Chapter 62 Meeting Humans Again
Fang Yun’s body was hidden in the bushes under the big banyan tree. He looked at the direction of the sound from the openings in the bushes.
He heard the sound of people talking from there. Sure enough, not long after, a group of people appeared in that direction.
This is a team of 30 people. All of them are wearing a pair of waist-high rubber shoes. These shoes are very tightly sealed, waterproof and non-slip. Of course, they have a more important function, that is to prevent insects bites, especially the poisonous one.
Seven of the 30 people are girls, all in their early twenties. Others are men of various ages, both young and old. One of them looks like a guide, his accent is a bit different from the rest and his skin is very rough and tanned.
Additionally, five of the guys were pulling horses behind them. On the horses back, there are various objects.
Fang Yun was examining this group of people. He watched as this group of people stood on the edge of the river, acting together to take down the various objects on the horses back and put them on the ground.
Only now did Fang Yun discover that the things on the horse’s back were various cameras and equipment.
”Is that… a film crew?”
Fang Yun was amazed. He heard the words “actor” and “line” a lot of times from that group of people.
Thinking of this, Fang Yun interest was picked. He decided to stay here for a while to watch them.
This filming crew actually went this deep into the forest to film, they are really dedicated.
……
“The guide said that there are crocodiles in this swamp. Wang Yang, take the machine to sweep the water, if there are any crocodiles, drive them away!”
A 50-year-old man said pointed to a man in the crowd then said to him. After that, he turned to the crowd and started yelling at them.
“Everyone has to work hard, we are going to stay here for a long time.”
“You don’t have to be so polite, mister Feng.”
Everyone else smiled.
At this time, the young man named Wang Yang picked up a device from a horse’s back.
This device has quite the odd look, probably some kind of machine.
He has some kind of battery on his back and two bamboo poles in his hand. The bamboo pole was hollow in the middle with a wire passing through the hole. One end of the wire was connected to the battery and the other end was connected to the two poles.
Wang Yang cautiously walked towards the marsh, looking a little nervous.
However, fear wasn’t apparent on his face, after all this isn’t the first time he did jobs like this.
When he reached the edge of the marsh, he pressed the switch of the machine and stuck the bamboo pole in the water. Sparks flashed at the end of the bamboo poles.
”Zzz.”
A light buzzing sounded as the bamboo touched the water.
Small fish floated, belly firest, on the water.
The other people on the shore looked somewhat nervous. After all, there are crocodiles in this marsh. If the electric equipment fails to drive the crocodiles away, or even worse, irritate them. Then they may end up in danger.
In the crowd, two people took out an anesthetic gun and pointed at the marsh, ready to shoot at any possible danger.
However, after waiting for a while, apart from the dead fish on the water, the marsh was still very calm.
Everyone looked at each other in wonder.
Didn’t the guide say that there are crocodiles in this marsh?
They had created such a big noise on the shore, but there isn’t even a shadow of a crocodile.
They closely looked. The bubbles on the water surface are the one that Wang Yan created. Apart from that, the water surface is completely calm, with no trace of crocodiles at all.
Everyone threw a confused look at the guide.
The guide also looked very confused. He is sure that crocodile used to live here.
“Oh, maybe the crocodiles have migrated to other places.”
The old man known as Feng Zhan said with a smile, clapping his hands, he urged his crew.
“Well, since there are no crocodiles here, then we will start filming.”
”I want all of the personnel ready in 5 minutes.”
Hearing that, all of the personnel got to work.
After seeing this scene, Feng Zhan located a stone and sat down. Feeling the pain in his back, He stretched his waist and limbs. His face showing a tired look.
His name is Feng Zhan, a well-known big director. However, most of the films he shot in the last two years were mediocre at most, causing his fame to decline. This time, he is dead set on making a hot film to restore his fame.
It was his idea to go deep into a virgin forest to capture the most authentic scene.
This mountain road was not easy to climb. They have been walking for many days causing him, a pampered director, to suffer a lot. But this is the road he picked up, so he could only grit his teeth and continue walking.
”Oh, Feng brother, your “Giants invasion” will definitely be popular. The script is so good, the shooting location is so authentic, everyone will absolutely love it.”
A man with a cap walked over to Fang Zhan and handed him a bottle of mineral water.
Feng Zhan took the water bottle then smiled and said.
“Well, let’s hope that you are right, but I don’t really understand the current movie market, so I can only hope that this movie gets popular.”
He took a sip of water and immediately said.
“Xiao Long, after this trip end. You must do a very good job in copywriting and advertising. I noticed that all the popular movies in the past year always have one feature.”
“That is their advertisement and promotion is very well done. They weren’t even released yet, but they were already crazy popular.”
“The popularity of the film has to be high, the theatre must be packed the moment the movie is released. Finally, as long as the film quality isn’t too bad. The box office will only get higher and higher.”
Hearing this, the man in the cap nodded and patted his chest.
“Brother Feng, you don’t have to worry, after this trip, I will think about how to advertise this movie.”
Feng Zhan smiled, stood up and patted the cap man’s shoulder, then walked over to the side of the marsh.
All the equipment have been assembled and all the relevant personnel is in their place.
A girl was standing on the edge of the marsh at the moment. She took off her rubber shoes, leaving only shorts and a tight T-shirt.
However, her clothes are obviously were treated, appearing to be ragged with many stains.
Her face also has makeup, looking just like she fled from the dirty marsh.
”Not bad.”
Feng Zhan nodded.
“Xiaoyu is almost the exact same image as ‘Zhao Xue’ I conceived.”
”Thank you, director Feng.”
Chen Xiaoyu smiled sweetly and said with gratitude.
She is just a third-rate star. She didn’t expect to be invited by renown directed like director Feng, so she is very determined to take this opportunity.
However, there is only one thing that made her depressed.
The filming environment is too difficult.
It’s actually a virgin forest filled with a variety of wild beasts. More importantly, she actually has to go to a swamp filled with crocodiles to film.
However, Thinking about the attention and popularity that she will get after this movie was out. She suppressed her emotions to the deepest part of her mind.
If she shows depression on her face, then she may cause the director dissatisfaction.
”Okay, start shooting now!”
Hearing the shout of Feng Zhan, Chen Xiaoyu on the edge of the swamp took a deep breath, then walked into the marsh resolutely. When the water level almost reached her waist, she stopped moving, then turned back.
Not far away, the cameraman stood on the shore and pointed the camera at her.
”Yes, just stand there.”
Feng Zhan commanded on the edge of the swamp.
“Well, Xiaoyu, now pretend that in front of you, a giant anaconda is staring at you.”
”Your eyes must be concentrated, giving people the feeling that you are staring at something.”
”What you should express is the state of being surprised, your expression should not change abruptly, there must be a gradual process.”
Chen Xiaoyu stood in the marsh. According to Feng Zhan’s instructions, she stared right at the big banyan tree not far away, pretending that there is something there that caught her attention.
However, her body suddenly stiffened, after which she started trembling. She fixedly looked at the big banyan tree in front of her, horror was showing in her face.
”Yes! Right! It’s this expression!”
After seeing Chen Xiaoyu’s performance, Feng Zhan showed a touch of excitement on his face. He felt that he did not choose the wrong person. Chen Xiaoyu’s performance at this moment was impeccable.
In the water marsh, the fear on Chen Xiaoyu face was growing more and more. Seeming to finally reach the limit of her tolerance. Xiaoyu let out a loud scream.
”Ahhhh!!!”
