Early March, Yunnan Province, the crew of "The Long Season".

"Teacher Ma, Teacher Jiao's makeup has been done."

Tan Yue nodded and said: "Let each department check its own equipment."

What we are shooting now is a scene that took place in 2016. Ma Guoliang and Jiao Cheng spent several hours every day putting on old-age makeup, especially Ma Guoliang, because the character's body needs to become fatter and requires physical makeup to be completed.

When I first put on this makeup, the crew gathered around to watch. It was like a huge change. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to tell.

Now everyone is familiar with it.

After Fan Shan, Ma Guoliang, and Jiao Cheng entered the shooting location, they began to act together while Tan Yue stood aside and watched.

The three of them are all veteran actors. They know how to play their roles well and how to express their characters. They also know what kind of effect Tan Yue wants.

"Director Tan, we are ready." Ma Guoliang said.

Tan Yue made an 'ok' gesture, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Ready, start shooting right away."

With the current state of the crew's integration, the roles of these three actors can basically be passed through as long as they don't laugh out loud.

The three old men gathered together, and with the unique charm of Northeastern dialect, the sound of laughter could often be heard on the set.

Tan Yue was still looking at the monitor intently, and had already started shooting. The camera was moving, lighting, sound recording... The staff in each position were doing their jobs carefully.

Ma Guoliang, Fan Shan and Jiao Cheng competed with each other and enjoyed the fun of acting.

After filming this scene, it was already lunch time.

Everyone gathered together, eating and chatting, and everyone's face showed excitement and happiness.

"Is the filming going to wrap up this afternoon?"

"There are still two final scenes on the schedule, and they will be completed today if nothing unexpected happens."

"Don't worry, there won't be any accidents. It's all the fault of Teacher Ma and the others."

"Fuck, if you said that, I would pack my things and get ready to go home."

"Young man, don't get excited. We will give you time to pack your things."

Several people laughed out loud. They had been together for a long time and often joked together.

"It's been a long time since I've been home. I'm really homesick now. This is the first time I haven't been home for the New Year."

"In our line of work, it's normal not to go home for the New Year. You'll get used to it in the future."

Seeing that I could go home, I couldn't contain my excitement.

...

...

At about one o'clock in the afternoon, we continued shooting.

Through the monitor, you can see Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan entering their roles and speaking their lines. Many staff members around them covered their mouths for fear of laughing out loud.

Now where they are going, just chatting can make the atmosphere on the set lively and bursting with laughter.

Although "The Long Season" is a suspense-type TV series, the set is actually a very cheerful atmosphere.

This is the charm of old actors.

The two people spoke their lines in an orderly manner without any lag. It was a joy for them. The two veteran actors fed each other's scenes, which was even more enjoyable for the people present, as if they were in the audience.

Watch a stage play.

Tan Yue's eyes never left the monitor, with a smile on his face.

"Okay, card."

Upon hearing Tan Yue's words, the assistant director quickly picked up the microphone and shouted "Ka".

This drama is over.

Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan came behind Tan Yue and checked together to see if there was any room for improvement in the scene they had just performed.

While watching, Tan Yue said: "This scene was well performed. There are no problems. The tacit understanding between the two is getting better and better. I don't want to finish the drama so soon."

Ma Guoliang smiled and said nothing. He had this thought in his heart. After this period of acting and in-depth communication with Fan Shan, he increasingly felt that he still had a lot to learn. This was a rare opportunity.

There may not be this opportunity again in the future.

He even thought about asking Tan Yue to sign Fan Shan, but after all, it was a company matter and it was not convenient for him to open his mouth.

Fan Shandao: "The main thing is that Brother Ma took over the job well."

After watching the clip, Tan Yue said: "This scene is over. Assistant director, you go and set up the scene. We will shoot the last scene."

"okay!"

Not only the assistant director was happy, but the staff on the set felt as if they had been given a shot of blood when they heard these words.

Under the leadership of the assistant director, the props team worked very hard, and they would have screamed if they were not still on the set.

The crew of "The Long Season" has been in Yunnan Province for more than three months, and almost no one has returned home, especially since there is a Spring Festival in between.

