China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 664: Liu Tianxian visits the set and The Invisible Guest is released

After Liu Yifei finalized the interior decoration style of the private jet with BMW's design team in Los Angeles, she didn't want to stay any longer and directly booked a flight for the next morning, preparing to go to Dallas to meet Sun Yi.

That night, Zhang Xin was helping Liu Yifei pack her luggage for her departure the next day.

"Sister, do we really need to book such an early flight? Can't you sleep a little longer?"

Liu Yifei was choosing her outfit for tomorrow. When she heard the assistant's question, she shook her head and replied with a smile:
"No need to sleep. I have to go early and keep an eye on him."

"Ah, sister, Director Sun is already so old, does he still need you to watch over him?"

"Why not? You have to watch it."

Liu Yifei picked out a long windbreaker, tried it on herself, and continued with a smile:
"As for him, it's okay if it's normal, but once he joins the crew and starts filming, he doesn't care about anything. He doesn't eat well, doesn't go to bed on time, and smokes a lot. It's okay in China, Xiaoting can help me keep an eye on him, but in the United States, there's no one to help me take care of him, so I have to go quickly."

"Oh, so that's it. Hehe, sister, I thought you meant to keep an eye on Brother Yi to prevent him from having affairs in the United States."

"Ha! How dare he! Break his legs."

Liu Yifei put down the clothes in her hands, raised her pink fist, and put on a fierce look.

Zhang Xin covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Hehe. I don't believe it. You definitely won't be willing to do it~"

"Tsk, what's there to be reluctant about?"

It will depend on which leg is hit then.

Liu Yifei added in her heart, then felt her face getting hot and quickly picked up her clothes again.

"Xinxin, how about this one? Pair it with some jeans?"

"Sister, you look good in anything you wear~"

"You are really good at talking. I will give you a chicken leg as a reward."

8am, Los Angeles International Airport.

Liu Yifei carried a bag in one hand and wore sunglasses. She was wearing a Chanel autumn and winter long jacket. Her long legs were tightly wrapped in navy blue jeans, and she walked with great vigor.

Zhang Xin behind her had a suitcase in each hand and had to jog to barely keep up with her sister.

"Sister, sister, let's slow down. Huh!"

Liu Yifei stopped, turned around and took off her sunglasses. Her beautiful eyes looked meaningfully at Zhang Xin, whose chest was rising and falling slightly. She shook her head and sighed:

"Tsk Xinxin, you need to exercise more, your physical strength is not good enough."

I??!!

Not physically fit?

Zhang Xin looked aggrieved.

I thought to myself, why don’t you try carrying two boxes and see if you get out of breath.

She thought about it in her mind, but she dared not say it out loud, so she could only pout and mutter.

"If my legs were as long as yours, this wouldn't be the case~"

"Aha!"

Liu Yifei pursed her lips and pouted the small suede high heels she specially picked for her feet. Her legs really looked long and beautiful, and her heart was immediately filled with joy.

My brother, that big pervert, would definitely drool when he sees this.

Hee~ I don’t know why, but I’ve been in a particularly good mood these days.

"Okay, give me one of the boxes. Hurry up, we'll be boarding soon."

"Hey, sister, no need."

Liu Yifei didn't give Zhang Xin any time to explain. She simply pulled a suitcase over and led the way.

Zhang Xin looked at her sister's cool back and felt puzzled.

Does love really have such great magic?
"Hey, sister, wait for me a moment"

The United States is indeed a major aviation power, and airplanes are the only means of medium and long-distance transportation.

Even though Liu Yifei bought the highest-level business class ticket, the terminal hall was still packed with people.

She couldn't help but imagine the scene of riding in her own private jet in the future.

It’s like placing an order at a 4S store, and when you go out and take a car home, you will definitely imagine the scene of sitting in your own car.

By then, it shouldn't be so troublesome.

"Excuse me, are you Crystal? Crystal Liu?"

"Yes, you are?"

"Oh my God, it's really you. I like you so much. Can you sign an autograph for me?"

Liu Yifei didn't expect to meet her American fans in the business class waiting lounge, two young ladies who were traveling to Texas together.

