Chapter 14
Just as Wens was trying to put himself in his mind,
Chen Xiao suddenly heard a very low sneer from behind him.
Because he had used the system's physical improvement potion, his hearing was far better than that of ordinary people. The other staff members did not hear this sound.
"What a joke, filming in a swimming pool, not even in the sea, to experience despair? Bullshit, what a rubbish commercial."
Chen Xiao turned his head and looked.
On the shore more than ten meters away, an extra covered his mouth and murmured to his companions, his eyes full of disdain.
"Last year, I went out to sea with a cargo ship. A storm arose at night. Four or five-meter-high waves hit the cargo ship, causing it to lose control and run aground and sink.……"
The voice of this extra was trembling, and his eyes were red.
He raised his hand to wipe his face, sniffed and continued:"Those stars who have never experienced it, can experience nothing in this broken swimming pool! How can they understand the feeling of being on the verge of death?"
The extras looked at Chen Xiao and Ruth with resentment, and happened to meet Chen Xiao's eyes. He felt guilty and looked away immediately.
Chen Xiao didn't say anything, and looked at Ruth.
Ruth frowned slightly, her eyes were red, and she stared at the water in a daze,"Director Chen, I should be able to"
"OK"Chen Xiao slowly exited the swimming pool, waved to the stage manager and the cameraman, and signaled to prepare for filming.
The extras and Leo entered the water.
Chen Xiao sat in front of the monitor, observing the two people's emotions, and said in a deep voice:"Action!""
……
In the monitor,
Rose lay on the wooden board, holding Jack's hand tightly, and blinked heavily,"I feel so cold."
Her eyes were affectionate and tired. She was as tired as a dead leaf hanging on a tree, and she wanted to give up struggling.
"Listen, Rose."Jack's voice was trembling, but gentle and powerful.
He stared at Rose,"You will get out of danger safely."
"You will live a good life, with children and grandchildren around you, you will watch them grow up, and you will enjoy your old age in a warm bed."
"Not here, not tonight, not in this way, do you understand?"
Ruth's lips trembled slightly, tears flashed in her eyes.
She lowered her head slightly, closed her eyes, and said a little helplessly:"I have no feeling in my body."
Jack frowned, his face full of anxiety.
He swam forward, with a pleading look in his eyes.
""Ruth, winning that ticket is the luckiest thing in my life."
Jack's frown slowly relaxed, revealing a happy smile,"It made me meet you, and I am grateful for that. I am very grateful."
Ruth raised her head, stared at Jack, smiled, and her eyes were full of affection. The look of almost giving up just now disappeared.
The two of them laughed softly with trembling voices.
Jack held Ruth's hands with both hands.
"You have……"
He took a breath and pulled himself together.
"You have to do me a favor."
He stared at Rose firmly, as if he wanted to engrave his thoughts in Rose's mind, and said in a resolute tone,"Promise me that you will try your best to live, no matter what happens, no matter how...desperate, never give up." The freezing cold sea water eroded Jack's consciousness.
Rose felt Jack shaking violently.
She propped up her body slightly with her arms, her lips trembling rapidly, her eyes firm, but with a hint of fear and helplessness.
Jack tried his best to keep himself conscious, his eyes were as firm as steel, yet affectionate.
He continued tremblingly:"Ruth, promise me now. Never break your promise."
Ruth stared at him, her eyes filled with tears,"I promise you. Jack, I will never give up."
Jack's eyes were firm, and he repeated again:"Never give up"
""Jack, I will never give up." Ruth's voice was filled with pleading, as if she hoped to keep Jack with her promise.
Jack kissed the back of her hand and smiled with relief.
He lowered his head, breathing more and more rapidly, and pressed his forehead against Ruth's, blowing hot air on her hand.
Ruth lowered her head and held Jack's hand tightly. The coldness around her made her cheeks tremble.
……
Three or four seconds later
"" Pass! Very good!"
Chen Xiao stood up and led the applause.
The director of photography, art director, makeup boss, and extras also applauded.
Many people had tears in their eyes.
It was amazing.
The lines and performances were amazing!
Leo and Wins acted very vividly, as if they were really facing a desperate situation.
Half an hour ago, Wins' performance was a bit bland.
With ten minutes of guidance from Director Chen, she acted out the feeling of getting strength from her lover, wanting to keep her lover but not knowing what to do, and having to agree to let him put her mind at ease.
Everyone present was heartbroken. They couldn't help but imagine , if you encounter natural disasters or man-made disasters...
In the face of such a desperate situation, will you also muster all your strength to firmly encourage your loved one?
Or do you have the courage to live with your loved one's wishes?
Thinking of this, everyone shuddered.
By the swimming pool, Wins had not yet finished his role, hugging his agent and crying.
Leo also covered his eyes and secretly shed tears.
At this moment, a cry of unbearable pain was heard, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Chen Xiao looked in the direction of the sound.
By the shore of the swimming pool, an extra was lying on the ground, crying uncontrollably, lowering his head and pounding the floor tiles.
"Why...why did you give me the lifebuoy? It's so hard to survive...……"
His three companions also squatted beside him, weeping and comforting him.
One of them turned around and explained in a choked voice:
"Sorry, we are crew members, he has experienced a shipwreck before. Sorry to bother you."
The crying voice pierced the hearts of everyone present.
It is really a natural disaster, life and death are unpredictable...
Many people thought of Jack's line.
Life depends on luck.
Life is a gift, I don't want to waste it.
You don't know what the next hand will be, you have to learn to accept life.
Make every day worthwhile...
Everyone fell silent.
Half a minute later.
Chen Xiao glanced at everyone, clapped his hands, and broke the silence.
"It's time to call it a day! Thank you for your hard work, everyone, have a good rest, we will continue at 7pm."
The staff started to move, quietly packing up the props and the venue.
……
As soon as Chen Xiao walked out of the studio,
Zeng Wei came forward.
He looked inside the studio and said with some concern,"Director Chen, what happened in there? She was crying so miserably. Did the actors have a conflict?"
