Chinese Entertainment 2014: Young Actresses Are Becoming Dazzling

Chapter 84 Preparing to Depart for Changbai Mountain

"I'll go if I have nothing to do. Okay, let's go, bye~"

Su Yu went straight to the dressing room.

He was sitting there having Sister Wang touch up the shadow on his brow bone when the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Lu Hanfeng rushed in, still wearing his hat and looking tired, but his eyes lit up the moment he saw Su Yu.

"Master!"

His shout was so unabashed that everyone in the dressing room turned to look, startling Sister Wang, who nearly poked Su Yu on the head with her makeup brush.

Su Yu glanced at him in the mirror: "You're back?"

"I'm back!"

Lu Han pulled over a makeup chair and plopped down, feeling excited, thrilled, and on the verge of tears.

"Master, let me tell you, this song has been stuck in my head for the past few days! I hum it when I'm resting, I hum it when I'm eating, and it's even playing on repeat in my head when I'm sleeping, hahaha, I really love this song so much!"

"If you like it, that's good~"

Su Yu chuckled.

Sister Wang, sensing the situation, quickened her pace, finished the last few strokes in a few quick movements, and then stepped aside with her makeup tray.

Taking the opportunity, Lu Han moved her chair forward another half meter, leaned closer to Su Yu, lowered her voice, and couldn't hide her excitement:

"Master, the studio is already going through the production process. The arrangement will remain the same as the version you initially decided on, the recording studio is the best one in the capital, and we're already in talks with the music video director!"

He paused here, then looked at Su Yu with a touch of sadness.

"I've been in this industry for so long, and I've received songs written for me before, but Master, this is the first time I've felt that someone truly understands my experiences and can truly empathize with me. Master, wouldn't you say this is a case of kindred spirits meeting?!"

Su Yu leaned back in his chair and coughed lightly:

"Alright, alright, stop getting sentimental," Su Yu stood up, patted him on the shoulder, "My task is complete, now you sing well!"

"must!"

Yang Mi returned around noon.

Her flight had just landed when she went straight from the airport to the film set, without even going back to her hotel.

Su Yu was drinking water by the side of the film set when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking in from the entrance. The figure was wearing a black trench coat, large sunglasses, and high heels that clicked on the concrete floor. A small assistant followed behind him, and the figure still exuded a powerful aura.

She took off her sunglasses, glanced around the set, and finally spotted Su Yu.

"Sister Mi, you're back." Su Yu greeted her proactively.

"Hmm." Yang Mi walked up to him, looked him up and down, and had a faint smile on her lips.

"Su Yu, you're really stealing the spotlight! I heard your song even made Lu Han cry?"

"Oh? No, no, I was just writing whatever came to mind."

"Could something I wrote casually make Lu Han's eyes well up with tears?"

Yang Mi has clearly obtained complete information from some source.

She didn't press further, but instead gave Su Yu a deep look. Before Su Yu could respond, Dilraba had already bounced over from a short distance away and grabbed Yang Mi's arm.

"Honey! You're finally back! I missed you so much!"

......

Today's filming schedule is not tight; all shots are being taken in a large tent set up by the production crew.

Su Yu and Lu Han have a long take of a scene where they walk side by side in a tomb passage. Luo Yongchang was extremely strict about the blocking in this scene and adjusted it several times before he was satisfied.

Fortunately, the two now have a very high level of understanding and hardly need any more adjustment. They can tell each other which direction to go and how many seconds to pause with just a glance. With Su Yu's help, the final result is just right.

Watching the two people walking side by side on the monitor, Zheng Baorui suddenly turned to Luo Yongchang and said, "Wouldn't it be great if these two were really Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling?"

Luo Yongchang, unusually, didn't pour cold water on the idea and nodded heavily.

After we finished work, it was already dark.

Su Yu was about to pack his things to go to Li Yitong's place when Zheng Baorui and Luo Yongchang stopped everyone.

"Everyone, please don't leave yet, I have something to announce."

Zheng Baorui stood in the center of the film set, holding a large megaphone, his face beaming with barely concealed excitement.

"Starting tomorrow, the film crew will be heading to Changbai Mountain!"

These words immediately caused an uproar on set.

The staff members whispered among themselves, some couldn't help but cheer, and others had already started taking out their phones to check the weather in Changbai Mountain.

Zheng Baorui waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet and continued:

"The outdoor scenes will be filmed intensively for about a week. The temperature there is much lower than in the capital, so everyone should bring warm clothes so they don't freeze. We'll be leaving at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. The bus will pick us up at the hotel entrance. Our flights have already been booked."

When Su Yu heard the words "Changbai Mountain", his eyebrows twitched slightly.

Of course he knew what Changbai Mountain meant: the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds, a sacred place for book fans to visit. He heard that a snow sculpture of the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds was actually built on Changbai Mountain. He had never been there, and he knew he wouldn't be able to this time.

After receiving the notification, Su Yu first sent a message to Li Yitong.

[Su Yu]: Xue'er, I can't go to your place tonight. The crew is leaving for Changbai Mountain early tomorrow morning, so I have to pack my bags tonight.

Li Yitong replied instantly.

[Li Yitong]: Changbai Mountain?! Are we filming on location? How long will it take?

[Su Yu]: About a week.

[Li Yitong]: Then wear more clothes! It's several degrees below zero there now. I saw last time that you didn't even have a thick down jacket in your suitcase. You should go and buy one!

[Su Yu]: Okay.

[Li Yitong]: Take good care of yourself.

[Su Yu]: Okay, I'll come see you when I get back.

[Li Yitong]: Okay, be careful, don't run around on the mountain, don't be reckless, don't let Lu Han learn kung fu and fall down, don't...

[Su Yu]: Master, stop chanting!

[Li Yitong]: Get lost.

Su Yu chuckled and then opened Jing Tian's WeChat.

[Su Yu]: Sweetie, I'm going to Changbai Mountain tomorrow.

Jing Tian replied after a few minutes.

[Sweet]: Changbai Mountain?! I'm coming back from Hengdian in a couple of days, and you're leaving again?! Are we cursed?!

[Su Yu]: Pah! Don't say such unlucky things.

[Sweet]: I don't care! I'm going back to the capital in a couple of days, and you won't be there. Should I come find you?

[Su Yu]: No, I'll be too busy to take care of you, okay?

[Sweet]: Okay, then you have to take more photos for me. I heard that Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain is very beautiful, but I haven't been there yet.

[Su Yu]: Okay, I'll take the picture for you.

[Sweet]: [Rabbit nodding.gif]

After having dinner with Lu Han and Reba and returning to the hotel, Su Yu lay on the bed for a while. Before going to sleep, Su Yu opened his suitcase and started stuffing thick clothes inside.

He didn't have much gear to withstand sub-zero temperatures; he only brought a down jacket and a few sweatshirts. He thought about it and decided to buy more when he got to Changbai Mountain, since there would definitely be outdoor gear for sale where the film crew was stationed.

As I was tidying up, there was a knock on the door.

Knock knock knock.