According to incomplete statistics, her fan base in North America is mainly girls, accounting for about 70 percent.

Fortunately, this is not China, and her overall popularity is limited, otherwise she would not be facing just a wave of fans.

Liu Yifei signed autographs for the two little girls, took a photo with them, and then boarded the plane.

After about 3 hours of flight, the plane landed at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.

After getting off the plane, I went straight to Sun Yi's crew.

She came today without informing Sun Yi, just wanting a surprise.

See if Sun Yi is cheating on her on the set.

The crew's security was handled by a local security service company, but there were also employees of North American Star among them, who obviously knew Liu Yifei, the boss lady.

Select Release directly.

On the set, Liu Yifei met Margaret, the crew's temporary assistant.

"Maggie~"

"Oh my god, Miss Crystal, when did you get here!"

"Shh! I just arrived, where is the shooting progress now?"

"Well, according to the plan, it was a hospital scene, but after the first take, the boss was not satisfied with it and said that it needed to be changed temporarily. We are re-arranging it now."

"Oh, I see~"

Liu Yifei raised her wrist and looked at the time.

It was almost lunchtime. She pulled Margaret over, whispered something to her, and then took out a credit card from her bag.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Thank you for your hard work~"

Today was Liu Yifei's first meeting with the entire crew, and she didn't want to come empty-handed, so as it was lunch time, she asked Margaret to order a pizza and afternoon tea for everyone.

After making the arrangements, Liu Yifei walked into the set carefully.

A two-story building with a yard.

It is called a hospital, but in fact it is similar to a small clinic in China. After all, the movie is set in the United States in the 80s, and hospitals at that time were not very big.

From the outside, Sun Yi was talking to Leonardo and another actor, demonstrating movements with his hands while talking.

Then the two actors nodded in understanding, and Sun Yi returned to the monitor.

Because the filming was in progress, everyone was on duty, and Liu Yifei was sneaking around without making any noise, so no one really noticed her. Liu Yifei carefully moved to a place just a few steps away from Sun Yi, and looked at Sun Yi lovingly while he was working, with her hands behind her back and a happy smile on her face.

Sun Yi put on the headset, raised his hand, and clapped twice.

The on-site personnel seemed to have received instructions. They all took their positions and entered into work mode. Then they began to observe Sun Yi, waiting for the next instructions.

Sun Yi picked up the intercom and said, "All departments, get ready," and everyone immediately began to report.

The photographer checked the machine one last time and shouted, "Rolling!"

Sound engineer: “Sound speed!”

Prop Master and Actor’s Assistant: “All ready!”

Seeing that everything was ready, Sun Yi calmly snapped his fingers towards the distance, "Marker."

When the script supervisor heard this, he hurried over to the camera and quickly clapboarded, "Scene 11, shot 4."

The photographer immediately raised his hand and signaled to Sun Yi, "Set!"

Seeing this, Sun Yi gave an order, "Action!"

The entire crew performed the movements smoothly and professionally.

Liu Yifei's pair of phoenix eyes, like a clear spring, sparkling, were fixed on Sun Yi the whole time.

I saw him working hard and watched him give orders.

Her mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear, it was so beautiful that it touched my heart, and she looked like a crazy fan.

Brother is so handsome!

Until this time, no one noticed that there was an extra Liu Yifei on the set. Even if someone noticed, they didn't have the time to pay attention.

Once the director yells “start”, all tasks will be based on filming.

The camera follows Leonardo.

He rushed into the hospital corridor with an angry look on his face, and then began to look for something frantically.

Until he saw his former attending physician.

Then, like a bull, he charged at the doctor angrily.

The doctor was frightened by his aura and stepped back repeatedly, but he was still grabbed by the collar.

"Ron, what are you doing? This is a hospital. Security, security, someone come here!"

Leonardo grabbed the doctor by the neck and pushed him against the wall.

"You are a murderer, an executioner, you killed him, you are a murderer!"

"You are a murderer, an executioner, you killed him, you are a murderer!!"

Leonardo was extremely angry at this moment, his face was ashen, the veins on his neck were exposed, and his eyes were filled with murderous rage.

