This director is vindictive.

Chapter 154: Hemp ropes always break at the thinnest part, and misfortune always finds the unfortunate.

As the shooting progresses.

The domestic scenes have also reached a turning point, and the scene to be filmed today is one of the turning points.

The scene where Lu Shouyi commits suicide!

Wang Chuanjun has been preparing for this scene for two days.

He locked himself in the room, refusing to eat, drink or sleep.

The atmosphere on the set also began to become solemn. After all, this kind of play would make anyone feel uncomfortable watching it.

And this kind of atmosphere is also necessary.

Chen Mo has been silent these two days, and the crew members are also very cautious in doing things.

On the third day, when the scene was about to be filmed, Wang Chuanjun finally walked out of the room that had been closed for two days.

He scared everyone when he came out.

Two days doesn’t sound like a long time, but it was two days without eating, drinking or sleeping, and only occasionally moistening my dry lips.

Wang Chuanjun proved through his actions that two days is enough to change a person beyond recognition.

There was almost no color on his face, and he looked completely hollowed out. In fact, Chen Mo had never asked him to go to such an extreme level.

But in order to perform the play well, he took the initiative to ask to do so.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would not be able to portray the state of Lu Shouyi.

"Are you okay?" Chen Mo asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, director, we can start shooting." Wang Chuanjun seemed a little weak when he spoke, and he really gave people the feeling that he was terminally ill.

Of course, even so, you still need to put on makeup.

Soon, the scene began filming.

It was originally a very difficult scene, but with Wang Chuanjun's desperate work mode to find the right state, the scene was completed in only three takes.

"Pah, pah, pah!" When Chen Mo shouted, "Crack, this one passed!"

The people at the scene applauded spontaneously. This applause was a recognition of dedicated actors like Wang Chuanjun.

In fact, Wang Chuanjun really impressed Chen Mo in this play. In his previous life, he had only heard about it, but in this life, he saw it with his own eyes.

There was Tang Zhuo who broke his leg while dancing to play the role of a pole dancer, and there was Wang Chuanjun who ate six kilograms of steamed buns and hot dry noodles to play a meal scene well, and went without food and sleep for two days to get into the right state. When filming such scenes, everyone felt full of energy.

This kind of professionalism can easily infect people around you.

The filming of "Dying to Survive" is coming to an end.

However, the last scene also made Huang Bo and Tang Zhuo a little confused.

"Director, when Cheng Yong was finally released from prison, we understand that the others didn't come to pick him up, but why didn't Liu Sihui come either? Only my brother-in-law came?"

"Why did she come?" Chen Mo asked back.

This question also stumped Tang Zhuo and Huang Bo.

Yes, why did she come?
"First, there's no love between Liu Sihui and Cheng Yong. It's just a slight affection tied to their interests. They're both adults, so of course there's a chance something could happen. But if it didn't happen, she wouldn't praise Cheng Yong as a gentleman and let it evolve into love. Also, Liu Sihui has her own survival needs. She might occasionally think of Cheng Yong and feel a little moved, but she'd quickly be brought back to reality by her current husband asking, 'Is the child asleep?'"

“Secondly, our drama has nothing to do with love, because for a woman like Liu Sihui, that is too luxurious.

Liu Sihui's feelings for Cheng Yong, and Cheng Yong's feelings for Liu Sihui, are actually not as deep as you think.

Cheng Yong was drunk and eager to have sex with her, and she was ready. In fact, this was just a temporary desire, without too much personal emotion. Later, when the drug sales team was established, Liu Sihui's feelings for Cheng Yong were more of obedience and respect, and she also had no romantic feelings.

Finally, these are not the main points. The main point is that I hope to leave this ending for the audience to discuss and think about.

Because there are many possibilities, the cruelest one is that Sihui's daughter died painfully while Cheng Yong was serving his sentence because she did not get the medicine.

So, let's leave this question for everyone to discuss." Chen Mo explained.

Both of them were silent because what Chen Mo said was indeed too cruel.

But this is the most likely thing.

Being able to abandon shame and dignity at all costs can only mean that her daughter can't wait any longer! With Cheng Yong imprisoned, how long can Liu Sihui's daughter hold on?

Three years is too long.

Especially for patients.

In three years, many patients have passed away!

So three years later, there might still be patients still alive who miss Cheng Yong, but I'm afraid there are many more patients who have already passed away! And this huge group of patients may also include Liu Sihui's children!
The film also leaves a very obscure foreshadowing: Liu Sihui was once the group leader of many patients. Why did she become the leader of this group? Why was she so anxious to get the medicine? The only possible explanation is: her daughter's condition may be the most serious among all the patients!
Therefore, in the long process of searching for medicine and treating the disease, Liu Sihui paid a more painful price than many other patients. She should have been by her daughter's side to educate her growth, but in order to survive, she could only go to nightclubs to dance striptease, and even worked as a prostitute in secret!
The fact that she herself was willing to give up shame and dignity at all costs only meant that her daughter couldn't wait any longer! With Cheng Yong in jail, how long could Liu Sihui's daughter hold on?

