“By the way, what scene do you want to make up for? Teacher Wu Lie is back, right?” Chen Che asked.

“Soon.”

Zhou Xing paused and called his assistant to hand Chen Che some information at noon. “He should be coming from Shanghai.”

At this moment, a car drove over.

The two of them subconsciously stood up. The door of the nanny van opened and a middle-aged man got out.

It turned out to be Wu Lie. He had seen him once in the hospital and was also one of the main members of the production team of “Sword Tiger”.

“Chen Che? You’re back?”

After Wu Lie and Zhou Xing exchanged pleasantries, he asked Chen Che with concern, “I heard that you were injured and returned to the country? How are you now?”

Chen Che smiled. “He’s fine now. It’s just a slight concussion.”

Zhou Xing nodded and gestured for the two of them to sit down. “I’m really sorry. Originally, your scenes had already ended. However, during post-production editing, we realized that some scenes and scenes can’t be used. We might need to reshoot them.”

Wu Lie waved his hand. “That’s fine. It’s fine as long as we can finish filming smoothly.”

Chen Che’s eyes widened as if he was filled with endless vitality. “Since everyone is here, we have to film well this time.”

He smiled at Zhou Xing and added, “I should still have time, but I have to participate in the variety show recording on the 20th and 22nd.”

Zhou Xing paused for a moment and continued, “It will probably end in mid-March. Teacher Wu Lie, you still have other scenes. Chen Che, if you have time, stay until the production team finishes filming, right?”

Chen Che replied without hesitation, “No problem. Other than variety shows, I don’t have any other work. After filming over there, I’ll come back and stay when I’m free.”

Zhou Xing patted Chen Che’s shoulder in a tough manner.

He had a martial arts background and had always been filming action movies. His personality was not that shy.

However, when he had just transmigrated, Chen Che did not feel anything real and was flustered.

Now that everything had been settled, he gradually adapted to his new identity. Only then did he remember that Director Zhou Xing had been a little cold to him during filming.

Of course, this was not because he looked down on him, but because Chen Che had done very well, giving off an indifferent feeling.

In the past, Chen Che might not have cared about these interactions outside of work, but now, he felt that he had become more Subtlety.

However, he suppressed this feeling and did not say anything.

Zhou Xing continued to explain the remaining scenes. “Actually, there’s not much left. For Teacher Wu Lie’s scenes, two of the three of us have to be reshot. They’re all slightly difficult and dangerous explosion scenes.”

When Chen Che heard Zhou Xing’s introduction, he began to feel a little nervous.

This was the first time in his life that he had acted in a movie, in his previous life and in this life.

He thought for a moment and suggested, “Then let’s film Teacher Wu Lie’s scene first. I’ll prepare later?”

Chen Che glanced at Wu Lie and asked softly, “Teacher Wu Lie, you still have to return to China to film, right?”

Wu Lie waved his hand. “My scene can wait.”

Zhou Xing suggested, “Then let’s film the scene of Chen Che taking refuge first.”

Chen Che silently understood Zhou Xing’s arrangements.

Zhou Xing ordered, “Prepare your makeup and clothes.”

The two of them followed the arrangements and headed to the dressing room.

The makeup artists took care of their makeup and hairstyles, trying to restore their characters.

Zhou Xing, on the other hand, was busy setting up the scene and displaying the director’s skills.

Chen Che sat quietly on the chair and let the makeup artist take care of him. While doing his makeup, he chatted with Wu Lie and listened to his senior’s teachings.

Wu Lie was the embodiment of the easy-going and steady actors of that generation. He took good care of the younger actors.

They chatted happily, mostly about acting.

This period of time passed in a flash. When Zhou Xing returned to inform him that they were ready, the makeup artist reminded Chen Che to maintain his makeup.

Chen Che took a deep breath and prepared himself.

Fortunately, the experience left behind by his predecessor, Chen Che, was bone-deep, allowing him to be at ease during the filming.

Under Zhou Xing’s command, the entire filming location instantly fell silent, leaving only the sound of artillery fire and background music.

“Begin!”

Zhou Xing shouted.

With an explosion, Chen Che instinctively lay on the ground.

The filming paused. Zhou Xing stood up and reminded him, “Try your best to hide in the concrete fragments.”

With Wu Lie’s encouragement, the atmosphere became relaxed.

Chen Che composed himself and stood up again to prepare.

The makeup artist rushed over to check on her makeup while the demolitionist rearranged the props.

“Do it again,” Zhou Xing said after sitting down.

Chen Che focused and prepared himself.

When he was about to lie down, he immediately rolled into the concrete fragments.

“Begin!”

Zhou Xing shouted.

After the explosion, Chen Che quickly fell and rolled into the fragments.

Zhou Xing stopped and watched the replay. He stood up and walked towards Chen Che. “It’s not bad this time, but it can be better. For example…

Zhou Xing personally demonstrated, “Pay attention to the details. It’s not only the power of the bomb, but also the sound. You should cover your ears while covering your head. Do you understand?”

Chen Che nodded thoughtfully. “I understand. You have to have a sense of immersion and authenticity.”

Zhou Xing waved his hand. “Try again.”

Chen Che lowered his head and pondered for a moment while Zhou Xing sat down again.

“Get ready…”

It was still the same process.

“Begin!”

BOOM!

Chen Che immediately lay down, then stood up and jumped into the concrete fragments.

He covered his head with his arms and pressed his body against the ground.

This time, the pause was slightly longer because the explosion lasted for a while.

“Stop!”

Chen Che stood up and saw that Zhou Xing had already walked over.

He patted his body and asked, “Director, is it okay this time?”

Zhou Xing nodded. “That’s enough… Oh?”

He looked at Chen Che’s head and asked the props team to bring the first aid kit over.

Chen Che was stunned and subconsciously touched his head.

“Don’t touch it,” Zhou Xing said. “It’s easy to get Infest.”

He pointed at Chen Che’s forehead.

“Small scratch.”

Chen Che looked in the mirror and realized that there was a small wound on his forehead. There was not much blood, but there was some blood.

“That’s it,” he said to Zhou Xing. “Make it look more realistic. It can also match other makeup wounds.”

Zhou Xing nodded. “Then we’ll deal with it after the next scene.”

The three of them prepared to film the escape scene.

Although they were joking, Zhou Xing and Wu Lie looked at Chen Che with concern.

Zhou Xing mentioned that they had already filmed this scene before and were now reshooting it.

Chen Che did not say anything.

“The difficulty of acting has never been acting skills, but boredom,” Wu said. “The audience enjoys watching, but in fact, our acting is repeated over and over again. The emotions of the plot are not coherent.”

Chen Che nodded. “I think so too. We always encounter such problems after filming like this for so many years.”

Wu Lie looked at Chen Che in confusion. “You’ve been in the industry for a long time. Most of your roles are small roles. You should feel it yourself, right?”

Chen Che was about to answer when he suddenly thought of another question about the origins of this character.

Chen Che recalled the past when he was chased away by the machine band and his entanglement with Qu Feng.

Director Zhou Xing had obviously heard about this as well. He could not hide his awkwardness.

However, there was still a scene to film, so they could only put this topic aside for the time being..
