Huayu: Starting from an Unemployed Male Model

The two rested for a while before continuing to film.

The following plot involves the Japanese taking control of Chenqiaotou and Chenxiangkou, threatening the lives of all the city's residents to force them to celebrate the officer's birthday, and altering the script, replacing the loyal and virtuous characters with the invaders.

For the sake of national integrity, the two feigned agreement but secretly poisoned the wine. In the end, they perished together with the enemy on the stage, sacrificing their lives for their country.

"Scene 36, The Pear Garden."

"Action".

The stagehand clapperboard fell.

Wei Jun and Li Qin were forced to sit in front of the Japanese officer by the Japanese soldiers behind them, their expressions serious and resentful.

The Japanese translator (played by He Lei) spread the story of the loyal and virtuous "The Tale of Two Heroes" on the wooden table and said leisurely, "This is a big day for the Imperial Army. This recording is for international publication, so don't mess it up..."

The Japanese officer (played by Yang Qingwen) raised three fingers: "Outside of the city, every performance, and three people outside the city."

The lackey translator immediately translated: "Besides you, for each play, release three people from the city."

"Thirty." Chen Xiangkou (Li Qin) said coldly.

The translator was about to object when the Japanese officer raised his hand to stop him: "It's fine."

Then the Japanese officer demanded that Chen Qiaotou and Chen Xiangkou change the main characters of "The Tale of Two Heroes" to the Japanese Matsumoto couple.

Chen Qiaotou clenched his fist, his fingernails digging deep into his palm, drawing a few drops of blood.

The two men feigned agreement, preparing to send the Japanese soldiers to hell on the night of the performance.

"Cut! That's a wrap!" Director Shen Ao shouted through a megaphone.

This simple scenario wasn't difficult, and all of them got it right on the first try.

Then they began filming several scenes, including the death of a Japanese soldier from poisoning and the killing of a Japanese officer by Chen Qiaotou. Yang Qingwen, He Lei, and some extras then finished filming.

Yang Qingwen is a specialist in playing Japanese soldiers in anti-Japanese war dramas. He played Terauchi Isamu in "The Indelible Number" and Ito Hiroyu in "Snow Leopard".

He Lei later played the role of a translator in the film "Nanjing Photo Studio".

The remaining scenes are the most essential and climactic part of this short drama.

Wei Jun and his companion finished applying theatrical makeup, donned their costumes, and each had a small blood pack in their mouths.

Chen Qiaotou (Wei Jun) shakily turned on the power switch, and the center of the stage became bright. He staggered back to the center of the stage.

Chen Xiangkou (Li Lin) held an oil lamp in his hands, blood overflowing from his mouth.

"Let's finish the last performance." Wei Jun bit off the small blood packet in his mouth, blood flowing from his mouth. He forced himself to walk to Li Lin's side and reached out to cover his stomach, which was being churned by the toxins.

"Those who trample on my land and harm my people will be haunted by my soul day and night, and will never find peace..." Li Lin sang the lyrics in a theatrical style.

The crew members on set suddenly got goosebumps, and director Shen Ao gripped the megaphone tightly, the veins on his skin throbbing clearly.

Yang Chaoyue, who had been sitting still in her chair waiting, suddenly stood up, as if she were seeing Li Lin for the first time and was amazed by her opera singing.

These words really hit home, stirring up a mix of sadness, anger, and other complex emotions in the hearts of the people on set.

The music video shows Li Lin singing lyrics while the camera constantly switches between scenes of invaders massacring civilians and the people suffering in dire straits.

"This stage will be your final resting place, this city will never be your paradise," Wei Jun used the entry "[Pear Garden Sacred Heart]" to perform standard opera movements, accurately portraying the emotions and singing with high-quality opera vocals, "Now the two of us..."

Li Qin interjected, "Today, my husband and I..."

Wei Jun trembled all over as he slowly turned to look at Li Lin, his eyes brimming with tears, his expression a mixture of surprise, joy, and resolute determination.

Li Qin tilted her head slightly, looking at him with deep affection and reproach.

With resolute eyes and firm voices, the two shouted in unison, "We erect this curse on this platform, and with these bodies and souls, we will suppress you sinners..."

"Chen Qiaotou, come and meet your death!"

"Chen Xiangkou, come and meet your death!"

The oil lamp in Li Qin's hand fell to the ground, instantly igniting a sea of ​​fire.

The two supported each other as they were engulfed by the flames.

......

"Cut!!! That's a wrap!!!" Director Shen Ao's voice was louder, more excited, and trembling than usual.

Wei Jun and Li Lin immediately detached themselves from their roles and helped each other off the stage.

At this moment, a burst of enthusiastic applause erupted on set, lasting for a full two minutes.

Yang Chaoyue, the crew members, the military officers, and other actors and extras applauded and cheered.

"Boss, you're so handsome, I'm going to cry!!!"

"That was a really good performance! It gave me goosebumps."

"Even I, a grown man, was infected and cried."

"This music video is absolutely amazing."

......

Wei Jun and his companion bowed slightly to express their gratitude to the staff and actors on set for their praise.

"President Wei, this is the place!" Shen Ao gave a thumbs up.

Yang Chaoyue, carrying two bottles of mineral water, came over with small, quick steps: "Boss, you two are really awesome, I was moved to tears." After saying that, she handed over one bottle of mineral water, and after thinking for a moment, handed the other one to Li Qin.

Wei Jun took the bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, took a few sips, and then said, "Thank you."

"I have a feeling this song and this storyline will be a hit," Shen Ao sighed slightly. "While you were performing just now, the song 'Touring Beijing' automatically played in my head, and I instantly got goosebumps all over my body."

Wei Jun gently patted Shen Ao's shoulder: "This music video became a hit, and you, Director Shen, deserve some credit for it."

Shen Ao smiled wryly: "What kind of director am I? You handled everything from the shooting style of this music video to the types of cameras used and the lighting."

Wei Jun possesses the attribute "Super Beast Brain," allowing him to quickly learn artistic skills. Over the past few days, he has been gradually integrating plot, shooting methods, and lighting settings, giving him a deeper understanding of the director's profession.

"I have a lot to learn from you. I can shoot simple music videos, but it's much more difficult to shoot complex long stories."

As a director, Wei Jun certainly has a lot to learn, but he firmly believes that with time and further study, he will be able to perfectly master the production of a feature film.

Li Qin nodded in agreement, "Wei Jun, you want to be a director in the future?"

"I haven't directed many TV series or movies, so what kind of director am I?"

As for directing, let's talk about that later. I can't do it right now. It's not a matter of personal ability, but rather that no one will believe that a nobody like me, who has never even directed a few films and has no formal training, knows how to make movies.

He can be a producer. Once he's done with this busy period and has earned more money, Wei Jun can organize his own productions of TV series and movies.

Instead of passively waiting for others to choose you, it's better to create your own resources.

"After watching your music video, I was deeply moved. Perhaps I will make a film on a similar theme in the future." Shen Ao waved the script in his hand.

Wei Jun stared wide-eyed. "Isn't this a coincidence? You'll be filming a similar type of subject matter in the future."

Yes, "Nanjing Photo Studio" grossed 30 billion yuan at the box office.

After chatting for a while, Wei Jun prepared to remove his makeup.

Yang Hua strode over, shouting repeatedly, "It's a hit! It's a hit!"

"What's trending?" Everyone was surprised.

"Wei Jun's solo version of 'Touring Beijing' has become a hit."

It turns out today is October 1st, and Wei Jun's solo version of "Touring Beijing" has been officially released.