But these are too cruel and not suitable to be shown on camera.

As for the other patients that Cheng Yong has helped, there is no need to mention them. To put it more bluntly, this group of leukemia patients are worried about their future survival every day. How much energy do you expect them to devote to paying attention to when an outsider will be released from prison?

Finally, after three months of filming, "Dying to Survive" was officially completed.

At the finals banquet.

Chen Mo took the initiative to toast Tang Zhuo and the other leading actors one by one.

"Don't worry, listen to me, I have seen all of your efforts in the filming of this drama. To be honest, you are the best and most dedicated actors I have ever worked with. Thank you for your contribution to this drama. This glass of wine should be toasted to you!" Chen Mo said, holding up the wine glass.

"Especially your sister Tang, please don't risk your life like this in the future!"

"And you, Wang Chuanjun, believe me, the role of Guan Gu Shenqi will only be one of the wonderful roles you have ever played, and the same goes for Lü Shouyi!"

"Zhang Yu."

Chen Mo sincerely admires these people. To be honest, if you ask him to do what Wang Chuanjun and Tang Zhuo did, Chen Mo thinks it would be difficult for him to do it.

After three rounds of drinks, they began to talk about their experiences of life, the people and things they met before filming.

Especially Tang Zhuo, Wang Chuanjun and Zhang Yu, the three of them can be said to be the most touched.

Because they have all met those real patients and even lived and ate with them for a period of time.

According to Wang Chuanjun, the reason why he works so hard is, on the one hand, for himself, and on the other hand, he hopes to be able to play such a role well, because he wants more people to see and know about this group.

They really have it so hard! Compared to them, what I do on the crew is really nothing.

"During the time I was in the hospital, I saw three patients pass away in just over a month. And the previous patient also passed away last month." Wang Chuanjun said, his eyes welling up involuntarily, and he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Tang Zhuo then said that the patients she came into contact with were somewhat similar to Liu Sihui. The person she came into contact with was not the patient himself, but the patient's mother, who was also a single mother. Compared with Liu Sihui in the play, at least she met Cheng Yong. At least for a period of time, she did not need to worry about her child's medicine. But in reality, that single mother could only grit her teeth and hold on.

"The person I was observing before was also a single mother."

"She had no confidence or hope for the future. She just wanted to endure one day at a time. She couldn't bear to see her child leave in such pain, so she gritted her teeth and persevered.

Her only fear is that her child will find out about her situation one day."

As Wang Chuanjun and Tang Zhuo spoke, the atmosphere at the scene also paused.

Everyone drank in silence, and the atmosphere became somewhat dull.

Chen Mo suddenly had an idea.

"Wang Chuanjun, Sister Tang, Zhang Yu, are you still in touch with the patients you met during your previous life experience?" Chen Mo asked.

"Have!"

"I have an idea. We can't really become a 'medicine hero' like Cheng Yong, nor can we help all patients, but at least we can help some of them," said Chen Mo.

"Director Chen, what do you mean?" Everyone looked at Chen Mo in surprise.

"My original intention in making this drama was, on the one hand, to show Cheng Yong's deeds, and on the other hand, I also hoped to influence some things through the movie. But these are just big aspects. Since our drama is about this group, I think it is right to give back. We can't help so many patients across the country, but at least, the people you meet while experiencing life have also contributed to our drama. So, I think we can take out a part of the proceeds from this drama to give back and help these people." Chen Mo said.

Chen Mo has always had a rather Buddhist attitude towards charity, and Shengshi Pictures has always been involved in it.

It's just that it's not that high-profile.

In fact, Chen Mo also knew, just like what Zhang Changlin said in the play, there is a disease in this world that cannot be cured by medicine, and that is poverty.

He certainly wouldn't be so saintly as to think he could help everyone, nor would he spend all his wealth on charity.

He is not that noble, but at least, since the drama "Dying to Survive" is based on this group, it is only natural to give back to them.

"Director Chen, I can use my salary to help them!" Huang Bo said.

"Me too!"

"Count me in!"

When everyone heard Chen Mo's words, they all spoke up.

Chen Mo shook his head and said, "You don't have to do this. I am very confident in the film 'Dying to Survive'. You can keep your pay. That's what you deserve. The crew will pay for it.

However, I hope we can help those in need rather than those in need, and choose the people we help from among those you get to know while experiencing life."

Chen Mo could actually ask these people to help promote the movie, but there was really no need.

He was very confident about this movie and had not thought about using any special way to promote it.

This movie is different from other movies before it. Although it also has commercial attributes, it is really not suitable for promotion in those fancy ways.

Of course, there is actually no need to do so, because Chen Mo and his movies at this moment are already attracting enough attention.

Just follow the steps and there is no need to worry.

Time flies, and the post-production of "Dying to Survive" is basically completed.

We have also been providing assistance to patients by providing them with funds to purchase medicines.

