Chapter 24 Hero Saves the Beauty
Chapter 24 Hero Saves the Beauty
Once she arrived at the film set, Gao Wen no longer needed to disguise herself and revealed her true face, and of course, no one stopped her.
Chen Jiang followed Gao Wen and also mingled in.
They had only been inside the film set for a short while when a middle-aged woman wearing a red coat hurried over, her face showing some anxiety.
"Wenwen, you're finally back! The director has been waiting for you for ages."
"Hurry up and go there, or I won't be responsible if he curses at you."
"I understand, I'll be right there!" Gao Wen's expression changed drastically, and she quickened her pace. But after taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something, turned back, and pulled Chen Jiang to the woman's side.
"Chen Jiang, this is my agent, Sister Qing."
"Sister Qing, this is my friend Chen Jiang. He brought me here and wants to try his hand at being an extra. You can just give him any role... I'll head over now, you two chat!"
After saying that, Gao Wen quickly ran away, leaving Chen Jiang still standing there and Qing Jie, who was frowning and scrutinizing Chen Jiang.
Feeling a little uncomfortable under Qingjie's gaze, Chen Jiang took the initiative to greet her:
"Hello, Sister Qing."
"Hello." Sister Qing's attitude was neither warm nor cold, her eyes scanning Chen Jiang up and down, wondering what this man who had suddenly appeared next to Gao Wen was all about.
"Are you Gao Wen's friend?"
"Well, sort of. To be precise, I'm a friend of Gao Wen's friend. I just happened to bring her here." Chen Jiang was just here to join in the fun and experience what it's like to be an extra; he had no intention of causing trouble.
"Oh, I see."
Sister Qing's expression softened. In her opinion, Chen Jiang really shouldn't have any connection with Gao Wen.
However, Gao Wen is a rising star that the company is currently promoting, and absolutely no mistakes can be made.
However, since they are just friends, there is no problem. Although they are assertive, Gao Wen should still be given the freedom she deserves. They are just helping to keep an eye on her.
"Then I'll go and tell the assistant director for you. You wait here for a while; someone should contact you soon."
Sister Qing nodded slightly, gave Chen Jiang a smile, and then turned and left.
Chen Jiang didn't mind. He thanked the other person and waited for them to leave. Then, he looked around and found a flower bed nearby to sit down. He picked up his phone and started watching videos with great interest.
I don't know why, but usually I see videos of beautiful women, but today the two videos I saw were about accidents happening on set.
Chen Jiang felt a bit uneasy watching it, so he simply stopped watching and prepared to take some photos of himself instead.
Before I could take more than a few photos, a man with a thick beard and a name tag around his neck walked over and asked, "Are you Chen Jiang?"
"Yes, that's me." Chen Jiang stood up.
"I'm Zhang Han, the assistant director of our crew. Sister Qing has already spoken to me. Come with me, I'll take you to get dressed."
After saying that, the bearded man led Chen Jiang to the changing room next door, quickly took out a set of clothes that looked rather simple and unassuming, and tossed it to Chen Jiang: "Put this on."
"Okay." Chen Jiang didn't mind looking ugly. He quickly changed his clothes, looked in the mirror, and looked like a simple-minded country bumpkin from the end of the last century.
The bearded man watched from the side, and after seeing him change his clothes, he smiled with a hint of satisfaction and continued:
"Since you were arranged by Sister Qing, you're one of us. The role I've assigned you is a relative of the female lead. You'll be watching and trying to break up the fight between the female lead and her father. You won't have any lines, but you'll get to show your face. That should be fine, right?"
Chen Jiang smiled:
"What problem could there be? I'll just follow your instructions."
The bearded man smiled but didn't say anything more.
"That's good. Come with me, it'll be your turn soon."
After saying that, he walked out of the dressing room first, and Chen Jiang followed behind. When they arrived at the filming location, they found that it had been almost completely set up.
The actors and everything else were ready, and the extras were all hiding to the side, just like him. But Gao Wen was nowhere to be seen. From the chatter of the people around him, it seemed that the reason filming hadn't started yet was because they were waiting for her.
However, it didn't take long. In less than ten minutes, Gao Wen, who had changed into an 8s or 90s outfit, came out and went to the camera to prepare for filming.
"Extras, get up there and take your positions."
Chen Jiang was naturally among these extras, and was arranged to be quite proper, right behind Gao Wen.
Gao Wen naturally noticed Chen Jiang. She looked at Chen Jiang, who had changed into a simple and honest outfit, and a smile flashed in her eyes. However, it was not appropriate to greet him at this moment, so she just nodded to him.
Chen Jiang didn't mind and stood obediently beside her, waiting for it to begin.
"Let's begin."
The director was already behind the camera, and after giving the order, filming began.
Chen Jiang naturally didn't need to worry about this, because it wasn't his turn to show up yet; Gao Wen was currently performing an argument scene with an actor who played her father.
According to the following plot, the argument between the two sides should get more and more heated, Gao Wen's father in the drama should be anxious to take action, and then Chen Jiang and his group of minor relatives should step in to break up the fight.
Logically, Chen Jiang's attention should have been on the argument at this point, but perhaps because he had just seen several videos of accidents, his attention was now focused on what was above him.
It wasn't for any other reason than that, ever since he stood there, he couldn't help but feel that the chandelier above Gao Wen's head looked somewhat unstable, as if it might fall down at any moment.
But we're filming right now, so maybe I shouldn't be talking...?
Chen Jiang was struggling with his decision when he caught a glimpse of Gao Wen walking under the chandelier. Coincidentally, what he had just predicted actually came true.
The chandelier overhead actually trembled slightly, and looked like it was about to fall down.
At this moment, Chen Jiang naturally didn't care about filming anymore; human life was at stake, especially since it was his friend. He darted out from the crowd, grabbed Gao Wen, and pulled her back.
"Be careful!"
"What are you doing???"
The crew watching the filming had no idea that an extra would appear in the shot. The director was about to get angry when he heard a creak. The chandelier, which should have been sitting quietly on the ceiling, suddenly fell down and hit the ground with a loud thud!
bump------!!
The shattered pieces scattered all over the ground, also silencing the words they were about to say.
"What happened?"
Gao Wen was completely bewildered, looking like she didn't know where she was or who she was.
She only remembered that one second she was reciting her lines, the next second she was suddenly pulled to the side, and then the chandelier above her head fell down.
In other words, if she hadn't been pulled away immediately... Gao Wen's face turned deathly pale.
"Wenwen, are you alright?"
The onlookers finally came to their senses, and Qingjie, Gao Wen's manager, rushed to her side to quickly check on her condition.
Fortunately, Chen Jiang reacted quickly, and Gao Wen was indeed unharmed.
The director and crew over there also realized what was happening. They first found the production crew and gave them a good scolding, and then quickly came over to comfort and care for Gao Wen.
Chen Jiang had already quietly stepped aside by this time, even though he was the one who had saved him.
But he didn't intend to take credit. After all, saving people was his first reaction, and Gao Wen was his friend. It was just a favor, nothing special.
He wondered if it was just his imagination, but even after he had retreated to the edge of the crowd, he could still faintly feel a gaze on him.
Subconsciously following his instincts, he looked back and, through a gap in the crowd, met the gaze of Gao Wen, who remained silent in the center of the crowd... Chen Jiang returned a bright smile.
Gao Wen's expression, which had been silent all along, finally showed some change.
