Chapter 11 Crazy
Maybe it's true that working together as a man and a woman is not tiring. Although they shot a lot of scenes that day, Chen Nuo still felt that time passed very quickly. After finishing work at 7 o'clock, Zhang Yiyi came to find Chen Nuo again, "Let's go, my mother stewed chicken today."

Chen Nuo raised his chin towards a place not far away, "Forget it today, he said he would treat me to a meal."

Zhang Yiyi tilted his head to look, his expression a little serious, "I know her mother, you really shouldn't... I won't be able to explain myself later."

Chen Nuo frowned and said, "Director, I am seriously asking you, what kind of image do you have of me?"

Zhang Yiyi did not answer. Instead, he said, "Remember, you can only eat. You are not allowed to do anything else." Then he turned and left.

Nini walked up to Chen Nuo shyly and said, "What did the director say?"

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "It's okay. Ask me to take you back early. Let's go. What are we going to eat?"

If a person from Xichuan and a person from Jinling go out to eat together in Beijing, what would they usually eat?

There is one and only one answer: Beijing Roast Duck.

Nini and Chen Nuo found a nearby roast duck restaurant. While waiting for the food to be served, Nini received a phone call and her face did not look very good when she came back.

Chen Nuo asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's just my mom...she likes to worry more."

Chen Nuo said, "You came to the capital alone?"

Nini said: "Not really, I have relatives here and I live with them."

"Why aren't you in school? Did you ask for leave?"

"Well, I asked for leave because I wanted to film Teacher Zhang's play." Nini looked at him and asked, "What about you?"

"I've also taken a leave of absence to attend a training course here to prepare for the film school entrance exam."

Nini laughed, "I can see that you must really like acting."

Chen Nuo was stunned for a moment and asked, "How did you know that?"

"Because..." Nini lowered her voice and said, "When you were drinking porridge today, I knew you couldn't drink any more, but you still forced yourself to drink. At that time, I knew that you would become a great actor in the future, just like Tony Leung Chiu-wai or Ge You."

Chen Nuo laughed, "Is it that exaggerated?"

"Really." Nini nodded seriously. She looked at Chen Nuo with light in her eyes.

"Teacher Zhang once said that only people who truly love movies will force themselves to eat 26 pears, mop the floor 27 times, and eat more than plates of pasta. Only such people can become top actors. I want to be such a person. I want to be an excellent actor and perform some good works so that everyone can know me. But you, I think you don't need to think about it, because you are born this way."

The prosperous roast duck restaurant was bustling with people, and customers were coming in an endless stream. Although the lights in the hall were bright, they still couldn't match the light in her eyes.

Chen Nuo didn't know what to say, so he raised his teacup and said, "Thank you. I toast to you. May your dream come true."

"I toast to you too, Brother Chen Nuo. Really, you can really make everyone enjoy watching your acting. I won't be wrong."

Nini didn't have many scenes, and the filming took just over a week. On the day she left, Nini gave Chen Nuo a small gift, a film-like keychain. Chen Nuo put it in his keychain, and although it became a little bulky, it was heavy and not easy to lose. After Nini finished filming, Chen Nuo and his crew filmed in the alley for a few more days, and then they finished filming all the scenes in the city. Then the entire crew moved to the suburbs around the capital to film the scene of the mute digging a house.

Zhang Yiyi rented a minibus and took the crew to a county called Laishui. The county was small, but it had mountains and water, beautiful scenery, and clean streets. The group booked five rooms in a guesthouse in the county, and Chen Nuo and Zhang Yiyi stayed in one room.

On the first night, Chen Nuo was kept awake all night by Zhang Yiyi's snoring.

The next day, the minibus took them to a small hill next to the county town, which was the filming location that Zhang Yiyi and his team had chosen long ago.

The price of staying up all night was that Chen Nuo's eyes were bloodshot and he was exhausted. His whole body seemed to be loosened. There was not a single place from head to toe that was strong. It felt like he was going to drop to the ground and die in the next second. But in the camera, no one looked more like the mute who had dug a hole in the mountain for five years than him.

Chen Nuo also felt that his state was somewhat correct. Although he was really tired and wanted to take a nap, his mind was in a trance, but in this state of half-sleep, he found himself entering the painting.

He is dumb. Chen Nuo felt it very clearly at this moment.

Zhang Yiyi quickly noticed the changes in Chen Nuo.

After just the first shot, Zhang Yiyi excitedly slapped his thigh and said, "That's right, Chen Nuo performed beyond his level today."

He quickly called Li Xiaotian over: "Tian'er, go and make some arrangements. Move part of tomorrow's shooting plan to today. Let's try to shoot more today. Chen Nuo is crazy today!"

Li Xiaotian is also from the Film Academy, and he knows that for an actor, Chen Nuo's current state is something that can only be encountered by chance.

People in the industry call this "inspiration coming" or "character possession."

This state is a state of high concentration and devotion that actors achieve during the performance, as if the character's soul is truly attached to the actor, making the actor's performance surpass the usual level, and the actor's emotions, movements, and language are perfectly integrated with the character.

In this case, the realism and appeal displayed by the actors is amazing.

Looking at the footage played back on the monitor, Li Xiaotian said, "I'll make arrangements right away. We'll shoot as many shots as we can today. I just hope Chen Nuo can hold on."

Li Xiaotian gave the order, and everyone in the crew noticed the change in Chen Nuo. From the cameraman to the lighting guy, from the sound engineer to the stage manager, everyone was in high spirits.

To put it bluntly, everyone in this circle doesn't want to meet a good director and good actors, so that they can also be on the list of award-winning movies? If you are really lucky and run into such a movie, you will basically have no worries in your life. What's more, other people's movies have a long list of behind-the-scenes names, while Zhang Yiyi's movie probably has no more than 20 people in the early and later stages. If he really makes something famous... I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it.

Under these circumstances, the crew was extremely efficient that day. Zhang Yiyi almost never called out "Cut" and kept shooting until dark. After shooting the few night scenes that could be shot, Zhang Yiyi reluctantly called out, "Call it a day."

Chen Nuo was already numb at this time.

It was really numb, even my toes were a bit out of control. I forced myself to get on the bus, sat down on the seat, and immediately passed out.

When he woke up, Chen Nuo found himself lying on the bed in the guesthouse. He didn't take off his clothes, but just covered himself with a quilt. He didn't know what time it was. There was no light in the room. It was pitch black and very quiet. He couldn't hear any snoring from Zhang Yiyi.

Eh, no.

Chen Nuo suddenly discovered that there was a large bed under him.
