Chapter 20: They Transferred Their Love for Gu Zhi to Her
Qi Yunlin’s VCR was about the first film he worked on as an assistant director when he entered the directing industry, where he was harshly scolded by the director due to a mistake.
"I don’t care why you entered this industry. Since you’re here, you should take responsibility! If you can’t do it, get out of my crew. Don’t think I won’t scold you just because you’re Emperor Qi’s nephew!"
On a rainy night, he listened to the director’s reprimand while silently picking up the storyboard script the director had thrown on the ground.
[Sobbing, this was the set of ’A Promise is a Promise,’ Director Qi was only 21 years old then, it hurts my heart.]
[Isn’t this main director Tang Jin? Emperor Qi’s friend, he also contributed to Director Qi’s achievements.]
[Honestly, as a non-fan, this doesn’t affect me; who hasn’t been scolded at work?]
After two segments of VCR played, the director handed a card to Qi’s father, Qi’s mother, and Qi Yunlin, asking them to write down their feelings.
Next was Sun Chaohua’s VCR, showcasing a filming scene twenty years ago under a high temperature. Sun Chaohua wore thick cotton clothes for the martial arts scenes, which repeated over twenty times, yet his shots were few.
But he remained professional throughout, performing without a word of complaint.
Sun Chaohua awkwardly explained, "This scene was a bit part I played back then, just a martial arts shot, I only had one shot in it. I remember the high temperature reaching 38 degrees that day, and it was in an open valley, I got heatstroke after the performance."
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but applaud him, and Jiang Xiangwan murmured, "Filming back then was really tough."