A security guard rushed over and tried to pull him away, but he pushed him away.

No one expected that such energy could burst out from such a thin body of an AIDS patient.

It took three security guards to pull Leonardo away from the doctor.

"OK, pass!"

Sun Yi stood up and clapped his hands with satisfaction.

He had re-arranged the scene just now.

According to the script, the protagonist Ron was very angry when he heard that Ryan fell ill and died in the hospital after ACT treatment failed. He went to the hospital and made a scene.

The filming based on the original novel is, how should I put it, a bit bland, watery and tasteless.

An indoor wide-angle lens was used, with no close-ups, no positive and negative shots of the characters. In short, it was impossible to tell how angry the protagonist was.

Sun Yi's adaptation this time borrowed some of the filming techniques of the later "Dying to Survive", which was the part where Cheng Yong angrily questioned Cao Bin after learning that Huang Mao died in a car accident during the police chase.

There should be a close-up of the protagonist's angry expression. He should be furious and rageous, and he should have a feeling of wanting to kill someone.

Moreover, there are positive and negative shots of the doctor's frightened expression, as well as the pulling of several security guards, to highlight the degree of Leonardo's anger.

Looking at it now, with this change, coupled with Leo's amazing acting skills, the film is much better than the original.

Sun Yi was very satisfied. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon, so he simply clapped his hands and arranged for everyone to have lunch and rest.

"Okay, that's all for this morning, let's go eat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Yi turned around and was stunned.

I saw Liu Yifei standing not far away, with her hands behind her back and a faint smile on her face.

He was so surprised that he forgot that he was at a filming location. He rushed over and picked up the girl.

Now, everyone in the crew could see Liu Yifei.

Those who are familiar with her know that she is the proprietress, and those who are not familiar with her also know that she is the oriental star who became famous in North America this year.

Leonardo threw the cowboy hat off his head and whistled loudly for fun. With him starting the conversation, everyone started to cheer.

Liu Yifei's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment. She knew her brother would be very surprised to see her, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

"Oh~ Put me down quickly, there are so many people here~"

Sun Yi finally reacted, but he couldn't just let go.

"I've already been laughed at by them. If I put you down now, I'll be at a loss. I have to give you a kiss first."

"Oh, you! Ugh~~"

Liu Yifei didn't dodge after all and was kissed hard.

Oh oh oh~~~
There were whistles, cheers and applause at the scene.

At this time, Sun Yi put down Liu Yifei, who was blushing and complaining, and threatened everyone:
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a girlfriend visiting you on set? Let's go eat."

At this time, Margaret also came in with the restaurant's delivery boy.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone. We have extra snacks for lunch today. Miss Crystal has ordered pizza and afternoon tea for everyone!"

"Woohoo~" "Thank you, boss lady~" "Hurray" "Thank you, Miss Crystal!"

There was a burst of cheers at the scene, and Liu Yifei raised her mouth happily, revealing a row of pink little teeth that could not hide anything.

The filming progress of the movie was very fast. Tom Hiddleston, who joined the cast last, also worked very hard. He reduced his weight to the range required by Sun Yi within a week and kept up with the filming progress.

At the same time, in order to maintain the appearance of an AIDS patient, he only ate half a meal of staple food a day, and relied on water and vitamins to support himself, remaining in a weak state throughout the whole process.

Leonardo was the same. He was so immersed in the role that sometimes he would argue with Sun Yi over some of the character's little actions. In the end, the facts proved that he was right.

The film was almost finished in less than a month, with only the final scenes at the beginning left.

Because the protagonist's mentality and emotions in this opening scene are completely different from those later on, Sun Yi gave Leonardo a few days of rest to allow him to adjust.

But he couldn't sit still. When he heard about another movie starring Sun Yi, he insisted on going to watch it.

"The Invisible Guest" was released in North America on December 12. Because it was a small-scale suspense film, Sun Yi did not arrange any premiere at all, nor did he intend to carry out large-scale publicity.

It was just a normal mention in some film and television media.

However, Liu Yifei and Leonardo did promote the film on their social media platforms.

The film opened in North America with an initial opening of 1400 theaters.
