.

With the female lead absent, filming had to be temporarily suspended.

Jiang Hanying returned to her resting place, took the thermos cup handed to her by Pei Yuan, and had just taken a sip of water when she turned around and saw her cheap owner walking in from outside the door.

He stood up, holding the cup, and went to greet her.

"Why are you here? I didn't have any scenes scheduled for you today."

"The director said we could come and observe first."

"Then you won't be able to watch it now. The female lead just fainted while filming with me, and we don't know if she's awake yet."

"Yuan Chaoyu?" "Yes." Seeing that Pei Yuan had thoughtfully closed the door behind her when she left, Jiang Hanying continued, "I was just thinking, her brother is suffering on the mountain right now, trying to obtain the Stone Embryo Sutra. Could it be that she is also feeling the same way?"

Li Chengxiao took the thermos cup she handed him, took a sip to moisten his throat, and after hearing this, said, "It's not impossible."

Jiang Hanying looked at her cheap master in front of her and blinked lightly. "If that's really the case, then I think I know why Yuan Chaoyu became the eldest daughter of the Yuan family."

That bastard is not human at all!

This has left her unable to film anything right now!

The once-in-a-century dense fog that appeared in the Queshan area has made it into the weather news. However, if you had an instrument to look down from high altitude, you would find that the towns at the foot of Queshan are nothing compared to those on the mountain.

The white mist floated on the surface of my body as if it were a real substance. It was as if my eyes had suddenly developed cataracts. Not to mention seeing other people and things, even seeing my own hands became blurry and double-imaged, not to mention the brightness.

The key point is that these white mists seem to have weight. The people in the group were originally walking upright, but without realizing it, they became hunched over, as if they were carrying an invisible white monster on their backs.

For the first time in his life, Duanmu Sen felt regret.

He had thought this industry would be difficult, but he never imagined it would be this difficult.

I thought that after walking through the wind and snow all night, I had already reached the highest level of difficulty.

Unexpectedly, this fog, which was many times denser than the snowstorm, came again during the day.

He followed the footsteps in front of him like a blind man, not daring to relax his ears for even a moment. If he couldn't hear where he was stepping, and took a wrong step, he would be left behind those teammates whose fates were unknown.

"Pfft!"

Hearing the sound coming from not far ahead, Duanmu Sen stretched his neck and swallowed hard, thinking: Another one!
When he heard Yuan Qingzhuo calmly give up on the first person yesterday, he felt a little reluctant.

Others may not know, but he knows it very well.

The subordinates trained by Yuan Qingzhuo who came up the mountain with him this time are all extremely valuable, and the resources consumed in the training process are incalculable.

If you put them out there, they could make a name for themselves in any field.

But inside, they are just one consumable item after another.

He was initially puzzled. Wouldn't it be easier to keep secrets if there were fewer people involved? Why bring so many people up the mountain when you only need to bring a few to accompany and take care of them?

Now I understand that these were all stepping stones, or perhaps to help ward off disaster.

The appearance of two flashing red lights in the fog is a signal to rest and replenish energy on the spot.

Duanmu Sen had long since stopped caring about his image. After groping around to make sure he was safe, he sat down on the spot, pulled down his mask, grabbed a handful of snow that looked relatively clean, and ate it. After easing his parched throat, he opened an energy bar and ate it in a few bites.

The others in the team were in a similar situation, quietly finishing their replenishment and resting quietly. Although their bodies were extremely exhausted, they couldn't actually fall asleep.

Once you fall asleep, you may never wake up again.

After resting for about fifteen minutes, without the need for a red light prompt, the line quietly got ready, stood up, and continued to queue.

Duanmu Sen walked forward in a daze in the middle of the group, looking at the white surroundings that seemed to stretch endlessly.

For a moment, he felt as if he wasn't going up a mountain, but walking the road to the underworld.