The main people doing the work are the leading actors of "Dying to Survive" and the team of Shengshi Pictures.

On this day, Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo met up and prepared to visit the family of the patient whom Tang Zhuo met when he was experiencing life.

Yes, not only the character Cheng Yong has a prototype, in fact, Liu Sihui's character also has a similar prototype.

The person they wanted to meet was called Xu Fang.

Similar to Liu Sihui, she also had a sick daughter. The difference was that her husband did not abandon them because of their daughter's illness, but died early in an accident.

Leaving behind an orphan and a widow, it turns out that the hemp rope always breaks at the thinnest part, and misfortune always finds its way to the unfortunate.

Not long after, her daughter was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia. She originally ran a convenience store, and she managed to get by while running the store and taking care of her daughter.

But after his daughter fell ill, the convenience store's business could no longer support the expensive medical expenses and sky-high drug costs.

So, I started dancing in nightclubs and doing some of that stuff secretly.

Arriving at the nightclub, Chen Mo saw Xu Fang, whom Tang Zhuo had mentioned, dancing enthusiastically on the stage, with many people cheering from the audience. He felt as if a movie had come true.

Neither Chen Mo nor Tang Zhuo went over, but watched quietly from a distance.

If people didn't know the truth, everyone would think that this single mother named Xu Fang was a veteran in the entertainment industry.

She moved with ease among the various guests.

Both Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo could see that she was being taken advantage of from time to time, but she didn't seem to care that much. Instead, she smiled and drank and flirted with the other party.

She looked drunk and dreamy, and no one could tell that this woman was a mother, a mother who loved her child deeply.

Perhaps in the eyes of those pleasure seekers, she was just a prostitute in the pleasure quarters.

She seemed to have gotten used to this kind of life.

But both of them seemed to be in a heavy mood.

Tang Zhuo may feel it more deeply, because the Liu Sihui she just played is so similar to this Xu Fang?
There is a famous saying on the Internet: "To lure a decent woman into the water, to persuade a prostitute to become a good woman."

But using it here at this moment makes people feel extremely heavy.

Xu Fang once had a happy family. If possible, she would run her own small shop even if she was alone with her children. She might not become rich, but at least she would have enough food and clothing.

But why did she fall to this point?
Everyone knows this because she is a mother! Everything is for her children.

But why has it come to this?

Chen Mo couldn't find the answer, he was just an ordinary man.

At this moment, he admired Cheng Yong even more, because he was a truly selfless person, and he was not!
Fortunately, although he cannot help everyone, at least he can help the person in front of him.

Not long after, Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo saw Xu Fang pulling a man away.

The two of them looked at each other and knew what she was going to do. However, neither of them looked at her with contempt, nor did they look at her with tinted glasses. They just felt a sense of sadness.

What's even sadder is that despite her efforts, she may not be able to change anything, but she still did it.

"Let's go!" Chen Mo said.

Because there is no need to continue reading.

Tang Zhuo nodded.

But at this moment, an accident happened.

Inside the noisy nightclub, the powerful and dynamic music suddenly stopped and the headlights were turned on.

The nightclub was in an uproar. "Police raid! Everyone, please stand still and don't run around! Stand still and don't run around!"

Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo looked at each other in surprise. Neither of them had expected that they would happen to be caught in a police raid.

Both of them didn't move, but when they looked at each other, they couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was really too much of a coincidence.

Chen Mo was also speechless. In his two lifetimes, this was the first time he encountered such a situation.

I wasn't panicking or anything, I just felt a little bit amused and helpless.

Suddenly, the two remembered Xu Fang who had just disappeared with the man, and they couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.

What Xu Fang did was naturally illegal, but neither Chen Mo nor Tang Zhuo said anything.

Soon, a police officer came over and both of them took out their ID cards.

Then I saw a group of men and women being brought out, including Xu Fang.

But she seemed to be used to it and didn't feel nervous or scared at all.

Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo lined up and left the nightclub, and saw media reporters waiting outside taking pictures of them.

Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo looked at each other and were speechless.

It is conceivable that tomorrow's entertainment news will definitely be explosive enough.

In fact, what Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo didn't know was that when they arrived, they had already been targeted by entertainment paparazzi.

Or maybe Chen Mo underestimated his own influence. Although he always thought of himself as just a director doing behind-the-scenes work, he couldn't help but realize that he was actually very famous. Many people didn't even really regard him as a director.

You know, although the number of professor fans has decreased a lot due to the fading popularity of "My Love from the Star", but because of the role of Professor Do, plus his performance and achievements over the years, his fans are not necessarily less than those of the stars.

He and Tang Zhuo came out together, and neither of them was disguised, so they were noticed immediately.

It was already big news for the entertainment reporter who was on surveillance to take pictures of Chen Mo and Tang Zhuo entering a nightclub together, not to mention that they were also caught in a surprise police inspection.

They also brought out so many men and women that the paparazzi who were following them were so excited that they almost went crazy.
