The next scene was for Mo Wenwei to appear, and the content to be filmed was roughly Mo Wenwei filming on set, with Xingye, as an extra, suddenly adding his own scene, bursting out, and then being scolded by Mo Wenwei.
The content was roughly like this.
Seeing Mo Wenwei, Su Han also felt a sense of unfamiliarity and familiarity welling up.
"Long time no see, Old Mo!"
Mo Wenwei was all smiles, even though her relationship with Xingye didn't bear fruit and they had parted ways.
She was still very dignified and generous.
After all, when Xiang Huaqiang and Xingye were in opposition, Mo Wenwei herself stood on Xingye's side.
She genuinely admired Xingye from the bottom of her heart, which allowed her to support Xingye unconditionally like this.
From this, it could be seen that Mo Wenwei was a friend worth making.
"Long time no see, Old Su!"
"You've gotten handsomer."
Su Han slicked his oily hair, his face beaming with joy: "Really?"
Xingye watched them tease each other from the side, chuckling along.
Then, Mo Wenwei slightly softened her smile and looked at Xingye with concern.
"How have you been lately?"
Xingye nodded: "Mm, pretty good."
"Alright, let's stop catching up. Once this part is done, we can all go eat."
Su Han reminded them, urging them on.
"Come on, hurry up, let's start shooting!"
Mo Wenwei looked at Xingye with surprise, then turned to Su Han.
"What's this, you've become the director?"
"The assistant director!"
"I'm here to learn and lay the foundation for my future path."
"Assistant director?"
Mo Wenwei was quite surprised.
"This is impressive."
"Assistant director... tsk tsk tsk."
"Investing and being an assistant director. Mr. Su, Mr. Su, I didn't expect you to take off so suddenly!"
Mo Wenwei's praise was continuous and effusive, completely elevating Su Han.
Su Han listened with great comfort, his face radiating joy.
Although Xingye was a tyrant on set, he was a man of few words. Even as Su Han and Mo Wenwei chatted and laughed, he just stood by and smiled.
"Alright, let's go. We'll chat after we finish filming."
Then, the filming began.
This scene required extras, Mo Wenwei, Xingye, and Su Han.
It was a play within a play.
It started with Su Han calling out.
"Lights, lights in position!"
"Props, props ready!"
"Actors, prepare!"
Xingye changed into the costume for the extras.
"Sorry, director!"
"Based on the character's background and personality, I want the performance rhythm to be a bit playful and with some conflict."
"How's that?"
"Okay!"
"Let's roll!"
"Rolling!"
"Scene three, take four, first!"
After the clapperboard was hit, with a bang, Xingye was hit by a bullet, blood splattered from his chest, and he fell to the ground.
Then, Mo Wenwei, holding a wire with her left hand and a gun in her right, unleashed a barrage of gunfire at the extras on set.
She landed from the wire, holding guns in both hands, and stylishly began her protagonist's fight scene.
A continuous series of bangs, unstoppable.
Finally, Mo Wenwei plunged a dagger into the enemy's abdomen, and the enemy collapsed.
"Xingye, you can come out now!"
Su Han shouted, and Xingye, who had been lying on the ground, got up.
He stumbled, barely able to stand steady.
"Cut!"
The director in the play called cut.
Mo Wenwei looked at the director in surprise: "What for?"
The director pointed at Xingye: "Who is that guy behind?"
"Aren't you dead?"
Then Su Han's character ran up and approached Xingye.
"What are you doing? Aren't you already dead?"
"What's going on with you?"
The director walked over: "Why can't you just die?"
Xingye looked at the performance earnestly and spoke nonsensically:
"Because the character I designed is a bit playful, so my inner monologue is that I don't want to die yet."
"You don't want to die, but you have to die!"
"Actually, I'm already dead. Give me a little more time, and I'll be completely dead."
Mo Wenwei: "Hey!"
"Do you know how many frames of film are used in one second?"
"It's twenty-four frames, Sister Juan!"
"Then do you know how many seconds that last shot was?"
Xingye frowned: "About a minute."
Mo Wenwei said unhappily: "Then do you know how many seconds, how many frames of film, and how much money were wasted because you didn't want to die?!"
"And how much time and effort from the staff?!"
Mo Wenwei's emotions escalated, speaking the most ferocious words with the most composed expression, scolding with utmost harshness.
Xingye panicked for a moment, forcing himself to put on an awkward smile.
"I implore you, if you're going to be an extra, at least find a professional!"
"Change the actor and reshoot!"
"Cut!"
"Perfect!"
"Passed!"
"Mr. Mo, your performance was great!"
"Thank you, Mr. Su!"
"Xingye, amazing!"
"You did well too!"
In fact, the opening scene of "King of Comedy" is said to be a true portrayal of Xingye's past.
He simply incorporated the experiences he had as an extra into this movie.
"Come on!! Time to eat!"
"Let's have lunch together later."
"Mm-hmm, let's eat together!"
During the crew's break, Su Han, Xingye, and Mo Wenwei gathered for lunch.
