Chapter 1130: 1106. Location
Generally, in male-targeted ‘level-up’ novels, the protagonist always has an antagonist who is wealthy, handso, smart, capable, but with a bad heart.
And at this mont, with chewing marks all over their big red sweet potatoes, Qin Yun and He Kuang could only wish they could transform into the protagonists and stomp Lun Chuan underfoot like a stepping stone!
Who could be so wicked?
Knowing full well that the sweet potatoes they baked weren’t fully cooked, yet watching them eat with a smirk and being sarcastic!
The pair of poor souls looked at each other while holding the sweet potatoes: “This… what do we do?”
Raw sweet potatoes are tasty, and cooked sweet potatoes are also good, but half-raw sweet potatoes… taste really weird!
“Then just don’t eat them.”
Qiaoqiao, who entered the house at so point, now placed a big red bucket in front of them: “Uncles, eating half-cooked sweet potatoes can make you fart a lot, could you please not eat them?”
“These can be given to pigs.”
He asked sincerely, with eyes full of “You two are so greedy” reproach. When Qin Yun and He Kuang awkwardly put down the sweet potatoes, he added:
“But since you’ve already eaten so much… Uncles, if you need to fart, rember to go outside to the yard, okay?”
He tightened his face, sternly advising: “Absolutely don’t fart under the covers!”
Lun Chuan could no longer hold back, and laughed out loud: “Don’t worry, Qiaoqiao, they’ll definitely not do it under the covers—your two uncles love to sleep with their heads covered.”
They had ntioned it themselves during an event they all attended, and Lun Chuan had quite a good mory.
Qiaoqiao imagined the scene, wrinkling his nose and holding his breath subconsciously.
Qin Yun: …
He Kuang: …
Okay, okay! Their visit was a mistake, right!
Song Tan, on the other hand, was afraid they might get embarrassed, and laughed: “Alright, alright, don’t eat anymore! Dinner will be served soon, if you finish these sweet potatoes, what will you eat tonight?”
Missing lunch was bad enough, but missing dinner too would truly be regrettable, wouldn’t it?
Her attitude was utterly casual, as if this matter wasn’t worth ntioning, and coupled with her good looks, her words seed even more reasonable.
Only then did Qin Yun and He Kuang heave a sigh of relief, quickly tossing the sweet potatoes into the bucket.
…
anwhile, a bored crew mber browsing Weibo saw the video and first burst into laughter, then was suddenly inspired and imdiately forwarded the video to the group.
“Look at this Riverside Beach, the cliffs on both sides and the reeds, the sunlight… doesn’t it look just like a scene we have?”
Everyone was a 5G surfer, quickly watching the video, they first laughed out loud, then, as if realizing sothing, praised:
“Not bad, not bad!”
The director also felt delighted, because this scene looked untouched by humans, and it could be used freely, proving it’s not a famous spot.
Then they can use it as the real scene filming gimmick, but without having to pay like you would renting a scenic spot…
Perfect!
“Quick, quick, quick, send a private ssage and ask!”
“Do we need to send a private ssage?” Everyone laughed: “These two authors know our original author! I’ll send a ssage and ask now!”
…
And back at Lao Song’s family, Lun Chuan looked at the ssage on his phone, helplessly—when it cos to filming or anything, Song Tan wouldn’t agree.
But he forwarded the ssage to Song Tan, and said: “Generally, a location scouting team will have several backups, so your refusal wouldn’t affect them much.”
He guessed right, Song Tan wasn’t very interested—if a film crew were to co over rowdily, what if they scared the cattle and sheep later?
But Qin Yun and He Kuang’s eyes lit up: “That’s possible! Why didn’t I think of that? Isn’t the knife-testing platform in your book such a scene!”
“Yes, yes, just like that! A seemingly ordinary reed field, where the protagonist needs during sunset, with golden reflections, to break the waves and splash water on the high cliff with a single slash…”
As He Kuang spoke, he began to envision the scene, clearly getting excited from reading the book.
Even soone as composed as Lun Chuan couldn’t help but feel uneasy when being told the story face-to-face like that, so he simply shook his head and said:
“There are many places to choose from, there’s no need to insist on this one.”
Yet Qin Yun worried about his brother’s book—even though they were teasing friends, with insincere intentions, they wouldn’t have been friends for so many years.
So he persuaded genuinely: “I know, you previously ntioned going to a 5A scenic spot to film… but how expensive is that?”
This epic saga needed to be fild in three parts, the producer was surprisingly reliable, but the shortcoming was that they split the investnt over three parts, making it a bit tight on budget.
Song Tan’s place might be expensive, but surely not as costly as a 5A scenic spot.
He Kuang also nodded: “Moreover, that scenic area has already been boosted by Douyin, and it doesn’t need promotional help from a movie. If you plan on filming a real scene there, money talks may fall through…”
Song Tan roughly understood, and at this mont, she comprehended:
Thinking it over, she still nodded: “Then just send the address over—specific requirents can be discussed once confird.
She aid to not make Lun Chuan be awkwardly caught in the middle.
Seeing them settle matters with a few words, Lun Chuan was rendered helpless:
“Once my copyright was sold, it’s no longer linked to —film crew investnts aren’t my concern either.”
He’s rely a temporary consultant, there’s even a separate screenwriter, why worry unnecessarily?
Qin Yun rolled his eyes: “As if I don’t know you? Just say how much you invested!”
Among the three brothers, Lun Chuan was the best at spending money, and coincidentally the best at making money!
Otherwise, when early online literature copyrights were fetched for at most a few hundred thousand, how could he afford a house in the Imperial City?
Unlike them, two diocre companions who flamboyantly bought villas once they beca affluent, but had to carry mortgages everywhere else…
Lun Chuan was, for once, speechless.
Song Tan finally understood and helplessly said: “With you two singing in unison, if I didn’t know our place isn’t famous or valuable, I would’ve thought you’re just backing him to convince
to agree!”
She straightforwardly said: “Alright, I agree! Co and film, when the ti cos, it’s just a matter of herding the cattle and sheep into the pen—surely they’re not filming for months, right?”
Lun Chuan wanted to say sothing, but Song Tan was too carefree, refusing now felt unnecessarily distant and polite.
After pondering, he could only say: “The crew progresses quickly, if everything goes smoothly, it shouldn’t take more than three days for this scene.”
“Huh?” This ti, it was Song Tan’s turn to be dumbfounded.
In today’s dostic entertainnt, infamous for its slapdash attitude, is there really a crew willing to travel back and forth thousands of miles for just one scene?
Would the crew agree? Would the actors agree?
Qin Yun boasted: “That’s what you don’t know—Arctic Circle Film and Television Company, they’re so famous! They’re great at training actors. All the actors they hire have proper acting skills but aren’t famous, with many newcors.”
They’re really effective!
