Leave the capital and take the G4 highway, passing through Beihe Province and entering the first prefecture-level city in Nanhe Province, called Anyang.

This is a famous historical and cultural city. During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao built his capital here, called Ye City.

The main filming location for "Peacock" this time is in a town below Anyang called Shuiye, or should be said to be Shuiye LC District.

It has a very 1970s feel there, so the crew chose to shoot here.

I also heard that the screenwriter of this movie, Li Qiang, is also from Anyang, and he probably played a lot of role behind the scenes.

Of course, Jiang Xiao had never been to Anyang, let alone Shuiye Town, in his memory. He still had few impressions of the movie "Peacock", and he probably could get a feel for it after arriving on site.

But it seems a little early to say this now. After all, we have to cross provinces and have to travel for seven or eight hours on the G4 highway to reach Anyang smoothly.

At this time, the atmosphere in the car was a bit strange. Zhang Jingchu came to his door before he got in the car. In the end, he was too embarrassed to refuse the senior sister, so he came over anyway.

But what he never expected was that he actually saw Jiang Wenli in the car, who was Gu Changwei's significant other.

What the hell kind of operation is this?

Jiang Xiao always felt that there was something wrong there?

However, apart from him and the driver, there was nothing unusual about the other three people in the car, no matter how he observed them secretly.

Jiang Wenli kept chatting with him and Zhang Jingchu without stopping.

Gu Changwei, who doesn't talk much, occasionally adds a few sentences to express his opinions.

For a moment, the superficial atmosphere seemed extremely harmonious. Only Jiang Xiao, who knew too much, would feel a little weird.

Speaking of which, knowing a little bit about gossip, he felt that he could not take Gu Changwei's appearance at face value.

For example, it is obvious that when Jiang Wenli and Wang Quanyu were still boyfriend and girlfriend, they poached hard with a bad hoe and finally brought the former back home.

There are also various rumors about the scandal between Future and Zhang Jingchu. Even at a young age, he still follows the trend and even used a car to date a "mysterious girl", and was mistaken for the former.

But there are rumors that it is another beautiful young female screenwriter named Yang Weiwei.

That certain AIDS movie "The Favorite" starring Zhang Ziyi and Guo Fucheng, the latter participated in the screenplay, and the film director was none other than Gu Changwei.

There are various theories, but because there was no frontal photo and he was not directly beaten to death, this matter has remained a mystery.

All in all, Jiang Xiao, who felt a little regretful about getting into this car, had spent seven or eight hours on the road. It was not until he finally arrived at Shuiye Town that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that sometimes knowing too much is not always a good thing.

Maybe he just thinks too much and it's hard to say what the future will be, but now, it may not have developed to the point where it's complicated.

Putting all this aside, after getting off the bus, Jiang Xiao subconsciously looked around and found that Shuiye Town was really different from what he imagined.

It definitely belongs to a relatively large town, and it would not be an exaggeration to say it is a smaller county town.

That's fine, the conditions are passable and you don't have to endure hardship anymore.

Although he has no problem with enduring hardship, he would naturally be happier if he didn't have to endure hardship.

Next, because they had been riding for a whole day, the entire crew, after having a hasty dinner, went to the hotel they had booked long ago and began to rest.

Jiang Xiao was no exception, but before taking a break, he took out the black pot he had brought with him from his luggage bag and opened the lid to take a look.

The white mist inside seems to be nearly 90% filled, and it is expected to be completely filled tomorrow.

Of course, this is the second time white mist has appeared in the black pot.

In other words, as he guessed, when the white mist fills the entire black pot, a new emoticon will indeed emerge.

So in addition to "Smart Eyes", Jiang Xiao has once again gained an emoticon pack, which still smells like mushrooms. As for the new ability he has acquired, it is "Gloomy Eyes".

He had already tried it in front of the mirror, and it was very contagious. Looking at each other for a long time seemed to make people feel a little dull.

Then the whole process took almost five days, which was neither too long nor too short.

To this day, nine days have indeed passed since the day he came back, and the time is exactly right.

After two experiments, such a result was obtained, which gave Jiang Xiao an idea, and he no longer had to check it every day in the future.

It's just that because the time is short, he can't control it. Whenever it's late at night...

Well, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's late at night. Anyway, when no one is around, he can't help but lift the lid of the pot and investigate.

Soon, he covered the black pot again and was about to wash up and take a rest when a "dong dong dong" knock on the door sounded the next second.

When Jiang Xiao opened the door, Zhang Jingchu's figure appeared outside.

And before he could ask anything, the other party took the initiative and said, "Jiang Xiao, actually I don't know where I will see Jiang Wenli when I go back."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here specifically to trouble you. Didn't you think too much about it?"

"Of course not. Don't worry, I won't think too much about it."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jingchu knocked on the door to explain to him the reason for the matter.

But to be honest, Jiang Xiao still believed what the other party said. After all, there was no need to tease people about this kind of thing.

"That's good. I won't disturb you and continue to rest. Good night."

Zhang Jingchu, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, knew that it was not good to disturb her any more, so she took the initiative to leave.

If she would come here, she was definitely afraid that Jiang Xiao would have some unnecessary associations. If she lost a friend for such a reason, it would be a bit unfair.

"Okay, good night."

After bidding Zhang Jingchu farewell good night, Jiang Xiao didn't pay much attention and quickly went to the bathroom to start washing up.

…………

The next morning.

The filming of the movie did not start directly. Jiang Xiao was notified by the staff and came to a temporary conference room in the hotel.

We finally met several other main actors from the "Peacock" crew and were introduced to each other by director Gu Changwei.

I got to know Feng Li, who played the role of the elder brother among the three brothers and sisters. He was a fat man, about 24 or 5 years old. He was also an alumnus of Feng Li, who had been in the directing department of the Chinese Opera for several years.

It seems that the other party is also filming for the first time, so he can be considered a new actor.

Then, Jiang Xiao also met Huang Meiying and Zhao Weiyi, two senior actors who played the roles of the mother and father of the three brothers and sisters respectively.

It's also a coincidence that the latter Zhao Weiyi is also a senior fellow of China National Theater Academy, with a grade of seven or so.

In addition, the screenwriter Li Qiang was also present, and he was also from Chinese dramas. Needless to say, the heroine Zhang Jingchu was, he was, and Feng Li was. After all, more than half of the people in the entire conference room were from Chinese dramas.

Proportion.

In particular, the main actors, except Huang Meiying, are all from Chinese dramas.

Gu Changwei, a man from Nortel, actually picked a group of Chinese opera troupes. Is he considered a traitor?

However, apart from Zhang Jingchu, Gu Changwei, and Jiang Wenli, who was also present, Jiang Xiao didn't know anyone in this group of people.

Including producer Er Yong, supervisor + producer Ma Baoping, assistant director Liu Guonan, cinematographer Yang Shu and others who were also present, they were all strangers.

It doesn't matter, there are so many actors and other practitioners in the entire circle, especially the many behind the scenes, who themselves don't attract much attention, and there are only a few whose names are famous.
