The Fleeting Years of Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 32 One Movie, Two Emotional Debts

As night falls, the sky is adorned with diamond-like stars, and the crescent moon gently caresses the Milky Way, casting its soft light upon the earth, adding a touch of mystery and romance to the quiet night.

But Lin Mo couldn't be romantic at all right now...

Because during the crew's dinner break that evening, Lin Mo witnessed Liu Yifei remove the crystal necklace from her neck...

Luckily, I didn't throw it away.

But she never paid any attention to him again.

Even if Lin Mo was slow to react, he had finally figured out one thing…

This girl seems to have a bit of a crush on me.

Sadly, Lin Mo now has a rather... "wanting to eat what's in his bowl while eyeing what's in the pot" feeling.

He clearly didn't intend to provoke anyone! All he's thinking about now is making money, investing, and finally... just coasting along!

Making one movie led to two romantic entanglements, both involving minors? Lin Mo felt like he was truly unbelievable!

He gradually began to feel that he was a bit of an animal.

……

The following day, filming of "Your Name" continued.

However, the atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Liu Yifei seemed a little silent, Lin Mo looked a little embarrassed, while Da Tiantian was very happy.

Only Zhu Yawen was observing Lin Mo and Jing Tian with a "let's have some fun" attitude, wanting to see how things would develop between them.

Sensing that the atmosphere was a bit off, Lin Mo decided to film his scene with Liu Yifei last, to give Liu Yifei some time to adjust.

One night passed, and Lin Mo still couldn't come up with a good solution. It's no exaggeration to say that it's hardest to bear the kindness of a beautiful woman.

"Sisi, get ready, today is your day, good luck!"

Today, the crew is filming... the village gathering scene from the script, which is where Lin Mo added a dance scene for Liu Yifei.

Originally, this scene in the film was a sacrificial ceremony in the heroine's hometown, but it wouldn't be appropriate to place it in China.

Therefore, Lin Mo also plans to change the "ritual" activity of Mitsuha in the original movie into Liu Yifei using classical dance to attract customers and buy her family's traditional handicrafts.

Promoting traditional Chinese culture is everyone's responsibility!

Moreover, during the gathering, not only will vendors from all over the country come here to set up stalls to sell goods and snacks, but local villagers will also sell small handicrafts in front of their own homes, and there are many different ways to set up stalls to sell things.

There were singers, raffle participants, dancers, and even people shouting through a megaphone…

Furthermore, the kuchikami-zake (chewed sake) from the original anime film was transformed by Lin Mo into "Daughter's Red Wine," a traditional Chinese family tradition passed down through generations! The red string connecting the two was also changed into the well-known Chinese handicraft—the Ruyi knot!

There's not much to say about Daughter's Red wine, is there? It's a wine that's only unearthed and opened when a family's daughter gets married, and even in later generations, this custom still continues in some regions.

The Ruyi Knot was a gift woven by the female lead when she first met the male lead.

"Okay, I understand."

Liu Yifei's tone was somewhat aloof, giving off a feeling of being possessed by the Little Dragon Girl.

Looking at Liu Yifei's aloof expression, Lin Mo sighed silently and didn't say anything more.

Those who know me say I am worried; those who do not know me ask what I seek.

Although Lin Mo couldn't come up with a good solution to the current situation after thinking about it all night, he figured it was always better to finish making the movie first.

……

"Is this where junior Lin Mo took the photos? The environment is quite nice, with beautiful mountains and clear waters."

Ning Hao and Xing Aina, who had traveled a long way to reach Lin Mo's film crew, did not choose to visit them directly that day. Instead, they stayed overnight in a nearby town, bought some gifts, and prepared to visit them the next day.

"Did you contact Director Lin beforehand? Don't let this prevent us from even getting into the film crew later," Xing Aina said with some concern.

"I contacted him. I called him while you were getting your makeup done, but he's filming right now and can't come pick us up in person. However, he's already told his staff that we just need to show our names when we get there."

Ning Hao had a faint smile on his face, which meant that his communication with Lin Mo before coming here had gone smoothly and that Lin Mo's initial impression of him was very "kind".

"Judging from your expression... does that mean our junior is quite easy to talk to?"

Xing Aina was curious about her husband's prior communication with Lin Mo.

"Hehe... Indeed, the teacher is right. His personality is quite good, and he doesn't have that arrogant attitude."

The two talked as they walked, and soon arrived at the entrance of the film set.

After giving their names, a staff member was assigned to take them to find Lin Mo.

Moreover, the moment the two entered, they saw Liu Yifei's stunning dance moves...

"Is that girl Liu Yifei, the 'Fairy Sister' who's been incredibly popular lately? Hehe... She's really beautiful, even prettier in person than on TV."

Seeing Ning Hao's eyes practically bulging out of their sockets, Xing Aina secretly pinched his waist.

"What? You think I'm old and faded?"

Once Ning Hao recovered from the pain, he realized his embarrassing situation and immediately transformed into a lapdog, pledging his loyalty to Xing Aina.

"How could that be! No matter how beautiful others are, my heart only belongs to Xing Aina. I swear to God if you don't believe me!"

As Ning Hao was speaking, he actually thought of raising his hand to ask the heavens, but he was immediately stopped by Xing Aina with a slap.

"Alright, alright, looking at your face covered in dry tree bark, I doubt she'd even be interested in you. No need for swearing, but you're not getting into my bed tonight. You'll be sleeping on the sofa!"

Ignoring Ning Hao's liver-colored face, Xing Aina swayed her body and walked towards Lin Mo.

Since Lin Mo had already called "cut," it was time for them to go over and say hello.

"Hello Director Lin, I am Xing Aina."

"Hello Director Lin, I'm Ning Hao."

Lin Mo was taken aback when he saw the couple suddenly standing in front of him.

"Um... oh, hello, you must be the seniors who were supposed to come from the school? It's nice to meet you, I'm Lin Mo." Lin Mo replied to the two of them immediately after regaining his senses.

"Don't be so formal... We're all from Beijing Film Academy, so just call me junior or Xiao Mo."

Xing Aina was surprised that Lin Mo could actually be so "kind and approachable," and she finally felt relieved.

"Then we won't stand on ceremony... Junior Lin."

While Ning Hao and Xing Aina were chatting with Lin Mo, everyone in the crew became curious about the two newcomers.