When they heard that there was still one last scene, everyone naturally became excited and wanted to finish filming the last scene quickly, pack up their things and go home to rest and make up for the New Year without spending time with their family.

In less than ten minutes, the assistant director trotted over: "Mr. Tan, the scenery for the last scene is ready."

"So fast!" Tan Yue couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Teacher Ma, Teacher Fan, you two continue to play together, I'll go over and take a look at the scene first."

After Tan Yue checked it carefully and determined that there was no problem, he started filming the last scene.

The last scene is still between Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang. Although everyone has no doubts about their acting skills, it is the last scene after all. When it comes to whether it can be completed, everyone is still very nervous.

Many staff members standing on the periphery watching unconsciously clenched their fists and began to pray in their hearts:

"Teacher Ma, Teacher Fan must work hard! It's up to you whether we can complete the project quickly."

"So nervous! So exciting! After watching the scene between Teacher Ma and Teacher Fan Shan for so long, I never thought there would be such a tense moment."

"One pass, one must pass! I have been too tanned in this place during this time, I have to go back quickly."

"Don't be nervous. This is a scene between Teacher Ma and Teacher Fan. They will definitely get it right."

Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan, who were acting at this time, did not have much mental activity. They devoted themselves wholeheartedly to their roles and thoroughly enjoyed the last moments of this role.

Every time you play a role, you experience a life, and finishing it means a complete end.

Ma Guoliang didn't want it to end, and Fan Shan didn't want it to end either. In his eyes, Ma Guoliang was the best actor he had ever seen.

Therefore, the two of them cherished this last scene very much. After more than three months of filming, they wanted to bring a perfect ending to "The Long Season".

The recording of a short clip ended quickly.

Almost all the staff on the set looked at Tan Yue, feeling extremely nervous, and some even dared not breathe loudly.

Of course, there are still some staff members who seem to be in a relatively relaxed state. Their understanding of the drama may not be as high as that of professionals, but they have been on the crew all the time. They can still watch what kind of drama they can pass and what kind of drama they cannot.

Give a rough idea.

Tan Yue, Ma Guoliang and Fan Shan checked the captured images frame by frame.

The picture on the monitor froze, and Tan Yue picked up the loudspeaker and shouted loudly: "Let us congratulate Teacher Ma Guoliang and Teacher Fan Shan for completing the filming! "The Long Season" has officially wrapped!"

In just a moment, with applause, the studio became lively.

"Nice! It's finished! It's finished!"

"I would say that there is absolutely no problem with Teacher Ma and Teacher Fan. They can pass the test once and for all. They are so awesome!"

"This is my first time coming to Dian Province. I didn't expect to stay here for more than three months. I was too busy this time. I will come back and have fun for a few days when I have time."

"You don't have to go back to Beijing with the crew. After all, it will be a holiday after you go back. You might as well not go back and save some money for the flight."

"Let's wait until we have a girlfriend later. I don't like traveling alone. It's not interesting at all."

"That's okay, but you may never come to Yunnan Province in your lifetime."

"What you said is a bit excessive."

The filming of "The Long Season" was completed and the work was over. Some staff members also made jokes on the set.

Tan Yue put down the speaker in his hand and said, "Congratulations to both of you!"

The staff sent two bouquets of flowers.

"Two teachers have worked hard these past three months." Tan Yue gave two bouquets of flowers to the two people.

"It's an honor for me to work with Director Tan. This hard work is nothing." Fan Shan looked at Ma Guoliang: "Besides, acting with Brother Ma is a very enjoyable thing. I haven't felt this way for a long time.

Yes, it is an honor for the domestic entertainment industry to have such a good actor."

Ma Guoliang said quickly: "Teacher Fan, you praise me so much. It should be an honor for me to work with an experienced actor like you. I don't know how many people in the industry want to cooperate with you."

The two people hugged each other, feeling a little sympathy for each other.

Ma Guoliang said: "Thank you, Teacher Fan."

He felt that he had benefited a lot. There were many things that could not be learned from books, and even without decades of acting career, he would not have been able to touch them.

"Thank you too, Brother Ma."
