The Fleeting Years of Chinese Entertainment

"I feel... a bit of a stiff neck..."

Liu Yifei stopped what she was doing when she saw her mother come in.

"Does your neck feel uncomfortable? Did you twist it while filming?"

Liu Xiaoli quickly put the milk she was holding on the table next to her.

While inviting Liu Yifei to sit down, he also began to examine his daughter's neck.

Although Liu Xiaoli is a dancer and has experience with various sprains, she is not a professional doctor and couldn't find the real problem after a long examination.

"Sisi, you wear such a heavy wig every day and film for such long hours. Your neck and cervical spine are definitely prone to problems." Liu Xiaoli's face was full of heartache.

"Mom will find you a massage therapist tomorrow. After you finish filming every day, he can come and give you a massage. I'll also buy some good medicated plasters for you to apply and see if that helps relieve the pain."

"Hehe... Thank you, Mom."

……

After returning to China, Lin Mo did not visit Liu Yifei on set immediately. Instead, he first visited some well-known traditional Chinese medicine doctors in China who had studied sprains and bruises.

"I've written down all the instructions for using the liniment and plaster for you on a piece of paper. Just follow the instructions when you need to use them."

"Thank you, Master..."

……

The traditional Chinese medicine doctor sold Lin Mo a liniment for bruises that was his own secret recipe, and it was more effective than some liniments on the market.

This was verified by a large number of people in the vicinity, so Lin Mo had no doubts about it.

In addition, Lin Mo bought a bunch of hand warmers on his way to the set of "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

After all, the weather has turned cooler now, and the costumes used by the crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" are quite thin and not very warm. It was quite effective to stick on two pieces of clothing while filming.

The weather in November is no longer warm, especially in Jiuzhaigou, where some mountain peaks still have snow and ice that haven't melted yet.

The melted snow and ice have already flowed into the river…

Lin Mo reached out to test the water temperature, and the icy chill instantly hit him, making him quickly withdraw his fingers.

"Was it under these temperatures that Sissi filmed 'The Return of the Condor Heroes'?"

Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little worried for the girl.

In her past life, Liu Yifei only paid attention to how beautiful the Little Dragon Girl on TV was and how ethereal her clothes were, completely unaware that during filming, she was also shivering from the cold and couldn't even speak.

Lin Mo rented a car for this visit to the set, and the trunk was filled with several cases of Starbucks coffee.

Having tested the river water temperature, Lin Mo sat back in the driver's seat, his gaze falling on the backpack on the passenger seat, where something could warm the girl.

"Sissi... I'm here, but I don't know if I'm too late."

……

The filming of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" in Jiuzhaigou is nearing its end, and the scene currently being filmed is a scene where Xiaolongnu chases Li Mochou across a waterfall.

Although this scene was short, consisting of only a few shots and minimal dialogue, it involved going into the water and standing under a waterfall to film, which posed a certain degree of danger.

Therefore, Yu Min also planned to arrange for several young and strong staff members to wear waterproof pants and go into the water with the actors, just in case.

Even the assistant director, Gao Mingku, who was present, was dragged into the labor.

Just as Gao Mingku and several staff members got into position in the water, the actors, like little quails frozen to the bone, shakily walked into the water.

Perhaps due to the nearby waterfall, the water flow was too rapid, and the underwater rocks were exceptionally smooth.

The moment Liu Yifei, dressed in a white costume and wearing a heavy wig, entered the water, she lost her balance and fell directly into the water.

Fortunately, a staff member who had gone into the water beforehand was standing right next to where she fell, and he helped Liu Yifei up.

"Are you alright?"

"It's... okay, thank you... it's just... a little... slippery."

With her face almost turning blue from the cold, Liu Yifei said gratefully:

……

Lin Mo had already arrived at the filming location of the "The Return of the Condor Heroes" crew.

After telling the "gatekeeper" that he was there to visit Liu Yifei on set, the staff member respectfully led the way for Lin Mo.

Because Lin Mo bought so much coffee that it filled eight boxes, the gatekeeper had to ask three of his coworkers to help him.

"Director Lin, I've seen your film 'Your Name' too. It's so well-made! My girlfriend was so moved she cried buckets and went through several packs of tissues!"

"Thank you for your and your girlfriend's support..."

"Director Lin, you and Yifei are classmates, right? I heard you are...

Lin Mo didn't expect this staff member to be such a chatterbox. On the way to the filming location, the staff member kept trying to find topics to chat with Lin Mo.

Not long after...

Led by the staff, Lin Mo arrived at the waterfall where the film crew was shooting, and just then he saw Liu Yifei being helped up by the underwater crew.

Knowing what was about to happen, Lin Mo couldn't bother chatting with the staff next to him anymore.

He took off his backpack and threw it on the ground, then sprinted towards the waterfall at a speed of 180 miles per second.

He even took off his down jacket and threw it away while running...

The staff member who led Lin Mo in, along with his three coworkers who were also carrying two boxes of coffee, were immediately dumbfounded by Lin Mo's "shenanigans".

"Hey... Director Lin, you can't go over there yet..."

"Director Lin, they're still filming over there..."

"Director Lin..."

Lin Mo ignored the shouts of those people and the attention drawn to him, focusing only on running wildly.

Because he saw that Liu Yifei was almost at the bottom of the waterfall!

"Wait, you can't go over there!"

But things didn't go as planned... Lin Mo, who just wanted to rush over as quickly as possible, was blocked by a staff member on the shore.

"Get out of here!!!"

Lin Mo shoved aside the staff member who was trying to stop him; at that moment, he no longer cared about being polite or courteous.

"Ah... thud!"

"thump…"

The sound of Liu Yifei falling into the water with a delicate cry rang out at the same time as the sound of Lin Mo plunging into the water!

"Yifei...hmm?"

"Yifei! Help... Holy crap!!!"

"Come here quickly...who is this?"

……

The sound of the waterfall falling was very loud, and Huang Xiaoming, Gao Mingku, and others who were standing in the water had not noticed the "commotion" on the shore beforehand.

Just as they were about to rescue Liu Yifei after she fell into the water, they suddenly saw a figure resembling a large black rat dart past them...
