Chapter 490
A private high school in Beijing.
The crew of "Better Days" is filming here.
An empty classroom on the top floor of this high school has been set up as a movie set.
Liu Yifei, Yang Zi, and the "extra students" invited directly from the school for free filled the classroom.
Although everyone was wearing the same school uniform and Liu Yifei had a short haircut, she was still the most conspicuous one in the crowd.
Even without any makeup, Liu Yifei was still so beautiful that anyone who walked into the classroom would see her at first sight.
The same was true for Wu Yuan, who came to the set slowly.
"Okay, click!"
"Stop for a minute!"
Li Yang, who was in charge of the entire crew, first saw Wu Yuan standing outside the classroom. He immediately raised his hand to signal to stop filming, and stood up and trotted towards Wu Yuan.
"Director Wu, why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to visit my wife on set, could it be that I'm here to see you?"
Wu Yuan rolled his eyes and didn't bother to answer Li Yang at all. He went straight to Liu Yifei with a bright smile, which made the high school students at the scene excited.
Damn, it's so exciting to see Director Wu and Liu Yifei showing off their love on the spot!
In the eager and expectant eyes of these high school students, Wu Yuan satisfied their gossipy hearts and hugged Liu Yifei.
"Oh, there are so many children." Liu Yifei immediately broke free from his embrace in shame and anger, and stretched out her hand to pinch Wu Yuan's waist in dissatisfaction: "Why are you hugging and hugging in front of so many children?"
"Don't you have any shame!"
Wu Yuan immediately let go of his hand, grinning and shouting in pain: "Hey, hey, are you women born with this trick, pinching people's waists at every turn?"
"Why, have you been pinched by any little girl?" Liu Yifei's eyebrows immediately stood up.
Wu Yuan hurriedly explained: "I heard from Xia Yu that he is always pinched by his wife like this."
The funny quarrel between the young couple immediately triggered a burst of booing from the onlookers.
Looking at the faces of these sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys and girls who were full of melons, Liu Yifei's rare face blushed, and she pulled Wu Yuan out of the classroom and hid in the corner of the corridor.
"It's only been a few days since the filming started, why are you here to visit the set?"
"Didn't I tell you not to come?"
"That won't work." Wu Yuan curled his lips and said unhappily: "Li Yang has taken my wife to the crew hotel. I'm not used to staying alone in an empty bed every night."
"Xixi, are you really going to stay in the crew hotel for the next period of time?"
"Yes, everyone stays in the crew hotel, and it's not appropriate for me to be special!" Liu Yifei nodded: "Besides, it's more convenient this way. The hotel is near the set. It only takes five minutes to go to and from work every day, which can save a lot of time."
Although "Better Days" was also filmed in Beijing, the set was not close to her and Wu Yuan's love nest. If they commute every day, it would take about three hours to go back and forth, which is a waste of time.
"How about I move in and live in the hotel with you?" Wu Yuan said with a raised corner of his mouth.
"Hey, I didn't realize you were so clingy before." Liu Yifei poked Wu Yuan's chin with a funny and sweet tone: "Why, our great director Wu is still like a little kid, and his parents have to accompany him every day?"
Wu Yuan smiled, "I'm used to it!"
In the past two years, as Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei's work became more and more synchronized, the two of them lived together for eight or nine months out of the 12 months of the year, either filming together, or Liu Yifei went to the United States to accompany him, or Wu Yuan accompanied Liu Yifei.
He has gradually gotten used to Liu Yifei's presence everywhere in his life.
Now he is completely free and has given himself a vacation, but Liu Yifei patted her butt and joined the crew to film, which made Wu Yuan quite uncomfortable.
Not to mention, although Liu Yifei laughed and scolded Wu Yuan for being clingy, she thought so in her heart.
She is actually used to having Wu Yuan's company around her.
The main reason for joining the crew this time was that she felt embarrassed not to stay in the hotel and go home every day. Otherwise, she also wanted to go home and stay at home with Wu Yuan after work every day.
They have been in love for so many years. Maybe because of the nature of work, Liu Yifei still feels fresh about Wu Yuan and is not tired of him at all.
"Then, you move in?" Liu Yifei said a little embarrassedly.
"Wouldn't it be bad?" She hesitated again after saying that, "Who would bring their family members to the crew to film."
"If other people in the crew knew about this, they would be so embarrassed."
"It's okay." Wu Yuan grinned: "Did you forget?"
"I'm the producer of this movie in name only!"
"I can't be considered a family member. It's reasonable for the producer to come to the crew to keep an eye on it, right?"
He was the producer of "Those Years", "Painted Skin 2", "Along with the Gods" and other movies.
If Wu Yuan didn't shoot the script himself, he would basically be listed as a producer in addition to the screenwriter. However, except for the fact that he was the producer of Zhang Guorong's debut film, he was just a producer in other films. He might not even be on the set once from preparation to completion.
"Yes, you are the producer!" Liu Yifei's eyes lit up and she put her arm around Wu Yuan's waist: "Then you move in tomorrow!"
"Haha." Before Wu Yuan could make more jokes, a head popped out of the back door of the classroom used for filming.
Li Yang winked at Wu Yuan and shouted, "Director Wu, you can't be partial when you come to visit the set!"
"You kidnapped our heroine as soon as you came, leaving everyone in the cold."
"Don't call me Director Wu." Wu Yuan looked at Li Yang through Liu Yifei's hair and said with a smile, "Call me Producer Wu!"
"When we are on the crew, we call each other by their positions!"
"Don't worry, I haven't forgotten you."
"I ordered a truck of milk tea for the crew. It's parked in the playground downstairs. Just call a few stagehands to bring it up."
"I know a delicious barbecue restaurant. The boss is from the Northeast. The taste is delicious!"
"Tonight, the whole crew will have an extra meal. I'll treat you!"
Wu Yuan's loud voice reached the classroom, and a cheer immediately rang out.
That night, Wu Yuan took dozens of crew members to book a barbecue restaurant that he always loved to come to in his dreams. After a good meal, Wu Yuan packed some clothes the next day and moved into the hotel booked by the crew of "Better Days".
However, although he joined the crew, he basically did not go to the set, but just waited in the hotel for Liu Yifei to go to work.
Since the director of this movie is Li Yang, Wu Yuan also agreed to let him go, so he would never go to the crew to interfere with Li Yang's filming.
For Li Yang, Wu Yuan, a top director, would give him great pressure as long as he appeared on the set, even if he didn't say a word. There was really no need to mess with his mentality.
So, Wu Yuan just wrote scripts and drank tea every day, and occasionally made appointments with Zhou Xun, Chen Kun and others to get together. More than a month passed quickly.
"Better Days" was also successfully completed in Beijing. (End of this chapter)
