Chapter 154 Goodbye Qingdao, Filming of "Lost in Qingdao" begins (88) Please vote for me!

During a break in Xuzhou.

Shen Shandeng returned to his hometown, but only stayed for two days to visit his elders before continuing his journey to his next stop, Wuhan.

Along the way.

Shen Shandeng found that communication and coordination with various regions went unexpectedly smoothly.

His initial concerns gradually dissipated, and he suddenly understood that in this era, while he worried about the lack of cooperation from local authorities, the local authorities were perhaps even more worried that he, a renowned director, would deliberately choose dirty and chaotic corners to film, thus tarnishing the local image.

The involvement of China Film Group eliminated the trust barrier between the two parties, and the discovery that Shen Shandeng only chose to shoot good projects turned into a win-win situation.

The film's preparation speed has been greatly accelerated.

"Giving this share isn't a bad deal; at least it saves us a lot of trouble."

Shen Shandeng gazed out the car window at the Central Plains rushing past, pondering to himself.

The year was 2008.

In January, before the New Year's atmosphere had fully unfolded, the southern sky suddenly changed its face.

Shen Shandeng has just finished coordinating location shooting in Wuhan and Changsha.

No sooner had the team left Changsha than a massive snowstorm, the worst in decades, swept across central and southern China, with Changsha being one of the hardest-hit areas.

1 month 13 day.

Heavy snow mixed with freezing rain enveloped Changsha and the entire south in a frozen, silvery blanket.

Traffic was paralyzed, the power grid was in crisis, and countless travelers eager to return home were stranded at stations, airports, and highways, posing a severe test to people's livelihoods.

Shen Shandeng did not return to Beijing, but instead remained in Qingdao to formally assemble the film crew and begin filming.

Upon seeing the footage in the news, he immediately assembled his team of screenwriters.

"The script needs some adjustments," Shen Shandeng said, pointing to the television screen.

The images in the news were heartbreaking, but what was even more moving was the government's swift response and the mobilization of the entire society.

Provinces and cities across the country urgently opened donation points for ice storm relief, and people from government officials to ordinary citizens donated generously.

Countless power maintenance workers risked their lives to repair power lines in the freezing cold, carrying heavy loads on their shoulders and in their hands, bringing light and warmth back to every household.

Large numbers of armed police officers took to the streets to clear snow and ice and direct traffic.

Their young faces were purple from the cold, but their steps never faltered.

The original "Lost in Journey" was inspired by the heavy snow in Changsha. Shen Shandeng planned to replace Niu Geng's jinx with the heavy snow element and show the role of the government.

Shen Shandeng does not believe that government disaster relief is a given and that people should be left to fend for themselves.

Therefore, those who do well should be encouraged.

You don't need to wear a suit and say thank you, but a proper presentation is still necessary.

"Emphasize the heavy snow element and integrate Li Chenggong and Niu Geng's arduous journey and transportation transfers into the snowy background."

Shen Shandeng said, "In normal circumstances, when roads are blocked, traffic police will direct traffic; when people are stranded, there are shelters that provide hot water and food; and when the power is cut off, people will brave the wind and snow to repair it."

"Just present these as normal backgrounds for the story to take place, which will enhance the story's quality."

Shen Shandeng believes that, whether subjectively or objectively, the public will encourage the state apparatus to fulfill its due responsibilities at critical moments and welcomes this.

Because it maximizes one's own interests, for ordinary people, even the worst order is better than no order, let alone a decent order.

And some people who chant another set of scriptures are not ordinary people.

The screenwriting team understood immediately and began making revisions.

The crew has begun operating efficiently, which means that the "Lost in Thailand" project has entered its final sprint stage.

It is expected that filming will officially begin in the latter half of the month.

The hotel rooms where the film crew stayed.

"Director Shen, I want to learn from Wu Jing and also go bankrupt to keep our project going." Xu Zheng felt that the project was not bad, and he also wanted to follow Wu Jing's story.

Their desire for progress is obvious.

Shen Shandeng refused, saying, "Old Xu, your greatest contribution is simply doing your job well."

He had no shortage of funding for this film, otherwise he wouldn't have filmed on location in several places.

I don't want to share any of the meat!

night.

Li Xiaolu, carrying a guitar, came to find Shen Shandeng with a smile.

"Director Shen, shouldn't you settle the payment you owe me?"

Li Xiaolu handed over the guitar, her eyes filled with anticipation. If she didn't pay soon, her best friend Mimi would be going on vacation.

Shen Shandeng smiled, took the guitar, and tuned the strings.

I quickly tuned the strings and tried a few notes.

The familiar prelude to "Goodbye Qingdao" flowed slowly through the room, instantly bringing the air to a quiet.

