In order to film "Blind Well", Chu Qing grew a beard a month and a half in advance. The one with two upper lip and a circle of stubble on his cheeks. He looked how old he was in an instant.

Ten days in advance, he started not taking a shower or washing his hair.

A week in advance, he changed his smoking gesture and must be clamped to the cigarette butt, because he couldn't bear to waste any more.

Then, on November 1, when he flew to Jin Province to meet with the crew, no one could recognize him, including Li Yang.

"Brother Bao!"

In Tai*yuan's hotel, Chu Qing met a creator. He shook hands with Wang Shuangbao, who played Tang Chaoyang. This is an old actor. He used to be a martial artist in Peking Opera. He has filmed many scenes and even played a small role in the movie "Balzac and the Little Tailor".

"Qingzi, I took this drama because of you."

"Oh, you're so kind!"

Wang Shuangbao has been in the world for many years and is very transparent. Even when he meets him for the first time, he doesn’t feel unfamiliar.

After the two chatted for a while, a young girl came over there and took the initiative to greet him: "Brother Qing, my name is Anjing. I have no experience. Please give me more advice."

When Chu Qing saw that the girl was pretty fair-looking, but she was a little bit pink. She didn't know where Li Yang found a newcomer, so she smiled and said, "It's easy to talk, everyone can help each other."

In this crew, he is the superstar of the emperor. Everyone is talking, chatting, and making friends to make a good impression.

After taking care of him, he also recognized several members: producer Hu Xiaoye, deputy director Bao Zhenjiang, photographer Liu Yonghong, and recording Wang Yu, all of whom are quite experienced guys, and they are considered to be the core of the team.

As for Wang Baoqiang, when he saw his elder brother again, he was so excited that he jumped up and down like a monkey, and insisted on playing with him, and asked Chu Qing to slap him into the corner of the wall. He said, "Show me the script!"

The naughty child did not dare to act rashly and quietly rolled back to the room.

The crew lived in Tai* for one night and went to the shooting location the next day. I don’t know how much relationship Li Yang has entrusted and how much energy he spent, so he found a private coal mine willing to provide shooting.

Everyone was riding in a van on the crooked dirt road, with large patches of yellow-green wilderness on both sides, spreading out like a torn rag.

After walking for more than two hours, I was almost overwhelmed and vomited. I saw the painting style suddenly change, and the terrain in front of me gradually grew higher. From a distance, it seemed like I was on the plain. A fortress was raised in an extremely inconsistent manner.

The fortress looked quite strange. When it was opened nearer, it was clear that it was originally a circle of thick earthen walls. It was wrapped in a narrow area, leaving only a ramp in the middle for people to pass through.

The car continued to go in, and felt that the sky was getting darker and it seemed that it was falling a little lower.

Everyone looked around, their eyes filled with mounds of uneven heights, hollowed out in the middle, with small doors open, supported by thick and tattered wooden stakes. Then, one person, two people, three people... bent over and bent his legs, and came out from the doors of various positions and angles like rats foraging, gathered on the half-slope ground on both sides, squatting there, looking at them expressionlessly.

The soil paths are intertwined, weeds are overgrown, and the black and gray haze is so thick that it can be seen by the naked eye. It is like a world of destruction, full of barbarity, wanton and no rules,

Then, one of the miners slowly stepped forward.

"parking!"

Li Yang shouted and pushed the door and got out of the car.

Chu Qing and Wang Shuangbao looked at each other and quickly followed. Wang Baoqiang was confused, but when he saw his elder brother go down, he also got up in a panic.

"Minister Liang, hello, I'm Li Yang." He looked humble and bowed to shake hands.

"Um."

The other party did not raise his eyelids and responded in a bland manner.

He turned his head and introduced, "These three are my starring roles, and I'm still confused by you..."

"Okay, okay!"

Mine Manager Liang interrupted impatiently and said, "I'm just for Lao Wang's face, don't talk nonsense to me! If you want to shoot here, you can, I have two conditions."

"You said."

"First, give me 1,000 yuan a day; second, you sign a life-and-death case, it doesn't matter to me if something happens. Don't let his mother cheat people at that time!"

“…”

Li Yang was completely stunned because he had asked his friend before and thought everything was OK and he could shoot it when he arrived. Who would have thought that the mine owner would temporarily increase the price?

One thousand yuan is not a big deal, after all, it takes up other people's place, but the life and death situation behind it...

He had no right to make decisions for others, so he had to say, "Minister Liang, I'll discuss with them and I'll give you a reply later."

"Hurry up!"

