Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

"I don't need you to teach me!"

Liu Yifei looked smug; she was no longer a clueless newbie.

Moreover, she is the female lead this time, or at least one of the female leads, so the director will naturally be responsible for giving her acting instructions!

However, she was definitely still very grateful to Xu Heng in her heart!

After exchanging a few more words, the two went back to their respective rooms.

After Liu Yifei reported to the Beijing Film Academy, she got her own cell phone and sent Xu Heng a text message telling him that it was her number.

Xu Heng replied with "Received", and the two never contacted each other again.

They can be considered ordinary good friends now, but they are still quite far from being truly close friends who keep in frequent contact.

Two days later, on September 16th, the crew of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" held a launch ceremony at Dafosi Temple.

This is also a common practice, at least it's Zhang Da Hu Zi's practice, to hold a launch ceremony every time they go to a new location to film.

Those attending today's opening ceremony included executive producer Zhang Dahuzi, director Zhou Xiaowen, and art director Song Hongrong.

The cast includes Hu Jun as Qiao Feng, Xu Heng as Duan Yu, Gao Hu as Xu Zhu, Liu Yifei as Wang Yuyan, Liu Tao as A Zhu, Chen Hao as A Zi, Xiu Qing as Murong Fu, Tang Zhenzong as Duan Zhengchun, and Zhong Liti as Kang Min.

Many media outlets and reporters were present, and Xu Heng and Liu Yifei once again became the focus of attention.

Both of them have outstanding looks to begin with, and they've just joined the cast.

Xu Heng, in particular, made his first official appearance to the media as the actor playing Duan Yu.

After the opening ceremony, the first scene, a battle between Murong Fu and Ding Chunqiu, took place, with Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan also present.

After director Zhou Xiaowen finished explaining the scene, the wire work was already prepared.

After a brief exchange, the scene ended, with Xu Heng and Liu Yifei merely playing a supporting role.

After that, they filmed some more scenes of eating and chatting, with Xu Heng and Liu Yifei also playing minor roles.

After filming the daytime scenes, the two followed the crew to the release pond of the Great Buddha Temple. Next, they were going to film their first scene together, which was a night scene.

The plot involves Murong Fu running for the position of consort of the Western Xia dynasty. Wang Yuyan takes a walk by the pond late at night, and Duan Yu follows her out to confess his love. In the end, he also decides to participate in the consort election so that he can eliminate Murong Fu and let his beloved "Miss Wang" get her wish.

This scene only features Xu Heng and Liu Yifei, and it's very long, with dozens of shots. Zhou Xiaowen briefly explained the emotions needed before filming officially began.

It's impossible to tell all the dozens of shots at once; it's not too late to tell the story of the next shot after filming the previous one.

The filming went smoothly, and it only took a few takes at most.

After all, a single shot doesn't last long, and some shots only have one line of dialogue and one expression.

Moreover, often only one person faces the camera, while the other person is facing the side of the camera or even has their back to the camera, which naturally reduces the difficulty considerably.

Reshooting a purely dialogue-driven scene between two people is not difficult.

Even so, this scene still took more than three hours to film.

It was already past 10 p.m. when we finished filming, and it would take some time to get back to the hotel.

Fortunately, tonight's task is just this one scene, and we can wrap up after filming.

The next morning, Xu Heng, Liu Yifei, and the other actors arrived at She Diao Village in Dafosi Temple.

Shediao Village was the filming base that Zhang Dahuzi built inside Dafosi Temple when filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

The Great Buddha Temple is not just a temple, but also a very large scenic area.

Today they are filming a scene from Mantuo Manor, which is based on Guiyun Manor from the previous "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

It's clear that Liu Yifei is in a very good mood today.

Not only because of her good performance in the night scene last night, but also because she finally got her revenge!

When filming "The Story of a Noble Family", it was always Bai Xiuzhu, played by her, who pursued Jin Yanxi, played by Xu Heng.

Jin Yanxi also found Bai Xiuzhu extremely annoying, causing her a lot of grievances.

Although it was just acting, she didn't take it to heart.

But now that it's Xu Heng playing Duan Yu, who's relentlessly pursuing Wang Yuyan, played by her, it still makes her feel really good!

Especially last night, when Xu Heng, who played Duan Yu, was making vows and kneeling, she couldn't help but laugh several times!

Fortunately, she had her back to the camera at the time, so it didn't have a big impact.

However, she knew that Xu Heng must have found out and could definitely guess what she was thinking at the time.

She also noticed that Xu Heng's acting in this "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" was noticeably less natural than when he acted in "The Story of a Noble Family".

I just don't know if it's because he went from being pursued to being pursued, which doesn't fit his pretentious and somewhat arrogant personality.

But no matter what, Xu Heng can no longer criticize her acting skills!

"I didn't expect you to hold a grudge like that!"

While Zhou Xiaowen finished explaining the scene to them and went to explain it to the other actors, Xu Heng couldn't help but say.

He naturally wouldn't have a deep understanding of Liu Yifei's personality in her previous life.

He was just an ordinary person, but Liu Yifei was a true top star.

However, it seems that anyone who can reach the top in the entertainment industry is definitely not an innocent and harmless little rabbit!

"Is that not allowed?"

Liu Yifei looked smug.

She found it very relaxing to chat with Xu Heng; no matter what she said, Xu Heng wouldn't really care.

But that's precisely why she wanted to see Xu Heng suffer a setback.

Not to mention that when they were filming "The Story of a Noble Family", Xu Heng also teased her quite a bit!

Of course, all she wanted to see was some minor setbacks that wouldn't have much of an impact.

No matter what, Xu Heng was one of her few friends, and she certainly didn't want him to really suffer a loss.

"Fine, I won't stoop to your level!"

Xu Heng pretended not to care.

There's nothing we can do; Duan Yu is truly a simp.

Fortunately, she succeeded in licking him in the end, but it seems that the ending was changed in the revised version, and Wang Yuyan returned to Murong Fu's side.

"cut!"

Liu Yifei pouted. When she couldn't win an argument, she called her a little girl. Why didn't she think she was young when she teased her before?

However, despite her young age, she did not want others to give her extra care because of that.

She doesn't need any extra care. She can do what others can do, or at least she will try her best!

After spending several days filming the scenes at Mantuo Manor, they went to Qianzhang Yougu Scenic Area in Xinchang to film the scene where Wang Yuyan is poisoned by the Beisu Qingfeng.

In this scene, Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan will definitely have some physical contact, such as supporting each other and riding a horse together, but Xu Heng and Liu Yifei both acted very naturally.

As an actor, this kind of thing is unavoidable.

Besides, this level of physical contact is nothing at all.

Xu Heng previously gave his first kiss on screen and in this life in "The Story of a Noble Family".

Secondly, their current relationship is absolutely a pure friendship, and there is no room for any other thoughts.

Xu Heng has always been very sensible, and Liu Yifei has certainly been able to sense that.

Liu Yifei had never ridden a horse before, yet she wasn't afraid at all, which is much better than those future popular young actresses. She just likes to show off a bit...
