Hello Mr. King

Chapter 524 - Filming is Nearing Its End

Chapter 524: Filming is Nearing Its End

Yun Xiangxiang understood why he didn’t tell her in advance; he was afraid that she would feel pressured. Based on the current reputation and daily box office figures, a 1.5 billion yuan of profit for Jiu Se was already guaranteed.

Yun Xiangxiang’s first step was to split the profits without a doubt. However, she still had to see how much Wei Shanwen’s sincerity.

Wei Shanwen was very straightforward as he raised two of his fingers. “Two.”

It was almost the same as He Wei had predicted, so his reaction was very calm.

“We have such a deep relationship, so I don’t want to bargain with you,” Wei Shanwen said. “Please accept my sincerity.”

He was indeed very sincere. Yun Xiangxiang had already taken in more than two billion at the box office for two films.

Although the box office of “The King’s Plan” was not solely due to her, “University Dream” was due to the timing.

“Jiu Se,” on the other hand, was definitely because of her. With the foundation of her previous films, her appeal to the masses was beyond doubt.

“Soar to the Sky’s” story was exceptional, so it was not difficult for it to become popular. Through this, it could be seen that it was possible for it to be worth 2 billion yuan.

He Wei turned his head to look at Yun Xiangxiang. The latter nodded, convinced of Wei Shanwen’s sincerity.

“Alright, two billion is the minimum,” He Wei agreed. “Let’s talk about the specific details...”

Yun Xiangxiang was listening from the side. Most of what He Wei had asked were simple requests, and the only thing he was adamant about was that it could only be started next April at the earliest.

It was New Year’s Day at the beginning of February, and school would start in mid-February. Yun Xiangxiang would have to attend classes for a month no matter what.

After the discussion, He Wei brought Wei Shanwen out for dinner, but Xue Yu and Yun Xiangxiang remained.

Yun Xiangxiang returned to the hotel to study. The entire time, she asked Song Mian about the questions she did not understand.

After studying for a while, she asked, “Will you be attending the Tang family’s annual banquet?”

“Not necessarily.” Song Mian didn’t give a definite answer. “It depends on whether I’m back or not, but I might go if I’m back. Have they invited you?”

Yun Xiangxiang didn’t hear about the Tang family’s annual banquet from him, so the Tang family must have invited her alone.

“Yes, I asked Tang Suran to do me a favor. She submitted the follow-up documents to me today, so I mentioned it,” Yun Xiangxiang replied. “I didn’t give a definite answer, either. I said that I would decide later on.”

At that time, she thought that Song Mian might not be able to participate. If the latter didn’t go, then there would be no point for her to go.

Without Song Mian, there was no way for her to interact with the rich and powerful families.

“Since my girlfriend is so enthusiastic about me, I’ll definitely come back early.” Song Mian leaned against the French window.

Today, he was wearing a beige V-neck sweater. Behind him were the blue sky and the Golden Castle that looked like a pile of sand. The afternoon sun shone down from behind him, making him look extremely radiant.

Yun Xiangxiang was lost for a moment, but after being teased by Song Mian, she immediately came back to her senses. “Yes, yes, I always look forward to seeing you. When will you come back?”

Song Mian didn’t expect Yun Xiangxiang to not be angry this time, so he thought about it seriously and said, “I’m not sure yet.”

“How many places do you have to go?” Yun Xiangxiang thought about how Song Mian had been traveling around the world during the past two months.

They talked every day, but Song Mian would always be at a different place.

“Not a lot, but I received a difficult patient two days ago. I plan to go and take a look,” Song Mian explained.

“What patient?” Yun Xiangxiang asked casually.

“A friend with a gunshot wound. The bullet is in the nerve tissue. I only saw images of the wound, so I still have to go and discuss with the patient whether or not I can perform the surgery.” Song Mian did not hide anything from Yun Xiangxiang.

“A gunshot wound?” Yun Xiangxiang’s pupils constricted slightly.

She chose to stop asking. Although guns were not prohibited in Europe and Africa, someone who had suffered from a gunshot wound would definitely not be an ordinary person.

“You have to be careful... of your safety.” Yun Xiangxiang gently reminded him.

Song Mian knew how to handle things better than she did. The things that he would intervene in were definitely things that he had to do. If there were other hidden dangers in the future, he would also take precautions in advance or put out the danger before it could turn into something uncontrollable.

Originally, Song Mian had planned to tell Yun Xiangxiang everything, but his girlfriend didn’t ask anymore. To Chinese people like Yun Xiangxiang, gunshot wounds seemed like a distant thing after firearms had been banned.

In Europe and Africa, however, it was not an uncommon sight. Song Mian did not plan to continue. Since she did not ask, there was no need to let her imagination run wild.

“Don’t worry, rest early,” Song Mian said gently. “Good night.”

Yun Xiangxiang happily hung up the video call. She didn’t ask much; she knew that Song Mian’s career was destined to be like this.

Before he met her, it had always been like this. She couldn’t force him to change anything after meeting her.

He was fine in the past, so Yun Xiangxiang believed that he could be safe and sound now. With this thought in mind, she slept very peacefully.

The next day, they gathered together in the production team. After the scene with the alarm system was finished, Xie Manliang was smiling all day long. He treated the production team very gently, and he gave the crew better food. Of course, it made them more energetic.

The progress quickly caught up. They still had a few scenes left, and they were all car racing scenes.

After they finished shooting, they could leave Hubei province. Yun Xiangxiang calculated according to the script, and if nothing unexpected happened, the filming would end in five days.

Yun Xiangxiang worked even harder before her exams and urged Xue Yu along the way.

The two main actors were focused and serious, and the others had no reason to slack off. They were trying to lead the entire crew to be more motivated.

Even though they were already motivated, Yun Xiangxiang still hoped that they would be more motivated and return to Beijing one day earlier so that she could feel at ease.

Yun Xiangxiang stood at the side and watched the scene in excitement; she had never seen a large-scale car wreck in a film before.

She had heard of how to film it, but this was the first time she would see it live.

Other than the exquisite props from before, there was also a real car being staged. This scene was where Xue Yu’s car would drive over and crash into a police car, causing it to flip a few times in mid-air before crashing onto the ground. It was a scene that would show a total car wreck.

During the filming process, the camera was pieced together. First, Xue Yu’s car drove over and stopped at the crash site.

His car gently bumped into the police car that was about to be scrapped. The police car was tied up with a rope and controlled by a machine. It was pulled by the rope and soared into the air, flipping over a few times in the process. This scene was meticulously recorded, then the rope was released and it crashed onto the ground.

Afterward, Xue Yu’s car would drive past the car’s wreck on the ground. When the post-editing was done, the audience would see the actors’ expressions and special effects. It would be a very hot car crash scene.

Yun Xiangxiang watched the scene with great interest. In fact, there were some parts of the filming that were quite fun. Those who didn’t understand how it worked would definitely fail to shoot such particularly cool scenes.