Shen Shandeng spoke, his voice highly recognizable with a slightly rough quality.

It instantly transports you back to that summer filled with sea breezes, beer, and youthful hormones.

A sea breeze blew through the streets in the afternoon.

The smell of malt also wafted into the air.
Sunlight climbs onto the red-tiled faculty building
Like a troubled young man, secretly observing.
Her laughter echoed through the corridors of youth.
A white dress brushed against the tip of her youthful nose.
Carrying the fragrance of youth

Sexual intercourse does not necessarily involve physical contact.

It could also be playing cards in the dormitory.
Calling someone "baby" doesn't necessarily mean it's directed at a girl.
It's also possible that I've already got information about the other side.
The chorus begins.

Emotions suddenly burst forth.

What a beautiful place

How beautiful the starlight! How beautiful the waves!

So many touching faces

Every street in Qingdao

You can find all of these.
Some say there are beer pipes flowing everywhere here.

As the pipes flowed into every household

A girl buys yarn at the supermarket.

I want to knit a sweater for the boy I love.
The green bottles in the freezer were neatly arranged.
The summer dust swirled up from the concrete playground, almost wearing through the soles of my sneakers.
Their figures wandered around the campus.

Summer sweat

The starlight of summer is dazzling.

The summer waves remain the same

But summer has come, and it's time to say goodbye.

The eternity is beyond words
They left each other photos, blessings, and promises, and waved goodbye.
What a beautiful place

What beautiful starlight

What beautiful waves!

So many touching faces

The separation won't be too long.
Because you'll be on every street here.

Every street

You can find all of these.
Some say there are beer pipes flowing everywhere here.

As the pipes flowed into every household

The light and shadow on the bus swayed.
Reflecting those unspoken words
The drifting clouds gathered and dispersed, dispersed and gathered again.
Shen Shandeng's voice also pierced Li Xiaolu's heart.

Her voice wasn't top-notch, and was even a little hoarse, but it was enveloped in a genuine, youthful aura, tinged with sweat and hormones.

It made her feel tingly and numb.

The raw and realistic description of "sex doesn't necessarily come from physical contact" gave Li Xiaolu goosebumps.

The man before me, at this moment, exudes a warm and powerful energy, like the sun, naturally radiating light and attracting all the moths.

Shen Shandeng felt as if he had returned to the summer of 05, the summer he graduated from university.

Having lived two lives, those vivid memories of youth remain the softest and most beautiful part of my heart.

This song is of great significance to him; it is his truly original song and the one with the highest popularity.

The unexpected creation of the internet buzzword "啪啪啪" led to the premature birth of the phrase "to clap for love".

The song ended with a slightly melancholic lingering feeling.

Li Xiaolu lunged forward, almost crashing into Shen Shandeng's arms.

She stared intently at him, her eyes burning with desire.

"Some people say this song has the narrative and atmosphere of Hotel California, and many people privately call it Qingdao Beer."

Li Xiaolu asked curiously, "I heard that you drank ten bottles of beer and finished writing this song in ten minutes, is that true?"

Shen Shandeng pushed her away as she lunged at him, but found he couldn't budge her. He said helplessly, "It feels like a tribute, but it doesn't follow the original."

"Playing cards, is it your Shandong-style 'Gouji'? Does 'opposite player' refer to the player across the hall?" Li Xiaolu had clearly done her homework.

"You know quite a lot." Shen Shandeng was a little surprised.

Li Xiaolu's eyes were glazed over as she bluntly said, "I want to play poker with you."

"."

Shen Shandeng laughed and said, "Two people can't fight each other."

"Can fight."

"We can't fight."

"Can fight."

"I have Mimi. Nizi, don't tempt me to make a mistake."

Li Xiaolu breathed softly, "I'm just your sister."

Shen Shandeng was amused by her lame excuse: "That explanation is a bit redundant."

The bad girl is not bad either; her breath is fresh, so she's obviously done her homework. I just don't know if she's removed her hair.

Li Xiaolu looked at him intently: "Director Shen, don't you want to try out the role first? Let's see if I can play the mistress who seduces a married man well?"

Li Xiaolu's men, however, did not stop, and went straight to the point.

"My sister wants to discuss the script with her brother in more detail, and I feel like I really like it."

Shen Shandeng looked into her eyes, which were filled with a mixture of admiration, ambition, and desire.

too difficult!
Which director could withstand such a test!

Li Xiaolu said enviously and jealously, "Mimi is so lucky."

In short.

I really regret not being able to control myself completely.

Protecting oneself when a boy is out and about is a real challenge.

1 month 25 day.

The preparation for "Lost in Thailand" has been completed, and filming has begun in Qingdao.