The other party was too lazy to say anything else, so he scratched his fat back neck and turned around and flashed.

When they got back to the car, Li Yang told the matter and everyone was silent. These people agreed to join with an impulse, but now, when it was time to be real, they realized what they were doing and hesitated.

"Well, I think I'd like to change my family. It's not ancient times, so I'd sign a life-and-death case, and I always feel a little funny."

After a while, producer Hu Xiaoye took the lead and made suggestions half-jokingly. He was specially found by Li Yang, with rich experience and a little famous in the industry.

"Yes, there must be other families willing to provide a venue, there is no need to hang themselves on a tree."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately supported him.

Li Yang pursed his lips tightly and shook his head gently and said, "No more, I have found most of the mountain and west, just this mine."

“…”

There was another strange silence in the car, some lowered their heads, some looked out the window, and some touched the director's eyes and moved away quickly.

Outside, there were sounds of coal-pulling mules and all kinds of hustle and bustle, reminding them all the time, what place is this?

"I'll sign!"

Suddenly, the voices rang out, and everyone turned their heads and saw Wang Baoqiang raising his hands stupidly.

Li Yang was very surprised and hurriedly said, "Baoqiang, you have figured it out."

"Isn't it just a sign? Director, since you can find me as the leading actor, I have to make the scene well!" the boy grinned.

Chu Qing also looked at the guy, his eyes flashed. To be honest, he was really confused just now. He was not retreating. Instead, he was thinking about it. If something happened to him and he died on the spot, he would be fine. If he didn't die, he had hemiplegia, amputation, or vegetative, what should he do? What should his wife do?

When he agreed, he was full of passion. But reality was too hindered and he couldn't help but think about it. At this moment, seeing the silly boy holding his hand straight, his heart was like a string suddenly broke... Forget it, don't care.

"I'll sign too!"

Chu Qing then raised his hand.

"And me!"

The third one is Wang Shuangbao.

"I!"

The fourth one is Bao Zhenjiang.

Then there are Liu Yonghong, Wang Yu, and Sun Wei who died at the beginning of only two scenes...

"Uh, I, I sign too!"

Finally, Hu Xiaoye curled his lips and raised his hand reluctantly.

…………

If it weren't for filming, Chu Qing would never have the chance to see the mine in his life, let alone the real work of going down the mine.

This is just one of countless private coal mines across the country. Without any safety standards or protection, the miners working here can get 2,000 yuan a month, but if they die, it is 30,000 yuan.

The conditions are good. According to Li Yang, the darkest coal mine he has ever seen. It is only half a meter high, and it cannot be turned even if it turns. The worker carried a pickaxe and a soil basket, crawled in on his knees, and then climbed backwards out. A basket of coal costs 200 yuan, but he died, and he died.

Due to the special environment, it is impossible for the actors to adapt immediately, so they tried the films in the first few days, mainly for the sake of experiencing it.

Li Yang was also very cautious and was busy popularizing safety knowledge for them, such as wearing safety helmets and mining lamps, strictly prohibiting smoking and mobile phones, because there is a large amount of gas underground, which explodes at a glance, etc.

Not to mention Chu Qing and Wang Shuangbao, even the silly boy Wang Baoqiang frowned and remembered it, after all, it was a matter of life.

On the afternoon of the 2nd, it was cloudy.

Chu Qing stood on the mound and was calling Mr. Fan. He was wearing a light brown coat with patches, which was covered with a red sweater with a washed hair, and his face was dirty.

This is all borrowed from a fellow villager. It is a little dressed and it feels very funny.

Mr. Fan was successful in Yun*Nanman, and received unanimous praise from the group. He was very proud of his feelings to his husband. He listened seriously and didn't interrupt.

He didn't tell his wife, and he would go down the well later.

The two of them were tired for a long time before they thought about stopping, but then they started playing the painful game of "You hang first, you hang first".

In the end, the girl couldn't resist the stinginess and said, "Okay, I won't bother with you anymore, I'm dead!"

"Um……"

Chu Qinggang responded, suddenly felt reluctant to leave, and hurriedly called out: "Baby?"

"Dududu!"

But there has been hung up.

He put down the phone and pursed his lips. Just as he was about to feel sad, he heard a strange dialect coming from behind: "Oh, brother!"

Chu Qing was startled and quickly turned around. Seeing Wang Bao poking behind him with a strong thief, he said sweating: "When did you come up?"

"Brother, how do you know my nickname?" The guy asked back without answering.

"What's the nickname?" he said in a daze.

"Baby, my nickname is baby."
